Chapter Twenty-Nine: Hidden Worries
"Sun Ce is dead?" Mu Ma Po, Lu Bu looked at the latest information from Chang'an in his hand, slightly stunned, among the princes, he was probably the last to learn the news, at this time it has been almost half a month since Sun Ce was assassinated and died. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Lord, isn't Sun Ce very powerful? Why should the lord care so much? Thinking of Sun Ce, who was embarrassed under Lu Bu's hands and couldn't even keep a woman, Xiong Kuohai pouted disdainfully.
If there is anyone in this world who knows Lu Bu's strength best, it must be Xiong Kuhai, since he joined Lu Bu's command, he is Lu Bu's personal guard, and he is also a top general, and he can clearly feel that Lu Bu is becoming very powerful unconsciously, and the suffocating sense of oppression is gradually increasing, but Lu Bu himself has not paid much attention to it.
At the beginning, Lu Bu was not so strong, if Sun Ce met Lu Bu again, Xiong Kuohai dared to pat his chest and guarantee that whether Sun Ce could survive the first three is debatable.
"It's early!" Lu Bu frowned and muttered.
"What?" Xiong Kuohai looked at Lu Bu puzzled.
"Nothing." Shaking his head, Lu Bu said with a smile: "Fighting for the world is not just a fighting general, otherwise King Xiang would not have killed himself back then." ”
Lu Bu vaguely remembered that Sun Ce's death should have been assassinated almost a year after the Battle of Guandu began, and now, the time has been advanced by at least half a year, and at this time, if according to history or deduction, Liu Bei has just escaped from Xudu and then gained a foothold in Xiapi, but this drama has been staged a few months ago.
Has his arrival begun to affect the trajectory of history?
If you think about it, these things don't seem to have much to do with you, but they are always related, but even if they are? I have never followed the course of history, if I entered the city according to history or deduction, I should have been hanged on the White Gate Tower on the day I appeared in this time and space.
"My lord, the military advisor is here." Xiong Kuohai's words interrupted Lu Bu's train of thought, and he turned his head to look, but saw that Li Ru had already appeared in the camp tent at some point.
"Wen Wei is here?" Lu Bu smiled and beckoned Li Ru to sit down.
"My lord, this time Confucianism came to bring good news to my lord." Li Ru and Lu Bu sat down separately, looked at Lu Bu and smiled.
"Cao Cao sent someone to negotiate peace?" Lu Bu raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Rudao.
"The Lord is wise." When Li Ru heard this, he shook his head with a wry smile and said.
"With Cao Cao's current situation, even if he doesn't get around, he will definitely try to keep us neutral, it's not hard to guess, I care more about Yuan Shao's attitude." Lu Bu sneered, although Cao Cao far surpasses Lu Bu in terms of population, army and number of generals at the moment, but in the game with Yuan Shao, Cao Cao is at an absolute disadvantage in any aspect, and if he still wants to take a tough stance on Lu Bu in this situation, then Cao Cao will not be able to come to this point.
"Yuan Shao?" A sneer flashed in Li Ru's eyes: "I sent someone to send some grain and grass to carry the baggage, but I also sent Hanoi General Zhang Hetun to the party." ”
"Normal." Lu Bu is not angry, Yuan Shao now occupies an absolute strength, even if he fights on two fronts, he also has the confidence to fight, if Yuan Shao lowers his posture like Cao Cao, Lu Bu will have to worry about whether there is any conspiracy in it.
"The lord is not curious about what Cao Cao sent?" Li Ru said with a smile.
"It's nothing more than a high-ranking official." For what Cao Cao can get now, Lu Bu really doesn't look very well, at least in terms of grain and grass, Cao Cao is absolutely impossible to send.
"This time, the lord guessed wrong." Li Ru said with a smile.
"Oh?" Lu Bu looked at Li Ru in surprise: "Don't tell me, Cao Cao really sent me grain and grass." ”
"Although it is not, it is more useful to the lord than grain and grass." Li Ru said with a smile.
