Demon of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 68: Lu Rui returns!

After receiving the news of the Jiangxia League, Lu Rui put the information aside and shook his head. Sun Quan, Liu Biao, Liu Bei, and the Three Dragons gathered and formed a blood alliance. In addition, Wufu Minfeng in Jingzhou, the northern refugees went south, look The trajectory of history has not changed, and Jingzhou is still a variable in the world!

"Subordinates see the general!" As soon as Lu Rui finished reading the information on Jingzhou, Xu Shu came in a hurry.

"Yuanzhi, why are you so flustered?"

"General, this is an imperial edict, and Lord Sikong has a secret letter for the general."

"Oh?" Lu Rui was stunned for a moment, and after receiving the edict and secret letter, Cao Cao actually sent himself a secret letter at this time, it seems that something big happened.

The imperial edict was to confer Lu Rui an official position, to let Lu Rui enter the general conquest of the North, and to return Xu to wait for his use.Lu Rui smiled, but his official position has risen quite quickly. In just two years, he was promoted from General Zhendong to General Zhengbei.This seems to be another masterpiece of Cao Cao.

Cao Cao's secret letter contains only two points.First of all, in order to avenge Guandu, Yuan Shao marched 30 troops into Liyang, preparing to go south again.In order to fight against Yuan Shao, Cao Cao prepared to lead troops to resist.

The second is Liu Biao and Sun Quan. After Liu Bei's alliance, the Wujun area of ​​Moling in Jiangdong may be threatened. Cao Cao decided to let Cao Ren replace Lu Rui to guard Jiangdong and transfer Lu Rui back to Xudu.After all, Lu Rui's experience in leading the army alone is still inexperienced, only experience in civil affairs.

"Yuanzhi, what do you think of Zhongfu's letter and the imperial edict?" Lu Rui handed the letter to Xu Shu.

"General, Lord Sikong's methods are indeed exquisite."

"Oh? Yuanzhi, tell me."

"Master Sikong's move has two intentions. One is to replace the general with General Cao Ren. It is to show the army Lord Sikong's strategy of preventing generals from monopolizing power. If the state and herds guarding various places become the leader of one party for a long time, the tail will not be lost. Today, the world This is the situation for the princes. Second, Lord Sikong wants to use General Cao Ren to suppress the Jiangdong family and Shanyue forces again, so as to consolidate Cao Jun's rule in Jiangdong."

"Well, Yuan Zhi's words are reasonable. In this case, let's pack up and prepare to return to Xudu."

"Yes, my subordinates understand."

Soon, Cao Ren came to Jiangdong with his own soldiers and took over the affairs of Lu Rui's Zhendong General. Lu Rui left Moling with his family and returned to Xudu.Cao Zhi and Cao Zhen also returned to Xudu with Lu Rui, while Cao Zhang stayed in Jiangdong to learn how to lead troops with Cao Ren.

"My son sees Father Zhong!" As soon as Lu Rui returned to Xudu, he went to Sikong Mansion to meet Cao Cao.

"Bufan is back? Bufan get up!"

"Thank you, Father Zhong!"

"Well, Bufan performed well in Jiangdong, Father Zhong is very satisfied. This call back to Bufan is a last resort, Bufan won't blame Father Zhong?" Cao Cao stroked his beard.He looked at Lu Rui with satisfaction.

"Don't dare, my son! Everything will be according to Zhong's father's arrangement." Lu Rui cupped his hands and bowed to Cao Cao. He had never thought about guarding Jiangdong, but Cao Cao insisted on guarding Jiangdong himself. Now he has returned to Xudu. You can also be lazy, how nice!

"Oh?" Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, and withdrew Lu Rui from one of the officials who was innocent and returned to Xudu. He called him a promotion.

"Father Zhong, after my son returns to Xudu, can I take a rest at the mansion?" According to the Dahan's practice, General Zhengbei is to conquer the foreigners in the north. Now that Hebei has not been pacified, he can't go around and fight against the foreigners. Take a rest on Lao Cao's thigh.

"Good boy! You want to be lazy!" Cao Cao suddenly understood that Lu Rui's feelings were still inert and hard to change. He wanted to stay in Xudu and enjoy the blessings, and he didn't want to go outside to suffer. No wonder he was so happy when he came back from Jiangdong.

"Father Zhong, you can't do this. Since the crowning ceremony, my son has basically been running around with the army. Now that Yuan Shao is coming to attack, my son asks to stay in Xudu to supervise the transportation of grain for Father Zhong!"

"Bufan, it seems that you were led by Fengxiao to supervise the transportation of food and fodder? Very good, you will follow the army to supervise the transportation of food and fodder, and you can't stay in Xudu!"

"Father Zhong?"

"Okay, you don't need to say any more, it's settled like this."

"Yes, Father Zhong!" Seeing Cao Cao's resolute appearance, Lu Rui couldn't say anything, so he agreed, and following Lao Cao to fight the world, it really is bitter before sweet!

"Extraordinary?"

"Father Zhong?"

"Are you getting used to Jie'er's life in Moling?"

"Reporting to Father Zhong, Jie'er lived a very comfortable life in Moling, without any discomfort, please rest assured Father Zhong!" Damn, put a big god in my house, can I not take care of it?She is still my future wife!

"Well, Bufan, you are not young anymore. When the crisis in Liyang is over, I will marry you and Jie'er. You must treat my daughter well, or I won't spare you!" Cao Cao suddenly changed the subject, from National affairs talk about children's marriage.

"Yes, Father Zhong, Hai'er will treat Sister Jie'er well."

"Okay, you step back and go to see your aunt, she misses you very much, and my father is also getting old, and he has been feeling unwell recently, you should go and see him too!"

"Yes, Father Zhong!" Lu Rui cupped his hands and stepped back, heading directly to the courtyard of Ding and Cao Song.

In the evening, Cao Cao hosted a banquet in Sikong's mansion to entertain Lu Rui. After drinking and eating, Lu Rui returned to his mansion. The house number has been changed to Zhengbei General's Mansion.

"Bufan, I've been waiting here for a long time as a teacher." As soon as Lu Rui arrived at the gate of the mansion, he saw Guo Jia hanging a wine gourd, waiting for Lu Rui in the front yard.

"master?"

"Bufan came back from Sikong Mansion?"

"Why did master come to my house late at night?"

"Bufan, I heard that you brought back a lot of fine Jiangdong wine from Jiangdong to present to Lord Sikong, did you leave a few jars for the master?"

When Lu Rui heard this, he staggered. It turned out that Guo Jia was thinking about his fine wine.

"Master, please come with Rui. It's ready for the master." Lu Rui was planning to send someone to Guo Jia tomorrow, but he didn't expect Guo Jia to come to his door.

"Good! Good! It really is good wine!" After taking a sip of Jiangdong rice wine, Guo Jia touched his mouth. It was fragrant and sweet, and it really was good wine.

"Bufan, do you know the real intention of the lord to recall you from Jiangdong?"

"Intention? Isn't it to rotate the state shepherd and suppress Jiangdong?" Lu Rui took a sip of rice wine and glanced at Guo Jia. Could there be other things?

"Bufan, do you remember what happened to Zhang Xiu back then?"

"About Zhang Xiu?" Lu Rui thought for a while, Qianlongxing?The person who was lurking beside Liu Xie back then has not been discovered yet!

"Master, do you have a clue to what happened back then?"

"That's right. There are indeed clues to what happened back then. My lord ordered me and Bufan to find out who was behind the scenes that day."

"So that's how it is!" Lu Rui nodded. Cao Cao summoned himself back to find out the expert who was behind Liu Xie that day!one heart! (To be continued..)
