It seems that Gongsun Xun was lucky to win Guan Yu this time, but if it is purely luck, it is not necessarily true... After all, if it were not for his previous actions in Zhao State, or his series of actions in the past few years,
, to some extent made some names, which made the young Guan Yu somewhat admired and recognized. I am afraid that he will not be able to do anything with just words.
Of course, putting aside all kinds of metaphysics, the most important thing is that Guan Yu's status at this time is too low... a fugitive, and he actually uses the word "immortality" in such a frivolous way! In such a situation, even Liu Bei
He can be recruited, let alone Liu Bei's eldest brother Gongsun Xun?
But thinking about it this way, it seems that the credit must be given to Gongsun Auntie. If it weren't for her, how could Gongsun Xun have imagined that a murderous fugitive from Hedong would have such abilities and potential in his body?
But no matter what, Gongsun Xun finally recruited Guan Yu into his army temporarily, and after he returned to the river embankment overnight, he was almost so excited that he almost forgot some things.
"Shuzhi, please take Changsheng to rest first." Gongsun Xun looked at the group of people standing outside his 'private custom-made workshop' and immediately became enlightened. "Changsheng, let's talk tomorrow!"
Guan Yu is not reckless. In fact, he is an extremely smart person. He just took one look and immediately realized that there must be no explanation for the assassination in the afternoon... He was a newcomer to this kind of thing and didn't know anything about it.
If you don’t understand anything, you really shouldn’t get involved.
"Junhou." After Guan Yu and Wang Xiu left, Lou Guifang withdrew his eyes from the former's particularly prominent figure, but instead frowned. "Uncle Fang asked several times, and you suddenly left again.
, We are really helpless, everyone in the state doesn’t believe what the lake bandits said..."
"It's natural. Why did the lake bandits kill Uncle Fang for no reason? I wouldn't believe it if you let me go." Gongsun Xun stopped outside the work shed. At this time, his mood was quite complicated. On one side, he had won Guan Yu, and he couldn't help being surprised and proud. On the other side, he felt
Thinking of this headache, I can't help but feel helpless and nervous. "Why, have you only received the messages from before during the past half day?"
"Absolutely." Lou Gui shook his head for a while. "My uncle worked hard before, and the two men were undoubtedly identified as lake bandits from Daluze. How they hid and how they got here is also roughly understood. But
As you said, Junhou, how can the word "Lake Bandit" win the hearts of the people in the state?"
"Then let's wait and convince people." Gongsun Xun thought for a moment, but then walked forward directly. "I'll go to sleep."
"Then..." Ju Zong couldn't help but stepped forward and asked, "How should I reply to Zhou Zhong and Uncle Fang?"
"No need to answer." Gongsun Xun responded in a loud voice without looking back. "Just tell everyone that I went out to investigate the case for Uncle Fang's safety. I have worked hard for half a night and am already exhausted. Let them come to me again tomorrow.
Okay. Of course, if anyone really wants to talk, it’s not impossible, just ask them to come to me here in person, and I’ll be waiting for you on the couch at any time.”
Juzong hesitated to speak, but as he spoke, Gongsun Xun had already entered the 'work shed' where he usually rested, and the two attendants who were on duty directly stood in front of the door with their swords straddled... In this situation, Jugong
But he couldn't pursue him anymore, so he could only turn around and sigh, preparing to deal with the officials in the state.
After all, the night was getting dark, and the rest of the Zhao people dispersed in a hurry when they saw Gongsun Xun supporting them.
Lou Zibo, on the other hand, after wandering for two steps, suddenly turned around and said hello to the two attendants, and then invited them in through the thick curtain.
"Is it actually Zibo?" Gongsun Xun sat cross-legged on the couch and yawned when he heard the noise outside. "It's just a waste of time for me to rejoice... Come in now."
"Your Majesty is so exhausted but still unwilling to rest. You must be waiting for guests?" After Lou Gui opened the door and went in, he twitched his beard and smiled softly. "Can you allow me to listen for a moment?"
"You even dare to say what you said at noon, so why can't you listen?" Gongsun Xun couldn't help but shake his head. "Sit down by the bedside and the stove. There is cold air on the ground."
Lou Gui nodded lightly and simply sat beside the bed, waiting quietly with Gongsun Xun for someone to come.
And sure enough, a moment later, a greeting suddenly came from outside the work shed: "Zhang Sheng, a common man, please see the king if you have anything to do!"
Lou Guideng suddenly understood.
……………………
As soon as Zhang Sheng entered the work shed, he immediately knelt down on the ground... It was obvious that he was asking for forgiveness.
