Lu Bu, God of War of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 363 Xun Shuang's Decision
"Stop being rude, don't back down." Hearing Xun Chen's questioning of Hua Xiong, Xun Shuang was startled and quickly stopped Xun Chen's rudeness.Xun Shuang had just experienced the ruthlessness of these warriors, and now he still has lingering fears. How could he dare to speak too much in front of Hua Xiong? Hua Xiong didn't know what was on his mind to get them down. What about Xun Shuang? Dare to take it lightly.

"Thank you, General Hua Xiong, for your kindness. The Xun family is very grateful. Just now, I asked General Hua Xiong not to see outsiders." After drinking Xun Chen, Xun Shuang quickly saluted Hua Xiong. just said.

"Forget it, you are my guests, I will take care of you, pack up and go back." Hua Xiong said lightly, pointing to the corpse on the ground, which meant that Xun Shuang had to clean up the corpse on the ground , Return to Tongguan.

"Um, General Hua Xiong, I only know that these people are going to join the rebels in Chang'an, but I don't know that they are the general's guests. This is rude." Seeing that Hua Xiong settled down with the Xun family, Zhang Xiu and did not leave.Instead, he walked over with a shy face and said.Originally, Zhang Xiu did this to force Hua Xiong to unify with himself, but he didn't expect Hua Xiong to attach so much importance to these people and catch up so quickly, Zhang Xiu didn't kill many people, and it didn't matter too much. As for leaving.Of course Zhang Xiu didn't want to touch Hua Xiong's bad luck at this time, but Zhang Xiu was here to persuade Hua Xiong to fight Wang Yun together with him. Could it be that what Hua Xiong is doing now is to lean on Wang Yun's side?Zhang Xiu couldn't persuade Hua Xiong to unite with him, it's understandable, but it would be very bad if Hua Xiong fell to Wang Yun's side, so Zhang Xiu had to stay and test Hua Xiong's reaction .

"What? For your uncle's sake, do you still want to stay if you are let go?" Seeing Zhang Xiu approaching, Hua Xiong's face turned cold, and he asked coldly.

"Hehe, General Hua Xiong was joking. These people are going to Chang'an to seek refuge with Wang Yun. Did General Hua rescue them intentionally to seek refuge with Wang Yun? If so, General Hua Xiong, please think again. Then Wang Yun wants to deal with Li today. The two generals Jue and Guo Si may not be able to accommodate the generals in the future." Seeing Hua Xiong's indifferent attitude, Zhang Xiu could only step forward to test with a smile.

"Hmph, I don't need you to worry about that, what is Wang Yun, he is not worthy to be used by me." Hua Xiong said with a sneer at the corner of his mouth.

"If that's the case, I won't bother you." Upon receiving Hua Xiong's reply, Zhang Xiu hurriedly saluted and took his subordinates away.

At this time, the troops brought by Hua Xiong had completely controlled the surrounding area. With the help of these troops, the Xun family quickly buried the dead. The funeral was very simple. First, the status of these dead was not high. Seeing the chaotic situation in Chang'an at that time, the Xun family and his party all looked dignified and naturally they were not in the mood to hold a funeral for the deceased, they just did it hastily.

"Nowadays the world is in chaos and the people are in danger. The Xun family needn't be too sad when the time comes." Seeing the melancholy expression on Xun Shuang's face, Hua Xiong couldn't help but step forward to comfort him. Hua Xiong would be surprised to see such dead people too often. No wonder, but these people are Xun Yu's family members, but it is necessary for Hua Xiong to communicate and establish a good relationship, maybe they will be officials in the same dynasty in the future.

"Thank you General Hua Xiong for your concern, but I don't understand that we have no grievances or enmity with that embroidery. Why did he make things difficult for us, and even kill us?" Xun Shuang's face was gloomy, but it wasn't all because of it. Because of the death, Xun Shuang is a wise and virtuous person. He vaguely felt that this matter had something to do with Zhang Linger. Otherwise, why would the Xun family suffer such a crime as soon as Zhang Linger left? Brought it over, but ignored Zhang Linger's people?It's just that this is his Xun Shuang's guess, so it can't be used as evidence, so he can only ask Hua Xiong secretly.

