Chapter 550 Isn't this Dong Bai?

"General, why didn't you tell Lieutenant Ting to kill Yuan Shu, so as to eliminate one side's troubles." After Qiu Lian left, Xi Ce walked into the hall.He could clearly hear the conversation between Lu Bu and Ting Weiqing just now.

Lu Bu shook his head slightly. Although he pointed the finger at Yuan Shu in the bloodbath that night in Chang'an, the reason was far-fetched, not to mention that Yuan Shu would rather die than admit it in prison.If Yuan Shu had to be killed, not only would it not be conducive to winning people's hearts, but he might also be accused of being jealous and detrimental.

That's why Yuan Shu was handed over to Tingwei Mansion for trial.

In this way, whether Yuan Shu is alive or dead, he has nothing to do with Lu Bu, and he is quiet.

In the previous life, Yuan Shu did it purely by himself, disregarding the advice of counselors, insisting on proclaiming himself emperor in Huainan, so he lost the hearts of the people.

When the wall falls, everyone pushes it, and when the drum breaks, everyone beats it.

But right now, Yuan Shu is still relatively rational, and there are not a few of his supporters.

Lv Bu currently has no plans to confront the Yuan family head-on. The reason why Yuan Shu was captured and brought back was to express his attitude to the court.

Just like that night, many officials in Chang'an City were bloodbathed, and a few people were also spared, such as Liu Yan's two sons, Sima Fang's family...

There is actually not much benefit in forcing these people to jump over the wall.

After listening to Xi Ce, he smiled with relief on his face, maybe Lu Bu couldn't notice it himself.But in the eyes of the play, this reckless man who used to only know how to charge forward has become more and more powerful with the mind of a superior.

September [-], arrived as scheduled.

The gongs and drums in Lu's mansion were loud, and even standing in the market far away, one could hear the laughter here.

The dignitaries and dignitaries in Chang'an City came here on this day, and the cars parked in front of the Lu Mansion alone blocked the entire street.

Therefore, many officials had to get out of their cars far away and come on foot.

The steward greeted him at the door, and Xu Jing also became a teacher who received gifts and kept accounts.

Lu Bu greeted the guests in the courtyard, and would let out hearty laughter from time to time. It can be seen that he is obviously in a very good mood today.Yan Wei combed Dong Bai's hair in the room and put on festive clothes for her. Little Bell watched from the side and praised her sister for her beauty, which made Dong Bai feel sweet in his heart.

"Marquis Wen, congratulations! A mere small gift is not a respect, so please accept it with a smile."

"Marquis Wen is happy to accept a righteous daughter today. It's really a blessing. I'm envious of this official!"

At noon, more and more guests came with gifts.

"Did you see, these officials have the faces of dogs, and they change as soon as they say. Those people who looked down on Lu Bu before, look at them now, and they can't wait to worship Lu Bu as their ancestors. The appearance of flattery is really wicked. "The boy with the white fox face took a sip of wine, looked at this side indifferently, and snorted disdainfully.

Xie Ce came over, walked behind the boy, and flicked Guo Jia's head vigorously with his fingers.

The latter immediately yelled 'Oh,' and put his head in his hands, looking at the sweaty culprit full of resentment.If it wasn't for the fact that his strength was not as good as his tricks, Guo Jia would probably be able to turn the world upside down with him immediately.

"You're still young, you don't know how to be an official."

Xi Ce wiped the sweat from his brow, besides Lu Bu, he is probably the one who socialized the most today.

These officials all knew that Lü Bu valued drama, and although he had no official position, none of them dared to disrespect him, so they all made friends with him, hoping to get some inside news.

The play strategy is also limited in terms of entertainment. Thinking that he was born in a poor family and was ridiculed all day long, how many people can think that he will become the target of these officials' curry favor now.

It can be said that good luck tricks people.

"It's too small!" Guo Jia subconsciously glanced at the crotch after hearing the joke, and protested dissatisfied.

Xi Ce smiled at this, Guo Jia's talent is beyond the reach of even him.But being smart doesn't mean being good at dealing with others. Guo Jia is unrestrained and unwilling to suffer when things happen, which also makes it difficult for him to get along with others.

Xi Ce was a little worried about this.

At this time, two brothers, Liu Fan and Liu Dan, entered the courtyard. In addition to bringing two hundred pieces of high-quality Sichuan brocade, they also held a pot of delicate red flowers in their hands.

The two brothers are well aware of the person behind the bloodbath in Chang'an that night.The officials who died were all accomplices who once conspired to kill Lu Bu. Except for Lu Bu who could do this, who else would be so cruel.

