Chapter 193: Virtuous Internal Help
Listening to Guo Tu ask who he was, Zuo Ci didn't say anything at all, nor did he open his mouth to say his name, he just dusted off his body by himself, looking unhurried and comfortable.
"Who am I, it shouldn't matter to Mr. Guo, the key is that Mr. Guo wants to figure out who he is, whether he is on the right path, Mr. Now, he is also a famous family in Hebei, if he is not careful, he takes a wrong step, and he is afraid that it will be too late to regret it in the future." Zuo Ci smiled, playing a mystery and selling a trick to Guo Tu.
Guo Tu's face looked very nervous, but he still said calmly: "What do you mean?" You old man has something to say! ”
Zuo Ci stretched out his hand slightly, and said with a smile: "If Mr. Guo wants to know his deep meaning, he might as well follow the old man to the pavilion and private room to talk about it, and there are masters who will solve the puzzle for Guo Gong, I don't know what the respect is?" ”
When Guo Tu heard that Zuo Ci was going to pull him to talk alone, he suddenly hesitated, after all, he was not familiar with the old man who suddenly appeared, and the two old men got along in the private room, what if this old man had a lustful heart for himself?
But this old man is just a word, directly hitting the secret vein in his heart, whether this old man knows the Tao or Meng, if he doesn't go with him at this time, if something goes wrong, a bad one is the tragedy of the whole family, just imagine how can you not go?
Guo Tu swayed left and right for a while, and finally made up his mind, gritted his teeth, got up and said: "Go to the private room, Guo is still afraid that you, the old god, will not lead the way!" ”
The liquor store is huge. It is divided into two floors, the first floor is the retail hall. The table is less than a few feet away from the table, and drinking is only for drinking. There are few secrets between people, but the private rooms on the second floor are different, the walls of the compartments are thick, the winding paths are quiet, and they are called drinking places, which are actually the places where many wealthy gentry borrow wine and talk.
Got into the innermost part. In the most secluded private room, there are already three people sitting in it, two women and one man, respectively Zhen Mi. Xiahou Juan and Deng Chang are three.
Zhen Mi is still the same simple and elegant, but at the same time has a kind and lovely appearance, seeing Guo Tu coming in with Ge Xuan, without saying a word, he immediately got up and greeted Guo Tu.
Xiahou Juan and Deng Chang were also unambiguous, and stood up to greet each other.
On the other hand, Guo Tu, as soon as he saw these three people sitting in the room, and then thought of what Zuo Ci told him, cold sweat suddenly fell out, and he knew it. Don't look at Zhen Mi and Deng Chang and others on the surface The status is not high, but even the people and animals who are alive in Yecheng know the Tao, these few, each of them has a deep relationship with Yuan Shang, it can be said that they are the henchmen of Yuan Shang's henchmen, the descendants of the lineage, and now these are all here, I am afraid that it is the plot of Xin Ping and Cao Cao, and it has been defeated in vain!
Guo Tu's face was full of horror. looked like he had been struck by lightning, Zhen Mi knew it in his heart, but he pretended not to know on his face, and smiled at Guo Tu Shi Lirou: "Mr. Guo, the little girl and others have lost their manners this time and invited Mr. without authorization, which is really ashamed, but there is a reason for it, and it is a helpless move. ”
"Where and where, who doesn't know that the Zhen family led by Miss Zhen is now a big family to protect the grain and grass in the rear for our army, Hugh said to me Guo Tu, that is, the lord saw the young lady, and also saluted Miss Xiahou is a distinguished guest of the lord's personal order, Deng Gong is the lord's confidant, Guo Tu is just a scattered person, it is an honor to be invited here!" After all, Guo Tu was an important minister under Yuan Shao in the past, although he was apprehensive at the moment, his words were still reasonable, and people couldn't find anything rude.
Zhen Mi smiled slightly, and did not take a step forward, invited Guo Tu and Zuo Ci to sit down, and personally poured tea for them, and the ceremony was thorough.
