Chapter 372 The King of Guns Comes to the Door (2)(1/2)
Liu Chuang narrowed his eyes, but looked at Tong Yuan with a deep face.
If it were in the past, Liu Chuang would have been so excited that he couldn't sleep after hearing Tong Yuan's name.
Who is Tong Yuan?
This mysterious figure, which did not appear in official history, but was widely circulated in unofficial history, is Zhao Yun's master. Unofficial history records that Tong Yuan accepted three and a half disciples in his lifetime, and Zhao Yun and Xiahou Lan belonged to that one and a half, while the other two were Zhang Xiu and Zhang Ren.
Zhang Xiu, the King of Guns in the North.
Zhang Ren, the King of Guns in Xichuan, and Luofengpo killed Pang Tong.
With these three and a half apprentices, Tong Yuan can definitely be proud!
However, Liu Chuang's current identity is different... He is the emperor's uncle of the Han Dynasty. He led the Han general, dominated Hebei, and owned the princes of four prefectures.
And what about Tong Yuan?
To put it bluntly, he is a martial artist, and in terms of social status, he is even incomparable to Wang Yue.
If you are a martial artist who comes to visit my mansion, I will naturally welcome you; but if you come to my mansion and act wildly, don’t blame me for being polite.
Therefore, even though Liu Chuang knew Tong Yuan's identity, his face still had a cold expression.
Tong Yuan was also a little frightened!
No matter how high his status in the world is, he is still a vain person.
And he is now facing a prince who dominates Hebei... It is said that the people do not fight against officials. No matter how powerful Tong Yuan is, he will instinctively lower his head when facing Liu Chuang. So when he sees Liu Chuang's gloomy face, Tong Yuan is also a little nervous.
"Husband!"
Zhao Yan stepped forward and gently grabbed Liu Chuang's hand.
Wang Yue also rushed over and bowed and said, "Don't be angry, Ziping was also anxious for the moment, but he had no intention of offending the lord."
Tong Yuan also bowed and said, "I just saw that the young disciple was in danger, so I was anxious, so...
If I had known it was raised by the emperor, I would not have been so anxious. If there was any offense, please forgive me if I had any guilt."
apprentice?
Liu Chuang was stunned for a moment, and a thoughtful look appeared in his eyes.
His eyes crossed Tong Yuan and looked at Sun Shao who was hiding behind Tong Yuan. If he was not wrong, the apprentice Tong Yuan mentioned would probably be Sun Shao.
But when did Sun Shao become Tong Yuan’s apprentice?
Liu Chuang was a little curious and looked at Sun Shao for a long time without saying anything.
If he didn't speak, the swordsmen in the Swordsman Camp naturally could not retreat, and Zhao Yan or Wang Yue also showed nervousness.
Wang Yue has been in the officialdom for many years. Although he is not very proud, he is very clear about some things.
He knew that he would better shut up at this time... The more he said, the more trouble it would be. Liu Chuang could not really do anything to Tong Yuan. After all, one and a half of Tong Yuan's apprentices were working under Liu Chuang. Xiahou Lan was Liu Chuang's confidant, and Zhao Yun was Liu Chuang's brother-in-law. With these two relationships, Liu Chuang could not have any disadvantages to Tong Yuan. The reason why Liu Chuang didn't speak was probably to want to get some benefits from Tong Yuan.
Zhao Yan originally wanted to say something else, but was stopped by Wang Yue and signaled her not to speak.
Liu Chuang's disloyalty also made Tong Yuan feel a little nervous.
Sun Shao was even more afraid and stood nervously behind Tong Yuan... Although Liu Chuang didn't speak, as the uncle of the Han Dynasty and the lord of Hebei, he had been in a high position for a long time. Even if he stood there without speaking, he would naturally produce an inexplicable pressure.
Even Zhuge Liang and others would be frightened, not to mention that Sun Shao was just a child.
"Dad, Dad!"
At this time, Liu Zhi stopped crying, walked to Liu Chuang's side and pulled Liu Chuang's clothes. Liu Chuang looked down and the frost on his face disappeared. He squatted, wiped off the tears on Liu Chi's face, then picked up Liu Chi and took the toy from her hand.
It was a kite made by Liu Chuang for Liu Zhi. The workmanship was very rough, but it was very popular with Liu Zhi.
"Dad, it's broken!"
Liu Zhi, who is less than three years old, speaks vaguely.
Liu Chuang whispered: "Be good at Zhinu, let's do one for you when you look back."
"Yeah, yeah!"
Zhinu nodded repeatedly, and a bright smile appeared on his little face.
"Mr. Tong."
Liu Chuang looked at Tong Yuan and said in a deep voice: "You care about your apprentice, I can forgive your previous recklessness.
Zilong and Heng Ruo are my confidants, so I won’t make things difficult for you. However, you just injured Xiao Hei, but you must not ignore it. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be said that my General’s Mansion can be arrogant? You have to explain this matter to me."
