Chapter 120: Trapped Beast
In the lobby of Wenhou Mansion, the candles are brilliant. Although it was stormy outside, the exquisitely decorated lobby was full of spring.
A glamorous and stunning woman, wearing a long red dress, was dancing in the center of the lobby. I saw her beautiful eyes, clever smile, willow limbs swaying, and thousands of postures; Every movement, every look is soul-stirring, and it makes people's hearts sway. Even if you use a sinking fish and a goose, the shy flowers of the closed moon are not enough to describe one-ten-thousandth of its beauty......
This woman is none other than the stunning woman who was called Diao Chan by later generations. Her ancestral home was originally Hedong, her surname was Ren Mingzhao, and her son Hongchang was sold to Situ Wang Yun's mansion as a courtesan because of her poor family, when she was thirteen years old. Wang Yun saw that she was beautiful and beautiful, and that she was good at singing and dancing, and that she was proficient in all kinds of pianos, so he accepted her as a righteous daughter and cultivated her.
In the sixth year of Zhongping, Dong Zhuo, the warlord of Xiliang, was invited by the general He Jin to enter Beijing to kill the eunuchs. Before arriving in Luoyang, He Jin was murdered by eunuchs, and Dong Zhuo then entered Beijing and gradually controlled the government with a series of iron-fisted methods. First abolished the young emperor Liu Bian in the front, and then sent people to kill the young emperor and the Empress Dowager He in the back. and bullied the temple, killed the ministers indiscriminately, plundered the soldiers, and raped women, making the chickens and dogs in the land of Sizhou restless and complaining.
In order to crusade against the rebellious Dong Zhuo, the princes of the Eighteenth Route of Kwantung elected Yuan Shao as the leader of the alliance, wanting to eradicate this traitor who brought disaster to the country and the people in one fell swoop. Unexpectedly, the princes from all walks of life acted independently, and the people's hearts were not aligned, so they could not form a joint force, and the crusade against Dong Zhuo ended in vain.
Seeing the sad face of his father-in-law who cared about the Han family, Ren Zhaomao recommended himself. Under the pseudonym Diao Chan, he entered the Taishi Mansion to divide the thief Dong Zhuo and his tiger wolf son Lu Bu. This year, Diao Chan was seventeen years old, and Lu Bu was thirty-two years old.
For the beautiful Diao Chan, Lu Bu fell in love at first sight, and gradually hated Dong Zhuo who snatched love from the sword. In the end, under the discord of Diao Chan, he joined forces with Situ Wang Yun, Shangshu Servant Shooter Sun Rui, Sili Captain Huang Wan and others to kill the traitor Dong Zhuo, and all the people in the world were boiling, running to celebrate, and the whole world cheered.
After a long time, the fake drama between Diao Chan and Lu Bu was really done. For tall and handsome Xiao. The brave and combative Lu Bu gradually fell in love. became Lu Bu's concubine, and followed him to the world, from Chang'an to Puyang, from Puyang to Xiapi. I never give up. The relationship between husband and wife is getting stronger and stronger.
this year. Diao Chan is twenty-four years old, which is a good time for the peerless generation. The only thing that made Lu Bu regret was somehow. For so many years, the husband and wife have not been able to give birth to a son and a half daughter, which has always made him regret it, but he is helpless.
In recent days, Cao's army attacked the city very urgently, and Lu Bu was worried, so he drank with his wife Yan and Diao Chan at home every day to relieve his boredom, and Diao Chan sang and danced to help him.
"Good dancing, beautiful dancing. Over the years, although the age of the lady has increased day by day, the dancing posture has not regressed, so that after the husband saw it, the sorrow was suddenly swept away! ”
After Diao Chan danced, Lu Bu high-fived and applauded, and loudly beckoned Diao Chan to come to his side to eat and drink, "Madame come to me, let my husband reward you with a pot of wine to drink!" ”
"Yes, Sister Zhao's dancing posture not only did not regress, but it is better than before, sit down and eat wine, don't get tired!"
Although his wife Yan was a little jealous of Lu Bu's love for Diao Chan, she also knew that her appearance was not enough to compete with Ren's favor, and it would be a blessing to be able to coax Lu Bu to be happy, and to keep her status in the main room. Therefore, not only is there no domineering housewife momentum for Diao Chan, but she often lowers her eyebrows to please this partial house.
The only thing that made Yan feel fortunate was that he gave birth to a daughter to Lu Bu, who is sixteen years old this year. And between Ren and Lu Bu, it seems that there will be no more blossoming and fruiting days, maybe God is destined that Lu Bu only has this one daughter in his life!
"Pour wine for Mrs. Ren!" Yan turned his head and instructed the maid behind him to pour wine for Diao Chan, looking like a sister.
"Thank you sister for your concern." Diao Chan smiled and saluted Yan's appointment.
At this moment, a guard walked in and bent down to report: "Qi Yu Wen waits, the two generals Gao Shun and Zhang Liao ask to see you!" ”
Lu Bu raised his eyebrows, his cold eyes contracted, and he asked in a deep voice: "It's so late, they can't defend the city well." What are you doing here? ”
"The villain doesn't dare to ask more!"
"No, we'll talk about it tomorrow!"
Lu Bu waved his hand impatiently, he had not slept well in the past few nights. I just watched Diao Chan's song and dance, and I was in a good mood, I wanted to have a good night's sleep, but these two guys came to bother me again, and after listening to their report, there is a chance that I will lose sleep again tonight.
