The sun is shining, the spring is full of joy, the official road is on both sides of a large wheat field and mulberry bamboo, after a spring rain, the spring wheat in the field is lush, a spring breeze blows, the green wheat seedlings are undulating, and a fragrance of malt hits the nose. In the distance, you can see people planting in twos and threes in the fields.

Not long after the middle of the day, there were many cars and horses on the road, and there were many pedestrians. There are Confucian scholars who walk in single clothes, businessmen who are dressed in literary clothes, and brave heroes who wear black clothes. Because the world is restless, the roads are not quiet, and pedestrians are often equipped with short knives and guns. In the bustling crowd, there are several war horses slowly moving forward on the official road, one of which is as red as charcoal fire, which is particularly eye-catching.

After walking for more than half an hour, Ma Tengle raised his handknaples and bowed his hand to Lu Bu: "Fengxian, just send it here!" ”

Lu Bu saw that it was not too early, if he walked slowly like this, I was afraid that it would delay the trip of Ma Teng and others, and he also arched his hand at the moment: "Brother Shoucheng, take care!" ”

After Lu Bu finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Ma Chao, and saw that Ma Chao looked like he was out of his mind, and shook his head helplessly.

Ma Teng, as a father, has already said what he should say, but Lu Lingqi does not agree to marry, what can he do, he can't rob it. At that moment, he could only pat the eldest son on the shoulder, and said helplessly: "Meng Qi, let's go!" ”

Ma Chao remembered that Lu Lingqi once told him that when she grew up, she would marry a general like her father, but in fact, these are not difficult for him. If there is chaos today, the so-called "Han court" is only left with a weak monarch and a group of old ministers.

The rebellion of the ten permanent servants, the rebellion of Dong Zhuo and many other wars gradually declined, and it was miserable. In recent years, the Han Court has been in the hands of Dong Zhuo, and the Han Emperor has become a useless puppet, surviving under Dong Zhuo's claws, and his past career has long been full of thorns. Therefore, many local clans have put away their minions, gathered their own children under their wings, and cautiously observed the current situation.

There are many young people like Ma Chao, they have all passed the age of weak crowns, but they are still dormant in various places, quietly or anxiously waiting for the time when their wings are overturned, although Ma Chao is not famous today, but he believes that in the near future, he will definitely become a general like Lu Bu now, so he is not in a hurry, but he doesn't know if Lu Lingqi will wait.

A hurried sound of horses' hooves interrupted his train of thought, and Ma Chao looked fixedly, but it was Lu Lingqi who had already rushed to him on horseback. Lu Lingqi pursed her lips and smiled sweetly at Ma Chao: "Next!" ”

Ma Chao took the wooden gun thrown by Lu Lingqi, raised his head and grinned: "Lingqi! ”

Lu Lingqi gently wiped the sweat on her forehead, walked up to Ma Chao with a smile, and stared at Ma Chao with apricot eyes.

Ma Chao immediately smiled, staring at Lu Lingqi intently, to see what she wanted to say, but Lu Lingqi's next action almost didn't make him faint with anger, only to see Lu Lingqi cross Ma Chao, ride the horse and walk to Ma Teng's front salute: "The road is far away, please take care of your body uncle!" ”

Ma Teng couldn't help laughing: "Okay, Lingqi must practice marksmanship diligently, and lead the troops to fight with Meng Qi in the future, wouldn't it be wonderful?" ”

Lu Lingqi covered her mouth and smiled, glanced at Ma Chao with disgust, and twisted her head to the side: "My brother once said that women should embroider and raise silkworms, and they can't learn guns and sticks like men!" ”

When Ma Chao heard this, he felt a sense of loss in his heart, and swallowed all the words he had prepared for several days back into his stomach, and his throat was as uncomfortable as stuffing a ball of goose feathers. Taking a deep breath, he stopped beside Lu Lingqi and said: "I have changed my opinion, women can not only practice martial arts, but also become generals, I hope that my wife can fight with me on the battlefield in the future, just like Yin Shi Niang, the wife of Li Jing, the general of Shang!" After finishing speaking, he took off the mutton fat jade on his waist and handed it to Lu Lingqi: "Put it away, when I become a general like your father one day, I will come to marry you!" ”

Lu Bu's face darkened in an instant, and at this moment, it seemed to be familiar, as if Jiang Wei and Huang Wudie had received the jade pendant, and when they saw their daughter receiving the jade pendant, Lu Bu urged him to immediately urge and urged: "It's not early, hurry up!" ”

Ma Chao nodded, glanced at Lu Lingqi deeply again before reluctantly turning away.

