Lang Zhongling's mansion, the backyard.

In the gazebo, Li Ruzheng was having a drink with Niu Fu.

Niu Fu looked satisfied, put a piece of tofu into his mouth, swallowed it with a slurp, and said with a look of intoxication: "Wenyou, I have to say that the dishes created by Wang Lei are delicious. You see, this is so simple. It is a miracle that ordinary tofu can produce such a taste, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a miracle. The tofu we used to eat tasted dull, how can it have the color and fragrance now. This kid is also a great poet and a great calligrapher , how did the head grow?"

Li Ru snorted, and said, "Don't build up other people's aspirations, destroy your own prestige."

Niu Fu said: "I don't have it, this cooking skill is really good."

Li Ru snorted, and said, "Wang Lei's head is very bright, but he has ulterior motives. His culinary skills have flattered Xiangguo and those old ministers with evil intentions, and he has both sides. You say, it's good for us ?"

Niu Fu chewed his mouth, gulped down the pig's trotters, spat out the bones, and said, "I'm not as capable as you, and I don't have your mind to take care of things. Anyway, I think it's good to eat, and I'll be fine in the days to come." Much more comfortable."

Li Ru shook his head, picked up the wine bottle helplessly, raised his head and drank it down.

Both are Dong Zhuo's son-in-law, but their status is different.

Li Ru is Dong Zhuo's right-hand man, with a lot of power in his hands, if he stomps his feet, there will be an earthquake in Chang'an.However, Niu Fu is just a general stationed at the checkpoint, and he only returns to Chang'an occasionally, and his power is far inferior to that of Li Ru.

The two ate food, drank wine, and chatted.

Seeing Li Ru's frowning face, Niu Fu knew that this guy definitely wanted to kill Wang Lei.

Unfortunately, Wang Lei is not jealous either.

Niu Fu thought for a while, and said, "Wen You, I think you caused this. Back then, Wang Lei stayed in Jizhou well, but he would not have come to Chang'an. It was you who kept pushing Xiangguo to make the situation worse. Xiangguo transferred Wang Lei to Chang'an. Now, Wang Lei is flourishing in Chang'an, becoming popular and famous all over the world, and you think Wang Lei's staying in Chang'an is a disaster. If you knew this, you shouldn't let Wang Lei come ah!"

The corner of Li Ru's mouth twitched, is he shooting himself in the foot?

However, there is no medicine for regret in this world!After thinking about it, Li Ru widened his eyes and asked, "Niu Fu, what did you say in the last sentence just now?"

Niu Fu was taken aback, wondering what Li Ru was going to do?Seeing Li Ru's serious appearance, Niu Fu said, "I said you knew this earlier, you shouldn't have let Wang Lei come to Chang'an in the first place."

"Hahaha……"

Suddenly, Li Ru laughed loudly.

This laughter reached Niu Fu's ears, making Niu Fu feel panicked.

This guy shouldn't be insane!

Seeing Li Ru's eyes narrowed into a line, Niu Fu knew that Li Ru had bad intentions again, and this time, Wang Lei might suffer.However, Niu Fu still disapproved of Li Ru, and said in his heart, "Li Ru is really pitiful. He wholeheartedly plans for Xiangguo. He has broken his heart and is thankless. Why should he be so comfortable and care about so many things!"

Li Ru cupped his hands and said, "I have to go to Meiwu, you can eat by yourself."

Niu Fu rolled his eyes, and Li Ru left. He ate alone without taste, and after a few mouthfuls, he also got up and left Li Ru's mansion.Li Ru changed into a suit of clothes and rushed directly to Meiwu.

After arriving at Meiwu, Li Ru, led by the soldiers, came to the study.

Dong Zhuo asked, "Wen You, what's the matter?"

Li Ru looked humble, and said respectfully: "Reporting to Xiangguo, there is indeed one thing. Yesterday morning, Jiangdong Sun Ce sent an envoy to Chang'an to visit Xiangguo."

Dong Zhuo frowned and asked, "For what?"

Li Ru replied: "Sun Ce wants to take the position of prefect of Wujun, and at the same time, he wants to marry Xiangguo's daughter."

