Chapter 50: How about letting her sleep?
Dong Cheng wanted to replace Cao Ren to accompany Lu Bu.
Cao Ren looked embarrassed: "This ...... I'm afraid it's not good......"
"The general doesn't know my relationship with Cao Gong." Dong Cheng said with a smile: "The general can't trust others, can't even I believe it?" β
Dong Cheng pleaded again and again, but Cao Ren couldn't refuse, arched his hand and said, "Then please General Dong, I'll leave first." β
After telling Lu Bu to retreat, Cao Ren left.
Dong Cheng asked Lu Bu with a pleasant face, "What does General Lu like to eat?" β
"Xiapi is short of food now, and I have only eaten a few full meals when I came to Xudu." Lu Bu replied: "If you have to eat, you can do it, I don't pick it." β
"If the general doesn't dislike it, why don't you go to the cold house and sit down, how about you and I talk about the wine?" Dong Cheng asked tentatively.
"Why are you embarrassed to go to the General's Mansion to bother?" With some understanding of this history, Lu Bu knew what Dong Cheng was going to do next, and he didn't really want to get involved with him.
How could Dong Cheng, who was anxious to find a helper to get rid of Cao Cao, let go of the opportunity to be alone with him.
Dong admitted that Lu Bu had been in a desperate situation by Cao **, and he should hate the Cao family to the core.
Sending people to Xu Du was nothing more than that he couldn't fight Cao Cao.
Once he finds an opportunity, Lu Bu will still turn against Cao Cao.
He didn't know that the young version of Lu Bu in front of him was himself, and more importantly, Lu Bu knew very well what would happen in the near future.
It was hard to get through this crisis, and then to fall into the next crisis is really stupid.
"Feng Xian and I are also old friends, so it's not a nuisance to come to my house." Dong Cheng stepped forward and hugged Lu Bu and instructed an entourage: "Go back and tell the family, let them prepare wine and food, I will have a banquet for General Lu." β
Dong Cheng had already ordered to prepare a banquet, and Lu Bu had no choice but to follow him.
As for arriving at Dong Cheng's house, if something happens that he doesn't want to be implicated, it's not too late to leave.
Accompanying Lu Bu back to his residence, Dong Cheng said: "The cold house is vulgar, don't dislike it, general." β
Dong Cheng is the father of Dong Guiren and the general of the Han Dynasty.
Of course, his dwelling place could not be shabby.
Lu Bu replied: "General Dong is too modest, if it is still said that it is shabby, my residence in Xiapi is simply unsightly." β
Xiapi was also a big city in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.
When Tao Qian was the pastor of Xuzhou, he managed it in an orderly manner.
Although Liu Bei brought the disaster of war to Xuzhou, he also managed Xiapi well.
It wasn't until Lu Bu got Xuzhou and fought with Yuan Shu and Cao Cao that it became depressed and became what it was later.
There are two government offices in Xiapi.
One of them is the Thorn History Mansion where Tao Qian once lived, while the other is the place where Chen Gong and others handled internal affairs and government affairs.
Lu Bu lived in Xiapi in the Thorn History Mansion.
Even the Cao family's mansion will lose its color compared to there.
said that the place where he lived in Xiapi was shabby, just to confirm that his status was not high.
"Fengxian sits in Xuzhou, and actually lets the general live elsewhere?" Dong Cheng showed a surprised expression.
"I have only been away from Wuyuan for a short time, and my status is low, so of course I can't live in my uncle's house." Lu Bu replied: "It's good to have a place to stay in Xiapi. β
"Although the general is young, I think he is a talent." Dong Cheng said: "In time, we will definitely be able to achieve great things. β
"That's another story." Lu Bu humbly said.
"Feng Xian and I are also old friends, so we know him a little bit." Dong Cheng smiled brightly: "If it's him, he is not as humble as the little general." β
"Of course, my uncle can be arrogant." Lu Bu replied: "He is arrogant and looks down on the world, and if I am arrogant, I don't know what to say, how can it be the same?" β
Dong Cheng laughed and took Lu Bu's hand: "General, please come with me!" β
Being led by Dong Cheng, Lu Bu muttered in his heart.
What's wrong with people in this era?
Holding someone's hand at every turn......
If the hand is held by a beautiful woman, there is nothing to say.
The point is that it was a man who was holding his hand......
No one dared to take the initiative to hold his hand in Xiapi, and he was not used to the way of expressing intimacy in this era, Lu Bu was led by Dong Cheng, and he only felt uncomfortable.
Although he was not used to it, he knew that Dong Cheng was showing goodwill, so he couldn't break free.
The two came to the backyard hand in hand, Dong Cheng said: "The banquet in the outer house is to entertain outsiders, Feng Xian and I are old friends, General Lu is his nephew, and they are all family." The banquet was held in the back house, I don't know what the general wants? β
"The guest is as he pleases, and General Dong will be as suitable as he thinks." Lu Bu's answer was not far or close.
Dong Cheng also has some power in Xudu, and offending him now will definitely not do any good.
But if you get too close to him, you will definitely offend Cao Cao.
If the response is too close, it will be hated when it is passed on to Cao Cao in the future, and if the response is too bland, it will also attract a lot of right and wrong if it angers Dong Cheng.
The only thing he can do is to maintain a relationship with Dong Cheng.
Let's fool the past today, anyway, I will leave Xu Du early tomorrow morning, as for what will happen in the future, that will be later.
Lu Bu did not refuse, and Dong Cheng suddenly felt a burst of joy in his heart.
As long as you can bring him into the back house, you can take out the clothes and belt edict to show him.
Once Lu Bu read the edict, there were only two choices in front of him, either to expose Cao Cao, or to tie Cao Cao to the same rope with them and kill Cao Cao.
Cao Cao once crusaded against LΓΌ Bu and almost pushed him into a corner.
Lu Bu hated Cao Cao to the core, and it should be impossible to betray them.
The most likely thing is to draw him to his side and give Cao Cao Duoshu an enemy.
With this thought in mind, Dong Cheng led Lu Bu to a side room.
The guest sat down, and Dong Cheng slapped his face twice.
Apparently everything was ready before they returned.
As soon as the slap fell, several maids brought wine and food.
While they were laying out the food and drinks, several dancers in Luo skirts entered the house.
The dancers who walked in the front wore big red Luo skirts, and the few who followed behind wore Su Lan's Luo skirts.
Every dancer can be called a beauty in a thousand.
Especially the one at the front, the curvaceous figure seems to have been carved by an artist, outlining a perfect arc.
The hem of the red Luo skirt was spread on the ground, setting off her like a stamen in a blooming peony.
The dancer bowed when she entered the house.
When the maid set the food and wine and retreated, the dancer danced.
Luo's skirt fluttered, like colorful clouds rolling in the house.
When he came to this era, he hadn't appreciated singing and dancing, and Lu Bu watched it very seriously.
Dong Cheng had been observing him.
He regarded Lu Bu's seriousness as being attracted by beauty.
"General Lu." Dong Cheng called Lu Bu lightly.
Lu Bu turned his head and smiled at him: "What does General Dong command?" β
Dong Cheng asked tentatively: "These dancers are all raised in my family, if the general takes a fancy to them, how about letting her sleep tonight?" β
