[Ce Yu Wen] Broken Jade Zhangtai (Ce Yu Bright Triangle...

.There are as many courtiers and positions as there are cases.

Zhou Yu swept his eyes, and immediately sneered in his heart.

Originally, I didn't invite myself to this half-sized meeting.That is, there is no place of its own.

There is no position of his own, and Sun Quan did not give himself a position, so whose position is he referring to?

Zhou Yu looked at Yu Fan who was kneeling on the ground, and lowered his eyes.

——Of course it belonged to Yu Fan!

This is not quite right.The courtiers remonstrated that it is an ancient ritual to leave the meeting.Now the minister didn't go back, but the seat was given to someone else - what does this mean?

Of course, you don't have to go back.

This Yu Fan must have offended Sun Quan... Zhou Yu thought of what he said to himself that day, "I have the measure to let the general not kill me, but just exile me", but felt a little uneasy.

But beyond that, there is something odd.

There is something to be said for the arrangement of the positions in this hall.Zhou Yu's position is absolutely different from Yu Fan's.Not to mention the difference in official rank between the two, the difference between the two is even more stark.

Sun Quan... What exactly does this mean?

Sun Quan in the hall knew Zhou Yu didn't go there immediately, but he didn't urge Zhou Yu either.His expression was still so calm.

Zhou Yu pretended to go to that position, and when he got to the side of Yu Fan who was kneeling in the hall, he asked in surprise, "Master Yu—what happened?"

Sun Quan raised his eyebrows.

"Central Guardian Army!" Seeing him coming, Yu Fan straightened up and said, "Please persuade the general?"

"Persuading the general?" Zhou Yu asked with a puzzled expression, "What's going on?" He also knelt down in the hall: "Zhou Yu didn't know the court today, and came late, so I don't know what to discuss..." He said After looking at Sun Quan's expression, he continued, "Please tell me, the general."

Zhou Yu's rhetoric is really ingenious.Kneeling in the hall to plead guilty on his own not only relieved his embarrassment of sitting in Yu Fan's seat, but also found a way for himself, Yu Fan and Sun Quan.

"Actually—it's nothing."

Sun Quan spoke for the first time since Zhou Yu came in, and his tone was neither good nor bad. "In less than half a month, it will be New Year's Day, and Quan just wants to call everyone, let's talk about it, this New Year's Day——

"How's it going?"

As soon as the last three words fell, everyone in the hall trembled.

Zhou Yu smiled, and immediately guessed eight or nine points.

The hall fell into an embarrassing silence, Sun Quan didn't say anything, and all the ministers stopped talking.

"I think," Cheng Pu suddenly stood up from the side, and said in a deep voice, "This matter still needs to be discussed in the long run."

"The day is coming soon, let's think about next year's day in the long run?" Yu Fan said with a sneer: "The former master's bones are not yet cold, so the whole country should be mourned, and large-scale celebrations should be banned for three years. Now we have to do the opposite—" Yu Fan looked at Sun Quan Said: "My lord, please think twice!"

Sun Quan sat in the hall with a calm expression, not expressing anything.

"That being said." Cheng Pu said loudly, "But if Suidan doesn't say anything, it's hard to stabilize people's hearts. Last year, Suidan...everything happened at the same time, and life is not right." Cheng Pu frowned. A little more worried: "If you don't live a good life this year, I'm afraid the people will spread gossip."

Several ministers nodded, and basically had the same opinion.

Sun Quan was sitting in the hall, not knowing what he was thinking.

Suddenly he opened his mouth lightly and said, "Master Yu, how are you doing these days?"

There was a sudden silence below.

He slowly flipped through the bamboo slips on the table, and said in a slow voice, "You look pretty good."

Zhou Yu knelt in the hall, obviously feeling the chill in the atmosphere.

Yu Fan was beside Zhou Yu, obviously feeling cold sweat coming down his head.

"Where's the Central Guard Army?" Sun Quan fiddled with the bamboo slips, without looking at Zhou Yu, but the words were obviously addressed to Zhou Yu: "How are you doing recently?"

Zhou Yu smiled wryly in his heart.Good guy, finally nodded.

