Chapter 196: Giving and Gaining (Part 2)


was a little surprised by the reunion with Li Ru, and when he saw Li Ru for the first time, Lu Bu almost couldn't believe his eyes.

Even if he doesn't know much about the past six months or so in Chang'an, when Li Ru appeared in Chang'an City in such a grand manner, Lu Bu was almost shocked to drop his jaw, and after he returned to Chang'an, he also went to Li Ru's grave to pay respects.

No matter how dirty the past was, but Dong Zhuo is dead, after such a long time, Lu Bu still has some admiration in his heart for this former colleague, but the person who should have died appeared alive in front of him, which made Lu Bu a little difficult to accept for a while.

But what happened next, Lu Bu didn't report Li Ru, and Li Ru also invited Lu Bu to his home as a guest like an old friend.

A lot of grievances, with the departure of Dong Zhuo, the changes in the court situation and the passage of time have faded, the two people who should have been incompatible at the beginning, but after half a year, they were able to sit down and drink and chat calmly like old friends, the world has changed wonderfully, even now, Lu Bu feels a little incredible when he thinks about it.

Li Ru is obviously dead, but he is still alive, the meaning of which Lu Bu vaguely feels that it is not simple, but he doesn't think about it deeply, this kind of political thing has always been Lu Bu's biggest headache.

Maybe the two of them were too lonely, that day, Lu Bu was invited to Li Confucianism, and the two said a lot, what the specific content was, and now they have almost forgotten it, and there are only two words to remember, and they are willing It's people who want to have the best of both worlds, to take everything into their own hands, but in the end, maybe nothing is caught.

Dong Zhuo was originally promising, but he was too greedy, between beauty and the loyalty of his subordinates, he wanted to catch them all, but in the end he was killed by his subordinates, and Meise, his subordinates, and his own lives were lost.

Li Dao and Guo Yan wanted to learn from Dong Zhuo to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, but they couldn't see themselves clearly, hoping to get the support of the family, and in the end they were all dead.

In this life, it is impossible for everything to go well, if you want to get something, you must give up some, as for how to choose, it looks very simple, in fact, the vast majority of people, it is difficult to make a real choice in a lifetime.

These words gave Lu Bu a deep understanding, and he couldn't help but think of himself in his dream, how could he not be like Li Dao and Guo Yan who wanted to get the support of the family, but they were unwilling to let go of their arrogance, and the final result seemed to be no different from Li Dao and Guo Yan, and the family was ruined.

And now Sometimes when you get something, it means that you have to give up something, whether you want to it or not, and force it in your hands, and the final result is probably not what you want to see.

Lu Bu was very annoyed to talk to a literati like Li Ru, if something was said directly, it would be over, and after such a big circle, he still couldn't understand it in the end, but the remarks of the gains and losses, even if Lu Bu didn't want to think about it, still carved into his heart like a magic sound.

Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Wei Xu, Cheng Lian, Hou Cheng, Hao Meng, Song Xian, Cao Xing, looking at these former brothers, drinking happily at the moment, even Gao Shun, who has rarely drunk alcohol, also had two bowls with Zhang Liao at this moment, it can be seen that they are really happy, not as reluctant as before, obviously Lu Bu's previous commitment made them a lot more excited.

Lu Bu leaned back in his chair and poured himself a sip of wine, he couldn't tell what it felt, he originally thought that they were following him without regrets, but until this moment, he knew that his brothers were also eager to make contributions.

This made Lu Bu's mood very complicated, thinking that in the dream, most people eventually betrayed themselves, and now that I think about it, it is not without reason.

I don't know when the rain has stopped, a group of people are fighting and drinking in the courtyard with the strength of wine, Lu Bu did not participate in it, some things, think clearly, really let go, that kind of spontaneous sense of relaxation makes Lu Bu enjoy it a little.

"Husband, what's wrong with today" In the back hall, Yan Zhang led the people to clean up the mess, and looked at Lu Bu standing at the door, and for a while there was a sense of strangeness.

"Little sister doesn't know."

Diao Chan smiled on the side: "Maybe it's because of Lingju's marriage, the people in the Taishi Department have already set a wedding date, and the husband may be a little reluctant." ” She was born extremely beautiful, even Liu Xie didn't dare to look at it more, and when she laughed at the moment, it was like a lotus blooming, and even Yan, who was also a woman, was a little distracted.

"It's just that Your Majesty is too young."

Yan was a little worried, Liu Xie is only eleven years old this year, although he looks handsome and straight, not much worse than ordinary thirteen or fourteen-year-old boys, but after all, Lu Lingju is older, Yan began to worry about whether Lu Lingju will be snubbed by Liu Xie in the future.

"My sister is too careful, and there are small benefits to being small, and Your Majesty is calm, and the Lingju is also sincere, and it will be fine."

Diao Chan said softly and relieved, even if this is the case, now that the matter has been decided, there is no way to change the royal affairs.

"I hope so."

Yan sighed, her daughter got married, and there was always something complicated in her heart.

