When Lu Bu returned to the natural residence, the sky was already bright.

"Lord, this is left by Miss Wanwan." The shopkeeper of the natural house came to Lu Bu and handed a letter to Lu Bu.

"What about her?" Lu Bu took the letter and asked casually.

"I just came back and left." The shopkeeper bowed.

"Tsk~" looked at the letterhead in his hand, there were only a few words on the letter, but it was the news that Lu Bu was going to leave, and Lu Bu's mood became bored for no reason.

"Inform me and pay close attention to the recent movements in Chengdu, especially the Hu people." Lu Bu threw the letterhead into the brazier, and then instructed the shopkeeper.

Lian Rou's appearance made Lu Bu think a little more, Yun Shuai still didn't see it, but if he could use Yun Shuai to contain Bi Xuan, it would be of great help to him in the future.

"Obey orders," the shopkeeper bowed.

"Also, let that Henan madman come to see me" He exhaled a slightly suffocating breath, and Lu Bu continued.

Over the years, with the gradual growth of Lu Bu's power, coupled with Yan Shigu's reputation and Shen Luoyan, Xu Xingzhi and others continue to dig up walls for Lu Bu in other forces, Lu Bu's subordinates today are no longer as shabby as they were at the beginning.

Zheng Shiru, a madman in Henan, is the corner of the wall dug by Xu Xingzhi under Li Mi in the past two years, although this person is arrogant, but he also has real talent and learning, as for the arrogant character...... Hehe, in front of Lu Bu, in this world, there are really few people who are arrogant.

And now, Zheng Shiru is the strategist who was ordered to operate in Shuzhong, and he is also the mastermind of Lu Bu's coming to Shu to help Lu Bu take care of some things.

Dressed in a clean white robe, Zheng Shiru came behind Lu Bu, looking at the tall figure in front of him, Zheng Shiru's heart trembled slightly, he was not a cowardly person, nor was he a junior brother who had never seen the world, but every time he faced the man in front of him, he couldn't help but be frightened in his heart.

He, the Henan madman Zheng Shiru was actually scared, how long has it been?

The chill of the man in front of him was pressed on him, he knew that the awe-inspiring murderous aura was cultivated without knowing how to cultivate it, but he knew that if he wanted to, he would not be able to survive tomorrow, he smiled slightly, his elegant face returned to calm, and said: "Zheng Shiru has seen the lord"

In front of Lu Bu, the name of Henan madman, a little taboo, he didn't dare to take it out, if you say that in this world, who can make this Henan madman not even dare to report his name, I'm afraid, there is only Lu Bu alone.

At the beginning, he worked under Li Mi, although he was called a subordinate, but Li Mi treated him as if he were a guest, and now, when he came to Lu Bu, Lu Bu also attached great importance to him, and was able to hand over the management rights of Bashu to him, which has already shown how much Lu Bu attaches importance to him, but when facing Lu Bu, his madness and his arrogance are not at all crazy, nor can he be proud.

Zheng Shiru didn't think about switching to another family, because he was now a high-level under Lu Bu's account, and once he betrayed, he would face Lu Bu's pursuit of thousands of miles.

Zheng Shiru, wearing a moon-white Confucian robe, about twenty-seven or eighteen years old, with sword eyebrows and sideburns, and a square mountain scarf wrapped around his head, has a unique elegant bookish smell of a scholar, and a unique wildness on his body is deeply restrained at the moment, but it is replaced by a kind of calm.

In this world, if Lu Bu really wants to kill someone, it is the end of the world, and it is difficult to escape his life, especially in the battle last night, Ning Daoqi has no choice but to kill Lu Bu, I believe that soon, Lu Bu's reputation will be pushed to a peak.

"This time, please come here, there is one thing, I want to ask Mr. to solve the doubts" For a long time, when Zheng Shiru was about to be unable to bear the invisible pressure, Lu Bu finally spoke slowly.

"My lord, please speak" Zheng Shiru bowed and said, although Lu Bu's attitude made him very satisfied, but in the face of Lu Bu, he didn't dare to have a trace of madness.

"This time I came to Shuzhong, my original intention was to bring the land of Bashu under its banner, but now it seems that although Bashu has many forces, it is extremely consistent with the outside world, Li Valve, Li Mi and even the Turks and us, the time of operation here is not short, but few people can make achievements, how do you think Bashu ends?" Lu Bu looked at Zheng Shiru with blazing eyes, which made this madman with the name of a wise man in Henan feel a pang in his heart.

Zheng Shiru is a well-known resourceful person and a proud person, and when he heard this, his face was a little proud, and he said: "The strength of Bashu is complicated, but the three largest forces are restricted separately, and the reason why Bashu enjoys peace is not because of the sharp soldiers, but because of the dangerous terrain, and the leaders of the three major forces have extraordinary martial arts, but these conditions are not unbreakable." ”

He paused, and said: "Although it is a pull from all sides, but Bashu is an adventure no matter which force it goes to, now Luoyang is in full swing, the war in Jiangnan is rising again, and the Li valve in Guanzhong is eyeing Luoyang at the same time, and is exterminating other forces in the north, at this time, Bashu is most likely to continue to be neutral and neutrality is also a good result."

