I will be the master of Xuande

Chapter 19 Trial of Xianbei

"Ah Jian, that green horse is extraordinary. It's a pity that my brother really has no money, so he has no chance with this good horse."

On the way to the county office, Liu Bei was still lamenting that he missed the good horse just now.

"If you have money, don't buy it. If you have 40 yuan, are you crazy? The horse I bought for [-] to [-] yuan can still be ridden."

"How can that kind of nasty horse be compared with Qing Yu? You really don't understand horses!"

"My lords, here we are.

While speaking, Yu Ze had already led the two people to the county office of Zhuo County. He didn't need to report, and directly led the two into the gate of the county office.

After passing the front yard, they came to the main hall of the county office. Gongsun Zan was waiting inside. When he saw the brothers of the Liu family, he greeted them with a smile.

"Hehe, why did the two virtuous brothers come so late?"

"Senior brother came to the humble house yesterday and presented you with an expensive gift. I was really terrified. Lord Yan's loving mother appointed me two to come to the county office today to return the heavy gift to my senior brother. Please don't back down. Liu Jiaxiao can't afford such kindness. "

Gongsun Zan showed an expression of extreme dissatisfaction: "It's a mere gift, one is to thank the two of you for your previous acts of righteousness, and the other is to express my respect for your father. How can I withdraw? No way! Take it back!"

Liu Jian thought to himself, until now, he is still pretending here... Don't say it, the pretending is really good.

"If the senior brother doesn't accept it, the younger brother has no face to live in Zhuo County, let alone face the senior brother, so please ask the senior brother to issue a talisman, and let the younger brother go across the state."

After Gongsun Zan heard this, his expression was very troubled.

"You... well, what's the point of talking about you, that's all! Since my virtuous brother is talking about this, then I can only reluctantly do what I can."

After finishing speaking, Gongsun Zan looked at Yu Ze: "You take Brother Xuande to the side hall to make tea and have a rest first, and then put the things into storage. Brother Deran and I have some small matters to discuss."

After finishing speaking, Gongsun Zan looked at Liu Bei again: "Don't blame Xuande, this matter is a secret, so it is inconvenient to spread it more."

Seeing that Gongsun Zan wanted to find Liu Jian alone, Liu Bei felt a little puzzled, but he couldn't hold back.

He glanced at Liu Jian, only to see Liu Jian nodded to him slightly, telling him that it was okay.

Liu Bei obeyed Liu Jian's order, so he went to wait elsewhere with Yu Ze.

After Liu Bei left, Gongsun Zan said with emotion: "You two brothers are of the same heart, and you know each other well. In all honesty, you two, one master and the other subordinate, complement each other well...but apart from this brother, what else do you need? Just get some helpers."

"helper?"

"Of course, isn't Xuande your arm?"

Liu Jian was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself... Since when, in the eyes of outsiders, Liu Bei has become my arm?

"I have ordered someone to bring that Hu man here, and you can interrogate him at any time."

Gongsun Zan's words brought Liu Jian back from contemplation to reality.

"Please, brother, find me an assistant who can speak Xianbei, I don't understand Xianbei Hu."

Gongsun Zan said carelessly, "Don't worry, I have personally interrogated him before you. This man can speak Chinese, and you don't need to know Xianbei to interrogate him."

Liu Jian was stunned when he heard the words.

If you think about it carefully, do Xianbei people who can't speak Chinese dare to easily enter the hinterland of Youzhou to cause disaster?

Gongsun Zan personally brought Liu Jian to a side room. Liu Jian did not enter in a hurry, but gently pushed the door open to observe the movements of the barbarians inside.

The Hu man was bound hands and feet, curled up on the ground, with disheveled hair, and blood all over his body.

He was sleeping soundly at this time, and the faint sound of snoring could be heard from the room.

Seeing this, Liu Jian couldn't help being dumbfounded.

"It's all like this, can you still fall asleep? It's really heartwarming."

"Heart wide?"

Gongsun Zan sneered, "Do you know he hasn't slept for two nights?"

"Oh, like this."

No need to guess, Liu Jian also knew that he hadn't slept these two nights, it must have been done deliberately by Gongsun Zan and his subordinates.

Interrogation, any disgusting method will be used. It is estimated that for this Xianbei man, these two nights should have been extremely hard.

Liu Jian turned his head to look again, and suddenly found a very interesting situation.

The Xianbei man was asleep, with his arms still wrapped around his chest, making a defensive posture, mumbling something in his mouth.

When Liu Jian saw this, his thoughts moved slightly.

After thinking about it for a while, he knew how to interrogate himself.

He turned to look at Gongsun Zan, and said, "Brother Gongsun, please prepare something for me."

"what do you need?"

"A piece of good armor, no leather armor, but top grade, a long sword, a pair of felt boots, and the leather whip that my brother usually uses to beat horses, and a boiled dog leg..."

Gongsun Zan looked at him in confusion: "Why do you want these?"

"Brother, don't worry, after using it, I will return what I borrowed, and the same thing is not bad... Brother, you won't be reluctant to give it back, right?"

The method of aggressive generals is really useful for Gongsun Zan.

