Guan Yu proposed his conditions, and Lu Xun sneered twice: "General Guan thinks his lord is still Cao Gong of the past?"

He thought he had done a good job, but he didn't expect that Lu Xun would reply, and Guan Yu was speechless.

Lu Xun continued: "General Guan also said to Cao Gong that Cao Gong treats you well, but what did you do later? He betrayed Cao Gong, returned to Liu Xuande, and continued to be enemies with the Cao family. Now that Liu Xuande is dead, if the general sincerely serves, the lord will definitely use it. But the general puts forward such irrelevant conditions, how can the lord accept it?"

He bowed his hand and said to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei: "The two generals should think about it carefully. I will only give two of you three days. In a few days, if the lord wants to leave Hanzhong, I will follow him. Three days later, if the two generals still refuse to serve, don't blame me for not being sympathetic!"

Leaving these words, Lu Xun didn't give Guan Yu and Zhang Fei a chance to talk, and turned around and left.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei looked surprised.

When Lu Xun left, Zhang Fei asked Guan Yu, "Second brother, what should I do?"

"There are three days left, let's think about it again." Guan Yu's face was filled with loss.

Zhang Fei had no other way, so he could only sigh.

Guan Yu used this trick to deal with Cao Cao.

Later, he betrayed Cao Cao and left, and Cao Cao had no choice but to do anything about him.

"Cao Zirong obviously has different personality as Cao Mengde." Sitting against the fence, Guan Yu said leisurely: "Cao Mengde loves talents and is no longer apart from me. But Cao Zirong is not my use, so he would rather kill than stay!"

"What my second brother means is that Cao Zirong will kill us?" Zhang Fei asked.

"Of course he will kill us." Guan Yu replied: "If we both refuse to serve, do you think Cao Zirong will be merciful?"

Zhang Fei didn't say anything else and sighed heavier than before.

Lu Xun left the prison and only took Cao Shuo.

Cao Shu was waiting for him in the study.

As soon as Lu Xun entered the house, Cao Shu asked him: "How is it? Did Guan Yu say that if Liu Xuande is not dead, they will look for their brother in the future?"

"The lord really knows Guan Yu." Lu Xun replied: "That's what he said. I have explained it to him in accordance with the lord's instructions."

Lu Xun then asked, "Lord, if Guan Yu refuses to surrender, do you really want to kill him?"

"If you can't use it for me, what's the use of keeping him?" Cao Shu said: "Liu Xuande is dead, and I'm not worried that they will leave. But they stayed here, but their minds are elsewhere. I keep them, sooner or later it will be a disaster."

"What the lord said is, it's just a pity." Lu Xun replied: "I don't know how Liu Xuande did it, but he can actually make the people who come to be devoted."

"It's nothing more than brotherhood," Cao Shu said: "Although Liu Xuande is not kind, he is still good to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. The two have had a swornship with him, and with their personality, it is impossible to easily betray them. After many years, they have become habits with each other, and it is even more impossible to separate."

"The lord believes that they are just a habit?" Lu Xun asked.

"Does Bo Yan think there are other things?" Cao Shu said with a smile: "Habits are already very deadly. If everyone under my command becomes a habit, when I become an emperor in the future, even if I ignore the government for decades, I will not make any mistakes!"

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei lived in prison like a year, and finally survived three days.

It was three days later that Lu Xun appeared in front of them again.

When he came outside Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's cell, Lu Xun asked: "What are the two generals thinking?"

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei both stood up.

"General Bo Yan, are you sure my brother has passed away?" Guan Yu asked.

"Does General Guan think I'm messing with you?" Lu Xun asked back.

He asked him and didn't know how to respond. Guan Yu said, "My third brother and I have already decided to join the King of Wei. It's just..."

"General Guan should be clear that the lord will not accept your conditions." Lu Xun interrupted him: "I have already told the general the conditions to the lord. He asked me to tell you that Liu Xuande is dead and there is no such person in the world since then. If the two generals are willing to follow him, he will personally hold a banquet for the two. If the two generals still have friendship with Liu Xuande, the lord will never accept it. After all, Liu Xuande died of a plague when our army conquered Yizhou. If one or two generals were in a mixed mind, wouldn't it be a disaster for raising a tiger? He would rather kill two than leave trouble for himself!"

What Lu Xun said happened to be proof of what Guan Yu said before.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei both knew very well that if they had asked for the conditions, today would be their death.

"What are the two generals thinking?" Lu Xun asked urged.

Zhang Fei asked: "If we followed King Wei, would we have done something because of what we have done in the past..."

Lu Xun laughed: "General Zhang, how do you think of me?"

Through the fence, Zhang Fei looked at Lu Xun in confusion, and Zhang Fei did not ask any questions again.

Knowing what he wanted to ask, Lu Xun continued: "I used to fight for Jiaozhou and also caused some hardships in the Wei army. Now I have taken the lord's support. Let's see if I have been disliked by my lord?"

Lu Xun was in charge of the military and political power in the entire Hanzhong, and persuaded Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to surrender, and Cao Shu also left it to him.

It can be said that Cao Shu trusts him very much.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were not in the same cell.

The two of them could only look at each other through the fence.

Guan Yu said, "The elder brother is no longer here. If we don't join the King of Wei, there will be no place for us to stand in the world. We are willing to join the King of Wei!"

"The same sentence." Lu Xun said: "Since the two generals are willing to follow the lord, they will not have two hearts in the future. Once they find out that they still have two hearts, they will be killed without mercy!"

When Lu Xun talked about the three words "kill without mercy", Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were both nervous.

Just as Guan Yu thought, they had no way out now.

If they don’t defect to Cao Shu, they have no other way to go!

"We understand what General Bo Yan means!" Guan Yu said: "Please tell the King of Wei that I will be willing to serve you sincerely."

"Since the two generals are sincerely serving, then go and make an agreement with your lord." Lu Xun ordered the guards: "Please come out."

The guard opened the cell and asked Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to come out.

Walking out of the cell, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei bowed to Lu Xun and bowed.

Guan Yu said: "General Lau Boyan has recommended us."

"It's easy to say!" Lu Xun gave way to them: "Two generals, please!"

Guan Yu and Zhang Feiqian gave in: "General Lu, please!"

Lu Xun convinced Guan Yu and Zhang Fei that they were not far from the prison, and Cao Shu, who was in the government, received the news.

Cao Shu was in the study room, and not long after, Deng Zhan's voice came from outside: "Lord, General Lu is here, General Guan and General Zhang."
