Although his destiny was right in front of him, Guo Hong was still a little hesitant when he decided to fulfill his promise.
His family has never opposed the eunuchs, and he himself has never opposed the eunuchs. So was his choice correct or incorrect?
Standing on the opposite side of the eunuch, can he get everything he wants?
With the fear of not knowing the future, Guo Hong straightened his clothes and formally walked out of the gate of Sili Xiaowei's Mansion.
Outside Sili Xiaowei's mansion, Liu Bei sat upright, holding a bamboo slip with written words in his hands, looking at Guo Hong with a serious face.
"Liu Bei, do you know what you are doing?"
"Be aware."
"Do you know what Yique's letter means?"
"It means the final shock to injustice in the world, and it means the final protection of justice. The position held by Guo Xiaowei is the final support for justice in the world! What Bei did, and Guo Xiaowei's decision, are the final struggle for justice in the world. ! This is the last struggle for righteousness in the world!"
Liu Bei shouted loudly, his voice reached his ears, and what he said surprised Guo Hong.
He was surprised by the weight of Liu Bei's words, and also surprised that this was not part of the script.
Was this added by Liu Bei himself?
But if you really want to put it this way, that’s what Yique’s letter really means. The original intention of the people who created this system may not be this, but the people who use this system may actually reach a dead end. So helpless people who have no choice but to use this road.
For everything Liu Bei said, the powerful people would just laugh it off, because they did not have the situation of reaching a dead end with no way out.
Even if there is no road, they can easily create a way out.
However, for those at the bottom of society, isn’t this the last way to save their lives?
Zhang Fei heard it.
Liu Hui heard it.
Zhen Yan also heard it.
Those who had the intention or intention also heard it.
They each have their own ideas.
However, what they all realized together was that after Liu Bei's description, their actions suddenly became infinite justice.
And Guo Hong knows very well that the atmosphere has been set in place, and what he should do is to let the plot continue. If he doesn't play for Liu Bei, who else can play for Liu Bei?
So Guo Hong stepped forward, took the bamboo slip from Liu Bei's hand, unfolded it and looked at it.
The content is very simple, to plead grievances for twenty-six county governors, including my father-in-law.
They obviously did not make any mistake, but they were about to be deposed because of inexplicable and unfounded charges. One-fifth of the county guards in the Han Dynasty were questioned together. This was the first time since the founding of the Han Dynasty, which was earth-shattering!
Is there clear evidence of their guilt?
If not, why do it?
Because of such injustice, the people in their territory came to complain for them!
Could it be that justice among the world has been destroyed to this extent?
Guo Hong looked at the petition written by Yi Que and felt that Liu Bei's talent was indeed extraordinary. He was worthy of being a master of debate and a great poet of the Han Dynasty.
Being able to get to this point in Luoyang City with an ordinary background, being able to hang out with people like Yuan Shao, and even being valued by Yuan Shao, he is really talented!
And it is said that he is also a clan member of the Han Dynasty...
I didn't realize before that this person had such talent and potential, and that with so many people's attention and encouragement, his path would be limitless in the future.
In this case, if you can help him and get connected with him, there may be unexpected rewards in the future?
After thinking this, Guo Hong stretched out his hand to help Liu Bei up.
"I have felt your will, and I also understand what you want to do. The letter from Yi Que is indeed the last line of defense to safeguard the justice of the world. If this line of defense fails, where will the justice of the world be? What I mean What’s the point of continuing to exist in this position?”
Guo Hong took a deep breath, and his whole spirit became high-spirited.
He stepped forward, bowed solemnly to the people surrounding the Sili Xiaowei Mansion, and then said loudly: "Liu Xuande has clearly informed me of your requests. As Sili Xiaowei, I am concerned about this matter. It’s our responsibility!
Even if you risk your life for your request, I will send it to the palace so that the emperor will know that I will never let you down! If you still have any doubts, I will set off now and tell this matter to heaven! "
Guo Hong turned to look at Liu Bei and stretched out his hand to him.
"Xuande, would you like to go with me?"
Liu Bei's face was filled with excitement and his face turned red.
"It's my wish, but I don't dare to ask for my ear!"
"Hahahaha, good!"
Guo Hongsui and Liu Bei held hands and walked towards the palace together. The crowd followed them all the way from Sili Xiaowei's Mansion. They stopped when they reached the street in front of the palace and did not dare to move forward.
Guo Hong turned around and saluted everyone again.
"Let's stop here. Further ahead is the imperial palace, which is the forbidden area of Tianjia. You all, please stay. The general and Xuande will go forward together on the next road. We will not give up until we reach our goal!"
"That's right, everyone, please stay. I will walk with Colonel Guo on the next road. No matter what, even if I risk my life, I must let it go to heaven!"
