Chapter 3 Breaking the treacherous scheme to please the mother-in-law

Then Liu Guanzhang and the three led the army back, and the siege of Xiapi was temporarily lifted.

Lu Bu came back to his senses at this time, he looked at Xu Hong with relief and said, "Go back and rest." ”

Then Lu Bu walked to the barracks, and Xu Hong pouted and smiled helplessly.

"This is the general character of a father-in-law, who never says thank you to his son-in-law. ”

Xu Hong shook his head, now is not the time to think about this.

"Cao Cao's plan of internal and external cooperation cannot be allowed to be carried out in this plan, otherwise, once he succeeds in Picheng, he will lose, and if the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty have no territory, they can only be slaughtered. ”

Uncle Liu Huang is an example, wandering for half a life has a size at the end, and he has been living an unstable life, so Xiapicheng must be saved, not only for his daughter-in-law, but also for the future!

"To untie the bell, you still have to tie the bell, or you have to start with Hou Cheng first. ”

With his memory, he came to the Terracotta Division.

I remember that Hou Cheng held this position, did not sleep with his daughter-in-law, ran to the stable to sleep, and loved the horse and got the name "Ma Fujun", which shows how much he likes good horses. ”

Xu Hong came to the stable after entering, and sure enough, he saw Hou Cheng, who was comforting a horse and feeding him forage carefully.

He touched his beard and thought: "Hou Cheng loves nothing but a good horse, it is better to ask his father-in-law first to reward him with a good horse, so as to satisfy his hobby first, and when Cao Gong sends someone to persuade him, he will not be moved." ”

He felt that this plan was feasible, and hurriedly ran to the camp to find his father-in-law.

Lu Bu was in the big tent at the moment, and he was checking the battle books of the soldiers and horses of each battalion, and when he saw Xu Hong coming, he pointed at him and said to the generals around him with a smile.

"This is my family's Chirikoma. ”

Gao Shun, Zhang Liao and the other generals heard about Xu Hong's rescue of his father-in-law this morning, and now they all watched Xu Hong come in with a look of admiration.

"Father-in-law, I was ambushed by Liu Xuande this morning, the root cause is that there are no good horses, I just came from the Soldiers and Horses Division, and found that General Hou took good care of the horses, and the horses raised are all of the highest quality, so it is better to hand over all the good horses to General Hou Cheng to take care of them. ”

Xu Hong thought about these words for a long time, it can be said that he patted his father-in-law's sycophants, he often read the history books of the Three Kingdoms to his father-in-law's character, it can be said that he has a clear feeling, and he is so happy that he is good at listening to beautiful words.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Lu Bu nodded with great joy and agreed, and Lu Bu looked at Zhang He and the other generals and found that they were also happy.

"Yes, I will send you for this. ”

Xu Hong left the big tent after accepting it, he thought to himself: "It's done, sure enough, the famous generals love good horses, just now I saw that all the generals in the camp are happy, and they will not object, who doesn't like their mounts to give them a little more power, and fight on the battlefield more quickly?"

He came to the Terracotta Division, summoned Hou Cheng, and informed him of the matter.

"Oh, hey, really, thank you, Bridegroom. Hou Cheng was overjoyed when he learned about this, and after understanding that Xu Hong had contrived, he directly kowtowed to Xu Hong.

"Oh, General Hou can't help it, please hurry up, so these good horses will please you. ”

Xu Hong leaned into his ear again and said, "I have ordered someone to prepare enough high-quality feed, and I will deliver it over in a while, don't be too ostentatious." ”

"Oh, thank you so much, I understand, I understand. "Hou Chengdu is dying of joy.

Xu Hong brushed his sleeves away, and Hou Cheng looked at the more than a dozen good horses in the stable, and he was simply happy.

At this time, Xu Hong did not leave, but hid in the dark, the sky gradually darkened, and it didn't take long for a servant to hurriedly walk to Hou Cheng's side.

"Well, what's the matter with you?" Hou Cheng looked at him suspiciously.

"General, we are fellow villagers, I am entrusted by Cao Gong today to persuade you to abandon the dark and turn to the light, I know that you love horses, this time I have prepared more than a dozen Dawan horses, all of which are given to you. The servant said flatteringly.

"It is expected that this Hou Chengcheng is our person, hey, after completing the entrustment of Cao Gong, I can be added to the rank of knight, and I will have no worries about food and clothing from now on hahaha. The servant bowed his head and rejoiced in his heart.

"Hmph, it turned out to be a fine work! I am deeply favored by the lord, how can I be such a traitor who betrays the master, the villain dares to harm me, look at the knife!" Hou Cheng directly slashed the servant to death.

When the servant died, he could not believe that it was true.

"Hou Cheng was unmoved by the good horse, this... No way. "The servants did not die blindly.

Xu Hong, who was quietly watching all this not far away, touched his beard and smiled.

"It's not that he doesn't like horses, but once people have satisfied their preferences, they will go higher, it's just human nature, you don't understand that these deaths are innocent. ”

Xu Hong saw that the worries in his heart were solved, and he suddenly felt a lot more relaxed, he returned to the Lu family's house, and at this time he met his mother-in-law, Yan.

"I've seen my mother. ”

He could see that Yan was busy and anxious, and Xu Hong saluted.

