"Hungry..." Li Kai woke up and groaned unreasonably. An unprecedented hunger hit him. He opened his tired eyes and saw a dark scene. Only the oil lamp not far away occasionally swayed and could be vaguely heard.
The restless chirping of crickets in the starry night;
"Are you awake?" A deep voice rang out, and the people around him stood up, blocking the entire firelight. This was Lu Bu, and only he had such a generous body: "Come here! Get some for the little gentleman.
Eat! Hurry!"
Li was a little tired and mentally exhausted. In the darkness, he could see Lu Bu's haggard face, his eyes were bloodshot, and he felt a little moved in his heart: "Thank you, Marquis Wen, for caring about me... I'm really touched!"
"
Lu Bu rolled his eyes: "I'm so impressed! If nothing happened, I wouldn't keep vigil for you. It's like keeping a vigil for you. It's bad luck!" Even though he said this, he himself didn't notice a smile on the corner of his mouth;
From the deep estrangement between each other, constant bickering and even fighting, to the mutual trust now, a certain friendship has been established between a prisoner and a general. It may not be that deep, but it is also rare;
"What happened?" The sergeant brought some rice porridge and meat. Li's eyes suddenly glowed with green light, and he started eating hungrily. He said vaguely: "You say, I listen, details
a little!"
Lu Bu sighed: "You have been in a coma for three days! You can't wake up no matter how you scream, and the doctor can't see it! Damn it...three major things have happened in the past three days! It doesn't count as three rooms...
Anyway, I feel something is wrong!"
"Three days? So long?" Li Kai paused while drinking the porridge. Thinking about it, people have a sense of self-protection, especially when they are mentally traumatized. The subconscious mind will repair itself and avoid reality.
He also suffered serious injuries in the collision with the system;
"Well! It's been three days!" Lu Bu nodded and stretched out his broad palm: "The first thing! According to your idea, we wore Alliance armor and attacked them... and achieved good results.
He also killed Wang Kuang, the governor of Hanoi! This is the only good thing!"
After a pause, Lu Bu's words were trembling: "The second thing... Li Jue defeated Sishui Pass! He only escaped with his own body!", only escaped with his own body... What does this mean? It means that he was defeated in a complete mess and could only escape.
Protect yourself! You can imagine the situation at Sishui Pass. The Xiliang army has been completely defeated!
"What method was used? According to the strength of Sishui Pass, it is almost as strong as Hulao Pass! Li Jue also has an army of 60,000 to 70,000 people around him. It is said that Xu Rong of Xingyang also moved there, and the Western Alliance Army was only
More than 200,000 people... doesn't make sense?" Li Kai put down the food, and the foodie was also shocked at this time;
Lu Bu closed his eyes and said: "According to the people who escaped over there, a counselor in the alliance army set up a series of plans. He first challenged Li Jue and lost nine battles in a row in three days. Li Jue got carried away and all the troops came out.
..It was flooded! Xu Rong also arrived after the barrier was broken. He is currently confronting the alliance forces in that area!"
"What's one more thing?" Li asked curiously. These two pieces of news have not yet reached the point of destroying the foundation of the Xiliang Army, far from it, and there is nothing to be afraid of;
I clenched Lu Bu's big fist and said, "The Prime Minister has decided to move the capital! I know this is Li Ru's suggestion... He sent me an order to rush back as soon as possible to raise supplies for Dong Xiangguo... to excavate the imperial palace
Ling! This is trying to kill me! How will the world view me from now on?"
What will the people of the world think of me? Yes! Excavation of the imperial tomb? Those who are loyal to the Han Dynasty will scold Lu Bu bloodyly and bury me over and over again!
"Then what do you want?" Li Kai was keenly aware of Lu Bu's strange emotions now. Even though he had lost the possession of the counselor, such a long period of study was enough for him to analyze some things. His eyes and senses
They are all still there, and the only thing left is to continue learning, improving, and accumulating. As System Chen said, sooner or later, one day, she will live her life looking at Li Kai's face, instead of looking at her face.
