Three Kingdoms: Starting from zero, a wealthy party

Chapter 240 Framing
Yuan Shao felt that Xu You's words were reasonable, so he nodded slightly.
Guo Tu on the side laughed out loud after reading it, which made Xu You's expression a bit uneasy, and he turned his head and asked, "Master Guo Tu, I don't know what you are laughing at."

Guo Tu stopped smiling after hearing this, and said: "This must be a trick, the purpose is to wipe me out completely, this secret letter is a bait, a bait to lure the lord to take the bait."

Xu You was very unhappy when he heard this. "Master Guo Tu, do you mean that Liu Bei will choose to help Cao Cao to frame my lord?"

"Of course not. I believe in Liu Bei's character. As the uncle of today's emperor, he is known for benevolence and righteousness. I will not disbelieve what Uncle Liu said. But what if this secret letter was not written by him? If this secret letter It's Cao Cao's trick!"

"This..." Xu You was at a loss for words for a while, he didn't know how to answer this question, but for some reason, he always felt that this secret letter was written by Liu Bei. He has a bad attitude towards himself, and he hopes to express himself again in front of the lord, and this secret letter gives him this opportunity.
Once people start to go downhill, they often hope that things will start to develop according to their own hope, and they will rush to the top regardless of the opposition of everyone else.
Xu You is like this now, but he hasn't noticed it yet.
Guo Tu continued: "My lord, please think about it carefully. How many soldiers and horses Liu Bei has in his hand? He only has the [-] soldiers that the lord gave him. Does the lord think that with the help of [-] soldiers, he can win the war that Cao Cao has been running for many years?" Headquarters?"

Xu You immediately retorted: "Master Guo Tu also said just now that Cao Cao is full of tricks. Could it be that he just caught our thoughts and led the army out to fight our army on the Guandu battlefield. There is no one in Xuchang city. The defenders will naturally be very empty, and it is understandable that Liu Bei, who has [-] soldiers in his hand, can take advantage of the emptiness to capture Xuchang City."

"My lord Xu is just joking. Who is Cao Cao? He is a great master in the art of war, and the use of troops is even more unpredictable. People who don't understand soldiers like you and I know that we should place a lot of troops in our base camp to prevent the enemy from secretly Didn’t Cao Cao know about the sneak attack? Master Xu, stop deceiving yourself and others. I’m sure that Cao Cao must have sent this letter to the lord in the name of Liu Bei. Lay in ambush and wait for my army to enter the net."

"Master Guo Tu, why can't you believe that Liu Bei wrote this letter to us instead of insisting that it was Cao Cao's trick? By the way, my lord just said that there is a messenger to deliver the letter. Get that messenger. Just ask and you'll know."

"Sir Xu, don't lie to yourself anymore." Guo Tu said with a smile on the sidelines: "You didn't really believe what you said just now, if that person is a messenger sent by Cao Cao, he must be a dead man, don't you Do you think our hard work and torture will have a great effect on the dead man? Will he choose the person behind the confession?"

Xu You was speechless by Guo Tu's words, and he didn't know how to speak for a while, but no matter what, he still believed that Liu Bei sent someone to send Yuan Shao this letter, because he knew Liu Bei well, and this kind of letter could destroy Cao Cao He will never give up the opportunity, he will seize it and give Cao Cao a head-on blow.
He also believed that this was the choice Liu Bei made after careful consideration, and that he had found the most suitable ally on the surface, but unfortunately this ally was a little dull, and he still had a blank grasp of the overall situation, and could not see clearly the current situation.
Xu You was very unwilling to give up, thinking it was for himself and for such a good opportunity, he turned his head and said to Yuan Shao: "My lord, this is definitely not Cao Cao's trick. Although Cao Cao is extremely treacherous, Liu Bei is not. Ah, he has always said the same thing, so I dare to conclude that this must be the good news that Liu Bei has worked so hard to give us."

However, Yuan Shao's words made him a little helpless. "Why do you conclude that this must have been written by Liu Bei? What is your reason?"

Xu You couldn't say, he couldn't tell Yuan Shao because of the sympathy of the downcast, then Yuan Shao would ask him why he felt downcast, and then think of himself and ask him, could it be that I, Yuan Shao, wasn't good enough for you?
He can't say it's because he knows Liu Bei well, and he believes in his heart that this incident was planned by Liu Bei alone. If he is suppressed for too long, there will be a huge rebound. Liu Bei just wants to let the world through this move. The princes all looked at him with admiration, and got to know the uncle of the emperor again.
Seeing that he was speechless, Yuan Shao couldn't help sneering, what he said just now was so intense, why can't he even fart now.
Guo Tu looked at Xu You coldly, for some reason, he suddenly thought of an unlikely possibility, let alone for some reason, he said it out of nowhere.
"Master Xu, why do I feel that you seem to know Liu Bei very well, do you want to secretly vote for Liu Bei behind the back of your lord!"

When Xu You heard this, his back broke out in a cold sweat. He raised his head and looked at Guo Tu in surprise, not understanding why this man had seen through his heart and knew the real reason why he dared not answer just now.
Guo Tu was also taken aback. He didn't expect that he would gain unexpected results just by saying a word. Xu You's eyes on him just now made him understand everything. From the eyes just now, he read a lot of things, and he felt more It is very clear that this is a great opportunity to bring down Xu You.
Sitting in the upper position, he couldn't bear to hear this, and immediately asked loudly: "Xu You, what Guo Tu said is true or not, I want to hear that you recruited it as it is."

"My lord, my lord." Xu You didn't know whether he was nervous or afraid, and he added a vibrato that he didn't usually have when he spoke. "My loyalty to the lord can be learned from heaven and earth, and I have absolutely no second thoughts."

"Then why have you been persuading the lord to believe that this is Liu Bei's handwritten letter? Do you really hope that Liu Bei can achieve great achievements?"

Without waiting for Xu You to answer, Guo Tu continued: "Oh, I see, you don't have to care whether it is Liu Bei's handwritten letter or Cao Cao's treachery, anyway, in your eyes, you don't care about the life of the lord, right? ?”

Xu You didn't expect Guo Tu to say such vicious words, he was very afraid that Yuan Shao would listen to his nonsense and let himself end up in the same fate as Tian Feng.
The news of Tian Feng's death had not yet reached the camp, so Xu You didn't know about it, but he knew in his heart that the final outcome was death.
