Liu Zheng's words are blatant, also because Lu Zhi's favorability has always been 80.

The rebellious words at the gate of the mansion did not shake the other party, and Liu Zheng now has the heart to test some of Lu Zhi's thoughts about himself.

In the past two months, Liu Zheng has never talked about Liu Bei, but Lu Zhi also has a tacit understanding, even if there are occasional letters from Luoyang, Lu Zhi only talks about some family situations or anecdotes about Luoyang, but he is very secretive about Liu Bei's movements.

Today, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, ordinary people are afraid that they have already gone home to worship their ancestors, but Liu Bei will not come back, and Lu Zhi will not even ask the reason.

If you want to say that Lu Zhi didn't know anything, Liu Zheng would never believe it, so he also revealed his opinion of Gongsun Zhan, and the old man thought that he could also deduce that he and Liu Bei were not dealing with each other through his own attitude and the relationship between Gongsun Chan and Liu Bei in the past.

This kind of unkind and unrighteous view can only be guessed by the other party.

Liu Zheng is also afraid, what happened to Liu Shi in the past will affect him after all, even if Lu Zhi sees the extraordinary, his mind can tolerate what ordinary people can't, but Liu Zheng is also afraid of being outspoken so that the other party turns his face and doesn't recognize people, or is depressed - but he still has to say it. He also found that Lu Zhi regarded him as his own, and some thoughts and attitudes were said, and the other party would follow his own logic, rather than holding back his thoughts.

Lu Zhi was stunned for a moment when he heard this, listened to the sound of footsteps approaching in the distance, patted his hands, and said with a smile: "You, you always keep saying something rebellious to scare your teacher." Expressing determination and expressing ideas...... Bullying is the teacher, the rain and the dew are all wet? In the future, there is no need to say too much. Remember, blessings and misfortunes are interdependent. There are many things that are unsatisfactory in life, and it is the truth to be kind to others and support each other......"

"Teacher! Deran ......"

Grandfather Sun Zan walked in quickly, Lu Zhi looked over and said with a smile: "Only by being sincere can you open the golden stone." ”

Gongsun Zhan was stunned, and after a rather steady and mature face condensed, he immediately cared: "Deran, for my brother, I only found out that you were injured, and I heard that you vomited blood?" Has a doctor seen it? ”

"Brother Bo Jue is worried. Zhongjing is here, how can there be anything wrong. ”

Liu Zheng replied with a smile, feeling strange in his heart After Lu Zhi's last sentence, the other party's negative favorability was reduced by 10......

Zhang Ji will also go to the county seat to help people see a doctor on weekdays, he has always had some reputation, and Gongsun Yue Gongsun continues to be here, Gongsun Chan naturally knows Zhang Ji's medical skills, so he also nodded, found a cushion and knelt down, his hands close to the brazier to bake, and wondered: "Teacher, what's the matter?" I heard that it was the black army Zhang Yan who came to the door? The student also learned yesterday that the first horn of the Jizhou thief attacked the gall Tao eight or nine days ago, and the last thief Chu Yan changed his surname to the commander, so Zhang Yan didn't take advantage of this time to stabilize people's hearts, why did he come here? ”

"How would the teacher know. The three of them made trouble in the village, but fortunately they were sent away by Deran. It's just not good to chase again. ”

Lu Zhi shook his head and said, "When you first became the Taishou, you still focused on maintaining stability, and don't provoke those thieves for the sake of brotherly righteousness." ”

He looked at Liu Zheng, "That's what Deran means." Your white horse servants are all family soldiers, and they are not easy to come by. Since there is no damage here in Deran, you can let this matter go for a while. ”

"De Ran has been approached by someone, how can I stand idly by."

While speaking, he glanced at Liu Zheng deeply, and seeing that Liu Zheng's expression remained unchanged, Gongsun Zhan's generous body straightened up, and said with a look of shame: "It's just that this time the teacher doesn't say it, and the students will be sorry for Deran." In fact, Liu Tingshi had already ordered to thoroughly investigate the movements of thieves from all sides in Youzhou, and those soldiers under my command had already been sent out, so they were really powerless. ”

Lu Zhi and Liu Zheng glanced at each other, "What's the matter?" Can you say that? ”

"It's not a matter of the Ten Permanent Servants."

