Cao Cao's departure made the atmosphere in the palace a little subtle. Wang Yun was sitting there. Although he looked calm, if you look carefully, you will notice that Lord Situ made a lot of small movements and looked at the palace door from time to time.

go.

It was no wonder that he was in trouble. What Liu Xuan said just now had such an impact that Wang Yun immediately understood that this was a sign that the emperor and Dong Zhuo had officially fallen out.

It is not uncommon for Dong Zhuo to harm King Hongnong. King Hongnong was kicked off the throne and subsequently placed under house arrest in a side hall. After Liu Xuan ascended the throne, things kept happening and he had no time to spare.

Pay attention.

Coupled with his indulgence towards Dong Zhuo Zhuo in the court, Grand Master Dong became more arrogant and treated Queen Hongnong, mother and son more and more harshly - it is said that during this period, even the food supply was very sparse.

Such behavior will naturally arouse the resentment of King Hongnong. Wang Yun also heard some resentful words about King Hongnong. When these words reach Dong Zhuo's ears, they will definitely arouse Dong Zhuo's dissatisfaction, which will directly harm him.

The lives of Queen Hongnong, mother and son were not a rare thing.

But... the emperor actually cares so much?

Wang Yun only thought that they were brothers of the emperor and had a good relationship with brothers Liu Bian.

Little did he know that what Liu Bian was angry about was not that Dong Zhuo wanted to harm his brother. The real reason for his anger was that Dong Zhuo had crossed the bottom line and touched his reverse scale.

This reversal is not the so-called brotherhood, but an offense against Liu Xuan's 'territory'.

Maybe this description is a bit inappropriate, but that's actually what happened. Liu Xuan secretly drew a territory in his heart. As long as Dong Zhuo didn't cross that line, no matter how hard he tried, Liu Xuan could just sit back and wait for the opportunity to come together again.

Settle accounts.

But if Dong Zhuo doesn't know what's going on, he directly crosses this line... I'm sorry, Mr. Dong Fei, your mission will end early, and you can go and get your lunch box.

Although Liu Xuan had some quarrels with Queen Mother He, to a certain extent it was an internal matter within the royal family. If Liu Xuan wanted to deal with it, he would have to do it himself, and it was not Dong Zhuo's turn to do it.

Sitting there, Liu Xuan's anger was not concealed at all. Lu Bu looked at him for a while but was secretly shocked: "This young emperor is really impressive. He vaguely seems to be a veteran who has experienced hundreds of battles."

When Liu Xuan was an immortal, he also participated in several wars, and probably took many more lives on his hands than many so-called famous generals. At this time, his soul was shaking with anger, and the chill that had been hidden deep in his soul was

The spirit could not help but spread out a little bit.

Although most people in this world don't understand those mysterious things, they will inevitably feel it if they are exposed to it too much. A general like Lu Bu who fought on the battlefield will naturally be aware of it, but he can't figure out why Liu Bu is there.

Xuan felt this momentum on his body and sat there with his head in confusion.

Liu Xuan's momentum suddenly disappeared. Wang Yun only felt a chill on his body and got numerous goosebumps. Then he returned to normal, so he didn't care. Lu Bu wondered if he felt wrong?

"Is it just an illusion?"

Before he could figure it out, Liu Xuan asked him a question: "What are the aspirations of Marquis Duting in his life?"

Let’s put aside the matter that Dong Zhuo offended him for now. Anyway, we are ready to break up with Mr. Dong Fei, so let’s prepare for the next thing!

As for Queen Hongnong, mother and son... As long as King Hongnong is still alive, he will have a way to save him. And Queen Mother He... If nothing happens, that's it. If something goes wrong, Liu Xuan is not generous enough to go there.

Save someone who once wanted to kill you.

For now, let's get Lu Bu to his side first. Only in this way can we deal with Dong Zhuo better.

"volunteer?"

Lu Bu is actually very interesting in Liu Xuan's eyes!

Let’s not mention what happened in the official history, but in the novel, Lu Bu possesses first-class military force at this time, and is also quite skilled in commanding troops in combat - Lu Bu is good at leading troops and horses in face-to-face duels on plain terrain, and commanding on the battlefield.

His abilities were definitely top-notch at this time, and it was precisely because of these that he was able to gain such a great reputation in Bingzhou, where he faced the Huns directly. Unfortunately, he rarely had the opportunity to demonstrate his abilities in the subsequent wars he participated in.

Judging from this, Lu Bu is definitely the top star of this period, but such a character seems to have no big ambitions.

Under Ding Yuan's account, Lu Bu served as the chief clerk. This position was actually a civil servant, and he was responsible for very complicated affairs. However, he did not hear of any chaos in Bingzhou. This shows that Lu Bu was not only familiar with government affairs, but also did a good job.

But as a top military general and battlefield commander, Lu Bu was not dissatisfied with his position at all. After all, no matter how complicated the boss's responsibilities were, he was not directly responsible for the troops and horses. He directly handed over the control of the army to his own subordinates.

Of course, those generals and commanders may be dissatisfied, but they suppress it.

Later, Dong Zhuo won over Lu Bu, and used red rabbits, horses, gold, silver, jewelry, and officials to win over him, and pulled Lu Bu into his tent. At this time, it was obvious that Lu Bu was not immune to these things, but what exactly did he want?

