Traveling through the Three Kingdoms: She brings unlimited supplies to build infrastructure

Chapter 115 Ancestral Legacy
"Gongsun..." When the Gongsun family was mentioned, a complex emotion flashed across the young man's face.

He knew that his father had been a general in Gongsun's army, and they had gone on expeditions with the army when they were young.

Later, his father was injured and disabled, so he was sent to Guzhu by General Gongsun, and he became a lowly member of the tribe.

He didn't resent this, on the contrary, he knew that his father was disabled and he was still young. If he didn't come to Guzhu, they would eventually become refugees.

For several years, although they were called Buqu, they received preferential treatment everywhere. This was the kindness of General Gongsun.

His father often reminded him not to forget, and he didn't dare to forget even one day.

That day, they went with the steward Zhou to greet Lady Gongsun. He saw those knights riding on tall white horses, just like his father when he was young!
When he was playing in the camp when he was young, his uncle took him to ride a horse like that.

Looking at those majestic figures, he opened his eyes unconsciously.

In the past, he felt that he was hunting in the mountains and forests with a long bow, which was cool and comfortable, but after seeing those knights, he had some little dreams in his heart.

It would be great if one day I could ride a horse like my father.

But that day will probably never come. General Gongsun was defeated and burned himself. Who else will remember his father who once followed General Gongsun on the battlefield.

They will eventually be slowly forgotten.

"Put it back!" The man looked at his dejected son and persuaded him in a low voice.

However, because of General Gongsun's kindness, they now receive a lot of preferential treatment in the village. Now that General Gongsun has passed away, I don't know if Lady Gongsun will continue to treat them like that.

At this time, the son should no longer be impulsive and cause trouble at this juncture, which would displease the master's family.

Looking at his father's serious face, the young man finally surrendered and lowered his shoulders, turned around and walked back into the house.

At this moment, Dede's voice sounded in the distance. The man was very familiar with this voice, and he turned around with a solemn expression.

The young man was stunned for a while before he realized that it was the sound of horse hooves.

"Excuse me, is this the Ma family?"

The visitor stopped in front of their courtyard, and there was a knock on the simple courtyard door.

"But in front of Mr. Ma?" The visitor was a young officer with a darker complexion, wearing a Han army-style ring-headed sword on his waist, and leading a white horse.

The simple courtyard door could not block the view. The father and son in the courtyard looked at the people outside the courtyard at the same time.

The man's eyes fell directly on the strong white horse, while the young man's eyes followed the visitor closely.

The young man can naturally recognize that this is a knight on a white horse.

Seeing an old man and a young man in the yard staring at him without saying a word, the visitor raised his hand uncomfortably, "Ms. Gongsun hosted a banquet for General Gongsun's old subordinates in Guzhu Manor. I heard that Mr. Ma is a senior of Baima Yicong, and Captain Zhao specially ordered me to Come and invite me!”

"I would like to ask you two, are you free to go to the main house for a banquet?"

The man opened his mouth in astonishment. He had never thought that one day he would be able to go to his master's house for a banquet, and he was speechless for a moment.

Only the young man clenched the ring-shou knife in his hand fiercely, with a strong light bursting out of his eyes.

At this time, Lingzhi City
In early spring, the courtyard was full of life, and because of a light rain, the entire Lingzhi Prefecture was enveloped in a humid air, as if covered with a layer of mist.

Gongsun Jing sat on the porch drinking tea and admiring the spring scenery in the courtyard of the prefect's mansion.

A musical girl played the harp in the distance.

In previous years, he would not be alone, so lonely, especially with the scribe Qingxu, or Du Gong, his trusted confidant for many years, sitting and drinking with him.

However, in recent days, due to Aduna going south to intercept and kill his nephews and nieces, first Du Gong and then the trusted chief secretary lost their heads.

In addition, his father Gongsun Jing visited the prefect's mansion several times, and most of the scribes and scribes who used to chat with him were expelled. This made Gongsun Jing feel even more lonely.

Suddenly, the music prostitute sang was too sad. Gongsun Jing was about to ask her to change to a light and pleasant song, when he saw a guard coming quickly.

"Reporting to the envoy, Lady Gu Zhuyan sent an uncle to deliver... a large coffin."

Gongsun Jing was stunned for a moment, then accidentally knocked over the lacquer bowl in his hand, and the warm tea soup immediately soaked his robe.

Ever since that day when they broke up with each other, when his niece faced him, she wished she could engraved the words "back away three feet" on her forehead, and her hair said "stay away from him". At this time, a coffin was delivered...

