In the next day, Lu Rui has been counting the number of casualties, and a day later, the army has prepared again, and once again moved in the direction of Xuzhou, as for what happens next in Bingzhou, it is not Lu Rui's business, anyway, no matter how much headache, this piece of land will not be his own, at least not now.

In a blink of an eye, another half a month has passed, Yue Fei has already returned to Luoyang a few days ago, and told the imperial court what happened in Bingzhou, and after hearing Yue Fei's narration, everyone's reactions are different, among them, it is the Ten Standing Servants and the General He Jin who are the most obvious.

"Haha, it seems that our investment is really worth it, I didn't expect that he would be able to take down the Temujin who beat Ding Yuan at a young age, this strength is only afraid that it will be able to become his capital in the future, and it is really a strong main force. That Lu Rui has already had a life-and-death quarrel with He Jin, and it is impossible for He Jin to pull Lu Rui over anymore, and now this Lu Rui is obviously closer to us, which is very beneficial to our future development, and then He Jin wants to deal with it, and we also need to weigh it well. Zhang Rang returned to his residence and said to the others.

"What the eldest brother said is that this Lu Rui is now our person, this is definitely a good help for us to suppress He Jin, we can't be so indifferent to our own people, now that Lu Rui has just made a great achievement, we should ask His Majesty to give him a number of rewards, it is best to be able to become an existence that can suppress He Jin, so do we still need to care about He Jin's existence?" Zhao Zhong said to Zhang Rang.

"Well, what you said also makes sense, then since this is the case, we will go to Your Majesty now and ask Your Majesty to reward this Lu Rui." Hearing this, Zhang Rang thought carefully for a while, nodded and said to Zhao Zhong, and then walked towards the place where Liu Hong was.

The Ten Standing Servants have already made up their minds on this side, but He Jin's side is not very good, now He Jin can be said to be extremely angry, Lu Rui has made a great contribution, and there is the existence of the Ten Standing Servants behind, now Liu Hong still calls Zhang Rang his father-in-law, even if he wants to do something, there is nothing he can do, in this way, Liu Hong will continue to reward Lu Rui is already an iron plate, in this way, Lu Rui is likely to continue to increase his influence in the military, and even become an existence that affects himself in his eyes, This made He Jin want to behead Lu Rui immediately.

"Don't panic, general, no matter how much Lu Rui makes meritorious contributions, you are the general of the imperial court, so even if Lu Rui has great merit, it is impossible to surpass you in such a short period of time, as long as that Lu Rui can't be equal to the general one day, we have a chance to clean him up." At this time, a strategist said to He Jin.

"Humph! What you said sounded good, even if this is the case, what can we do to deal with him, he is now far away from the ends of the earth, how easy is it for our forces to completely affect Xuzhou, what other ways can we deal with Lu Rui. He Jin said coldly to the strategist.

"Hehe, the general's words are wrong, it is naturally impossible for us to deal with Lu Rui's entire force, as the so-called strong dragon can't suppress the head snake, so we may not be able to get any benefits, but we don't need to deal with their entire force now, if we just deal with him alone, it is still possible." The strategist said to the general.

"Oh? I don't know what you can do? Hearing this, He Jin immediately became interested and asked the strategist.

"It's very simple, as the saying goes, capture the thief and capture the king first, as long as we kill Lu Rui, then Lu Rui's entire force will naturally be self-defeating, and it is impossible for us to deal with a whole force, so why not send an assassin to assassinate Lu Rui? There are many elite assassins in the assassin group under the general, as long as Lu Rui can be assassinated, then everything will be easy. Maybe Lu Rui's forces will be torn apart because of this, and maybe the general will be able to bring those tiger generals under Lu Rui under his command into his command, wouldn't this kill two birds with one stone. The strategist said to He Jin.

"Well, what you said seems to have some truth, so since that's the case, then do it immediately, everyone disperse!" As he spoke, he waved his hand to the people around him and walked out by himself.

And among these people, there is a figure that Lu Rui is extremely familiar with, this person is none other than the traitorous Cao Cao, after Cao Cao walked out, his face has been very calm, and he doesn't know what he is thinking about in his heart.

"Lord, I don't know what He Jin said?" After Cao Cao returned to his residence, Xi Zhicai had already found Cao Cao and asked Cao Cao.

"As Zhicai expected, then He Jin really couldn't hold his breath, and he was already planning to send a killer to assassinate Lu Rui." Cao Cao said to Xi Zhicai.

"Hehe, this He Jin is just a butcher who can only kill pigs, it is not easy for him to think of this, if it weren't for his sister becoming the concubine of the Spirit Emperor, I'm afraid that now He Jin is still just a butcher who can only kill pigs and sheep, so what is the lord going to do next?" Xi Zhicai asked Cao Cao.

"Well, this Lu Rui is also a talent, but it's a pity that he is not a person who is willing to be subservient, it is impossible for such a person to be used by me, but at this stage, we can't just turn our faces with him like this, or to make friends, so I plan to send someone to Xuzhou to inform him of He Jin's desire to assassinate him, no matter what, at this stage, the main thing is to make friends." Cao Cao said to Xi Zhicai.

"Well, the lord's idea and Zhicai really coincide, so in that case, send someone over to report the news! It's just that the person who reports the news can't be casual, he must be a person who is absolutely loyal to the lord, otherwise it will not be a good thing for the lord at this stage to leak the news. Xi Zhicai nodded, and then said to Cao Cao.

"Hehe, don't worry about this point, I already have a number of candidates in my heart, Ning'er is not small now, it's time to become a man who can take charge of himself, let Ning'er run to Xuzhou for me!" Cao Cao smiled and said to Xi Zhicai.

"Let Childe go? Well, this is a good choice, the son is brave, with the courage of ten thousand people, and he is not afraid of encountering mountain bandits or something on the road, and the existence of the son will definitely be able to rush to Xuzhou in a short time to complete the task of the lord. After hearing that Cao Cao wanted to send Cao Ning out, Xi Zhi couldn't help but nod and said to Cao Cao.

"In that case, I'll go to Ning'er immediately, let Ning'er go for me, and I'll fix a book now." Cao Cao couldn't help but nod his head after seeing that Xi Zhicai also agreed to Cao Ning to deliver the letter, and then he took up the pen and wrote a letter, and after a while, he had already written a letter to Lu Rui.

"Well, then I think it should be about the same, by the way, Zhicai, do you know where Ning'er is now?" Cao Cao asked at Xi Zhicai.

"At this time, Childe should practice martial arts in the backyard! Childe would practice martial arts every day until late. Xi Zhicai said to Cao Cao.

"Alas! Ning'er is fine with everything else, but she just can't calm down and study hard, and she likes to dance and play with guns all day long, so I don't know what to say. After hearing Xi Zhicai's words, Cao Cao couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"The lord can't say that, although the son doesn't like to read very much, but he is not a gentleman who doesn't learn and doesn't know how to do it, he can have such martial arts at a young age, and he will definitely be able to become a peerless general who charges into battle in the future, the lord is a good blessing! In the future, with the charge of the son, it will definitely be a great help to the lord, so the lord should be happy! Xi Zhicai said to Cao Cao.
