How dare the servant not listen to what Wei Jie said. He quickly walked around with the token in front of Gu Yong and the others. The first one he looked at was Gu Yong. At first glance, Gu Yong seemed to have no feeling at all.
After the token was transferred to the other two people, a flash of light suddenly flashed in Gu Yong's mind. He seemed to have seen this token somewhere!
Immediately, Gu Yong shouted: "You, hurry up and bring the token over and let me see!"
"Uh!" Everyone and the servant couldn't help but be stunned. The servant turned back and glanced at Wei Jie. After Wei Jie nodded, he honestly sent the token to Gu Yong, but Gu Yong didn't.
Without saying a word, he just snatched the token from the servant! Seeing Gu Yong's actions, Yu Fan, who had warned Wei Jie before, quickly exclaimed: "Brother Gu! Be careful!"
However, Gu Yong couldn't listen to what others were saying at this moment. Instead, he grabbed the token and couldn't wait to read it. First he touched the tiger head on the token a few times with his hand, and then turned the token over.
I took a look and looked carefully. I saw that there was a pattern carved on the back of the token, which was the word "grandson" in ancient seal script! As soon as he saw this word, Gu Yong's expression couldn't help but change.
It's cloudy or sunny.
When Wei Teng, who was sitting next to Gu Yong, saw it, he couldn't help but ask: "Brother Gu! Have you ever seen this token before?"
Wei Teng's question can be said to have touched everyone's mind. Everyone, including Wei Jie, looked at Gu Yong with wide eyes, waiting for his answer. Gu Yong took a deep breath, but
Suddenly he showed a wry smile, nodded and said: "Not only do I recognize this token, but I also know who the owner of this token is!"
"Ah!" Although they had already guessed that Gu Yong would answer like this, when Gu Yong really said this, everyone couldn't help but exclaimed. Then Wei Jie quickly asked: "Master Gu, what exactly does this order mean?"
Who is the owner of the card and what is its origin?"
Gu Yong did not directly answer Wei Jie's question. Instead, he slowly raised the token and smiled bitterly to everyone present: "One side of the token is a tiger, and the other side is the character 'Sun'. Is it true?"
Didn’t you guys think of anyone?”
"Tiger? Sun?" Everyone lowered their heads and pondered for a moment. Suddenly, Lu Kang exclaimed and shouted with astonishment on his face: "Could it be Sun Jian?"
Sun Jian? Hearing Lu Kang call out this name, the Wei family father and son and Yu Fan also reacted at the same time. Indeed, with the name of Tiger and the surname of Sun, isn't there only one Sun Jian in the world! This token
Could it be Sun Jian's token? Everyone looked at Gu Yong suspiciously. After all, they had never seen Sun Jian use such a token before.
Gu Yong's expression eased slightly, but it was still a little ugly. Seeing everyone looking at him, Gu Yong nodded and said: "Actually, I saw this token once before. It's just that time has passed.
It's been too long, and I glanced at it hastily, so I didn't recognize it at first!" At this point, Gu Yong stopped talking. When everyone saw it, they knew it must be something that couldn't be told.
I won’t ask any more questions.
In fact, this matter cannot be regarded as a private matter. At that time, the young head of the Gu family, Gu Jian, fell in love with Miss Wu and sent someone to propose marriage to Miss Wu. However, he did not expect that Sun Jian would beat him to it. Later, Sun Jian also sent the betrothal gift.
The person threw it back, which was a big slap in the face of the Gu family! And what was sent back with the betrothal gift was a token that was exactly the same as the one Gu Yong was holding now! But this incident was a big scandal for the Gu family. Gu Yong
Naturally, I don't want to say it in front of the other three aristocratic families, but I am sure that this is Sun Jian's token!
Sun Jian! Hasn't this tiger been forced to go to Yangzhou? Some time ago, I heard that he captured Shouchun, the capital of Yangzhou. How can he be so good and send people to Kuaiji again? Do you know that door?
The person who was visiting turned out to be Sun Jian's people. Instead of suddenly realizing it, everyone fell into an even more confusing mystery.
However, Wei Jie did not forget that the person sent by Sun Jian was still standing outside the Wei Mansion. Wei Jie immediately waved his hand to the servant and said, "Go and invite that person over quickly! Attention.
, Don’t let others see it!” With Wei Jie’s words, the servant finally breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly ran down to carry out Wei Jie’s order.
Not long after, I saw the servant leading a man who didn't look very old to the door of the hall. Everyone in the hall also stopped their previous discussions and stared at him with five pairs of eyes.
Look at the young man! The young man didn't seem to feel any discomfort. He just smiled faintly. Without waiting for Wei Jie to say a word to invite him in, he walked into the hall with long strides. Seeing the young man's face,
All five people present couldn't help but frowned. This person was so rude!
But the young man seemed not to notice the gazes of everyone. With a smile on his face, he bowed his hands to Wei Jie who was sitting at the top and said, "Young man, pay homage to the Master of the Wei family!"
