It is said that before Luan Yi attacked Xuzhou, in order to appease Yuan Shu, he stopped him from sending troops to aid Liu Bei. Luan Yi once ordered Luan Fu to send an envoy to Shouchun, and agreed with Yuan Shu that as long as he did not send troops to Xuzhou, Luan Yi would be on the table of the young emperor, and crowned Yuan Shu as the assassin of Yuzhou, and at the same time gave away five cities such as Xia Cai and Lingbi.

So, after learning that Luan Yi had captured Xuzhou, Yuan Shu was excited for a while about to win five cities, so he sent his advisor Bu Zhu to Xiapi to ask for the city.

After arriving in Xiapi, Bu Zhu originally thought that Luan Yi would not easily fulfill the contract and let out the five cities in vain. But he never thought that after knowing his intentions, Luan Yi didn't even hesitate at all, and immediately nodded in agreement.

This shocked Bu Zhu for a while, and sighed: That's five cities! I don't know how much blood and sweat it took to capture it. With this novice promise, Luan Yi can be called a true gentleman.

"However......" Just when Bu Zhu was secretly rejoicing that he could make a smooth delivery, he heard Luan Yi's voice change and told him: A few days ago, His Majesty issued an edict to entitle Shangshu Lu Zhi as the assassin of Xuzhou, which means that Xuzhou now has a main master. In this way, Luan Yi also wants to keep his promise and hand over the city as promised, but after all, he is the assassin of Yanzhou, and he can't interfere in the affairs of other states across the border, and he has no right to give the city of Xuzhou to others.

When Bu Zhu heard this, his face immediately drooped. He understood that Luan Yi was faking someone else's name and using high-sounding reasons to deceive. He secretly scolded Luan Yi for being despicable, you have worked so hard to take Xuzhou down, can you easily hand over the affairs of Yizhou to outsiders? Obviously, Lu Zigan is in the same group as you. You keep saying that you are the assassin of Yanzhou, but the world knows that you are more than the prime minister, and the affairs of the court and the central government are not at your disposal, and the state affairs are all up to you, and the five cities are not assigned by you? Who believes!

Bu Zhu was furious, and suddenly stood up and asked Luan Yi, "Luan Yanzhou is so dishonest to others, aren't you afraid that the world will laugh at you?" ”

"Mr. Bu, don't worry, don't worry! Listen to me slowly. Luan Yi hurriedly persuaded him, and after Bu Zhu sat down, he said euphemistically: "It is true that I, Luan Ziqi, can say something in the court." But the position is the history of Yanzhou, and it is absolutely forbidden to transgress it. Because of this, I said that Xuzhou is fifty percent, and I can't give it! ”

"What else can you say?" Bu Zhu flicked his sleeves and left, and Luan Yi hurriedly went down the steps to stop him.

"Although I can't give it directly, my relationship with Lu Xuzhou is extraordinary. When he arrived in Xiapi to take office, I pleaded with him kindly, and he would look at my face and hand over the city defense. As he spoke, Luan Yi winked at Bu Xu, "Mr. Bu understands!" ”

Bu Xuan suddenly realized and immediately understood what Luan Yi meant. That's right, as Luan Yi said, although Luan Yi holds great power and is comparable to the prime minister, on the surface, he is the assassin history of Yanzhou, and he is on the same level as the assassin history of Xuzhou. As the assassin of Yanzhou, giving the five cities of Xuzhou to Yuan Shu was a serious violation of the laws of the Han Dynasty. It is true that the current Han law's binding force on the feudal officials is infinitely close to zero, but out of the need to protect their own reputation, they still have to put on a must.

Just like the current Yanzhou assassin Shi Luanyi, he does have the right to directly give the city to Yuan Shu, but this is illegal, and he will end up with a reputation for monopolizing power. It was for this reason that Luan Yi said that he couldn't directly give the city to Yuan Shu. Instead, he needs to beg Lu Zhi to fulfill his promise for him.

said that it was a pleading, but Bu Zhu understood very well that Luan Yi was going to privately order Lu Zhi to get out of the city. In this way, it is natural for Lu Zhi, the well-rooted Xuzhou Thorn History, to exchange Xuzhou city defense, which does not violate the Han law, and Luan Yi's reputation will not be discredited; Those five cities, Yuan Shu also took it naturally.

