Chapter 341: Wooing
Pedal Pedal Pedal ~
A sound of footsteps came from far and near, but Gongsun Du turned a deaf ear, when he was practicing martial arts, he was surrounded by pro-soldiers, any idle people, etc., it was absolutely impossible to get close, and he could get close......
"Lord, General He Jin sent an invitation!"
Gongsun Du's sword dance movements were not chaotic at all, light and elegant, but he replied in his mouth: "If you talk back, you will definitely go to the banquet on time." ”
"Yes, my lord!"
The butler answered, and quietly retreated.
It didn't take long for Gongsun Du to change the winged Dapeng knife and began the daily practice of the Liuhe knife. This is almost the daily life of Gongsun Du after he resigned and lived in the Liaohou Mansion, oh, and the teaching of Zhou Yu, and the solution of doubts at the end of every decade.
After a long time, Gongsun Du finally stopped, put away his blade, came to the small pavilion in the courtyard, and opened the invitation card on the stone table.
"Huh! Birthday? Interesting, do you celebrate your birthday every day? Is it three hundred and sixty-five years old in a year? ”
Gongsun Du didn't know what He Jin's birthday was, but there was no news about it before, and now he suddenly sent a birthday invitation, and fools knew that it was fake.
But what did he send the invitation for? Woo ......"
Gongsun Du thought about it for a long time, felt a hint of coolness, and then remembered that he hadn't bathed after practicing, and went back to the room with the invitation.
Afternoon.
As soon as he arrived at the gate of the General's Mansion, an old man dressed as a housekeeper greeted him: "Liaohou, my master has been waiting for a long time, please come inside!" ”
Gongsun Du nodded, and handed over the wrapped gift casually: "General Lao has been waiting for a long time, ashamed!" ”
"Please!" The housekeeper took the gift box and handed it to the next person.
"Please!"
Gongsun Du then entered, and under the guidance of the housekeeper, came to a room outside the door.
"The master has already ordered, and the Marquis of Liao will go in by himself when he arrives." The butler stood on the side of the door and said unhurriedly.
Sure enough, it's a fake!
Although Gongsun Du had expected it, he still felt uncomfortable.
Nodding his head, seeing the housekeeper leave, Gongsun Du knocked on the door.
"Who? Didn't a certain family have ordered not to let any idle people wait to come and disturb them? ”
Listening to this voice, Gongsun Du knew that it was He Jin. He Jin was originally a butcher, only because the little sister was included in the palace, he became a relative, the two brothers and sisters should be together, cough cough, it should be a joint effort, and then one became a queen and the other became a general. But He Jin's voice that he had cultivated over the years because of selling/meat had become something he couldn't change, a big greasy smell!
"Xiaguan Gongsun Du was invited to come, please don't blame the general!" Gongsun Du is not stupid, he still has to bow his head when he should bow his head.
Creak~
"Shengji is here?" The door was opened, and a chubby greasy face appeared in front of Gongsun Du's eyes, beckoning to him, "Quick, come in and talk!" ”
"Thank you, General!"
Gongsun Du thanked him and walked in according to his words.
After entering the inside, Gongsun Du found that Yuan Shao was also there, although he was surprised, he still stepped forward to say hello: "Originally, I haven't seen you for a long time?" ”
"Hahaha! These days, Shao can hear the news of Shengji every day, not bad! Yuan Shao quipped.
Gongsun Du said embarrassedly: "Hey, this person is unlucky, he can't do anything, even if he drinks water, he may be able to choke!" ”
"Ahem~"
A soft cough was heard, and the two stopped talking.
"Shengji, please take a seat!"
"General Xie!"
He Jin saw that Gongsun Du was humble and polite, and his face was quite satisfied.
"This time I came to seek promotion, and I really had something important to discuss." He Jin didn't mention the birthday written on the invitation at all, and said to himself, "It is really ...... eunuchs and party remnants in the court to disturb the court, deceive the heavens, and put Your Majesty in fire and water."
He Jin's words, Gongsun Du didn't pay much attention to it, and talked for a long time, just to win him over. But knowing the roots, will Gongsun Du agree?
