Chapter 267: Gongsun Kang's attitude changes greatly (first update)

Xiangping City, a mansion.

There was a young man waiting outside the mansion, with a somewhat similar appearance to Gongsun Kang, but his eyes were very narrow and long, and a cold light often flashed inside, looking like a cold and thin villain.

This is Gongsun Kang's second son, Gongsun Yuan.

"Why did my father treat a minister so politely?" After Gongsun Kang came out, Gongsun Yuan stepped forward and complained.

My face was a little puzzled and dissatisfied.

In Gongsun Yuan's opinion, it is really unwise for Gongsun Kang to ignore many major issues in Liaodong, but to join Yiji.

Gongsun Yuan was a man without virtue and talent. Gongsun Kang had never liked him. This time he brought him here just to let him pay tribute to Feng Yi, a famous scholar in Jingchu.

Unexpectedly, Gongsun Yuan thought that Gongsun Kang Lixian was a waste of time to recruit Yi Ji.

Gongsun Kang was displeased and scolded: "What do you know? Liaodong is the border, and his literary style is not strong, and the officials under the tent are all young talents. Now it is rare that Jing Chu Yiji comes here. How can he be humbly recruited without being polite?"

"But he is a minister who has a master." Gongsun Yuan retorted after hearing this.

"Cao Ren went south to fight against Jiangxia, and Liu Feng was not far from his destruction. Even if Yi Ji is now a minister with a lord, he will become a masterless soul in a few days." Gongsun Kang sneered when he heard this.

"Since that's the case, why didn't my father kill Yiji and embezzle his property?" Gongsun Yuan's eyes burst into greedy light and said.

"Mainland? Are you talking about the 30,000 stones of grain that Yiji claimed to be, three thousand gold?" Gongsun Kang couldn't help laughing and said, "The storm on the sea is too big, so how can this grain be reached?"

"Besides, in my father's opinion, Yiji is much more important than a mere 30,000 stone of grain." After a pause, Gongsun Kang said again.

However, although Gongsun Kang was teaching him repeatedly, Gongsun Yuan still looked disapproving. Seeing this, Gongsun Kang couldn't help but shake his head, and thought of handing over the position of Liaodong prefect to his younger brother Gongsun Gong.

Although the two of them have different behaviors and different behaviors, they still have basically the same vision, and they believe that Jiang Xia will definitely perish under Cao Ren's attack.

After stopping outside the mansion for a while, Gongsun Kang got on the carriage. At least, Gongsun Yuan returned to the prefect's mansion surrounded by guards.

In front of the prefect's mansion, a man with a face similar to Gongsun Kang but looked very weak was waiting, looking anxious.

This man is Gongsun Kang's younger brother Gongsun Gong.

Suddenly, Gongsun Gong saw Gongsun Yuan’s carriage coming here, his eyes lit up and he quickly walked up to him.

"Brother, Jingchu reported that it was Liu Feng who defeated Cao Ren and rushed into Wancheng for thousands of miles." Gongsun Gong shouted as he walked.

When he was talking, Gongsun Gong's face was no longer anxious, but more excited. Yes, it was excitement.

Cao ***'s strength is tantamount to the Gongsun clan in Liaodong, a big rock pressed on his chest. It can crush Gongsun clan at any time, but now someone can defeat Cao Ren and slap Cao ***.

How could Gongsun Gong not be excited?

"What?" Because of surprise, Gongsun Kang suddenly stood up in the carriage and screamed in shock.

How was Gongsun Kang not surprised? He had made great plans and thoughts, but no matter how he thought, he thought that Liu Feng could not beat Cao Ren. He either failed or completely retreated to the south of the Yangtze River.

I just didn't expect Cao Ren to fail.

A 25,000 elite army, how many Liu Feng's army is? The total amount is not enough for 20,000. There are still several counties that can be dispatched, and the troops can be dispatched are less than 10,000.

And most of them are miscellaneous troops, who can actually defeat Cao Ren? An elite army led by a famous general who has been famous for a long time.

Gongsun Kang never thought that such a thing would happen.

"What?" Gongsun Yuan was also surprised, and even more than his father. In a shock, his hands holding the horse reins were too hard, and the war horse was frightened.

People stand up.

With a "boom." Gongsun Yuan was completely knocked to the ground, and he was confused.

"Second Young Master, are you okay?" The guards exclaimed, got off their war horses and helped Gongsun Yuan up.

One of the father and son stood up openly in the carriage, and the other fell to the ground, which attracted the attention of passers-by.

Although the fall hurts very much, it is actually not very important. Gongsun Yuan quickly broke free from the guards who were supporting him and came to Gongsun Kang's carriage. He asked in a low voice: "Father, what should we do now?"

Although there was no panic, there was too much uncertainty in it.

Liu Feng defeated Cao Ren and became stronger. This actually had no major impact on the Gongsun family, after all, it was not directly bordered.

But the subtleties affect the overall situation.

Just now, Gongsun Yuan had the courage to rob Liu Feng of his food, gold and silver, so now he would not even give up any farts.

"Go back." Gongsun Kang said with a flash of eyes, and then he slowly sat down.

Gongsun Yuan understood what Gongsun Kang meant. Things that should have been unnecessary to discuss were now necessary. Liu Feng had already shown his strength.

