Chapter 45: Lu Bu and Diao Chan (2-in-1)

At the end of the second year of the first peace, the army led by Zhang Liao also withdrew from Hanzhong, plus Han Sui, who was in charge of the state, and Ma Wan, the lord of Qingyang City, almost all the generals under Qin Hua gathered in Wuwei City.

Qin Hua summoned all of them today, firstly, so that these generals stationed outside could reunite with their families (almost all of their families were in Wuwei City), and secondly, he wanted to let his subordinates know each other, after all, some of them joined early, and some joined late.

Just when Qin Hua and his Wenchen generals gathered together, there was a storm in Chang'an City.

Because Dong Zhuo had hollowed out the power of the emperor and the imperial court, the hundred officials had already been dissatisfied, and he had also reduced the salaries of the hundred officials many times, which made those courtiers who lived in the temple even more resentful.

But the long-term education made them disdain to take refuge in Dong Zhuo's command, so there was only one way left, and that was to get rid of Dong Zhuo.

Wang Yun was preparing, and the other courtiers were not idle.

Since the last assassination of Dong Zhuo by Wufu, there have been several assassinations, but Dong Zhuo was accompanied by Lu Bu when he traveled, and none of them were successful.

Because of these things, Dong Zhuofa relied on Lu Bu, and as long as he traveled, he would inevitably take Lu Bu with him, but this incident also caused Lu Bu's dissatisfaction.

His ambition is to become a general, not a guard, and now in the hearts of the people of Chang'an, Lu Bu is no longer a general, he is just Dong Zhuo's guard.

Wang Yun also saw this, and he had already begun to try to contact Lu Bu, but the camps of the two camps were different, and he didn't dare to find out, but he just had a good relationship with Lu Bu first.

Xiu'er was also in Wang Yun's mansion at this time, and she was indeed called to Chang'an by Wang Yun.

Wang Yun, as Xiu'er's stepfather, asked her to persuade Qin Hua to attack Dong Zhuo, and after many unsuccessful letters, Wang Yun called Xiu'er to Chang'an, because he found that Xiu'er seemed to have fallen in love with Qin Hua and did not persuade with all his strength as he said, which made Wang Yun very angry.

In addition, in the conversation with Wang Yun when Qin Hua came to Chang'an, Wang Yun heard Qin Hua's ambitions, although he couldn't do anything to Qin Hua, he could use the name of his father-in-law to let Xiu'er leave Qin Hua.

Originally, Wang Yun really wanted Xiu'er to implement the serial plan, because Xiu'er is appearance is definitely the best in his house, and after Xiu'er married a wife, it added a bit of charm.

It's just that Xiu'er would rather die than die.

"It's already my fault to leave my husband rashly, how can I still do it at this time, so how can I be worthy of my husband."

Seeing that Xiu'er had a strong willingness to resist, Wang Yun gave up this idea, and he didn't want to use too drastic means, otherwise it would only backfire.

If the matter is revealed and Xiu'er confesses him, then the Wang family will definitely not survive.

So Wang Yun directly asked Xiu'er to assassinate Dong Zhuo as an assassin, Wang Yun knew that Xiu'er had also practiced martial arts since she was a child, and although she later changed to dance, the two had many similarities, and there were not many problems as an assassin.

It's just that Xiu'er has never killed anyone, and I don't know if she will be able to succeed by then.

However, Wang Yun didn't have any expectations for Xiu'er, he asked Xiu'er to be an assassin, but he didn't want her to return to Qin Hua's side and find Qin Hua a little uncomfortable, as for Xiu'er's life and death, he didn't care very much.

"If you can successfully assassinate Dong Zhuo, then the old man will no longer care about Xiu'er's affairs, and you can do whatever you want in Liangzhou, so good?"

"Is what my father-in-law said true?"

Hearing that she could return to Liangzhou, Xiu'er's expression immediately became excited.

"Naturally, take it seriously, but if the matter is revealed, my Wang family will be difficult to protect."

"Rest assured, even if Xiu'er misses, she will never implicate her father-in-law."

Seeing Wang Yun's worried look, Xiu'er immediately assured Wang Yun.

"In this case, then act tomorrow night, I will find you a map of the Dong Mansion, and the location of Dong Zhuo, you remember to be careful of Lu Bu."

"Yes."

After saying goodbye to Wang Yun, Xiu'er returned to her room and took out the two daggers in the package, which Qin Hua gave her for self-defense.

These two daggers were the same as the Cangming in Qin Hua's hand and the Baisheng Sword in Zhang Liao's hand, and were named "Qingluan" and "Fire Phoenix" by Qin Hua.

