38, it is better to have a boy than a girl

Dongyuan City.

The crescent moon is like a hook, illuminating the pedestrians. It was originally a small city. The alleys in the city were silent and the houses were lined up one after another. With the uneven shade of trees, it was like a gloomy pool. Only one or two barkings from a distance could break the night immersed in the darkness and burst into pieces.

Several pedestrians were walking in the dark night. They did not ride horses and their footsteps were very low. They shuttled through the streets and alleys in the city. The leader only fired a dim torch. The torch swayed with the pace in the night wind, as if it would be blown out by the wind at once.

Their low footsteps finally stopped in front of a house.

After the war began, the residents of Dongyuan City fled many families. With the willful looting of Lu Bu's troops, the city was actually empty. At night, curfew was imposed. Except for the occasional night patrol soldiers passing by, they were empty and had no popularity at all.

Many generals and schools under Lu Bu had their families with their troops or plundered women. They were greedy for comfort and despised the accommodation in camps outside the city, and moved to the houses and courtyards in the city, using this place as their temporary residence.

It was also because of their stay that the city seemed a little more vibrant at night.

A few pedestrians observed in front of the house for a while. There was still light in the house. The people inside seemed to have not fallen asleep. After a tall figure repeatedly observed, he asked again:

"I can recognize it clearly during the day, but here?"

"That's right, that's it."

The tall figure nodded with satisfaction when he heard this, waved his hand, and one of the pedestrians came forward and gently knocked on the wooden door of the house.

"Who?"

As the knock on the door sounded, footsteps came soon behind the door, and a tender female voice sounded. Listening to her voice, she was a little alert.

These days, there are chaos and Lu Bu's army fled everywhere. It is difficult to maintain military discipline. Many soldiers in the army are desperate people without family members. At night, illegal things happen in the cave room and the city is a little peaceful, but they cannot be completely avoided.

Therefore, the woman behind the door was still very cautious, and the person knocking on the door could only lower his voice.

"It's the lord!"

"oops--"

The cautious maid behind the door heard that it was Junhou coming, and she almost frightened her voice after thinking for a moment. She quickly covered her mouth and tried her best to calm her heart.

The person knocking outside the door was already impatient, and he urged again:

"You can open the door quickly."

"oh oh."

When the maid behind the door thought that the dignified lord and general were waiting outside, he hurriedly began to move the door bolt and slowly opened the wooden door. With the light coming out of the crack of the door, the maid glanced out of the door. Although the person standing next to the torch was not wearing armor, he was tall and burly, with a wide forehead and square face, and had a beard. Isn’t it just Marquis Wen?

When Lu Bu, who was standing outside the door, saw the wooden door open, a maid behind the door who had seen him several times was peeping at him nervously, no longer choosing to stand outside the door, signaling his personal guard to stay outside the house, find a warm and warm corner to avoid it, and wait until he came out before meeting him.

Lu Bu then pushed open the wooden door a little more, then his tall body flickered in through the gap, the wooden door closed again, and the outside and inside the door returned to calm.

When Lu Bu entered the door, he glanced at the thin maid and said:

"You just stay in the yard first."

After saying that, Lu Bu stopped paying attention to her and walked into the house with his footsteps.

The lighting in the house was quite bright. A woman was wearing a thin shirt and gauze, lying lazily on the bed. She heard the sound of footsteps, but did not look back and asked directly:

"Who is here?"

"It's me!"

When Lu Bu saw this familiar pretty figure, his face was filled with smiles. He laughed and walked towards the woman on the bed.

Hearing Lu Bu's voice, the woman on the bed woke up. After she was surprised, she asked in surprise:

"June, why are you here?"

"Because I miss you so much, I will come to see you tonight."

Lu Bu laughed, sat on the bed and hugged the woman who wanted to get up. Looking at the woman's smooth and white skin like goose feathers, and smelling the faint fragrance of body, Lu Bu's thoughts suddenly arose and couldn't wait to put his face on the woman's chest.

"Haha" the woman was not afraid. Lu Bu's movements made her laugh. She wrapped her arms around Lu Bu's neck, and she sneered:

"No, no."

Lu Bu had already tried to do it, but when he heard the woman's voice, he was stunned, thought for a while, and asked:

"What's wrong?"

"You said you were thinking about me, but you might not be like that in your heart."

