Lu Bu, God of War of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 338 The Battle of Tongues
"What do you think of Xun Yu's matter?" After hearing what the two said, Xun Shuang didn't say anything directly and asked his brother beside him. He must be Xun Yu's son, and he still needs to listen to Xun Yu's opinion. of.

"Xun Yu is my son. I naturally hope that Xun Yu can come back to me. However, the world is in chaos today, and the princes are rising together. It is the time for heroes to use their weapons. How can I ruin everyone because of my wishful thinking? Future. Xun Yu thinks that our Xun family can't put all the bets on one family. Only in this way can we ensure that no matter how the world changes, the Xun family will not suffer disaster." Although Xun Yu hopes that Xun Yu will be good, he must He is his most outstanding son, but like everyone else in the family, Xun Tiao still has great doubts about Lu Bu's ability.Therefore, it is not in favor of turning to Lu Bu in an all-round way.

"That's right. As the head of the Xun family, I should take the interests of the Xun family as the foundation. In this case, let's prepare and go to the side of the master we think is the master. But remember, the Xun family will always be As a family, once the time comes, whoever occupies the high position must try his best to keep the safety of the others.” In times of chaos, even a wise man like Xun Shuang dare not make a judgment about the future direction of the world. For the sake of the Xun family, he can only let Xun Shuang The family went their separate ways, hoping that in the future some of the Xun family's children would be on the victor's side.When Xun Yu was there, there was no need for Xun Shuang to worry about these things, because Xun Yu's ability is enough to support the whole world, but now that Xun Yu has been taken away, all these can only be supported by Xun Shuang.

"My lord, there are people outside asking to see you." At this moment, a family member suddenly came in and said to Xun Shuang.

"See you, I don't want to see any messy people at this time." Xun Shuang was feeling a little irritable, and naturally he didn't want to meet anyone casually. Anyway, the Xun family would have a few waves of such boring people who came to visit every day. Not in the mood to bother.

"Who is asking to see?" At this time, Xun Shuang agreed with the meaning of the Xun family's own development, but Xun Yu's mood was different. In the past, he was always afraid of affecting the Xun family's plan, and he always suppressed his thoughts about Xun Yu, but now Now that I can go look for Xun Yu, Xun Yu was in a different mood, so he asked casually.

"The person who came here only said that he came for the matter of Master Xun Yu, but he didn't say much else." The family said after thinking about it.As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall was shocked.You must know that Xun Yu was kidnapped by Lu Bu, besides Cao Cao and Lu Bu, it was the Xun family. Cao Cao lost face in this matter, so naturally he would not publicize it. Lu Bu has a bad reputation. Although he doesn't care about his reputation, he will not publicize that he has been kidnapped. What kind of person, and the Xun family also regarded this matter as a family scandal, and kept it secret all the time, so at this time, it was said that they came for Xun Yu, so it was very clear that the person who came was either representing Cao Cao or Lu Bu, so it was inevitable.

"Are you asking him to come in?" Hearing this, Xun Yu wanted to go out to meet him right away, but he suppressed his emotions deeply in front of all the Xun family's children. And only Xun Shuang can represent the Xun family here.

"Let him come in." Xun Shuang was also surprised. Xun Shuang was more thoughtful than Xun Yu, and he had already guessed that the person who came must be from Lu Bu. Once Cao Cao was going to take control of Yanzhou at this time, there was time to pay attention to Xun Shuang. Family, Cao Cao should have come here long ago if he wanted to contact the Xun family, so why wait until this time.On the contrary, in order to take control of Yanzhou at this time, Cao Cao must relax his knowledge of the Xun family at this time, but it is the best time for Lu Bu to take the Xun family away.Thinking about it this way, Xun Shuang could almost conclude that the person who came must represent Lu Bu. "You all go down, Xun Yu, stay and accompany me to meet the guests." At this time, Xun Shuang drove everyone else down, leaving only Xun Yu to meet the guests with him.

Not long after, I saw two young people walking in one after the other. The one in front was full of energy, radiant, with bright eyes and white teeth. It was Zhang Linger. The one behind him was Pei Yuanshao with a sword hanging from his waist. Was arranged to eat outside.

"Xun Shuang, I don't know how to address you two, who they represent, and what's the matter when you come to Xun's house?" Seeing the two coming, Xun Shuang stood up and clasped his fists.Although the two people in front of them were young, they could represent Lu Bu, and Xun Shuang did not dare to treat them lightly.However, to be on the safe side, Xun Shuang did not speak out the guess in his heart, but asked the two of them.

"This is Zhang Kai. This is my brother Zhang Yi. The two of us were ordered by General Lu Bu to invite the Xun family to Chang'an to contribute to my great Han Emperor and share in the great feat of the Great Han Zhongxing." Naturally, Zhang Linger could not put his own Tell the truth about your identity, but this does not affect Zhang Linger's nonsense about her name.

