Jagged hegemony of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 780

"Yuanzhi, can you tell where His Majesty is through the sky?"

Guo Jia heard Xu Shu say that Liu Wei was found to be all right by observing the sky, so he asked again.

"what?"

Xu Shu rubbed his ears, thinking he heard it wrong, and looked at Guo Jia in surprise.

"Are you hard of hearing? Let me ask you if you can tell where His Majesty is by looking at the sky!"

Guo Jia repeated it again.

Xu Shu was speechless. He gave Guo Jia a blank look, and pointed out the house: "Guo Fengxiao, go out from my house and go straight south, until you reach the south gate. There are fortune tellers there. You can ask them!"

"Hey, I said the surname is Xu, are you playing with me? You want me to find a fortune teller?"

Guo Jia slapped the teacup on the table, pretending to be angry.

"You are talking nonsense, and you blame me? If I had that ability, I would have become a fairy long ago, and I am still drinking tea with you, an ordinary person in this mortal world?"

Xu Shu also slapped the teacup on the table, and stared at Guo Jia, the two stared at each other.

"Okay, you're ruthless!"

Guo Jia accepted the softness, picked up the teacup again, slurped, and took a sip of tea.

However, Guo Jiake couldn't stay idle, and found trouble again, saying: "Yuan Zhi, why don't we go to Lao Ju and Tian Feng, and let these two old guys come forward to prevent Liu An from ascending the throne, what do you think?"

Xu Shuxin said, calling someone an old guy seems like you are very young.

"If you miss, go by yourself, I will not accompany you!"

Xu Shu was dismissed from office by Liu Wei. During these days at home, he has seen many things clearly. According to Liu Wei's governance policy, whoever holds the military power is the master. Now Liu An has controlled most of the Northern Han Dynasty. The soldiers and horses, whoever challenged him, the hungry dog ​​went into the toilet-looking for death.

"Guo Fengxiao, we are all getting old and can't bear to make a fuss. If you are really loyal to His Majesty, then stay at home sick and don't make any fuss. When His Majesty comes back, the dust will settle!"

After Xu Shu finished speaking, he lowered his head to drink tea and ignored Guo Jia.

"You old bastard, do you really want to sit and wait to die? Since His Majesty is not dead, we, as important ministers in the court, did not say anything to stop the crown prince's ascension to the throne. His Majesty is back, and we will not be punished for our crimes!"

Guo Jia pointed at Xu Shu's nose and asked sharply.

Xu Shu slapped Guo Jia's finger away, and said with a smirk: "Hey, who is the important minister in the court? I am dressed in white, and I am a commoner. When will it be the turn of the common people to manage the affairs of the court?"

"you?"

Guo Jia was at a loss for words, Xu Shu, this old boy was really good at calculating, he was dismissed by Liu Wei, and he was light-hearted without an official, but he was different, a first-rank official, an important minister in the court. Thinking that he has taken refuge in Liu An, there will be no way to argue.

"You old bastard, you want to leave me behind and enjoy peace by yourself. There is no door, so hurry up and give me an idea!"

"What's your idea?"

Xu Shu asked knowingly.

"Old slick!"

Guo Jia scolded Xu Shu inwardly, rolled his eyeballs, thoughtfully, and smirked at Xu Shu.

Seeing Guo Jia's smile, Xu Shu thought inwardly that it was not good, thinking that Guo Jia might not be holding back something bad, and secretly scolded Guo Jia for being a badass.

Sure enough, Guo Jia shook his head, and said slowly: "Oh, Mr. Xu has made great contributions to me, but he was dismissed because of a trivial matter. If Mr. Xu is allowed to do nothing at home, it will be a disservice to me. It’s a big loss, tomorrow when the crown prince ascends the throne, I will announce the new emperor and re-activate Master Xu and Yuan Zhi, what do you think?”

"Guo Fengxiao!"

Xu Shu's eyes widened immediately, and he pointed at Guo Jia and yelled, "You old bastard, you are really getting worse with age, you can say such things that harm others and benefit yourself?"

"Hey? Whoever harms others does not benefit oneself, Xu Yuanzhi, I am drawing a strategic alliance. Now that Pang Tong is in charge of the court, I naturally have to draw an alliance to deal with Pang Tong!"

Guo Jia looked at Xu Shu who was furious, and felt that he had defeated Xu Shu, and couldn't help feeling elated.

"You are ruthless, Guo Fengxiao, you are ruthless!"

Xu Shu looked at Guo Jia bitterly, wanting to strangle him to death.

Enough was enough for Guo Jiamei, and she poured tea for Xu Shu in a humble way: "Yuan Zhi, don't be angry, quickly find a way for me to stay away from the court. We are different from Pang Tong. We have been with His Majesty all our lives. You can't Let me not be safe at the end of the festival, and bear the infamy of betraying the Lord, think of a good idea for me, and I will treat you to a good drink!"

"Do you think everyone is like you? An alcoholic? But what you said is still human, let me help you think about it!"

Xu Shu asked again: "By the way, what do you mean by good wine? Ordinary wine can't catch my eye!"

"20 years of aging, the best man's wine, buried in the year my son was born."

Guo Jia raised two fingers.

Xu Shu couldn't help sighing: "This wine is so damn difficult, it can survive 20 years in the hands of you, an alcoholic!"

"Damn! What are you talking about, find a way for me!"

Guo Jia rolled his eyes, and said in his heart that he didn't want to set a picture of my fine wine, didn't he still want to drink!

Only then did Xu Shu tap the table with his fingers, trying to find a way for Guo Jia.

After a long while, Xu Shu said, "Now there is only one way, and that is to pretend to be sick. You resign when you are sick, and cultivate yourself at home!"

"Nonsense, what kind of stupid idea are you talking about? Liu An is a fool, and he can see that I'm pretending to be sick! Do you want such an idea? Can't I figure it out?"

Unexpectedly, Xu Shu thought for so long before coming up with such a bad idea.Guo Jia almost hit Xu Shu.

"Listen to me first!"

Seeing that Guo Jia was about to run away, he hurriedly backed away: "Feng Xiao, what I'm talking about is not letting you pretend to be sick, but doing a fake show for real!"

"Why do you make a fake show?"

"Even if you lie on the bed every day, you have to be served by servants to eat, drink, and scatter, you can't walk on the ground, and you claim to the outside world that you have suffered a stroke and you can't speak. Even if the crown prince goes to test you personally, you can't say a word!"

"Ah? It's okay if you can't talk, but you let me lie on the bed and can't move, isn't it a bit...!"

Guo Jia had a bitter face, a little unwilling.

"If you don't listen, then I have nothing else to do!"

Xu Shu spread his hands.

"Then how long do I have to pretend?"

"That depends on when His Majesty comes back. If His Majesty comes back early, you can get out of bed as soon as possible. If you come back late, then you can stay in bed all the time. However, what you said just reminded me, this capital city is my home. If I can’t wait anymore, I have to go back to Liaozhou quickly. Firstly, I can avoid Liu An’s sending people to harass me, and secondly, I can win over Liaozhou’s generals for His Majesty. Liaozhou is the root of our great Han, and it must be controlled by us. , Wait for His Majesty to come back, and then return it to His Majesty!"

"Oh, Xu Yuanzhi, your idea is too bad. I have hands and feet but I have to lie in bed all day long!"

Guo Jia said helplessly.

"Hey, then you should pray that His Majesty will come back soon! Also, bring me the wine that you promised me, and I will leave tonight!"
