Liu Bei's words made the atmosphere here become somewhat silent. Although several years of separation had not made them unfamiliar, Gongsun Zhu still didn't know how to answer such a sensitive topic.
But fortunately Liu Bei is a very careful person.
Seeing that Gongsun Zhu fell silent, he immediately changed the topic and continued to tease the fat boy he had just acquired.
Looking at the pink little guy, the smile on Liu Bei's face seemed to never stop.
Although Liu Bei has now developed the ability to hide his emotions and anger, he still showed a rare tenderness in front of his son.
Even Jian Yong, his friend and staff member, couldn't help teasing him at this time.
"Look at our Xuande's appearance. In the future... I'm afraid he will also be a loving father!"
"Hahahahahaha..."
Jian Yong is indeed very good at livening up the atmosphere. His unique voice and rather festive movements make everything he says and do full of joy, but it does not make people think that he is a frivolous person.
This may be why Liu Bei values him.
And with the presence of Jian Yong and this little guy, even Gongsun Zhu, who had just returned, quickly integrated into Liu Bei's small group.
And he got along with dozens of people around Liu Bei.
Gongsun Zhu himself looks quite majestic, and his appearance is completely different from Gongsun Zan.
Gongsun Zan is handsome and strong, and his whole person looks heroic.
And Gongsun Zhu is... a very old middle-aged man!
Even though everyone already knew that Gongsun Zhu was probably the youngest among them all, when they saw Gongsun Zhu, they would inevitably have the illusion that they were meeting an elder in the family.
Especially Mrs. Liu Bei who met Gongsun Zhu for the first time. She almost gave him a junior salute, which made Liu Bei helpless and pulled Gongsun Zhu away.
But fortunately, Gongsun Zhu has really seen something in these years. The fighting in Bingzhou is not only spread in Bingzhou, but also in Youzhou, which is next to Bingzhou.
Moreover, there are many generous and tragic people in Yanzhao, and they are particularly concerned about this kind of thing.
When Gongsun Zhu slowly spoke about the wars and the past in the past few years under the gaze of everyone, the hall fell into silence for a long time.
Tens of thousands were the lives of more than 100,000 elite Han soldiers, and in exchange they could barely save Yanmen, the last pass.
The nine counties of Bingzhou were reduced to an existence like the back garden of Xianbei, which made these heroes of Youzhou couldn't help but remain silent, not knowing what to say.
After the silence, there was another unavoidable and unrestrained banquet.
It was said to be a banquet, but in reality it was just drinking. Simply drinking, even the simplest and inferior wine, still made everyone drunk and collapsed on the spot.
From the very beginning, I congratulate Liu Bei on getting his son, and the Liu family finally has a family.
Slowly, he said that Youzhou is not peaceful now, and that a plague almost broke out in the village some time ago, but it was the Taoist priests of Taiping Dao who rescued them.
At the end of the drink, we talked about Bingzhou's embarrassment and the future of the big man.
Then they patted their chests one by one and told everyone that when they become successful in the future, they must kill all Xianbei and repay the humiliation suffered by the big man a hundred times...
Gongsun Zhu didn't say much about these words, and he didn't even participate in them. When someone came over with a wine bottle, he drank it without hesitation.
Drinking it again and again, as if he had swallowed all the grievances and helplessness he had experienced over the years into his stomach.
It wasn't until his stomach burned like a fire, and until he himself died of drunkenness on the spot, that he reluctantly gave up on the banquet.
Gongsun Zhu had no way of knowing who cleaned up the scene in the end. He only knew that he woke up in a simple room he had never seen before, and then looked at the steaming porridge beside him, as well as the brand-new clothes, and his face A wry smile appeared.
"It's really... it's really rude."
When he saw Liu Bei again, he had packed his luggage and seemed to be planning to go out again.
After listening to Gongsun Zhu's words, Liu Bei also laughed directly, but he didn't say anything to him. Instead, he pulled him and walked directly out of the village.
"Xianhe and the others have already left. I have some things to do at Yide's house so I'll go back first. Yunchang is looking at the house and I'll wait until I can go to Zhuoxian..."
"Going to Zhuoxian County?" Gongsun Zhu couldn't help but frown after hearing this, and then quickly relaxed again, "Yes, I should go visit my uncle."
"Hahahaha...Bogui has missed you for a long time, but you know that Bogui can't save face.
so...."
"Brother Xuande, you don't need to say anything. I know my uncle's character. If you have any ideas, go ahead."
Gongsun Zhu didn't say anything more, and the three of them didn't seem to need to say anything else, so they just walked hand in hand towards Zhuoxian County.
In the county government office of Zhuo County, Gongsun Zan frowned and looked at the complicated official documents in front of him, fully expressing the phrase "one head and two big ones" just right.
Even after following two generations of famous teachers, Gongsun Zan was quite helpless when it came to government affairs.
But fortunately, he was about to ask for these things, and the court had issued an order some time ago.
It is necessary to recruit brave warriors from Youzhou and 3,000 elite cavalry to go to the two states of Yongliang in the northwest to deal with the sudden rebellion of Bianzhang and Han Sui!
Gongsun Zan was also known by the court because of his mentor Liu Kuan and his previous impressive record as the governor of the Liaodong vassal state, and he was also included in the recruitment.
At the same time, he also served as the commander-in-chief and commanded these three thousand cavalry. If he did well, Gongsun Zan could be said to have reached the sky in one step.
Gongsun Zan had already made preparations for this, and had contacted Jizhong to ask them to prepare sufficient food and grass just in case, and to ensure the speed of the march.
The reason why Gongsun Zan is still facing these official documents in front of him instead of directly entering the army has only one purpose.
"County Lord, there are two people outside the mansion who came to see you.
One of them is Liu Xuande, a good friend of the county king, and there is a middle-aged man, who is said to be..."
"That's the eldest nephew of this county, what a middle-aged man!" After hearing this, Gongsun Zan jumped up from his seat, laughing and walking out.
He couldn't help but angrily scolded the proficient yamen servant.
"Also, in the future he will be the commander-in-chief of the county army, so you should respect him more.
Otherwise, this county will not spare you! "
