Lu Bu's Ambition

Chapter 218 The Shadow of the Lu Family
As night fell, the door of the study room was opened, and the dim candle flickered under the breeze, dragging out a long shadow.

A man in a black cloak walked into the study led by Lu Bu's personal soldiers, and the door behind him was closed with a creak.

A pair of thin palms slowly lifted the cloak, revealing a thin and elegant face, black and white hair, and haggard eyes, which made Lu Bu tremble in his heart.

"gentlemen!"

Just a title made Li Ru smile bitterly, "Thank you Fengxian for remembering Dong Gong."

The deep bow is for Lv Bu to extend a helping hand in times of crisis, and to thank him for not hitting the ground, and for the continuation of Dong Gong's blood.

Taking a deep breath, Lu Bu waved his hand slowly, and the two stood on the seats, facing each other and knelt down, with a bowl of clear soup and a jug of wine on the desk.

"Dong Bai died in Chang'an and was buried in the sea of ​​fire. Only Lu Bai will live well. In the future, he will be the eldest daughter of the Lu family."

Lu Bu, who was pouring the wine, said words that outsiders could not understand lightly, but there was a warm current in Li Ru's heart.

Seeing Lu Bu, who used to be a minister in the palace, pour wine for him in person, Li Ru smiled lightly, as if he had lost his life and death, "Dong Gong treated you well in Fengxian back then, when did you become self-reliant?"

The understatement of the words can be heart-wrenching, and Lu Bu fell into the memory for a moment, while Li Ru on the side looked at him faintly as if waiting for the other party to reply.

Lu Bu, whose eyes were blurred, gradually became clear, and finally laughed at himself bitterly, "The flying general of Bingzhou back then only wanted to seek refuge with a sage when troubled times came."

"Dong Zhuo at the beginning, to be honest, he was not optimistic. If there were no princes of the Eighteenth Route and Liu Bian, even if Dong Gong was defeated and retreated to Chang'an, after a hundred years, there would be someone in the army who would be my opponent."

"Dong Gong is so old. After a hundred years, I will be at my peak. Instead, I will control the court and dominate the party, or seek refuge with the powerful princes. No one in the world will dare to underestimate it."

When he said this, the corner of Lu Bu's mouth was bitter, "Can you imagine what kind of suffering it will be when you have a big enemy and choose between life and death?"

Li Ru understood half of what he said, but he couldn't understand the second half. "The enemy? Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, or Liu Bian from Jiangdong or Liu Biao from Jingzhou?"

"You don't understand, it's from the same source, but even if you have the wisdom of heaven and man, you won't understand Liu Bian's background."

Listening to Lu Bu's words, Li Ru shook his head with a miserable smile, "I don't understand! Indeed, I thought I understood Dong Gong's ambitions back then. When I stepped into the court and dominated Luoyang, and the world was under control, I discovered Dong Gong's ambitions. It is gradually dying out and losing its aggressiveness.”

"I also don't understand your Lu Fengxian's heart, but I can see that Fengxian's heart is disturbed."

Taking a sip of the cold wine, Li Ru looked at Lu Bu puzzled and asked in a deep voice: "What makes you so anxious, the situation is good, we just need to wait for Youzhou to decide the winner, after three to five years of steady fighting With Jizhou in hand, the land of Hebei is at your fingertips."

Lu Bu couldn't answer this question, so he could only drink lightly while holding the wine in silence. After seeing Lu Bu's silent appearance, Li Ru didn't insist on asking an answer anymore.

"There are some things you don't understand, but Liu Bian is the only one who understands."

Li Ru really couldn't understand Lu Bu in front of him. He was fighting steadily and steadily. With such frequent fires of war, wouldn't Dong Zhuo's fate be a warning to the other party?

The two of them had nothing else to say, only the sound of the two drinking alone in the silent study.

The leisurely Li Ru was waiting, waiting for Lu Bu's intentions. He was about to go into seclusion. There is no one like him in the world. Lu Bu sent someone here tonight. It was Lu Bu's waiting to let him know that he still has benefits to pay picture.

As Dong Zhuo's great ambitions and hegemony disappeared, life and death were also seen through. He thought that Li Ru's reputation would be used by no one in the world. On the contrary, the most beneficial thing now is this head.

If Li Ru is killed, Hua Xiong will not rebel, and so will Xiong Kuo Hai. As long as Dong Gong's blood is still there, the three thousand flying bears will firmly serve Lu Bu.

The two silently drank the wine alone, until Lu Bu gently took out a dark golden token from his bosom.

bang bang~
The metal token rolled on the ground and made a sound, and under Li Ru's indifferent eyes, black figures appeared one after another.

The black ropes on the eaves brought black shadows down one by one, and individual figures emerged from every dark corner of the study.

The tumbling token was held respectfully in both hands by the leader of the black shadow. A total of 36 dead soldiers had indifferent eyes without any emotion. Some only had the token in their hands and the figure of Lu Bu.

"The shadows of the Lu family, 230 dead men in total, are in control of intelligence in Bingzhou, Jizhou and the world."

When he said this, Lu Bu took over the leader of the Shadow Commander and held the dark golden token in both hands, then put it on the wooden table, pushed it lightly, and pushed it in front of Li Ru.

Smart people don't need to say much, Li Ru has already understood what Lu Bu meant, the shadow of the Lu family, from now on he is the shadow of the Lu family, scouting for information from all over the world, and at the same time responsible for assassination.

Putting down the wine bottle, Li Ru slowly picked up the heavy token, with a shadow character engraved on the beautiful pattern and a Lu character on the back.

Arching his hands together, a smile appeared on the corner of Li Ru's mouth, "Farewell."

He has already received a satisfactory answer beyond expectations. Dong Gong's bloodline has been saved, Hua Xiong, Xiong Kuo Hai, and his life have all been saved.

It's not that he spared his life. In contrast, seeing the Dong family branching out, no one would want to die, as for completely turning into the shadow of the Lu family.

Hehe~ Li Ru knew that this was the price he paid, and also monitored his existence. Li Ru is dead, and this name will never appear in the long river of history. Li Ru's name has stopped being recorded in Chang'an.

The breeze blows, and the silent study room is empty, only the wine bottles on the desk opposite and a kneeling mat that is still warm.

Lu Bu chuckled at himself, maybe he hasn't become a qualified hero yet, what would Cao Cao do?
After killing Li Ru, the [-] Flying Bears split into the army completely. As for Hua Xiong and Xiong Kuo Hai, as long as Dong Zhuo's blood is there, they will not make any moves.

The lives and deaths of the two are in the middle of flipping hands, and after Li Ru's head is sent to Chang'an, it will definitely be exchanged for a reputation, the reputation of eliminating thieves for the country.

Hehe~ My heart is still softening, the scenes of Dong Zhuo treating him in Luoyang echoed in my mind, whether it was using it or other things, at least he still retained his original heart.

shadow!With the shadow of the Lu family in the dark, Li Ru has never been able to make any waves since then, as for being in charge!Hehe, Li Ru is a smart man who knows what to do.

hero!It's not bad for a hero who has a good memory of the first time in his heart. He has already made a decision, even if he is wrong, he will not regret it!
