Chapter 410: Weight Increase
The place where Lu Ren met Zhao Yun and the Zhen sisters was still a day's journey away from Pengcheng. In fact, why didn't Zhao Yun want to go to the city to sit and take a look? It's just that if the hundred or so horsemen he brought really entered the city, it was unlikely that he would not attract the attention of the local officials and soldiers, so at most he would send a few people to the city to have a look, either to inquire about the news, or to exchange some grain and rice with the prey they had hunted.
But now that he is in Lu Ren's team, he doesn't have to worry about that kind of trouble. Lu Ren is the assassin of Xuzhou, and it is very common to bring a few hundred people with him, who will ask a few more words? In addition, Zhao Yun didn't know that Lu Ren knew everything about Zhao Yun's desire to defect to Liu Bei, so Zhao Yun felt that his current identity was just a wandering martial artist, and there was nothing to make Lu Ren, who was an official of Cao Jun, suspicious, so he could also walk with Lu Ren with peace of mind.
It was only said that it would soon get dark, and the group calculated the time and distance, knowing that it was a bit unrealistic to rush to Pengcheng for the night, so they found a suitable place near the road to stay temporarily. Most of them are military personnel, which is a common thing, so there is not much to say.
After a while, Lu Ren's small tent was set up, and Lu Ren felt that it was almost time to talk to Zhao Yun about "heavenly opportunities", so he invited Zhao Yun to his tent to drink.
The preparations that should be made were done, and Zhao Yun also sat down opposite Lu Ren. Although Zhao Yun is a general, he is very cautious and steady, so when Lu Ren tentatively asked Zhao Yun if he had seen Liu Bei after Gongsun Zhan's death, Zhao Yun was very surprised, but he was not in a hurry to say anything; As for Lu Ren, he was sorting out and perfecting his rhetoric in his head, so he didn't speak immediately. So, the two of them sat in the hall for a long time, but they were just bowing their heads to drink tea and ponder, but neither of them said a word.
After a long time, Lu Ren finally sorted out his thoughts, smiled at Zhao Yun and said, "Brother Zilong, in fact, when Uncle Liu Huang was forced by Lu Bu to temporarily vote for Duke Cao last year. Brother Zilong was mentioned in his conversation with me. As far as I know, Brother Zilong's gun and horse martial arts are on par with the two generals Guan and Zhang, and Uncle Huang is full of praise whenever he mentions it. And Lu Ren thought to himself, Brother Zilong has such extraordinary martial arts, why don't I recommend Brother Zilong to Cao Gong as a general. With Brother Zilong's martial arts and art of war, he will be able to be reused by Cao Gong, so as to become a generation of famous generals. It seems that Brother Zilong doesn't have to wander all over the world and have nowhere to call home. It's just that I don't know what Brother Zilong thinks? ”
Zhao Yun frowned when he heard this, and then bowed to Lu Ren and said, "Lu Servant shoots kindness, Zhao Yun understands it." It's just that today's Zhao Yun has nowhere to live, although he is floating all over the world. But he no longer has the intention of becoming an official, so he wants to take advantage of his white body to go to the south to see and gain more knowledge. If there is something to do, I will return to the north in the future to find relatives and return to my family. ”
Lu Ren smiled faintly. What he said just now was actually pure nonsense, but with Lu Ren's current position, it was a scene that had to be said. And after finishing speaking, Lu Ren secretly said in his heart: "It seems that it is right." Brother Yun had already made up his mind to visit and serve Liu Bei. There is no way, who made Liu Huangrease is the orthodoxy of the Han family. And you want to revive the Han Dynasty? Brother Yun's concept of the Han family is so important......
