Since he has already confronted Gongsun Du and Gongsun Chen, the top priority is to maintain a good relationship with the Gongsun clan first.

"The first strike is stronger, you must first visit the elders of the clan before waiting for Gongsun Du and Gongsun Chen to speak ill of the clan elders in front of them." Liu Li proposed.

But Gongsun Zhan's face was embarrassed, he didn't want to have too much contact with the Gongsun family, after all, he once followed his father to leave Liaoxi County and come to Zhuo County, even if he was just a county official in Zhuo County, he was willing.

The ideal is very beautiful, the reality is very skinny, in the Han Dynasty, it is basically the world of everyone in the world, if there is no protection from everyone in the world, Gongsun Chan is afraid that even the county officials will not be able to do it.

"Brother Bogui, you are now going to serve as the Taishou of Liaoxi County, and you are a local parent official, if you don't even visit the local family, I'm afraid that you will lose the hearts of the locals." Liu Li persuaded.

Gongsun Zhan hesitated, but this was just a knot in his heart, in fact, he knew very well that going to visit the Gongsun family in Liaoxi County was something that had to be done, otherwise, he would not even support his own family, let alone the people of Liaoxi County.

"It's just that since we will go, then Gongsun Du and Gongsun Chen will definitely go, and they will not stop when they come to Liaoxi County this time." Gongsun Chan was worried.

After all, Gongsun Du and Gongsun Chan were aggressive, and they seemed to use an invisible knife on Gongsun Zhan's neck.

"Then you have to go, they first came to persuade you, and when they saw that you were soft and hard, they would go to the elders of the clan to help and put pressure on you, and then it would be really too late."

Gongsun Zhan made up his mind and stood up suddenly: "Without further ado, then we will go to visit a few elders in the clan." ”

As Liu Li expected, as soon as Gongsun Du and Gongsun Chen left the mansion of Liaoxi County, they hurried to the mansion of the head of the Gongsun family.

...

Liaoxi County, the residence of the Gongsun family.

Gongsun Du and Gongsun Chen came in the dust, and when they saw Gongsun Yan, the leader of the Gongsun family, the two of them changed their usual flying and domineering, and said respectfully: "I have seen the head of the family." ”

Gongsun Yan deliberately squinted his eyes and closed his eyes to recuperate, as if he didn't hear the two of them calling him.

Gongsun Du and Gongsun Chen looked at each other, and then, Gongsun Chen raised his voice and shouted: "The head of the family, Gongsun Chen, Gongsun Du, father and son ask to see each other." ”

"Huh?" Gongsun Yan slowly opened his eyes, looked at the two people in front of him, and asked lazily: "What, you two don't do a good job of guarding the county, what are you doing in Liaoxi County?" ”

Gongsun Chen said with a smile: "Family master, our father and son are here to see you in Liaoxi County, it's not good that we haven't come back for a long time, our home is still here after all." ”

"If you have nothing to do, don't beat around the bush if you have something to say, you two are here, it's not just as simple as saying hello to me, an old man." Gongsun Yan snorted coldly.

Gongsun Chen grew up under his watch, a whole generation younger than him, what was he thinking in his heart, Gongsun Yan knew very well.

"It seems that nothing can be hidden from the head of the family." Gongsun Chan said with a smile, "My father and son came here, so naturally they asked the head of the family to comment on something, and it was the new Liaoxi County Taishou Gongsun Zhan." ”

"Oh, the newly appointed Taishou of Liaoxi County, what's the matter, you want to trouble him?" Gongsun Yan said unceremoniously.

This statement frightened Gongsun Chen and hurriedly denied it: "No, they are also from the Gongsun family, how can we trouble him, of course..."

Before he finished speaking, the stubble was snatched by Gongsun Du: "I just want to trouble him, who asked him to join forces with Youzhou Mu Liu Yu and invite him to deal with Liu Yu together, he is good, he eats inside and out, and even wants to deal with us." ”

"Oh?" Hearing these words, Gongsun Yan's eyes became fierce and asked.

Gongsun Chan saw that the atmosphere was a little embarrassing, and hurriedly said: "The head of the family, Du'er means that this Gongsun Zhan, as a newly appointed Taishou of Liaoxi County, did not take these elders of our Gongsun family seriously. ”

"Elders? What kind of elders are you? Gongsun Yan asked.

Gongsun Chan smiled awkwardly and said: "According to the seniority of the clan, Du'er is Gongsun Zhan's brother, and I am Gongsun Zhan's uncle, isn't this an elder?" ”

"The two of you, just see the wind and make the rudder, and see that Gongsun Zan is now the Taishou of Liaoxi County, so you are busy climbing the relationship, moral kidnapping, and let him help you deal with Youzhou Mu Liu Yu together, that's what it means, right?" Gongsun Yan was dismissive.

"That's nothing, family master, you misunderstood, our Gongsun family is very united, but Gongsun Chan is not very united, so I want you to come forward and talk about him." Gongsun Chen said with a smile.

"It seems that you two county guards have already touched a nose of dust on his side." Gongsun Yan said with a smile.

Gongsun Chen only felt a little embarrassed, and hurriedly explained: "That's not it, it's just..."