"...Thank you, Lord, for your concern." Zhou Yu cupped his hands and said, "Gong Jin is fine."

Before Sun Quan could answer, he heard another voice interjected. "Central Guardian Army," the man said in a loud voice, "I have heard that Zhou Lang has a strategy and insight, and he is a hero." He looked at Zhou Yu, stroked his beard and said, "I don't know... what do you think of the Central Guardian Army?" ?”

——It was Cheng Pu.

The meaning of these words, if you don't carefully taste... no.It seems to be just a question, but the hostility inside is already obvious.

Zhou Yu lowered his eyes, thinking badly.

At that time, Bo Fu passed away, Wen entrusted Zhang Zhao, and Wu entrusted himself.Cheng Pu was not mentioned, which is quite subtle.Thinking that he is also a veteran of one party, and has fought countless battles, it is impossible for Bo Fu not to mention him.

Not mentioned, of course there is a reason.I'm afraid... Zhou Yu's heart paused. I'm afraid Bofu had already expected this day.

He knew that one day, Cheng Pu would attack him.If the two work together, I am afraid there will be many conflicts.

What should come must come.Zhou Yu sighed in his heart, and couldn't hide.

"That's it..." After Zhou Yu thought for a while, doubts surfaced on his face: "...Gong Jin dare not make rash comments."

"It doesn't matter." Sun Quan raised his voice slightly at this moment, then looked at Zhou Yu and said, "The Central Guardian Army can speak freely."

Zhou Yu met his gaze, and the two of them just watched.

silent.silent.

Silent as dead.

ten.

I don't know how long I watched it, Zhou Yu suddenly smiled and said: "Then Gong Jin will talk about it. You are laughing."

Several ministers echoed a few words, Zhou Yu looked at Yu Fan, and said slowly:

"Gongjin thinks..." He paused and said, "Master Yu's words are not inappropriate."

"……Oh?"

"The mourning of the whole country is an ancient ritual." He cupped his hands and said, "To win the hearts of the people, you can't be like King Xiang who burned and killed, and you can't be like Liu Ji who was unfilial. If the lord doesn't express the reason for the former lord... I'm afraid it will be unavoidable You will get a reputation for being unfilial."

Several courtiers nodded at the table.

Sun Quan looked at me, threw the bamboo slips on the table and said, "That makes sense. Continue."

Zhou Yu cupped his hands and continued to say in a deep voice: "But New Year's Day is the end of the year and the beginning of the year, the summary of the year and the beginning of the year. There is no beginning to talk about the future. If this year's day is really clear The water is tasteless, so..." Zhou Yu smiled and said, "So this year's New Year's Day...should be 'subtract and add, and keep and make up'."

"Oh?" Sun Quan looked at Zhou Yu and said with a smile, "What does the Central Guard think about 'reducing and adding, and retaining and supplementing'?"

The hall fell silent, and all the ministers were listening to Zhou Yu's speech.

Zhou Yu looked around, and then said calmly, "Everyone understands the method of [reduction]. In the past, there would be some entertainment and entertainment programs in court...I'm afraid we will have to restrain ourselves a little this year." He looked at Sun Quan, but Sun Quan didn't express anything special. "This is reasonable in terms of etiquette. The saved funds can also be used for other purposes."

"'Keep it for other purposes'?" Cheng Pu said indifferently: "I don't know where the Central Guards want to keep it for use?"

"Haha, Cheng Gong asked a good question." Zhou Yu smiled heartily, and then continued: "This is the second step, the way of [adding]."

"'Add'?" Huang Gai asked, "Where should it be added?"

Zhou Yu cupped his hands, his eyes turned cold, the smile on his face disappeared, and he said seriously: "Join the army."

The hall was stunned for a moment, and then immediately echoed.

"Chaozhong's restraint, it is Chaozhong, you and me." Zhou Yu said in a deep voice: "It doesn't matter if you and I restrain. But—" he suddenly raised his head and looked at Sun Quan: "But please don't forget Soldiers who charge forward on the battlefield. Stabilizing the morale of the army is the foundation and the key. Every inch of land in Jiangdong has their blood, and these soldiers have been treated badly——Jiangdong is bound to be like an overturned egg...there will be no tomorrow!"

