Lu's relatives

Chapter 54 Yuan Shao's "Gift"

The disappearance of Captain Zhang Nan of Xiandengying made Qin Xu a little worried about Yuan Shaojun's next move.

Judging from Fengji's arrangement, Yuan Shao already knew that Lu Bujun was involved in the chaos in Yecheng.

That is to say, now Yuan Shaozheng Gongsun Zan has lost, and the loss of Yecheng has hurt some of his vitality. He has no strength and confidence to deal with Lu Bu for the time being.Yecheng is the economic and political center of the entire Hebei. If Yuan Shao recovers, things will be difficult.

"You're too careful, little boy Yuan Shao. If you don't come to Hanoi, it's fine. If you dare to come, I, Lu Bu, will let him come and go." Lu Bu sneered at Qin Xu's worries, and said impatiently: "Our army is bothering Uncle Zhi For a long time, I was worried that I had nowhere to go, and I think Jizhou is pretty good."

With this temper, it's no wonder that he was so powerful in history, yet he was chased around by people.

Qin Xu's worries, but Lu Bu didn't care too much. The siege of more than two hundred dead men who first boarded the camp, and Yuan Shaojun's secret weapon, the first to board the crossbow, didn't make the flying general scratch a bit of oily skin. Lu Bu has the capital of arrogance. .

"Father, when Yuan Shao comes, I'll accompany you to resist the enemy, okay? I haven't caught up with you for several times!" Qin Xu was having a headache, but Lu Lingqi came to add to the chaos.

"Miss, my sister-in-law, can you stop making trouble?" Qin Xu smiled wryly. Since Lu Bu vaguely expressed his intentions, Qin Xu and Lu Lingqi have also spoken more casually.

"Who made the mess? The matter of Yecheng didn't go through! This time I rushed and rushed and didn't go through! It's almost suffocating! It's all your fault!" Lu Lingqi curled her mouth, gave Qin Xu a blank look, and said dissatisfied .

"I..." The temperaments of the father and daughter were almost carved out of the same mold. They were both violent elements who advocated force, which made Qin Xu dumbfounded.

"Okay, Ling'er, don't be as knowledgeable as this kid, be good!" Lu Bu finally understood Qin Xu's painstaking efforts, comforted his daughter a few words, and asked Qin Xu: "It was you who persuaded me to join Hanoi at the beginning, and you just stayed here. After a few months, so many things have been caused, how do you want to make a fuss?"

Lu Bu's words can choke people to death, who is torturing whom?Qin Xu slandered in his heart, but in order not to make fun of his life, he saw that Lv Bu had the idea of ​​annexing Jizhou, and said to Lv Bu with a wry smile: "The Yuan family is four generations and three princes, and their disciples and old officials are all over the world. You can't compete with them for a while; Yuan Shao Although Jizhou was captured not long ago, the rich families in the prefecture have attached themselves to them, and their overall strength is extremely strong; in the matter of Yecheng, although our army has benefited a lot, it is still difficult to move Yuan Shao's muscles, my lord must not take it lightly."

"It's better to go back to Bingzhou! Since I left, I haven't been back for a long time. Bingzhou produces good horses and is the hometown of our army. Yuan Shao dare not come here." Lu Bu stroked Lu Ling's long, millet-colored hair, and there was a trace of tenderness in his eyes. , said: "When Ling'er followed me out of Bingzhou, she was not yet sensible, and she became so old in a blink of an eye."

Seeing that Lu Bu was turning into a loving father again, Qin Xu hurriedly said with black lines on his face: "My lord, Yuan Shao has coveted Bingzhou for a long time, and has been infiltrating it for many years. Moreover, Bingzhou is exhausted, surrounded by enemies, and has been ravaged by Black Mountain for a long time. It is definitely not a place to use it. And Ding Jianyang..."

"Don't talk about it!" Lu Bu heard Ding Yuan's name, his face darkened, he sighed, and said, "Don't mention this matter in the future, what does that old fox beside you think?"

