"My lord, there is a scribe outside the palace who asks to see you!"

Lu Bu put down the paperwork he was working on in his hand and asked curiously, "Who do you know?" ”

"This person calls himself Yanzhou Chen Gongtai."

Lu Bu was stunned, Chen Gongtai? I don't seem to know him. However, when a celebrity asked to see him, Lu Bu would not slack off, got up and walked outside the house, intending to greet him in person.

"Yanzhou Chen Palace has seen Wen Hou!"

Lu Bu looked at the gentle scribe in front of him, nodded lightly and said, "Sir, don't be polite, please come in quickly!" After that, under Chen Gong's slightly shining eyes, Lu Bu successfully led him to Luoyang City, which was still being renovated on a large scale. As for why the palace was not renovated? It's also simple to say, the Son of Heaven is now in Chang'an, if he can't welcome back the Son of Heaven, I am afraid that the palace will be repaired. Moreover, the money and wood spent on repairing the palace must have been a lot of money, which was too wasteful.

Chen Gong casually looked around the people and craftsmen who kept coming and going around the Luoyang City Mansion, and nodded frequently, as if he was complimenting. The repair of Luoyang, the project is not huge, such an orderly process, so that Chen Gong is curious, there are incredible advisers under Lu Bu? Thinking like this, Chen Gong opened his mouth and asked, "I don't know who Wenhou arranged to deal with the repair of Luoyang?" ”

"Ben Hou is a general, Wuyuan Zhang Liao!" Although Lu Bu was curious about why Chen Gong asked about this, he didn't hide his casual answer. Chen Gong nodded when he heard this, didn't ask any more questions, followed Lu Bu to chat with each other, and slowly walked towards the mansion, but he was a little curious about Zhang Liao in his heart. After Chen Gong sat down, Lu Bu sent someone to find Zhang Liao to meet Chen Gong together.

"Luoyang is already so dilapidated, and most of the people in Henan, Hongnong and other places have been migrated to the land of Sanfu by Dong Zhuo, and the land of Luoyang is almost useless, why should Wen Wen settle here and vigorously develop?"

Lu Bu glanced at Chen Gong in surprise for a while, he didn't expect that Chen Gong, who had just sat down, would ask himself so straightforwardly. Zhang Liao frowned unhappily on the side and looked at Chen Gong, and said in a deep voice: "Oh?!" Could it be that in the opinion of Sir, Luoyang is useless here? ”

Chen Gong turned his head and glanced at Zhang Liao, and asked suspiciously, "I don't know who the general is..."

"This general is Sima under Wen Hou, and Wuyuan Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan are also!"

"Look up for a long time!" Chen Gong was stunned, and after making a salute, he continued: "It's not useless, it's just that Luoyang's potential has been destroyed by Dong Zhuo, and if you want to develop it, it's no different from moving mountains. ”

"In that case, I wonder if Mr. has any suggestions?"

Chen Gong ignored the slight provocation in Zhang Liao's words, turned his head to Lu Bu and said: "If the royal family is not prosperous, the country will not be a country." The princes rose together, and the separation of the world was inevitable. Since Wen Hou wants to find a foothold and fight against the world's heroes, Luoyang is really the first choice. ”

Lu Bu didn't know what Chen Gong's purpose was when he came today, so he looked at Chen Gong with a slightly wary face, waiting for Chen Gong to continue.

Seeing this, Chen Gong smiled faintly and said: "Since you want to develop Luoyang and become the foundation, the first thing for Wenhou is to absorb the population. There is a lot of arable land around Luoyang, and there are eight passes, which are easy to defend and difficult to attack, as long as the population is sufficient, it can be completely self-sufficient, and cultivate and recuperate. Now that the princes from all walks of life are dealing with internal troubles and recuperating, as long as Wen Hou is not too public, the princes around Luoyang will not have time to take care of Wen Hou for the time being. ”

"Wen Hou can take this opportunity to raise tens of thousands of troops in the land of Luoyang and compete for dominance in the world."

