Chapter 252: Talk about your heart
When Lu Bu heard Wei Ji Wei Boru's words, he was moved by it and stepped forward and bowed deeply: "Bruru is so profound that Lu Bu admires him!"
Wei Ji hurriedly replied, "Wei Ji takes action for both great righteousness and self-interest. The general must not be too proud of it. Wei Ji is ashamed of it!"
As soon as Wei Ji finished speaking, a servant hurriedly ran from the front door of the Wei Mansion and shouted sadly: "Young Master, something is wrong! Forty thousand Central Army surrounded the castle!"
Outside the Wei family castle, war horses neighed and war drums rumbling. Forty thousand Central Army soldiers shouted in unison: "Bloody and save the lord!" The momentum was shocking, and everyone in the Wei family looked like earth. [正官][正官][正官][正官][正官][正官][正官][正官][正官][正官][正官][正官][正官][ 官网][ 官网][ 官网][ 官网]
Wei Ji hurriedly bowed to the ground and kept kowtowing to Lu Bu: "Please spare the whole family of the Wei family!"
Lu Bu stepped forward and helped Wei Ji up and said softly: "For your sake, everyone else in your Wei family can forgive you. But your second brother is really confused this time. He will not forgive his crimes if he does such a traitor! Even if I want to forgive him, I am afraid that other auxiliary ministers in the cabinet, 200,000 Central Army, 300,000 military farms, 500,000 county soldiers, and 5 million civil servants cannot forgive him!"
Wei Ji said sadly: "But my uncle has a son in old age, and there is only one son in Zhongdao. If Zhongdao dies, I am worried that my uncle will not be able to withstand the blow and will die. If my uncle dies, my old father will be weak and sick, and it will probably be difficult for a long time. Please give me the general to see the respectful face of Master Cai and the weak face of my Wei Ji, and let my second brother live for the time being!"
Lu Bu was furious and without saying a word, he walked towards the gate of Weijiawu Fort without saying a word.
Wei Ji walked quickly to the wall of the fort and said to Lu Bu who was walking towards the city gate: "If the general promised to spare my second brother's life, my Wei Ji would definitely worship the general. At the same time, my Wei family contributed half of the revenue from the Hedong Yanchi to the general; if the general does not agree to forgive my second brother, my Wei Ji will no longer have the face to see my uncle, so he jumped down and finished it all!"
Lu Bu stopped and looked at the city gate with thousands of Wei family soldiers standing at him, looking at him with a cold look on his face. He looked up at Wei Ji with a determined look on his face. He knew that if he did not agree to forgive Wei Zhongdao, Wei Ji would never be able to get out of this gate. After all, without the Red Rabbit Horse and Fang Tian Hua Ji in his hand, he would never be able to resist these thousand fierce Wei family soldiers and more than 5,000 hidden soldiers in the Wei family castle. Even if he had his own troops outside the gate, it would be difficult for him to protect himself.
Lu Bu thought again that even if he had spared Wei Zhongdao for the time being, he would never be able to survive for a year with the degree of tuberculosis. Why should he have a fight with this dying person? It would be better to regard this forgiveness as a transaction and exchange it for the benefits he wanted from the Wei family!
When Lu Bu thought of this, he waved his hand and signaled Wei Ji to come down.
Wei Jiteng got down the city wall and quickly came to Lu Bu. Seeing that Lu Bu's expression was no longer as angry as before, he smiled and said with a smile: "Lord, have you spared my confused second brother?" Since Lu Bu decided to spare his second brother, he followed the opportunity to call Lu Bu as his lord.
Lu Bu's expression, which had just been relieved, suddenly became cold and stern again, and he said in a deep voice: "It is not difficult to ask me to spare Wei Zhongdao, but you need your Wei family to agree to me with a few conditions!"
Wei Ji bowed and said, "As long as I can spare my second brother's life, my Wei family can agree to the lord in anything!"
Lu Bu smiled coldly: "Boru, don't be so full of words. It's not too late to listen to my request first. You will consider it again! The first condition is to leave all the soldiers of the Wei family who participated in the murder of me and the yamen runners of the Wei Yan who were involved in the murder of me!"
Wei Ji nodded quickly: "This is no problem!"
Lu Bu said again: "The second condition is to leave all the direct families of all those who have participated in this matter to me!"
Wei Ji knew that Lu Bu had always been cruel to his enemies and had to break up his descendants and trouble his wife and daughter. He was a little disgusted at first. Later, he thought about it carefully that the heroic and generous heroes of all dynasties were all cruel and ruthless people. They were born in troubled times and were benevolent and could not gain a foothold. Lu Bu was so cruel that he nodded: "This is okay!"
Lu Bu looked around the entire Wei family castle and couldn't see Du Xiuniang, so he asked, "Where is that Du Xiuniang? She has also participated in this conspiracy! You must also hand her over to me!"
Wei Ji quickly explained: "The lord doesn't know that Du Xiuniang is not only innocent, but also made contributions!"
Lu Bu asked in surprise: "Why did Bo Ru say this?"
