Luoyang City is ten miles away.

It was dark and night fell.

The sky is dotted with stars, bringing faint starlight.

When Li Hao arrived in Luoyang with the elite cavalry, it was such a lonely scene at night. The official road was empty, accompanied only by the sound of insects.

Lu Bu sat in the pavilion next to the official road, saw Li Hao riding a horse from a distance, and happily hurried up to meet him. He came to Li Hao, looked at it with his head held high, and sighed with a little complicated emotion: "Zhijie is becoming more and more imposing. ”

Li Hao hurriedly dismounted, looking at Lu Bu with a complicated expression, and his mood was equally complicated.

He was silent for a few seconds before he sighed: "The eldest brother is still the eldest brother." ”

Lu Bu was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help laughing.

He patted Li Hao on the shoulder, and said, "What are the plans of Zhijie, if you need help from the eldest brother, just ask?" ”

Li Hao was moved in his heart, but he didn't know the meaning of Lu Bu's words.

The two chatted as they walked, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he said with a smile: "I left in a hurry this time, and I didn't clean up the house, so these little troubles will occur." Now that I think about it, my home really needs to be cleaned up. Although it won't cause any trouble, it's still a disturbing thing. ”

Lu Bu laughed approvingly: "What Zhijie said is very true, some things are really too annoying, it's time to clean up." ”

Li Hao bowed his head slightly, and muttered: "Although this matter is a bit unexpected, it is not a good thing. These things are like diseases, and if they are in the gut, they are even more difficult to deal with. Now the disease is only in the texture, and it is easier to deal with. ”

And this incident also reminded me that our foundation is still shallow, and there is not enough foundation in the court to support it. If there is no one in the court, it is inevitable that there will be such small troubles in the future. ”

When Lu Bu heard this, he frowned and said, "What do you mean? ”

Li Hao smiled and said: "I'll talk about this matter in the future, if you want to talk about the trouble of the eldest brother, there is really such a thing." ”

Lu Bujian raised his eyebrows slightly, and said, "Zhijie has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

Li Hao groaned and said slowly: "Tongguan is the most important pass leading to the pass, I want the eldest brother to personally lead the troops to take a trip." ”

Lu Bu's eyebrows furrowed into Sichuan characters, glanced at the Xiliang army behind Li Hao, and whispered uneasily: "Tongguan is indeed the top priority, but the capital should not be underestimated. If I go at this time, I will ..... then."

Lu Bu didn't finish speaking, but the gaze of Li Dao and the others in the distance already explained everything.

After all, he doesn't trust Xiliang Jun!

Li Hao understood Lu Bu's worries, smiled and comforted: "Big brother still can't trust my ability? ”

Lu Bu was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that his younger brother was no longer the weak young man he was at the beginning. He smiled self-deprecatingly, as if he was emotional, as if he was feeling, and sighed: "If it was a year ago, the eldest brother really didn't dare to imagine that there would be today's weather. ”

"Big brother and rest assured, the future will only be better." Li Hao comforted.

Before crossing over, Li Hao dared to imagine that he would have today's situation, in charge of hundreds of thousands of troops, holding the power of life and death in the court. So he was completely able to understand Lu Bu's feelings, and even felt them more deeply.

Li Hao's eyes were confused, he was silent for two seconds, and said with a smile: "Big brother has placed a good sister-in-law." ”

Lu Bu thought of his wife and daughter, his face was a little more gentle, and he smiled: "They are all right, I plan to wait for the matter here to settle down, and then take them to Luoyang." ”

When Lu Bu said this, his eyes squinted slightly at Li Hao, as if he was looking at something rare, and teased: "When your sister-in-law was at home, she found a lot of ladies for you. Then you see, if there is a suitable family, it is time to get married. ”

Lu Bu said, and suddenly laughed: "But with my brother's current ability, I'm afraid I can't look down on those women from small families." ”

Li Hao couldn't cry or laugh in his heart, he didn't know how long he could stay in the Three Kingdoms era, and said perfunctorily: "Let's talk about this matter later." ”

Lu Bu shook his head amusedly, and did not persuade again.

After all, there are still big things to be done, and it's not about discussing them.

However, he made up his mind in his heart that after the situation in the court stabilized, he would definitely find a suitable wife for Li Hao.