However, even if they knew the truth, the two brothers did not dare to announce it to the public.

As one of the few survivors, they both understood a truth. If they want to live in the long run, they should stay as close to Lu Bu's camp as possible.

"I heard that my wife likes flowers and plants. My two brothers specially presented the unique hollyhocks in Shu to congratulate Marquis Wen on today's joy."

The two brothers presented the flower pots, Lu Bu glanced at them, he didn't know much about flowers and plants, but the bright red flowers made people's hearts bursting with joy, and it fit in with today's festive atmosphere.

Wei Niang should like it.

Thinking so, Lu Bu asked someone to move the two pots of hollyhocks to Nanyuan, then nodded: "You two have a heart, take a seat."

…………

At noon, guests gathered in the courtyard of Lu Mansion, and hundreds of tables were filled with guests.

Facing the center of the courtyard arch, Lu Bu sat upright.Today he was wearing a large black brocade robe, with a jade belt around his waist, and his long hair was fastened with a purple gold crown, making him look quite majestic.

Sitting next to him is his wife Yan Wei, and on Yan Wei's right are Little Bell and her two younger brothers.

The one who presided over the ceremony was Ding Gong, an old acquaintance in Jiuqing.

When he learned that Lu Bu was going to hold a ceremony with great fanfare, Ding Gong was the first to come out and recommended himself.Lu Bu felt more at ease with Ding Gong, so he handed over the matter to him.

Ding Gong, who was wearing a formal attire, was familiar with the road. Under his auspices, the ceremony was proceeding in an orderly manner.

When the adopted daughter entered the arena, all the guests turned their eyes to the gate of the courtyard at the same time, wanting to see how sacred this girl who was lucky enough to worship Lu Bu as her adoptive father was.

At the gate of the courtyard, with the support of two maidservants, Dong Bai, who was dressed in bright red clothes and tied with a red string on his head, walked lightly, stepped over the threshold of the courtyard, and came slowly.

The moment they saw the little girl's face clearly, more than half of the officials were stunned in their seats, as if struck by lightning, with disbelief on their faces.

Some elderly people even rubbed their eyes with their hands, and murmured to their familiar friends next to them: "Is it my eyesight? Why does this girl look so familiar? She seems to be the granddaughter of Dong Zhuo... "

The old friend next to him hurriedly made a 'shh' gesture, obviously recognizing Dong Bai's identity.

Realizing that he had said something wrong, the old man immediately fell silent, looked in the direction of Lu Bu, and heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Lu Bu had not heard the words.

This can't be said nonsense.

At this time, the rest of the people also gradually came to their senses. They didn't mention Dong Bai's identity, as if they had never seen it before.

In this way, Dong Bai walked all the way in front of Lu Bu and Yan Wei under the eyes of everyone, and the maid brought the ginseng tea that had been prepared a long time ago and stood on Dong Bai's right side.

"Father uses tea."

"Mother uses tea."

Dong Bai picked up two cups of tea and handed them to Lu Bu and Yan Wei respectfully.

Lu Bu nodded majestically, while Yan Wei smiled lovingly and put the jade Buddha beads she begged from the temple on Dong Bai's hand.

Lu Bu next to him spread out the tea cover, ready to drink tea.

At this time, an untimely interruption suddenly sounded in the courtyard: "Wait a minute!"

When everyone looked back, a 27-year-old young man stood up near the end.

Lu Bu paused, and had no impression of this person, so he asked the steward, "Who is this person?"

"Patriarch, this person's name is Li Ao, he is a student of Taifu Ma Rixun, and he currently holds the position of You Langzhong." The steward replied respectfully.

An official position of this level in Youlangzhong is equivalent to a drop in the bucket for Lu Bu.However, since he is a student of the Taifu, Lu Bu still gave him a two-pointer, and asked aloud: "Do you have any opinions?"

"Wen Hou, I think this little girl looks very familiar. If I remember correctly, she should be the remnant of Dong Zhuo!" Li Ao sneered, and answered in a neither humble nor overbearing manner, quite complacent, thinking that he had caught Lu Bu.

When everyone heard this, except for a very few who were particularly surprised, the rest of the people had little reaction, and even sneered in their hearts: Ma Rizun was smart all his life, how could he accept such an idiot student.

Lu Bu's face turned cold, he didn't expect that someone would dare to trouble him face to face, he said coldly: "Your Excellency may have misjudged the wrong person, Bai'er is me from..."

"Marquis Wen, why are you deceiving yourself and others, you know..." Li Ao shook his head and smiled, interrupting Lu Bu's words, without realizing that this was an extremely impolite behavior.What's more, his status and Lu Bu's status are very different.

