Lu Bu lingered twice at the Empress Dowager He, and said intimate words for so long, when he came out, the more leaky sound of the ugly time had already been heard for a long time.

There are no clouds in the sky, the crescent moon has long been hanging in the west, in the courtyard, there is only the glimmer of stars and moons, there are many flowers and trees, and it is difficult to find someone here for a secret meeting.

If he hadn't happened to hear the whispers of the two women, Lu Bu wouldn't have noticed anyone, and the whispering continued even when he was angry.

"How's the house guard?"

"No guards!"

The other voice seemed to be very surprised, and was stunned for a while, before continuing to ask, "Where do you stay on weekdays?" ”

"Not sure, now it's mostly at the second lady's."

Hearing this, Lu Bu was already convinced that the other party's target was him, not anyone else.

This discovery made him secretly relieved in his heart.

Aiming at him, he thinks it's easier to do, if these people really target their families, it will make it difficult for him to take care of it.

Just as Lu Bu was groaning, the whispering was almost over, and the previous voice only whispered to be careful, that is, it didn't sound again, and then a slight footstep came, indicating that they were preparing to leave.

This is a backyard, and people can sneak in, of course, because the latter is in charge, and the latter knows his routine so well that he has obviously been mixed in for some time.

Suddenly, two figures appeared, Lu Bufu was low, and he did not act rashly, looking like this, it should be the latter taking the former and going outside.

From his own home, of course, Lu Bu is as familiar as the lines in his palm, and with his eyes closed, he can also know where he is and where he should go. Just looking at the direction of the two of them, he could tell that they were about to go to the side door on the south side.

His mansion is connected to the Yongxin Palace, where Empress Dowager He and the Holy Lord lived. There are guards outside the house, patrolling and guarding day and night, leaving the house at this hour, of course, will be discovered, Lu Bu immediately judged that the person who came should return to the front house, and then find an opportunity to go out after dawn.

In the blink of an eye, Lu Bu had already calculated and bowed back. Then he made a detour, quickly copied to the place where the two of them must go, and just after hiding his figure, he saw two figures floating here silently.

He didn't carry a long knife with him, but. Even with his bare hands, he was full of confidence. If you can't even deal with two weak women. He might as well find a seclusion as soon as possible and forget about it.

In an instant, two figures passed by without noticing, and a faint fragrance rushed into Lu Bu's nose, and just as the latter had just passed in front of Lu Bu, he suddenly jumped up. Holding his breath, he threw himself at her.

Her reaction was not unpleasant, and just when Lu Bu was still three or four steps away, she saw her turn around quickly, and at the same time her right hand reached into her arms. Apparently he was armed with a blade such as a short sword.

At this time, the person who walked in front still did not react and continued to move forward.

When he was still two steps away from the person, he stretched out his left hand, and with the momentum of rushing forward, he clasped her right elbow and prevented her from taking out the short knife.

With such a sound, the person in front of him finally reacted, stopped, and turned around, and at the same time, the person who was attacked blocked with his left hand, leaned back, and tried to dodge Lu Bu's punch.

It's a pity that Lu Bu's left hand clasped her right elbow, and suddenly pulled her into his arms, constantly eliminating her backward force, and even pulling her to the point where she staggered, before she could react, Lu Bu's right hand had swept to, her forearm swept over her erected left arm, and the fist hit her left cheek.

Bang!

With a muffled sound, Lu Bu unintentionally discovered that she was so vulnerable that she fainted directly to the ground.

The person in front of her just turned around, stunned, forgot to scream for a while, and just when she was about to start speaking, she was slapped by Lu Bu, slashed her neck, and fainted.

Lu Bu breathed a sigh of relief, carried the two of them and returned to the place where he lived alone.

This is a place for himself to stay, the reason is very strong, when he is busy, he can sleep here without disturbing any of Yan, Diao Chan, Cai Yan and Xiao Tao, but in fact, this is only one of the reasons, and the other reason is to facilitate him to go to the tryst with the Empress Dowager He.

Therefore, there was no personal maid here, and he had to do everything himself, and then he tore off two large strips of cloth, wrapped them in a ball, stuffed them into the mouths of the two women, and tied them up.

This is to prevent the two of them from shouting poison in their mouths, and when they see that something is wrong, they will swallow poison and commit suicide, or bite their tongues to kill themselves.

After doing this, the anger in Lu Bu's heart had all turned into calmness, no matter what the two of them came from, it was obvious that someone was not ready to let him have a good time.

A basin full of cold water was splashed up, and the two of them hummed at the same time, woke up, and when they realized that their hands were tied behind their backs, their mouths were stuffed full, and there were people in front of them, they all opened their eyes in horror, and their bodies writhed, struggling, trying to break free.

"Don't waste your efforts, let's save some effort and get ready to have some fun."

After speaking, Lu Bu turned to the person on the side of Xiangyou, showed his signature gentle smile, and nodded: "Very good, you recognize me, not bad, not bad." ”

The more Lu Bu said so lightly, the more frightened the person on the right became, whining and writhing.