The two talked for most of the night, and Lu Bu didn't leave until it was dark.

And Lu Bu did not delay when he returned to the camp, and left the camp west for Tongguan that morning.

Luoyang.

Wang Yun was stunned and said, "What, Lu Feng first took the Bingzhou army to the west?" ”

Zhang Wen's face was both excited and a little puzzled, and he said urgently: "There will definitely be no false in this matter, my people watched their army leave with their own eyes, and they followed for dozens of miles before coming back." ”

Wang Yun frowned, feeling a little strange.

Lu Bu left at this time, which was really beyond his expectations.

He pondered for a moment, unable to understand the reason why Lu Bu left. Because no matter how you look at it, with Lu Bu and tens of thousands of Bingzhou troops here, it can undoubtedly increase Li Hao's momentum a lot.

Wang Yun pondered and said, "Since Lu Fengxian is leaving, I will ignore him for the time being. At the moment, only Lu Hao is here, which is much more convenient for us. You go and prepare, it's time to welcome Lu Tingwei, a great hero, into the capital. ”

Wang Yun said the back, showing a playful smile.

No matter why Lu Bu left, it was undoubtedly a lot less pressure on him, and it was more convenient for him to act in the future.

Zhang Wen nodded, now that the two of them are grasshoppers on a rope, he has to choose to cooperate with Wang Yun even for his own future.

He groaned and asked, "Have the spies sent to the Tiger Prison Pass to investigate the situation come back?" ”

Wang Yun shook his head slightly: "I haven't returned yet, and it is estimated that I won't be able to return until the evening." However, the situation in the Tiger Prison does not affect our actions, and there is no need to rush this matter. ”

Zhang Wen nodded and did not continue to say more.

No matter what the situation of the Tiger Prison Pass is, the situation that they and Li Hao are incompatible will not change. Dealing with Li Hao is the most important thing at the moment, and the matter of Tiger Prison can be put aside for the time being.

And they didn't know that the matter of the Tiger Prison was far beyond their imagination, and might even change their plans.

※※※

Lu Bu left in the dark, and the court was close to the third pole of the sun, and only discussed the relevant matters to welcome Li Hao into Beijing. After a long discussion, they finally decided that Situ Wang Yun would lead hundreds of civil and military officials out of the city to greet them.

This treatment, no matter what age it is, is quite a high standard.

Because of the time constraints, the relevant etiquette has been simplified. The imperial court used a lot of manpower to clean up the streets urgently, and then hundreds of civil and military officials came to the city gate in court clothes.

At noon, the sun was blazing.

The scorching sun of early autumn is still dazzling, and the scorching breath bakes the earth. The civil and military officials were dressed in court clothes, and most of them were sweaty because of the heavy clothes.

It's just that although it is very hard to wait for people in the sun, no one dares to complain at this time.

The civil and military officials had different expressions and mixed moods.

No one expected that Li Hao, who had been judged to lose power yesterday, would miraculously reverse the situation.

They still haven't figured out why things are so coincidental that Li Hao actually defeated the Kwantung rebels at such a critical moment. What made them even more incomprehensible was how Li Hao reversed the situation and defeated hundreds of thousands of troops in the Kwantung region under impossible circumstances.

At this time, Li Hao returned with his troops, and even the courtiers who were slow to smell understood that the court would inevitably have a resurgence of turmoil.

Many courtiers thought about it in their hearts, glanced at Wang Situ carefully, and said secretly in their hearts: "I just don't know who is better between Lu Tingwei and Wang Situ." ”

Just when everyone was thinking differently, thousands of imposing cavalry appeared on the official road in the east.

The speed of the cavalry was very fast, and in a few moments it was already in front of the city gates.

The civil and military officials did not dare to slack off, and bowed down one after another and said: "Welcome Lu Tingwei back to the court." ”

Li Hao rode on a horse, indifferently squinted at the civil and military officials, and finally set his eyes on Wang Yun. His gaze was flat, not murderous, not angry, as if he were looking at a stranger.

It's just such a bland gaze, but at this time, Wang Yun's heart is beating wildly, and he is quite nervous.

Li Hao said suddenly: "Drag it down, cut it!." ”

Quiet!

There was a dead silence in front of the city gate for an instant, and the civil and military officials raised their heads and looked at Li Hao in shock and stunned.

This, what does it mean!
