Chapter 233 Lu Bu breaks through
When Liu Xie received the news of Liu Yu's death in battle, half a month later, in the hall, Liu Yu's son Liu He, after learning that Liu Yu's death in battle, burst into tears and fainted on the ground with a tragic sound.
"Send the imperial physician quickly!" Looking at Liu He, Liu Xie felt a little embarrassed, but more angry.
Not long after, Doctor Ji hurried to the palace and took the pulse for Liu He, then bowed to Liu Xie: "Your Majesty, don't be careful. Zong Zheng is just angry and attacks his heart. He will be able to recover after several days of prescriptions to replenish qi and calm the mind."
Liu Xie nodded and ordered someone to send Liu He back to his mansion to recuperate. He waved his hand and said, "Retreat the court."
With the respectful voices from the ministers, Liu Xie stood up and returned to Chengming Palace.
Liu Yu's affairs were expected. Half of his anger was sincere, but half of them were for the ministers to see. The Han Dynasty wanted to revive, and as the emperor, the people of the Liu family naturally had to protect him.
However, Gongsun Zan's affairs were a bit difficult. It was beyond the reach of the court at present, but if the matter was to be handed over to the princes, there was only one Yuan Shao who had the ability to deal with Gongsun Zan.
Leaving the matter to him was equivalent to giving Yuan Shao annexing Youzhou with justification, but if he didn't give it, Gongsun Zan's affairs would be left alone. Over time, it would be a huge blow to the court's reputation.
"Your Majesty, Secretary Jia Xu, and Minister Guo Jia asked for a meeting." After a while, Wei Zhong came to Liu Xie and bowed.
"Let them come in." Liu Xie nodded.
Soon, Guo Jia and Jia Xu arrived together.
"What do you think about this matter?" Liu Xie sat on a wide chair and signaled the two to sit down.
"It's a pity for the Emperor's Uncle, but if Your Majesty wants to wipe out Gongsun Bogui, he will probably need to use Yuan Benchu's hands." Jia Xu looked at Liu Xie and said, "Your Majesty is worried that Yuan Benchu will grow stronger because of this?"
"I have this concern." Liu Xie sighed and looked at Jia Xu and Guo Jia and said, "The Yuan family's fourth generation and third generation of the three masters, Yuan Benchu's foundation in Jizhou has been established. If he asks him to get Youzhou again, it will be difficult to check and balance."
There are many former officials of the Yuan family in Bingzhou. Once Yuan Shao annexed Youzhou, Yanmen in Bingzhou had already fallen into the hands of Yuan Shao, and his power to dominate the north of the Yellow River would become. At that time, the court would take over Xiliang, and in terms of momentum and comprehensive strength, he would probably be suppressed by Yuan Shao.
"That may not be." Guo Jia smiled and said, "The land of Yanzhao has been strong since ancient times, which is very different from the Central Plains. There are many powerful men such as Heishan and Baibo. It just so happens that Zhang Yan, the Black Mountain, also has the intention of rectifying his name. Why don't your Majesty follow the situation and give Zhang Yan a name, so that he can restrain Yuan Shao and correspond to the court."
It is not a good idea, but it is the best way at the moment. After all, the most important thing in the court at present is not Gongsun Zan, but Xiliang.
"How was Wenhe prepared for the matter in Xiliang?" Liu Xie leaned on the back of the chair, rubbed his temples, and asked.
"Everything is under control." Jia Xu smiled and said, "This battle is just waiting for Ma Teng to come out, and Han Sui will be destroyed every night, and Xiliang will be fully in the hands of the court."
This time, Jia Xu didn't actually plan anything. He just pushed Han Sui's own strategy and forced Ma Chao to rebel, asking the two to temporarily send troops to make the other party empty, and then the matter was simple.
The matter of Xiliang is indeed a major event for the court, but there has been basically a conclusion here. However, even so, according to the three people's estimates, taking down Xiliang will be the current limit of the court. Even if there are no border troubles, the focus will be on sorting out and restoring people's livelihood within the next three years, especially the matters of the Qiang people, and they have to be careful.
"This battle is of great importance to the court, so you must be careful!" Liu Xiesu said that this battle was the first time the court took the initiative to attack the princes. No matter what the reason was, in the eyes of the princes and even the people in the world, this was the first head-on collision between the court and the princes, but there was a difference, which had a great impact on the court.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty!" Jia Xu bowed and said with a polite look.
Liu Xie, who was discussing with the two, suddenly felt a tingling feeling coming from the golden bell on his forehead.
...
The sky had become gloomy at some point. In the sob wind and snow, the fine snow danced between the sky and the earth under the strong wind, constantly hitting the exposed cheeks, making Lu Bu's face numb and numb.
Opposite him, a twelve or 3-year-old boy was blocking him in front of him. Lu Bu was not unfamiliar with the Qimen weapon in his hand. He had guessed the identity of the boy in front of him, but at this moment, Lu Bu had just had a fight with the Shanyu Wangting and was not interested in fighting with a little kid.