Seeing Lu Bu's not-too-distant tone, Qin Xu wisely didn't ask further questions, and heard Lu Bu mention Jia Xu. It seems that although Lu Bu didn't care about Chang'an's loss, he was still a little bit unconvinced in his heart.Qin Xu smiled wryly: "I originally advised Mr. Wenhe to serve in our army, but..."

"Okay, okay, being by your side is no different from being an official in our army, and I have saved a lot of salary!" Lu Bu curled his lips, stopped Qin Xu's explanation, and said, "I want to see if I can make Lu Bu suffer. My guy, what's the trick. Tell me quickly."

Lu Lingqi didn't know anything about Qin Xu and Jia Xu, so she looked at Qin Xu curiously.

Qin Xu smiled wryly. Jia Xu mentioned a bold strategy, but the strategy was risky and the success rate was low. Even he, the number one poisonous man in the late Han Dynasty, said that he was not fully sure of success, let alone Lu Bu now. There was another quarrel with Yuan Shao.But now that Lu Bu asked, Qin Xu had no choice but to say: "Mr. Jia's strategy is to persuade the Lord to send troops to Hanoi, order the general to attack the two thieves in a flash, and pretend to attack Chang'an. Shu land, waiting for the right time."

"Huh?" After listening to Qin Xu's report of Jia Xu's strategy, Lu Bu's eyes showed a gleam, he kept smacking his lips, and said, "You are indeed an old fox who can make me, Lu Bu, suffer a lot. Rumor has it that the land of Shu has the spirit of the emperor. In the old days when Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty was granted the title of King of Hanzhong, he took possession of the land of Shu to see the world, Jia Xu is persuading me to rebel!"

"My lord!?" Seeing Lu Bu's eagerness, Qin Xu hurriedly said, "Mr. Wenhe's plan is extremely dangerous. Zhang Lu in Hanzhong ruled the people with education. His army has a strong morale, and he occupies the mountains and rivers. Our army has no imperial court." It is clear that it will be conquered, and it will be difficult to conquer it in three or five years; and the land of Shu is mountainous, and the entrances and exits are all via plank roads, and several important passes are built on the mountains, which are easy to defend and difficult to attack! Moreover, although there is little war here, The people are rich and rich, and it is called the land of abundance, but there are many barbarians around, and the customs and human conditions are very different in the Central Plains. If our army does not have a detailed map and the right time, and only our army of more than [-] people brazenly invades, it will not be a matter of years. The number is really unpredictable! My lord, don't forget, whether it is a surprise attack on Chang'an or an attack on Hanzhong, our army's rear will be exposed, and the two thieves, Yuan Shao and Li Si, will not sit idly by!"

"Since this is the case, we have to figure it out slowly." Lu Bu was very interested when he heard Jia Xu's strategy. After hearing Qin Xu's analysis, although he was quite disappointed, he still recorded Qin Xu's words in the heart.

"Report! My lord, Prefect Zhang of Hanoi has a letter and package delivered!"

Just as Qin Xu and Lu Bu were discussing the feasibility of Jia Xu's plan, Song Xian suddenly said outside the account.

"Come in!" Lu Bu motioned for Qin Xu to run all night, and at this moment Lu Lingqi, who was drowsy, helped him to rest on the marching bed, and called Song Xian to come in.

Qin Xu didn't think much about it. Seeing that Lu Lingqi was so sleepy, he couldn't bear it, so he took Lu Lingqi from Lu Bu's arms without saying anything.

"No!" Hearing Lu Bu's call, Song Xian quickly lifted the curtain and entered the tent. The first time he saw Qin Xu carrying Lu Lingqi up and putting him on the camp bed, the corners of his eyes couldn't help twitching, and he secretly exclaimed luck.Who dares to hold the precious daughter of the old Lu family in front of the flying general, what is there to be unconvinced?Take it easy!

Fortunately, after what happened last night, Song Xian became calmer and more cautious. He pretended not to see Qin Xu's actions, and respectfully handed over the fire seal and package to Lu Bu, and stood aside with his hands down, not looking sideways. .

"Huh? What is Yuan Benchu ​​trying to do?" After checking that the wax was correct, Lu Bu glanced roughly, opened the package again, saw the contents, and said in surprise, "Qin Xu, come and see this!"

