When Ji Han and his men traveled to the Three Kingdoms crew

Chapter 284: Shocking and enlightening
"What happened?!"

The news that Cao Cao, Cao Ren and Chen Gong did not sleep in the evening and went into the kitchen instead spread throughout the Lu family through the servants, instantly alarming everyone. The eldest son of the Lu family did not even have time to put on his outer clothes. He kicked off his shoes and dragged his second brother straight to the kitchen. The first thing he did when he saw Cao Cao was to bow his head and apologize. He never looked at his third and fourth brothers who were tied up tightly.

He said sincerely, "Dear sir, it is our fault. We made too much noise and disturbed you. I hope you can forgive us!"

"Brother Lu, what did you do wrong?" Cao Cao grabbed the arm of the eldest son of the Lu family, and his eyes turned to Cao Ren intentionally or unintentionally. "Brother Lu, it is our fault. We heard the sound of knife sharpening and mistakenly thought that Brother Lu wanted to harm us, but we didn't expect that the thief's heart was guessing the gentleman's measure. Brother Lu did not rebuke us, but apologized to us. I really don't deserve it, I don't deserve it!"

Cao Ren, who had been with Cao Cao for a long time, naturally understood Cao Cao's intentions. When did Cao Cao suspect the Lu family? It was clearly him who was suspicious and almost killed a good man by mistake!

Thinking of this, Cao Ren felt ashamed. He stood up and said, "Brother Lu, this is none of your fault. It is my fault. I misunderstood a good man. If you want to punish me, then punish me!"

Cao Cao listened and nodded secretly.

The eldest son of the Lu family stared at Cao Ren. Cao Ren was stared at for ten seconds. During these ten seconds, he felt extremely tormented and even his breathing sounded quite irritable.

"puff"

Uncontrollable laughter broke out, and the eldest son of the Lu family burst into laughter. This sudden change made Cao Ren at a loss.

"Hahaha"

The eldest son of the Lu family laughed so hard that tears were about to fall out. He patted Cao Ren on the shoulder and comforted him.
"Brother Zixiao, don't worry too much, and don't think too much."

"We followed our father's orders and wanted to entertain the distinguished guest, but it was getting late and we didn't have time to entertain him. We only prepared simple tea and light meals. We wanted the distinguished guest to fill his stomach, but we didn't expect that he was exhausted from the journey and fell into a deep sleep."

"So I sent people to kill sheep and chickens at night, just so that the distinguished guest could enjoy the delicacies when he woke up!"

"When you are away from home, horses are extremely important. My two brothers saw that the horses of the distinguished guests were hungry, so they chose to feed the horses with high-quality grass mixed with eggs. It's just that they were very cautious and caused misunderstandings, which is normal."

These words made Cao Ren even more ashamed, and he wanted to dig a hole in the ground and crawl into it.

Chen Gong, who had seen all this, gently twisted his beard and nodded, saying "good."

If Cao Ren only saw the surface, he actually saw something deeper. Cao Mengde's intention was to use this to polish Cao Ren's temper.

"Snapped"

Cao Cao slapped Cao Ren on the back

"Why does a man act like a woman?"

"Brother Lu, have you forgiven us?"

"You and I just need to keep this in mind and not make the same mistake again in the future!"

The eldest son of the Lu family echoed: "Brother Meng De is absolutely right."

"No, brother, Brother Lu, that's not what I care about." Cao Ren shook his head. He looked at the eldest son of the Lu family. "I'm curious about why Brother Lu is laughing?"

The eldest son of the Lu family was slightly stunned.

Cao Cao immediately took over the conversation, "Zixiao, your serious expression is really funny!"

"Not bad, not bad." Even Chen Gong came to join in.

The two men sang in unison. Cao Ren was the first to laugh, followed by the eldest son of the Lu family and even the servants, who all laughed uncontrollably.

The third and fourth sons woke up slowly. They gasped and the pain in their necks made them grimace. When they opened their eyes and saw everyone laughing, they were filled with confusion.

Why are you laughing?

Could you please untie the ropes for us first?
After this misunderstanding, the three men completely let down their guard and suspicion towards the Lu family. They returned to their respective rooms, lay on the bed, covered themselves with bedding, and slept soundly until the roosters crowed their throats, and they slowly woke up.

