Chapter 335, Reminder and Counter-Teaching

People are always nostalgic, especially after Guo Jia left. Whenever people like Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Xun Yu saw Guo Yi, who was eighty-nine similar to Guo Jia, they couldn't help but think of him and treat Guo Jia in the same way.

way to deal with Guo Yi.

Not long after Liu Guan and Zhang Taoyuan became sworn brothers, Guo Jia joined this small group. In the eyes of the three brothers, Guo Jia was their fourth brother.

Everyone was silent. They all said they missed their parents when they saw things, but they missed their fathers when they saw their children.

After greeting each other, Liu Bei asked about business matters.

"Zilin, have you ever clearly seen the face of the person who pushed you into the water?"

Although Jinyiwei is pervasive, it will still take time to find out this matter. But if Guo Yi can see the appearance of the murderer or recognize his identity, solving the case will be much easier.

However, Guo Yi's return disappointed him.

"Of course I was attracted by the beautiful scenery in the lake. I didn't realize it and I never looked back."

Liu Bei was silent for a moment and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, I will definitely find out the matter and speak out for you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Okay, I won't disturb you anymore, have a good rest."

Liu Bei and others still had plans for the "imperial examination", so they left one after another. Only Xun Yu and others stayed.

The two of them moved to a small pavilion by the lake. Then Xun Yu ordered someone to fetch a Go chess piece, and the two sat down to play the game.

"Zilin, you should learn from your father." Xun Yu took the lead and said with a smile.

"Why?" Guo Yi followed closely, looking confused.

"Following one's filial piety means cherishing one's life the most. You will never put yourself in danger. You must take a guard with you whenever you go out."

Guo Yi burst out laughing, his father in his memory was indeed like this.

"My nephew also has a question. I hope my uncle will tell you the truth."

"But it doesn't matter."

"What does uncle think of what Your Majesty wants to do?"

What you want to do.

Xun Yu naturally understood that Guo Yi was referring to the upcoming "imperial examination".

He thought for a while and responded: "This is a move that benefits the country and the people. Once it is on the right track, the influence of the family will gradually weaken and eventually cease to exist."

This is a pertinent statement. If he was not from a noble family, if he was not the head of the Xun family, he would support it without hesitation.

However, precisely because as the head of the Xun family, he had to consider the interests of the family, so he was in a dilemma.

Guo Yi smiled and said: "Has uncle ever been involved in it?"

Although he asked this question, he could roughly guess that Xun Yu was probably not involved due to his background.

It's one thing that Liu Beixin doesn't trust him, but he himself may not be willing to be the leader. It's not that he's afraid of the family's revenge, but that he can't pass the test in his heart.

Xun Yu shook his head slightly and sighed: "If I were to take charge of this matter, let alone the world's famous families, the Xun family would not be able to spare me."

This was also a joke. After all, he was the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty. Even if those people hated him, they couldn't do anything to him.

"Uncle, you are a fan of the authorities!"

"oh?"

Xun Yu was amused by his old-fashioned appearance and said with great interest: "I wonder what Mr. Guo Zilin has to say?"

Guo Yi solemnly said: "I dare to ask my uncle, if the Xun family unites the world's famous families, can they stop this matter?"

This is a bit presumptuous. If it reaches Liu Bei's ears, I wonder what he will think.

"You are really as bold as your father." Xun Yu looked at him deeply, shook his head and said, "No!"

As a veteran who followed Liu Bei to conquer the world, he knew very well how powerful the Han army was now.

It is true that after Liu Bei unified the world, he drastically reduced his troops. The total number of troops in the four major military regions was only 400,000.

However, the combat power of these 400,000 people is far better than the so-called million cavalry, because they are all elites who have fought in hundreds of battles and are well-equipped.

This is the policy of elite soldiers, plowing away useless branches and leaves, leaving behind the sharpest sword.

It can be said that as long as Liu Bei can control the army, they have no hope of success.

All they could do was to dismiss officials collectively and use this method to force the emperor to compromise.

But, will Liu Bei, who has a strong personality, compromise?

At this moment, he may have made up his mind that he would rather be in pieces than in ruins.

Moreover, Liu Bei was not unprepared in recent years. Many academies built in various places have trained many new generations, which can temporarily fill the vacancies in positions.

Xun Yu even guessed Liu Bei's response plan. First, he would use trained officials to fill the vacancies, and then win over some small aristocratic families to slowly resolve the crisis.

Then, he will be able to free up his hands to deal with the leading aristocratic family and kill the chicken to scare the monkeys.

Guo Yi confidently said: "Since you know you can't stop it, why doesn't your uncle try to accept it?"

Oh.

Xun Yu suddenly smiled, appearing magnanimous and gentlemanly.

Guo Yi was puzzled. Did he say something wrong?

"You have been smart since you were young, but your experience is too little." Xun Yu shook his head and asked, "Do you know why your father fled overseas when the world was unified?"

Guo Yi pondered: "He does not want to get involved in political affairs, nor does he want to participate in the political battle after the unification of the world."

"This is just one of them. The real reason is that he also comes from a noble family."

"Any questions?"

"What goes up must come down."

Xun Yu began to talk eloquently, as if he was teaching students.

"The world only knows that a dynasty must decline when it prospers, but they don't know that the same is true for aristocratic families. When a family reaches its peak, it will either go further or plummet."

Guo Yi said doubtfully: "But my father has never been in contact with the Guo family, so he cannot be considered the head of the family."

"This is just your personal opinion, but for the world, how many people can abandon their family bloodline?"

Xun Yu's rhetorical question left Guo Yi speechless. He had an intuition that his kind reminder would be taught in reverse.

It turned out that the clown was the one in charge, and I was the clown!

At the same time, after Xun Yu's guidance, he found that his knowledge of politics was still too shallow.

It's not that Xun Yu didn't see through it, but he did it deliberately, just because of those four words--whatever flourishes must inevitably decline.

He deliberately wanted to lose Liu Bei's trust and slow down the family's rise, so as not to threaten the imperial power and create a dilemma.

Seeing that he was in a daze, Xun Yu said with a smile: "You have been smart since you were young, but your experience is still too shallow. Remember, you can't just look at things on the surface. They may be used to confuse you."

"There is a poem by your father that I like very much. Flowers gradually become more charming. Only in Asakusa can there be no horse hooves. There is no room for mistakes in political disputes."

"Thank you uncle for teaching me, my nephew realized that he was wrong." Guo Yi blushed a little, not because of shyness, but because of embarrassment.

How could he think of teaching Xun Yu how to play politics?

Is it possible that Wang Zuo’s talent is in vain?

I thought the other party was a fan of the authorities, but it turned out that he didn't see the true nature of the matter.

"You lost."

Xun Yu fell into the trap, a sure kill!

Guo Yi didn't care, he never thought he could win against Xun Yu.

"Has uncle ever met Zhuge Kongming?"