Gongsun Jing couldn't help but have a sad look on his face. He just sent a coffin to the prefect's mansion in broad daylight, fearing that the person who came was not good.

But I don’t know what’s going on?

This question went over and over in his mind, and he forgot to answer the guard's words for a moment. "Your Majesty?" The guard who reported the report lowered his head anxiously and waited for a while before calling out in a low voice.

Gongsun Jing suddenly came back to his senses: "Do you have a message?"

"Yes." The guard said hurriedly, "Uncle Dub said that all the things were given to the head of the family. They were... evidence of the good things Mrs. Xuan had done, and there was also a thank-you gift specially given to Mrs. Xuan."

Lady Xuan?Then stop doing his business?Gongsun Jing breathed a sigh of relief.

It seemed that his good sister had done something and was found to have sued her.

Gongsun Jing, who had been troubled a lot in recent days, felt much relieved when she found out that the trouble was not his.

There probably wasn't anything good in the coffin, so he didn't bother to take a look.

"Oh, since Ayan sent it, just send it directly to the head of the family!" Gongsun Jing waved his hand.

Why don't you check what's in the coffin?Send it directly to the owner?The guard was stunned, but since the head of the family and his son didn't have any objections, why should he bother?

The guard bowed and retreated.

On that day, such a coffin and a volume of silk books were sent directly to Gongsun Jing's yard.

"Master, my wife has ordered me to send a gift specifically for Madam Xuan." Zhang Ze respectfully said to Gongsun Jingdao, who had an angry look on his face after reading the silk book, while holding up a mahogany box.

Gongsun Jing squeezed the silk book in his hand tightly, and felt a throbbing pain in his forehead. In his heart, Yaonv was the most caring and understanding person to him. The last thing he wanted to see was the tragedy of fratricide in his family.

He knew that Yaonv had a grudge against Lone Bamboo Manor. In recent days, not only had the yard of his private property been allocated to her, but also a lot of gold and silver Sichuan brocade, brought into her yard like running water, coaxing her.

He never expected that Ah Xuan would have such vicious thoughts and do such evil things.

Gongsun Jing's heart suddenly became cold, and all his children were really cold.

Seeing that he was swaying and seemed about to fall down, Zuo Ping on the side hurriedly supported him: "Since the letter has been delivered, why don't Uncle Zhang leave quickly?"

Zuo Ping originally had some impression of Zhang Ze as a brave young man, but he actually brought these things to the head of the family so blankly.

The head of the family is old, how can he bear this?
Thinking of this, Zuo Ping felt disgusted with Zhang Ze.

Zhang Ze held the box indifferently and was very moved when he saw Gongsun Jing swaying, so he greeted him according to Gongsun Yan's instructions: "My wife has said that the head of the family should take care of himself. Next month, when new wine comes out in the village, he will send it as a token of filial piety."

"My wife also said that it's not a big deal, as long as the owner of the family makes up for the loss, don't worry about the rest."

Gongsun Jing held Zuo Ping's arm and laughed angrily.

Just make up for the losses?

His granddaughter brought him a coffin. She didn't worry that he would be angry or frightened to death, but only asked for losses?

Really, they all have the surname Gongsun, and their cold temperament is just like that of her eldest uncle and aunt.

This smile made Gongsun Jing breathe a sigh of relief: "The three villains mentioned in the letter, why did they only send one coffin?"

"Oh, my wife said, three corpses and three coffins, not to mention the waste, transportation on the road is too troublesome!"

"I picked the big one and let the three of them squeeze in." Zhang Ze held the exquisite box in both hands and gestured.

Gongsun Jing laughed angrily again, it was very good, it really was very good.

"I've collected the things! Go back!" Gongsun Jing waved his hand impatiently.

"My wife told me to bring the loss that the owner has made up for when I go back!" Zhang Ze thought for a while and added: "There is also the horse that the owner promised before."

"Okay, okay, okay." Gongsun Jing praised three times, "Take Zhang Dubo down and give him the full amount of compensation that my father paid for Ah Xuan."

As he said this, Gongsun Jing handed the silk book that Gongsun Yan carefully sorted out alone to Zuo Ping.

"Also, since A-Yan expresses my heart, I will give it to A-Xuan."

Gongsun Jingchong pointed at the servants on the left and right at the lipstick lacquer box held by Zhang Ze.

He knew it wasn't going to be anything good, and even looking at the size of the box, he could guess what was inside.

"Since it is a surprise, I will send it in my name and ask Ah-Xuan to open it on the spot. If she sees the surprise, she will tell her the whole story."

When he said the last words, Gongsun Jing's old face showed an almost indifferent look.

As he said, the Gongsun family does have a cold-hearted nature.
