The horse-drawn cart was much faster than the ox-cart, and soon arrived at the Gongsun's house in the city.

The housekeeper Fu Bo saw Li Laohan, Li Xiaoyue, and Li Changhuan respectfully stepped forward, "Master Li, Mrs. Li, Miss Changhuan, Young Master Changfu, the old lady and the old man commanded, when you arrive, I will take you in directly." ”

The guests who were originally queuing up at the door to enter Gongsun's house were all shocked and looked at Li Xiaoyue and his party.

Some acquaintances have exchanged heads and discussed in private.

Many people don't know Li Xiaoyue, but they know Li Changfu, manage the Li family's shop, and have a small reputation in the county.

Originally, they didn't think the Li family was how, but seeing that the Gongsun family was so courteous, they also began to re-examine the Li family, who was born in a peasant family.

Fu Bo personally took Li Xiaoyue and others to the living room, but he didn't expect that in addition to the next person, there were only Mrs. Gongsun and Mr. Gongsun.

Mr. Gongsun's gaze fell on the two boxes in her hand when Li Xiaoyue came in.

What's in that box?

Old Madam Gongsun chuckled, "No courtesy, Xiao Yue, last time you said you wanted to make me an improved leaf card, did you bring it this time?" ”

Li Xiaoyue nodded and laughed crisply: "Back to the old lady, bring it!" It's in this box, but today is Mr. Gongsun's birthday, is it appropriate for us to play cards? ”

"Suitable, what's inappropriate." Old Madam Gongsun stood up and walked straight to the table, "Pour it out and show me." ”

Li Changhuan put the box containing the finch card on the table and poured it out, and explained to the old lady how to recognize the card.

Li Xiaoyue handed the small box on it to Gongsun Lian, "Mr. Gongyong, your birthday is healthy." ”

Gongsun Lian got up and stretched out his hands, "Thank you Mrs. Li for the birthday gift!" ”

Li Xiaoyue presented another box to Mrs. Gongsun, "Old lady, this is a gift that my father prepared for you, please accept it." ”

Old Madam Gongsun was surprised, "I still have a gift?" Hey, hey, I received a double gift today, and I got a cheap light. ”

At this time, she didn't recognize the card, opened the box, took out the combined folding fan from it, and gently pushed it open, "Songhe longevity map, it's really good, this is Xiaoyue, you drew it?" ”

Li Xiaoyue smiled, "I have learned a few strokes before, which made the old lady laugh." ”

Fortunately, in order to catch up with Liu Yunde's footsteps, the original Li Xiaoyue kept studying, and she was looking forward to adding fragrance to her red sleeves, and she made a mistake with her true feelings.

Mrs. Gongsun looked at the words behind her, "This is like a poem, not like it, but it has a beautiful meaning." Xiaoyue, you have great talent. ”

Li Xiaoyue waved her hand and replied modestly: "I overheard someone chanting it, write it down, it was not Xiaoyue's doing." ”

Gongsun Lian couldn't wait to open the box, took it out from it, it was also a folding fan, and gently pushed it open, a picture of arrogant and tenacious green bamboo.

Clusters of green bamboos, standing in the crevices of the rocks, swaying in the wind, tenacious and tenacious.

The poem praises the noble sentiment of the bamboo that is rooted in the broken rock by chanting its noble sentiment of never following the crowd.

At this moment, Gongsun Lian was hit hard in the deepest part of his heart.

He thinks someone understands him!

With his ingenuity and fame, as long as he follows the rules and goes with the flow, over time, he will definitely be able to rise to the top and become an official.

After being admitted to the meritorious service, he returned to his hometown to worship his ancestors, and when the Treaty State committed a crime, he cooperated with General Huo to defeat the Treaty Country and invade it.

From that time on, he realized that after more than 20 years of recuperation, Dayan already had many civilian officials, but there were fewer and fewer military generals, and even fewer military advisors with excellent strategy.

He abandoned his pen and began a military career of half his life.

Even if he was seriously injured, he never regretted it.

Gongsun Lian didn't want people to see his gaffe, so he praised the folding fan very well, he liked it very much, and went out.

Standing in his garden, he looked up into the distance, open-minded and high-spirited.

