Chapter 255: Gongsun Zan's younger brother

Gongsun Zan was assassinated, although Liu Zhang left first, it is not known whether others will suspect him, but as the Gongsun family, this information must be passed on. www>

Liu Zhang was also taken aback when he heard the news.The first thing he thought of was that in order to find an opportunity to take Liu Bei's life that day, many people from the Ministry of Fire stayed in Youzhou, and even senior brother Wang Yue personally sat in Hebei. down, but accidentally injured Gongsun Bogui?

Therefore, as soon as I got the news, I first recruited Batu and asked him to implement it. The result was that Liu Bei had always been on guard and had no chance to attack. Wang Yue only left three or five people here to stare at him. , others have already transferred to Yingchuan and Luoyang to search for the other person Liu Zhang confessed-Sima Yi.What happened here has nothing to do with Qingzhou forces.

Sitting in the room with Jia Xu, the two of them studied for a long time, but they didn't have a clue for a while.Seeing that the night was dark, they went back to their rooms to rest. [

The next day, the two of them washed up a little before visiting the City Lord's Mansion.To the end of yesterday's turmoil, the assassin was not caught. There are different opinions about the appearance of the assassin, but no one saw it clearly. They only said that it was a man in brown clothes with superb skills. Some soldiers outside saw the figure of the man flashing, and walked along Fleeing along the layers of roof ridges.

This Fanyang City was originally one of the largest cities in Youzhou, with a population of hundreds of thousands, and there were more than ten million people wearing brown clothes. How could they find such a clue?

Lu Bu, who was in charge of apprehending the assassin, was furious like a thunder, and he got angry on his own accord.Just let people loosen the outside and tighten the inside, pay attention to the faces entering and leaving the city, and search secretly.

As for the people who attended the banquet that day, since none of them could say they were ugly, and there was no proof, Gongsun Zan could only make an apology and send them back.

It's just that, like Liu Yu, whose relationship was already extremely tense, he was naturally even more angry in his heart, and some people who were usually separated from the two forces also had a lot of resentment in their hearts.It's just that seeing Gongsun Zan was assassinated and injured, it's not easy to get angry for a while.

But then when the assassins were searched for and visited later, there were some sarcastic remarks, and even more excuses to delay and not cooperate.Everyone in the Gongsun family was also secretly angry, and the atmosphere in the city was like an undercurrent under a glacier, gradually turbulent and surging.

When Liu Zhang and Jia Xu entered Gongsun's mansion, they met a person who was going out. Seeing Liu Zhang coming in, they quickly retreated to the side to give way.The person who sent him out was a man dressed as a scholar in his thirties, his eyes turned to Liu Zhang, with a slight look of surprise.

Liu Zhang stopped to return the salute, but this person recognized him. The person he met at the banquet yesterday was Xing Ju, who was named the captain of Wuhuan by the court, but he didn't know the person behind him.

When the man heard that it was Liu Zhang who came to visit, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly stepped forward to apologize and said with a smile: "It turns out that the emperor's uncle arrived, and this is Gongsun Fan, the younger brother of General Zhonglang, here to greet the emperor's uncle." With a deep bow.

Liu Zhang was stunned, and then he looked at him in surprise, as if he wanted to ask something. A look of embarrassment flashed in Gongsun Fan's eyes, as if he knew what Liu Zhang wanted to ask, but before he could ask, he hurriedly asked his family Lead Liu Zhang to serve tea first.