Liu Bei also stepped forward to help and saluted together.
The members of the team reacted in a timely manner.
"With the words of Captain Guo and Liu Lingshi, why shouldn't we believe it?"
"If even Guo Xiaowei and Liu Lingshi can't do it, we can't do it even more."
"We dare not enter the forbidden area of the palace. I only hope that Guo Xiaowei and Liu Lingshi will succeed in one fell swoop and uphold justice in the world!"
That's really good.
Liu Bei gave them a thumbs up in his heart.
They speak really nicely, all of them are talented, and super interesting. Liu Bei loves playing with them.
So, with everyone's "ardent expectations", Liu Bei and Guo Hong entered the palace and embarked on the road to submit a letter to Yi Que.
This road is relatively long, and there are few people around. Guo Hong can walk smoothly due to his status as the school captain.
As Liu Bei was walking, a question suddenly came to his mind.
Among the people at the back, how many of them really knew the inside story of this matter without any fluctuations in their hearts, how many were moved by this matter, and how many of them knew the inside story of this matter but were still moved by it. Moved?
The former must be a cold politician.
The latter are idiots.
The last kind is probably the legendary [Pillar of the Country].
Liu Bei felt that he should be the former, because he had never been moved by himself. He knew very well what he was doing and what the consequences would be, and he could probably predict what benefits he would get.
Other than that, he felt nothing more.
So, what about Guo Hong?
Liu Bei turned to look at Guo Hong, and happened to see Guo Hong looking at him.
"I have heard about Xuande's talent for a long time, but when I saw him today, it was true."
Guo Hong first started talking and praised Liu Bei.
Liu Bei felt that this was not a compliment, but more like a sarcasm.
So he smiled bitterly.
"Who would be willing to take this road unless they were forced to have no other choice? But people often say that wealth can be found through danger, and wealth cannot be obtained without taking risks. Guo Xiaowei must think so, right?"
"That's true. When Chen Situ came to see me, I was really frightened. What's the difference between coming to me about this kind of thing and asking me how to write my epitaph on the tombstone?"
Liu Bei chuckled.
"That's not the case. Eunuchs would never dare to openly kill people in this situation, and the emperor probably wouldn't allow them to do this. I suspect that the emperor is waiting for someone to talk to him about this matter so that he can have a You can walk down the steps.”
Guo Hong raised his eyebrows and looked at Liu Bei sideways.
"Xuande, making irresponsible remarks about your Majesty is not something a minister should do?"
"This is not a wild opinion, it is a reasonable guess. The monarch often cannot tell the truth and needs room for people to guess. Whoever can guess the monarch's mind correctly will get the monarch's favor. This has been happening since ancient times. , what is a false argument?"
Liu Bei grinned.
"Liu Xuande is such a sharp-tongued man. Mr. Lu really has a good student."
Guo Hong praised: "I heard that you were of ordinary origin, but you were appreciated by Duke Lu and accepted as a disciple. Originally, I was wondering why Duke Lu only chose you when he had so many good choices. Now I understand, Xuan De, you have a bright future."
"Colonel Guo is ridiculous. Whether he has a bright future depends on whether he can survive this incident."
Liu Bei smiled modestly and said, "Only when you survive this experience can you have a future. Otherwise, there will be no way back."
"I don't want to hear this kind of thing. Now, you and I are on the same road. If you don't have a way back, how can I be better off?"
Guo Hong waved his hands repeatedly: "Say something nice, it can be considered a good meaning."
“Everyone is willing to listen to good things, so who will listen to the truth?”
Liu Bei sighed and said, "What is written on this bamboo slip is all nice. Even if it is not nice to the emperor, it is nice to us. So who should we listen to tell the truth?" Woolen cloth?"
Guo Hong thought about it for a while and found Liu Bei's words interesting.
"What Xuande said is quite profound."
"It's just nonsense. Please don't pay attention to Colonel Guo."
"Of course, I won't care."
Guo Hong paused and then said slowly: "How involved is Xuande in this matter? How many of these people were brought in by Xuande?"
"From the beginning to the end, until now, I have participated personally and dare not slack off."
"Xuande is really candid."
Guo Hong said with a smile: "No wonder Yuan Benchu values you so much. Even Yuan Jiujiu is trying to get you. Xuande, if you become successful in the future, don't forget that I am standing on the edge of life and death with you today."
Liu Bei smiled.
"That's natural. Today's experience will never be forgotten no matter what. However, there are two other people standing on the edge of life and death with us."
Guo Hong understood.
"Indeed, there are two others."
Guo Hong turned his attention to the east of where they were. On the other way into the palace, Situ Chen Dan and Yilang Cao Cao were also walking on the way forward.