"I think you are young, let the road be clear, I won't care about you." Although Yuwen Tuo was an enemy, he was rarely the general who could make him pay attention to it, and he still felt a little pity. The other party's son came to the door. What surprised Lu Bu was not the courage and impulse of the boy, but the Xianbei army around him who were eyeing him, but I didn't know how the boy conquered him?
"Please take me three times, if you don't die, I will spare your life." The young man pointed the Qimen weapon in his hand at Lu Bu, and the expression on his face was chilling and evil, which made Lu Bu feel uncomfortable, but compared to those arrogant words, the strange feeling was nothing.
Are young people so annoying to speak now?
Lu Bu's eyelids twitched a few times, and instantly extinguished his little love for Yuwen Tuo. This young man was too arrogant and should tell him to know what there is heaven beyond heaven.
"Wen Hou, I'll do it." Wei Yan stepped forward and wanted to take action. He also felt that this kid was quite annoying.
Lu Bu shook his head and didn't say anything. He felt a little bit like that Wei Yan was probably not the opponent of this kid, which was ridiculous, but Lu Bu had always trusted his intuition very much, but it was a bit insulting to say this, so he simply didn't say more.
When Fang Tian's painting halberd was tilted, Lu Bu was too lazy to talk nonsense to the other party anymore. It was a very embarrassing thing to send a provocative look over and attack a young man with a young man. If he took the initiative, Lu Bu felt that it was an insult to his dignity.
The young man didn't say nonsense. The Qimen weapon was swung up, even if he was sitting on the horse's back, dancing such a heavy weapon with his body, it looked a bit out of place.
"Huh~"
With one move, the Qimen weapon broke the wind and snow, and the whole world trembled and smashed it down at Lu Bu. The fancy move made Lu Bu feel suffocating.
The Red Rabbit Horse turned around and did not take it in a head-on manner, but avoided it sideways.
"Boom~"
When the weapons landed, the entire earth seemed to jump. On the ground, soil splashed, and a large number of cracks appeared in the land, scattering around like a spider web. There was even a three-foot-square pit in the center, with a crack covering a width of more than one meter.
Lu Bu's eyelids twitched. Even Yuwen Tuo did not have such strength at the beginning. The young man's strength was really terrifying. And as soon as an expert took action, he knew if he had it. After the young man's move, Lu Bu felt an inability to resist. The underestimation in his heart closed, but the murderous intent spread.
At such an age, if you have such force, when you grow up in the future, who else can control him? This son should be killed!
Although Lu Bu was arrogant, he was not a pedantic person. Once he had an idea in his heart, he was no longer polite. Fang Tian turned his halberd and stabbed out with a green dragon claw.
The young man shook his arm and closed the move. Then he slapped his right hand. Lu Bu felt a powerful force surge, and his body turned on the horse's back. Fang Tian's painting halberd circled around and turned into a lightning-like slash and slashed down.
"Clang~"
With a muffled sound, the wind and snow around it seemed to be intervened by some unpredictable force, and swept around with the two of them as the center.
Lu Bu's face was rarely excited. Even Huang Zhong had never let him feel this way. The Fang Tian Hua Ji in his hand danced again. However, this time, he no longer had a head-on encounter with the other party. He relied on horsepower, either collapsed or challenged, and even beaten. Although the young man was young, his martial arts skills were superb. His heavy weapons were light and he hid, which made Lu Bu feel ridiculous. He was not facing a boy, but a martial arts master who had been immersed in martial arts for decades, and even began to suppress himself in his skills.
"Bang~"
After several rounds, the two weapons finally collided again. Lu Bu's arms were a little numb. The eyes of the boy looked at him with an unspeakable excitement. It had not been like this for many years.
If Liu Xie was here, he would have discovered that the clouds were faintly above Lu Bu's head, and his luck gathered, and he was faintly in the shape of a wolf.
At the same time, Chang'an, thousands of miles away, Lu Bu, who was discussing matters with Jia Xu and Guo Jia, suddenly felt an unspeakable depression. The dragon energy in his body rose out uncontrollably, and turned into a golden dragon of luck that was seventy feet long in length above Chengming Palace, roaring towards the north.
At the same time, the golden bell kept shaking in the middle of his eyebrows, and a message came into his mind: "Host, please note that General Lu Bu encountered stars from the sky. Will he consume the dragon energy to help him break through and condense his natal energy?"
Stars from the sky? What?
Liu Xie was puzzled, but he also knew that Lu Bu could help Lu Bu with the dragon energy. He nodded without hesitation and said, "Accurate!"
The consumption of dragon energy can be compensated. Liu Xie cannot afford to lose the general and father-in-law.
As Liu Xie thought, the true dragon of Qiyun roared in the sky, and his body suddenly shrank sharply, shrinking to a size of ten feet, falling back into Liu Xie's body in a little sluggish manner. At the same time, a Qiyun dragon split out in the sky. After hovering in the air for a while, he bowed towards the direction of Chengming Palace, and disappeared strangely in an instant.
