Luan Yi handed the wine cup to Cao Cao and asked, "Why is Brother Meng De so worried?" ”

Cao Cao poured a sip of sweet brew and said quietly: "Does Ziqi see it?" ”

"See what?"

"When the leader of the alliance was elected today, Wang Kuang and the others were instigated by Ben Zheng."

"Oh!" Luan Yi was noncommittal, "I really didn't see it!" ”

Cao Cao glanced at Luan Yi, "You didn't even expect the troubled times to come, and you can't even see this bit of?" ”

"Probably the authorities are fans, and the bystanders are clear!" Luan Yi took a sip of wine.

"You're not angry?" Cao Cao glanced at Luan Yi's facial expression back and forth, but saw that Luan Yi's expression was blank, and there was nothing unusual.

Luan Yi was inexplicable and said, "What's there to be angry about?" ”

Cao Cao was shocked and said, "You go\. In the main hall, he did not hesitate to use a knife and a gun with Dong Zhuo to save his Yuan Benchu's life, and today in the big tent, he not only did not thank you for saving your life, but turned around and joined others to insult you from the family of Shangjia, and slandered you for instigating the first emperor to engage in business...... You're not angry about this? ”

Luan Yi lowered his head and said, "To be honest, I'm really not angry." It is true that I came from a humble background, and I also induced His Majesty to do business, and what they said was the truth, and I had nothing to say, let alone be angry. It's just a little ...... How to tell it well? It's a bit of a loss, yes, it's a loss. I always feel like I've lost something, and it's empty. ”

"Yes! Lost, lost! Cao Cao's eyes flashed with tears, "After so many years of friendship, how can I lose it for the sake of just one alliance leader!" I think back then, you and I were good friends! I've spent more time with you than my mother-in-law! Right now...... Originally, he was the leader of the alliance, and if he said he would lose it, he would lose it! ”

"People always change. It's not that people want to change, it's the environment that forces people! Luan Yi's words changed, "Then again, how can Brother Meng De not doubt me?" ”

"What do you suspect?"

Luan Yi asked: "Do you suspect that I instigated Kong Wenju and Liu Gongshan to elect me as the leader of the alliance?" ”

"You're not like that!" Cao Cao waved his hand.

"It's an honor to have Brother Meng De's comment." Luan Yi patted Cao Cao on the shoulder, "However, Brother Meng De, don't blame Brother Benchu, he has his own troubles." ”

"Bitter? What can he do! Cao Cao snorted coldly.

Luan Yi recalled: "Do you still remember the birthday banquet of Yuanfu eight years ago? The people congratulating the birthday were overcrowded, and they lined up all the way to Suzaku Street, if it weren't for Meng De's recommendation, I almost didn't even get a seat! At that time, the fourth and third princes of the Yuan family, how lofty was their status? But since Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, the power of the Yuan family has been greatly weakened, and the officials of the Yuan family in the court have been replaced by Dong Zhuo into party members, and the two adults of Yuan Feng and Yuan Kui have been trapped in Luoyang City, which is like house arrest. Now, the original brother offended Dong Zhuo and escaped from Luoyang, and the situation of the two Yuan Dukes is even more critical, maybe one day they will be caught by Dong Zhuo and cut off their heads. At the beginning, he was eager to save people, so he did everything possible to ascend to the throne of the alliance leader, in order to command the army to quickly capture the tiger prison and kill it to Luoyang. ”

Cao Cao frowned and said, "Hey! Ziqi, what do you want me to say? You always like to think about others first, why don't you think about yourself? Wang Zhonglang and Cai Xijiu are also trapped in Luoyang, aren't you in a hurry to save the two fathers-in-law? ”

Luan Yicancan said: "Hurry! How can it not be in a hurry? Even if I'm not in a hurry, Zhao Ji and Cicada are in a hurry. So I've already taken the first step and asked Luan Fu to use the network of Our Lady Sect in Luoyang to rescue the two elders. Seven days ago, I went out of the city, presumably I have arrived in Mengjin at this time, and I can reach Jinan in less than half a month by boat. ”

Luan Yi also said that he also wanted to rescue Yuan Kui, but Yuan Kui was very stubborn. If you have to stay in the capital, what is it called, the national thieves will not be eliminated for a day, and they will not leave the capital for a day, and they will live and die together with the Jiangshan Sheji.

