Under the resentful gaze of Tiankai, the assassin of Qingzhou, Lu Bu finally decided to go to Cao Ying's territory to "be a guest" through Yanzhou.

When the trial and Yan Liang in Huaicheng received the news that Lu Bu's army had crossed the river, three or four hours had passed, and the two sat quietly for a long time, each thinking in their hearts, Yuan Shao's temper was known to both of them, this time the two of them poured the power of Jizhou, and did not "keep" Lu Bu, and let Lu Bu cross the river to Qingzhou, Yuan Shao would definitely be furious again after learning about it, but if he forcibly intercepted, he was afraid of hurting the captured Xu Yu Fengji and Lu Yi, and it was difficult to explain the destruction of the first camp. It's really difficult to be one of the best henchmen under Yuan Shao for this Wen Yiwu. The two of them had a feeling of sympathy for the same illness for a while, and they were relatively speechless, thinking about how to explain to Yuan Shao.

After crossing the river, we arrived at the boundary of Yanzhou.

To be honest, Qin Xu had the idea of taking refuge in Cao Ying at the beginning, and it was indeed the most correct choice at that time. As soon as I entered Yanzhou, I obviously felt that this place was obviously different from Jizhou and Sili.

Although Yanzhou has experienced wars for a long time since the beginning of the Yellow Turban, and the people's livelihood has withered, after all, it was once a large state in the Central Plains with abundant people, although the situation has become more and more decadent since Dong Zhuo's rebellion, but the accumulation and heritage of this thing cannot be easily wiped out by a few wars, and it is far from being comparable to other states and counties in the Han Dynasty.

"General Lu, twenty miles ahead of you will arrive at Chenliucheng, and my lord, General Cao, is setting up a banquet in the city to catch the wind!" The self-proclaimed Xiahou Guang military captain Cao seemed to be Cao Ying's loyal Xiahou clan, and his reverence for Cao Ying along the way was overflowing, making Qin Xu more and more curious about Cao Ying, whom he had admired for a long time but had never seen.

Chenliu is an ancient city, it is the place where Cao Ying first raised the army, and Qin Xu once came here to visit in later generations, but he didn't expect to return to the old place, it has been nearly two thousand years.

"Qin Xu, what are you thinking?" Lu Lingqi saw that Qin Xu was not in high spirits, and asked curiously.

Since arriving at the boundary of Yanzhou, Qin Xu has no privilege to ride in a car, except for Lu Bu's family and Cai's father and daughter, as well as Zhang Yang in a coma, even the old fox Jia Xu has ridden a war horse with everyone.

Lu Bu and Jia Xu are not the first time to meet, when Jia Xu was the Taiwei Lu under Dong Zhuo, he had an intersection with Lu Bu, who was still Dong Zhuo's son at the time, but Lu Bu did not expect that the silent and low-key middle-aged scribe would force Lu Bu to leave Chang'an and go to Hanoi in the next six months, let alone that he would rush to Qingzhou together as a subordinate official "family general". If Lu Bu was born two thousand years later, he would have to sigh: How impermanent the circumstances of life are. Fortunately, Lu Wen was relieved, and when he said goodbye, he didn't want to fight and kill as he said, but after all, he had been defeated in the hands of Jia Xu, so he didn't seem very enthusiastic, and Jia Xu was not surprised, he still adhered to the principle of low-key self-preservation, but he didn't attract much attention.

"Brother Fengxian! How late it is! ”

Just when Lu Bujun had just set up camp outside Chen Liucheng and was about to enter the city later, he saw a large group of people galloping from a distance, the first person was slightly fat, and his face was full of kindness.

