Chapter 050 Withdrawal
Lu Bu and Zhang Liao returned to Jia Mansion again.
In the Jia Mansion, Jia Feng was holding a banquet with the doggogs from the Flying Camp of Baima County. Jia Feng was very irritated when he heard the sound of crying outside the manor. He shouted at the door: "Please be quiet!"
A corpse was thrown into the hall. When the dancers saw the bloody corpse, they turned pale with fright and fled in all directions. Everyone in the main hall looked confused. Only Jia Feng roared angrily.
Jia Feng recognized the corpse as that of his beloved son Jia Xin.
"Who killed my son? Get out of here!" The muscles on Jia Feng's face twitched, and his plump cheeks trembled up and down amidst Jia Feng's angry questioning voice.
"Mr. Jia, you are fine." Lu Bu swaggered into the hall holding a bloody Fangtian painted halberd.
He had already asked Jia Xin why the rebel soldiers wore the armor of the Bingzhou soldiers. He also knew that Zhang Miao's men had been secretly colluding with the Jia family. Armor, weapons, military rations, as long as anyone could be greedy, the Jia family would not be able to do so.
Reaching out.
"Lu Bu! Why do you want to kill my new son!" Jia Feng pointed at Lu Bu and roared.
"My Bingzhou soldiers are helping you fight against Cao Cao. Why do you plunder the people? Why do you want to steal military rations?" Lu Bu shouted angrily. His voice completely drowned out Jia Feng's voice. Lu Bu's eyes were cold and filled with murderous intent.

"You are just a fool! Without nobles like us, how could you occupy Yanzhou?" Jia Feng rushed towards Lu Bu like crazy. His hands wanted to grab Lu Bu's clothes. Naturally, Lu Bu would not let Jia Feng get close.
He coldly kicked Jia Feng to the ground.
"It's because of people like you that the people think that I, Lu Bu, am a traitor!" Lu Bu stabbed Jia Feng to death with a halberd. Jia Feng's eyes were wide open and his expression was strange and exaggerated.
Jia Feng died, and the most powerful nobleman in Baima County died in his mansion. All the guests were so frightened that they all hid in the corners of the room, for fear that Lu Bu would kill them all.
"Everyone, listen up. If I know that any of you dare to do anything behind your back, your fate will be Jia Feng today!" Lu Bu's eyes swept over everyone, horrified, panicked, and desperate. Lu Bu was very worried.
Satisfied with such a shock.
"Where is the treasury?" Zhang Liao picked up a servant with one hand, and the servant informed Zhang Liao of the location of Jia's treasury. Zhang Liao and his men quickly arrived outside Jia's treasury.
When the door of the treasury was forcibly opened by Zhang Liao, all the soldiers were shocked. The Jia family actually had so much money and food.
Zhang Liao snatched many carriages from the backyard. He ordered his soldiers to load all the money and food in Jia's mansion on the carriages. After Zhang Liao thought for a moment, he lit Jia's mansion with a big fire.
Lu Bu walked out of Jia's mansion, and the two of them met and left with the money and food they had robbed.
……
Night, in Puyang City.
"Marquis Wen, you are finally back." Chen Gong said with relief. He glanced behind Lu Bu. Behind all the soldiers, there was nothing.
"Didn't Marquis Wen borrow the grain? Jia Feng is too ungrateful." Chen Gong found that Lu Bu's expression was very strange, and Zhang Liao behind Lu Bu also had an indescribable expression.
"Gongtai, I killed Jia Feng, burned his mansion, and took away all the money and food in his family." Lu Bu's calm face and Chen Gong's surprised expression could put an egg in his mouth.
A sharp contrast.
"What? Did you kill him?" Chen Gong's scalp was numb. He had the same reaction when Cao Cao killed and gave way. He really couldn't understand why these people had to rely on killing to solve the problem.
"I didn't kill him because he refused to lend us food. Jia Feng was greedy for money and food, and also used our identity as a Bingzhou soldier to rob the people. I, Lu Fengxian, will never condone such a thing." Lu Bu's voice continued.
As his grievance grew stronger, Chen Gong fell into deep thought as he listened to Lu Bu's words.
"Don't worry, Marquis Wen. I will tell Meng Zhuo about this. As for the money and food matter, let's think of other ways." Chen Gong knew the urination of the nobles and knew Lu Bu's character very well. He could only settle down.
Understand Lu Bu's emotions and think of ways to deal with the impact of Lu Bu's murder on public opinion.
"Gongtai, did I do something wrong? I knew that killing him would have an impact on us, but when I saw those people calling us thieves, I saw those beasts calling us Bingzhou soldiers.
When there is chaos, I really can't stand by and watch." Lu Bu told his difficulties with a depressed face.
"Marquis Wen, I will solve all this for you, don't worry." Chen Gong was silent for a long time. He understood that Lu Bu and he were not the same kind of people. Lu Bu was only idealistic in doing things, and the nobles were only mercenary in doing things. But fortunately, Lu Bu was honest.
He is not as cunning as Cao Cao. He is a rare lord who is willing to delegate power.
