In October of the fourth year of the early peace of the Han Dynasty, with the plundering of the Son of Heaven, the Western Liang Army led by Li Dao and Guo Yan, who controlled the Chaogang, was attacked by the Guandong and Liangzhou coalition forces, and fled out of Tongguan in the east.

Compared with Cao Ying, who fulfilled his wish and got benefits, but was not happy at all, Ma Teng Han Sui, who finally got the "deserved" reward after a lot of effort, and Yuan Shao, who lost face after running empty, and fainted on the main hall, Qingzhou Lu Bu and Qin Xu seemed to be the biggest beneficiaries of this incident.

Qingzhou Lu Bu stayed in Benzhou, the soldiers, horses, grains and grass did not move, and he got the same "treatment" as Yuan Shao and Cao Ying out of thin air, not only increased the food, especially entered Jiuqing, but also was added by the Son of Heaven to the title of general, and confirmed the identity of Qingzhou Mu, no longer the product of Yuan Shao's edict, became a veritable lord of Qingzhou, the biggest advantage is that if someone says that Lu Bu "steals" Qingzhou, he can justifiably use the slander of the courtiers as an excuse to raise troops to fight.

And Qin Xu's encounter, if it was said that when Tao Qian gave up Xuzhou before his death, some people said that it was child's play, but this time he was crowned by the Son of Heaven, but it made the world even more dumbfounded. is only double ten, but from a "small" Fenwu general's mansion, within two years, he has become one of the guards of the Jiuqing, not to mention, and even completed the most desired feudal general of almost all military figures, and really received the post of Xuzhou assassin.

Moreover, this time Qin Xu only came with twenty-three people, and when he returned to Qingzhou, the team had more than 3,000 people, and others lost soldiers and horses in battles, but Qin Xu was fighting more and more, and when Qin Xu and his party had just stepped into Qingzhou and had not yet approached Linzi City, Qin Xu's nickname of "human trafficker" had been secretly circulated in Linzi again by people who were either envious or jealous.

"Sister Yan, it is rumored that my husband has made a big deal outside this time. What horses go down to Tongguan, what single riding the savior, the spread is more and more mysterious, and few people believe it, but this time the husband was named Jiuqing by the Son of Heaven, and the position is only under the lord, and he also gave the history of Xuzhou Thorn, Qian'er is worried, will this make the lord ...... "It is worthy of the black-bellied beauty Cai Yan, and her mind is also turning, even the white jade beauty Gan Qian, who was posthumously called the queen of Shu in history, was also defeated, and willingly called her sister with Lu Lingqi, under the flattery, plus Qin Xu was not in the house, It made Cai Yan's vinegar taste much less, at least some things that were inconvenient to discuss with Lu Lingqi, who was simple in surname, and the eccentric Mi Zhen, but there was also an object for discussion. And this time, after listening to Qin Xu's "brilliant deeds" and "great military exploits" that went viral in Linzi, in the eyes of Gan Qian, who has personally experienced the rise and fall of the family, Qin Xu is indeed too conspicuous. At this age, he is already only one level away from Lu Bu's official, position, knighthood, and position, if it goes on like this, if he is a gangster with his tail between his legs, if he makes meritorious contributions, how can Lu Bu be rewarded? It's impossible to put Qin Xu on an equal footing with him, right? Then there is only one way to solve the problem of high merit and earthquake heroes......

"Sister Qian'er thinks a lot about your husband!" Cai Yan pursed her lips uncomfortably, she has experienced many drastic changes, Cai Yan has seen a lot over the years, and she thinks she can tolerate anything, but the only thing that is difficult to calm down is the name of this white jade beauty Gan Qian to Qin Xu. Originally, Lu Lingqi was Lu Bu's only daughter, and the righteous eldest woman had not been called like this before she got married, but Gan Qian did not leave her mouth after returning from Xuzhou, as if it had become her special name for Qin Xu, which made people annoyed to hear. However, what Gan Qian said aroused Cai Yan's interest, and she also wanted to see what the last "sister" to enter the door was, and said with a light smile: "Qingzhou has been unstable, some people want to deal with some things but can't do it, under the political turmoil, Zhong Ming has no choice but to do it this time, this is the best time to correct General Lu's name and obtain the recognition of the forces in the state. This time it was Zhong Ming himself who strongly asked to go, and even General Lu didn't stop him, no wonder others. You said that if General Lu really wants to suppress Zhong Ming, how should you and I deal with ourselves? ”

"Huh? Qian'er doesn't matter, her uncle-in-law has entrusted Qian'er to her husband for life before she dies, and life and death will go with your husband! The husband can have such great power, and he is almost a very human minister before he has a weak crown, and it is too late for Qian'er to be happy. What's there to do with yourself? Gan Qian said calmly and without thinking about it, and then looked at Cai Yan's eyes and said: "Actually, we don't have anything, Sister Yan is the daughter of Confucianism, and Sister Zhen'er's family is rich and rivals the country, but the eldest lady suffered, and she was sandwiched between her husband and the lord, I am afraid that I will die of sadness." ”