"How could this happen? If I hadn't been thinking about you all the time, how could I come to you tonight?"

"But if you think about your concubine, how can you let me live in this despicable house? A few mansions with high walls and courtyards in the city? If I want to live there, there will be a group of concubines and slaves who serve daily life. There is only a little maid by my side. How can I serve my concubine?"

When Lu Bu heard the woman's grievance in her arms, he suddenly complained in his heart. Dongyuan City is just a small city, with only a few large houses and high houses in the city. After capturing Dongyuan City, Lu Bu was rewarded by Lu Bu to Zhang Liao, Gao Shun and other generals who had made military achievements, as well as close friends Wei Xu, Cheng Lian and others, where there were still remaining mansions to give to the woman in front of him!

The woman in front of me was Du, the wife of Qin Yilu, the military officer under Lu Bu. It is said that Qin Yilu had no military achievements and had little reputation in the army. He was able to obtain a house in the city because Lu Bu gave a special order to take care of Du.

But Du's life is used to being frugal, how could he live such a middle-class family?

Lu Bu once killed Dong Zhuo, supported the Han Dynasty, and made great contributions. He was appointed as the general, and was appointed as the three officials of the Han Dynasty. He was in charge of the government affairs with Wang Yun. The prosperity and wealth in Chang'an City were not something that could be obtained by opening his mouth and reaching out.

But now he has fallen to the border town where Hedong County and Hanoi County are about to go to the border, and the garrison troops are ready to eat. For the arrogant Lu Bu, he feels so frustrated!

Du Shi is just a little woman, so how can she understand her own difficulties?

Lu Bu was greedy for Du's body and could only agree vaguely. Then he buried his head between Du's two peaks regardless of the situation, and his movements gradually became rude.

But Du was unwilling to do so, and began to push Lu Bu, exhaling like orchids. His bone-eroded humming made Lu Bu burn his desire and said with swearing:

"No, my husband may come back."

"Don't worry, Qin Yilu had already asked me to send me to the military camp outside the city to patrol the night. He would definitely not be able to come back. Tonight, you beauty, are mine!"

After saying that, Lu Bu no longer hesitated and immediately threw Du under him, like a hungry tiger pounced on food. Du felt Lu Bu's strong body heat up sharply. She jokingly and let Lu Bu do whatever he wanted...

Outside the city camp

The two men who were patrolling the night met near the camp gate. The two men were old acquaintances in the army. Seeing that there were no military generals coming to patrol tonight, they asked their soldiers to find a clean corner to rest. The two men approached a corner with their arms around each other.

The older Shi Chang opened the wine bag on his waist, took a sip of the wine, and saw the young Shi Chang's expression of envy, smiled and reached out to him.

The young man quickly took the wine bag from his hand with great gratitude, and then poured a mouthful of it into his mouth. Because he was anxious, some wine overflowed from the corner of his mouth. The young man was so scared that he quickly touched the corner of his mouth and sucked the little wine back.

When the older Shi Chang saw the young man's busy look, he felt a little sorry for his drink, but he pretended to take the wine bag back generously and cursed with a smile:

"Look at what you look like, it's like eating your wife's milk."

"Hey, uncle, don't say that. In this kind of famine, there is no meal at all. Every household will be out of the cooking. This woman is so hungry that she is skinny and bone-headed. The milk on her chest has long been broken. The children are exchanged for soup. This woman's milk is really rare."

The young Shi Chang looked reluctantly as the wine bag was taken away by the older Shi Chang. He wiped his hands and sucked the remaining smell of wine on his fingers, which seemed to be relish. He savored for a while before sighing, and then continued:

"My wife had long been starved to death. During this famine, there were also soldiers and people who were starving to death everywhere. If I hadn't been young, I could still use a knife, a spear, and become this leader. I took this city with the army and could barely get some brown rice to wrap my belly every day. I'm afraid I would have been starved to death like the hungry people on the road."

"But I have to say that the wine is really less than milk. There is no food in the fields these days, so there are no wine brewers. I heard that Hedong County has issued a ban on alcohol. Although there are food and grass in the city, there is no wine at all. My uncle is very capable and can get wine."

