[Three Kingdoms] Burning incense and sacrificial wine

Hearing Li Ru's words, Lu Bu's heart was shaken.

That's right, now that the big business is still undecided, Dong Zhuo still has a lot of places where they can be used, so he beats, scolds and oppresses them at will.Wait until the day when the world is peaceful, can he and Li Ru still have a good result?

Lu Bu remembered that when Dong Zhuo recruited him back then, he was wearing a gold-plated long crown and a red tiger-striped shirt.

"How does Ding Yuan's martial prowess compare to mine?"

"Not as good as Dong Hou one or two."

"Then why doesn't Feng Xian abandon Ding Yuan and serve me loyally? As long as you agree, I will immediately offer gold, silver and fine wine, mansions and fertile fields; the army under my command will be driven by you, and the treasures and horses will be chosen by you."

"This……"

"With the talent of the king, why do you want to be a small master book under Ding Yuan's tent? Ding Yuan's fellow, it really delays Feng Xianer."

Lu Bu was shaken.

A scholar dies for his confidant.There is such a hero with strong martial arts who appreciates him and supports him, what else can he refuse?

How could he, Lu Bu, be willing to be an insignificant civil servant for the rest of his life?Live under a martial artist who is inferior to him in every aspect?

So he killed Ding Yuan and turned to Dong Zhuo.

Dong Zhuo did, as promised before, reward him heavily, reuse him, and even said "treat him as a parent and child".

Lu Bu thought he had met the Ming Lord, but within a few months, this kindness of knowledge and encounter was riddled with holes and shattered day by day.

Maybe it started when Dong Zhuo became more arrogant and moody, or maybe it started when the Xiliang Army squeezed out the Bingzhou Army and Dong Zhuo favored and turned a blind eye.

"In the past, the grand master was courteous and virtuous, so I will do my best to repay you. How do you know that the world is changing and people's hearts are easy to change. Look at today's grand master, is there a little bit of boldness and nostalgia in the past? I know that General Lu cherishes heroes and is loyal to the good Lord, but you Looking at what the grand master has done in the past few months, how can he be called a hero, and how can he be called a good lord?"

Lu Bu hesitated, "I've been waiting for the Grand Master for a long time, what else can I do now?"

"Do you know how many people in this city are opposing the Grand Master openly and secretly?"

"Sir, do you mean to unite these people...?"

"Scholars raising righteous soldiers will not succeed in ten years. These people alone can't achieve great things, but if we want to control the capital as soon as possible after the mutiny, we can't do without these people." Li Ru was very calm at this time, and he didn't even have the slightest embarrassment to cry , "After the matter is accomplished, these people may not see us as a thorn in their side... But it's okay, with the current situation, the supporter is king. When we conquer the army outside the city, forgive them for not daring to say a word."

Lu Bu was shocked: "This..."

Li Ru stepped forward and whispered in his ear for a while.

Lu Bu's expression flickered: "...Let me think about it again."

Li Ru bent a slightly sinister smile, bowed and saluted: "If the general has made up his mind, he can tell Ru in the form of the letter, and Ru will do his best to help the general."

Lu Bu returned a salute and watched Li Ru leave.

After Li Ru left, one of Lu Bu's soldiers whispered, "General, this matter is not trivial..."

Lu Bu raised his hand to signal his soldiers to silence: "Li Ru, an old fox, seems to have been forced hard by Dong Zhuo."

The soldiers dare not interface.

Lu Bu said to himself: "It's okay. At present, the general and he still have the same interest relationship, so I'm not afraid of him doing bad things... just wait and see."

He took a jade pendant from his waist and threw it to the soldiers: "You go to Wen Yuan (Zhang Liao) and ask him to come and have a drink with me."

The soldiers should go down.

Jiang Zun knew nothing about Li Ru and Lu Bu's actions.

In fact, Jiang Zun knew that the strategy he offered to Dong Zhuo was a trick to harm others. It was called rebellion, but it was actually forced rebellion.But what does that have to do with him?