Chen Gong's suggestion coincided with Lu Bu's own thoughts, which made Lu Bu a little excited in his heart. However, Chen Gong's sudden visit made Lu Bu unsure of Chen Gong's intentions.

"Thank you, sir, for the point!" Lu Bu clenched his fists and asked quietly and lightly, "I don't know why Mr. is here today?" Is it just to mention Benhou? ”

Chen Gongwen Yan smiled lightly, stood up, and after bowing deeply to Lu Bu, he asked solemnly, "I don't know what Wenhou's ambition is?" ”

Lu Bu was a difference again, could it be that Chen Gong came today to study himself. The Yanzhou Chen family is a big family in Yanzhou, and of course its reputation is not low, and of course Lu Bu has heard of it. At this time, if you can get the support of the Yanzhou family, it will be much easier to take root in Luoyang. Thinking like this, Lu Bu was even a little excited.

"Bu has no great talent, only a little recklessness. The soldiers under his command are willing to follow, but they just hope that one day they can welcome His Majesty back to the capital and support Sheji. Lu Bu got up, looked at Chen Gong solemnly and said firmly, with a look of hope in his eyes.

Chen Gong stared at Lu Bu's eyes for a long time, took a deep breath and said, "The princes of the world are all self-reliant in the name of King Qin and Kuang Fu Sheji. In the palace's view, only Wen Hou, even if he discredited himself, was still doing practical things to help the Han. If Wen Hou does not give up, the palace is willing to give advice to Wen Hou before and after the saddle. ”

After that, Chen Gong bowed deeply and waited for Lu Bu's reply.

Lu Bu's face was overjoyed, he stepped forward to help Chen Gong, and said excitedly: "Gongtai is a great talent, and being able to bend under the command of Bu is the hardship of Bu Sansheng. ”

"So, the palace to meet the lord!" Chen Gong raised his head, smiled, and saluted Lu Bu again.

Being able to get the allegiance of the Yanzhou Chen family, Lu Bu was overjoyed, bent down and helped Chen Gong up again and laughed: "Hahaha... Gongtai will be the candidate military division in the future, and Wu Lu Bu can get the help of Gongtai, and he will definitely be able to welcome His Majesty back to the palace and support Sheji. ”

Zhang Liao on the side was even more excited. Although Lu Bu can fight well and is brave, Lu Bu's foundation is too weak, and fighting with all the princes with his current strength is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg. Originally, Zhang Liao planned to find the right time to persuade Lu Bu to choose all the princes to surrender as soon as possible, and in the future, he also hoped to be the prime minister of the marquis, or even from the dragon's work. But today's arrival of Chen Gong made Zhang Liao see the hope of Lu Bu to establish himself as king.

"Congratulations to the Lord for his talent! Congratulations to Brother Gongtai! ”

For Zhang Liao's congratulations, Lu Bu and Chen Gong both smiled happily and did not answer, but the excitement in their eyes made it not difficult to guess the excitement in their hearts at this time.

A person as talented as Chen Gong, Lu Bu has been thinking about it for a long time, and today he can get Chen Gong's allegiance, and Lu Bu will definitely make the best use of it.

"Come, come, come! The public station has worked hard to see how Benhou will develop in the future. Lu Bu cordially took Chen Gong's right hand and came to the map in the palace. Chen Gong followed Lu Bu forward with a smile and did not stop him. In fact, when Chen Gong was planning to come to serve Lu Bu, he already had a draft, even if he didn't look at the map, Chen Gong could immediately formulate a plan for Lu Bu that was most suitable for Lu Bu.

