Gongsun Chan leaned against the Jindun, supported his forehead with one hand, held a horsewhip in the other, gently knocked on the fine scale armor, drooped his eyelids, and looked indifferent, but under his eyelids, his eyes flickered, and he glanced at the door from time to time. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The room suddenly darkened, Liu Bei appeared in front of the door with his hands behind his back and a smile, glanced at Gongsun Zhan, who was sitting tall, and laughed with a "plop" sound: "Brother Bo Jue, you are in a high position, now that the scene is big, do you want to give the brother back then a dismount?" ”

Gongsun Zhan's eyelids were raised, pretending to be suddenly realized, and he hurriedly got up and strode up to meet him, and said as he walked: "Alas, these fools, they only say that they are Lord Liu Liu, I thought it was Liu Yu again." I knew it was Xuande you, so I went out to greet you in person. It's really rude, and I ask Xuan Demo to blame. As he spoke, he glared at the people around him and snorted: "You are really dog-eyed, even my brother Liu Bei Liu Xuande doesn't know, even Lao Tzu is rude in front of his brothers, look back and see how Lao Tzu cleans you up." ”

"Okay, okay, those who don't know are not guilty, did you take these halberds first? I looked at it and felt chills. ”

Gongsun Chan looked at the halberd guards who stood outside and formed a cold and shining passage, laughed, and waved his hand: "Scattered." He turned around and hugged Liu Bei's shoulders affectionately: "You are not honest, can I know your martial arts?" Just rely on these goods, where your opponent is. This is what I scare those scholars, if I deal with you, it is to use my white horse to obey, and I am not sure. ”

Liu Bei smiled secretly in his heart, and said in his heart, I am calling you Brother Bo Jue first. These are the decorations, if I take out the posture of the imperial court envoy first, I am afraid that your white horse will appear soon. He didn't say anything, followed Gongsun Chan into the tent, and was just about to take a seat, when he saw Zou Jing next to him, he quickly stopped. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly smiled and said, "So the Hou Zou Jun in the Northern Army? ”

Zou Jing smiled slightly, and returned the salute: "It's Zou Jing." I didn't expect to meet here again, what a blessing. ”

Liu Bei nodded again and again, and said a few words to Zou Jinghan. Gongsun Chan had been watching Liu Bei's face from the side. Seeing that he and Zou Jing were talking enthusiastically, he said with a puzzled face: "You know? ”

Liu Bei said with a smile: "Zou Jun was the marquis of the Northern Army in the Northern Army, and I went to visit him with Deran. I am still grateful to him for receiving him. ”

The corners of Gongsun Zhan's mouth grinned, of course he knew about this period of the past, Zou Jing had told him this, and it was precisely because of this that he specially asked Zou Jing to do his long history. Not because he and Liu Xiu knew each other, but because he and Liu Xiu didn't deal with each other. Of course, for Cao Poshi's old wife Luo Fu, who wanted to rob An Quan, Liu Xiu had a very bad impression of Zou Jing. Later, when he gained power, Zou Jing lost his position.

Gongsun Zhan asked Zou Jing to make a long history, and specially asked him to come to see Liu Bei, just to try what the situation between Liu Bei and Liu Xiu was. If Liu Bei was still bent on surrendering to Liu Xiu, then he would definitely have an opinion now. Even if he didn't have a seizure, he wouldn't talk to Zou Jing so enthusiastically.

Looking at it like this, Liu Bei and Liu Xiu are really split. Gongsun Zhan was relieved, stepped forward and grabbed Liu Bei's arm and laughed: "He can also be regarded as a hometown where he has met his old acquaintance, and his life is happy, come and come." Let's not talk about official business, let's first wash the dust for Xuande. ”

Liu Bei is the messenger of the Son of Heaven, and Gongsun Zhan does not accept the order first, but first washes the dust for Liu Bei, which is not tolerated in the etiquette law. But Gongsun Chan did this, and Liu Bei did not have any objections, and responded with a smile.