Before he could finish speaking, he saw Gongsun Yan continue to squint his eyes: "I'm an old man, I'm old, don't be embarrassed about the affairs between you young people, I can't take care of it." ”

Seeing that Gongsun Yan didn't want to be nosy, Gongsun Du hurriedly said: "Family master, you don't look at how arrogant Liu Yu is that Youzhou Mu, you know, originally this Youzhou Mu was mine, but now it's good, he robbed it, you also helped a lot in this matter at the time, it can be said that Liu Yu didn't take you in his eyes at all." ”

When Gongsun Chen heard this, he shouted: "Du'er, don't talk nonsense, this is the head of the family." ”

"I didn't talk nonsense, in my opinion, this Gongsun Chan didn't take you as the head of the family in his eyes at all, otherwise, he wouldn't have come to visit you until now."

After all, Gongsun Du and Gongsun Cheng had just left from the Liaoxi County Shoufu, and Gongsun Zan and his party naturally did not arrive so quickly.

"So what?" Gongsun Yan didn't pay so much attention to form.

"You are the head of the Gongsun clan, and you used to be an official in the imperial court..."

But seeing Gongsun Yan waving his hand, he signaled: "Don't mention the past again, if you keep dwelling on the past, it will be too boring." ”

"Hmph, I think you're afraid of Gongsun Zan and Liu Yu, the head of the family." Gongsun Du snorted coldly and deliberately provoked.

Gongsun Chen played a double reed on the side: "Du'er, don't talk nonsense, what is the identity of the head of the family, Liu Yu is a junior in front of him, will he be in his eyes?" ”

"You two, don't provoke the old man, the old man did serve as an official in the court in the early years, but that was all in the past, and if you mention it now, it will seem that the old man is still immersed in the past." Gongsun Yan said with a smile, "It's the world of young people now, you can deal with it as you want, it's up to you." ”

"Nope." Gongsun Du was the first to object, "The head of the family, this Gongsun Zhan is originally a member of the Gongsun family, you are the head of the family, as an elder, you have to take care of him." ”

Bang!

Gongsun Yan slapped the table suddenly: "What tone do you use to speak to the old man?" ”

This shot frightened Gongsun Chen and hurriedly scolded Gongsun Du and said, "Du'er, don't be rude." ”

Gongsun Yan slowly stood up, his eyes were fierce, "Gongsun Du, Gongsun Chen, what kind of medicine are you selling in the gourd, I can't know better, you plan to borrow a knife to kill people, and let Gongsun Chan deal with Liu Yu, but no matter how Gongsun Chan is, he is also a member of the Gongsun family, and now he has become the Taishou of Liaoxi County, which is the pride of the Gongsun family, how can you push him into the fire pit because of the selfishness of the two of you." ”

"The head of the family, my father-in-law and I are the Taishou of Liaodong County and Xuansu County, you have to consider the overall situation and the Gongsun family."

"What, are you threatening the old man?"

"No, no." Seeing that the atmosphere became tense instantly, Gongsun Chan hurriedly played a round and said: "The head of the family, Du'er doesn't mean this, what we mean is to ask the head of the family to come forward and let Gongsun Chan help us deal with Liu Yu together, and after the imperial court deposes Liu Yu's Youzhou Mu, he is still the Taishou of Liaoxi County, what do you think." ”

Gongsun Yan sat down slowly and said, "No, now that the invasion of Xianbei in the north is coming, the people of the Gongsun family should work together to deal with Xianbei, and there should be no internal fighting." ”

"Well said!" Gongsun Yan had just finished speaking, but he heard a loud voice from outside the house.

Zhang Fei took the lead in running into the mansion, and after hearing Gongsun Yan's words, he said with admiration: "You old man is really sensible, the current foreign enemy, you should work together to deal with the foreign enemy, and you should not fight here openly and secretly." ”

"You, why are you here?" Gongsun Du asked in surprise.

"You guy, it seems that the lesson I taught you before was not enough." Zhang Fei ran to Gongsun Du with an arrow step, glared at him viciously, and grabbed him by the collar.

Gongsun Du hurriedly begged for mercy: "This strong man, don't, I didn't embarrass you, what do you want to do, this is the mansion of the head of the Gongsun family." ”

"I don't care what the head of the family is, if you annoy my Lao Zhang, I have to give you a few punches." Zhang Fei raised his fist and wanted to smash it in the face of Gongsun Du.

"Third brother, stop." Liu Li then arrived.

Gongsun Zhan also arrived and said with a smile: "Brother Yide is really walking like a fly. ”

After Zhang Fei heard Liu Li's words, he hurriedly put Gongsun Du down, "I'll let you go this time." ”

"I've seen the head of the house." Gongsun Zhan took the lead in stepping forward, bowed his hand, and said.

"You're Gongsun Zhan?" Gongsun Yan looked Gongsun Chan up and down, and nodded approvingly, "A talent, really young and promising." ”

I don't know when, the elders of the Gongsun family also arrived one after another, and when they saw Gongsun Yan praising him like this, they also echoed one after another: "Yes, Bo Gui is only in his early twenties, and he has become the local parent official of Liaoxi County. ”

Although Gongsun Zhan was born in the Gongsun clan, the elders of the Gongsun clan didn't know him very well, and they had only heard of his name.

Secondly, this Chenglong fast son-in-law was snatched from Liu He, the eldest son of Liu Yu, which is enough to explain his ability.
