Chapter 35: The Mi family is loyal, and the assassin strikes

There is a secret alliance between the families, but when there are interests appearing, they will not hesitate to rush forward, even if they are former allies, they will fight, such things are not uncommon among the family.

The Chen family is an out-and-out family in Xuzhou, and there are many officials who secretly obey the orders of the Chen family, and the Mi family is from a business background and has huge wealth, but sometimes, wealth is nothing in front of the powerful.

"Thanks to Wen Hou for being so valued, his subordinates will definitely do their best." Mi Zhu saluted again.

Lu Bu nodded and said, "Since you have decided to help this general, there is no need for such politeness. ”

After sitting down again, Mi Zhu said: "Wen Hou, his subordinates have been in Xuzhou for many years, and there are not a few people in Xuzhou who secretly oppose the assassination of Shi Tao Qian, such as Zang Ba, who led the army to station Lang Evil, who was originally a general in the army, and had a meritorious role in fighting against the Yellow Turban, but he was dissatisfied with Tao Qian, and supported the army in Lang Evil to stand on his own, and did not obey Tao Qian's orders. ”

"Zizhong's words are reasonable." Lu Budao, Zang Ba, is the most powerful general in Xuzhou except Tao Qian, with 6,000 soldiers under his command, many of whom are thieves and others, and Zang Ba's talent in leading the troops is also terrifying, otherwise, why Tao Qian sat back and watched Zang Ba sit in Langxie.

In Jia Xu's plan, Zang Ba is a crucial link in ruling Xuzhou.

"At present, the officials in the city are obedient to Wen Hou's words, why are they not waiting for the change of the situation in Xuzhou, Shanyang is too guarded by Yuan Yi and Beihai Kong Rong, and there are many words of condemnation of Wen Hou, and they have a clear position against Wen Hou, these forces should not be underestimated." Mi Zhu sighed.

Unlike other officials who took refuge in Lu Bu, Mi Zhu was after some careful consideration, Jia Xu's persuasion certainly played a certain role, he wanted to let the Mi family grow in his own hands, and now Lu Bu's strength is outstanding, and the officials in Xuzhou are afraid of it, but in fact, the officials in Xuzhou are just waiting for the opportunity, once the time is ripe, they will not hesitate to stand up against Lu Bu's rule.

Opportunities are often accompanied by huge risks, and Mi Zhu decided to take a gamble, believing that with Lu Bu's bravery and Jia Xu's resourcefulness, Lu Bu could gain a foothold in Xuzhou.

The means and abilities shown by Jia Xu, who was not good-looking, after Lu Bu occupied Pengcheng, made the officials in the city jealous.

Lu Bu snorted coldly: "Yuan Yi and Kong Rong, the general has not been put in his eyes yet, if he angers the general, they will definitely die without a place to bury." ”

From Lu Bu's words, Mi Zhu felt absolute confidence.

"Willing to assist the lord and achieve great things." Mi Zhu bowed again.

When Tao Qian ruled Xuzhou, he and Tao Qian were just using each other, but from Lu Bu's body, he felt the courage to be able to achieve great things, although Lu Bu's reputation in the world is very bad, and the reputation of businessmen is also not good, when Lu Bu needs it most, contributing key strength will pave the way for the future of the Mi family.

"The Mi family is best at business, and I will let you continue to be in charge of business in Xuzhou in the future, what do you think?" Lu Bu asked.

Mi Zhu was slightly stunned, and arched his hand: "My subordinates are willing to obey the orders of the lord." ”

Lu Budao: "Business, in the eyes of the literati may be lowly, the truth of Shinong industry and commerce, Ben Jiang also understands, but business, can make Xuzhou grow in a shorter period of time, when the time comes, Ben Hou will help one or two." ”

"Whoa." Mi Zhu's tone was slightly excited, because he felt that Lu Bu did not have the slightest contempt for the merchants.

"In the future, you will still serve as a driver, but the main energy will be on business for the time being, especially for the purchase of excellent war horses, don't slack off, there are three thousand elite cavalry under the command of this general, and there is no shortage of needs for war horses." Lu Budao: "As long as you work hard, why worry that the Mi family can't grow further." ”

"My subordinates understand." Mi Zhu arched his hand.

After Lu Bu left, Mi Zhu's excitement was difficult to calm, doing business is the sore spot of the Mi family, and in the future, the Mi family will continue to do business with the support of Lu Bu.

Once Lu Bu rules Xuzhou, he will become the most noble person in Xuzhou, who dares to disobey Lu Bu's orders, and the Mi family's choice at this time is of great significance, after success, the Mi family will become a powerful family in Xuzhou, surpassing the Chen family is not even a problem, if it fails, it will disappear.

"Brother, is it a bit hasty to put all the Mi family on Wen Hou's body?" Mi Fang stepped forward and said, and when he talked to Lu Bu, he acted as a loyal listener and did not express any opinions.

Mi Zhu shook his head and said: "Although it is dangerous, it is also the hope of the Mi family to rise in Xuzhou, Wen Hou, very human, broke away from Dong Zhuo to attack Pengcheng, behind such means, is it possible for the vulgar martial artists in the eyes of other princes to do it?" ”

"I see." Mi Fang sighed.

"Zifang doesn't need to sigh so long, Zifang has practiced martial arts since childhood, and his martial arts are not weak, if he can command the soldiers and horses under Wen Hou's account, you and I will have one article and one martial arts, plus Zhen'er on Wen Hou's side, the Mi family will definitely be stable." Mi Zhu said slowly.

A bright light flashed in Mi Fang's eyes, over the years, how much effort has the Mi family made, after Mi Zhu became a separate driver, it does have a lot of help for the Mi family, although there are a lot of gossips in the dark, don't drive in a state, it has a prominent position, it is precisely because of the identity of Mi Zhu Xuzhou that the influence of the Mi family has been further enhanced.

"Brother, Zhen'er has a stubborn personality, I'm afraid she won't agree easily." Mi Fang said.

Mi Zhu showed a wry smile when he heard this, in the Mi family, he is the head of the family, and he is full of words, but when facing Mi Zhen, he can't raise his temper, which can be described as a collection of thousands of favors.

"It's okay, when the time comes, I will persuade my brother, you are currently in the army, you must do your best, don't slack off." Mi Zhu said.

Leaving the Farewell Mansion, Lu Bu was in a good mood, the Mi family he had to subdue, if he wanted to get the Chen family's sincere refuge, it was very difficult, the Chen family was huge, and he was definitely not willing to obey his orders like this, which also required him to show the means to convince the Chen family.

Suddenly, Lu Bu's heart jumped, and he pulled up Jia Xu next to him and crashed out of the carriage.

At the moment when Lu Bu just landed, several arrows pierced through the carriage, and the tail of the arrow still trembled slightly.

"Protect the General!" Gao Shun shouted with a pale face, the protection of the entourage of two hundred soldiers from the trapped camp actually made the assassin almost succeed, which was a huge shame for the trapped camp.

Lu Bu was still easy to say, and broke through the carriage to escape, but Jia Xu was a literati after all, and he fell directly.