Sun Quan looked at Zhou Yu and suddenly smiled.

"The Central Guardian Army said it well." He said loudly, "It coincides with Quan."

Zhou Yu's heart moved slightly, thinking that this kid Zhongmou is really getting more and more ruthless.Still not showing any signs of expression on his face, he leaned over and thanked him without saying a word.

"As expected of Zhou Lang," Cheng Pu said suddenly, "Fang Junjie really amazes me!"

——Now that he heard Cheng Pu making things difficult, Zhou Yuquan pretended not to listen, and did not say a word in the hall.Sun Quan didn't look at Cheng Pu, but looked at Zhou Yu and said, "Then what about 'stay' and 'make up'?"

"The way to stay is to worship ancestors."

Sun Quan raised his eyebrows.

"Ancestor worship is an ancient ceremony every New Year's Day, and it has always been a major event that cannot be ignored." Zhou Yu said in a deep voice: "—but this year's ancestor worship has an unusual meaning."

That means... is self-explanatory.

"The first lord has just left. Worshiping ancestors can be a good name for the lord's filial piety, and it can win people's hearts. Everyone knows the importance of people's hearts, which is the foundation of the country."

All the ministers in the hall nodded in agreement, and Sun Quan smiled and said, "That makes sense. Then—what about this last 'supplement'?"

When Zhou Yu heard this, he suddenly fell down.

All the officials were shocked, Sun Quan slightly raised his eyebrows and said, "What is this?"

"...The way of [replenishing] is different from the previous ones." Zhou Yu said, "The way of [replenishing] is a dangerous move."

Everyone was stunned, and then Cheng Pu asked: "What do you mean by the Central Guardian Army's words, and what exactly is [replenishment]?"

Zhou Yu straightened up, his gaze was as fixed as a rock, and he looked straight at Sun Quandao, and said for a long time, "...just now I talked about the way of [retaining], what is left is sacrifice; this way of [repair], what is mended is also sacrifice." After finishing speaking, he raised his head, amplified his voice, and said word by word: "The way of [replenishing] that Gong Jin said is to make up——

"Sacrifice to heaven."

There was an uproar.

"Central Guardian Army!" Cheng Pu was the first one to call out. He glared and said, "The Central Guardian Army is confused?! With the current situation, you don't know what the lord's [sacrifice to heaven] means." !"

"Gongjin knows." Zhou Yu looked at Sun Quan, and said neither humble nor overbearing: "Gongjin is very clear-sacrificing to the sky on the New Year's Day is an ancient ceremony. The ceremony of offering sacrifices to the sky is to pray for good weather and prosperity in the coming year. It has always been a must for the monarch. It is also a good way to stabilize the hearts of the people."

——Sacrificing to heaven means offering sacrifices to heaven.

But this sacrifice to heaven has always been done by only one person.

——That is the Son of Heaven, the Son of Heaven.

"Once the lord of Jiangdong performs the ceremony of sacrifice to heaven, doesn't that mean that he will directly challenge the north?" Cheng Pu reprimanded: "The Han Dynasty is controlled by the Cao thief. If you are not careful, you will go to war!" He pointed Zhou Yu said, "Zhou Lang...be careful with what you say!"

eleven.

When Guo Jia was woken up by the splash of water, it was already noon the next day.

"Master Guo," said a prison officer in red in front of him, "Why are you doing this?"

Guo Jia's ears were buzzing, he looked up at him, and then sneered silently.

"Don't be polite to him." A topless prison officer came over with a whip, tapped his face and said, "Master Guo, let's ask you again politely." He lowered his voice and said harshly: "——Who ordered you?"

Guo Jia didn't speak.

"We have made it very clear." The red-clothed prison officer said slowly: "Isn't it just a name? As soon as you open your mouth, the prime minister will let you out immediately. Just pretend that nothing happened this time, and you continue to be your boss." Senior officer, those who love food and drink spicy food, why should they suffer this crime here." The red-clothed prison officer said earnestly, "Don't you think so?"

Guo Jia was tied to a frame and had whip wounds all over his body.After listening to the prison officer in red, his eyelids moved slightly, then he slowly raised his head and said, "Really?"

