Chapter 52, Taiwei Lu Fengxian
Looking at Cao Cao who was walking away, Lu Bu couldn't help but snort coldly, from beginning to end, he regarded Cao Cao and Sun Ce as his biggest enemies, which was undoubtedly influenced by the historical impression in his mind, but it was undeniable that even if Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu now have an advantage over these two people in their respective territories, they are actually inferior to these two.
Especially with the mixture of Lu Bu, the current Yuan Shao has not completed the great cause of unifying the four states, and I am afraid it will be difficult to complete it in the future, but Cao Cao has already connected Xuzhou and Yanzhou, and the next possible time is to focus on Qingzhou, which has not yet been touched by a few princes, especially the remnants of the Yellow Turban Army here will be a not weak force when integrated, he must be salivating, if he succeeds, In history, before the Battle of Guandu, the situation of Yuan Qiang and Cao Cao was weak was about to change here, and Cao Cao completely suppressed Yuan Shao.
Of course, although Lu Bu helped Cao Cao, it was only unintentional, and the already paper-weak alliance foundation after Luoyang was greatly weakened, and the internal contradictions gradually increased, and Lu Bu and Cao Cao would sooner or later go on opposite sides.
After Cao Cao left, Jia Xu and Liangle, who temporarily retreated to the compartment, came out again, when they saw Cao Cao before, Lu Bu asked them to avoid it, and now when they came out, Lu Bu asked with a smile: "What do you think about Wen He and Bo Yu?" β
Jia Xu smiled and said: "It seems that this Cao Mengde is very jealous of the lord, and it can also be said that this holy decree has disrupted his proportions, otherwise he would not have done such a senseless thing." β
Liangle said: "Wen He thinks this Cao Mengde's move is meaningless? I think it's not necessarily ......."
"Oh?" Lu Bu's eyes lit up, although since the Xiongnu had been shining under his own hands since the incident, Liangle was far inferior to Jia Xu and Chen Gong. But Lu Bu can also see his growth and maturity without knowing extinction, compared to Jia Xu and the others who have long formed their own set of thinking patterns, Liangle makes him have more expectations, "I want to hear the details......"
Seeing that Lu Bu took himself so seriously, Liangle's expression was also a little stricter, and he said: "Becoming the third prince of the Han Dynasty, although it can't be said that he is a great minister, but it is not far away. is also as Cao Mengde said, Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind, and the lord will inevitably become a thorn in the eyes and a thorn in the flesh of more and more people from now on. And the previous entry into the alliance lord was recommended by Na Cao Mengde. Therefore, in order to avoid outsiders associating it with the lord. The only way to part ways is to show outsiders, this is one of them. β
"Heh......" turned out to be just one of them, but I have to say that there is some truth. Lu Bu smiled. Motioned for him to continue.
The more good happiness is spoken, the more faith is attained. continued: "The second is also very simple, this is Cao Mengde's desire to paralyze the lord in this way, and it is the lord who relaxes his vigilance. In fact, it has been deployed in secret. Of course, for this, presumably Wen Hou will not be worried, because in Luoyang, we have also been prepared, is Le right, Jia Wenhe? β
The last half of the sentence was aimed at Jia Xu, Jia Xu nodded, Liangle turned around and saw Lu Bu staring at him, his heart couldn't help but tremble, it was really Lu Bu's gaze was too oppressive, even Cao Cao didn't dare to say that he could hold on for a long time under his gaze, and he soon had a thought in his heart, and then he bowed to Lu Bu and said respectfully: "Wen Hou is afraid that he misunderstood what Le Fangcai said, Wen He did things for Wen Hou, and did not leak anything to Le, but Le inadvertently learned some things, plus some speculations, so there is such a saying. β
Lu Bu's face was a little pale, but the cold glow in his eyes still made his conscience frightened, every time he had some smug feelings, he would always be drunk by Lu Bu like this, but I have to say that it was Lu Bu's direct and even somewhat domineering reminders that made him grow a lot compared to the original, at least compared to the original time when he needed to rely on several years of preparation to be able to make a great contribution as a step under Lu Bu's hands, The present happiness is just a lack of experience and the opportunity to direct one side independently, or with the addition of a somewhat unstable mind like the present one.
"And third," Liangle continued, after taking a while to stabilize his mind and adjust his feelings, "This is also a test for Cao Mengde for the Son of Heaven, to test what position the lord occupies in the heart of the Son of Heaven, and whether the Son of Heaven will risk the criticism of the court, rather than pushing the lord to the seat of the prince." β
Lu Bu pursed his lips and was noncommittal, but Jia Xu smiled there: "Let's wait and see what happens, although Wen Hou is bound to win this time, but now is not a good time to make a move." β
β¦β¦
On the evening of this day, Jia Xu went to the gate of Lu Bu's mansion again, and when he saw Lu Bu in the lobby, he smiled and said: "It's quite interesting to watch the infighting of the Yuan brothers. β
"Huh?" Lu Bu didn't know what was going on, so Jia Xu elaborated to him: "Just today, at the same time that Cao Mengde came to find Wen Hou, Yuan Highway also ran to find Yuan Benchu, I heard that he picked up his sword and went violently, but in the end he was driven out, and he should have broken up unhappily." β
Lu Bu opened his heart and laughed: "Yuan Shu, that idiot, must have heard about a certain matter of receiving a holy decree to crown the three dukes, so he was jealous and ran to unite with Yuan Benchu, wanting to obstruct a certain promotion to the rank of lieutenant in the court, but unfortunately the words are not speculative for more than half a sentence, where can Yuan Shao agree at this time, he has been secretly contacting the Yuan family, how can he come out in public now, this is not against a certain person, or slapping the little emperor in the face." encountered such a strange thing, it is estimated that Yuan Benchu was depressed enough, even if he has worked hard to cultivate his qi these days, he has to be directly broken by this younger brother. Just through Jia Xu's words, he has speculated so much, and it is basically similar to some of the things that Jia Xu has learned, I have to say that this is also because he now has studied and understood Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu and even Cao Cao and others, and it is not strange to speculate so much based on these.
Of course, Jia Xu already knew the general meaning of "wonderful" from Lu Bu, so he couldn't help but laugh at this time, and then said: "It is indeed not much different from what Wen Hou said, and Yuan Highway also found something when he came to Yuan, Yuan Benchu secretly made small moves, which made it not too smooth for him to contact the old things of the family, because those who really had weight were all won over by Yuan Benchu, and Yuan Shu was too appealing compared to him." Therefore, he wanted to take this opportunity to pull Yuan Benchu out to wade through this troubled water together, but unfortunately Yuan Benchu was not fooled. β
"Who called this Yuan Shu is the son-in-law, but now the previous generation of the Yuan family has died, probably only Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu and Yuan Yi are left, among which Yuan Shao is the most powerful, and those so-called protΓ©gΓ©s of the Yuan family are actually a group of wall grass, and they will fall when they see the situation." Speaking of this, Lu Bu sneered, then thought of something again, and looked at Jia Xu, "Wen Hou is here to visit, isn't it just for this matter?" β
"I heard that tomorrow is the court meeting?"
Lu Bu nodded, "Yes, this is the first court meeting after Dong Zhuo's death and the Son of Heaven is really in the court, and the significance is extraordinary." β
"Then Wen Hou should be careful, I heard that Cao Mengde has contacted a large number of ministers, maybe ......"
"Hmph, there is no maybe, Taiwei must be in someone's pocket!" (To be continued......)