Jiang Zun's purpose is to pass on his own crisis, and get rid of those who are not pleasing to the eye by the way. The Youjia are all innocent, and he doesn't care if they are not wiped out.

Therefore, he deliberately blurred cause and effect and logic, and placed his own people in the most critical link.Even if You Yi is weak and incompetent, and dare not resist after being wiped out, he still has a way to achieve his goal.

It's a pity that the timing was not coincidental, not only did the two people in the way escape the trap, but also an unknown counselor who would not come back sooner or later came out, reminding Dong Zhuo in disguise, reminding Dong Zhuo of Cewen, and channeling his anger Go back to him and order him to solve the troubles of the gentry as soon as possible.

Jiang Zun had no choice but to think about countermeasures in the luxurious room Dong Zhuo had prepared for him.Having no idea for a long time, he scolded the culprit in his heart.

"Hateful Cui Song..."

Although he wanted to find Cui Song's bad luck very much, he didn't dare to do it directly, for fear that the other party would be rushed and the other party would come to Dong Zhuo and tell the whole truth.

Jiang Zun had to silently hurt himself.At this moment, he had to suspect that Cui Song deliberately forced him into a narrow path, and left him a glimmer of life, which made him panic, aggrieved and unable to attack.

"This Cui Song is really hateful. Could it be that I am sure that I will not tell He Xiu in order to protect myself? He is not afraid that I will not be able to protect myself, so I will fight him to death?"

Jiang Zun made up his mind to reveal the truth by himself. He Xiu was abused and flogged by the gentry who controlled public opinion. Cui Song was so remorseful that he committed suicide in front of He Xiu's grave and apologized. He couldn't help laughing.

At this moment, someone knocked on the closed door.

"who?"

Jiang Zun was extremely upset when someone interrupted his train of thought suddenly, and his tone was tinged with anger.

"Mr. Jiang calm down, the younger one is ordered by the grand master to report something important."

Jiang Zun opened the door: "What's the matter?"

"The grand master got the news: Somehow it spread in the court...it is said that the reform a few days ago was Mr. Jiang's idea."

"what?!"

Jiang Zun turned pale with shock.

He wanted to get Dong Zhuo's appreciation and reuse with this policy article, but it didn't mean that he was willing to use his own name to offend the gentry and bear their anger for nothing.

"Who intends to harm me!"

Several lists flashed through his mind, but he excluded them one by one.

Cui Song...it should not be him.With Cui Song's personality, even if he wanted to harm himself, he would not use this method.

Dong Zhuo...it doesn't make sense to be him.The matter had already happened, and everyone knew that this reform was the idea of ​​"a certain counselor" under Dong Zhuo's account.What's the good of Dong Joo blowing his name out before he figured out a solution?He, Jiang Zun, was not well-known, so he couldn't attract firepower for Dong Zhuo. Dong Zhuo's actions would have no effect except to harm him in vain.

Unable to think of anyone who would harm him, Jiang Zun could only curse viciously in his heart, trying his best to suppress the growing uneasiness.

He comforted himself that as long as he stayed in the Grand Master's Mansion, as long as he was still useful to Dong Zhuo, those people would not be able to do anything to him.But for some reason, the uneasiness lingering in my heart has not diminished, but has become more intense.

In the afternoon of this day, Cui Song and Guo Jia, who were playing Lu Bo in the post house, received an invitation from Lu Bu to come to the house for a talk.

Guo Jia "killed" the "Xiao" on the chessboard, got up and smoothed out the creases on his clothes:

"The time has come—full stack."

The two arrived at Lu Bu's mansion in light clothes, and when they reached the main hall, they were greeted by Lu Bu himself.

"How dare the general greet you personally?"

"The two of you will be separated from Bu." Lu Bu sent someone to wait for them to be seated, and suddenly he looked sad and let out a long sigh.

Cui Song had already guessed Lu Bu's intention to call them here, pretending not to know, and asked knowingly:

"The general is in charge tomorrow, why are you sighing?"
