Chapter 43: Conversation
Therefore, Lu Zhi's kindness to Lu Rui will be remembered in his heart no matter what, if it were not for Lu Zhi's help, Lu Rui may not have a chance to get ahead now.
Therefore, Lu Rui now very much hopes to persuade Lu Zhi to give up his plan to be loyal to the current Han court, although Lu Rui knows that this is an absolutely impossible thing, if Lu Zhi really has this intention, then Lu Zhi has already been preparing for this plan, but he didn't. Decades of perseverance cannot be persuaded by landing Lu Rui in a few words, but Lu Rui still wants to give it a try.
"Rui, can I call you that?" Hearing this, Lu Zhi also sighed and asked Lu Rui.
"The marshal is an elder, and it is natural for the elder to call the junior so, and the marshal doesn't have to care." Lu Rui replied to Lu Zhi.
"That's good. Xiao Rui! I understand what you mean, I also know what the current Han court is like, if the Han court continues like this, it will be split sooner or later. But I'm also old, and in the future, those hegemony from the various princes are nothing for me, and it is impossible for me to wait until that time to compete with those so-called heroes, and the next battlefield should belong to you younger generations, what I can do now is to do my last bit to extend this great Han country for a while, even if it can only make this great Han country survive. Lu Zhi said to Lu Rui.
Although it is said that due to the reasons after Lu Rui crossed over, there is no so-called birth, old age, sickness and death in this world, as long as someone does not deliberately implement it, it is impossible for a person to experience death just by virtue of the consumption of time, but in the hearts of these local characters, these five decays of heaven and man still exist, after all, this is an idea that everyone has, even if it is a system, it is impossible to refresh the memory of everyone in this world, so there will be a kind of I am old in my bones, I don't have the strength to continue to fight for the world.
However, no matter who is in this troubled world, in fact, it doesn't matter if there is an infinite life blessing brought by the system, in this era of three days, one small fight, five days and a big fight, there are few people who will die normally, and they will either kill or be killed on the battlefield, no matter who can guarantee whether they will be alive in the next second.
"Xiao Rui! Since you can admit me as an elder, then I, as an elder, can't treat you badly, and I don't ask you to continue to desperately bless this great Han country that has come to an end, this has no meaning to you anymore, and it is not your responsibility to protect a broken country. Speaking of this, Lu Zhi's tone was somewhat mixed with a hint of helplessness, it seemed that this old man was still very sad about the split of this big man, and also, watching the things he had guarded for decades suddenly shatter his bones would not be in a good mood.
"You're young, if I'm not mistaken, you're in your teens! It's really a hero out of a young man, you can have such insight and ability at such a young age, I believe that you will be able to dominate the battlefield in the future, and I, as an elder, have nothing to do for you, I just hope to be able to do my best to find a place for you in my lifetime as the foundation for the future to stand proud, and this token will also be handed over to you, which can be regarded as a gift I will give you at the end! Hope to be able to help you in the future. After a slight pause, Lu Zhi said to Lu Rui here, and handed the token in his hand to Lu Rui.
Lu Rui took the token in Lu Zhi's hand, of course he knew what this token represented, and it represented all the power in Lu Zhi's hands now, including all his current net worth, all the soldiers and horses, and now all of them were handed over to Lu Rui. Lu Zhi, who was able to become one of the three major lieutenant generals, could have how many soldiers and horses Lu Rui didn't know, but Lu Rui knew that this would definitely not be a small number.
Lu Rui didn't expect that Lu Zhi would be able to rest assured that all his net worth would be handed over to him, which can no longer be summed up by a simple appreciation of himself, this is completely from the bottom of his heart to recognize his existence, and it is because of this that he hopes to be able to leave a strong force for himself after his own death. Lu Rui knew that Lu Zhi now believed that he could make good use of this power, so he would hand over this power to himself.