Seeing that this man didn't know what to do, Lu Bu immediately became angry. A mere right doctor with a rank of three hundred stones dared to be so presumptuous.

Lu Bu didn't have to be polite to him when he was given a step up before, and treated him in his own way, interrupting Li Ao's words before he finished speaking, and suddenly shouted: "Get out!"

This roar scared everyone in the field.Many people's bodies trembled and trembled.

Li Ao choked on the words he hadn't spoken yet, and stood there in embarrassment, obviously a little confused.He looked around for help, but no one was willing to stand up and speak for him.

Think about it too, who would be stupid enough to turn against Lu Bu for an irrelevant person.What's more, Lu Bu's move was obviously to keep the woman, but Li Ao insisted on standing up, thinking that he represented justice, and it was nothing but death.

"Didn't you hear what Marquis Wen said? Tell you to get out!"

Ding Gong, who was the master of ceremonies, turned to face Li Ao and scolded at the same time.He had met Li Ao a few times before, and he thought he was a polite and sensible young man, but now it seems that he is simply stupid.

"Get out! Get out! Get out..."

With Ding Gong taking the lead, a group of cliques attached to Lu Bu suddenly had an idea, and clamored for Li Ao to get out of Lu's residence.Some people even cursed loudly, scolding Li Ao bloody.

"You, you... read the books of sages in vain!"

Li Ao pointed at those who scolded him, trembling with anger, and even his accent became a little awkward.

The guards of Lu Mansion stepped forward to drag Li Ao away, but Li Ao struggled to break free, and said with great backbone: "You don't need to pull me, I will go by myself! This kind of banquet with a nest of snakes and rats, you don't need to participate!"

Hearing these words, the officials present all had angry expressions on their faces. Li Ao's sentence of 'a nest of snakes and rats' was tantamount to scolding them all.

Lu Bu waved his hand, signaling that he should not be bothered.

After leaving Lu Mansion, Li Ao, who was walking on the road, felt more and more aggrieved, so he simply ran to the palace and reported Lu Bu to the emperor.

"You Langzhong, you read wrong."

Hearing this, Grand Tutor Ma Rixun was slightly taken aback, and then said very flatly, wanting to give his student a last hand.

Ma Rixun knew about Lu Bu's adoptive daughter today, because he wanted to teach the emperor, he couldn't go there in person, but he also sent someone to present a congratulatory gift.

It stands to reason that Ma Rizun, who is a teacher, has said so, and Li Ao should also use the slope to get off the donkey.However, Lu Bu's 'get out' made him lose all face. He just couldn't swallow the breath, and said to the emperor and his mentor, "Your Majesty, Tai Tuo, I'm absolutely right. I'm [-]% sure that Lu Bu wants to The adopted daughter is Dong Zhuo's granddaughter, Dong Bai!"

"Since You Langzhong has made such a conclusion, I will ask Lu Qing face-to-face in the court tomorrow morning. If it is true as you said, I will not tolerate it."

Liu Xie, who was deeply poisoned by Dong Zhuo, naturally couldn't tolerate the existence of Dong's blood, so he said it very decisively.On his small body, he finally had a trace of the aura that an emperor should have.

The next day, early morning.

In the hall of Xuanshi, Liu Xie was sitting on the emperor's throne, his eyes fell on Lu Bu, and he asked in a low voice: "Lu Qing, I heard that you accepted a prostitute yesterday, is there such a thing?"

Lu Bu came out, pressed down the wat board in his hand, and replied: "Thank you for your majesty's concern, this is indeed the case."

"However, I have heard that this woman is the queen of Dong Bandit. I don't know if it is true or not?"

"Your Majesty, there is absolutely no such thing!"

A cold light flashed across Lu Bu's eyes, and he answered firmly that he would never admit to this matter.As for who told the secret, he knew it well.

"How does Lu Qing prove it?" the emperor asked aloud.

As he grows older, Liu Xie is also growing slowly, knowing and understanding more and more things.He won't be easily fooled just because of the two words that Lu Bu said casually.

Lu Bu, who was bowing in the hall, raised his head slightly without a trace, glanced up at the emperor, and replied loudly: "His Majesty, on Dong Bai's tenth birthday, his grandfather Dong Zhuo once held a banquet in the mansion. Almost all the officials came to congratulate. I think all the ministers and ministers who came to the hall should still have impressions, and there are not a few who recognize Dong Bai. Therefore, your majesty might as well call the minister's adopted daughter into the hall, so that everyone can distinguish , Is the adopted daughter whom I have adopted is Dong Zhuo's orphan!"
