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

Chapter 596 Birthday Gifts
Hearing Lu Bu's call, Guan Hai from outside the tent walked in with his head drooping.

His armor was disheveled and his face was disheveled, like a real beggar.

Seeing Guan Hai in such a state of distress, Lu Bu's heart sank two points, and his voice became a little colder: "Why did you become like this?"

With a plop, Guan Hai knelt down on the ground, buried his head and did not dare to look at Lu Bu, but gritted his teeth unwillingly and blamed himself: "My lord, don't be damned, I missed the bandit general's plan, and the whole army was defeated!"

"what!"

Lu Bu, who was surprised to hear about this, looked at Guan Hai with a stern look in his eyes.He suppressed his anger and asked: "When you left, how did you promise me! This is the result you gave me?"

The sound echoed in the tent.

Lu Bu never thought that Guan Hai would be defeated so badly. According to the information he got, the Baibo thieves were nothing more than thieves who filled the crowd with numbers, and their combat effectiveness might not be as good as the local county soldiers.

And Guan Hai's soldiers and horses were all moth bandits, and with daily hard training, their strength could definitely crush the white wave bandits.But now, Guan Hai actually told himself that they lost, not to mention thousands of deaths, and nearly three thousand were captured by the bandits.

Such a big defeat, if Lu Bu is not angry, then there will be ghosts.

Guan Hai saw that Lu Bu was angry, he knocked his head on the back of his hand lying on the ground, and took the initiative to plead guilty: "The general knows that he has failed the lord. Even if he dies, he will not be able to escape the blame! But the thief will run rampant and capture many of my brothers and feet. Please give me another chance, my lord, I will definitely be able to break through Dongyuan, and I will be ashamed!"

Lu Bu was not talking to Guan Hai. He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then exhaled heavily.

He didn't open his eyes until his mind was calm, most of the anger in his chest had dissipated, and he asked Guan Hai: "Do you know the name of the thief general?"

Guan Hai hurriedly replied: "The thief will call himself 'Xu Gongming', a native of Hedong."

"Xu Gongming?"

Lu Bu muttered a few times, unable to remember such a number one person in his mind, he waved his hand to let Guan Hai back down.

The guilty Guan Hai didn't dare touch Lu Bu's head again, so he had to bow out of the tent.

"Chen Wei, send me an order that all the soldiers will leave the camp early tomorrow morning. I will enter Hedong within two days!"

Lu Bu gave orders aloud, and after Chen Wei complied, he threw the ball in his hand and ordered: "Also, find a confidant, send this back to Chang'an, and hand it over to Madam or Little Bell, Said it was my birthday present to her."

"Yes, General!"

Chen Wei caught the thrown ball, and then slowly exited the tent.

…………

On the eighth day of June, in Chang'an City, Da Sima Mansion.

This morning, Lu Mansion received many congratulatory gifts, big and small, which filled the inner courtyard of the hall.

There is no other reason, but because today is the birthday of Da Sima's daughter, officials in the court and some localities sent gifts one after another to win Da Sima's appreciation in order to please Ba and Lv Bu.

Lv Bu did not return from the expedition, and Yan Wei, who was in charge of housework at home, did not refuse, and asked the steward to accept these things, record them all, and then ordered the steward: "Find a time, sell these jades and jewelry, and exchange them for food. , so that it can be used to relieve poor people everywhere!"

Lu Bu was not at home, Yan Wei had the final say on all matters in the mansion.

The steward has stayed in the mansion for so many years, so he still understands this very well.

Lv Bu's hands were stained with blood. As his wife, Yan Wei was worried about retribution, so she often helped the poor people, accumulated evil virtues for Lv Bu, and chanted scriptures to pray that those souls who died in Lv Bu's hands would be reincarnated as soon as possible.

"Where's the little bell?"

After finishing the chores in the mansion, Yan Wei straightened her temple hair and asked the steward.

The steward who was counting the presents stopped his movements, and replied respectfully: "If you go back to Madam, the young lady is playing with the second young master and the others in the backyard."

In the backyard, more than a dozen small figures were chasing vigorously.

The content of the game is probably some role-playing games in which officers and soldiers catch thieves, and all the friends have a great time playing it.

Different from the generation of Zhang Liao and Ma Chao, Zhang Liao and others have gradually grown up and started to devote themselves to the battlefield, or slowly entered the official career, while the generation of Xiaolingdang has just started.

As we all know, Da Sima especially loves Little Bell, so this small army is headed by Lu Lingqi, and its members include Han Long, Cao Jun, Lu Xiao and other naughty and rebellious boys.

Tired of playing, the children sat on the ground to rest, and the little bell asked the servant to bring fruit to share with the children.

The children were all happy, sitting apart, gnawing on the courgettes imported from the Western Regions, and smacking their mouths.Among them was a little boy with rosaceous nose and sharp eyes, and he praised his similar playmate next to him: "Boman, the jade pendant on your waist is really beautiful."

Hearing these words, a group of children all looked over.

Sure enough, the jade pendant was crystal clear and flawless, it was the top-grade perilla jade, which made people feel comfortable.

The little boy who became the focus of everyone was very proud, and raised his head: "Of course, my father said that this piece of jade is worth a lot of money, and it can buy a big house with more than a dozen rooms!"

"Wow, your father is so kind to you!"

The little boy with rosaceous nose exclaimed, and the rest of the friends were envious when they heard about it.

Children, like to show off the contrast, there is nothing wrong with it.

"Little Bell, what did your father give you?" Someone asked curiously.

Little Bell raised her fingers and counted them carefully: "The bell on my waist, wooden drum, bamboo horse, small wooden halberd, flower basket, paper kite...these are all gifts from my father.

My mother said, these are priceless treasures! "

Little Lingdang puffed out her chest, and spoke quite proudly, the little smugness on her face was clearly visible.

"Tch, those things of yours are worthless at all, you can buy them anywhere in the street, and they can be regarded as gifts? It seems that your father definitely doesn't like you."

Unwilling to be compared to others, the little boy taunted him, wanting to take the opportunity to raise his 'prestige' among his friends.

But how could Little Lingdang tolerate others speaking ill of her father, not to mention, her mother would never lie to herself!
She immediately puffed up her cheeks, glared at the little boy angrily, and scolded softly, "You are talking nonsense!"

At this time, the little boy was also more serious, refused to back down, and yelled loudly: "I'm not talking nonsense, if you don't believe me, just ask someone to see if it's what I said?"

"If you talk nonsense again, I'll beat you!" Little Bell wrinkled her nose, her face was full of anger, and she clenched her little pink fists tightly, like a little tiger cat showing its might.

"Hmph, that's the way it is, don't you still want me to lie!"

The little boy resolutely refused to admit his mistake, so he slammed his pink fist hard into his face.