Yan Shi did not bother to face as before, but used a motherly tone: "Today's guests are all coming to visit, don't talk nonsense when you wait, just don't talk when you bow your head to eat." ”

The implication is that you just keep your head down and don't speak, because if you speak, you will be embarrassed and make others laugh. ”

"Uncle, in the end, you still look down on me. ”

Then the Yan family went to greet the servants again, and Xu Hong was not lightly angry.

"I bought a watch last year! Am I really an honest person? Is it so easy to bully?"

[Randomly selected, the skill is high and eight buckets, with Cao Zhi's literary talent, two hours]

Xu Hong instantly felt that there was a lot of ink in his mind, and a smile appeared on his face at this moment and he walked into the banquet hall.

Everything was arranged and the guests were seated.

The celebrities of Xiapi City elected a representative, and said in a wine shop with a wine in his hand: "The general bravely retreated from the enemy's army, and I will come to celebrate and congratulate the general, and give the general a glass." ”

"A glass to the general. ”

"Good lords, the cloth has dried this cup. ”

In fact, they came at this time, firstly, to pat Lu Bu's ass, and secondly, to make friends with Lu Bu, so as to seek convenience for the family in Xiapi City in the future.

Xu Hong saw Lu Bu and Yan sitting together, but there was no trace of Lu Lingqi.

"It's normal to think about it, during the Three Kingdoms period, men had a higher status, and even the mother-in-law was just here to greet guests, and she had to leave immediately after the meeting began. ”

Seeing the appearance of his mother-in-law Yan, Xu Hong had a bad idea.

"Hey, hey, my mother-in-law asked you to see if your son-in-law was really an honest man who couldn't speak. ”

After the dancers finished their performances, they all retreated, Lu Buan sat on the couch, smiled and raised his glass: "Today, I was visited by my father and fellow villagers, and I am deeply grateful to Fengxian, and this cup is for you." ”

"General Lu, please. The guests finished their glasses.

Xu Hong took a sip of wine, it was all watery, but it didn't matter, he picked up the wine glass and came to the middle of the banquet hall.

He smiled and saluted Lu Bushi: "Lord Yue, today's friends are full, and the son-in-law is full of poetry, and he wants to compose a poem on the spot, I don't know if it's okay?"

Lu Bu was already happy, and when he thought that his son-in-law had saved him, he looked at him a lot more pleasing to the eye.

"After Hong'er is a celebrity, Wencai should be fine. So he allowed him.

Instead, Yan Shi glanced at Lu Bu and Xu Hong, and the meaning was obvious.

"What if he says the wrong thing? Isn't it a shame?"

But to no avail, her husband Lu Bu decided to do a good thing, she couldn't say anything as a woman, she came to the door at this moment, and quietly observed the scene in the house.

"I'd better leave first, in case I make a fool of myself, I don't want to stay at the scene, I don't know what I'm doing, and I dare to learn from others to compose poems here. ”

Xu Hong pretended to be drunk, drank another glass of wine, threw the glass aside, and paced back and forth a few steps and raised his throat.

"Huh, today I see the white horse feeling, and there is a white gate tower in this city, just returned from the immortals, listen to an immortal surnamed Cao as "White Horse Chapter", especially here to say and listen to the public. ”

Xiapi celebrities, look at me, I look at you, they muttered in their hearts: "I haven't heard of this person's name, but this person is the son-in-law of General Lu, let's listen to it." ”

The representative of the celebrity said: "Xu Gongzi, please." ”

Xu Hong nodded: "Long drive the Huns, left Gu Ling Xianbei." Abandon the edge of the blade, and the life can be cherished? Parents do not care, how can the son and his wife be compiled! Sacrifice your life to go to the country, and see death as if you were going home. ”

"Oh, Brother Cao, I'm sorry to have the courage to borrow your poems, anyway, it's for you to make a name for yourself, please bear with me. Xu Hong said in his heart.

As soon as this poem came out, all the celebrities were immersed in it, and until Xu Hong finished reading it, they were still unfinished, immersed in the world depicted in the poem.

"This is a masterpiece through the ages, Xu Xian's son-in-law is outstanding, and he is really a celestial man!"

The guests stood up and applauded, although Lu Bu didn't understand well.

"Everyone is full of praise, they must be satisfied with my virtuous son-in-law, hahaha!"

Lu Bu also clapped his hands and praised, and Xu Hong hurriedly saluted to show his humility.

The applause gradually dissipated, and in an instant Xu Hong was surrounded by guests who came to ask for advice.

"Please also ask Xu Mingshi for some advice. ”

Lu Bu saw that his son-in-law was so popular, and he was overjoyed to look at his son-in-law happily while drinking.

The most shocked person outside the door was Yan, she couldn't believe what had just happened.

"This... Is this still the same wretched Xu Hong? How can he change a person after drinking, could it be that there are really gods to help him?"

But when she thought about it, she was very happy, and her son-in-law casually recited poetry, and the audience applauded.

"It's really earned enough face for the Lu family, if the son-in-law is serious about literature, wouldn't the Lu family really have a literary star?"

As soon as he thought of this, Yan ignored the rules, and hurriedly ran to the back kitchen, pinched his waist and commanded his subordinates: "Hurry up and cook a few more good dishes for my son-in-law, and hurry up and serve them to my uncle." ”

The people around muttered: "Where is your son-in-law today, it is clearly your own son." ”

"Say what?"

"No... Immediately arrange a good table for my uncle. ”

Yan was relieved at this time, and she began to look forward to the future of Xu Hong's family living a good life after becoming a civil official, and she was fascinated.

Seeing the mother-in-law with a smile on her face, Xu Hong also smiled.
