A few moments later, outside Xuchang City, Lu Ren and Liu Bei, who had different expressions, were saying goodbye.

"Lu Servant shoots, I am forced to be helpless and offended, and I hope for Haihan! If there is a day to worship and respect in the future, be prepared to come to the door in person to apologize! ”

At this moment, Lu Ren glanced at the army that was slowly advancing on the other side of the road, and could only sigh helplessly: "Uncle Huang, I think we should probably talk to each other...... There will be no time in the future. ”

Liu Bei was stunned when he heard this, and Lu Ren sighed secretly in his heart after seeing Liu Bei's expression, thinking that the matter had come to an end, it was better to simply do this "good person" to the end. The main reason is that Mi Zhen has not come back in Xuzhou, in case Liu Bei returns to Xuzhou and thinks about it inappropriately, it will not be good if Mi Zhen is embarrassed.

So Lu Ren sighed lightly: "Uncle Huang, you must fight this pseudo-emperor Yuan Shu, because only after you break the Yuan Shu can you justifiably drive Zhu Ling and Lu Zhao back to Xu Du." And then...... Uncle Huang, although you can take Xuzhou as your home, let me tell you that Xuzhou can't stop Cao Gong's army, so you have to make plans as soon as you arrive in Xuzhou.

"In a critical situation, Uncle Huang can go to Yuan Shao, but you have to pay attention to your defeat of Yuan Shu, don't let Yuan Shao lose face. Lu Ren thought that in this matter, the emperor's uncle should ask Mr. Zheng Xuan to come forward and write to Yuan Shao...... In fact, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu have long been out of harmony and have been fighting secretly, but they are brothers after all, and at a critical time, there must be a plausible excuse to take in Uncle Huang. To put it simply, Uncle Huang, you have to find a step for Yuan Shao to go down, who made Yuan Shao so good-looking? ”

Liu Bei stared at Lu Ren silently for a while before bowing to Lu Ren again and said, "Lu Servant shoots good words, be prepared and keep them in mind!" ”

Lu Ren waved his hand, shook his head again, and said with a wry smile: "That's it...... Uncle Huang, give me back Wan'er and Wenji. ”

Liu Bei smiled indifferently: "Such a big event, how dare you forget it?" Please come with Lu Servant. ”

There was a small grass pavilion on the side of the road about two hundred steps away from where Lu Ren and Liu Bei were talking. Earlier, the grass pavilion was surrounded by blinds to temporarily fill the pavilion walls. At this moment, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are each holding their own blades. led dozens of guards to guard outside the grass pavilion, and through the curtain gap of the blinds, you could see Cai Yan lying at the desk in the pavilion and reading, Wan'er looked at Lu Ren with a worried face, and sometimes looked back at Cai Yan.

Liu Bei led Lu Ren to the pavilion, first nodded lightly to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and then said to Cai Yan in the pavilion quite politely: "Mrs. Cai, there are many offends between the two virtuous brothers, and I hope that Cai will be Haihan." Now it is ready, if Cai's book has not yet been written. Please put pen to paper. ”

Cai Yan in the pavilion was silent for a moment, and suddenly called to Lu Ren: "Yihao, you go into the pavilion to pick up the sticker and transfer it to General Zhang." ”

Lu Ren sighed, and seeing that Guan Yu and Zhang Fei had already moved out of the way, he slowly stepped forward and opened the pavilion curtain and entered the pavilion. first glanced at Wan'er and Cai Yan, and said softly, "It's okay", and then took the sticker and turned out of the pavilion to hand it to Zhang Fei. Maybe he was a little angry, Lu Ren snorted at the heavy nose of the three brothers Liu Guan and Zhang, and said, "Go all the way." Lu Renshu is not far away! ”

Liu Bei smiled casually, and after respectfully making a salute, he led Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to get on the horse and gallop away, leaving Lu Ren there to bow his head and shake his head and sigh, and secretly said in his heart: "Alas." What the fuck is this? I didn't expect that I was busy and in the end, I was still busy in vain. Forget it, just do what you want, it seems that I shouldn't be in charge, it's useless for me to take care of it......"

Let's not talk about how Lu Ren sighed. It was only said that the three brothers Liu Guan and Zhang were fighting horses, and Guan Yu seemed to be in a very bad mood at the moment, and a pair of silkworm eyebrows were wrinkled tightly all the time. Liu Bei accidentally turned his head to see the look on Guan Yu's face. But he also sighed heavily and said, "Yun Chang, do you think that my brother's actions today are detracting from my good man's style?" ”

Guan Yu also sighed when he heard this: "Although my brother has this intention, I also know that my eldest brother has no choice but to do it under such circumstances. But big brother, do you think this Lu Ren is loyal or traitorous? ”

Liu Bei shook his head and said: "It's because I can't figure out his bottom that I want to leave Xu Du more and more." Now that he has left the promise, his brother's heart is at ease, and then he looks back and thinks about the plan he told his brother...... What a pity! If he is really a loyal minister, then his strategy is the best policy; But if he is a traitor, my three brothers are afraid that they will die without a place to bury. It's strange, how did he know about the Holy Bloody Edict? Moreover, he also knew the seven righteousness of the edict at all, and his uncle Dong Cheng would never find him to gather the righteousness, so it was naturally impossible to show him this bloody edict...... Could it be that he is really a close person to the Son of Heaven? ”

Just when he was puzzled, Zhang Fei who was on the other side shouted excitedly: "Wonderful, wonderful!" This kind of pen work, Juanxiu hidden strength, horizontal folding is powerful but not losing the roundness, the whole body is neat but like flowing water, without the slightest edges and corners. And written on this snow paper, the font is even more beautiful. I have long heard that this Cai Yan's pen font has long been above Cai Shizhong in the past, and it really deserves its name when I see it today! I will definitely collect this scroll and copy it in the future! ”

“……”

Liu Bei and Guan Yu were speechless together. Looking at each other, Liu Bei shook his head and smiled: "Yide will only show his elegant side when he sees the wonderful brushwork." That's it, since we have left Xu, we will not take the matter of Xu Du to heart for the time being! Two virtuous brothers, hurry up and catch up with the army, and turn back to Xuzhou as soon as possible to make plans! ”

――――――

In the grass pavilion next to the road, Lu Renzheng watched Liu Bei's brothers go away with his arms in his arms. In the midst of the sigh, Cai Yan had already left the pavilion and came to Lu Ren's side and whispered, "Yihao......"

