Chapter 235 Rise and Fall at the Fingertips

Zhao Kuangyin and the other two came out of the cave gate, and suddenly "Woom wool..." A barking broke out. Zhao Pu was startled without hesitation. When he turned around, he saw a big black dog very fierce and was about to pounce on it, but the chain was brushed on his neck and could only yell. Zhao Pu immediately cursed: "This dog has no sight and doesn't know me yet."

"Shut up!" Kuang Yin shouted at the dog.

The black dog stopped barking and shook its tail.

Zhao Pu laughed and said, "Suddenly I remembered that man, just like a dog, and only after the owner was watching him, he understood something; the owner could not be afraid of it, hahaha..."

Kuang Yin pondered: "The force is still very high, and it is good to use troops in wars."

Zhao Pu advised with kind words: "In fact, if a person goes up shirtless, he may not be able to fight a dog. But no one can say that a human is inferior to a dog!"

"That's true." Kuang Yin nodded.

Zhao Pu looked around and stepped forward and whispered: "Lord, do you say that on that day, will he quickly recognize the Lord and go to your lord to beg for mercy? By the way, I heard that his wife is beautiful and beautiful..."

"What do you think about those things now?" Zhao Kuangyin said seriously, "It's too early."

But Zhao Kuangyin immediately remembered the beauty Yang who threw it out of his hand, and couldn't help but mutter: "It's indeed like a dog!"

...

In the Privy Council, Wei Renpu was holding a piece of wood toy and scratching his back. He hadn't taken a shower for many days. Fortunately, the weather was cold these days, otherwise it would be even more inconvenient. He has been living in the Privy Council, so sleeping and eating is naturally not a problem, or taking a bath is not very convenient. Tonight, he has to use some hot water to wipe it, and he feels really uncomfortable.

At this time, Wang Pu had returned to the Privy Council. Wei Renpu took out the things on his back and put them down, shrugged his shoulders and rubbed his clothes for a while. Seeing that Wang Pu had already walked into the study, he clasped his fists and said, "The King of Envoys is back, how about it?"

Wang Pu bowed casually, walked over and said, "The official family has nodded. When I saw the official family, I was very weak and could not speak very much, but I was not confused yet."

Wei Renpu sighed and couldn't help but say, "Now we order the adjustment of defense, there will be no chaos, right? Or, is it necessary?"

Wang Pu said: "If there is no need, why should I go to the sickbed of the official house to talk about military affairs at this time?"

Wei Renpu was very decisive when he heard his tone and was speechless for a moment.

Wang Pu looked cold and said bluntly: "The army was deploying defenses when it was just returning to the court, and there was a lot of omissions in a hurry!"

Wei Renpu also did not argue with him because he was the Privy Councilor at that time, and the defense map was mainly made by him, and he would definitely be recognized by him in the end. Now Wang Pu completely denies that he does not give any face. He is so straightforward, and he is indeed a little unhappy in his heart, but he doesn't care too much. Wang Pu is just a person who doesn't give face in what he believes... He has the same temperament, and what is the point of working together?

Wang Pu said in a deep voice: "The two troops of the Hujie Army's left wing control the two south gates of the inner city at the same time, and the remaining troops of the left wing are all in the south of the outer city; the troops in front of the hall are all in the north city. If such defense is done, once someone takes the risk, they will not be able to stop them in a short time and they will directly enter the imperial city!"

"Who would suddenly raise an army at this time?" Wei Renpu pondered.

Wang Pu said bluntly: "Zhao Kuangyin, Guo Shao!"

"Didn't Guo Shao leave Beijing to find the elixir?" Wei Renpu said.

Wang Pu said coldly: "Envoy Wei thinks he will leave Beijing? He must be deploying a mutiny now to rush into the palace, and there are also people waiting for him in the palace!"

"This...this..." Wei Renpu said, "Will the King of the King say he would scare me? Guo Shao dared to raise an army by himself? The official family just fell ill, and no one could become a big deal. The forces of all parties were complicated. Guo Shao only had the left wing and had no advantage. He was crazy? Does the King of the King of the King have evidence?"

"I guessed." Wang Pu said.

Wei Renpu was stunned.

Wang Pu said: "Guo Shao and Zhao Kuangyin must be secretly happy now. They think that the people in our Privy Council are fools. The city defense is deployed like this, so they will give them a chance... At least there is a Crane Control Army in the north of the city, especially the Guo Shao's troops in the south of the city, which is really very loopholes. If Guo Shao really wants to succeed, he will have to thank the envoy Wei for helping him."

Wei Renpu glared and said, "The King of Kings can't say that! Where did you place me like this?" He thought about it and asked, "Why did Guo Shao mutiny?"

Wang Pu said: "Because he believed that Zhao Kuangyin would definitely change.

I have said a long time ago that Zhao and Guo cannot maintain balance at all. If there is any disturbance, they will have to fight to the death. This so-called checks and balances will intensify the conflict and are not conducive to national stability. Zhao Kuangyin and Guo Shao have fought many times since the Northern Expedition. I don’t believe that Deputy Envoy Wei can’t see it. At that time, the officials could still shake the scene, so they dare not go too far, so they had to quietly, but now they have been flirting with each other for a few months, and they have been holding their anger!

As soon as the queen was in power, Zhao Kuangyin knew that the situation was not good; Guo Shao always thought about the other party, but could he not understand it? Now that he learned that the queen was trapped in Jinxiang Hall and Guo Shao's backer was threatened, he was in a hurry to run away, but he wanted to go out of the capital to find the Dan... to fool me?"

