Kong Ming was stunned when he heard this, he was surprised, he never expected that this Yang Dashan person in front of him would be so bold, so enthusiastic when they met for the first time, and after a few words, he directly called him brother and brother. This situation surprised him deeply and unexpectedly, so that Mr. Kong Ming, who has always been very serious, did not know what to do at the moment.

Wine to celebrities, this chew is indeed very loud, it is indeed unique, quite novel. This made Kong Ming very curious when he heard about it, so he happily walked into the wine shop and waved a song, the purpose of which was to meet this Yang Dashan man with extraordinary means.

In his expectation, Yang Dashan of Shili Xiang Wine Shop must be an official eunuch, or a wealthy businessman, but he is also a person who prefers poetry, and he does not hesitate to give away a lot of money in order to collect high-quality poetry. In these troubled times, this kind of person is really a little different, unconventional, and regards money as dung, which is an interesting person in troubled times.

Because of this, Kong Ming can be said to have come here to see who this outstanding good man is, and he is so generous. However, he never thought of making friends with such a wealthy person, even if he was not a businessman, but an official eunuch, he was not willing to make friends lightly, let alone make a deep friendship with him, calling him a brother and a brother.

To date, Kong Ming has few real friends. This is not because he is withdrawn, but because he has a very high vision, and ordinary scribes do not look down on him at all, only famous or hermit who is truly knowledgeable and can increase his knowledge, or like-minded scribes who have a common language. He is willing to have a deep friendship with him, and no one else is allowed to talk about it. This may be the so-called gathering people by like, and people with different identities and statuses have their own circle of friends. Others have a hard time getting into their circles.

As for the way of interacting with brothers, it is indeed a little unfamiliar to Kong Ming. Although he often calls someone "brother, brother", this is only a courtesy title, and although there is only a one-word difference between the true meaning of brother, it is a millimeter of difference and completely inconsequential.

At this moment, facing Yang Lin, who has a frank expression and a generous fist. Kong Ming was really stumped.

After looking carefully, he saw that Yang Lin was more than nine feet tall and had a strong body. There seems to be a hidden power in the body; If it weren't for the fact that he was dressed in a brocade robe and had extraordinary weapons, Kong Ming would have almost mistaken him for a martial artist with unique skills, no, to be precise, he should be a military general. The expression is resolute. There is also a faint murderous aura.

He was about twenty-three or fourteen years old, with a handsome appearance, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and a deep and sharp gaze, giving people a sense of unfathomability. The complexion is ruddy, the wheels are distinct, the black beard is splayed, and the corners of the mouth are always slightly upturned with a mature, steady, strong and confident smile. is very masculine and charming, and must be very feminine. And it's also a beautiful woman with excellent appearance.

But these are not the focus of Kong Ming's attention, the most surprising or different thing for him is that Yang Lin's demeanor is bold and atmospheric, and he has a special aura that makes people unspeakable, which invisibly gives people a good impression, like a spring breeze. People unconsciously feel close to him, and they can clearly feel his sincerity at all times, making it easy for people to trust him and not be wary.

In addition, standing in front of Yang Lin, Kong Ming inexplicably felt a special pressure. Yes, it's not repression, but real pressure, as if you are in a special aura, and your mind is completely controlled by Yang Lin. In every gesture, Yang Linzhou's body seemed to contain infinite power, prompting Kong Ming's thoughts to involuntarily turn with his every move.

This is the special aura of the superior person, and it is also the unique coercion of the superior person. Kong Ming had felt the aura of some superiors in his uncle, but it was extremely weak, almost imperceptible; If it weren't for his thoughtfulness and subtlety, he would hardly have felt it. But standing in front of Yang Lin at this moment, he didn't need to deliberately feel at all, he could personally feel the domineering coercion on Yang Lin's body, and every word and deed could restrain the mental thinking of the person who was talking to him, almost losing the ability to think for himself, and he had no second thoughts at all, and followed his train of thought wholeheartedly.

This kind of subtle feeling of mystery and mystery cannot be felt by ordinary people at all, or it is impossible to perceive it. Only a truly resilient, thoughtful, and observant person can sense anomalies and make their own judgments. It goes without saying that Kong Ming is undoubtedly a wise man with a meticulous heart, extremely good at discovering some imperceptible details, seeing the subtle things, and then making the most accurate judgments.

