In the evening, Liu Xiu and the other two were chatting in the dormitory. Mao Zong suddenly rushed in and shouted: "Mr. is back."

The three of them all raised their heads, looked at him with the eyes of the monster, and said in unison: "Come back when you come back, why are you so happy?"

Mao Zong looked at them panting and slapped his thighs: "Li Zhizhong is here too."

"Li Zhizhong, which Li Zhizhong?" Liu Bei patted his eyebrows and said impatiently.

"Which Li Zhizhong?" Mao Zong couldn't hide his pride on his face, and he couldn't stop talking about his ears. He rubbed his hands and said, "Of course, it is Li Ding and Li Yezhong, the most famous scholar in our Zhuo County."

Liu Bei was stunned and then stood up: "He...has he been smelted?"

"Not." Mao Zong's eyebrows moved, and his mouth was so happy that he was so happy that he went to my Taogu to discuss winter defense. Now he was talking to his father and Mr. Lu." Mao Zong leaned over to Gongsun Zan and smiled flatteringly: "Bogui, I heard them mention you. I should ask you to discuss matters in a while."

Liu Bei was wandering around the room. When he heard Mao Zong's words, his eyes lit up at Gongsun Zan. Then he carefully glanced at Liu Xiu, walked to Liu Xiu, and whispered: "Brother, we can come to study, thanks to Li Jun's recommendation, I should go and thank you at that time."

Liu Xiu said "Oh" and then realized that what they were talking about was the famous scholar Li Ding. However, he was not very clear about what official was in the ruling school. Judging from Mao Zong and Liu Bei's appearance, it seemed very big. What kind of ruthless god is that of the governor.

When Liu Bei saw Liu Xiu's confused look, he felt a little anxious. Li Ding was originally a Gongcao of Zhuo County, in charge of personnel elections and was the most direct way to do things in the county. Li Ding always had a good impression of him. He once said in front of others that Liu Bei would definitely accomplish something big in the future. This sentence has always been Liu Bei's greatest reliance. It is precisely because of this sentence that Liu Xiu's old man Liu Yuanqi treated him like this. Now that Li Ding has become the governor, it is naturally good news for Liu Bei. If he doesn't go to see him and congratulate him in person, when will he stay?

Liu Xiu was not sure about this, but Liu Bei was unwilling to lose this opportunity. He patiently explained to Liu Xiu softly, explaining the importance of Li Ding to their future career. He thought that Liu Xiu would understand after hearing this, but Liu Xiu just nodded casually and still had no enthusiasm.

Liu Bei was a little anxious: "Brother, we should all go and invite you to see you according to your feelings."

Liu Xiu frowned and was a little impatient. He didn't plan to stay in this dangerous place in Zhuo County. It seemed that whether Li Ding would deal with Li Ding or not was related. Moreover, he felt that Li Ding would definitely have something to do with him with Lu Min to Taogu, but he was afraid that he might not have time to meet them.

"You go." Liu Xiu was silent for a long time, but he still didn't plan to go: "Anyway, he didn't recommend me to come at first."

Liu Bei was speechless. Li Ding did recommend him alone at the beginning, but did not mention Liu Xiu. It was just because his family had no money that he looked for Liu Yuanqi, hoping that Liu Yuanqi would invest. He thought that Liu Xiu was holding a grudge and it was hard to say anything about it, but he was a little disdainful of Liu Xiu's ignorance. Not to mention that Li Ding is now a confidant of the governor, even if he is still working as Gongcao in Zhuo County, he cannot offend him. If Liu Xiu doesn't take him seriously, he will definitely regret it in the future.

Liu Bei did not persuade him anymore. He was alone at the door and waited for the opportunity to meet Li Ding.

Mao Zong was happy and left without staying for a while. Of course, he did not forget to show off Li Ding to the others. After he left, only Liu Xiu and Gongsun Zan were left in the room. Liu Xiu looked at the book calmly, but Gongsun Zan was a little uneasy. He thought for a long time and suddenly sighed.

