MTL - Three Kingdoms-Chapter 2780 Xun Yu pleaded guilty when he missed the investigation, Cao Cao pretended to be suspicious
When Xia Houshang was chasing Wang Chang, he looked back at Xu County.
After Xun Yu received the message, he was startled and angry, as well as panic and uneasy, which made him, who had always been calm and calm, break his defense in such an instant.
He was careless.
Didn't flash...uh, didn't count.
Persistence is a very precious quality, which is difficult for many people to possess. Whether it's vigilance or anything else, it is undoubtedly difficult to maintain a high level.
Under various reasons, the secret leaked out, and trouble came suddenly.
The Xun clansman, magistrate Xinji, who put his head on the ground, trembled. But the current trembling did not make Xun Yu feel the slightest pity. Everyone should have their own responsibilities, and the mistakes caused by the dereliction of all responsibilities cannot be made up for by repentance afterwards.
Mistakes are mistakes.
Even if there is a hype excuse, it is still a mistake.
『Speak carefully. Xun Yu said slowly, as if he had regained his original calm.
『Report to Lingjun…』Xinji county magistrate trembling, said as calmly as possible,『The thief is really daring…』
『I want you to narrate what happened, and you don’t need to comment. 』Xun Yu's tone seemed to be calm as before, but it made the county magistrate Xinji tremble again.
"Yes... yes... it snowed suddenly that day..." Xinji county magistrate put his head close to the ground, as if he was contaminated with some chill rising from the ground, and said tremblingly, "I thought it was only outside the city. There are only bandits, I didn’t expect…”
Before the accident, no one will feel that there is any problem. After the accident, everyone can point out the problem.
Is this weird?
This is normal.
Xun Yu quietly listened to the narration of Xinji County Magistrate, and then turned his attention to some wooden boxes brought by Xinji County Magistrate.
In the wooden box, there are human heads one by one.
Because the weather is still cold, they are not pickled, so that these heads have the original flavor.
『This is the leader? ’ Xun Yu looked at the head placed at the front, “Who cut the new scar on his face?” 』
Xinji county magistrate still lowered his head, "It's him. 』
Xun Yu nodded.
This is indeed a ruthless person.
This knife slashed from one side of the cheek to the other side, the flesh was turned up, and the huge and dried **** wound made the already unrecognizable livid face even more terrifying. There is no doubt that this knife is to cover up something...
Dead man.
Xun Yu had a vague feeling that he had seen this person before, and the knife on his face and Xinji County Magistrate's narration made him confirm this even more, but he couldn't immediately remember who it was, after all Xun Yu has seen at least a few thousand people around Yingchuan and in Xu County. It is indeed difficult to combine the distorted face of the deceased with the appearance of his life.
『Weapons and utensils are all common things...』Xinji County Magistrate opened another wooden box, revealing blood-stained knives, clothes, etc.,『These are used by thieves...』
Xun Yu took two steps forward, and took out a blood-stained saber from the wooden box.
There are traces of fighting on the blade of the war knife, and there are bumps and gaps, which shows that the quality of this war knife is actually very average. And this general quality makes it extremely difficult to get clues from the sword.
『This is not a knife from Guanzhong...』 Xun Yu looked at the blade, but there was no mark on it.
Xinji county magistrate knelt aside and nodded fiercely. If he was not afraid of talking too much and causing Xun Yu's resentment, he would have wanted to howl. Look, these are desperadoes, what can I do? I am innocent too!
It's just obvious that Xun Yu didn't think Xinji county magistrate was innocent. He threw the saber back into the wooden box, then waved his hand to signal for the guards to take the county magistrate Xinji down first.
This matter is no longer in his hands alone.
Do you regret it?
If at first...
But even if the whole incident is repeated again, Xun Yu still has no choice but to do so.
Big man, this house full of holes has been coveted by many people.
『A gentleman is careful not to deceive the dark room. Humble to shepherd yourself, with Zhang Kezhen. 』
Xun Yu murmured to himself in a low voice.
This seemed to be his answer, and his end.
