When Lu Xuan returned to the post house and saw Mi Fang and Huang Zhong, they were both excited and happy for Lu Xuan. Lu Xuan was recommended by Liu Biao to serve as the shepherd of Yangzhou, which meant that Lu Xuan's power had greatly increased.
Regardless of whether he was appointed by the imperial court or recommended by Liu Biao, as long as he became the shepherd of Yangzhou, his status would be different.
Lu Xuan looked at the excited two people and said with a smile: "Look at how excited you are, Yangzhou Mu is just an identity, there is nothing to care about. Our territory is still just Lujiang County."
Mi Fang said excitedly: "My lord, this is different. You have become a state shepherd, and your status has been upgraded to a higher level."
Huang Zhong cupped his fists and said, "Congratulations, lord."
Lu Xuan waved his hands and said: "Okay, just be happy. Mi Fang, have you contacted Kuai Yue and Cai Mao and sent away the grain, grass and armor?"
Mi Fang said excitedly: "Reporting to my lord, I contacted Kuai Yue and Cai Hao yesterday and I have been busy since night. After Kuai Yue and Cai Hao made arrangements, they went back. I led people to keep an eye on them and worked all night. All the supplies
Already sent away."
Lu Xuan breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Thank you for your hard work."
Mi Fang shook her head and said, "It's not hard!"
He followed Lu Xuan and witnessed Lu Xuan's strength, which made him full of energy.
Lu Xuan ordered: "The food has been sent away, so there is no need for us to stay any longer. Tomorrow morning, I will bid farewell to Liu Biao and leave Xiangyang. If you have things to do in Xiangyang, please make arrangements for yourself."
"I humble my duty and obey my orders."
Mi Fang and Huang Zhong answered in unison.
The two turned around and left.
Lu Xuan sat in the study, thinking about the situation in Xiangyang and even Jingzhou to avoid any omissions. While Lu Xuan was reviewing the situation carefully, a knock came from outside the door. Lu Meng opened the door and entered, reporting: "My lord, Mi Heng
Here he comes, he wants to see you."
Lu Xuan laughed when he heard it.
Mi Heng is here?
This guy was completely embarrassed at Liu Biao's banquet and became a laughing stock.
Now Mi Heng comes to see him, weird!
Lu Xuan thought for a while and ordered: "Leave him alone for the time being."
"Here!"
Lu Meng turned around to inform.
Lu Xuan sat in the study and read. Half an hour passed before Lu Xuan asked Lu Meng to bring someone in.
Mi Heng entered the study. He looked haggard and his hair was disheveled. When he saw Lu Xuan, he knelt on the ground with a plop, knocked his head on the ground, and said loudly: "Mi Heng, I came here to apologize to Prefect Lu."
Lu Xuan smiled softly and said, "You came to me to plead guilty, shouldn't you bear the burden of a thorn to plead guilty? You just came naked, it's nothing to apologize for, it's not sincere."
Mi Heng was stunned for a moment.
Asking for forgiveness?
Carrying thorns is just a formality. Is it necessary to carry thorns on your back?
Mi Heng was thin-skinned and a little embarrassed, but in order to deal with Lu Xuan, he endured it and said: "Prefect Lu needs me to bear the thorns to apologize. Please allow me to go back and prepare the thorns to carry on my back, and then come back to apologize."
Lu Xuan tentatively said: "Ni Heng, you and I each have our own positions. You have your thoughts and I have mine. Why do you need to apologize?"
Mi Heng knocked his head on the ground and stuck his butt high, giving people an extremely sincere look.
"Prefect Lu, I really come to apologize. I was young, frivolous and self-righteous. I offended Prefect Lu and ended up in the situation I am in now. This is the fate I deserve. Everything is my fault."
Mi Heng's voice had a vibrato.
A sad look.
Lu Xuan said calmly: "You came to plead guilty, which means you have realized your mistake. Why are you still calling Lu Taishou now? I am now the Yangzhou Shepherd recommended by Liu Jingzhou."
Mi Heng's cheeks twitched.
Lu Xuan has so many things to do, it's too troublesome. As a Yangzhou shepherd, you are not appointed by the court, so you just rely on Liu Biao's recommendation. Even if Liu Biao's recommendation is within the process, what kind of state shepherd are you?
Mi Heng was angry, but he didn't show it at all. He said, "Little man, I want to pay my respects to Mr. Lu."
Lu Xuan smiled and said: "Get up."
Mi Heng suddenly became excited and felt that he had an opportunity, so he asked, "Has Mr. Lu forgive me?"
There was amusement in Lu Xuan's eyes.
Mi Heng has changed so much that he is curious about Mi Heng's intentions.
Lu Xuan tried again: "You take the initiative to ask for mercy, and I forgive you. Okay, go back."
