Datang: Huchi served as a bodyguard, but refused to enter the court as an official

Chapter 990 Among their groups, Liu Bai is the absolute person in charge

Guo Daizhao's treatment is better than Min Dongping's.

However, it wasn't much better.

Formation of gangs in the military is common.

They are all guys who like to yell, drink, and laugh. They are not allowed to drink or gamble, so can they still prevent them from making friends?

Only those veterans in the army who hold heavy soldiers in their hands will pay attention to this.

Guo Daizhao is the 'leader' of their small group.

In terms of future, there are not many in the army who are better than Guo Daizhao.

Moreover, a large part of the people here are from Longyou Dao.

Guo Xiaoke's prestige is still very high.

Others dare not do anything to him, but some people can treat him like a dish

After all, in terms of status, Guo Fengxiao is at best a second-rate 'yamen'.

The people in this tent are all top-notch figures!

For example, Li Chengqian, Chai Lingwu, Cheng Chumo

Randomly pick out one of these three people, they are all people who can talk to Guo Xiaoke on an equal footing.

Even Cheng Chumo, who is the most incompetent, Guo Xiaoke will take the lead in saluting and shouting 'Little Lord'.

The three of them sat in a half circle around Guo Daizhao, each holding a bowl of braised noodles, eating happily.

"You said that you have a pair of eyes growing on the dog. You have a bright future, but now it's all ruined. I'm afraid your father will also be implicated."

The white ashes on Li Chengqian's face hadn't been wiped off yet.

After eating the noodles in a while, he will continue to pack garlic outside.

Guo Daizhao was not tied to a frame, but his hands and feet were also tied with chains.

He will definitely not be able to move freely until he is cleared of his suspicions.

Cheng Chumo grew up with Guo Daizhao.

After eating a bowl of noodles, there was some stew left, so he stood up, leaned in front of Guo Daizhao, and licked it into his mouth.

"Salty is a bit salty. It's better than being hungry. Brother, I'll find you some water to drink later. Let's make do with it."

Guo Daizhao took two bites, his face twitching.

He said to Cheng Chumo resentfully, "Is this considered torture to extract a confession?"

Cheng Chumo put the bowl aside, sighed, and said: "In this world, no one has a hard time. Cheng Qian is still the crown prince, so he is treated like a dog? Your grievance is nothing."

Hearing this, Li Chengqian kicked Cheng Chumo's ass hard.

Cheng Chumo didn't hurt or itch, patted the dirt on his buttocks, smiled, and said: "It's a good thing to be aggressive. Those old men in the army have long been outdated. From now on, our brothers will rule the world. Brother Liu always said, Eating hardships is suffering, and the position is superior to others."

Chai Lingwu was still depressed because of Zhang Zhilan's matter.

"Our brothers have been too unlucky recently. There are a lot of troubles. I can see through it. After leaving Chang'an City, there will never be peace. After returning, I plan to live at home for a few years."

Guo Daizhao helplessly covered his face.

He originally thought that these guys were here to comfort him.

Co-authoring is treating myself as a trash can, complaining is coming

Li Chengqian wiped the corner of his mouth, and said, "You really didn't see that that guy named Min turned his back on him?"

Guo Daizhao shook his head in confusion.

Thinking of the scenes with Min Dongping before, I still feel chills down my back.

Fortunately, his purpose is not himself.

Otherwise, I would have died eighty times already.

"He was transferred from the Jinwu Guard, and we have been together for more than three months. He usually seems to be a bold and steady person, and he treats people well. I didn't expect that"

Li Chengqian frowned, lowered his head, wondering what he was thinking.

At this time, the curtain was lifted.

None of them looked back.

Li Chengqian asked: "Hongying, what did you find out?"

"What did you ask Hongying to investigate?"

When everyone heard Liu Bai's voice, they stood up one after another.

Guo Daizhao was inconvenient, so he continued to squat on the ground, but his head was almost stuffed into his crotch.

He didn't have much contact with Liu Bai, but he knew that his father and Liu Bai had a close friendship.

The Guo family is able to have what it is today, mostly because of Liu Bai's tailwind chariot.

"Brother Liu!"

The three of Li Chengqian said in unison.

Liu Bai nodded, and sat down in front of Guo Daizhao.

He didn't speak to Guo Daizhao immediately, but looked at Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian said: "I asked Hongying to check Min Dongping's details before, I doubt it."

Speaking of this, he paused, and looked at Guo Daizhao unnaturally.

He also suspected that the 'Min Dongping incident' had something to do with the assassination of the royal families in Chang'an City.

However, the assassination of the royal family is still in the stage of strict secrecy.

To this day, few people know about it.

Even Chai Lingwu and Cheng Chumo only knew some clues.

Liu Bai shook his head, and said: "Since he dares to do something, it means that this group of people are not worried about leaving the first and last, and they won't find anything out."

