At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty

Guo Peng roughly remembered the appearance of Beibei Wei, so he drew a sketch and handed it to Zaoyi, so that Zaozhi could find a way to rebuild it.

It seems that Zao only took this matter to heart.

The last time I came here, the northern Wei Yamen hadn't been rebuilt yet, but this time it has already been built.

Guo Peng got out of the car and looked at the Luoyang Northern Wei Yamen in front of him, which was no different from what he remembered. In a daze, he seemed to have returned to 16 years ago, when he was 19 years old when he was just serving as the Luoyang Northern Wei.

Of course this is not true, time does not turn back, lost years do not come back.

In the past 16 years, someone Guo has been the master of power in the world.

And he really didn't want to go all over again.

chapter 692 seven hundred and one

Knowing the news that Guo Peng was coming, Guo Jin hurriedly led the crowd to wait at the gate of Beiwei Wei. When he saw Guo Peng coming, he immediately went up to greet him and knelt down in front of Guo Peng.

"My lower official, Luoyang Beiwei Guo Jin, pays homage to the Great General, His Royal Highness King Wei, Great King Wan'an!"

The subordinates around Guo Jin bowed down together.

"King Wan'an!"

Guo Peng laughed loudly, and said loudly: "Get up, it's not a formal occasion, just to come and see, no need to be polite."

"Thank you king!"

Guo Jin took the lead and stood up, and then led Guo Peng into the official office of Luoyang Beiwei.

Seeing the same scene in the government office as it was back then, Guo Peng raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

"Ajin, how is this position doing?"

Guo Peng sat in the mansion and looked at Guo Jin.

"Although the position is small, there are many things to do. Sometimes it is obviously a trivial matter, but I can't find a solution after so many thoughts. There is a reason here, and there is a reason there. It is always a dilemma."

Guo Jin answered truthfully, telling her own feelings.

"now it's right."

Guo Peng nodded with satisfaction: "There is no such thing as the best of both worlds in the world, especially in political affairs. There are always more problems than solutions, and a problem is often not a solution that can be solved by a solution, and the solution often brings new problems.

This requires politicians to keep pace with the times, not to stand still and stick to the rules, to take the words of the ancestors as the golden rule, and not to change them, and in many cases, there is no standard solution to the problem. Sometimes, you have to take the lesser. "

Guo Jin took it down carefully and nodded repeatedly.

"Father's teachings, my son has memorized them."

"Ah."

Guo Peng smiled, stretched out his hand and took Guo Jin's hand, pulling him towards him, making him get closer.

"Father, I hope you can understand that matter."

Guo Jin's mood suddenly became a little low, and he shook his head less.

"What the father said to his son at that time, the son remembers it clearly. After the son became the prince of the Wei state, he was no longer just Guo Jin. Personal emotions can never exceed the interests of the Wei state. If it is beneficial to the Wei state, it is nothing. It cannot be given up."

Guo Peng nodded.

At that time, when Guo Peng wanted to kill Zang Hong, Guo Jin really wanted to intercede for Zang Biao.

Guo Peng reprimanded Guo Jin and asked Guo Jin to go to the gate of the palace to perform political performances. He wanted to leave Guo Jin with a good reputation, create a character set for him and pave the way for him.

Guo Jin couldn't resist his father's request, so he did.

Guo Peng was worried that Guo Jin would not understand what he meant, so he brought up this matter, and it turned out that Guo Jin had already understood Guo Peng's purpose.

It seems that on the road of acting, Guo Jin has already entered the room.

Guo Peng felt that what he left to Guo Jin was not only the huge country, but also superb acting skills and acting learning theory, which was the family heirloom of the Guo family that he had to learn and pass on no matter what.

Sometimes, being able to act is more important than being able to do it.

In their position, whether they can act is secondary, and whether they can act is the main thing.

As long as you can get the right people to do it, that's enough.

As long as people who can fool you are sold and help count the money, that is the realm of Mahayana.

So every time Guo Peng saw Guo Jin, he would give him advice.

"Remember, winning people's hearts is a skill, a great skill. In your position, no matter what you have to learn, it is to win people's hearts. Bad people let others do it. You get a good reputation. Wait for you Once you learn this, you can rest assured as a father."

"Son remembers."

Guo Jin nodded.

Guo Peng also nodded, and then took out a silk cloth from his arms and handed it to Guo Jin.

Guo Jin unfolded it to take a look, and found that there were some strange pictures of villains drawn on it, and the villains on the paintings were doing all kinds of strange movements.

"Wuqinxi?"

"Yes, Wu Qinxi, this is a technique that Hua Tuo has developed based on his experience in practicing medicine for many years and traveling around the world. Take it with you and practice it every day without interruption. It is good for you to develop a habit.

Since my father stopped going directly to the battlefield, he has been busy with government affairs, and his martial arts skills have also dropped a lot. In addition, as he got older, he felt that his body was not as sharp as before. Hua Tuo learned that he had practiced this technique for his father for more than two years. , I feel that my body is getting better and better, and my spirit has recovered, so let you practice it too. "

Guo Peng smiled: "Being a father does not require you to be a great general. At least, you must have a strong body. Your body is the capital of everything. If you want to be a great general, you must be physically strong."

"The son understands, and the son will practice carefully."

Guo Jin folded the picture carefully and placed it on her chest.

"Okay, there's only one last thing left."

Guo Peng stood up and looked at Guo Jin's appearance: "You are already eighteen, and you have also added a crown. You are an adult. Before, you were busy fighting for your father and didn't have time to take care of you. Now I feel that you It’s time to think about the big things in life.”

"A lifetime event?"

Guo Jin blinked, and suddenly realized what Guo Peng was talking about in life.

