Chapter 289

~7 min read 1,373 words

"Move the capital! Does the Lord really think the Great Han will move its capital to Chang'an in the future?"

"Huh?"

Xun You and the others all looked at Guo Jia in astonishment.

Do you even hear what you're saying?

How could they possibly move the capital to Chang'an?

Luoyang is the current capital of the Great Han; how could they move it so easily?

No one would agree to it.

Su Xuan, however, looked at Guo Jia with a surprised expression and asked, "Why would you, kid, make such a guess?"

This kid's brain is a bit too sharp!

With just this little bit of information, he can even make that connection?

"So it's true! My Lord, you really are thinking that!"

Seeing Su Xuan's attitude, Guo Jia felt a sudden sense of certainty and immediately began to analyze: "Everything is deduced from the orders you just gave, my Lord!"

"We all know that you, my Lord, possess the means to calculate fate;"

"We don't know exactly how strong it is, but coming from you, my Lord, it certainly won't be simple!"

"Based on this, what kind of reason would make you, my Lord, prepare to have the Luoyang Su Family Chamber of Commerce withdraw completely in advance;"

"And even have the Secret Guard withdraw the majority of their forces?"

"It's as if Luoyang is no longer that important to the Secret Guard in the future?"

"It can only be that Luoyang itself has become unimportant relative to the state of the world, which is the only way the above situation could occur;"

"And combining this with your order for the Luoyang Secret Guard to relocate to Chang'an, the only thing I can think of is that the Great Han will move its capital to Chang'an in the future!"

"Only in this way can it be explained why you, my Lord, would have the Luoyang Chamber of Commerce withdraw completely and have the Secret Guard relocate to Chang'an;"

"Because Luoyang will be destroyed in the future, and the imperial court will move to Chang'an."

"Hmm! Not only that!"

At this point, Guo Jia rubbed his chin, paused, and pondered: "The fact that you, my Lord, did not have the Luoyang Su Family Chamber of Commerce relocate to Chang'an also indicates that you believe Chang'an will also be a place of right and wrong in the future, unstable and unsuitable for doing business."

"Perhaps even Chang'an will fall into great turmoil and trouble in the future;"

"Tsk tsk... It seems the future is really going to be chaotic! Interesting!"

What kind of great chaos could lead to Luoyang being destroyed and the court being forced to move the capital to Chang'an?

Just thinking about it is exciting.

Xun You and the others were also attracted and shocked by Guo Jia's analysis at this moment.

"Fengxiao, what you said actually makes some sense!"

"My Lord, have you really calculated that Luoyang will be destroyed in the future and the court will move the capital to Chang'an?"

Xun You and the others looked at Su Xuan one after another.

"Hiss!"

At this moment, Su Xuan also gasped as he looked at Guo Jia, shocked: "You kid can analyze so much based on just this little information? Dare you be even more impressive?"

You might as well change your name to 'Divine Calculator'.

"So, was my analysis correct?"

Guo Jia asked with a smile.

He also felt quite a sense of accomplishment in his heart.

It was all thanks to the Secret Guard continuously collecting a large amount of information from all over the country these past few years;

And also thanks to Su Xuan being willing to let him have contact with the Secret Guard and this information.

Otherwise, he really wouldn't have been able to grow to this point.

As for analytical and deductive ability, apart from Su Xuan's fantasy-style version, his own style of analysis and calculation must be based on the information he possesses.

And on that basis, perform reasonable deduction and extension.

"Not bad! You got it all right!"

Su Xuan nodded affirmatively, but then his expression turned solemn: "But today's words must not be spread even a little bit for the time being, otherwise, it will affect the general trend and lead to things getting out of control;"

"This is not what I want!"

"I still hope that things will continue to move along the established trajectory of fate for a period of time, which better serves my interests;"

"And is more conducive to my layout!"

Otherwise, his advantage of foresight would be gone prematurely.

It's not that he couldn't continue to succeed, but it would be much more troublesome.

If there's an easy shortcut to take that isn't dangerous, why not?

Self-sabotage is not advisable.

Of course, Su Xuan was even more worried that if today's words leaked out and caused Dong Zhuo's chaotic rule not to happen, that would be a big problem.

Although the probability of this is low.

It's still better to be careful.

"Understood!"

Hearing this, Guo Jia and the others quickly bowed and agreed.

Hmm! Although it wouldn't matter if they didn't agree, since there is a spiritual contract in place, as long as Su Xuan doesn't agree, they can't leak it anyway.

But the sense of ritual is still necessary.

"Then that's it! Go and get busy with your work!"

"There isn't much time left for us to develop in leisure, so cherish the next few months!"

Saying this, Su Xuan got up and left.

Xun You and the others looked at each other and smiled knowingly.

Following such a god-like Lord is truly reassuring!

At this time, Xun You reminded: "Since the Lord has said that Luoyang will be in great chaos, you should all remember to remind your friends and relatives in Luoyang to avoid it for the time being! So as not to be affected."

"There's no need for that concern!"

Upon hearing this, Guo Jia waved his hand with a smile: "Most of us come from humble backgrounds, so where would we have friends and relatives in Luoyang?"

"Only you, Gongda, have them!"

"Oh! That's not right either! That guy Wenruo is also currently serving in Luoyang, right? Although he is a member of the Xun clan, he can also be considered one of my friends!"

"You should remember to remind him!"

"Wait! That's not right either!"

At this point, Guo Jia frowned slightly and looked at Xun You with a solemn expression: "Gongda! I remember you telling me that Wenruo has a very bad impression of the Lord, right?"

"Yes!"

Xun You nodded with a bitter smile: "You know, he is a man loyal to the Han, and the education and training he received since childhood, as well as the path he chose, are all like that;"

"And he is an extremely stubborn person;"

"He sees part of the Lord's ambition and also sees that the Great Han will be in chaos in the future, so naturally, he has no good feelings toward the Lord!"

"Therefore, this matter really cannot be used to remind Wenruo!"

"Fortunately, with the reputation of my Xun clan and Wenruo's own brains, he will know how to protect himself."

Although there was some worry, it wasn't much.

Besides, to say that he had no anger or opinions about Xun Yu in his heart would be impossible.

Xun You hated Xun Yu's near-predictable stubbornness.

He also received a loyal-to-the-Han education from childhood, so why didn't he end up like Xun Yu?

In the end, the problem truly lies with Xun Yu himself, not just the education.

"That's true!"

Guo Jia nodded in agreement: "That guy is smart! Unless it's a dead-end situation, there's no way he'll be in danger;"

"It's just that if he doesn't change his mind, I'm afraid we will become enemies in the future."

"Is there really no way to persuade him and bring him over to the Lord's side?"

If a talent like Xun Yu joins the enemy, it will definitely be a big problem.

But you can't just kill him, right?

Xun You, Xun Shuang, and Xun Cai would not agree.

Even the Lord, Su Xuan, would not agree.
