Chapter 619: People don't do it for themselves
Indeed, it is not surprising at all to say that Emperor Xian saw Dong Cheng, but it is a little strange to say reward. As an emperor, is there no reason why he would suddenly reward others? If you want to say that Dong Cheng guarded the emperor out of Chang'an, the reward at that time was completely reasonable. But now, without any reason or warning, he suddenly wants to reward Dong Cheng, is it true that Emperor Xian is just interested and happy, so he casually takes off his belt and gives it to others?
Just kidding, isn't it, when did the emperor easily give his personal belongings to others? Even if there are such examples, it is a fairly small percentage, and it is definitely not the norm.
Moreover, in normal times, he may not care too much, but now that Guo Jia has just had such a thing, the whole audience is under martial law, and the palace is specially taken care of, it can be said that any wind and grass in the emperor may attract the attention of the people in Cao Yingzhong. It's no wonder that such an abnormal thing is not noticed now.
"What about Xun Yu, didn't he react?" Guo Jia asked.
"Lord Xun sent someone to investigate, but in the end there was no result, and it was over." Ming'er replied.
"Huh!" Guo Jia sneered, he didn't expect Emperor Xian to play with the edict incident so quickly. Anyway, Cao Cao personally played with the belt, and he couldn't see anything directly, and now that Xun Yu investigates afterwards, it is naturally impossible to find anything.
It's just that whether there is evidence or not, Guo Jia knows very well what kind of tricks Emperor Xian is playing!
Liu Xie, I bought a watch last year! Forgive Guo Jia for scolding people, but now Guo Jia wants to scold! Poisoned and assassinated. Almost died, if you don't want to curse. It is estimated that he is not even a saint, and he can no longer be called a human!
Originally. At the beginning, Guo Jia didn't plan to care about this kind of idle matter at all. Although Guo Jia is from Cao Cao's side, Emperor Xian is also wooing Guo Jia after all, right? Even if Guo Jia never thought that Emperor Xian would be Cao Cao's opponent, but he had a short mouth and a soft hand, and Emperor Xian tried every means to win over Guo Jia, Guo Jia didn't appreciate it, but went over to target Emperor Xian's words. Isn't that a little too unkind?
Besides, Guo Jia has always thought that this is the battle between Emperor Xian and Cao Cao, although he Guo Jia is Cao Cao's person, but in fact it has little to do with him Guo Jia. It's like Xun Yu is also Cao Cao's person, and it is impossible for Emperor Xian to deal with Xun Yu. Also, if you help Cao Cao deal with Emperor Xian, then you will definitely bear a lot of infamy in the future, which is completely different from helping Cao Cao deal with other princes. Let's take Xun Yu as an example. Why didn't anyone scold Xun Yu for being a dog?
It is precisely because of these considerations that Guo Jiacai has never planned to intervene in the matter between Emperor Xian and Cao Cao. Even if Guo Jiaming knew that there was such an incident as an edict, Guo Jia didn't plan to care about it.
Well, now. Guo Jia and Emperor Xian can be regarded as mortal enemies, although now Guo Jia is impossible to kill Emperor Xian to avenge him no matter what, but in other aspects. Is Guo Jia likely to continue to choose neutrality? The matter of the edict of the cloth belt has been bumped into by Guo Jia. Then he will never let go.
Guo Jia just wants to sabotage the plan to dedicate the emperor, that is, to make the emperor uncomfortable. It is to make Emperor Xian unable to succeed, and to let Emperor Xian know that Guo Jia will not end well if he offends him! Guo Jia wants to make Emperor Xian regret, make him angry, make him anxious, make him miserable, and Emperor Xian can only be helpless about all this!
"Send someone to monitor Dong Cheng for me, who he has seen in private recently, and who has seen him, all of them have been recorded for me." Guo Jia immediately commanded.
Put a long line to catch a big fish, Guo Jia knows very well that now that he finds Dong Cheng, even if he can turn over the secret edict, then only Dong Cheng will be arrested in the end. Only by letting Dong Cheng bounce outside for a while, can he find out a series of people who have opinions on Cao Cao and try to oppose Cao Cao!
I have to say that Guo Jia still has some selfish elements in it.
Because usually, the danger must be nipped in the bud, Guo Jia let Dong Cheng go, Dong Cheng will indeed contact more people, and if he takes action at that time, if he is not careful, the rumors will be revealed, and the group of people will know that if they don't rebel, they will be arrested and killed, and they must all be directly reversed. When the time comes, will it be easy to stabilize the situation?
And if you shoot directly at this time, there is only Dong Cheng alone, so other Dong Cheng has not yet contacted people with lofty ideals, even if they have ambitions, if they have nothing to do with themselves, without organization, without consulting with others, under the premise of being determined, may anyone have any action?
If it is said that if it is unified today, there is no foreign enemy anymore, then it is absolutely understandable to choose the former and never suffer in the future at one time, even if there is a little conflict, it is not a big deal, because it can be completely controlled. However, the current situation needs to be stabilized even more, and it is clear that the latter is slightly more appropriate.
But Guo Jia chose the former, because Guo Jia was for revenge! Guo Jia just wants to make Emperor Xian think that he is going to succeed, think that he sees hope, and when he sees the future, he will destroy it again! In this way, the blow to Emperor Xian is the heaviest. If the danger was directly nipped in the bud at the beginning, then Emperor Xian would probably only be slightly disappointed. Only the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
Also, remember the story of the Bian Que brothers? It is said that Bian Que's elder brother has higher medical skills than Bian Que, just because Bian Que usually takes action when the patient is seriously ill, while Bian Que's brother can treat the patient before he is seriously ill. Therefore, on the surface, it seems that Bian Que's elder brother is inactive and has no reputation, but Bian Que is famous all over the world.
Nowadays, it is also the same truth, take precautions, take precautions, nip danger in the bud, although it can be appreciated, but it is only appreciated, people are not really facing danger, no matter how great the possibility, it is only a possibility, and the credit for that possibility will never be counted on you.
And when people really face a huge crisis, after people feel the fear and oppression, if they take action, it is definitely a great achievement!
That's why promotions in peacetime are never as fast as in wartime. It's ironic to say that a monarch who keeps the people away from the chaos of war, lives in peace, and has zero casualties among the people and soldiers, can never compare to those kings who defeat strong enemies with difficulty, and even if they easily defeat strong enemies, it will be damaged. As a result, whether it is historical evaluation or the support of the people, the latter is often far more than the former.
Guo Jia has never been a good person, let alone a saint, if it is Zhao Yun, it is estimated that he will disagree with Guo Jia again. But Guo Jia just has to wait until things become serious and wait until they make things bigger, because only in this way will Guo Jia be a big hero and Guo Jia will get a big credit! If people do not do it for themselves, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed. (To be continued......)