This young man was so ignorant of etiquette that Wei Jie's first impression of him was extremely bad. If it weren't for the fact that this young man's master was Sun Jian, Wei Jie would have had him kicked out long ago.
. He suppressed his anger and hummed: "Are you the envoy sent by Mr. Sun, the governor of Yangzhou?"
Sun Jian had already appointed himself the governor of Yangzhou years ago. This news was known to Wei Jie and others, so Wei Jie called Sun Jian that way. The young man also smiled and nodded and said: "You are indeed serving my lord, and you are."
It was Sun Shijun, the governor of Yangzhou, who ordered me to come to visit the head of the Wei family! Originally, I had to visit the other three aristocratic families, but since the representatives of the three major aristocratic families are here, it saves me the trouble!" After that, then
The young man glanced at Gu Yong and others sitting on both sides, and seemed to have recognized their identities.
When the young man said this, Wei Jie and others were not too surprised. After all, the other party was the tiger. If he didn't even have this ability, he wouldn't have made Jiangdong so uneasy in the first place! Wei Jie immediately ordered
He nodded and said, "I wonder what your lord, Shijun Sun, is doing here? Aren't you afraid that General Zhou, the prefect of Kuaiji, will capture you?"
"Haha!" The young man laughed a few times and said with a strange face: "The words of the Wei family leader made it difficult for the boy to understand! Sun Shijun is the governor of Yangzhou appointed by the imperial court! The same is true for Kuaiji County
It belongs to Yangzhou! I was entrusted by Sun Shijun to come to Kuaiji. It is reasonable and reasonable. Why should I be afraid of Zhou Tai?"
"Uh!" The other party's words not only left Wei Jie and others speechless, but also made everyone feel a little embarrassed. Jiangdong is indeed affiliated with Yangzhou, but over the years, Jiangdong has long been separated from Yangzhou's control.
The Jiangdong family is a self-contained entity. In the minds of everyone, Yangzhou is Yangzhou and Jiangdong is Jiangdong. They subconsciously think that they are two concepts. Now that the other party said this, everyone realized that Kuaiji is also under the jurisdiction of Yangzhou.
, the prefect of Kuaiji was naturally under the control of the governor of Yangzhou!
Seeing everyone's embarrassed look, the young man still smiled and said to Wei Jie: "I didn't expect that the first noble family in Jiangdong didn't even have the etiquette to entertain guests! I don't expect to be able to drink a cup of tea, kid.
After coming from a long distance, my legs are really tired, but I would like to have a seat. I wonder if the Master of the Wei family can grant this request?"
The young man's words made Wei Jie pause again, and he didn't know how to respond. From the moment the young man entered the hall, it seemed that the initiative had completely fallen into the hands of the other party, and almost all the five people present gave it to him.
The young man led them away by the nose, which even made them feel powerless. Old Wei Jie blushed, waved his hand, and shouted to the servant who was still standing stupidly at the door: "Idiot! I've blinded you."
"Why don't you hurry up and serve tea!" The servant was so frightened by Wei Jie's drink that his whole body trembled, and he nodded hurriedly and went down to prepare.
Soon, a few servants brought in cushions, coffee tables, and tea. The young man was not polite, he just took his seat, picked up the tea, and took a sip. He looked at the young man's actions.
, Lu Kang, who had been observing silently, suddenly his eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but admire in his heart. Although this young man seemed rude, his gestures showed everyone's demeanor. It seemed that he had received good etiquette training! This man,
Definitely not simple! This was Lu Kang's inner comment about this young man again.
After the young man drank tea and rested for a while, Wei Jie asked: "Does this gentleman have any position under Ambassador Sun?"
"Haha!" The young man slowly put down the teacup and said with a smile: "The boy is not talented. My lord has so many talents. A person like the boy can't even be ranked at the bottom! Fortunately, the lord appreciates him and appoints the boy.
It’s just a history of meritorious service!”
The history of meritorious service? The frowns of Wei Jie and others deepened. This position cannot be said to be very high, but it is not low either. From this position alone, it is impossible to tell what position this person holds under Sun Jian's account.
However, although everyone has doubts, this is the residence of the Wei family after all, so Wei Jie still has to ask: "I wonder what orders Sun Shijun sent you here this time?"
"Haha!" The young man laughed again and said: "My lord heard that Jingzhou Governor Luo Shijun came to Jiangdong not long ago, so he sent the boy here to ask! Originally, this matter is not the responsibility of people like the boy.
The only person who came here is that my lord knew that the boy and Luo Shijun had met several times, so he specially asked the boy to come!"
Hearing the last words of this young man, Lu Kang couldn't help but feel something in his heart, and without any hesitation, he hurriedly asked: "By the way, haven't you asked me your surname?"
The young man's eyes flashed with a strange light, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and he said lightly: "My surname is Kuai, my name is Yue, and I am from Xiangyang!"
