Although Mao Qin was a little nervous about Yan Rou's injury, after all, Liu Xiu pulled back a game and beat Yan Rou so badly, the face of the Mao family was saved. He was just a little worried that Li Ding's face would not look good, so he hurriedly said with a smile: "Li Jun, it's a fluke, it's a tie, let's ...... Go sit down first? ”

"This isn't from your Mao family, right?" Li Ding pouted slightly sarcastically: "I know him, his father Liu Yuanqi has met me a few times." ”

Mao Qin was a little embarrassed, but he only skimmed by: "Yan Jun is a famous master, how can anyone in my Mao family be his opponent, but these students are studying from Lu Jun in my Peach Valley Retreat recently, and some people may deign to come to my village as guests in the future." ”

Li Ding didn't say any more, ordered someone to see Yan Rou's injury, and walked towards Zhuangzhong with Lu Zhi, and as he walked, he said softly: "Lu Jun, on the battlefield, of course, warriors are indispensable, but one or two warriors can't change anything. Now Liu Yuanjun is not worried about the lack of warriors, Youyan has never lacked warriors, what is he worried about...... It's materiel. ”

Lu Zhi nodded, agreeing with Li Ding's opinion.

"The righteousness of the owner of Mao Zhuang to protect his family and defend the country is commendable, but the king is very worried about whether others can be as loyal as the owner of Mao Zhuang." Li Ding praised Mao Qin by the way, then turned his head and said to Lu Zhi softly: "The envoy means that he hopes that Lu Jun can come forward to negotiate with you. Lu Jun is a native of Zhuo County, he is familiar with the situation in Zhuo County, and he is loyal to the court, so he must not shirk it, right? ”

Lu Zhi pondered for a moment and responded: "Liu Zhijun has an order, but Zhi Yan dares to disobey." It's just that although Zhi is a Zhuo person, thanks to the wrong love of the township party, he has a small reputation, but after all, he has been away from home for a long time, and he is afraid that what he can do is limited, so he only dares to say that he will do his best. ”

"In this way, you will have no worries." Li Ding breathed a sigh of relief, since Lu Zhi agreed to take over this burden, Liu Yu, the assassin of the history, didn't have to bother so much. The Han Dynasty is said to be "the coast of the world, not the king's land", but for a place, most of the people who really speak are the local heroes. For example, in Zhuo County, except for Zhuo Ling, which was sent by the court, the other officials were all locals, and unless they encountered that kind of very strong county order, the local people still had the final say on the big and small affairs.

The county is like this, of course the county is like this, and since the state is no exception, Liu Yu is the assassin of Youzhou, and he can be in charge of the affairs of the entire eleven counties of Youzhou, but if he really wants to get things done, he still has to rely on the local strength of Youzhou.

Lu Zhi has a reputation and is a local, he is the most suitable person, of course, it is not without regrets, that is, the Lu family has no strength in Zhuo County, and he lacks the confidence to speak, if other families don't take his reputation seriously, he won't recruit it.

It's just that compared to Liu Yu's Youzhou assassin history, Lu Zhi is still a little useful, which is also the reason why Liu Yu asked Li Ding to rush to Peach Valley, giving the Mao family face is secondary, the key is to borrow Lu Zhi's reputation. If Lu Zhi is willing to take charge and come forward to convene the powerful clan in Zhuo County to discuss this matter, then Liu Yu can retreat behind the scenes, and it is possible to take credit, and if it fails, Lu Zhi can be held responsible.

Lu Zhi has been an official for many years, it's not that he can't see through the meaning, it's just that his surname is Gengzhi, not the kind of person who has slippery shoulders and refuses to take responsibility, otherwise he wouldn't have spoken to the general Dou Wu with a cloth coat back then, asking him to resign.

Li Ding was relieved that the purpose of his trip had been achieved. He suddenly smiled and said: "Speaking of which, I am more familiar with that young man, but he is not good at reading, so I didn't recommend him at the beginning, in order to be able to learn from Lu Jun, his father also came to the cold house a few times." Now that he has been in the ashram for nearly half a month, has he made progress in his studies? ”

Lu Zhi was a little embarrassed, Liu Xiu and they went to the Jingshe for more than half a month, and Lu Min went to Zhuoxian the next day, and his own health was not very good, so he didn't even go to class. Li Ding saw that he was silent, and he didn't ask any more questions, he also knew that there were only a handful of people who really came to study, and the vast majority of people just had a reputation.

