Chapter 371 People’s Hearts Will Change

Lu Bu drank a lot. Although he drank occasionally, he had never drank until his glass was dry like today. Even so, he drank until the guests dispersed, and Lu Bu was only slightly tipsy. After going to the toilet, So I sat in the room and enjoyed the feeling of elation at this moment.

In fact, sometimes he really wanted to get drunk, but it was difficult to do so.

When some terrible things in the simulated world kept happening in reality, Lu Bu had to admit that he was scared. In fact, who hasn't thought that important people can always be by their side and never be separated? But in fact, everything that should go will go. No matter whether you are in a high position or not, it is impossible to keep all important people by your side, even your children.

In the simulated world, Lu Bu doesn't care, so he is very free and aloof, but when these things happen in reality, that kind of reluctance and nostalgia while pretending to be cool and careless is really ugly.

Who can be deceived?

You will still be reluctant to let go when you should.

"Mr. Ji, what is this?" Dian Wei frowned and looked at Ji Ping, who was carrying a bowl of medicine.

"I think the Taiwei drank too much today, so I made a sobering soup for the Taiwei." Ji Ping said with a smile.

Hearing this, Dian Wei also glanced at Lu Bu worriedly. He really felt that something was wrong with his master today, so he nodded and said, "Go ahead."

In the past, when Lu Bu didn't know medical skills, as the imperial physician, Ji Ping would often go in and out of Lu Bu's mansion to treat Lu Bu's family members, so Dian Wei didn't have any doubts.

Ji Ping came to Lu Bu with a plate and called softly: "Lieutenant, this is sobering soup. Drink it quickly, it will be better for your health."

The air was filled with a faint scent of medicine. Lu Bu slowly raised his head and looked straight at Ji Ping, who looked at him and his heart went crazy.

"Lieutenant... why are you looking at me like this?" Ji Ping said with a dry smile, his heart trembling as Lu Bu stared at him.

"Drink." Lu Bu pointed to the medicine bowl.

Ji Ping's face stiffened, and he laughed dryly and said: "This is a hangover soup. I'm not drunk. Isn't it a waste to drink this?"

Lu Bu looked at him quietly: "Broken fungus, Aconitum... and Tripterygium wilfordii, Ji Ping, I treat you well and ask you to practice medicine. Are you going to kill me?"

These people hiding in the secret were finally coming out, but Lu Bu didn't expect that the first one to jump out would be Ji Ping.

Ji Ping's expression changed slightly when he heard this, and then he gritted his teeth, picked up the medicine bowl, grabbed it at Lu Bu, and wanted to force it down on him.

Lu Bu: "..."

Dian Wei had already sensed that something was wrong here. When he saw Ji Ping bullying him, he shouted angrily, rushed forward and kicked Ji Ping down.

"Keep alive." Lu Bu called out to Dian Wei, who was about to slap Ji Ping to death. If Dian Wei slaps Ji Ping to death, he may be gone.

The guards came in and held Ji Ping down.

The drunkenness was dissipated like this. Lu Bu looked at Ji Ping who was tied up, frowned and said: "I treat you well. I ask myself, I have nothing wrong with you, and I have no grudge against you. Why do you put me in this situation?" Death place?"

"Lü Bu was a traitor, deceived the emperor, treated the officials harshly, and rebelled against the laws of our ancestors. Everyone in the world found him and punished him. Why can't I kill you?" Ji Ping said angrily.

"Is there any accomplice?" Lu Bu did not answer, but asked rhetorically.

Ji Ping was startled and just sneered.

"It seems that there is one, and the accomplice should be in the court." Lu Bu stared at Ji Ping and said.

Ji Ping quickly closed his eyes.

Lu Bu stopped Dian Wei, who was about to step forward and break him off, and asked: "Seven people have asked you for treatment recently: Dong Cheng, Wu Shuo, Niu Fu, Wu Zilan, Li Meng, Zhou Yu, Wang Zifu..."

At the end of Ji Ping's words, he suddenly screamed and banged his head on the ground crazily. This Lu Bu was too scary, not only because of his intelligence, but also because this person seemed to have the power to read minds, which made Ji Ping feel a little unbalanced.

"Lord, these people..." Dian Wei looked at Lu Bu with some worry. Among the seven names Lu Bu mentioned, many were old Xiliang generals. Logically speaking, they should be from Lu Bu's side.

"People can change." Lu Bu closed his eyes, looked down at Ji Ping and said, "I'll give you a chance to atone for your sins. Are you willing to take it?"

Ji Ping sneered and said: "The traitor will be killed if he wants to. Why are there all these nonsense? If we were the people who are greedy for life and afraid of death, how could we dare to do what we did today?"

"It's a pity that despite his talents, he insists on participating in politics!" Lu Bu looked at Ji Ping speechlessly, saying that he was acting like an imperial doctor instead of being a gunman.

This was obviously someone who was made to forget where he stood by a few words and was so stupid that he came to assassinate him. If he obediently served as his imperial physician, even if Zhang Ji and Hua Tuo stayed, they would not be able to replace him. Despite his status as an imperial physician, Lu Bu was disgusted by his appearance of meddling in political affairs and his heroic sacrifice.

He waved his hand and said, "Leave it to the Criminal Department."

"Here!" The two guards agreed and escorted Ji Ping to the Ministry of Punishment. The Ministry of Punishment had just been established and was waiting to establish its prestige. Although the Imperial Physician Ling was not a high official and could not establish much prestige, the person who controlled the situation behind the scenes was People are enough to establish the authority of the Ministry of Punishment.

