Chapter 802

Guanzhong, Chang'an City.

At the end of the year, there was a light snow, and the whole northern land was covered with a thin layer of white gauze. Five or six fast horses came galloping from afar, and the riders on the horses were weather-beaten.

The school officer guarding the city gate saw the person showing the token with the word "Lv" on his face. He looked in awe, and did not dare to stop him at all, let alone exploit and interrogate him, and obediently let him go as quickly as possible.

"Great victory!"

"The general regained Yanzhou, beat Cao's army hard, and wiped out more than [-] enemy thieves!

"Our army won a complete victory, and captured more than [-] prisoners..."

The horseshoes galloped through the city, and the cavalrymen held up the battle report written by Lu Bu himself in their hands, and passed it on with a loud roar, which soon resounded throughout the streets in Chang'an City.

The patrolling soldiers in the city were awed by it, and the rich Chang'an households who were warming themselves by the fire at home, as well as the local people, ran out of their houses one after another, looking at the cavalrymen who were only left behind, their simple and honest faces were full of joy and cheers.

"The general is really powerful!" Someone exclaimed.

"That's not bad. The general's martial arts is the best in the world. Who knows who doesn't know? But those rebellious officials and thieves dare to resist, they are digging their own graves!"

A man with the appearance of a butcher was full of flesh, talking loudly, saliva flying, wishing he could kill all those thieves.

Although the common people are not well educated and can't read two big characters, they still understand the basic principles.The general was ordered by the emperor to leave the customs, justice is naturally on their side.

It is also for this reason that after Lu Bu forcibly seized Yanzhou, almost no one dared to say that he came from a wrong path, and there were countless people who took the initiative to curry favor with the dependents.

"Father, I want to be a general in the future!"

"Hahaha, son said well, he is promising!"

The middle-aged man with the child in his arms laughed, obviously very happy.

The people around were also chattering and praising the general.

Whenever he wins a battle, Lu Bu will definitely send people back to Guanzhong to publicize it. This is not only to let Baixin build up confidence in Lu Bu, but also to let them have confidence in this country.

After so many years, in the hearts of the people, Lu Bu is like a god of war, galloping and charging to destroy the thieves, invincible, which makes them feel very at ease.

This also made Lu Bu's prestige among the people continue to grow, reaching the popular will.

Not long after, the cavalry captain who led the team parted ways with the others in the city, rode a fast horse, and went to Da Sima's mansion alone.

A cavalry soldier named 'Lin Er' entered the Da Sima Mansion. After waiting patiently in the living room for a while, he saw a dignified and elegant woman walking towards him. Although she was dressed plainly, her speech and behavior showed everyone's demeanor .

Guessing the identity of the visitor, Lin Er hurriedly lowered his head and cupped his fists in salute: "I've seen my wife, Lin Er, the personal guard of the humble flying general camp."

"General Lin, you don't need to be polite, please sit down and talk."

Yan Wei responded with a gentle smile and asked the maid to bring tea and snacks, as a treat.

Lin Er was very touched by how the eldest lady treats others so easily, he took out the letter box from his pocket, and handed it over respectfully: "This is a letter written by the general, this time when the humble post returns to Beijing to report success, the general will let the low post take it along with you." Go back and give it to Madam."

The maid Yu'er stepped forward to take it with both hands, and transferred it to the desk where Yan Wei was sitting.

"How is my husband recently? Didn't my son and daughter get into trouble in the army?" Yan Wei didn't rush to open the letter in the bamboo tube, and asked with great concern.

"Everything is fine with the general, the eldest lady and the young master are also very heroic, especially the young master, not only has supernatural powers, but also almost captured the enemy's commander." Lin Er replied truthfully.

"Xiao'er is on the battlefield?"

Yan Wei was surprised, because before that, her husband had promised her that she would keep her children away from the flames of war.

"Is Xiao'er injured, is it serious, does it matter?" As the saying goes, concern is chaos, and when she heard that her son had been on the battlefield, Yan Wei, a mother, couldn't help feeling frightened.

"Madam, don't worry, young master is fine." Lin Er replied.

After hearing this reply, Yan Wei finally breathed a sigh of relief, but she also made up her mind that she must write a letter to bring her children back, because the battlefield is too dangerous.If you are not careful, you will lose your life.

Afterwards, Yan Wei asked many more questions, most of which were trivial things in life.

Lin Er didn't dare to neglect, and reported everything truthfully.

After Yan Wei's questioning was over, Lin Er bid farewell with fists in his hands, ready to leave Da Sima's mansion.

When walking to the atrium, a well-known and handsome maidservant came slowly, and Lin Er accepted a blessing, and said modestly and politely: "General, my master has a few words to ask you."

In this mansion, besides Yan Wei, who can be called the master, there is also a concubine Diao Chan who is called "little lady" by outsiders.Although it is a concubine's room, she is extremely favored.

