Chapter 027: The Intention Is Not Here
Liu Xiu carefully looked at Wu Junhou with some strange eyes for a while, and then shook his head and said, "Wu Junhou, do you think I am the kind of genius who can learn as soon as he learns?" There are still two hours to go before the competition, are you a little late to teach now? ”
Liu Xiu is confident, but he is not confident enough to be narcissistic, and he doesn't believe in any myths such as secrets, as long as he takes a look at the secrets, he will immediately change from waste materials to masters, and he can directly compete with a thief like Yan Rou, and beat him wildly, domineering. Regarding Wu Junhou's proposal, he intuitively thought that it was Wu Junhou joking with him. He suddenly remembered that Mao Zong had said last night that Wu Junhou had been injured, could there really be such a thing? It can't be a brain injury.
Wu Junhou smiled slightly: "You also know that this matter is not child's play for the Mao family or Zhuoxian, do you think I will laugh at you for such an important matter?" ”
Liu Xiu narrowed his eyes, thought for a while, and also felt that Wu Junhou might not be joking, as soon as he thought of this, he suddenly felt a little excited, is there really any way for a master to make a quick decision, this kind of good thing can also be encountered by me?
……
The sun rose from the valley, Liu Bei stood at the door for the third time and looked outside the house, but still didn't see Liu Xiu's shadow, so he had to put the breakfast that was already cold on the table and cover it, and then looked at Gongsun Zhan, who was stopping and doing the final inspection, and said: "Brother Bo Jue, as soon as you put on this Xuan armor, you are really a hero." ”
Gongsun Chan glanced at him a little proudly, smiled, and was also very satisfied with the armor and robe sent by Mao Zong. He was already handsome, and with this brand-new robe and armor, he looked even more heroic, he was plain and a little conceited, and he didn't feel that he couldn't afford Liu Bei's praise. He picked up the bronze jacket on the case, put it on carefully, tied the red strap, and walked out of the door in the shape of a dragon.
Mao Zong led the white horse, standing in the courtyard with an iron spear in his hand, and when he saw Gongsun Zhan striding out, his eyes lit up, and he laughed loudly: "Brother Bo Jue, just with your momentum, it is enough to make that Huoyun defeat without a fight, and flee from the wind." ”
"Nonsense." Gongsun Chan scolded with a smile, stepped forward, took the reins, tried the strength with the saddle in his hand, and flew on the horse, his movements were clean and neat, without a trace of mud and water, which attracted Mao Zong and Liu Bei to admire again. He took the iron spear handed by Mao Zong, turned it around in his hand, and then crossed the saddle bridge, looking forward to Zixiong: "Two virtuous brothers, let's try the horse?" ”
"I was about to see Brother Bo's stunt." Mao Zong and Liu Bei laughed in unison.
Hearing Gongsun Chan and them, more than a dozen people walked out, and when they saw the majestic Gongsun Chan with a horizontal spear and bright armor in the courtyard, everyone unanimously praised each other, and the applause was endless. Gongsun Zhan raised his hand reservedly, signaled to everyone, and said in his masculine male voice: "Everyone, how about going to the peach forest to try the horse?" ”
"That's right." Everyone responded in unison.
Gongsun Zhan's waist and abdomen were forced, and as soon as his feet touched the horse's belly, the white horse neighed, spread its four hooves, and rushed straight to the courtyard gate, and arrived at the door in a blink of an eye. Seeing that Gongsun Chan was about to hit the lintel, everyone was about to scream, but they saw Gongsun Chan suddenly lying on his back on the back of the horse, passing through the gate without a gap, and running towards the peach valley.
The crowd shouted again and rushed to the door.
Lu Min, who heard the noise in the front yard, happened to walk out of the gate of the second courtyard, and saw the scene of Gongsun Chan rushing out of the house, he frowned, his face was a little unhappy, he turned around and entered the door again, and walked through the atrium in small steps, and came to the hall. Lu Zhi walked out of it, moving his fingers and said, "What is the noise in front of?" ”
Lu Min told what he had just seen, and finally said: "This Gongsun Chan looks dignified, but he is a little self-conscious, but I am afraid that he will not be a polite person in the future." ”
Lu Zhi glanced at him and said with a smile: "Young man, he hasn't read many books seriously, and it is expected that some things are not done properly. Although I think this son is a little arrogant, his surname is bold, and he is smart and knowledgeable, at least he is a talent of a hundred miles. ”
Lu Min was going to talk about it later, but seeing that his father praised Gongsun Chan a lot, he didn't want to say anything more, so he had to respond. While serving Lu Zhi and sitting down, he said, "Father, Gongsun Chan is talented, but I'm worried that he is not that Yan Rou's opponent. ”
Lu Zhi was noncommittal, thought for a moment, and then sighed: "Maybe...... We're getting a little impatient this time. ”
Lu Min was stunned for a moment, looking at him inexplicably.