Gongsun Zhan nodded, his face was ugly, "Now the whole Youzhou is rumoring about the corruption of the Ten Standing Servants and their families, that is, the documents sent by the county magistrates from all over the county in Zhuo County, nine times out of ten, this is the case. He also said that he had seen the figure of the thief leader in the city, and it was related to the ten permanent servants, and they sent people to spread it. The teacher didn't know that the students had been in office for more than half a month, and they hadn't even remembered the faces of those county magistrates, but the names of the thieves in Youzhou and Jizhou had almost been memorized. ”

Lu Zhiwan smiled and muttered: "The matter of Liu Thorn Shi abolishing Shi Limu has not yet fallen, and now the anti-thief can only rely on you soldiers...... You must not be impulsive. This troubled water can be waded, but it is still mainly Zhao'an. If they don't listen, you just have to report it to the court and let it decide. ”

After he finished speaking, he wondered, "Aren't they thieves?" What do you do when you promote the crimes of the middle attendants? But what's the secret? ”

The students thought they were following Zhang Jiao's example and bewitching the people in order to use them for their own use. Liu Tingshi also felt so, and asked me to recruit soldiers and horses in case of accidents. ”

Gongsun Zhan glanced at Liu Zheng imperceptibly, "I heard that they are still communicating with various forces, and I don't know what they are doing...... But the teacher also knows that the ten permanent servants can cover the sky with one hand, and they are ...... after all Ahem, maybe it has something to do with the weighing system. I also heard about this when I went to Luoyang, and the teacher should know about it. ”

"When you go out the door, don't even say anything in front of that sentence. Be cautious. ”

Lu Zhi solemnly instructed, and then frowned solemnly, and sighed: "If this is the case, the big man is in trouble......

"Isn't it? There are 500,000 Montenegrin thieves alone, and they may still be absorbing the people these days. ”

Gongsun Chan glanced at Liu Zheng and said with a wry smile: "Students occasionally think about it, this mess really shouldn't be started. It's better to fight Di people in Liaodong, and you don't have to move your brain. ”

It seems that because he has just spent a lot of energy and suffered internal injuries, Liu Zheng is a little sleepy, his eyelids are slightly fighting, then he thought about it and interjected: "Brother Bo Jue, about thieves, if there is anything you can help, you just have to say." ”

"You will recuperate in peace."

Gongsun Zhan waved his hand, but then he also changed his words, "It's just that De Ran can know that they came all the way from Jizhou to find you, what are they for?" ”

Just after being diverted by Lu Zhi in a few words, Zhang Yan came to the door, where was Gongsun Chan willing to be willing.

In fact, when he talked about the Black Army, he paid attention to Liu Zheng several times, and he also wanted to see from Liu Zheng's expression whether he had colluded with Zhang Yan or even participated in this matter.

After all, he had gone to Luoyang before, but he had heard a lot of rumors about the other party's presence in Nanyang, and the news he heard from Liu Bei was even more unbelievable and even appalling.

Gongsun Zhan still can't believe that the little junior brother who used to be honest has suddenly become so unfamiliar, but the news he got in the past ten days, the other party is really beyond his expectations, that is, the farm under his hand and the relationship with the county order of Zhuo County, which surprised him, not to mention Zhang Yan, the three of them dared to come over to meet each other unscrupulously, no matter how you look at it, it seems a little tired.

"I don't know. took a few heads to scare me, saying that he wanted justice for Cheng Zhiyuan...... Most of the people in the village were frightened, and I saw that he had something to say, so as not to provoke criticism, so he could only let people disperse. After that, he had a fight with Na Pinghan, which was a lose-lose situation. ”

Liu Zheng's eyes were wide and closed, his heart was extremely transparent, and he said with a wry smile on his face: "Those heads are not others, they are my Uncle Tong and a few henchmen who work in the village, and they were sent out by me to do business before, but then the bandits made a mess, and they couldn't be contacted for a while." I don't know where the other party knows, so I cut a few that look similar to pretend to be. Oh, there is also Zhang Mancheng's among them. The teacher can testify to this. ”

Gongsun Zhan's face had already changed, and it was not that he hadn't heard of Ping Han that Liu Zheng was able to fight against Ping Han, which suddenly made his heart sink, "Pretending? ”

"Xu wants me to think that someone is there for me, so that De Ran can be jealous, and even leave a connection...... It's not good to say this, we have to look into it. You can rest assured, there is a teacher, and you will never let De Ran be troubled by those gossips again, and you will not let those thieves take advantage of De Ran. Since he was tired, let him rest first. ”

Lu Zhi helped Liu Zheng lift the quilt, got up and said, "I'll wait to go out and talk." ”

"It's fine. Tired of the teacher's hospitality. Brother Bo Jue, there are many inconveniences and rudeness. ”

Liu Zheng was also really sleepy, but he also instructed: "If Brother Bo Jue needs any help, he must say it." My farm is not ......."

