Lu Bu admitted to his face that he was not as good as Chen Cheng. After saying that, he felt a strange pleasure in his heart.
Chen Cheng stared at Lu Bu for a long time, as if he was making a difficult decision. Lu Bu was puzzled by his look, and felt a little uncomfortable all over his body, especially the back of his neck, which always felt like a chill.
After a long time, Chen Cheng said: "Lu Bu, actually I was planning to kill you before."
Lu Bu blurted out: "I knew it was like this!"
"But later you persuaded Gao Shun to surrender and allowed me to successfully obtain Chang'an. This was considered a great achievement after surrendering. It is for this reason that I did not kill you."
"............"
Chen Cheng continued: "Later, I imprisoned you in Chang'an, but secretly gave Wang Yue an order to kill you immediately if you showed any sign of escaping."
When Lu Bu thought about the things he had discussed with Han Sui, cold sweat broke out on his back.
"But it's a pity that you have tried many times on the road of seeking death, but you have never taken the last step." When Chen Cheng said this, he smacked his mouth and looked very regretful, "I am a person who
It's the most reasonable thing. Although there are a hundred reasons to kill you, the things you committed were all before surrendering. Later, Gao Shun wrote several times to protect you, so I will give you three more chances."
Lu Bu muttered something, but because it was too vague and low, Chen Cheng didn't hear it clearly, but he didn't care, but said with a serious expression: "For Gao Shun's sake, I will give you three chances to challenge. What?
Whenever you feel that your martial arts skills are better than those of others, you can come to me and fight alone. If you can kill me, that is your ability. But before you defeat me, if I hear that you have acted out of character again, even if
I can spare you, but military law will not spare you either!"
After listening for a while, Lu Bu suddenly came to his heart and asked: "Do you want me to help you fight?"
Chen Cheng said calmly: "The world is in turmoil now. Since you have such martial arts, wouldn't it be a pity to die like this?"
Lu Bu's eyes widened and his voice became louder, "After all, you still want me to help you fight the war!"
"Why, you don't want to?" Chen Cheng supported his head with his right fist, "That's fine..."
"Yes, I am willing!" Lu Bu immediately replied: "Only a fool would not want to!"
"Very good, then you will stay with me first, and after the autumn harvest, we will go out to fight together!"
When Chen Cheng was speaking, he noticed the subtitles that lit up quietly in the lower left corner of his field of vision, "Lu Bu has joined your team."
This made him a little surprised, and he had some other ideas. Now there are four people with exclusive names in his team, Zhao Yun, Liu Qian, Fazheng, Lu Bu, Zhao Zilong and Princess Wannian are still kind-hearted
Fazheng can only say whether he is a bad guy or not, and now there is Lu Bu... Could it be that there are really heroes from various camps? Does that mean that he can be like "Pande"?
"The prophecy" is the same, there can be up to twenty heroes?
While Chen Cheng was thinking, Lu Bu was already a little excited. He longed to fight on the battlefield, longed for bloodshed and sacrifice, as long as he didn't bleed himself. He liked power, fancy clothes and fine wine, and beautiful beauties, but he
Only now did he realize that fighting in battle was also his inseparable hobby.
Lu Bu couldn't help but ask: "Who are we going to fight after the autumn harvest?"
Chen Cheng came back to his senses and said, "We'll know when the time comes."
The aftermath of Shisun Duan's plot to assassinate the general caused a lot of turmoil in Guanzhong, and various gossips were flying secretly. Many people were frightened. They only knew that the general was not happy, so he slaughtered many important officials of the court with his sword.
For this reason, "Chang'an Daily" had to publish a new "Feng Shen Yan Yi" to divert everyone's attention.
Regarding the earthquake in the imperial court, "Chang'an Daily" and "Yinchuan Daily" only briefly mentioned it, and then devoted large tracts of space to introducing business opportunities in the territories under the imperial court, or
Introducing the customs and customs of the Western Regions, or myths and legends, etc.
In a word, it is as if nothing happened, using all kinds of things that the people like to hear and see to divert their attention. In this kind of public opinion propaganda that whitewashes the peace, the people gradually feel at ease. Anyway, everyone is dead.
He was a big shot above, and many people would be happy if one of them died. If so many died, everyone would be extremely happy.
The common people and the powerful scholars are not in the same camp. We all have different interests. They are not as frustrated as the wealthy families. We should continue to do whatever we have to do. Now is the time for spring plowing, and everyone has no interest in going to court all the way across the way.
things to distract you.
In the Shangshu Province on the left side of Weiyang Palace, Yan Zhong put down today's "Chang'an Daily" and picked up the "Yinchuan Daily" three days ago and looked at it. There was no news about the murder of the court ministers. After reading "Journey to the West"
After reading the serials of "The Legend of the Gods" and "The Romance of the Gods", Yan Zhong thought about what Chen Cheng said that day, and still felt that something was not safe, so he decided to find someone to make a calculation.
