Daniu had returned from Chang 'an? Lu Guan got up from the bed, put on some clothes and walked out of the bedroom. He saw Da Niu standing respectfully in the room.
Lu Guan looked at Da Niu and was very happy. After this journey, Da Niu had seen the world and his temperament had matured a lot.
Lu Guan patted Da Niu's shoulder and asked him to sit down."Daniu, how did it go?”
Da Niu took out a letter." Elder Qiao was very happy when he saw the two madams 'handwritten letters. He sent his old butler, Qiao Fu, to visit the two madams. Later, when we left, another person came back with us. It was said that he was Lord Li Ru's trusted aide.”
Lu Guan jumped to his feet and thought, Li Ru's trusted aide?!
Li Ru was often depicted in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms comics as a scoundrel. This person was Dong Zhuo's son-in-law, Dong Zhuo's most trusted advisor.
Dong Zhuo actually only had two strategists under him, one was Li Ru and the other was Jia Xu. In Lu Guan's era, Jia Xu's reputation hadn't risen yet, and Li Ru was the only mastermind. Eighteen vassals besieged Dong Zhuo, and Li Ru alone assisted Dong Zhuo in winning the battle.
If Dong Zhuo had listened to Li Ru's advice, Diao Chan would not have been able to succeed in the chain scheme that Wang Yun, Lu Bu, and Diao Chan had used.
Such a strategist must have an intelligence of more than 90.
Lu Guan put his hands behind his back and fell into deep thought. When he came back to his senses, Da Niu looked at him with admiration."Daniu, what's wrong?"
Da Niu bowed very obsequiously." I feel that Your Majesty is very imposing. I want to kneel down and kowtow the moment I see you.”
Lu Guan was proud of himself, thinking that he had a Charm of 60 points and was wearing the Imperial Jade Seal. He could release all kinds of Charm skills at the same time.
Lu Guan changed into formal clothes and took Xiao Qiao and Xiao Jia to the living room of the government office. They saw an old butler in his fifties and a man in his thirties drinking tea.
Seeing Lu Guan come in, the old housekeeper stood up in fear.""General Lu, ladies, Qiao Fu greets you!”
Lu Guan nodded and smiled." You're welcome. We're all family. Sit down and talk slowly."”
Qiao Fu wiped off his cold sweat and thought to himself,'Thank goodness we're family. I've been frightened by your Yellow Turban bandits' prestige along the way.'
Seeing Lu Guan glance at another customer, Qiao Fu quickly introduced him,""This is Mister Du Yuan, the secretary of the doctor, Li Ru. I heard that General Lu is quite famous in the Kuaiji area, so Lord Li specially sent Mister Du Yuan to meet the general and discuss some important matters.”
Du Yuan hurriedly stood up and saluted. Before arriving in Kuaiji, he had been a bit arrogant as a petty official in Chang 'an. On the way, he had heard that Lu Guan was very powerful. After meeting him, he felt that Lu Guan had a temperament that was superior to him, so he was very polite to Lu Guan.
Du Yuan also took out a letter and handed it to Lu Guan. Lu Guan was holding two letters in his hands, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
Du Yuanshen looked over and almost laughed out loud. Lu Guan held the letter upside down…
Given Lu Guan's level of education in his previous life, he could only recognize a small portion of the traditional Chinese characters written in regular script. Now, Qiao Xuan and Li Ru's letters were written in the most popular stele and official script. Lu Guan stared at them for ten seconds before realizing that his letter was upside down.
Lu Guan handed Qiao Xuan's letter to Da Qiao awkwardly. Da Qiao read it with a smile. The general idea was that Qiao Xuan was very disappointed with Sun Ce and Zhou Yu and hoped that Lu Guan would treat them well. When the situation stabilized, he could go to Chang 'an to visit him.
As for Li Ru's letter, Lu Guan generously gave it to Du Yuan and asked him to recite it in front of everyone.
Li Ru's letter was simple and strange, which made Lu Guan stand up at once.
In the letter, Li Ru congratulated Lu Guan and said,"With your abilities, General, you must be sitting in Kuaiji City now, right?" He believed that with his thousands of elite soldiers, it would not be a problem for him to sweep through Kuaiji while Sun Ce was busy with the war.
Then Li Ru changed the topic, saying that Sun Ce would come for revenge sooner or later. He said that if Lu Guan was loyal to the Han Dynasty, he could come to Chang 'an to meet the Emperor of Han. Grand Preceptor Dong would definitely ask the Emperor to grant him an official position and let him rule Kuaiji Prefecture legitimately.
This temptation was very big, and this Li Ru was even more terrifying. He was far away in Chang 'an, but he had clearly calculated the battle here.
Lu Guan put away the letter and nodded.""Mr. Du Yuan, there is no time to lose. Let's leave for Chang 'an tomorrow.”
Du Yuan was very happy. He was taken away by the servant girl to rest.
Lu Guan said to Qiao Fu," I'll go to Chang 'an this time to see Lord Qiao Xuan. You can rest assured."”
After Qiao Fu left, Lu Guan ordered the Qiao brothers to guard Sun Shangxiang in the government office and not let her escape.
"You mean you don't want to take us to Chang 'an?" Xiao Qiao said unhappily.”
"Do you think I'm going to Chang 'an for a vacation?" Lu Guan laughed. That would be risking his life. If anything happens to the two of you, it will be troublesome to escape. Hehe, he had been chasing them all the way. Did you see a pair of beautiful sisters? My whereabouts will be clear."
Da and Xiao Qiao were both happy and disappointed, but they finally agreed to stay in Kuaiji.
In fact, Lu Guan wasn't sure himself. He knew that Wang Yun's plan would be launched in the next year or two, but he didn't know the exact time. If Dong Zhuo died as soon as he arrived in Chang 'an, Chang' an would be in chaos. Then, he and Xiao Qiao would be like sheep in a tiger's den.
But no matter what, for Diao Chan and Wenji, his trip to Chang 'an was a trip to the Tiger Mountain despite knowing that there was a tiger in the mountain.