When someone was sinking in the dark house of the big man, Xun Yu was still holding on to his meager candle. He was born in a big man and grew up in Yingchuan, so he wants to continue his life for the big man and give Yingchuan a way out. No one put these responsibilities on him, even Guo Jia laughed at him, but he still felt that this was his business, his responsibility, and the brilliance he would spend his whole life chasing after.
Because Yuan Shao has undisguised ambition, he wants to be the second Emperor Guangwu. So Xun Yu left Yuan Shao. On the one hand, he felt that the 400-year-old man could not end like this. On the other hand, even if he followed Yuan Shao, Yingchuan would be squeezed out and could not get a way out. Then Xun Yu found Cao Cao.
At that time, he was still full of passion, and angrily went to attack Dong Zhuo's Cao Cao.
It's a pity that Cao Cao, who was so passionate, soon became cold.
Cao Cao was stabbed in the back, hot blood flowed from the wound, and soon became icy cold. The remaining blood naturally gradually lost its temperature. He was betrayed by his colleagues, by brothers who sympathized with him, by his soldiers, by friends around him, and even the emperor and courtiers he brought back were plotting to kill him.
The big man has decayed.
People in decay have forgotten what gratitude is and what is fundamental. These people think that Cao Cao should do this, enjoy it for granted, and then criticize, criticize, and naively think that they can do better.
Huge wounds need to be repaired, and broken relationships need to be stitched.
The decayed balance trembles, and the bars on the balance are full of cracks. Once the bars that maintain the relationship collapse, both sides of the balance will fall, falling toward the uncontrollable and irreversible abyss.
Is it possible to let it collapse, and then let Fei Qian take advantage of it easily?
General Hussar's tricks may not be clear to others, but Xun Yu understands that it is fatal to the gentry, like a slow poison, one bite may not kill you immediately, but as time goes by, Hair will fall off, teeth will fall off, skin will rot, and internal organs will collapse. At that time, even if the gentry want to resist, they will not have a strong body and a vigorous physique. reincarnate.
It was precisely because of this that Xun Yu had the "brainstorm" at that time.
The wounds caused by blood, of course, need to be healed with blood, otherwise both parties who have lost their children, how could they temporarily endure the old hatred and welcome the new life?
A new life represents a new future, and thus new hope.
Even though this new student is a little fake, full of fantasy and mystery, the effect is very good.
Liu Xie believes that he is the real son of destiny, and he can still be favored by destiny. All the pain has become his test, and some temporary "setbacks" are not unbearable for him.
Cao Cao has also stabilized his position, gained blessings, and even has a longer-term potential hope. Even though he knows that this hope may be cleared at any time, it still allows Cao Cao to temporarily suppress his anger and become rational again.
The balance has stabilized again.
Xun Yu carefully maintained it, like a candle in the wind.
Only by calming down and thinking, can Shandong have a way out.
Only Yingchuan can live, and so can the big man.
But now, the old accounts have been revealed, and Xun Yu doesn't even know why he was discovered, but when he faces Cao Cao, he must be clear.
Xun Yu pleaded guilty to Cao Cao.
『Guilt or innocence aside, what exactly does this hussar want to do? 』
When Xun Yu pleaded guilty to Cao Cao, this was Cao Cao's first sentence.
Guo Jia, who was beside Cao Cao, seemed to be winking, but Xun Yu lowered his head and seemed not to care at all, or did he notice it but it didn't make much sense?
『My lord, I think that the hussars may not know the truth...』 Xun Yu said calmly, just as calm as before.
Perhaps only Guo Jia on Cao Cao's side can see the mottled light and shadow from Xun Yu's eyelashes, just like looking for the sun in the dense forest.
Cao Cao narrowed his eyes, and quickly understood Xun Yu's meaning, "Wen Ruo's meaning...is this a temptation?" 』
Those who know the matter and those who handle it are all core personnel who are all prosperous and all damaged.
Xun Yu didn't think that his children would publicize this kind of thing everywhere, and he didn't think that the members of the Cao clan would show off such things, but something happened, so whether it was the problem of Xun Yu's children or the Cao clan caused?
There is no point in accusing each other, Xun Yu thought of a possibility.
