Chapter 207: Lu Bu has a son
The two of them were very moved when they heard this, both of them were born in a down-and-out small family, and they have been living a life of eating their old books for many years, if they don't go out to make a living, I'm afraid that even eating will be a problem in a few years. Besides, a manly man, who doesn't want to go out and do a career, looking for a master to serve, is the only choice.
Guo Jiadao: "What Brother Gongda said is very true, some time ago, Cao Mengde of Yanzhou sent someone to invite, and his words were very sincere. However, I felt that it was difficult for Cao Ying to achieve a big thing, so I politely refused. As Brother Gongda said, defecting to the champion Hou is indeed a clear way, but there is no one to recommend, and there is no gift to meet! ”
Xun You was overjoyed and said: "The champion Hou is thirsty for talent, and the world knows that he sent people to Yingchuan to find Fengxian and Zixu as early as four years ago, but he returned without success. Today, you are also invited to follow the will of the champion Hou, please take a look! After speaking, he took out two silk silks from his sleeve and handed them to the two of them.
The two were flattered, and now Ma Chao's identity is different from the past, and he can personally write a letter to solicit them, and send confidants like Xun You to invite them, which is enough to show his sincerity. After looking at it, the two glanced at each other, nodded slightly, Guo Jia hugged his fists and said: "Back then, General Fubo Ma Yuan once said to Emperor Guangwu: 'In today's world, not only the monarch chooses the minister, but also the minister chooses the king' Since the champion Hou has taken a fancy to us, if we live in seclusion in the mountains again, I am afraid that we will miss the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but there is no gift of sight, and Harvest has no face!" ”
Du Xi also nodded and said: "What Feng Xiao said is very true, I can't hide it, the two of us have long intended to rush to the capital to meet each other, and now we have to take a fancy to it, and we are unarmed, how dare we be cheeky and occupy a high position!" ”
Xun You nodded and said, "What the two of you said is not unreasonable, but there is a good opportunity to make meritorious service in front of you, I wonder if you two dare to do it?" ”
Guo Jia's heart moved, and he smiled: "Could it be that Gongda wants the two of me to pretend to defect to Lu Bu and help Lu Bu destroy Cao Ying?" ”
"Yes!" Xun You laughed and said: "Those who know me, Guo Fengxiao also!" Don't hide it from the two of you, in addition to inviting the two of you to come out this time, I also have a task to persuade Lu Bu to send troops to attack Yanzhou. And Lu Bu is just a reckless man, how can he be Cao Mengde's opponent? Just when the two of them are needed to come up with advice, when the success is achieved, it is the time for you to make meritorious contributions. ”
Guo Jia nodded and said: "Cao Ying is hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban thieves in one fell swoop, and now although the army is numerous, it is just a bluff, and it is not difficult to destroy it." Ran Gongda should not forget that there is still Yuan Shao in the south, if Yuan Shao is willing to lend grain to Cao Ying, can Lu Buyan be Cao Ying's opponent? ”
Xun You said: "Cao Ying has Yuan Shao to borrow grain, and my lord can also lend grain to Lu Bu, and Lu Bu has great talents such as Fengxiao and Zixu to give him advice, why worry about Cao Ying's immortality?" Besides, Yuan Shao probably doesn't want to see Cao Ying become bigger, so he may not be able to help Cao Ying with all his might. ”
Guo Jia groaned slightly, hugged his fists and said: "In this case, it is better to be respectful than to obey fate, if the champion Hou Ken does his best to provide supplies for Lu Bu, plus we are maneuvering from it, it is not difficult to destroy Cao Ying!" ”
Xun You was overjoyed, and the three of them were drinking and discussing specific matters. The next time, Xun You took a few entourages and came to the county government with the edict of the Son of Heaven to ask to see Lu Bu.
Speaking of which, the two know each other, but their friendship is extremely complicated. At the beginning, Xun You had planned with He Hao, Wu Qiong and others to assassinate Dong Zhuo, but after the matter was revealed, Dong Zhuo handed over the task of tracking down Yu Dang to his henchman Lu Bu. And Xun You's imprisonment was given by Lu Bu, and his ability to live was also given by Lu Bu, because according to Dong Zhuo's meaning, Xun You's ten heads were also cut off. Lu Bu knew Xun You's talent very well, and he couldn't bear to kill him, so he tried his best to save the lives of Xun You and others.
