Lu's relatives

Chapter 238
It seems that Guo Tu inherited his unlucky luck. After hearing what Sima Mao said, he looked at the young and outrageous Qin Xu in disbelief.Since Sima dared to say this at the gate of Qingzhou Mu's mansion, there is no need to argue whether it is true or not, and Guo Tu had actually heard that Xuzhou Mu Taoqian handed over Xuzhou to a little-known boy, which caused an uproar in the world , and also uncovered the fig leaf for the private granting and receiving of Dahanzhou County, that is, Liu He, the son of Liu Yu who took shelter of his lord Yuan Shao, was not also immediately recommended by Xian Yufu and others to lead Youzhou after Tao Qianming made the statement Did you shed it?What does it mean to lift a rock and shoot yourself in the foot, that's probably it.

"Shut up! Mr. Guo is a well-known scholar in Jizhou. He must have been rude when he met Yuan Benchu. Besides, Qin was just asked to play on the table by the lord, and he was wrongly loved by Mr. Tao to announce it to the world. That's why he became such a young man. How can the little governor of Xuzhou be worthy of Mr. Guo's great gift?" Qin Xu reprimanded Sima Mao feigning anger, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said to Guo Tu with a smile.

"Yes, General Qin's lesson is right! Mr. Guo is a well-known scholar in Jizhou, and unlike us soldiers, he naturally doesn't have to care about etiquette!" Sima Mao, who was "rebuked" by Qin Xu, said with a smile without being annoyed.Guo Tuzheng felt chest tightness and panic because of Qin Xu's words, but he heard Sima's sarcastic remarks. The bad thing was that he said too much just now, and he was really anxious or angry at the moment.

"Don't embarrass Mr. Guo. It must be that being strict with others and being lenient with self-discipline is what Jizhou is doing. Yuan Benchu ​​doesn't care. Why should we force others to make things difficult? Dead cat, treat Mr. Gongze well, Qin has something important to do I will not accompany you!" Seeing that the person sent by Yuan Shao turned out to be Guo Tu, who was extremely opposed to Ju's policy of welcoming the emperor in history, Qin Xu couldn't understand Yuan Shao's intentions for a while, so he lost his mind to talk to Guo Tu again. , ordered Sima Mao lightly, ignored Guo Tu's angry pale face, and walked straight to the mansion.

"Since General Lu has already returned to the mansion, please ask the sergeant to report to General Lu and General Qin on their behalf, saying that Guo was rude just now, and I hope I can apologize in person!" There is something to be said for this patience when it comes to forming a party and fighting. Seeing that Qin Xu did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, but instead stopped abruptly, treating himself as air, this is even worse than face-to-face insults. Heavily, Guo Tu reluctantly swallowed this breath, forced a smile and said to Sima Mao who was blocking the door of Lu Bu's mansion.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Guo, the lord is not here! Come back tomorrow!" As if what happened just now hadn't happened, Sima Mao changed into his previous "face" again, talking nonsense to Guo Tu with his eyes open. Said.

"You...huh!" Obviously, he just disappeared.Guo Tu pointed at Sima Mao with trembling arms, he was so angry that he couldn't speak, and was stared at by Sima Mao, he quickly retracted, and he flicked his robe sleeves rather harshly, snorted angrily, and flashed a few words in his eyes. With a very sinister look, he looked at the closed gate of Lu Bu's mansion with hatred, and under the contemptuous eyes of all the soldiers trapped in the camp, he turned and left without saying a word.

Qin Xu lived in Lu Bu's mansion before, and the maid in the mansion is also very familiar with Qin Xu. Many people know that Qin Xu was from the head of Lu Bu's mansion before. Strictly speaking, it is the same as their starting point. But now Qin Xu has become Lv Bu's son-in-law by chance, and with Lv Bu's help, he has become General Fenwu and Governor of Xuzhou who is nominally only one rank lower than Lv Bu. This is a very good opportunity for them Incentive, and Qin Xu has been in the mall for a long time in his previous life, and the concept of equality for everyone has been deeply rooted in his bones. He has always been unassuming, and these people are his former "colleagues". One of the awakenings, not forgetting to say hello to familiar generals, made these people look at Qin Xu with awe and kindness.

Without the guidance of others, Qin Xu walked through the hall and walked directly to the back hall. At this time, Lu Bu should probably be in the martial arts training ground in the backyard.Speaking of which, although Qin Xu knew from the letter and the hints from Cai Yan passed down by Lu Lingqi that Lu Bu did not have doubts about him because of Tao Qian's calculations at the end of his life, and even pushed himself to the current high position smoothly. , but at this moment I will see Lu Bu soon, and I feel a little nervous.

Just as Qin Xu expected, Lu Bu was blocked by Yuan Shao's envoy Guo Tu, but he couldn't act happily due to the current situation in Qingzhou and Yuan Shao's influence, so he would definitely feel aggrieved.When Qin Xu came to the martial arts training ground, Lu Bu was indeed dancing Fang Tian's painted halberd here to unleash his strength, but this time the difference was that there were no generals to serve him, but Yan Shi and Qiao Xiaoqian who closed their eyes and slightly closed their eyes. Diao Chan, who was looking at Lu Bu, and the three wives of the Cao family who stared at Lu Bu acted as spectators. Seeing Qin Xu coming alone, even Lu Bu stopped his posture, and all eyes immediately turned to this time outside. Someone from Qin who caused some big troubles.

"I'm back? It's good to be back!" Lu Bu's face was calm, and his tone was the same as before, but Qin Xu didn't know if it was an illusion, or if Lu Bu was tired from practicing for a long time, it seemed that Lu Bu was relieved after seeing him. few.