"Yang Lin is not a businessman, nor an official eunuch, but a superior with authority!" This was the conclusion that Kong Ming came to after carefully observing Yang Lin, and even he guessed that Yang Lin might be the overlord himself, otherwise it would be impossible for ordinary county guards or generals to have such a powerful aura and coercion. However, at the moment, the princes from all walks of life gathered in Wancheng, and at this moment, they were greeting in front of the county guard's mansion opposite the attic, and all seven princes were present and none of them were absent, how could Yang Lin be the overlord of one side?

In addition to these seven princes, there are three princes and overlords in the world, one of them is Xiliang Li Li who is far away in Luoyang, the second is Gongsun Zan who is far away in Youzhou, and the third is Liu Zhang of Yizhou. It is impossible for these three princes to appear in Wancheng, one is too far away, and the other is that it is impossible for them to snatch the Son of Heaven and the hundred officials. Youzhou and Yizhou are located in a corner, the emperor is far away, he can call the shots, there is no direct threat to other princes, what is the use of snatching the Son of Heaven, it is equivalent to asking for trouble. And Xiliang Li Li is even more unlikely to rob the Son of Heaven and the hundred officials, if he insists on robbing, it is impossible for the Son of Heaven and the hundred officials to flee Chang'an, and they were intercepted by the Xiliang army halfway.

"Who is Yang Lin? Why did he stay here, and why did he offer a lot of money for good poetry? In an instant, Kong Ming's thoughts turned a thousand times, and finally all his thoughts were concentrated on these two questions, and he couldn't figure it out.

――――――――― small dividing line――――――――――――

After thinking a lot, it was difficult to resist the enthusiasm, Kong Ming hesitated for a while, and it was difficult to make a decision.

Seeing Kong Ming's embarrassed face, Yang Lin smiled heartily, patted him lightly on the shoulder, and said, "Brother Xian doesn't have to be embarrassed, this matter is not in a hurry." The foolish brother will have to spend a few days in the city. The virtuous brother may wish to consider it carefully and reply later. ”

Kong Ming's expression was relieved when he heard this, and he exhaled with relief. He bowed and waved his hand and said, "Brother is full of fists, which flatters the foolish brother. However, from a humble background, with no long skills, and a cloth coat, he did not dare to rashly make friends with his brother, for fear of damaging his brother's prestige. Thanks to my brother, I don't give up. The foolish brother has been doing nothing recently, and he is willing to accompany his brother to have a glimpse of the scenery of the imperial township. I don't know what my brother thinks? ”

As soon as these words came out, Guo Shiqi, who stood aside with a smile. A hint of regret appeared between his eyebrows, as if to imply that Kong Ming had missed a great opportunity. After listening to Kong Ming's words, a gleam flashed in his eyes, revealing his approval. But the expression on his face was still smiling and silent.

Maybe it sounds to Kong Ming. Yang Lin's words just now were indeed a bit presumptuous, and they were too profound, which was too Meng Lang; But in Guo Shiqi's ears, it was not obtrusive at all, but he looked at Kong Ming again and put him in an equal position with himself. The lord of his own family has the ability to recognize people, discern talents, and know people well, and this section has long been recognized by the princes of various towns. The art of matching people is famous. And there are only two people who can be recognized as brothers by their own masters. It can be described as Wen Taowu's strategy, which is amazing.

Therefore, when Yang Lin took the initiative to recognize Kong Ming as his brother, Guo Shiqi was shocked, and instantly put Kong Ming in a very high position, even above himself. It's a pity that Kong Ming is young after all, and he doesn't know what kind of prominent identity and status this brother represents, let alone what it means to be so valued by Yang Lin. At the same time, it is even more impossible for him to know that if he misses such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, it is very likely that he will die because of it, and the teenager will die young.

If they met five years ago, maybe Yang Lin would still love and cherish his talents, leaving room for him to use them for his own use when the time is ripe. However, now it is not what it used to be, and now Yang Lin's subordinates and military generals are gathered, and their wings are full, and they are more and more decisive in their actions, and they are resolute in killing; A young talent like Kong Ming, if he can't take it for his own use, he will be ruthlessly wiped out and will never suffer in the future.