The prison officer in red nodded quickly and said, "It's absolutely true!"

After hearing this, Guo Jia slowly closed his eyes.

After all, he didn't believe in himself.

... That's all.He laughed at himself, he followed him for so many years, his suspicion...doesn't he know.

After a long pause, he slowly said, "...water..."

"Okay, okay." Seeing that he was interested, the red-clothed prison officer hurried back to bring water.Another topless prison officer came over and said, "It's all right now. Look at the prime minister and see how heavy you are—come, tell me who it is."

Guo Jia lowered his head weakly, and saw the whip that the naked prison officer was carrying.

... Ah, so familiar.He thought about it, and then suddenly realized.Ah, isn't it the one who whipped himself 64 yesterday?

The prison officer in red hurriedly handed over the water, and Guo Jia drank it slowly, and at the end took a calm mouthful.The naked prison officer approached and asked, "Who is it?"

Guo Jia raised his head slowly, looked at him, and didn't speak.

There was a moment of silence in the cell.

Suddenly he sprayed water on the prison officer's face, and said with a sneer, "Who is it?" He looked at the stunned prison officer and laughed loudly: "Your old lady!"

"Damn it!" The naked prison officer slapped him across the face, and Guo Jia suddenly felt a bit fishy and sweet in his mouth. "Dare to lie to me?! You find a smoke!"

The next moment, the whip soaked in salt water hit Guo Jia's body, and the unhealed wound split open again, and the pain began to burn.

The sound of whipping was endless, and the severe pain continued, but the consciousness had already begun to blur.

It hurts... He grinned, and suddenly remembered the soft couch he had been sleeping on.

That day when Xun Yu left for less than half a stick of incense, he was brought here by many officers and soldiers.

Then he asked to see Cao Cao countless times, but was refused.

...It is also a matter of course.

Guo Jia laughed at himself, thinking that he was extremely ridiculous.

"Ah!" Suddenly the whip was especially heavy, Guo Jia woke up suddenly, and couldn't help the pain.The naked prison officer pinched his face, frowned and said, "Don't you think you're not asking for trouble?" He shook his head and said, "Why didn't you say it?!"

Guo Jia was dizzy from being shaken by him, and it took him a long time to concentrate his eyes. "...I've already said it." He grinned, "Call Cao Cao...he's here, I'll tell you right away."

"You kid still dare to call the prime minister by his first name! You are tired of your life!" The naked prison officer raised his eyebrows and whipped him again: "You still want the prime minister to come?! You still treat it as before. The two of us respect you as 'Master Guo', you really think you are good!" The prison officer flicked his whip and said with a sneer, "Now—"

"What's the matter?"

Suddenly there was a clear voice from outside the door, the prison door chain rang a few times, and then a person walked in.

Light-colored robes, as light as snow.

It's Xun Yu.

Guo Jia glanced at him indifferently, then turned his head silently.

Xun Yu walked in slowly, then frowned and said, "How can it be done like this?" Seeing the two prison officers not saying a word, he said, "Is there a measure?"

Seeing this, the prison officer immediately knelt down and begged for mercy.Xun Yu waved his hand, frowned and said, "Back off."

The two prison officers scrambled away, and the prison door slammed.

Guo Jia still closed his eyes, tilted his head and refused to look at him.

"Fengxiao." Xun Yu said softly, "Speak clearly to him."

Guo Jiaquan pretended not to hear, and did not respond at all.

"Why do you have to do this?" Xun Yu frowned and said, "Why bother?"

Guo Jia closed his eyes in silence for a while, then slowly opened them.

"Call Cao Cao."

Xun Yu frowned slightly.

"Call Cao Cao." He turned to look at him with cold eyes. "He's here, I'll tell."

"...I will tell him." Xun Yu said softly, "But..."

"Are you wondering if he will come?" There was a sneering smile on Guo Jia's lips: "Don't worry. He will definitely come."

Xun Yu was silent.

The two were silent for a while, then Guo Jia suddenly said, "What are you doing here?"