"You don't understand!" Cai Yan looked at the tiger and tiger who danced in the courtyard with an iron halberd that was only one size smaller than Lu Bu's Fang Tian painting halberd, the petite figure drenched in sweat, and Mi Zhen, who was applauded by the little girl on the side, and then looked at the white jade beauty Gan Qian with a melancholy face in front of her, with a helpless smile on her delicate face, and said to herself: "Qin Xu, Qin Xu, I don't know what kind of immortal you were in your last life, and you beauties who thought of him out of thin air. ”

"Sister Yan, what did you say?" Gan Qian saw that the silk handkerchief in Cai Yan's hand was almost twisted, and asked puzzledly, but saw that Cai Yan had already turned his head away.

Qin Xu's mansion is like this, and Lu Bu's mansion is also lively. Lu Bu has always had ears and eyes in Chang'an, and what Qin Xu did in Chang'an almost did not get out of Lu Bu's intelligence sources, even if it was transmitted back that Qin Xu had taken Fan Chou and his three thousand trilogies to Chengcheng had stepped into Qingzhou, less than two hundred miles away from Linzi, Lu Bu was really as Gan Qian was worried about, and in the face of the information in his hand, he was a little entangled, and he didn't even realize that Guo Jia and Zang Hong came together, in the past, this was simply impossible for Lu Bu, who had the title of the world's number one fierce general.

Zang Hong and Guo Jia actually came for Qin Xu's matter. Mainly because Qin Xu's contribution this time is a little too big!

Not to mention what Qin Xu did in Chang'an, which is now more and more outrageous in Linzi City, even his previous proud exploits have been dug up and praised. It is no exaggeration to say that Qin Xu's reputation in Linzi seems to have even surpassed that of Lu Bu, the lord of Qingzhou, in these few days, and this momentum is like someone pushing all this behind it, and it is suspected that it is getting more and more intense.

That's not a good sign! Sima Zanghong of Qingzhou, who sensed that something was wrong, almost immediately asked Guo Jia, who was good at scheming and was regarded as the mastermind by Lu Bu. It's just that this time, the limelight that created momentum for Qin Xu seemed to be groundless, and he didn't know what to do. In addition, because of the promulgation and implementation of the policy of displaced people, there are many people who read Lu Bu's benevolence, but since they learned that this policy came from Qin Xu's hands, there are more people who are grateful to Qin Xu, and the ordinary people who occupy nearly thirty percent of Linzi City are themselves the Yellow Turban soldiers who were said to be surrendered by Qin Xu. I didn't want to add a few of my own conjectures to Qin Xu immediately, and the final result was that Qin Xu's voice in Linzi City was getting higher and higher, and the person who really muddied the water hid himself well. The eyes of the masses are bright, and the power of the masses is infinite, not only does Zang Hong, who has received Qin Xu's "favor", want to find people with bad intentions behind the scenes, but he is also called by Qin Xu's talented and scheming friend Guo Jia, who is powerless for a while. As a last resort, in order to prevent Qin Xu from returning to Linzi and Lu Bu, the two sons-in-law, who were confused by the villain's annihilation plan and had a disagreement, Zang Hong and Guo Jia had no choice but to come to Lu Bu's mansion together, hoping to start with Lu Bu, who had the greatest "hidden danger", and nipped in the bud the crisis that might lead to more and more turmoil in Qingzhou.

"Lord!"

"Lord!"

"Ziyuan, Fengxiao, you are here! What's the matter? Lu Bu subconsciously put the silk in his hand under the case, and asked Zang Hong and Guo Jia.

"I'll wait for ......" Zang Hong is really hard to say about the purpose of coming here, mainly because Qin Xu's identity is too special, several wars in the past two years have made Qin Xu quite prestigious in Lu Bu's army, and he is also a real commander of the Qingzhou army, or the assassin of Xuzhou, this time he was crowned by the Son of Heaven as a guard captain and a general of Zhengdong, and his identity is only one level lower than Lu Bu. Now it is different from the past, it is impossible to say clearly that there are rumors of Qin Xu Chang'an in Linzi City, and they all say that they have noses and eyes as if they have seen it with their own eyes, and the more they are spread, the more outrageous things are rumors, you must not believe it. Looking at Lu Bu's actions just now, anyone can see that now Lu Bu is also entangled, if this kind of thing is said, I am afraid that it will not be pouring water on the fire, but clearly pouring oil, therefore, Zang Hong only said the beginning, and he couldn't say it anymore.