"Okay, but it's just a way to find out the news. There are also businessmen among the few sworn brothers of Bo Jue, and they have the identity of Taishou, so are you really short of connections in a farm? ”

Lu Zhi took a torch to start the fire, led Gongsun Zan out of the door, closed the door with a smile and said, "You sleep for a while, and then ask him if he wants you to get up when Zhongjing comes as a teacher." ”

The door was closed, Liu Zheng was stunned, pulled the quilt to the top of his head, and muttered: "But after all, he is an official, and his favorability is -60, and he doesn't ask directly, and I am not allowed to think too much about it as a common person......"

Outside the door, the torch in his hand was taken over by Gongsun Zhan, Lu Zhi noticed many people waiting on the path, and said with a smile: "Do you need to make such a big move? ”

"The teacher lives here, or Zhang Yan sneak attacked, how can the students be lazy?"

Gongsun Chan beckoned to Gongsun Yue, who was waiting on the side, and Gongsun Yue was holding Gongsun Xu, who had fallen asleep, and came over and asked, "Big brother, do you want to take Xiao Xu back?" ”

"No, I don't. Now that he's asleep, take him back to the house. I'll come back to see him tomorrow. ”

Gongsun Chan shook his head, seeing Gongsun Yue hesitating, he said with a smile: "If such a big thing happens, it is difficult to say that there will be no thieves coming to the door in the future, I will let Zhongshu take fifty people to guard here, and Xiao Xu is safer to stay here than me." ”

He looked at Lu Zhi, "It's just that the teacher has to talk to Deran, and let his family go out and take my people with him in the future." After all, the students are the guards of Zhuo County, and if there are students to protect them, even if someone wants to do evil, they must also take care of the student's face. Besides, I'm used to fighting against Di people in Biansai, and when it comes to killing, I'm still better at it than ordinary martial artists. ”

"I have a heart."

The head of the chin motioned for Gongsun Yue to leave, and Lu Zhi smiled and straightened the placket of Gongsun Zhan's clothes, "What are you talking about?" Could it be that Deran will still think you have ulterior motives? ”

He paused, "In front of the teacher, he still said this kind of nonsense. Didn't you hear that Deran was injured and still wanted to help you? ”

Students naturally hear. It's just that if it were Xuande, I wouldn't have to......"

Gongsun Zhan helped Lu Zhi over, and when he saw Lu Zhi pointing to the thatched hut on the side, he also walked over, but out of the corner of his eye, he also caught a glimpse of a few people digging a pit in the depths of the peach orchard, and there were several wooden boxes placed on the side.

He raised his eyebrows slightly, and continued: "But Deran's ability to make students dumbfounded now, and the teacher thinks I can accept it calmly?" I didn't think that he was borrowed to return his soul, and he could still let Xu'er and Zidu stay here, it was already a student's audacity. ”

"Haha, too. It's that even as a teacher, I can't imagine that Deran can do this. ”

Lu Zhi entered the grass hut with a smile, Gongsun Zhan led the torch to light the brazier, and then closed the door and knelt on the bed with Lu Zhi, "Does the teacher have Kao Deran?" Although he has accumulated a lot of money this time, his heart is really simple. ”

"How so?"

Lu Zhi's face did not change, spread out the futon and stuffed it into the case a few times, Gongsun Zhan took it and sat down casually, covered his feet, and said with a dry smile: "The student went to Zhuo County in Luoyang this time, and I have heard a lot of things about Deran. I didn't have time to say it before, and it was not easy to say it in front of Deran, but now I want to talk to the teacher. ”

He recalled, "That time I went to Luoyang, Deran's poetry and literature were appreciated by scholars, and I was also hated by many eunuchs...... I think the teacher knows better than me. The students thought that in the past few months, Deran seemed to have suddenly changed his appearance, competing for fame and fortune, fighting fiercely, and even eight people dared to go up, if he didn't win, it would really make people think that he was a straw bag fool......"

"What's more, it is said that he also had an affair with thieves. is about Zhang Mancheng, not to mention it in advance, and now that he has been approached by Jizhou Black Mountain thieves, it always makes people suspicious...... Students feel that Deran is like ...... Well, it's like a caged bird that has been locked up for a long time, as soon as it gets out of trouble, it wants to make a splash, but it flies high and falls really painfully. ”

"Justified."

Lu Zhi nodded and said, "Judging from the results, your inferences can be described as thorough. But ......"