One of the two daggers is cyan and the other is red, both of which are not inferior to the existence of the ancient fish intestine sword.

"Husband, when I finish assassinating Dong Zhuo, I can go back to see you."

Saying that, Xiu'er held the two daggers in her arms, and the two lines of tears flowed out unconsciously, she actually knew how difficult it was to assassinate Dong Zhuo, and it was difficult for her to come back alive from this trip.

finally came to the day of the assassination, and at the same time, Xiu'er walked out of a house outside Dong Zhuo's mansion and quietly climbed into Dong's mansion.

According to the map provided by Wang Yun, Xiu'er easily avoided most of the sentry posts and came to Dong Zhuo's bedroom.

Quietly pushing the door in, the wooden door creaked slightly, which was particularly harsh in the silence of the night.

There was still no sound in the room, and it seemed that this sound did not wake Dong Zhuo up.

Xiu'er stood on tiptoe, didn't let herself make any sound, and cautiously came to Dong Zhuo's bed.

Opened the tent suddenly, and under the faint light outside the window, the fire phoenix in Xiu'er's right hand stabbed straight towards the raised quilt on the bed.

Then Qingluan in his left hand also followed, and the touch of the two daggers piercing the bed board immediately entered Xiu'er's hand, but there was no feeling of piercing flesh and blood.

"Oh no, there's no one in the bed."

As soon as Xiu'er realized that something was wrong, two spears on both sides of the bed came towards her front door.

At the same time, a pair of hands suddenly stretched out under the bed and firmly grasped Xiu'er's feet.

Fortunately, Xiu'er's posture was soft, and she leaned backwards to avoid the two spears, and at the same time her body twisted, and the Qingluan in her left hand swung out, directly cutting off one of the hands that grabbed her feet.

The two hands under the bed seemed to be the same person, and when one hand was cut off, he immediately let go of the other hand and covered the severed hand instead, and at the same time the screams immediately came from under the bed.

Now Xiu'er's assassination was completely exposed, and there was a noise outside the door, which should have alarmed the guards outside.

Xiu'er knew that the plan had failed and could not stay for long, so she turned over and came to the door of the room.

At this time, the people hiding in all corners of the room ran out, and there were no less than ten guards hidden in Dong Zhuo's bedroom.

It turned out that after experiencing the previous assassinations, Dong Zhuo had already changed the bedroom, but he didn't tell the people, so that the outside world thought that Dong Zhuo was still sleeping in the original bedroom, but they didn't know that Dong Zhuo had already ambushed a large number of people in this bedroom, which was ready to be used to arrest the assassin.

Fortunately, Xiu'er was light and avoided the previous spear attack, but when all of them came out, Xiu'er found that several of them still had bows and arrows in their hands.

Seeing this, she didn't dare to hesitate, and rushed out of the room in a flash, trying to go to a place with rockeries and other shelters, so as to avoid the attack of arrows.

But even so, Xiu'er was still shot with an arrow before escaping from the Dong Mansion, and her right arm was shot by an arrow, but she finally escaped.

It's just that it was not safe at this time, the movement in the mansion had already spread, and a cavalry had already left the mansion and came to the outside of the mansion, and the first person was Lu Bu.

"A few of you, go east, you go west, and the rest follow me."

Lu Bu assigned the task and immediately rode the red rabbit horse to take the lead.

"Scattered and searched, the man was hit by an arrow and couldn't run far."

After sending out all the guards, Lu Bu also walked into an alley, and he had a feeling that the assassin seemed to be in this alley.

Suddenly, he felt a chill in the back of his head, and a dagger stabbed straight at the back of Lu Bu's head, and that person was naturally Xiu'er.

Xiu'er's right arm was injured and she couldn't run long distances, she wanted to take a horse to walk, but she didn't expect that the person she chose was actually Lu Bu.

Lu Bu naturally wouldn't let Xiu'er stab, he turned his head slightly, and avoided Xiu'er's attack, and at the same time stretched out his left hand and grabbed Xiu'er's arm.

"Let go of me, you let go of me."

"Hehe, it's still a female assassin."

Saying that, Lu Bu put down the Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand and unveiled Xiu'er.

The arrow in her right arm was weak, and her left hand was grabbed by Lu Bu, and Xiu'er couldn't struggle at this time.

Under the moonlight of the full moon, Xiu'er's delicate cheeks were exposed in front of Lu Bu, and he was stunned.

Seeing that Lu Bu didn't make any moves after lifting the veil, Xiu'er didn't dare to move.

It wasn't until a dark cloud obscured the moon that Lu Bu came to his senses.

"It's so beautiful that even the moon hid in shame."

