The child was lifted into the air from behind by Ju Xian. He didn't think about it but was not afraid at all. Instead, he yelled at Ju Xian.
"Old man, put me down!"
"Come here, officials, someone wants to rob!"
Soon, the group of soldiers in crimson clothes rushed over.
At this time, Ju Xian realized that the children who were selling obscene books were actually child workers at the Donglai County bookstore. They had received permission from the city officials to sell them here. Now Ju Xian's crime of beating people and destroying things had been dismissed by these people. * was slapped on the head.
"You, you look so gentle, you actually did such a bad thing as robbing the secret plot!"
After that, a group of soldiers came forward to capture Ju Xian.
Ju Xian's eyes widened in anger, and he tightened his fists to protect his side, not intending to be easily humiliated in the hands of these despicable soldiers.
At this moment, a shout came from the crowd watching.
"stop!"
A middle-aged man with a short beard and a brocade robe walked over.
The leading city soldier obviously recognized this person and stopped what he was doing.
"It turns out to be Chen Liulang. Do you know this person?"
At this time, Ju Xian also recognized the person who came. It was Chen Kui, his former friend in the county. He was ranked sixth among the Chen family in Donglai County and was also a talented person in the county when he was young.
"Of course I know. This is the official official of the imperial court and the father of Ju Peng, who is in charge of affairs in the county. How could he be a bad person!"
Although the leading pawn didn't understand what kind of official the bus order was, he knew that Ju Xian was the father of Ju Peng, who was in charge of the county, and he also paid compensation for the loss, so he gave up.
Chen Kui and Ju Xian had not seen each other for several years, but now they were very happy. Chen Kui led Ju Xian to a nearby restaurant to sit down for a while.
The two chatted for a while, and when Chen Kui learned about the reason for the conflict between Ju Xian, he looked unconcerned.
Chen Kui immediately said that there is now a bookstore opened in Zhongxin, Donglai County. This is a business that is rare even in Luoyang. Not only are the books in it cheap, but the paper is white and wide, and the fonts are clear. All classics and history collections can be found in it. Not only these saints' words, but also the Secret Spring Pictures loved by lowly common people are printed and sold. This is already known to everyone in Donglai County.
"Ju Gongzhi, are you going to have a conflict with the pawn just because of this?"
"It's a trivial matter, how can it be a trivial matter? To do something so despicable is to slander the emperor's clan and slander the emperor's prestige. This is heart-breaking!"
The table that Ju Xian slapped with his hand made a clanging sound. This was not a simple picture of a virgin in secret play, but someone wanted to use this to tarnish the emperor's image.
As for who this person is, it is simply Sima Zhao's heart, er, Emperor Wen's heart, and everyone knows it...
"Hey, now that Brother Gongzhi knows it, what can you do? What can you do to them?"
"this,,,"
Chen Kui's words left Ju Xian speechless.
Yes, this is on the territory of the Donglai Army, so what can I do to them?
Liu Yu, the Taoist thief of Donglai Heavenly Master, and his immediate boss Gou Xi were just at war with each other.
If I retaliate to the emperor and the King of Donghai for these filthy things that slander the Sima clan, I am afraid that given the magnanimity of the Sima family, I will be the first to be unlucky. Sometimes people who catch an adulterer are more hated than those who have an affair.
"Brother Gongzhi, do you think Liu Yu is treasonous and uses these despicable things to humiliate the clan and is not like a good minister, but you don't know that in the eyes of some people, you would like him to replace Gou Xi?" Chen Kui was a little mysterious. said.
"Ah, who do you mean?"
"Qi Di's powerful people, don't you know that Qi Di's powerful people planned the incident where Gou Xi was injured in a surprise attack?"
"What? Wasn't Gou Xi injured by a secret attack sent by Liu Yu?"
"It's obvious that Qi Di's strong man holds a grudge against Gou Xi and wants to kill him."
Ju Xian basically understood why these powerful people in Qi hated Gou Xi so much. It was not because Gou Daojiang killed people every day in Linzi, or because he came from a poor family, but because Gou Xi wanted to track down the powerful Yinhu and Zhan Tian in Qi. We must snatch away the fat meat that they sneak into their mouths and use it to nourish and strengthen the army.
As for this matter, no one in Luoyang knew anything about it. It could even be said that Gou Xi had evil intentions and was getting stronger and stronger in the name of suppressing bandits.
Ju Xian knew that Sima Yue, the King of East China Sea, was very afraid of Gou Xi. He was afraid that one day Gou Xi would lead an army into Luoyang, which would repeat the story of Dong Zhuo's entry into Beijing. But even so, what could the King of East China Sea do? The Yanzhou refugee rebellion and the Wang Mili bandits were all threatening Luoyang, so why not rely on Gou Xi? What could he do to him?
Therefore, even if these powerful people from all over the country were pinned to the ground and cut off by Gou Xi, the Luoyang court would not even blink an eye. After all, the safety of Luoyang's periphery still depends on Gou Xi!
"I heard that Qi's powerful people sent people to invite Liu Yu a few days ago and asked him to send troops to attack Gou Xi." Chen Kui said.
Ju Xian sneered at this. It seemed that these powerful people from Qi were really beaten by Gou Xi. Gou Xi's retreat before was just due to a sneak attack by a powerful force.
"Hmph, if Liu Yu had the guts to fight Gou Xi, I'm afraid he would be like Liu Bogen, never to return."
Then the two of them chatted while drinking, and started talking about ordinary things they saw and heard. After waiting for a while, Chen Kui invited Ju Xian to continue to his home.
When the two of them walked out of the market and were still thinking of asking the boys around them to buy some food, a man on a horse came from the west. The rider did not slow down at all along the way, scaring the people on both sides of the street and running away.
The man who came galloping was a horse-detecting messenger from the Donglai Army. He quickly rushed to Liu Yu's office and handed an urgent secret report into Liu Yu's hands.
Liu Yu opened the secret letter and read it carefully in front of his subordinates.
Unexpectedly, after just watching for a while, Liu Yu's face was already red, and he was so full of anger that he seemed to choose someone to devour.
When Dong Ping, Gongsun Sheng and other generals saw this, they all looked at each other in shock and did not dare to ask rashly what happened.