Xun Yu said softly, "Of course I came to see you." After that, he reached out to help Guo Jiali undress, but he refused. "Help me get that crossbow bolt." He said in a deep voice, "It's under the pillar of the side hall where I'm under house arrest."

Xun Yu paused for a while, then said, "Okay."

Guo Jia raised his eyebrows and smiled and said, "Don't you ask me what I'm going to do with it?"

Xun Yu shook his head and said, "I won't ask."

"Are you not afraid that I will assassinate your prime minister with that crossbow?"

Xun Yu looked up at him for a while, then turned around silently and walked towards the door.

Guo Jiazheng felt that he was making fun of himself, but he heard that familiar voice coming from the door. "Fengxiao," Xun Yu slightly tilted his head and said, "You don't know how to do it."

Guo Jia glanced at him, and then said nothing.

The prison door slammed, and he was left alone.

twelve.

"How did Cheng Gong say that?" Zhou Yu sneered, "If there is no good reason, how could Gong Jin put Jiang Dong on the blade?" To be a minister, to be controlled by that Cao thief—or to achieve a hegemony and revitalize Jiangdong?!"

"Naturally, it will become a hegemony!" Huang Gailang said, "Although I say that, I'm afraid—"

"General Gongfu is too worried." Zhou Yu said, "Gongjin will naturally have a reason for doing this."

"Then the Central Guards are talking about it!" Cheng Pulang said: "It will also let the few of us learn a lot and open our eyes!"

Although this is said bluntly, it does make sense.Seeing someone agreeing, Zhou Yu smiled lightly, then cupped his hands at Sun Quan in the hall and said, "My lord...Gong Jin asks for a word."

"Presumptuous!" Cheng Pu immediately yelled loudly, but Sun Quan didn't even show any surprise. "Sure." He waved his hand and said, "Quan must listen respectfully."

Zhou Yu smiled, saluted, and then went to Sun Quan's side and whispered a few words.

The hall instantly became extremely quiet, and no one spoke.But Zhou Yu suppressed it deliberately, so no one heard it.

After a while, after Zhou Yu finished speaking, Sun Quan raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Then what should he do?"

Zhou Yu shook his head, didn't speak, just smiled.After laughing, he arched his hands and went down.

Sun Quan looked at Zhou Yu, but said nothing.He thought for a moment with his chin in his hand, and then suddenly smiled.

"It's Jiangdong's great fortune to be a hero like Zhou Lang!" He stood up and waved his hand and said, "Quan Jue Gongjin's words are very true, [minus] [add] [stay] [make up] four ways are the best select.

"On the day of New Year's Day, a ceremony to sacrifice to heaven will be held."

His Highness was taken aback.

"In that case, let's divide this matter up today." He motioned to Zhang Zhao and said, "Leave it to Chang Shi."

Zhang Zhao bowed his hands and took the order, then turned around and assigned tasks concisely, clarified the regulations, and all the officials took orders.Sun Quan glanced at Zhang Zhao, then at Zhou Yu, and left from the side of the hall.Not a word was spoken.

When Sun Quan went down from the side of the hall, almost everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhou Yu stood for a while, then turned around to leave.The officials on both sides were hesitant to speak, with hesitant expressions.

"Central Guardian Army!" After Zhang Zhao assigned the task, Cheng Pu stood up and walked to Zhou Yu and said, "What did you say to the lord just now! You let the lord make such a stupid decision!"

"How did Mr. Cheng know that this was a wrong decision?" Zhou Yu said calmly, "There must be a reason for doing this."

"Why can't you let me wait to hear it!" Cheng Pu always felt that Zhou Yu was young and inexperienced, so he raised his eyebrows and said angrily: "Gong Jin is so inhumane!"

Zhou Yu glanced at him, then smiled slightly.

"It will be clear in a short time." Zhou Yu cupped his hands and said, "Gongjin still has something to do... let's go first." After saying that, he left.

When passing by Yu Fan, he stared at him.

Yu Fan understood and responded sharply.

Sun He was completely dark, and seemed to have glanced this way, stood in the corner holding his sword for a while, and then left quietly.

Outside the hall, there was a piece of plain snow, lit with some gorgeous red.

New Year's Day is coming.

