Chapter 188 Guo Tu becomes Yuan Shao's comrade-in-arms! Guo Jia leaves Yuan's camp?
"Alright, Brother Gongze, as long as you hand this over to your General Yuan, you can rest easy."
Guo Jia asked Guo Tu for paper and pen, and quickly wrote down a few lines.
Guo Tu took the book, his eyes widening rapidly.
"This, this, this..."
"Guo Fengxiao, you're playing with fire!"
"That's... Ju Shou!"
"What are your intentions in provoking conflict between General Yuan and Ju Shou?"
"Say!"
"Are you a spy sent by Gongsun Zan or Cao Cao?"
Guo Tu stared intently at Guo Jia, even gripping the hilt of the sword hanging on the wall beside him.
It gives off a feeling of "as long as you are a spy, my sword will not be ineffective."
Guo Jia stood up, stretched, grabbed Guo Tu's arm, and slowly lowered him down.
"Relax, Brother Gongze."
"You are the smartest person in Yuan's camp."
"Can't even you see the deeper meaning behind Guo's plan?"
Guo Tu asked suspiciously:
"All I see is your sinister intention to split my Yuan camp!"
Guo Jia clicked his tongue twice.
Then, without hesitation, Guo Tu's hypocritical mask was exposed:
"Brother Gongze, please stop pretending."
"If we want to deal with the huge group centered around Ju Shou, General Yuan alone is definitely not enough."
"At this point, who can General Yuan still trust?"
"Besides the veterans Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Xu You, and Chunyu Qiong."
"The only people he can rely on are you people from Yuzhou."
"If you save Xun Youruo this time, Brother Gongze, he will surely follow your lead from now on."
"In addition, Xin Zhongzhi (Xin Ping) has always been on good terms with Gongze."
"These people from Yuzhou in Yuanying, if they don't listen to you, Brother Gongze, then who should they listen to?"
"In other words, implementing this plan will not only allow Xun Youruo to regain trust, but also make Brother Gongze a person that even General Yuan must respect!"
"Brother Gongze, this is a chance to leap to the heavens!"
Are you sure you really don't want it?
After saying that, Guo Jia reached out and patted Guo Tu's large face.
Hmm! Guo Tu's face is much bigger than the average person's, and it feels really nice to the touch!
"you you you!!!"
"You're getting me into trouble!"
Guo Tu righteously rebuked Guo Jia, but a hint of unease crept into his eyes.
From the first day he joined Yuan's camp, Guo Tu made a vow.
One day, I will definitely replace Ju Shou, the Celestial Dragon, and become the chief strategist of Yuan's camp!
But Ju Shou, a Celestial Dragon, is not so easy to deal with, as he has already stated that he is a Celestial Dragon.
Now, Yuan Ying's Yuzhou faction is facing this crisis once again.
If things continue like this, forget about replacing Ju Shou, even maintaining his current position will be a pipe dream!
"Alright, alright, Brother Gongze, I've handed over the plan to you."
"You should think carefully about whether or not to implement it."
Guo Jia pushed and yelled, driving Guo Tu out of the study, and then pushed him out of the mansion.
"That's not right, Guo Fengxiao!"
"This is my house!"
"Get out of here!!!"
It wasn't until he was completely pushed out of the mansion that Guo Tu realized where this sense of unease came from.
But Guo Jia simply smiled casually:
"Brother Gongze, the General must be at his residence handling official business at this time."
"Go find him quickly, or it will be too late."
Upon hearing this, Guo Tu's expression gradually became serious.
Yuan's Yuzhou faction alone was no match for Yuan's Jizhou faction.
Guo Tu was fully aware of this matter.
It's not that Guo Tu is incapable of internal power struggles.
Instead, the boss behind Yuan Ying's Jizhou faction was none other than Ju Shou.
Although Ju Shou disdained factional strife and did not personally get involved.