"After all, this is not a game in the "Three Kingdoms" series, in reality, if a person like Brother Yun has ambitions and ideals, it is not something that can be easily changed. But then again. If Brother Yun weren't such a person, where would he win the hearts of so many fans in later generations? Just for the sake of fame and fortune, but gave up his ambition and ideal of reviving the Han Dynasty, Brother Yun, then it is not our Brother Yun. ”
That's it. Lu Ren smiled at Zhao Yun again: "That's it! Brother Zilong, I won't say anything to tempt you anymore. In fact, I know that you have a master in your heart who wants to serve all his life and is determined to restore the Han Dynasty. And who this person is, we won't say for the time being. I just want to ask now, what do you think of the battle of Cao Yuan that is about to start, Brother Zilong? Do you want Yuan Shao to win, or do you want Cao Cao to win? ”
"This ......"
This question really stopped Zhao Yun. After a long time, Zhao Yuncai said with a twelve-point hesitation: "Lu Servant shoots, Shu Yun is rude, and he has no knowledge......
Lu Ren smiled: "Brother Zilong, you don't have to hide it from me. In my opinion, you are because I am now a staff member under Cao Gong's account, and there are many things that I can't say in this matter, right? Well, I'll help you try to talk about it. ”
Zhao Yun frowned, staring at Lu Ren deadly, wanting to see what Lu Ren would say.
Lu Ren took a sip of wine and cleared his throat before he said seriously: "The dispute between Cao Yuan and Cao Yuan is all about the name of loyalty on the bright side. Yuan Shao said that Cao Cao bullied the monarch and monopolized the power of the dynasty; Cao Cao said that Yuan Shao's wolf ambition was intended to represent the Han. It seems that they are all loyal ministers, but in my opinion, they are actually for their own ambitions. ”
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Yun stared at Lu Ren with wide eyes, and he couldn't believe that this could be the words of Cao Cao's subordinates.
Lu Ren smiled and threw a bombshell at Zhao Yun again: "Perhaps from the eyes of Brother Zilong, it is an unquestionable fact that Cao Cao monopolized the power of the dynasty and bullied the king, and Yuan Shaoxing's crusade against Cao Cao in the south was a move of loyalty, so even if Yuan Shao and Brother Zilong have a personal vendetta, it should not be calculated, so Brother Zilong is actually looking forward to Yuan Shao winning in the bottom of his heart, right?" ”
Zhao Yun hesitated for a long time when he heard this, and pondered for a long time, and finally nodded to Lu Ren and said, "Yes, Yun really has this intention in his heart. I want to ...... the third prince of the Yuan family."
Lu Ren waved his hand and interrupted Zhao Yun's words, "Brother Zilong, you are wrong. Yuan Shao's ancestors are his ancestors, and Yuan Shao himself is himself. In fact, looking at what Yuan Shao has been doing, it is not difficult to see that the wolf ambition in his heart is obvious. A few years ago, Yuan Shao conspired with Han Fu and others, wanting to support Liu Yu as the emperor of Youzhou, and if it succeeded, he would have his own dictatorship, in other words, he had long wanted to blackmail the Son of Heaven to order the princes.
"Maybe this is nothing, what really betrays his wolf ambition is that the puppet emperor Yuan Shu wanted to surrender to Yuan Shao when he was unable to support himself, and at the same time he wanted to give up the title of the puppet emperor to Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shao allowed it. If Yuan Shao was really a loyal minister of the Han family, how could he do such a thing? If it is really a loyal minister, not only can he not accept Yuan Shu, but he should also send troops to ask for it! ”
"Hey, this ......" Zhao Yun was stuck.
Lu Ren continued: "In fact, although the current saint is subject to Cao Cao, and Cao Cao's monopoly on the power of the dynasty is also true, but its intention is to be like the cause of the five hegemons of the Spring and Autumn Period and not in the emperor's title, and what you want to do also needs to be pretended to be an edict from the court...... Hey, I'm a little confused. Let's put it simply. Because the saint is still of great use to Cao Cao today, before Cao Cao's hegemony is completed, as long as the saint is in Cao Cao's hands, there will be absolutely nothing to do, and the bloodline of the Han family can also be preserved. But if the saint falls into the hands of Yuan Shao, who has the heart of being the emperor of the Han Dynasty, it can only be one result, that is, ......"
Speaking of this, Lu Ren stopped, stretched out his index finger and gestured at his neck.