"Tell me." Gongsun Xun looked tired and just sighed. "Who was in charge of this matter, and did you know about it beforehand?"
Zhang Sheng's face was pale and he couldn't kneel down. Then he kowtowed with all his strength and said: "Sheng only came to his senses after seeing the bodies of these two people. As for the instigator, I can only say that it was not the work of Zhao Guotai Ping Dao..."
"That's what your great virtuous master personally ordered in Julu." Lou Gui said with a low face. "Is that right?"
"The great virtuous teacher may not know about it." Zhang Sheng knelt on the ground and explained sincerely. "I think someone made the decision privately..."
"Who is this person? Your Taiping Dao is really full of talents!"
"..."
"Look," Lou Gui kept chasing after him with a straight face. "Dalu Ze is located in the center of Julu County. Since the lake bandits there are related to your Taiping Dao, they can only be directly subordinate to your great sage! And!
How big a deal is it to assassinate the governor of a state? If it weren’t for your great sage and mentor’s approval, who could make the decision?”
"..."
"Taoist Zhang!" Lou Gui also had an angry look on his face. "Please ask yourself, is my monarch treating you Taiping Road kindly? Is he even more generous to you, Zhang Sheng? He built this Xiadi,
Does your kindness to the people of Zhao State go against your philosophy of "promoting peace"? But what do you mean by taking action here? Isn't it because you are deliberately implicating my prince? It's nothing like others, but you are completely
Don’t you understand the word grace?”
"If I wasn't grateful for Gongsun Lingjun's kindness, how could I come to plead guilty?" For a long time, under Lou Gui's repeated questioning, Zhang Sheng could only say this.
"Master Zhang, don't talk big words." Lou Gui sneered. "In fact, after all, since we know that these two people failed to escape, and they left their bodies behind and were recognized as coming from Daluze, then my king will treat you peacefully.
If you pay attention to Tao, the truth will be revealed sooner or later... Others don't know it, but you should know this truth, right?"
Zhang Daoren was speechless for a moment.
"Are you feeling grateful when you come here this time, or do you know that denial is useless, so you come here to pretend to be loyal and loyal?" Lou Gui's sarcasm became more and more straightforward. "I'm afraid that's the case.
Only God knows!”
Zhang Sheng's heart became more and more desolate... This was the problem, he was no longer human inside and out.
"Forget it!" However, at this moment, Gongsun Xun, who was sitting on the couch, suddenly spoke but actually shouted to stop Lou Gui. "He also has his difficulties... As the leader of the local Taiping Road, he was beaten by Julu.
Bian easily concealed this matter, which shows that either Julu treats him as nothing or does not believe him. Moreover," at this point, Gongsun Xun shook his head gently. "This matter is Zhang Jiao, even if it is not Zhang Jiao.
Two younger brothers did it. However, the Great Master is like a teacher and a lord to him. Even though everyone knows what is going on, how can he possibly admit that one of the three brothers is out?"
Zhang Sheng's face was ashen.
"That's true." Lou Gui sighed. "But after all, we are three brothers, so it doesn't matter..."
"It should be Zhang Bao!" Zhang Sheng suddenly fell to the ground and gave a name. "And it has something to do with the prince's release of me that day!"
Gongsun Xun and Lou Zibo looked at each other.
"Zhang Bao has always been anxious and arrogant." Now that Zhang Sheng has spoken, he has become more straightforward. "He became a great doctor just because he is the younger brother of a great virtuous teacher... That day, my husband Ma and I were arrested and released by Ming Gong.
Later, he thought that the prince did not show me the letter, and sent someone to pretend to ask. However, in order to unite the church, I did not mention the letter. I just said that it was what the prince said.
The governor Liu Gong forces you to clean up Taiping Road."
Gongsun Xun exchanged glances with Lou Gui again, but neither said a word... Liu Yan's relationship was actually ruined because of the forged letters between the two. I don't know whose fault it was?!
"Later, he made a statement in the church, saying that he would deal with the governor Liu and the princes... The great wise master had reprimanded him that day." Zhang Sheng became more and more angrily as he spoke. "I also thought the matter would end here. Who knows?
I never imagined that he secretly mobilized the Yellow Turban warriors hiding in the mainland's swamps!"
"Is this the Yellow Turban Warrior?" Gongsun Xun immediately became interested.
"That's right." Zhang Sheng said helplessly. "The Yellow Turban Warriors are a collection of brave believers selected by great sages and mentors, and are specially used to protect the safety of Julu Headquarters. Because after the last rebellion, the government will inevitably keep a closer eye on them.
