The Three Kingdoms: The Cold Gate World

Chapter 123 The Empress Appears
Sending secret letters to the two brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu was just an embarrassment for Guo Jia. If Yuan Shao dared to establish a new emperor, it would be tantamount to breaking his own arm. If the orthodox emperor of Bian escaped from trouble, the anti-Yuan Shao forces would be immeasurable. As for Yuan Shu, Guo Jia was also trying his luck.

To Guo Jia's surprise, both brothers returned a secret letter to him.

Yuan Shao asked Guo Jia to fight Dong Zhuo and rescue the emperor in a domineering tone. If he succeeded, he would recommend Guo Jia as a former general in the future.

Faced with this reply, Guo Jia didn't try to guess what Yuan Shao's plan was, whether he really wanted Guo Jia to respond to him from the southern military operations, or the original intention of letting Guo Jia and Dong Zhuo dog bite the dog, in short, Guo Jia knew Yuan Shao is not stupid, but he will definitely not be used by Yuan Shao. What he has to do now is to recuperate and work hard in Yizhou.

Although Yuan Shu's reply was not as loud as Yuan Shao's, it also meant to command his subordinates. Yuan Shu's letter also asked Guo Jia to send troops, but not to fight Dong Zhuo, but to fight Liu Biao.

The purpose of this letter is well known to passers-by, to use Guo Jia as cannon fodder to consume Liu Biao, and Yuan Shuhao to clean up the mess.

Compared to Yuan Shao's reply, Guo Jia replied to Yuan Shu's letter, and the letter poured bitter water. After the defeat of Jingzhou last year, Yizhou rebelled repeatedly. It's okay to fight Liu Biao, but how can we fight without food?
After replying to Yuan Shu, Guo Jia didn't worry about it anymore. Why did Guo Jia, who was in the remote corner of Yizhou, want to get involved in the melee of the Kwantung princes?It is because he wants to gradually establish his position in Yizhou through this kind of diplomatic means, and to show his favor to the Yuan family is more to make the world recognize him. If even Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu can publicly recognize Guo Jia’s rule in Yizhou, at least Half the people in the world will no longer call Guo Jia a traitor.

The same is true of the refusal of Dong Zhuo's offer of security. Although nominally submitting to the Chang'an court, there is an edict from the emperor to pardon Guo Jia and admit Guo Jia, but the Kanto princes will not admit it. They crusade against Dong Zhuo. The princes are against each other, this is Guo Jia's political stance, anyway, Guo Jia did not publicly say that he would overthrow the Han Dynasty, he now only needs to change himself from a thief and bandit identity to an equal status with the princes.

This spring, Guo Jia was very busy. The farming system was implemented before the spring plowing, and the worried people returned to the fields to work.

In the general's mansion, he discussed with Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao about building a new village. Guo Jia named the village Taoyuan Village, hoping that the orphans of soldiers living there could enjoy peace forever.

It is very common for men to farm and women to weave nowadays, and the name of Shu brocade is well-known far and wide, but the cost of Shu brocade is high, and only dignitaries can afford to buy clothes. It was nothing more than mediocre, and the brocade robes made of Sichuan brocade embroidery were luxurious and exquisite, but Guo Jia didn't have any of them.

Guo Jia's not wearing it doesn't mean others don't wear it. Yizhou officials are frugal, but it doesn't mean that other local officials will be frugal. Therefore, Guo Jia plans to let the women in Taoyuan Village embroider Shu brocade, and the finished products will be sold by Zhen Yu.

After all, this is a luxury product, the output is not large, and it is not a big burden for the people of Taoyuan Village, but the return is high enough to allow them to have enough food and clothing.

After sitting on his knees for a whole morning, his legs were a little sore. Guo Jia stretched his waist, picked up the tea on the table and took a sip, and saw the big and small Joes on the left and right looking at him with smiles, and asked: "Aren't you tired?" ?”

Xiao Qiao stood up and came behind Guo Jia, pressing a pair of soft little hands on Guo Jia's shoulders, kneading them gently.

Da Qiao poured a cup of tea for Guo Jia again, and said tenderly: "The general puts the people first, and when Taoyuan Village is built, it will be another merit. Not only will the lonely and helpless children have a place to live in the School of Hundred Schools, but also Being able to work hard to become a talent is beneficial to oneself and the people, and the widows and widows can be taken care of by the general in Taoyuan Village, which can comfort the pain of losing their husbands and children, and their future lives will not be helpless."

Guo Jia didn't dare to accept this, Da Qiao put money on his face, he couldn't accept it calmly, in the final analysis, the war was caused by the warlords, and the soldiers who died in battle were all for Guo Jia's hegemony, the succession of the dynasty, almost no Without bloodshed, it is Guo Jia's responsibility and obligation to appease the people of one side so that they can live and work in peace and contentment.

Patting Xiao Qiao's limp little hand on his shoulder, Guo Jia smiled wryly and said, "Little Qiao, you should stop pinching it, it's no different from tickling."

Xiao Qiao turned her mouth up, exerted some strength in her hands, lowered her head and asked, "What about now?"

Guo Jia shook his head, Xiao Qiao tried harder and asked again, Guo Jia still shook his head.

Xiao Qiao gritted her teeth and tried her best, but Guo Jia hesitated for a moment, then nodded helplessly.

Although her hands were sore and limp, Xiao Qiao pursed her lips and smiled quite contentedly.

Xiao Ren, who was outside the hall, came in and said, "My lord, there is a woman outside asking to see her. She claims to be Wu Yi's younger sister, Wu Cheng."

