While Gongsun Du and his two henchmen were muttering in the mansion, Han Heng and Xian Yuyin were also plotting follow-up actions.

Han Heng said with a worried face: "Minghui, the situation is much more complicated than expected. From Wang Yanfang's mouth today, we have gotten a lot of useful news, Gongsun Du is so suspicious and jealous, I am afraid that he will not easily agree to Gongzi's request, I am afraid that this time I am afraid that I will disappoint Gongzi. ”

Xian Yuyin comforted Han Heng: "Mr. Zipei, I have accompanied you all the way, and I can see that you are a person who is gentle on the outside and tough on the inside. I know Childe best, as long as you do things for him with your heart, success or failure doesn't really matter, he will definitely trust and reuse you in the future. ”

Han Heng nodded gratefully, and said: "Gongzi's temperament is indeed one of the best I have ever seen, he is generous and easy-going, without the slightest arrogance of a noble son of a family, and can also listen to the advice and opinions of others. I'm just worried that if someone as kind as him doesn't have a good result, wouldn't it be a pity? That's why I want to do my best to get Gongsun Du to join forces with the adults, and buy him some time to grow. ”

Xian Yuyin said confidently: "Mr. Zipei doesn't have to worry about the way out of the son!" You believe me, Gongzi has the talent to go through the heavens and the earth, and he has the wisdom of the unpredictable, just a Gongsun Zhan, he can't help him at all. Childe is a man with great ambitions, and sooner or later he will destroy the guys who are now jumping around in the states and counties, and return the Han family to a Langlang mountain and river! If Gongsun Du is unwilling to take this opportunity to befriend Master Taifu and Gongzi, it can only mean that he is short-sighted, and he will definitely die without a place to bury in the future! ”

Han Heng sighed and said leisurely: "With the current situation, how difficult it is to restore the Han family! ”

Xian Yuyin was very optimistic, not affected by Han Heng's pessimism, and continued: "Let's not talk about those things in the future, let's think about how to deal with Gongsun Du first." ”

"Well, that's right. Gongsun Du is going to set up a banquet in the mansion to entertain me tomorrow night, I don't know what Minghui thinks? ”

"My proposition is that it is not appropriate to find out the intention to Gongsun Du for the time being, you might as well observe it carefully for a few more days, and at the same time take this time to go around and find out the people that Gongzi is looking for, and find a way to get in touch with them first."

"Well, that's what I thought. If we show our intentions to Gongsun Du tomorrow night, our actions in Xiangping will be restricted everywhere in the future, so it is better to continue to use the banner of study tours to facilitate the investigation of the situation in Liaodong and make some preparations for Gongzi's attack on Liaodong in the future. ”

The two discussed in a low voice and made a plan, Xian Yuyin left Han Heng's bedroom and returned to his residence.

"A few of you, tomorrow you will walk around the city, go to the street to buy some food and supplies, go to the wine store, pay attention to what the people in Xiangping City have been talking about recently, and by the way, inquire about the residence of Bingyuan."

"Obey the orders of the captain!"

"Call me what? Why can't you change your mouth? Remember, you are now Mr. Han's personal soldiers, and I am your head, not a captain! In the future, if anyone dares to make a mistake, wait until you go back to Jicheng, and see if I don't clean you up! ”

"Brother Hui, the little ones remember! Don't dare to do it again! ”

"Hmph, it's pretty much the same, get out of here and go to bed!"

During the day the next day, Han Heng and Xian Yuyin never went anywhere, and stayed at Wang Lie's house with peace of mind, looking leisurely and leisurely. At the invitation of Wang Lie, Han Heng also made a cameo appearance as a "guest professor" to teach scriptures to more than a dozen children of different sizes, behaving in a decent manner without any flaws.

The few soldiers sent out by Xian Yuyin were all guys who stuck to Mao'er than monkey spirits, and they pretended to be hanging around when they knew that someone was watching and following them, and when they came back, they also bought wine and food, and they couldn't see that they were half of their ranks.

In the evening, the Hou Mansion specially sent two ox carts to welcome Wang Lie and Han Heng to the banquet.

At this time, the custom of traveling has changed, and it is no longer like in the early years when everyone was proud of riding in a luxury carriage, and some scholars began to ride an ox cart as a fashion and fashion. Because the ox cart walks slowly and steadily, and the carriage is spacious and tall, it only needs to be slightly modified, and the canopy is installed on the carriage, and a few seats are set up in the carriage, so that you can sit and lie down at will, which is suitable for the pampered and wanton wandering scholars.

Luxury carriages, like Ferraris, are the love of young people; The luxury bullock cart is the Rolls-Royce, which is most popular with the elderly taxis.

Wang Lie and Han Heng rode in the same car, and Liu Yi accompanied him. The two boys of the Gongsun family also took a car and whispered behind them.

Gongsun Kang said to his younger brother: "Brother Gong, listening to Mr. Zipei's lecture today, I think this person is very talented, why don't we persuade my father to leave him in Liaodong?" ”

Gongsun Gong was an unassertive guy, so he nodded and agreed: "What the eldest brother said is right, what do you say to your father when you return to the mansion, I will follow." ”

After Han Heng entered Gongsun Du's mansion with Wang Lie, he saw that the hall was crowded, and there were already many people wearing scholarly clothes, and it was estimated that Gongsun Du invited the children of the family in Xiangping City to accompany him.