When Lu Bu heard that Xun You was visiting, he thought that he had come to meet him, so he immediately ordered someone to set up a banquet to entertain him. After the greetings, Lu Bu hugged his fists and said: "In the past, there were many offenses, and Bu couldn't help himself, so please ask Gong Da Mo to blame!" ”
Xun You said: "Wen Hou is polite, if there is no Wen Hou to destroy the thief, you will die in prison sooner or later, why should you take the past to heart?" But I don't know if Wen Hou is wishful at the moment? ”
Lu Bu sighed slightly, and said: "Why should Gongda ask knowingly, Bu is swimming in shallow water now, and the tiger is falling in Pingyang, if it weren't for Yuan Shao's repeated support of grain and grass, I am afraid that the city would have been attacked by Cao thieves earlier!" only hates Ma Chao's thief and deceit, if he hadn't arranged for Wu Kuang and others to take refuge in Li Ru in advance, Luoyang City could be easily broken? ”
Xun You smiled and said: "Don't hide Wen Hou, I came here to show Wen Hou a clear path on the order of the general, if Wen Hou is willing to abandon his previous suspicions, it is not difficult to make a comeback!" ”
When Lu Bu heard this, his face changed, he stood up suddenly, and said angrily: "If I hadn't listened to Ma Chao's words and forcibly accepted Cao Thief's two concubines, why would I have to fight to the death with Cao Thief!" Now he wants to deceive me again, but he doesn't want to! ”
"Wait for the anger to be stopped! Wait for the anger to stop! Xun You got up and persuaded: "The general has a good intention, but Wen Hou misunderstood." I heard that the Bian family is now pregnant, and the baby is about to give birth, I don't know if there is such a thing? ”
Lu Bu's face suddenly softened when he heard this, and said: "Yes, half a month ago, I gave birth to a son named Lu Chao, and you can tell Ma Chao about it." For the sake of my Lu family, I don't care about him, but if he dares to deceive me Lu Bu again, don't blame a certain family for sending Luoyang! ”
Xun You's face twitched for a while, and his heart said that this Lu Bu is really a little interesting, he has the name of the world's first fierce general, but his heart surname is no different from that of a child, and he said at the moment: "Wen Hou's words will be passed on in the future, but I am here to report the good news to Wen Hou." ”
Lu Budao: "What a joy? ”
Xun You took out the edict of the Son of Heaven and presented it with both hands, and said loudly: "The general remembered that Wen Hou had the merit of eliminating the thief and the king of Qin, and specially expressed the Son of Heaven, and named Wen Hou as the pastor of Yanzhou, leading the post of general of Zhengdong, and the military governor of Yan and Xuzhou!" General Feng's wife Yan is the Jun! Decree to love Lu Lingqi as Dongping Jun! ”
Lu Bu opened it and took a look, and sure enough, there was a jade seal on it, which was definitely not fake. This jade seal was brought into the dry well by the female official of the jade seal in the rebellion of the ten permanent servants, Ma Chao saw it with his own eyes, and he couldn't get it in a hurry, until he killed Li Ru and others to occupy Luoyang City.
Lu Bu was overjoyed at first, then immediately calmed down, and sneered: "Ma Chao's thief controls the government and coerces the Son of Heaven to order the princes, what can he do if he is a king of Yanzhou?" It's just a matter of moving the mouth, for example, who doesn't know that the Cao thief has pocketed Yanzhou, the middle of my hand is less than 30,000, and the grain and grass are not more than 10,000, how to fight against the Cao thief? If a certain person accepts it, Cao Thief will lead the army to attack the nest, and the new and old grudges will be counted together, so won't he fall into Ma Chao's annihilation plan again? This kind of trick to deceive a three-year-old child is still acceptable, this Yanzhou Mu and General Zhengdong, I Lu Bu can't afford it. ”
Xun Yu said: "Wen waits for the difference in this statement, my lord has always taken it as his responsibility to maintain the majesty of the imperial court, and Cao Thief led the Yanzhou pastor himself, without the consent of the imperial court, and his name is not right." In addition, the Yanzhou Mu and Zhengdong generals assigned by the imperial court to Wen Hou are by no means vain, and the imperial court will vigorously support the generals to control Yanzhou, and at the same time provide certain support for soldiers and horses, grain and grass!
