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

Chapter 490 Incompetent Father
Boom!

Thunder suddenly sounded in the gloomy sky, and then dark clouds covered it.

Looking up, the dark sky is very depressing.

tick~~
An autumn rain soon fell on the earth.

Lu Bu, who was standing in front of the map, finally turned around. He looked at Chen Wei who was kneeling on the ground pleading guilty, with suppressed anger in his eyes: "Long Xiang, you have been with me for many years, you can be said to be the person I trust the most. That's why I entrusted you with such an important matter, thinking that nothing would go wrong. As a result, you managed it like this?"

A strong man with half a foot in the first-class realm can't even look down on a child!

How could Lu Bu not be angry.

"The subordinates will die ten thousand times, and they have failed the general's trust. They are willing to be dealt with by the military law!"

Chen Wei knocked his head heavily on the ground and did not lift it up for a long time.

Hearing this, Lu Bu, who was furious, immediately shouted: "Come here!"

Immediately, four guards walked in from outside the hall, waiting for Lu Bu's order.

"General, don't get angry. As far as Xi knows, Chen Wei has always been strict in his work. There may be something hidden in the loss of King Hongnong. You might as well listen to his words first."

Xi Ce speaks out to intercede for Chen Wei.

Lu Bu calmed down, waved his hand, and asked the guards to step back for now.

Then he found a seat and sat down, looked at Chen Wei, "Tell me, how did you lose it."

Chen Wei didn't dare to hide the slightest thing, so he talked to Lu Bu in detail.

After he left Luoyang with King Hongnong, he arrived in Gucheng safely according to the route Lu Bu said.

Everything was calm and there was no disturbance at all.

Until a few days ago, King Hongnong fell ill.

The local doctor in the village was at a loss. Chen Wei was worried that something might happen, so he went to the city and invited a doctor to come back to see a doctor.As a result, when he came back, King Hongnong on the sickbed was gone.

Chen Wei was also very anxious at the time. He searched the entire village, even within a radius of tens of miles, but there was no sign of King Hongnong.When he was about to continue to expand the search area, the people sent by Lu Bu found Chen Wei.

Chen Wei searched for another two or three days, but couldn't find Liu Bian, so he followed him back to Chang'an.

"This subordinate is careless and has failed the general's high expectations. Please punish the general."

Chen Wei kowtowed again to plead guilty, no matter what the reason was, it was always because of his momentary carelessness that caused the whereabouts of King Hongnong to be unknown.

Lu Bu sighed, asked someone to untie the thick rope on Chen Wei, and waved his hands tiredly: "Forget it, it's not your fault."

The issue of resettlement of the people has not been resolved, and now such a thing has happened, it is really "a leak in the house happens to rain all night".

Regardless of whether Liu Bian ran away secretly by himself or was taken away by others, it was a very bad thing for Lu Bu.More importantly, how should he explain to the emperor.

Lu Bu turned his head to look at Xi Ce and asked, "Sir, what do you think?"

Thinking about the play strategy, his face was also a little more dignified: "I'm afraid this is not a good thing for the general. If it falls into the hands of someone with a heart, it will definitely become a serious disaster."

This is what Lu Bu is worried about.

"As of now, there is only one way."

"What method?" Lu Bu asked immediately, with a little eagerness in his tone.

Play strategy pondered, and replied: "Announce to the world that King Hongnong is dead."

…………

Weiyang Palace, Chengming Palace.

Lu Bu stood outside the hall, begging to see the emperor.

Liu Xie learned that Lu Bu was coming and asked him to be invited in.

After Lu Bu entered the palace, Liu Xie couldn't wait to ask, his dark eyes were full of hopeful joy: "Lu Qing, but there is news about my brother."

Seeing Liu Xie's look of anticipation, Lu Bu couldn't bear it, but he was still ruthless, and reported: "Your Majesty, I am incompetent. On the way back, King Hongnong encountered a group of vicious robbers. All the guards were killed, and King Hongnong was not spared."

For Liu Xie, this answer was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue.

He couldn't believe it, he stood there dumbfounded, and asked in a daze: "Lu Qing, you mean...my elder brother, he, he..."

Lu Bu nodded, and said in a low voice, "Please mourn, Your Majesty."

The emperor's father is gone, the emperor's grandmother is gone, and now, even the only brother who was kind to him is gone...

Liu Xie staggered unsteadily, and fell to sit on the sill, his eyes were empty, as if he had lost his soul.

He was only seven years old, and he was suffering unimaginable pain at this time.

The prince of the Han Dynasty was killed by bandits. This kind of thing can't be leaked. It can only be called to the world, saying that he died suddenly or died of illness.

Otherwise, it will damage the royal majesty.

When Lu Bu was leaving, Liu Xie stopped him, with resentful anger and murderous intent in his small eyes: "Lu Qing, I order you to lead troops to exterminate those bandits immediately, and I will use their heads to come Pay homage to the spirit in heaven who comforts the emperor!"

Lu Bu froze for a moment, clasped his fists and replied, "Here."

Just in a daze just now, he saw a trace of Liu Hong's former emperor from this little emperor.

The news of King Hongnong's sudden death quickly spread throughout the world.

After learning of this incident, the shepherds of the prefectures and sheriffs all over the country were shocked, and they sent prayers of condolences one after another, expressing their deep memory of King Hongnong.

Among them, there are many ambitious people with other ideas. At first, they also wanted to help Liu Bian restore the throne, so as to take the opportunity to make a fortune in helping the dragon.

Now it seems that it can only be done.

The matter of King Hongnong came to an end, and Lu Bu's next job was to focus on the settlement of Luoyang people.

Guanzhong couldn't keep so many people, so they had to move to Tianshui County near Guanzhong in the west.

He originally planned to take a good rest for a period of time before going to attack the Qiang people in Xiliang, but now in order to settle down these people, Lu Bu had no choice but to put the plan of suppressing the rebellion in Xiliang on the agenda.

Two days later, Lu Bu took only two thousand wolf cavalry battalions and embarked on a new journey.

Outside the city gate, Xi Ce, Hao Meng and others came to see Lu Bu off, Yan Wei, Xiao Lingdang and their two sons were also here.

"Father, are you leaving again?" Little Bell looked at Lu Bu eagerly, clutching his trouser legs tightly and refusing to let go.

Lu Bu held the red dodder with his left hand, rubbed his daughter's little head with his right hand, and tried to show a smile: "Little Lingdang, you must listen to your mother at home..."

Before Lu Bu finished speaking, Little Bell shook his trouser legs again as if begging: "Daddy, can you not go?"

The father and daughter have been together for less than ten days, and they will be separated again. Little Lingdang likes him the most as a father!

Looking at his daughter's eyes full of expectation, Lu Bu felt an indescribable sadness in his heart. He wanted to nod his head and agree, but if he agreed, these more than [-] people would be homeless.

"Daddy, I will be back soon, you wait for me..."

Lu Bu still didn't agree after all.

pat.

Two crystal clear teardrops rolled down the cheeks and fell to the ground.

Little Bell pushed Lu Bu's palm away, gritted her teeth and shouted stubbornly, with a crying voice: "Liar, I don't want you anymore!"

After finishing speaking, he wiped his tears and ran into the city crying loudly.

Seeing this, the maid next to her hurriedly followed her.

Hearing his daughter's sad cries, Lu Bu's heart was about to break, his tiger eyes turned red, and his heart was filled with guilt and self-blame for his daughter.

"Husband, Ling'er is still young, she doesn't understand many things."

Lu Bu shook his head, his tone lost: "Don't blame her, it's my father, who is too incompetent."