When it came to Shenshi, there were fewer and fewer people, and Yu Fan went to the place where he wrote to Zhou Yu last time to discuss with Zhou Yu.The inner room was backlit, and it was dark inside, even if candles were lit, it was not very bright.Yu Fan went in, Zhou Yu looked up at him, and then motioned him to sit opposite Sun Quan.

"What's going on today?" Zhou Yu asked, "It's such a big mess."

"It's not too big." Yu Fan smiled lightly: "It's all in the calculation."

Zhou Yu suddenly remembered the sentence that Yu Fan once said to him, "I have the measure to let him not kill me but exile me", but he felt uneasy. "Tell me about the process," Zhou Yu frowned slightly: "Otherwise I—"

"You don't have to worry about it." Yu Fan shook his head and said, "Zhongxiang has his own measure."

Zhou Yu rested his chin and thought for a while, then raised his head to look at Yu Fan and said, "I believe in you."

Yu Fan nodded slightly.

"But you must be careful." Zhou Yu said in a deep voice, "When we fail to achieve our goal, we still have to reduce all losses."

Yu Fan nodded, and the two of them didn't speak any more.

Sun He was still leaning in the corner without making a sound, with his chest bowed and a sword in his arms.

"That letter...can you find out who wrote it?"

"..." Zhou Yu shook his head and said, "This person...at least he is not in court."

"Oh?"

"I have seen the handwriting of these people in the court." Zhou Yu said in a deep voice, "And they have no motive."

"Then who do you have?"

"...This..." Zhou Yu held his chin and said for a long time, "Yes, there is."

Yu Fan raised his eyebrows.

"As for whether it is..." There was a slight light in his eyes: "It will be clear in time."

Thirteen.

Guo Jia was looking at him.

There is nothing in the eyes.

It was ten years ago when I met Cao Cao for the first time.At that time, he was standing in the hall, condescending, not angry but powerful, with a wry smile, he was naturally domineering.

That is indeed the lord he has been looking for, the lord of his whole life.

That day Cao Cao picked Guo Jia's chin in the empty hall, met his eyes and smiled and said, "Tonight, how are you?"

——Cao Cao was quite gentle that night.The moment he entered, Guo Jia retaliated and grabbed Cao Cao's back, leaving several shocking bloodstains.Cao Cao raised his eyebrows when he was caught, but he still kept laughing with his lips raised.

Guo Jia was terrified by his laughter, so she gasped and asked him, why are you laughing.

Cao Cao laughed even harder, and supported his waist and straightened it up, you are so tight here.

That night until Guo Jia passed out at the end, Cao Cao didn't give a reason.just laughing.

Guo Jia still remembers that smile to this day.

Since then, it can be said that Guo Jia has been with him day and night.

When marching, give advice and advice, and when hunting, drive by the side of the horse.There is a seat in the morning, and sleep together when resting.Occasionally, when seeing a good scene, Cao Cao casually said a few poems, and Guo Jia could sing along to the tune.With his naturally good voice, his tunes are mellow and clear, full of charm.Handsome and unrestrained, without the slightest wind and dust,

Cao Cao liked it so much that he often asked him to sing.Guo Jia said that he suffered a great loss, and would ask Cao Cao for a priceless treasure as a reward before every singing.Sometimes what he asks for is really a treasure that is hard to buy, Cao Cao is not annoyed, and will give what he wants.I only think that all the treasures in the world are gathered here, just to listen to Guo Jia's casual tune.

——Cao Cao has nothing to choose from Guo Jia.

When Guo Jia celebrated his birthday, Cao Cao held a big banquet, entertained his ministers, sang and danced all night, and never returned home until he was drunk.At that time, Guo Jia was still a counselor, but the ostentation of his birthday could be compared with that of princes and nobles.That night, Guo Jia didn't drink any alcohol, but Cao Cao was very drunk.When the guests were watching the song and dance below, Cao Cao staggered up to Guo Jia and hugged him.

In the dim night, on the dimly lit terrace, only the fluttering dancer's sleeves, and Cao Cao hugged him tightly, whimpering and inaudible words.

Many years later, when Guo Jia thinks about that night again, he will always think about what he said when he hugged his neck at that time.

