Chapter 168
The woman first hugged the girl, and then kept bowing to Gao Shun:
"My lord, my lord, it was my fault. I offended my lord, and I hope my lord will not remember... Don't bear grudges against me, forgive me, I really didn't mean it."

There was no complaint or unwillingness in the woman's tone, but panic and remorse, which made Gao Shun a little embarrassed.

It stands to reason that he shouldn't be riding a horse in the downtown area. There are so many people in the downtown area that there is no room for this big horse. He made way for Gao Shun to walk in smoothly.

In fact, detours are not impossible, Gao Shun also figured out a few routes, and there were not many people, but he was simply too lazy to turn around.

And because he was thinking about something just now, Gao didn't pay attention to the situation in front of him by the way, and his horse riding speed was a little faster, which made the tragedy almost happen.

Logically speaking, this should be Gao Shun's responsibility. First, he should not drive horses in the downtown area, and second, he should not be so fast. In the words of later generations, this road has both speed and height limits, and Gao Shun committed both. up.

But the person who made the mistake was not at fault, and the person who was almost hurt was constantly apologizing, which made Gao Shun feel a little indescribable.

"It's nothing, just be more careful next time." Gao Shun thought about it, and comforted him.

It's not that he doesn't want to admit his mistake and then pay some compensation to the mother and daughter, it's just because if he does this, the woman will be so scared that she will kneel on the ground and kowtow to him.

Even so, Gao Shun also received many bows, and praises.

Bowing is for the woman and her daughter. The woman not only bows herself, but also bows with the girl.

The praise came from the people around. They were just watching the fun and discussing whether Gao Shun would get angry and find trouble with his mother and daughter. They didn't expect Gao Shun to solve it so lightly, and they kept praising him.

"This lord is really amazing, amazing."

"The old Wang's family ran into an adult's horse last time. As a result, his son was knocked into the air, and he was beaten. He died a few days after returning home."

"I just saw my lord pull the rope (rein) to avoid it. What a good man, what a good man."

"I originally thought that such a good person was only Liu Shijun, but I didn't expect to see one with my own eyes today, and I don't know what your lord's last name is."

Gao Shun's face was flushed with embarrassment, but when he heard the last sentence, the corners of his mouth twitched.

How far Liu Bei has won people's hearts, to be compared with Liu Bei at this time, it's really... crazy.

Of course, this is just Gao Shun's joke, and he also knows about Liu Bei's good reputation.

Because he was afraid of offending the common people because of distraction, Gao Shun didn't think too much, and rode his horse in a well-behaved manner, and drove to Liu Bei's mansion.

In the mansion, Liu Bei sat on a large pear flower chair, holding a teacup with one hand, and writing and drawing on the map with the other.

Although he and Guan Zhang both slept late yesterday, he got up early in the morning and played a set of sword skills in the garden before sitting leisurely in the study.

Although he is a member of the royal family, his family has long been defeated. In his generation, there is nothing left, and he is impoverished, so he does not have the habit of eating breakfast, which is what he was used to when he was a child.

Otherwise, his current status is not considered low, no matter what he has to eat three meals a day, not for anything else, because it is style.

"Cao Cao...Xu Du...Zhu Lu...Refugees..." Liu Bei drank a sip of tea, kept writing and drawing on paper, and at the same time kept talking to himself: "There is still Gao Shun... hiss, Gao Shun is hard to handle."

Liu Bei originally thought that Gao Shun would be able to be vigilant against him so that he would not spoil his affairs, but he did not expect that the two of them could be regarded as fighting side by side, and Gao Shun was still so cautious.

Before he learned that Xu Huang got good wine, he invited Gao Shun to drink. Cao Cao also sent Gao Shun to cook wine in the green plum grove, so Gao Shun should be a person who likes to drink, especially good wine.

Although Liu Bei had heard rumors that Gao Shun didn't like drinking, but seeing was believing, he could still confirm that Gao Shun liked drinking.

But at the celebration banquet yesterday, the people who came were not ordinary people. Liu Bei spent a lot of money to buy good wine, especially for the table of Gao Shun and other generals, who used even more good wine one by one. Zhu Ling, Lu Zhao and others were all drunk Huh, but Gao Shun still tasted it, and didn't want to drink too much at all.

This shows that Gao Shun still doesn't trust himself and his heart is still with Cao Cao.

What should I do, is it possible to really kill him?Liu Bei rubbed his eyebrows.

He is not an indecisive person, even if he is sometimes like this, he is pretending, most of the time, he is decisive.

He will not be lenient in dealing with those who stand in his way.

But for Gao Shun, he hesitated.

If Liu Bei was polite to Gao Shun before because he had no soldiers and horses in his hands, and he wanted to make friends with as many generals as possible, it would make sense.

Now he has Xuzhou, with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses under him, and has reached an agreement with some businessmen in Xuzhou. They will provide him with food, grass, military equipment and other materials without worrying about logistics.

From this point of view, Gao Shun is just dispensable. Although he has no one under his command now, but sitting in Xuzhou, there will always be someone with a background. Gao Shun is not worth his concern at all.

But for some reason, Liu Bei didn't want to kill Gao Shun, and always wanted to subdue Gao Shun.

Why?Is it because of Gao Shun's brave trapping in the camp?Or is it because Gao Shun has an appetite for him?Liu Bei didn't know either, he just saw Gao Shun's eye, a very simple eye.

"General, General Gao is here." The guard outside the door said softly.

"Gao Shun is here? Please come in." Liu Bei rolled up the paper on the table that he wrote and drew just now, hid it aside, then put the brush aside, put his hands on a cup of tea, and sat down obediently on the chair.

"General!"

Gao Shun was brought in by his servants. As soon as he entered the door, he saw the old god Liu Bei sitting there, like an old cadre. If the teacup in his hand was replaced by a painted ceramic jar with "serving the people" printed on it, it would be more like .

"Yi Lai Lai? Sit down." Liu Bei said lightly, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth: "Shall you drink tea?"

"No general, I drank when I came here." Gao Shun refused directly.

Now Liu Bei has already called Gao Shun a word. It stands to reason that this is only used when the relationship reaches a certain level, or when the superior calls the subordinate, but the relationship between the two does not belong to any of these.

But Gao Shun didn't refute. This is very subtle, and the smile on Liu Bei's face became a little bit wider.

In Liu Bei's view, this was a good sign, but Gao Shun knew in his heart that he was simply too lazy to argue with Liu Bei.