……

Liu Xiu and his classmates returned to the house, but saw Gongsun Chan packing up, Liu Bei anxiously persuaded him, Gongsun Chan had a cold face, and he shouldn't say a word. As soon as he saw Liu Xiu and the others rushing in happily, he was stunned for a moment: "How is the foot battle?" Won? ”

"Of course, De Ran was so powerful that he beat that Yan Rou to the point of vomiting blood, which can be regarded as helping you out of your bad breath."

As soon as the classmate was halfway through his words, he found that Gongsun Zhan's face was wrong, so he stopped talking about him left and right.

Gongsun Zhan was stunned for a moment, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he laughed forcefully, and his voice was a little astringent: "Then He Xi Deran is gone." ”

Liu Xiu frowned and waved his hand disappreciably: "That's a, it's all an accident." What's going on with you? Going? ”

"I want to go back." Gongsun Zhan tightened his suits and said with some regret: "Anyway, I don't want to be a doctor, and I can get my wish if I can record a name under Lu Shimen." He hesitated, stretched out his hand and took Liu Xiu's arm and walked into the house, and the others saw that they had something to say, and it was not good to listen to them, so they had to disperse, only Liu Bei followed.

Seeing that there was no one else outside, Gongsun Zhan lowered his head and hesitated for a moment, Liu Bei saw it, and asked first, "Big brother, what's going on?" Did you defeat Yan Rou? ”

Liu Xiu told what had just happened, and as he spoke, he didn't even believe it. When Yan Rou slashed at him murderously, although he was a little nervous, he ...... Why is there no feeling of fear? In his previous life, he was a standard scholar, although he had a good body in this life, and he was still a fighting king when he heard Liu Bei, but he had never used a knife with anyone, how could he cut each other with a knife for the first time, but he was not worried at all, but ...... Feeling a little excited?

Liu Bei and Gongsun Zhan also looked at each other, feeling that this matter seemed to be a bit unreliable, if it weren't for so many classmates testifying just now, they would all be a little suspicious that Liu Xiu was bragging, and seeing that the expression on Liu Xiu's face seemed to be a little weak, they were naturally even more suspicious. It's just that although he was suspicious in his heart, he couldn't say it in front of Liu Xiu, so he had to say two vague and perfunctory sentences.

"De Ran is really a natural fierce general." Gongsun Zhanqiang laughed, thought about it, and said solemnly: "Deran, I don't think you are a pedantic person who likes to read, and Mr. Lu will not have time to teach you with peace of mind, he will have to become a leader sooner or later." If you are bored in Zhuoxian, it is better to go to Liaoxi, and we will kill the enemy side by side. ”

Liu Xiu is not interested in going to Liaoxi, and he has no intention of being a fierce general, although he defeated a big horse thief like Yan Rou in the first official battle with someone, it does not mean that he will lick the blood on his head in the future, what is the use of being fierce, can you still be fiercer than Dian Wei, he is still shot to death by random arrows. However, looking at Gongsun Zhan's sincere face, he also nodded with a straight face: "Definitely." ”

Gongsun Chan smiled, stretched out his hand and pulled Liu Bei and said: "I went to Zhuo County, I didn't read anything in the book, but it is fate to know the two of you and Chengming." Chengming has something to do now, I won't say goodbye to him, and when I see him, you can help me greet him. Let's just say that I will prepare a good horse in Liaoxi and wait for him. ”

Liu Bei snorted and said with some reluctance: "Brother Boqi, I will also go to Liaoxi if I have the opportunity." ”

"You can't ask for it." Gongsun Zhan laughed and hugged Liu Bei's shoulder affectionately: "Xuande, big husband, why do you want to be a little daughter?" We are both still young, and there are many opportunities to meet in the future. ”

Liu Xiu thought for a while, turned around and took out the pair of stirrups that had not been used from the box under the bed, and stuffed them into Gongsun Zhan's hand: "Bo Jue, I know that you are excellent at riding, and you don't need this thing, but others may not have such riding skills as you, and this stirrup for you may be of some use." In the future, when I take a team of elite horsemen across the grassland and kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions, it will also be regarded as a piece of my heart. ”

Gongsun Zhan swept the stirrup, heard what Liu Xiu meant, and did not force it: "In this way, thank you Deran for your kindness." ”

Liu Xiu saw that he didn't take it seriously, and wanted to persuade him to take it to heart, but when he thought about Gongsun Zhan's current mood, he was very unhappy, and if he said it again, he was afraid that he would think that he would look down on him, so he had to swallow the words back into his stomach, hoping that he could see the benefits of this thing in the future, and apply it to the white horse that will become famous all over the world, and it can be regarded as making some contribution to the Han Frontier.
