Rebirth of Lu Bu, the tyrant of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 204, the plan failed and was expelled from the five counties of Xuzhou

With the power of Baihong's sword, a burst of cold light burst out.

The two bandits were taken aback.

One of them said loudly, "Go and kill that frail scholar, and I'll stop this little thief."

The other bandit nodded, a fierce light flashed in his eyes, he raised his long knife and rushed towards Lu Su.

Baihong's complexion moved slightly, and he shouted violently, "I'm courting death."

The poor bandit wanted to block Baihong, but a bloodstain had already been drawn on his neck.

There was a pause, and then a blood arrow shot out, splashing blood on the spot.

Seeing this, the other person's eyes flashed with horror, and he quickly accelerated his speed and strode towards Lu Su to kill him.

Lu Su is just a Confucian scholar, facing the sudden killer, he is no match.

Fortunately, he was calm by nature, unruffled when he was in danger, so he quickly sat up and raised the wooden pillow in his hand to resist.

The bandit slashed down with his sword, and the wooden sleeper was instantly broken into two pieces, which shows the sharpness of this long sword.

Seeing that bandit slashed at Lu Su again, Lu Su let out an exclamation.

Baihong's eyes shot out a fierce light, and his whole body was filled with murderous aura.

The long sword in his hand was thrown out immediately, and the speed of the sword was instantly increased by [-]% compared to usual.

This style was learned by Bai Hong when he saw Gai Nie using the Hundred-Step Flying Sword. Although it is not as powerful as the Hundred-Step Flying Sword, it has five points of similarity.

The long sword pierced the sky, humming softly.

"Whoosh" sound.

The long sword had already penetrated into the bandit's back, and the blood stained Lu Su's bed red.

At this time, dozens of guards rushed over from the surrounding area.

The potters also lived nearby, and rushed over in just their nightgowns.

After all, Lu Su was really important to him.

"Zijing, are you okay?" The potter said with concern on his face.

Lu Su wiped the blood from his face, he was really scared for a moment just now.

Bai Hong still looked calm, everything was under his control, so naturally he would not let Lu Su make any mistakes.

Gently pulled out the long sword stuck on the wall and wiped off the blood on it.

"Don't worry, Zijing, with me, Baihong, I will definitely protect you," Baihong said.

Lu Su was still in shock, and nodded slightly.

The pottery kicked the man in black next to the bed with some fear, "Who are these people, and why did they come to assassinate Zijing?"

Lu Su glanced at the potter, and then said, "Do I need to say this, it's time for us to start fighting back."

The pottery merchant seemed to think of Tao Ying in an instant, and said angrily, "This kid is going against the sky, and he dares to attack brother Zijing. Let's see how I deal with him."

Lu Su grabbed the potter, "Don't be too impulsive, just rush out like this now, if he refuses to admit it, what can you do to him."

Tao Shang said, "Then what should we do?"

A gleam flashed in Lu Su's eyes, and he said calmly, "Take the brakes with stillness and wait for the changes. Naturally, someone will take care of them."

Although the pottery merchant was still full of doubts, all the things in the past few days had been within Lu Su's expectations. The pottery merchant had already obeyed Lu Su's words, and as long as Lu Su said something, he felt it was right.

On the second day, Tao Qian heard about Lu Su's assassination early in the morning. With his many years of experience in the officialdom, he naturally knew what was going on.

Besides the second son, Tao Ying, who else wanted Lu Su to die.

Then he sighed softly, his head felt like a needle-like pain, coughed a few times, and his bones became worse day by day.

But he has seen the two sons since they were young, and Tao Qian really knows what kind of people they are.

He also knew that Lu Su possessed a great talent and was by no means an ordinary person, but he also knew very well the potter's ability. Even if the position of governor was given to him, he would definitely not be able to keep it, and it might even cause war.

Tao Qian has long discovered that his second son, Tao Ying, has been a little abnormal recently.

On weekdays, he knows to be idle, and never cares about the affairs of the state and county, but recently he suddenly became enthusiastic, and the whole person became very diligent, and even rushed to do some things.

Although it seemed to be a good thing, Tao Qian also knew that there must be something wrong, and had already sent someone to follow Tao Ying secretly.