Seeing Ji Ping being taken away, Lu Bu stood up and said, "The moonlight is beautiful tonight, which is suitable for talking with old friends. Dian Wei, come with me for a walk."

"Here!" Dian Wei agreed, followed Lu Bu, left Lu Mansion, and went straight to Dong Cheng's residence.

In Dong Cheng's Mansion, Li Meng, Niu Fu, Wu Shuo, Wu Zilan, Wang Zifu, and Zhou Yu were all there. They had just returned from Lu Bu's Mansion and were waiting for news. As soon as they succeeded, they would take action immediately.

While the seven people were sitting there, a family member came in and said to Dong Cheng: "Family...the head of the family..."

Dong Cheng frowned and was about to scold him, but he felt that the light in the room dimmed and two figures had come in. When he saw their appearance clearly, Dong Cheng's face turned pale and he stood up and said: "Tai... Taiwei, why are you here? "

"Today Lingqi is getting married, and suddenly I feel a lot of emotion. It seems that I haven't seen these old robes for a long time, so I came to take a walk. I don't want you all to be here." Lu Bu went straight to the main seat and sat down, looking at everyone and smiling.

The seven people secretly looked at the reactions of the others, and finally chose to sit down obediently, forcing a smile and saying: "Yes, after we returned to Chang'an, Chang'an City has changed a lot. Lingqi was only this big back then. I don’t want to blink, and I’ve reached the age of marriage.”

"Have you ever blamed Bu Wei for not delegating power to you?" Lu Bu asked with a smile.

Niu Fu opened his mouth, finally sighed and shook his head and said: "The young people nowadays are really powerful. I am older than these people. It is already a favor that the lord is willing to let me be on top of the court. How could it be so?" Hate the lord?"

"I don't hate you, but you plotted against me today, the day I married my daughter?" Lu Bu asked rhetorically.

When everyone heard this, their expressions changed slightly. Dong Cheng smiled and said, "Why did my lord say this?"

"Just now Jiping came to me with a bowl of hangover soup and asked me to drink it. I refused to drink it, but Jiping wanted to forcefully drink it from me while I was drunk." Lu Bu looked at the people who were looking increasingly ugly: "Then it is indeed poisonous."

"Jiping really deserves to die, but my lord, this matter has nothing to do with us!" Li Meng quickly cried out.

"Then..." Lu Bu looked at him and said: "Today at Chenshi, your imperial army left the Weiyang Palace without permission from the military department. Where did they go? There are also two guards on the left and right..."

Seeing the completely changed expressions of the seven people, Lu Bu shook his head and said, "I am not a bad person on behalf of you. Why are you like this?"

"Not thin?" Niu Fu sneered: "I used to command 50,000 Xiliang troops, but now I have less than 300 troops under my command. I have no jurisdiction and no fiefdom. Is this not thin?"

"The Taiwei relied on me, Xiliang soldiers, to secure his position in Guanzhong. However, after he won Guanzhong, he treated me like a piece of grass. Why not?" Li Meng also stood up and said angrily. He and Fan Chou were both under Dong Yue's command back then, and Dong Yue died. , the military power is in their hands. It was Lu Bu who first obtained the military power in their hands before he could later sweep Guanzhong.

"I treat you like a high-ranking official with generous salary. Is this called being careless?" Lu Bu laughed angrily. This group of people had obviously been instigated, but they didn't know it yet.

"A high official and a good salary?" Dong Cheng sneered, stood up and said: "Lu Bu, since you know that you can win Guanzhong because of our Xiliang soldiers, but since then, you have repeatedly decentralized power, but you have not considered me, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, etc." , Xu Rong and other non-Xiliang generals can control the military power, but we can only get empty seats in the temple. I tried my best to assist you at the beginning, but after Your Majesty's election, why is it that the Fu family is the queen but not my daughter! ?”

"My son just accidentally fell and killed one person, why do I have to apologize!?" Li Meng shouted again.

"Wen Yuan once defeated the Qiang army in Xiliang with hundreds of horses, and established the Western Region Protectorate. I asked you, but no one wanted to go to that bitter and cold place. It was Wen Yuan who traveled thousands of miles to fight, and defeated all the countries in the Western Region with a narrow escape. , the Silk Road is prosperous today. What's wrong with him getting a high position? Very strange?”

Lu Bu paused, looked at everyone and asked: "Xu Rong has stationed in Chang'an for me several times, so that I have no worries in the rear. The scholars in Chang'an have rebelled several times. If it weren't for Xu Rong, we would have been homeless now. I am with him." What's wrong with high-ranking officials? Have you ever done anything good since I was appointed to Guanzhong? What's wrong with even allowing your disciples to oppress the people and punish them according to the law?"

"It's useless to talk more!" Dong Cheng snorted coldly: "Lu Bu, since you dare to come here alone today, then don't leave. I'm afraid my troops have already invaded!"

"Since I know this, how could I let it happen?" Lu Bu looked at Dong Cheng and asked, "Do you really think this Xiliang army will still listen to you?"

Ten years ago, Lu Bu was indeed afraid of these people's military power. However, times have changed. Now Lu Bu has already solidified his foundation in Guanzhong and is supported by the army and the people. The Xiliang army has long been dominated by Lu Bu. How can they really listen to their orders?

The expressions of Dong Cheng and others changed and they stood up one after another. Lu Bu just looked at them quietly. A large number of private soldiers surrounded the place. Dong Cheng then looked at Lu Bu and shouted: "The traitors should not be rampant. Since they are here today, We will fight for the country!"
