The Reincarnation of Lu Bu at the End of the Han Dynasty

Chapter 427 You Are Lu Bu

In the early morning of the next day, the servants of Xiangguo's mansion sent invitations.

Lu Bu originally planned to visit Dong Zhuo in the morning, but changed his mind after reading the contents of the invitation.Since Dong Zhuo hosted a banquet, it's better to go in the evening.

Although Lu Bu is now the general of Zhenbei, from the moment he entered Luoyang City, he was basically an empty general, and he could not be transferred except for the title of general.

In this way, Lu Bu was also happy to be at leisure, enjoying the rare warm time at home with his wife and children.

At dusk, Lu Bu walked out of the mansion and headed for Dong Zhuo's Xiangguo mansion.

When he arrived at Xiangguo's mansion, Lu Bu took out the invitation card, and after the steward confirmed that it was correct, a servant brought him into the mansion.

Xiangguo Mansion occupies a very large area. In order to make the scenery unique, a lake with flowing water was specially excavated, running from north to south, connecting with Luoshui outside the city.There are many pavilions and pavilions in the mansion, not only magnificent, but also countless rare treasures are placed inside.

These good things are naturally looted from all over Luoyang.

Not long after Lu Bu left, someone greeted him warmly: "General Lu, long time no see, long time no see!"

Lu Bu followed the voice and saw the person walking towards this side with a smile on his face.

It turned out to be the former boss, Guang Lu Xun Ding Gong.

Lu Bu had been in contact with him for a period of time, and he didn't have a good impression of him, because he thought Ding Gong was a pretty talkative and kind person at first.

However, on the way back from Liaodong, when Lu Bu heard a lot about Guang Luxun's deeds, he added a new definition to him: grass on the wall.

Wherever the wind blows, it falls.

In the past when Liu Hong was alive, eunuchs were in power, and most of the Chinese and military ministers in the court thought that Ding Gong was Zhang Rang's henchman.Unexpectedly, after the death of Emperor Liu Hong, this guy immediately changed to the He family without saying a word.

Later, when Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, Ding Gong took refuge in Dong Zhuo.

When the Son of Heaven was abolished, all the officials were silent, but Ding Gong was the first to jump out, saying rebellious words such as 'today the amount of ministers should be for the sake of the society, to be sincerely in harmony with heaven and man', in order to cater to Dong Zhuo.

Therefore, Ding Gong has also been in the position of apprentice of the third company, and now he is the minister.

Reach out and don't hit the smiling man.

This has always been Lu Bu's style of conduct, and he and Ding Gong have no direct conflict of interests, so he replied: "Ding Shangshu, long time no see."

Just as Xi Ce said back then, the higher the position he climbs in the future, Lu Bu will gradually learn to adapt to the hypocrisy in the officialdom.

"When did the general return to Luoyang, why didn't you notify me in advance?"

"Ding Shangshu is busy with affairs, how can Lu be bothered."

"Hey, the general's words are wrong. The general has fought for the country and has made great military achievements. He is the humerus of my court and the pillar of the country. No matter how busy I am, I must go to the city gate to meet the general."

The two exchanged pleasantries all the way, but they didn't say a word of usefulness, but Ding Gong took a full picture of their flattery.

When entering the main hall, most of the ministers of the DPRK and China had already gathered here.

Lu Bu was on duty in Luoyang before, and there were many courtiers who could be named in the hall, Taifu Yuan Kui, Taizhong doctor Yang Biao, Situ Huangwan, Henan Yin Wangyun...

There are also many new faces. It is estimated that after Dong Zhuo cleaned up the court, he re-promoted party members or his confidantes.

The appearance of Lu Bu has attracted the attention of many people.

Yuan Kai and the others certainly recognized the Zhenbei general who was appointed by the late emperor, and the main reason they appeared in Xiangguo's mansion was also because Dong Zhuo said that he wanted to clean up the dust for Lv Bu and hold a big feast.

Lu Bu and Ding Gong appeared at the same time, talking and laughing.And Ding Gong is Dong Zhuo's running dog, so all the officials have subconsciously regarded Lu Bu as Dong Zhuo's minion.

"You are Lu Bu?"

Knowing Lu Bu's identity, the burly man sitting on the left stood up. His thick arms were like big trees, and his explosive muscles almost tore his clothes.

"Who is your Excellency?"

Lu Bu glanced up and down, seeing his attire, he should be someone from Liangzhou.

The burly man reported his name: "I am Hu Zhen."

Lu Bu had some vague impressions of this name, but he didn't bother to think about it slowly.Hearing Hu Zhen's tone, it seemed that the visitor was not kind, but he was not afraid: "What advice do you have?"

Hu Zhen walked up to Lu Bu from his position. In terms of size, he was still much shorter than Lu Bu, so he raised his head and challenged arrogantly: "I heard that you are very good at fighting, let's try it?"

The people of Liangzhou were fierce and aggressive, and Dong Zhuo's generals were even more so.

Before Lv Bu could speak, a man next to Hu Zhen couldn't sit still, stood up and shouted: "Okay, Hu Wencai, you clearly agreed, let me come first, you are so thick-skinned to be the first to attack now. Come on!"

As he said that, the man looked at Lu Bu and also challenged him: "Lu Bu, I would like to compete with you!"

"Lu Fengxian, I've heard about your reputation, and now my hands are itchy too!" Another man also stood up.

The two people beside Hu Zhen, one is called Li Meng, the other is called Wang Fang, all three are Dong Zhuo's generals.

When Lu Bu was in Chang'an, the three of them had not yet joined Dong Zhuo's command, and they also heard about Lu Bu's deeds from other people later.

The smell of gunpowder in the air is strong, and it is about to explode.

All the officials in the hall didn't intend to dissuade them at all. As the so-called matter has nothing to do with themselves, they even wished that Lu Bu and the others would fight immediately.

Only Ding Gong stepped forward and acted as a peacemaker, persuading: "The generals, everyone is serving for the grand master, why should the family hurt their peace?"

Hu Zhen glanced at Ding Gong, and didn't intend to show Ding Shangshu's face, he laughed and said, "One size counts for one size, I just want to compete with him. Lu Bu, just tell me if you dare to agree with him or not?" I fight?"

The ignorant are fearless.

Lu Bu is not afraid, others have bullied him to the door, so there is no reason to back down and admit cowardice.Just as he was about to respond, there was a distant voice from the eunuch outside the hall: "Your Majesty is here~~"

All the ministers and officials in the hall got up one after another and walked to the door to greet them.Lu Bu Hu Zhen and the others also came out and waited for Shengjia.

The six-year-old son of heaven got off the imperial eunuch in front of the hall, and the eunuch who was close to him held Liu Xie's palm and walked forward step by step.

All the officials bowed and saluted, and said in their mouths: "I wait to pay my respects to Your Majesty, my emperor will last forever."

But at the same time when the officials bowed and lowered their heads, a fat figure swaggered over from the side, stood in front of the emperor, facing the officials, with fists on hips, enjoying the salute of the officials.

"You courtiers are really polite. We are all officials in the same court. Why do you have to give such a big courtesy to this Grand Master? Get up quickly, get up quickly."

Dong Zhuo laughed and said, the expression on his face was obviously quite complacent.

The courtiers heard Dong Zhuo's voice, looked up, they were both shocked and angry, Dong Zhuo actually ignored the courtesy of the emperor and stood in front of the emperor!
