Xuzhou, Xiaopei.

Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei rarely got together, talked about wine, and talked about their own affairs.

Looking back on the more than ten years of ups and downs, Liu Bei led Guan and Zhang to make many exploits in the battle to suppress the Yellow Turban Uprising, but because they had no relationship and could not give gifts, they were only named a petty official of the county lieutenant. I have suffered from white eyes and blood and sweat, but I can't reuse it. Not only that, but he was also insulted by the superintendent who asked for bribes, for Liu Bei, who had great ambitions and a passion for serving the country, reality hit him again and again.

The reality is very cruel, and the heavy pressure has made Liu Bei's ideals slowly deteriorate, the Son of Heaven is cowardly, and there are many princes, only if he has the right to soldier, he will not be teased like a dog.

Liu Bei has endured a lot of hardships and grievances on the road to entrepreneurship, and has always been unknown. Until Kong Rong sent someone to invite Liu Bei to help relieve the siege, Liu Bei sighed and said: "Kong Beihai knows that there is Liu Beiye in the world? Kong Rong, who is famous all over the world, also knows that there is a person like me Liu Bei in the world? It can be seen that Liu Bei's fame and status were low before.

At the beginning of Liu Bei's business, he was making small fights, wandering around, and had no territory. Finally, when Tao Qian died and got Xuzhou, Lu Bu came to occupy the magpie's nest again.

Liu Bei knew that he was not Lu Bu's opponent, so he gave up to Xuzhou. What kind of grievance is this, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei can't stand it, they look at Lu Bu angrily, Liu Bei can bear it, he knows that the long road is long, no one succeeds casually, only endure ordinary people can't bear it, wait for the opportunity, and finally have a day when the clouds open and the moon shines.

Now that he has finally reoccupied Xuzhou, he is in a state of panic all day long, Cao Cao's army is ready to go, and there must be a big war after the beginning of spring.

On the other hand, his heart has not been steady, when Lu Bu withdrew from Guangling, he actually took away all the craftsmen and irons in Guangling, and his intuition told him that Lu Bu had already had a conspiracy, and he met Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang before, and was asked about the edict of the clothes, which shocked Liu Bei in a cold sweat.

Although Liu Bei's face was expressionless and vague, but now only he and Ma Teng are the only people alive, and Cao Cao has also sent an order from the Son of Heaven to all the princes, claiming that Liu Bei and Ma Teng are both treason and treason, if Lu Bu is really implicated in the edict, but he is the only one who is fine, I am afraid that he is the informant.

I wonder how the thief knew about it. Thinking of it, Cao Cao and Lu Bu have a lot of intersection recently, if they really let these two thieves join forces, who in the world can stop them, and then sent someone to send a message to Shi A, a burst of crying, and touching words about the Han family, deceived Shi A to treat him sincerely, Liu Bei and promised that after the matter was completed, Shi A could be appointed as the Taishou of Guangling, in order to serve the Han family, Shi A really believed it, and then he went to find Lu Bu with great righteousness.

Poor Shi A was hot-blooded, and he was fooled by Liu Bei and didn't know the north and south.

"Yun Chang, has there been an abnormality in Xiapi County recently?"

Guan Yu resolutely replied: "Everything is stable, and two thousand new soldiers have been recruited, but the grain and grass in the army are drying up day by day. ”

Liu Bei approving: "Yun Chang is more and more like a general, and he is very lucky, now that the war is imminent, he can't care about anything else, first use millet porridge for relief for a period of time, Mi Zhu has already contacted various caravans, and he should be able to replace some grain." ”

Guan Yu nodded silently, I hope so, he has always been strict and harsh to the soldiers, but he is very concerned about food and clothing, and he has a 500 big sword elite soldier under his hand, which is very powerful.

"Big brother, do you think Shi Ah can succeed?"

Zhang Fei asked alone, he was very concerned about this matter, and only hoped that the three slaves would die early, and the world would be peaceful.

"I'm afraid it's very difficult, Lu Bu is a thief with extraordinary martial arts, if he dies, it's best, as long as he can provoke a dispute between Lu Bu and Cao Cao, it's enough!"