Wei Renpu frowned and said, "I still think Guo Shao is a little weaker. Besides, he is a martial artist after all. The situation is too complicated and very dangerous. To do that, it requires not only careful and complex deployment and premeditation, but also very courageous!"

"I didn't expect Deputy Envoy Wei could be confused," Wang Pu said coldly.

He opened a cabinet, took the key to open a drawer, and took out a thick stack of files from it and placed it on the table. "If Deputy Envoy Wei doesn't believe it, then take a closer look at what Guo Shao did every job. Is this a brave warrior who only relied on his bravery? Of course, I didn't believe it very much. This man was born a wandering orphan, and later he was a young man. He didn't even know who he learned to write. In theory, he could not have great insights at all. If no one believed in him, he could have much knowledge, but the facts were in this document, and he had to believe it."

Wang Pu said: "When the urgency is over, Deputy Envoy Wei can fully study Guo Shao's previous battles. It is really interesting. I have worked hard to find out the small battle in Wuqi Town recently. This matter is put together with the famous Huainan general Chai Kehong, and then watch the Northern Expedition to Zhuozhou... you will find three things very interesting."

Wei Renpu flipped through it a few times, and suddenly a piece of paper fell out, with a long and short sentence written on it. Originally, Wei Renpu was not interested in looking at this thing at this time, but he could not help but read it after just a glance:

The peaks and mountains are like gathering, the waves are like anger, the mountains and rivers are like Tongguan Road. Looking at the western capital, I feel hesitant. I am sad that the Qin and Han dynasties have been passed by the palaces and palaces. The prosperity of the people will suffer; the destruction of the people will suffer!

"Who wrote this?" Wei Renpu asked immediately.

Wang Pu said: "Guo Shao."

Wei Renpu and Wang Pu looked at each other and fell into a long silence for a moment. The vast years, like waves of the country, the glorious civilization, and countless spectacular scenes suddenly flowed into their eyes.

Outside the antique and elegant wooden window, the rain dripping like countless tears.

"Actually..." After a long time, Wei Renpu's face turned pale and he mustered up the courage to look at Wang Pu, "Envoy Wang, have you ever thought that if the official family can't get better for a while, the country must have someone to take charge of major events. For loyalty and overall situation, there must be a place to go."

Wang Pu turned around, looked out the window, and said lightly to Wei Renpu, "The official family has the kindness of knowing the ministers. I am only loyal to the official family, and I can't think too far."

Wei Renpu couldn't help but say again: "Do you remember last autumn when we went to see the situation where the Hujie Army left wing was mobilized out of Beijing? I think Guo Shao's speech in front of the army was quite interesting." At that time, Guo Shao said nonsense, as if he wanted to be the defender of the Great Zhou.

Wang Pu did not answer.

Suddenly, Wei Renpu seemed to have realized something, so he quickly picked up the defense map brought back by Wang Pu and took a closer look.

At this moment, Wang Pu suddenly turned around, his small eyes were very bright, and he asked coldly: "What did Deputy Envoy Wei see?"

Wei Renpu frowned and shook his head and said, "It's too complicated and I can't understand it for a while. When Wang Envoy showed it to me, he was very hasty and didn't pay much attention."

...

On Guo’s mansion, Guo Shao was stroking Cao Tai’s back: “Empress Cao only entered the palace at the earliest tomorrow. Can you go in?”

Cao Tai said: "Of course, the eunuchs in the province, the eunuchs in the midst of the family can go in."

"It must be dangerous to let Eunuch Cao go deep into the tiger's den alone, but at this time, everyone involved in this matter will affect the direction of the major event." Guo Shao said.

Cao Tai glared and said, "The Queen and countless people are in danger. A castrator from the Za family has a bad life and a bad life. He has already put life and death aside!"

Guo Shao said seriously: "Eunuch Cao must not be demoted, what's wrong with eunuchs! There is a poem saying, "Burn the piano and boil the cranes and the people are full, and ask the world the same among the flowers. The noble talks and high-profile discussions are all upright, and there are old men who carry swords and bows. "The Grand Historian is a eunuch, Gao Lishi, and Cai Lun is also admired by the people for generations. Some eunuchs are more beneficial to the country and the people than those who seek fame and reputation. People are good or bad, let alone eunuchs? In a critical moment, Eunuch Cao's actions are both loyal and righteous, which is many times higher than most people in the world."

Cao Tai said blankly: "I heard for the first time that being an official can be so high-pride and noble?"

Guo Shao patted his shoulder: "It has nothing to do with being an eunuch, it has something to do with being a human being. In short, Eunuch Cao is also a crucial person on the side of the queen. We will enjoy the blessings and be hard to bear together in the future."

Cao Tai nodded and said, "I have to do good things and still have to think about living. Isn't it that I have no blessings?"

Guo Shao said, "It's up to Eunuch Cao in the palace. I wish you a successful journey tomorrow morning."

Cao Tai quickly returned the gift and bowed.

At this time, Zuo You entered, took a few pieces of paper and said, "According to the lord's arrangement, I have drafted all the things to avoid missing tomorrow. Please see what this arrangement is like?"

Unexpectedly, Guo Shao immediately took out a booklet, and looked at what Zuo You wrote in the messy lines and scribbled handwriting on the booklet.
