Three Kingdoms Guo Jia's growth diary

There are lanterns and festoons everywhere in the Kylin Hall, resplendent and magnificent.Under the west corridor, several copper tripods are neatly arranged, and delicious soup is cooked in the tripods.

There were hundreds of high-ranking officials all wearing similar dresses. Guo Jia saw Xun Yu at a glance.

Xun Lingjun was surrounded by several envoys to toast.As if sensing something, he looked up at the same time.

The emperor was in Xudu, and in order to save face, Liu Biao of Jingzhou, Ma Teng of Xiliang, and the small princes of Guanzhong all sent envoys to Xudu to celebrate the new year, and explored Cao Ying's reality by the way.

The envoy of Duan Yao in Guanzhong is still a mixed race of Han and Jie. His appearance is quite exotic. He does not know the etiquette of the Han family. She stared at him obsessively.

Guo Jia followed the servant of the Huangmen to the hall, passed by the side of the mixed blood messenger of Han and Jie, paused, and asked gently: "Is Xu all fun?"

The emissary was born in Xiliang, grew up in Xiliang, and was abstained from horses for half his life. When he came to Xudu, he was fascinated by the bustle and bustle here. Xun Lingjun also arranged for officials with Guanzhong household registration to accompany him around, feeling very cordial.He nodded vigorously: "It's fun."

Guo Jia smiled and said, "Then please stay for a few more days, sir."

His voice was gentle and sweet, and his smile was so friendly and beautiful that the messenger couldn't help but also smiled.The point is: Mr. Xun Ling looked over with a smile and accepted the toast. The emissary's hand holding the wine cup trembled slightly with excitement.

Although it was just a fleeting and faint smile, everyone who saw it was a little surprised: Xun Lingjun, who was always dignified, actually smiled!It's rare.

There are also court musicians singing "Deer Ming": "Yo Yo Lu Ming, the apple of the wild food. I have a guest, playing the zither and the sheng... Yo Yo Lu Ming, the sweetness of the food wild. I have a guest, playing the zither and the qin... "

This was specially arranged by Cao Cao.In the Spring and Autumn Period, the emperor entertained the emperor, and the court musicians played the elegant music "Wen Wang".The king entertained his courtiers, and the musicians played "The Crying of the Deer", praising the hospitality of the monarch to the sages, and showing the harmony between the monarch and his ministers.

After the Spring and Autumn Period came the Warring States Period, where feudal lords competed for hegemony, soldiers were chaotic, rituals collapsed and music was destroyed.Today, the tune of "Wen Wang" has long been lost, only the lyrics remain. "Deer Ming" has been handed down, but it is no longer an elegant music that can only be sung by court musicians. Folk gentry can also sing "Yo Yo Lu Ming" as long as they are willing to host a banquet.

The tedious congratulatory ceremony of hundreds of officials, extravagant palace banquets, these face-saving projects are all for the purpose of establishing the court's prestige in the hearts of these envoys.Let them see the harmonious scene of Xu Du's monarch and his ministers.

The emperor Liu Xie changed his depressing style today and had a banquet with his officials on the throne.

Guo Jia handed the hand stove to the courtier, and made an impeccable salute: "Chen Si Air Force Master sacrifices wine to Guo Jia, and pays homage to Your Majesty."

Liu Xie had long heard the name of the prodigal son Guo Jia, Cao Sikong's number one confidant, a young man who was arrogant, scheming, talented but not virtuous.Unexpectedly, this prodigal son looks very pure, innocent and harmless, and his appearance of saluting is very easy to make people feel good.

Incense seals were burning in the small golden cauldron on the side, and wisps of incense mist were secretly sold out.But it couldn't hide the fresh air of herbs on Guo Jia's body.

Liu Xie got up and walked down the steps, and supported Guo Jia, the arm in his palm was much more slender and delicate than that of ordinary men.Liu Xie thought of those unbearable rumors again, and the twelve jade bead strings hanging from the crown shook slightly: "The 'Dragon Bone Vermilion Red' in the imperial garden will be half open, Guo Aiqing, is she willing to accompany me to enjoy the flowers?"

"Dragon bone cinnabar red" is an ultra-rare plum blossom, with black ink-colored branches and dark red double-petaled flowers.

There are no more than ten trees in the whole Dahan, two of which are in the private garden of Zhaihan family in Yangchuan, Yingchuan. According to legend, they were planted by Zhang Liang 400 years ago.There are five trees on the former site of Yingchuan Academy, which were transplanted by Xun Shu (Xun Yu's grandfather) 80 years ago.There is one in Guozixue and one in the Imperial Palace, both of which were moved by Guo Jia's gardener from the former site of the academy.

This plum blossom is delicate, and the broken branches and transplants always fail to grow, or are affected by the environment, the deep red turns pink, and the characteristics of the cinnabar red of the dragon bone can no longer be seen.

In front of the court full of ministers and envoys, can you refuse the emperor's invitation? The title of "Guo Aiqing" made Guo Jia a little uncomfortable, but he had to take care of the little emperor's face, and said casually and politely: "Your Majesty has this kindness, so I should accompany you."

Liu Xie waved his hand to make the courtiers and palace people retreat, he wanted to talk to Guo Jia alone.

A wise man pointed out to Liu Xie that his current situation is very delicate. Cao Cao needs the name of the court and will not move his throne.Cao Ying's civil servants agreed unanimously at the beginning to "serve the emperor to win over the ministers", and their attitude towards the Han Dynasty was ambiguous, so he could try to win over those capable ministers.If it fails, the situation will not be worse than it is now.If Xun Yu or Guo Jia can be subdued, it is entirely possible to change the status quo.

