Chapter 394 A slight gaffe
Lu Ren didn't expect to chat with Zhang Xiu for a few words, but it led to such a topic, and he was a little interested for a while, and gossiped to Zhang Xiu with a slight evil smile: "Did the general follow the example of Sima Xiangru in the past and ask this woman to be his wife?" ”
Men, when they sit together and drink, chat, fart, and brag, it's really common to talk about topics like this. And Lu Ren's words were originally just a joke, but unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu's face changed suddenly, but he immediately shook his head and smiled reluctantly: "If you don't want to embroider, you can't ...... it."
Lu Ren was stunned, and his gaze at Zhang Xiu was a little weird, and he said in his heart, why did you have a "you can't do it if you don't want to"? It is said that your Zhang Xiu's conditions are not bad, and to put it mildly, they are all the second generation of the military who belong to this era. In this era of "having a gun is the king of grass", what is so difficult about mentioning the family? When Sun Jian married Mrs. Wu, wasn't Mrs. Wu worried that the gun in Sun Jian's hand would endanger the clan before marrying Sun Jian?
However, Zhang Xiuzhi seemed to be reminded of Lu Ren's sad past, looked up at the moon by himself, and continued: "At that time, Xiu was in the year of the weak crown, and he was no more than a servant of fighting food, and his family was quite poor. And she is the daughter of a wealthy family, and her family is extremely wealthy. Although her parents were not snobs, they were really unwilling to marry her to me, who could be said to have no longevity at the time. Later, Bian Zhang and Han Sui troubled Liangzhou, Jincheng Koji Sheng attacked and killed Zu Li Chang Liu Jun, embroidered and waited for the opportunity to kill the victory, luckily it was a matter of importance in the county, and my uncle Ji Wenzhi also led troops to come to help......"
Speaking of this, Zhang Xiu seemed to remember something, and quickly stopped talking, but the person still shook his head a few times. But Lu Ren reacted immediately, stared at Zhang Xiu with round eyes in shock, and asked in a low voice tentatively after a while: "The beautiful woman the general said, is it, is it...... Uncle Ling's wife, Zou? ”
“!!!”
Zhang Xiu was so shocked that she almost screamed out loud. Finally, he reacted relatively quickly, forcibly suppressed the words that had rushed to his throat, and then asked back in a low voice: "How did Lu and Lu Servant know about it?" ”
“……”
Lu Ren was speechless for a long time, and shook his head for a while before he whispered: "General, you yourself just said it too clearly. ”
"Yes, yes?" Zhang Xiu shook her head a few times in embarrassment, and sighed: "Alas, embroidery is speechless!" ”
Lu Renxin said that you are not a gaffe. If you knew what the future generations were talking about the relationship between you and the Zou family in the Internet forum, you would have to find a crack in the ground to get into, and I just happened to run into it.
Looking at Zhang Xiu again, he lowered his head and was silent for a long time, then suddenly raised his head, and whispered with a heavy sincerity in his expression: "Lu Servant, can you keep this secret for Xiu?" Not for anything else, just because people are terrible! The wife of an uncle is really a corrupt thing, and although she and I have mutual affection in the old days. However, due to the common morality of people, even if my uncle is dead, I can only wait and see from afar, and there has never been anything deviant, and we have always been innocent of each other. Only occasionally do I listen to her music outside her widowed courtyard, but that's about it. Alas, why did my uncle forcibly marry her? If it were my brother's generation, I would dare to marry her! ”
“……”
Lu Ren was speechless again. But he could only shake his head, stretched out his hand and patted Zhang Xiu's shoulder and said, "General, please rest assured." Lu Ren will definitely keep his mouth shut for you in this matter. In fact, in fact, I may have the same deep understanding of this person's terrible words as you. And seriously, I've had similar experiences to you. ”
"Huh!?" Zhang Xiu opened her mouth wide and said, "Lu Servant shot you!?" ”
Lu Ren smiled unconsciously, lay down again, and said, "General, you probably know Miss Mi Zhen of the Mi family, right?" She is the little sister of Xuzhou who is not engaged in Mizhu, not to mention being born beautiful. People are also very smart and capable. Truth be told, she's what I'm in this era...... Oh, I mean, the girl I first fell in love with when I came back from my studies of art was also very interested in her, and to be honest. If I hadn't joined Cao Gong by mistake, I might have joined the Mi family.
"But I never thought that she would be forced by Lu Bu, and went to Xu Du to defect to me as a last resort, in order to avoid Lu Bu's forced marriage with the Xuzhou Mi clan for profit, and at that time she only relied on me to repay the old kindness that their Mi clan had taken me in and treated me very well. Funny to say, although she and I had a bit of an old friendship, she was forced by the situation to threaten that if I dared to think anything wrong of her, she would kill herself immediately, and my reputation and career would be ruined. ”
Zhang Xiu smiled: "I see." I have also heard some rumors about this matter, and there are rumors in the market that there is an indecent relationship between you, but there has never been a discussion in the temple. Come to think of it, if Lu Servant really had something unclean with her, I'm afraid that he would have lost his official position for a long time, right? But if it's just a rumor, it's not a big deal. ”
Lu Ren smiled faintly: "But the world is unpredictable, the relationship between me and the Mi family is getting closer and closer, and I have been with her for a long time, so it can be regarded as a little long-term love...... It's a pity that because my official position was getting higher at that time, I was already the pillar of the Lu and Mi clans in Xudu, so I must not do anything that hinders my career, otherwise I am afraid that the two clans will be destroyed in my hands, and she also understands this truth.
