Flowers and plants are planted on both sides of the courtyard, which should be in full bloom at this time, but no one has the heart to appreciate them. The atrium is a pond in which fish play under a stone bridge that connects to a small pavilion in the middle of the water.

Under the pavilion sat a fat man, dressed in a magnificent robe, sitting diagonally in the pavilion, his face full of flesh that made him incompatible with the scenery of the courtyard.

If Dong Zhuo's figure can be said to be strong when he first entered Luoyang, he is completely out of shape at this time. When he was in Luoyang, he was extravagant, and since he entered Chang'an, he thought that he was already in control of the situation. It can be said that there is no longer a shadow of the Xiliang general in his body, maybe a person will be easily changed.

There was a maid standing next to Dong Zhuo, holding a wine glass with her head down, and she didn't dare to say a word, if you looked closer, you could see her hands trembling slightly.

There was also a halberd on his other side, and it was not strange that Dong Zhuo often carried a blade when he traveled.

There were not many people in the courtyard, except for the two people under the pavilion, only two guards stood at the door.

Dong Zhuo sat there and didn't speak, as if he was waiting for someone.

It was about the time to wait for a stick of incense, and a person came outside the courtyard, wearing a black armor coat, holding a Fang Tian halberd more than one person high, and the footsteps of the person in the heavy armor were obvious in the quiet courtyard.

"General." The guards outside the door saluted.

Lu Bu stood at the door of the courtyard and looked into the courtyard.

Dong Zhuo's brutality Many people in Chang'an City dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, Dong Zhuo himself knew this, because he was worried that someone would assassinate him, so he often let Lu Bu guard him.

It was the same when Dong Zhuo called him today, but Lu Bu looked into the courtyard and frowned slightly.

This doesn't seem like Dong Zhuo wants him to guard, but it looks like Dong Zhuo is deliberately waiting for him.

Although he noticed the same, Lu Bu still walked into the courtyard.

Dong Zhuo waved his hand flatly, and the maid beside him hurriedly saluted and retreated.

"Sangkook." Lu Bu stood in front of the stone bridge in the pavilion and saluted, he was Dong Zhuo's righteous son, but under normal circumstances, it was not often called father and son.

"Lu Bu." Dong Zhuo's muffled voice came from the pavilion.

"Yes." Lu Bu raised his head, and the two stood on both sides of the short stone bridge and looked at each other.

Dong Zhuo grabbed a fruit on the table and put it in his mouth.

"When am I asking you to come?"

Lu Bu's eyes closed lightly, and he said quietly: "Xiangguo asked me to come to eat at the time." ”

"And what time is it?" Dong Zhuo chewed the fruit in his mouth, put his hand down, and asked lightly.

"It's just a little past the time of eating."

The time of eating is the time of the morning meal, usually from 7 to 9 o'clock in the morning, but after the average person has eaten breakfast, the time for eating has passed.

Looking at Dong Zhuo's appearance, he should have finished breakfast.

"I asked you to come and guard, but you didn't come." The voice under the pavilion was cold, and Dong Zhuo's hand was raised and held on the halberd beside him.

"Are you going to wait until I'm stabbed before you're ready?"

"Xiangguo, Bu doesn't dare." Lu Bu lowered his head, Dong Zhuo was probably deliberately embarrassing him this time.

"Why don't you dare!?"

The hand holding the halberd was tense, Dong Zhuo's face showed a bit of ferocity, and he directly lifted the halberd and threw it at Lu Bu.

He is indeed inferior to before, but the strength in his hands is still there.

The sound of the wind under the pavilion tightened, blowing up the curtains hanging on both sides, and the halberds flew out. In an instant, it was forced on Lu Bu's head, but Lu Bu didn't look up, and he let go of his body at all times.

The sound of the wind howling almost fell against his face.

"Bang!"

With a loud bang, the halberd fell into the ground beside Lu Bu, and Lu Bu's face was reflected on the long pole made of fine iron.

It's ugly, almost gloomy and dripping.

Gritting his teeth and clenching Fang Tian's halberd, Lu Bu looked at Dong Zhuo with a slight sideways gaze, a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

Who is Dong Zhuo, who has led troops in Xiliang for many years, and he is naturally sensitive to killing intent, not to mention that Lu Bu's killing intent is almost impossible to hide at this time.

Towards the pavilion, Lu Bu's footsteps took a step forward.

"What are you going to do?" Dong Zhuo snorted coldly.

Tell him to stop.

Fang Tian's halberd shook in his hand, Lu Bu took a light breath, did not have a seizure, and saluted with his fists.

"Bu is afraid, go to the guard courtyard now, and retire."

As he spoke, he turned around and stepped back, and the two couldn't see each other's faces.

Lu Bu's face was gloomy, if he hadn't dodged away at the end just now, Dong Zhuo's halberd would have really wanted to kill him.

And Dong Zhuo sat in front of the table, looked at the long halberd erected upside down in front of the court, took the fruit and put it in his mouth, and looked at Lu Bu leaving with his eyes.

Murderous intent on me? Lu Bu, it seems that you really have different intentions.

······

It's almost night in the city, it will be the time of curfew, Cao Cao dragged his tired body and rode a horse from outside the house, this time to rectify the newly recruited soldiers and horses, it really made him tired.

"General." The guards in front of the house stepped forward.

"Hmm." Cao Cao answered, tiredly turned over and dismounted, and handed the reins in his hand to the guards.

"Is the gentleman back today?"

"General Hui, not yet." The guards seem to be used to it, and Cao Cao has often asked this question these days.

"Yes." Cao Cao may have been accustomed to hearing such a reply.

After looking at the sky, he turned to look at the guards.

"It's getting late, you can close the door in a while, and you should go and rest early."

"General Xie."

The guard nodded, with a grateful look in his eyes, in this year, it is good to have something to eat, and he doesn't dare to ask for anything.

Cao Cao entered the mansion, and in the hall he took off his cloak, hung it aside, and sat down at the table.

The maid in charge of the tea stepped forward to pour tea for him, and the tea was still warm when poured into the cup.

"It's getting dark, go to the door and light the lights." Cao Cao took a sip of the tea bowl and said.

"Yes." The maid nodded and stepped back.

Cao Cao was left alone in the hall to drink tea by himself, and suddenly a voice came.

"My husband is more attentive to Mr. Gu than his own family, so I am a little surprised."

The voice came, and it was a woman who walked out of the back of the hall, she should have only passed the age of thirty, and she should have been about to grow old, but this woman was still graceful.

Cao Cao glanced at the woman and smiled: "If you eat it, you won't say it." ”

Spreading out a hand, the woman smiled and sat down beside him, leaning lightly into his arms.

The two sat together, Cao Cao drank tea quietly, and the woman closed her eyes with peace of mind, and the hall was quiet for a while.

The woman said softly.

"Zihuan has improved a lot in his schoolwork during this time, Zihuan has also become a lot more sensible, and he has begun to look like a brother, and he will come to play with Zijian. Speaking of which, I really should thank Mr. Gu. ”
