Several guards opened the way in front, and Lu Bu and Zhang Liao followed behind with the rest of the people.

More than 20 miles is not very far away.

The sun set in the west, and seeing that the sky was about to get dark, a guard turned around and returned to Lu Bu: "Qiqi Wenhou, the front is Qiaojia Village." ”

Looking ahead, Lu Bu saw that there was indeed a village not far ahead.

The village is not large, with only three or five families.

One of the houses occupies a lot of land and looks much more elaborate than the others.

Bathed in the slanting sun, the house was gilded with a pale orange halo, which was more fresh and elegant.

Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao have rejected many people's proposals, which shows that the conditions of their families will not be too bad.

If it is just an ordinary farmer's girl, no matter how beautiful they are, they will not have a chance to pick and choose.

In order to reduce the burden of life at home, their parents must have married them off early in the morning.

Seeing that mansion, Lu Bu judged by his first feeling that Er Qiao lived there.

Lu Bu and the others came to the entrance of the village, and a big yellow dog ran out of it.

It didn't dare to come closer, but barked at everyone from afar.

Lu Bu glared at it fiercely.

The big yellow dog actually let out a sad roar and ran away with his tail between his legs.

Outside the door of the mansion, one of the guards jumped off his horse and slammed the door open.

After a few moments the door opened, and an old servant poked his head out.

He was about to ask a question, when he saw that it was a soldier in armor who knocked on the door, he turned around and ran back with a frightened scream: "Lord, it's not good, the war disaster is coming......"

Lu Bu, Zhang Liao and others were stunned.

The door was opened, and before they could speak, they were actually characterized as a military disaster......

It can be seen that being a soldier in this era is not well received......

Lu Bu and the others got off the horse and walked directly into the house.

They entered the courtyard of the gate, and out of it came several people dressed as peasants.

At the front of them was a middle-aged man under forty years old.

The middle-aged man is very white, and he doesn't look like a person who often goes to the field to do farm work.

There were still four or five steps away from Lu Bu, and the middle-aged man bowed down with a big salute: "Dare to ask the general what is the noble reason for coming to the cold house?" ”

"Is your surname Joe?" Lu Bu looked at the middle-aged man.

"This is Qiaojia Village, and I am the patriarch of the village." The middle-aged man asked rhetorically: "Dare to ask why the general came to the village?" ”

"It doesn't matter." Lu Bu said with a smile: "We just came here by chance by traveling through the mountains and rivers, seeing that it was getting late, and I don't know how far ahead we can meet the village, and we want to spend the night, I don't know if we can make it convenient?" ”

Hearing that Lu Bu and the others were just staying overnight, the middle-aged man was obviously relieved.

He stepped back and stood to the side, and said to Lu Bu: "This general, please!" ”

Accompanied by the middle-aged man, he walked to the wing, and Lu Bu asked, "Dare to ask Your Excellency's name?" ”

"Under Qiao Xuan." The middle-aged man replied.

"Qiao Xuan?" Lu Bu said with a smile: "Your Excellency's name and surname are the same as those of the Great Han Dynasty. ”

"Da Honglu Qiao Xuan is a famous minister of the Han Dynasty, and I am just a country man." Qiao Xuan bowed his head and responded.

Before coming to this era, Lu Bu also read some idle books about the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Every time he saw information about Little Joe and Big Joe, he was always puzzled.

What are the names of the sisters, and whether their father Qiao Guolao is also called Qiao Xuan as rumored.

When he came to Qiaojia Village and saw Qiao Xuan, Lu Bu completely understood.

It turns out that Da Qiao Xiao Qiao's father is indeed called Qiao Xuan, but he has the same name as Qiao Xuan, a famous minister in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Sending him to the outside of the wing, Qiao Xuan instructed his servants: "Settle the general's entourage to stay." ”

Several servants complied, and asked Lu Bu's guards to follow them to other chambers.

The guards all looked at Lu Bu with some hesitation.

Lu Bu nodded, and they followed the servants to leave.

After entering the wing, Lu Bu asked Qiao Xuan: "This place is far away from the city, has the army never come?" ”

"It's deep in the mountains, and it's true that no military has ever arrived." Qiao Xuan replied: "I was going to take my family to Wancheng, but I didn't expect another military disaster in Anhui. ”

"Disaster in Anhui City?" Lu Bu pretended to be surprised and asked, "Can you tell me what's going on?" ”

"It is said that Sun Bofu planned to take Huainan, but was blocked by Lu Fengxian in Huainan." Qiao Xuan replied: "He was defeated in Huainan and returned to Anhui City with the remnants of the army. The defeated soldiers were aggrieved, and it can be imagined what it would be like to make trouble in Anhui. So I didn't bring my family over for the time being, just waited for the rest of the country to be stable, and then it was not too late to go. ”

"It looks like you're going to have to wait a long time." Lu Bu said with a smile: "Don't hide it from Your Excellency, I am Lu Bu, and I came here to crusade against Sun Ce." ”

Qiao Xuan was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly bowed down and made a big salute: "I don't know if Lu Wenhou is here, there are many collisions, and I ask Wenhou to forgive me!" ”

"Qiao Gong doesn't have to be like this." Lu Bu raised his hand and said with a smile: "I'm just a guest who came to stay, how can there be a reason for a guest to let the host repeatedly give a big gift?" ”

Qiao Xuan got up after receiving the gift, and he asked Lu Bu again: "The affairs of the Wenhou army are important, why did you come to the mountains?" ”

"I'm here, don't you know what Gong Qiao is for?" Lu Bu stared at Qiao Xuan and smiled evilly.

Looking at him in astonishment, Qiao Xuan replied: "Wen Hou is a nobleman, I am just a mountain villager, I really don't know what the nobleman intends to do." ”

"It is said that there is a beauty in the hidden mountain, named Big and Small Qiao." Lu Bu smiled and lowered his voice: "Dare to ask Gong Qiao, do you recognize these two beauties?" ”

Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao are Qiao Xuan's daughters, Lu Bu asked, he was taken aback: "Country girl, where is it worth Wen Hou's concern......

"Looks like the rumors are true!" Lu Bu clenched his fists and saluted Qiao Xuan: "Father-in-law, please accept the worship of the son-in-law!" ”

Lu Bu called out to his father-in-law with a shy face, and Qiao Xuan suddenly felt that the world was spinning.

In the countryside, although he is the patriarch of Qiaojia Village, where did he offend Lu Bu, who has tens of thousands of troops under his command?

Lu Bu made it clear that he was here for Er Qiao, Qiao Xuan said with a bitter face: "Wenhou Mingjian, although my family has two daughters, they have not grown up to be ......."

"According to the law of the Han Dynasty, a woman can marry twelve." Lu Bu interrupted him: "The two young ladies should be more than twelve years old, right?" ”

Da Qiao is sixteen and Xiao Qiao is fifteen, and he has long passed the age when the Han Dynasty can be married.

Qiao Xuan said that they haven't grown up yet, which is really unreasonable.

Dumbfounded by what Qiao Xuan said, Lu Bu instructed Zhang Liao, who followed the house: "Wenyuan, arrange it and let the soldiers fence this house, and no one is allowed to go out at will." ”

Zhang Liao withdrew in response.

Qiao Xuan said to Lu Bu with a bitter face: "The little girl is rude, she really doesn't dare to stain Wen Hou's eyes. ”

"I've heard a long time ago that the two young ladies are beautiful and fragrant, does Qiao Gong think that they should be allowed to suffer in the world?" Lu Bu said: "Follow me, who will dare to do anything to them in the future?" Who dares to despise Qiao Gong? ”