Dong Zhuo frowned and said, "This Sun Ce is Sun Jian's son, right? In the past, I saw that Sun Jian was a talented person. He took the initiative to win over Sun Jian and wanted to marry his daughter to Sun Jian's son, but Sun Jian directly refused. Now, Sun Ce's daughter who took the initiative to ask for the truth probably went there for the position of prefect of Wujun."

Li Ru nodded and replied: "Xiangguo is wise, and the humble official also thinks that Sun Ce is for the post of prefect of Wu County. However, if Xiangguo can win Sun Ce, it is worth it. Sun Ce and Yuan Shu are next to each other, and adjacent to Liu Biao in Jingzhou. If Sun Ce The rise of Wu County will certainly be able to contain Yuan Shu and Liu Biao. Then Liu Bei captured the Jade Seal of Chuanguo, and was Sun Ce's father-killing enemy. Now that Liu Bei controls Runan, he will gradually become a powerful party, which is difficult to control. As long as Sun Ce's strength develops , the south must contain each other, and the Xiangguo will rule under the arch, that is peace of mind."

Dong Zhuo's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but nod in praise.

This analysis is not bad!

After thinking about it carefully, Dong Zhuo said: "Your suggestion is very good. After Sun Ce's rise, it can indeed balance the situation in the south. Then Liu Bei claims to be a bullshit royal family, and it is annoying to watch. It is not bad that Sun Ce is thinking about Liu Bei. The truth has agreed to this matter, you should reply to Sun Ce's envoy and prepare to marry the truth's daughter."

Li Ru said again: "I'm afraid the road to Jiangdong will not be peaceful. People like Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Yuan Shu, and Liu Biao will not sit back and watch Xiangguo marry Sun Ce."

Dong Zhuo said impatiently, "Speak directly, what's your idea?"

Li Ru said: "Since we want to get married, we must succeed. This time the mission is going to Jiangdong, I suggest sending Lu Bu and Wang Lei to accompany them for protection. There are three advantages to having Lu Bu and Wang Lei here."

"First, Lu Bu and Wang Lei are both top-notch generals in the world, with superb martial arts skills. Leading troops to Jiangdong and passing through the spheres of influence of various princes along the way will surely strengthen the prestige of the Xiliang Army, so that the princes of the world dare not underestimate them. Xiangguo."

"Secondly, Lv Bu and Wang Lei led troops to escort them. When they arrive in Wujun, they can also give Sun Cezhuang a boost, so that the strength around Wujun will not dare to underestimate Sun Ce, and ensure Sun Ce's rapid rise."

"Third, our strength is tyrannical. After Sun Ce saw it, he didn't dare to belittle the person who married in the past."

Li Ru talked eloquently and analyzed clearly.

"I'm ready to marry Sun Ce." Dong Zhuo smiled and said, "Among Zhenxiang's daughters, Dong Yu is 16 years old and has reached the age of marriage. Dong Yu will marry."

"As ordered!"

Li Ru bowed his hands and said, "Xiangguo, I will immediately bring Sun Ce's envoy Zhu Zhi to Meiwu."

Dong Zhuo shook his head and said, "No need, you can arrange it directly."

"Please rest assured, Xiangguo, the humble job must be properly arranged." Li Ru's mouth curled up with a smile, and he exited the study respectfully.After leaving Meiwu, Li Ru returned to the mansion and arranged for someone to convey the news.

Zhu Zhi was ecstatic when he got the news.

Unexpectedly, the task of this trip was completed directly.

On the way to Chang'an, Zhu Zhi thought it would be difficult, but he didn't expect that Li Ru would fully support him, and it would be so smooth.Zhu Zhi went to Li Ru's mansion again, met with Li Ru, discussed with him, and returned to his residence to wait.

In Wang Lei's mansion, the study room.

After the news came, Wang Lei's face was solemn, he did not expect such an order.He is the shepherd of Jizhou, but he went to Jiangdong as the deputy envoy of the mission. What does this mean?He is not an official in the court, escorting Dong Zhuo's daughter to marry is simply ridiculous!