"Father means..."

"My father wants to tell you about a marriage."

Guo Jin was taken aback for a moment.

"Dear?"

"You have also reached your age. You must do what you need to do. Many people have been thinking about your marriage. You can't be passive when thinking about your father, or take the initiative to let people who shouldn't have thoughts , Stop this thought."

Guo Peng smiled: "Weifu has already selected a candidate for you, and now I plan to ask, and when the matter is confirmed, I will take you to have a look. In short, you have to believe in Weifu, who has done for you The choice is definitely the best for you and Wei Guo."

Guo Jin pursed her lips, as if she wanted to say something, but finally nodded.

"Everything is up to the father."

Same as myself 23 years ago.

Guo Peng was very satisfied with Guo Jin's attitude.

"With this knowledge, it means that you didn't choose the wrong person for your father. If you are willing to give up, you will gain something if you give up."

After speaking, Guo Peng got up, left Beibei Wei, and went to visit Cai Yong.

There is no doubt that Cai Yong was frightened by the changes in the court, and he was very frightened.

I was not well at first, but I was frightened by this incident, and my illness relapsed, and I lay in bed for more than a month, which can be regarded as recovering, but I still have lingering fears about that incident.

Fortunately, his wife and daughters came, which gave Cai Yong some psychological comfort.

As a result, when he heard that Guo Peng came to visit, Cai Yong immediately expressed excitedly that he wanted to see Guo Peng.

At this time, he was able to get off the ground, leaning on crutches, and met Guo Peng accompanied by Mrs. Cai.

As soon as Guo Peng saw Cai Yong, he immediately greeted him, and supported Cai Yong with a concerned face.

"Why is Mr. Cai sick? I was really worried when I learned that Mr. Cai was sick in Yecheng! Mr. Cai, are you okay now?"

When he came up, he just wanted to ask about his health, Cai Yong had a lot of questions that he wanted to ask, and there was not much left.

Guo Peng then babbled again, helped Cai Yong to sit down himself, brought him tea and water, it would be better if Cai Yong didn't know what to say.

chapter 693 seven hundred and two

Cai Yong was full of words and didn't know what to say, but Guo Peng was a bachelor, so he just told the story himself.

"I was also shocked by the matter of Xun Wenruo and Zang Ziyuan. At first, I didn't believe that they were actually trying to murder His Majesty and make him emperor. Only after Gongda gave me clear evidence did I know it was true. "

Guo Peng sighed: "I never imagined that such a thing would really happen. I thought they were just against it, but I didn't expect that they would plot rebellion. Really, it hurts my heart too much."

Guo Peng thumped his chest, his eyes were red, and tears flowed down uncontrollably.

"It's actually true..."

Cai Yong's face was filled with disbelief and sadness.

"After so many years of supporting each other, they actually have to do this for this matter. Mr. Cai, I am really heartbroken, really heartbroken!"

Guo Peng shook his head and sighed while weeping: "Even if they had conflicts with me and disagreed with each other, I never thought of harming them. I arranged them to be officials in Luoyang, so that each other can calm down, so that we can meet again in the future." Meet each other, but who would have thought that they actually..."

Guo Peng couldn't speak, and couldn't speak because of sobs.

Cai Yong's eye circles were also red, his lips trembled, and he shook his head repeatedly, with a sad expression on his face.

"Why is this? Why is this?"

The two grieved together for a while, and Guo Peng said again: "This time, it was Gongda who reminded me that he must have been very sad when he did such a thing. I went to see Gongda. It's really hard."

Cai Yong sighed and nodded.

"Such a thing, no one can treat it as if it didn't happen..."

There was another sad silence.

after awhile.

"Zifeng, are you the King of Wei now?"

"The current situation forces me to enter. If I don't enter, someone will push me in. If I enter, those people will follow. This is not my original intention, but the matter has come to this point, and there is nothing I can do about it."

Guo Peng shook his head: "As the Duke of Wei, the King of Wei, I shoulder the responsibility of the Kingdom of Wei. I have to do this, and I have no way out."

With that said, Guo Peng let out a long sigh.

"Cai Gong, I regret it a bit."

Cai Yong looked at Guo Peng.

"Is it the work of Duke Wei?"

"Yeah, I regret it. If I hadn't been pushed by them to think of being Wei Gong, perhaps, there would be no such thing as today."

Guo Peng smiled self-deprecatingly: "Cai Gong, I found that some things are beyond my control. The more rebellious I eliminate, the more I have to go up and have a higher status. And greater power, so that the subordinates can gain power along with them.

If I don’t get these powers, my subordinates won’t get them, and they will be unhappy, and they will take the initiative to ask me to do this. Although I don’t want to, how can I fight against what the people want? ?I regret it, Mr. Cai...I really regret it..."

Guo Peng clenched Cai Yong's hand and wept.

Cai Yong sighed in his heart, seeing Guo Peng's grief, he couldn't help but speak.

"Zifeng, this is the end of the matter, and you have no way out. You are now the king of Wei, the great general, and the pillar of the Han Dynasty. The rise and fall of the world depends on your thoughts. You must be careful and cautious. You must not be blind and careless and make decisions that are not conducive to the world..."

Cai Yong held Guo Peng's hand tightly.

Guo Peng also held Cai Yong's hand tightly.

"I know, Mr. Cai, I will be cautious."

"That's good, that's good..."

Cai Yong couldn't help weeping, and Guo Peng wept with him. The situation made people's noses sore and their hearts full of emotion.

After a while, Guo Peng cheered up and told Cai Yong about some good things that happened recently, such as where the grain harvest was bumper, where the population was soaring, where there were auspicious omens, and where interesting gatherings were held.