"Later, I usually dared to make some very excessive jokes between me and her, and even I dared to touch her a few times, and she would lose her temper for no reason when she saw that I was very close to a girl, but we never dared to take a step over Lei Chi...... Hehe, I remember that I used to be a womanizer who wanted to be overthrown when I saw a beautiful woman, but now it's like this. People, there will always be too much helplessness, and you can't really have nothing to worry about! ”
Zhang Xiu sighed: "Lu Servant, you are content." At least she's still by your side, can laugh and play with you, and if necessary, she at least has a defection, and can call you Mr. Where is it like me with her? I don't dare mess with her even if I want to...... Hey, don't mention her. Lu Servant shot a little bit of the sadness that you brought out in the song, could it be said that it was for her? ”
Lu Ren's expression darkened, and he sighed and shook his head: "No, it's not for Mi Zhen, but for my family Wan'er." ”
Zhang Xiu was stunned: "Wan'er? I have heard a lot about it. But hasn't Wan'er always been by Lu Servant's side to shoot you? But the song of Lu Servant shooting you is very sad......"
Lu Ren paused for a moment and asked: "Wancheng is not far from Xu, why do you know nothing about what happened in Xu Duzhong, general?" ”
Zhang Xiu shook his head and said: "The city of Xudu is very well guarded, and the fine work sent by Mr. Jia can only go back and forth once in two months, so I don't know much about the current affairs of Xudu. Besides, this kind of thing is not an important military and political matter, so how can I investigate it in detail? ”
"So that's ......" Lu Ren slowly lowered his head, suddenly slammed his fist on the eaves, and said hatefully: "Just a few months ago, Yuan Shao's third son, Yuan Shang, killed my family Wan'er!" ”
“!!!” Zhang Xiu was secretly surprised.
Lu Ren turned his head to look at Zhang Xiu, gritted his teeth and said, "General Zhang, let me tell you the truth, what I am doing now is to use the strength of Cao Gong to avenge my family Wan'er!" Do you think I'm actually taking advantage of you? ”
"This ......"
Lu Ren lowered his head and said almost word by word: "I almost went crazy that day, it was Wen Ji and Lao Guo who desperately made me sober...... How great is Yuan Shao's momentum? If I only ride alone, where can I avenge Wan'er? And if I just want to assassinate Yuan Shang by myself, even if I can succeed, I will inevitably die.
"If I die, the people close to me such as Wen Ji, Mi Zhen, Cheng, Xin, and Lan will have no support, so won't I indirectly kill my close ones? After thinking about it, the best way is to help Cao Gong defeat Yuan Shao and make the Yuan family a lost dog, so what's the harm in killing Yuan Shang at that time? ”
At this point, Lu Rencai felt that his words seemed to be too inappropriate in front of Zhang Xiu, so he quickly shook his head and said: "But General Zhang, please believe me, although I helped Cao Gong succeed because I wanted to avenge Wan'er, what I said to you during the banquet was the truth, and I didn't lie to you." Although Yuan Shao is powerful, he is only a man of cloth after all, one does not know how to use people, two does not know how to use soldiers, and three does not know how to use strategy......
"In fact, this matter, you might as well see it as a big gamble, if you bet on Yuan Shao, you will have nothing if you lose, even if you win, it is just a small profit; But if you bet on Cao Gong, if you lose, you will have nothing, but if you win, you will inevitably be rich. Since losing will be the same loss, why don't you just gamble bigger!? ”
Zhang Ji was silent for a while, and suddenly said to Lu Ren: "Lu servant, embroidery can't help but want to ask, if embroidery descends to Yuan, how about it?" ”
Lu Ren's heart jumped, and he said that I was also a little uncalm when I mentioned Wan'er's matter, and it seemed that I had said something that shouldn't have been said, but now I can only find a way to remedy it. But fortunately, Lu Ren was very well prepared in advance, clicked on the eyebrow to activate the chip, called up the corresponding speech and looked at it, and then said to Zhang Xiu unhurriedly: "It's okay." However, if Yuan Shao came to win over the general, he just wanted the general to attack Xu Du and be a pawn for him Yuan Shao. But general, even if you want to send troops to attack Xu now, do you have enough money and food on hand to meet the needs of the army? ”
This stick really hit Zhang Xiu's seven inches, and Zhang Xiu was dumb at that time. And Lu Ren didn't dare to slack off, so he immediately picked up the words, not giving Zhang Xiu time to think: "Maybe you can ask Yuan Shao to support some grain and grass, but with all due respect, do you think the grain and grass in Yecheng, Hebei can be sent to the general through Cao Gong's subordinates safe and sound?" ”
Zhang Xiu shook her head, and there was a slight sweat on her forehead...... (To be continued......)