Gongsun Zhan's heart moved, "Please ask the teacher for advice." ”

"I won't talk about it. You and Fu Nanrong are both taught by the Marquis of Luxiang, and there is Xuande in Luoyang, Wancheng, you should know the inside story. And the matter of Gu'an, and even the cause of Gu'an, is that even the teacher has heard about it in Zhuo County, and you must know it. ”

Lu Zhi's eyes were bright, and Gongsun Chan nodded calmly, and then he heard Lu Zhi say in a deep voice: "As a teacher, I will tell me what I think...... If you really talk about it, the impression of Deran in your heart in the past is just that child who is not good at words. If it weren't for his sudden fame, would you and I be close? Don't say that being close is harmful to him, Deran was injured and cold in Lousang Village in the past, and even Lousang Village was destroyed, at this time, can you and I know? ”

Gongsun Zan was stunned, Lu Zhi looked at the wall of the grass house with heavy eyes, and the direction was where Liu Shi's cemetery was located, "Brother Yuan Qi has a great heart for the Han Dynasty and has a heart to glorify the ancestors, and this matter is known to the teacher." In the past, Brother Yuan Qi treated Xuande and Deran equally, but he was not a Confucian master after all, and it was inevitable that his education would be biased. Xuande's temperament, you and I both know, Deran is silent, but it doesn't mean that he can't think, or even ...... People who don't speak may think more than the average person. ”

Gongsun Chan nodded solemnly.

After that, he was given a wooden slip for his teacher, and he had the intention to let him come over as a military advisor, but you also know that the position of military advisor was won by Xuande, and Xuande has since risen to the top with his military exploits and the weight of his teacher...... It is also because of this that Deran was a blessing in disguise, knew the two brothers, and even recruited troops to achieve a career. ”

Lu Zhi's face was solemn, "What has happened since then, according to your thoughts, is right." But could he have held it for a long time...... When I say this for the teacher, I also want to tell you that your thoughts, after all, come from rumors and are the mouths of others, and the teacher has been by Deran's side for the past two months. ”

Gongsun Zan said solemnly: "Hearing is false, seeing is believing." ”

"Not bad."

Lu Zhi nodded, "Although these words are also conjectures for the teacher, but for the teacher to live up to now, although it is not as good as those great Confucian discerning people, it is not difficult to see something." ”

He pondered his words, his face was heavy, "De Ran values fame and fortune, there is no doubt about it. Even if you and I are sought after, we will definitely be happy in our hearts. They are all mortals, and these selfish intentions can naturally be had, and the important thing is that they override these selfish things. Previously, Deran broke Cheng Zhiyuan's trilogy, and heard small rumors for the teacher. On that day, Zhu was in charge...... It was Zhu Ming, one of his guards in the village, who led people to kneel down and swear, saying that he was loyal to the Han Dynasty, loyal to Deran, and did not forget the Han in seeking fame and profit, and Deran did it. After that, he was designed by Zhang Mancheng, and even forced to bow down due to the situation, he finally talked to Zhang Mancheng in front of General Zhu Zhonglang, trying to save the people of Wancheng...... And he did. Just the last...... It was ruined by the teacher's own hands. ”

Gongsun Zhan frowned and said, "Under the city of Wancheng, no one knows what they say......"

"Have you ever seen blood and tears? Do you think blood and tears are not enough to prove that he wants to save the people? On the contrary, the nonsense he said with blood and tears in the end is enough to prove that he is anxious for justice and righteousness? ”

Lu Zhi's eyes were slightly red, thinking of the scene when Liu Zheng was brought back that day, he was sad in his heart, and then he thought that he had said so many things among the two disciples, trying to harmonize with the disciples, and he was even more sad, "Zhang Mancheng is good or bad, I don't know if I am a teacher, Zhang Yan is good or bad, and I don't care if I am a teacher...... Deran said that killing people is wrong, and the teacher feels justified. As human ministers, you and I can't work for the welfare of the common people in the world, and even force the good to become prostitutes and force others to be thieves...... That's my fault for waiting. ”

Seeing that Lu Zhi's eyes were getting redder and redder, Gongsun Chan couldn't bear it, "Teacher, ......"

"For the teacher to pacify the Yellow Turban this time, how can he kill 100,000 Wancheng, but in the end, what did he get?"

Lu Zhi raised his hand to interrupt, his face sad, "What does that reputation mean to me?" For the teacher...... Don't you just want to make Dahan better? Let the children and grandchildren all be protected by Mingjun! Protected by the Virtuous! But now? How to deal with yourself by killing for the master and apprentice, but achieving nothing?! ”

"Don't be sad, the teacher will come back every day, you may not be able to ......"

