The beginning of the Three Kingdoms Cheng Yuanzhi

Chapter 151 Is This The Ghost Conspirator Guo Fengxiao?

After Su Bo and Cai Yong left, Cheng Yuanzhi immediately sent someone to Yecheng to summon Tian Feng, Shen Pei and other counselors to see him.

Then, I sat alone in the cold lobby of the prefect's mansion, contemplating for a long, long time.

He has realized that Hebei, which seems to be very powerful on the surface, is full of hidden dangers inside.

One mistake, the good situation will be broken in an instant.

People's hearts will change.

Especially when the power stays in someone's hands for a long time, he will take it for granted that this is the power he deserves.

And still want more!

Even if he didn't have this idea, his subordinates would not agree, just like "Chenqiao mutiny, yellow robe added", when the person with power does not want to make progress, the subordinates will push his ass up .

Push hard!

Therefore, even if Zhang Yang doesn't have any ideas at the moment, he must check and balance.

But how to check and balance?Cheng Yuanzhi had no clue, so he could only ask the counselors for advice.

The counselors came very quickly, and within three days, they all gathered at the Hanoi Prefect's Mansion.

Tian Feng was the first to come because he was in Shangdang and was the closest.

After that came Shenpei, Jushou, Xu You, Fengji, Xun Chen, Guo Tu, Chen Lin, Xin Pi, Xin Ping, Dong Zhao, Geng Wu, Min Chun and others.

The last ones to arrive were the counselors who belonged to Cao Cao, Xun Yu, Xun You, Chen Qun, Cheng Yu, and Liu Ye.

Xi Zhicai didn't come, because he was seriously ill, and after Cao Cao's death, he was disheartened and didn't want to be an official again.

In the prefect's mansion, all the counselors gathered together, each with a proud posture.

Cheng Yuanzhi looked around and asked in a deep voice: "Hebei seems to be strong, but I have hidden worries. I invite you here today to ask for advice on Bingzhou. Please speak freely."

Hearing this, he thought he was the judge of the number one counselor in Hebei, took a big step, and was about to speak, but was snatched by Tian Feng.

"My lord, don't let Zhang Yang live in Bingzhou for a long time!"

Cheng Yuanzhi keenly noticed that after hearing Tian Feng's words, all the counselors had a look of understanding.

It seems that everyone has long seen the problem in Hebei.

But no one spoke up!

If the old father-in-law Cai Yong hadn't mentioned it, he wouldn't have realized that the situation in Bingzhou was imminent.

Cheng Yuanzhi glanced at Tian Feng who never knew what modesty and politeness were, and asked knowingly:

"Oh, why is that?"

Tian Feng took a step forward, cupped his hands and said, "Zhang Yang has [-] elite soldiers, who have been with him for a long time and formed a line of his own. Apart from Shangdang, Bingzhou, the other five counties are under his control, and his family members are all in Bingzhou , rather than living in Yecheng."

"For such a long time, there will be a difference!"

Cheng Yuanzhi frowned: "There must be a difference?"

Why do you one or two insist that Zhang Yang will rebel?
Cheng Yuanzhi felt that Zhang Yang might become an independent kingdom, but he would not dare to oppose him.

Yang Chou learned from the past, he did not believe that Zhang Yang dared to stand on the opposite side.

Tian Feng continued: "My lord, no matter whether this person has a different intention or not, he must be on guard against others! Feng thought that he should first transfer Zhang Liao and Mu Shun, cut down their generals, and then send his deputy to Bingzhou to divide the power of state governance. "

"In this way, hidden dangers can be eliminated."

The judge came out and said: "My lord, Tian Feng's proposal is very good."

All the counselors in Hebei echoed in unison: "My lord, this proposal is very good!"

Xun Yu, Xun You and others also bowed their hands in agreement.

They have just come here, so they don't have much right to speak, so it's inconvenient to offer advice.

The strategy is indeed a good one!Three times, five times and two times cleared up the situation in Bingzhou.

But Cheng Yuanzhi hesitated a little, and turned his gaze to Xun Yu. "Why didn't Wen Ruo say a word?"

Xun Yu came out and cupped his hands and said, "My lord, you are all high-spirited, and Yu has nothing to say."

Cheng Yuanzhi stared straight at him, and said in his heart: Good guy, are you planning to "Xu Shu enter Cao Ying without saying a word" and fish with my high salary?
How can that work?If you dare to fish, I will deduct your salary!

Xun Yu looked a little embarrassed, and knew that today's level was not easy to fool, so he had to say something.

Then he cupped his hands again and said: "My lord, Yu really has nothing to say, but I would like to recommend someone who must have a different and high theory, which can make the lord refreshed."

Cheng Yuanzhi was startled: "Who is it?"

It can't be Guo Jia. Counting the time, it's almost time for him to leave the mountain.

Xun Yu said: "This person is my fellow countryman, Yingchuan Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao."

It really was him!Cheng Yuanzhi gasped, and immediately thought of many things.

During this period of time, he always wondered that the process of eliminating Cao Cao was too simple and easy.

