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

Chapter 355 Punishment
Wu Xiong was defeated so quickly, while all the officials were dumbfounded, they also really felt the powerful strength of the young Zhonglang general on the school stage.

The first competition is over, and the next step is riding and shooting.

Lu Bu picked a tall red maned horse, came to the starting point, and stood side by side with Han Ju.

The two rode on their horses, and the commanding officer raised the red flag in his hand after asking about the status of the two as usual.

The moment the command flag fell, the two rushed forward at the same time.

When rushing to two hundred steps, Lu Bu suppressed the urge to take the bow and continued to move forward.

He wanted to see why Li Cheng fell off the horse and lost the game.

At the 150th step, Lu Bu took out his bow and arrow, nocked and strung the arrow.

But at this time, Han Ju, who was walking hand in hand with him, showed a sinister smile, repeating the old trick.

The left foot that was clamping the horse's belly was quietly released, taking advantage of Lu Bula's unprepared bow, he opened and kicked the war horse under his crotch.The inch-long cotton needles exposed on the toe of the shoe shone brightly in the bright sunlight.

The needle tip is not long, so it will not cause huge damage to the war horse, but it can definitely make the war horse feel the piercing pain.

Since the two of them were not far away, basically no one would notice this small gesture.

Unexpectedly, Lu Bu had been guarding against him long ago, stretching out his right foot to step on Han Ju's ankle, preventing him from taking his left foot back.

At the same time, Lu Bu also drew the bowstring in his hand to the full.

Seeing the failure of the sneak attack, Han Ju's eyes flashed with surprise, but there was no extra time for him to think about countermeasures at this time. He had to shoot coins to win the game.

Han Ju drew his bow very fast, nocking the arrow to the bowstring, all in one go.

Just as he was about to shoot down the copper coins, a huge force stepped on his left foot.Han Ju was caught off guard, and he didn't even have time to shoot the bow and arrow in his hand. His body fell off the horse's back due to his unstable center of gravity. The galloping hind hooves of the horse stepped heavily on his leg, and there was a muffled sound of bone cracking.

Woohoo!

Han Ju, who fell to the ground, sat up suddenly, his eyes widened, and he wailed in pain, then fell back straight on the ground again, already passed out.

Ding!
The white feathered arrow hit the copper coin without accident, and brought it down the crossbar.

In this round, Lu Bu won again.

The two powerful men were defeated by Lu Bu one after another, Yuan Shu still refused to buy it, and shouted angrily: "Lu Bu, you despicable villain, you are actually cheating!"

Walking up to the emperor, Lu Bu also counterattacked: "General Yuan, what you said. The soldiers of the Habayashi Army fell from their horses because they were not good at riding skills. How come your men fell from their horses? I should be the one who cheated you? I want to ask, what kind of argument is this?"

If you want to say despicable deceit, it was Han Ju who did it first, and he was just "treating him in the same way" that's all.

Yuan Shu couldn't find anything to refute, and was speechless for a while.

He had no choice but to turn around and bow his hands to the emperor, "Your Majesty, please be the master of your minister!"

"Win is winning, and losing is losing. There are so many excuses."

Liu Hong waved his hand impatiently, and looked at Yuan Shu: "Don't get too far away, let's continue the discussion, your crime of deceiving me!"

Yuan Shu was startled, and hastily knelt down again, but he actually forgot about this.

The emperor glanced around the group of officials, and finally turned his attention to Lu Bu, "Lu Aiqing, do you still insist that Yuan Qing's family must die?"

"Return to Your Majesty, Yuan Gonglu committed the crime of deceiving the emperor, and his crime is unforgivable!" Lu Bu's answer remained firm.

Yuan Shu saw that Lu Bu wanted to put him to death, the emperor didn't ask anyone, but he only asked him, what does this mean?
Thinking of this, Yuan Shu's heart has gone half cold.

All the officials did not dare to speak out for Yuan Shu, and all stood aside, waiting for the emperor's final disposition.

Liu Hong raised his face and asked Yuan Shu, "Yuan Qing's family, are you convicted?"

"I am guilty! I have offended Tianwei, and I deserve death!"

At this time, Yuan Shu could no longer be arrogant, he really knew he was afraid.If everything can be done again, he promises to listen to his father's teachings, restrain his temper, and stop causing trouble everywhere.

"Since you are convicted and willing to repent, the general and the officials are pleading for you. I will forgive you this time for the sake of your Yuan family's loyalty to the great man for generations, and I will not be an example."

The emperor's voice reached his ears, and Yuan Shu, who thought he was going to die, was stunned for a while before he realized it, and immediately kowtowed to thank him.

"However, capital crimes can be avoided, and living crimes cannot escape. If you don't give you some punishment, you won't be able to remember. Come on, pull Yuan Gonglu out of the school grounds, and you will have twenty military sticks."

The emperor issued an order, and immediately dozens of soldiers came and dragged Yuan Shu out of the school grounds.

"one two three four……"

Soon, the sound of counting outside the school grounds, together with the sound of being beaten, entered the school grounds.

Yuan Shu had a bit of backbone, and he didn't cry out in pain from the beginning to the end.It's just that he put all these pains and hatreds on Lu Bu's head.

After the twenty army sticks were beaten, Yuan Shu was supported by two soldiers to the emperor.

At this moment, Yuan Shu's face was pale, he held his breath, and persisted in front of the emperor.

"Do you have a long memory?" the emperor asked him.

"Long."

"It's good when it grows up. From today on, don't be your Huben Zhonglang general. Take your two subordinates and go back and reflect on me. Do you hear me?"

"heard it."

In front of the emperor, Yuan Shu couldn't afford to lose his temper.He didn't feel sorry for the loss of Huben Zhonglang. With the Yuan family's power and connections, becoming an official was only a matter of time, and the most important thing was to save his life.

After Liu Hong punished Yuan Shu, he turned his attention to Yuan Shu's old man, "Yuan Feng, you are also temporarily resigning from the position of servant, go back and teach your son well, and tell him what is a ruler and what is a minister."

Yuan Feng, who had been kneeling all this time, kowtowed heavily when he heard the result, and said in a very grateful tone, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

This also means that the emperor has forgiven Yuan Shu and will not target him again.

After dealing with the Yuan family and his son, it is supposed to come to an end.

But the Son of Heaven didn't seem to have the intention of driving. He turned his head to look at Lu Bu, and also scolded: "Since the founding of my country, the virtuous kings of all dynasties have ruled the world with benevolence and filial piety. You and Yuan Shu were ministers in the same dynasty. When he was in trouble, you Not only did you not intercede for him, but you were vicious and wanted to put him to death. You also go back to me, face the wall and think about your mistakes, and don’t come to Habayashi again without my will!"

There was obvious consternation in Lu Bu's eyes, he would never have thought that the emperor would punish him along with him.

Kneeling on the ground, Lu Bu knocked his head on the back of his hands, and said dully, "I take orders."

Seeing that Lu Bu was being blamed, all the officials seemed to be watching the show, as if they were saying: Well, let you be so stupid, you will be scolded now, you deserve it!

The long-awaited competition finally ended in a bad mood.

The emperor drove back to the palace, and Lu Bu also dragged his tired body and left the school grounds.

On the way back to the mansion, the sun above his head was very dazzling, Lu Bu covered it with his hands, his expression full of confusion.

is it wrong?
