Chapter 1085: Prison Visit
After thinking about it slightly, Lu Bu agreed to Jia Xu's proposal.
Just like Liu Wei, the king of Hongnong back then, even if he jumped out to order the princes in the future, because the historical records are dead, most of the scholars in the world do not believe it.
What's more, Liu Bei's appeal is far inferior to Liu Wei's.
Now he, even if he escapes to death, he doesn't dare to raise the banner at all, otherwise, once Lu Bu knows where Liu Bei is, he will definitely use thunderous means to exterminate him.
"Lord, what to do with those plundering Guangling troops?" Xu Huang clenched his fists and asked for instructions.
"All the generals and military marquis involved in the incident will be executed in the city tomorrow." Lu Bu's decision was neat, as for those Guangling soldiers who had participated, let it go for the time being, if you really want to study it carefully, it is estimated that you have to kill all the Guangling army.
"My lord, most of the officials in the city have abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, only Chen Deng and Mi Zhu are the only two who refuse to surrender and have been thrown into prison, please make a decision."
"Escort Chen Deng to Xuzhou and hand it over to Chen Qi to deal with, I promised before that after the city is broken, my son will be spared." Lu Bu knew in his heart that if it weren't for Chen Jue's secret disclosure of information before, it would not be so easy to grasp the movements of the Xuzhou army, so this favor still has to be returned.
"As for Mi Zhu......
Lu Bu lifted his chin, and there was a little thought in his eyes.
"My lord, the last general will ask to go to the prison and persuade Mi Zhu to come down."
In the ranks of military generals, there is a person who comes out of the ranks to hold his fists.
Regarded as it, it is Zhenwu Zhonglang General Xu Shu.
A few years ago, under the abduction of the pit of the joke, he took the little sister of the Mi family, and Mi Zhu was still his eldest brother.
The husband and wife are harmonious, and he often hears his wife mention Mi Zhu's care and love for her.
Now that the eldest brother is in trouble, he has not committed a heinous crime, so Xu Shu still wants to get him out of trouble and save Mi Zhu from trouble.
"Okay, that's right."
Lu Bu nodded in response.
After that, everyone asked some questions, and Lu Bu also gave instructions one by one.
"If there is nothing else, today's meeting will be dispersed for the time being."
When the meeting was over, it was already dark outside, Lu Bu waved his hand, and said to everyone, the siege of the city is hard, everyone is tired, and after dinner, go back early to rest.
The generals responded, and after clenching their fists, they withdrew from the hall one after another.
"Meng Qi, you stay."
Lu Bu whispered.
Ma Chao sighed in his heart, retracted his right foot that stepped out of the threshold, turned around silently, and waited in place.
"What does the lord command?" Ma Chao asked stubbornly.
Lu Bu didn't rush to speak, but waited until everyone dispersed before he slowly spoke: "Meng Qi, you are something I grew up watching, and I have high hopes for you." I deliberately asked you to stay today, in fact, there is nothing else, I just want to tell you that although it is good to be affectionate, it is ...... The next is not an example. ”
"The last will be convicted!"
Ma Chao hurriedly lowered his head and admitted his mistake, he was not stupid, how could he not hear the off-string sound in Lu Bu's words. Although I don't know who revealed the news, it is certain that Lu Bu definitely knew about Zhao Yun's private release of his sister.
Therefore, it is not difficult for Lu Bu to speculate that Ma Chao intends to help Zhao Yun get out of trouble today.
It is a felony to privately aid an enemy general.
In other words, it is not impossible to change to an ordinary general, let alone cut officials and remove knights, and it may not be impossible to fill the army and cut off their heads.
Fortunately, Ma Chao admitted it, but he was also honest, Lu Bu didn't pursue it anymore, he waved his hand outward, signaling that Ma Chao could retreat.
"The last will be retired."
Ma Chao lowered his head and walked out of the lobby nervously.
He didn't even dare to look at Lu Bu's face in the seat, this once extremely familiar lord has now become a superior who is not angry, not angry.
