At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty

The only thing he knows is that as long as he is still alive, he will not let the chaos last for a hundred years before it ends.

This generation will surely see peace in the world restored again.

Cai Yong was sent away soon, but Guo Peng's troubles did not end.

This trouble, like the surprise, also came from the Chang'an court.

Through Cai Yong's relationship, Guo Peng found out that the Chang'an court appointed him General Zhendong, and Tao Qian's General Anton.

When it was Yuan Shu's turn, he actually conferred his original left general to Yuan Shu, and then added Shiyi, no local official position, and no higher military position.

If according to Yuan Shu's idea, Tao Qian was General An Dong, and Guo Peng was General Zhen Dong, ranking above General Sifang, then he himself had to be General Wei anyway.

In the end, he actually became a successor, taking over Guo Peng as the remaining General Zuo.

Can Yuan Shu swallow this breath?

Many of the relationships between people are bad because of comparisons.

Guo Peng couldn't help but have such worries.

How to let Yuan Shu continue to stay in Yangzhou Yuzhou to eat, drink, play women and beat local tyrants in peace and stability, so as not to cause trouble for himself?

After thinking about it, Guo Peng thought that there was only one way to make Yuan Shu not care about this matter, and even become very happy and excited, jumping up and down to kill himself.

Counting the time, it's time. It's time for Yuan Shu to warm up and find out how he feels.

Becoming emperor is not something that can be accomplished overnight, and Yuan Shu's mind also needs time to heat up to the point of boiling.

Guo Peng quickly returned to Lu County, opened the secret room in his own secret room, took out the Chuan Guo Yuxi hidden in the secret room, and put it in his hand to play with.

Chapter 306 Three hundred and five I will not let you do meaningless things

Yuan Shu couldn't be angry.

For someone like Guo, he couldn't make Yuan Shu angry before he officially turned his back on him. Yuan Shu had to be happy.

If Yuan Shu got angry, it would be a bad thing.

This guy has a strategic vision and certain military talents, but none of them can match his temper.

If his temper flared up, everything would be sidelined.

There is no way, the most important thing is to make Yuan Shu happy.

There was a look of pity on Mr. Guo's face, stroking the clean and moist surface of the Chuan Guo Yuxi, as if stroking the body of a beautiful woman.

Don't worry, I'm just handing you over to Yuan Shu for the time being. Soon, I will bring you back soon.

you are mine.

So Guo Peng called Cheng Li over.

"Lord."

It's been a long time since I saw him, but Cheng Li looks more and more capable, and his attitude towards Guo Peng is still the same as before.

"Well, Zhongde, sit down."

Guo Peng asked Cheng Li to sit down, then took out the Chuan Guo Yuxi from his arms, and put it on the table between the two of them.

"Do you know what this is?"

Cheng Li frowned, looked at it carefully for a moment, and was suddenly shocked.

"This is... the Imperial Seal of the First Emperor? Where did my lord get it from?"

Guo Peng drank a glass of water and said slowly: "Back then, Sun Wentai and I fought against Dong Zhuo in Luoyang together. One morning, Sun Wentai came to me and took out this jade seal, saying that this is his seal from someone in the palace. He found it in a dry well, and he thought it was too precious to keep it privately, so he entrusted it to me for safekeeping, and hoped that after I defeated Dong Zhuo, I would return this imperial jade seal to the Han Dynasty."

Cheng Li was very surprised.

"Is there such a thing?"

"Well, I also find it strange, but I don't think this Chuan Guoxi is fake, so I have kept it until now, Zhongde, you know me, since I got this kind of thing, how can I get it?" How about handing it over easily?"

When Guo Peng said this, Cheng Li was a little surprised.

"My lord, the current situation may be inconvenient..."

"What is Zhongde thinking?"

Guo Peng smiled and interrupted him: "Of course I don't want to pretend to be the emperor at this time. I just feel helpless, so I decided to send this jade seal out."

"send out?"

Cheng Li was even more surprised: "What does my lord mean?"

"This time, the Chang'an imperial court sent people to worship me as the general of Zhendong, Qingzhou Mu, and the governor of Qingyan Erzhou Military Administration, and Tao Gongzu as the Andong General of Xuzhou Mu. However, Yuan Gonglu only got a leftist that I vacated after I changed office. General, I didn’t get any position, Zhong De, what do you think Yuan Gonglu would think if he knew about this?”

