"The sky and the earth are dark and yellow, the universe is vast, the sun and the moon are waxing and waning, and the stars and stars are spread out."
"Cold comes and summer comes, harvest is harvested in autumn and stored in winter. There are leap years left, and the law Lu regulates the sun."
Before Gongsun Yan entered the closet, he heard the crisp sound of children reading aloud.
It's Gongsun Cheng.
Gongsun Yan paused in his steps.
Only then did he realize to his chagrin that he was so immersed in his own thoughts that he had forgotten about Gongsun Cheng.
Gongsun Cheng was placed in the left wing of her courtyard. It was so late that he must have already gotten up, but she actually forgot to pay attention to his movements.
With some guilt in his heart, Gongsun Yan walked into the meeting room.
Gongsun Cheng sat obediently next to Zhao Yun, holding the hem of Zhao Yun's clothes with one hand.
Sitting around were Tian Kai, Xia Houlan, Zhou Xing and others, all listening to Gongsun Cheng's endorsement attentively.
They were fighting like this, which obviously put a lot of pressure on Gongsun Cheng. If Zhao Yun hadn't been by his side, he would have burst into tears.
Hearing the sound at the door, everyone looked up and saw Gongsun Yan, and stood up to salute.
Gongsun Cheng even trotted over as if he had been saved and hugged his sister's leg.
Uncles and brothers who want to listen to endorsements are scary.
"A Cheng is so amazing, I have memorized most of it."
Gongsun Yan already felt guilty, so his voice became a little softer at this time, he gently touched the small bun on his head, and then bent down to pick him up.
"Uncle Tian."
"Zilong, Zixiu, and Guanshi Zhou."
"Don't be too polite, just sit down wherever you want."
"Manager Zhou, where are the tall tables and chairs that were made by the carpenter in the village?" Gongsun Yan looked around and saw that there were tables in the mezzanine, so he asked.
Zhou Xing said respectfully: "It has been built and we will order people to move it in later."
"good!"
Gongsun Yan then looked at everyone in the room.
Zhao Yun and Xia Houlan, the young warriors, could hardly tell that they were very tired.
On the other hand, Tian Kai and Zhou Xing were older and looked a little bad.
Tian Kai was seriously injured just a month ago. Although Gongsun Yan continued to take blood-tonifying medicine and protein powder, and when conditions allowed, he paid more attention to strengthening his diet and recuperation when conditions allowed, but a serious injury like a broken arm could not be cured in ten days and a half.
Can be raised well.
Last night he led Zhang Ze's troops to guard the main house, and at the same time worked with the steward Zhou Xing to control everything.
After working hard all night, Tian Kai saw that his beard had grown a lot and his complexion turned dark.
Zhou Xingze does not have a strong body like a martial artist, and he has recently been working hard to deal with all the matters in the manor. He stayed up all night last night, and his whole body seemed to be in a state of depression.
"Thank you for your hard work last night." Gongsun Yan looked at them all exhausted and felt a little distressed. He decided to let them go down to rest and talk about it tomorrow. The first one to object was Tian Kai.
"Little lady, don't worry. When we are marching and fighting, we are more tired than when we are tired. This is nothing to worry about." Tian Kai waved his hand, "We can talk about rest later."
"The most important thing now is to deal with these rebellious people first."
In the early morning, Zhao Yun completely suppressed the rebellion of tribes at the Xishan camp.
Although they first captured leader Deng alive, they later blocked leader Deng's son on the mountain road.
However, these two people are just vicious dogs driven by humans and are not important people.
On the contrary, Xia Houlan, who had set up an ambush on the mountain road, actually captured several people from the imperial clan among the remaining survivors.
Sima Chen, who was seriously injured, was revealed by his subordinates to be the leader of Gongsun Xuan's bodyguard.
Then there is the kerosene on the horse's back, and the evil purpose is clearly revealed.
"I will hurry up and send these evil thieves to Lingzhi." When Tian Kai mentioned this, he couldn't help but get angry.
On the surface, they instigated Bu Qu to cause trouble, and asked the evil Ni Bu Qu to force them with swords and drive the bankers to attack the main house.
