Chapter 1001: Liu Biao's Choice
The Zhang family was originally a Gaoping family, not as good as the Wang family and the Liu family, but it can be regarded as a strong party, with some financial resources and a prosperous people. But the Zhang family is not a family, known as the descendants of Zhang Er, in fact, there are very few officials, Zhang Jian's father has worked hard all his life, and he has only served as a Jiangxia Taishou, which can be regarded as hitting the threshold of 2,000 stones.
can't be an official, and the influence of the Zhang family is limited to the local area. The Zhang family is not like the Wang family, and it does not have the clan identity of the Liu family, so if you want to get ahead, you can only go off the rails. Zhang Jian killed more than 100 members of Hou Lan's family, not entirely because of how hateful Hou Lan's family was, but because Hou Lan's reputation was big enough and powerful enough, many people wanted to kill but didn't dare, but Zhang Jian, a stunned young man, rushed up. In fact, he was not young at that time, he was already over half a hundred years old. may feel that time is running out, so he is very ruthless, not doing anything, and killing more than 100 people, including Hou Lan's mother.
But it turned out that Zhang Jian was still too tender. His impulsiveness not only failed to bring the Zhang family the opportunity to leap into the dragon gate, but brought disaster to the Zhang family, and also brought a devastating blow to the entire scholar class. The Zhang family was also devastated, with more than half of the huge family dead, and only some minor children survived. Zhang Bao and Zhang Ai brothers are survivors.
In the first year of Zhongping, the Yellow Turban was in turmoil, and the imperial court had no choice but to lift the party, and the party returned to power, giving the Zhang family a comfort, and appointed Zhang Bao as the post supervisor in the eastern part of the county, that is, Zhang Jian was an official in that year. But the loss of the Zhang family was too great, Zhang Bao was eager to revive the family style, and the appearance was too ugly, and he committed a taboo in officialdom. It just so happened that Manzhong also rectified Haoqiang, touching the interests of some people, and as a result, there were masters operating from it, Zhang Bao died inexplicably, and Manzhong also lost his official.
Now the old Zhang family - Zhang Jian is eighty years old, and the young - Zhang Ai and Zhang Yi have not yet reached the age of establishment, and they have no heirs, Zhang Ai has a daughter, and Zhang Yi has not yet married. If the full favor catches them all, the Zhang family is likely to be extinct.
In the face of this crisis, even if Zhang Jian is eighty years old and a celebrity who has been famous for many years, he has to bow his head and beg for favor.
There was no expression on Man's face. He had Zhang Ai and Zhang Zhi confiscated, tied them up, and escorted them back to the county court. swaggered all the way through the market, and most of the people in Gaoping City knew about it. Zhang Jian is a celebrity, the things of the year are known to the world, and the grievances between Zhang Bao and Manzhong are not a secret, at this moment, seeing Zhang Ai and Zhang Zhi fall into the hands of Manzhong, many people think that the Zhang family is over. If they are so spoiled that their family is ruined, they will not let go.
Full Pet took this opportunity to issue an order, during the extraordinary period, all families can protect their homes, and armed gatherings are not allowed, and it is illegal for more than three people.
There is the example of the Zhang family in the front, no one dares to provoke the full favor, and most of those who want to respond to Yuan Tan give up their actions and stay at home.
——
Liu Biao leaned on a table and sat in the hall, holding a roll of bamboo slips in his hand but did not look at it, his gaze crossed the wall and looked at the gloomy sky, his eyes shrunk and flashed with incomprehensible light.
The eldest son, Liu Qi, stood aside. He looks like Liu Biao, with a slender figure and clear eyebrows. For a long time, he was the only son of Liu Biao and was pinned on by Liu Biao. This time, Liu Biao abandoned the official and returned to the field, and their father and son were even more inseparable, preaching the scriptures and studying the classics every day. It's just that the situation has changed in the past two days, and Liu Biao is a little absent-minded and often distracted.
