Three Kingdoms: At the beginning, Lu Bu was mistaken for his father-in-law

Chapter 239 238 Determination, enter the game!

The imperial court usually sends angels to the government office to read the imperial decrees first, and then circulates them to the counties. Finally, the thirteen prefectures will have the announcements.

For example, when Liu Cong was named Taichang Taizhu of the imperial court, the angel arrived in Xiangyang first, and then he would pass on the list in Jingxiang counties.

Then, Liu Qi laughed from ear to ear.

Wonderful, send my stupid brother to Xuchang, then no one will compete with me.

Liu Qi didn't understand why others wanted to call Cao Cao a traitor, but he was clearly a pillar of a great man, how understanding he was.

Of course, this was just Liu Qi's bad taste. He knew that it should be Cao Cao who wanted to hold a hostage. At this time, the most favored Liu Cong was obviously more suitable than his eldest son Liu Qi.

The Autumn Harvest Temple Fair in Jingxiang is coming soon, Liu Qi is going to return to Xiangyang this time, he must perform well in front of Liu Biao, and at the same time take this opportunity to get closer to the big families gathered in Xiangyang.

In the past, you had no choice due to the Cai family's despicable power, but now it's different. Once Liu Cong goes to Xuchang, I will be the future Lord of Jingxiang, and everyone can discuss it.

Zhuge Liang was not as optimistic as he was. How could Cao Cao be a kind person? It is absolutely impossible to do such a thing of helping others. Offending the Jingxiang family to support a Liu Qi who is of no help to him is impossible.

"Currently Lü Bu is in charge of the Northern Kingdom. Although he has not been able to sweep the four prefectures, it is only a matter of time before the Hebei and Qing prefectures. Lin Moding can help him stabilize the interior.

However, Cao Cao only won one Bingzhou, and lost his troops in Anfeng. I am afraid that it will be difficult for him to think about the Northern Kingdom for a while, and the only one who can catch his eyes can only be Jingzhou, the belly of the world. In fact, he was provoking civil strife in Jingxiang so that he could take advantage of it. "

Zhuge Liang said these words to Liu Bei in private, he didn't want to dampen Liu Qi's enthusiasm.

Since coming out of the mountains, although Zhuge Liang has no chance to shine in the military, his contacts have really helped Liu Bei a lot. Today's Changsha needs soldiers, money, food, and food. It's all Zhuge Liang's hard work.

In return, Liu Bei slept with him every night.

Therefore, there is still a lot of time for the two of them to get along in private.

"Sir, are you saying that Cai Mao may attack the young master during the Autumn Harvest Temple Fair?" In the bedroom of the General's Mansion, an oil lamp flickered on and off next to Liu Bei, who was kneeling on the mat with a look of horror on his face.

"Compared to Liu Cong, the Eldest Young Master's voice is of course far less than that, but Cai Mao dare not do anything to the Eldest Young Master unless it is absolutely necessary. Otherwise, even the prestige of the Cai family may not be able to resist the evil consequences."

The autumn tiger is fierce, Zhuge Liang waved the feather fan to bring a little bit of coolness, and said in a deep voice: "But in Cai Mao's eyes, the young master can secure the position of the prefect of Changsha in such a short period of time, and add more soldiers and food, it must be given by the lord." He helps."

Liu Bei raised his eyes and looked at Zhuge Liang, "You mean, Cai Mao might attack me during the temple fair?"

Xun You's strategy, the most hopeful outcome is Liu Biao's death, even if it fails, killing Liu Bei should cause quite a stir.

After all, he always wears the hat of the emperor's uncle, and his two younger brothers will not let it go.

Zhuge Liang was not evil enough to see through Xun You's clever plan at a glance, but after the imperial edict entered Jingzhou, he deduced a series of possible situations, among which the most likely one was to attack Liu Bei.

Regardless of whether the Cai family managed to get the emperor to change the imperial decree in the end, it is a fact that Liu Qi became a big one, and it is also a fact that Liu Bei served as a helper. From this perspective alone, it is not difficult to judge the degree of danger of this trip.

