"Now that it has been completely destroyed, it can only show that he has become disheartened and has the intention of no longer becoming an official."

Listening to Guo Jia's words, Cao Cao's brows furrowed again, and he casually picked up a scroll of Jian Chun again, looked at it a few times, and said: "Fengxiao, Lu Yihao said such a sentence today, saying, 'These things should not have appeared here in the first place, and they should be returned to heaven'." ”

Guo Jia's eyes flashed, and he shook his head lightly and said, "It seems that he was frustrated, and he finally leaked his mouth." ”

Cao Cao closed Jian Chun and said in a deep voice: "Fengxiao, no matter what, you have to keep him for Lone." Lone's expedition is imminent, and he can't take care of his affairs for a while, and if he doesn't wait for a while to wait for this matter a little bit, it is inconvenient for Lone to use him again. If he stayed in Xudu in peace, it would naturally be the best, if he wanted to go elsewhere......"

When he said this, Cao Cao's eyes had already revealed a little ruthlessness. What kind of person is Guo Jiana, how could he not understand what Cao Cao meant, so he hurriedly said to Cao Cao: "Don't worry, my lord, this kid has always had no ambitions, and what he wants most is to live a peaceful life, and it is not difficult to give him some farmhouses so that he can live here." ”

The ruthlessness in Cao Cao's eyes gradually dissipated, and he nodded to Guo Jia at the same time. With Cao Cao's temperament, he is reluctant to kill a talent like Lu Ren, but the premise is that he can be used by Cao Cao, at least he must stay here with Cao Cao honestly and not defect to the command of other candidates. If Lu Ren wanted to leave, then Cao Cao would rather kill Lu Ren than run to other candidates. In Cao Cao's own words, "Those who can use it for me will use it thickly; Kill those who can't be used for me." What's more, the current Lu Ren's origin is a bit mysterious, and Cao Cao's view of things is also particularly prominent in Lu Ren's body.

"Fengxiao, you go to Yihao immediately, in front of the Son of Heaven and Zhuqing, Gu has promised to grant him a field house, you go and do all these things...... By the way, let him come to Lone's place for a drink. ”

――――――――――――――――――――

Emperor Liu Xieye had left, and Lu Ren was looking at the flowers and plants in the courtyard.

Wan'er came to Lu Ren's side and said softly, "Lord, Xiaolan and the three of them have already gone to Aunt Ding." ”

Lu Ren nodded and did not speak.

It was the warm spring at the end of February, and the flowers in the courtyard were already in full bloom. Wan'er looked around the courtyard, smiled and said to Lu Ren: "Suddenly it became so quiet, Wan'er was a little uncomfortable. ”

It is indeed very quiet, the people of Mi and Xun have already left before dawn, only Lu Ren, Wan'er and a little boy have stayed. Now the little children have gone to the Fuyou Yishe again, and only Lu Ren and Wan'er are here in this big mansion.

Lu Ren sighed and said, "Yes, it's really quiet...... In the past, we could only be quiet when we were busy, but now we are quiet with nothing to do. It's strange to say, I didn't really want to be an official all along, but now that the official is really gone, I don't know what to do. Anyway, anyway, when I go back to the Cao Guild, I will give me the house and field, and we will have no worries about food and clothing, so it is not bad to give ourselves a long vacation for a long time. ”

Wan'er bit her lip and hesitated: "Lord, since the Son of Heaven intends to reinstate you as an official, why do you want to resign?" ”

Lu Ren turned his head: "Wan'er, why are you asking this?" ”

Wan'er lowered her head and responded, "Actually...... Wan'er also hopes that the Lord can have a good future. ”

"......" Lu Ren stretched out his hand and twisted it lightly on Wan'er's face, and said with a smile: "My silly Wan'er, this matter is not so simple, it's better not to ask if you are a girl." I can only tell you that I am a little afraid of these things in the court. If I am reinstated, someone will stab me in the back at any time, so we can still hide as far as we can. Let's just live our own ordinary little life. When it's almost time, I'll take you away. ”

Wan'er hesitated for a moment and said, "No matter where the Lord goes, Wan'er must stay by the Lord's side." But after we left, what about Ah Cheng, Ah Xin, and Xiao Lan? ”

Lu Ren said: "I can't take them away, of course I have to stay." But before I leave, I will leave them with everything I can, and what they can do in the future is not out of my control. And then again, these little kids can't just hide under my wings all the time, can they? ”

Wan'er smiled faintly and didn't say anything more, just quietly accompanied Lu Ren's side.