"Hey, this matter has something to do with me. Since Wang Yunzhu killed the prime minister, he wanted to eliminate the prime minister's henchmen, so he turned against Li Jue and Guo Si. Now the two sides are at war, and this show is Li Jue and Guo Si. Si sent me to persuade me. It’s impossible to think that this book failed to persuade me, but wanted to use you to destroy the relationship between me and Wang Yun. In fact, what relationship between me and Wang Yun needs to be destroyed. When the prime minister was there, I was the prime minister’s subordinate General, you have done a lot for the prime minister, how could Wang Yun tolerate me, if you don't fight me at this time, it's just that the time has not come." Hua Xiong spoke slowly, and when the time came, he made things clear. through.

"General Hua Xiong doesn't make peace with Li Jue and Guo Si, and he doesn't want Master Situ to get closer. I'm afraid that no matter who wins or loses, the general will not benefit." Seeing that Hua Xiong has no intention of getting closer to either of the two parties , Xun Shuang said tentatively again.

"Hehe, little brother Zhang Kai came to see me just now, and he has already discussed this issue with me. I decided to go to Xiliang with little brother Zhang Kai and join General Lu Bu. General Lu Bu saved my life back then. I have a good relationship. If I vote for him, I can protect myself and make a difference. Now that Li Jue and Guo Si are fighting with Wang Yun, the situation in Chang'an is very unstable. I think your Xun family might as well go to Xiliang with us Right. Although Xiliang is far away, it can be regarded as a paradise with General Lu Bu guarding it." Seeing Xun Shuang talking to himself, Hua Xiong naturally expressed his intention to join Lu Bu in an unambiguous manner, and at the same time persuaded Xun Shuang Shuang took the Xun family to Xiliang.What Hua Xiong didn't expect was that when Hua Xiong had just finished speaking, Xun Shuang's brows visibly twitched, because everything that happened in front of him was too coincidental, and Xun Shuang obviously felt that all of this was a conspiracy, but these Hua Xiong naturally couldn't notice the subtle expressions.

"It's no wonder that our Xun family has suffered such hardships. It turns out that you have discussed it a long time ago to force us to go to Xiliang!" Although Xun Shuang had great doubts in his heart, he must know that he couldn't help himself and changed his life. He held back and didn't have an attack, but just because Xun Shuang could hold it back, it didn't mean that others could hold it back as well.At this moment, Xun Mi stood up and pointed at Hua Xiong's nose.Although Xun Yu is Xun Yu's father, he also hopes that the Xun family can go to Xiliang to develop, but if he chooses between his son and the Xun family, Xun Yu is still willing to choose the Xun family. As for his son, let him Take it yourself.It is precisely because Xun Yu's affairs have always affected the Xun family, so Xun Xiao feels deeply guilty towards the Xun family, which makes Xun Xiao's temper worse and worse.This led to the fact that although Hua Xiong had just rescued Xun Mi, it was only in the blink of an eye.Xun Mi pointed at Hua Xiong's nose and scolded.

"Hmph, that's right. Zhang Kai came to me to discuss with me how to take you to Xiliang. According to my idea, just tie you to Xiliang directly. There is no need to discuss it. But that Zhang Kai felt that this was too humiliating, and wanted to think of a better way, but before we could discuss the reason, you were brought here by Zhang Xiu. But now I have saved you, and you are my captives , everything needs to follow my arrangement. Now we will go to Tongguan, take a short rest, and head to Xiliang tomorrow morning." Seeing Xun Mi pointing at his nose, Hua Xiong was angry when he could bear this, but these People are what Lu Bu wants, so Hua Xiong can't do anything about it, but this doesn't mean that Hua Xiong won't lose his temper.It's just that as soon as Hua Xiong's temper came up, he immediately revealed the bottom line, and he also talked about what he had discussed with Zhang Ling'er.

"This? Let's all get in the car and go back to Tongguan first." Seeing that Hua Xiong was in a hurry, Xun Shuang was a little worried at first.But after hearing Hua Xiong tell the truth, Xun Shuang couldn't believe it, Hua Xiong was too naive.However, Hua Xiong has always been in this position, and he doesn't need to consider their feelings. Anyway, people like the Xun family can't escape Hua Xiong's grasp.But after hearing Hua Xiong's words, Xun Shuang and Xun Mi felt better.People are like this, when the Xun family can't resist and can't make arrangements, and they can only cooperate with Lu Bu, they hope that Lu Bu is a good person, so that they can cooperate with each other without any grudges, and the current incident just proves that Zhang Xiu is not Lu Bu Or it was arranged by Zhang Linger, in other words, Lu Bu did not have the blood of the Xun family on his hands, so it might not be a good choice to go to Xiliang when the situation in Chang'an was chaotic and the Xun family was struggling.

