"It's snowing. I don't know how many people will die from the cold this winter." Lu Su, wearing a fluffy cloak, said with emotion as he walked on the street.

Chen Deng, who was traveling with him, glanced at the refugees huddled in the corner, and there was not much sadness in his eyes.

Over the years, I have seen many refugees starve to death and freeze to death, and I have also seen them take up arms and join the Yellow Turbans to resist, so they are probably a little numb.

Braving the wind and snow, they crossed the street and arrived at the general's mansion. Lu Bu and Chen Gong were already kneeling in the house.

"Sit down."

After Lu Bu waved his hand, the two of them knelt and sat aside, "How about it, have you thought about it?"

"Marquis Wen, I would like to go to Huainan." Lu Su bowed.

Lu Bu smiled and patted him on the shoulder, and said in a deep voice: "The only people in Xuzhou who can be admired by Yuan Shu are you and Yuan Long. The Chen family and his son have been local officials for many years, so he may not believe it.
p>

Your Majesty has been idle for many years, and you have an old relationship with the Yuan family, and you have no official status. It is indeed the most appropriate thing for you to go. Thank you for your hard work."

"Marquis Wen's words are serious, I'm going to leave tomorrow."

"Okay."

Lu Bu nodded and said: "Ten thousand stones of rice, millet, cloth, gold, and iron tools are all ready. You can take them to Huainan when the time comes. He will definitely accept it happily."

"Here." Although Lu Su is young, he seems to have good Qi cultivation and is always so calm.

"You still need to be cautious when you arrive in Huainan. If you show any traces, you may be in danger."

"Don't worry, Marquis Wen. This plan will shock the heavens and humans. I will definitely not miss any important events for Marquis Wen."

Because the rumors about Yuan Shu's fate have become more and more popular in Huainan recently, Lu Su felt that the time had come, and it was reasonable and reasonable to go there before selling his property.

At the beginning, Lu Bu was worried that Lu Su would refuse. After all, he was just a guest, not someone like Chen Gong and others who could sell their property and follow him wholeheartedly.

I never thought that he would be happy to agree.

He really didn't know that the reason why Lu Su was willing to take this risk was that he wanted to contribute to the Han court, and he was impressed by Lin Mo's strategy.

When this was done, it was easy to earn a name in history. Scholars were proud, but they were very interested in leaving a name, and Lu Su was no exception.

"Zijing, three months at most. I will be at Shouchun City within three months. I will take you back to Xuzhou immediately and show your merit to the court." Lu Bu was not a wordy person, but he was very grateful to Lu Su for this matter.

.

"I'll wait quietly for the good news from Marquis Wen."

After saying that, Chen Gong poured four cups of the golden wine that was hot in front of the fire, which was regarded as a practice for Lu Su.

After drinking a few glasses of warm wine, the chill was dispelled. My whole body felt warm, and I felt a little excited for no reason.

Chen Deng took this opportunity to bow and said: "Marquis Wen, I would like to ask you a favor."

"Yuan Long said it doesn't matter." Lu Bu was in a good mood and drank one cup after another without looking at Chen Deng.

"Ze Rong has been living in my house for almost two months. Can Marquis Wen please meet me?"

In the past few months, the Chen family has not refused Lu Bu's request once, asking for money to borrow money, food supplies, plus the funds for the Quyuan plow and keel waterwheel, it can be regarded as a kind of kindness.

If it were an ordinary matter, Lu Bu would agree without even thinking about it, but in this matter, he couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart.

"No."

Lu Bu refused simply, "This is extremely rude. Since entering Xuzhou, I have sent people three times to invite him to meet in Pengcheng. I just pretended to be sick and disappeared. But this guy dared to call me a border refugee in front of the messenger."

, I’m not worthy of dealing with them. If I don’t avenge this revenge, how can I stand on it!”

Chen Deng was not too surprised. He nodded and stopped mentioning the matter.

He couldn't understand Zuo Rong's brain circuit. When Lu Bu took over Xuzhou, powerful families from all over the world really kept away from him. At least there was some superficial respect.

It's better for this guy to directly call others "border refugees" without exposing their shortcomings. Lu Bu doesn't care about his origin, so you can't show off your sense of superiority like this.

After enjoying the wine, Lu Su took the initiative to stir up the topic on the way back.

"With Marquis Wen's character, I'm afraid Zuo Rong will be in trouble."

"Yes, he didn't dare to touch Zuo Rong before because our major families were blocking him in front. If he moved his whole body, Wen Hou had some scruples. Now..."

Chen Deng smiled bitterly and shook his head, "He's afraid that he's going to be killed. He's doing it himself, and he's going to die. He wants to die, and no one can save him."

"That's not the case."

Lu Su, who put his hands in his sleeves, said with a smile: "There are still people in Xuzhou City who can save him."

"Yunwen?" Chen Deng looked at Lu Su, who nodded.

That's right, in the current situation, Lu Bu can't listen to what the people around him say, but what his precious son-in-law says will probably be effective.

"Yunwen, this is so powerful. This is the true suppression of heaven."

There was an incredulous smile on Lu Su's face, which seemed to be a self-deprecating smile, "To play with people's hearts and control the overall situation, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a genius. It is not a good thing to be his opponent."

"Isn't it because of him that you are willing to take the risk to enter Huainan?" Chen Deng also smiled back.

Whether it was to please Lu Bu or to prepare to formally defect to Lu Bu, Lu Su did not deny that he saw Lu Bu's future in Lin Mo and made up his mind.

Now that you are determined to stand in line, you cannot shirk what you have to do.

......

Jiujiang County, Shouchun, Taishou Mansion.

The fiery red animal gold charcoal dissipated the cold air in the room, just like Yuan Shu's mood at this time.

These days, the effect of his secret campaign has been extremely obvious, and some scholars have even directly suggested that he proclaim himself emperor.

"General, the modification should fit this time." Two tailors carefully pulled on a golden python robe, with a lifelike five-clawed golden dragon on it.

Yuan Shu nodded with satisfaction. After taking off the cloak, he tried it on and found that it fit perfectly. Isn't this God's will? He only modified the dragon robe twelve times to make it fit so well. He clearly wanted me to claim the title of emperor.<

/p>

Recently, Yuan Shu has become more and more superstitious, and even when he sneezes, he feels that there is something hidden in him.

"General." When Yuan Shu was intoxicated with himself, an old man in Confucian robes walked outside the house, with white beard and hair.

"Here comes sir, don't freeze in such a cold day. Come in and warm yourself by the fire." When he saw Yan Xiang, Yuan Shu was very enthusiastic, but there was a hint of impatience between his brows, because he knew that this old man

What are Confucian scholars here for?

"It's not cold down here."

Yan Xiang bowed to Yuan Shu, who was nearly twenty years younger than him, "General, now that the world is full of war and war, all the princes are strengthening their own strength. At this moment, the general must consider how to stabilize the remaining counties of Yangzhou across the river.

, rather than being obsessed with being an emperor in name only."

"Sir, this is wrong."

Yuan Shu adjusted his collar in front of the bronze mirror and said without looking back: "Although the world is full of wars and smoke, in Huainan, the seas, rivers and rivers are clear. I am willing to calm down the war, but...

As the saying goes, if the name is not right, the words will not be right. Now that my destiny has come, if I obey and take the throne, I will be able to regain the country and the country in the future."

"General!"

Yan Xiang's voice was hoarse and he said excitedly: "Once you proclaim yourself emperor, you will be destroying yourself. Can't the general see that we are at the most dangerous point at this time?"
