Lu Dynasty

Chapter 267 Mi Huan Escapes Marriage
Xun Yu saw that Cao was angry and was going to attack Xuzhou, so he stood up and said, "My lord, the reason why Gaozu and Emperor Guangwu were able to achieve the imperial career is because Gaozu guaranteed that Guanzhong would not be lost, and Emperor Guangwu occupied Hanoi. They all consolidated their foundation first, allowing themselves to advance to conquer the world and retreat to wait for favorable times. Therefore, although they walked very hard at the beginning, they finally achieved imperial career. The lord originally took Yanzhou as his foundation Yes, besides, He and Ji are also important places in the world, the same as Gaozu's Guanzhong and Emperor Guangwu's Hanoi. Now if the lord goes to attack Xuzhou first, staying too many troops will not be enough to attack Xuzhou. If you stay less , Lu Bu took the opportunity to attack, then Yanzhou would no longer be ours. If the lord can’t defeat Xuzhou and we lose Yanzhou, where should we go then? Tao Qian is dead now, but Xuzhou already has Liu Bei Guard. Since the people of Xuzhou have chosen Liu Bei, they will definitely help him to defend. My lord, I don’t care about Yanzhou to attack Xuzhou. It’s a waste of money and a small loss. This will put us in danger, please be careful!”

Cao heard Xun Yu say such a long sentence, and all the anger in his heart disappeared.Cao, who calmed down, knew that he had been impulsive just now, so he quickly changed the subject and said, "This year's locust plague must be a bad year. There is no way for us to stay here like this! Tell me, what should we do? "

Xun Yu said: "This plague of locusts is a natural disaster, and it cannot be resisted by manpower. My lord, it is better to attack Chendi and let the troops under his command look for food in Yingchuan and Runan. Now Yingchuan and Runan are captured by Huang Shao, the Yellow Turban thief, He Yi and others occupy it. They often rob everywhere. They must have accumulated a lot of gold, silver and food. Moreover, the yellow scarf thieves are generally easy to fight. We get rid of them and use the food they plundered to feed the army. If the court is happy, the common people are also happy. As the saying goes, it is a matter of obeying the sky and responding to people, so why doesn’t my lord do it?”

Cao felt that what Xun Yu said was really reasonable, so he left Cao Ren and Cao Hong brothers to guard Juancheng and other places, and led his troops to Yingchuan to attack the Yellow Turban Bandits.How those yellow turban thieves were Cao's opponents? After He Yi, Huang Shao and others were killed by Cao's Xiahou brothers, Runan and Yingchuan were pacified in this way.

Mi Zhu in history chose Liu Bei and married his younger sister to him.But now Mi Zhu chose me. As for the reason why he chose me, he was influenced by Xiao Mi Huan.No matter in history or now, Mi Zhu and Mi Fang dote on their little sister very much.This can be seen from the fact that they wore Mihuan disguised as men when they were doing business.In the Han Dynasty, although Confucianism was not as overbearing as later generations, and Confucianism had not yet appeared, restrictions on girls had already appeared.A girl from a family background like Mi Huan usually wouldn't show her face in public, but Mi Zhu and Mi Fang let her go, as long as she was happy, they didn't even interfere with her marriage.

Mi Zhu began to transfer his property to Chang'an when Tao Qian wanted Liu Bei to succeed Xuzhou Mu for the second time.So no matter when Tao Qian asked him if he asked Xuzhou to take care of Liu Bei, or when Liu Bei declined, Mi Zhu didn't speak.When Mi Zhu resigned from his post in Xuzhou, Liu Bei thought that Mi Zhu was saddened by Tao Qian's death, but Chen Deng saw Mi Zhu's abnormality, and Chen Deng knew that Mi Zhu must have other plans.

Liu Bei saw that Mi Zhu had rejected the appointment to be an officer in Xuzhou, but he still wanted Mi Zhu's help.Not to mention Mi Zhu's ability, but his wealth made Liu Bei jealous.So Liu Bei invited Chen Deng to Xuzhou Governor's Mansion and asked him: "Yuanlong, I want to enlist Zizhong to work in Xuzhou, but he is unwilling. Is there any way you can persuade him?"

Chen Deng said with a smile: "Mr. Xuande, this matter is easy to hear! Zizhong is a modest gentleman. He doesn't care about anything, but his sister is the only one he cares about. Mi Zhu's younger sister is named Mi Huan, who is almost 20 this year. I'm old, and I'm as beautiful as a flower, but my vision is too high. If Minggong can marry Zizhong's younger sister, would you be worried that Zizhong won't help you wholeheartedly?"

Liu Bei was overjoyed when he heard Chen Deng's words.To be honest, in the Han Dynasty, girls who were not married at the age of 20 could only be remarried, and the government had to find trouble. This was the law at that time.If it weren't for the current troubled times, the Mi family would have been questioned by the government long ago because of Mi Huan's problems.And Liu Bei can be regarded as an older young man. Now Liu Bei is almost in his fourth year and does not have a regular wife. If Liu Bei can marry Mi Huan, under the circumstances at that time, it can be regarded as a happy event for everyone.Liu Bei naturally thought so too.

The next day, Liu Bei came to Mi Mansion to propose marriage.After Mi Zhu heard Liu Bei's intentions, it was really hard to tell Liu Bei the truth. Could it be that you asked Mi Zhu to tell Liu Bei: "Mr. Xuande, my sister doesn't like you, so go away!"If Mi Zhu really said that, not to mention that Liu Bei is now Xuzhou Mu, even if Xu Zhoumu is still Tao Qian, Wei Yan and Shamoke will demolish Mi Mansion.But Mi Zhu knew that Mi Huan would not agree, so he said embarrassingly: "Mr. Xuande, it's not that I don't agree, it's just that my younger sister is too spoiled. She is really not a good match for Mr. Xuande, and she is also I won't agree. Wouldn't it be unbeautiful to sweep Xuan Degong's face at that time?"

Seeing Mi Zhu's refusal, Liu Bei smiled and said, "Zizhong doesn't have to worry, as long as brother Zizhong agrees to this kind of thing. Getting married has always been the order of parents and the words of a matchmaker. I believe that brother Zizhong's family education can My sister must be a good girl!" To be honest, Liu Bei's face is not ordinary, and a modest gentleman like Mi Zhu really can't resist it.

Mi Zhu sighed and said, "Mr. Xuande, let me ask my sister, I really can't answer you!"

Liu Bei saw that Mi Zhu was really embarrassed, so he smiled and said: "Then I will trouble Brother Zizhong, I will wait for your good news!" In fact, Liu Bei didn't have much interest in Mi Zhu's sister, he only liked Mi Zhu's ability and Mi Zhu's strength. family wealth, and Mi Zhu's reputation in Xuzhou.

After Liu Bei left, Mi Zhu was very hesitant. He could tell that Liu Bei was a very good lord, but Mi Zhu didn't want to wrong his sister, so Mi Zhu wanted to ask Mi Huan how he felt about Liu Bei.If it was Mi Huan in history, he would naturally fall in love with Liu Bei. After all, Liu Bei was also one of the rare heroes in the late Han Dynasty.But now with me as a comparison, how could Mi Huan fall in love with Liu Bei, a man who can be his own father, so when Mi Zhu went to ask for Mi Huan's opinion, Mi Huan thought that his brother had betrothed himself to Liu Bei. In anger, he followed his caravan and ran away from home!
