"No problem! The imperial court would definitely give General Ding a lavish burial. If General Lu is willing to submit to Western Liang, the things promised before will still take effect. Moreover, my lord will also ask the imperial court for an official position for you.”
Lu Bu's request was very direct. To Zhang Chu, this was in line with Lu Bu's personality.
Moreover, doing so would make Dong Zhuo feel more at ease.
People who wanted something were naturally easier to control than those who didn't.
However, Zhang Chu was confused. Was Lu Bu doing this on purpose, or was he like this from the start?
On the other side, Li Ru saw that Lu Bu's request was within Dong Zhuo's range and immediately agreed.
His impression of Lu Bu had also improved.
Just like what Li Su had said, this person was a capricious and greedy boor. Such a person was easier to control.
If Lu Bu was as blindly loyal as Ding Yuan, or if he was too smart, then it would not be easy to control him.
Moreover, he couldn't stay in Luoyang City so easily.
After all, even though Dong Zhuo's power in Luoyang had increased, if Lu Bu was not able to control it and started to stir up trouble, it would be a headache.
Perhaps one day, he would stab Dong Zhuo in the back.
After Lu Bu introduced Zhang Chu and Li Ru to him and found out that he was Lu Bu's son-in-law, they paid less attention to him.
He was just Lu Bu's son-in-law, so this didn't affect him much. Furthermore, Zhang Chu was still young.
While they were discussing, Zhang Chu did not say a word.
Lu Bu believed in this young man, which was why he brought him along.
After the three of them discussed for a while, Li Ru saw that Lu Bu had made up his mind. He said that he would send someone to deliver the items, including Lu Bu's official position.
What Lu Bu did was to bury Ding Yuan, then restrain the Bingzhou Army and make Dong Zhuo the leader.
Then, he and Li Su left first and went back to report to Dong Zhuo.
After going around in circles, Lu Bu had originally needed to kill Ding Yuan to obtain the items, but now he had obtained them.
Apart from that, he could also get another official position from the imperial court.
Although it wasn't as high as Ding Yuan's, it was more than enough to lead the Bingzhou Army.
Lu Bu calculated in his heart and looked at Zhang Chu.
People who had studied were indeed different. As expected, this fellow's way of thinking was more cost-effective. He did not have to do anything and did not have to take any risks to obtain more benefits.
It seemed that he had to squeeze this guy out in the future. He could not let this guy have it too easy.
Zhang Chu seemed to have some doubts on his face. It was unknown whether he was confused about Lu Bu's change or something else.
This made Lu Bu feel extremely proud and happy. He liked this feeling.
In the past, if he saw Zhang Chu say such things about him behind his back, Lu Bu would still be a little unhappy, so he always wanted to mess with this guy.
Now, Lu Bu didn't care about what Zhang Chu said about him behind his back.
However, he liked Zhang Chu even more now. He also liked seeing Zhang Chu's depressed face even more.
My father-in-law is my father-in-law, of course it's different!
After the discussion, Zhang Chu returned to his tent and called for Xi Zhicai and Ma Jun to eat and chat.
Because Ding Yuan had just died, it was a little difficult for them to drink. They had to follow some rules.
However, for the three of them, even if they didn't drink, it was good to talk about world affairs and eat together.
The three of them couldn't interfere with the affairs of the Bingzhou military camp. After all, they weren't fully part of the Bingzhou Army yet.
Lu Bu and the others would handle this, while Zhang Chu and the others would discuss deeper matters.
For example, today's show had given Lu Bu an opportunity to assist him. Zhang Chu naturally had to thank him.
For example, Lu Bu had gotten a chance now, and how he was going to develop in the future. This also required Zhang Chu and Xi Zhicai to discuss it together. The reference of two people was naturally more detailed than thinking alone.
Or they would talk about some of the drawbacks of the world today, such as how the gentry and aristocratic families occupied a large number of resources, making it difficult for the poor to rise.
As well as the improvement and research of some artifacts, only then could he obtain better things.
The three of them sat together and could talk about too many things.
Although Ma Jun was not good with words, he was a good listener.
The improvement and research of those tools were his forte.
In addition, he and Xi Zhi had one thing in common, which was that they were poor students.
Naturally, they had a deeper understanding of what Zhang Chu was talking about with them.
Such a system restricted the path of many poor scholars.
"Ziyu's idea of recruiting scholars is indeed not bad, but if you want to carry it out, the difficulty will be quite high. Especially in places like Luoyang, Yingchuan, and Jingzhou, it would be even more difficult. These places were all controlled by the gentry and aristocratic families.”
Zhang Chu had given himself a name earlier, Ziyu. People in this era were all like this, so he naturally had to do as the locals did.
He was younger than Xi Zhicai and Ma Jun, so after they became familiar with each other, the two of them directly called Zhang Chu.