Guo Tu took the tea handed by Zhen Mi, said "thank you", then turned his head to look at Zuo Ci beside him, and said, "Old Fangshi, you are the master who said that you can solve my doubts, isn't it the three people present?" ”…,
Zuo Ci's face was solemn, with a look of immortal wind and bones, and said: "Mr. Guo, you ask yourself, is it not enough to solve today's doubts for you with the identities of these three people?" ”
Xiahou Juan sighed softly, shook his head and said: "No, no, Zuo Immortal Master is wrong, Mr. Guo's doubts are the knot in his heart, and he really has nothing to do with others, the most I can do is to be a guide, as for how to act in the future, it is Mr. Guo's own business." ”
When Guo Tu heard this, his whole body trembled, and he looked at the tea cup in his hand in a daze and was silent.
Deng Chang coughed heavily, looked up and asked Guo Tu, "Mr. Guo, how many years have you been working for the Yuan family?" ”
Guo Tu put down the wine cup, glanced at Deng Chang deeply and said: "I have been working for the old lord since the first year of Chuping, and it has been thirteen years. ”
"Then in front of Mi'er and Juan'er, the two juniors, tell me how the Yuan family treats you Guo Tu? Pat your conscience and say, don't lie in front of your children! Deng Chang kept talking and asked eagerly.
Guo Tu was stunned when he heard this, and said: "Grace is as heavy as a mountain, and it cannot be expressed in words." ”
"Since it's a mountain of kindness, then why do you want to conspire against Xin Ping?" Deng Chang's face sank, his tone suddenly increased, and he shouted angrily.
Guo Tu trembled suddenly, bared his teeth and said angrily: "When did I say that I was going to rebel?" The surname Deng is not for you to slander me? ”
Deng Chang sneered when he heard this, and said: "Since you have not participated in the rebellion, then what should you say about the plot with Xin Ping!?" ”
Guo Tu was heartbroken, and secretly said that these few people found him, and it was really because the matter was exposed! It's come to this point, let's talk about what is useless and love!
Thinking of this, Guo Tu immediately closed his eyes, and didn't look at Deng Chang, a trick is better than a silence, and Deng Chang is dry!
Deng Chang thought that after several questions, his words were sharp, and he would definitely be able to bear Guo Tu, but he didn't want the other party to be a fuel-efficient lamp, but he simply didn't look at himself, and his heart was suddenly furious! Just wanted to scold and bury two sentences, but was stopped by Zhen Mi raising his hand.
But seeing Zhen Mi wincing at Xiahou Juan, the two of them slowly got up and bowed deeply to Guo Tu, and their actions were very respectful!
Guo Tu was stunned when he saw this. Hurriedly raised his hand to help Zhen Mi and Xiahou Juan, and said in surprise: "Two young ladies." I have no festival with you. Why do you want to worship me? Guo can't bear it, hurry up! ”
Zhen Mi shook her head and said with a straight face: "Mr. Guo doesn't have to shirk, the two of us are not worshipping for ourselves, but to apologize to Mr. Yuan Shang for their sins." The gentleman deserves it, although he is relieved to take it. ”
Guo Tu was stunned when he heard this, and said, "Worship me for the lord?" He is the king, and I am the minister. Then I can't afford it."
Zhen Mi shook his head and said: "No, you can bear it, the two of us worship Mr. Yuan Gong, it is to thank Mr. for the rest of the year for the sin of ignoring Mr. and Ye and treating Mr. Chen's heart slowly, this worship is not done by the two of us, it is actually Yuan Gong's own order, he is now in Liyang Shuai's tent, and he can't come back to apologize to Mr. in person." Therefore, I had to entrust the two of us to do it for him. ”
"Is this what the lord means?" Guo Tu's face was shocked, and he hurriedly asked.
