By the way, Gongsun Xun first told Jia Chao the whole story and then rescued Jia Ping. Naturally, the two brothers hugged each other and cried. Although they were reluctant to let go after the exchange, they also knew that this was probably the best thing.
It ended, so the two of them kowtowed to Gongsun Xun again. One went home to appease his wife, and the other just returned home for one day and followed Gongsun Xun to leave his hometown again... It was really sad.
Let’s not talk about Jia Ping, let’s just say that after Gongsun Xun and Jia Chao witnessed such an accident, Gongsun Shaojun no longer had the idea of ‘asking about customs’, but was full of concerns.
He ran directly to Tangyang City to find Gongsun Zan, Zhen Yi and others.
However, when they reluctantly arrived at Tangyang City in the evening, they found out that the large army had left Tangyang early this morning and went straight to Julu County Junzhi Litao City... This was something that was expected, so
Gongsun Xun didn't pay attention, but rested for the night in Tangyang City and went to catch up the next day.
Unexpectedly, as the saying goes, one wave comes after another, and Gongsun Xun never expected that another incident would happen on the night he missed.
"What happened?" On the road, he met Liu Bei who claimed to be coming to pick him up. Gongsun Xun was naturally a little confused. "Why do I need you to pick me up?"
"It's not a big deal." Liu Bei was proud of himself on his horse and didn't know how to get down to salute. In just a few days, he was led like a hooligan by a group of nobles. "Last night we were at a big house in Litao City.
Staying overnight, the owner of the household hosted a banquet, and there was a eunuch's son at the banquet. It was said that he was some kind of nephew of Zhao Changshi..."
Han Dang and others behind him made a slight commotion, and Gongsun Xun also raised his eyelids with an indifferent expression.
"Brother Xun, you don't know." Liu Bei continued to explain. "Although this man was placed in the chief position by his master, he had no etiquette. After he heard that Brother Dayin (Zhen Yi) was the nephew of Jinwu, the ruler of the dynasty, he
He called Brother Dayin over and had to force him to drink. Brother Dayin was not happy at first, and was insulted by the man in public, and even mentioned his ancestors... But later, I don’t know what happened, Brother Dayin turned out to be resentful.
I apologized after drinking! Because we were sitting far away, we didn’t know much about this at first. After we came back, we saw him crying alone in the guest room, and then we knew the whole story. Brother Bogui said, even on weekdays
If he is not from the same family, he is also from the same sect, so we cannot let him be humiliated in vain, so the brothers from Youzhou are discussing, saying that they want to teach the nephew of Zhao Changshi a lesson, let him see the courage of a Youzhou man, and then
Let’s hit the road again…”
Liu Bei was talking nonchalantly, Gongsun Xun listened expressionlessly, and the latter suddenly hit his horse and headed directly in the direction of Litao City. Han Dang and others behind him also hit their horses and followed closely behind without saying a word.
This caused Liu Bei to yell and scream from behind, catching him off guard.
In the home of a wealthy family in Litao City, the entire row of wing rooms has been used as a temporary guest room. At this time, one of the rooms was bustling with activity.
"Let me tell you, we will have a banquet tonight and invite the man named Zhao over for a drink, and we will also drink him to death during the dinner! As the saying goes, give him back what he has done..."
"Just stay here... Where is this allusion to using someone else's plan to do something to someone else? It sounds quite elegant?"
"What are the allusions to our common sayings in Beiping? I have heard them since I was born."
“Why haven’t I, the Shanggu people, heard of it?”
"Don't make any noise. I'm not sure this idea is a good idea. You see, the key to this matter is that Brother Zhen was insulted and his ancestors were insulted, not that he was force-fed alcohol..."
"Then it would be an insult to his ancestor named Zhao."
"But if this is the case, Brother Zhen's uncle is Zhi Jinwu, his ancestor is a Taibao, the uncle named Zhao is just a eunuch, and his ancestor is just a middle-class family, and his name may not even be clear... He is humiliated back and forth, isn't it?
Want to suffer a loss?"
"That's true."
"Then what should we do? You don't know, Brother Zhen cried so miserably last night. It is said that he even called the names of his wife and son after vomiting in the middle of the night. It was really sad to hear it and shed tears to the listener."
"If you ask me, we men from the border county should not engage in such frivolous things. We will just talk about the banquet in the evening, and when the man named Zhao comes, let him apologize. If he resists, just beat him up. If he is still not convinced, just take it out.
Put the knife on his neck and make him kneel down and kowtow to Brother Zhen!"
"That's easy."
"Just do it!"
"What do you think, Brother Bogui?" A group of energetic scholars from the border counties finished their discussion and finally set their sights on Gongsun Zan, the leader here.
Gongsun Zan, who was sitting beside Ji, pondered for a moment, and finally nodded: "Then do this, no matter what, you must give this breath to Brother Dayin!"
"No!"
"Absolutely not!"
Just when Gongsun Zan nodded and was about to finalize this simple and direct revenge action, two voices suddenly came from outside the door, one near and one far away. Everyone looked up and saw that it was Zhen who had gotten up from nowhere.
