Chapter 10 Do you think I'm a messed up person? (Thanks to [Ming Ningyun]
In June of the second year of Xingping, Chenliucheng.
Guo Jia hurriedly ran all the way from the house to the governor's house, and found Lu Yan who was working [seriously].
Seeing that Guo Jia was running out of breath, Lu Yan asked Cao Ang to bring him a glass of water.
After pulling it off in one gulp, Guo Jia felt that her burning chest felt better.
He was running like this because he was a little anxious.
Because just now, the Chang'an Shadow Guards, who had not seen any movement for a long time, finally sent news related to Chang'an City!
After Guo Jia calmed down, he pulled Lu Yan involuntarily to a hidden corner.
After looking around and seeing that there was really no one, Guo Jia whispered: "There is news from Chang'an City!"
"Really?" Lu Yan raised his eyebrows and asked with a slightly curious tone: "Where is it? Let's take a look."
"You don't seem to be too excited?" Guo Jia asked in surprise.
"This is an expected thing, why should I be excited?" Now it was Lu Yan's turn to be surprised.
"That's right..." Guo Jia laughed, and then unfolded the letter in his hand.
The letter from the Chang'an Shadow Guard was also written on silk, but in addition to pen and ink, there was blood on the silk!
"Look at the old and new blood stains... I guess it must have been sent out after a lot of deaths and injuries..." Looking at the blood stains of different colors, Lu Yan's tone was a little heavy.
Guo Jia controls the Shadow Guard. He has actually seen too much life and death here, and he no longer has much feelings about life and death. "Deaths and injuries are inevitable, as long as we live up to their sacrifices!"
Lu Yan nodded slightly in agreement, and then read the letter carefully with Guo Jia.
"It can be seen that the person who wrote the letter wanted to record a lot of things, but he was in a very hurry when he wrote the letter."
After browsing through the contents of the letter, Lu Yan sorted out the messy narrative in the letter in his mind.
Generally speaking, Li Jue and Guo Si attacked each other and caused chaos in Chang'an. Zhang Ji entered Chang'an, the imperial party was ready to move, and the emperor frequently requested to return to Luoyang.
"After the emperor returned to the east, Chang'an lost its value." Guo Jia shook his head and sneered: "How stupid can you be to let the emperor leave Chang'an?"
"There may be hidden secrets here that we don't know about." Lu Yan didn't know exactly what happened here. If he wanted to solve the mystery, he might have to wait until he welcomes the emperor.
After pondering for a long time, Lu Yan suddenly said with emotion: "After the emperor left Chang'an, Chang'an has lost its value, and it must have turned into a hell on earth..."
Guo Jia looked at Lu Yan, waiting for his next words.
Sure enough, Lu Yan asked tentatively: "How about we withdraw all the shadow guards over there."
When Guo Jia heard this, his face was expressionless, and his face even turned blue.
Lu Yan thought he disagreed and was about to say "That's all", but unexpectedly Guo Jia suddenly said in a hoarse voice: "No need, they're all dead..."
"Dead...all dead?!" Lu Yan's eyes widened, as if something was blocked in his throat.
"Yes, they are all dead... Even the guy who sent the letter back was just holding on for a breath." Guo Jia said casually, but you could hear from his hoarse voice that his
I was actually extremely sad inside.
These people were all brought out by him!
Lu Yan took a deep breath, and then said something that shocked Guo Jia, "I will personally train the next batch of shadow guards!"
Guo Jia: "Huh?" Guo Jia was surprised at first, and then asked dissatisfied: "Are you doubting my training level?"
Regarding Guo Jia, Lu Yan didn't need to be polite, "I have to say that the dishes you trained are already very good. But I think you are still a little worse than me..."
Guo Jia surprisingly didn't refute, "I knew you were still hiding something... From now on, you can share more of the burden for me."
Lu Yan is not talking big words,
What makes a good spy? Even if you have never eaten pork, you have at least seen pigs running.
With the knowledge accumulated from later TV novels, I can probably give some useful information in this regard.