"Wen Hou, the two generals Gao and Zhang are loyal to you, so you can meet them, right?" Diao Chan persuaded with a worried face, "Chen Gongtai was so angry that he didn't enter Wenhou Mansion for a month because of your refusal to send troops before. If you refuse to see the two generals again this time, I'm afraid it will make them feel cold? ”
Lu Bu frowned, his hooked nose shrugged, and he looked like he was looking at the world: "Can you still turn against them?" I have a red rabbit horse, I have a Fang Tian painting halberd, even if I am the enemy of the whole world, what is there to fear? ”
"Meet Wen Hou!"
Before the guards went out to report, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun had already broken in, came to the lobby, and saluted Lu Bu together.
"Huh...... The two generals are here, sit down and have a drink! Seeing this, Yan got up with a smile on his face and greeted.
Lu Bu's face sank, and he shouted: "You two are so bold, you dare to trespass without an order, don't you also want to learn from Hao Meng and Hou Cheng?" ”
"The military situation is urgent, and I have to do it as a last resort, and I am still waiting for forgiveness!" Gao Shun apologized again. Zhang Liao stood aside and was silent.
Lu Bu took a sip of the wine glass in front of him, and snorted coldly: "Why do you have to break into my mansion late at night?" Can't we wait until tomorrow to discuss it? ”
Gao Shun had no fear, stood in the lobby and said: "The military situation is urgent, and there is no room for delay. The siege of Cao's army is very urgent, and if our army has no countermeasures, we are only afraid that the city will not be protected for three or two days. The only way to do this is to respond to the sneak attack of the city gate tonight in the view of the way, and perhaps you can win a big victory by surprise, so that you can definitely slightly frustrate the spirit of the Cao army, encourage the heart of the army in Picheng, and hold on for a while! ”
With a "pop", the wine glass shattered, and it was thrown out by Lu Bu.
"It's nonsense, disturbing the morale of the army. With me Lu Fengxian here, even if 100,000 Cao troops are here, they don't want to break through the city gate! We will defend the city to the death, and when Cao's army runs out of food, it will inevitably retreat. The two of you persuaded me to sneak attack late at night, he Cao Cao is good at using soldiers, how can he not guard against our army robbing the camp? In case you fall into an ambush, you can't advance or retreat, and you want to defend the city again, and it's too late to regret it! Lu Bu angrily slapped the table and reprimanded loudly.
"Wen Hou, the last general agrees with General Yuan Xun. It is impossible for Cao Mengde to be on guard every day, and Cao Jun will inevitably relax his vigilance as days go by. Tonight's sneak attack, maybe we can win a big victory, this is our only chance to turn the tide of the battle, please wait for thought, I am willing to go out of the city with General Gao to rob the camp! Zhang Liao stood on Gao Shun's side, hugged his wrist and saluted Lu Bu, arguing with reason.
Lu Bu was already extremely impatient, took the wine glass handed by Diao Chan, drank it all, and shouted loudly: "There are only 10,000 people in the city, and if you are ambushed by the Cao army and lose most of it, what will I do to defend the city?" Needless to say, no one is allowed to go to war, and they are to hold the gates. The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and after a while, Cao's army will run out of food and will inevitably retreat. In this way, we can keep Xiapi! ”
At this moment, his eyes were red, like a beast that had been trapped for too long, ready to choose someone to devour, how could Lu Fengxian, who was once invincible in the world, fall to such a state? Trapped in a lonely city who was bullied by him? The end of the hero, as Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, said, "The times are not good, and the sable cicada is what it is?" ”
"Wen Hou ......" Gao Shun knelt down on one knee, ready to die.
"Stand down!"
Lu Bu was furious, and stood up with a "whew", Gao Shun, who was comparable to the height of eight feet, was a head taller, and was powerful and inviolable. kicked out, kicked the table in front of him to the ground, and the dishes fell to the ground, "crackling", and the ground was in a mess.
"Gao Shun, if it weren't for the fact that you and Zhang Liao have followed me for many years, I would definitely have to blame you two for eighty military sticks each tonight! I've been unable to sleep for countless nights, so don't bother me anymore, okay? Let Ben Wen wait for a good night's sleep, climb to the top of the city tomorrow morning, and kill the enemy in person, okay? Lu Bu strode up to Gao Shun, grabbed his shoulders with both hands and shook him back and forth, roaring hysterically.
Looking at Lu Bu's dejected appearance, Zhang Liao sighed in his heart, and his last expectations for Lu Bu were dashed. He bowed down and said, "In that case, the last general will retire!" ”
Lu Bu staggered back a few steps from Gao Shun suddenly, turned around, refused to look at the two of them again, and waved his hand: "Get out!" ”
"Yes...... The end will roll, roll, roll......"
Gao Shun's heart was almost dripping blood at this moment, and he couldn't imagine that he was naked, and he had followed him Lu Bu for more than ten years, and in the end, he actually got the word "roll", which was worse than killing him......
When he went out, Gao Shun didn't know how to get out, he vaguely felt like he was being helped out by Zhang Liao, one foot deep and one shallow foot in the dark, letting the rain drench his whole body, and the whole person was almost numb.
"Yuan Xun, what are you going to do next?"
Seeing that Gao Shun's mood had stabilized slightly, Zhang Liao sighed and asked. An idea suddenly popped up in my heart, since Yuan Gongzi loves talents, why don't I give him a big gift?
Gao Shun smiled bitterly, raised his face, let the cold rain pour on his face, and said with a smile: "The defeat is decided, and there is no way to return to the sky, what else can I do?" Wait for death with Wen Hou! ”
Zhang Liao smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and patted Gao Shun's shoulder: "Liao has a plan, please ask Brother Yuan Xun to follow me to the mansion to talk about it!" ”
"Is that true?" Listening to Zhang Liao's words, Gao Shun's eyes glowed with excitement, as if a dying man had grasped a life-saving straw. (To be continued......)