Empress Wu?
Is Liu Bei's future wife here?
Guo Jia said, "Let her in, oh, by the way, what is Wu Yi doing now?"

How did Xiao Ren know who Wu Yi was? When attacking Yizhou, Xiao Ren was escorting the Zhen family and Cai Yan.

Seeing him shaking his head, Guo Jia asked him to go down to check Wu Yi's recent situation. In fact, Guo Jia didn't know what this captured general was doing. Almost all the generals under Liu Yan's command were killed by Guo Jia when he entered Chengdu. If they don't stay, it's really hard to say whether Wu Yi will live or die.

After a while, the young girl in Tsing Yi and white skirt who was hired by Ting Xiuya stepped into the hall calmly.

Guo Jia looked over and saw that Wu Cheng was young and a little young, but she had a holy and beautiful face, three thousand black hair poured down like a waterfall behind her, and she had a high-quality temperament. express any fear or resentment.

"You..." Guo Jia just opened his mouth, and he was stunned before he could finish his sentence.

Wu Cheng untied the ribbon around her waist, took off her clothes and pleated skirt, and moved in one go without the slightest delay. Moreover, she held a pair of small scissors in her hand, picked up her clothes and skirt, and cut them in half. Apparently, dresses and skirts were out of the question.

The upper body was wrapped in a white bellyband, and the lower body was only wearing obscene trousers. Wu Cheng threw the scissors and the unwearable clothes and skirts on the ground, raised his face and said calmly to Guo Jia: "Please let the little girl's brother go, General. "

Wu Cheng, with bare shoulders and bare arms, makes people feel a little blasphemous at this moment. Guo Jia guesses that she is at most 17 years old. Even though the spring is beautiful in front of her, Guo Jia does not have the slightest lust. Compared with the tender Zhen Jiang and the gentle Cai Yan, they are almost charming. After six or seven years, maybe they will have a chance to compete for beauty.

Quite a smart person, Guo Jia has to look at Wu Cheng with admiration. It is definitely not a secret that she entered the General's Mansion, and her clothes are all unwearable. Guo Jia has a wicked heart for her. She gave her away for nothing, but she will definitely be able to save her brother. Guo Jia has no evil intentions towards her. She put on new clothes and walked out of the General's Mansion. Does anyone still believe that Guo Jia didn't do anything to her?

"Don't look, don't look."

Just as Guo Jia came back to his senses, he was about to speak, but Xiao Qiao's hands covered his eyes.

Guo Jia didn't know whether to laugh or cry, did he treat me like a brat who had never seen a female animal in his life?
What catches your eyes?I've never heard of an orgasm that can be seen by looking at a woman's arms, but Wu Cheng's collarbone is very beautiful, and there are peonies embroidered on her white bellyband...

Xiao Qiao tightly covered Guo Jia's eyes, but she was quite strong at the moment, and Guo Jia's eyes ached from her pressing them down.

Da Qiao got up and went down, picked up the cloak she was wearing when she came from the seat beside her, went to Wu Cheng and put it on for her, and said softly: "If you have something to ask the general, as long as it is reasonable, the general will definitely not make things difficult for you." , Now that you are doing this, you are obviously blackmailing the general, but it is making it difficult for him."

Da Qiao's alluring beauty obviously made Wu Aunt feel a little amazed, but more moved, she tightened the cloak and wrapped her body, Wu Ao lowered her head a little ashamedly.

She didn't want to do this either, but her brother was in trouble, and the only bargaining chip she could bargain with Guo Jia was a daughter. She had heard that the wives and concubines around the general were all as beautiful as heaven, and she was afraid that she would not be able to sacrifice herself, so she had to use such vulgar means Blackmail Guo Jia.

Guo Jia, who was sitting on the main seat, was covered by Xiao Qiao and couldn't see anything, but when he heard Da Qiao's words, he sighed that Da Qiao was still considerate.

Is it possible for me, Guo Jia, to embarrass you, a womanizer?If there is something to say, if there is reason and evidence, will I still play a rogue?

After Wu Cheng's exposed spring light was blocked by the cloak, Xiao Qiao turned her mouth up and let go with a displeased expression. She stared at Wu Cheng with a hint of hostility, then walked to Guo Jia's side and looked at Guo Jia, her expression changed Resentment.

Tears welled up involuntarily from the pain in his eyes. Guo Jia lowered his head and rubbed his eyes. After blinking with red eye circles, he finally felt better. Looking at Xiao Qiao, he found her pouting at Wu Cheng, meaning to send her away quickly. that woman.

Guo Jia couldn't help laughing, then looked at Wu Cheng, and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Wu Cheng frowned slightly, he had already announced his identity when he came, why did the general ask knowingly?
"Please, General, release my elder brother Wu Yi."

freed?

Guo Jia was wondering, Xiao Ren walked in, cupped his fists at Guo Jia and said, "My lord, I have found out that Wu Yi has been imprisoned in the city prison since my lord entered Chengdu."

Coughing twice in embarrassment, Guo Jia is really ashamed. Since Wu Yi was captured after the fall of Jiange Road, Guo Jia has never seen him. At that time, attacking Chengdu was the top priority, and Guo Jia could not be hesitant. Give Liu Yan some breathing space, so the work of recruiting and accepting rebels is temporarily put down. After entering Chengdu, he was busy with political affairs. He really forgot about Wu Yi. Even if the generals below know, for a captured general, Don't worry too much. As for the counselors, they probably got too busy and forgot about it. After all, Guo Jia relied on less than ten people to deal with the affairs of Yizhou.

"Hey, go and bring Wu Yi up."