Lu Zhi raised his head, his gaze swept over the blue-black roof of the front yard, looked at the blue and transparent sky, and frowned slightly: "I thought about it carefully yesterday and felt that Liu Yuanjun's consideration was not unreasonable. Although Mao Qin advocated strengthening defense, I think his purpose was not to benefit Xiangzi, but more to take this opportunity to revive the prestige of Xi Mao. And the other big families like Sanmao and the Li family, the Zhang family, and the Jian family are no exception, they want to show their strength to Liu Yuanjun and Wen Fujun, so that they can grab more interests and rights in the future, not necessarily for the people. If you really want to fight, even if you can defend Zhuoxian, can you still defend the whole territory? ”
"That'...... You can't let Xianbei people come and go freely, right? Lu Min said unconvinced.
"The eleven counties of Youzhou, Zhuo County is located in the southernmost part, and the Xianbei people do not have enough strength to go deep into Zhuo County, and they also need to obtain salt and iron from Zhuo County." Lu Zhi looked at Lu Min with emotion and said, "Who do you think are the people who are trading with the Xianbei people?" It's not these big clans, they have benefited from the trade, how can they start a war lightly? Alas, my father and son were just pushed out as decorations. ”
Lu Min was silent, he felt that Lu Zhi had a point, but he was a little unwilling to admit it.
The father and son were relatively speechless, and after a while, the servant brought breakfast, and the two began to eat in silence, listening to the bursts of cheers from outside, Lu Min's heart was a little heavy.
In the peach valley, Gongsun Zhan galloped on horseback, and the double-headed iron spear danced into a chaotic snowflake, stabbing back and forth, the cold light flashed, and it was unstoppable. Mao Zong and Liu Bei saw that their eyes were red and their hearts were warm, and they couldn't stop clapping their hands and stomping their feet, cheering loudly. Mao Zong is consciously meritorious, found a horse warrior like Gongsun Zhan, and is full of confidence in defeating Yan Rou, when he thinks that Xi Mao will become famous because of this, Mao Zong feels excited, and he has no original resistance to Mao Yan forcing him to live with Gongsun Chan and others, but feels that this is a very wise decision.
Liu Bei is also excited, he has always been a little conceited, he is the hero among the children in the same village, and the elders of the same sect also praise him, but now when he sees Gongsun Zhan, he is a little ashamed of himself, and he sincerely admits that Gongsun Chan is much better than him in all aspects, so good that he can't even be jealous, and the rest is only worship. He felt that this time he came to Peach Valley to study, on the one hand, he became a student of the great Confucian Lu Zhi, and he was somewhat proud of his capital in Zhuo County in the future, and on the other hand, he met a hero like Gongsun Zhan. Not to mention whether it will help him in the future, seeing such a character makes him feel satisfied.
Although the two have different purposes, they are in the same mood at the moment, looking at Gongsun Zhan's vigorous posture, the two of them are not to be outdone, as if they are competing with whose voice is louder.
Mao Yan and Ah Chu stood on the small building, looking at the crowd in the peach valley, looking at the fiery red figure of the pegasus dancing spear in the peach blossoms, and they all smiled in unison.
"Sister, what a hero." Ah Chu narrowed his eyes with a smile, and said to Mao Yan with deep meaning: "It's a pity that she is already married."
"Whether you are a hero or not, what does it have to do with whether you are married or not?" Mao Yan was embarrassed by her, and glanced at her. Achu chuckled, and was about to say more when there was a sound of heavy, slow footsteps behind him. When they looked back, Mao Qin, the head of the Mao family, gasped and appeared at the staircase, his somewhat cloudy gaze swept into the peach valley, but he let out a long sigh.
