The Reincarnation of Lu Bu at the End of the Han Dynasty

Chapter 117 Tell a story and listen to you

Hu Che'er went to see Xi Ce, and after a while, he left the tent and headed south.

It wasn't until late at night that he quietly returned to the camp, but compared to the empty-handed time when he came back, he came back with a bulging big sack on his back.

In order to deceive others, Hu Che'er deliberately bypassed the night patrol.After sneaking into Xi Ce's tent, he saw Xi Ce sitting on his knees with his eyes closed, as if he was waiting for him.Hu Che'er threw the sack on the ground and said angrily, "Here, Xie Ce, this is what you want."

As he said, Hu Che'er untied the rope of the burlap sack, and folded down the burlap sack twice. Through the candlelight, it could be clearly seen that what was contained in the burlap sack was not any object, but a woman tied up with a thick rope. A middle-aged scholar with twists and turns, a taupe gown, a short beard, and a thin torso.

In order to prevent him from waking up and calling for help, Hu Cheer specially stuffed a handful of dry grass into his mouth.

Hu Che'er was born as a bandit, so he is very familiar with these things.

The trick asked Hu Che'er to let go of it, and Hu Che'er was ordered to guard outside the tent to prevent outsiders from approaching.

After a while, the middle-aged scribe woke up. He opened his eyes with difficulty, but what caught his eyes was the conical canopy and the red candlelight. He struggled to sit up, his whole body felt sore .He remembered that two days ago, he found a dilapidated house in Pingyang County to live temporarily. He was still thinking about things in the house this afternoon, but he didn't know how he got here.

He looked around again, and in front of him was an ordinary young man who was more than ten years younger than him, staring at him with a harmless expression.

Before he could speak, Xi Tie spoke first: "Brother, don't panic, I invite you here because I have a story I want to tell you."

When the middle-aged scribe heard this, he couldn't stop laughing in his heart. He tied himself to the camp in the middle of the night, saying that he was telling a story. Do you really think I am a three-year-old child?
But he didn't say anything to expose it, and listened quietly, he wanted to see what the young man in front of him was going to sing.

Xi Ce had a panoramic view of the scribe's expression, regardless of whether he believed it or not, he began to speak in a long tone: "It is said that many years ago, there was a famous family in Jincheng, Taiyuan, whose surname was Chen, who had been stationed in the north for generations..."

With just this one sentence, the middle-aged scribe's calm face changed instantly, and he looked at the young man in front of him as if he had seen a ghost, but Xie Ze didn't seem to notice his abnormality, and concentrated on telling the story.

The Chen family has been passed down for countless generations, and in this life, the current head of the family is a great hero.He practiced horseback riding and archery since he was a child, and his martial arts were outstanding. He was promoted as Xiaolian at a young age, and later moved to Wuyuan County.

A few years later, civil strife broke out in the Southern Huns who were attached to the Han Dynasty. He was worshiped by the court as the general of the Huns. Without the permission of the court, he urged and ordered the Southern Huns Shanyu to commit suicide. Killed, dismissed and sent to prison.

Fortunately, not long after he was released from prison, he was appointed as Jing Zhao Yin again, restraining the tyrannical and powerful, causing the people to drum up and down again and again, but also offended many dignitaries in the court.

Later, when the Qiang and Hu bandits were on the border, the emperor took him as the general of the Liao Dynasty and went out to defend Bing and Liang. The Qiang people dared not commit another crime.

There is such a record in the book to evaluate this person: "Make the frontier 'states and counties tremble with heavy feet, and the Qiang and Hu dare not approach the fortress. Save interest and use it, and the age is hundreds of millions'."

After suppressing the Qiang Hu, he was promoted to Minister of State again. At that time, Liang Ji, a relative at home and abroad, was in power, and the tyranny was increasing. He tried to impeach him several times, but failed, and finally died of a hunger strike for seven days.

"Enough!" The middle-aged scribe slapped the table and stood up, interrupting the drama he was talking about.

"Hey, don't worry, the story hasn't finished yet, let's listen to it again." The dramatist waved his hand, and then said, "Two months after Chen Gong was buried, Liang Ji wrote a letter to frame him for 'destroying the country's prestige and provoking him. Taking merit, and secretly having an affair with Qianghu', the emperor was furious and ordered to kill the Chen family. The poor generation of loyal generals ended up like this. As for the exact year, I can't remember clearly Sad, lamentable, woohoo, alas!"

"The third day of December in the first year of Yanxi, 24 years and 280 days ago!" An unexpected answer was revealed through the gnashing of teeth of the middle-aged scribe.

The candles flickered and there was no sound.

A hint of cunning flashed across Xi Ce's eyes, and he pretended to be surprised and asked: "Why, brother also read this story? I remember it so clearly, I really admire it."

Chen Fu turned a deaf ear to Xie Ce's praise, he suddenly bent over to Xie Ce's face, and asked sharply, "Who are you!"

The deeds of the Chen family, which was extinct 20 years ago, are so rare, which makes him feel extremely uneasy.