"Qin Xu met the lord, and cough cough, the three mother-in-laws!" Not only was Lu Bu heaving a sigh of relief when Qin Xu arrived, but the Yan family also looked at Qin Xu with inexplicable meaning in their eyes, surprised and blamed. , The colors of peace of mind vary.This made Qin Xu feel like he was going to be tried three times, and said in a rather awkward salute.This ceremony is not in vain. Hearing Qin Xu's name, Yan's face showed some satisfaction. Diao Chan also showed her peerless beauty and nodded at Qin Xu with a smile. The only one who is younger than Qin Xu Mrs. Cao, however, blushed with embarrassment and lowered her head, not daring to look up at others.

"Well, you know everything, right?" Lu Bu didn't bother about other things. When Qin Xu saw the ceremony, he put Fang Tian's painted halberd aside, picked up the sweat towel that Diao Chan handed over, and wiped it carelessly. With one hand, he asked directly.

"My lord, I didn't see Guo Tu, the envoy of the Yuan family, but you made up your mind?" Jia Xu told Lv Bu about this matter after learning about it. Qin Xu nodded and asked Lv Bu.

"I know very well that Yuan Benchu ​​is not a big-hearted person. Besides, before we plundered his food reserves, captured his advisers, and degraded his elite, we would definitely not give up on anyone. If he hadn't been fighting with Youzhou Gongsun Zan at that time, he was in full swing. For fear of being attacked on both sides, it is estimated that Qingzhou will be attacked long ago." Lu Bu walked away casually, and said to Qin Xu: "Ziyuan and Fengxiao have persuaded me more than once. It's just that I want to use the military power of a certain person to help him accomplish things for a while, but I will definitely settle the previous matter afterwards. How can I not know that I have misguided intentions? It's just..., it's just that a certain person didn't want the position of Hussar General promised by his Yuan family. When leaving Chang'an, a certain person had made an oath to the emperor because of his shame. He had no choice but to run away, and one day he would rescue the emperor from the robbers! Now that Chang'an is in chaos, Ma Teng, Han Sui, Li Jue and Guo Si are in full swing, and Cao Mengde in Yanzhou However, with more than [-] troops, they are no match for the four thieves who have more than [-] troops, let alone rescue the emperor."

"Yuan Shao is really willing to pay for it! How can he be so 'sincere'? This is forcing the lord to make a choice! But if you help Yuan, you will offend Cao Cao, who has been planning this matter for a long time, at least one of you is plotting against Qin Muchu The lord of the alliance’s reputation must have made a decision for Yuan Shao, and when the time comes, there will be an immortal Cao Cao between Qingzhou, Chang’an and Luoyang, so if Qingzhou can do anything, it will be hindered by Yanzhou, so it’s not worth it!” Qin Xu He understood Lu Bu's words.Don't worry about rescuing the emperor, what Lu Bu is worried about is that Cao Cao has too few troops, not to mention that he can't make achievements, and it is easy to mix the water. Compared with Cao Cao who tore up the covenant and attacked Qingzhou several times, he is four generations Yuan Shao, the Patriarch of the Yuan Family of the Sangong, seems to have a higher success rate, and no one can say anything about the future, even if he knows that Yuan Shao will inevitably settle the score, he can't easily refuse.Moreover, the price offered by Yuan Shao is really undeniable to Lv Bu. The position of Hussar General is not a special one, but he is the head of all the generals. He is in charge of conquest, which is equivalent to the imperial court confirming that Lv Bu is the number one fierce general in the world. Not to mention the name, it also represents the recognition attitude of the old Yuan family, the top family of the Han Dynasty, towards the Qingzhou and Xuzhou that Lv Bu now has, and these are exactly what Lv Bu wants but cannot be given by others.No wonder Lu Bu was hesitant. Even if he was persuaded by Guo Jia, Zang Hong and others to turn away the envoy from the Yuan family who was waiting for a reply, he really wanted to give it a try. He asked Qin Xu to come back to see if he could do it. Discuss a way to solve this matter. After all, if Yuan Shao becomes angry because he rejected Yuan Shao, with the current state of Qingzhou, he has not yet made the necessary preparations to turn his face against Yuan. It made Qingzhou, which was already undercurrent, even worse.

"But Yuan Shao also borders Qingzhou. Although it can be blocked for a while across the river, it is not a natural barrier after all. If we turn against him, it will definitely damage Qingzhou." Although Guo Jia and Zang Hong said the same thing before. meaning, but no one dared to explain it to Lu Bu so thoroughly. Lu Bu nodded at Qin Xu's words, and did not say his own choice, but said questioningly.

"My lord, I got it wrong. What is Yuan Shaotu's plan? Before, he wanted to order the emperor to be established, and he urgently needed the emperor to rectify his name. His counselor, Ju Shou, even said, 'Take the emperor to order the princes'." In other words, Yuan Shao just promised the lord to be the great general of the hussars, and if he wanted to do the king's business, how could he allow the lord to be the head of the generals? Besides, if there is no such thing, then Yuan Shao freed his hand, Who will be the first to deal with it?" Qin Xu said with a smile: "Instead of being liquidated when he gains power, it is better to continue to support Cao Cao in Yanzhou to achieve this matter, and at the same time spread the words of Yuan Shao's counselor. It will make the lord gain the reputation of not fearing power and only respecting promises, and it will also make the emperor think of Qingzhou's goodness after he is out of the hands of thieves. So don't worry, lord, Yuan Shao should be the most anxious now. As for how to deal with this envoy of Yuan Shao Guo Tu, there will naturally be people who are more anxious than us."

"You mean... Cao Cao?"