Soon after Han Heng sat down next to Wang Lie, he saw a middle-aged man in his early forties who looked like a wolf, accompanied by Yang Yi and the guards, striding into the hall.

Wang Lie then motioned for Han Heng to get up, led him to Gongsun Du, and said, "Lord Gongsun, this is my classmate Han Heng Han Zipei. ”

Wang Lie is over fifty years old, Han Heng is in his early thirties, Wang Lie calls Han Heng a little friend, but it is also appropriate. However, when it comes to seniority, Wang Lie and Han Heng are still the same generation, because they used to study in Yingchuan with the same teacher.

Gongsun Du bowed his head and said: "I have heard Mr. Han's name for a long time, and it is a blessing to see him today!" ”

Han Heng bowed to Gongsun Du and said complimentingly: "My lord has won the award." When Heng was in Daijun, he often heard about the deeds of adults recruiting talents in Liaodong, setting up a museum to open a school, and recruiting homeless people. ”

Gongsun Du saw that Han Heng was so good at talking, and his face was suddenly full of spring breeze, so he beckoned everyone to sit down together, and the singers and singers came on the stage one after another, and the wine and delicacies were full of several cases, and a happy banquet began.

If it weren't for the killing of a guy who didn't know how to die on the way, ruining the friendly and cordial atmosphere of the whole banquet, maybe there would be no many later stories.

Here's the thing: When the wine was hot, Gongsun Du's eldest son Gongsun Kang was about to recruit talents for his father, and suddenly a drunken middle-aged scribe stood up and pointed at Gongsun Du's nose and scolded, completely confusing everyone.

The bold guy who scolded people, named Li Min, was originally the Taishou of Hedong, and after Dong Zhuo took control of the Luoyang Dynasty, he resigned and did not do it, and dragged his family to Liaodong to avoid trouble. The reason why he let a county on the boundary of Sili be too guarded, but he was willing to run more than 4,000 miles to Liaodong, was that he didn't want to see the Han royal family being controlled and manipulated by traitors. Speaking of which, he is also a loyal minister.

Li Min scolded Gongsun Du like this: "Gongsun Shengji, in vain, you claim to be the country for the people, and you care about the people of Limin, but in fact, you are also a thief of the country!" The four counties of Liaodong have always belonged to Youzhou, but you changed it to Pingzhou last year, and you also served as the pastor of Pingzhou, dare to ask if there is an edict from the imperial court? You also proclaimed yourself the Marquis of Liaodong, and sent troops to Nandu to attack Donglai County in Qingzhou, but this kind of behavior was done by a minister? At noon today, I saw that you ordered someone to post a notice to arrest Liu Zheng of the Beihai Zhuxuren clan, Liu Zheng came to Liaodong for less than a year, and dared to ask what crime he committed, but you were convicted of rebellion? ”

Good guy, Li Min's scolding hit Gongsun Du's weakness every word, leaving him speechless and unable to distinguish at all. Gongsun Du was so angry at that time, he couldn't wait to let the guards immediately drag this hateful Li Min out of the gang and hack him to death!

However, in front of everyone's eyes, Gongsun Du really didn't dare to do this, because Wang Lie and Han Heng were both present, if he scolded himself because Li Min was drunk, he would kill someone, and he killed a Si Li Taishou who was born in a family, and this matter was spread out, which was tantamount to admitting in public that Li Min's accusations were actually true!

Seeing this, Liu Yi hurriedly got up and took a few guards to forcibly drag Li Min out of the city, and said loudly while dragging him: "Oh, this Li Min really doesn't know etiquette, today is a banquet for Mr. Han, and it is a joke that such drunken nonsense is spreading!" ”

Li Min desperately wanted to break free, but he was held down by the guards, dragged out of the gate of the Hou Mansion directly, slammed it on the street, and fell into a rut.

Gongsun Du was scolded for being a bloody dog, and he walked away angrily, and the banquet broke up unhappily.

Just when Li Min got up and scolded Gongsun Du, Han Heng whispered to ask Wang Lie about his identity, and learned that he was Li Min, the Taishou of Hedong, and he felt a little admired and worried in his heart.

Han Heng admired Li Min for daring to tell the truth and not being afraid of Gongsun Du's murderous intentions. Han Heng was worried that Li Min's scolding, although he was happy, he might send himself and his family to the guillotine.

Gongsun Du had already left angrily, so Wang Lie and Han Heng greeted Yangyi and Liu Yi, and hurriedly left this place of right and wrong.

After getting into the carriage, Han Heng said to Wang Lie: "Brother Yanfang, what do you think of Li Min?" ”

Wang Lie shook his head and sighed and said: "Li Minzhong is loyal, but he can't see the situation clearly, how can he use wine to insult Gongsun Du on such an occasion?" ”

Han Heng nodded and said, "I'm worried that he will become the second Liu Zheng, I don't know if there is any way to save Li Min's life?" ”

"What can be done? In addition to taking advantage of the fact that Gongsun Du's revenge did not come, he learned from Liu Zheng and hurried out of the city to flee for his life, the old man really couldn't think of a second way to go! ”

"In that case, Brother Yan Fang might as well send someone to warn Li Min, let him pack his luggage overnight, and take his family out of the city early tomorrow morning to flee for his life!"

"Brother Zipei, you're embarrassed for me! If he is known by that grandson, he will inevitably be suspicious of him. ”

"You and I are reading the articles of Confucius and Mencius, how can we only care about personal gains and losses at such a critical juncture?"

"That's it, the old man will have a lot of trouble this time!"