It's good for both parties.

Thinking of this, Bu Zhu couldn't help but be happy, "If it weren't for the adults to wake up, the villains would not have realized!" ”

Luan Yi smiled, talked a few more words, and asked Bu Zhu to go to the pavilion first to wait for the letter, and then discuss when Lu Zhi took office.

Bu Zhu returned happily, during the days when he was waiting in Xiapi, Luan Yi treated him warmly and thoughtfully, and arranged for Mao Jue to accompany him to visit the mountains and rivers, and enjoyed the beautiful scenery around Xiapi. Later, I heard that Bu Zhu was also a romantic talent, so he simply sent Guo Jia to sing songs every night.

Occasionally, Luan Yi would personally invite him to church, listen to the service, and learn to sing. After participating in two worship services, Luan Yi, who was standing on the podium, nodded secretly as he looked at Bu Xu, who was singing hymns in the audience. Perhaps, in this short period of half a month, a seed containing the Gospel of Our Lady will be left in the depths of Buju's heart, and over time, this seed will take root and sprout, and eventually entrench in his entire thought.

Half a month later. Hearing that Lu Zhi arrived yesterday, Bu Zhu pulled his tired body out of the woman's arms early in the morning. He patted the face of the person next to him, obviously very satisfied with the beautiful woman presented by Luan Yi.

Putting on his clothes, he went straight to the Assassin's Mansion, handed over the name post, and was led by Jiading. In the main hall, I met the real master of Xuzhou - the famous former general of the expedition to the north, Shangshu, and the holy military division, and the university hall of the sacrifice wine Lu Zhi and Lu Zigan.

At this time, Luan Yiye Hall, seeing Bu Xu's arrival, immediately told Lu Zhi in detail about the promise he had made with Yuan Shu to deliver the five cities. He swept his eyes towards Lu Zhi with anticipation and said, "Mr. Zigan, look at this...... Give them the city! ”

Bu Zhu thought that Jiaocheng was just a matter of Luan Yi's words, but he never thought that Lu Zhi would veto, "No!" Not a single city can be given to them! ”

"It's not good!" Luan Yi looked bitter, "It's all agreed, wouldn't it be a breach of trust to regret it now, and it will be made fun of by the world!" ”

"Yes! Oh, yes! Bu Zhu responded again and again.

"Yuan Highway is a wolf, even if he is made fun of by the world, he can't hand over the city to them." Lu Zhi stared at Bu Zhu angrily, and all the murderous aura accumulated on the battlefield came out at once. The temperature of the entire lobby seemed to have dropped, and the "frozen" cloth shivered.

"Yuan Highway wolf ambition? What do you mean by that? Luan Yi pretended to be stupid and asked.

If Luan Yi is false and doesn't know, then Bu Zhu is really puzzled, and responded in confusion, "The lord of my family is Hanchen." has made great contributions to the Han Dynasty, how can you say that the wolf is ambitious? ”

"Then I'll ask you!" Lu Zhi said angrily: "There is news that Sun Jian's son Sun Ce used the heirloom jade seal to exchange for 5,000 armor soldiers from Yuan Highway. Yes and no? ”

"This ......" Bu Zhu felt weak for a while.

Lu Zhi was aggressive, "The Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty is still there, as a courtier, what is the reason why he secretly hid the jade seal of the country and did not hand it over?" In my opinion, I have the heart to build another temple! ”

Bu Zhu panicked and quibbled: "This is a false rumor, Lu Xuzhou should not be gullible." ”

Lu Zhi snorted coldly and said, "The evidence in this matter is conclusive, and it is useless to quibble. Yuan Highway is also a traitor, and the old man must not easily hand over the city to him! ”

"Huh?" Bu Zhu was in a hurry, and hurriedly begged Luan Yi, "Luan Yanzhou, we have already agreed." My lord acted as promised, and Luan Yanzhou should also keep his promise! ”

"Mr. Bu, don't be impatient!" After appeasing Bu Xu, Luan Yi looked bitter, turned his head and pleaded with Lu Zhi: "Mr. Zigan! You see, the matter of the five cities was discussed with Yuan Highway a long time ago. If the agreement is not fulfilled, it will damage the reputation. For my sake, give the city to Yuan Yuzhou! ”

