There was a moment of solemnity in the Prefectural Shepherd's Mansion. Lü Bu stood at the head, and the other counselors and generals were arranged on the left and right. When Gao Jin arrived, everyone couldn't help but look eagerly. He first offered advice to Lü Bu, and then killed Song Xian and captured him.
For the ban, these achievements alone are probably enough to make many people jealous.
Gao Jin saluted Lu Bu: "See you, my lord."
Lu Bu was overjoyed and said: "Bo Luan doesn't need to be polite."
Gao Jin smiled calmly and stood next to Gao Shun on the left. Gao Shun winked at Gao Jin and said in a low and inaudible voice: "My lord is going to adopt you as his adopted son, Boluan, you are really awesome."
People are impressed.”
The smile on Gao Jin's face suddenly froze, adopted son? His mind went blank, and he immediately remembered that Lu Bu had indeed started his career as an adopted son, first from Ding Yuan, then from Dong Zhuo, and now he wanted to be a godfather.
This is not bad.
He knew clearly that this was Lu Bu's trick to win over him, but he had already made up his mind to refuse. Not to mention his personal relationship with Lu Wanjun, just having this adopted son hanging over his head made him panic.
At this time, several swordsmen and axemen had already come up to Yu Jin, who was pale and tightly bound by the five-flowered flower. He looked at Gao Jin dejectedly, closed his eyes, and said nothing.
Still following the same old routine, Lu Bu glared and shouted: "What do you have to say?"
He closed his eyes and did not answer.
Lu Bu was furious and ordered his beheading. Chen Gong said: "My lord, wait a moment."
Lu Bu said: "This thief is too rude. I want to kill him. Why does Gongtai stop him?"
Chen Gong bowed and said in salute: "If Yu Jin had flattered the lord and begged for mercy when he first met him, but Gong couldn't avoid him, how could he be willing to intercede for such an unfaithful and unjust person?"
When Lu Bu heard this, he couldn't help but smile. He was in a very good mood today and put away his murderous thoughts. He said, "I am forbidden, are you willing to surrender?"
Yu Jin still closed his eyes and waited for death.
Lu Bu waved his hand: "Let's take him into custody and interrogate him later."
After all the swordsmen and axemen dragged Yu Jin away, Lu Bu said with a smile: "Thanks to your concerted efforts to defeat Cao's army this time." After saying this, his eyes fell on Gao Jin: "Bo Luan, you are the first to succeed this time.
What reward?”
Gao Jin stood up bravely and said: "Gao Jin has entered Xiapi. Many things have not been settled yet. Even for making weapons, there is no money to reward him. I sincerely ask the lord to reward you with some property. Gao Jin will be grateful."
Everyone's eyes couldn't help but flash a hint of surprise. Some people had expected that Gao Jin might seek a higher official position. Some people thought that Gao Jin might be modest. No one thought that Gao Jin would blatantly ask for money. Everyone saw Gao Jin.
He looked so serious that he couldn't help but smile.
Chen Gong thought more deeply than others. He couldn't help but look deeply at Gao Jin and said in his heart: "This man is really very scheming. He only cares about money and shows that he is not passionate about power. Isn't this the most favorite object of monarchs in the past?"
?This son should not be underestimated." He sighed in his heart, who knew that Gao Jin was really short of money. On one hand, he had to pay off the money for weapon forging, and on the other hand, he had to buy betrothal gifts. If there was no money coming in, he might really have to drink.
The northwest wind is blowing.
Lu Bu was overjoyed when he heard this and said, "In that case, I will give you a load of gold and silk. What else does Boluan want?"
Gao Jin didn't know how much a load of gold and silk was worth in the market, but I guess Lu Bu wouldn't be stingy either. He quickly said, "My lord can reward you with this. Gao Jin is already satisfied and has nothing more to ask for."
Lu Bu saw that Gao Jin was not joking, so he thought highly of him. I'm afraid no one thought Gao Jin was just greedy for money, but used it to clarify his ambition.
Lu Bu smiled and said, "I want to adopt you as my adopted son, Boluan. What do you mean?"
When he came, Gao Jin felt a sudden jolt in his heart. He couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, and said quickly: "My lord, I won't give up. Gao Jin is grateful, but..." Gao Jin raised his eyes, looked directly at Lu Bu and continued: "It's just that Gao Jin thought that if we are of the same mind,
Even people of the opposite sex can rely on each other for life and death, trusting each other with their lives. If they are suspicious of each other, even flesh and blood can kill each other. Please think twice, my lord."
Lu Bu was speechless when he heard this, and the generals were also silent. No one thought that Gao Jin would refuse, but Gao Jin's words did make some sense. Didn't Lu Bu become an adopted son twice? What was the result?
Lu Bu smiled reluctantly: "In that case, I won't force it."