A power that no one in the world can ignore.

Just when Gongsun Kang turned around and planned to return the mansion where Yiji was. Gongsun Gong suddenly remembered something, stepped forward, and whispered: "Brother, there are also officials who have heard from him that a man who claimed to be the marquis of Liu Feng's tent led thirty large ships to Xiping."

Xiping is located at the southernmost end of the Liaodong Peninsula, and is a large ferry. When Gongsun Du sent troops to attack Qingzhou, he set sail from this ferry.

"It's really here. Is this God's will?" Gongsun Kang's body shook and he said in disbelief.

With the navigation technology of this era, from south to north, or from north to south, you have to overcome unimaginable difficulties before you can reach your destination.

And Liu Feng sent his army to the first time and actually arrived. This can only be said of God's will.

Moreover, there will be a second time when there is a first time. Because navigation experience will increase. The functions of ships are still second, and the most important thing is navigation experience.

If Jiang Xia could really provide food, sufficient food and gold, he would give back to war horses and slaves. This is mutual benefit from both sides.

What a grand occasion.

Gongsun Kang was heartbroken.

Immediately, Gongsun Kang immediately waved his hand to send Gongsun Gong away, ordered the carriage to start and go to Yiji's mansion.

Soon, Gongsun Kang returned, which surprised the two gatekeepers in front of the door.

This time Yiji brought many people, including officials and servants. Although the mansion was given by Gongsun Kang, the servants guarding the gate were Yiji himself.

Just as the two servants were about to meet him, a guard was separated from Gongsun Kang's team, and he rode his horse to the door, turned over and dismounted, and raised his fists to the two servants and said, "God of Liaodong Prefect Gongsun is here, please inform me."

The two servants were even more surprised because, although Gongsun Kang respected Yiji for several days, he had never been so formal.

When I came here, I would first get started and then report. Now I am willing to wait outside the door and report first. This attitude is too bad.

Although the two little servants were surprised, they could not guess anything.

The two just bent over and clasped their fists at the guards, and then one of them went in to report.

In the study, Yi Ji had just had a headache and wanted to deal with the Liaodong affairs. When he heard the servant come in and report that Gongsun Kang was returning.

And, waiting outside the door.

While I was surprised, a sense of joy rose from Yiji's heart. Could it be that the news of the lord's victory in Jiangxia reached Liaodong?

As soon as this thought arose, it began to spread in Yiji's heart.

"Go out and welcome Lord Gongsun." Yi Ji suddenly stood up and left the study.

Not long after, he arrived at the gate. Yiji raised his head and saw Gongsun Kang, leading his second son Gongsun Yuan to wait outside the gate.

He couldn't help but take a few steps forward, clasped his fists and said, "Mr. Gongsun."

"Mr. Ji Bo." Gongsun Kang greeted him with a smile on his face.

Gongsun Kang's attitude widened Yi Ji's surprise a lot. In the past, Gongsun Kang was also very polite to him, but it was reserved and reserved as the lord of the country.

He only thought he was a talented person who came to his door and never regarded him as an envoy of a country.

And Gongsun Kang's current appearance is the real attitude towards an envoy of a powerful country.

This is the treatment that an envoy should have. Yiji couldn't help but straighten his back and felt very angry and raised his eyebrows.

If you are an envoy of a country, you go to another country to discuss major events with the kings of another country. However, the kings of another country are concerned about him and want to recruit you instead.

And now the motherland behind you is stronger and stronger, enough to make people look at you. The kings of other countries not only face you, but also treat you with a courtesy attitude of truly meeting the envoys.

What a pleasure this is.

"I wonder why Lord Taishou is coming back?" Although Yi Ji felt angry and raised his eyebrows, he still gave Gongsun Kang face on his face, and he said naturally.

"This place is not a place to speak." Gongsun Kang looked around and said softly.

"Prince Prefect, please." Yi Ji understood and bent over and led him to ask Gongsun Kang to enter the mansion.

Gongsun Kang nodded, turned around and signaled Gongsun Yuan to wait outside the door, and followed Yi Ji and walked in.

Soon, the two came to the study. After sitting down with each other, Gongsun Kang first raised his fist and said to Yiji: "Congratulations, sir, Jiangxia's victory, General Liu first defeated Cao Ren in Liucheng, and then attacked Wancheng with the momentum. The momentum was strong."

Although he had guessed the news and was mentally prepared. But when the news was truly confirmed, Yi Ji still couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Only when he was in a great victory in Jiangxia could he go to Liaodong to make a meaningful mission. Only when he was in a great victory in Jiangxia could he influence Liaodong and then use subtle small places to influence the world.

All this can only be carried out if the Jiangxia victory is on the top. Otherwise, how could Gongsun Kang agree to form an alliance?

He was overjoyed, but Yi Ji hid his face and calmly raised his fist to Gongsun Kang, "I wonder what Lord Taishou thinks now?"

Of course, Yiji implied to form an alliance. When he first met Gongsun Kang, Yiji proposed to form an alliance, but was slapped by Gongsun Kang. Obviously, he didn't believe that Liu Feng could defeat Cao Ren.

But now it's different.

"All alliance is an urgent matter." Gongsun Kang said decisively.