Xun Yu nodded and said: "Very few people know about this matter... I have thought about it carefully, and there is no reason to leak the secret." Therefore... or follow the rumors, make a mistake...』
『Rumors? 』Cao Cao seemed to be chewing on these two words.
Most of the time, what the people want to know is basically what the government wants to tell. Therefore, under such circumstances, sometimes the government will selectively inform some content intentionally or unintentionally. This result eventually leads to The generation of rumors. Just like in Shandong, the rumors that Hussars have green faces and long fangs, and like to eat hearts and livers were once very popular. Regarding this rumor, the government of Shandong has never said it publicly, but it has never explained it, let alone refuted the rumor. But the government will definitely arrest those who speak good words for the hussars...
Conversely, there must be rumors about Shandong in Guanzhong.
Or in Shandong, there must be rumors about Cao Cao.
As a result, a certain inadvertent rumor, perhaps just an unwarranted guess at the beginning, happened to be true.
Guo Jia raised his eyebrows, pondered, and then said slowly: "This is interesting... Could it be that Hussar really encountered something?" 』
"Um? 』Cao Cao turned his head, looked at Guo Jia, and then pondered.
Guo Jia pinched the beard on his chin, "For things like this, before the hussars...well, my lord, aha...what does that mean..."
Cao Cao waved his hand, "Don't worry about being filial piety, just be honest. 』
Guo Jia nodded and said: "According to Huqi's past habits, most of them are in harmony with each other, but now it's strange... My lord, I suspect that there must be changes under Huqi's rule. In addition, the prices of things from the Western Regions have skyrocketed these days... Although there is no accurate news from the inside of Guanzhong, but someone can assert that there must be a big change in Huqi Hexi! Hushi's behavior this time is just like what Wen Ruo said, to test and use checks and balances! 』
Guo Jia's perspective is different again. He didn't care who was at fault internally, he just said that Huqi's actions seemed to be somewhat different from those who used scheming before, and there must be some reasons for this discrepancy, and judging from the recent changes, this The reason is very likely that there is something wrong with Hexi in the Western Regions, so the hussars used methods that were not commonly used.
Taking hostages is what Mr. Cao is doing. Isn’t Hushi just imitating this?
That's why Cao Cao waved his hand and said that he wanted Guo Jia to speak up.
Cao Cao thought about it, and suddenly sneered, "Ha, I didn't expect that..."
The loli who was robbed is actually basically equivalent to a straw at the moment. At critical moments and important links, it will have a special role, and it depends on whether Cao Cao is willing to admit it. It's like after Liu Bei said that he was King Jing of Zhongshan every day, the people around him laughed until Liu Xie nodded and included Liu Bei's name in the royal genealogy. Show respect with courtesy.
『If what I expected is correct,』 Guo Jia said slowly, 『At that time, there will be rumors in Guanzhong, which will damage the friendship between the Lord and His Majesty! 』
Cao Cao nodded slightly. His original bad mood seemed to change a little bit at this moment.
Although the friendship between him and Liu Xie may not be as much as the tea in front of him.
While discussing, suddenly someone from the corridor rushed over and bowed down and reported: "Speak to the prime minister!" The Foreign Post Office ordered Mrs. Chen to sue in the county government, claiming that Mrs. Chang, who belonged to him, was a Jiang thief who stole money and absconded...』
『Chang’s? Xun Yu suddenly remembered, "The leader of the thief sent by the county magistrate of Xinji is this Chang family!" 』
Cao Cao froze for a moment, then burst out laughing, "That's all, that's all! 』
Amidst the laughter, Cao Cao stood up, moved his shoulders, and walked around the hall twice with his hands behind his back.
Inexplicably, Cao Cao felt a little lighter.
The responsibilities on his body are getting heavier and heavier, which makes his mind more and more heavy, especially under the pressure of hussars, Cao Cao is forced to chase after him with small steps, day and night, he is afraid that he will be pulled down There are too many, and this kind of psychological pressure, Cao Cao has nowhere to vent.
