Three Kingdoms: The opening incorporates Li Cunxiao

Chapter 496: It’s hard to be a groom
In the prefect's mansion, Sun Shangxiang pestered Zhang Wu Niyi for a while and felt a little tired.

After the maid in the mansion tidied up the side room, she led Jiuyue to rest first.

As soon as Sun Shangxiang left, only two grown men, Zhang Wu and Lu Meng, were left in the main hall of the huge prefect's mansion.

at this time,

Lu Meng really felt like crying.

Standing in the hall, it doesn't matter if he moves or doesn't move.

Like a little daughter-in-law who has suffered a lot.

Every time he wanted to raise his eyes to look at Zhang Wu, he would see Zhang Wu's thoughtful eyes staring straight at him.

The air in the hall was so quiet that it was breathless.

After a long silence, Lu Meng finally couldn't stand it any longer and took the lead to break the embarrassment: "General, if you have nothing else to do, I will leave first."

Zhang Wu chuckled: "Where are you retreating to?"

"Please also ask the general to order his subordinates to randomly place a side room in the prefect's mansion so that Meng Rong can stay."

"No, the people housed in the prefect's mansion are all female relatives. Didn't you see that General Hengjiang Gan Ning moved out wisely?"

Lu Meng thought about it and it was the same thing. It was really unseemly for a big man like him to be shameless here.

But the problem is that Jiuyue took away all the money from him before he came out. He wanted to sleep in an inn outside, but his financial strength did not allow it!

"Well, I'm so broke that I shamelessly borrowed ten sons from the general and went out to stay in an inn."

Zhang Wu spread his hands: "Ziming, this is going to be difficult for me. Do you think I need to bring money when I go out? That five baht is quite heavy."

Lu Meng was speechless.

When you reach the status of the other party, as long as you travel in the Northland, wherever you go, the top local chief executive will personally entertain you and make proper arrangements.
In fact, this was because Lu Meng was overthinking. Although Zhang Wu did not carry five baht coins, he always brought a handful of gold leaves with him wherever he went.

The reason why he didn't want to give it to him was entirely because Zhang Wuzheng was silently making small calculations.

"If Zi Ming doesn't give up, Chi Ji's stable will be quite spacious."

"Ah~ that's all it can do." Lu Meng didn't think Zhang Wu was deliberately humiliating him.

On the contrary, he was a little afraid of the red horse from the bottom of his heart.

I never thought that after calling Jiu Yue, he would become a groom.

I just don’t know if I can be like Gan Ning and be a general.

There is no doubt that the current Lu Meng is nothing. If left in the Yunhui camp, he could at best be a riding officer. Left under Sun Ce, he was just a dispensable little transparent person.

Chi Ji followed Zhang Wu in his expeditions to the east and west and was famous for his fame. He was considered a high achiever by sleeping with this horse.

Zhang Wu was the Commander-in-Chief of the Jinghuai Navy whom Cao Cao personally worshiped.

No matter what Cao Cao planned, since he killed the naval commander, Zhang Wu had to do it well even for his own fame.

It is foreseeable that he is likely to become the commander-in-chief of the Governor-General's navy during the southern expedition in the future.

However, Cao Wei still had too few generals who were proficient in water warfare.

For now, there are only Gan Ning in Huainan and Tai Shici in Xuzhou.

Huang Zu of Jiangxia actually counts as one, but he is not on the list of Cao Cao's cronies. Moreover, Jingzhou Huang's influence in Jiangxia is so intertwined that he is no different from the Tu emperor.

So it's only a matter of time before someone replaces him.

And this Lu Meng, after careful polishing, is not a capable general.

But before that, Zhang Wu had to test his attitude.

If you are a die-hard loyalist to the Jiangdong Sun family, forget it. Zhang Wuke had no interest in cultivating opponents for himself.

After Lu Meng retreated, Zhang Wu put away the smile on his face and lightly knocked on the table.

Lu Meng is a piece of jade.

In the novel, he debuts with bravery. Later, when someone gave him some advice, he switched to reading military books, and he became famous as a wise general.

There is no doubt that the two opportunities for Lü Meng's first skill in the novel were given to force and resourcefulness respectively.

But Zhang Wu had a different view.

In his opinion, Lu Meng's intensive study of martial arts was actually a waste.

Three years old look old.

At this age, the data speaks volumes.

First of all, this guy is not a natural martial artist. As long as he has natural divine power, he won't have a force value of 79 now.

It is most demanding to reach the top in martial arts.

Talent, understanding, and physical fitness are all indispensable.

Even if he wastes this opportunity, he will never have the possibility of becoming unparalleled.

In Zhang Wu's vision, the model that Lu Meng should really strive for should be like Zhou Yu, who could become a commander-in-chief and a commander-in-chief.

Of course, all this must be done under the premise that Shi Lumeng is aware of it, otherwise Zhang Wu wouldn't mind having that kid by his side all day long.

the other side,
Lu Meng left the main hall and entered Chi Ji's stable under the leadership of the soldiers.

For a moment, he even thought he was in the wrong place. He secretly thought that what Zhang Wu said was indeed true, it was really spacious!
The stables are large and clean, with signs of renovation inside and out. The dormitories on the side are also distributed in an orderly manner.

After the grass on the side is dried, it is divided into categories and arranged.

The water was replaced immediately. If Chi Ji had not drank a stick of incense in a tank of water, the groom would replace it again.

There were as many as forty servants just combing and bathing Chi Ji.

Whenever there is a little bit of dust on it while playing in the stable, someone will come to clean it up.

The most outrageous thing is that this horse is so fierce that it is not even tied by a rope and is completely free.
At that moment, Lu Meng admitted that he was a little sore.

That's not a horse, it's clearly treated like an emperor!
When Chi Ji saw the newcomer coming in, he walked forward, looked at Lu Meng, shook his head and snorted, then lost interest and continued to go back to the manger to eat grass.

From time to time, he and the groom next to him would play around and get very close.

"New here? Don't be so nervous. Don't you know the general's Chiji? It won't hurt you casually. But it seems like it doesn't like you very much."

"Uh"

The strong man held a stick of grass in his mouth, stepped forward and patted Lu Meng on the shoulder: "My name is Xu Yan, the general's horse officer. I was originally a flying bear rider. I lost an arm during the Battle of Puyang. The general took pity on him and came here to ask for it." This is a job. Which battalion does brother belong to?"

After Lu Meng took a look, he realized that the servants and grooms who he thought were feeding the horses were not ordinary servants. Each of them had a faint evil aura about them. Either there were disabilities or injuries on his body, or his lungs and stomach were injured, and he kept coughing.

No wonder Chi Ji is close to them. It turns out that these are old brothers who can no longer follow Zhang Wu in the war.

For Chi Ji, they are also brothers and sisters.

It's really a magical horse that understands human nature.

Lü Meng came back to his senses, clasped his fists and said, "I'm Lü Meng, not the general's old corps. I'm just staying here temporarily."

"Oh? This is strange. Not the general's old staff can live in Chiji's stable. You are the first one. Mine is also a single room, so you can make do with me."