"Cai Mao dares to kill me in Xiangyang City?"

Seeing Zhuge Liang nod his head, Liu Bei pondered for a moment, and said suspiciously: "Brother Jing Sheng doesn't give orders, how dare he act recklessly."

"My lord, Cai Mao is the general of Jingzhou. There are many families in the Autumn Harvest Temple Fair. He must be responsible for the security of the city. The mobilization of thousands of people is nothing more than a trivial matter."

Zhuge Liang still waved his feather fan slowly and said calmly: "Besides, he naturally does not dare to take action in the city. Instead, he will wait for the Autumn Harvest Temple Fair to end and the family officials return to their jurisdiction to ambush him, fearing that he will be unable to prevent them."

After such an analysis, Liu Bei felt a little uneasy.

Of course, this kind of temple fair also allows officials and families to accompany some guards, but usually the number cannot exceed 500 people. How can they stop Xiangyang iron cavalry?

Although Guan Yu and Zhang Fei have the ability to fight against thousands of people, they are obviously unable to withstand the charge of thousands of cavalry.

Seeing the uneasy look on Liu Bei's face, Zhuge Liang quickly pressed his hands and said with a smile: "I have prepared everything for my lord, so there is no need to worry, my lord."

"Mr. predicts the enemy first, which is admirable. I don't know how to break the situation?" In front of Zhuge Liang, Liu Bei really behaved like a well-behaved and motivated student.

"I have already found a man in the army. His body and appearance are five or six points similar to the lord. Cai Mao may not be able to detect him when it is near dark before leaving the city. After he leads the army out of the city, the lord will look for another city gate. But after Cai Mao reacted, he couldn't catch up."

Liu Bei didn't clap his hands like Zhuge Liang thought, but looked at him with some surprise, the light in his eyes dimmed, and said with a wry smile: "If you follow Mr. Hundreds of soldiers are going to die innocently, this action is detrimental to righteousness, and the benevolent will not do it."

Zhuge Liang was slightly taken aback, trying to persuade Liu Bei, but he saw the latter paused, with an expression of enlightenment on his face, "I see, sir is trying to kill two birds with one stone. This move will not only save me from danger, but also put the matter to rest." Pass it on to Brother Jing Sheng, and take heavy responsibility for Cai Mao."

"It's killing three birds with one stone."

The corners of Zhuge Liang's mouth raised slightly, "It was Cai Mao who made the first move. He harmed the emperor and uncle for no reason. He couldn't justify himself morally. All the big families will be alienated because of this. Even if we want to attack the Cai family in the future, we will be famous as a teacher." .”

This is what Zhuge Liang really wanted.

However, Liu Bei still didn't make the case as he thought, and shook his head, "Sir, this plan is astounding, but I can't do such a thing if I want to put five hundred soldiers in the army to death." of."

The two of them have been together for a long time. Of course he knows that Liu Bei is very benevolent, but he never thought that he would give up such a great opportunity to build momentum for the sake of benevolence in his heart.

"Sir, this plan is not benevolent. Forgive me for not accepting it. Now that I know that Cai Mao may want to attack, I just need to be more careful. He may not be able to easily succeed."

Seeing Zhuge Liang's hesitation, Liu Bei smiled wryly and said, "Life is a matter of life and death. If God really wanted me to die in Xiangyang, I would have no complaints or regrets."

Zhuge Liang hurriedly put down his feather fan, stood up and bowed and said, "Don't worry, my lord, I'm sure I won't let my lord fall into danger."

Liu Bei is not as vicious and vicious as Cao Cao, and he is bound to bind his hands and feet when he does things; he is also not as good as Lu Bu who can ignore all morals in the world, so he often lags behind others.

However, Liu Bei's benevolence and righteousness are not proclaimed, but engraved in the bone marrow and reflected in daily chores. It is precisely because of this that the people in Changsha counties are full of praise for him.

Based on this alone, Zhuge Liang felt that there is no other prince in the world who can compare to Liu Bei.

As for those dark and invisible things, as long as it is a critical time, he will have a way to let Liu Bei make a choice.