After speaking, he looked at Guo Daizhao.

"When your father left Liangzhou, he specially entrusted Qiao Shiwang, the governor of Liangzhou, to take good care of you. Qiao Shiwang also wrote to me, asking me to say something nice to the old men."

Guo Daizhao's head lowered lower and lower.

The whole person curled up like a prawn.

They can be friends with Li Chengqian and get along as brothers. Although Liu Bai is not much different in age from them, they are more like an elder.

Remembering that before, he heard Min Dongping's words and had doubts about Liu Bai, and he felt even more ashamed.

"Duke Zou was assassinated and seriously injured. Although there is no danger of his life, he may not be able to move for a year or so. I have decided to give him all the income of your Guo family in the Western Regions. Members of the Lingnan Fleet, Also transfer it all to him, this is the price you have to pay."

"After repaying Duke Zou, you are cleared, but His Majesty's anger is not something you can bear. For your father's sake, I can send you back to Chang'an first. At least I can guarantee that His Majesty will not be angry directly. Kill you."

Guo Daizhao raised his head with some difficulty.

"Thank you, Brother Liu."

Among these several groups of them, Liu Bai is the absolute leader.

The tokens of the Patriarchs, including Fang, Du, Xiao, Yu, Cheng, etc., are even in Liu Bai's hands.

This is already the best solution.

Although Zhang Gongjin's patriarch token is not in Liu Bai's hands.

But there have been countless collaborations between them.

Compensation must be given.

Otherwise, this circle will be difficult to maintain.

Not to mention Guo Daizhao, even Guo Xiaoke is not qualified to refuse.

Liu Bai said lightly: "Don't be in a hurry to thank, there is one thing, you need to weigh it yourself, whether you do it or not, if you do it well, it is enough to write off your fault, and even your Guo family will get a reward for it, but if you do it badly , it will be difficult for you to step into the Central Plains again in your life, so think about it carefully."

Chapter 991 Young Master, I'm Running Away

Central Plains culture is extensive and profound.

Talking freely and freely, among the hundreds of stratagems, Liu Bai's favorite is the 36 stratagems.

According to later generations, the 36 Strategies were written in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. In fact, as early as the Southern and Northern Dynasties, there was a saying of 36 Strategies.

Because, this is the crystallization of wisdom summed up by the predecessors from countless classic battle cases.

It sounds like 36 strategies are not many.

However, it is difficult to use it well.

Liu Bai is a person who is extremely good at planning the overall situation and summing up gains and losses.

Before each conflict, he will do a lot of preparation work.

After the end, you will spend more time and learn from it.

After summarizing, he found that the two methods of "playing hard to get" and "throwing bricks to attract jade" are the best and most effective.

This time, he intends to combine these two moves.

When he dealt with the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs back then, he just used the trick of "throwing bricks to attract jade".

Although the enemy is in the dark this time, it must be a two-pronged approach, which is enough to wipe out the enemy!

Since it is necessary to throw a brick to attract jade, a brick is essential.

Guo Daizhao is this brick!

Of course, whether you want to be a brick or not depends on what Guo Daizhao himself means.

He has a good relationship with Guo Xiaoke, so he can't use his son as an abandoned son.

Just as Liu Bai expected, Guo Daizhao didn't even hesitate, and agreed directly!

"If it can make up for my sins, I am willing to do anything!"

Guo Daizhao's tone was very firm.

As the eldest son of the Guo family, he is too aware of how important the Guo family's income in the Western Regions and the share of the Lingnan Fleet are.

If Guo Xiaoke hadn't been the governor of Liangzhou, adjacent to the Western Regions, and played an important role on the Silk Road, I'm afraid he wouldn't even be qualified to participate in these two businesses.

Looking at the partners, one can see how high the specifications of these two businesses are.

Li Er and Liu Bai, who are the most involved, needless to say.

Others, such as several bigwigs from the three provinces, veterans such as Cheng Yaojin and Qu Tutong, veterans such as Li Deliang, Yuwenshi and others, and even Feng An from Lingnan

Just pick one out, and the status will be several floors higher than Guo Xiaoke.

Without the income from the Western Regions, without the share of the Lingnan Fleet, what is missing is not just money.

And the qualifications to enter that 'circle'!

This is a price the Guo family cannot afford at all!

Originally, Guo Daizhao already had the will to die.

It doesn't seem like a big deal, but the most important thing in the military is to take responsibility.

If there is no room for manoeuvre, his best ending is to lose his qualifications as the eldest son and be regarded as a useless person, raised at home to flourish.

Now, Liu Bai is equivalent to giving him a chance to stand up.

The big deal is not to step into the Central Plains for life.

Liu Bai was very satisfied with his attitude.

Guo Daizhao doesn't have much ability.

In history, he was only a guerrilla general at best.
