The Three Kingdoms: The Cold Gate World

Chapter 388 Rebuilding Order
The new year is coming, and Chengdu's trade fairs are more prosperous than ever.

The end of the new year is just around the corner, and people who have worked hard for a year will take out their surplus grain to buy necessities for life, so there is a lot of traffic and noise in Chengdu.

On the road leading to the north city gate of Chengdu, the frost and snow had been cleared away, and a figure that had fallen behind the curtain was walking slowly towards the city gate.

Dressed thinly, with a bag on his shoulders, his hair and beard were slightly gray, this man turned a deaf ear to the hustle and bustle on both sides, and walked indifferently.

Suddenly there was the sound of horseshoes behind him, and the people on both sides looked at the man riding the horse.

In Chengdu, horse riding is only allowed on the main roads, and it is forbidden to ride horses in densely populated markets. Anyone who passes by must dismount and walk.

However, on the avenue near the gate of the city, unless it was the Taiping Army, few people would let their horses run wild.

The common people saw that the horse rider was handsome, young and handsome, with an indescribable majesty in his expensive clothes, and they couldn't help but look at the young man with kindness and respect.

The steed galloped forward, blocking the middle-aged man who was carrying a burden.

"Master Ye?"

Cheng Gongying was surprised by Guo Ye's appearance.

Guo Ye got off his horse, came to Cheng Gongying, and asked regretfully, "Sir, do you really want to go back to the fields and live in seclusion?"

After Han Sui was wiped out a few years ago, Guo Jia recruited his generals, not caring about their talents. He was hired by Guo Jia, and Cheng Gongying was obviously forgotten by Guo Jia, and Guo Ye was taking care of him when he stayed in Chengdu.

Over the past few years, Guo Ye has not consulted this counselor for any official matters, but only to take care of him in life.

Now, Cheng Gongying plans to go back to the northwest to live in seclusion, Guo Ye heard this and came after him on horseback.

Cheng Gongying is like a useless person, he is obviously disheartened, Han Sui's death hit him hard, he can't be loyal to Guo Jia.

Nodding with a calm expression, Cheng Gongying has decided to go, so there is no need to say more.

Guo Ye looked up at the sky, let out a breath of foul air after a while, and led the horse to Cheng Gongying. Guo Ye stretched out his hand and said, "Everyone has his own ambitions, and Ye will not force you to stay, Mr. Ye. It is a long way to the northwest, so I will give this horse to Mr. Walking. Please mount your horse, sir."

Cheng Gongying looked at Guo Ye with complicated eyes, and was about to refuse.

"Please get on your horse, sir."

Guo Ye repeated again, his tone was sincere, not a threat.

The hospitality was unbearable, Cheng Gongying got on the horse, and was about to say goodbye to Guo Ye, but saw Guo Ye pulling the rein and leading the horse and walking towards the city gate.

"Just let Ye give Mr. a ride."

The two joined forces and became the focal point on the avenue leading to the city gate.

The people who stopped and watched were whispering and talking about who the man on the horse was.

Guo Ye, many people can say that they are very familiar with it, even many people watched Guo Ye grow up in this city, a humble and upright son.

But no one recognized the man on the horse, he was just a commoner in his attire, but Guo Ye could lead the horse for him. Many people guessed that this man was a big shot.

At this moment, Cheng Gongying was the focus of attention, and his heart was full of complexities. He could vaguely hear the sound of copper coins colliding in the parcel hanging behind the horse, and he closed his eyes tightly.

It was freezing cold, and Guo Ye led his horse to send Cheng Gongying off until a mile outside the city before stopping.

"Go sir, have a safe trip."

After speaking, Guo Ye bowed his hands and turned back.

Turning the horse's head, looking at the tall and straight figure flanked by frost and snow, Cheng Gongying said loudly with a struggling look on his face: "Young master, I'm not enough to help you become a hegemony, but please don't worry about it, young master."

Although among the counselors from the Northwest, Cheng Gongying may be the talent behind Jia Xu in Liangzhou.

But a hundred Cheng Gongying can hardly compare with Jia Xu.

After walking a few steps, Guo Ye turned around and smiled slightly.

"Father said that I am born with talents that will be useful. Talents are not for competition. I can benefit the common people as much as I can. If my talents can benefit hundreds or thousands of people, it will be the luck of the world. Returning to the right path in the chaotic and chaotic world is what my father is doing, sir, what is a grand plan and hegemony? If this is a peaceful and prosperous age, no matter how many wolves and ambitious people are, they are just clowns."

After finishing speaking, Guo Ye turned around and went back.

Cheng Gongying turned his horse's head and drifted away from Guo Ye.

On the way back to the city, Guo Ye suddenly stopped, and ten steps away stood a man, a man of extraordinary valor.

"Is General Zilong healed?"

Guo Ye took another step, walked up to Zhao Yun, and looked up at Zhao Yun who was taller than him.

Zhao Yun looked into the distance, and Cheng Gongying had disappeared from sight.

In the city, I happened to see Guo Ye leading a horse for Cheng Gongying, and Zhao Yun followed out curiously. He didn't expect to see the scene of the two parting.

When Zhao Yun came to Chengdu, he lived in the military barracks of the Taiping Army City. No one restricted his freedom. He could watch the drills of the Taiping Army soldiers and walk freely in the city. No one even stopped him from going out of the city.

But when Jiangling was still occupied by Guo Jia, Zhao Yun was afraid that innocent people would be implicated if he fled.

