Kuai Yue had already had an idea about the questions raised by Cai Mao.

"Gan Ning, Sun Hao, Sun Fu and others, and are the dogs who are stranded. Can they really control the Jingzhou soldiers? Will the Jingzhou soldiers obey their orders or the orders of Huang Hansheng and others? After the envoy died, they will have no backers, no backers, and there will be an army to support them?

Prince Qi is in Jiangling, not in Jiangxia. As long as we can control Prince Qi, we will not worry about what Huang Zu will do. In this way, the situation will be determined. Prince Cong will naturally not oppose Emperor Wei in Luoyang like the envoy. What do you think?"

Kuai Yue looked at Cai Mao and Kuai Liang.

Cai Mao and Kuai Liang looked at each other, but they didn't know how to express their emotions for a while.

But there is only one thing they are sure of.

They absolutely did not allow Liu Biao to start a war in Jingzhou, turn Jingzhou into a battlefield, and turn their property into ashes and destroy them.

Their ancestors have been deeply rooted in Jingzhou for generations and developed in Jingzhou. They have taken countless risks. The ancestors of all generations have finally worked hard to build this ancestral property. Now should we watch this ancestral property be buried for Liu Biao?

Absolutely impossible!

Liu Biao did not have any re-creation to everyone, but was just following the times. If Liu Biao insisted on turning Jingzhou into a battlefield and harmed their interests, they would take all necessary or unnecessary actions to ensure that their interests were not damaged.

Although they do not want that day to come, if that day comes, they will not hesitate at all.

When it is necessary, they must use any means to protect their interests from harm. This is their last bottom line and final persistence, and it is the most bitter irony of Liu Biao.

Liu Biao was pushing them hard at the necessary moment, forcing them to take action and do such a ruthless thing.

The anger in the hearts of the people of Jingzhou was burning, and their dissatisfaction with Liu Biao, the foreign ruler, was increasing day by day and expanding violently.

The conflict between the two sides is about to break out.

At this necessary moment, Guo Peng also had a symbolic discussion with his ministers on whether to launch a war in Jingzhou and Yizhou.

After becoming the emperor, Guo Peng set the rules himself to standardize the number of government affairs meetings that were not specified in the Qin and Han dynasties, and stipulated that the emperor would officially start every five days and three hours. When encountering emergency situations, the Wu Dynasty and even the evening court would be held from time to time to discuss emergency military and national affairs.

Soon, the officials figured out Guo Peng's habits.

The morning court once every five days is like a work summary meeting, bringing some important government affairs issues and solutions to the court over the past five days, so that officials and deputy officers of various central departments can understand it, know how it is handled, and then listen to everyone's opinions symbolically.

In fact, how to deal with these things is actually done during the afternoon or evening.

Although Guoyuan and Cui Yan submitted a statement to dissuade Guo Peng from "indulging in pleasure", this may be their stress response to the party and fining disaster that was too strict in the Huan Ling era. Seeing Guo Peng expanding the eunuch's quota, he was worried about this, so he submitted a statement to dissuade him in time.

However, although Guo Peng stipulated that every five days, it was not really that he would meet his ministers once every five days. He held the Wu and the evening courts every day, and the state affairs that should be discussed were not lost at all, and he was definitely not a monarch who was negligent in politics.

Of course, it is impossible to discuss government affairs with thousands of officials in the entire Luoyang City. It must be just a matter of discussing with the heads of some departments.

The military and national affairs were discussed with these people, and the handling results were made, and the execution was issued. Then, a summary meeting was made at the five-day court meeting. The trivial matters were to let the people below solve them themselves. Anyway, they were summarized in the Cabinet Audit Department. If something really happened, they would investigate it to the end.

When I go to court every day, let alone Guo Peng himself, the first thing I can't stand is the ministers.

Some of them live in remote places in Luoyang, and it takes time and effort to go to the palace. When they get up before dawn, they will get up before dawn. They can't sleep even if they are sleeping, and they will have to die of overwork in a few days.

Guo Peng also dealt with the reactions from Jingzhou and Yizhou in Wuchao.

The formal morning dynasty was held in the Fengtian Hall, the main hall he established, while the Wu and the evening dynasty were held in his personal study, Qinzheng Hall.

Fengtian Hall is a symbolic existence and a symbol of supreme power, and the Qinzheng Hall is the core of power of the entire Wei Empire.

Guo Peng’s personal study is here, and Guo Peng’s confidential secretary’s cabinet’s workplace is also here.

In addition, there are only some important eunuch's offices here, and other offices are outside the palace and within the imperial city.

This also shows Guo Peng's attention and closeness to the cabinet.

Every time Guo Peng handles government affairs, he would ask Cao Cao, the chief minister of the cabinet, to discuss with other ministers, and then make a decision. The cabinet would draw the order on his behalf. Guo Peng personally approved it, and then issued the specific department of the Shangshu Desk to be responsible for the implementation.

With the right to audit, the importance of the cabinet began to be clearly highlighted. As a result, within a few months, the number of people who went to Cao Cao's mansion to send friends and make friends increased exponentially.

Cao's mansion was crowded with traffic, and there were endless people coming to visit and give gifts to try to make friends. Cao Cao told Guo Peng more than once that he didn't even dare to go back to his home.

I was afraid that as soon as I appeared, I would be surrounded and killed by those who were eager to ask for land and ask for help.

Guo Peng laughed loudly, very interested in this.

However, Cao Cao still quite understands what Guo Peng is trying to hand over the cabinet to him.

Because not everyone can control the audit power. Cao Cao is Guo Peng’s wife and brother, and he is his own. He can offend some people who are very powerful, so he is not afraid of some people.

Not everyone can meet this condition.

Guo Peng was relatively relieved to put this power in Cao Cao's hands, because he was behind Cao Cao and he was closest to him, so he also brought Cao Cao with him when handling government affairs, showing his trust in Cao Cao and giving him a stand.

This time, the incident of Liu Zhang becoming emperor and Liu Biao becoming king was held in the Qinzheng Hall. Even the Censor Guo Hong and the Censor Zhongcheng Qiao Rui were called to attend the political meeting to prevent the ministers from discussing too fiercely, which would lead to the failure of manners in front of the palace.

In fact, there is nothing to discuss in the fundamental goal. People who call themselves emperors and kings should call on the benevolent and ambitious people of the world to attack the pseudo-official dynasty together. So what else is there to discuss?

Beat him! Kill him!

The question that everyone argues is whether to send troops to Jingzhou first or Yizhou first or two groups advance together.

The ministers divided into three factions, fierce debates and passionate arguments. If Guo Hong and Qiao Rui had not spoken in time to stop them, these people would have really fought.

"The first time the new dynasty was established was when it was necessary to defeat the enemy to promote its national prestige. It was time for two groups to advance together to fight against the rebels! If the rebellion was not wiped out in one breath and delayed for a long time, I still don't know what variables would arise!

Your Majesty, I think that no matter what, this battle will be carried out, advancing in unison, attacking Jingzhou and Yizhou, sweeping all the enemies in one breath, unifying the world, and demonstrating the orthodox of our Wei!"

Minister of War Dong Zhao was determined to be war-oriented, not only to fight, but also to advance troops from two groups, pacifying the south in one breath without giving anyone any extra fantasies.

Dong Zhao defeated the prisoners and then surrendered in the process of Guo Peng pacifying Yuan Shao. After surrendering, he served as county magistrates and county magistrates in various places and made good political achievements.