In the north of the city, the prison is dark and does not see the light of day.
After the water poured into Pi, the dungeon was extremely humid, and there were many puddles of water, and a lot of moss grew in the bottom corners of the walls.
Crunch~
With a soft sound, the door to the outside world opened.
Torches were lit at the door, and the firelight reflected Xu Shu's face red.
"Oh, General Xu, what kind of wind blew you here?" The warden pretended to be surprised and greeted him with a smile on his face. He is not the title of General Xu Shuzhonglang, but most people in the officialdom know that this Xu Zhonglang will have an extremely good relationship with that gentleman and Guo Jia, who sacrifices wine.
"On the orders of the lord, come to see Mi Zhu."
"Okay, Xiaguan will take you there."
The warden replied very briskly and led the way himself.
Walking straight along the gloomy dungeon, until a cell at the end, the warden stopped and ordered the men to open the door, and the chain that locked it rattled for a long time.
"Mi Zhu, someone saw you coming!"
The warden was outside shouting.
The man sitting inside turned his back to the outside, motionless, as if he hadn't heard.
The warden wanted to shout again, but Xu Shu stretched out his hand to stop him, telling him to step back first, and he had something to say to Mi Zhu alone.
"Then you speak slowly, if you have something, you can just greet the subordinates."
With that, the warden led the people out of here.
Walking into the cell, the air smelled of rotting and moldy in addition to the smell of dampness.
"Uncle, they didn't embarrass you, did they?"
Xu Shu stepped forward and caught the weeds on Mi Zhu's body.
Seeing that it was Xu Shu, the indifference on Mi Zhu's face eased a little, but he didn't have too much emotion at all: "Xu Yuanzhi, what are you doing?" ”
"I'll pick you up."
"Get out? Heh, I'm a felon, how can I get out? ”
"Uncle, as long as you are willing to ......"
"I won't!"
Mi Zhu knew what Xu Shu wanted to say, and without waiting for the words to finish, he directly rejected Xu Shu's thoughts.
"Why do you bother, the second uncle who is far away in Xuzhou has already descended, the good birds choose the trees to perch, and the good ministers choose the lord to do things, such a simple truth, don't you understand, big brother?"
"This spineless thing!"
Hearing that his younger brother Mi Fang chose to surrender, Mi Zhu was so angry that he scolded, and after scolding for a while, he suddenly stopped scolding, sat on the ground with a depressed expression, and sighed.
Fortunately, at least the incense blood of the Mi family can continue to be passed on.
"Uncle, Xuzhou has been decided, from now on, there will be no more wars in the world, and the territory of the Han Dynasty will be reunified, isn't this the peace you want to see?"
Xu Shu is still bitter, as long as Mi Zhu is willing to give in a little softly, Lu Bu will definitely not be embarrassed.
"Taiping? How can there be peace? In my eyes, I only saw the foreign thief Kou Xuzhou, burning, killing and looting, killing and bloodthirsty. If you don't treat the people with benevolence and righteousness, how can you say that you are peaceful? ”
"The lord is different from Cao Cao."
"In my eyes, it's no different."
Seeing that Xu Shu still wanted to say more, Mi Zhu waved his hand: "Okay, you don't have to bother with me, I just hope that in the future, you can treat my little sister well, if you can help the Mi family when they are in trouble, I will be really grateful." ”
"As for me, you don't have to say any more."
Alas!
Xu Shu sighed, this eldest brother of his own family is really stubborn like a stubborn stone.
When Xu Shu was about to leave, Mi Zhu suddenly stopped him.
"Yuan Zhi, I want to ask you something."
Xu Shu turned around, thinking that Mi Zhu had a change of heart, so he patiently waited for the following.
"Xuande Gong, he ...... Still alive? ”
Mi Zhu's eyes were full of hope.
Liu Bei has harmed you like this, at this time, you are still thinking about him.
Xu Shu's voice was cold.
He's dead.
