Lu Bu watched Liu Jing and Cao Cao suddenly stop talking, he also knew that these two people were weighing the pros and cons, and they didn't dare to agree to themselves easily, because they were both people who made their own words, and they paid great attention to reputation.

And the problem now is that no matter which side Liu Jing and Cao Cao choose to side with, it is not conducive to the current situation, so Lu Bu's seemingly simple personal grudge actually completely affects the development of the entire court situation.

After thinking about it, Lu Bu sighed again, and said seemingly casually: "Hey, people say that Xuande Gong and Meng Degong are extremely elegant people and have a benevolent heart, and now I, Lu Bu, want to follow your example, I want to contribute to the country, but I can't feel at ease, hey, I'm so embarrassed, if the family is gone, what does it mean to protect the country and protect it?" Do you think I'm right? ”

This is another signal sent by Lu Bu, that is, if you don't answer me and give me an attitude, then don't think about our alliance, and don't blame me Lu Bu for being selfish, this net worth and life are all here, and he Lu Bu will not be a sage, regardless of his wealth, he will save any country without hesitation.

Liu Jing knew the urgency of this matter, and seeing that the alliance was about to be completed, it was impossible for him to be beaten back to his original form for the request made by Lu Bu, in this way, he and Cao Cao's efforts all night would be in vain, wouldn't they come in vain again?

It can't be like this, it must not be like this, Liu Jing was telling himself in his heart that since he had decided to come, he must get things done, and he would never allow himself to fail on this small issue.

The cold wind of winter was blowing outside the window, and the sound of swishing kept coming into the ears of everyone in the house, breaking the originally silent winter night, although there was a brazier in the house to keep warm, and the coals that symbolized hope were also burning, but it could not warm the hearts of Liu Jing and Cao Cao.

The room was so quiet at the moment that no one spoke or wanted to speak, and as the minutes and seconds passed, it seemed as if the quiet and dull night had suddenly become much longer and more uncomfortable.

After Liu Jing struggled hard in his mind for a while, he decided to give it a try, he couldn't just do it, so Liu Jing raised his head, looked at Lu Bu and said: "What General Lu means, I understand, but this matter is very important, Meng Degong and I are just foreign officials in a corner, and we don't want to get involved in the ups and downs in the capital."

However, since it is for the sake of the country's righteousness, for the safety and stability of the Han Dynasty, and in order to let General Lu be able to fight with confidence, I, Liu Jing, can first express my attitude here, whether it is before or after the war between us and the Xiliang Army, I will lead my headquarters to ensure the safety of General Lu's net worth.

Even if the battle fails, as long as I, Liu Jing, still have a little bit of soldiers and horses, I will use it to protect General Lu's family, and General Lu will definitely have no worries! ”

Liu Jing's words were sincere and straightforward, and they were also very touching, and after Cao Cao heard it, he immediately said: "Since General Lu has such worries, my meaning is the same as that of Xuande Gong, I will not get involved in party disputes, this is my bottom line, but as long as I Cao Cao has the strength to protect General Lu's family, I will definitely not disappoint General Lu!" ”

After hearing the answers of these two people, Lu Bu was also a little disappointed in his heart, and his face immediately became a little blue, but Liu Jing and Cao Cao's decision was reasonable, and they were replaced by any magistrate outside Beijing, who would want to get involved in this party struggle in this troubled world? More is better than less, and self-preservation is the choice of smart people.

Chen Gong, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke at this time, because he thought it was time for him to come forward and say something.

Chen Gong looked at Lu Bu and said slowly: "General, I think the approach of Xuande Gong and Meng Degong has shown great sincerity, for the stability of the Han Dynasty and the continuation of the emperor's foundation, the general should make a decision, so as not to be drilled by the villain and delay the fighter!" ”

Lu Bu heard Chen Gong's words and knew that he was also hinting at himself, it was enough to stop, it was time to make a decision, and Lu Bu also quickly figured it out, as long as Liu Jing and Cao Cao were not on Wang Yun's side, it would be a blessing, and they could also protect the safety of their families, which was even more benevolent and acceptable.

So Lu Bu's face turned from iron blue to ruddy, so he pretended to be disappointed and laughed a few times, and said to Liu Jing and Cao Cao: "Xuande Gong and Meng Degong are worthy of being benevolent and righteous people, and they are really very assertive and generous in their lives and things, since you have already expressed your position, I also know that you are doing your best, hey, it seems that it can only be like this, so our cooperation is just..."

When Liu Jing and Cao Cao heard Lu Bu's tone and attitude, their hearts suddenly tightened, and the two of them stared at Lu Bu at the same time, waiting for him to finish saying this sentence and waiting for his result.

Chen Gong also raised his head and looked directly at Lu Bu with his eyes, but he was not panicked in his heart, because he knew that Lu Bu was bluffing, and he was deliberately teasing Liu Jing and Cao Cao.

Sure enough, after Lu Bu took a big breath, he also said happily: "Just continue, let us go to the battlefield together and kill the enemy for the country!" Come on, let's replace wine with tea, first wish us a happy cooperation! ”

After Lu Bu finished speaking, he picked up the teacup on the table, Liu Jing and Cao Cao also looked at each other and smiled, picked up the teacup, Chen Gong also smiled faintly, raised the teacup, and the four of them touched each other, and then drank it all.

After Yuan Shao had a foundation in his heart, he summoned all the princes to discuss the enemy's strategy.

On this day, in Yuan Shao's military camp, all the heroes of the Western Expedition Alliance gathered: Chen Liutai Shou Zhang Miao, Beihai Taishou Kong Rong, Xuzhou Thorn Shi Taoqian, Xinjin Xiliang Taishou Ma Teng, Beiping Taishou Gongsun Zhan, Changsha Taishou Sun Jian, Jizhou Thorn Shi Han Fu and so on.

Yuan Shao sat on the throne of the alliance leader, his heroic posture was radiant, and he was in good spirits, as if he was in a particularly good state today.

When Sun Jian saw Yuan Shao in such a state, and summoned all the princes over, he bowed his hand and asked: "Lord Yuan is full of energy today, and he looks like he has some happy event, what is it that has brought everyone here?" ”

Yuan Shao looked at Sun Jian and said with a smile: "Today I received an order from Wang Situ, the imperial court is going to have a big event to be sent to us!" ”

Tao Qian was scheming, and as soon as he heard Yuan Shao say this, he said: "It won't be that Wang Situ and let us deal with Li Zhiran and your Xiliang army, right?" If this drudgery falls again. I don't do it, I can obviously go to surrender, but I have to exterminate people, hum, this is to fight hard, not to make a joke! (To be continued.) )