Under the same sky, different from the festivity of Chang'an City, hundreds of miles away from the Hetao, the atmosphere at this moment is a little dignified.

Under the Wolf Mountain, the two armies and horses were far away from each other, and the solemn atmosphere spread with a murderous aura, making a group of Hu Min sandwiched between the two armies kneel on the ground, trembling.

Xu Huang frowned, looking at the horse-shaped general banner in the distance, showing his teeth and claws, he didn't expect that he had just come to Hetao, and he would be so quick to face the princes' soldiers and horses, a little caught off guard, but at this moment, he couldn't fall behind the prestige of the imperial court.

"The army opposite, who is in charge, come out and speak."

Xu Huang patted the war horse under his crotch and came to the front of the two armies, a stone's throw away, and the surrounding Hu people scattered a path.

In Ma Jiajun's team, a young general jumped out of the horse, his immature face, it should not look big, only seventeen or eighteen years old, but he was quite heroic, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, heroic, looking forward to it, with an unstoppable state.

"Who are you blocking our army's way," Xu Huang frowned and looked at the young man opposite and asked.

"Xiliang Ma Chao" Ma Chao raised his head, looked at Xu Huang's handsome flag, a flash of eager light flashed in his eyes, and said loudly: "You are Xu Huang, I have heard of you, I heard that you are a general of the imperial court, you have the courage of ten thousand people, and you are the first fierce general in Chang'an."

"Don't dare to be."

Xu Huang shook his head, although he was just a teenager, he didn't dare to underestimate it, Ma Chao's name, Wei Zhen Qiang Hu, that is the reputation of real gun fighting, it can't be faked, Xu Huang said in a deep voice: "In Chang'an City, the fierce generals are like clouds, not to mention Wenhou Lu Bu, it is Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, Tai Shici, and Gan Ning, the generals of the new imperial court, in terms of martial arts, they are all above the generals." ” This is a bit weak, but it is also a warning, the so-called newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, as soon as he saw the horse's super flying expression, Xu Huang knew that this was a master who was not afraid of heaven and earth, once he went crazy, it was not easy to clean up.

"Lu Bu" Ma Chao's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he smiled: "Sooner or later, I will meet him for a while" I don't know how thick the sky is Looking at Ma Chao's expression, Xu Huang was too lazy to say: "I am the general of Beizhonglang, this time I was ordered to go out of the town and Hetao to collect Hu Min, and since I am behind the gate, An dares to block my way." ” "Hu Min" Ma Chao glanced coldly at a group of Hu people who were kneeling on the ground and didn't dare to come out, and said coldly: "These are all burned Qiang remnants, and they should all be killed."

"Now that he is willing to return to the imperial court, this general is the general of the Hetao, these people are already the people of the Hetao, and they cannot be killed" Xu Huang is a little tired, the Xiongnu were scattered, but now the fertile soil of the Hetao is a barren, after he discussed with Huangfu Song, he is ready to follow the method of dealing with the Hu people in the first dynasty, recruit these Hu people to land and graze, and after the court transfers the displaced people in the future, the two sides will live together, and they can be better assimilated, otherwise the hundreds of miles of fertile land in the Hetao may become a wasteland.

This has just attracted a group of Qiang people who are willing to come in, but it has attracted a Ma Chao to himself, and there is no one else who is lucky.

"Ha, Your Majesty didn't say that when he cleaned up the Huns."

Ma Chao pursed his lips and said.

"Your Majesty is presumptuous, how can you wait for the strategy" Xu Huang snorted angrily, glared at Ma Chao, and said sharply: "Thinking that you are young and ignorant, this general will spare you once today, if you dare to commit it again" "How" Ma Chao looked at Xu Huang with a sneer, and pointed at Xu Huang with the second spear in his hand: "Don't tell me these nonsense, if you want to take them away, you can, but you need to beat the spear in my hand" "Okay" Xu Huang has a good temper, and he is a little angry at the moment, he took off the Xuanhua axe from the horse, and looked at Ma Chao coldly: "Today, a certain person will teach you a lesson on behalf of Ma Shoucheng" "Good courage" Ma Chao raised his eyebrows and shouted loudly, regardless of the Qiang Hu who was kneeling on the ground in the middle, he rode his horse directly to Xu Huang, although the Qiang people on both sides hurriedly dodged, they were still hit by Ma Chao's war horse several times.

"Hmph" Xu Huang snorted, and also urged the war horse, Xuanhua big axe slashed through the air, the two war horses approached quickly, and the moment they staggered, Xu Huang's Xuanhua big axe had already completed the chopping action, and cut according to Ma Chao's head.

Ma Chao snorted, and with a tragic momentum, the second spear ignored Xu Huang's big axe, and stabbed directly at Xu Huang's door, using the same way of fighting.

Xu Huang hurriedly waved his head to dodge, and let go of the spear, but Ma Chao swung the body of the gun and hit the axe, the big axe almost touched his head, and the strong wind blew his green hair flying, and a handsome face looked extremely flamboyant in the wind. t1706231537:
