Chapter 990 Lu Fengxian Admits His Mother
"Feng Xiao, do you think Min Chun accepted the white horse?"
Shang Ji and Guo Jia rode side by side, chatting as they walked slowly.
"My subordinates speculate that it should be accepted. According to my subordinates' observations, this Min Chun's favorite thing is a good horse. That white horse is a high-quality dragon horse, and it is one of the best horses in our Pingzhou. I heard that After the lord gave it to Min Chun, many generals sighed with regret!" Guo Jia said with a smile.
"I hope so, otherwise I'd be wasting a BMW!"
Shang Ji also sighed rather painfully.
Pingzhou controls the grassland and has the most abundant war horse resources in the world, but even so, dragon-cold-level war horses are hard to come by. After such a long period of accumulation, there are only six dragon-cold horses in Shang Ji's hands that can be distributed freely!
Shang Ji hesitated for a long time before making the decision to send Min Chun a dragon-level horse.
Although Min Chun is only an A-level military general, he has a very high influence in Jizhou. He is currently Han Fu's most trusted subordinate, taking over the post of Jizhou Biejia from Ju. Of course, Shang Ji didn't expect a war horse to buy Min Chun, even if the horse was a dragon colt.
In history, Min Chun was regarded as one of Han Fu's most loyal subordinates, and died because of his power over Yuan Shao.
However, don't forget how Jushou quit Jizhou's core power circle. Han Fu is suspicious and only moderate. He can serve as a governor of the state in peacetime, but he is far from qualified in troubled times.
The matter of Shang Ji's gift of horses is not a secret, and sooner or later it will reach Han Fu's ears. Shang Ji doesn't have too many demands, as long as he can plant a seed of suspicion in Han Fu's heart, that's enough!
"My lord, General Fenwei Lu Bu's subordinate General Zhang Liao is here to pay my respects!"
When Shang Ji and Guo Jia were talking about Min Chun, a school captain suddenly came to report.
"Oh? General Wen Yuan is here, please hurry up!"
After leaving Jizhou, you will naturally arrive at Bingzhou. According to the covenant, Bingzhou Mu (self-reliant) Lu Bu has the right to send troops to assist the Shangji army in marching.
It's just that the relationship between Shang Ji and Lv Bu is far closer than that of Han Fu. Naturally, Lu Bu would not deploy heavy troops along the way to guard Shang Ji like Han Fu did. He only sent Zhang Liao to lead a small number of troops to meet him.
"Last general Zhang Liao, pay respects to General Zuo!"
"Hahaha, General Wen Yuan is free of courtesy, long time no see, General Wen Yuan's demeanor is even better than before!"
"Thanks to the general, I have made some progress. Compared with General Zuo and other generals, I am far behind. The general laughed!"
Shang Ji could tell at a glance that Zhang Liao's strength at this time had grown a lot compared to when he first met in the Guozhan Continent. After looking into it, Shang Ji discovered that Zhang Liao had already stepped into the palace of heaven-level generals and became a real top-notch general. General!
This also reminded Shang Ji that not only the Pingzhou Army is making progress, but other forces are also growing. Back then, during the Battle of the Yellow Turbans, Zhang Liao barely made it to the prefecture-level military generals, and he was promoted to the heavenly-level generals in just a few years.
"My lord wanted to meet General Zuo in person, but Shangjun was newly established, and Bingzhou was adjacent to Sanfu, so he needed to be on guard against the bandits at all times, and he really had no time to get away. General Zuo please forgive me!"
Zhang Liao explained to Shang Ji with an apologetic face.
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. With the relationship between the general and Fengxian, how can I use these vain rituals? I don't know where Fengxian is at this time? If it's convenient, I would like to go to Jinyang to pay homage to Duke Lu!"
Zhang Liao obviously hesitated for a while, but finally nodded and said: "Of course, but you know, General, that some people in Bingzhou still misunderstand you. For the sake of safety, I hope that General Zuo will not lead too many troops, and try not to overdo it." Make it public so as not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings."
"Of course, the general will bring two thousand personal guards, and the rest of the army will continue to go to Suanzao according to the established route."
"Thank you General Zuo for your understanding."
Zhang Liao said gratefully.
The princes all over the world said that Lu Zhi was killed by Dong Zhuo, but this does not mean that the Bingzhou Army also recognized this statement.