Zhen Mi nodded solemnly and said: "That's right, it's just that there is a reason why the lord acts like this, presumably Mr. also understands in his heart that in the dispute between the Yuan family's heirs, Mr. was a close person to the eldest prince, and he was opposed to the lord, and the lord had to ascend to the throne." In order to appease the hearts of cronies and close ministers, there must be differences in rustiness, there are promotions and depreciations, although the lord is the king, but he also has to weigh the pros and cons, and treat others with himself, but he has not forgotten Mr. in his heart, and has always wanted to reuse Mr. as Hebei Humerus, but it has been out of time. ”
When Guo Tu heard this, he sighed and said, "Lord, I am still willing to use it"...,
Xiahou Juan also said coquettishly: "When the lord was in Yecheng, he often praised Mr. with me, but he hated that Mr. was not with him back then, and even today, he has always wanted to find an opportunity for Mr. Guo to make a great contribution, so that he can be used again, and it is good to block everyone's mouth, how can I not have a chance to this day, but let us find out that Yecheng will have people who are not subordinate to rebel, but it is time for Mr. Guo to make meritorious contributions, and the lord is on the front line of Liyang, and he is also overjoyed!" ”
Guo Tu was stunned when he heard this, and after being stunned for a long time, he finally said tremblingly: "The lord has such a caring heart for Guo Tu, but he hates Guo Tu for being stupid, but he doesn't know it, if it weren't for the two young ladies telling each other, he would still be hazy and lifeless."
Speaking of this, he saw Guo Tu bowing to the south from afar and said, "Lord Guo Tu!" Thank you! ”
Deng Chang was holding a big pen, and said with a disdainful look: "It's a pity that the lord is sincere to you and let you be, you don't learn from the pain, repent and make meritorious contributions, but you follow Xin Ping and Yuan Tan to mix in, intending to rebel, can you let the donkey kick in your brain?" ”
Guo Tu trembled when he heard this, and roared at Deng Chang: "Nonsense! Xin Ping united with Cao Cao to rebel, that's his business, what does it have to do with me? ”
Deng Chang jumped up suddenly and said angrily: "Okay! You even know that Xin Ping is Cao Cao, and you say that you didn't get involved! ”
Guo Tu slapped himself hard.
"Guo and Guo are mixed with Xin Ping, then there is a reason! There's a reason for that! ”
Deng Chang smiled coldly and said, "What is the reason?" ”
"The reason is that Guo Tu squeaked and whined, and he didn't snort out for a long time.
But he saw Zhen Mi suddenly pat his forehead and said: "The reason Mr. Guo said is that he wants to take this opportunity and take the risk of pretending to be an internal response, so as to eradicate these rebellious thieves for the lord in one fell swoop, and completely clear all the troubles for Yecheng?" ”
In Guo Tu's eyes, tears suddenly flowed, and he looked up to the sky and sighed: "Miss Zhen, who knows me, is also!" I can't imagine that my secret identity and profound stratagem will be seen through by you all at once! Miss Zhen, you really deserve to be our No. 1 female middle school hero in Hebei~~~! The eyes are poisonous! ”
Zhen Mi smiled slightly and said, "The little woman is just speculating on Mr. Guo's personality, but she doesn't want to be in a word, so she smiled." ”
Xiahou Juan clapped his hands suddenly, with stars of worship in his eyes, looked at Guo Tuyan and said, "Mr. Guo, you are so great!" ”
Guo Tu arched his hand heroically and said modestly: "Generally, Miss Xiahou has praised it, Guo is just doing his duty as a minister!" ”
Deng Chang looked at Guo Tu with a puzzled expression, and said strangely: "Are you really going to be a traitor?" It's not a donkey to lie to us, right? ”
Guo Tu snorted coldly, got up and slapped his chest on the ground!
"Tell the lord, don't worry, give me five days, and I will definitely investigate all kinds of information such as the personnel, schemes, time, and methods of Xin Comment's rebellion this time, and report it to the lord, and live up to the kindness of the Yuan family!"