After all, the mountains and rivers have been broken, and the smoldering flames are far away from thousands of miles away. If you want to make Haiyan and Heqing clear, you can't rely on benevolence alone. When it's time to be overbearing, you still have to be overbearing.

Jizhou, Qinghe County, Dongwu City, Cuijia.

Cui Yan, who is in his early forties, has a goat beard and a Confucian crown on his head. Cui Yan, who is upright, was originally in a very good mood.

Because today, Chi Xi, a classmate from more than ten years ago, came to visit. It should have been a friend coming from afar.

It's just that after Xi Liu explained the purpose of his trip, Cui Yan couldn't be happy anymore, and his face was darker than Zhang Fei's.

Even though he didn't like Lu Bulinmo, the Weng son-in-law who was a refugee, even though he also thought that the two were not right, but what was the status of the Cui family, how could they do such a dirty thing.

But what did Chi Chi bring, the Blood Edict of the Son of Heaven, the edict accuses Lu Bu, Weng and his son-in-law of the unspeakable crimes of the past few years, and almost blames them for the chaos in the world. The Cui family, which Han called himself, also helped Yuan Shao in the name of the Qing emperor.

Naturally, he could not remain indifferent to this blood edict.

Coupled with the righteousness that Guo Jia taught Xi Ji, Cui Yan was kidnapped by morality. If he does not help, he will be a moth of the Han Dynasty. He is unwilling to help when he sees the emperor crying blood. , then the Cui family will be in trouble.

Moreover, people have also said that after the matter is completed, the imperial court will issue an imperial edict to show that the Cui family is contributing to the emperor, and Cui Yan will also serve as the governor of Qingzhou.

Since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the idea of ​​abolishing all schools of thought, respecting Confucianism alone, and serving the country with loyalty to the emperor is actually the consensus of scholars all over the world, and Cui Yan is no exception.

He was very embarrassed, and it took more than an hour to pace back and forth in the hall before he finally sat down and faced Xi Ji again, "Are you thinking too simple about this matter? You lured Lv Bu to kill Dong Zhuo, do you still want to follow suit?"

He looked melancholy, shook his head and said: "Besides, I saw the man you brought just now. Although he is very good-looking and looks like a lady, but compared with Diao Chan back then, even a finger However, trying to use beauty tricks to drive a wedge between Lu Lin and the two of them would be ridiculous."

After finishing speaking, Cui Yan seemed not satisfied, and added: "And I don't think she can laugh, she's cold, and won't win Lu Bu's favor."

But Xi Xi showed a meaningful smile, "Back then, Wang Situ set up a beauty trick because Lv Bu was not wise. What kind of smart Lin Mo is, how can he hide it from him."

Not a beauty trick?
It's not why you have to marry someone over there.

Cui Yan stared at Xi Xi with some confusion, as if hoping to get an answer from his face.

But this matter is very important. After hearing this secret, Chi Ji had to send the whole family to Cao Cao. How could he tell Cui Yan so easily? He could only say in a deep voice, "Brother Ji Gui, what should I do? Clearly, what Brother Ji Gui has to do is to give her an identity, and then marry in the name of the Cui family, and now the northern family is ashamed of Lu Lin and cannot tolerate it, so he is willing to marry."

"It's not difficult to give her an identity."

Cui Yan's own daughter is obviously impossible, this matter is too dirty, and even if his daughter is raised in a boudoir, it is impossible for no one to see her.

But if it is just to give an identity, with the huge Cui family group, it is not difficult to find a niece who really stays at home and rarely sees people.

"But Brother Cai said just now that the northern family is incompatible."

Cui Yan gave a wry smile, shook his head and said, "That was before. Lin Mo really has a plan. For this year's autumn harvest event, it is estimated that the heads of all the great families will rush to Yecheng."

"what?"

Xi Xi looked surprised, "This, this, this, how is this possible, now who doesn't know that Lu Bu is coercing Yuan Shang to order the North Kingdom, even if the big families at the autumn harvest festival do not want to publicly offend Lu Bu, at most they will send a few It’s enough to be a representative, how can we summon all the Patriarchs!”