A considerable number of people still believe that the murderer is Shang Ji.
Although Lu Bu accepted Lu Zhi's inheritance, he couldn't change his thinking.
If this is the time for Shang Ji to lead the big unit to Jinyang to show off his might, it is impossible to guarantee that some generals of the Bingzhou Army will directly attack Shang Ji with their brains hot.
After Zhang Liao's permission, Shang Ji led two thousand guards and a few generals to Jinyang, while the main force continued to march along the original route under the temporary command of Su Huan.
Shang Ji and his party marched lightly and arrived in Jinyang that night.
Lu Bu greeted Shang Ji in person, and then a group of people sneaked into the city at night, and accompanied by Lu Bu, they went to Lu's house to pay homage.
In order not to irritate Lu's family, Shang Ji did not disclose his identity, but only said that he admired Lu Gong's loyalty and came to worship when passing by Jinyang.
During the period, Lu Zhi's family did not suspect that the princes would regard the living Lu Zhi as a potential opponent, and even used some dirty means to restrict Lu Zhi, but the dead Lu Zhi was no threat, and was touted as a saint by the princes of.
In response to that sentence, the living are not gods, and the gods are not alive!
Looking at Lu Zhi's spiritual position, Shang Ji's emotions were quite complicated.
Lu Zhi was loyal as a big man, and his moral integrity made Shang Ji admire him, but Shang Ji was already a vassal, and he was inherently opposed to this loyal minister in his position.
After Lu Zhi's death, why didn't Shang Ji secretly rejoice?
A group of people came and went in a hurry, and after an hour, Shang Ji and others quietly left Jinyang City again in the dark.
After Shang Ji and his party left, a white-haired old woman came out with the help of a maid, and Lu Bu who was still in the Lu Mansion hurried forward, helped the old man up and said, "My lord, why did you come out? It's cold, be careful not to hurt yourself!"
This old woman is the head of the Lu family and also Lu Bu's mother, to be precise, Lu Bu's adoptive mother.
Well, Lu Bu Lufeng first disregarded his godfather, and changed to his godmother!
After Lu Zhi's death, legally speaking, the best heir to the Bingzhou Army should be Lu Zhi's son, but Lu Zhi's eldest son and second son died young, and the youngest son was just six years old. How could they succeed to the throne under such circumstances?
Under various competitions, Lu Bu inherited Lu Zhi's legacy.
After settling in Jinyang, under the suggestion of Chen Gong, the first thing Lu Bu did was to visit Lu Zhi's mother in Lu's mansion, and serve the old lady as a nephew.
Although Lu Zhi died, his influence is still there. Lu Zhi's old generals naturally respected Lu Mu very much. Seeing that Lu Bu treated Lu Mu very well, they all returned their hearts.
Afterwards, Lu Bu struck while the iron was hot, and directly recognized Lu Mu as his adoptive mother. Lu Mu agreed after thinking about it for a while, and just like that, our Lu Bu suddenly had an extra mother!
Although the way was a bit wild, the effect was very good, and Lu Bu's rule over Bingzhou was immediately stabilized a lot.
"My son, who is it that worshiped your elder brother just now?"
"My lord, these are a few righteous men who participated in the bid for Dong. I have heard about my elder brother's loyalty. I passed by Jinyang to pay my respects."
The tall and burly Lu Bu bent over to support Lu Mu, and said in a low voice.
Mother Lu nodded, and after about a minute or two, Mother Lu suddenly said, "The masked man behind General Zuo is Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong?"
"what?"
Lu Bu was stunned for a moment, and then quickly said: "My lord, you are joking, why is Zhao Yun here?"
The old lady sighed, patted Lu Bu's hand and said, "Bu'er, your bravery is unparalleled in the world, but the city is too shallow, and even a poor old woman like me can't hide it from you. Don't do this in the future. You need to ask the public more often if you have any problems. Please ask for advice, sir!"
Lu Bu groaned a few times, his face flushed red, he didn't know what to say.
Immediately afterwards, the old lady smiled: "Okay, I'm getting old, and I'm still blind. Although I don't know who murdered Zhi'er, it must not be that Shang Pingzhou!"
"Your Majesty is wise!"
After talking for a long time, Lu Bu finally choked out such a sentence.