After listening to these remarks, Zhao Yun pondered for a long time before he said to Lu Ren: "Lu Servant, although the meaning of your words is reasonable, it is not difficult to hear that you want Cao Ying to win this battle. And you say this to the cloud. Do you still want to persuade Yun to come out of the Cao family? ”
In fact, Zhao Yun still has a few words that he hasn't said, that is, you Lu Ren said it so beautifully, but in the end, you don't want to help Cao Cao do things and recruit people?
Lu Ren smiled and waved his hand and said, "Brother Zilong, I don't want you to be Cao Cao's intention. On the contrary, I would like to tell you where the Lord in your heart may be now, and I want to guide you to the same place. The reason why I am saying these things to you now is that I want you to tell him what I have said today when you meet him. ”
When Zhao Yun heard this, he immediately straightened his body. Anxiously asked: "Lu Servant shoots, do you know who you mean?" ”
Lu Renxin said Can I not know? But you can't say that, so Lu Ren sold Xuan Hu a little, first looked around with his probe out of the tent, and then returned to Zhao Yun. After stretching out his fingers and dipping them in wine, he wrote three words in front of Zhao Yun.
Zhao Yun was taken aback when he saw it, and even pressed his hand on the hilt of the sword, and said to Lu Ren very vigilantly: "Lu Servant shoots you......"
Lu Ren hurriedly waved his hand to Zhao Yun, if this Xuan Xuan Jin was oversold. It would be too unjust to provoke Zhao Yun to stab him with a sword: "Brother Wangzilong, don't doubt it, when you see him in the future, ask him about me." Brother Zilong, you understand. As for now, please don't be bored for a while, because I still have some very important words for Brother Zilong to remember so that I can tell them in time. ”
Zhao Yun hesitated and sat down again, and said to Lu Ren suspiciously: "Lu servant, you are Cao Cao's important minister, but why are you ......?"
Lu Ren smiled: "Didn't I say it just now?" It's okay to ask about this matter when Brother Zilong sees him. Now please don't doubt it, Brother Zilong. Brother Zilong, you must remember what I say next, otherwise the bloodline of the Han family will be cut off because of this. ”
Zhao Yun hesitated for a while, and finally nodded vigorously and said, "Okay, Lu Servant, please speak!" ”
Lu Ren sorted out his thoughts again and said: "I just said that Yuan Shaozhi will inevitably force the Holy Lord to abdicate and give way to the emperor, and then plot to kill the Holy Lord, so that the Han family will no longer have the power to return to heaven." At present, Cao Cao led the crowd to resist Yuan, although they are dog-eat-dog, and their hearts are bad, but if Cao Cao wins, he must also go north to uproot the foundation of the Yuan family, and this matter cannot be completed in more than five years.
And these five years are the five years of his foundation, and they are also the five years that he must have! Because today's Yuan Shao has been based in four states, its momentum is extremely prosperous. If Cao is defeated in this way, he will be swept across the whole land by his swift wind and thunder, and no one will be able to stop him for a while, and accordingly, he will have no buffer time to start his own foundation. ”
Zhao Yun pondered and digested these words before he said: "The meaning of Lu Servant's words, if it is simply put, if Cao Cao defeats Yuan in this battle, this gentleman still has time to find an opportunity to succeed; But if Yuan Shao wins Cao, there will be no turning point for the revival of the Han Dynasty? ”
Lu Ren nodded: "That's right." Whether this is right or wrong, Brother Zilong can think carefully before making a decision. In fact, when he was still in Xudu before, I warned him not to leave Xudu in a hurry, as long as he endured for a while, he even had a chance to save the saint directly. It's a pity that he didn't believe me because I was Cao Cao's staff. But that's okay, when the bloody edict was revealed, it also allowed him to avoid a catastrophe.
"Forget it, I won't mention him anymore about the old days. Brother Zilong, you remember what I just said, you must tell him to know, and then advise him not to act lightly no matter what! And when he asks, you can tell him plainly that I said these things. Oh, and let me remind you at the end that if he is in trouble and he really doesn't know where to go for a while, you can tell him two words...... Jing Xiang. (To be continued......)