"Gentleman, please tell me." Lin Er didn't dare to neglect, and bowed back with fists clasped.

"My master asked, has the general found a new love during these days of expedition? Or, has there ever been a woman who recommended a pillow?"

"The general is busy with the military, so he seldom goes out of the barracks." Lin Er replied respectfully, and then added with a little embarrassment, "As for whether there are women who recommend themselves as pillow seats, I really don't know."

Fortunately, the maid did not make things difficult for Lin Er, and let him go after asking this question.

Later, the maid went to Dongyuan with the answer.

In the well-furnished house, the burning charcoal fire makes the room very warm.

A woman sat lazily in front of the dressing table, staring at the beautiful face in the bronze mirror, dazed.

The maid opened the door and entered, called 'Master', and then reported the answer she had just received in a low voice.

The beautiful woman's face was much relieved, but her gaze was still looking at herself in the mirror, as if she was talking to herself, or asking the maid who entered the house: "Am I beautiful?"

"Master, you are the most beautiful woman in this world that this maidservant has ever seen." The maidservant praised from the bottom of her heart.

"Then why... Junhou has been away for a year, but he didn't write a letter to me?"

The beautiful woman in the bronze mirror looked gloomy, and her beautiful pear rain eyes were full of confusion.

Seeing her master's ignorant appearance, the servant girl suddenly felt a little distressed: "Maybe the general is busy with official duties, or the war is tight..."

The beautiful woman shook her head, because Junhou has no feelings for me.

I was favored by me before, but it was because of its freshness and my beautiful skin that is unparalleled in the world.But one day, I will be old and have wrinkles...

At that time, it is estimated that he will not even look at me.

This is the fate of women.

Seeing the expression on Diao Chan's face suddenly turned lonely, the maidservant feared that she might be thinking wildly, so she took two steps forward and comforted her in a loud voice: "Master, please don't think wildly, you are still young and have a lot of time, wait until the future to be big The general gave birth to a son and daughter, how can there be a place for you in this huge mansion..."

Hearing these words, a ray of hope rose in Diao Chan's heart, and then he calmed down, exhaled, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and there was an alluring smile on his face: "So many girls who follow me through the house belong to you." The smartest."

"Thank you, master, for your compliment." The servant girl replied humbly.

"When Junhou comes back, I will definitely be able to conceive a child."

Looking at the beautiful face in the mirror, Diao Chan murmured, stretching out her jade fingers to gently caress her, the skin that can be broken by blowing blows is like suet white snow.

Thinking of the envy she had for Yan Wei just now, Diao Chan put on her rouge and suddenly felt a little funny that I would be jealous of this woman uglier than me.

Yan Wei is in her early thirties this year, and her youthful beauty has gradually faded away. In a few years, she will grow old and be disgusted by the prince.

Diao Chan felt a little happy in her heart, and by then, this mansion would become her own world.

"Has your husband ever been better?"

As soon as the subject changed, Diao Chan asked seemingly casually.

The maid did not answer, but reminded in a low voice: "Master, forgive me for talking too much, it seems that your concern for Mr. Joker is too much. If this is passed to the ears of those who care, it may damage your reputation." tarnish."

"It's just an ordinary concern. If you don't do anything wrong, why should you be afraid of rumors outside?" Diao Chan didn't take it to heart at all.

Perhaps Xi Ce has long forgotten what happened back then. Even if he is as smart as he is, he would never have expected that the little girl who was given wheat cake by him back then would grow up to become the favorite concubine of the general today.

Diao Chan has always been grateful for drama strategies.

At the gate of the mansion, the Eldest Prince Lu Zhuan came back from the academy, followed by two servants holding a fainted old man, dressed in rags, who looked like an old beggar on the side of the road.

After the servant at the door stepped forward to salute respectfully, he asked a little puzzled, "My lord, are you...?"

Lu Zhuan looked back at the old man, and patiently told what happened.

It turned out that when Lu Zhuan came back from school, he saw this old man passed out by the side of the road on the way. Now it was the freezing season, Lu Zhuan couldn't bear to see him frostbite, so he took him back to the mansion.

After the old man wakes up, ask him where he lives and send someone to take him back.

"My son's heart is kind, and I will be blessed by God." The servant in charge of the gate said with emotion.

Lu Zhuan ordered his servants to take the old man to rest, and to inform him if the old man woke up.

Afterwards, Lu Zhuan returned to his study and began to read and review his homework.

Perhaps it was because of being too tired, halfway through the book, Lu Zhuan couldn't hold on, and fell asleep lying on the table.

"Qingtong, why did your father only take your older sister and younger brother with him when he went out to fight, but not you?"

"Is it because your father doesn't like you and thinks you're useless?"

