Xu Xiao's tone was not heavy, but his killing intent was not small.
Even though Lu Bu had experienced many battles, he still felt a little frightened.
The ruthlessness and decisiveness in his eyes were definitely not a joke!
Lu Bu fell silent.
Bow down and pledge loyalty for life?
Stop joking!
Lu Bu had never been loyal to anyone!
It was even more impossible for him to be loyal to Xu Xiao now.
Especially after Xu Xiao's words.
Lu Bu didn't dare to open his mouth!
The Snow Dragon Riders made Lu Bu very wary!
Seeing Lu Bu's hesitation, Chen Gong sighed inwardly.
If it wasn't for the fact that he was going to attack Cao Cao's Yanzhou, Chen Gong would never have acknowledged Lu Bu as his lord.
Wise men will choose wise kings.
As for Lu Bu.
He was not the wise ruler in the eyes of the Buchen Palace!
However…
Now that he had acknowledged Lu Bu as his lord, Lu Bu had not mistreated Chen Gong.
If Chen Gong abandoned Lu Bu and found a new master, it would not be in line with Chen Gong's principles.
"Envoy Xu, Wen Hou doesn't want to be capricious. It's just that although Ding Yuan was Wen Hou's foster father, he didn't have any father-son relationship. Dong Zhuo was a traitor to the country, and Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao looked down on Wen Hou's background.”
"A good bird chooses a tree to perch on, a good official chooses a master to serve, Wen Hou had no choice!”
Lu Bu suddenly came to a realization and recalled Chen Gong's plan. He hurriedly said,""Envoy Xu, I have a few lords, but most of them are wary of me. Even if I want to be loyal to them, I have to consider the lives of my wife and children.”
Xu Xiao did not expect Lu Bu to bow down.
After all, Lu Bu was a person.
He was already used to forsaking righteousness for profit.
"If Marquis Wen is unwilling, this provincial governor will not force you.”
"However, I have to say this first. Although Xiao Pei is under Yuzhou, he respects the laws of Xuzhou. That day, I killed Zhang Fei and drove Liu Bei away because Zhang Fei committed the crime of robbery!”
Xiao Pei can give up.
With Mi Fang's talent, she couldn't guard Xiao Pei.
If Mi Fang abandoned the city and fled, it would be wrong for Xu Xiao to kill her or not.
The best way.
It was to let Mi Fang return to her old profession and do business for Xu Xiao.
Therefore…
Lu Bu was stationed in Xiaopei as the gateway to Xuzhou.
Although Lu Bu might not be loyal to him.
But if Lu Bu didn't want to be homeless, he wouldn't give up on Xiao Pei so easily.
I'm just giving in.
Intimidation!
It was a must!
Seeing how decisive Xu Xiao was, not wanting to recruit him anymore, Lu Bu felt anxious.
At least I, Lu Bu, am the brave leader of the army.
Can't you just give in?
Maybe if you recruit me again, I'll agree!
Chen Gong quickly gave Lu Bu a look.
Lu Bu understood and immediately stood up. He said hurriedly,""Envoy Xu, you misunderstood! "Now, I don't trust Xu Shijun, and Xu Shijun doesn't trust me. This is human nature. After all, I was indeed capricious before!”
"But although I, Lu Bu, am fickle, I will never abandon my wife and daughter!”
"I have a daughter named Ling Qi. She is sixteen years old and is proficient in martial arts. She is good at riding and archery and has admired you for a long time.”
"If my daughter, Ling Qi, can be with you for a hundred years, Lu Bu is willing to serve you and conquer the world.”
"If I break my oath, I, Lu Bu, will be hanged on the city walls!”
Xu Xiao was stunned.
His gaze was a little strange.
I want to treat you as a brother, but you want to be my father-in-law?
Xu Xiao adjusted the wine cup, quietly considering.
Lu Bu had no son.
He only had one daughter.
If he took Lu Lingqi, it would be easier to subdue Lu Bu.
But at the same time.
This would make Lu Bu even more arrogant in Xu Prefecture.
I, Xu Xiao, am not someone who covets women!
"Marquis Lu Wen, although I haven't married yet, I have already sent a letter and a letter to the Eastern Sea's Mei Clan.”
"There is only one official wife."
"If you want your daughter to marry me, fine, but she can only be a concubine!”
Lu Bu couldn't hold it in any longer.
He only had one daughter, but she had to be Xu Xiao's concubine?
"An orderly wife and concubines is the foundation of stability!”
"I, Xu Xiao, will not mistreat any of my wives and concubines, but I will also not allow any of my wives and concubines to hate each other and interfere in politics.”
"Lu Wenhou, I still say the same thing.”
Seeing Lu Bu hesitate again, Chen Gong reminded him in a low voice,""Wen Hou, with Ling Qi's personality, what do you think will happen if she becomes Xu Xiao's wife?”
Lu Bu's expression turned awkward.
An image involuntarily appeared in his mind:
Lu Qiling dragged her halberd and warmly invited Xu Xiao's concubine,""Sisters, it's time to practice martial arts!"
* Cough cough *
Lu Bu coughed lightly to hide his embarrassment.
Then, he vowed,"There is an order for wives and concubines. Since you already have a wife, my daughter should be a concubine!" As long as you don't let me down, I will not let you down!”
Xu Xiao took in Chen Gong and Lu Bu's reactions.
He had already made up his mind.
Lu Bu was fickle.
Can be a general, can not be a commander.
Chen Gong, on the other hand, could be a military advisor.
Xu Xiao stood up and raised his wine cup." Lu Wenhou, since you have sincerely submitted to me, I, Xu Xiao, will not treat you unfairly!" However, I have to say this first. Xuzhou's laws are strict. The troops under Marquis Lu Wen must be more restrained!”
"Of course!" Lu Bu was overjoyed. In the future, we will be a family. No matter how useless I am, I will not harm my own people.”
The banquet ended.
Mi Zhu stayed behind alone." My Lord, it's not that I'm overthinking things. It's just that Lu Bu is a wolf and capricious. If I keep him by my side, I'll be raising a tiger to invite trouble!"”
Xu Xiao smiled." Of course I know. Lu Bu is a wolf that can't be fed to its fill. However, Xuzhou is not like Guanzhong. There is no natural barrier to defend." Now, Cao Cao occupied Shandong, Yuan Shao occupied Jizhou and Qingzhou, and Yuan Shu was fighting with Liu Yao for Yangzhou in the south. No matter which side won, they would all look north to Xuzhou!”
"Let Lu Bu station his troops in Xiaopei and form a corner with Xu Prefecture. Even if Cao Cao wants to attack, he has to think twice!”
"Yuan Shao has a grudge against Gongsun Zan. He won't go south to Xuzhou in the short term.”
"I will take this opportunity to go south to Yangzhou, destroy Liu Yao, and expel Yuan Shu!”
"My lord is going south. What if Lu Bu attacks Pengcheng?" Mi Zhu asked in surprise.”
Mi Zhu was still worried about Lu Bu.
"Attack Peng City?"
Xu Xiao laughed." Pengcheng has Tian Dan, Donghai has Lu Su, Langya has Chen Deng, and Lu Bu doesn't have a spy. Why should we attack Pengcheng?"”