He asked Cao Cao, Cao Cao laughed and said, I forgot——Feng Xiao can guess for himself?

Guo Jia was very angry and refused to ask any more questions, but he couldn't stop thinking in his heart.

He couldn't forget the strength with which he hugged him.He also couldn't forget Cao Cao's hot eyes at that time.

But now, the same pair of eye sockets were filled with distrust and suspicion, scrutinizing him coldly, right in front of him.

"Master Guo," Cao Cao asked the people around to retreat, and sneered at Guo Jia, "Didn't you ask for the truth? The truth is here now. Didn't you say that as long as the truth comes, you will be accepted?" Who ordered the assassination of the truth?" He looked at Guo Jia with disdain in his eyes: "The truth is here, what do you say?"

Guo Jia looked at him, but didn't say anything.

After a long time, he also sneered and said, "What do you want me to do?" He raised his eyebrows and said, "—to torment you."

"..." Cao Cao looked into Guo Jia's eyes, laughed for a long while and said, "Stupid! The truth is that it is a blessing, and it is beneficial to go to any place in the world. Of course, it is as simple as picking something out of a bag. Why do you say [tossing]?" ?” He said with a sneer and said, “Master Guo...you must think too highly of yourself.”

— thud.

...seeing...too high?

Just as Guo Jia's heart thumped, his face turned pale.Fortunately, he was injured in the first place, his face was pale, and this whiteness did not reveal any flaws.He calmed down his emotions calmly, and then said with the corners of his mouth: "—That's right. I'm nothing like Guo Jia. Compared with the prime minister with infinite merits, even the ants are so big. "As he said, his eyes became colder and colder, but his tone became weaker and weaker: "So for a person like me, if the prime minister says that I am cheating, then I must be cheating. Then I must be cheating." He sneered, then raised his head and looked at Cao Cao bit down every word: "Prime Minister Cao, are you right?"

Cao Cao didn't speak, and Guo Jia didn't speak either.The two were so silent.

"...If you only want to talk about these things, then I won't have time to accompany you." Cao Cao flicked his sleeves and said with a sneer, "Master Guo, do as you please."

Guo Jia moved his lips, as if he wanted to say something.Cao Cao looked at him and stopped for a while, although he said "I don't have time to accompany him", he still didn't leave.

silent.

"...Aren't you going?" Guo Jia lowered his head and said calmly.

"..." Cao Cao was silent for a moment, then said for a while, "Why don't you say it?"

Guo Jia turned his head away, looked down at him, and refused to answer.He struggled slightly, then suddenly frowned and let out a "hiss".But he immediately pursed his lips and held back.

Cao Cao frowned, and then saw that the wrists bound by the rope had been worn out by the rough surface, and the redness was pitiful.Cao Cao was silent for a while, then stretched out his hand and untied his rope.Guo Jia was struggling, and then his wrist was stabbed severely, and he immediately frowned in pain.As soon as the rope was released, his overstretched body leaned forward and fell onto Cao Cao's chest.

Cao Cao hurriedly raised his hand to hug him, but accidentally touched the wound on his body, and he immediately gasped in pain.Cao Cao frowned, only to see that the familiar body was already covered with scars.

In addition to the injury he suffered in Nanyang, there were also countless whip wounds, large and small.Without timely dressing and treatment in the cold prison cell, the original fair body gradually became unsightly.

His throat stopped, and he hugged him tighter.

He still remembers the first time he lay under him, submissive but not submissive, making him not want to let go.

That unrestrained voice, straddling the horse, uttered a tune casually, willful but not pretentious, flamboyant and confident.

——now he was leaning against his chest with a pale face.His body was bruised and bruised.

Speechless for a while.

Cao Cao looked at him, while Guo Jia lowered his head and couldn't see his expression.Holding that bruised body, Cao Cao suddenly wanted to let go of everything, tell him "Let's go", and write it off.

Suddenly there was a chuckle in his arms, and Cao Cao was taken aback when he heard Guo Jia sneer in a low voice: "Your Excellency, you must be too careless, right?"

Cao Cao frowned, and slightly loosened his hold on Guo Jia. Guo Jia stood up staggeringly, his long hair loose, but not messy at all.

