Lu Bu no longer had any doubts. Riding on his Red Hare Horse and carrying his Heavenly Halberd, he took the lead and entered Puyang City.
Although Chen Gong was furious and ashamed, what was done was done. Li Mu's plan had succeeded, so Chen Gong could only follow him into Puyang City.
"Damn it!"
"One wrong step, one wrong step after another!"
"If Si Ni was here, he could kill Li Mu in the chaos.”
Chen Gong sighed inwardly.
If Si Ni attacked Fan County, Lu Bu's ten thousand soldiers would not listen to Chen Gong's orders.
"Pu Yang merchant Tian Ci, under the orders of the Pu Yang Magistrate, welcomes Marquis Wen into the city!”
When Tian Ci saw Lu Bu's iconic Red Hare Heavenly Halberd, he immediately went forward to welcome him.
Lu Bu also saw the banner that had been pulled open. On it were large red characters that were praising Lu Bu!
"Brave and unrivaled, Lu Bu, the most powerful warrior in the world!”
"Haha!"
Lu Bu was elated by this comment.
Ever since he left Chang 'an, Lu Bu had wanted to join Yuan Shu, but he was expelled by Yuan Shu. He had wanted to join Yuan Shao, but he was assassinated by Yuan Shao. He had thought that Zhang Miao and Chen Gong sincerely supported him to be the herdsman of Yanzhou. In the end, Zhang Miao and Chen Gong were no different from Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao. They just wanted to kill him with a borrowed knife and then kill the donkey when he was done with it.
Unlike now, when Puyang City welcomed them warmly, all that was missing was the city gates.
"Flatterer!" Chen Gong secretly spat. There was helplessness, jealousy, and unwillingness in his eyes.
The slogan on the banner was especially glaring to Chen Gong. It read," The wisest man in the world, Li Mu."
A mere Humble Class, how dare you call yourself a noble!
"Tian Ci, I am very happy that you are willing to welcome me.”
"I have already given the order that the three armies are not allowed to loot the city. Those who disobey will be killed.”
"Don't worry!"
While Lu Bu was feeling proud, he didn't forget to appease Tian Ci.
Tian Ci pretended to be overjoyed." Marquis Wen is benevolent. The soldiers and the people of Puyang will all be grateful for your kindness. Play the music!"
The three hundred servants took out their musical instruments and played the joyous music.
" Haha!" Lu Bu laughed." It seems that Puyang City has been suffering for a long time!"”
On the side, Chen Gong's expression darkened.
The more sincere Puyang City was in surrendering, the more it would seem like Chen Gong was jealous of the capable!
"Li Mu, Li Xianmou!"
Gritting his teeth, Chen Gong looked at Li Mu, who had come with Cai Wenji from the city gate tower. He wished he could shoot an arrow through his heart.
"Wen Hou, are you satisfied with this welcome gift?”Li Mu glanced at Chen Gong and cupped his hands at Lu Bu.
"I'm satisfied!" Lu Bu laughed. Of course he was satisfied! Minister Cai's son-in-law was indeed a wonderful person. The person beside him must be the talented lady Cai, who was once famous in Luoyang.”
Cai Wenji wore a tulle and bowed.""Cai Yan greets you. My father used to work with Marquis Wen as the prime minister. He often said that Marquis Wen was a dragon and phoenix among men, a hero of the world. Today, I know that my father was right.”
When Lu Bu heard Cai Yong's evaluation of him in the past, he felt even more proud. But at the same time, he felt a little ashamed,""Wang Situ insisted on killing Minister Cai. I wish I could dissuade him.”
"My father was loyal to his country and died in Chang 'an. It was his fate, it has nothing to do with Wen Hou.”Cai Wenji's eyes dimmed, but her words did not lose their grace.
"We're all old friends, so let's not talk about these sad things." Li Mu smiled. Marquis Wen is tired from the march. I have already prepared a banquet at the county government. I don't know if Marquis Wen's family is here, so I can let Wenji accompany me.”
Lu Bu shook his head." My family is all in Chenliu. How can I bring my relatives along when I'm marching and fighting?"”
Li Mu pretended to frown." I once heard that when Wen Hou left Chang 'an, his family stayed in Chang' an. Fortunately, Pang Shu had hidden it, so he was able to meet Wen Hou." Yanzhou was in chaos, and it was unknown when the war would end. Wen Hou might as well bring his family over to Puyang. Not only would he be able to relieve the pain of longing, but he would also be able to avoid being held back by others.”
Good fellow!
Li Mu's words were equivalent to mocking Zhang Miao in front of Chen Gong for having the intention of keeping him as a hostage in Lu Bu's family.
Chen Gong said angrily," Li Mu, Zhang Miao is a modest gentleman. He is a righteous and generous person. Why would he do such a despicable thing? Are you trying to say that Zhang Miao is holding the Wen family hostage?"”
I was waiting for you to speak!
" Zhang Miao is a modest gentleman." Li Mu waved his folding fan." I beg to differ." In the past, Cao Cao had entrusted his family to Zhang Miao, but now Zhang Miao had taken advantage of Cao Cao's eastern expedition to Xuzhou to rebel. Wen Hou wants to achieve great things, how can he be restrained by others?”
"Li Mu, you're too arrogant. Do you think I don't exist?”Chen Gong was shocked and furious.
He was shocked that Li Mu didn't hide his intention to sow discord.
He was furious because if Lu Bu believed him and moved his family to Puyang, then there would be no way to stop Lu Bu!
"Chen Gongtai, you misunderstood me again.”"I'm just a counselor. What bad intentions can I have?" Li Mu said calmly.”
"Isn't it what strategists like us should do to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages for our lord and to check for loopholes?”
"I surrendered to Wen Hou, not Zhang Miao. What's wrong with plotting for Wen Hou?”
"Since Zhang Miao is a modest gentleman, he definitely won't worry about Wen Hou moving his family to Pu Yang.”
"Or rather," Li Mu paused."You, Chen Gongtai, are not Wen Hou's strategist, but Zhang Miao's strategist?”