"Bo Jue, you and I can afford to wait, but what about the people?"

Gongsun Chan was stunned.

"Today's Montenegrin army comes, you and I endure, tomorrow I see the ten permanent servants, you and I will endure again, he will come out with another Montenegrin army one day, and another ten permanent servants, you and I can still bear it!" But what about the people? Didn't the Ten Standing Servants, the Black Mountain Army, and even you and me come out of the people? Have you and I ever protected them? Let them know that in this world, there are still people and ministers! And Taiping! And a good day for the real Cathay and health! ”

Lu Zhi burst into tears and his tone was hoarse, "As a teacher, I often introspect myself, only to find that nothing has been accomplished." It's just you, Boju...... It can be regarded as a real apprentice of the teacher. Because you have the old with Mrs. Liu in the past, because you have the old with Lu Xianghou, and because you are dedicated to fighting against the Di people, you take the lead...... Even if you are quite knowledgeable and experienced, I want to tell you that I slaughtered Wancheng and suppressed the Yellow Turbans before, and I know that many people are wrong, but the people will be wrong, all dynasties, which time is not you and me, or even ...... Wrong. ”

He took a long breath and looked into Gongsun Zhan's eyes, "Deran has suddenly emerged, for you and me, it is natural to be strange, and even jealous and suspicious...... But the teacher felt that he had great righteousness in his heart and was not taking the same path. For the teacher...... No matter what happened to him and Xuande, it was a private matter in his family and a personal grudge. ”

Gongsun Chan was stunned: "The teacher knows? ”

"If it weren't for the deep hatred in the sea of blood, why wouldn't Xuande even dare to go back to Zhuoxian? Do you really think that you are too old to be stupid? ”

Lu Zhi laughed absurdly, wiped his tears and said: "It's just that the teacher thinks that you are now too guarded, and you think about what you think, but don't stick to the corner anymore and be confined to personal feelings." If you really have anything to say to Deran, or ask him for help, say it to your face...... Although he is impulsive, doesn't he also have a teacher by his side now? And Deran is by no means a person who is unrighteous and unrighteous, and he really wants to let the people of the world live a good life. ”

Gongsun Chan stared at the case and lowered his head in contemplation.

Lu Zhi took a breath, "Think about it more." In fact...... As a teacher, I feel that with your current experience, it is okay to be a county order, and it is still a little short of being a handsome and too guarded. After all, you are not good at internal affairs, and you still need to temper it...... Speaking of which, you also have a thin foundation, and the righteous brothers around you are all from the merchant market...... As a teacher, you don't look down on them, but when you hear and see them, your thinking may not be pragmatic. Pragmatism is not a bad thing, but being an official is not necessarily a good thing for the people. ”

He paused, and said in a deep voice, "You, you should still kill Di people more...... It's about my big man, but I'm more worried about you being out of proportion in the future. Now, let Deran go...... It's best for you and him to be brothers, but you can't, so you can give a thin face to the teacher, and when he enters the soil for the teacher one day, it's not too late for you to mention this matter for Xuande. ”

"The teacher teaches, and the students think about it when they go back."

Gongsun Chan knelt down and sat down, arching his hands, "But the student promised you that in your lifetime, you will never let anyone under your door be a brother!" It will definitely not let Di people shout! ”

He knelt down and kowtowed, "The student swears, as long as the student is in one day, I, the Han people, will never be harassed by the Han!" ”

"If only you had this heart."

Lu Zhi got up and helped Gongsun Zhan, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a relieved face: "It's getting dark, go back." He came to see him as a teacher more than one day...... By the way, if there is already someone around Deran who is attached to you, you can take good care of it. However, the matter still has to be known to the teacher...... As a teacher, I have to help you persuade Deran. Besides, you don't have to worry about Deran's affairs in the future. His farm, you may not be able to follow suit, when I came before, I also heard that the Di people invaded, you probe more, stay in Zhuo County safely, maybe you can ask for orders to lead the troops north, this is much faster than governing Zhuo County. ”

"The students are not talented, but Zhuoxian County must be stable, and it has to be Yang Feng's people......"

"You don't have to worry about that. If you are sad for your teacher, you really don't have to do things? ”

"Teacher, you ......"

Gongsun Zhan's face was shocked, and when he saw Lu Zhi smiling and silent, he suddenly realized, "The student will retire!" The people around Deran, the students will definitely cooperate with it! ”