"General Hua Xiong, you're back. Are the Xun family okay?" As soon as Hua Xiong returned to Tongguan, Zhang Ling'er hurriedly brought people out to greet him. When he saw Hua Xiong, he hurriedly asked, obviously very concerned about the Xun family's affairs. care.

"Uh, a few people died, but it's nothing serious." Seeing Zhang Ling'er approaching, Hua Xiong just replied, and left in a hurry.Zhang Ling'er thought that Hua Xiong was going to prepare to leave Tongguan for Xiliang, but Hua Xiong deliberately hid because he slipped his mouth and couldn't tell Zhang Linger.

In fact, as soon as the plot with Zhang Linger was revealed, Hua Xiong regretted it. Although Hua Xiong was a general, he was used to intrigues and knew the seriousness of it. Not daring to tell Zhang Linger what to say, she turned around and went back to the General's Mansion.

"Mr. Xun Shuang, are you all right? It's Zhang Kai's carelessness to make you panic." Zhang Ling'er didn't care about Hua Xiong's actions, but turned around and came to Xun Shuang behind, leaned back, and said apologetically to Xun Shuang .

"Hehe, little brother Zhang doesn't have to be like this. I already know the whole thing. It's not something you can control when things happen suddenly, little brother. You don't have to blame yourself for what you have done." Glancing at Zhang Linger, Xun Shuang squeezed out the corner of his mouth. With a slight smile, he nodded to Zhang Linger and said.

"Hmph, Zhang Kai, tell me first, do you never plan to send us to Chang'an from the beginning to the end? Did you plan to take us to Xiliang from the beginning?" At this time, Xun Shuang behind Xun Shuang But Yan said coldly.

"Hehe, the Xun family really deserves its reputation. After all, I can't hide this little scheme from the Xun family. In fact, I'm going to talk to you two about it." Seeing that Xun Xiao seemed to know the whole thing, Not only was Zhang Ling'er neither embarrassed nor awkward, but she laughed, as if there was nothing wrong with what she did, and instead she was aboveboard.

"Since we want to talk about this matter, let's go back and discuss it in detail." Seeing that Ling'er in front of him was calm despite his young age, and was able to deal with it calmly even though he was exposed in public, Xun Shuang's heart was startled suddenly. Such a city, so easy to deal with, even Xun Shuang is well-informed, but he has only seen it in his life.In the past, he only thought that Zhang Kai was just an ordinary person, but now it seems that Zhang Kaizhi is not ordinary. Lu Bu has such a person to help him, no wonder he was able to enter Liangzhou.

Xun Shuang was thinking about the Linger in front of him, and before he knew it, several people had already arrived at their place. Zhang Linger naturally took Pei Yuanshao and followed Xun Shuang and Xun Yu to a living room to sit down.

"After this incident, I think you two have a clear understanding of the current situation in Chang'an. My meaning is very simple. I want to invite the Xun family to go to Xiliang with me. General Lu Bu has been looking forward to it." After reading Xun Shuang and Xun At a glance, Zhang Linger didn't make a long speech, but just straight to the point.As the helm of the Xun family, Xun Shuang and Xun Wei are extremely smart people, they can see things clearly, and Zhang Linger doesn't need to say more about unnecessary things.

"Hehe, I, Xun Shuang, have seen countless people in my life, but I didn't expect to be tricked by you, a young brat. It really makes people sigh." Looking at Zhang Linger, Xun Shuang didn't answer directly, but said with a sigh.

"Hehe, Mr. Xun praised you absurdly. Since Mr. Xun Yu was picked up by General Lu Bu, Cao Cao has been wary of the Xun family. The Xun family is in an embarrassing situation in Yanzhou, so they have the heart to move, so this time the Xun family relocated. The matter is not that I fooled the Xun family, but that the Xun family took the opportunity to avoid disaster. If you think about it this way, you are not scheming the Xun family, but you have fulfilled your Xun family and saved your Xun family." Xun Shuang thought it was Zhang Linger who lied. Zhang Ling'er confronted them, but said that he had just helped the Xun family and preserved the Xun family.However, what Zhang Linger said seemed to make some sense, and it was difficult for people to distinguish for a while. Even Pei Yuanshao, who was on the side, nodded greatly when he heard it, feeling that he had indeed done a good thing this time.