After three rounds of drinking, his eyes and ears were hot, Gongsun Zhan and Liu Bei chatted about the situation in Luoyang. Liu Bei stopped his wine glass and glanced at it: "Brother Bo Jue, do you know that De Ran is injured again?" ”

"Hurt again?" Gongsun Chan was stunned for a moment and laughed: "His martial arts skills are so good, how could he be injured again?" Is there anyone who is as brave as Sandalwood? ”

"I don't know the specifics, I only know that I was injured when I was recruiting Qiang." Liu Bei slowly turned the wine glass in his hand, looking careless: "I heard that it's not a big deal, but as far as I know, the king of Chu rushed to Chang'an with Liu Ye, the sister-in-law born to the eldest princess." ”

The smile on Gongsun Zhan's face slowly solidified, and Zou Jing was also stunned. The king of Chu rushed to Chang'an with Liu Xiu's sister-in-law, the meaning in this sentence is very deep, Liu Xiu's injury is so serious?

"The imperial court had been counting on the Bingzhou Army and the Liangzhou Army to move eastward, but now it seems that it is impossible in the short term. If you want to defeat Yuan Shao, you must rely on Brother Bo Jue. Liu Bei swept around quietly: "The world of peace uses virtue, the world of chaos uses energy, and the Bo Jue brothers have both virtue and ability, it is the time to show their ambitions, and some pedantic people can't move Bo Jue in the slightest." However, Brother Bo Jue, people are terrible, brother I think, there is no need to cause any trouble at this moment, it will only increase the trouble, I don't know what Brother Bo Jue thinks? ”

Gongsun Zhan's eyes tightened, he pondered for a long time, and said unwillingly: "It's just that although those rotten Confucians can't do things, they can talk nonsense, making people can't be quiet, what will be good?" ”

"A Confucian has a good name, and it is better to kill his body than to stain his name." Liu Bei raised his wine glass and gestured to Gongsun Zhan: "This matter will be handed over to me, can Brother Bo Qi rest assured?" ”

Gongsun Zhan glanced at Liu Bei, and exchanged glances with Changshi Zou Jing and Sima Guanjing, and then nodded: "If Xuande can solve this worry for me, it will naturally be great." ”

"I am willing to serve Brother Boju." Liu Bei pulled out the seal of the commander of the Liaodong vassal state from his waist, put it on the case, and said with a smile: "Now, I am also following in the footsteps of Brother Boqi and going to the Liaodong vassal country to appease the barbarians." I can be shallow and have no foundation, but fortunately, there is a brother who has both virtue and ability, if there is anything that needs attention, brother should not hide it, or tell it out. ”

Gongsun Chan smiled and raised his glass: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." ”

The two of them clinked glasses, drank them all, and laughed loudly.

Liu Bei immediately asked Gongsun Zhan for a thousand soldiers, rushed to the Assassin's Mansion, without saying a word, he first ordered someone to surround the Assassin's Mansion, and he went straight into the back hall, with his hands behind his back, looked at the richly decorated houses and women in brocade clothes around him, and sneered at the angry Liu Yu: "Envoy, do you impeach yourself for this, or do you let me confiscate your assets and report them to the Son of Heaven one by one?" ”

Liu Yu was stunned for a moment, his face suddenly turned pale, and he stared at Liu Bei viciously: "Liu Xuande, you are ruthless enough." Lu Zigan is really powerful, and the disciples he taught are more vicious than the other. However, don't be too complacent, if you do too many bad things, there will be retribution. ”

Liu Bei pouted: "If that's the case, then I might as well do things a little bit." Someone came, copied the Assassin's Mansion for me, made a book one by one, and published it to the public, so that the people of Youzhou could know how much money this frugal Liu Zhijun had collected? ”

Liu Yu was shocked. He didn't expect Liu Bei to be so ruthless. He is famous for being frugal and close to the people, but how can he be really honest, and what official does not accept gifts? It is a problem that he can eat with only 600 stones, let alone who will let his wives and concubines be clothed and fed. It is an open secret in the world that the assassin accepts bribes, and everyone knows it, but if he really wants to be revealed, it will be a big shame, especially a Confucian like him who is famous for his frugality.

