However, there is no unresolvable hatred in the world. With the passage of time and the changing situation in the world, Li Li and Lu Bu became allies again after many years of separation and fought side by side.This scene perfectly interprets a sentence: "There are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests."

Of course, as far as Lu Bu is concerned, he would rather never see Li Li again in his life.But the situation is stronger than people, and now Li Li's power is growing day by day, his strength is getting stronger and stronger, and his momentum is overwhelming.Even though one hundred or one thousand people in Lu Bu did not want to see Li Li, when he actually saw Li Li, he still had to humbly ask for completeness, not daring to touch Li Li's majesty.You have to be careful in everything, for fear that Li Li will catch you, find an excuse, and then take the opportunity to make trouble.

This is the general trend of the moment, and it is an indisputable fact.Even Liu Biao, Cao Cao and other members of the alliance to discuss Yuan were the same when they saw Li Li, the leader of the alliance.

As Li Li and Lu Bu approached the gate side by side, Li Zhi, Gongsun Zan, Guo Jia, Xun You, Dian Wei, Chen Dao, Cheng Gongying, Ke Bineng and other civil servants and generals who came with him successively dismounted and greeted Lu Bu one by one. .The civil servants under Lu Bu's command, who were waiting at the gate, also bowed to salute. The difference from Xiliang's civil and military personnel bowing their hands was that all the generals under Lu Bu's command were very respectful, bowing and saluting, with extremely thorough etiquette.

"Brother Gongtai, are you here?" When Chen Gong stepped forward to salute, Li Li smiled and bowed his hands.

This is the special treatment that Chen Gong deserves.Before this, everyone knew that Chen Gong's only younger sister, Chen Yu, was Li Li's half-wife. Now she has given birth to a son and a daughter for Li Li, and she has always been loved by Li Li.Therefore, Chen Gong and Li Li had a very close relationship. When they met this time, Li Li naturally couldn't be rude to others when he saw his uncle, lest it would be true and ridiculed by the world.

"Everything is fine, thank you, General, for your concern." After exchanging pleasantries, Chen Gong didn't say much, and grasped the proportion just right.

Li Li nodded with a smile, then turned his gaze to the generals under Lu Bu's command, and named the generals one by one: "General Wei Xu, General Hou Cheng, General Han Siam, General Yang Feng, are you all safe?" When Cheng and the others answered, Li Li pointed to a strong and dignified general standing behind Hou Cheng, and said with a smile: "This general has a tight face, and he has never met before. If the general guessed correctly, If so, I think it should be General Zang Ba?"

The burly general who was named by Li Li came out in response, bowed and said: "The last general Zang Ba sees the general!"

"General Zang Ba, you don't need to be polite, please get up quickly." Stretching out his hand to support Zang Ba, Li Li said with a smile: "I have heard that the general is Zhongliang, and now I know that the rumors are true. The general's majesty is even better than his father , I am very relieved."

Seeing that Li Li was so familiar with his generals, Lu Bu, who was following Li Li, changed his expression from time to time, and his brows twitched violently.Immediately he took a step forward, bowed his body to greet him and said: "General, the pommel horse is exhausted, please take a rest in the tent. Lu has already prepared a banquet, and has been waiting for the general for a long time. Please, General"

Chapter 1000 Like a Dream Order, One Daughter Marries Two Husbands

The lonely cold rain fell quietly all night, washing the sky and the earth, drowning the messy hoof prints, trickling into the Huai River, rolling eastward.

At three o'clock last night, when the central army tent was holding a big banquet, under the arrangement of the military adviser Chen Gong, Lu Bu's camp quickly vacated the western tent for the Xiliang army to rest temporarily.

The next day, the sky was slightly bright, and before the Xiliang army could make a move, the soldiers under Lu Bu set up camp in the open space to the east two miles away from the camp, and set up a temporary barracks for the Xiliang army.

Xun You, who joined the army, reported the matter to Li Li immediately, and then military advisers Guo Jia and Gongsun Zan also rushed to Li Li's command post to ask for instructions on countermeasures.

Obviously, they all thought that the lord Li Li must have a plan for staying in Lu Bu's camp this time, and the most likely thing is to force Lu Bu to surrender and take the army under his command for their own use.

Among them, Gongsun Zan has the deepest understanding of this. That's how he was forced to surrender by Li Li that day, but today he does not regret it, but secretly rejoices.If he hadn't served under Li Li's command, he, Gongsun Zan, would still be under the pincer attack of Yuan Shao and the barbarians in Jizhou.