"Brother Meng Zhuoxian? It's really Meng Zhuoxian's brother! After Lu Bu saw the person who came, he was also very surprised, and asked: "Since I heard that the virtuous brother and the heroes of the two states, the sour jujube met for the second time, and discussed Dong Zhuo together, there has been no news of the virtuous brother, and I really miss it tightly." ”

"What? The lord and Zhang Taishou are familiar with each other? Qin Xu was confused, but he was relieved when he thought about it. In history, when Chen Gong rebelled against Cao to welcome Lu Bu, he sent Zhang Miao's brother Zhang Chao to contact Chen Liutaishou Zhang Miao to betray him together, and Zhang Miao quickly agreed. Zhang Miao is the hardcore in Cao Ying's eyes, and even said that if there is an accident in Xuzhou, he can entrust all the family to Zhang Miao; If it weren't for the fact that Zhang Miao's relationship with Lü Bu was far greater than his relationship with Cao Ying, Zhang Miao would not have given up almost all of his wanderings with Lü Bu anyway, and was finally killed by his subordinates on the way to Yuan Shu for help. Seeing the situation between the two at this time, Qin Xu was even more convinced.

"Brother Feng Xian, I have heard Meng De say about the matter of Yanzhou this time, although Meng De is now in an alliance with Yuan Shao, but Brother Feng Xian doesn't have to pay attention to it! Yuan Shao is not authentic, if it is replaced by me, I will also rob him, Brother Feng Xian is angry for the younger brother! The entanglement between Zhang Miao and Yuan Shao has to start from the first crusade against Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shao hinted to Cao Ying to kill Zhang Miao several times because of some trivial things, but Cao Ying blocked back, so Lu Bu's looting of Yecheng was very happy in Zhang Miao's opinion.

Zhang Miao had just joined forces with Qiao Mao and others to nominate Cao Ying as the pastor of Yanzhou at this time, and it was the time when he had the best relationship with Cao Ying, and he had no scruples about speaking.

"Meng Zhuo, you came here because General Cao ordered you to pick me up?" Lu Bu greeted Zhang Miao for a while, and seeing that Zhang Miao did not reveal the meaning of Cao Miao's invitation, he asked suspiciously.

"Brother Feng Xian wants to meet in Mengde, and someone will naturally come to invite him later, but Miao really has something to ask for, so he came early." It can be seen that the friendship between Zhang Miao and Lu Bu is no less than the personal friendship between Lu Bu and Zhang Yang, and he spoke straightforwardly, but it made Lu Bu laugh and admit: "Meng Zhuo's words are too heavy, between you and me, why do you need a word?" Just say it! ”

"I am very grateful to be able to serve the words of Brother Xian, but this is just ......" Zhang Miao waved away the guards around him, and looked at the generals behind Lu Bu.

"Lord, the last general will go and supervise the construction of the camp tent!" Zhang Liao, Gaoshun and the others didn't wait for Lu Bu to turn around, they gave up their hands one by one and said that they had something to leave, Qin Xu also wanted to leave, but he didn't want to be stopped by Lu Bu's eyes, so he had to stay behind Lu Bu with Lu Lingqi.

"This is the little girl Lingqi, Ling'er, I haven't seen your Uncle Zhang yet!" Seeing Zhang Miao, Lu Bu looked at Qin Xu and the two behind him with a puzzled look, and said with a smile: "Meng Zhuo, you are an uncle, I'm afraid you haven't seen my precious daughter yet!" ”

"It turned out to be a virtuous niece, and sure enough, it was a tiger father without a dog girl, this armor was worn on the body, I thought it was a general, but I didn't expect it to be a heroine, not bad, this ......" Zhang Miao only noticed at this time that Lu Lingqi, who was wearing a helmet, was a little girl, and Zhang Miao didn't say anything about Lu Bu's letting his daughter do this, but kept praising him, which made Lu Lingqi's face blush, and after giving Zhang Miao a salute, he hid behind Lu Bu. However, because of this, Zhang Miao's eyes became more and more curious about Qin Xu, who was also standing beside Lu Bu, but he didn't dare to determine Qin Xu's identity.

"This is the main book of the marching army under my command, Qin Xu! Meng Zhuo doesn't have to pay attention! Lu Bu seemed to be still entangled in Qin Xu's private taking Lu Lingqi into battle, and said angrily.

"The younger brother wants to recommend one person to Brother Fengxian! I don't know if Brother Feng Xian dares to use it? Seeing that Lu Bu was reluctant to introduce Qin Xu more, Zhang Miao did not continue to ask, but leaned closer to Lu Bu's ear and asked in a mysterious whisper.

