Walking to the courtyard, yesterday's festive atmosphere has not dissipated. Ruoyao is still standing dumbly under the eaves. Her delicate body is graceful and graceful, and her skirt is still blowing in the morning breeze. She is like a goddess who cannot be violated.
.
Gao Jin smiled at Ruoyao: "I didn't intend for you to be a slave. You don't have to be."
Ruo Chuochao stood there, his eyebrows lowered and not talking to him.
Gao Jin smiled slightly, approached Ruoyao and said, "Are you jealous?"
Ruoyao shook his head, glanced at Gao Jin casually, and said: "Yes." She was very calm and continued: "But Ruoyao understands his identity. Ruoyao belongs to the master alone, but the master does not belong to Ruoyao alone, right?
?" She raised her eyes and looked at Gao Jin, her eyes full of sadness.
Gao Jin sighed, stared at Ruoyuan and said, "You are so smart, so smart that it scares me."
Ruoyao smiled slightly: "What are you afraid of, sir?"
Gao Jin said: "It's always uncomfortable to get along with smart people, especially when the other person is a woman."
Ruoyuan stared at Gao Jin and said, "Sir, you always seem to be filled with a kind of fear, and you seem to be on guard against everyone."
Gao Jin chuckled: "If you had my experience, I'm afraid you would also become cautious."
Ruoyao said: "My lord, please don't forget, Ruoyao's experience is no less than yourselves."
Only then did Gao Jin think of her miserable life experience, and nodded unconsciously: "Maybe you and I are the same person, at least we have something in common, but I am different from you. I bear responsibilities. If you make one wrong step, many people will suffer."
They will all die for me."
Gao Jin stretched out, and then the door behind him opened. Lu Wanjun came out neatly dressed in a hairpin skirt and robes. Seeing Ruoyao, a smile appeared on her pretty face, she nodded towards Ruoyao and said, "I can
Do you want to call me sister Ruoyao?"
Ruoyao also returned the gift and said: "Ruoyao has met the mistress."
Lu Wanjun came closer to Ruoyao, with a Xihe smile on her face, and said solemnly: "Sister Ruoyao has been standing here all morning?" She held Ruoyao's hand, frowning and looking distressed: "My hands are cold.
Now, if you catch a cold..." She looked back and gave Gao Jin a hard look, then her eyes fell back on Ruoyao and said: "I don't know how distressed my husband is, come on, come in, I'll ask someone to add some charcoal to the fire.
Son."
A flash of panic flashed in Ruoyao's eyes. She wanted to refuse but couldn't find a reason, so she had no choice but to let Lu Wanjun lead her into the house.
Gao Jin had a strange look on his face when he saw two women entering the wedding room. He couldn't help but smile bitterly. Lu Wanjun's performance was too hypocritical. He was stunned for a moment, and then smiled.
……………………………………………………
On the fifth day after Gao Jin's marriage, Cao Cao's envoy arrived at Xiapi. As for the placement of Cao Cao's envoy, Lu Gu did not dare to make the decision without permission and went to ask Lu Bu for advice.
Lu Bu convened everyone on the sickbed to discuss, and everyone was talking about it. Chen Gong was the one who advocated for peace, and the army was currently unstable. Although the news of Lu Bu's serious injury was blocked, the matter could not be hidden forever. If Liu Bei
, Yuan Shu saw this opportunity and made a comeback, the situation was quite bad. Now stabilizing Cao Cao could also deter the princes around him so that they could not act rashly.
Lu Gu's choice was to expel Cao Cao. It was not that he did not understand Chen Gong's intentions, but he also had his own considerations. By remaining tough on Cao Cao, he could establish a certain prestige in the army.
In addition, the emperor's emissary came with Cao. There were already rumors that the content of the edict was to confer a title on Gao Jin. Lu Gu, as acting master, had not yet been recognized by the emperor, and Gao Jin, as a subordinate,
He wanted to be granted the title of Marquis, which made Lu Gu feel very uncomfortable.
Lu Bu hesitated, and finally turned his attention to Gao Jin: "What do you think Boluan?"