But it's different now.Although he is no longer the lord of a state or a prince of one side, he has completely escaped from Youzhou. He only needs to devote himself to the war and follow Li Li to lead the army.From then on, Gongsun Zan didn't have to be burdened by governing states and counties, he no longer had to worry about money, food and supplies, and he didn't have to worry about other things. He was relaxed physically and mentally, and his whole body was comfortable.The most important thing is that Li Li trusted him very much, without any suspicion, and entrusted him with important tasks, so much so that he is now the only general in the Xiliang Army who commands [-] cavalry.In addition, Li Li saved him in distress twice.Otherwise, Gongsun Zan would have been dead for a long time.This appreciation and kindness made him grateful and loyal to Li Li.

Therefore, the army is currently staying in Lu Bu's camp.Gongsun Zan believed that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and he could force Lu Bu to surrender, take his soldiers and horses, and then take Xuzhou without bloodshed.What's more, in Gongsun Zan's eyes, Lu Bu was a brave and reckless man at best, and he was not as good as himself. This time, Li Li forced him to surrender easily.

The difference with Gongsun Zan is.Guo Jia and Xun You did not advocate forcibly surrendering Lu Bu immediately, but believed that it should be done slowly and not hastily.Lest Lu Bu put all his eggs in one basket and jump over the wall in a hurry.If the forced surrender fails, Lu Bu is very likely to fight back, which will be extremely detrimental to the entire battle situation in Huainan.It is likely to benefit Yuan Shu, a fisherman in Huainan.back to life.

"Hehehe!" After listening to the opinions of Gongsun Zan, Guo Jia, and Xun You, Li Li smiled brightly and said lightly: "Since Lu Bu is so enthusiastic and willing to build a camp for our army, how can I not appreciate it? However, You Ruo (Xun You) later went to thank Lu Bu on my behalf, and told me that the follow-up army will arrive in the afternoon, and I will hold a banquet in the commander's tent at that time. I invite Lu Bu and his generals to come to the banquet."

Xun You gladly accepted the order after hearing the words.When he was about to turn around and leave, Guo Jia stretched out his hand to hold him.Signal him to wait a moment.

Under Xun You's surprised gaze, Guo Jia took out a stack of letters from his sleeve and handed them to Li Li, and said with a smile, "This is the secret letter intercepted by our army's scouts last night. The scouts thought they were the ones under Lu Bu's tent to meet him, so they easily handed over this secret letter to our army scouts, and they were secretly executed by the scouts."

After briefly stating the origin of the secret letter, Guo Jia continued: "I have read it just now, and this is Yuan Shu's handwritten letter. It is stated in the letter that Yuan Shu intends for Lv Bu to form an in-law marriage, to instigate Lv Bu to break away from the alliance to seek Yuan, and return to Yuan Shu's command. Once this letter falls into Lv Bu's hands, with Lv Bu's capricious character, he may really be persuaded by Yuan Shu to abandon righteousness for small gains and turn against him. Fortunately, this secret letter was intercepted by our army scouts first, otherwise it would be an accident. , causing trouble to Xiao Qiang. Yuan Shu has not been completely defeated, but our allied forces are once again in turmoil, with internal strife and fighting."

Speaking of this, Guo Jia paused, looked up at Li Li's expression, and said in a low voice: "I still remember that after the Sili War, Lu Bu sent an envoy to ask for help from the lord. It was the time of the Yanzhou War , Lu Bu lost to Cao Cao, and the situation was in danger, so he sent Wei Xu to Chang'an with a lot of money to ask the lord for help. At that time, the Weichen received Wei Xu on behalf of the lord, and the Weichen promised him that he could send troops to rescue Lu Bu. Dedicated to the lord as a concubine. Afterwards, Wei Chen also entrusted Wei Xu to bring the dowry to Lv Bu. Afterwards, no news was heard of this matter. After the defeat in Yanzhou, Lv Bu fled to Xuzhou with the remnants of his troops. , and did not agree to this marriage, which has been pending.