Zheng Shiru talked about everything, which also gave Lu Bu a full understanding of Zheng Shiru's ability, with Zheng Shiru's inference and combing, plus Lu Bu's not stupid mind, he quickly figured out the context.

Lu Bu nodded, suddenly looked up at Zheng Shiru, and said with burning eyes: "If you were a person from Cihang Jingzhai, how would you deal with the current situation?" ”

Zheng Shiru smiled slightly and spit out two words: "Song family"

Seeing Lu Bu's eyes, but seeing him smile faintly, he was confident, and said: "Heavenly Dao Song Que enjoys high prestige in Bashu, whether it is Li Valve, Cihang Jingzhai, or Western Turkic Yunshuai, they can't look at it, so, in order to keep Bashu from throwing himself into the Lingnan Song family, Cihang Jingzhai will inevitably move."

Lu Bu laughed and said: "It is worthy of the reputation of Henan Wise Man"

As soon as the words fell, he heard a sound of footsteps, and the shopkeeper came to the door, and a respectful voice came from outside the door: "Lord, Master Song asks to see Song Gongzi." ”

"Tell him to wait, I'll be right there." Lu Bu nodded, then looked at Zheng Shiru and said, "Go on." ”

Zheng Shiru took a breath, cleared his head, and continued: "In order to prevent Bashu from throwing himself into the Song family, Cihang Jingzhai must at least maintain the status quo, and there must be some moves, and the most likely thing is that Ning Daoqi will fight with the Heavenly Sword to decide the future of Bashu."

Since Cihang Jingzhai has made up his mind to support Li Valve, the only way to prevent Bashu from investing in the Song family is to prevent the power of the south from being too great.

"And for us, we just need to let Bashu maintain the status quo," Zheng Shiru said confidently.

……

"Shidao, if you come to me so early, you won't come to have breakfast with me." I talked with Zheng Shiru for half an hour, and when Lu Bu came out, Song Shidao had been waiting in nature for a long time.

A platform by the window, a pot of wine, and a long sword on the platform, Song Shidao's expression was extremely chic, accompanied by a handsome face, many girls in the inn looked at him secretly, and boldly sent him a secret autumn wave.

Song Shidao looked at Lu Bu and said with a slight smile: "Brother Lu had two battles last night, showing his might, and his reputation for Bashu martial arts is really gratifying." ”

Lu Bu shook his head, not wanting to say more about this, and said to Song Shidao: "What is the matter with Shidao looking for me?" ”

Song Shidao groaned slightly: "There was a big battle last night, Brother Lu moved to Bashu, Uncle Xie wanted to invite Brother Lu to come over the mansion, and Shi Dao came here to invite Brother Lu to go together." ”

"Visiting the Exclusive Treasure?" Lu Bu frowned and said, he had a conversation with Zheng Shiru just now, and he had a plan in his heart, this is not the time to discuss cooperation with Duzun Fort, Song Shidao nodded, and said: "Although Duzun Fort has an in-law relationship with my Song family, but Duzun Fort's attitude is very ambiguous, and he did not show his attitude" Lu Bu muttered: "Is it because of Cihang Jingzhai? ”

Song Shidao nodded, "Exactly, that crescent moon is convincing Duzun Fort to support Li Valve"

Lu Bu frowned and said: "When Li Shimin was in Luoyang, he lost an arm, and he wanted to become the lord of the world, but it was difficult to ascend to the sky, I never understood why Cihang Jingzhai spared no effort to support Li Valve?" ”

Song Shidao shook his head and said: "I don't know the reason for this, but Cihang Jingzhai has always believed that the north dominates the world and is orthodox, I think there should be some reasons for this."

Lu Bu thought for a while, nodded and said, "Since Duzun Fort is invited, I also want to meet and see what kind of character Xie Hui is."

Song Shidao nodded, smiled slightly, and the two of them looked at each other to see the smile in each other's eyes, although they didn't point it out, but they both knew that this was a demonstration, so that people knew not to stand in the wrong position.

The two of them were not in a hurry, and slowly walked towards Duzun Fort, and after a while, they could already see Duzun Fort.

Duzun Fort is located on the south bank of Wansui Pond in the northern suburbs of Chengdu, sitting south and facing north, like a reduced imperial city. The whole fort is built of stone bricks, giving people an impregnable atmosphere.

The two of them passed through the suspension bridge, and the open gate of the fort was already waiting, it was a man in gorgeous brocade clothes, forty years old, respectful and polite, and the person who heard the name was reported, and after introducing himself as the housekeeper of the Duzun Fort, Fang Yimin, nodded to Song Shidao, and then said to Lu Bu and the two: "The two of you are here, it is really my honor to come to the Duzun Castle, please go this way."

The entrance is a stone wall, around the wall is a tall stone archway, on the book "faithfulness and propriety" four big characters.

Through a straight stone-paved path, lined with pines and cypresses, the houses are hidden among the trees, and the scenery is deep.

Fang Yimin led them to pass a stone bridge across the clear stream that flowed from the northwest, and saw the building groups in front of them located in the middle of Duzun Fort, with towering pavilions, fighting arches and flying shoulders, and painting carved beams. In particular, under the stone steps of the main hall, there is a majestic and vivid giant stone lion as high as one zhang, which gives the main hall a strong mystery and majesty.

"The lord of the castle is already waiting for you in the main hall."