"Go to Chang'an? Contribute to the Great Han Emperor and share in the great feat of the Great Han's revival? Are you joking?" Xun Shuang's face darkened after hearing Zhang Ling'er's words, and he said a little coldly.At this time, Dong Zhuo was killed, and the news of Wang Yun presiding over the government had not yet reached Yingchuan, so Xun Shuang didn't know about the changes in Chang'an, but Zhang Ling'er, who passed the information with Lu Bu, was very clear about it, and Zhang Ling'er played carefully this time , is to use the prestige of the emperor to deceive the Xun family to Chang'an. As long as they leave Yanzhou where Cao Cao is located, Zhang Linger will naturally have a way to bring the Xun family to see Lu Bu.

"It seems that Mr. Xun still doesn't know about the changes in Chang'an. To be honest, Ma Teng of Xiliang has secretly led Xiliang's army to attack Chang'an under the arrangement of Lord Situ Wang Yun. Now Dong Zhuo has been executed and Chang'an has been restored. But Today, the world is in chaos, and the princes are on their own. Although the emperor was able to control the situation in Chang'an, he still needs the help of loyal people like the Xun family in Yingchuan. I came here to invite the Xun family to Chang'an on behalf of General Lu Bu." Zhang Ling'er's words were half true, but the words he said were righteous and righteous, which made Xun Shuang and Xun Yu excited when they heard it.

"What you said is the truth. Is the emperor really out of trouble? Chang'an really recovered? Can the big man really be rejuvenated?" Zhang Ling'er's words shocked Xun Shuang and Xun Yu so much that Xun Shuang was in a state of shock for a while. Unable to digest, I was completely shocked by the sudden good news.

"This matter is absolutely true. Although the news has not reached Yanzhou yet, I believe it will be known to the whole world in the near future. How dare I deceive the Xun family with this matter." Although Xun Shuang asked this question, but But it's not that he doubts the authenticity of the news, it's just that the news came too suddenly. Now that he heard Zhang Ling'er's assurance, he naturally knows that there will be no fake news at this time.

"Since Wang Yun and Ma Teng captured Chang'an, why would your general send you to pick us up to Chang'an?" But after digesting the news, Xun Shuang had doubts again. Lu Bu is Dong Zhuo's godson. How could someone be sent to pick up the Xun family at this time and go to Chang'an to help Wang Yun Ma Teng and the others?Could it be that Lu Bu killed his adoptive father again?Although this idea is absurd, it is not impossible, so Xun Shuang looked at Zhang Ling'er in front of him and asked a little puzzled.

"Hey, it's a long story. Dong Zhuo was tyrannical, and my general Lu Bu often persuaded him. It's just that Dong Zhuo refused to listen. Later, Master Wang Yun learned that my general also had the heart to serve the country, so he discussed with my general how to save the emperor. It's just that although my general has the heart to save the emperor, he and Dong Zhuo also have the righteousness of father and son. In the dilemma, my general had to stay away from Chang'an and settle in Longxi. Only then did Wang Yun think of recruiting Ma Teng to lead troops to Beijing Now that Dong Zhuo is dead, my general only wants to protect the frontiers for the great Han, and the management of the world's chaos really depends on the talents of the world, so that's why I was ordered to invite the Xun family to come to Beijing to assist my emperor." Zhang Linger said There are truths and falsehoods in the words, but it makes sense when it is said, and it also solves the knot of the Xun family.Although Lu Bu captured Xun Yu in the camp, it doesn't mean that the Xun family will be wary of rats and endure Lu Bu's mercy. However, although scholars don't value profit, they value reputation. There was no reason not to go, not to mention that they were going to Chang'an, but Lu Bu was far away in Longxi, so there might not be any threat to them.

"Eh? Since General Lu Bu has the heart to serve the country, I wonder if my son Xun Yu and Xun You can be released?" Hearing this, Xun Yu hurriedly asked about his precious son Xun Yu.

"Of course, when I came here, my general said that as long as Xun Yu is willing to contribute to His Majesty, he will never leave Mr. Xun Yu in Longxi again. But you also know that Mr. Xun Yu wants to plan for Cao Cao, so this matter is not easy to handle. I'll pay you back, and I'll try to persuade you when I have a chance." Seeing Xun Yu's question about Xun Yu, Zhang Ling'er naturally agreed, but she explained the embarrassment.Looks like Lu Bu is very righteous.

"Your Excellency has brought so much good news for our Xun family. Our Xun family is really grateful. It's just that the Xun family has a great career, and the matter of going to Chang'an needs to be discussed in the long run." But he put on an unhurried look, obviously this guy is old and cunning, although the temptation to go to Chang'an is great for him, but the old guy is so easy to give in, this time he is procrastinating again.

"Mr. Xun, the reason why I come to the Xun family at this time is to ask the Xun family to go to Chang'an to help the emperor. At the same time, it is also to put the Xun family in danger. Can the Xun family not see the current situation clearly?" Seeing that Xun Shuang made up his mind again, Zhang Ling'er knew that dealing with this kind of person requires both a carrot and a big stick. Zhang Linger's words just now gave the carrot, and it's time for the big stick.

"Oh, little brother's words seem to be a bit alarmist." Xun Yu didn't care about what Zhang Linger said, but just replied lightly.
