Chapter 70 Zhang Zhongjing arrives! (Thanks to my brother Shengci for the reward and support~( ° °))

After some comfort, Yan Qingqing and Huang Yueying finally stopped crying.

Yan Qingqing looked at Lu Bu's guilty expression and reached out to touch his cheek:
"Don't blame yourself, my husband. It's all because the enemy is too cunning, not your fault."

Lu Bu shook his head slightly:

"It was my dereliction of duty if I did not investigate the loopholes in Jiangxia's defense.

“Besides, the number of troops I left in Xiling City is too small. If I had left even 500 more, the situation would have been much better.

"From now on, I will definitely leave as many troops as possible to defend the place where you are!"

Huang Yueying, who was no longer wearing her veil, held Lü Bu's thick and long fingers, and said with a smile:
"Let's not talk about this anymore, at least we are all safe.

"By the way, my husband, are you going back to Nanjun after you come back this time?"

Lu Bu touched the heart-shaped scar on Huang Yueying's face and smiled slightly:
"I won't be going back for now. I've handed the matter over there to Kuai Liang, Hou Cheng, and Song Xian.

"It took a lot of troops and food to take over Nanjun this time. We need to rest for a while."

"Great! Daddy can play with me again!"

Lu Lingqi on the side jumped up happily.

Lu Bu smiled and rubbed his daughter's head.

Compared to half a year ago, she has grown a lot taller at the age of twelve.

She is almost 1.6 meters tall, almost catching up with her mother.

But Lu Bu knew that this was not her limit.

As a female military commander who inherited the excellent genes of the most powerful general in the world, she will be able to grow to at least 1.7 meters tall or even taller in the future!

But she still has the mentality of a little girl. All she does every day is practice martial arts and play.

Just as Lu Bu was about to say something, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure out of the corner of his eye.

He turned his head suddenly and saw the maid Xiaobai secretly watching them from the moon-shaped door not far away.

After being discovered by Lu Bu, a look of panic appeared on the pretty boy's face.

But she didn't dodge, she just lowered her head.

"Come here." Lu Bu waved to Xiaobai.

Xiaobai hesitated for a moment, then nervously walked up to Lu Bu, twisting his two fingers together nervously.

Lu Bu looked at Xiaobai's pink and tender face with some baby fat and reached out to pinch it.

Being touched by a man like this, Xiaobai's face turned slightly red, but her mood was very complicated.

Lu Bu said softly:
"Xiaobai is fine, that's great."

Xiaobai raised his head, a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes:
"Xiaobai is just a small servant, not worthy of the master's concern..."

"Servant?"

Lu Bu curled his lips:
"Who treated you as a servant? I have always treated you as a member of this family."

Xiaobai opened his eyes wide and his heartbeat inexplicably began to speed up.

A warm feeling gradually lingered in my heart.

Yan Qingqing also came over with a smile and held her little hand:
"Yes, sister Xiaobai. Don't think too lowly of yourself.

"When my husband took you in, he didn't want you to be a slave, he just wanted to find you a job.

"We have been together for such a long time, and I have always regarded you as my sister."

Hearing these words, Xiaobai recalled their usual attitude towards him and realized that they were all very good people.

But when she thought about how her grandfather died at the hands of the man in front of her, she still found it difficult to integrate herself into this family.

After thinking for so long, she has realized that her grandfather brought this upon himself.

The world did become much more peaceful after he was gone, and the people lived happier lives than before.

And through her identity as a maid, she also witnessed how hard life was for the lower class people.

When I think about the fact that my extravagant life was built on the suffering of the people at the bottom, I feel really sad.

She felt more and more that she deserved to die.

She is none other than the granddaughter of the notorious devil king Dong Zhuo - Dong Bai!
At first, she followed Lu Bu because she wanted to find an opportunity to assassinate Lu Bu and avenge her grandfather.

But after a few months of getting along, I saw that the other party managed Lujiang and Jiangxia in an orderly manner, and provided countless displaced people with a place to live and eat.

The view of Lu Bu gradually changed from hatred to admiration.

The idea of ​​revenge was also given up unconsciously.

After all, killing such a good man is equivalent to making countless ordinary people lose a lucky star.

This is also a sin for her.

So now, she is more thinking of atonement, and continues to stay in this family...

Seeing Dong Bai lowering her head and keeping silent, Lu Bu, who already knew her true identity, did not say much.

He just smiled at Yan Qingqing, who also knew the inside story.

……

The following month, Lu Bu held a grand memorial service for Cao Xing who died in battle.

It not only commemorated Cao Xing's dedication during his lifetime, but also inspired other soldiers and enhanced their loyalty and sense of collective honor.

Afterwards, Lu Bu received news from Chang'an City.

Liu Xie sent a large army to capture Tianshui County and killed Niu Fu and Li Ru.

This news further proves Lu Bu's previous conjecture:

There must be other reborn people around Emperor Xian of Han, Liu Xie.

Even Liu Xie himself might be the reborn one!
This is not a good thing for Lu Bu.

Once the other party issues an edict asking him to do something that is disadvantageous to him, if he refuses, he is disobeying the order!

Once you disobey the order, the other party will have an excuse to attack you personally or let other princes attack you.

But at least he helped the other side get rid of Dong Zhuo, a serious threat.

At least before their territories border each other, the other party should not be overly hostile to him.

This can be seen from the fact that he had previously recommended Zhou Hui and Liu Qi as the prefects of the two counties, and the other party did not refuse.

But if Liu Xie is really a reborn person.

With the memories of the past life and the bonus of the current identity, the start will definitely be smoother than any other force.

I hope I can rise before the other party...

In addition, because of his contribution in eliminating Liu Biao, Lu Bu was promoted to General Pingnan by Liu Xie.

From an ordinary third-rank general to the forefront of third-rank generals!

But if you want to go further, you need to gain more merit or occupy more territory.

On this day, Lu Bu was listening to Liu Ye's report that Yuan Shu was planning to march into Jiujiang County.

Zhang Liao suddenly reported with surprise:

"My lord, the miraculous doctor Zhang Ji is here!"

"Oh?"

Lu Bu immediately stood up and walked to the gate of the prefect's mansion.

I saw a sturdy middle-aged man carrying a medicine box, waiting quietly at the door.

When Zhang Zhongjing saw Lu Bu running out to greet him with big strides, a smile appeared on his face.

This Marquis Lu Wen is still as enthusiastic as the first time we met.

Lu Bu stepped forward, shook Zhang Zhongjing's hand, and said in surprise:

"After waiting for so long, the gentleman finally came!"

Zhang Zhongjing laughed happily and said:

"You are too polite, Lord Wen. I heard about Lord Wen's heroic deeds in Nanyang.

“Not only did we capture Jiangxia and Nanjun, we also brought millions of refugees into the country and properly resettled them.

“I admire this noble act very much.

"Now that the plague in Nieyang County has been eradicated, I have resigned from my official position and come to lend a helping hand to Marquis Wen!"