No difficulty!

So I have been puzzled, Cao Cao shouldn't be so vulnerable.

Until now when he heard Guo Jia's name, Cheng Yuanzhi suddenly understood.

Cao Cao was so easily eliminated because he didn't have Guo Jia under his command.

In the original time and space, in 196, Xi Zhicai, Cao Cao's highly valued counselor, passed away.

Sad, Cao Cao wrote to Xun Yu, asking him to recommend a counselor who could succeed Xi Zhicai.

Therefore, Xun Yu recommended his friend Guo Jia to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao summoned Guo Jia to discuss major issues in the world. After the discussion, he was overjoyed and said, "He is the one who can help me achieve great things!"

It means: This Guo Jia is even better than Xi Zhicai.

Guo Jia also lived up to Cao Cao's high expectations. In 12 years, he helped Cao Cao sweep the Central Plains and unify Hebei.

Helped Cao Cao to be promoted from a small pudding prince occupying one county to a king occupying two-thirds of the world.

This is a real military strategist!
I didn't think of this before, so I always felt a sense of absurdity. Now that I think about it, all doubts suddenly disappeared.

Cheng Yuanzhi secretly rejoiced that he was ruthless and decisive enough to kill Guo Jia before Cao Cao got him.

So he hurriedly asked, "Where is Guo Jia?"

Xun Yu said, "I have been in Huai County, Hanoi for a long time."

"Why didn't you report me earlier? Hurry up!"

After a while, a slightly thin scholar in Lunjin stepped into the hall, walked straight ten steps away, saluted with a long body, and said, "Guo Jia has seen Duke Ming."

"No courtesy, no courtesy!"

Cheng Yuanzhi raised his hands in vain, and went straight to the point, "Feng Xiao, I am worried about the matter of Bingzhou. Everyone persuades me to cut Zhang Yang's soldiers and divide their power. Now I am entangled, please decide for me!"

Guo Jia pondered for a while: "I don't know if Minggong wants to take it slowly or see immediate results."

The translation of this sentence means: Ming Gong wants to kill Zhang Yang, or keep Zhang Yang.

Cheng Yuanzhi said solemnly: "Zhang Yang has been with me for a long time, and he has made great achievements many times. I definitely have no such intentions, and I will never do the act of killing a donkey."

Guo Jia's eyes showed a hint of approval: "Then this strategy is not feasible!"

"If you do this, Zhang Yang will die!"

Cheng Yuanzhi was startled: "Oh, why?"

"The king doubts the minister, and the minister must die!"

Guo Jialang said in a loud voice: "As long as Minggong cuts down his soldiers, he will be panicked if he divides his power and publicizes it. If he doesn't commit suicide, he will rebel!"

"Looking at his character, he should not be able to commit acts of rebellion, so..."

"Therefore, the day when power is cut is the time when he dies!"

Damn it, you actually have such a thorough understanding of human nature, and are so scheming... Cheng Yuanzhi was shocked.

He thought Tian Feng's plan was a good one.Looking at it this way, it's a bad idea!

Thinking of this, Cheng Yuanzhi broke out in a cold sweat.

Indeed, what Guo Jia said was too correct, if he really did this, Zhang Yang would have his life!

Based on my understanding of him, if I really did this, I would scare him to death!
Moreover, if the strategy of cutting power does not work, then the method of calling Zhang Yang back to Yecheng to serve as a high-ranking official will not work either.

Thinking of this, Cheng Yuanzhi suddenly felt dizzy.

Guo Jia continued: "Spreading Yang is a hidden worry, Duke Ming must make plans early!"

I know!Cheng Yuanzhi frowned, his heart fluttered for a moment.

What should I do?
While thinking about it, he caught a glimpse of Tian Feng, and suddenly he was out of breath, and said coldly:

"Well, Tian Feng, you almost made me a big mistake and got a bad name!"

"You go back and continue to be the magistrate of the eldest son city!"

Hearing Guo Jia's explanation, Tian Feng also realized that his strategy was inappropriate, and he did not consider Zhang Yang's character and possible consequences.

He has no enmity with Zhang Yang, on the contrary, the relationship between the two is very good.

Tian Feng immediately cupped his hands and said with great shame: "Feng resigns."

Then Shi Shi ran away.


Seeing Tian Feng being demoted for the third time, everyone felt quite sad.

Tian Feng is really an ill-fated counselor.

We must take this as a warning, and immature schemes must not be brought out!

Cheng Yuanzhi stared at Guo Keke with bright eyes, feeling relieved.

It's a conspiracy after all, you can clearly feel it, he is better than other counselors, not just a little bit!

Earn a lot!

Well, I should remember Xun Yu's great contribution!

Although this guy used to regard Cao Cao as his master and his enemy, but at that time each was his master, and what he did was understandable.

Moreover, Xun Yu is very capable and diligent in doing things. Apart from being a royalist, he is perfect in other aspects!
After recognizing himself as the master, he immediately put himself in his shoes to make suggestions and recommend talents for himself.

Such a person must be rewarded!