Apparently impossible!
Gongsun Du glanced at Yuan Shao, and saw that his clothes were hanging high, and he looked like he had nothing to do with me, and he was both funny and angry in his heart, it's none of your business, what are you doing here, are you patting on the back?
He Jin's voice fell, Gongsun Du seemed to be silent for a long time, got up and bowed, and said gratefully: "There is General Lao to speak for Du, otherwise Du would have already known where to put it." ”
"It's serious, a certain family just can't see their faces!" He Jin waved his hand and said as if he didn't care.
"General Gao Yi!"
Gongsun Du complimented again, and then politely refused: "Thank you for the general's kindness, Randu is only guilty now, but he is just himself, and he will never dare to appear in front of His Majesty again." ”
"Huh?"
He Jin's eyes widened, and he said, "What's the matter, is Shengji suspecting that the official who holds Jinwu is too small?" ”
The atmosphere suddenly became tense!
Gongsun Du was not afraid at all, and said slowly: "The general's words are serious, but Du is wearing a sinful body, His Majesty is hating it tightly, if you see Du, it is difficult to guarantee that you will not want Du's life, so for the sake of a small life, you can only live up to the general's love!" ”
"You ......"
He Jin was furious: "You give Ben a roll!" ”
"Retire!" Gongsun Du Shi Ran saluted and got up to leave.
Yuan Shao glanced at He Jin, who was still angry, and said, "Go down and take a look?" ”
"Hmph~" He Jin snorted coldly, as if he disagreed, but Yuan Shao was saluted, and immediately chased out of the door.
"Shengji, wait!"
Gongsun Du walked not far away, and when he heard the voice behind him, he sighed in his heart: Benchu, Benchu, I finally resigned from the official, I'm afraid I'm going to embarrass you!
Thinking so, Gongsun Du still stopped and waited.
"Why did Shengji go in such a hurry!"
Now, the relationship between Yuan Shao and Gongsun Du is not bad, so he did not beat around the bush, "The general is also a good intention, why doesn't Shengji give the general face and take advantage of the situation?" It's all you and my brother who are under the command of the general, helping each other, even if it's the third duke, it's just around the corner! ”
Gongsun Du also knows that after the Yellow Turban has been suppressed, He Jin's prestige can be said to be in full swing, and it is really a bit faceless to refuse directly, but He Jin ......
After thinking about it, Gongsun Du glanced around, saw that there was no one else, and said in a low voice: "Originally, it was not that Du was unwilling, but that although the general was virtuous, he was not good at managing the army, and he was too close to the queen, and it was difficult to guarantee that he would not be affected by it in the future, so I can only be sorry!" ”
Yuan Shao was unhappy, thinking that Gongsun Du was all excuses, and he didn't give him face. The most important thing is that before, he patted his chest in front of He Jin, promising that he would definitely be able to pull him under his command, but now......
Gongsun Du also guessed this, but he didn't want to stay in Luoyang all the time, so he could only be sorry.
"Hey, Ben Chu, this time it's the degree is wrong, in this way, there are still three hero orders there, it's better to invite Ben Chu to go to the hero building three times by Du Chu, how about it?"
When Yuan Shao heard this, he knew that Gongsun Du had made up his mind and couldn't pull it back, so he had to respond: "Then so be it, you and I have no chance to be brothers, and we can't serve under the general." ”
Gongsun Du listened to these seemingly lost, but actually unwilling words, and shook his head in his heart: The words have come to this, if you don't believe it, there is no way, anyway, there are still several years, it's up to you!!
Subsequently. Gongsun Du left the General's Mansion and went straight back to the Liaohou Mansion, and never left the Mansion again for several months.
Gongsun Du rejected the general's matter but it had already spread in Luoyang, many people thought that Gongsun Du did not know what to do, originally thought that he could rise again, and all the petty officials and officials who wanted to tie up had all lost their minds, but Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun came a few times, and there were many hints in the words that if the general made trouble for him, they would help him deal with it. Even, Lu Zhi came to the door once in a wheelchair......