Lu Ren turned around and glanced at Cai Yan, stretched out his hand to hold Cai Yan's hand and said, "Are you okay?" When Guan Yu and Zhang Fei rushed to the two of you, my soul was scared! ”

Cai Yan has received a good education since he was a child...... It should be said that Cai Yan is a woman who grew up in the edification of "etiquette". In the concept of "etiquette", even if Lu Ren and Cai Yan are already husband and wife, it would be unseemly for Lu Ren to hold Cai Yan's hand in front of the public.

It stands to reason that Cai Yan should remind Lu Ren softly, and then withdraw his hand, but for some reason, Cai Yan was reluctant to withdraw his hand when he felt the warmth coming from Lu Ren's hand, but let Lu Ren hold it tightly. Heard Lu Ren's question. Cai Yan silently lowered his head and said softly, "It's okay...... Guan Yu and Zhang Fei looked very rough and terrifying when they intercepted me, but they were quite polite, so although I was secretly restrained by them, they didn't do anything to me. Just ......"

Saying that, Cai Yan glanced at Wan'er, who was sitting in the pavilion with her head down, with some concern, and then glanced at Lu Ren. Lu Ren was also a little helpless about this, so he smiled at Cai Yan, entered the pavilion and sat next to Wan'er, gently knocked his fingers on Wan'er's forehead a few times, and asked softly, "Wan'er, what's wrong with you?" Intimidated? ”

Wan'er glanced up at Lu Ren. But he immediately lowered his head again and asked, "Lord, did Wan'er ruin your big thing?" ”

Even though Lu Ren was unwilling, now he could only pout helplessly and said: "A bad thing is a bad thing, but to be honest, it can't be regarded as a bad thing." Seriously, this may be the so-called providence in the dark, right? Or maybe it can be said that the will of heaven cannot be violated...... Alas, so is it providential! This shouldn't be what I should do, even if I'm strong, it's useless. Okay, let's go back. ”

Wan'er said, "Lord, I'm sorry...... Actually, you really want to do great things. Why worry about me? ”

Lu Ren said: "Didn't I say it just now? This is not something I should have taken care of, and I am asking for trouble by forcing my head. As for you and Wen Ji suddenly appearing, maybe God is reminding me and telling me not to meddle. If you have to take care of it. People close to me are bound to be hurt in ways they shouldn't have suffered, so ...... It's just as it should be. ”

Wan'er raised her head slightly, looked at Lu Ren and said softly: "The people close to the Lord ......"

Wan'er bit her lip as she spoke, but her eyes drifted to the outside of the pavilion. Cai Yan, who had been looking at them, but had a little loneliness on his face. And at this time, an indescribable sense of loss. also gradually surged into Wan'er's heart.

It is undeniable that Wan'er is a simple and kind good girl, and if she really wants to be put on the shelf in modern society, I don't know how many men will snatch her head and bleed. But as long as you are a human being, you will have shortcomings, and Wan'er's shortcomings are......

In Wan'er's opinion, although she is not bad in terms of appearance, she is just a middle-class posture, and in terms of ability, she feels as if she has never been able to help Lu Ren. This problem was nothing earlier when Lu Ren was just a minor official, and there was only one woman by her side, Wan'er, but as Lu Ren's official position became higher and higher, and the women around her appeared one after another, this problem became more and more heavy in Wan'er's heart.

In terms of appearance, Wan'er asked herself that she was far inferior to Cai Yan, Minchan, and Mi Zhen; In terms of official affairs, Cai Yan can help Lu Ren sort out the literature, but Wan'er can't help; When it comes to managing family finances, Mi Zhen can help Lu Ren manage the industry, but Wan'er still can't help much; As for the joy of bed...... It seems that so far, the only thing that Lu Ren is most obsessed with is Diao Chan, although Diao Chan is now gone. However, occasionally Lu Ren will still mention it.

After thinking about it, Wan'er realized that what she could give Lu Ren seemed to be the only way to take care of Lu Ren's diet and daily life, and then to give Lu Ren a little warmth when Lu Ren was tired, so that Lu Ren could have a good rest, and what use could this be? But this is also to blame Lu Ren, after all, Lu Ren still has too many words to say to Wan'er at the moment, so Wan'er doesn't know what she can give Lu Ren is what Lu Ren really needs most.

In short, Wan'er felt that she was useless. If it's in normal times, it's just useless, just do your best to take care of Lu Ren's diet and daily life, so that Lu Ren can work with peace of mind. But today, because he was useless, he obviously caused a lot of trouble to Lu Ren.

The most important thing is that this trouble could have been avoided, and this is also the reason why Wan'er looked at Cai Yan at this time, because Wan'er felt that it was not herself who was most suitable to stay by Lu Ren's side, but Cai Yan, who saw the problem at that critical time and almost saved Lu Ren from trouble......
