Volume 1 General White Horse Chapter 5 Turning Point

Time passed in a flash, and the three-day deadline given by Hou Taishou arrived in the blink of an eye.

In the Hou Mansion, for the marriage of his baby daughter, Hou Taishou deliberately got up early in the morning.

He shirked many things for this, just to see the "quasi-son-in-law" side.

"Hou Taishou, are you satisfied with this Gongsun Zhan?" It's better to be famous than to meet, Liu Li directly brought Gongsun Chan to Hou Taishou.

"I've seen Hou Taishou." Gongsun Chan bowed his hands and was polite.

"Satisfaction is quite satisfying, but..." Hou Taishou looked Gongsun Chan up and down, this person is handsome, has a loud voice, and has a good temperament, which completely meets his daughter's mate selection standards.

But the only problem lies in his identity, although he is from the Gongsun clan, he only works as a county official.

If this spreads, people all over the world are afraid that they will laugh at him, and the dignified party is too guarded, so he chose such a son-in-law, and it will be shameful to say it.

"Hou Taishou, you said before, don't look at your background, don't look at everything, just look at whether your daughter likes it." Liu Li saw Hou Taishou's hesitant expression on his face and reminded.

Hou Taishou nodded slightly, and just wanted to say something, but heard shouts from outside the house.

"I disagree!" When Yan Gang heard about this, he walked in scolding.

As soon as he saw Liu Li, he glared at him viciously, and then pointed at Gongsun Zan with his finger: "Taishou, this person's official position is Gongcao Shuzuo, how can he be worthy of the county lord, besides, his mother's status is low, and she is not a good household at all..."

"Click."

Liu Li saw that Gongsun Zhan's expression had changed, and he clenched his fists.

"Yan Guard, if you continue to talk nonsense, don't blame me for being polite!" Gongsun Chan drank loudly.

Yan Gang didn't expect him to fight back, and he was a little dazed.

"Just Cao Shuzuo, I dare to talk back." After speaking, Yan Gang pulled out the saber at his waist and pointed at Gongsun Zhan.

As soon as he pulled it out, he saw Gongsun Zhan snatch Yan Gang's saber and pointed at him, "It doesn't matter if I let you beat or scold, but if you say that my mother's is not, don't blame the sword for being ruthless!" ”

At such a fast speed, everyone present did not react, and the two had already shifted their positions offensively and defensively.

"Yan Gang, step aside!" Hou Taishou said sharply.

"Taishou, this person is not worthy, he just has an empty skin, and no real material, what kind of ability, if the eldest lady marries him, what is the difference between marrying a vase."

"Stand down! Don't you even listen to me now? Hou Taishou said loudly.

"Yes." Although Yan Gang was reluctant, he had no choice but to take back his sword and retreat to the side.

"Li Gongzi, Master Gao, people are good, it's just..."

Regarding Hou Taishou's concerns, Liu Li has already taken countermeasures.

But seeing Master Gao stand up, he arched his hand and said: "Hou Taishou, the old man has worked hard in Zhuo County for decades, and has been a matchmaker for countless years, but he has never been a matchmaker, for a person, what he values more is the potential, and the old man thinks that Gongsun Chan has that potential, and the old man is willing to gamble on his reputation and protect the matchmaker for him." ”

Hearing this, Hou Taishou pondered, this old man Gao is a guy who doesn't eat hard and soft, and now for the sake of Gongsun Zhan, he dares to gamble on his reputation, how charming is this Gongsun Zhan, and he has to do this?

Thinking of this, he called: "Yan guard, call Lin'er, what you think is up to Lin'er to decide." ”

The wait is always long.

Although Master Gao is an expert matchmaker, he has never been an official matchmaker, just a private matchmaker.

In the entire Zhuo County, there are very few people who can be bigger than his industry, and it can be said that the private media he makes are all within his ability.

And the matchmaker for the children of the official family is beyond his ability.

After waiting for a long time, I still haven't seen the county lord.

Seeing Yan Gang coming back alone, Hou Taishou hurriedly stood up and asked, "Where is Lin'er?" ”

"Yu Taishou, the county lord said that she had seen Gongsun Zhan and disappeared today."

In an instant, Hou Taishou's expression was solemn, and he asked in a low voice: "Li Gongzi, this is the husband you introduced to the little girl?" The little girl is so dissatisfied, how should you answer. ”

Before Liu Li could speak, Hou Taishou waved his hand and said, "Let's retreat first, and then I will settle accounts with you later." ”

"Yan Gang, send off!"

Liu Li and his entourage were kicked out of the mansion, but Gongsun Zhan acted like a nobody, "Brother Li, I'll just say, the identity gap between me and the county lord is too big, and I haven't even seen each other, thank you Brother Li for your kindness, Bogui disappointed you." ”

"Li'er, I told you, don't mix it up blindly, don't listen to what you say, it's okay now, introduce such a person to Hou Taishou, make him dissatisfied and don't say it for the time being, and make the county lord unhappy, the Gao family is going to be finished."

Master Gao complained on the side, he had saved the matchmaker for Gongsun Zhan, and his reputation would be ruined.

"Father-in-law, rest assured, things will take a turn for the better." Liu Li said firmly, "If Hou Taishou is really dissatisfied, with his identity and character, why hide it from us, he will definitely put us in prison on the spot, but we can still move freely now, which doesn't mean that what we see is not necessarily true." ”

As soon as they left the Hou Mansion with their front feet, a maid hurriedly ran out: "Li Gongzi, please stay, Hou Taishou, please talk alone." ”

"Father-in-law, you see, the turning point has come."

...

Back in the house, there were only Hou Taishou and Liu Li, but they saw Hou Taishou standing up and personally making tea and pouring water for Liu Li.

"Hou Taishou, you are polite here, I am a little flattered." Seeing this, Liu Li also hurriedly said.

"Eh, you sit, yes, you have chosen a good husband for the little girl."

Speaking of this, Hou Taishou saw that Liu Li was not a little surprised, but also curious: "Why, I had such an attitude with you just now, as if you already knew what would happen." ”

"The county lord is reserved, and it is inconvenient to show his face, so he has to look at Gongsun Chan in secret, and he is extremely satisfied with him." Liu Li took the tea, took a sip of it.

"Does that Li Gongzi know why I called you back?"

"It's Gongsun Zhan's identity."

Hou Taishou was shocked, and his inner thoughts were seen through by Liu Li in front of him.

"It's not my selfish interests, but the forces of the world, if the husband I choose for Lin'er has a low status, I'm afraid it will provoke criticism from the people in the court."

Liu Li was not in a hurry, and said: "Hou Taishou, I already have a plan. ”

"If you have any good plans, you might as well talk about it."

"You have also seen Gongsun Zhan's martial arts, since you are worried that his official position of Gong Cao Shuzuo is not worthy of the county lord, it is better for you to set up a martial arts competition ring and let Gongsun Chan go to participate, and when he wins, he will be named a Zhonglang general, and then recruit him as a concubine, wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone."

"Wonderful!" Hou Taishou slapped his thigh and suddenly realized, "Why didn't I think of it." ”
