Chapter 62: Let the soldiers go into the city to find women
Mi Fang asked to see her outside the city.
Lu Bu smiled at Diao Chan: "The one who sent the money is here." β
"Send money?" Diao Chan looked at him in surprise.
"As long as you know that he's here to deliver benefits, nothing else matters." Lu Bu stood up: "Madame, go to bed early at night, no matter what movement you hear tonight, don't go out." β
Watching Lu Bu leave with confused eyes, Diao Chan, who lived in the backyard and had almost no contact with the outside, couldn't figure out why Mi Fang was Liu Bei's person, why he sent money to Lu Bu.
Lu Bu came to the city wall, and Mi Fang was still waiting outside.
Glancing down from the top of the city, Lu Bu instructed the soldiers beside him: "Ask him what he is doing." β
"General Lu asked you what you were doing?" The soldier shouted.
Mi Fang replied: "I sent money. β
"Ask him how much?" Lu Bu still didn't show up.
The soldier shouted again: "The general asked how many you sent?" β
"Five thousand hangs, one hang is a lot." Mi Fang replied: "Please send someone to count." β
"Let him into the city." Lu Bu explained to the soldiers on the side.
"The general told you to go into town." The soldier shouted to Mi Fang.
A moment later, the city gates opened, and Mi Fang entered the city with a carriage full of copper coins.
Lu Bu did not walk down the city wall.
He instructed the soldiers: "Let Mi Fang send the copper coins to the treasury first, and then take him to the backyard to see me later." β
When officials receive people, if they are foreign envoys, most of them will choose the front hall.
If you come to someone who is very close or very important, you will generally choose the study.
As for receiving guests in the backyard wing, most of them regard visitors as gifts or deliveries.
chose to meet Mi Fang in the wing room, Lu Bu just wanted to humiliate him once.
Let the world know that although Liu Bei flickered from the emperor to the identity of the emperor's uncle, he was not even a fart in his eyes.
After the battle of Xiapi, it was impossible to maneuver with Liu Bei.
All the heroes in the world can become allies, but Liu Bei is just an undying mortal enemy!
No matter how generous you are, there is no need to talk about any courtesy with your mortal enemy.
Mi Fang was led to the treasury, and Lu Bu returned to the official mansion.
It didn't take long for the guards to lead Mi Fang to the backyard wing.
When she arrived at the door of the wing, Mi Fang asked the guard, "General Lu is here to see me?" β
"The general is already waiting, Mi Gong, please!" The guards opened the door for him.
Mi Fang walked into the house and saw Lu Bu playing with his sword.
"Dare to ask the little general...... Mi Fang arched his hand: "Is Wen Hou there?" β
Lu Bu raised his eyes and glanced at him: "Doesn't General Mi know me?" β
"The little general has been to Xudu, of course I recognize it." Mi Fang said: "It's just that I asked to see Wen Hou when I entered the city this time, and I also asked the little general to pass on my behalf." β
"I didn't expect that I, Lu Bu, would be in my life, and now few people can recognize me." Wiping the saber, Lu Bu said casually: "I am Lu Bu, Lu Bu is me!" β
When he went to Xudu, he used Lu Nan's identity.
Because of his young appearance, although he is extremely similar to Lu Bu in people's impressions, no one has ever doubted it.
Lu Bu calmly admitted his identity, but Mi Fang still couldn't believe it.
People will only get older and older, but there is no one in front of him who is middle-aged, but young and in his prime.
"The little general is not to be joking." Thinking that Lu Bu was teasing him, Mi Fang laughed with him: "It's disrespectful to call Wen Hou's name and surname!" β
"What's so disrespectful about calling me by my first name?" Looking at the saber that had been wiped to the snow, Lu Bu said: "God bless me, let me be young overnight." It's not that I didn't tell the truth to others, so why didn't anyone believe it? β
Mi Fang looked stunned.
It's not that he's never seen strange things, but he's never heard of anyone who can turn from middle age back to teenager.
"It doesn't matter whether you believe or not, sooner or later you will believe." After returning the sword into the sheath and placing it on the table, Lu Bu looked at Mi Fang: "The money was sent?" β
"Five thousand hangs, a copper coin is not a lot." Mi Fang asked, "Dare to ask the general, can you let my brother go?" β
He did not call Lu Bu Wen Hou, but adopted the title of general.
"Yes, of course. It's just that you don't think I'm asking for too little? β
"It is said that Wen Hou promised to send 5,000 hanging money, and he can put it back to my brother, and the man's husband is full of promises, not to mention that Wen Hou is a hero in the world." Mi Fang replied: "No matter who the general is, is it possible to change Wen Hou's military order?" β
"Again, Lu Bu is me, I am Lu Bu." Lu Bu emphasized his identity again, and then said: "The so-called people are poor, short-minded, thin, and long-haired, and a copper coin can be difficult to kill a true hero?" As long as a hungry person can get a full meal, who cares about a word or a tripod? Even if what he said could really be exchanged for a few tripods, he would have already sold it as scrap iron for food. β
Lu Bu once again accented his identity, although Mi Fang didn't believe it, he didn't dare to reveal it.
"I believe the general is Wen Hou." Lu Bu's words made Mi Fang faintly uneasy, he lowered his head and said, "I don't understand what Wen Hou said just now......
"Don't be nervous, I don't mean anything else, just sigh casually." Lu Bu smiled: "I heard that the Mi family was once the richest man in Xuzhou, I don't know if it's the truth?" β
"There are a lot of rich people in Xuzhou, and the Mi family used to just have some money and food." Mi Fang replied: "Uncle Huang was in charge of Xuzhou back then, and my brother has already donated all his family wealth. Now the Mi family is also a family with four walls, and there is no financial resources in the past. β
"Is it really a home?" Lu Bu smiled.
"It's really a family with four walls." Mi Fang replied.
"I'll have your brother out of the city later." Lu Bu said: "Liu Xuande wants to rest in Xiapi, and I didn't drive him away, and now he has been stationed outside the city for some days, and he should leave." β
"How can being stationed outside the city compare to being stationed inside the city?" LΓΌ Bu proposed to let Liu Bei lead the army away, and Mi Fang replied: "The army passed through Xiapi in order to crusade against Huainan, and asked Wen Hou to order the city gate to be opened and let the soldiers enter the city to relax for a few days. Go to the market to find women, spend some of their money, and go into battle to fight more morale. β
"Do you have to go shopping to find a woman before the war?" Lu Bu looked at Mi Fang: "I've been leading troops for many years and I've never heard of this truth?" β
"The soldiers have been away from Xudu for a long time, and they don't have any family members by their side, so they always have to find women to spend some extra energy." Mi Fang said: "Wen Hou has led the troops for many years, and he should be able to understand the hardships of the soldiers. β
"Just for this?" Lu Bu said: "Tell Liu Xuande to send a few thousand more hanging money, and I will find some women from Fengyue Field for him to send them." β
"Uncle Huang wants the soldiers to use some of the money." Mi Fang said with a bitter face: "If the money from the woman is apportioned to the emperor's uncle, the soldiers don't care how much benefit they get when they go into battle to kill the enemy, how can they move forward bravely?" β