"The lord can kill Dong Zhuo, whether it is induced by the ministers of the court or voluntarily, although the lord has ruined the lord's reputation a little, but there will also be benevolent and righteous people who appreciate the lord's righteous act of destroying relatives, so the lord does not have to worry about being spurned by the world." Chen Gong didn't seem to see Lu Bu, who was a little embarrassed, and continued: "In this way, the lord only needs to think clearly about who can ally with the surrounding princes and who wants to destroy him. ”

"Then from the perspective of the public platform, who will unite and who will attack first?"

"Gong has heard that the lord has been with the prince of the Northern Regions for a long time, I don't know if there is such a thing?"

Lu Bu said with a regretful and guilty face: "There is indeed a little old love, but now I'm afraid... Hey..."

"Don't sigh, lord!" Chen Gong chuckled and said, "Since the lord and the Zhenguo Duke have been in existence for a long time, then the lord and the Zhenguo Duke can form an alliance." ”

"First, although Henan and Hanoi are separated, the Shangdang is easy to defend and difficult to attack, even if the lord occupies Hanoi, it may cost a lot of troops and horses to defend the northern region in the future; Second, the biggest enemy of Zhenguo Gong at this time is Yuan Shao, whether Yuan Shao or Zhen Guogong, if you want to dominate the world, the first thing is to unify the four states of Hebei; Thirdly, the white waves in the east of the river have become a natural barrier between the lord and the prince of Zhenguo, so that the northern region does not have too much vigilance. Chen Gong said confidently: "Besides, the palace heard that the prince of Zhenguo attaches great importance to love and righteousness, as long as the lord states the benefits and harms of it, I expect that the prince of Zhenguo will definitely agree." ”

"As for who to attack first, don't panic for the time being." Chen Gong continued to say with a posture of victory: "Cao Cao is trying to unify Yanzhou at this time, and he will not be an enemy of the lord for the time being; Yuan Shu wanted to include Yuzhou in his pocket, and there were a few people who were afraid of Sun Jian, who had rushed back to Yangzhou, so Yuan Shu would not send troops north for the time being. The most important thing for the lord now is to gather the displaced people and develop agriculture. ”

"Strategist." Although Zhang Liao admired Chen Gong's strategy, he was also worried about the movement of the Northern Regions and said: "Although Xiang Ao's biggest enemy in the Northern Regions at this time is Yuan Shao, whether Xiang Ao or Yuan Shao will unify Hebei, they will definitely go south, and the lord will bear the brunt. ”

"What General Wen Yuan said is extremely true!" Chen Gong nodded with admiration in his eyes, and continued: "Therefore, after the lord rests and recupes, the first to send troops is not the Kwantung princes, but the remnants of Xiliang who still occupy Chang'an and hold the Son of Heaven hostage!" ”

"Send troops to Chang'an!" Lu Bu and Zhang Liao exclaimed, they never thought of pinning Liu Xie down.

"Yes, too!" Chen Gong's face was a little grim and said: "Since the lord wants to help Sheji, it is inevitable to temporarily take away His Majesty's power. Instead of letting treacherous people seize power and harm the world, why didn't the lord borrow His Majesty's hand, sweep the princes, and return power after ruling the world for His Majesty? ”

After Lu Bu was extremely shocked, he lowered his head and thought for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "What the public platform said is extremely true! Whether it was He Jin, Zhang Rang's generation, or his father-in-law, they were all murderers who caused today's scarred man. We can't be sure which of the princes really supports Sheji, so it will be up to Ben Hou to put an end to this troubled world! ”

Chen Gong and Zhang Liao looked at Lu Bu, who slowly raised his head and looked more and more determined, and nodded with satisfaction.

"We will act in accordance with the public station strategy and restore people's livelihood first!" Lu Bu, who made the decision, would not procrastinate, and directly ordered: "Wen Yuan arranged for the manpower to fully cooperate, and strive to have the strength to fight with Cao Cao and the others after they have gained a foothold in various places." ”

"No!" Zhang Liao excitedly received the order and led Chen Gong down to start restoring people's livelihood.