"Of course his father doesn't like him, otherwise what else could it be!"

"Your father is brave and invincible, but you are nothing like it. You are nothing but a waste."

"Hahaha……"

"Hahaha……"

In the dream, there were many voices constantly echoing in my ears, either sarcastic or arrogant.

"No! No!"

Lu Zhuan shouted angrily, trying to drive away the crowd in front of him, but found that he couldn't drive them away. Those ugly mouths kept swaying in front of his eyes, and his brain was about to explode.

Ah!
Ah!
Ah!
Accompanied by a burst of angry shouts, Lu Zhuan suddenly opened his eyes, pressed his hands on the table and rose up, until the books in front of him and the surrounding things gradually became clear, he realized that he was just dreaming.

"Young boy, what's wrong with you?"

Hearing the movement, Sun Yi who was sitting in the room turned around hastily, with suspicion written all over his face.

Lu Zhuan wiped off the cold sweat on his forehead, shook his head slightly, adjusted his mentality, and said to Sun Yi: "It's nothing, I just had a nightmare."

It was a dream.

Only then did Sun Yi feel relieved, and casually complained: "The old fellows in the academy have had so many problems for nothing. This is clearly trying to exhaust us to death. If I fall asleep, I guess nightmares will come one after another..."

Sun Yi has a straightforward and irritable temperament, very similar to his elder brother Sun Ce.

For this reason, he did a lot of fighting in Taixue, and Lu Zhuan wiped his ass every time.

"Subbi, tell me...does my father really dislike me?" Lu Zhuan hesitated, but still confided his heart to his little friend.

"I don't know this, but if the general really doesn't like you, then you have to live up to it!"

As he said that, Sun Yi put his hands on Lu Zhuan's shoulders, and cheered him up solemnly: "No matter what people outside say, in short, I am very optimistic about you!"

Lu Zhuan smiled and said sincerely, "Thank you!"

…………

At this time, Chang'an City Imperial Palace, Chongming Hall.

Emperor Liu Xie is reading the memorials submitted from the Sangong Office to learn the basic methods of handling government affairs.

Before that, under the inducement and flattery of the eunuchs around him, Liu Xie had been the emperor of pleasure for a long time, until one night Gaozu entrusted him with a dream and told him to work hard so as not to ruin the Han Dynasty.

Only then did Liu Xie come to his senses, removed those flattering eunuchs, abandoned beauty and fun, and refocused on state affairs.

"Your Majesty, great victory, great victory!"

Outside the palace, Xu Kai, the servant of the Yellow Gate, held the bamboo slips in both hands, and walked into the palace with great joy, his face could not hide his joy.

Seeing Xu Kai so happy, Liu Xie couldn't be happier. He knew that Xu Kai belonged to Lv Bu's party, but his face remained calm: "Why is Xu Qing's family so happy?"

"The general defeated Cao Cao in Yanzhou, and our army won a complete victory. This is the report from the Taiwei's mansion just now, please read it!" Xu Kai bowed and presented the bamboo slips in his hand.

Liu Xie glanced at Zou Jian, and said lightly: "I already know about this matter, if Xu Qing's family has nothing else to do, they can leave first."

"Minister, leave."

The servant of the Huangmen gate speculated about the holy will in his heart, and bowed out of the hall.

When Xu Kai left, Liu Xie ordered people to close the gate of the hall.

Then he threw the sheet of music that hadn't been seen yet on the ground, making a crisp sound of 'cracking'. Liu Xie walked over and stomped on it with his feet, as if venting the long-suppressed anger in his heart.

"Your Majesty, calm down." The eunuch Han Xuan, his confidant, advised him well.

"Calm your anger? How can you tell me to calm my anger!"

Liu Xie stomped over and over again, his face full of sternness, and his voice suppressed great anger: "I am sitting in Chang'an City, but if you look outside, the common people only know the majesty of the general, and how many people know it?" The Great Han Dynasty, and I, the Son of Heaven!"

"Tomorrow in the court, Lu Bu's party members will definitely bring up the matter of becoming king again. At that time, what can I do! What should I do? If I really become the king, I might as well send this great Han country along with me. For him, Lu Bu is fine!"

Liu Xie gritted his teeth. He is 16 years old, and he is no longer the ignorant child he was back then.

He is the Son of Heaven, just as his father said before his death, since he is the Son of Heaven, all the people in the world should be ruled by him!

Seeing that the emperor was very angry, Han Xuan said in a low voice: "I have a way, I don't know if it is feasible or not."

"Let's talk and listen."

Liu Xie suppressed his anger, Han Xuan had been with him for many years and won his trust.

Han Xuan moved over, covered his mouth with his hands, and whispered something in front of Liu Xie.

 Thanks to book friend Bu Hui Qi Ming for the reward of a thousand coins.