I don't know how long it has been, Guo Jia's voice came from the courtyard, Lu Ren turned his head and smiled at Wan'er: "The person who sent the house and the land is here...... Wan'er, do you still have wine? ”

――――――――――――――――――――

In the evening, Guo Jia left Lu Ren's mansion, but when Guo Jia was leaving, he got an ox cart and transported all the wine that Lu Ren had left. Before parting, Guo Jia said to Lu Ren earnestly: "Yihao, listen to my brother's advice, don't leave the realm of Xudu." ”

Lu Ren's heart moved, and he said tentatively in a joking tone: "If I can't get along, of course I have to go back to my hometown, otherwise will I really stay here in Xudu and beg along the street to eat?" ”

It is undeniable that Lu Ren really wants to play with Guo Jia This kind of cautious eye is too tender, of course, Guo Jia's words are still very vague: "With your ability, you can use it to beg for a living?" But I have to warn you, the road to Wu in the south has not yet been wiped out, and if you don't know what to do, I'm afraid the past can only be a dead end. In contrast, wouldn't it be better for you to stay here in Xudu and live a leisurely life? Why take that risk? ”

Lu Ren actually understood the meaning of Guo Jia's words, but it was better to pretend to be stupid at this time: "Old Guo, you are right. Anyway, I now have a field, a land and a house, and I can mix it very well in a small life, but if I really go back to Wu, there will be nothing. ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, and each said goodbye. At this time, although Lu Ren had a smile on his face, a cold sweat broke out on his back. What kind of talent strategy Cao Cao has, Lu Ren is very clear, but Lu Ren never thinks that he is the kind of talent who can enter Cao Cao's "friend list" or "blacklist".

After all, in the past few years under Cao Cao's command, the only place where he has performed well is just farming, and in Lu Ren's opinion, as long as he is a diligent and not so stupid person, he can do a good job. Not to mention anything else, aren't Zao Yi and Ren Jun like this? So Lu Ren really couldn't figure out how he could be on Cao Cao's list.

But since Guo Jia has already told himself these words vaguely, it is better to be careful no matter what, maybe Cao Cao's spies are secretly staring at him now. Thinking of Cao Cao's spy again, Lu Ren subconsciously looked around...... But immediately, Lu Ren smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying in his heart that don't be too suspicious, the grass and trees are all soldiers.

When he sent the field house to Lu Ren just now, Guo Jiadu had already made it clear that Cao Cao would reactivate Lu Ren after a while, and under this premise, as long as Lu Ren didn't do anything that made Cao Cao feel sensitive, there should be no problem with his small life. Since this is the case, Lu Ren adjusted his mentality, it is really not bad to give himself a few months off. There are still more than two years to wear it back, and the grandson who has been pretending to be for several years, what does it matter if the grandson is pretending to be two years old?

After frowning and thinking about it again, Lu Ren said to Wan'er: "I'll send you to live with Fuyouyi House first, and then I have to go to see Cao Gong." ”

Wan'er answered and followed behind Lu Ren. And Lu Ren secretly said in his heart: "He's really tired!" People come one by one, and see one by one...... I hope to go see Lao Cao now, he won't give me any small shoes. ”

――――――――――――――――――――

At nightfall, the courtyard of Caofu.

Lu Ren followed the door and just stepped into the courtyard, and saw Cao Cao sitting on the edge of the pavilion with a glass of wine at this moment, a pair of stinky feet without shoes hanging two feet from the ground and dangling constantly.

Cao Cao also saw Lu Ren, and before Lu Ren could salute before he could get closer, Cao Cao beckoned to Lu Ren and said, "Yihao is here!" Don't be polite, come up and sit. ”

Lu Ren hesitated for a moment and went to the shoe to climb the stairs, and sat opposite Cao Cao. Cao Cao motioned for all his attendants to retreat, and whispered a few words to Xu Chu, the ace bodyguard. After a while, only Cao Cao and Lu Ren were left sitting opposite each other in this small courtyard. Cao Cao picked up the wine spoon and sighed lightly while scooping the wine: "Yihao, when was the last time you and I sat alone and drank together?" ”

Lu Ren shook his head and said, "I don't remember much." ”

Cao Cao nodded lightly and greeted Lu Ren: "This incident is really wronged by you, I am alone and disappointed by you, and I feel ashamed!" Come, this cup should be a gift of reparation to you, do it! ”

Cao Cao's words really made Lu Ren a little unsure of how to deal with it for a while, and he responded too impassionedly, making him too hypocritical; The response is too realistic, and it seems that he is too philistine. After all, Cao Cao is not Guo Jia, and it is okay to make some jokes in front of Guo Jia, but if he says something wrong in front of Cao Cao, it will be difficult to say what will happen later.

A glass of wine was slowly pouring down his throat, and Lu Ren was taking this moment to make a little statement. After thinking about it, Lu Ren still decided that it would be more appropriate to make himself appear a philistine, after all, he was a marketman in the eyes of many people.

After another cup of belly, Cao Cao played with the wine glass and groaned: "Lone doesn't go around any bends with you." Lone can see that you have a very light view of being removed from your official position this time, and you also don't want to be a member of the public again...... Yihao, the husband should be fortunate to be able to leave a name in the world, and you obviously have the talent to leave a name in history, why are you willing to be bland? Do you want to learn from those sour and rotten Confucians, and exist in the world with a pure and high posture? ”