"Oh......"

Liu Bei looked at Zhang Fei's suspicious face, and smiled indifferently, he couldn't explain it and couldn't explain it, once Shi A was captured, how could he not find out who he was with Chen Gong's calculations? And Wang Yue is now teaching his children swordsmanship under Cao Cao, and ordinary people will definitely think that Cao Cao deliberately raised first and then suppressed, intending to eliminate Lu Bu.

Lu Bu is not dead, with his reckless brain, he will not give up, it is absolutely possible to attack Cao with Yuan, and he should be able to profit from it, but Liu Bei can't say this.

Liu Bei said to himself at the moment: "Yide, if Cao Cao attacks Xuzhou, Xiao Pei will suffer first, you can't be lazy, you must train diligently." ”

"Brother, rest assured, how dare Yide take it lightly, this time he will definitely beat Cao Thief with a mouth full of teeth!"

Zhang Fei replied confidently.

Only Liu Bei and Guan Yu were very worried, and now although Liu Bei had gathered 20,000 horses, the equipment was shoddy, and it was difficult to compete with Cao Cao's hundred battles.

……

Obifang County, Dongyi Prefecture Pastoral Mansion.

Lu Bu has been sick for more than half a month, and even Meng Qin, who is far away in Seoul County, has sent people to greet him, but Lu Bu still hasn't seen anyone, which makes people wonder through.

Fortunately, there were two generals in the army, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun, and the newly surrendered Liaodong soldiers and the soldiers and horses of the Dongyi Lieutenant Battalion did not have the heart of rebellion, but they were all right.

The eldest lady Yan went to visit again and again, but was blocked by Lu Zhong, and washed her face with tears all day long, but recently she found that the food sent to Lu Bu by the back kitchen was full of meat, and every time she cleaned up the plates, there was not much left, which was enough to prove that Lu Bu had a good appetite, and if she ate well, she would get better quickly, and she would cook for Lu Bu three meals a day, which made Lu Bu value her more.

When the night ended, Lu Zhong brought dinner in.

"Lu Zhong, what delicious food did you send today?"

Lu Bu stretched his body, looking proud, the last ten days have allowed him to rest happily, and he has also sorted out a lot of things in this courtyard, a thick booklet is almost finished by him, from the training of the army to the people's livelihood and wealth, he has thought about it.

Lu Zhong replied with a smile: "Today's kitchen sent a few local side dishes, and the last general can't be named, maybe the eldest lady just learned it recently." ”

"Oh......, let me taste it!"

If people are idle, this mouth will also begin to trick up, Lu Bu has a deep understanding, what was delicious in the past, but now it is different, and he wants to eat something fresh.

Lu Bu savored it, it was really unique, and sighed: "Having a wife like this, this life is enough." ”

"Prince, how long are you going to lock yourself up?"

"It's coming, it's coming!"

Lu Bu sighed, January is about to end, and the time left for him to prepare is at most a month, and when the spring returns to the earth in March, the ice and snow melt, and everything that should come will come.

"Huh...... How can there be a pearl in this dish? ”

Lu Zhong also came over to take a closer look, and really saw a fish in a dish with a pearl in its mouth.

"Junhou, this fish is really peculiar, it actually has pearls."

"I'm afraid it was put in artificially, so you can quickly inquire about who made tonight's dish?"

Lu Zhong got the instruction, went to the back kitchen to ask, only to know that tonight's dishes were made by the eldest lady Yan and the third lady Princess Mingyue together.

Lu Bu instantly felt embarrassed, and entered this courtyard on the wedding night, and kept saying that he couldn't get sick, and he really couldn't stand Princess Mingyue. didn't expect these two women to get along, but it's okay.

"Remove everything, Ben Hou is going to fulfill his obligations tonight, what should you do, what should you do, don't follow, continue to guard this courtyard."

"Ah......h

Lu Zhongwan didn't expect that Lu Bu would say that it was almost now. I don't know what obligations I am going to fulfill? It's inconvenient to ask more, and I'm busy with my own business.
