There are gentlemen in the Three Kingdoms

After a long while, the pottery merchant suddenly said: "Marquis Wen, why don't we turn over the page just now and talk about it again?"

Lu Bu rolled his eyes and said, "If you have something to say, just say it!"

The potter said indifferently: "In today's world, the princes are all destroyed, and the pattern of forces of all parties has basically been formed. However, you, Marquis Wen, only have a small-sized land like Jiujiang County. How can you do it in this world?" A foothold? Maybe you can still be at ease in the land of Jiujiang, but can you be happy in this county forever? Now Tao has helped Emperor Han win the land of six states in the world, half of the world is under his control, Marquis Wen At this time, leading the people to surrender to the imperial court is still enough to be valued by the imperial court. After the world is settled and Cao Cao and Liu Biao are all destroyed, has Wen Hou ever thought that when you surrendered to the imperial court, the imperial court would still pay attention to you, a mere Jiujiang? Is it a tiny place and your tens of thousands of Bingzhou army?"

After the potter finished speaking, Lu Bu couldn't help bowing his head in thought.

How could he not understand this truth.

Pottery merchants pacified Hebei, supported the emperor, hegemony has been achieved, and his own Jiujiang County is close to his jurisdiction. These years, pottery merchants have been helping the Bingzhou army, so that they can survive.

Not to mention that it was the potter who sent troops to Jiujiang County, as long as he strangled the supply to the Bingzhou Army now, it would be enough for the Bingzhou Army to drink a pot.

Although the reason is clear, Lu Bu is unwilling to surrender in such a dry manner.

Anyway, I am independent in Jiujiang, and I am also a carefree person. If I really lead the crowd to join the potters, and use the potters' means to gradually weaken and annex my military power, I am afraid it will not take long. At that time, He is a polished general, everything, even life, will be in the opponent's hands.

Other things are fine, but Lu Bu really can't accept that his life is in the hands of others.

unless……

But Lu Bu stood up, cupped his hands to the potter, and said, "The Prime Minister's words made Lu Mou suddenly understand. The Prime Minister is very kind, and for the sake of Lu Mou's wealth, Lu Bu shouldn't refuse, but there is only one thing, which will only make you feel angry. Lu can't sleep at night and can't eat well, so I ask the Prime Minister to make a decision for me."

The potter raised his eyebrows and said, "What's the matter that Marquis Wen is worried about?"

"The cunning rabbit dies, the lackey cooks, the birds die, and the good bow is hidden...People in the world only see the glory of Han Xin worshiping the general, but they don't see his dying cup."

The potter took a deep breath: "I'll promise Wenhou about this, I'm afraid Wenhou won't believe it, so tell me, what do you want?"

Lu Bu said in a low voice: "The Prime Minister came to me with a purpose today, and I also came to the Prime Minister with a purpose. The Prime Minister wants me to promise you, so you must promise me today!"

Lu Bu's idea was right.

You married my daughter, and I am your father-in-law!

How dare you kill your father-in-law?

The potter stood up and waved at Lu Bu.

Lu Bu immediately went to the potter's side.

But the pottery merchant whispered to prevent others from hearing: "I am also the prime minister at any rate, it is not impossible for your daughter to marry me, but this dowry?"

Lu Bu gritted his teeth: "What do you mean? I gave you a girl who is as beautiful as a flower, and you want me to give you back?"

"It's your own pleasure. If you don't do it, we'll break it up now!"

"All right, all right, stop talking nonsense! Whatever you want, I'll give it to you!"

"Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry, and your generals!"

"My daughter is given to you. We will be a family in the future. Of course, these are all yours...then what can I get?"

"You are already a county lord, and there is not much room for the title? At most, I will give you a gold medal."

Lu Bu hesitated for a moment: "Is it okay to go up further?"

"I'll just let you be the prime minister."

"That's okay..."

"Forget it, I can't afford to marry your daughter, bye."

"Don't! Don't! I'm just kidding with you... I just want to hold Jinwu, but I still want the fertile land and mansion in Jinling! You have to help me arrange it!"

"make a deal!"

Everyone watched these two people muttering together, their voices were very low, but they couldn't hear what they were saying.

Suddenly, Lu Bu laughed out loud.

He grabbed the potter's hand and said: "Lv has lived to this age, to be able to get such a good son-in-law, it is really a miracle from heaven, and I will have no regrets in this life!"

The pottery merchant also said with emotion: "This is the first time I have met such a wise and powerful old man who is not superstitious about cultivating immortals... I am very comforted."

"My son-in-law, I heard that you already have two wives in your family, and there are still a few waiting in line to become wives... If my daughter goes, will she..."

The pottery merchant is a smart person, and he saw Lu Bu's worry at a glance, he hurriedly said with a smile: "Father-in-law, don't worry, no matter what kind of woman she is, as long as she enters the Tao's house, she will only be the wife of my pottery merchant." That’s all, there is absolutely no such thing as favoritism.”

After hearing this, Lu Bu couldn't help feeling relieved: "My son-in-law, you are really a righteous man!"

After finishing speaking, he turned his head to Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Song Xian and the others and said, "Why don't you come and see the lord!"

Zhang Liao and the others looked at each other in astonishment. Although they didn't understand why, they followed Lu Bu's order and bowed to the potter in unison, "I have seen you, my lord!"

"You're welcome, you're welcome." The potter looked at Zhang Liao and Gao Shun, and nodded in satisfaction: "Father-in-law, you are a righteous person...I am very satisfied with this dowry."

"..."

Chapter 8 and One

After subduing Lu Bu, the potters still have one more important thing to solve, and that is to guard the Sun family in Lujiang County.

Like Lu Bu, the Sun family was also a vassal of the pottery merchant, but the pottery merchant had certain confidence to make Lu Bu surrender, but he did not have the confidence to let Sun Ce surrender.

Fundamentally speaking, Lu Bu's age and ambition have almost exhausted, and he is not from a noble family at his age, so he will naturally give up his ideals and ambitions after the general situation of the world becomes clear.

But Sun Ce is different. His father was the prefect of Changsha in the past, and he also claimed to be Sun Wu, and he has always had great ambitions in his heart.

Back then, Sun Ce treated himself as a vassal. To a certain extent, it could be said to be a tactic to slow down the army. As for how long this delay can last, it is not easy to say.

After the pottery merchant accepted the surrender of Lu Bu's soldiers, he followed the rules to welcome Lu Lingqi into the army. While handling this matter, he also wanted to test the attitude of his subordinates, the Sun family, more or less.

He first issued a letter inviting Sun Ce to come to Pengcheng to attend his wedding to marry Lu Lingqi on a public basis, and then imitated Xiaoqiao's notes and wrote a letter to Zhou Yu. Come to Pengcheng and meet Zhou Yu.

Over the years, Tao Shang has been pen pals with Zhou Yu from time to time, of course as Xiaoqiao.

If Zhou Yu knew that his pen pal was a man, he wouldn't be crazy.

But Tao Shang also thought that Zhou Yu might also use Xiaoqiao as a pen pal to observe his movements from time to time, or set up a ecstasy array for himself.

In the political struggle between forces, no means and tricks can be used too much.

The marriage between Lu Bu and Dow undoubtedly caused a disturbance in the Sun family.

Sun Ce called Zhou Yu, Lu Meng, Lu Fan, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and others to discuss the matter.

"The marriage between the potter and Lu Bu's daughter, judging from the situation, I'm afraid that Lu Bu has completely surrendered to the potter. To a certain extent, the marriage may be just a means for Lu Bu to surrender and protect himself."
