Chapter 755: Shrewd Guo Jia

Xu Shu, accompanied by Shan Huai and Zhang Jing, quickly returned to the Chu Palace, but she needed to stay in the box on the way from getting off the carriage to returning to the Qinzheng Palace, so she was crumpled in a magnificent dress, and if she participated in the ceremony, it looked quite undignified, but at the moment there was no time to change into a new one, just summoned a few palace maids to come in and hastily clean up, and then rushed to the South Palace.

Nangong Qunchen had been waiting anxiously for a long time, worried that they would miss the time, but Xu Shu didn't show up, so the huge team couldn't set off.

Cai Yan, as Wang Zheng's biological mother, also arrived with Wang Zheng for a long time at this time, and the ministers also admonished her earlier, hoping that she would go to see the queen and urge her, but when Cai Yan rushed to the outside of the Qinzheng Palace, he found that the entire Qinzheng Palace was guarded by the spy department, and the queen had an order, and no one was allowed to enter the palace to disturb.

In the end, she was helpless!

can mobilize the spy shadow, except for the three major commanders, only Xu Shu and Wang Xu, no one can do it.

Fortunately, although she missed some time, Xu Shu finally appeared in front of everyone in full costume and walked up to Feng Yuan dignifiedly.

The huge succession ceremony finally began, but the few people who were the parties were not happy.

Wang Zheng, accompanied by his mother Cai Yan, looked a little dazed and a little apprehensive on his immature face, Cai Yan also had a sad face and a desolate face, as if he was going to the gallows.

At this moment, all she thought about was Wang Xu, because with the beginning of the ceremony, the last trace of expectation that Wang Xu was still alive was broken!

The only thing she held tightly in her hand was the bamboo flute she made with her own hands in that beautiful mountain village when she first met Wang Xu!

in her eyes. It seems that it was still that year. That a beautiful mountain village. Green mountains and green waters, little cooking smoke, ducks and geese flocks!

A young girl who is young and in love looks at the man she likes, secretly watching, shy, happy, and excited!

It was the season of the beginning of love, and it was a beautiful time. It's like a dream!

From the beginning to the end of the whole ceremony, Cai Yan didn't say a word, like sleepwalking, if it weren't for Tian Feng's attention to remedies and reminders from time to time, she, a world-famous talented woman, a well-known model of ladies and elegant ladies, would probably be out of shape on the spot today.

Subsequently, Yiqiē proceeded exactly according to the original plan, and everyone believed that the state of Chu had begun to enter a new stage.

Guo Jia saw Wang Zheng ascend the throne today. He was also very touched in his heart, and he even had some thoughts that he was afraid of.

With my talents. Aiming to assist Mingjun, level the world, and build immortal achievements, why do you want to assist such a child?

If this is the case, why not serve the young Son of Heaven in his early years and assist in the Han Dynasty?

In the second half of his life, can he really only be exhausted in assisting the young master, supporting the Chu State, and surviving for a long time?

Guo Jia actually knows very well in his heart that in today's troubled times, the Ming Lord is not there, and what will happen to the young master in the future, who can know? As the years go by and the years go away, how can the desire to calm the world and help the people be realized? I'm afraid that the final result is a corner of peace and hard support!

However, he was unwilling to betray the Lord, and he was loyal and knowledgeable!

Therefore, his heart was very entangled, and after the succession ceremony, he really had nothing to worry about and went home!

But as soon as he stepped into the house, a master guard flew from outside, and said urgently: "Lord, Shan Huai, the spy commander is here to see you!" ”

"Shan Huai?" Guo Jia's expression froze, and his vigilance instantly rose. "What is he here for? How many people did you bring? What can be said? ”

"Just one person! There is a report on important military affairs! ”

Guo Jia lowered his head and thought for a while, and said, "Take him into the study to see me, and pay attention to arranging the guards of the mansion recently!" ”

"No!"

The man's martial arts skills were obviously very high, and he jumped in one fell and galloped away.

Guo Jia quietly walked to the study and waited, and in a short period of time, he deliberated many possibilities, but in the end, when Shan Huai appeared in front of him and said the first sentence, he still miscalculated.

"Captain Guo, there is a military intelligence report below, and you will fight in the first battle!"

After being slightly stunned, Guo Jia then smiled and said, "Annoying Commander Advice!" ”

"It is said that the surrender of the two generals of Wenpin and Yang Ling was not a matter after the war, but an act of collaborating with the enemy beforehand, and Wuyin fell, and most of the other generals such as Liu Xian took the opportunity to break through, and now they have returned to Xinye!" Shan Huai said lightly, maintaining a consistent foreign tone, making it impossible to distinguish his feelings.

"Oh?" Guo Jia's face became a little solemn. "But I heard news from the army, saying that Wen Ping and Yang Ling were disheartened and forced to surrender after the death of the lord, and Wen Ping also made a request, if he wanted him to serve sincerely, I hope that Cao Cao will see his affection and let go of all the prisoners, even some generals such as Pu Tu and Meng Shu."