Mi Heng was excited and said loudly: "Lu Shijun, Ni Heng is so arrogant and ignorant that everyone shouts and beats you, and you lose face. You Heng has nowhere to go now. Please take him in, Lu Shijun."
Lu Xuan was surprised and said: "You want to submit to me?"
Mi Heng solemnly said: "Please let me take you in."
Lu Xuan thought about it again.
Will Ni Heng suddenly wake up?
If it were him, he would have suffered endless humiliation, lost face, and had all his spines broken. Such life-and-death hatred cannot be forgotten or let go. As soon as he sees his enemy, he will think of what will happen to him.
of humiliation.
Does Mi Heng want revenge?
Lu Xuan made a guess and continued to think about it. If Mi Heng was the only one who wanted revenge, based on Mi Heng's ability alone, even if Mi Heng was given another ten years, there would be no chance.
"Are there any accomplices?"
Lu Xuan suddenly thought of more.
Liu Pan, Cui Jun!
These two people were also the ones who had lost face because of Lu Xuan. Perhaps these people had become entangled together and intended to deal with him.
Lu Xuan was just guessing, not sure. He looked at Mi Heng in front of him. He could reject Mi Heng and let Mi Heng leave directly. But in this way, Liu Pan and Cui Jun who were hiding in the dark would not be able to find out, nor would they
Know the other person's intentions.
To catch all the enemies in one fell swoop, the best arrangement is to use the enemy's tactics to their advantage.
While Lu Xuan was thinking, Mi Heng felt uneasy. He was worried that Lu Xuan would refuse.
Mi Heng felt anxious. Once Lu Xuan refused, he would be unable to track Lu Xuan and determine Lu Xuan's location.
In order to win Lu Xuan's trust, Mi Heng said again: "Lu Shijun, my reputation is bad. Liu Biao doesn't want me. The scholars in Jingzhou despise me. I have no place to stay in Jingzhou. My survival is now a problem. Please
Governor Lu, give me a chance to start a new life. I will definitely change my ways and won't be as self-righteous as before."
Lu Xuan looked at Mi Heng's appearance and stood up to Mi Heng's words, becoming more and more certain that Mi Heng had other agendas. She quickly made a decision and said in a deep voice: "Mi Heng, do you really want to submit to me?
"
"Yes, yes."
Mi Heng didn't want to answer directly.
Lu Xuan asked: "Are you willing to do anything I ask you to do?"
"willing!"
Mi Heng answered again.
Lu Xuan said: "Forget it, for the sake of your sincerity, I will give you a chance. But the person I want must be able to endure hardship. If you can't do this, you are incompetent."
Mi Heng said: "I can endure hardship."
He is willing to endure humiliation and bear the burden. As long as he can get revenge, no matter how hard it is, it will be worth it.
A smile appeared on Lu Xuan's lips and he ordered: "Lu Meng!"
"exist!"
Lu Meng entered the study.
Lu Xuan ordered: "Mi Heng will work for me now, and I agree. You take him to the stables and let him clean the stables. Today, the cleaning of the stables will be left to Mi Heng, and no one else can interfere."
"Here!"
Lu Meng nodded in reply, glanced at Mi Heng, waved his hand and said, "Let's go, follow me."
Mi Heng stood up, saluted Lu Xuan again, and left with Lu Meng.
Mi Heng arrived at the stables and saw the horse excrement everywhere in the stables. He saw the messy stables and smelled the pungent smell. He felt extremely distressed and even felt extremely uncomfortable in his stomach.
Lu Meng ordered: "There are three stables here, clean them all."
"yes!"
Mi Heng agreed.
He picked up the broom and began to clean the stables. However, he never touched the Yangchun water with his fingers. He suddenly cleaned the stables and smelled the pungent smell. He could bear it at first. After a while, Mi Heng couldn't help it and opened his mouth.
With a "wow" sound, he started to vomit.
Lu Meng sneered, he ignored Mi Heng and returned directly to the study.
Lu Meng looked serious and cupped his hands and said: "My lord, Ni Heng went to clean the stables and has already vomited. This guy has a deep hatred against us, an undying hatred. He has no ulterior motives in submitting to the lord. My lord, there is no need for us to accept him."
, just drive him away."
Lu Xuan smiled and said: "If you drive Mi Heng away, how will you deal with the people behind him? Call Zhou Tai over and I will make some arrangements."
Lu Meng turned around to inform.
Not long after, Zhou Tai entered the study, cupped his fists and said, "Lord."
Lu Xuan handed a letter to Zhou Tai and ordered: "Ask a soldier to deliver this letter to Gan Ning as soon as possible."
"As you command!"
Zhou Tai nodded and answered.
He hurriedly made arrangements.
Lu Xuan's eyes showed a look of expectation. He wanted to see what people like Mi Heng could do?
