The Zhang family was originally a large Gaoping clan, not as good as the Wang family and Liu family, but they were considered a powerful country, with some financial resources and a prosperous population. However, the Zhang family is not a aristocratic clan, known as the descendant of Zhang Er, but in fact there are very few officials. Zhang Jian's father worked hard all his life and only served as the prefect of Jiangxia, which was considered to have encountered the threshold of 2,000 stones.

If you cannot be an official, the influence of the Zhang family is limited to the local area. The Zhang family is neither as preaching the classics of the Wang family nor the Liu family's clan status. If you want to make a name for yourself, you can only go astray. Zhang Jian killed more than 100 Hou Lan's family members, not entirely because Hou Lan's family was so hateful, but because Hou Lan's reputation was great and powerful enough, many people wanted to kill but did not dare. As a result, Zhang Jian, a naughty young man rushed forward. In fact, he was not young at that time, and was over fifty years old. Maybe he felt that time was too late, so he started to act very ruthlessly, killing more than 100 people, including Hou Lan's mother, completely.

But the facts proved that Zhang Jian was still too young. Not only did his impulse not give the Zhang family the opportunity to jump into the Longmen, but it brought disaster to the Zhang family and a devastating blow to the entire scholar class. Emperor Huan could not bear the unscrupulousness of the scholars, which triggered the first party and fining. The Zhang family also suffered a devastating blow. More than half of the large family died, and only some underage children survived. Zhang Bao and Zhang Ai brothers were survivors.

In the first year of Zhongping, the Yellow Turbans were in chaos. The court had no choice but to lift the party shackles. The party members re-entered the rule, giving Zhang Bao a comfort to the Zhang family and appointed Zhang Bao as the supervisor of the eastern county, which was the official that Zhang Jian had served as the official. However, the Zhang family suffered too much loss, so Zhang Bao was eager to revive his family style and was too ugly to look at him. He also violated the taboos in the officialdom. It just so happened that Man Chong also remediated the powerful and touched the interests of some people. As a result, a master worked from it. Zhang Bao died inexplicably, and Man Chong lost his official position.

Now Zhang Jian, the old Zhang family, is 80 years old, and Zhang Ai and Zhang Yi are not yet thirty years old, and have no children. Zhang Ai has a daughter, and Zhang Yi has not yet married. If Man Chong beat them all in one go, the Zhang family may have lost their heirs.

Faced with this crisis, even though Zhang Jian was already eighty years old and a famous scholar who had been famous for many years, he had to bow his head to beg Man Chong.

Man Chong had no expression on his face. He asked someone to surrender Zhang Ai and Zhang Zhi's weapons, tied them up and took them back to the county court. He passed the city all the way, and most of the people in Gaoping City knew about it. Zhang Jian was a famous scholar. The incident that happened in the world was known to everyone. The grudge between Zhang Bao and Man Chong was not a secret. Seeing Zhang Ai and Zhang Zhi fell into Man Chong's hands, many people felt that the Zhang family was over. Man Chong was not punished so that their family would be destroyed and their family would not let go.

Man Chong took this opportunity to issue an order. In extraordinary times, every household can protect his home and not gather with weapons. It is illegal to have more than three people.

With the example of the Zhang family, no one dared to provoke Man Chong. Most of those who wanted to respond to Yuan Tan gave up their actions and stayed at home in peace.

Liu Biao leaned against the cliff and sat in the hall, holding a roll of bamboo slips in his hand but didn't look at it. His eyes crossed the wall and looked at the gloomy sky, his eyes shrank slightly, and there was a light that was hard to see.

The eldest son Liu Qi stood aside. He looked very similar to Liu Biao, with a slender figure and beautiful eyes. For a long time, he was Liu Biao's only descendant and was highly expected by Liu Biao. This time, Liu Biao abandoned his official position and returned to the field, and the father and son were inseparable from his teachings and study classics every day. However, the situation has changed in the past two days, and Liu Biao was a little absent-minded and often tragic.

Liu Qi was very sensible and stood aside obediently without a single sound.

There were rapid footsteps outside the door, and two tall and strong figures walked in side by side, one was Liu Hu and the other was Liu Pan, both of Liu Biao's followers and Liu Qi's followers. Unlike Liu Qi, they were not easy to study and prefer martial arts.

"Uncle." The two walked to Liu Ping and bowed.

"Well, how is it outside?" Liu Biao came to his senses, moved his body, and signaled Liu Hu and Liu Pan to sit down.

Liu Qi immediately took the seat and asked them to take their seats. Liu Pan sat down, held his knees with both hands, and said respectfully: "Uncle, Man Chong arrested Zhang Ai and Zhang Zhi, and was imprisoned in the county prison. Many people went to plead for mercy, but he disappeared. The city gates were all martial law. I heard that several Jinkou in the territory were also martial law. Jiangdonger he brought was responsible, and the local officials in Gaoping were not allowed to interfere."

Liu Biao chuckled and looked at Liu Hu and Liu Pan. "Did you see those Jiangdong'er?"

"See it."

"How about comparing to the part you trained?"

Liu Hu and Liu Pan looked at each other and were a little disgusted. They were both good martial arts people, and they were determined to make achievements. They wanted to join Yuan Tan several times, but were stopped by Liu Biao. This time, when Liu Biao came back, they wanted to go again. They always felt that such a big battle was right in front of them. It would be a pity that they could not participate. If they missed the opportunity, it would be difficult to stand out in the future.

Liu Biao did not comment. They were anxious, but they couldn't figure out Liu Biao's intentions.

This time, Man Chong took office, brought five hundred personal soldiers and a Wu Hui accent. Although these Jiangdongers are not tall compared to the locals of Gaoping, they are strong in shape and strict in discipline. They are elite at first glance, and are definitely not comparable to ordinary troops. After a little investigation, they realized that this was Sun Ce's personal guard and the real Jiangdong athlete. I have seen these Jiangdongers enforce the law several times in the past two days, and they have settled several groups of illegal rangers cleanly. The combat power they showed amazed them, and they realized the reason why Liu Biao refused to let them vote Yuan Tan.

This is the case with a few people. What does tens of thousands of people mean? If you encounter this Jiangdong athlete, you will have almost no chance of winning and you will be chopped by others as pigs and sheep.

"Sun Bofu is good at training troops. His soldiers under him have amazing combat power and talent in using troops. Yuan Xiansi is probably not his opponent." Liu Biao put down the script and said quietly: "Do you think Yuan Xiansi and Sun Bofu really have no choice between victory and defeat? That is Sun Bofu's face for Yuan Xiansi."

"Will Sun Bofu save face for Yuan Xiansi?"

"I can't imagine it?" Liu Biao smiled and said, "Don't forget, I am the first opponent of Sun Bofu's debut. I know best how I came out of Xiangyang City. Although Sun Bofu is young and does not study, he is a sensible person. He will not act ruthlessly unless he has to. This time, he will be sent to Gaoping. The meaning is already very clear. If we don't act rashly and become enemies with him, he will not break up. But if we support Yuan Tan, then Man Boning is the knife in his hand, and we can't escape any of us."

Brother Liu Hu looked at each other. After a while, Liu Pan said, "Then let's just watch it? If the Yuan family wins the world..."

"Whether the Yuan family can win the world is still between the two. Even if the Yuan family can win the world, it will not fall on Yuan Xiansi's head." Liu Biao picked up the book and looked at the Liu Hu brothers meaningfully. "When you go back and leave behind to thank guests, study and practice martial arts, you can't escape the opportunity you deserve. Don't force your opportunity if you deserve it, otherwise the good fortune will be unpredictable."
