32, Spying(2/3)
Qilin said: "We have an idea. The first step is to alienate Ma Chao, who is in charge of the army, and Cheng Yi, who is in charge of internal affairs. I don't think there is even a need to alienate... They are at odds with each other. Let's find an inn to stay first. I
Think about it."
Lu Bu strolled towards the door of the inn on the side of the street. Qilin muttered to himself: "Ma Chao probably doesn't do well either."
Before he finished speaking, a drunken young man rushed out of the inn and cursed to himself: "I have to pay you for drinking here!"
Inside the inn, the boss yelled, "Who do you think you are! Not to mention being Ma Taishou's son, even Ma Taishou has to pay for drinking here!"
Ma Chao threw his helmet on the table and lay down.
Qilin handed over three wine glasses. Lu Bu looked at Ma Chao expressionlessly for a while, then took off the wine bag from his waist and poured wine into the two glasses in turn.
Lu Bu: "Poor."
Qilin: "Keep your voice down, he's not drunk yet..."
A faint smile appeared on Lu Bu's lips. Ma Chao sniffed and said, "Good wine! Drink!"
Qilin offered tea instead of wine, and Lu Bu and Ma Chao clinked glasses.
"What are you unhappy about? Tell us and let us be happy." Qilin said.
Lu Bu spat out his wine and laughed.
Ma Chao said angrily: "Don't worry about things, you are born to be uncomfortable..."
"If you are not happy in life, the Ming Dynasty will be ruined." Qilin said leisurely, reaching out and touching Ma Chao's head.
Ma Chao nodded lonely.
Lu Bu rarely said: "My dear brother, since you are worried about being looked down upon by others, why don't you strive for your own success?"
Ma Chao yelled: "What do you know! What do you know! My mother is a Qiang, and I was looked down upon everywhere in Wuwei. No one would listen to me. Only my father treated me well, and my mother tried all kinds of tricks to squeeze me...
As soon as my father goes off to war..."
Lu Bu stretched out his palm to signal Ma Chao to calm down, and said indifferently: "I understand."
Qilin mocked: "You know a hammer."
Lu Bu said angrily: "Learn from Gan Xingba? You will never learn well!"
Qilin smiled awkwardly and said, "What do you know?"
Lu Bu looked at Ma Chao and said slowly after a moment: "When I was seventeen, I was just like him."
Ma Chao was mumbling something unclear, and then fell down with a crash.
Qilin stood up and said, "Shopkeeper, please open a guest room."
Lu Bu thought for a while, picked up Ma Chao, carried him on his shoulders, and entered the inner room. Qilin held Ma Chao's helmet and felt that the helmet was very exquisitely made.
Qilin asked Ma Chao to lie on the bed and took off his boots: "Continue talking."
Lu Bu sat in front of the brazier and said indifferently: "When I traveled around the Nine Plains, I was looked down upon by people everywhere. It was the same when I first came under the command of my adoptive father."
Qilin casually took the drill and fiddled with it in the brazier, asking, "What happened next?"
Lu Bu replied: "Fortunately, my adopted father favored me and appointed me as the chief bookkeeper of the account."
Qilin's heart moved. Lu Bu was fascinated by the flames jumping in the basin. Qilin wanted to ask more questions, but suddenly he understood everything. It was interesting: "Ding Yuan asked you to sleep with him?"
Lu Bu was silent. Qilin thought that Lu Bu was young at the time, still childish, had a big tongue, and his habit of facial paralysis might be the fault of his whereabouts under Ding Yuan, so he smiled and said: "Okay, don't mention it."
Lu Bu looked at Qilin with a complicated expression. After a while, he said in a deep voice: "I have never surrendered."
Qilin nodded and said, "You saved your chrysanthemum."
Lu Bu: "..."
Qilin smiled and touched Lu Bu's head. Lu Bu was distracted by this and lost all his thoughts. After a moment, he smiled and said: "I don't hate having my sleeves cut off, I just don't want to be humiliated when I'm lying down. Ding is greedy and takes every inch he gets.
fed up……"
Qilin said: "Well, just kill him, it's nothing."
Qilin glanced at Ma Chao on the bed again and said, "He is quite beautiful."
Lu Bu responded perfunctorily, and Qilin recalled what he knew about Ma Chao's life experience and said: "His father is probably in bad luck. He hasn't come back for nearly eight months. I don't know what happened to him now... I'm afraid he is in the city.
Life is not going well..."
Lu Bu said: "Embroidering pillows requires more practice."