Luan Fu's subordinates tried to persuade him to no avail, so he had no choice but to give up the rescue.

After hearing this, Cao Cao was stunned, he knew that Luoyang at this time would inevitably be blocked by Dong Zhuo, and it was a miracle to be able to take Wang Yun and Cai Yong, two important ministers of the imperial court, out of Luoyang in this situation. But it was such a difficult thing, but Luan Yi did it. Although there is no witness to the truth or falsehood, it can be seen from Luan Yi's sworn expression that he has received permission before this and is sure that Wang Yun and Cai Yong have left Beijing. Only then did he tell him Cao Cao.

Cao Cao sighed: "Ziqi is really hand-eyed! ”

"I don't dare to be a hand and an eye, thanks to the wisdom of Luoyang's brothers and sisters!" Wang Yun and Cai Yong left Beijing, and his last worries in Beijing were completely eliminated, and he could let go of his hands and feet. The only thing that worries him is that Wang Yun and Diao Chan have gone to Jinan, what will happen without the beauty Ji Dong Zhuoke. Thinking of this, he frowned and sighed secretly: Do your best!

Luan Yi took a sip of wine, and then said to Cao Cao: "There is another reason why Brother Ben seeks to take the position of alliance leader. That is, once the two Yuan Dukes died, the heavy responsibility of inheriting the remnants of the Yuan family fell on the first brother and Yuan Highway. What kind of virtue Yuan Highway is, you and I know it very well. The first brother knows that he has a great responsibility and needs to establish a reputation for himself as soon as possible. Undoubtedly, becoming the leader of the coalition is the best shortcut to fame, isn't it? ”

"I didn't think about it that much, I just felt that the menstrual period was gone, and the original had changed!"

The corners of Luan Yi's mouth rose, "The world has changed, the environment has changed, and people's hearts have naturally changed!" If it doesn't change, wouldn't it become ignorant of current affairs? When the first emperor was alive, the eagle flew away, and the peaceful days of singing the wine ode were no more, and the troubled times began. As the so-called person who knows the times is Junjie, he has done better than you and me in this regard! Isn't it? ”

Cao Cao asked, "Will that Ziqi also change?" ”

"Me?" Luan Yi didn't know how to answer, "If you don't hide it from Brother Mengde, I don't know if it will change." Or to put it bluntly, I'm already changing. 6 years ago, I was not afraid of heaven and earth, and I always thought that it was a big deal to lose a bowl and a big scar on my head, and I would go to heaven to live a happy life. But later...... When I was put in prison by Zhang Rang and stayed in the cell, I was afraid, I was not afraid of death, and I was afraid of affecting my family. Do you understand that feeling? ”

Cao Cao nodded.

"Later, when I married a wife and took a concubine, I was afraid that they would suffer because of me. Now, I am worried about the people of Jinan again. If I'm gone, will Notre-Dame continue to exist? With the Church of Our Lady gone, can the people of Jinan still live a good life? ”

Luan Yi laughed miserably, "Somehow, the older you get, the more things you have to take care of. For the sake of those who are concerned, for the bonds in my heart, I feel more and more that I must live well. Whoever won't let me live, I'll let him die before me, whoever it is, wherever it is. As soon as this thought pops out of my head, I can't get rid of it. It's like a leek, cutting off a stubble, and then a stubble, even dreaming sometimes killing, and I can't sleep well. Can you relate to that feeling? ”

Cao Cao also nodded.

"So, we're all changing, right!"

Cao Cao nodded again.

Luan Yi said half-jokingly, "Maybe one day I touched your bonds, and you still want to kill me!" ”

Cao Cao laughed, "How is it possible! ”

How could it be! Luan Yi twisted the beads of sweat on his nose, laughed, and suddenly became serious again, "Brother Mengde, you just need to remember." I, Luan Ziqi, may change, but I am definitely a person who distinguishes between public and private, and I will not abandon friendship at will. Even if you and I meet each other because of contradictions, I, Luan Ziqi, are still your brothers, and this will never change. All right? ”

Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, "Look at your serious appearance, it's weird and scary." How can you and I meet each other? Ziqi is really good at laughing. ”

Luan Yi also laughed, "Come, for the sake of brotherhood, float a big white." ”

"Great goodness!"