"Careless?" Cao Cao raised his eyebrows and said, "What's wrong? What can you do to me?"

Guo Jia looked up at him, his face was pale, but his eyes were extremely sharp.Suddenly he turned his wrist, and a slender sharp weapon passed by his forehead. Cao Cao subconsciously stretched out his hand to block it, and immediately clasped the wrist with his backhand.

Just when Cao Cao frowned and wanted to ask him what was going on, he suddenly froze.

——A delicate wooden crossbow fell into Guo Jia's belly.

The person holding the crossbow bolt was himself.

Cao Cao's head "boomed", and immediately looked down, but the wrist he was holding was his left wrist.What he held in his left wrist was a jade hairpin.

——It turned out to be like this.Suddenly, Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia's loose long hair, and understood that he was holding the jade hairpin with his left hand and brushing it across his forehead just now, just to attract his attention.

His purpose was not to hurt Cao Cao.but hurt himself.

how is it.

Cao Cao supported Guo Jia's invited body, and then yelled, "Imperial doctor—!" Guo Jia felt that his brain was buzzing.His heart was also cold.

"...Why?" He hugged Guo Jia tightly and said, "You—what is it for?"

"Why?" He repeated, and then said softly, "Just, just to show you." Guo Jia smiled mockingly with blood on his lips, "I asked you to come out just for this... Let you... see..."

"Why?" Cao Cao shook him lightly, grabbed his shoulders, Guo Jia frowned in pain but smiled more happily. "...Because I hate."

I can endure you and Xun Yu not being able to tell you clearly, I can endure you being three thousand beauties on the Tongque Stage, I can even endure you being fierce and scolding me.

That's the only thing I can't stand.

"Cao Cao..." Guo Jia's face was pale, but he smiled coquettishly: "If you can't get the world...you deserve it."

You deserve it for losing me.

"I'll just... die for you..."

When the imperial doctor arrived in a hurry, the person in his arms was already silent.

He lay in Cao Cao's arms with his eyes closed.The long hair is loose.Just like every morning in the past, Cao Cao saw him beside him when he woke up.

The only difference is that now his stomach is full of blood, blooming like a flower.The snow touched his hands, cold and hot.

Suddenly, the whistling wind sounded in my ears, followed by a pleasant tune.Green mountains and clear water, riding a horse.In sight, his long hair was blown up by the wind, and then he sang casually: The first life is peaceful and peaceful, and the two care about life and death.

In Qingping tune, life and death are up to you.

fourteen.

"quick!"

When Cao Cao took Guo Jia to the hall outside the cell, Hua Tuo had just rushed in.The imperial doctor was helpless, so he had to call him.At this time, Guo Jia's entire face had turned purple, and he kept spitting out white foam.He walked over in a few steps, his face hardened three points after feeling his pulse, then he frowned and waved his hands: "Get out!"

"What's going on?" Hua Tuo raised his eyebrows: "Ask yourself!"

Cao Cao's heart ached immediately, and then he gritted his teeth and said, "I know my fault...I want to know how he is doing now."

"Not good." Hua Tuo and the two boys said with livid faces while treating Guo Jia's wound, "There is poison on this arrow."

There were only Hua Tuo, Guo Jia, and Cao Cao left in the hall.

Xun Yu stood beside him without saying a word.

"Injury to internal organs." Hua Tuo, who had been moving quickly for a long time, said without raising his head, "You have to be prepared."

Cao Cao's heart skipped a beat.

"The crossbow arrow penetrated three inches into the body, it seems to be a deadly attack." Hua Tuo looked up at Cao Cao and said with a sneer, "What did you do?"

"...No." Cao Cao said in a low voice, "—it was him."

Hua Tuo turned around and smiled and said, "Oh—that's you."

Cao Cao frowned, then suppressed the fire again.

...What he said was not wrong.

Or should I say, what he said was right.

Cao Cao fell silent.

"Come on," Hua Tuo raised his head sweating profusely after working hard for a long while and said, "Let's prepare the coffin. I think your little one is going to die this time."

"Yuanhua!" Cao Cao said angrily, "As a doctor,
