Yuan Shao, the father of Fanghua in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 118
Lu Bu remained silent, and all the generals in the hall held their breath.

Qin Yilu looked left and right secretly, and the two generals outside the hall stared at Yuan Xi closely with sharp eyes.

The beautiful woman at the back of the hall also became nervous, for fear that this hidden tiger who spoke for herself would be killed by Lu Bu in a fit of anger.

Since she married Qin Yilu, her husband's peers and lord looked at her with malicious intent. This was the first time someone spoke up for her.

Lu Bu laughed back angrily: "Yinhu!"

"Don't think that if you give me a few ideas, you can really talk nonsense!"

"I want to win the world, but fight it out!"

"Have you been on the battlefield?"

Yuan Xi confronted him tit for tat, "I didn't go to the battlefield to see Marquis Wen and Cao Cao attacking each other, but I only saw singing and dancing, and I despised generals who run the army rigorously, but I only loved the generals' wives, and laughed and played happily in the hall."

When he said that he only loves the generals' wives, he glanced at the hall by the way, and found that Qin Yilu was stupid and did not respond, while Wei Xu's eyes were evasive, with a look of shame and indignation on his face.

Let me go, is it not Mrs. Qin Yilu who has an affair with Lu Bu, but Mrs. Wei Xu?
He suddenly remembered a passage from "Heroes".

"Wei continued to have relatives outside and inside, and he learned that the generals who seized Shun will continue with him."

It is said that because Lu Bu and Wei Xu were close relatives of the outside and inside, they seized the military power of Gao Shun's camp and handed it over to Wei Xu.

This in itself is very weird. After the key point, Wei Xu betrayed Lu Bu and surrendered Cao Cao in Kaesong.

This relationship between the outside and the inside is even more elusive.

In ancient times, husbands called their wives their wife, and wives called their husbands their husbands. For such relatives, it cannot be said that Lu Bu and Wei Xu have a husband and wife relationship, right?
Yuan Xi thought of Wei Xu's weird expression just now, and thought to himself, could it be that Lu Bu had an affair with Mrs. Wei Xu, and Wei Xu was wearing a green hat?

Thinking about it, it was really possible. Both of them were from Bingzhou. It was a custom in some places in Bingzhou that the husband would entertain distinguished guests with his family members. No wonder the Confucian gentry headed by Yuan Shao hated Bingzhou military generals so much.

Yuan Xi didn't expect that a public case might be broken unintentionally, so he quickly regained his composure.

He came up to provoke Lu Bu from the very beginning, obviously not looking for death, but Lu Bu's current state really disappointed him. After so many reminders, he still has to be so ugly. If this continues, his next plan will be difficult to carry out.

Sure enough, after hearing Yuan Xi's words, Lu Bu's face turned purple, but he had nowhere to attack. He was surprised, how could this Yinhu even know his own secret affairs!
Sure enough, he has extraordinary abilities!
Lu Bu was originally a lustful person.

Bingzhou's habits are very open, so he often covets the wives of the military generals under his command. Some generals are from Bingzhou, but they don't care much. He is also happy to see his wife throwing arms at Lu Bu.

But Qin Yilu's wife, Du Shi, was an exception. Maybe it was because her appearance was so outstanding that Lu Bu's original wife, Yan Shi, was extremely wary, but she never let Lu Bu succeed.

Therefore, Lu Bu could only let Mrs. Du accompany him to drink when he was entertaining the generals, so as to satisfy his eyesight, but he was ridiculed by Yinhu.

I don't know good from bad!

Lu Bu was unhappy, but seeing the confident look on the other side, he knew that the other side was holding his weakness.

I really don't know how to defeat Cao Cao!
In the past two months, Lu Bu fought several battles with Cao Cao, and at the beginning he still had an advantage. Cao Cao ran out of food, and Juancheng was almost lost.

Just when Lu Bu felt that victory was in sight, Cao Cao's soldiers regained their combat power, ambushed Lu Bu's army several times, and beat Lu Bu back to Chenliu.