It has been three years since this happened.Back then Lu Bu's daughter was not yet a hairpin, but now she has grown into a big girl.It is said that this woman is slim and glamorous, and she is the most beautiful woman in Xuzhou. "Obviously, in order to persuade Li Li to admit to the marriage, Guo Jia unknowingly started beating the drums, trying to arouse Li Li's curiosity. As long as Li Li is tempted, this matter will be a sure thing. Once Lu Bu and Li Li If you form an in-law, then everything will come naturally, and you can get the six counties of Xuzhou into your pocket without any effort. You can get a huge Xuzhou by marrying a concubine. Such a good thing that kills two birds with one stone can't be found even with a lantern. Why not?

It is worth mentioning that Guo Jia did not decide this matter on his own, but dared to proceed after persuading Li Li in advance.At that time, Li Li himself promised: "This Bingzhou tiger will be handed over to Feng Xiao from now on. As long as it is beneficial to the overall situation, Feng Xiao can act cheaply and don't have to report everything." Since then, all matters related to Lu Bu have been handled by Guo Jia. , Information related to Xuzhou was also sent to him first, and he had full authority to dispose of it.In this way, Li Li just agreed casually back then, but he didn't expect Guo Jia to arrange another marriage after a few years.

This matter is no small matter.One must know that since three daughters Zou Jing, Meng Xin and Zhuge Ling were successively taken in three years ago, Li Li has not provoked any women since then.for three years.Li Li never married a concubine again, even during the year when he led the army to conquer Youzhou, he was a "monk" for a year, and he never let Meiji or maidservants sleep.

But Li Li never expected that Guo Jia had planned an unmarried concubine for him early on.A marriage that had been hidden for a long time finally surfaced after many years and was right in front of my eyes.

"Is this too child's play?" Just as Guo Jia expected, Li Li frowned after reading the secret letter, trying to deny the marriage.In fact, he still had some impressions of this matter, and he vaguely remembered that he seemed to have agreed to this matter, but then he threw it out of his mind and didn't take this marriage matter to heart at all.

Seeing Li Li's denial, Guo Jia was not surprised, and said in a calm and unhurried manner: "Yes, I also have this intention. The reason why I mentioned this matter back then was actually a condition to coerce Lu Bu. Force Lu Bu under the lord's command and make him use him. Speaking of which, the betrothal gifts given to him by the humble ministers were actually obtained from the princes of the towns, and some of the property is not worth mentioning. In addition, Lu Bu has always been greedy. There is absolutely no reason to return the property that fell into his hands. It's just that this guy is extremely hateful. He has received the dowry but is still unwilling to marry a daughter, which is equivalent to embezzling this valuable gift money for nothing. Thinking about it is outrageous! "

After a pause, Guo Jia paid attention to Li Li's expression, and saw that he was still calm, so he continued: "What happened back then has become a thing of the past, but things are changing now, and things are different. It is said that Yuan Shu ascended the throne last year. Afterwards, the emperor deliberately wooed Lv Bu, promised to make a lot of money, and then sent envoys to marry Lv Bu, intending to marry Lv Bu's daughter, Lu Lingqi, to his son Yuan Yao. At that time, Lv Bu fully agreed, and if Chen Gong hadn't blocked it, Lu Lingqi would have married her last year. Huainan has become Yuan Yao's favorite concubine." As soon as these words came out, Guo Jia noticed that Li Li's face changed suddenly, and a sharp cold light flashed in his eyes.

Before the words stopped, Guo Jia pretended to be ignorant and said to himself: "It is precisely because of Chen Gong's obstruction that this marriage has been put on hold. At present, Yuan Shu is surrounded by heavy siege, and most of the prefectures and counties under his rule have fallen. Therefore, he sent a secret letter to Lu Bu at this time, no doubt for two purposes. First, to draw Lu Bu back to his side, to break away from the alliance against Yuan, and to give our allies a counterattack, so as to help Yuan Shu Get out of danger. Second, you need someone to help you when you die, not only will you drag Lv Bu into the water, but you will also cause Miss Lu Lingqi to lose her virginity and be buried with Yuan Shu and his son."

At the end, Guo Jia said casually: "To this day, the lord has thousands of generals under his command, and there are a large number of civil servants. He has made great military achievements, and he has made great achievements in the country. Don't say that no one knows about the marriage contract between the lord and Miss Lu. Even if someone knows, who Dare to make unreasonable comments? It’s only because of Lu Bu’s unrighteousness and greed. One daughter marrying two husbands not only ruined Miss Lu’s reputation, but also damaged the prestige of the lord. Lu Bu is extremely hateful!” said After finishing his speech, Guo Jiayi was filled with indignation and fury, as if complaining on Li Li Li's behalf and feeling aggrieved on Li Li Li's behalf.