Everything is under control, Lu Bu yawned a lot, and said indifferently: "Well, I'm so sleepy, you just stay like this for a while, Lao Tzu will sleep first, and then get up and have fun with you!" ”

After saying that, he really blew out the lamp and candle, lay down on the bed with a big grin, and fell asleep, and after a while, he really fell asleep, snoring loudly.

The two assassins were tied tightly by him, let alone break free, and even if they wanted to change their positions slightly, they couldn't get it.

This night, Lu Bu slept very soundly, and it was not until three o'clock that he woke up as usual. When I opened my eyes, I saw that the two assassins were still tied there, unable to move.

Lu Bu did not go into battle in person to interrogate the two, but washed up slowly and methodically, and called Song Xian.

"Lord, this is ......"

Song Xian was very puzzled when he saw the two people who were tied up in the house by Lu Bu and asked.

Lu Bu briefly recounted what he heard, and Song Xian's face immediately changed drastically. immediately gritted his teeth and looked over, and that look seemed to be eager to eat the two alive.

"Interrogate them here, don't alarm anyone, if they confess honestly, then there is no need to torture, and you can also consider giving them a chance to reform and do things for me."

Lu Bu didn't look at the two of them, and directly ordered Song Xian to say this. In fact, it is precisely for the two of them to hear.

"If not," Lu Bu snorted coldly, his face turned cold, and his voice was even colder as if it could freeze, "then let them understand." What is life is better than death! ”

"No," Song Xian also gritted his teeth and agreed. "My subordinates understand!"

Finished. Lu Bu has been tempering himself every day since he left, which is also an important means for him to maintain his energy.

Just one hour later, before he finished his work, he caught a glimpse of Song Xian waiting on the side of the martial arts training ground.

"How's it going?"

Lu Bu collected his work, handed Fang Tian's halberd to the guard, and took the hot cloth towel handed over by the maid. Waving their hands to let them stand back, he asked Song Xian.

Song Xian replied in a low voice: "My lord, the interrogation has been made clear, and both of them are outposts. He is not a true assassin, and the secret he finds out will be passed on to another person. They know very little about the specific Jihua and the mastermind behind it. However, both of them are willing to work for the lord! ”

"Humph!" Lu Bu snorted disapprovingly, and asked as he walked, "Are there other accomplices in the mansion?" ”

"The two said no."

This answer, in Lu Bu's expectation, most of these maids and servants in the mansion, as well as domestic servants, etc., were brought from Taiyuan, and they have been in the mansion for many years.

Lu Bu pondered for a moment, and said to Song Xian: "Don't be careless about this matter, you go and discuss with Mr. Yuanzhi, and make great efforts to investigate and investigate secretly in Chang'an, not only to find out the hidden assassins, but also to find out the hidden assassins, and the inner room arranged to come in, must be carefully investigated." It's still the same principle, and if I want to use it, not only will I have no worries about my life, but I will also have a great reward. ”

This matter is equivalent to another hidden front in the struggle for world domination, Lu Bu did this, in addition to being wary of the newly emerging killer assassin Shili because of last night's incident, but also to find out the inner room of Shili of all parties, and at the same time, to plot against some of the inner rooms for his use.

As early as when he entered Taiyuan, he had already taken this problem into account, and ordered Jia Xu to personally handle the establishment of the espionage system.

Another thing is how to strengthen the protection of Yongxin Palace and the palace, Lu Bu has other considerations about this, and it can be combined with the previous thing to adopt a strategy of loosening the outside and tightening the inside.

The whole thing is not known to outsiders at all, only Lu Bu, Song Xian, Xu Shu and others are fully aware of it, and they plan to promote everything.

Just when Lu Bu threw himself into this hidden front of the anti-war, the action of the state army to conquer Jincheng Han Sui had also been officially launched.

When Xu Huang led the army into Ji County, the pioneer general Li Su had already led the pioneer battalion of 3,000 to rush to the Qiangdao first, Ma Chao could only rush back to Jixian County in the short time when the heavy snow closed the road, and make a short stay, and the rest of the time, he had to personally sit in the Basket Road to stabilize the confrontation with Han Sui Jincheng Army.

After the beginning of spring, as Han Sui continued to mobilize troops and horses from Jincheng and Longxi, and gathered on the front line of Xiangwu, Ma Jiajun was already at an absolute disadvantage in terms of strength, and it was precisely because of the increase in pressure that Ma Chao also took the initiative to ask Lu Bu for reinforcements under the persuasion of Pang Rou about whether he could resist Han Sui's next round of offensive.

Outside the city of Zhengdao, Ma Chao was stationed in the middle of the avenue, looking at the black oppressive clouds that were slowly sweeping in the distance, his face was quite ugly, and he was accompanied by Pang De, Ma Dai, and Lu Bu's vanguard general Li Su.

The military prestige of the state army can be glimpsed from the vanguard battalion led by the pioneer general Li Su alone, and now Pang De looked at the arrival of the main army led by Xu Huang, was silent for a moment, and said with emotion: "Young master, under the command of the general of the chariot cavalry, the soldiers are strong and the horses are strong."