The first person he looked for was Jia Xu, the minister in charge of Menxia Province. This is also the only person who can be his equal in official positions. Although Jia Xu's qualifications are not as good as Yan Zhong's, Menxia Province upholds the spirit of the general.
Will can often overwhelm other departments.
Even Yang Qiu, who has always been arrogant, or Xu Chao, who dared to contradict anyone, often just obeyed Jia Xu. Yan Zhong broke into Weiyang Palace without waiting for the soldiers to notify him.
The second lieutenant of Mingya Soldier was about to inform Jia Xu when he saw Shangshu Ling walking in in a swaggering manner, and he couldn't help but look shocked.
The Menxia Province is a place that holds countless secrets. Anyone who breaks in without permission will be shot without mercy. While the second lieutenant was slandering, he couldn't help but think: The lord is too arrogant towards Zhongshu Ling!
Just when the second lieutenant had a surprised look on his face, Jia Xu waved his hand and said, "You go down first."
"promise!"
Yan Zhong sat on the chair next to Jia Xu, looked at the documents, newspapers and other things on the table, and said with a smile: "Wen He has been very busy recently."
Jia Xu said humbly: "It's not too busy. Zhongshu Ling is here, but is there anything important?"
Yan Zhong said: "Wen He is one of the few smart people in Liangzhou. Don't you know why I came?"
Jia Xu smiled and said: "Even if I can guess it, I don't dare to guess it. I'd better ask Zhongshu Ling to make it clear."
Yan Zhong frowned and thought for a while, and said: "I have always been surprised before. Junhou has never been addicted to women, so how could he suddenly think of marrying Princess Wannian? Wenhe, do you know why?
"
Jia Xu said calmly: "Isn't it because the emperor issued an edict to grant marriage?"
Yan Zhong said: "This is another thing that is strange to me. The princes and princes never pay attention to the etiquette of the world, and they don't have much respect for the emperor. A few days ago, they suddenly said in public that they would teach the emperor to lead troops to fight and fight.
Do you think your ability to govern a country is strange?"
Jia Xu shook his head and said sternly: "I am just a minister, how dare you try to figure out the lord's thoughts? What the lord says and does naturally has his own considerations."
Yan Zhong said dissatisfied: "Why did Wen He deceive me? Haven't you ever thought about the truth behind this? We are all members of the general. If the emperor comes back to power, will you and I be less likely to end up confiscating our homes and annihilating our clans? Since Emperor Gaozu,
Since the oath of the White Horse, which general has been killed and many people have not been killed? That is to say, the prince was kind-hearted and only killed He Jin. A few days ago, he did not take the opportunity to clean the court, so there were still so many people every day.
Noisy noise."
Jia Xu was slightly moved. Why hadn't he considered what Yan Zhong said? Now that Chen Cheng has the power, they can hold high positions and have unlimited glory, but if the power is transferred back to the emperor's hands, then how can they have the power?
What can't end well?
Based on the behavior of the emperors surnamed Liu in the past dynasties, these people will certainly die, and their families will not be spared. They will not even have the opportunity to go to the Western Regions to grow cotton. Thinking of this, Jia Xu couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "Zhongshu Ling, these
Why bother telling the truth? Besides, I can’t influence the lord’s mind!”
"Otherwise, there are very few people whom the prince trusts. Apart from Zhao Zilong and Liu Bei, only Wen and you have the greatest influence on the prince. As long as you and I tell the prince how powerful he is, he will naturally stop being childish.
idea."
Yan Zhong sneered: "Returning power to the emperor? That is equivalent to handing the sword back and letting others kill us! We must all be consistent on this matter, and we must prevent the monarch from making the same mistake again and again!"
Jia Xu smiled and said: "Actually, you don't need to pay too much attention to Zhongshu Ling. Although my lord said that he would teach the emperor how to lead troops to fight and govern the country, he did not say that he would return power to the emperor. Now that my lord is in the prime of his life, he has married Wan Wan.
Princess Nian, when they have children, then..."
At this point, Jia Xu smiled and did not continue. Yan Zhongwen understood the elegance and a smile appeared on his face, "It turns out that when you came up with the idea for the king to marry the princess, you had already thought so far.
?Wenhe, ah Wenhe, I think you are the smartest person in our Liangzhou!"
"Don't dare. How dare you call me smart in front of Zhongshu Ling?"
Yan Zhong laughed and said: "Hey, now you admit that you are the one who advises the princess, right? Let me tell you, with the princess's temperament, how can she be so close to you!"
He laughed and said: "After listening to Wen He and your words, it was like drinking fine wine, and all the gloom in my heart disappeared. I gave Junhou so many beauties before, just because I wanted him to give birth to an heir as soon as possible. But it didn't happen
Unexpectedly, it would be better if the eldest son of the prince was born to a princess. Yes, yes, the offspring will be awesome!"
Yan Zhong is about ten years older than Jia Xu, but the two are now of the same rank. Now that he says "young people are to be feared" in front of his face, it seems a bit like relying on his old age. However, Jia Xu's face still has the same expression, without the slightest hint of resentment.
