Three Kingdoms: I choose Xiao Qiao and Da Qiao, why are you crying, Diao Chan?

Chapter 464: Seeing the Letter is Like Meeting (Thanks to the two loyal monthly ticket supporters, When to Recruit Zhao Yun and Xiao Jiuweiliang~)
Seeing Lu Bu thinking, Mi Zhen, who was standing on the other side of the impeller, suddenly said:

"Since the handle on one side is more tiring to crank, why not add another handle on my side?

"It should be less laborious to shake both sides at the same time, right?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes lit up!
Lu Bu couldn't help but smile approvingly:

"As expected of my woman, you are quite smart!"

Being praised in public by her husband, Mi Zhen's face turned red and she giggled foolishly in embarrassment.

Just as Lü Bu walked out of his bedroom and was about to go to the Engineering Department to improve the impeller, Zhou Yu suddenly walked towards him quickly:

"Lord, good news!"

Seeing Zhou Yu's excited face, Lu Bu asked curiously:

"What made Gongjin so happy?"

Zhou Yu smiled mysteriously, approached Lu Bu and whispered:
"I sent someone to follow Xiahou Dun out of the city and successfully found the place where Cao Cao was hiding!
"As long as the lord gives the order, I can immediately lead my men to capture Cao Cao!"

After hearing this, Lu Bu fell silent.

Now he still needs to use the six generals of the Cao family. If he captures Cao Cao now, he will probably fall out with the six generals of the Cao family.

And recently there were rumors in the city that he was going to kill Cao Cao.

Although he felt that Cao Cao should be able to see through such rumors.

But if I take action now, it will undoubtedly confirm the rumors...

While he was thinking, Zhou Yu said another thing:

"By the way, my lord, I heard that Cao Cao's old subordinates, Generals Li Dian and Le Jin, came to look for Xiahou Dun."

As soon as these words came out, Lu Bu immediately became expressionless:

"Li Dian and Le Jin? Xiahou Dun went to see Cao Cao only after the two of them arrived?"

Zhou Yu nodded solemnly.

Lu Bu immediately frowned:
"These two generals, Li Dian and Le Jin, definitely did not escape on their own. They must have been sent by Liu Xie or Zhuge Liang.

"I'm afraid there is some conspiracy behind this..."

Zhou Yu stroked his chin and said:
"Combined with the recent rumors in the city, could it be that... a certain force wants to force Cao Cao to leave the lord's territory?

“But both the emperor and Zhuge Liang had strong ill will towards Cao Cao.

"How could Cao Cao agree to leave?
"Even if Cao Cao realizes that we may attack him in the future, at least for now he is safest only in our military territory."

Listening to Zhou Yu's speculation, Lu Bu pondered for a moment, then made up his mind:

"Imagination is not a solution. So, Gongjin, come with me to pay a visit to Cao Mengde!

"Don't make it public, it's just you and me."

Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment, but soon understood Lu Bu's intention and immediately bowed in agreement.

Then the two of them changed into casual clothes, each rode an ordinary horse, and headed towards Hechai Village in the east of the city.

Hechai Village is neither close nor far from Wancheng. It is indeed a good place that is quiet and not too remote.

"According to Ding Feng's tracking of Xiahou Dun, he found that he finally entered Hechai Village.

"But he didn't follow up rashly, and came back directly to report the situation to me."

After listening to Zhou Yu's words, Lu Bu finally understood why he failed to find Zhou Yu the last time.

It seems that the other party is busy finding out where Cao Cao is hiding.

As for Ding Feng, he was trained to do these shady things like tracking and ambushing...

While Lu Bu was thinking about this, the two had already arrived at the entrance of the village.

When the people at the entrance of the village saw them, they were not as surprised as they had imagined.

There must be people who look glamorous and good-looking coming to the village frequently, so they are no longer surprised.

Lu Bu looked at a peasant woman who looked plump and said:

"Madam, may I ask if there are any distinguished people living in your village recently?" Upon hearing this question, the peasant woman immediately became alert and waved her hand:

"No, no."

Looking at the other party's appearance, Lu Bu knew that the other party must be hiding something.

It seems that the people in this village have been bribed by Cao Cao and his men, and will not easily tell others where Cao Cao is.

Seeing this, Lu Bu could only reveal his identity and said:

"I am Lu Bu, Lu Fengxian! I am the master of Wancheng and even the entire Lujiang County.

"Madam, you don't want everyone in this village to die because of you, do you?"

The peasant woman's eyes suddenly widened. She obviously didn't expect that the tall and handsome man in front of her was actually the legendary Lord Chu!
She never thought that she would be able to see the other person's true face in her lifetime!

After all, this Lord Chu is a great benefactor who enables these ordinary people like them to live a happy life!

And from what the other party said, if I don't tell him where the man is, he might kill everyone in the village!
She may not care about others, but she herself does not want to die!
There's no need to risk your life for a lustful man...

Thinking of this, she nodded quickly and said:
"I will take you there right away!"

Seeing that the peasant woman could see clearly what was going on, Lu Bu smiled with satisfaction:

"Don't worry, I just want to discuss something with that person. I won't harm him."

The peasant woman breathed a sigh of relief and immediately took the two of them to the wooden house where Cao Cao lived.

At this moment, the wooden door of the house was closed, and a hint of doubt appeared in the peasant woman's eyes.

At this time normally, the other party would be hanging out outside the village, so the shop shouldn't be closed.

Could it be that he discovered the arrival of these two strangers and ran away early?
Come to think of it, I haven’t seen each other much today…

"This is it. That man...he said his name is Xiahou Cao, and he lives here."

Lu Bu took out a silver ingot from his arms and handed it to the peasant woman:
"Thank you ma'am for showing me the way. This is a thank you gift for you."

When the peasant woman saw the silver ingot as big as a baby's fist, she was overjoyed and expressed her gratitude repeatedly.

Lu Bu and Zhou Yu dismounted from their horses and went straight to the wooden house.

Lu Bu said loudly to the wooden door:

"Brother Mengde, how are you? Fengxian came to visit you today."

After these words were spoken, there was silence in the room for a long time.

Lu Bu and Zhou Yu looked at each other, and the latter went straight to the back window of the wooden house and was surprised to find that the back window was open!

I looked inside the house through the window and there was no one inside!
However, Zhou Yu noticed that there was a letter on the table in the room.

He immediately climbed in through the window and opened the door from the inside.

Seeing this, Lu Bu probably guessed what was going on in the house, so he walked straight into the house.

The furnishings in the house were not complicated, but it was obviously much cleaner and tidier than those of ordinary villagers.

Zhou Yu picked up the letter on the desk and handed it directly to Lu Bu.

Lu Bu opened it and saw the following words written on it:

"Yuan Rang personally wrote:
“When you see this letter, I will have left.

“Since the world does not tolerate me, I can only retire to the mountains, change my name, and start over.

"I hope you and Miaocai, Zixiao, Zilian, Zixiu, and Zihe will serve effectively under Lü Bu.

"I believe that without me, Lu Bu will not embarrass you anymore.

"I think the one who will conquer the world must be one of the two families, Lü and Liu. Compared with the Liu family who want to kill me, I hope that the Lü family will become emperor.

"If we are destined to meet again in the future, I hope you all take care!

"Cao Mengde stayed."
