After Dong Zhuo set off from Liangzhou, he personally led 5,000 elite soldiers all the way east, but he did not go straight to Luoyang, but stationed the army in Hedong County, which was more than 100 miles away from Luoyang. Xu Rong www.biquge.info originally suggested to Dong Zhuo that he should stay in a certain place and watch the movements of Luoyang, and then wait for the opportunity to enter Luoyang, so these 5,000 elite soldiers were only forwards, and then most of Dong Zhuo's troops staying in Liangzhou would be immediately transferred to the eastern front.

However, Dong Zhuo was still a little shaken in his heart, although he did not question Xu Rong's judgment, he did not immediately urge the remaining Liangzhou soldiers and horses to come as soon as possible, although it was said that the troops scattered everywhere could not be all gathered at once, but Dong Zhuo did not give a death order, and he had inadvertently slowed down the speed of the follow-up troops.

At this time, Ding Yuan, the commander of the state and the cavalry, had already led his troops to enter Luoyang from Hedong first, intending to join the general He Jin. The Bingzhou Army remaining in Hedong County was only in the rear, and it was also planned to advance in a few days.

After Dong Zhuo personally arrived in Hedong County, with Dong Zhuo's hearty personality, it was also extremely common sense to hold a banquet to summon the commanders of the state army.

On this day, Xu Rong, who has never liked banquets, was also invited by Dong Zhuo.

It's night, the moon is dark, walking on the road feels like being swallowed in the dark, Xu Rong doesn't like this feeling, in the consciousness of her body, she is extremely afraid of the dark and depressed. Although it is said that Xu Rong's current "personality" does not reject darkness at all, such a contradictory situation makes her walk a little staggering, and I don't know if she is nervous or afraid of something.

She didn't bring Ah Chu and Qili or Ren Hong, but brought Xinyi, although in the formal banquet, none of these subordinates could enter, but with Xinyi outside, it was also a safe guarantee.

Xu Rong asked Xinyi to change into a small dress, although she looked a little too delicate, but fortunately, Xinyi's expression was calm, and she would not show the timidity of a little woman at all.

When he arrived in the hall of the Taishou Mansion, Dong Zhuo sat high in the middle, with a proud and ambitious face and a lovely smile, which made it seem that his figure, which was already a little hairy, had become a little vigorous.

Xu Rong glanced lightly, there were not many people in the hall, Dong Zhuo dispatched troops this time, and there were not many main generals brought over, and the few people with higher qualifications were mainly Hu Zhen and Guo Duo, and then, sitting high in the guest seat, was a burly man with an extraordinary appearance.

"Mr. Xu Rong has arrived, please take a seat."

Dong Zhuo got up warmly to entertain Xu Rong, personally led her to the guest seat, and was sitting next to the handsome-looking man. Sitting closer, this man is about 20 years old, born with a dignified appearance, eyes like meteors, a tall and straight nose bridge, and a lofty instrument, which really has the momentum of a heroic man among people. Compared to him, it seems that Xu Rong is too short.

Even some people in the banquet looked at Xu Rong with some contempt, with mockery and unkind smiles on the corners of their mouths.

Dong Zhuo didn't think there was anything wrong with the seat he arranged like this, because he didn't think that Xu Rong would feel unhappy because of these things, although he had only known Xu Rong for a few months, and they hadn't met a few times, Dong Zhuo still felt very kind to Xu Rong in his heart.

"Hello Mr. Xu."

The handsome man looked at Xu Rong slightly, although it was a little strange that he was short and black cloth all over his body, and he didn't know how to distinguish his appearance, but he was very polite and didn't show obvious rejection.

"Let me introduce you, this one,"

After Dong Zhuo returned to the main seat and sat down, he stretched his hand to the handsome and tall man, and said to everyone present:

"He is Lu Bu, who is now the chief bookkeeper under the account of Ding Yuan, Lord Lu!"

Xu Rong's heart jumped, and the wine glass in his hand almost spilled the wine: He, is Lu Bu, Lu Fengxian? That famous big man in history, Lu Bu, the unparalleled Lu Bu in the world in the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" written by later generations, Lu Wenhou!?

Xu Rong secretly took a closer look: this man is tall and has thick arms, he is really a person who practices martial arts, and at a glance he knows that he is a general with strong martial arts, and his appearance can be said to be dignified, very handsome, and he is really a well-looking figure, which makes people feel majestic at a glance.

Lu Bu seemed to feel that the strange-shaped dwarf beside him threw a burning gaze at him, and he secretly felt a little suspicious in his heart, frowned, and leaned in a slightly direction away from Xu Rong.