Swinging out of Cao Cao's tent, Luan Yi did not take the reins handed by Hercules, indicating that he wanted to take a walk.

He walked on the dirt road in the camp with his head down and his hands in his hands, while Hercules followed him with his horse.

With the rhythm of the horse's hooves, Luan Yi walked out of Cao Cao and Zhang Miao's village and walked in the direction of his camp.

When he arrived at the gate of Dazhai, he heard someone calling to him, "Young Master, Lord!" ”

Luan Yi looked forward to it, and there were three people standing in front of the walled gate, and the person at the head was Liu Bei.

"Oh? Xuande Gong, why are you here so late? ”

Listening to Luan Yi call himself Xuande, Liu Bei was overjoyed, "Young Master still remembers my words, it's an honor." ”

Obviously, Liu Bei has not encountered things that are famous but forgotten by others in an instant.

Luan Yi said: "I have been in the capital for a long time, and I have heard Mr. Zigan (Lu Zhibiaozi) mention the talent of Xuande Gong, so I keep it in mind!" ”

"I don't dare to take the word 'gong' seriously, and the young master can directly call the word for the table."

"That's a faux pas!" Luan Yi glanced at Liu Bei, "Older, it's good for me to call you Brother Xuande!" ”

Liu Bei was excited, "Fortunately, I am also prepared!" Yu Ban and Xu Huang, who were standing behind him, nodded secretly, and secretly sighed that Corporal Luan Ziqi Lixian was very polite to ordinary farmers and craftsmen, and there was no shelf, but now it seems that it is really true!

"In this case, Brother Xuande, don't call me any more young masters, just call Ziqi!"

"Very good!" Liu Bei replied respectfully.

"Brother Xuande came to me so late to find me for something important?"

"It's not a big deal, it's just that I have to see Ziqi in person today, and I'm here to visit!"

"Visit?" Luan Yi was stunned. Now that nearly three hours have passed since the end of the feast, has Liu Bei been waiting here? "When did Brother Xuande come, you've been waiting for a long time, right?"

"The feast is over! I never thought that Ziqi had never returned. ”

This guy ...... It's so patient, no wonder you can look at the thatched house!

Luan Yi sighed in his heart for a while, and apologized: "After the party was dismissed, Yi stayed in the tent and studied the terrain with Brother Meng De, which caused Brother Xuande to wait for so long, Yi Zhi was also wrong!" Brother Xuande, I'm afraid I'm tired! Quick, there is love in the village, let's talk in the account. I have the best fairy brew here, and I don't give it to him in ordinary people! ”

"It's too late today, and I have to form a bloody alliance tomorrow morning, so I won't bother Ziqi to rest. When you have time another day, I'll talk again! ”

Not to mention, after drinking a lot of wine, Luan Yi was really sleepy. didn't keep Liu Bei, and agreed to talk another day.

Standing outside the walled gate, he watched Liu Bei's three brothers walk out of sight, but he heard Xu Shu speak from inside the walled gate, "What kind of character is this, and it is so valued by Brother Yi'er?" ”

Luan Yi smiled and asked, "How can you see that I value him?" ”

"How can ordinary people have Brother Yi standing outside the gate of the village and talking for so long, and still watching the other party leave?"

Luan Yi scratched his head, "Brother Fu heard it?" ”

"I just wanted to go to the door to see if Brother Yi'er had come back, and I just heard you talking. Who is that man? ”

Luan Yi's perspective still did not leave the direction where Liu Bei left, "His name is Liu Bei Xuande...... A careerist! ”

"Careerist?"

Luan Yi explained: "Very ambitious people! ”

Xu Shu said: "What's the use of just having ambitions!" I think this person is ordinary, and he doesn't deserve to be treated so kindly by Brother Yi'er! ”

Luan Yi didn't know why, "How can I treat him well?" ”

"What did Brother Yi do for so long?"

"Oh...... That's what you say! Luan Yi clicked his lips and said stupidly: "I'm not looking at him, I'm looking at his two brothers." They're all fierce generals......