Liu Qi was very sensible, and stood aside obediently, without making a sound.
Hurried footsteps sounded outside the door, and two tall and sturdy figures walked in side by side, one was Liu Hu and the other was Liu Pan, both of whom were Liu Biao's subordinates and Liu Qi's subordinates. Unlike Liu Qi, they are not good at reading and prefer martial arts.
"Uncle." The two walked up to Liu Mian and bowed.
"Well, how's it going out there?" Liu Biao came back to his senses, moved his body, and motioned for Liu Hu and Liu Pan to sit.
Liu Qi immediately took the table and asked them to take a seat. Liu Pan sat down, put his hands on his knees, and said respectfully: "Uncle, Manzhong arrested Zhang Ai and Zhang Zhi and locked them in the county prison, and many people went to plead, but he didn't see any of them. The city gates are all under martial law, and I heard that several Jinkou in the territory are also under martial law, and those Jiangdong'er he brought are responsible, and the local officials in Gaoping are not allowed to interfere. ”
Liu Biao chuckled lightly and looked at Liu Hu and Liu Pan. "Did you see those Jiang Dong'er?"
"See."
"How does it compare to what you're training for?"
Liu Hu and Liu Pan glanced at each other, a little twisted. They are all martial arts people, they are bent on making meritorious contributions, and they wanted to vote for Yuan Tan several times, but they were stopped by Liu Biao. When Liu Biao came back this time, they wanted to go again, and they always felt that such a big battle was just around the corner, and it was a pity not to participate, and if they missed the opportunity, it would be difficult to get ahead in the future.
Liu Biao was noncommittal, they were anxious, but they couldn't figure out Liu Biao's intentions.
This time, he took office with full favor and brought five hundred pro-soldiers, a Wuhui accent. Although these Jiangdong'er are not tall compared to the locals of Gaoping, they are athletic and disciplined, and they are elite at first glance, and they are by no means comparable to ordinary parts. After a little inquiry, I learned that this was Sun Ce's personal guard, the real Jiangdong athlete. In the past two days, they have watched these Jiangdong'er law enforcement several times, and they have cleanly and neatly leveled a few groups of rangers who violated the order, and they were impressed by the combat effectiveness they showed, and they knew the reason why Liu Biao did not let them vote for Yuan Tan.
A few people can do this, what is the concept of tens of thousands of people? If you encounter this Jiangdong athlete in your own family, there is almost no possibility of winning, and you can only be cut down by others as pigs and sheep.
"Sun Bofu is good at training, the combat power of the soldiers under his command is amazing, and he has a talent for soldiers, Yuan Xiansi is probably not his opponent." Liu Biao put down the book and said faintly: "Do you think that Yuan Xiansi and Sun Bofu were really indistinguishable from each other the year before last? That was Sun Bofu saving face for Yuan Xiansi. ”
"Will Sun Bofu save face for Yuan Xiansi?"
"Can't think of it, right?" Liu Biao smiled slightly: "Don't forget, I am the first opponent of Sun Bofu's debut, and I know best how I came out of Xiangyang City." Although Sun Bofu is young and does not study, he is a measured person. He will not be ruthless unless he has to. The meaning of sending Man Boning to Gaoping this time is already very clear, if we do not act rashly and become enemies of him, he will not tear his face. But if we support Yuan Tan, then Man Boning is the knife in his hand, and none of us can escape. ”
Brother Liu Hu looked at each other, and after a while, Liu Pan said, "Then let's just look at it like this?" If the Yuan family wins the world......"
"Whether the Yuan family can win the world is still between the two, even if the Yuan family wins the world, it will not fall on Yuan Xiansi's head." Liu Biao picked up the book and glanced at Brother Liu Hu meaningfully. "Go back and thank you behind closed doors, study and practice martial arts, you can't run away from your chance, don't force your chance, otherwise the blessing and misfortune will be unpredictable."
"Whoa." Brother Liu Hu bowed down to receive the order.