After Dong Zhuo finished introducing Lu Bu, Hu Zhen in the banquet just nodded slightly, and his gaze at Lu Bu had an extra layer of contempt: it was just a master book.

Guo Duo also secretly looked at Lu Bu carefully, he had heard of Lu Bu's name, the name of "Flying General" resounded throughout the state, to be honest, he really wanted to compete with this person to see if this so-called "Flying General" was a waste of fame.

Feeling that the atmosphere was a little awkward, Dong Zhuo smiled and drank the wine glass in his hand:

"Everyone, just drink, don't be polite to me!"

"Yes!"

Although there are all kinds of emotions mixed secretly, but the banquet still has to be hypocritically agreed, everyone has a glass of you, I have a cup, persuade each other to drink, and the atmosphere is a little more lively. Only Xu Rong, no matter who persuaded her, she refused to drink, because she had always been like this, and there was no friendship with her colleagues, although Dong Zhuo was a little unhappy in her heart, no one embarrassed her too much.

After three rounds of drinking, Guo Duo's face was slightly red, and he picked up the wine glass and walked towards Lu Bu, with a deep smile on his face: "I heard that Lord Lu is known as General Fei in Bingzhou, presumably Lord Lu must be skilled in arching and unstoppable!" ”

Lu Bu smiled lightly and waved his hand: "It's just a false name, and I am ashamed and ashamed." ”

Xu Rong looked at him in surprise on the side, so modest and polite, it didn't look like the "Lu Bu" in her impression, but okay, "Dong Xiaoyou" is just a person in the future, after so many years, unless you see it with your own eyes, how many "impressions" can be accurate?

Guo Duo borrowed the meaning of wine, and said loudly: "Lord Lu doesn't have to be humble, the name is passed down by people, and it is not called by yourself, so Lord Lu must have real skills!" Why don't you show a few hands to everyone, so that those of us who come from Xiliang can open their eyes? ”

Lu Bu still waved his hand: "All the generals are people with strong martial arts, cloth, how dare you hold it up?" ”

Guo Duo had a look of disdain on his face: "Is the general hiding deeply, or does he dislike me and other rude people, and don't want me to wait to see the general's skills?" ”

Lu Bu saw that there was a layer of frivolity in Guo Duo's complexion, he did not get angry, but smiled coldly: "I don't dare to dislike it, Bu is just a master book, how can it be compared with a general?" ”

Dong Zhuo listened to Lu Bu's words and said loudly: "From the old man's point of view, Lord Lu is heroic and extraordinary, and sooner or later he will become the pillar of the country. ”

Lu Bu drank a few more glasses of wine, his face turned a little red, and he was a little flattered when he heard Dong Zhuo praise him so much, and he bowed his hand to Dong Zhuo again and again: "My lord's praise, the lower officials are really ashamed!" ”

When Guo Duo heard this, he already understood in his heart that General Dong already had a plan to accept Lu Bu into his account, and at this time, he would entangle with Lu Bu again, refute the general's face, and he was afraid that he would not have good fruit to eat, so he returned to his seat silently, with a trace of anger in his eyes.

Dong Zhuoke is very knowledgeable, and the generals he selected are all characters who later shined on the battlefield, such as Li Dao, Guo Duo, Hu Zhen, Yang Ding, etc., so he has long seen that Lu Bu's skills must be very good, in addition, he is in the main book, and he is always close to Ding Yuan on weekdays, which shows that Ding Yuan regards him as a guard, which is not only an affirmation of his personal martial arts, but also a trust in his loyalty. Such a talent should naturally be cherished, and Dong Zhuo already had the idea of wooing Lu Bu at this time.

"Ding Yuan, that old guy is old, and sometimes he is too cautious and too old-fashioned, so ah...... The position of the chief bookkeeper is really wronged by the general. ”

After Dong Zhuo finished speaking, he said to Lu Bu kindly: "However, Jianyang (Ding Yuan's name Jianyang) is also from a cold family, similar to the old man, but he has been an official for a long time over the years, and it is not the same as before." ”

"Speaking of which, in fact, the old man is quite old, he shouldn't say that Jianyang is an old guy, haha."

Dong Zhuo smiled, and everyone present also laughed.

Lu Bu saw that Dong Zhuo treated him kindly, and his words were simple and sincere, on the one hand, he felt sorry for himself that he was just a master book, and on the other hand, he also said some words for Ding Yuan, and in a witty way, he brought over the words that pointed out Ding Yuan's old and stupid words just now, which showed that Dong Zhuo was thick and fine, and between his words, he was very careful of himself.

Lu Bu smiled deeply, raised his wine glass and drank it all.

