Chapter 682
Not long after, the manager of the mansion came to report that Mr. Situ had sent someone to send an invitation to Lv Bu to visit the mansion.

Ever since Lu Bu's class teacher returned to the court, Wang Yun, as a situ, has shown great hospitality, and sent people to invite Lu Bu to a banquet every now and then.Wang Yun remembered very clearly that when Lv Bu went out to fight, he personally promised himself that he would definitely visit him when he came back.

However, Lu Bu seemed to have forgotten about it long ago. He was busy preparing for the rescue of the victims recently, so he didn't have the time to go to Wang Yun's mansion to eat, drink and have fun.

"Boss, you came back for me. Just say that I'm busy with business recently, and I'll go to Situ's mansion to bother you after I've been busy for a while." Lu Bu dismissed Wang Yun's invitation lightly. In the current situation, there are still many things to worry about. Waiting for him to handle it himself.

Later, Lu Bu sent someone to call Zhang Liao, Xu Huang and other confidant generals.

"Lord!"

After the meeting, Zhang Liao and the others cupped their fists in salute.

Lu Bu let the generals sit down, and then slowly said: "You should all know the situation in Guanzhong now. The drought is severe everywhere, and the people can hardly have food and clothing. Therefore, until the drought is completely resolved, I will not go out to attack Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and other princes from all over the world."

If the people can't get enough to eat, naturally there will be no surplus food to hand over to the court.

If the imperial court couldn't pay for food, it couldn't afford the huge consumption of the war.

Speaking of this, Lu Bu also told Zhang Liao and others about the matters discussed this morning.

After hearing this, Zhang Liao showed a little worry on his face: "My lord wants the aristocratic families from all over the world to collect 400 million shi for food relief. This is not a small amount. How can those aristocratic families agree?"

Zhang Liao is a descendant of an aristocratic family. Compared with Huang Zhong and Xu Huang who came from poor backgrounds, he obviously understands the management methods of aristocratic inheritance better.

Lu Bu asked for 400 million shi of grain as soon as he opened his mouth, which undoubtedly cost them half their lives.If these aristocratic families are really forced to jump over the wall and unite with outsiders, it will be very bad.

After listening to Zhang Liao's detailed analysis, all the generals nodded in agreement.

Whether it is business or combat, you are not afraid of how powerful the enemy is, but you are afraid of having a ghost in your own family.

A fire in the backyard can often be fatal.

It was precisely because Lu Bu understood the key point that Zhang Liao and others were called here.

"My lord wants me to monitor those families?" Xu Huang, who was sitting second from the right, asked for instructions with some uncertainty.

Lv Bu said 'hmm' and nodded lightly. Surveillance is secondary, and the most important thing is to use force to deter.

"In the name of clearing up the thieves, I will send you to Hanoi, Hedong, Luoyang, Bingzhou and other places to help transport the food prepared by the big families. In addition, I will entrust you with the right to kill first and then play, During this period, if anyone drags their feet and sells dog meat, you will be accused of colluding with bandits and directly ransacking the house."

Lu Bu said categorically that in extraordinary times, extraordinary measures must be used.

"Follow the order!"

All the generals clasped their fists together. At first they were really afraid of clashing with the local aristocratic family. Now with Lu Bu's words, it is undoubtedly equivalent to having the sword of Shang Fang who supervised the beheading, and they are full of confidence.

This errand seems to be extremely simple, but in fact it is not the slightest mistake.My lord is so caring, if it is done beautifully, it must be a great achievement, if it is not done well, accountability will definitely not escape.

The group of generals under Lu Bu's command were all competing secretly in private.

After a night.

Chang'an in Yinshi was still pitch-black, and candlelight was lit in a certain bedroom of Da Sima's mansion.

In front of the bronze mirror, Lu Bu stood upright, and his virtuous wife in front of him was changing the red court dress he wore when going to court.

"Ma'am, for these trivial matters, you can just call the servant girl, you should sleep a little longer."

Looking at the small dark circles under his wife's eyes that couldn't be concealed, Lu Bu felt a little distressed. For the past two years, he has been fighting outside and has no time to take care of his family.

The big and small affairs of the family are all taken care of by the wife.

Others say that marrying a general who has been fighting abroad all year round is actually not much different from being a widow.

Lu Bu lowered his head to look at his wife. Ever since he came back, Wei Niang's beautiful face always showed a peaceful smile, which made him feel warm and heartwarming, but at the same time, he also felt a bit of unexplainable guilt.

Gentle, virtuous, considerate, generous, it seems that all the beautiful words in this world can be used on a wife.

Especially after knowing his wife's righteous deeds to help the victims, Lu Bu felt happy from the bottom of his heart, and was moved by his wife's kindness.

But what about yourself?

Except for drinking blood and fighting on the battlefield, there is only fear that makes the world watch from afar.

Lu Bu looked at his lover in front of him, and was a little fascinated for a while.

"Husband, why are you staring at this concubine like this? Is there something dirty on my face?" Sensing her husband's strange gaze, Yan Wei hurriedly turned around and looked carefully at the bronze mirror in front of her.

After all, in this world, every woman wants to show her best side to the man she loves.

Seeing Wei Niang's nervous appearance like a little girl, Lu Bu laughed loudly, sucked his wife's face abruptly, and grinned cheekily: "Wei Niang, you are so pretty!"

Hongxia immediately flew up to her cheeks, seeing Lu Bu's simple and honest appearance just like back then, Yan Wei spit lightly, saying that they are old couples, and the husband is not serious.

In my heart, it was like being wrapped in honey, sweet.

However, Yan Wei didn't know what kind of scene this big, silly man in front of her would be in the turbulent court.

At the first moment of Maoshi, it was the time of the court meeting. All the officials took off their swords around their waists, took off their boots and stepped into the main hall of Weiyang Palace.

As the great Sima, Lu Bu is no exception.

"Your Majesty is here~~~" After the court officials arrived, they waited for a while, and then heard a high-pitched communication.

All the officials in the palace bowed their bodies and said in unison: "The ministers welcome Your Majesty, Your Majesty will last forever!"

Guided by a group of eunuchs from the Huang family, Liu Xie walked to the throne, opened his sleeves, sat down and said to the officials: "Your servants are free of courtesy, and you will be flat."

Only then did the officials stand up slightly, and went to their respective positions to kneel down.

As the great Sima, Lu Bu knelt and sat at the head of all the officials, and the three princes had to be behind him.

"Gentlemen, do you have something important to announce?" Liu Xie, who was sitting on the throne, asked aloud.

The officials below did not say anything, they had their own thoughts in their hearts.

Seeing that no one made a sound, Liu Xie was happy to see the success, "Since Qing and others have nothing to do, then we will retreat from the court."

Before the word "chao" was uttered, Lu Bu, who was sitting in front of Sangong, sat up straight first, turned his head and glanced around all the officials, saw an empty seat behind him, and inadvertently asked: "Why didn't you see me today?" Is the imperial censor going to court?"