Lu Bu couldn't think of a way, and when he was restless, the letter from Yinhu came over again, saying that he would come to Puyang City in the near future.

Lu Bu was overjoyed, this is Yinhu seeing his predicament and coming to help him again?

Could it be that he is really a man of destiny?
But I didn't expect that he entertained Yinhu with a hospitable attitude, and the other party would be so disrespectful when they met!
If it weren't for the fact that he has some ability to predict the future, someone else would have stabbed him to death!

But speaking of it, Lu Bu also felt that he had fought these few battles really ugly. He was obviously much more prepared than Cao Cao, but he just couldn't defeat Juancheng.

Lu Bu suppressed his anger strongly: "I respect you, sir, but don't be ignorant."

"Cao Cao's army is difficult to attack. Why not think of a way after I stay through the winter?"

The beautiful woman is Mrs. Du. She was worried in the back hall when she heard the two talking more and more stiffly, but she saw a person coming from the next room and said with a smile: "Madam Du is here?"

"I heard my father get angry from a distance, who is so bold to make him angry?"

Seeing this, Mrs. Du quickly stood up and saluted, "I've seen Missy."

The visitor was about sixteen or seventeen years old, with a handsome appearance and a heroic spirit. He was slender, and the fur robe on his body couldn't hide the curve of his chest at all.

It was Lu Bu's daughter, Lu Lingqi.

Du Shi replied anxiously: "I heard that the outsider is a stranger named Yinhu."

Lu Lingqi's eyes lit up: "It's this person? He must be a charlatan!"

"I heard that this man actually deceived his father?"

"See how I expose him!"

When Mrs. Du saw it, Miss Xindao was still so competitive.

Yuan Xi sneered in the outer hall and said: "Cao Cao's army has already run out of food, and Marquis Wen is still unable to attack. If winter is over, how can he win when he collects food?"

General Song Xian said at the table: "It's impossible. Cao Cao's troops are fierce in the last two fights. How could it be that there is a shortage of food?"

Yuan Xi sighed, "Unfortunately, if Marquis Wen persisted, Cao Cao's army might not have so much food."

"Let me ask, did Cao Cao's army have a lot of dried meat at that time?"

Song Xiandao: "Mr. Yinhu is brilliant, can this be counted?"

"I also tasted a few mouthfuls, and the taste is quite good."

Yuan Xi smiled and said, "That's human flesh."

Song Xianzheng was putting a piece of fat into his mouth, when he heard the words, his stomach felt nauseated, and he spat out the fat.

During the banquet, everyone also put down the wooden chopsticks in their hands.

Song Xian stammered: "Is this really true?"

Yuan Xi smiled and said, "Cheng Yu's hometown, Dong'e, did many people die?"

"There was no outbreak of disease in that place, so why did so many die suddenly?"

It was only then that everyone at the banquet came to their senses, and someone couldn't help but vomited out, "Damn it, I've eaten that jerky too!"

Lu Bu's face was rather ugly. At that time, he felt that Cao Cao's army even had meat to eat, so there must be a lot of food, so he withdrew his troops.

That's right, I was lied to!

The generals also looked at each other in blank dismay, their stomachs felt nauseated from what they just ate, and they wanted to come up.

Wu Zhao knelt behind Yuan Xi, thinking that Mr. Xindao was so sluggish, he didn't say it sooner or later, but he was disgusting when everyone was eating half of it.

It's no wonder that the generals were disgusted. Except for Gao Shun's strict military management, Lu Bu's army was more or less lax, and things like looting and poisoning the people were repeatedly prohibited.

But that's all, even the fierce and cruel Bingzhou soldiers have never heard of turning the common people into human flesh!

Du Shi and Lu Lingqi next door were also nauseated.

Yuan Xi sighed: "It's a pity, it's a pity."

Lu Bu said in a deep voice, "What can we do now?"