"Recommendation? Meng Zhuo was under General Cao, why did he recommend it to Bu? Lu Bu's eyebrows jumped slightly and asked.

"This person ...... Hi! Zhang Miao didn't seem to be able to say the name of this person, looked around again, sighed, and said in a low voice: "Brother Feng Xian, just say if you want it!" ”

Qin Xu was also very curious when he heard it, could it be that the employment situation in the late Han Dynasty was also very grim? Is it also popular to go to the relationship recommended for job hunting?

It shouldn't be, Cao Ying's talent seeking is famous all over the world, and the talent seeking order that will appear in the future has opened the door to the Han Dynasty under the control of this family, if it is really a talent, why does Zhang Miao seem to have unspeakable doubts about Lu Bu?

"Oh? Who is it? Unexpectedly embarrassed Meng Zhuo? Zhang Miao's attitude aroused Lu Bu's interest, and asked, "Since it is recommended by Meng Zhuo, how can Bu not accept it?" Where is this person now? Can you give me a glimpse? ”

"Ahem, thank you Brother Fengxian, it's just that this person is now at my brother Zhang Chao's place. Ahem, Brother Feng Xian doesn't need to worry, this person is quite talented, and he will definitely not disappoint Brother Feng Xian. Zhang Miao didn't expect Lu Bu to agree so happily, and he was a little embarrassed for a while, and explained worriedly.

"Well, Bu is waiting to see what is so good about the person who can be so strongly recommended by Brother Meng Zhuo!" Lu Bu smiled indifferently.

"Could it be him?" Qin Xu has been recalling Zhang Miao's deeds, and at the beginning of hearing that Zhang Miao was going to recommend talents to Lu Bu, a name appeared in Qin Xu's mind. If it was really him, then Lu Bu would definitely have earned it, although this person's talent is not outstanding in the world, he is definitely the number one top person. Moreover, this person has a lot of history with Lu Bu, and even his son is very important under Lu Bu, so if he can get this person, then Lu Bu will gain a foothold in Qingzhou, and it will be no problem.

Seeing that Lu Bu agreed, Zhang Miao also showed a relaxed smile on his face, chatted with Lu Bu for a long time, and finally waited for the official of Cao Ying's forces to greet Lu Bu, who was also a clan surnamed Cao, but after Qin Xu heard the name of the person who came, his face suddenly became a little strange.

Cao Ren!

Cao Hong, the general of Cao Ying's forces, who was killed by Qin Xu, is Cao Ren's uncle and brother. Seeing that Cao Ren, who was young and calm at this time, was trying to pretend to be greeted with "enthusiasm", Qin Xu wanted to know what the other party's expression would be if he knew that Cao Hong had died at his own hands.

Lu Lingqi also seemed to notice Qin Xu's unnaturalness, and tugged on Qin Xu's sleeve, so that Qin Xu didn't lose his temper too much.

Leaving Lu Lingqi, Gao Shun, Song Xianhou, Cheng Chenglian and others to stay in the camp, Lu Bu only brought more than a dozen soldiers who fell into the camp, and Zhang Liao, Qin Xu and others entered Chen Liucheng under the leadership of Zhang Miao and Cao Ren.

Cao Ying is now the pastor of Yanzhou, and the Yanzhou governance office is originally in Changyi, but Chen Liu is Cao Ying's base camp, the place of the first righteousness, and it is close to the battlefield where the Yellow Turban is raging, so most of the time, Cao Ying stayed in Chen Liu.

This is the first time that Qin Xu has been so close to his former idol, although the honor of this idol is really a bit inconsistent.

"Bongxian! Bongxian! I have been looking at your face for a long time, and I can see it now, which is really a great luck! ”

Cao Ying's face was a little haggard, but the deep eyes in a pair of narrow and detailed eyes made people easily feel a faint majesty.

Although Cao Ying almost died in the hands of Boss Lu several times, when the two men met for the first time, they didn't feel the slightest dissatisfaction from Cao Ying. On the contrary, that kind of enthusiasm and affection made Lu Bu almost unable to resist.

People who don't know the past of the two are afraid to think that the two people who talk happily with each other will be the best friends in the world!