The flowers are good flowers, thin and thin, vigorous and bony, with a faint fragrance floating.There is a kind of strength of character that has endured wind and snow and is still unyielding.

But he couldn't stand the cold, the arrogance in Guo Jia's bones made him refuse to show a shivering attitude even though his hands and feet were cold.Resisting his free and easy appearance, Guo Jia glanced resentfully at the receding back of the courtier, holding his hand stove, and walked quite fast.

Liu Xie plucked a branch of plum, brushed off the thin snow on the flower branch, and handed it to Guo Jia: "Guo Aiqing is a good wine, official name sacrificial wine, the wine at today's banquet, Aiqing has seen it?"

Guo Jia only took a small sip before being called to face the saint. He was not sure: "Commitment wine on credit?" At the beginning, Guo Xi bought a few jars of wine on credit, and they were very precious. Take it out, drink and sing with Xun Yu and Xi Zhicai, there is not a drop left.

Liu Xie was full of ambition: "Yes, I bought tribute wine on credit. In the past, Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu raised troops in Nanyang without a commander-in-chief flag, so he borrowed the wine flag from the hotel as a commander-in-chief flag, and was assisted by the virtuous minister Deng Yu to rejuvenate the Han Dynasty. Here Emperor Guangwu's credit hotel became famous because of this, dedicated to royal wine. Guo Aiqing's talent is even better than that of Deng Yu, if she assists me, why worry about the prosperity of the Han Dynasty?"

Guo Jia: "Jia is a man of the mountains and fields. He is used to being unrestrained. He can't bear the burden of paper work. How dare you compare yourself with the sages in the wild clouds and wild cranes?" You can drink tribute wine, but daydreams should be avoided.

Liu Xie smiled but said: "Dong Zhuo's rebellion, Cao Sikong escaped from Luoyang with almost nothing. When he first raised the banner of righteousness, he had no more than [-] soldiers. Thanks to Guo Jijiu's advice and advice, he has achieved what he is today. Now he is in charge of military administration. Daquan, those who followed him later did not do as much credit as you, but their official positions surpassed yours, so I will not be fair for you."

Sow discord?Guo Jia was calm and unwavering: "Your Majesty manages a lot of things every day, so there is no need to waste your energy on such trivial matters."

Liu Xie was inexplicably upset, "there are so many opportunities to manage every day", referring to the people in power who are busy with government affairs. He is a puppet emperor, what major family and country affairs should take his turn to waste his mind?Guo Jia deliberately stabbed him in the heart, but he could bear it.Liu Xie forcibly pulled out a smile: "Guo Jijiu, what Cao Cao can give you, I will give you twice as much in the future, and you will be appointed as a marquis and prime minister, under one person."

Guo Jia: I'm sorry, but I'm not interested in being someone else's slave. If it wasn't for the task of calming the troubled times, I wouldn't even think of Cao Sikong.

He chuckled lightly: "The flowers are also rewarded. If Your Majesty has no other orders, I will leave."

Even a small member of the Sikong Mansion dares to ignore the emperor like this!Liu Xie's eyes were slightly red, and he grabbed Guo Jia's arm. Although he really wanted to get angry, the wise man reminded him that Guo Jia would be soft rather than hard, and losing his temper would only lead to bad things.

The grievances of being a puppet all these years came to mind, Liu Xie's throat rolled, and he choked up and recited: "The so-called Yiren is on the side of the water. Follow it backwards, and the road is long and obstructed. Follow it backwards, like in the middle of the water. "

Isn't a counselor who can't get what he asks for like that Yiren on the side of the water?

The look of the young emperor who was about to cry made Guo Jia's heart soften for a moment, and his voice was also three points soft: "Your Majesty, 'My heart is a rock, and I cannot turn it around. My heart is a rock, and I cannot roll it.'"

My heart is not a pebble, not to be reversed casually.My heart is not a soft straw mat, and I can't roll it arbitrarily.One sentence summary: You can't go against your will, you can only refuse Your Majesty.

Liu Xie expressed his solicitation with the poems in "Three Hundred Poems", and Guo Jia also resolutely refused with the sentences in "Three Hundred Poems".

If Guo Jia cannot be said to be used by the Han Dynasty, then another plan can only be activated.

Back at the Qilin Hall, Liu Xie recalled the past to Cao Cao: On the way back to Luoyang, Anji General Dong Cheng and Ting Wei Guo Hong escorted Luan many times, and they worked hard.

Liu Xie announced in public that Dong Cheng was granted the title of Chariot General, and Guo Hong was named Marquis of Cheng'an Township.Guo Hong's younger brother, Guo Jia, strategized and won a decisive victory for thousands of miles, and was promoted to the rank of military commander Jijiu.

For a while, the hall was silent, as if even the air was stagnant.

Sikong did not have military power, so after Cao Cao gave up the official position of general to Yuan Shao, he had to use the status of Sikong to drive and ride as a general.Liu Xie granted Dong Cheng the title of Chariot General, and no matter how slow-witted he was, he could tell that His Majesty wanted Dong Cheng to fight for power with Cao Cao.

However, before moving out of the ancestral system, life and death did not agree to set up a military division to sacrifice wine, and now suddenly win over Guo Jijiu, what is singing?

Guo Jia: I have made progress, so I used the alienation plan against me.I want Cao Cao to suspect that Yangdi Guo supports the Han Dynasty.

Who is behind the scenes advising Liu Xie?interesting.