"If it doesn't work, I'll feed you Dali Pills, Yizhi Pills, and Constitution Pills, etc., and I won't believe that we can't produce a batch of highly professional plates!"
Seeing that Lu Yan did not retort, Guo Jia glanced at Lu Yan and said to himself: "It seems that this guy is really stimulated."
Cherishing the lives of your subordinates is undoubtedly a good thing.
But Guo Jia felt that he couldn't relax and let Lu Yan mess around, so he said: "Let's talk about it first, training is okay, but you can't mess around."
Lu Yan glanced at Guo Jia, snorted and said, "Do you think I look like a random person?"
...
【The end of June, the second year of Xingping.】
[The twenty-eight Chang'an Shadow Guards were all gone...]
[If I had intervened in the training of the Shadow Guards earlier and taught them some methods for future generations, would at least some people have survived? 】
[Forget it, I still have to take action after all...]
Sitting by the window with a notebook in hand, Boss Cao was enjoying the cool breeze, drinking wine, eating peanuts, and reading his little diary, enjoying himself.
Seeing this paragraph, Cao Cao couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, and then complained:
"Did anyone stop you, old man, from taking action? Isn't it because you are so lazy that you feel heartbroken? That's right, it's okay to take action!"
Thinking of Lu Yan not wanting to move but having to move, Lao Cao couldn't help but grin.
[Although the annihilation of the Shadow Guards was not worth it, it was not completely in vain.]
[The emperor is about to return east, should I inform Boss Cao in advance? Let’s forget it and wait until the emperor sends the news himself, otherwise it will be self-defeating and it will be a big deal...]
"Ah!" Suddenly, a scream sounded! "I bit my head...it hurts..."
When Cao Cao first saw the emperor returning eastward, he was so surprised that he bit his tongue. This once again proves that when eating, it is best not to look at some things...
"Mr. Lu has been paying attention to Chang'an for the sake of the emperor???" Cao Cao's heart suddenly stirred!
But the emperor is a double-edged sword.
The rescue effort is naturally a great achievement, and being granted a title is not a big deal.
However, the disadvantages are naturally obvious.
Cao Cao is now a prince. The sky is high and the emperor is far away. He can be as carefree as he wants, and he can be as comfortable as he wants!
But once you welcome the emperor, you will change from a feudal prince to a minister of the court.
From now on, there will be an extra emperor and many constraints on our head.
Some things may not be possible if you want to do them.
Fortunately, the household registration system that is most likely to be boycotted has been fully rolled out. It has been in effect for more than a year, and its effects are slowly beginning to show.
Cao Cao hesitated a little. He wanted to see what Lu Yan would think, so he continued to read the diary.
[Follow the emperor and obey orders! Although no one can give orders except Brother Bei in the early days... But the moment when Boss Cao really took off started from the emperor.]
"I...I'm going to take off???" Cao Cao's heart beat faster than expected!
【In troubled times, what is most important? Talent!】
[With the emperor in hand, Boss Cao is regarded as the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty by scholars all over the world, why don’t talents from all walks of life come in droves? 】
[And Boss Cao can use the emperor’s name to issue orders. If anyone dares to disobey, he will be punished for not respecting the emperor’s order. When the time comes, whoever wants to be beaten, shouldn’t he have the final say? 】
"Damn it! Is the benefit so great?" Cao Cao threw a handful of peanuts into his mouth, then looked at the empty jug and said with regret: "What a pity, why is there no wine?"
But after Cao Cao calmed down and thought about it carefully,
The emperor has not yet sent any message,
Moreover, this matter will have to be discussed with other people when the time comes, and at least the scene will have to be walked through.
[When the emperor is in hand and Boss Cao has many talents under his command, I can fish with peace of mind and farm the land with peace of mind! How beautiful! It suddenly becomes clear!!]
Seeing this, Cao Cao glanced at the empty wine bottle again, then he smiled and threw a few peanuts into his mouth, saying:
"As long as you prepare a few more peanuts, you won't be so drunk! Want to fish? Wait until you really become an immortal!"
