Zhuge Mu laughed when he heard Liu Xie's words.
Even though he felt that his speech just now was a little... Hmm... Well... Forget it, I won't comment on it.
However, he managed to deal with it in the end, didn't he?
With the emperor Liu Xie backing him up, no one with a bit of insight would continue to make things difficult for him.
Liu Xie stood up and looked at Cao Cao.
"Sikong, zhen is not feeling well. I will entrust the hosting of the court meeting to my beloved minister!”
Liu Xie didn't care whether Cao Cao agreed or not. He stood up and left the Hall of Proclaiming Virtue with the help of the eunuchs.
After Liu Xie left, Zhuge Mu, who was at the bottom of the stairs, immediately stopped.
Before Cao Cao could look at him, Zhuge Mu retreated without batting an eyelid.
Seeing this, Cao Cao did not expose Zhuge Mu's thoughts.
After lamenting in his heart that this kid was cunning, he put all his attention on controlling the court.
As expected!
With Zhuge Mu's help, when Cao Cao proposed to attack the Wuhuan, there was almost no opposition in the court.
Such a scene was something that Cao Cao would never have dared to imagine.
Comparisons were the only thing that mattered!
Thinking of this, Cao Cao secretly glanced at Zhuge Mu, who was hiding in a corner of the hall. He wondered if he should…
He had thrown Zhuge Mu, this slippery little fellow, out in advance to disgust those officials.
"Shu Zhi, well done!"
"It's just that when I spoke just now, my expression was a little too exaggerated!”
Returning to his original position, Zhuge Mu was about to let out a sigh of relief when a familiar voice suddenly sounded in his ear.
He turned around and looked!
If it wasn't Guo Jia, who else could it be?
"Chancellor Guo, why aren't you standing in your own position? Why are you squeezing into my corner for no reason?”
"Aren't you afraid that the ceremonial officer will publicly refer to you? At that time, Lord Sikong's face will not look good.”
Zhuge Mu rolled his eyes at Guo Jia.
Unexpectedly, Guo Jia did not care about Zhuge Mu's teasing.
"If His Majesty was around, Jia would naturally be cautious!”
"Although you and I both know that the emperor is just a puppet, if you accuse him of disrespecting the emperor, Jia's situation might not be any better than yours.”
What he meant was that the Emperor was not around, so he did not need to worry about etiquette. In any case, Cao Cao was there to cover for him.
Thinking of the friendship between Guo Jia and Cao Cao, Zhuge Mu really couldn't refute it.
After pondering for a moment, Zhuge Mu asked Guo Jia,
"Chancellor Guo, do you know when Lord Sikong is preparing to mobilize his troops?”
Guo Jia, who already knew the inside story, had no intention of hiding it from Zhuge Mu. He said bluntly,"We'll depart from Xudu in early May at the latest.”
"In July, they should have already left the Great Wall to fight the Wuhuan.”
"If the war goes smoothly, we should be able to make it back before it snows in the north.”
A hint of helplessness flashed across Guo Jia's face. He looked at Zhuge Mu with a hint of resentment in his eyes." If it wasn't for you, Shu Zhi, who told the lord that he must first resist the foreign invasion before he could stabilize the country, the lord wouldn't have been so eager to resolve the disaster in the north.”
"A month of war preparations is still too tight.”
"What about you? According to the lord's current high regard for you, I think he will bring you along when he goes to war.”Guo Jia asked Zhuge Mu.
"At that time, are you prepared to lead the army to follow the lord's central army, or be the vanguard of the army?”
"If you have any ideas, you can tell me here in advance. Jia believes that she can still speak in front of the Lord. When the time comes, I might be able to make some arrangements for you when I formulate the military strategy.”
Zhuge Mu didn't answer Guo Jia's olive branch immediately. Instead, he asked Guo Jia a question that he had always wanted to ask.
"Chancellor Guo, why are you helping me?”
"Mu, if I remember correctly, we haven't met five times since I arrived in Xu City.”
Zhuge Mu's question stunned Guo Jia.
Obviously, even a genius like him would never have expected Zhuge Mu to ask such a question.
"Why…"
Guo Jia sighed." Maybe it's because of our affinity!”
"Although you always show a cold attitude towards me, I don't see any disgust for Jia in your eyes.”
"The eyes can't lie about this.”
As if he had thought of something, Guo Jia's voice became a little lower.
"Jia once had a good friend who interacted with me like you, but he had already died of illness for a long time.”
Zhuge Mu could easily guess who Guo Jia was referring to.
Talent for acting!
A person whose talent was not inferior to Guo Jia, Xun Yu, or Cheng Yu, yet he recommended Guo Jia, this god-given genius, to Cao Cao before his death.
Noticing Zhuge Mu's thoughtful look, Guo Jia said frankly,""You're right. That person is Jia's deceased good friend, Xi Zhicai!”
"However…"
"You guessed it so quickly…"
Guo Jia's tone paused slightly, and he suddenly let out a sigh.
"Jia, shouldn't you praise me?"
"You are indeed worthy of being the hidden unicorn that can command an army of a million.!”