Wei Ji replied, "Lord, Li Fu, the three traitors of Li Fu, Wei Hun, and Hua Kai made this plan. I heard that the lord once mentioned Du Xiuniang in Cao Cao and Qin Yi. But there was a beautiful singer in Wei family in Hedong, named Du Xiuniang. Li Fu somehow insisted that Du Xiuniang of my Wei family was Du Xiuniang who was admired by his lord. Because his lord had advised Cai Wenji to delay the marriage date with my second brother Zhongdao, Zhongdao hated his lord to the core, Li Fu set up a series of plans and first persuaded Wei Yan, the ruling county magistrate of Wenxi County. Under Wei Yan's leadership, he entered the Wei family castle and deceived Zhongdao. Zhongdao forced Du Xiuniang to participate in the plan to set up a murderer.
Du Xiuniang admired her lord's literary talent and martial arts very much. She couldn't bear to be murdered by those traitors, so she repeatedly reminded her at the banquet, but she drank a few more glasses of wine at that time, but she couldn't see it.
Later, the lord was pulled to the Wei family castle by them. Seeing that their plan to kill the lord was about to be completed, Du Xiuniang was afraid that Du Xiuniang would leak the news and wanted to kill someone to silence him. Du Xiuniang was smart and clever, and discovered their murderous intent in advance. He accidentally saw my confidant secretly surveillance at the three lords, so he asked me for help. I got the whole truth from her. I suspected that these three lords were using my second brother to achieve their ulterior motives. I was also concerned that the safety of the lord was related to the survival of my country. So I sent someone to secretly help the lord to loosen his lord and also sent someone to ambush in the dungeon. If the lord had any disadvantages, they would definitely help. Fortunately, the lord's martial arts are superb, showing his power, and beat the lord to the point of falling into tears!"
Lu Bu nodded with great comfort and satisfaction. I knew that the beauty would not be cruel to a handsome man like me.
Wei Ji observed his expression and saw that Lu Bu's expression was so distorted. He knew that this lord was very sick and became a habit. Wei Ji knew that he was very lustful and became a habit. He smiled and said, "Lord, Du Xiuniang is both talented and lustful. He is the singer trained by my Wei family since he was a child. He was originally going to give it to his second brother Zhongdao as a concubine. Since Zhongdao made such a big mistake and his lord likes Du Xiuniang so much, why would you take Du Xiuniang away?"
Lu Bu was deeply ashamed by Wei Ji, and pretended to refuse: "How can a gentleman take away someone's love!"
Wei Ji shook his head repeatedly: "To be honest, my second brother Zhongdao is seriously ill and cannot be treated humanly, Du Xiuniang still maintains her perfect body! Isn't it a waste of talent to leave such a beautiful woman to my second brother? Besides, my second brother committed such disrespectful crime to his lord, so he should be severely punished. Giving his concubine to his lord is a punishment for him, and it is also what he should do to make up for his crime!"
Lu Bu was very happy. Wei Zhongdao, Wei Zhongdao, you have no literary reputation and offended me. Not only did you not get Cai Wenji, but you also lost Du Xiuniang, making you unable to get anything, making you unable to get anything, making you have to vomit blood and die of depression!
Although Lu Bu was happy, his face was very calm: "Since your Wei family is so sincere, I will refuse it!"
At this moment, the 40,000 Central Army outside the city shouted louder and the thunder chariot began to prepare for the start. Huang Zhong rode his horse out of the battle, pulled up the Yangyouji bow, aimed at the top of the Wei family castle, and shot the five Wei family servants who were leaning under the city.
Huang Zhong put away his bow and arrow, waved the Phoenix-mouthed knife, and shouted loudly: "Give your Wei family a quarter of an hour to send my lord out. If there is any delay, our Central Army will surely attack the city quickly. If it attacks the city, we will surely wash the Wei family with blood, and there will be no chicken or dog left!"
Wei Ji climbed up to the top of the city and looked at the 40,000 Central Army below, with a look of earth and asked in a trembling voice: "Lord, what are your conditions? You might as well say everything. I agree to it all, just to protect the lives of the whole family of my Wei family!"
Seeing that Wei Ji had lost his usual calmness, Lu Bu spoke loudly and said, "There are three conditions left.
First, transfer all the share of your Wei family in Hedong Yanchi and all the wastelands under your Wei family to the Central Army's military farming regiment;
Second, all the soldiers of your guard family are included in the Hedong county and county military system, and are trained and commanded by the officers from the Central Army;
Third, all the children of your Wei family will be summoned to the Central Army. If I have an interview in person, those who pass must serve the Central Army."
Lu Bu's three conditions are extremely ruthless, one is to seek wealth, two is to seek military, and three is to seek talents. If all these three points are controlled by Lu Bu, the Wei family will be firmly grasped by Lu Bu, and the Wei family will be completely bound to the chariot of Lu Bu's fighting for the world.
Wei Ji thought for a moment and agreed.
Lu Bu looked surprised. He thought that Wei Ji would deny it all, because his three conditions were all about the lifeblood of the Wei family, so he asked, "Boru, why don't you think more?"
Wei Ji laughed loudly and said, "My lord, you underestimate me Wei Ji too much! Since my lord became famous in Luoyang, I have begun to pay attention to my lord. The lord is increasingly showing the charm of a generation of heroes. In the future, the great ministers who can revive the Han Dynasty must be the lord. Since I am so sure, why can't I spend all my family property to help my lord's great cause!
Han Hao has great political talents. The military farming corps led by him will be able to ensure that the Central Army has no worries about food and clothing, prepare for war with all their hearts, but they are short of money. However, we do not occupy much of the amount of money in Hedong Yanchi. The annual income is only more than 100 million yuan. Dedicating all of them to the lord is just a matter of heart."