"Hmph, if Lu Bu hadn't kidnapped my son Xun Yu, how could Cao Cao have been wary of my family, and how could my family have ended up in such an awkward situation in Yanzhou? Didn't all of you make this switch?" Zhang Linger heard. Xun Yu said bluntly, but what he said proved from the other hand that what Zhang Linger said was not groundless, and that the Xun family's status in Yanzhou was indeed embarrassing.

"Hey, I think that Mr. Xun Yu regarded Cao Cao as the master of the Ming Dynasty, and he wanted to assist Cao Cao wholeheartedly. My General Lu Bu was just giving Mr. Xun Yu and the Xun family a chance to see Cao Cao's true colors. I think back then Xun Yu In order to save Cao Cao's life, Mr. gave up his freedom and was willing to go to Xiliang with General Lu Bu. Then Cao Cao got Mr. Xun Yu's favor and should have repaid the Xun family. But Cao Cao regarded this as the greatest shame in his life and forbade any People mentioned that not only did they not treat the Xun family with courtesy, but they were always on guard. Such a person deserves the loyalty of Mr. Xun Yu and the Xun family, so this trip is only to save the Xun family." Zhang Linger is eccentric. There are people like Xun Shuang and Xun Yu who can deal with it very well. With just a few words, they can turn their hands into clouds and rain, and call themselves the savior of the world.

"Hehe, I didn't expect that little brother has such an amazing talent at such a young age. He not only tricked us self-righteous Xun family into boarding a pirate ship, but even Hua Xiong was persuaded by you. It really is amazing. In fact, Lu Bu thought It's not difficult for my Xun family to work for me, but Lu Bu's murder is too serious and his reputation is extremely bad. Such a person is rejected by the world. Even with our help, it may be difficult to accomplish. I don't know if little brother Zhang Kai has a good plan Solve it." At this time, Xun Shuang already knew that there was no way to go to Xiliang. Although there are precedents for the children of the major aristocratic families to be loyal to the hostile forces, the Xun family is different because of Xun Yu's reputation. However, the rest of the Xun family didn't seem to have enough weight, which caused Xun Yu to go to Xiliang. Although he was kidnapped, the Xun family was labeled as Lu Bu to a certain extent. Now everyone is going to Xiliang, The best way out is to integrate with the Lu Bu Group, but Lu Bu's reputation is too bad, which makes the Xun family have to think of a way in this regard. They must work for a notorious lord, and the reputation of the Xun family will naturally It fell quite a bit.

"Mr. Xun Shuang asked this question. Could it be that Mr. Xun Shuang has some way to solve this problem?" Hearing what Xun Shuang said, Zhang Ling'er raised her eyebrows and asked suddenly.

"Hehe, what can I do, but little brother Shi Shi is very talented, so I have this question. But if you can't settle down at this time, I'm afraid General Lu Bu will not be able to achieve anything in the end." Xun Shuang chuckled, but Said with a worried look on his face.

"Don't worry about this, sir. General Lu Bu did many wrong things when he was young, but these are all things in the past. In the future, there will be no more mistakes with the help of the Xun family." Zhang Ling'er is now grown up. Gahaha said.In fact, Zhang Linger has been thinking about this issue since she knew that Lu Bu had great ambitions, but this matter involves Lu Bu's privacy, and it is inappropriate to tell others without discussing with Lu Bu, even if these people will soon Serve Lu Bu.

"In that case, brother Zhang Kai will take care of you along the way." At this moment, Xun Shuang sighed and finally said the most important sentence.

"Hehe, don't worry, Mr. Xun. I assure you that Mr. Xun's decision is the most sensible." After hearing Xun Shuang's words, Zhang Linger finally felt relieved, although Zhang Linger knew that facing Hua Xiong, the Xun's family would have nothing to do with it. There was room for resistance, but Zhang Ling'er was relieved when Xun Shuang said this. Being able to persuade the Xun family was a worthwhile trip for Zhang Linger.