Lu Bu's exclamation made Xiu'er's face blush, but the main thing now was to flee from here, so Xiu'er struggled again.

How could Lu Bu possibly let her get her wish, hit Xiu'er's stamina with one blow, knocked her unconscious, and then hid Xiu'er in his cloak.

Although Xiu'er's figure is not petite, it is very slender, and she will not be discovered if she hides in the tall Lu Bu cloak.

"General, no assassins have been found, do you need to continue the search?"

A knight came to Lu Bu's side to give a report.

"You continue to expand the search area, General Ben is a little sleepy, so go back first."

"Yes, send off the general."

The knight also knew that Lu Bu didn't like this kind of guard work, and he didn't stop him when he wanted to leave.

After returning to his mansion, Lu Bu carefully put Xiu'er on the bed.

The first thing to deal with was the arrow on her right arm, and Lu Bu often dealt with this kind of injury, so he pulled out the arrow with a good way, and then applied medicine to bandage it.

Xiu'er had already woken up when Lu Bu drew her sword, but she didn't make a move, and it wasn't until the moment Lu Bu finished bandaging that Xiu'er pulled out Qingluan and stabbed at Lu Bu.

It's a pity that Lu Bu was already on guard, and he caught Qingluan with only two fingers.

"Do you think I didn't notice you and you're already awake?"

Lu Bu said as he took Xiu'er's two daggers.

"The craftsmanship of this dagger is good."

As he spoke, Lu Bu placed two daggers on the table in the room.

Just as Xiu'er was thinking about how to escape, Lu Bu suddenly threw her on the bed.

"Beauty, you're my woman tonight."

As he spoke, he was about to kiss Xiu'er's cheek.

Seeing Lu Bu's approaching face, Xiu'er suddenly felt a wave of nausea, turned her head and vomited.

"I'm not a beautiful man, but I'm not disgusting."

While speaking, Lu Bu unconsciously touched the scar on his face, Lu Bu was not a few injured, but the scar on his face was only the one left by Liu Bei before the Tiger Prison.

However, a scar would not make Xiu'er vomit like this, and Lu Bu hurriedly found the doctor in the mansion.

"Congratulations to the general, Mrs. Zun is pregnant."

The doctor knew that Xiu'er was pregnant just by pinching her pulse.

There are also several wives and concubines in Lu Bu's mansion, and they will increase from time to time, so the doctor directly regards this person who makes Lu Bu care so much as his new concubine.

"Okay, you go down, don't tell anyone about today."

"Yes."

After the doctor left, Lu Bu turned his head to look at Xiu'er on the bed with a look of disbelief.

"Since you are pregnant, let us postpone sexual intercourse. But I also remembered who you are, you are the woman I met with Qin Hua on the street that day, you seem to be from Wang Yun's mansion, and I will talk to Wang Yun directly after that. I don't care who this child is, but after giving birth to this child, you are my woman. ”

After speaking, he ignored Xiu'er, took the two daggers on the table, and walked out of the door.

"Husband, Xiu'er misses you so much."

Suddenly hearing Qin Hua's name, Xiu'er had mixed feelings in her heart, she no longer cared that Lu Bu knew about her relationship with Wang Yun, but worried about the child in her womb.

This is the first and possibly the only child she and Qin Hua, so Xiu'er vows to protect this child well.

Lu Bu, who left the room, was also very depressed in his heart, since he first saw Xiu'er, he was attracted to this girl, but too many things happened after that, he didn't have the energy to think about it, and then he gradually forgot about it.

Unexpectedly, when I saw her again in a few years, the girl was already married and had the man's child.

However, since this person is from Situ's mansion, Lu Bu decided to go to Wang Yun to "talk" about Xiu'er, after all, he still has Wang Yun's intention to assassinate Dong Zhuo.

It was already late at night, and Lu Bu still drank a jar of wine before falling asleep.

The next day, the news of Xiu'er's assassination of Dong Zhuo came in Chang'an.

When the officials heard that the assassination had not been successful, they were all annoyed.

Dong Zhuo was extremely angry, it had only been more than ten days since he was assassinated last time, and someone actually came to assassinate him yesterday.

"It seems that the authority given to those officials is still too great."

Just when Dong Zhuo was thinking about how to further reduce the power of hundreds of officials, Wang Yun was in the center of the mansion for a day in fear.

Xiu'er didn't return home yesterday, and she didn't hear the news of the assassin's capture, I don't know if she was caught, and the most important thing is whether Xiu'er confessed to him.

This mood lasted until the afternoon, when the little guy suddenly came to report "Lu Bu asks to see".