So he was placed in Ohnoze, where dragons and snakes are mixed, and Zhang Bao was put in charge. Who would have thought that he would secretly use the Yellow Turban Warriors to cause such trouble! In one act of ignorance, we, the Taiping Road of Zhao Kingdom, fell into such an unbearable situation! "
"I understand." Gongsun Xun understood clearly and waved his hand to indicate that there was no need to say more.
"Your Majesty!" Zhang Sheng said with his last effort. "I am afraid that the Great Master is really unaware of this matter, so I am willing to be a messenger and go to Julu to communicate something. In the final analysis, the Great Master has no regard for the Lord.
Malice, this assassination is only aimed at the envoy, and the prince has always been kind to us in Taiping Road! Our two families will not meet with swordsmanship!"
Lou Gui twirled his beard and looked at Gongsun Xun involuntarily.
"In this case, I will hide it from Uncle Fang for the time being. You might as well go to Julu and ask your great sage for me whether he approves of this matter?" Gongsun Xun thought for a long time, but
He actually agreed to the other party's plan.
Zhang Sheng was overjoyed... he kowtowed quickly, and then actually left overnight.
"Lord." Lou Zibo was half-monitoring and half-watching this person go away, and then got back into the 'work shed'. "Is this person really ignorant? How can you tell the truth from a one-sided statement? Could it be that he just wants to take the opportunity to escape?
Control? There is also the fact that we forged letters that day. If Zhang Bao didn’t come to ask, maybe we could hide it, but now that Zhang Bao comes to ask, it’s hard to tell, right?”
"It doesn't matter." Gongsun Xun, who was sitting on the couch, couldn't help but yawned. "Maybe this person is an accomplice, maybe not; maybe this person knows that you and I forged letters to alienate them that day, maybe he doesn't know, but just
A person who takes the overall situation into consideration and strives for perfection...but what does this have to do with you and me?"
Lou Zibo was confused for a moment: "Isn't it none of our business? If Uncle Fang knew, he was actually assassinated because of some words in the forged letters between you and me..."
"So what?" Gongsun Xun slowly shook his head. "It's all minutiae. Everyone has his or her own opinion. Uncle Fang himself even made a suggestion to the court about the Taiping Road. Is this still considered an injustice to him?! Now...
The only fact that can be determined is that Taiping Dao failed to assassinate Uncle Fang."
"That's true." Lou Gui said with a sudden look on his face, and he drew inferences from one example. "For Zhang Sheng's trip, his personal attitude does not matter. The key is to see if Zhang Jiao has the intention to fall out with the court at this time... If the other party does not want to have trouble,
Naturally, we can communicate through this channel. Of course, it also depends on what Uncle Fang’s attitude is."
"Zhang Jue's attitude can't be guessed at the moment. As for Uncle Fang, I'll go see him!" Gongsun Xun stood up suddenly, holding back his tiredness.
"If we meet at this time, can Uncle Fang be able to make a decision?" Lou Zibo was extremely speechless. "Taipingdao has a deep foundation, and there are thirty-six directions in the world. Uncle Fang is also someone who is forward-looking and afraid of backwards..."
"Uncle Zi, you think too much." Gongsun Xun shook his head and laughed while putting on his shoes. "I just stayed up half the night and was unbearably sleepy, but I couldn't sleep, so I might as well ask Uncle Fang to sleep with me too!"
Lou Gui raised his eyebrows and became even more speechless.
The results are immediate.
Liu Yan couldn't sleep well. When he heard that Taiping Dao was responsible, he became furious almost instantly and even kicked the urinal on the ground in front of Gongsun Xun!
Fortunately, there was no time to put anything in it!
However, after getting angry, especially after learning that it was probably Zhang Bao who acted secretly, Liu Junlang finally became at a loss: "Wenqi, the matter has come to this, what can we do?! I am the governor of a state, under my rule
If you are assassinated or even almost killed, you can't pretend that nothing is wrong, right? But Taiping Road..."
Gongsun Xun stood on the spot, his mind wandering... To be honest, he wanted to see what kind of power Taiping Dao had at this time?!
So, after a moment's pause, Gongsun Xun gave an obligatory reply: "It all depends on Uncle Fang's orders!"

"Where the wind passed, a yellow turban warrior appeared, but what he saw was: his face was like ruby and his beard was like soap velvet. He seemed to have a body of ten feet and a strength of a thousand kilograms vertically and horizontally. On the side of the yellow turban, a golden ring was shining with the sun's rays; in the middle of the embroidered jacket, there was an iron armor frost
Swallowing the shadow of the moon, he always protects the Dharma in front of the altar and subdues demons every time he comes to the world." - "Water Margin"