"Liu Xuande!" Liu Yu was shocked and angry, and wanted to step forward to plead, but he couldn't open his mouth, he was stunned, in a dilemma. When Liu He heard the news, he hurriedly stepped forward to plead with Liu Bei. Liu He once fought with Liu Xiu and Liu Bei in Ningcheng with Xianbei people, and Liu Bei wanted to give him a little face.

"Xuande, it's my father and son who are wrong, you raise your noble hand, don't kill them all."

Liu Bei sneered and glanced at Liu Yu disdainfully. Liu Yu was so angry that his hands trembled, but he didn't dare to attack. Liu Bei sat down in a big way, chatting with Liu He without saying a word, but he didn't order his subordinates to stop. After a long time, when the general list of properties came out, he pushed the list in front of Liu He.

"Your father and son sign it, and then leave Youzhou by yourself, this list will remain in my hands, and I promise that it will not fall into the hands of others. Your reputation is still in your own hands, but if you ......" Liu Bei dragged out his voice, his eyes were sharp, and he sneered, and he didn't say anything about the following.

Liu He understood, he stared at Liu Bei deadly, Liu Bei looked at him fearlessly, and there was a trace of contempt at the corner of his mouth. After a while, Liu He lowered his eyelids like a defeated rooster: "Thank you Xuande." ”

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say." Liu Bei smiled, watched Liu Yu's father and son reluctantly sign their names, and then carefully folded the list, put it in his arms, and waved his hand: "Envoy, I will wait in the post pavilion, give you three days, and don't appear in Youzhou from now on." Otherwise, I will not be responsible for any accidents. ”

Liu Yu looked up to the sky and sighed, eager to swallow Liu Bei alive, but his handle was in Liu Bei's hands, and he would rather give up this Youzhou assassin history and rich property, rather than ruin his name, otherwise he suspected that he would not be able to get out of Youzhou alive. He had to swallow his anger. Two days later, the family set out on the return journey with the simplest of bags. He did not return to his hometown of Donghai, but turned west and returned to Luoyang via Merge Prefecture.

Liu Bei received Liu Yu's property and returned it to Gongsun Zhan, who was overjoyed when he heard it, took out half of it and handed it to Liu Bei, and allocated him another thousand cavalry. Liu Bei used those possessions to recruit hundreds of people in Zhuo County, and then rushed to Liaodong. Gongsun Zhan sent him out of the city, and Yin Yin told him to let Liu Bei guard Liaodong no matter what, don't let his back be chaotic, don't pretend to be a color to those Wuhuan people, and don't let Xianbei people do things.

Liu Bei agreed one by one, patted his chest and said, Brother Boqi, you can rest assured, as long as I have a breath of air, Liaodong will not be chaotic, and you can prepare for the war against Jizhou with peace of mind. When will the war start, notify me, I will be your pawn, defeat Yuan Shao together, and let those children of the family taste the iron hooves of our Youyan people.

Gongsun Chan laughed heartily and nodded again and again. Watching Liu Bei leave, the smile on his face slowly faded. Guan Jing came over: "General, Liu Bei's ambition is not small. ”

"There are ambitions, but they are not necessarily big." Gongsun Chan snorted and turned his horse's head: "Doesn't he just want to occupy Liaodong?" In the remote land of eastern Liaodong, what is there to plot. If you want to fight, you must fight for Jizhou, the Central Plains, and the world. As long as he is honest, let him occupy this Liaodong for the time being. I can't be like Liu Xiu, I can't even tolerate my own brother. ”

Guan Jing wanted to speak and stopped, and a flash of worry flashed in his eyes.

"Ordered the Wuhuan Raiders of the entire territory of Youzhou to gather in Zhuo County within a month. Violators, behead! Gongsun Zan said in a deep voice: "Let Shanggu Taishou Song Guo also come, I want to attack Yuan Shao and share Cao Cao's worries, and he can't be idle." ”
