Guo Jia of the Three Kingdoms, Liu Bei was reborn at the beginning to recruit

Chapter 336, Investigation

Author: The sadness that cannot be played away

Xun Yu asked with great interest: "Why do you suddenly ask about Kong Ming?"

From what I heard, it seemed that not only did the two of them know each other, but they also seemed to be very familiar with each other.

Guo Yi smiled and said, "I just heard rumors that His Majesty seems to be interested in cultivating this person."

"Are you hinting at me?" Xun Yu could see through the young man's thoughts at a glance.

"I just care about my uncle. After all, although my father has many friends, he only has a few close friends."

"Don't worry, even if I am no longer the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, the Marquis of Dingbei and the Marquis of Pingxi will still protect you."

"But they can't give their nephew advice."

Guo Yi said seriously.

Although Liu Bei valued him, he was the emperor after all, and it was not convenient for him to say many things.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were both military generals. They were very good at commanding the three armies, but they were not necessarily good at politics.

Xun Yu smiled and scolded: "You are just the same as your father. But if something happens, you can go to Xiao Zhan, the commander of the Jinyi Guards."

"He was brought out by your father single-handedly. This kindness of knowing and meeting him cannot be lost. Moreover, His Majesty just ordered him to investigate the case of you falling into the water."

Jinyiwei!

Only then did Guo Yi remember that the current commander of the Jinyi Guards was once his father's groom, and there was a trace of this person in his memory.

But as time went by, Xiao Zhan entered the Jinyi Guards, and his visits became less and less.

As the eyes of the emperor, Jin Yiwei has a low position, but has great influence.

Guo Yi wondered: "Now that my father is no longer here, will he remember this incense love?"

"You will know after you go see him." Xun Yu stood up after saying: "Okay, it's time for me to go back."

"Send filial piety to your uncle."

Guo Yi then sent Xun Yu out of the house. Before leaving, Xun Yu added another sentence.

"Kong Ming, Pang Shiyuan, Fa Xiaozhi. These are young talents that His Majesty values. You can make friends with them, but you should not get too close."

Hearing this, Guo Yi lowered his head and savored the last sentence.

Is this a reminder to him to have good relations with other people, but not to let the emperor feel like his ministers are forming cliques for personal gain?

"My nephew has learned a lesson."

Guo Yi watched Xun Yu leave and was about to return to his house when he saw a carriage approaching.

When the two carriages passed by each other, the people in the carriages seemed to say hello to Xun Yu.

Could it be him?

After a while, the curtain of the carriage was opened, and a familiar figure stepped out of the carriage.

"Why, you can send your uncle Wenruo out of the house, but you don't want to say hello to me?"

Xiao Zhan looked at the stunned young man and joked with a smile: "Is it because he is the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, and I am just the commander of the little Jin Yiwei?"

Xiao Zhan has been in charge of the Imperial Guard for many years. During this period, he raided many corrupt officials and strangled many lawless knights. He was dubbed the "Executioner".

It's really hard to imagine that he is such a friendly person.

Guo Yi glanced at the group of guards in flying fish suits and embroidered spring knives behind the carriage, and his face suddenly changed.

"Uncle, you have to make the decision for your nephew!"

Xiao Zhan was stunned and looked at the pitiful young man. It took him a long time to come back to his senses.

"You brat, don't be miserable here. There are more prisoners in the sky jail who are better at acting than you. Do you want to go in and have a chat with them?"

Guo Yi said with a shy smile: "Uncle, you wouldn't do this to me, would you?"

"Hmph, you deserve to be pushed into the water for being so arrogant."

After saying that, I walked back to the house, feeling like I was back at home.

Guo Yi was confused by this familiar tone. Could it be that he was too.

But then I felt relieved. After following a time traveler for so many years, it was reasonable to be affected.

The two of them walked side by side towards the mansion. On the way, Xiao Zhan said again: "I have been ordered by His Majesty to investigate the case of you being pushed into the water. Next, I will inevitably interrogate the servants in your mansion. You won't mind, right?"

"No, no, I also want to know if anyone in the house is eating the food."

Guo Yi said as he glanced at the servants in front of him.

After that incident, all the people in the house looked like thieves in his eyes.

But logically speaking, Guo Jia is the founder of Jinyiwei, and everyone in the family should be selected at all levels. How could such a mistake happen?

"Call all the servants and maids in your house. I have something to ask."

"Um."

Guo Yi nodded, then looked at the middle-aged man beside him.

"Uncle Wu, go and do it."

Wu Jie, the current steward of the Guo Mansion.

"Yes, Lord Marquis."

After a while, nearly a hundred servants and maids from all over the Guo Mansion arrived.

Xiao Zhan turned to look at Qian Hu, who was accompanying him: "Go and ask about the daily life, comings and goings of the servants in the house these days."

"Here."

After arranging for their subordinates to interrogate the servant girl, the two of them moved to the small pavilion by the lake where Guo Yi and Xun Yu had just played chess.

Xiao Zhan came to sit down in front of the chessboard and sighed: "This kind of thing shouldn't have happened. It was my dereliction of duty. If your father were still here, he would definitely scold me."

Guo Yi was startled when he heard this: "What does uncle mean?"

"Your father is right. Power will always decay under the baptism of time. Even the guards in charge of supervision cannot avoid this."

Xiao Zhan looked ashamed: "Your father reminded me, but I still made such a stupid mistake after all."

Guo Yi finally understood: "Uncle, what you mean is that there is a Jin Yiwei spy in this mansion?"

Xiao Zhan nodded slightly: "These people were originally used as guards, but now they don't know anything about anything when something happens, ha~"

There was a bit of sarcasm in the words, and a bit of murderous intent.

Guo Yi understood immediately. In his memory, the several turmoils within the Liu Bei Group seemed to be guarded by the servants and maids of the palace.

From this point of view, it is not surprising that Jin Yiwei was born.

He tried: "What does uncle plan to do?"

Xiao Zhan said expressionlessly: "This trend cannot last forever, and the Imperial Guards cannot tolerate traitors. We cannot keep these people."

Guo Yi responded with silence, but he had no intention of interceding for these people. After all, they were trying to kill him, and he had heard the story about Mr. Dong Guo and the snake.

After a while, he said: "My nephew just hopes that my uncle will not kill innocent people by mistake."

Xiao Zhan smiled and said: "Your compassion is like that of your father. Back then, everyone said he was ruthless, but that's how it is on the battlefield. Zilin, do you know what I hate the most?"

"Uncle, I just said it's okay."

"These people were originally refugees. Your father took pity on them and took them in, but they repaid you with kindness."

Xiao Zhan said coldly: "No matter what, kill every one you find."

In his view, these people had received great favor from Guo Jia, but in turn murdered his heirs. This was an unforgivable crime.

If he knew that the original Guo Yi was dead, he would probably kill everyone in this mansion.

"Then, will uncle arrange escorts for me next?"

"There is no need for me anymore. After such a big mistake, I have no shame in sending more people. Marquis Dingbei has already informed His Majesty that he is going to select a team of 100 people from the elite border guards to serve as your bodyguard."