Sure enough, it was discovered that he had secretly colluded with Liu Bei, the county magistrate of Pingyuan.

Only now did Tao Qian see Liu Bei's true face clearly. Liu Bei was known as a loyal and brave man, but now he looked more like a treacherous villain. He was willing to send troops to help him before, probably because of this position of governor.

The more Tao Qian thought about it, the more excited he became in his heart, and then coughed a few times again, the phlegm was already mixed with blood, and his body became weaker and weaker.

Tao Qian knew that his life was not long, so he made a plan. When he was dying, he must eradicate Liu Bei, the scourge.

But right now he doesn't have any evidence, so he plans to hold a Hongmen banquet to get rid of this treacherous Liu Bei.

The next day, Tao Qian entertained the prefects and generals of various prefectures and counties in the mansion, and even asked Liu Bei, the county magistrate of Pingyuan, to be called.

Liu Bei was overjoyed, it was rare for Tao Gong to think highly of him, so he quickly went alone.

After drinking for three rounds, Tao Qian said in a weak voice, "I have heard for a long time that Xuande is the descendant of Gaozu, a nobleman of the royal family, and a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty.

Right now, my body is not as good as it is, and my two sons are incompetent people. I am afraid that there will be no one to govern the five counties of Xuzhou."

A look of joy flashed in Liu Bei's eyes, and Tao Qian suddenly said these words to himself. Could it be that he wanted to give him the five counties of Xuzhou?

Although he was overjoyed in his heart, he forcibly suppressed the excitement in his heart.

The tone was gentle and said, "Mr. Tao is in good health and loves the people like a son. Under your command, the five counties of Xuzhou are in good health and the weather is good. How can the five counties of Xuzhou do without Mr. Tao?"

Tao Qian smiled softly, "Haha, Xuande is serious. I, Tao Qian, are indeed old. Xuande is the empress of Gaozu, a nobleman of the royal family. Why don't I give up the five prefectures of Xuzhou to Xuande?"

Then he took out Xuzhou Mu's seal and put it on the table.

Liu Bei was ecstatic in his heart, wishing he could laugh wildly.

After calming down the excitement in his heart, he said calmly, "If Tao Gong is really ill and unable to take care of the affairs of the five counties of Xuzhou, Xuande can indeed take care of it for him."

When Tao Qian heard Liu Bei's words, the anger that had been pent up for a long time burst out instantly.

He slammed the table and said angrily, "Liu Bei, I knew you had no good intentions and wanted to plot against me in the five counties of Xuzhou.

He also secretly lobbied his second son, Tao Ying, so that the two brothers turned against each other, and someone came here to take off Liu Bei and chop him up."

Dozens of school swordsmen rushed in immediately and surrounded Liu Bei.

Liu Bei did not bring any entourage with him on this trip, and he was indeed terrified right now.

Tao Qian's famous scholar Zhao Yu said, "My lord, don't kill Liu Bei. There are more than [-] troops stationed in Pingyuan County, and Yuwen Chengdu under his command is a fierce general who dared to fight General Lu Bu for [-] rounds and was defeated.

Zhang Yide from Yan can also be worth a thousand, if we kill Liu Bei, Yuwen Chengdu and Zhang Fei lead troops to kill, how can we resist."

Tao Qian frowned and thought for a moment, what Zhao Yu said was indeed reasonable.

"Then what does Lord Zhao think should be done?"

Zhao Yudao, "Your Excellency is the governor of a state. You can go to the court to remove Liu Bei from the post of county magistrate in Pingyuan, and expel him from Xuzhou County. There is no need to conflict with him."

Tao Qian nodded, "Master Zhao, what you say makes sense."

Then he said loudly, "Liu Bei, you must hurry up and lead your troops to leave the five counties of Xuzhou, otherwise I will join forces with General Qin Qiong to attack you."

Liu Bei couldn't steal chickens and lose money, and he was about to cry out of anger.

It was Jian Yong's bad idea, which almost cost him his life.

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, he left the governor's mansion quickly.

　Haha, I want to laugh as I write this. Is Liu Bei under my command too sad, and there has been no good fruit to eat.