"Then it will be troublesome for me." Lu Bu's worries turned into joy. What he feared most was that Chen Gong would leave him because of his recklessness. It was precisely because of Chen Gong's existence that Lu Bu had the capital to compete with Cao Cao.
, Lu Bu now also regards Chen Gong as one of his few friends.
"Marquis Wen, where are the money and food you stole?" Chen Gong suddenly realized something. He stopped Lu Bu who was about to leave and asked.
"I distributed all those things to the people around Baima County." Lu Bu said proudly. Chen Gong was speechless. Lu Bu went out and not only gained nothing, but also caused such a big trouble.
Lu Bu hurried back to his residence. A little girl had been waiting for a long time inside the courtyard gate. There were several maids standing beside her.
"Miss, the master may have something to do and won't be back tonight. Let's go and rest first." The maid kept persuading the little girl. The little girl held a mini wooden square-shaped halberd in her hand.
Ignoring the persuasion of the maids at all, she just sat quietly on the steps waiting for her father to come home.
"Father, you are finally back!" Lu Bu returned to the mansion. The little girl jumped up from the steps happily after seeing Lu Bu. Lu Bu opened his arms, and the little girl immediately fell into Lu Bu's arms.
"What story does Lingqi want to hear today? My father will tell it to you." Lu Bu said dotingly.
"I want to hear the story of my father's execution of the traitor Dong Zhuo." Lu Lingqi said angrily.
"Didn't I tell you this several times? Why do you still want to hear it?" Lu Bu asked doubtfully.
"I want to listen! I want to listen!" Lu Lingqi hit Lu Bu's chest with her pink fist, and Lu Bu carried Lu Lingqi all the way to the bedroom in the backyard.
"Lingqi, lie down on the bed obediently, and my father will tell you what to do." Lu Bu said pretending to be angry.
"Father is so kind!" Lu Lingqi obviously liked this. She quickly took off her coat, carefully placed the mini Fang Tian Hua Ji on the table, and then lay on the bed, "Daddy, you can start.
."
Lu Lingqi took out her ears. Lu Bu was amused by Lu Lingqi's actions, and his pretended serious expression was instantly broken.
Lu Bu sat on his knees beside the bed, clumsily retelling the story of his assassination of Dong Zhuo. Lu Bu had never been a good storyteller, but Lu Lingqi listened very carefully...
An hour later, Lu Bu gently walked out of Lu Lingqi's room. He came to another room where the lights were still on. Lu Bu walked to the door of the room, checked his clothes, and then opened the door and entered.
"Why are you back so late today, husband?" A soft female voice came to Lu Bu's ears through the screen.
"I went out of the city to do some things. When I came back, I told Lingqi a story for a while." Lu Bu deliberately spoke in a high voice, trying to make his voice as gentle as possible.
The woman behind the screen walked out. The woman's eyes were like apricots, her waist was slender and her clothes were loose, and her every move and smile had an indescribable charm. Lu Bu's heart was filled with emotion as he looked at her beautiful face.
"After so many years, my husband is still like this." The woman looked at Lu Bu's heroic face and said with a smile.
"You will always be so beautiful." Lu Bu also smiled back.
……
In September, the locust plague came, and hundreds of millions of locusts passed by Yanzhou. Cao Cao, who originally benefited from the farming policy, had no harvest this autumn. Cao Cao chose to evacuate Puyang after a long decision.
Lü Bu in Puyang City also felt a headache. Chen Gong advised Lü Bu several times to plunder the people, but Lü Bu couldn't do it. Both Cao and Lü were worried about food.
"God won't help me." Cao Cao lamented, looking at the desolate wheat field.
"Father, winter is coming soon. We can just take this opportunity to do more repairs and fight Lu Bu to the death next year." Cao Pi comforted.
"Zihuan, I think you are always optimistic, and being a father is not as good as you in this regard." Cao Cao said with a smile.
"Father will definitely defeat Lu Bu, Tao Qian, Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao in the future." Cao Pi said confidently, I am clear about these things in the future. I can still be the emperor in the future, but I will not let my eldest brother die.
From Wancheng, it doesn’t matter if you want to be emperor or not.
Thinking of this, Cao Pi couldn't help but lust after his future wife Zhen Mi. In a certain way, Cao Pi was indeed quite similar to Cao Cao.
Cao Cao looked at Cao Pi's innocent face and laughed. Who can say for sure what will happen in the future? I, Cao Mengde, just want to be a general who conquers the west. I didn't expect that this kid Zihuan has quite a lot of ambitions.
"Lord, this is Wen Ruo's letter." Xi Zhicai handed a letter to Cao Cao, and Cao Cao looked complicated after reading it.
"Father, has something happened in Juancheng?" Cao Pi asked.
"No, there is news from Xuzhou that Tao Qian is dead and his successor is Liu Xuande." Cao Cao explained.
"Xuzhou will definitely fall into turmoil. This is the opportunity we have been waiting for." Xi Zhicai said happily. Cao Cao has coveted Xuzhou for a long time, and now is the best opportunity to invade Xuzhou.
