After listening patiently, Lu Bu asked with a smile, "Your name is Zhao Song?"
Zhao Song nodded.
"Coincidentally, when I came to Hanzhong to pass Yumuling, I met your elder brother Zhao Ju. He recommended you to me and said that you are unparalleled in martial arts."
Lu Bu laughed, because Yumu Ridge was the first checkpoint to enter Hanzhong, so he remembered it clearly.
No wonder Marquis Wen came to rescue me, it turned out that my elder brother had recommended me in front of him.
Zhao Song understood in an instant, and at the same time said modestly: "It's just furry kung fu, it can't compare to Wen Hou, who is good at fighting Wushuang."
"What, do you have the intention to serve under my command?" Lu Bu had long since thought of subduing him, and he didn't go around in circles, and got straight to the point.
Zhao Song's martial arts is not bad, enough to rank in the top five under his command.
"Thank you, Marquis Wen, for your kindness. It's just that the villain still has a wish to fulfill, so please forgive me for not being able to follow my orders." Zhao Song obviously had a hint of emotion on his face, but he still declined Lu Bu's proposal politely.
Lu Bu could see what he was thinking, and said casually, "Kill Zhang Xiu?"
Zhao Song did not hide anything from Lu Bu, and nodded.Su Gu owed him a great favor, if he didn't kill Zhang Xiu, even if he went to hell, he would have no face to face Su Gu.
Lu Bu no longer insisted, and said "recover well".
Then got up and left the house.
In mid-April, a dark and windy night.
Zhang Lu invited Zhang Xiu to drink in the tent, took the opportunity to attack and kill Zhang Xiu during the banquet, and used thunder to control the soldiers under his command, and turned it into his own use.
The next day, to show his sincerity, Zhang Lu personally brought Zhang Xiu's head into the city to meet Lu Bu and expressed his willingness to surrender.
Lu Bu ordered the head to be sent to Zhao Song for him to dispose of.
In the hall of the county mansion, Lu Bu sat high, looked at Zhang Lu who was trembling in the hall, and said with a smile on his face: "Zhang Xiu disobeyed this general, and he deserves to die. General Zhang's ability to kill this thief is really a great achievement. Come on, think about it." What a reward."
A look of joy flashed in Zhang Lu's eyes, but on the surface he looked normal, according to what Chen Gong taught him that day, he clasped his fists and said: "I don't dare to claim credit for my humble position, I just want to stay under Marquis Wen's tent to serve my life, my wish is enough. "
"Aren't you afraid that Liu Yan will trouble you or threaten your family?" Lu Bu asked with a half-smile after taking a sip of cold water.
"Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety can't be both, and a humble job is willing to serve the country with loyalty!" Zhang Lu said firmly, as if he was full of righteousness, but he had his own little calculation in his heart.
With the two big backers of Lu Bu and the imperial court, he is not afraid of Liu Yan who lives in Sichuan and Shu.As for his family members, he had already sent people to their former residence and secretly brought them to Hanzhong.
When Liu Yan knows the news of his rebellion, it is estimated that the day lily will be cold.
"General Zhang, get up."
Lu Bu asked the kneeling Zhang Lu to stand up, and said calmly, "Since you are willing to serve for this general, I can't treat you badly. From today on, you will be the governor of Hanzhong County. When I return to Chang'an, I will formally report to you. The imperial court plays the table."
Hearing this, Zhang Lu was overjoyed and wished he could yell out immediately.
"Thank you Marquis Wen for your kindness!"
He stood up and loudly expressed his loyalty: "In this humble job, only Wenhou is the leader!"
It was Lu Bu who was talking about, not the court.
Chapter Five and Two
In mid-May, Lu Bu led his army back to Chang'an.
Before he left, he left Hua Xiong in Hanzhong, not because he didn't trust Zhang Lu, but because Zhang Lu's generals were too weak to be able to take out anyone who could control the situation.
In addition, Lu Bu also played a lot of dark chess in Hanzhong to prevent Zhang Lu from stealing and arrogating himself.
As Xi Ce said in the past, you have to be suspicious when you employ people, and you have to use people who are suspicious.
Zhao Song stayed in Hanzhong to recuperate, he suffered a severe injury that day, he injured all the tendons, and it was difficult to recover within five or six months.
After Lu Bu let him recover, he came to Chang'an to pay his respects.
Zhang Lu took the county officials, big and small, and stood outside the city gate, watching Lu Bu go away.
Looking at the back that was gradually disappearing from sight, Zhang Lu's eyes were solemn and cautious like never before.
During this period, Zhang Lu asked his mother to charm Lu Bu, but the result was naturally dismal.
His mother is in her early forties this year, she is good at taking care of herself, she has a small face, she looks only about [-], and she has a mature woman's coquettish attitude all over her body, which makes people feel itchy.
Even that old bastard Liu Yan couldn't hold back, and became the guest of his mother, but unexpectedly lost his hand at Lu Bu.
Apart from his superficial title of general, Zhang Lu is still a celestial master of Wudoumi Taoism, claiming to be a master.Those who come to learn Taoism are called "ghost soldiers" at the beginning, and they are called "jiujiu" after they have believed in the way.
This branch of Taoism is quite influential in Sichuan and Sichuan.
His mother is also a ghost, and travels to and from Liu Yan's house in Yizhou.Zhang Lu gained trust through his mother's relationship with Liu Yan and took up an important position.
Now that he is under Lu Bu's command, he naturally has the intention of repeating the old tricks, trying to trick Lu Bu into becoming a follower of the Wudoumi Taoism, so that he can be at his mercy.
As a result, I miscalculated.
A few days after Lu Bu left with his army, Liu Yan, Mu of Yizhou, sent an envoy.
The envoy's name is Zhang Su, and he looks stalwart. He is a descendant of the Zhang family of the Dashi family in Yizhou.
He brought a letter from Liu Yan, saying that Liu Yan not only did not blame him for killing Zhang Xiu, but also asked him to be the governor of Guanghan County, and proclaimed him to the court as the general of Zhennan.
Before doing it differently, Zhang Lu would definitely be grinning from ear to ear.
But now, he is not a fool, he will not believe such words to coax children.
He didn't turn back when he opened his bow. Even if he went back and took the position of Guanghan County Sheriff, Liu Yan would try his best to charge him with crimes and put him in jail.
Zhang Lu couldn't understand what kind of person Liu Yan was. He was a narrow-minded person and a complete hypocrite.
Thinking this way in his heart, Zhang Lu's face was still very polite, after all, there was no need to tear up his face with Liu Yan.In the future, we will part ways, you will walk your sunny path, and I will cross my single-plank bridge.
"Bie Zhang, I also miss Mr. Liu Shijun. However, now that he is appointed by the court to act as the acting governor of Hanzhong, Lu dare not neglect in the slightest. In addition, he is bound up with official duties, and he really cannot get away. Please go back and tell me the truth Mr. Liu, after Zhang has finished handling the affairs of the county, he will definitely go back and thank you face to face."
Zhang Lu declined Zhang Su politely, and did not accept the position of Guanghan prefect.
Zhang Su suddenly became angry. He could not see Zhang Lu, a villain who relied on a woman for his position, let alone that woman was his mother.
He stood there, and said contemptuously: "General Zhang, do you think that with Lu Bu as the backing, you can sit firmly in Hanzhong? In fact, in his eyes, you are just a dog that can be abandoned at any time. How can you be like Liu Shijun?" Generous and loving, treat you well..."
"Will you be nice to me?"
Zhang Lu's eyes were gloomy, Jie Jie laughed: "Then please go back and tell Liu Yan, I, Zhang Lu...
