The Liang Kingdom was located in the western part of the early Spring and Autumn Period, and it was also considered a coincidence. The country was named Xiliang, and Guo Yu was named the king of Xiliang, and the Duchy of Xiliang was established.

So the five overseas fining countries, namely Western Shu, Nanyue, Nanwu, Xiqin and Xiliang, decided to do so.

Guo Peng had a total of six sons. Except for Guo Jin, the other five sons would be granted the title of these areas, becoming dukes of a place and the lord of a country, and establishing their own imperial career.

After confirming this policy, Guo Jin relaxed a little and felt very happy.

Looking at his appearance, Guo Peng hesitated for a moment and decided to ask.

"What did Ajun tell you before leaving, right?"

Guo Jin was happy, but when he heard Guo Peng ask, the smile on his face disappeared.

"Yes."

"What he said, I can probably guess for my father. He said, he is jealous of you, right?"

"Father is wise."

Guo Jin admitted it, and he felt that there was nothing wrong with admitting it.

Guo Peng nodded.

"In this case, Ajun also told the father that at the beginning of this year, when we were resting in the hot spring, he said to the father. At that time, he felt that the plan for banishment was urgent, otherwise, if the father dies, your brothers will likely turn against each other."

Guo Jin raised his head and opened his mouth to refute, but when he saw Guo Peng's eyes that seemed to be able to see through everything, he opened his mouth and didn't say anything.

After a while, he lowered his head and said, "Father is wise."

He didn't want to lie to his father.

It's true.

Guo Peng sighed.

"You will feel that your brother is still jealous of you and wants to replace him, let alone a concubine's brother, so you feel uneasy, you feel threatened, and you feel that you must drive them all out of Wei to be safe, right?"

Guo Peng said nothing about Guo Jin's thoughts.

Guo Jin lowered his head and refused to speak, and agreed.

Guo Peng was also silent for a while, then reached out and patted Guo Jin on the shoulder.

"I told you a long time ago that the brothers Hu Hai of Fusu and Hu Hai killed each other, and Emperor Wu Liu Ju and his son were killed. In the face of absolute power, family affection is nothing. At that time, I thought you were just a little touched, but now, you should have completely understood, right?"

Guo Jin raised his head in shock and looked at Guo Peng without saying anything.

"Many things that you have not experienced personally will have no say. Imitation does not exist. If you do not experience them personally, you will definitely not understand each other. You did not understand them as your father at the beginning, but now you should understand them."

Guo Jin was silent, and then nodded.

"My son has understood what is alone and what is a high place that is cold."

"That's good, just understand. If you understand, you won't do anything wrong and you won't make mistakes because of a little bit of personal affairs."

Guo Peng took a deep breath: "Your approach is right, but I can't bear to see it for my father, and I think it's good to do it, so I decided to implement the ban. If I don't have such a plan, I can predict the situation where your brothers will be killed in the future.

Of course, your brothers cannot fight you at all. You will only find the flaws in various ways, then punish them and go to jail. I guess the rest of your life will not be easy. If you are more ruthless, your brothers will die."

Guo Jin dared not say that there was no such possibility.

Guo Jun's words seemed to open a switch in his heart, and an emotion surged out, intertwined with his emotions that he was about to become the emperor, completely activateing his single husband's heart.

With his single husband's heart, he felt that he might not have won't do anything like killing his brothers.

Such things have not happened in history.

For example, after Hu Hai ascended the throne, he believed Zhao Gao's slander and killed all his brothers and sisters without leaving any of them, thinking that no one could threaten his status in this way.

This happened and refreshed people's cognition.

From then on, people learned that the royal brothers are all superficial brotherly friendship and can turn against each other at any time.

For the supreme throne, which has only one supreme, they can do anything.

Including killing each other.

When Guo Jin was reading history books in the past, he once criticized the ruthlessness of these power monsters with the teacher who taught him, and denounced them for the evil deeds of killing their relatives for the sake of mere power.

At that time, he made a righteous swear that one day if he was in power, he would definitely be a wise and saint king, and negotiate everything with everyone, and the king and his ministers would get along without any barriers.

But when he himself got to this point, he found that he had become the power monster he hated the most.

He actually thought that he would bury them all if he could not send them away.

My face was slapped and I felt like I was swollen.

But Guo Jin will no longer look back.

For power, status, and future, he will do anything, and he has no way to go.

"Father is wise."

Guo Jin could only say four words in the end.

Because his father foresaw anything he could do.

Guo Peng stood up, sat next to Guo Jin, and hugged him.

"You have already experienced this feeling, which means you can give everything for power. You have already had such a determination. This is the determination that a qualified lonely man should have. Keep going, don't look back, and you can't look back."

Guo Peng hugged Guo Jin tightly: "Power is like a handful of sand. You have to hold it tightly so that it won't leak out. Once you turn around, you won't grasp the power tightly. Power will leak out from the cracks of your fingers. If you want to grasp it, it will be difficult."

Guo Jin nodded.

"Son understand."

"In a short time, you will be the emperor of Wei. Have you ever thought about it? One day, sit on the throne and conceal and exploit the deceptions of those subordinates who want to get everything from you."

"I haven't thought about it before. After my father decided to pass the throne to me, I thought about it."

"What does it feel?"

"A little scared, but a little excited."

Guo Jin took a deep breath: "My son really wants to know whether they are smarter, can get what they want from their son, or whether their son is smarter, can play with them in applause, just like his father playing with them."

"Father never looked down on them. In the past, and in the present, Father may not be smarter than them, but only knows something they do not know."

Guo Peng shook his head: "Now that my father's tricks have been used up. What you have to face next are the imperial examination bureaucrats with unprecedented numbers and unprecedented quality. They are more difficult to deal with and more difficult to control than scholars and bureaucrats. Are you ready?"

“…”

Guo Jin took several deep breaths and slowly exhaled, as if he was calming down his emotions.

"The son has no choice, the son has to face it."

"very good."

Guo Peng was very satisfied with the one-handed husband he had cultivated: "It is difficult to be invincible, but remember the nature of bureaucracy that your father told you, and you will not be blinded so easily.

As long as you are not blinded and you have power, you will always have a way to fight them, but if you are blinded and mistakenly think that the world is safe and there is no problem, then it will be a bad thing."

Guo Peng raised a finger.

"What should you do when they kneel on the ground and shout long live?"

"Think carefully about whether their policies make them feel that they can take advantage of them, whether they completely conform to their ideas and cannot benefit the common people."

"very good."

Guo Peng raised his second finger.

"What should you do when they jumped in front of you and scolded you as a tyrant?"

"Persist in the things they try hard to resist and implement them to the end. All obstacles must be dealt with. If you persist, you will never relax. That is their key point."

"very good."

Guo Peng raised his third finger.

"What should you do when facing a peaceful court?"

"Trying to divide the ministers, set up conflicts, and make them fight each other, and the court officials will never be allowed to be harmonious."

"very good."

Guo Peng raised his fourth finger.

"How to consolidate the central power and prevent the central power from gradually declining and being controlled by the local government?"

"The system of lingyi continues to migrate local powerful and wealthy families to Luoyang, cut off their regional ties, and break up their interests."

"Escape from resistance?"

"Send troops directly!"

"Are any ministers opposed?"

"Discharge, investigate and imprison three generations, and punish them strictly!"

"very good."

Guo Peng smiled with satisfaction.