After hearing Guo Peng's words, Cheng Li thought about it for a while, and came up with a problem.

"This is clearly a plan, or an upright conspiracy. In order to provoke the relationship between the lord, Tao Gongzu and Yuan Gonglu, and make the lord a target of public criticism, the Chang'an court must have realized that the lord is their biggest threat."

"That's right, this is a scheme, and it's an aboveboard scheme. I can't refuse it, and I don't want to refuse it."

Guo Peng nodded: "There are high-ranking people in the court of Chang'an, but I have no time to calculate them. I have to solve this matter. I don't care what Tao Gongzu thinks, but if Yuan Gonggong is dissatisfied with this, it is very important to me." unfavorable."

Cheng Li also agrees very much.

"If Yuan Gonglu is dissatisfied with the lord, it will indeed be very detrimental to the lord's career."

"So, I'll find a way to make Yuan Gonglu happy and stop caring about this matter."

Guo Peng pointed to the Chuan Guo Yuxi on the case table: "This is the way I thought of."

"The lord is going to give the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom to Yuan Gonglu?"

"Yes."

Guo Peng nodded: "Both brothers Yuan Benchu ​​and Yuan Gonglu have disobedience. Yuan Benchu ​​is good at hiding, but Yuan Gonggong is not good at hiding. If he can get the Jade Seal of Chuanguo, he will be overjoyed. How can he continue to embarrass me?" ?”

Cheng Li frowned.

"This...seems feasible...but my lord, not to mention that if this matter is spread out, it will damage the reputation of the lord, but whether Yuan Gonglu will be really happy or not, no one knows. The current situation in the world is not clear. The Emperor of Han is still alive, so how could Yuan Gonglu rashly proclaim himself emperor?"

Guo Peng shook his head.

"Zhongde, when did I say that I would personally give this jade seal to Yuan Gonggong? Besides, I didn't say that Yuan Gonggong would definitely become emperor."

Cheng Li was even more puzzled.

"Does your lord have any ideas?"

"Yes, I've had this idea for a while."

Guo Peng grinned: "Zhongde, I need you to help me arrange this matter in person, and I need you to handle it in person. We have some dark lines in Yuan Gonglu's army, which can be used. Then, I will give you a sum of money." , You hide your identity, go find those strange people, and get in touch with them."

Guo Peng asked Cheng Li to listen to him, and whispered a lot in his ear. The more Cheng Li listened, the more surprised he became. He felt that this strategy really made sense. If it really succeeded, would it be a good thing?

"My lord, are you ready?"

"No, I believe Yuan Gonglu will not do this kind of thing right away. After all, this is a big deal, and Yuan Gonggong will definitely have someone sober to stop it, but once this idea comes up, Yuan Gonggong will definitely do it sooner or later. .”

Guo Peng held up a water glass: "I knew Yuan Gonggong when I was eight years old, and I knew him well when I was 15 years old. I know exactly who he is. Yuan Gonggong is a big obstacle for me, and it is also a big obstacle that is best solved. , compared to Yuan Gonglu, Yuan Benchu ​​is much more difficult."

"Once Yuan Gonglu oversteps, everyone in the world can attack him."

Cheng Li had an excited look on his face: "The reputation of the Yuan family will be greatly damaged, but the reputation of the lord will be greatly increased, and everything will come to fruition."

After a while, Cheng Li was a little worried.

"But if this is the case, what should my lord do next? If I go forward to Guanzhong to eliminate Li Jue and welcome the emperor of Han, what should my lord do?"

Guo Peng put down the water glass in his hand.

"Zhongde, I won't let you do meaningless things, and I won't make wedding dresses for others. Let's talk about things in the future. Now, as long as my brother Gonglu is happy, that's enough gone."

Guo Peng smiled, very happily.

Cheng Li nodded, expressing that he would arrange everything carefully to make Yuan Shu happy.

At the same time, Cheng Li always feels that Guo Peng seems to have seen what will happen in the very distant future, and seems to have made his own decision, but what is it, even as the number one confidant, he can't make it right now. Learned.

What will he do in the future?

Cheng Li didn't know.