Cao Cao, Cao Ren and Chen Gong walked out of the house one after another and came to the guest house. They found Lü Bushe sitting opposite a man. The man was dressed simply and there was nothing commendable about him. After asking around, they found out that he was the doctor invited by Lü Bushe.

The doctor wiped the sweat from his forehead and said:

"Lü Gong, I have diagnosed all the injuries one by one."

"These are the written prescriptions." "Thank you so much."

After sending the doctor away, Lü Bushe smiled at the three people and said, "My three nephews, are you awake? Let's have dinner then."

This banquet was a great success with both the guests and the hosts having a great time. There was laughter all around and a joyful atmosphere everywhere.

During the banquet, Lü Bushe casually mentioned: "Meng De often mentions a good friend, but I wonder who this good friend is?"

Cao Cao was slightly tipsy from drinking. He patted his chest and said, "Of course it's Xixiang Hou Liu Bei Liu Xuande!"

"Liu Xuande?"

The whole audience was in an uproar, which made Chen Gong smell something was wrong. He hurriedly asked, "Could it be that Uncle Lu knows the whereabouts of Marquis Xixiang?"

Lu Boshe nodded
Seeing this, Cao Cao's drunkenness disappeared, he and Chen Gong looked at each other, and they both saw surprise in each other's eyes.

Cao Ren was more direct. He held the wine pot and added wine to Lü Bushe's cup.

"Uncle Lu, can you tell me about it?"

"Why not?" Lü Bushe laughed. "Some time ago, Xixiang Hou encountered Xu Rong. He just waved his hand and Xu Rong's army of 100,000 men collapsed without a fight. This is the highest realm of military strategy: defeating the enemy without fighting!"

Cao Ren was so frightened that he almost lost his grip on the wine jug. He looked at Lü Bushe with suspicion. No, Uncle Lü, where in the world can there be such a powerful person? Even if the ancestor of military power were resurrected, he couldn't do it, right? ! Were you deceived?

Cao Cao shouted loudly: "As expected of Brother Xuande!"

Chen Gong was skeptical.

However, it was not only Lü Bushe who said this. All five of Lü Bushe's sons said so, and they spoke very seriously and convincingly. Some even said that they had seen it with their own eyes and even described Liu Bei's appearance very accurately.

It would be fine if only one person said this, but a group of people said this.

Besides, what reason did Lü Bushe have to deceive him?
Soon Cao Ren believed it 80%.

Chen Gongsi said: The audience does not seem to be lying, so it seems true that Marquis Xixiang defeated the enemy without fighting. However, this matter is not as simple as it seems. I think even Marquis Xixiang would find it difficult to replicate this.

After figuring out the reason, Chen Gong asked, "Excuse me, Uncle Lu, do you know where Xixiang Hou is going?"

This question instantly aroused Cao Cao's curiosity. He looked at Lü Bushe with anticipation in his eyes.

Under the expectant gaze, Lu Bushe nodded slowly.

This made Cao Cao and Chen Gong overjoyed. If there were no elders in front of them, they would probably have applauded.

Lü Bushe informed Cao Cao and Chen Gong of Liu Bei's general whereabouts, and spent his family fortune to raise an infantry of 100 men for Cao Cao.

He even personally escorted Cao Cao, Chen Gong and Cao Ren to the official road.

Looking back at Lü Bushe who was gradually disappearing from his sight, Cao Cao finally withdrew his gaze. After this incident, he finally understood Liu Bei's mood at the time. He wanted to write a poem to express his good mood.

Cao Ren sighed, "Brother, I misunderstood you. During the trip to Luoyang, you made me realize how painful it is to be suspicious. I cannot match your kindness."

"Wrong." Unexpectedly, Cao Cao shook his head and said, "This is not the truth I figured out. I am just repeating what others have said. This is the truth that Brother Xuande taught me."

Chen Gong became interested. "Oh? What's the reason?"

Cao Cao laughed out loud and said, "I would rather let the world betray me than let myself betray the world!"

These words awakened Cao Ren and Chen Gong, and they could not calm down for a long time.

Cao Cao didn't care at all about the expressions of the two men.

He was full of enthusiasm, Brother Xuande, here I come!

Galloping along the road for an unknown amount of time, Cao Cao looked up into the distance, his heart filled with joy.

看啊
The flag flying in front is Brother Xuande’s!