Just as Guo Jia was talking about Gu Zi, Xun You stood behind him and pulled his skirt repeatedly, signaling him to stop talking. Didn't you see that the protagonist Li Li's face was already livid, and he was burning with anger?

Not only was Xun You terrified, he hurriedly stopped Guo Jia, even Gongsun Zan, who was standing by the side, was frightened into silence by Li Li's gloomy expression, and kept winking at Guo Jia, signaling him to stop talking.However, Guo Jia remained indifferent, and still talked to himself in one breath.

The moment Guo Jia finally stopped speaking, the hearts of Gongsun Zan and Xun You immediately rose to their throats, fearing that Li Li would be furious and turn his anger on Guo Jia, and even harm Chi Yu and both of them.

At this moment, the big tent was extremely quiet, and a needle could be heard falling.It wasn't until Li Li spoke suddenly that the tormenting silence was broken: "Please generals are worse than aggressive generals. I didn't expect Feng Xiao to use such tricks on me, Li Li. But what Feng Xiao just said is not unreasonable. Lu Bu The guy received the dowry, but pretended nothing happened. Could it be that he thought that Li Li was weak and could be bullied? Since he received the dowry, his daughter is my concubine. How could Li Li’s woman tolerate me? Coveted by others?"

The moment Guo Jia finally stopped speaking, the hearts of Gongsun Zan and Xun You immediately rose to their throats, fearing that Li Li would be furious and condemn Guo Jia, or even Chi Yu, and blame them both.

At this moment, the big tent was extremely quiet, and a needle could be heard falling.

It wasn't until Li Li spoke suddenly that the silence was broken: "Please generals are worse than provocative generals. I didn't expect Feng Xiao to use the method of provocative generals on me, Li Li. But,,, what Feng Xiao just said is not unreasonable. The daughter of Lu Bu Originally, it had nothing to do with me. Lu Bu wanted to betroth her to anyone. However, Lu Bu accepted the dowry and pretended that nothing happened. Could it be that he thought that Li Li was weak and could not be bullied? Now that I have accepted the dowry, Then his daughter is my Li Li's concubine. How can my Li Li's woman be coveted by others?"

After finishing speaking, Li Li stood up and said in a deep voice: "If you send another gift to Lu Bu, the general will marry Lu Lingqi in three days. If Lu Bu refuses, he will be contemptuous of me and I will kill him." Do it quickly, without delay!" Leaving this murderous words behind, Li Li walked out of the big tent with his sleeves shaken, and drove the Golden Beast King straight to the camp in the east.

"Feng Xiao, look at what you've done!"

When Li Li left the handsome tent, Xun You couldn't help denouncing Guo Jia, and said with lingering fear: "Do you think how angry you are with the lord? Fortunately, the lord is magnanimous and doesn't care about you, otherwise the lord will be angry. If you can’t eat, you’ll walk around, and if you don’t die, you’ll have to peel off your skin!” Although Xun You has only recently joined Li Li’s command, he and Guo Jia are old acquaintances and have a close friendship, so don’t look at him temporarily serving in the army , but dared to bluntly criticize the military adviser Guo Jia.

Xun You didn't finish speaking.Gongsun Zan continued, "The military advisor was indeed a bit reckless just now. If the lord gets angry and vents his anger on the military advisor, I'm afraid there's nothing I can do. I can't say anything at all. Fortunately, the lord is wise and forgiving, knowing that the military advisor is just stating a fact, not intentionally arranging the lord. But The military advisor should know that there are some things that he clearly knows but cannot reveal to his face, just like what he said just now. Although the military advisor avoids the important and ignores the trivial and speaks very euphemistically, it is hard to get rid of the suspicion of slandering the lord in person, which is tantamount to saying that the lord is cowardly and timid. It was snatched away by others. This is the magnanimity of the lord, who did not convict you on the spot, and was replaced by other princes. Even I, Gongsun Zan, will inevitably blame you, and I will never forgive you lightly."

Gongsun Zan's words were more serious, but he spoke truthfully and bluntly.Not too much.Obviously, what Guo Jia just said is indeed a bit of a crime.It is really a taboo statement, and no prince can tolerate the insinuating slander of himself by his subjects in front of him.

When Xun You and Gongsun Zan were talking one after another, Guo Jia let out a long sigh, blushes appeared on his originally calm cheeks, and dense beads of sweat the size of red beans overflowed his forehead.It is true that his calm expression just now was all pretending, but in fact he was forcibly suppressing the intense anxiety in his heart, deliberately showing a calm look.Make what he just said play its due effect.