After Ma Rixun left Dingtao County, he followed the guide arranged by Guo Peng and took the shortest route to Tan County in Donghai County, Xuzhou, where the seat of Xuzhou's government and Tao Qian's residence were.

Tao Qian, an old bureaucrat, took advantage of this period of time and Guo Peng fought against Yuan Shao and Lu Bu Zhang Yang in the north to protect him from disasters. Don't live too comfortably.

Without the Yellow Turban, without Lu Bu, Xuzhou is as stable as Mount Tai, but with this stability, Tao Qian is unwilling to be lonely, so he naturally chooses to do something.

Tao Qian wanted to organize a new round of alliance against the Liangzhou Group by joining forces with the prefect of Xuzhou and some celebrities to present Zhu Jun as the grand master.

However, Zhu Jun is still a typical central thinking, thinking that there is still hope for the Han Dynasty, and he wants to return to the central government instead of a separatist place with a bad reputation, and all he thinks about is the imperial court.

Tao Qian's idea of ​​doing something came to nothing. Seeing that the big thing came to nothing, Tao Qian was not easy, so he immediately sent someone to Chang'an to pay tribute.

The reason why Guo Peng was able to think of sending Lu Bu's head to Chang'an to claim credit for the first time was also inspired by Tao Qian.

So this time, Guo Peng made a profit, and Tao Qian also made a profit.

Ma Rixun ordered Tao Qian to be the shepherd of Xuzhou, added General Anton, and granted the title of Marquis of Liyang.

chapter 307

Tao Qian was the governor of Xuzhou before, and he didn't have the power to control the Xuzhou prefecture in name, but now he has it. He is aboveboard and justified.

Not only got the power to govern government affairs, but also got the military power. With the military and political power being grasped, Tao Qian officially became the local emperor of Xuzhou. Don't mention how happy he is.

Afterwards, Tao Qian hosted a banquet in honor of Ma Rixun, during which Ma Rixun talked about going to Yanzhou to make Guo Peng the general of Zhendong.

When Tao Qian heard this, the happy look on his face disappeared immediately, and he felt very unhappy.

General Anton's status is inferior to that of General Zhendong, let alone Great General Zhendong.

General An Dong is the auxiliary military post of General Zhengdong and General Zhendong. General Zhengdong and General Zhendong will not be set up at the same time, which means that the imperial court appointed Guo Peng as the commander-in-chief of the Eastern Front Army of the Han Empire.

So in calculation, Tao Qian was regarded as Guo Peng's subordinate.

How old is Tao Qian, and how old is Guo Peng?

In Tao Qian's eyes, Guo Peng is just like his own sons and nephews, a complete junior and not of the same generation.

Although he is indeed fierce, fierce and good at fighting, fierce and brutal.

But the veteran Tao Qian actually wants to be the assistant of the juniors, what is this?

Tao Qian felt aggrieved by this.

In fact, Guo Peng also knew that the Chang'an court did this with malicious intentions.

Let yourself be the highest Zhendong general, Tao Qian be Anton general, and Yuan Shu be Zuo general. This method of splitting and disintegrating Yuan Shu's faction alliance is very beautiful.

On the surface, it is a friendly exchange of courtesy and reciprocity, and everyone gets what they want together, but in fact, it is disintegrated and disintegrated without a trace, which is not something that a vulgar person like Li Jue can play.

So Guo Peng immediately thought of a rare smart person in the Liangzhou camp.

Jia Xu, Jia Wenhe.

The smartest person in the Liangzhou Group is currently serving as the brain of the entire Liangzhou Group, and has made a lot of contributions to Li Jue's control of the government.

But because he himself knows that this situation cannot last, so he doesn't want any rewards, he just wants to hide behind the scenes.

Hearing why he should be the Marquis of Shouxiang, I only hope that behind the curtain of my life, I will be lucky to have a bald head.

Jia Wenhe is indeed a strange man of this era.

He was always in a place of death and life with a high degree of danger, but it was extremely miraculous that he got a good death and died in bed.

In troubled times, how difficult it is...

It's a pity that the Liangzhou Group in this era has always been a muscular man with well-developed limbs and a simple mind, and there are suspicions that the limbs command the brain. .

Ordinary people kill when they are angry, but they are angry when they are not killing.