"No way!" Lu Zhi still refused without hesitation, "It is absolutely impossible to give the Han family city to a traitor like Yuan Highway for nothing." It is useless to persuade anyone. ”

"Oops! Mr. Zigan! Luan Yi was greatly distressed, his facial features were twisted together, he gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, got up and bowed and said, "Sir." I have known you for nearly ten years! In ten years, Yi has never pleaded with you. Even if I beg you today, give the city to Yuan Shu! ”

Originally, Bu Zhu thought that Luan Yi and Lu Zhinai had discussed in advance to tease themselves together. Now seeing that Luan Yi was so sincere when he pleaded, he was not suspicious and was greatly moved.

Lu Zhi also seemed to be frightened by Luan Yi's sincere words, and hesitated. "This ...... For Ziqi's sake, Lingbi and Xia Cai Zhucheng can also be handed over to Yuan Shu. ”

Bu Xu's eyes lit up.

"But......" Lu Zhi changed his words, "Since Ziqi speaks like this, I have to sell Ziqi a little face." In this way, the city cannot be given in vain. The jade seal of the country is related to the rise and fall of the imperial court, and Yuan Highway only needs to hand over the jade seal of the country to the imperial court, and I will arrange for someone to hand over the city defense with Yuan Highway. ”

"This ......," Bu Xuan choked.

Luan Yi spoke out at the right time, "Mr. Zigan's words are reasonable. The jade seal of the country belongs to the royal family, and it is natural that it should be returned to the original owner when it is returned to the court. At that time, the highway brother into the jade seal is a great achievement, I and Mr. Zigan can jointly sign the table, show the merit of the highway brother, through His Majesty's words will be Xia Cai, Lingbi and other five cities under the rule of Yuzhou. In this way, it is logical for Brother Highway to govern, and both hair is beneficial, so why not! ”

Bu Zhu had to admit that Luan Yi's words were reasonable, and the conditions offered were not harsh. The jade seal of the country is just a useless ornament for Yuan Shu, and it is a good deal to exchange a virtual thing for five real cities.

Thinking of this, Bu Zhu patted his chest and assured Luan Yi and Lu Zhi that he would report the details to Yuan Shu as soon as he went back, and he would definitely exchange the jade seal of the country for the city.

After the major event was finalized, Bu Zhu immediately resigned, returned to the pavilion to pack his luggage, and returned to Yuzhou with the beautiful girl presented by Luan Yi.

Seeing the back of Bu Zhu leaving, Lu Zhi asked Luan Yi, "What if Yuan Shuzhen uses the jade seal of the country to exchange the city?" ”

Luan Yi sneered, "Mr. Zigan, don't worry. Yuan Shu is a short-sighted person, a mediocre person. Now I'm afraid that I am holding the jade seal of the country and dreaming of ascending the throne! Don't say that five cities will not be exchanged even if he is given ten big cities. ”

"Hehe......" Lu Zhi stroked his long beard with a smile, "If Ziqi is not mistaken, then Yuan Shu is really as you said, it is the 'rotten bones in the grave'!" ”

"You can't be wrong! But ......"

"But what?" Lu Zhi asked.

"I'm worried that Yuan Shu will use troops in Xuzhou!" Luan Yi said.

"That's why you transferred my old bones to Xuzhou?"

Luan Yi nodded yes, "Brother Jia predicts that Yuan Shu will join forces with Cao Cao to use troops against the diocese. I need to go back to Yanzhou to support my second brother in resisting Cao Cao. As for Xuzhou...... Feng Xian and his Holy Bear Army must stay, and at the same time, Xuzhou must also have someone to sit in the yamen at this time. You also know that Feng Xian is unruly, and ordinary people can't control him, so I thought of you. ”

"How do you know I can shock him!"

Luan Yi said: "Hey! I would like to ask if there is any other general in the Han Dynasty who has a higher reputation and prestige than you, if you can't suppress Lu Bu. Then there will be no one to command him! "Slap the sycophants!" Lu Zhi rushed to Luan Yi is a brain crash. "Let's go chess!"

"Uh......"