Gongsun Zan took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and said, "If you and I were not from the same sect, I really want to... Sigh! Come, prepare armor and dog legs for him!"

Okay, after talking about it for a long time, dare Gongsun Zan remember these two things?
……

After a while, Gongsun Zan's men brought together all the things Liu Jian wanted.

Liu Jian then put on his armor, put on his long sword, put on military felt shoes, and tied his hair in a bun again, looking like a soldier in the army.

Then, he did something that surprised everyone.

Liu Jian, who was originally dressed in a plate armor, was quite heroic, but wearing this good armor, he ran to the sand in the courtyard and rolled back and forth several times, making himself covered in dust, and then covered his face with ashes. He also messed up the newly tied bun, making himself look a bit embarrassed.

Gongsun Zan frowned as he watched from the sidelines.

What's wrong with this?
But he was anxious in his heart, after all, he didn't speak, but just let Liu Jian do what he did.

Afterwards, the dirty Liu Jian picked up the cooked dog leg, took a bite vigorously, and smeared the meat oil from the dog leg on his lips indiscriminately, making it shiny.

He took a deep breath, and with the whip in his other hand, he strode towards the side room where the Xianbei was held.

Gongsun Zan followed closely behind, hiding outside to eavesdrop on the commotion inside.

Liu Jian came to the side room, turned his head and whispered to Gongsun Zan, "I will impose the criminal law later, you can send someone in to stop me at the right time."

Gongsun Zan listened to Liu Jian's seriousness, and then looked at his attire, and probably knew what effect he wanted, so he nodded immediately.

"Of course I understand, you just go."

Liu Jian took a deep breath, turned around and kicked open the door forcefully.

"Dangdang!"

With a loud noise, Fuluo, who was sleeping on the ground, was awakened like a rabbit.

He straightened up with a 'bas', and looked towards the door in panic.

Facing the sun, he saw a Han with a dog leg in his left hand and a riding whip in his right, standing there in plate armor and covered in dust.

Judging by his armor and saber, he should be a figure of some status in the Han army.

What is such a person here for?
Fuluo has suffered a lot of physical damage from Gongsun Zan in the past few days, and the string in his heart has always been tense. He is like a frightened bird at this moment, wanting to fly in panic, but this dark house imprisoned him on all sides, so that he could not find a trace of it. light.

But at this time, where there is light, there is still a demon standing there.

He looked at Liu Jian in amazement, and for a moment he couldn't recognize that this was the one who took him to capture him in the first few days.

"Dog thief!"

With a roar, Liu Jian stepped forward with a whip, and slapped Fuluo down with the whip.

"Snapped!"

"Ah~~!"

Fuluo's screams immediately resounded in the room.

Outside the house, Gongsun Zan's cronies heard this and wanted to enter the house to stop Liu Jian, but Gongsun Zan raised his hand to stop him.

Gongsun Zan remained expressionless, and said in a low voice, "Let him make the trouble first."

In the room, Fuluo, whose hands and feet were trapped, was whipped by Liu Jian whip after whip, rolling all over the floor in pain.

While beating him, Liu Jian said viciously: "Xianbei dog! Eight of my brothers died under the horseshoes of your thieves. Even if you beat your Xianbei three clans to death, digging graves and flogging corpses one by one, it will not relieve my heart." Hate! Go to hell!"

"Snapped--!"

"Snapped--!"

The sound of whips and screams kept coming out, making people feel goosebumps all over their bodies.

Gongsun Zan's relatives said: "Mr. County, he doesn't judge people here. He hits people as soon as he comes up. Isn't it a bit wrong? Besides, the thief slave is already injured. If he tosses hard, this person may not survive for a few days." ! You have written to Fang Bo about everything here, if you die now, it may be inconvenient."

"Well, it's almost enough to hit a few times. You go in and block it, so that Liu Deran can have a sense of weight. By the way, you can call him like this after you go in..."

The relative followed Gongsun Zan's order and immediately entered the house.

"Junhou! Don't fight again, Junhou!"

The attendant rushed forward and hugged Liu Jian from behind.

Liu Jian listened to the other party calling him "Mr. Marquis", and thought that Gongsun Zan was very knowledgeable and knew what he wanted to do.

"Let go! I'm going to beat this man to death today! To avenge my brothers!"

"Marquis! I know that Hu thieves are hateful, but the court's rules are still in place. If you fight again, don't blame the last official to report to the county king! Then everyone will look bad!"

After hearing this, Liu Jian raised his whip and slowly lowered it.

But he still glared at Fuluo angrily.

At this time, Fuluo was whipped and shocked by the scene in front of him. He felt apprehensive and didn't know what to do. He was trembling all over, his teeth were chattering back and forth.

People's nerve tolerance is limited, and Fuluo's nerves are extremely fragile at this moment, and there is a possibility of being completely broken if there is a little carelessness.

And what Liu Jian wanted was this effect.

It is impossible to interrogate prisoners without some corporal punishment, but it is too much. Some things are a little pretentious, and it will have a different effect after a while.

Besides, Liu Jian is not going to try him today, but to cheat.