Just when Guo Shiqi was thinking about it secretly, Yang Lin opened his eyes and smiled: "What the virtuous brother said is very good, the foolish brother is trying to have a long talk with the virtuous brother." In recent years, it is rare to meet such an amazing young talent as Brother Xian, and it is even fate, how can you miss it lightly? Hehehe! ”

"Brother has won the prize." Kong Ming smiled humbly: "The elder brother shows the demeanor of a king in his gestures, and he is arrogant, and it is a blessing in life for the foolish brother to be appreciated by the elder brother." Listening to my brother's accent, I don't like a person from Nanyang, I take the liberty to ask for advice, I don't know where my brother's fairy town is? ”

"Immortal Township? Hehehe! Yang Lin was stunned when he heard this, and laughed loudly: "Virtuous brother, don't be so restrained, you can say anything directly, you don't have to be polite." Brother Yu is a Hongnong person, not long ago followed the Son of Heaven and Baiguan all the way south, from Luoyang to Wancheng, and now lives in this wine shop. Virtuous brother and look, the county guard mansion opposite can be said to be a gathering of princes at this time, the Son of Heaven and hundreds of officials gathered together, and the princes will be everywhere. The foolish brother was soft-spoken, and he couldn't enter the temple, so he had to join in the fun here, which made the virtuous brother laugh. ”

Hearing this, Kong Ming walked to Yang Lin's side, stood by the window with Yang Lin and Guo Shiqi, and looked at the hundreds of civil and military generals standing on the stone steps of the lobby of the county guard mansion opposite, and it seemed that there was a discussion in the hall. He chuckled, "Brother is too humble. From the foolish brother's point of view, the elder brother has a burly appearance and extraordinary instruments, and compared with the seven princes in the hall, he is not inferior, or even surpassed, and must not be presumptuous. Today, Liu Jingzhou led the army to come, and the princes of the Central Plains gathered in Wancheng, expecting that there would be a battle or a big melee next. ”

"Oh?" Yang Lin groaned and said with a smile: "How can you see it? The foolish brother is very puzzled, and the virtuous brother might as well speak up. ”

Kong Ming bowed his head and said: "Nowadays, the princes of all towns think that the Son of Heaven and the hundred officials are strange goods, and they are eager to try, trying to follow the example of Xiliang Li Li to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, so they gather here. However, in my opinion, this is not the case. The return of the Son of Heaven and the hundred officials to the east this time is quite strange, and there are many incomprehensible points, which are extremely suspicious. Therefore, at present, the Son of Heaven is not only not a strange commodity to live in, but is secretly dangerous and murderous; Once the princes of which way snatches the Son of Heaven and the hundred officials, the consequences will definitely be more auspicious and unimaginable. ”

Yang Lin nodded thoughtfully: "What the virtuous brother said is not unreasonable. It's just that 、、、 the return of the Son of Heaven to the east is a blessing for my great man, why does the virtuous brother say that the killing machine is everywhere? For the brother to be stupid, please also ask the virtuous brother to explain the reason. ”

Kong Ming smiled indifferently and said without thinking: "Just imagine, Li Wenchang has more than 500,000 troops, a leader of the group, and he is the leader, so he can take advantage of the victory to pursue and recover the entire territory of Sili in one fell swoop; If this can be done, the Son of Heaven and the hundred officials will have nowhere to escape. However, after Sili's victory, the Xiliang army stopped and deliberately left the land of Luoyang and Henan counties to fall on deaf ears. On the surface, Li Li was well versed in the way of advance and retreat, leaving Luoyang and Henan County as a buffer place, so as to eliminate the panic and vigilance of the Central Plains princes; In fact, Li Wenchang is by no means as simple as they imagined.

Sure enough, this time the Son of Heaven and the hundred officials returned to the east, and the eastern capital Luoyang became the key, becoming the belief sustenance of the Son of Heaven and the hundred officials, supporting them to return to the eastern capital after hardships. Looking at the journey of the Son of Heaven and his entourage returning to the east, it is not so much that they returned from fleeing after nine deaths, but that they were deliberately put back by Li Wenchang. Combined with the previous fact that Luoyang and Henan County became borderless, it is not difficult to see that the whole thing is under Li Wenchang's control, this is completely a conspiracy, and the plot is huge, and the result is very likely to sweep away the Central Plains in one fell swoop and completely destroy the Han Dynasty! ”
