In the blink of an eye, it's the end of the year again.

On a high-rise building somewhere in Jiyin County, Chen Wei was guarding outside, and Lu Bu, who was dressed in Jinrong, looked into the distance, and everywhere he looked was a white expanse, and the heavy snow covered the flowers and trees, covering the entire north, covered in silver, and it was all snow-white.

Before you know it, it's another year.

"I don't know if my husband's illness has improved, he's the most afraid of the cold......

Lu Bu laughed to himself, as if he was shrinking his body and wrapping himself in a big jacket, and the joke was in front of him at this moment.

There was no one beside him to talk to.

Lu Bu sighed leisurely, really, a little lonely!

The gentleman who knows himself best is recuperating in Guanzhong, Cao Xing was transferred to the north, Gao Shun is busy with military affairs and strategic planning for the coming year, and as for the public platform, it is inconvenient to say a lot of things to him......

As for Song Xian and Wei Musheng, Lu Bu has always treated them as brothers in his heart, but with the continuous rise in status, these people can only look up and respect themselves more and more.

Even Guo Jia, who was the most unruly, became more advanced and retreating when he saw himself, and he no longer spoke dissolutely like when he was young.

Nowadays, it is so difficult to find someone to talk to.

Lu Bu smiled self-deprecatingly, his smile wrapped in an indescribable bitterness.

It's cold in the heights!

When he walked down the pavilion, a soldier came to report that Mi Zhu was coming.

Lu Bu let out an 'um', probably guessing why Mi Zhu came and walked in the direction of the county guard's mansion.

Coming to the outside of the mansion, Lu Buton stepped down, and inside Chen Gong and Mi Zhu were fighting with each other.

"I said that I would go all out to attack Yanzhou and let Cao Cao take the class from Xuzhou, but we stayed up until the city was broken and people died, and we didn't see Cao Cao withdraw his troops, didn't your army want to give an explanation?"

"The fall of Xuzhou can only say that you stick to it and can't complain about us."

"Master Chen, when you speak, you have to talk about the conscience of heaven and earth. If you want to say it like this, 500,000 stones of grain and grass, you can't give it to Mi! ”

Hearing that Mi Zhu's tone contained a threat, Lu Bu strode into the hall, his eyes did not look at Mi Zhu at all, and his voice was full of majesty: "There are only hundreds of thousands of stones and grains and grass, and the general still doesn't take it to heart, and the order will be passed down, so he will withdraw his troops back to the division." ”

Seeing Lu Bu come in, Mi Zhu bowed his hand, and what made him feel shocked was the second half of Lu Bu's sentence. If Lu Bu really retreated, Cao Cao would be able to free up his hands to stabilize Xuzhou, which would do more harm than good to his plan.

"The general retreated, isn't it a pity to pay before?" Mi Zhu's eyebrows furrowed slightly, wanting Lu Bu to dispel the idea of retreating.

Of course, Lu Bu would not retreat from this, but if Mi Zhu wanted to use this to force him to comply, Lu Bu would not agree.

He hated threats the most in his life.

"General Ben doesn't like to cooperate with people who don't believe in his word, and as for whether there is a loss, I don't have to worry about this." Lu Bu said coldly, and immediately waved his hand, showing no mercy: "Come on, send off guests!" ”

Mi Zhu couldn't help but be a little anxious, the task had not been completed, he couldn't just go back like this, and hurriedly defended: "Obviously said that the general sent troops to force Cao Cao's class, but now that Xuzhou has been broken, is it considered that you have lost your trust first?" ”

Hearing this, Lu Bu sneered: "General Ben remembers that he only promised to send troops to Yanzhou at the beginning, but he never guaranteed the safety of Xuzhou. Now, Cao Cao is already on the way to withdraw to Yanzhou, is this also a dishonest general? ”

Chen Gong helped on the side: "The general sent troops and efforts, in order to expedite the attack on Fan County, General Ma Chao almost died and was martyred. Look at Brother Mi again, I haven't seen half of the 500,000 stone grain promised, and now we still have the face to accuse us of not, backsliding, and the wicked sue first, so that's it. ”

A sharp remark made Mi Zhu speechless for a short time.

"If you don't have anything else to do, please go back!"

"You ...... the general?"

"General Ben's affairs, don't worry about your Excellency."

“……”

Mi Zhu was expelled from the county government, and the task was not completed, so he definitely couldn't go back like this, so he found a post house in the city to settle down.

After staying for two days, thinking about what Liu Bei said to him when he was leaving, Mi Zhu gritted his teeth and cheekily went to the door to ask for a meeting.

However, this time, he was directly turned away.

Lu Bu didn't want to see him, and Chen Gong didn't want to deal with him.

It's not okay to see Lu Bu, and in a hurry, Mi Zhu remembered Guo Jia who he had seen last time.

He inquired about Guo Jia's residence, but when he got there, Guo Jia was not there.

Mi Zhu made money and learned that Guo Jia had gone to a wine shop not far west of the city.

Hurriedly came, Guo Jia was really drinking there.

Mi Zhu walked to the opposite side and sat down, smiled, and bowed to Guo Jia: "Guo sacrificial wine, I haven't seen you for a long time, don't come to harm!" ”

Guo Jia saw Mi Zhu, but as if he had seen a plague god, his face was full of displeasure, and he got up and wanted to leave.

Mi Zhu hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed him and asked why.

Guo Jia had no choice but to sit down again, took a sip of winter wine, sighed and said, "Mi Zizhong, you have made me miserable!" ”

"What do you mean by that?" Mi Zhu is unknown.

"Did you say you wouldn't give food?"

Guo Jia asked him, Mi Zhu didn't speak, which was a tacit acquiescence.

"Sure enough, no wonder my father-in-law called me two days ago, and it was a stinking scolding."

"What does this have to do with you?"

"Alas, I was the middleman in this matter at the beginning, and I personally played the package ticket. I said that Mizi Zhongren is a gentleman, the most honest, and it is impossible to go back on his word. And what you are doing now, although my father-in-law will not do anything to you, but you have trapped my brother and me in the field of disloyalty and injustice, how will you gain a foothold in the future? ”

Guo Jia sighed, and then poured another sip of wine, which has a tendency to use wine to kill his sorrows.

"It's because my brother can't stand you." Mi Zhu was embarrassed, he promised 500,000 stone grain and grass before, on the premise that Lu Bu could keep Xuzhou.

"Brother Zizhong doesn't have to blame himself, Xuzhou was poisoned by Cao Cao, and the people are in trouble everywhere, I understand that you can't take out so much food." Guo Jia comforted Mi Zhu in turn, and filled a glass of wine with him, "If you don't have anything to do, go to the Three Treasures Palace, if Brother Zizhong encounters new troubles, I will definitely help you if I can help!" ”

Guo Jia was so open-minded and generous, Mi Zhu was grateful, he toasted Guo Jia a glass, and then told Guo Jia all the purpose of this trip.

After Guo Jia heard this, his face was slightly surprised: "You mean, Taofu Junxi went?" ”

Mi Zhu nodded, Tao Qian had passed away for less than half a month, and the countryside was in a remote area, so it was difficult to spread the news. Outsiders don't know, and it's reasonable.

Subsequently, Guo Jia calmed down and said kindly to Mi Zhu: "My father-in-law is upright, don't touch his moldy head at this time, even if you find him, it is estimated that there will be no play." ”

"How's that to be?"

"Well, I'll write you a letter. You take it to Chang'an to find a plan, my father-in-law listens to him the most. ”