"Father, do you think my brother will lie to me?" Seeing Ma Chao drifting away until he couldn't see their shadows, Lu Lingqi turned his head and hurriedly asked Lu Bu.

"Now you know you're in a hurry? Why did you go earlier? Lu Bu didn't answer, but asked rhetorically.

Lu Lingqi glared at Lu Bu, and then galloped towards Longxian, Lu Bu looked at the back of Lu Lingqi leaving, turned his head to Cheng Lian and said, "Go back to the camp"

When Lu Bu returned to the camp, it was almost afternoon, and not long after he entered the gate, he bumped into the anxious Jia Xu, seeing Lu Bu coming, Jia Xu hurriedly stepped forward and handed a letter to Lu Bu's hand: "Lord, this is sent by 800 miles of fine work, take a look!" ”

Lu Bu took the letter, hurriedly opened it and read it, and when he read the contents of the letter, his sword eyebrows raised in vain, and he ordered Cheng Lian: "Go and send a few gentlemen to come, just say that I have a discussion!" ”

Seeing Lu Bu's solemn face, Cheng Lian didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly dispatched his guards to the camp tents of Chen Gong, Cheng Yu, Li Ru and others to give orders.

Lu Bu and Jia Xu didn't wait too long in the big tent, Chen Gong and the others came to the tent one after another, and only after saluting each other did they find a place to sit on the ground, Lu Bu saw that everyone had almost arrived, and he didn't delay, and said directly: "Dong Zhuo is dead"

Lu Bu's words were like a boulder crashing down on a calm lake, which immediately caused an uproar, especially Li Ru's reaction was the most intense, Lu Bu's words were like a thunderbolt bursting in his brain, and his body shook upright, and his face turned pale in an instant.

In vain, Li Ru raised his head suddenly, his eyes were bloodshot, and said to Lu Bushi: "Dare to ask Wen Hou, how did Dong Gong die?" ”

Lu Bu shook his head slightly, just kneaded his temples with his fingers, and the corners of his sharp eyes already had crow's feet that could not be concealed: "As mentioned in the comprehensive letter, Wang Yun induced Dong Feng to go to Weiyang Hall to receive Zen in the name of the Son of Heaven Chan Rang, and Dong Gong went to Weiyang Hall to go to the court meeting under the escort of heavy soldiers. Then he was slashed and killed by Yu Linwei in the door! ”

In his previous life, most people thought that he killed Dong Zhuo for Diao Chan, but only he knew that killing Dong Zhuo was forced by the situation, and Diao Chan's reason was only superficial and did not touch the root. He wants to kill Dong Zhuo, mainly because his relationship with Dong Zhuo is too fragile, and then it can be extended to the contradiction between the Bingzhou Army and the Xiliang Army, in this contradiction, the Bingzhou Army has been in a passive situation, and it may be eaten by the Xiliang Army at any time. Now that Dong Zhuo has been defeated, the grievances between him and Dong Zhuo in his past and present lives have disappeared, so when he received the news of Dong Zhuo's death, although he was prepared, he was still caught off guard by the news.

And Lu Bu's words also made Li Ru's face covered with frost: "It's him, how can it be him?" At the beginning, Dong Gong let Li Su and Dong Huang take control of the forbidden army and let him increase his official ranks, but he didn't expect to suffer from them, traitors and thieves! ”

Jia Xu got up slowly, walked to Lu Bu, picked up the letter that Lu Bu held on the table, and after a while, he put down the letter gently, and said: "Wang Yun, this person, has a strong and vicious personality, at first he was afraid of Dong Zhuo's obscenity, and has been holding back, in order to kill Dong Zhuo, he can start from the major situation, Dong Zhuo died, he instantly became the hero who saved the Han from the critical survival, and became the leader of the court. ”

Lu Bu, who was kneading his temples, was shocked when he heard this, opened his eyes suddenly, and looked at Jia Xu incredulously, because things were really as Jia Xu expected, in his previous life, Wang Yun in order to establish his personal prestige, rectified the supergang, and thought that Dong Zhuo was a national thief, Cai Yong was Han Chen, and the national thief was executed, Han Chen did not like it, and decided that Cai Yong was Dong Zhuo's comrade, and Cai Yong was executed in prison, and Cai Yong was killed together with Ding Yanming.

