Chapter Fourteen-Three Tiger Generals Come
"Fengxian, don't say that. You and I will be brothers in the future!”Dongfang Jian interrupted before Lu Bu could finish. Lu Zhen was even more delighted to receive Shi Qingcheng's approval. Although she was extremely shy, her clear and beautiful eyes took the initiative to meet Dongfang Jian's.
"Actually, who wouldn't like a kind-hearted, quiet, elegant, and beautiful girl like Zhen 'er?" Dongfang Jian said to Lu Bu. However, this is related to Zhen 'er's happiness in the future. Can I casually agree? Don't worry, Fengxian. I will protect Zhen 'er and the others well and let them be happy forever. Because they are more important than my life!”Hearing these words, Lu Zhen cried tears of joy. She felt that this was her happiest moment.
Lu Bu was even more ecstatic. He couldn't help but kneel down again and say,""My lord, I will not hesitate even if I have to sacrifice my life.”
In fact, the happiest person among them was Dongfang Jian. Just as Tian Feng had said, not only did he obtain Lu Bu, but he also obtained Lu Zhen's heart. It was truly a double blessing!
"Brother Fengxian, please get up. Didn't I say that you don't have to call me Lord in the future?" Dongfang Jian hurriedly stepped forward and said. This makes people feel awkward. In the future, we will call each other brothers.”
Although Lu Bu stood up, he said,""That's true, but etiquette must not be abandoned.”
Suddenly, a thought flashed through Dongfang Jian's mind. "Fengxian, as the saying goes, good things come in pairs! I have another idea. What does Fengxian think?”
"Please speak, my lord." Lu Bu, who was already in a good mood, asked curiously after hearing Dongfang Jian's words.
"Fengxian, I've said it before. Calling me lord is too unfamiliar. The brotherhood between you and I is not measured by who is who's master. Although we are not brothers, we are more like brothers. I think we should become brothers of the opposite sex here. From now on, we'll share our blessings and hardships together. Let the two of us join hands to create history that belongs to us and look down on the world. What does Fengxian think?" Dongfang Jian voiced his thoughts.
After hearing Dongfang Jian's thoughts, Lu Bu stood rooted to the spot. However, the excitement on his handsome face was obvious.
The reason why Dongfang Jian had taken the initiative to become sworn brothers with Lu Bu was not only because he felt that Lu Bu was a brother worthy of his life, but also because there was a deeper meaning! This was because in ancient times, not anyone could casually become sworn brothers with others. They were not as casual as they were now. Brothers would do one thing in front of them and another behind their backs. They were very loyal to each other when they shared blessings. However, when it was really a disaster, how many of them were willing to take the initiative to help? They were afraid that they would avoid it as much as possible!
Society was progressing at a rapid pace, but the friendship between people was getting more and more…
However, although the people in ancient times were relatively ignorant, they paid great attention to their promises. Because they believed in karma. Although it seemed ridiculous, wasn't it a reflection of human morality? At the same time, you must learn to put down your status and take the initiative to make friends. Only then will you have more and more sincere friends around you. Moreover, the effect of doing so would even benefit people for the rest of their lives!
Let's not talk about far away, just take Liu Bei in history as an example. Although Liu Bei was the descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan, by the time Liu Bei arrived, he was no different from an ordinary family. However, the reason why Liu Bei was able to rise so quickly in such a disadvantageous situation was largely due to his talent. However, one should not underestimate Liu Bei's ability to win people's hearts. This was also the key to Liu Bei's rapid rise in the future! Liu Bei had taken a fancy to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's martial arts in the early days, so he put down his so-called status as the uncle of the current emperor Liu Xie and became sworn brothers with them. Thus, he won Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's sincere gratitude in one fell swoop. It was also because the two of them worked hard for Liu Bei in the early days that Liu Bei's later prosperity and foundation were laid. Similarly, Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong had broken through seven entrances and seven exits in Changban and risked their lives to save Ah Dou. However, Liu Bei had thrown Ah Dou to the ground in front of everyone. Everyone, including Zhao Yun, was moved. This made Zhao Yun and the others even more loyal to protect their master in the future. Liu Bei's actions were known to the later generations. There was a saying that Liu Bei threw a child to buy people's hearts!
This was also the reason why Dongfang Jian had gone through so much trouble. Although he had Lu Zhen, this was not enough. He still needed to use friendship to completely lock him down. It was a double insurance and also to completely eliminate all the distance between them. Only then could Dongfang Jian truly let Lu Bu do whatever he wanted without having to worry about anything. The reason was that Lu Bu was too much of a threat to everyone. If they wanted to use him, they had to make him the most loyal person. Dongfang Jian, who had been influenced by a culture that surpassed the present two thousand years, knew the key to this. A good commander needed to have an excellent ability to control his subordinates and tap into everyone's potential to serve him.
Let's cut to the chase.
Tian Feng, who had been standing at the side, also said in a timely manner,"Fengxian, what are you waiting for? This is a good thing!”As a strategist, Tian Feng naturally knew what his lord, Dongfang Jian, was thinking. Even if Dongfang Jian hadn't mentioned it, Tian Feng would have done so. After all, a general like Lu Bu was something that anyone who wanted to conquer the world would want.
"Swoosh!" Lu Bu once again used his actions to express his excitement. He knelt down and said,""My lord, Bu is extremely desperate." Dongfang Jian pulled Zhang Fei and said to Lu Bu,""This is also my sworn brother. Today, we will become sworn brothers again.”
Zhang Fei nodded.