Lu Bu struggled a little: "I now understand why Ding Yuan warned me before he died that he underestimated the power of reputation! I am quite troubled now. If I continue to cooperate with Dong Zhuo, I will become the target of public criticism in the future. If...
If you rebel, then people in the world will be more convinced of my reputation as a slave with three surnames! Damn it!"
Why did he recognize Ding Yuan as his adoptive father in the first place? The reason is very simple. He had already placed many of his own people in Ding Yuan's army, just waiting for the opportunity to accept them. Later he met Dong Zhuo and saw whether Dong Zhuo was there.
Regarding the heir, he wants to repeat his old tricks, but whether he is his biological father or his adoptive father, as long as you do it, you will never be able to wash away this bad reputation!
Lu Bu regretted it very much. He thought he was smart and chose a shortcut. Ding Yuan and Dong Zhuo were all ambitious people, and they all had no heirs... Unfortunately, there is a price to pay for taking shortcuts, and this price is really
It’s not something ordinary people can bear!
"I would like to advise you, don't betray Dong Zhuo easily, at least not for now! Otherwise... you will still be played by the Alliance Army. They will use you as a spearman instead of sincerely accepting you! No matter how powerful the Alliance Army is,
They are still scattered, each with their own thoughts, Dong Zhuo is the most powerful person at the moment!
Originally, as a member of the Alliance Army and an important figure in the think tank, I shouldn't say this, you should understand!" Li raised his eyebrows: "I don't want an upright hero to be ruined!
"
No matter how good Lu Bu's methods are, he can still be considered bright. Compared with those politicians who have a good face and do one thing on the surface, Lu Bu is much better than others. In any case, Lu Bu is still very good to him. He needs to help this person!
"Yes! I know!" Lu Bu nodded: "Then this is my third request! How should I survive in this troubled world?"
"You are very cunning!" Mr. Li shook his head and smiled: "How to survive? This is a long-term plan, which includes saving your life for now... When did you learn to be so cunning?"
"Learned it from you! When you are with cunning people, even a lump of wood will change!" Lu Fengxian shrugged his shoulders and told his own cold joke;
Li Kai lay down and thought quietly. Lu Bu didn't bother him. He closed his eyes and rested. Occasionally he opened his eyes and glanced at Li Kai without saying a word. He knew that this was a conversation and thinking about his future. He
If you choose to trust Li Kai, and Li Kai also chooses to help him, then you need to be cautious! This is not child's play!
After a long time, Li Kai opened his eyes and asked: "Do you know yourself?"
"What?" Lu Fengxian didn't know why. He answered after a long while: "Maybe I understand. Maybe I don't understand! But in this troubled world, doesn't everyone hope to make a career?"
"Oh!" Li Kai nodded slightly: "According to your character, you are arrogant, overjoyed at success, and act willfully... very few people can tolerate you. If you want to choose a wise master to assist, even if you
Keep a low profile, and they may not accept you. What happens after you achieve great success is terrifying! Haha!
Then! Your other way is to fight it yourself! This road is very difficult! It is full of dangers, and if you are not careful, you will be in catastrophe. Not only will you be affected, but your subordinates will also be implicated! If you really
If you choose this path, I will also make a path for you. It depends on whether you are willing to go there!"
"Tell me about it! I also need to be screened!" Lu Bu raised his eyebrows;
"Kill Dong Zhuo! Take over all his forces! Take root in Xiliang and Chang'an! It sounds simple, but the difficulty... you can imagine! Especially after killing Dong Zhuo, your reputation will also be
There is a low point!", Li Kai smiled faintly;
He has been helping Lu Bu for free. He is working hard for another goal of his, and he is constantly calculating. Only when Dong Zhuo dies is his biggest opportunity! That thing can change the world!
Lu Bu pondered: "Kill him? News came a few days ago that Hu Wencai used his body as bait to assist Li Ru in flooding the alliance army. He is dead... One of Dong Zhuo's four most outstanding generals has died, but
The other three are not ordinary people either. Especially Xu Rong...and Li Ru!"
From Xiangguo, Dongxiangguo and then to Dong Zhuo, this is undoubtedly a change, which proves that Lu Bu still agrees with this matter in his heart! His ambition is not small!