Secretly, take a hidden path and carry kerosene directly towards the main house.
Tian Kai is a veteran of the Northland. He has personally experienced the Yellow Turban Rebellion.
He had seen with his own eyes what a ferocious wolf the Li Shu, who used to be as docile as a lamb, transformed into a ferocious wolf overnight after being coerced and given a sword.
Seamlessly transition from victim to perpetrator.
At that time, only bloody suppression can calm the situation, and Lone Bamboo Manor will lose a large number of people.
Even more so during the crackdown, the defense of the main house was empty, so it was impossible for them to succeed in their vicious plan of arson and murder.
If it weren't for the useless person sent to spy, Baima Yi Cong's Sentry Cavalry was the best among the best, and he noticed any traces and reported it to Zhao Yun.
Zhao Yun did not take it lightly. He followed the investigation and discovered this unfortunate incident. They would inevitably suffer a big loss on the first day they arrived at the manor.
The Gongsun siblings in the main house may also be in extremely dangerous situations.
Generally, manor houses are not as loosely controlled as Lone Bamboo Manor.
Only Lone Bamboo Manor can allow people to seize such an opportunity.
First it was Gongsun Jing, then Gongsun Xuan. With their vicious intentions and ruthless timing, these two brothers and sisters were really from the same family.
"It's a villain who is incompetent and has lax control." But it was Zhou Xing who came out to accuse him.
He is not a wealthy person to begin with. He is usually kind but lacks dignity. Although this kind of character can win the hearts of some people, it still lacks the power to intimidate ambitious people.
There was such a big problem in the manor, and as the chief steward of the manor, he did have some responsibilities.
However, Gongsun Yan did not intend to pursue him too closely. Instead, he comforted him a few words, then turned his attention to Tian Kai and advised: "Uncle Tian, don't get so angry."
"Young lady, let me go to Lingzhi. I want to ask the Gongsun family master how he controls his children!"
Among all the people present, only Tian Kai, the former governor of Qingzhou, could face the head of the Gongsun family with such force.
"Okay, Uncle Tian, why do you need to take action for such a trivial matter?" Gongsun Yan did not intend to trouble Tian Kai to go through such trouble.
So what if all the evidence is put in front of Gongsun Jing? Can the old man kill his relatives and behead Gongsun Xuan?
No, the most it can do is reprimand, grounding or the like.
The justice Gongsun Yan wanted was impossible to get from Gongsun Jing.
We cannot expect everyone to be selfless.
Since you don't get the desired results, you don't have to bother complaining and make yourself angry.
"Uncle Tian, even if we present the personal and physical evidence to my grandfather's desk, can he still kill Gongsun Xuan? Why not be considerate of his difficulties."
Gongsun Yan sat behind the desk and closed his eyes, "I just need grandpa to compensate for the loss for his daughter."
"This is a series of six hundred deaths in the village. Now the village's defense, Grandpa Kong, will make up for it for us. It makes sense, right?"
Six hundred deaths?
Gongsun Yan's words stunned several people.
After counting, it was found that only about 480 people were blocked by Zhao Yun in the Xishan camp this time.
Among them, 130 died and 30 were seriously injured. The remaining 300 people have all been captured and imprisoned. How can the number of 600 be obtained?
But they soon came to their senses.
"My lady remembered it wrong, it was one thousand." Tian Kai said firmly.
Gongsun's face showed some hesitation, "Is it too much?"
Six hundred is reasonable, but one thousand? There are only about 1,100 pieces in Lone Bamboo Manor.
"Don't worry, little lady, your grandpa can afford it."
The real loss is not important. As Gongsun Yan said, since they can't get the results they want, they should ask for something to compensate first.
"Then, this time, the mountains and houses were burned down with kerosene because of the gangsters' stubborn resistance?"
"Worth one hundred thousand gold!"
"The Yinhu in Zhuangzhong who was killed by these thugs?"
"There are as many as three hundred households."
In this way, Gongsun Yan and Tian Kai asked and answered questions and finalized the compensation they wanted to ask for.