Thousands of miles away, Lu Bu was once again suppressed in all directions. He was puzzled. The boy in front of him was young, but if he was powerful, he could be said to be born with divine power, but his superb martial arts were incomprehensible. But at this moment, he felt extremely aggrieved in his heart. He was invincible in the Central Plains, but he was actually suppressed by a Hu boy.
On the top of my head, the aura of my life that was about to condense was shaking and had already condensed into a wolf shape. At this moment, under the suppression of the boy, it had collapsed into a ball of white mist, as if it was a candle in the wind, but my life was suppressed by the boy's fate and was about to collapse.
How can a mortal destiny fight against the stars?
Unwillingness, strong unwillingness kept rising in Lu Bu's heart, and he danced the Fang Tian Huaji in his hand to fight hard with the other party, but every time, he was shocked to death.
Zhao Yun was shocked to see him. He had long experienced Lu Bu's strength. Now he was beaten so embarrassed by a boy from a foreign race. He wanted to come forward to help, but was shouted back by Lu Bu.
"Retreat, if I die in battle, break through immediately!" Lu Bu let out a wolf howl, poured his arms into force, and slashed out again.
A joke flashed in the boy's eyes. The game of cat playing with mice was over. The Xianbei people around him were constantly joking, and they even looked at Zhao Yun and other Han troops. Just when Lu Bu was defeated, they were about to rush up to tear the Han people apart.
"Die!"
An evil smile flashed across the corner of the boy's mouth. He was about to kill him, but his expression suddenly changed. In the field of vision that ordinary people could not see, a golden light fell from the sky at an incredible speed and landed on the top of Lu Bu's head, quickly gathering with Lu Bu's original life. The original life atmosphere that was originally about to fall was condensed again, but this time, it was not a wolf-shaped figure, but a red dragon entrenched on Lu Bu's head.
Lu Bu, who was already exhausted, suddenly felt a new force gushing out of his body. Before he could think about it, the Fang Tian Hua Ji in his hand had already slashed out.
"Buzz~"
The two weapons collided in the air, but did not make a sound of metal and iron clashing. At that moment, the air between the two weapons was compressed into liquid and then dissipated. The huge recoil force made the two of them retreat.
"Come again!" Lu Bu only felt a strange aura flowing all over his body, making him feel like he was reborn. His already powerful force was a little more powerful at this moment. There was never a moment when he felt that his power was so great, as if even the sky could be broken.
"Huh~"
When Fang Tian waved his halberd, the whole world seemed to tremble. Seeing this, the boy opposite changed his expression and quickly waved his weapons, which also caused the heaven and earth to shake. The two powers clashed in the air, and there were continuous subtle explosions of aura. In the eyes of outsiders, there was an illusion that the heaven and earth were separated by the two.
Bang ~
When the weapons collided, the two men trembled, they retreated a little, and then waved their weapons at the same time. One side seemed to crush the heaven and earth, while the other side was a stalemate of the power of a country. The two different auras collided together, which made the heaven and earth look different.
"Click~"
After another collision, the weapon in the boy's hand made a slight sound, but he was the first to be unable to withstand the blessing of the huge power of the two, and began to shatter.
The boy's expression changed, but Lu Bu was in power and refused to let go. Fang Tian's painting halberd turned into the air and slashed again.
"Ding~"
The weapons collided, and immediately after the young man's astonished gaze, the straight pole in his hand was cut off by Lu Bu's halberd. A cold light flashed by, and his eyes widened in astonishment, with an incredible look in his eyes, as if he didn't believe that he would be killed.
At the same time, a ball of golden light appeared above the head, as if it was about to fly out.
But above Lu Bu's head, the aura of the red dragon was weak, and a golden dragon flew out and instantly turned into a 50-meter-long dragon. Before the golden light escaped, he roared and swallowed the golden light into his stomach. Then he roared excitedly and then left the south.
At the same time, the golden bell kept shaking in Liu Xie's mind.
"Congratulations to the host, the great Han general Lu Bu was washed by the dragon energy, condensed his life atmosphere, and successfully stimulated his special talent: the dragon general protects the country, and in the battle for the country, his force will be permanently +5"
"Congratulations to the host, Lu Bu successfully killed the stars from the earth and stimulated his special talent: breaking the gods, which can directly cause damage to ghosts and gods, and the basic force is permanently +1."
Not to mention how Liu Xie reacted. After Lu Bu killed the young man with a spear, as Liu Xie temporarily borrowed the dragon energy, he suddenly felt weak. Although he didn't know what was going on, it was obviously not the time to hesitate.
Looking at the corpse of the young man, Lu Busen looked at the Xianbei people who were confused and worried as the commander died in battle. He suddenly raised the Fang Tian Hua Ji in his hand and shouted sternly: "My sons, kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions. Today, I will kill you!"
"kill!"
As Lu Bu showed his might and killed the enemy generals in one fell swoop, the Han army, which was originally low in morale, regained its spirit. At this moment, Lu Bu raised his arms and raised his weapons high, roaring and storming the Xianbei soldiers who were confused and morale plummeted.