Just now when Lu Lingqi was covered with a thin blanket, Qin Xu was staring at the dark red blood on the sleeve of Song Xian who was standing upright, thinking that this elder brother would not be so afraid that Lu Bu would torture Wei Xu, so he would do it so soon?I saw Lu Bu hand over Zhang Yang's letter.

Qin Xu didn't notice Song Xian's "really so" look in his eyes, he casually took the letter, read it and then looked at the things in Lu Bu's hands, the surprise in his eyes was no less than that of Lu Bu.

How could this be?
The secret letter in Qin Xu's hand was transferred by Zhang Yang on behalf of Zhang Yang. The newly released chariot general, Jizhou Shepherd Yuan Shao, played Lu Bu's letter of appointment as Zuo General and Qingzhou Shepherd, as well as the appointment edict stamped with a bright red jade seal. Inside the package was a gold seal measuring three inches long and two and a half inches wide!
What's the situation?Lu Bu had a strange look on his face.

Lao Yuan is too unreasonable to play his cards, right?

He had just robbed his city of Ye, causing Yuan Shang and two guards of Ye city to be taken away by Heishan thieves. Last night, he killed more than 200 first-time dead men. It is estimated that Xu Youfengji who stayed in Huaicheng has also died. Zhang Liao Chenglian and other generals who were left behind were caught, and when they were thinking about how to deal with Yuan Shao's crazy revenge, Zhang Yang sent this!It's so unreasonable!

Lu Bu was originally called General Fenwu by Wang Yun for his meritorious service against Dong.Although the title of this general is extremely high, it is not the title of the permanent generals of the Great Han Dynasty. Although he holds part of the military power, it is only an official added during wartime. It is similar to the commander-in-chief army and can be withdrawn at any time.It was also a means for Wang Yun to restrain Lu Bu at that time.

But General Zuo is different. He is the title of a senior general of the Han Dynasty with a gold seal and purple ribbon. He is second only to Shangqing.In other words, with this title of general and the edict of appointment from the imperial court, Lu Bu officially became one of the princes at the end of the Han Dynasty, instead of just talking casually.

After checking the authenticity, Lu Bu's face was full of disbelief. Since Lu Bu abandoned Chang'an, let alone a new official, whether the originally conferred position of General Fenwu can still get the imperial court controlled by the two thieves Li Jue and Guo Si Recognition is not certain.But it is obvious that the jade seal and gold seal on the appointment edict are real.

Is Yuan Shao crazy?Or do you have another conspiracy?However, Qin Xu was the first to wake up from this unimaginable incident, and asked Song Xian, "General Song, do you have anything to say about these things sent by Taishou Zhang? For example, where did these things come from? How did you find them here?"

"Master Qin really knows everything!" Song Xian first praised Qin Xu, then bowed to Lu Bu and said, "My lord, the entourage sent by Taishou Zhang was sent with the sergeants who stayed behind in Hanoi with our army. A gift from a distinguished guest to the lord."

"As expected!" Qin Xu and Lu Bu looked at each other and smiled.With Yuan Shao's soft-spoken character, it is indeed possible to make second-hand preparations.Without even thinking about it, Qin Xu knew Yuan Shao's plan.In the beginning, Yuan Shao may have wanted to subdue Lv Bu for his own use. The high-ranking officials and rich luxuries wooed Lv Bu, and even at the worst, he could rescue Yuan Shang from the black mountain bandits; When he learned the truth about his precious son Yuan Shang and the two guards of Yecheng being kidnapped by Heishan bandits, he wished to kill Lu Bu alive, so how could he give Lu Bu the slightest benefit.Most of these edicts and gold seals were found by Zhang Liao Chenglian when he suddenly arrested Feng Ji and Xu You.

"How should Bu deal with the good intentions at the beginning?" Lu Bu asked without raising his head, fond of the gold seal.

"Yuan Shao is probably going to lose his official position and land this time!" Qin Xu said with a smile, "Since Yuan Shao gave the lord a huge Qingzhou for nothing, why doesn't the lord take it?"