"Hahaha! In Dong Zhuo's repeated depravity, Li Ru's effect is getting smaller and smaller! Don't worry! You don't need to worry about these things. You just need to listen to me for the time being! Do you understand?"
, there was a ghostly smile at the corner of Li Kai's mouth: "Then - let's follow Li Ru's arrangements first!"
Dong Zhuo wants to move the capital. Why is this? Rumor has it that there is a children's song in Luoyang City: There is a Han in the east and a Han in the west. Only when the deer walks into Chang'an can we avoid this disaster! The so-called deer naturally refers to the emperor! The same is true for competing for deer in the world.
mean;
The appearance of the nursery rhyme is very strange. Some people speculated that it was created by the royalists of the noble families. But in fact? No! At least Li Ru can say so with certainty! Because he ordered people to secretly spread this nursery rhyme!
The Xiliang army is still strong. Facing an alliance army of more than 600,000, it has been fighting for more than a month with more victories than defeats. Why should it withdraw to Xiliang? Can it be compared with Luoyang? This is the Central Plains.
Important land, but at that time it was a little peaceful!
Li Ru didn't want to give up so early. Luoyang was an important place in the Central Plains, and was blocked by the dangerous pass of Xiongguan. It could be said that it was easy to advance and attack, and to retreat and defend. It had a large population and abundant grain and rice. Although it was the target of public criticism, it was indeed the most popular.
Good development location;
On the other hand, Chang'an is a place close to Xiliang. There is a lot of turmoil in Xiliang. Ma Teng and Han Sui are not ordinary people. Even if they cannot be defeated, they will always feel disgusted. The wind and sand all year round, the vast territory and sparsely populated areas... What do you think?
Neither is the best place for development;
The reason that forced Li Ru to make this decision was Dong Zhuo. His mental state was really bad. He had improved a bit, but a royalist plot to assassinate him made him manic. He killed people all day long for fun and was obscene.
The harem...is becoming less and less impressive;
There are too many people who want to kill him in Luoyang. There are internal and external troubles, so it is really not suitable to stay here. Once Dong Zhuo falls, the Xiliang army will kill them and scatter them, and he, Li Ru, will also die here.
Back to the Xiliang area, at least they have a solid foundation there;
Hedong, Hongnong, and Xiliang counties are all places where they once laid down their roots. Going back is equivalent to returning to their hometown. Even with Ma Teng and Han Sui at their elbows, Dong Zhuo can spend a peaceful life there.
A good old age;
It can be said that Li Ru was a very good counselor and a loyal person. He was really benevolent and righteous. He didn't owe Dong Zhuo anything, even if he was his son-in-law! He didn't owe Dong Zhuo either! If Dong Zhuo didn't have this family fortune,
Li Wenyou... I still can’t tell what he looks like!
His thin body seemed like a gust of wind could blow him away. Li Ru's sunken eye sockets contained wind and thunder: "Lu Bu...how are you now?"
The sergeant beside him said hurriedly: "Marquis Lu Wen is following your instructions to excavate the imperial mausoleum, plunder big households... and kill many people! He seems very happy, and he also hid a lot of things secretly...
don't want?"
Li Ru waved his hand: "As he pleases! Let's go! It's time for us to set off! Luoyang... is going to be over too! What a pity this place is! Tell Lu Bu to burn it!"
There were really many things buried in the imperial mausoleum. Carloads of treasures were excavated and transported away, and even the coffins were pried open. The Bingzhou army was very manic and violently destroyed everything without mercy;
"Is Li Ru gone?" Li Kai sat on a golden coffin and exclaimed: "They are all made of gold. No wonder there is less and less gold on the market! It's all these emperors and rich people who mess around with money!
.It’s just for flowers, it would be a pity to use it for burial!”
Lu Bu was in a very unhappy mood: "Li Ru just left! Xu Rong's troops were left behind! They said they wanted to help us, but they actually didn't come to monitor us! Humph! Li Wenyou..."