Facing the envious gaze of young Shichang, the older Shichang was proud in his heart, and he grinned:

"You don't know this. Although there is no official wine cellar in the city, some wealthy families still have private brews in their homes. After they have captured the city, the general searched the city and distributed the wine they have obtained to the generals around them."

"What's that uncle's wine?"

"It was given by Qin Baijiang. He was drunk in the tent, like a pile of mud. I happened to report to him in the tent. He couldn't see the people clearly, so he forced me to drink and poured wine into my arms. I didn't know how to waste this wine, so I made a bag of it myself."

The two were already close. When the old man was proud, he talked about the cart and the young man. He was amazed and he was so upset that he didn't go to Qin Baijiang to report the matter at that time.

The young man could only say with a look of surprise:

"The generals Qin really deserve to be respected by the general. On weekdays, the generals would treat him preferentially. Unexpectedly, he received this rare good wine and distributed it to all the generals. Even the generals Qin Bai was thinking about it, but he didn't leave it!"

The old man almost laughed out loud when he heard what he said. He was mysterious and sneered in a pretentious manner:

"Of course, this kind of value is not something that everyone can have. If anyone else has this kind of blessing."

The young Shi Chang looked at the older Shi Chang's expression and recalled his words just now. He was stunned for a moment, and he became curious and said in a low voice:

"Uncle, is there anything else inside?"

"This is natural." The older Shi Chang smiled and leaned into the young Shi Chang's ears, lowered his voice:

"I heard the drunk Qin Baijiang, drunk in the tent, and shouted vaguely, wanting to kill his wife."

"Ah! There is such a thing, why?"

The young man opened his mouth in fear and looked at the older man with an incredible look on his face. He heard that the Qin Bai general at his head had a beautiful wife, so why did he become a murderer?

"Haha, why? Isn't it because the wine is replaced by milk! Otherwise, why would the general always like to let General Qin Bai patrol the night in the camp outside the city? Every time General Qin Bai patrols, he either gets drunk or wants to vent his anger."

The older one is good at human nature, and this is what makes the younger ones enlightened. After he reacted, he exclaimed:

"So that's it. I asked why General Qin Bai looked ugly every time he spent the night in the camp. It turned out that it was because of this. I always thought it was a chore and was worried that the soldiers from Hedong would come here?"

"Bad, this is really a great job. I have heard from other local military officials in the army that Dongyuan City, also known as Yuanqu, is the place where Emperor Shun cultivated Lishan. It spans Wangwu in the east, lies in Lishan in the west, and connects to Taihang in the south, and the Jieguan Xingdao is the only mountain channel facing west. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack. It is difficult for the soldiers and horses in Hedong to attack!"

The older generation taught the junior a lesson, and after showing off his voice in front of the junior, he heard many places in the army. After the mixed mountains and rivers were victorious, he became even more proud, and his big tongue continued:

"So, women are not useless. Look at Qin Baijiang. They don't have to go to battle to kill the enemy or bury their heads. They are allocated such a leisurely position, thanks to the woman's credit!"

The young and ignorant young man who was taught a lesson could only respond. He seemed to know everything that was older. Although the two had similar positions, their experience in the army was much worse, which always made him unable to get into it.

"It's the woman's credit, it's better to have a daughter!"

After the older Shi Chang said such a big call, he told the young young man not to speak out, he tied up his wine bag again, clapped his hands proudly, and greeted the soldiers in other corners with a sense of presence.

After seeing him leave, the young leader opened his eyes to see the dark four fields outside the camp. When he thought of the young leader, he didn't feel that it was so scary for a moment.

"Hedong soldiers will not fight."

He muttered, then walked out of the corner and called his soldiers who were tilted around to get up and leave.

A night wind blew, and it passed through the dark four fields, where they had just stopped. The air was a little fishy, ​​which smelled of blood.

ps: Let’s talk about the plot of Lu Bu, Qin Yilu and Du in this chapter. According to Wang Can’s heroic record, Lu Bu is suspected of having an affair with the wife of his generals. Du is Qin Yilu’s wife, and she is a beauty that Cao Cao and Guan Yu both like. The plot here is temporarily set as Lu Bu’s affair with Du.

"Heroes": Bu said to Taizu: "Bu is a good general, and when all the generals are in a hurry, they all rebel against Buer." Taizu said: "You are betraying your wife and loving all the generals and wives, why are you so kind?" Bu was silent.