Gao Jin carefully chose his words and said, "What do you want, my lord?"
Lu Bu took a deep look at Gao Jin: "Bo Luan is much more cautious than before." He sighed and said: "Cao Cao's move must be because he is angry with Liu Bei. Liu Bei first surrendered to Cao Cao and then led troops to rescue Donghai, which was completely rebellious.
We have lost sight of Cao Cao's original intention and are now turning to negotiate peace with our army, which may be intended to defeat Liu Bei."
"In that case, should we treat Cao Cao's envoy, Boluan, kindly? It is said that the envoy brought an angel's edict?"
Gao Jin nodded and said, "I've heard a little bit."
Lu Bu said: "Since there is an edict and it is related to Boluan, then the matter of welcoming Cao's envoy will be left to Boluan."
Gao Jin had the courage to agree and agreed. This order undoubtedly pushed Gao Jin to the forefront and made him feel like a thorn. The emperor did not issue the order to Lu Bu, but only gave it to him.
The metaphor in this is self-evident. It seems that Lu Bu has no regard for Lu Bu but attaches great importance to dignity. It is unclear what Lu Bu would think.
Lu Bu made up his mind, waved everyone away, and then said: "Bo Luan stays and talks with me."
Gao Jin stopped and asked, "Master, is there anything else?"
Lu Bu's eyes suddenly flashed with sharpness, and he stared at Gao Jin aggressively, as if he wanted to see through Gao Jin. After a long time, he said: "Bo Luan, are you protecting yourself wisely?"
Gao Jin said: "I don't understand what my lord means."
A coldness appeared on Lu Bu's face, and he answered the question: "You have resentment."
Gao Jin shook his head: "My lord, why do you ask this?"
Lu Bu sighed and said, "Bo Luan, sit down and talk."
Gao Jin was still kneeling on the collapsed table.
Lu Bu looked at Gao Jin and continued: "I saw Bo Luan's eyes. Your eyes now remind me of someone."
Lu Bu's eyes suddenly opened and he said sternly: "Do you know who this person is?"
Gao Jin said calmly: "Master, please make it clear!"
Lu Bu's eyes were full of coldness, and he said two words: "Dong Zhuo!"
Gao Jin sighed and looked at Lu Bu indifferently: "I will not be Dong Zhuo, and I will never be."
Lu Bu sneered and said: "I know what you are thinking. Do you know that there are hundreds of swordsmen and axemen hidden outside this bedroom. As long as I give the order, your head will be removed."
Gao Jin said calmly: "Since my lord is suspicious of Gao Jin, why do you want Gao Jin to marry Jun Wan?"
Lu Bu said solemnly: "Without Boluan, how could Lu Gu defend Xuzhou?"
Gao Jin laughed loudly. Since he was talking about this, Gao Jin no longer tried to hide it. He looked aggressively at Lu Bu and said, "Isn't my lord afraid that Gao Jin will usurp Lu Gu's family property?"
Lu Bu smiled confidently and said, "I have my own arrangements. Cao Cao has sent an envoy. The first condition for negotiating peace is to send an envoy to see the emperor. Boluan can go back to pack up and pay homage. After a few days, he can casually
Cao sent envoy to Xudu together."
A trace of surprise flashed in Gao Jin's eyes and then disappeared. He finally understood Lu Bu's arrangement.
It is not so simple for this man to become a powerful man. First, his daughter was married to Gao Jin, and then he was sent as an envoy to Xudu. Gao Jin's family was still in Xiapi, so there was no way he would rebel and leave Xiapi.
These days, as long as Lu Bu dies, Lu Gu can successfully inherit his family business, while Gao Jin can only look away and sigh in Xudu.
By the time Gao Jin returned from Xudu, the rice had been cooked. Lu Gu had enough time to install his cronies in the army and establish his prestige. Gao Jin had no other choice but to serve as a pawn for Lu Gu.
This was Lu Bu's arrangement. Gao Jin smiled indifferently, nodded and said, "Gao Jin accepts the order."