Qilin said: "Compared with a martial god like you, I'm all a loser."
Lu Bu smiled modestly: "That's natural."
There were a few knocks at the door, and Qilin went to open the door. He saw the letter sent back to Longxi, received Ye Mingzhu, and the spy took a look inside the room. Lu Bu said casually: "What did the fleeing military advisor say?"
Qilin opened the letter and smiled: "Chen Gong said...oh, very good, earlier than I expected."
Lu Bu raised his eyebrows.
Qilin said: "We have to go back immediately. There are hundreds of people dragging their families and families to join you."
The spy was interested and said: "My lord is very happy. Yuan Shaozhong betrayed his relatives and left. Kong Rong led the scribes from the Han Dynasty to Longxi and begged the lord to send troops."
Lu Bu frowned alertly: "Send troops?"
Qilin said: "I will take care of this." After saying that, he rewarded the letter with a silver tael and said in a low voice: "You continue to stay in Wuwei and act according to the opportunity. Thank you for your hard work, brother."
The messenger bowed and went away.
Qilin packed up his things, handed the Luminous Pearl to Lu Bu, and pointed to Ma Chao on the couch.
Lu Bu was speechless: "Does this idiot deserve one?"
Qilin smiled mysteriously and said: "Don't underestimate him, come on."
Qilin leaned close to Lu Bu's ear and whispered: "Wake him up, and then... tell him..."
The unicorn chirped, and Lu Bu went in his left ear and out his right ear, looking hesitant.
Qilin went out, closed the door, sat down with his back against the wall, and listened.
Lu Bu said: "Good brother!"
The sound of water, the sound of Lu Bu washing cloth.
Lu Bu followed Qilin's instructions, washed the hot water with a cotton towel, and applied it on Ma Chao's forehead. Ma Chao hummed a few times in comfort. Lu Bu said: "Wake up."
Ma Chao woke up, struggled to get up, took off the cloth on his forehead, and wiped his face: "When is it?"
Lu Bu asked him to sit down, and put his slender fingers on his back, massaging his acupoints to help him sober up.
Lu Bu said indifferently: "It is good to have high spirits when you are young. It is good to have a strong spirit."
Ma Chao looked sad and nodded.
Lu Bu continued: "Of course, a man should have a man's responsibilities and cannot always wait for others to take care of him like a child. Even if you are proud of your uncles and brothers for a while, others will not think so."
Qilin lazily said outside the door: "I memorized the wrong lines again."
Ma Chao: "?"
Lu Bu thought to himself and said: "Brother Fool's name is Fengxian, the Fengxian of the Fengxian flower."
Ma Chao laughed and said, "My younger brother Meng Qi."
Lu Bu's knuckles were clear and his pressure was strong. Ma Chao suddenly became clear and clear, and the spiritual altar was opened and he said, "Thank you, brother."
Lu Bu said: "In the future I am willing to fight on the battlefield and make meritorious service to honor my ancestors, so I can hold this thing." He put the night pearl into Ma Chao's palm and said: "I am a guest in Longxi. If you don't mind it, you can entrust your wealth and life to your foolish brother. I will take care of you."
I will pave a path for you to become a great general."
The brilliance of the night pearl circulated, and the word "Qi" was engraved on it. When Ma Chao was young, his family was poor, and he rarely saw this precious thing. He said: "Brother, this is a very generous gift, I am ashamed to deserve it!"
Lu Bu: "..."
Ma Chao: "..."
Lu Bu frowned, thought hard, and finally remembered and said happily: "It's not that you are not worthy of this bead, but that this bead is not worthy of you. With your talent, if you are willing to hone it, you will be even more dazzling in the future."
, the name of Xiliang Jinma Chao will spread far and wide to the Central Plains and throughout the world."
"Brother Yu has something to do. I'll come back to you another day and say goodbye."
Lu Bu stood up, wearing a black mink fur and a wolfskin hat, which made his slender figure look even more beautiful.
Ma Chao's eyes were hesitant, as if he was thinking about it.
"Let's go now, take care." Lu Bu cupped his hands indifferently.
Endless coquettishness, endless spontaneity.
Ma Chao hurriedly got off the bed and asked, "Where are you going, brother?"
After closing the door, Lu Bu was full of complaints. The corners of his mouth twitched and he said full of complaints: "Is this enough?"
Qilin jumped up with a smile and asked Lu Bu to carry him downstairs. The two of them went out, rode on the red rabbit horse, left Wuwei, and went home.
Chen Gong looked forward to seeing Lu Bu and Qilin finally come back.