But this doesn't mean he would just stand by and watch Yuan's Ji Province faction be suppressed by Yuan's Yu Province faction.
Under such circumstances, in order to defeat Yuan's Jizhou faction, it is necessary to remove another person of sufficient importance from the game.
That person can only be Yuan Shao!
……
General's Mansion
Paper cannot hold fire.
The words "Yuan Shao, the King of Guangping" on the imperial edict were like a slap in the face to Ju Shou.
(There was a typo in the previous chapter. It should be "Prince of Guangping" Yuan Shao, not "Prince of Anping". Thank you to the reader who pointed it out.)
Yuan Shao took the initiative to find Ju Shou and explained to him that this was a trick by those two treacherous villains, Cao Cao and Su Yu!
Ju Shou was very "understanding," and he clasped hands with Yuan Shao, revealing a scene of mutual understanding between ruler and subject.
But only the two of them know what they are really thinking.
"My lord, Mr. Guo Tu requests an audience."
The gatekeeper reported to Yuan Shao.
"Gongze is here? Let him in."
Yuan Shao still liked Guo Tu very much.
He speaks very well and is from Yuzhou, so there's absolutely no need to worry about Guo Tu and Ju Shou getting together.
"Your subordinate greets the General."
Guo Tu solemnly bowed to Yuan Shao.
Besides his eloquence, Guo Tu also pays great attention to etiquette.
As the saying goes, it's never wrong to be overly polite.
"Please take a seat quickly."
"May I ask what brings you here at this hour?"
Yuan Shao frowned slightly.
If Guo Tu came to plead for Xun Chen, Yuan Shao would certainly ignore him.
The punishment of Xun Chen was mainly a show for Ju Shou.
Yuan Shao himself did not have any principled aversion to Xun Chen.
"My lord, please look at this."
Guo Tu handed a piece of paper to Yuan Shao.
The content is the same as the one Guo Jia wrote, but Guo Tu copied it directly from Guo Jia's. (After being pushed out by Guo Jia, he went back and wrote a new one.)
After all, Guo Tu didn't want Yuan Shao to know that he had a clever distant cousin.
"You're the one who's in charge!!!"
Yuan Shao abruptly tore up the paper, panting heavily.
For a moment, I was quite at a loss.
Guo Tu suddenly knelt down and said to Yuan Shao:
"For the sake of my lord's cause, I, Guo Gongze, would gladly sacrifice myself!"
Yuan Shao ignored Guo Tu's statement and stared intently at him.
Guo Tu broke out in a cold sweat.
He was filled with anxiety, fearing that Guo Jia's judgment was actually wrong.
Two two-and-a-half-minute intervals passed, and the study remained completely silent.
After a long while, Yuan Shao personally stepped forward to help Guo Tu up.
"Gongze, rise."
"I am aware of your loyalty."
"I can assure you that as long as I am alive, you will always be my most trusted advisor!"
Upon hearing this, Guo Tu's eyes filled with tears.
He was adept at reading people's expressions and knew whether the person in front of him was telling the truth or lying.
There is at least an 80% chance that what Yuan Shao said at this moment is true!
From this day forward, Guo Tu will be the most steadfast comrade-in-arms of our lord Yuan Shao!
Their enemies are not only the heroes of the world, but also that high and mighty Celestial Dragon.
……
Guo Tu Mansion
After drinking four jugs of wine, Guo Jia fell into a deep sleep with his head covered.
When he woke up and found that Guo Tu hadn't returned yet, he knew that the matter was definitely settled.
But while Guo Tu is secure, Guo Jia is not.
"It's time to leave here."
Guo Jia murmured.
When he said he was leaving, he meant not only Guo Tu's residence, but also Ye City and Yuan Shao's camp.
As for where to go, Guo Jia hasn't decided yet.
But I've heard that things are getting interesting in Yuzhou lately.
This lively event wouldn't be complete without Guo Fengxiao.