Everyone could see that Lu Bu was unhappy. Gao Jin must have refuted Lu Bu's face in public and made him unable to step down.
At this time, the sky turned cloudy, and Lu Bu said to the generals: "Let's call it a day. The generals will go back to their camps to train their sergeants and inspect the defense." After speaking, he looked at Gao Jin and said, "Bo Luan will stay here for now."
Everyone looked at Gao Jin sympathetically and left one after another.
Lu Bu slowly walked out of the table and walked towards Gao Jin. His eyes were like daggers staring at Gao Jin's face. Gao Jin said rather coquettishly: "I wonder if my lord has any other orders."
Suddenly, Lu Bu turned his palm into a fist and struck Gao Jin directly in the face. The punch was like a hammer, making a sound of breaking wind in the air. Before the punch came, Gao Jin felt the wind of the fist hitting the face, like a knife blowing.
Life hurts.
Gao Jin was shocked, and his reaction was not slow. He immediately clenched his fist and quickly used the through-arm fist to hit Lu Bu's iron fist.
Bang... the sound of flesh and bone hitting each other came out. Gao Jin could no longer bear the powerful force and took two steps back. His mouth was sore and numb, and his whole forearm seemed to be falling apart. He was not listening to his commands, and the joints of his fingers were still trembling.
.
The power of Lu Bu's blow was so astonishing that even his arms and fists could not resist it. Lu Bu, on the other hand, just waved his hand away, seemingly uninjured. He laughed calmly and looked at Gao Jin with admiration: "You can do this at such a young age.
Such an achievement is really impressive. Seeing you now, I am reminded of my younger self, who was also like a newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers and was high-spirited."
Gao Jin was relieved when he saw Lu Bu put back his offensive, and realized that his back was already cold. Listening to Lu Bu's words, it seemed that he just wanted to test him. He couldn't help but think about Lu Bu's attack just now.
, always seemed to feel something strange. He was at a disadvantage from the beginning, and the momentum of his punches alone overshadowed his own.
Lu Bu continued: "But you and I are different. I didn't realize it until today. Back then, I served as a captain in Ding Yuan's camp, and Ding Yuan was willing to adopt me as his adopted son. Do you know how I felt at that time?"
Lu Bu smiled brightly: "I am overjoyed. Does Boluan know why?"
Gao Jin looked at Lu Bu and just listened.
Lu Bu said: "From the very beginning, I have been different from others. Nine out of ten of the Bingzhou captains are from aristocratic families. I am the only one who has cut off the heads of countless enemy chiefs with one sword and one shot, leaving behind many heads."
It takes a man’s knife wound to pay for it.”.
Lu Bu looked at Gao Jin: "Bo Luan, do you understand? If he hadn't been Ding Yuan's adopted son, there would be no Lu Bu today in the world. If Bu wants to succeed, he can only become Ding Yuan's adopted son. Otherwise, even if he has made countless military exploits, I'm afraid
I can only serve others submissively."
Lu Bu smiled and said, "We are both from the countryside. We don't have a big family to rely on, and we each have our own strength. The difference is that I have great ambitions, but you just want to follow the crowd."
After Lu Bu finished speaking, he glanced at Gao Jin coldly and said, "Hasn't Boluan, a great talent, ever thought of determined to make a career?"
Gao Jin pursed his lips and said: "The lord is the lord, and Gao Jin is Gao Jin. If Gao Jin is determined to start a career, wouldn't he become the second lord? Although Gao Jin comes from a humble background, he only wants to be himself."
Lu Bu smiled when he heard this and said: "Although you think so, I cannot fulfill your wish. I have something to discuss with you."
After speaking, he glared at the attendants on the left and right, stepped back, and whispered: "People's hearts are unpredictable. Even Wei Xu had an affair with Cao Cao's thief in order to murder a certain person. There is no guarantee that the generals in the army will see such an ungrateful person again.
, From now on, when running the army and governing the post, you must not only supervise and enforce military discipline, but also secretly watch out for the behavior and speech of the generals. If there are any clues, report them to me immediately."
Gao Jin's eyes froze, and he immediately understood what Lu Bu meant, and a term immediately came to his mind - Jinyiwei.
That's right, at least the functions are the same. I didn't expect that history would evolve into this direction because he avoided Lu Bu's White Gate Tower disaster.
Wei Xu was Lu Bu's brother-in-law, and such a person actually betrayed him. Whoever it was he would probably no longer have confidence in the loyalty of the generals in the army.
But, why would Lu Bu trust him? Gao Jin understood the weight of this power. The leaders of the imperial guards in later generations could even be superior to hundreds of officials. They were very popular. If they were not the most trusted people, no one would be able to take on such an important position.
Does Lu Bu think he is the most reliable? Gao Jin had countless thoughts in his mind.