"It's a fact!" Shan Huai nodded, and said in an unchanged tone: "But according to the information brought back by Zhang Jing, Wen Ping did this in order not to lose his reputation, and he used this kind of behavior to think of the old master, not only gained a good reputation, but also made Cao Cao appreciate him more." But in fact, Taiwei also understood that Cao Cao's plan for Jingzhou in the future was inevitable, and it was inevitable that he would release the prisoners. ”

"No, it won't!" Guo Jia was slightly suspicious, shook his head and said, "With General Wen's temperament, he shouldn't be able to do such a thing!" ”

"But that's the case, whether Captain Guo believes it or not, it's not good to talk nonsense, and his duty is only to report the actual situation."

"Could it be that General Zhang Jing is lying?" Guo Jia asked again.

"We have checked the intelligence of the spy shadow, and analyzed some clues, it is more likely that this matter is true, because Wen Ping seemed to be suspected of collaborating with the enemy before the destruction of Wuyin City, and we have further investigated this, if this is the case, then it proves that General Wen Ping's loyalty is not reliable, and the personnel of the Diannong General Department under his command are also worthy of investigation, and for those who are not loyal enough, they should be transferred from key positions as soon as possible, and the next thing is to inform the Tai Lieutenant." Shan Huai continued.

"True?" Guo Jia asked again.

"It's true!" Shan Huai nodded.

Guo Jia was silent for a while, but his feelings were very calm, and he quickly said, "Got it, Commander Shan still has other business?" ”

"Yes! Someone wants to see you! Shan Huai said bluntly.

"Oh?" Guo Jia smiled, the clouds were light and light. "Who's so angry? Unexpectedly let Commander Shan personally come to pass the word? Is it the queen? ”

"No!" Shan Huai shook his head.

This direct denial made Guo Jia's expression quickly become stunned, he really couldn't think of anyone in the Chu State who was so loud now, they were all understanding people, and he didn't want to bother to say more, so he said to himself: "What does Commander Shan mean by this?" Since it is not the queen's explicit call, can this be understood as your intention to hold me hostage? ”

"The captain is laughing!" Shan Huai's tone was still as flat as water. "I don't have that right, and I don't have the guts, if I want to hold the captain hostage in Xiangyang, even if we spy shadows, we can't do it, at least not now."

"Hehe, Commander Shan is too modest!" Guo Jia said with a smile.

"Whether you are modest or not, Mrs. Guo understands it in his heart, doesn't he?"

Hearing this, Guo Jia stopped being sloppy and said with a smile: "Then what do you mean, where do you want me to go?" ”

"Go to a bamboo forest and see a person, how to go to the captain, and ensure how the captain will come back!"

"How far?"

"Fifty miles west of the city!"

"Must see?"

"Must see you!" Shan Huai's words were very resolute.

"See?"

"The spy will not provide any information to the captain, and this is also the queen, oh! No, the Queen Mother meant! ”

Guo Jia didn't rush to answer, thought calmly for a moment, and then nodded and said, "Okay, since that's the case, then allow me to explain a little, and then go with Your Excellency." ”

"No, Taiwei Guo can only go alone, and don't arrange anything, otherwise if people don't see it, I'm afraid I will disappear forever in the middle of the way, although I am confident that I can withstand Taiwei Guo's interrogation, but no one wants to be tortured for their loyalty." Shan Huai finally smiled.

This time, Guo Jia's face finally became solemn, and he was even a little puzzled, because he found that things were a little out of control.

Inadvertently, Guo Jia picked up the teacup and took a sip gently, as if he was sorting out his thoughts, and after a while, he put the teacup down and asked lightly: "You want to kill me?" ”

"Taiwei laughed again, Taiwei is the backbone of Chu State, why should I kill you?"

Having said this, Shan Huai calmly looked at Guo Jia's eyes and said to himself: "Actually, Taiwei doesn't need to be too careful, how your Excellency should be clear, how the Queen Mother thinks, and what Guo Taiwei is calculating, why be afraid of a mere line?" If I hurt you, many people won't let me go, including the Queen Mother, right? ”

Of course, Guo Jia knew this, and after thinking quietly for a long time, he said leisurely: "But the single commander is not what I expected!" ”

"Now that I'm in shape, is Taiwei still afraid that I won't be able to turn the sky upside down? And spy rules, my family is old and young, everyone is restricted, if I intend to mistreat the princess, the queen mother will not let me and all the family members go, if the captain really doesn't believe it, you can also go with me to see the queen first. ”

"Alright! I believe that the single commander is a man, and you can go to meet that person! ”

Guo Jia smiled, because he had already finished asking what he should have asked, and confirmed that Shan Huai was not deceiving him.

From what Shan Huai just said, his first reaction was that Xu Shu wanted to kill him, but then he determined that this was impossible, no reason, no benefit, no meaning, a hundred harms and no benefits, with Xu Shu's cleverness, he would not do it, he knew this very well!

Then he felt that Shan Huai was impulsive, or that he was provoked by others to plot evil, but Shan Huai's subsequent answer meant that he was very clear about his role and understood his own situation, so in such a sober and rational situation, everything was clear, and the possibility of Shan Huai harming him was infinitely close to zero.

In this way, he confirmed that although Shan Huai did not say it explicitly because of some concern, he was telling the truth.

He was now curious about who he wanted to meet, why didn't Shan Huai say it? It's just a faint guess in my heart that Xu Shu should have some big plan, and the person she is about to meet is related to the success or failure of the whole scheme, and Xu Shu needs his help, so she made such an arrangement......