This is naturally a rare good thing for Lu Rui, but it is also the thing that makes Lu Rui feel the most helpless, that is, Lu Zhi still did not give up his belief that he would do his last bit of strength to survive for a longer period of time for this already dilapidated Han Dynasty, which also violated Lu Rui's original intention of persuading Lu Zhi not to continue to serve the Han Dynasty like this.
But even so, what can Lu Rui do about it? Everyone pursues different beliefs, no matter who can force others to forcibly change their beliefs, no matter who will have a bottom line for themselves, this bottom line is something that they can never violate, such as the current Lu Zhi. He can allow Lu Rui to be disloyal to the Han court, and he can also do his best to give Lu Rui the capital to be disloyal to the Han court.
But Lu Zhi will never allow himself to be as disloyal to this Han court as Lu Rui, even if the current Han court is no different from a rag, Lu Zhi will never allow himself to have any thoughts of betraying him, this is a bottom line that Lu Zhi set for himself, and letting Lu Zhi cross this bottom line is equivalent to taking Lu Zhi's life.
Although Lu Rui felt a little helpless in his heart, he couldn't force anything, so he had to say to Lu Zhi: "The marshal's loving boy will never be forgotten, don't worry, marshal, I will definitely not let you down." Now Lu Rui has nothing else to say, so he can only say this to Lu Zhi.
"Xiao Rui! This is the last sentence I can give you as an elder, although I will give you what I can give you now, but I still want to say this sentence to you, it is better not to do too much, I don't want to meet you on the battlefield one day. Lu Zhi patted Lu Rui on the shoulder and said to Lu Rui.
Hearing this, Lu Rui naturally knew what Lu Zhi meant, this was to warn himself that he had left this power for himself, not to let Lu Rui do things too absolutely, Lu Rui could compete for this world with the world's heroes in the future, but he must not be the first person to rebel against the Han Dynasty to openly oppose the court, in that case, no matter what happened elsewhere, Lu Rui was already nominally a rebellion, if Lu Rui really did this, Lu Zhi would not have any mercy on Lu Rui.
Lu Rui naturally understands the truth of this, after all, the gun shoots the first bird, since you have jumped out, then who else can you fight if you don't fight, in the future, the most important thing in the world is the enemy, so the number of enemies can be counted as one, if there is such a good opportunity to make one's future one less opponent, then it is definitely the most willing thing for all the princes in the world to see.
Although Lu Rui, as a traverser, knows the stakes of these things very clearly, but in the eyes of others, no matter how mature Lu Rui is now, he is just a child who is just a little bit old in his early tens, and children of this age will be born with a mentality of preaching anytime and anywhere as elders, although sometimes such preaching really makes people feel speechless, but it is undeniable that people are kind to themselves.
"Marshal, don't worry! I have a sense of proportion in the future, and I will never make it difficult for you to do. Lu Rui said to Lu Zhi.
"I'm relieved that you can have such thoughts, let's go! I think your brother and uncle are already in a hurry, this time the battle has just ended, go back and communicate with them about the next plan, I believe you can do it, maybe it is indeed a good choice to hand over the world to you. After Lu Zhi said a word to Lu Rui, he and Lu Rui left the place and walked in the direction of the camp.
After returning to the camp, Liu Bowen saw Lu Rui's helpless expression and knew that this persuasion must have been unsuccessful, when Lu Rui asked Lu Zhi to take a step to speak, Liu Bowen had already guessed what Lu Rui wanted to do, and at this time, he saw Lu Rui's sad look and there was no surprise expression, Liu Bowen had already guessed such an ending, after all, 98's intelligence is not just a decoration.
"Virtuous nephew, didn't you succeed in convincing?" Liu Bowen came to Lu Rui, and did not say too much nonsense, and asked Lu Rui directly.
"Hehe, sure enough, nothing can be hidden from my uncle's eyes, as my uncle saw, this persuasion was not successful, the marshal is still unwilling to give up his perseverance, but the marshal handed over this thing to me, hoping that this thing can help me on the battlefield in the future." Lu Rui took out the token and handed it to Liu Bowen and said.
