"A month ago, the horse team set off from Liaoxi County, this trade route Su has walked many times, each time it is not said that the wind and waves are calm, it is also safe and stable, there has never been an accident, there are horse bandits who are not long-sighted, and our brothers are not afraid of things.

In this way, when the general horse bandits saw a large group of us, they ran away directly, and they didn't dare to make a move at all, but this time, our horse team missed, and this group of horse bandits was bold, smart, and black-hearted.

A whole hundred horses were snatched away by them, and thirteen brothers of Su were killed, eight were injured, and five were disabled.

Su hated, stood and took them out, but he had to carry them back, how would they live in the future? What will the people of the county think of Su? Su wanted to avenge them, but this is the boundary of Zhuo County, and Su is not familiar with the place, so he is afraid of suffering.

But this thing can't be left like that, what should be done Su must be done! So Su asked everywhere, asking who could help the horse team get the horse back, and asked about coming back in a circle, and everyone was saying the same name, that is, Foot, Liu Jun! ”

A big man with a beard and beard was sitting in front of the nineteen-year-old Liu Bei, across a square table, with a sincere face.

"This matter is too important for Su, and I also ask Liu Jun to help, if so, Su is grateful!"

is quite a big Han with rules and regulations, facing Liu Bei, who is obviously smaller than him, is like facing a certain noble and unspeakable aristocratic figure, cautious and courteous.

Looking at his slightly restrained appearance, Liu Bei smiled.

"Su Jun doesn't need to be polite, Su Jun is older than me, just call me Xuande."

"Then it's a big deal, Xuande, these horses are very important to the horse team, they were robbed for no reason, this breath, Su can't swallow it anyway, the horse team brothers are dead and disabled, and this revenge must be avenged, so please also ask Xuande to help, after the matter is completed, there will be a good reward!"

Su Shuang, the big man in the shape of a man, stepped back a little and bowed respectfully to Liu Bei.

It can be seen that his mood is very urgent.

After listening to Su Shuang's earnest request, Liu Bei did not immediately express his position, but picked up a peach from Hebei in the lacquer plate in front of him.

I took a bite, and the sweet and sour juice soaked my mouth.

"Why didn't you come to me before the accident?"

Liu Bei took a few bites of peaches, swallowed the delicious flesh, wiped his mouth, and said slowly: "In the past few years, the boundaries of Zhuo County have not been very peaceful, and all forces are not very peaceful.

In my opinion, Su Jun just didn't take this matter to heart, thinking that he could do it anyway, and he thought that I was young and unreliable, but this is not the case, if I had come to me earlier, I would have helped Su Jun say hello, for the sake of my thin face, presumably this matter would not have happened. ”

Su Shuang's face was ashamed.

"This ...... It is indeed Su and the horse team's brothers, after that, Xuande wants the horse team and Su to cooperate, we must cooperate! ”

"It's been robbed, how can I cooperate? If Su Jun and the horse team can do this alone, they still need to come to me? ”

Liu Bei bit the peach, shook his head and said: "In recent years, the year has not been good, the grain harvest has failed, the government on the border of Youzhou has collected taxes and collected fiercely, and many good families have been forced to become bandits. ”

Saying this, Liu Bei bit the last few pieces of pulp into his mouth, threw the kernel on the table, picked up the cloth towel on the side and wiped his hands, and said while wiping: "I probably know the group of people Su Jun said, and they can be regarded as my old acquaintances.

If Su Jun tells me in advance, I will say hello again, and let it go, but now this matter is not simple, eat the fat in the stomach, how can there be a reason for people to spit it out again, Su Jun thinks? ”

The room was a little quieter.

"Everyone said that on the boundary of Zhuo County, there is nothing that Xuande can't do, there is no person who Xuande can't summon in a word, and the county order is not as good as you, in the past, Su was clumsy, and after that, if Su went to business, without Xuande's permission, he would not step into the boundary of Zhuo County!"

Su Shuang respectfully saluted Liu Bei, then pushed out a small wooden box, and opened the small wooden box, so that Liu Bei could see the gold ingots inside.

Liu Bei smiled.

"How can I be so flexible, I'm just a mere civilian, I speak softly, and I still talk to the Ming Court in the end on this one-third of an acre of land in Zhuo County."

Su Shuang knew that Liu Bei was definitely being modest.

If you don't get it right, there is also a suspicion of pretending to be forced.

He had already inquired that Sun Zhan, the Ming Court and Zhuoxian County Commander in Liu Bei's mouth, was Liu Bei's fellow senior brother when he was a student, and he studied with Liu Bei, and he had always been good friends and had a close relationship.

I heard that Gongsun Zhan likes to hunt and travel, and he doesn't like to stay in the county government to deal with boring official business, so he simply invited his fellow disciple Liu Bei to the county government to help deal with government affairs.

Therefore, the county order seals are all managed by Liu Bei, and all the orders issued by the county government are Liu Bei's meaning.

Gongsun Zhan himself took his wife, concubine and entourage out to hunt and play every day, riding a horse and galloping everywhere, so unhappy.

Liu Bei himself not only has a close relationship with Gongsun Zhan, but also the actual speaker of the Liu clan in Zhuo County.

Under his actual leadership, the Liu family in Zhuoxian County has developed from a small and medium-sized clan settlement to the second largest clan family in Zhuoxian County, an absolute local wealthy family in Zhuoxian County, which actually owns a large amount of land and controls a large number of people.

Not to mention Zhuo County, the Liu family is even famous in Zhuo County, and it is a well-known new talent in recent years.

Therefore, Gongsun Zhan entrusted the county affairs to Liu Bei, which is well deserved, from commerce to agriculture, the industries of the small half of Zhuo County have already belonged to the Liu family, and Liu Bei is also handy in managing himself.

Liu Bei himself is also very capable, and he has never been wrong in handling government affairs for Gongsun Zhan, and the county government of Zhuo County is very stable, and there has been no criminal case for a long time.

Therefore, people say that on the one-acre and three-point land in Zhuo County, Liu Bei's meaning is the meaning of Gongsun Zhan, which is the meaning of Zhuo County's county government.

In addition, Lu Zhi, the leader of the Lu family, the number one wealthy family in Zhuo County, is the common teacher of Liu Bei and Gongsun Zhan, which means that everyone is their own person.

These three forces are combined, and Zhuoxian is theirs.

And Liu Bei was in it, and at the same time he was trusted by the Lu family and Gongsun Zhan, and with their endorsement, Liu Bei naturally became the representative of the absolute power of Zhuo County.

Although at this moment, Liu Bei does not have any official identity.

Of course, it doesn't matter.

Everyone knows that although the hand of the Son of Heaven is long, he can't reach out to Zhuoxian.