The protagonist in the story is his grandfather Chen Gui.When the Chen family was destroyed, he was only 12 years old and went out with his clan brothers, so he was able to escape.After being arrested by the imperial court, he had to change his appearance and change his name to Fu. What he wanted was to let himself always remember and revive the Chen family.

Looking at Chen Fu, who was facing the enemy, his play was as indifferent as ever. He sipped his saliva and moistened his throat, and the words he said afterwards were bloody, "I know that you have been in refuge for many years, and you have worked hard to become Mingwei. General Qin Zhao's confidant and staff. Not only that, but Qin Zhao died in Guangyan City a few days ago, and you were the one who informed the Xianbei people in advance, am I right?"

Hearing these words, Chen Fu was terrified, he was always cautious in doing things, never thought that the person in front of him knew his actions like the palm of his hand, what was his origin?

Joke twitched his shoulders twice, and signaled Chen Fu to sit down temporarily, with a soft tone, "Don't worry, I don't mean anything malicious, I just want to make a deal with you."

"What deal?"

Chen Fu didn't sit down, and looked at the play with vigilance in his eyes. The person in front of him was full of threats to him. If all these things were exposed, then all his hard work these years would be in vain.

"I'll help you revive the Chen family. You recognize Lu Bu as the master." Xi Ce said calmly, as if he was talking about a very ordinary and trivial matter.

Chen Fu was stunned for a moment. The extermination of the Chen family was a decree issued by the emperor. If he wanted to revive the Chen family, he had to overturn the emperor's conclusion. Wouldn't this be a slap in the face in front of the whole world, saying that our emperor was wrong? ?
Impossible.

Thinking of this, Chen Fu's face couldn't help but feel a little lonely, and he remembered the second half of the play "recognize Lu Bu as the master", and he couldn't help but sneered: "Lu Fengxian is just a mere school captain, and he wants me to serve you. It's a joke."

What is Lu Bu's origin, and what is his origin? The identities of the two are very different.Although the Chen family was destroyed, the blood of the aristocratic family flowing in his bones would never allow him to bow his head to the poor family.

"But you are different and have taken refuge in the Xianbei people. Brother, don't forget, you are a Han Chinese." The play was light.

"Han people?"

Chen Fu seemed to hear the funniest joke in the world. He held his forehead and laughed maniacally. Tears overflowed from the corners of his eyes. How did the emperor treat my Chen family? Treat it like nothing, and discard it like a shoe! Do you know how I got here all these years? Now I have figured it out. Still a traitor."

"Since the death of Tan Shihuai, the Xianbei family has been divided into three forces. They are harmonious on the surface, but they are constantly fighting among themselves. They all want to swallow each other. And Budugen, who was hurt by the Yanmen Pass battle, has joined forces with Kebizhong. But why they haven't gone south for a long time is because Fuyou stationed the army at the Nale River, making it stick in his throat. If Budugen wants to go south with peace of mind, he must drive away Fuyou, but once the two sides fight, whoever wins, Still unknown."

"Even if they fight between snipe and clam, Lu Bu will never be that fisherman."

Chen Fu's face darkened, even he didn't know about these things, and how did he know about the plot.He didn't know that Wei Musheng, who is now stationed in Yunzhong County, would send letters to Xi Ce almost every day. As for his status as a descendant of the Chen family, he had to attribute his status to Wu Chong who had been in the underworld for a long time.

Back then when Wu Chong was captured in Yunzhong County, a lot of useful things came out of him.Before the Xianbei people went south, Fu Tuhe sneaked into Bingzhou many times as a merchant, recruiting and recruiting a large number of people who hated the Han. Wu Chong didn't know much about the list, but Chen Fu happened to be among them.

The five fingers tapped the case table rhythmically, seeing that Chen Fu still refused to give in, and he didn't want to waste any more words on the plot, he said with a smile: "But now, you have no choice."

The threat in the words is self-evident, as long as he speaks, Hu Che'er, who is guarding outside the tent, can come in immediately.Since Chen Fu could be 'invited' here without disturbing anyone, naturally he could be thrown into the river to feed the bastard without disturbing anyone.

"You think I'm a person who is afraid of death?" Chen Fu's tone was calm, obviously he had already ignored life and death.

"Of course you are not afraid of death, but if you die, who will revive the Chen family?"

These words fell on Chen Fu's heart like a thunderbolt, cutting off all his escape routes, for the sake of the Chen family, he had no choice.

The hesitation that appeared on Chen Fu's face fell into the eyes of the play, and he guessed Chen Fu's mind in an instant, and said with a smile: "Crossing rivers and demolishing bridges is not my style, and there is no guarantee that we will have a common enemy in the future." .”

Having said all this, what else can Chen Fu say.

Floating in the world for more than twenty years, Chen Fu has dealt with many people, even those old foxes who hide their knives in their smiles may not be able to fight this person in front of him.

He had never seen such a terrifying person with such a mind.