"Oh?" Lu Bu turned his head in surprise and looked at Li Ru: "Wen is worried and straightforward." ”
"The daughter of the first emperor, the princess Liu Yun of Wannian, the Son of Heaven personally gave the marriage, and ordered Cao Cao's general Cai Yang to personally escort it, and now it has arrived in Luoyang, and it will not be long before it will be sent to Chang'an, congratulations to the lord, who is about to become a relative of the emperor." Li Ru smiled.
"Imperial relatives?" Lu Bu raised his eyebrows slightly, and quickly understood the meaning, don't look at the Han family's Yu Wei is not there, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, in most people's hearts, the Han family is still orthodox, Liu Bei played a brand of the Han family's clan, how long has he been swaggering, but only when he is really recognized by the royal family and won the name of the imperial uncle, he began to be favored by the family one after another, and finally gained a firm foothold in Jingzhou.
The identity of an imperial relative can definitely enhance Lu Bu's weight in the hearts of the family, and it can also whitewash Lu Bu's previous reputation a lot to a certain extent, but it is just ......
"Let the public platform be responsible for the reception, in the old palace site, a palace will be renovated for the princess to live, and now it is the time for a decisive battle with Han Sui, so I can't go to meet Luan in person." After being silent for a long time, Lu Bu shook his head and said.
"Lord......" Li Ru obviously felt that Lu Bu was not too enthusiastic about this marriage, and after hesitating for a moment, he still asked: "I don't know if the lord is suspicious?" If the lord becomes a royal concubine, people of insight in the world will inevitably come one after another, and the lord's hegemony can be expected. ”
Lu Bu sighed and said to Xiongkuohai: "Hold the tent, no one is allowed to approach!" ”
"Whoa!" Hearing this, Xiong Kuohai bowed down to answer the order, and strode out of the camp tent, guarding the outside of the camp like a statue.
"Wen Wei, what's going on with the academy?" Lu Bu didn't directly say the princess's question, but asked casually.
"It is already on the right track, under Fang Yun's lobbying, coupled with the lord's method, many celebrities and scholars have agreed to enter the academy to teach in order to live a better life, and the first batch of students have begun to study, most of them are after the meritorious soldiers of our army." At the mention of the academy, Li Ru said with a smile on his face.
"Wen Wei Ke remembers, why did we set up a college?" Lu Bu said quietly.
In this period, to dominate the world, the family is an unavoidable hurdle, Lu Bu also knows that when he grows stronger in the future and enters the Central Plains, it is impossible to kill the family in the world, and the original establishment of Chang'an Academy, and even a series of plans after that, are all to cultivate a mechanism that can make the cold family and the family confront, Chang'an Academy is a starting point, and after the printing and papermaking technology matures in the future, it is the time to really shake the dominance of the family, but this mechanism is still a prototype and is still very fragile. Once a large number of families intervene at this time, it is easy to completely crush and destroy this mechanism.
The Maison is available and must be used, but it is too early for the Maison to enter the game.
Li Ru was stunned when he heard this, and then he understood what Lu Bu really meant, and couldn't help laughing, and smiled at Lu Bu: "Lord, forgive Confucianism." ”
"Speak!" Lu Bu glanced at Li Ru and nodded.
"At present, there are many families in the world, and with the previous reputation and practice of the lord, even if he has the name of the royal family, in a short period of time, in addition to the wealthy families in the Xiliang area, it is difficult to get the family to work, as for the wealthy families in the Xiliang area, after this war, it is difficult to pose a threat to the lord, we can take this opportunity to involve these wealthy families in the three school plan, and when the time is ripe in the future, the day our army enters the Central Plains, it is the family to join, as long as the lord reigns for one day, no one can shake the three schools."
Li Ru's words are very tactful, but the meaning is also very straightforward, the current Lu Bu, even if he has the status of a relative of the emperor, but because of his poor reputation before, and the pattern of the Central Plains family has been formed, it is impossible for the family to invest in a big way, Lu Bu's worries are a little unfounded.
"It's always good to pay more attention, and you should step up when you learn three things." Lu Bu nodded, maybe he was too worried, but what he wanted was to snatch the family's monopoly on knowledge from the family and promote it to the whole people.