Sure enough, Li Li was irritated by his success.In other words, she was persuaded by him and made the marriage agreement with her own mouth.So far, Guo Jia's provocative method has achieved the desired effect, which led to the marriage of Li Li and Lu Lingqi in one fell swoop.

As long as Li Li has made up his mind, then this marriage is a certainty and cannot be escaped no matter what.This is the king's golden mouth promise, once a word is spoken, it cannot be changed.Regardless of whether Lu Bu agrees or not, Lu Lingqi can only be Li Li's concubine in this life, and even if she dies, she is still the ghost of the Li family.

After finally calming down, Guo Jia gently rubbed his stiff cheeks, turned his head to look outside the tent, and sighed softly: "I was forced to do this as a last resort! , threatened that one day Lu Bu would willingly submit to the lord, and then serve the lord. For this reason, I tried my best to persuade the lord to agree to this marriage, and the lord had already agreed. But you both saw it just now, and the lord said nothing about it. He is not enthusiastic, and does not take marriage matters to heart at all."

After a pause, Guo Jia changed the subject abruptly, and said, "But if you want to subdue Lu Bu right now, the safest and most direct way is to try to get him to marry his daughter to the lord. Only in this way can he completely dispel his worries, and thus willingly Follow the lord, fight for the lord, and pacify the world. This kind of good thing that kills two birds with one stone, if you change it to other princes, you must wish for it and accept it, but it is extremely difficult for our lord, and it is almost an impossible task. .

The two of you may also know that in the past two or three years, to be precise, since the lord met Mrs. Mengxin, he began to restrain his temper. Except for the lord's wife, he was almost not close to women.Leaving aside the distant ones, during the more than a year of the Eastern Expedition to Youzhou, even I, Guo Jia, and the generals in the army couldn't help stealing in private, but my lord never let Meiji sleep with me.This point, General Gongsun must be clearer than me, because General Gongsun has donated dozens of beauties to the lord, but he didn't want any of them. "

Gongsun Zan nodded in response and said, "That's true. At the beginning, I gave my lord more than [-] beauties, but the lord returned them all. At that time, I mistakenly thought that the lord thinks that the beauties are not good-looking, so I reluctantly gave up my best beauties. The beloved concubine was also given to the lord, but she was sent back by the lord unexpectedly. Therefore, when the lord led the army to fight against Youzhou, he was indeed not close to women, and the maidservants who served with him were all perfect. Award the meritorious generals as wives and concubines."

What Gongsun Zan said surprised Xun You.Because he had long heard that Li Li was flirtatious and lustful, he had several women at night, and he loved every woman. Even when he led the army to fight, he would bring many beauties along with him, and his reputation for lust spread all over the world.However, what Guo Jia did just now and what Gongsun Zan said at this moment undoubtedly completely subverted the rumors about Li Li's lustful nature, making Xun You a little unbelievable and at a loss as to what to do.It took him a long time to wake up. Fang felt that the rumors were unbelievable, so he secretly rejoiced that he had finally met the Lord of the Ming Dynasty, and that his uncle Xun Chen had finally done a reliable thing and did not deceive himself.

Perhaps because he noticed that Xun You's expression was different and he had doubts, Guo Jia said very firmly: "My lord became famous at a young age, and it is reasonable to have a few confidante around her. However, my lord's reputation spread far and wide, and some family affairs were also widely spread. If you marry a few confidante, you will be said to be unrestrained and lustful. Even if there are more than a dozen mistresses in the mansion, it sounds like a lot of people, but I don’t know which official’s mansion does not have dozens or hundreds of maidservants. Among them, there are not a few beautiful maidservants who have slept in bed, but almost all the maidservants in the inner room of the backyard are concubines. If these concubines who have had an affair with the master are all counted as concubines, there are at least a dozen or so, and as many as the upper class. Hundreds, or even more.

Let's not talk about it, let's just say that there are three people waiting for me right now.There are not many wives and concubines in name, nothing more than three wives and four concubines, but if you count all the maidservants who have served in bed, there are at least a dozen of them, far more than the number of wives and concubines in the name of the lord .But the lord is different from us, he never let his servants sleep with him, but all the women who have served him are married in, and now more than a dozen lords and wives of the Chang'an General's Mansion come from this. "