"Lord" Jia Xu turned around sharply and said to Lu Bushi: "Wang Yun is arbitrary and arbitrary, and he will be defeated soon, and the lord should make a decision early!" ”

Lu Bu's fingers tapped solemnly on a few cases, signaling Jia Xu to continue.

"The soldiers go out to help the wind, and the princes are ordered by the Son of Heaven!" Jia Xu's flat eyes flashed with a sharp light, as if a poisonous snake was poised to spit out a letter: "Dong Zhuo is newly dead, taking advantage of the unstable Xiliang army, why don't the lord wave his commander Chang'an, and obey the order of the Son of Heaven!" ”

Lu Bu was slightly moved, at this time he was like Dong Zhuo at the beginning, and Jia Xu was Li Ru at the beginning, such a proposal made Lu Bu excited.

Chen Gong immediately put forward a different opinion: "I don't agree with Wen He's opinion, what reason should the lord send troops to enter King Qin, Beijing?" However, the imperial court did not issue the edict of King Qin, we are a division out of the nameless, if the lord rashly sends troops, it will be a tongue to others, people who know think that the lord is the king of Qin, and those who do not know still think that the lord rebelled. ”

"I agree with what Gongtai said, we finally laid the foundation in Xiliang, how can we say give up, even if Chang'an is really as the text and analysis, but I'm afraid it will take a year or two to form, we can't wait for Chang'an's King Qin's edict in the past two years, right?" Cheng Yu quickly grasped the point.

Lu Bu nodded, feeling that Jia Xu and Chen Gong were reasonable, just when he was hesitant and hesitant, he saw Li Ru spilling the wine on the table: "The arrogant soldiers of Guanxi are rampant in Chang'an, Dong Gong is eating meat and drinking in the Han Palace, and the princes of the Quartet are watching from the wall, and now the Han family is like the wine on the ground, why does Wen Hou still jump in?" Now Wenhou has formed an alliance with Ma Teng, as long as Han Sui and Liang Shuang are driven away, this Xiliang is the world of Wenhou and Ma Teng. ”

Lu Bu's brows were almost twisted. He is struggling in his heart at this time, now all his decisions are related to the future of the state army, so he is not allowed to think about it, Jia Xu's proposal is very tempting, can make him quickly become a very popular minister, but the danger should not be underestimated, the current Chang'an, not only the Luoyang faction and the Chang'an faction, but also many officials in between, some of them are towards the Han family, and some people hope to gain Wang Yun's favor; There are also people who swing between the two factions with ambiguous attitudes, they are not in positions of power, but they are in the hope of gaining a chance to be promoted in the battle.

So Lu Bu waved Chang'an, these people will definitely jump out to support him, but everything has advantages and disadvantages, he has the support of those centrists, but he has to fight with the Luoyang faction and the Chang'an faction, those scholars are all insidious and cunning, I can't guarantee whether they will stab them in the back. To sum up, Lu Bu felt that Chen Gong's advice was more secure, but even if he didn't wave his mentorship in Chang'an, he would pour a fire on Chang'an, and what Jia Xu said to Li Dao and Guo Yan in his previous life would be conveyed by me in this life.

After finalizing the attention, Lu Bu finally did not adopt Jia Xu's opinion, Jia Xu heard Lu Bu's final decision, and nodded with a smile: "In this case, next month, we will have to start preparing for the war to recover the four counties of Longxi!" ”

Chen Gong scolded with a smile: "Good you Jia Wenhe, you dare to joke about such a thing"

Jia Xu shook his head and smiled at Chen Gong's scolding.

The reunion lasted until night, when most of the people said goodbye, Lu Bu left Cheng Lian alone, as for Lu Bu to explain Cheng Lian, everyone had no way of knowing, they only knew that since that day, they have never seen Cheng Lian appear.