When Major General Huo came in, he saw the military advisor playing with the folding fan in his hand and the rustic brown pebble fan pendant under the folding fan, "Military advisor, your fan is very novel?" ”

He reached out to take it, but was clapped by Gongsun Lian.

"Don't mess around!" Gongsun Lian hurriedly closed the folding fan and held it in his hand.

Seeing the fan folded into a bunch, General Huo Shao was surprised, "This fan is good, it doesn't take up space." If you don't want to hold it, you can pin it to your belt. ”

"Strategist, where did you buy it? I also want to buy one, and when I return to Beijing, I will definitely be able to pretend to be in front of those sons. ”

"Boring!" Gongsun Lian put the folding fan into his sleeve, turned around and entered the house, "Why are you free to come?" ”

"Soldier's birthday, how can I not come?" General Huo Shao smiled, leaning close to Gongsun Lian's ear, "I have found evidence that Liu Zicheng ate empty salary, what should the military advisor do next?" ”

Gongsun Lian was stunned for a moment, greatly surprised him, "How long has it been since you started to be greedy?" ”

Major General Huo shook his head and smiled bitterly, "There is no morning or evening, only dare!" Liu Zicheng knows that His Majesty is suspicious of our father and son, and he is deeply trusted by His Majesty, even if we send this evidence, we may not be able to bring Liu Zicheng down. ”

Gongsun Lian gently opened the folding fan, fanned it gently, and the breeze came slowly, so that his irritable heart slowly calmed down.

"In fact, even if you get rid of Liu Zicheng, there should be Wang Zicheng and Sun Zicheng...... Your Majesty will be even more suspicious of us. Instead of being passive again and again, it is better to keep Liu Zicheng and control it in our hands. ”

General Huo Shao actually thinks so, rather than changing it back and forth, and having to bother investigating, it is better to keep Liu Zicheng and stare at him.

The spies and some people who were planted by Liu Zicheng's side and some people who monitored him could also continue to play a role.

When it really came to the time when the Treaty State invaded the border, he would find a way to control Liu Zicheng, and then take over the military power, defeat the Treaty State, ensure the safety of Zhenxi Pass, and keep the northwest.

No matter how mediocre the emperor of the capital is, he will not kill a general who has saved Zhenxiguan at a critical juncture.

Of course, doing so also means exceeding his authority and being feared by the emperor.

However, General Huo Shao didn't care, he was not sure to keep Zhenxi Pass, but because there was a military advisor who got these gunpowder under the inspiration of Li Niangzi, he was confident.

"Strategist, you're right." General Huo Shao agreed, "We should be quiet and not move, not only the people of the imperial court are staring at us, but in fact, the people of the Deed State are also staring at us." ”

Gongsun Lian sighed, "There are wolves and tigers in front of you, but there are more dangerous situations than this." Don't worry, we'll get through this time. ”

With the guarantee of the military advisor, General Huo Shao was more confident.

Just because he's young and vigorous doesn't mean he's stupid.

This is a war, not a tour, which will kill people. He fought with his warriors and tried his best to bring them back.

At this moment, a hearty laugh came, "Brother Gongsun, congratulations on your birthday!" ”

With the laughter, a slender and tall bearded uncle with a handsome white face appeared outside the Moon Gate.

Gongsun Lian turned his head, and he had to sigh, he looked like a crown of jade, his appearance was dignified, and he looked very upright, who would have thought that the real situation in private would be so absurd and wanton?

He used to drink and talk with such a person and imagine his career, but he didn't expect that by mistake, neither of them became civilian officials, but joined the army!

Later, the two had different political views, he was the main battle, and Liu became the main peace.

When the Treaty country came to attack, no matter what the reason was, and whether it could be fought or not, Liu Zicheng first sought peace.

The differences are getting bigger and bigger, and the friends turn against each other and go their separate ways.

Liu Zichang is good at dancing, kneeling and licking upwards, strict downwards, forming a party for personal gain, and now he is now an official residence.

Gongsun Liancai five products!

Gassy!

However, when Gongsun Lian's gaze fell on the green bamboo on the fan in his hand, all the inconsistencies were relieved!