Tong Yuan's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
He opened his mouth and was about to speak, but he saw Liu Chuang wave his hand and said, "I have an idea, Mr. Tong can listen.
You can stay in the General's Mansion and teach your disciples with peace of mind.
However, while teaching him, I also want to ask you to be my gun technique coach. I wonder what Mr. Tong wants to do?”
Tong Yuan was stunned when he heard this and looked at Liu Chuang in shock.
Your Uncle Liu is known as Feixiong, so you want me to pass on your gun technique?
Wang Yue said at this time: "Zi Ping, I'm going to tell you that there is a swordsman camp in the General's Mansion today, but the lord always believes that the gun is the king of soldiers, so he wants to form another gunsman camp. You also know that although I have some knowledge of guns, I am more proficient in swordsman skills.
That's why I thought of inviting you to be the gun technique coach.
In this way, you are a member of the General's Mansion and become a family... In this way, you don't have to take the previous events to heart."
Tong Yuan couldn't help but smile bitterly!
Liu Chuang looked at Wang Yue in surprise and praised himself in his heart.
This old guy is indeed a mature man... Liu Chuang mentioned the matter with Wang Yue only at the beginning of the year, and then he never talked about it again. Even Liu Chuang himself did not take this matter too seriously. He just said that he would ask Tong Yuan as the instructor of gun technique, and he had a temporary idea. Unexpectedly, Wang Yue immediately understood what he meant and took the responsibility on himself.
Tong Yuan pondered for a long time and looked back at Sun Shao.
He also noticed Sun Shao by chance and thought about accepting disciples.
Tong Yuan is almost seventy years old, so he will close the door if he collects **. Sun Shao is young, and if he polishes it carefully, he will not be able to achieve higher future success. It is precisely because of this that Tong Yuan appears in a hurry and even forgets where he is.
I believe that Liu Chuang will not treat him badly if he stays in the General's Mansion.
As for the matter of the Gunsman Camp, Tong Yuan didn't care much... Teaching soldiers' gun skills is different from teaching their apprentice's martial arts. At that time, Liu Chuang will definitely equip him with a few helpers like the Swordsman Camp. And what about Tong Yuan? He only needs to teach appropriate gun skills.
Thinking of this, Tong Yuan made up his mind.
He quickly bowed and bowed, "It is a blessing for Tong Yuan to be valued by the emperor.
I can respond to this matter, but I still ask the emperor uncle not to blame the child... I am already planning to treat him as a closing door, and ask the emperor uncle to fulfill his wish."
Sun Shao actually became Tong Yuan’s closure**?
Liu Chuang raised his lips and a smile appeared on his face.
This kid is such a great blessing. He can be trained by Tong Yuan. I believe that his achievements will not be too bad. At least, they will not be as unknown as in history.
"Dad, Dad..."
Just then, Liu Zhi suddenly spoke.
"Don't punish him. It's not good for Chi Nu. If you fall down by yourself, it has nothing to do with the little brother."
"Um?"
Liu Chuang raised his eyebrows and his eyes fell on Sun Shao again.
Sun Shao's heart suddenly became nervous. He then remembered that he had just pushed Liu Zhi down... If Liu Chuang was blamed, it would never be a trivial matter.
Liu Zhi is kind-hearted, but the child's simple words are full of flaws.
Now, not only Liu Chuang knew that Sun Shao had bullied Liu Zhi, but even Tong Yuan complained secretly.
He wanted to plead for Sun Shao, but he didn't expect a woman to come from a distance, and her expression seemed even more panicked.
"Uncle, please forgive me if you are guilty."
The woman came to Liu Chuang and knelt down without saying a word, "Young Shaoer must have been unintentional to do anything, so she must have no intention of harming the little lady."
Liu Chuang recognized that the woman was Mrs. Da Qiao.
Since Mrs. Qiao settled in the General's Mansion, she has been living in seclusion.
Apart from Sun Shangxiang, she never interacted with anyone. Even if Mi Feng and others chatted with her, she tried her best to shirk the past.
Mrs. Qiao knew her situation very well!
To put it bluntly, she and Sun Shao were the hostages sent to Youzhou by Sun Quan, and life and death were no longer important.
Before arriving in Youzhou, Mrs. Qiao was disheartened. If she had not promised Sun Ce, she would have taken care of Sun Shao to grow up, and she would have committed suicide long ago... Her surname was tactful and she did not like to fight with others. After Sun Ce's death, she stayed in her door and recited Huangting silently at home. She wanted to pull Sun Shao, but she unexpectedly thought that she would be taken as a hostage and came to Youzhou from Jiangdong.
If it weren't for Sun Shangxiang's company, Mrs. Qiao would have been desperate.
Liu Chuang treated her quite respectfully. Although she was arranged to be in the General's Mansion for surveillance, she did not restrict her and her mother and son.
Unexpectedly...
Mrs. Qiao was uneasy and didn't know what to do.
When Sun Shao saw this scene, he was also stunned!
To be continued...