It's hard to figure it out. This can be seen from what happened later. Wang Yun tried to win over him, and he agreed.

Later, he became a little more depressed. At that time, he just led his soldiers and horses to wander around. The first idea was just to find a place to stay. If he hadn't met Chen Gong, I'm afraid Lu Bu would never think about fighting for hegemony in his life.

The world.

"How can a man have no ambitions? Marquis Duting's fame has spread all over the world, and he is unrivaled in bravery. Doesn't he have an ambition?" Liu Xuan's question was firstly to win over Lu Bu and pave the way for what he would say later, but also out of curiosity: "This

What exactly does Lu Bu want?"

Generally speaking, those who achieve great things have great ambitions, such as Liu Bei and Liu Xuande, who were still living in ordinary life at this time. Liu Bei's family was in ruins. If an uncle from the same clan had not provided money to support him, he would not have been able to learn from Lu Zhi.

But Liu Bei had great ambitions and always wanted to stand out. For this goal, he worked hard for decades and finally became the leader of the Shu Han Dynasty.

The same goes for Cao Cao. Cao Cao's dream was to open up territory for the Han Dynasty and pacify the four directions - although in the end he went a little too far, he kept moving towards this goal and really achieved it.

It can be seen from this that these heroes all have their own ambitions. Even ordinary people have their own ambitions. They are either looking for a wise man to assist them, or seeking a position where they can use their talents.

Only Lu Bu seems to have never revealed these things. As for Lu Bu's ambition, judging from the information compiled by Liu Xuan, it seems that he is content with the situation... There is someone who is willing to value him and make him have enough food and clothing to satisfy him.

It is enough for those who meet material needs and at the same time feel free to use their talents.

By the way, Lu Bu also attaches great importance to his family. Liu Xuan actually considered this when he wanted to marry his sister to Lu Bu - it was better than marrying someone who would throw away his wife or kill the guests at the banquet.

powerful.

"ambition……"

Liu Xuan's words really stunned Lu Bu. For a moment, he didn't know how to answer.

He was originally in Bingzhou, but he just felt that his martial arts skills were not a pity, and he wanted to gain some fame with his martial arts skills, so he joined the army. Afterwards, he fought many battles with the Xiongnu, and his reputation grew. Some people even took the flying

The name was attached to him.

This result made Lu Bu very satisfied. Although his official position was not that of the governor of Bingzhou, he felt that he was living a happy life, so he didn't care.

Later, when Dong Zhuo came to win over him, what he cared about was the red rabbit horse - the gold, silver and jewelry came with it. He felt that if Dong Zhuo could give him such a BMW, he must value him more, and he might get more if he went there.

great development, so he invested in his account.

Even at this time, Lu Bu still didn't think about what he wanted. It wasn't until that morning in the court hall that the emperor personally named himself Tiger and Lieutenant General, and then everyone bowed and saluted him when he was walking in the palace, and he was allowed to experience it.

I have experienced some of the comfort of being a high official.

"Maybe... keep climbing?"

When he thought of this, he was about to speak, but Liu Xuan saw that he didn't speak for a long time, so he continued directly: "In life, fame and wealth are nothing more than two words. Now Dutinghou is famous all over the world, and he is one of the best generals in the world.

This one seems to have reached its peak!"

When Lu Bu heard what Liu Xuan said, he couldn't help but feel proud, and his back straightened unconsciously.

Unexpectedly, Liu Xuan changed the subject: "However, Dutinghou has succumbed to Dong Zhuo's command. Dong Zhuo's cruelty and domineering has made everyone in the world angry. He controls the court and acts wantonly. He is the first-rate traitor in the dynasty. Dutinghou is under his command

The longer it lasts, the worse the reputation will be. Hundreds of years later, I'm afraid I will be criticized for being an aid to others..."

These words are quite destructive to people at this time, especially those who are sure to leave their names in history. If they really fall into infamy, how can they have the face to meet their ancestors?

Although Lu Bu didn't kowtow and beg for mercy immediately, he was still uneasy in his heart. His eyes always turned to Liu Xuan unconsciously, as if he wanted Liu Xuan to continue talking and at least give him a solution? How about that?

How can he answer this?

Unexpectedly, Liu Xuan stopped talking and changed the topic: "Marquis Wen is now in the position of General Hu Ben and is in charge of the capital, Huben Lang. He is considered to have great power. However, this position can only be determined by my words. The world

Is there anyone in the world who can give me something better than what I have given?" The meaning of calling Lu Bu the Marquis of Wen instead of his current title of Marquis of Duting is obvious.

People in the world cannot do anything but fame and fortune. Liu Xuan first reminded Lu Bu that your fame has reached its peak now. It is not surprising that the records in the history books should have a lot of praise, but if you continue to stay under Dong Zhuo's command, I am afraid it will go in another direction.

Then he used benefits to seduce him, and his words were quite clear, almost saying directly: "I can give you everything Dong Zhuo can give, and I can give you what Dong Zhuo can't give. Are you going to hang out with him or with me?"

Of course, it was impossible to win Lu Bu over so easily. Liu Xuan was about to continue to work harder when he saw Cao Cao, covered in blood, hurriedly entering the palace with King Hongnong in his arms.

p.s: Actually, I'm really curious. As far as the novel is concerned, what does Lu Bu want?