Yizhen Dayin, with a pale face and red eyes, was holding her head against the doorframe.
The one who shouted from a distance was Gongsun Xun who had just walked quickly behind Zhen Yi.
"Why not?" Gongsun Zan straightened up and asked disapprovingly. "Brother Dayin, we are just venting our anger on you! How could you swallow the kind of insult you received yesterday? You must know that your ancestors were scolded by others.
It does not belong to me, Gongsun Zan."
"You have to swallow it if you can't." The one who spoke for the blushing Zhen Yi was naturally Gongsun Xun, who was already in front of him. "Brother, this matter needs long-term consideration."
Gongsun Zan raised his eyebrows. Although he had an awkward personality, he was older after all and had been a county official. Now that he saw his clan brother and Zhen Yi react like this, he didn't know that there must be something in it.
Hidden story? So he quickly waved his hand and let a group of over-energetic teenagers settle down again.
By the way, everyone sat down again, but this time it was Zhen Yi who spoke first. He first thanked these fellow disciples who were kind-hearted after all, and then anxiously educated the children of the border counties about the tyranny of the eunuch children in Jizhou.
However, this guy always talks about some adjectives, such as "powerful", "ruining family and family", and "unscrupulous", but he can't say anything convincing. And now
In the eyes of these young and energetic children from the border county, Zhen Yi's behavior was purely timid and fearful.
Seeing a group of ignorant brats starting to make noise again, Gongsun Xun finally couldn't stand it any longer, so he stood up and told everyone about the story about the daughter of the prefect of Runan who was "played and killed" by Xia Pi.
This was an instant success. Not to mention this group of people, even Gongsun Zan turned pale. Liu Bei, who arrived later and happened to hear this story, was even more at a loss and shouted to run away... No wonder, this guy is so talented
I just had my hair tied, and I'm still a naughty kid.
"So, in this inland county, the eunuchs are the most powerful?" Gongsun Zan asked with all his strength.
"That's right." Zhen Yi nodded helplessly. "Now you know why I had to tolerate it last night, right? It's not that I'm shameless, but it's just that if I do something bad, my family will be affected... Don't all of your classmates have family members?
?”
The whole audience was in awe.
"So, I appreciate the kindness of all my colleagues!" After saying that, Zhen Yi stood up and bowed to everyone. "But please don't drag everyone down because of my own affairs. This matter ends here.
Now that everyone is here, let’s quickly pack up and leave the city!”
Everyone was silent... Although they believed it in their hearts and were a little afraid, they were still young and couldn't wipe away that face. For a moment, only the young Liu Bei shouted something, and then he ran out anxiously after Zhen Yi.
But Gongsun Zan and others stayed where they were with pale faces and remained motionless.
"I'm going to greet all my colleagues about their travel arrangements. Jizhou is fertile and the roads are smooth. Let's hurry up as soon as possible. Maybe we can continue to live in the city tonight." Gongsun Xun stood up with a normal expression and ignored these people.
the meaning of.
In this way, everyone left with a gloomy look, and then left Litao City and headed south. In the evening, they stayed in Bairen City, which was actually very close. Not to mention the warm hospitality of the host, they just said that Gongsun Xun came back from the dinner party.
Neither sleeping nor reading, he took out the knife in the guest room, sat by the bed, and started wiping it carefully in front of the candlelight.
"Ah Xun, why haven't you slept yet?" When the surrounding area gradually became quiet, Gongsun Zan suddenly walked in from the open door.
"I'm waiting for my eldest brother to come find me." Gongsun Xun replied proudly.
"I think so." Gongsun Zan sat sternly opposite his clan brother. "Although eunuchs are powerful, we can't just be afraid of them. Our brothers in Liaoxi, from hanging around in the officialdom of the county to fighting for their lives with the Xianbei people, when will
Do you feel guilty? This matter is the first difficult thing you and I encountered when we left our hometown. If we can't overcome it, how can we get ahead in the future?! You have been full of ideas since you were young, so you must have had some concerns in your mind, right?"
"The eunuchs have great power, and they are indeed capricious and unscrupulous, so they really cannot fight head-on." Gongsun Xun responded while wiping his knife. "If you want to have a result in this matter, the best thing would be to do it at the banquet that day.
Just regain the momentum before things get too big, and then leave directly... Of course, it's a little late to say that."
"Then let's talk about it before it's too late." Gongsun Zan stared at the knife in his clan brother's hand with great interest.
"If it's not too late, brother, what do you think of this? We can pretend that nothing is wrong and walk slowly for two days. After we leave Julu County, everyone will have forgotten about this matter. By then,
"How about we brothers take advantage of the night to go back quickly with a few of our comrades and kill this guy named Zhao with one knife?" After saying that, Gongsun Xun calmly handed the knife handle outward to his clan brother.
Gongsun Bogui.
"Good!" Gongsun Zan took the knife without hesitation.
"Taizu, his elder brother Gongsun Zan, and his younger brother Gongsun Yue studied together in Fengshi Mountain... The children of Yan and Zhao greatly admired the brilliance of their brothers, vying to cling to them and feel proud of them." - "Old Book of Yan", Volume 1.