Cao Cao himself is a person with a rather contradictory personality. Of course, everyone actually has good and evil sides, and they are all in conflict. However, due to various interests and power struggles, Cao Cao is more inclined to be evil. side. But Cao Cao still yearns for light in his heart, which makes Cao Cao have those incredible operations after capturing Guan Yu in history. Perhaps at that moment, Cao Cao placed his own good feelings on Guan Yu, and then made himself sink even more in treachery.
But now, Cao Cao seems to think that the hussars are "just so"!
This made Cao Cao feel much better in his heart.
In fact, this kind of emotional transformation in human nature is very simple, just like when I was a child, I scored 59 points in the test, and then I turned around and saw that my deskmate was only 58, and I suddenly felt that my depression was not so strong...
『Order! Cao Cao said loudly, "In the name of apprehending the Jiang thief, an announcement is made to arrest Chang's family!" 』
Those who practice a ceremony in the hall are to retreat.
Turning around, Cao Cao sat down on the head again, and then said to Xun Yu with a smile: "Wen, if you don't have to blame yourself, since the incident happened suddenly and no one reported it, how can you be blamed for this matter?" 』
『My lord…』Xun Yu prostrated himself on the ground, 『Sir…』
『Hey, that’s all for now! ”Cao Cao laughed, and waved his hands as if he didn’t care, “I don’t know how many people in the world claim to be royal family members... Well, then Liu Xuande will not mention it... How many are true? Bong Xiao...'
『The minister is here. ’ Guo Jia replied.
"The matter of Chen Guanling's complaint just now reminded someone..." Cao Cao said with a slight smile, "Since it is the lost daughter in the Cao family's house, I should respond to the prosecutor to track down the robbers and arrest the thief... As for the hussars envoys, I will use them From this point of view, after checking and registering, let it go! 』
Is the reason far-fetched?
Very far-fetched. But with a reason, it becomes. Just like the various reasons that the officials in the dynasty and the bricks in the opposition have said, anyway, no matter whether others believe it or not, there is a reason anyway.
『The one who was robbed...』 Cao Cao narrowed his eyes, looked left and right, and emphasized his tone, 『It’s Cao’s daughter...』
That's right.
It's just Cao's daughter.
Xun Yu and Guo Jia bowed down and took orders to leave.
This thing...
Cao Cao can't deal with Xun Yu, at least now he can't blame Xun Yu for what happened in Xinji, because once he does, he will be tempted by Huqi, as Guo Jia said, and it will become conclusive evidence. Otherwise, is an ordinary daughter of the Cao family worthy of Xun Lingjun's apology?
Similarly, since Xun Yu is innocent, Cao Cao can't do anything to Wang Chang and Wang Chang's subordinates.
Of course, it can be framed.
But at this moment, Cao Cao felt that he didn't want to do this.
You are the prime minister of the great man, and then go to plant the deputy of the envoy under the hussars?
This may be one of the reasons, or it may be that Cao Cao felt an indescribable gratification in his heart after seeing the same perishers.
However, the pleasure is always short-lived. After a short while, Cao Cao entered the form of a sage... er, a doubter.
Rumor?
If it is really a rumor, how did it come about?
How did it spread?
who is it?
Is it a member of the Cao family, a member of the Xiahou family, or...
Cao Cao gradually narrowed his eyes and pursed his lips.
After all, Cao Cao killed Xun Wang in the Xun family in the previous stage. Although not many people were involved, it cannot be said that there were few. So among the Xun family, maybe someone knew something and then spread it out? In this way, does it mean that Xun Yu can no longer completely control the Xun clan? Of course, this is also normal, just like Xiahou Dun is also unable to control the Xiahou clan, even his own children...
…
What Guo Jia said just now was vaguely trying to excuse Xun Yu. Could it be that in his heart, I am not as good as Xun Wenruo as a lord?
In this matter, was Xun Yu really an unintentional mistake, or did he take the opportunity to bet? Where the Xun family is in Shanxi, there are also people!
Sunlight shone into the hall, forming light and shadow on the floor.
Cao Cao sits alone.
Solemn screen, gorgeous table case.
Everything is so exquisite, but in the light and shadow, there seems to be something inexplicable twisting and spreading...