Li Kai raised his eyebrows: "Are you interested in following me for a walk around the palace? I've never been in the palace before! Let's go! Just think of it as a way to relax! Don't be so gloomy. It's what I promised.
I will do it, but I still need you to be patient and be strict with your mouth!"
"Wenyuan! Order five hundred soldiers and horses! Come with us!" Lu Bu waved his hand, and Zhang Liao over there began to greet his soldiers and horses. After a while, they were on the road;
The imperial city of Luoyang is very large, occupying the entire center, but now things and people have changed. Li Kai smiled a little self-deprecatingly: "I think back then I was just a... beggar here! Even the clothes on my body were...
It was stolen! But who would have thought that more than a year later, I would be able to influence the life and death of this city?
As the saying goes, don’t bully young people into poverty. That’s it. Life is full of uncertainties. No one knows what their future will be like. They just need to seize opportunities when there are opportunities and create opportunities when there are no opportunities! I’m right.
? Marquis Wen?"
"Who knows? You might as well ask Wen Yuan for this kind of question! He is smarter than me! But the saying "Don't bully young people who are poor is very good!" Lu Bu looked at Luoyang City casually: "Burn it... yes
Isn’t it a pity?”
"Do you know what I came to the palace to find?" Li Kai smiled faintly: "Very few people can withstand her temptation. But in fact, it is just a dead thing, a worthless piece of junk.
Something! A rock!"
"Broken stones... very few people can withstand her temptation? What a fallacy! Are all the people in the world blind? Will broken stones be regarded as treasures?" Lu Bu curled his lips in obvious disbelief: "Go ahead and lie to ghosts.
!”
"Hahaha!" Li Kai shook his head and laughed: "But it has a name. It's called Yuxi!"
"What?" Lu Bu was shocked: "The jade seal... wasn't it lost last year when Shi Chang served on the fire and He Jin? How do you... know where he is?... This piece of broken stone is really his mother.
’s—baby!”
"I know how to figure it out!" Li Kai smiled proudly, leaned close to Lu Bu and whispered: "You can't be greedy for this thing. You need to give it to Dong Zhuo at the right time? Do you understand? Never do it.
Anyone who believes in destiny is a lie!"
Lu Bu laughed: "Don't worry, I won't be greedy for a broken stone. If I find it, I will leave it with you! Tell me where we should look for it!"
Mr. Li pretended to stretch out his palms to calculate. In fact, he was just making a fuss and making nonsense: "In the water...in the well! I can't tell the exact location, so I'd better let the sergeants explore it! Let's see where it is.
There’s something wrong in the well!”
"That's enough? Do you really know how to..." Lu Bu obviously didn't believe it: "Since you know these metaphysics, why don't you believe in destiny and the like?"
"You don't understand this! As the saying goes, everything is people-oriented, and what you learn is for application. Learning these things is for my own use, not for belief! Come with me to see the royal kitchen in the palace, what I want to do most
That’s it!” Li Kai rambled casually;
After staying here all afternoon, Mr. Li happily made something with the remaining ingredients and ate like that all afternoon: "Still haven't found it yet? It shouldn't be? Look for it again! It's evening.
Maybe it would be easier!”
Before he finished speaking, the soldier hurried over: "General! I found a well over there that was emitting a strange light! There seems to be something wrong!"
Li Kai glanced at Lu Bu: "Let's go! Why are you still standing there?"
The body of a palace maid was fished out from the well. There was a box in her arms. After opening it, there was a piece of square jade with a corner missing, and a letter: I have been ordered by heaven to live a long and prosperous life!
"Okay! That's it! Gao Shun and the others have almost finished their work, we should leave! The alliance army will be here soon!" Li Kai put the jade seal in the box and wrapped it with cloth, not caring.
Carrying it, this thing just looks novel, not a big deal;
Lu Bu really didn't have any greed for this kind of thing. He was even more shocked... Li was really able to figure it out? Isn't this a bit too insider?
ps: ps: Regarding the system, I had long said that it was just a cover. Of course, he will still exist in the subsequent plots... Please give me everything!
Part-time writers are so hard, especially those like me who work night shifts!