Yuan Xi pretended to think for a while: "Marquis Wen still has one last chance."

"In the near future, we can attack Cao Cao with all our strength. If we can't defeat him, we must plan our retreat as soon as possible."

"Otherwise Jizhou will definitely come to help, and Marquis Wen will be attacked on both sides. I'm afraid Chen Liu won't be able to keep it."

Lu Bu doubted: "Jizhou has been waiting and watching, how could it be possible to help Cao Cao?"

Yuan Xi said: "At that time, the Yuan family was attacking Qingzhou. Now that Qingzhou has been defeated, the Yuan family will not let Marquis Wen become bigger."

Lu Bu believed it seventy percent, and said in a deep voice, "What can we do now?"

Yuan Xi said: "Take Sili from the west and open up the road back to Bingzhou."

"That is the hometown of Marquis Wen, so it may not be impossible to make a comeback."

Lu Bu thought about it, this is not an easy decision, Bingzhou is poor, there are many bandits, how can Yanzhou live well!

He pondered for a while, before he said: "Rongbu thinks about it for a few days."

Yuan Xi knew that this was not a decision that could be made in a short while, so he nodded slightly immediately.

His purpose is to fool Lu Bu into Bingzhou and fight with the Heishan bandits, so that the western part of Youzhou can be guaranteed safety.

Of course, this is also a preliminary idea. After all, Lu Bu is not stupid, and it is impossible to completely abandon Yanzhou.

As soon as Lu Bu raised his head, he saw two generals standing at the entrance of the hall, and said, "Gao Shun, Wen Yuan, why don't you come in?"

After hearing this, Yuan Xi quickly turned his head away.

Gao Shun, Zhang Liao?
These are the two bricks he most wants to dig!

Only then did two generals walk in from outside the door, cupped their hands and said, "I've seen Marquis Wen."

"The barracks and the city are all normal."

Lu Bu waved his hand, "What else is there in Puyang City, sit down and have a drink!"

The two bowed to Yuan Xi again: "I have seen Mr. Yinhu."

Yuan Xi hurriedly got up to return the salute, and saw that Gao Shun was tall, expressionless, and the lines on his face were sharp and angular.

Zhang Liao, on the other hand, has piercing eyes, full of energy, and walks like a tiger.

Obviously, these two are rare fighters!

Lu Lingqi was about to go out in the rear compartment, when she saw Gao Shun and Zhang Liao coming, she said bitterly, "Forget it, Uncle Gao is here, if I want to go out now, he will definitely not teach me sword skills in the future."

"It's boring, I'll go back first."

After speaking, Lu Lingqi left like a gust of wind, leaving Mrs. Du obediently in place.

Everyone sat down and the banquet continued. Lu Bu wanted to make some remarks, but Yuan Xi refused to say anything.

He originally used the vest of Yinhu to use Lu Bu to contain Cao Cao, and poach corners by the way, how could he have said everything?
Taking advantage of the feast, he exchanged some polite words with Chen Gong, Gao Shun and Zhang Liao, but unfortunately, the three of them were tight-knit, which made Yuan Xi somewhat at a loss.

It's no wonder that he is a hermit now, so it's impossible for the three of Chen Gong to rely on him with just a few words, right?
Yuan Xi originally thought that Chen Gong, the die-hard anti-Cao Cao, still had some hope, but after some conversation, he found that Chen Gong had a lot of ideas, and he was actually quite loyal to Lu Bu!

Yuan Xi couldn't understand, didn't it mean that Lu Bu often didn't follow Chen Gong's advice, why Chen Gong was so persistent?

By the end of the banquet, Yuan Xi found that he didn't seem to have any extra gains other than pretending to be a comparison and encouraging Lu Bu and Cao Cao to fight.

However, part of the goal has been achieved. If Lu Bu attacks Cao Cao violently, Cao Cao will be in a tight spot. When he becomes able to go to Juancheng to negotiate with Cao Cao, he will be able to implement the next plan!
