Although Lu Bu has been promoted to Marquis Wen, he is still an empty general.He was not allowed to touch the affairs of the Xiliang barracks at all. When necessary, let Lu Bu lead the troops to protect Dong Zhuo when he traveled safely. When not necessary, let him stay at home by himself.

As a result, Lu Bu was happy to be at leisure, spending a rare and good time at home with his wife and children.

In private, Cai Yong came once to thank Lu Bu.If it wasn't for Lu Bu's reminder back then, he wouldn't have seen Dong Zhuo at all, and he couldn't have saved those Taixue students.

Lu Bu chopped off the heads of twenty high school students. It seemed cruel, but in fact he was deliberately delaying time.Otherwise, how could he, a general, do such a thing as beheading himself.

Of course Lu Bu didn't admit it, but Cai Yong knew it well and didn't point it out.

"I heard that Mr. Xi Ce in the general's mansion is especially good at playing the piano. I wonder if the old man has the ear to listen to it?" This is another purpose of Cai Yong's visit to the mansion.

Anyone who is familiar with Cai Yong knows that this old man is not only a great Confucianist, but also proficient in Ci Fu and calligraphy, and is also extremely accomplished in rhythm.It is rumored that there is a paulownia qin named Jiaowei in his mansion. When it is played, it is like the sounds of the world, making people mesmerized and addicted to it.

Lu Bu had never heard of it and did not know whether it was true or not. The only thing that made him curious was where did Cai Yong learn that he could play the piano.

It's just a coincidence that Cai Yong came a step late, and Xi Ce and Guo Jia went out for a walk early in the morning.According to the habit of the two of them, they usually don't come back until sunset or dusk.

"It's okay, I can wait."

Cai Yong's attitude was unexpectedly firm, which made Lu Bu even more curious.Cai Bojie, a famous scholar all over the world, is actually willing to wait for a little-known younger generation, and watching his expression, it seems that he is quite looking forward to it?

Since he was willing to wait, Lu Bu definitely couldn't drive people out, let alone a great Confucianist in the world.He asked his servants to prepare melon and fruit snacks, so that he could serve the old man well.

After waiting for a while, the play still hadn't come back, so Dong Zhuo sent someone first, saying that he got a good painting, and asked Cai Yong to go to the house to taste it.

Cai Yong couldn't shirk, so he had to follow.

Before leaving, he asked Lu Bu to help convey that Xi Ce was welcome to visit Cai's mansion at any time.

As dusk approached, Xi Ce and Guo Jia returned to the mansion carelessly.

Lu Bu talked about the day's affairs with jokes.

After listening, Xie Ce's expression became a little subtle, and there seemed to be sadness hidden in his eyes, and he shook his head slightly.

Guo Jia beside him was very puzzled, and turned his head to look at Xi Ce, "Didn't you say that when you were in Yingchuan Academy, you wanted to play a song with Cai Bojie the most in your life? Now the opportunity to realize your wish is in front of you. , why didn't you go again?"

"I won't play the piano in this life."

Xi Ce laughed, as if talking about a trivial matter.

Guo Jia was taken aback for a moment, and chased after him with some heartache, cursing loudly: "Xi Zhicai, you are a fool!"

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

At the end of the year and the end of the year, instead of being bustling, Luoyang City, the capital of the Great Han Dynasty, became much cooler.

On this day, a strange guest came to Lu's mansion, he said he came from Chenliu, and he had an urgent request to see General Zhenbei.

The servant at the gate reported the matter to the steward, and the steward went to ask for Lu Bu's opinion, and after getting permission, he brought this man into the mansion.

In the reception hall, Lu Bu sat in the central seat, folded his arms, and looked at the middle-aged scribe standing in the hall. After searching in his mind, he had no impression of this person.

"Mao Jie, a humble man, pay my respects to General Zhenbei." The middle-aged scribe signed his name and bowed to Lu Bu.

Lu Bu waved his hand, "Tell me, why are you looking for General Ben?"

Mao Jie didn't go around in circles, and cut straight to the point: "I am dissatisfied with the general, so I came all the way here, but I was ordered by Zhang Miao, the prefect of Chenliu, and wanted to ask General Zhenbei to help rescue King Hongnong."

Cao Cao is still a fugitive who was offered a reward by the court. Just in case, Mao Jie lied that he came under the order of Zhang Miao.

"You want to use the reputation of King Hongnong to attack Dong Zhuo?" A sneer came from beside him.

Hearing this, Mao Jie was startled suddenly, he didn't expect that their plan would be revealed in a word, so he hurriedly looked sideways.Sitting on the lower right hand side is a young man with a white fox face, handsome and with a touch of profligacy.

"Who is your Excellency?"

"Yingchuan Guo Fengxiao." Guo Jia replied indifferently.

Guo Fengxiao?

Mao Jie muttered twice in his heart, obviously he had never heard of such a number one person, but he also remembered this name in his heart.

At this time, another voice sounded in the hall: "Brother Mao Jie, my general is not familiar with Zhang Miao, why should he help him?"

Mao Jie followed the voice, and the thin young man sitting on the left spoke.

This person's appearance is quite different from that of the white fox boy just now, and he belongs to the kind that can never be found when he is thrown into the crowd, and he is completely unobtrusive.

Mao Jie did not answer the joke, but cupped his hands and said to Lu Bu: "General Lu, I believe you are neither blind nor deaf. Dong Zhuo has brought disaster to the country and the people, and has become the target of public criticism for his cruelty and rebellion. As a minister of the Han Dynasty, Also, the late emperor valued him so much that he was supposed to help us fight against the rebels, so why don’t we choose to turn a blind eye and watch the Great Han Dynasty be buried in Dong Zhuo’s hands?”

Snapped!

Lv Bu slapped the table suddenly, interrupted Mao Jie, and sternly reprimanded: "Who are you to send? How dare you slander the grand master of the dynasty and want to instigate this general to rebel. You will be punished. Come on, give it to me." Drag him down and send him to the Ting Wei Mansion for strict trial!"

Chen Wei and Hua Xiong at the door heard the order, strode in, dragged Mao Jie and walked out.

Mao Jie is a scribe, so naturally he can't break free from the constraints of the left and right. Once he enters the Tingwei Mansion, he will never return.

Thinking of this, he will die anyway, so he simply cursed: "Lu Bu, you despicable villain, shameless person, Cao Mengde is really blind, he misjudged you!"

"Wait a minute."

Hearing the three words Cao Mengde, Lu Bu asked Chen and Wei to push Mao Jie back, and Fox asked, "Did Cao Mengde send you here?"

This time Mao Jie didn't lie and admitted it.

"When is Cao Mengde going to raise his troops?" Lu Bu asked seemingly unintentionally.

"This……"

Mao Jie had a troubled expression on his face, this matter is a military secret, so how could he tell Lu Bu about it.

Seeing Mao Jie's melancholy face, Lu Bu waved his hand again, "Since I don't even have a basic sense of cooperation, I don't have anything to say, see off the guests."

When Mao Jie heard this, how could it be possible? Cao Cao failed to accomplish what he had told him, so how could he go back and return to his command.

Moreover, according to what Lu Bu said, it seems that there is a tendency to cooperate. After weighing the pros and cons, Mao Jie replied truthfully: "If things go well, it should be early spring next year."

"How many soldiers and horses have you recruited?"

"Seven thousand steps and rides."

"That's it? It seems that the number of people is still far behind."

"That's why I need the help of the general to rescue King Hongnong, and order the princes of the world to raise troops and attack Dong Zhuo together."

"Hmm~"
