Lu Bu pondered for a moment, thought for a while, and gave an answer: "This matter cannot be rushed. It can't be completed in a short while, and it needs to be discussed in the long run. During this period of time, I will trouble you to stay in the mansion temporarily. After clearing up the situation, we will make rescue plans."

Mao Jie couldn't think of a better way for a while, so he could only nod in response.

Lu Bu called the steward and asked him to arrange a room for Mao Jie to live in. He also ordered Chen Wei to let people keep an eye on Mao Jie and not allow him to take a step out of the house.

After Mao Jie followed the steward, he looked at Lu Bu with a solemn face, "General, do you really want to help them save King Hongnong? This is extremely risky. If it is discovered, it is not a joke."

Guo Jia on the other side also agreed with this: "Xi Zhicai is right, even if you rescue King Hongnong, it will not do you any good. At that time, you may not be able to eat mutton, and you will be in trouble." '."

"If I don't save him, I will be the one who kills him in the future."

Lu Bu sighed, no matter what, the late Emperor Liu Hong had been kind to him.If he killed his son in the future, regardless of his reputation, it would be a bit ungrateful in terms of moral conscience.

Cao Cao and others raised troops under the banner of King Hongnong, and with Dong Zhuo's irritable temper, they would definitely send someone to kill Liu Bian first.So here comes the question, who should be sent to deal with such insidious and reputation-damaging matters?

Li Ru is not a good man and a believer in women, and he will not blink his eyes when killing people.He still doesn't believe in Lu Bu, so this matter will most likely fall on Lu Bu.

Lu Bu also knew very well that killing the imperial student already made him infamous, and if he killed Hongnong King Liu Bian, the scholars all over the world would have to scold him with jumping feet.

Therefore, even if King Hongnong is not handed over to Cao Cao and the others, he must be rescued first.

Lu Bu had already made up his mind, and it was hard to say anything more about the play, so he could only think of a way, and figure out how to rescue him.

In the evening, after dinner, in Lu Bu's study.

The candlelight illuminated the room brightly, and a young figure stood respectfully in front of Lu Bu's desk.

"Do you know the palace well?"

Lu Bu flipped through the bamboo slips in his hand, without looking up at the person in front of him, just talking lightly.

"Very familiar." The former young eunuch is now a domestic slave of the Lu Mansion.

"If you want to rescue King Hongnong, how sure are you?"

"Hard to say."

His name was 'Qing Liao', and he replied in a low voice: "Since the death of the adoptive father, the power of the palace has been purged, and almost all of our party members have lost contact."

"What if someone is an internal response?" Lu Bu added, looking at the words on the bamboo slips.

"It's probably only [-]% sure." Qing Liao didn't dare to trust, after all, it was an important place in the palace, and the guards were extremely strict, not to mention that the person Lu Bu wanted to save was the emperor's elder brother.

One can imagine how difficult it is.

"Okay, you go down."

Lu Bu waved his hand, and soon he was the only one left in the study.

In this matter, in addition to full cooperation, the consent of the parties must be obtained.

If Liu Bian doesn't cooperate, even if they try their best, they won't be able to save him.

"It seems that I have to take time to find an opportunity to go to the palace to meet that Hongnong King."

Lu Bu muttered to himself, closed the bamboo slip in his hand, blew out the candle, and walked out of the study.

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

Two days later, Lu Bu went to the palace, met the emperor Liu Xie, and also met Hongnong King Liu Bian.

In the side hall, Lu Bu whispered to them the rescue plan.

After hearing this, the two of them couldn't believe it, and were so shocked that they couldn't speak for a long time.

After a long time, the emperor came back to his senses, and there was a trace of anxiety in his immature voice: "Lu Qing, can I trust you?"

Lv Bu got up from his seat, walked into the hall, bowed and cupped his hands: "I am deeply favored by the late emperor, and I dare not forget it for a day. Attaching to Dong Zhuo now is just an expedient measure. When I find an opportunity in the future, I will definitely eradicate treacherous ministers for your majesty." , to help the great Han community."

After all, the emperor was young, so he didn't know whether to trust Lu Bu or not.On the other hand, Hongnong King Liu Bian was quite decisive. He remembered what Liu Hong had said before, and decided to take a gamble and choose to believe in Lu Bu.

"What's General Lu's plan, why don't you tell me first, and I will be able to cooperate with the general at that time." Liu Bian spoke very calmly, as if he was a different person compared to the timid eldest prince before.

After experiencing despair, people either fall into a slump and never get up again; or they soar to the sky and become reborn.

Lu Bu has a deep understanding of this, and perhaps abolishing the emperor may not be a bad thing for Liu Bian.

"In a few days, it will be the tenth birthday of Dong Zhuo's granddaughter." Lu Bu said, "Dong Zhuo loves his granddaughter very much, and he will definitely hold a big banquet in the Xiangguo's mansion. At that time, it will be our chance. The minister has privately The Cui family, the Yang family, and Weiwei Zhang Wen have been united as internal and external support. I will try my best to ensure that this operation is foolproof."

On the second day after Mao Jie came, Lu Bu visited the Yang family and met with Yang Ting's father, Yang Biao, the current head of the Yang family.

Since the death of the old Taiwei, the Yang family has always kept a low profile. When Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, the Yang family also maintained an attitude of inaction, neither contradicting Dong Zhuo nor helping the tyrant.

In the secret room, Lu Bu talked with Yang Biao for nearly two hours, and when they left.The Patriarch of the Yang family finally believed in Lu Bu, and made an agreement with him for three chapters.

After the Yang family is settled, the Cui family will be handed over to Xie Ce.

There was Cui Xu in Cui's mansion who helped to speak, and Cui Lie was a veteran loyal to the Han Dynasty, so he could not understand Dong Zhuo's actions for a long time. When he learned that he wanted to rescue King Hongnong, he quickly agreed and expressed his willingness to help .

As for Wei Wei Zhang Wen, it was purely an unexpected gain.

After hearing Lu Bu's plan, the emperor was very moved, and begged in a low voice: "Lu Qing, can you take me away with you? I don't want to stay in the palace, I want to stay with the emperor."

It turns out that the emperor has orders, and the courtiers should obey them.

But in the face of Liu Xie's request, Lu Bu could not agree.

Since Liu Bian was abolished from the throne, almost no one paid attention to him.But Liu Xie is different. Even though he is a puppet manipulated by Dong Zhuo, he is also the emperor of the Han Dynasty. Every move he makes, even if he casually walks around the palace twice, there will be countless pairs of eyes staring at him openly and secretly. with.

The possibility of stealing him out of the palace is almost zero.

Lu Bu would not take such a risk.

Hearing Lu Bu's refusal, the emperor's hopeful eyes dimmed, and his expression was depressed.Liu Bian next to him knelt down and comforted his younger brother: "Don't be sad, when Dong Zhuo is driven away, my brother will naturally come back to accompany you."

"Will you really come back?" Hope rekindled in the eyes of the emperor.

Liu Bian gave an 'hmm' and nodded heavily: "Really."

When Lu Bu left, he repeatedly told him not to tell anyone about this matter.Otherwise, there would be more than one or two people involved.

Liu Bian is old, so he naturally understands these principles.Although Liu Xie was only six years old, he knew the seriousness of the matter and promised Lu Bu that he would keep his mouth shut.

All is ready except for the opportunity.

On the 27th day of the twelfth lunar month, Dong Bai's tenth birthday, Xiangguo's mansion was full of guests, laughing and laughing.

At the same time, another major event was in full swing.