"I'm waiting here for the joy of congratulating the lord's daughter!" Guo Jia is still the best at planning people's hearts, seeing that Zang Hong is stuck in the shell, and Lu Bu's face is full of entanglement, he has no choice but to take the sword sideways, and arch his hand and say: "It's just that the ministers have no money to spare, and I am afraid that they will be laughed at by their colleagues when the time comes, so I have to come to the lord's mansion to congratulate me first, and pray that the lord can avoid the gift of Jia Tongziyuan." ”

"Ziyuan and Fengxiao are so leisurely! Isn't it time to thank you? "Lu Bu is not a fool, seeing that Zang Hong and Guo Jia came together, he knew the intention of the two before he opened his mouth, how much credit Qin Xu made, and Lu Bu was also a person who had entered the center, so he naturally had a clear understanding of the meaning of Liu Xie's will. It is nothing more than to make Yuan Shao, Cao Ying, and he Lu Bu contain each other, and outside of the three, Liu Xie doesn't know if he has other intentions, or if he is really simply to reward Qin Xu for his "grace to save the driver", and set Qin Xu as the fourth person who can compete with the three of them, and the intention of separating and soliciting is obvious. And now all kinds of almost bizarre news flying in Linzi City have forced Lu Bu into a dilemma. No one can know Qin Xu's ability better than Lu Bu, but the greater the ability, the higher the status, the greater the target, and the easier it is to be calculated by the villain, just like now, knowing that someone is behind him, but Lu Bu still has no way to deal with it. And Lu Bu was also worried that if Qin Xu didn't withstand the temptation, it would be even more difficult to handle......

"What's the noise out there?" Just when Lu Bu was entangled in how to deal with the relationship with Qin Xu so as not to let outsiders succeed in their plans, there was a sudden burst of shouting and shouting outside the main hall, which suddenly made it easy for Lu Bu to look better because Guo Jia and Zang Hong, two people with outstanding wisdom and scheming, suddenly turned a little darker, and asked outside the hall.

"My lord! It was the dowry prepared by the eldest lady and the young lady, and she was ordered to be carried into the house. When I just crossed the threshold, I accidentally fell, and some of the children's clothes were stained with mud, and it was the eldest lady who was reprimanding the people. As soon as Lu Bu's command came out, a general entered the hall and reported. Unlike Lu Bu's unknown reason, Guo Jia and Zang Hong took a long breath almost at the same time after hearing this.

"Madame angry? Ziyuan and Fengxiao will wait for a while, and go and have a look. Lu Bu said questioningly. Yan is well-known for his kindness in the mansion, and even in the entire Linzi City, in order to maintain Lu Bu's reputation, during the drought in Qingzhou, he even showed up in person every once in a while to give porridge to the displaced people who poured into Qingzhou. Moreover, Lu Bu knew that Yan's surname was very good, and it was absolutely impossible for such a thing as reprimanding his subordinates to happen if there was no major incident, so Lu Bu was really puzzled by what the family general said, and he just wanted to see what it was that made Yan's so angry.

"You group of people, repeatedly told you to be careful, so that you change people every half an hour, why are you still so negligent?" Before Yan could see it, he heard Yan's high-pitched reprimand almost with a crying voice, which made Lu Bu, who knew that he loved his wife's temper and had nowhere to vent the evil fire in his stomach, become more and more angry, and he arrived at the door of the mansion in three steps and two steps.

"What's going on?" Lu Bu's appearance, especially Tie Qing's face, really made everyone hold their breath, and they didn't dare to take a breath in the atmosphere, standing tremblingly on the ground, and the boxes that fell on the ground were really like what the general said, they were all long-life locks, small belly pockets and other things.

"Bongxian! It's nothing, it alarmed you! When Yan saw Lu Bu coming, he immediately waved his hand and blasted away the servant who had been amnestied, and in the face of Lu Bu's searching gaze, Yan said in a voice of grievance that he had never had before: "These were originally dowries prepared by the concubine for Ling'er, but I didn't expect to be so careful, but something went wrong." These people are too careless, they didn't drop the gold and silver in the first few boxes, but they dropped the objects prepared by the concubine for our precious grandson, they ...... Alas! ”

"Sun ...... Grandchild? Lu Bu looked at the things that were all over the ground, and listened to Yan's story, but his face became stranger than ever. For a long time, Lu Bu always thought that he killed too heavily and caused the anger of the sky, so that he had no children for life, and he had nothing to do after accepting Diao Chan and Cao's family, which aggravated Lu Bu's idea, originally Lu Bu was used to pouring all his feelings into his baby daughter Lu Lingqi, and he didn't think about anything else. But now that Yan said it, Lu Bu, who already valued his family more than anything, couldn't help but be stunned.

"Fengxian, they were also careless, anyway, these have already landed, it's a big deal for the concubine to buy some more. Presumably, Ling'er and Zhongming don't care much about these things, so don't punish them. After all, Yan was still kind-hearted, seeing Lu Bu's strange expression, he thought that Lu Bu was annoying those subordinates who carried things, Yan showed a little wry smile and persuaded him.

"Huh? Oh! No punishment, no punishment! Lu Bu's face gradually calmed down, and finally as if he had let go of all the burdens in his heart, regardless of Yan's stunned and shy, he gently hugged Yan, who was slightly resisting, in his arms, as if he was talking to himself: "You're right! Zhong Ming's kid is coming back after a great achievement, let's go buy some more ...... together" (to be continued.) )
