Lu Yan sat on the horse, and his thoughts and reflections along the way made him feel a lot of emotion.
Seeing that there was no one around, Lu Yan allowed Bai Longma to pace slowly forward while he took out the Diary of Heaven's Destiny and prepared to record today's insights.
[The second year of Xingping, late September]
[I was actually tricked once by my own people, but I was tricked so much that I lost my temper. ]
[The long-term success has made me feel a little drifting without realizing it...Fortunately, I have a group of people around me who are willing to remind me.]
[This is how Boss Cao must have embarked on the path of arrogance and paranoia. Unfortunately, Fengxiao was gone by then, and no one could wake up the arrogant Boss Cao. 】
[Speaking of Guo Fengxiao, his insight into people's hearts is still as sharp as before, but I didn't expect that he and Lu Lingqi would set a trap for me.
No, no, it should be more than just them!
If he had not known the situation in advance, Taishi Ci would not have allowed Lu Lingqi to enter the military camp.
Then the only explanation is that Taishi Ci also knew about Guo Jia's "conspiracy", and they were even accomplices!
I understand, Taishi Ci must have received Guo Jia’s permission in advance before letting Lu Lingqi enter the military camp.】
"But do Guo Jia and Tai Shici really trust Lu Lingqi that much?" Lu Yan had some doubts in his heart. "Is it possible that Lu Lingqi has Guo Jia's hidden clues buried around her, so he is not worried at all that the secret will be leaked?"
There is such a possibility, and it is not small... God knows how many tricks Guo Jia, a guy with a heart as deep as the sea, has done secretly.
[Let me think about it... emmm... Lu Lingqi is Lu Bu's daughter.
Taishi Ci, Zhao Yun, Xia Houlan and others made her understand our goals and ideals, and it is inevitable that Guo Jia's promotion was not involved.
But Lu Lingqi’s identity is very special. Will letting her join us bring any benefits to us or Guild Cao? 】
When Lu Yan wrote this, the pen in his hand couldn't help but pause, and he seemed to have a clear understanding in his heart, "No, the person who is paying tribute is not Lu Lingqi herself! The person he is greedy for is Lu Lingqi's father, Lu Bu!"
[Yes, I think I should understand Guo Jia’s plan.
By tying Lu Lingqi to our battleship, Lu Bu becomes our potential ally. Even if they are redeemed by Lu Bu in the future, at least their current friendship will still be there.】
[If Lu Lingqi really becomes a part of Cao Ying, then even if Cao and Lu cannot become allies, at least Lu Bu will most likely not attack Duke Cao again for the sake of his daughter...]
[As for female generals, it shouldn’t be a big problem. At worst, just treat her as a gimmick and not let her lead the troops alone. 】
Lu Lingqi's matter is not difficult to handle. Lu Yan's emphasis on industry and commerce has been criticized by literati.
Now even if there is one more female general, the additional criticism will be just a drop in the ocean.
[Guo Jia used a little trick, which not only alerted me, but also helped Lu Lingqi achieve her goal.
It also made me understand my own weaknesses and reminded me to be careful of traps from the emperor's side.
In the end, a powerful threat was even eliminated and a potential ally was gained...]
[Boss Cao was made a general, and Yuan Shao was made a lieutenant.
With Yuan Shao’s character, he will definitely not tolerate Boss Cao climbing on top of him, so there is a high probability that Yuan Shao will not accept the emperor’s reward, and the alliance between Cao and Yuan will soon begin to waver.]
[Guo Jia must have seen this potential threat, so when the Cao-Yuan alliance was about to break up, he found a more reliable ally for Cao Gong. His calculations are still sharp and can be said to be watertight...]
Lu Yan still maintains a high evaluation of Guo Jia's calculations. If the background board was not his, he would even give Guo Jia full marks.
However, Lu Yan still attaches great importance to the information Guo Jia revealed to him, especially when it comes to his own issues.
[Yes, my caution has indeed dropped too much recently, but fortunately Guo Jia reminded me in time, and I have not yet made a big mistake due to my carelessness. In any case, before I truly become an immortal, I must
Always be vigilant.]
[It should be noted that Zhuge was always cautious in his life!]
...
Lu Yan spoke eloquently and wrote hundreds of words, which was almost ready for an essay in later Chinese language exams.
Guo Jia's warning was timely and profound, allowing Lu Yan to immediately discover and pay attention to his shortcomings.
After closing the diary, Lu Yan still felt a little emotional in his heart: "This is a lesson for me to become more and more impetuous. There are many talented people in the world, and I can't fall over halfway."
A thought flashed across my mind, and the system's beep sounded.
[Diary synchronization completed, congratulations to the host for successful sign-in!]
[Judgment of diary content: A!]
[Your sincerity will always be rewarded. Your diary today was rated as Grade A, and the reward will be upgraded to a higher level.]
[Rewards are being generated, please wait...]
[Congratulations to the host, you have obtained Peiyuan Pill*1]
[Peiyuan Dan: It strengthens the foundation and nourishes the essence, nourishes the essence and Qi, and can dredge the meridians and relax the Qi and blood.
After users use it, they can improve their body constitution and increase their life span by 2 years (the effect varies from person to person, and only the first time has the effect of extending life).】
"Pui Yuan Dan!" It's been several years, and today finally the Pu Yuan Dan is available as a reward!
Chad was so surprised that Lu Yan shook his hands and almost shook the diary out.
After putting away the diary, Lu Yan took out a porcelain vase from his arms.
Pouring the pills in the porcelain bottle into his hand, Lu Yan thought about it, and then stuffed them into Bai Longma's mouth.
After doing this, he carefully took out the Peiyuan Pill and put it into the empty small porcelain bottle.
The white dragon horse suddenly received a "heavy reward". While chewing the pill happily, it snorted "hum hum hum", as if it was constantly thanking Lu Yan.
Lu Yan ignored Bai Longma's reaction. His first thought after getting the elixir was: "Should I use it myself, or should I give it to Guo Jia?"
After a period of consistent exercise, Guo Jia's body has become much stronger than before.
But in Lu Yan's opinion, the hidden dangers in his body have not been eradicated, and he himself is an alcoholic, so Lu Yan is still not at ease.
"When I am by his side, I can always supervise him, and even if he has a physical problem, I can treat him in time.
But if Cao Gong’s territory gets bigger in the future, Guo Jia will inevitably be dragged out to take charge of his own business..."
Lu Yan's current physical condition is very good. It is estimated that his use of Peiyuan Dan will not have much improvement in his physical condition, and he may not be able to live for two years.
If used by Guo Jia, the effect may be more significant.
Lu Yan sighed and said to himself: "Well, I have innate true energy to protect my body and I have been immune to all diseases for a long time. I might as well give it to Guo Jia before he is taken away by Boss Cao... Well,
For the sake of giving me a heads up."
...
In the evening, at the general's residence.
"A man lives in troubled times. He makes a name for himself and leaves a lasting legacy. He wields his long sword and kills enemies and invaders. He fights for conquests not for his own sake!"
Cao Cao held a sword in his hand, rapped on the table, and sang loudly.
Guo Jia's heart was filled with excitement when he heard this. After half a jar of wine was poured down his stomach, he also sang loudly: "If God had not given birth to me Guo Fengxiao, my eternal pursuit would be like a long night!"