Xi Xi felt that this was a bit of a fantasy. He had traveled to many places in these years. Except for Cao Cao, who held the emperor in his hand, he could use the edict of the emperor to order all the heads of the two prefectures to hold temple fairs in Xuchang. The local princes can do it.

In fact, Cui Yan himself was very helpless. Even Yuan Shao, who was in full swing in the past, couldn't do this step after he destroyed Gongsun Zan and took the land of the four states into his pocket.

At least the heads of Qinghe Cui's, Zhaojun's Li's and Fanyang's Lu's families seldom attended. After all, a rich family must have the prestige of a rich family, so sending a deputy is considered a way of saving face.

But Lin Mo, he really did it. Of course, this matter was done with great effort.

"Don't talk, don't talk."

Cui Yan waved his hand bitterly, "I'm going too, otherwise, the Cui family may not be able to call the wind and rain in the Northland like before."

"You all went, do you know what this means?" Xi Xi said in horror.

"Of course I know, but I can't go if I don't go. He holds the opportunity for the big families to rule the roost. At this autumn harvest event, he will know who will win." Cui Yan felt that Lin Mo had ruined the Northern Family Alliance up.

Originally, it was agreed that no one would go to the autumn harvest festival this time, and it would be fine to send a representative to make a point.

But now, not only the Patriarchs of the major families will be present, but he himself is no exception.

Once all the patriarchs gather in Yecheng, outsiders will see that Lu Bu has justified and become the lord of the Northern Kingdom. Even Yuan Xi may be frightened to give up resistance, because his biggest backer, the Lu family, will also have to participate.

Seeing that the deal was done, Xi Ji didn't ask any more questions, instead he said: "Even so, the Cui family is unrivaled in the Northern Kingdom, if Brother Ji Gui speaks, Lu Bu will only ask for it."

Cui Yan smiled and said, "This is natural. I will act carefully."

Excluding Bingzhou, the Cui family is the most powerful among the three families in the three northern states, which probably has a lot to do with Cui Yan.

The Li family escaped from Yingchuan, and the Lu family rose through Lu Zhi, so they are still not as powerful as the Cui family.

Therefore, if the Cui family took the initiative to marry, he believed that Lu Bu would laugh his ass off.

It's just that Cui Yan never understood what such a little girl could do even if she was sent to Lu Bu's side.

He admits that the people brought by Xi Ji can indeed watch, but they are not enough to overwhelm the country and the city. Apart from other things, his daughter is no worse than her.

The only impressive thing is that she is like a puppet, she can't smile and has no expression, but this is not a plus, men are not interested in such women.

Could it be
She is proficient in sex?
Cui Yan thought about it, but felt that it was impossible. It seemed that he was only thirteen or fourteen years old and had just reached the age of marriage, so how could he be proficient.

No matter how powerful it is, it is limited.

But other than that, he couldn't imagine what kind of disturbance such a little girl could cause.

If he had a choice, he would not bet on such a little girl, but when the blood edict of the emperor arrived, coupled with the cakes painted by Cao Cao and the avoidance of various risks, he could only sigh helplessly in the end, " No matter what you want to do, I feel a little dirty, and the Cui family will be ashamed of it."

"Brother Ji Gui, don't worry, after the matter is completed, the emperor will issue an edict that the Cui family will be the pillars to save the country, and the Cui family will become the leading family in the world in one fell swoop, so don't worry." Xi Xi followed Guo Jia's instructions, saying every word Cui Yan's heart went up.

"Forget it, let me think about it carefully, which room has a suitable candidate, and then take her to identify people. There are more than 600 people in the Cui family, but I can't remember any one wrong."

Seeing that Cui Yan had made up his mind, Xi Ji cupped his hands and bowed, "Don't worry, Brother Ji, this girl looks dull, but she is actually very smart and has the ability to remember with a photographic memory. First of all, I would like to thank Brother Ji Gui for saving the country and falling down soon." .”

　The fever hasn't gone down yet, and I'm not sure if I can take any more, and my head is cracked.
