Chapter 186, decided to tear the skin
Under Li Ru's combination of soft and hard, Hua Xiong finally had no choice but to leave, of course, there was also Princess Yiyang who came with expectations but returned disappointed in the end.
Li Ru wiped his sweat behind his back, thinking that it is not easy to deal with this kind of reckless man, the more such people are more stubborn in dealing with this kind of thing, and he will be persuaded to retire today, but Hua Xiong will definitely come to ask for a visit later, and the titular mother-in-law is not easy to deal with, today this time you can use Dong Zhuo as an excuse that you can't be disturbed, but you can't do it every time, and since Dong Zhuo is out of danger now, then one day in the future he will be able to see people, just to make this play not show flaws so early, We have to keep doing it.
I'm afraid I'll have to trouble Zuo Ci again at that time, but I don't know if he will open his mouth this time? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh to himself again.
When he returned indoors, Dong Zhuo asked him, "Zijian is here too?" ”
Li Ru was not surprised, they didn't deliberately suppress their voices outside, and few people would be more familiar with Hua Xiong's voice than Dong Zhuo, so they could naturally hear it, and replied: "Exactly." ”
"Why didn't you let him in?"
"The less people know about my father-in-law, the better......"
Dong Zhuo frowned, of course he knew about Li Ru's considerations, and he had always recognized them, so he pondered for a while before saying: "Zijian has followed our family for so many years, and I also trust him, so it's okay for him to know about this matter, right?" ”
Li Ru said: "You can't say that, this Hua Xiong is indeed his father-in-law's old department, but people's minds have changed, maybe Hua Zijian will not change, but it is only possible." His friendship with Lu Fengxian is already extraordinary, if he knows about it, it is tantamount to forcing him to make a choice between Lu Fengxian and his father-in-law, his father-in-law has the grace of knowing and supporting him, and Lu Fengxian and him are also teachers and friends, presumably the father-in-law does not want Hua Zijian to be embarrassed. ”
In fact, he still has some words in his heart that he hasn't said, which is exactly what Lu Bu is clever about, that is, his identity is different from Dong Zhuo's, so that he can often communicate with those generals of the Xiliang Army, but it is easier to gain their respect and favor, not to mention Huaxiong, that is, Zhang Xiu, Xu Huang and others now have a good personal relationship with Lu Bu, although it may not be able to make them stand on Lu Bu's side at a critical moment, but it is undoubtedly a hidden danger for Dong Zhuo to control the Xiliang Army.
Yes, the Xiliang army obeyed Dong Zhuo and obeyed his orders, but to put it mildly, after Dong Zhuoquan leaned towards the government and the opposition and gradually separated from the army itself, this kind of respect unconsciously deteriorated, and became just a habit that has been cultivated for a long time. This is also the fundamental reason why Li Ru wants to play those small tricks and want to use them to constantly weaken Lu Buwei's reputation.
But this time, Princess Yiyang brought Hua Xiong to ask to see Dong Zhuo and reminded Dong Zhuo of something, so he smiled at Li Ru and said, "That...... Wen You, I think Yuan'er may get this news later, as for how to send her later, I'll hand it over to you, I feel a little uncomfortable in my body, rest first, and you can go out, ah! ”
Looking at Dong Zhuo's villainous face, Li Ru patted his head and felt a little headache, although he thought that Dong Yuan would definitely not be indifferent if he knew the news, so he had also specially instructed him not to spread the news at will, but where could he do everything smoothly and comprehensively, just like Hua Xiong knew the news, it didn't seem unusual for Dong Yuan to know, so Dong Zhuo would say this and consider it comprehensively.
However, he had already thought of what he said to Dong Yuan anyway, anyway, it was impossible for her to know the truth now, so even if it would make his wife sad for a while, there was no way, as for letting her come in to see Dong Zhuo, it was obviously impossible.
……
In the Bingzhou barracks, after listening to Jia Xu's remarks and understanding the ins and outs and twists and turns, Lu Bu took a deep breath before he said: "In this way, what Dong Zhuo did before was just to confuse me, in fact, even tonight, his real goal is only me, but he may not have to finish his work overnight, but he wants to paralyze me, and then step by step into the trap they have set up a long time ago." ”
I have to say that if Jia Xu hadn't come out in time to wake up at this time, Lu Bu would have really fallen into the trap set by Dong Zhuo and Li Ru, and he could only say that the other party was too willing to pay for it.
Needless to say, the illusions deliberately created before, Dong Zhuo's appearance is very normal, and Li Ru's expression is also normal, so that Lu Bu will choose to believe it unconsciously; Now it seems that they have superb acting skills, of course, Dong Zhuo is a "true performance", playing a white face and Li Ru playing a red face, so Lu Bu will be in the urn unconsciously.
It's just that Lu Bu is not a turtle, he is destined to be a submersible, and he is also destined to turn into a dragon in the face of wind and rain!
And tonight's drama is even more dizzying for Lu Bu, and it may also become the last straw that overwhelms the camel, but it is a pity that it has been recognized by Jia Xu in advance, which means that Li Ru's plan for Dong Zhuo is equivalent to a bamboo basket of water, but whether he can get out of the predicament and reverse the situation depends on whether Lu Bu's next response is appropriate, especially under the close attention of Dong Zhuo and Li Ru, if it does not arouse their suspicion and be able to get out of it safely, This is obviously not an easy thing to do.
Jia Xu's face at this time was also very solemn, it was not easy for this expression to appear on his face, but now it was normal, because this matter itself was indeed unexpected by him, at this time, he only heard him say in a deep voice: "The relationship between the lord and Wang Yue should have been a place that made him suspicious of Wang Yue, so he said that when the lord recommended Wang Yue as his guard, Xu still had doubts about how he finally agreed, but later he saw that the lord and Wang Yue had no contact, and Dong Zhuo did not have anything abnormal on his side, so he didn't think much about it, and settled down; But now it seems that I am afraid that from that time, they began to have a plan, and it was only later that they made up their minds......"
Lu Bu nodded, "I didn't expect that this Li Ru and Dong Zhuo were doing a good job, many things in the past, but now they have made me figure it out, and if they really start to deal with me, in fact, there have been signs of this since before this year, and it is not that they have not made up their minds before, but they just don't have a good plan." ”
Jia Xu nodded, and explained when he saw Lu Cui's doubts: "This matter was mentioned to me before, and Xu also remembered that in June of the sixth year of Zhongping, the lord fell from a horse inexplicably and fell unconscious, and that matter must be inseparable from Li Ru, and then it was a matter of becoming incorruptible, and Liu Guanzhang was originally a pawn that Li Ru wanted to use to deal with the lord, but unfortunately Liu Bei was also an ambitious person who was not easy to control, and Li Ru did not have the confidence to make the trip but made this tonight, fortunately the lord arrived in time, otherwise there may be any consequences." Of course......" He glanced at everyone on the spot, and his face was very solemn: "After tonight, I think that it is no longer suitable for the lord to stay for a long time." Now it is to think of a back road, a place that can be used as a foundation to recharge and seek development. ”