Xu Rong secretly had fully understood the purpose of this banquet, and it seemed that Dong Zhuo wanted to buy Lu Bu and then control Ding Yuan's state army. Strictly speaking, at this time, Dong Zhuo still has the position of state pastor, whether he accuses Ding Yuan or feels sorry for Lu Bu, from a common sense point of view, it is very in line with Lu Bu's state of mind at this time, and it is no wonder that Lu Bu's expression became more and more soothing after Dong Zhuo spoke.

After the banquet was over, Xu Rong went straight back to his mansion, which was a temporary residence that Dong Zhuo had bought for her in Hedong, although it was only a small courtyard, it could be regarded as a unique scenery. Xu Rong thought to himself, with such a thoughtful arrangement, if anyone was replaced, he was afraid that he would be moved by Dong Zhuo.

Entering the room, Xinyi vigilantly guarded the courtyard, while Qili and Ah Chu stood guard by the door, in case anyone dared to break into the room and find out the identity of their girl. Ren Hong brought a basin of water to wipe Xu Rong's body, who had already removed the black cloth.

"Miss, these banquets of Lord Dong, you should go less in the future."

Ah Chu is still full of anxiety, and now that he has come to this point, it is impossible to let the young lady withdraw. I can only pray for God's mercy and not let Miss Rong be seen through by Dong Zhuo and others.

"Ah Chu,"

Xu Rong wiped the warm towel in her hand on her skin, which was as fine as clotted cream, and felt the comfortable touch, she narrowed her eyes slightly:

"Today is a special case, General Dong is going to entertain a very important guest, me...... In the past, I just showed my face, and I didn't drink, so I don't have to worry. ”

"Ahh

Ah Chu sighed, in fact, she would be worried when Miss drank alcohol, and if Miss didn't drink, she was also worried. Ah Chu understands that those officials are all good drinkers, and the young lady always doesn't drink, but she is afraid that she will be suspected by Dong Zhuo, and then she is afraid that one day she will suddenly find out her identity by Dong Zhuo.

"So, Miss saw the distinguished guest entertained by Lord Dong today?"

Ah Chu then asked, she didn't plan to ask who it was, she just wanted to deflect the sigh just now, after all, she also felt that it was not good to sigh in front of the young lady like this.

Xu Rong naturally saw Ah Chu's purpose at a glance, she smiled slightly, and she didn't intend to say anything.

"Well, the man sat next to me, a very handsome young man."

How old are you? This was said as if the young lady herself was very old...... Ah Chu and Qi Li secretly complained in their hearts at the same time.

"Speaking ......"

Xu Rong looked at Ren Hong, who had been silently wiping his body behind his back,

"Hong'er, he's still your countryman."

“………… I? ”

Ren Hong was used to talking to Ah Chu and the others when she was bored and didn't say anything, and at this time, Miss suddenly brought the topic to her, which obviously made her a little stunned.

"Well, Hong'er, I remember...... You said before that you are from Jiuyuan, Wuyuan County, Bingzhou, right? ”

"Yes, Miss is really good to remember."

Ren Hong put the towel into the water and rubbed it gently and seriously, although the young lady was wrapped in a thick black cloth, she didn't sweat much, and the basin of water was still crystal clear and not polluted at all.

In the past three years, Miss used to learn horseback riding and archery with Sima Li...... Every time she came back, although her clothes were gray, her body was always surprisingly clean, and Ren Hong felt more and more that Miss Rong might really be possessed by some god. Otherwise, how would it become what it is now, especially that temperament? Therefore, Ren Hong was very surprised that the current "Miss Rong" could still remember her previous life experience.

"Fortunately, what Hong'er said, how could I forget?"

Xu Rongying smiled and looked at Ren Hong, Ren Hong looked at Miss Rong's jade face, and couldn't help blushing a little, she felt Miss Rong's unearthly temperament more and more, and even if she looked at it for a long time, she would have love, and ...... Low self-esteem comes. Ren Hong didn't dare to look any further, and hurriedly picked up the basin of clear water and planned to leave the house.

"That person's name is Lu Bu, and now it is said to be the master of the original account of the Bingzhou Assassin Sting, I see...... General Dong values him very much, but I am afraid that this person will have a bright future in the future. ”

Xu Rong couldn't say what Lu Bu's status would be in the future, so he hastily said a few words about Lu Bu.

"By the way, Hong'er's father seems to have been a county official over there, I don't know if I've heard of this person?"

"Boom!"

The basin of water in Ren Hong's hand fell from the ground, and Ren Na spilled the water.

"Hong'er, why are you so careless?"

Ah Chu and Qi Li were taken aback, and scolded Ren Hong with annoyance.

Ren Hong's eyes were full of astonishment at this time, her face was very strange, as if surprised, and as if delighted:

"Feng Xian...... Brother? ”