Dongfang Jian walked up to Yan Liang and Wen Chou and said,""Although we are not brothers, we are more like brothers. Today, we shall become sworn brothers.”
The two of them did not expect Dongfang Jian to treat them like this. He said excitedly,"Thank you, my lord."
Dongfang Jian looked at Chu Yan. Before Dongfang Jian could speak, Chu Yan said,""Yan is my lord's subordinate. I don't dare to talk to my lord as a brother.”
Dongfang Jian nodded and patted him on the shoulder.""Zhiping, it's been hard on you."
After saying that, Dongfang Jian looked at everyone with a big laugh and said,""Alright, brothers, let's go to the back garden to announce this to the world.”Seeing that his brother and the person he loved could become sworn brothers, Lu Zhen was extremely happy. He had long forgotten the shyness in his heart and immediately went forward to say,"Brother, Zhen 'er will go and prepare the matters now.”
After everything was ready, they lit incense in the incense burner, took out a jar of good wine, and poured it into each other's wine. They dripped their blood into each other's wine. Dongfang Jian and Lu Bu knelt in front of the altar and raised their wine bowls high."With the heavens as my witness and the earth as my witness, I, Dongfang Jian/Lu Bu/Zhang Fei/Yan Liang/Wen Chou, hereby become sworn brothers of the opposite sex. From now on, we will share happiness and hardship together. I don't ask to be born in the same year and month, but I ask to die in the same year and month!”
Then, they drank the wine in one gulp and smashed their wine bowls into pieces. Everyone reported their ages. Among them, Dongfang Jian was the eldest, followed by Lu Bu, Zhang Fei, Yan Liang, and Wen Chou. The four of them knelt down and kowtowed to their big brother. Dongfang Jian helped everyone up and hugged each other tightly, marking the official announcement of this invincible combination that shocked the world and made all the opponents tremble in fear.
Just like that, Dongfang Jian and the others stayed in Lu Bu's house. On one hand, they were waiting for news from the outside world. On the other hand, their relationship with Lu Zhen was rapidly warming up. Other than the fact that he had not broken through the final boundary with Lu Zhen, Dongfang Jian had done almost everything he could do. He almost had the feeling of being too happy to think about home. Furthermore, Zhang Fei and the other martial arts fanatics had finally met a good opponent, so how could they let him go so easily? It could be said that they pulled Lu Bu along to compete every day, and as a result, their martial arts skills improved very quickly. Even if the three of them joined forces, Lu Bu was no match for them.
On this day, Dongfang Jian had just returned from watching them practice martial arts at the martial arts field. Before he could drink the tea that Lu Zhen had prepared, he heard Lu Bu shout from outside the door,""Big brother, I'm back." As he spoke, Lu Bu quickly walked into the hall.
"Fengxian, rest for a while. Come, have a sip of Zhen 'er's good tea.”Dongfang Jian told Lu Bu to rest.
Lu Bu didn't stand on ceremony and picked up his teacup to drink. He then smiled and said,""Sister, it seems like you've tasted love. Even the water is sweeter than before.”
After Lu Zhen, who was standing at the side, heard this, her peerless face was immediately filled with a faint blush. She said angrily,"Brother! You're teasing Zhen 'er again."
"Oh right, Fengxian has been out for the past few days. How is the current situation in the world developing?”Dongfang Jian asked.
It turned out that Lu Bu had been following Dongfang Jian's instructions to gather information on the development of the world. Since history had changed, Dongfang Jian had to confirm the current situation of the world again so that he could be absolutely sure and have a clearer grasp of the development of the current situation.
"Big brother, there are rumors going around that you, the great eastern benefactor who returned from overseas, have a huge treasure on you. It's the national treasure of another country. Once this treasure was lost, the country would be destroyed. Whoever possessed this treasure would control the world and become the master of the world. Now, all the forces are looking for you. Even the emperor has sent several troops to look for you. In addition, Great General He Jin, Shi Changshi, Jizhou Governor Han Fu, Bingzhou Governor Ding Yuan, Youzhou Governor Liu Yan, and so on are all looking for you. They all want to see the treasures you brought. In addition, according to the rumors outside, the emperor had already said that if the treasure was real, no matter who could bring the treasure into the capital, they would agree to the conditions. It can be said that all the dukes in the world are looking for you, and some even want to kill you.”Lu Bu said.
Dongfang Jian said to Tian Feng, who had come in when Lu Bu had returned,""Yuan Hao, things are as you and I expected. It seems that there are still many people in the world who want to be the emperor.”
Tian Feng said," That's nothing. Those with foresight can already see that the Great Han Dynasty's fate is drawing near. Those with some strength want to dream of splitting the land and sealing the borders." We didn't release that much at all. It seems that someone is adding fuel to the fire behind the scenes. My lord, it seems that we should start the next plan.”
Dongfang Jian nodded. Just as he was about to speak, he heard someone shouting outside the door,""Fengxian, is Fengxian at home? We're here to see you."
" Brother," Lu Bu said to Dongfang Jian," they are my good friends. I'll go out and welcome them."”
"Since he's your friend, we should get to know each other," Dongfang Jian said. Let's go together. "After saying that, he followed Lu Bu out.
Dongfang Jian saw three people walking toward them. The three of them were young. The young man on the left had an outstanding appearance. He had a delicate and refined face, a face like purple jade, and bright eyes. He wore a green robe. The man on the right had a fair face and a handsome face. The man in the middle had slightly dark skin, thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a burly figure. Dongfang Jian looked at the three of them and suddenly wondered if it was them.