"What's wrong with Brother Bo Gui?" Liu Xiu raised his eyelids and asked casually.

"Deran, you are really indifferent." Gongsun Zan looked at Liu Xiu with some appreciation, "It's not like Chengming and Xuande, you can't see the problem."

Liu Xiu was stunned for a moment, raised his head and looked at Gongsun Zan. His eyes rolled, he put down the book in his hand, and Zhan Yan smiled: "Where is Brother Bo Gui starting?"

Gongsun Zan smiled slightly, stood up and walked to the door, looked left and right, and looked at Liu Bei, who was standing at the door of the second yard waiting for a visit, then returned to the room, bent down, approached Liu Xiu, and said softly: "What do you think of the governor?"

Liu Xiu broke out in a cold sweat. Who is the governor? I know he is a bad person, and he also commented. He avoided Gongsun Zan's gaze guiltily and smiled: "Brother Bo Gui works in the prefect's office, so he naturally has the opportunity to meet the governor. I am just a country man. How dare I have such extravagant hopes, let alone comment."

Gongsun Zan blinked and couldn't help laughing. Liu Xiu said this to him very well. Although he was a scholar, he was from the prefect's office and the son-in-law of the prefect. It was expected that he would be promoted step by step in the future, and it was impossible to compare people like Liu Xiu. Liu Bei was so anxious to ask for Li Ding, and he even felt a little superior.

"What did Deran say? I am just a scholar of calligraphy. With such good calligraphy as Deran, I will be able to be a scholar of calligraphy in the future?" Gongsun Zan sat back on his mat and smiled faintly: "However, I think Chengming may be disappointed."

"Why?" Liu Xiu asked in confusion.

"Because our governor has always disapproved of fighting with those Hu people. He is a disciple of a saint and likes to treat the Hu people with kindness, virtue, and gentleness. After hearing what I said, Mr. Lu must have gone to the county to persuade them to cultivate military preparations and accumulate food and grass in case the Hu people attacked. This is contrary to the governor's always advocate."

Gongsun Zan explained a few words, and Liu Xiu then understood that the current governor of Youzhou was named Liu Yu, who believed in Confucianism and treated the Hu people in a very opposite way to Gongsun Zan, so Gongsun Zan was very dissatisfied with him. Liu Xiu had no good impression of both of them, but he had a disgust towards Confucian scholars from the bottom of his heart. What he was particularly disgusted with was this ruler who was kind to foreign tribes and to his own tribes. Therefore, he naturally showed a disdainful expression and actually echoed Gongsun Zan's words.

Seeing that Liu Xiu agreed with his meaning, Gongsun Zan was in a good mood, and naturally let go of his words, and then made some disrespectful words to Liu Yu. Just as he was happy, Mao Zong came over to invite Gongsun Zan to come over. Although Gongsun Zan was a little slandering about Liu Yu, he did not dare to be negligent. He quickly got up and followed Mao Zong. Liu Xiu sat alone in the room, recalling Gongsun Zan's words just now, and sighed secretly. He vaguely remembered that Gongsun Zan and Liu Yu seemed to be a pair of enemies, and they fought hard in the future, but he did not expect that their conflict was ultimately due to differences in policies against the Hu people.

Liu Bei stood at the stairs and watched Gongsun Zan hurried into the atrium behind Mao Zong. He sighed secretly, saying that if he wanted to invite Li Ding, he had to stand here obediently, but Gongsun Zan was invited by someone. The gap here was really extraordinary. However, he respected Gongsun Zan very much and had no jealousy. On the contrary, he felt that this was what Gongsun Zan deserved.

I don’t know how long it took, Gongsun Zan finally retreated. Although his face was calm, his hurried steps made people feel a little bad. Although Liu Bei was curious, he didn’t ask, and still stood there waiting motionlessly.

After a while, Li Ding and others walked out accompanied by Mao Qin, the head of the Mao family. Liu Bei quickly stepped forward and said loudly: "Liu Bei, a boy from the village, pay homage to Li Jun and ask Li Jun for his daily life."