He is a general, and it is his duty to kill generals and enemies. There is already a lot of blood on the killer, but as a general who saves the crisis and helps the needy, he cannot ignore the lives of innocent people, otherwise he is no different from the brutal Cao Cao who slaughtered the city.

"Who is that person?"

Zhao Yun looked away and asked softly.

Guo Ye held out his hand, and the two walked towards the city together. Guo Ye also told Zhao Yun about Cheng Gongying's affairs without any concealment.

"Loyalty is uncompromising, this is a hero."

Zhao Yun raised a wave of respect for Cheng Gongying, and it is commendable that he did not succumb to the force of the Taiping Army.

Guo Ye just smiled slightly at this, and asked back: "Why didn't General Zilong ask me, since he refused to be loyal, why did my father let him go?"

Zhao Yun was also puzzled and asked, "Why?"

"If Mr. Cheng Gong would change his family to serve others, then he would have surrendered to my father long ago. Since Han Sui is dead, Mr. Cheng Gong will go as long as he goes, and he will no longer pose a threat to the Taiping Army."

Guo Ye said softly.

Zhao Yun was silent for a moment after hearing this, and suddenly asked: "Young master, if my lord is not dead, the Lord will not let me go?"

Guo Ye looked at Zhao Yun, and smiled lightly, without any sense of mystery.

It is a clear answer.

Can Zhao Yun understand Guo Jia's approach and put him back to Liu Bei's side. Will Guo Jia and Liu Bei fight in the future and let Zhao Yun kill the Taiping Army?

If Guo Jia really does this, he will inevitably encounter internal dissatisfaction.

"General, your time in Chengdu is not short, what do you think of Chengdu?"

Guo Ye asked Zhao Yun as if he was chatting with a friend, even though Zhao Yun was already a hero who killed the Yellow Turban on a horse when Guo Ye was born.

This question made Zhao Yun feel very heavy.

He didn't want to recognize Guo Jia's deeds, he didn't want to recognize the territory under Guo Jia's rule, it was the most peaceful place he had ever seen in all his travels, even Cao Wei, who was under the command of the emperor and the princes, couldn't compare to it.

"Stable order."

Zhao Yun's answer was only five words.

Guo Ye was surprised by Zhao Yun's answer, it seemed that Zhao Yun saw all this clearly.

"Since the general has hit the nail on the head, do you still think my father is a sinner in the world?"

Zhao Yun was silent and found it difficult to answer.

The decline of the world and social turmoil are not a matter of how many people died or how much wealth was destroyed.

Everything comes from order, the cornerstone of civilization.

Guo Jia's governance is to re-establish the order that has been trampled and destroyed. This is the essential content. A series of administrative or military measures are all to ensure the realization of this goal.

The rich and the poor, the strong and the weak, the likes and dislikes of the high and the low, this is the social situation at any time and at any time. Everyone lives and works in peace and contentment. In comparison, there are still poor people, and naturally there are rich people, but there must be order to maintain this world.

Poverty is not the problem. The problem is whether there is a way to get rich and whether there is a way to solve the crisis of survival.

In the past, during the Yellow Turban Uprising, if the people hadn't been forced into desperation, who would have risked their lives?

Who destroyed the order of the Han Dynasty?The first to bear the brunt is the emperor of the Liu family, followed by the relatives who formed a party for private interests, the gentry, and the eunuchs, and finally the careerists who took advantage of the opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

Recovering the mountains and rivers and unifying the country is not a simple matter of killing all the enemies.

If it was just killing people, Guo Jia would have achieved dominance long ago.

Guo Jia spent 20 years establishing a brand new order. More people need to realize the importance of this order, and supporters need to work together to maintain this system, from officials to civilians, from the ruling class to the ruled class.

When outsiders want to destroy this system, Guo Jia has supporters who are united to resist together.

After ten years of hard work, what Guo Jia wants is not only a strong army, but also the hearts of the people who support him, as well as the support of the masses of officials and people, so that everyone can affirm his deeds from the bottom of their hearts and be able to unswervingly Carry on because they are on the right track.

Of course, there must be some people who will be dissatisfied with Guo Jia, and there will only be a small number of dissatisfied people, those who only care about self-interest and disregard morality.

"General Zilong, I have heard a lot about Uncle Liu Huang's life and deeds, but with all due respect, I don't think he has much talent or ability to benefit the people with what Uncle Liu has done. Maybe he didn't Strength does not belong to the territory, so the talents in this area cannot be displayed, but one day, if Uncle Liu Huang stands in front of me, I will kill him, because if I want to choose an emperor between my father and Uncle Liu Huang, even if my surname is not Guo , I will not choose Uncle Liu Huang."

At the gate of the city, Guo Ye suddenly stopped and said to Zhao Yun solemnly.

Zhao Yun frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Who said that my lord wants to be the emperor? After clarifying Huanyu, he should be the emperor who suffered in Xuchang and ruled the world."

Guo Ye snorted and smiled.

"General Zilong, my father said that you are a rare fierce general in the world, a man who understands righteousness, but in my opinion, you simply ignore the common people. The emperor of Xuchang? He was Dong Zhuo's puppet from the moment he ascended the throne, and then he became Cao Wei Shi A puppet for several years, he has been at the mercy of others for the first half of his life, and he ruled the world? Can you guarantee that he will be a good emperor in front of me? Your loyalty and courage are between the common people and a puppet emperor , is this the choice you made?"
