Emperor Ling of Han was the last powerful emperor of the Han Dynasty, a figure who could have altered the course of history, yet he became the root cause of the empire's collapse.
Fate ha...
Seeing Lü Bu approaching with a smile, Yan Jin blushed and stood there somewhat at a loss.
After several months apart, Lü Bu, having just returned from his trip to Juyan, appears to be much more mature than before.
The brave, gentle, and mature Lü Bu was extremely dangerous to Yan Jin.
Looking at Yan Jin, who was standing there in a daze, a hint of tenderness appeared in Lü Bu's eyes.
"Thank you!!"
Hearing Lu Bu's gentle voice, Yan Jin's heart couldn't help but beat faster.
"Thank...thank me for what?"
Yan Jin lowered his head and spoke in increasingly softer voices.
"Heh~, of course I'm thanking you for taking care of Zhen'er! What else can I thank you for? Thank you for mending my clothes?"
Lu Bu couldn't help but chuckle, a slight smile playing on his lips.
"Young master, you...?"
When Yan Jin saw the usually serious Lü Bu suddenly teasing him, he felt shy but also secretly delighted.
"Jin'er... from now on, please don't call me Young Master anymore, just call me Fengxian!"
As he spoke, Lü Bu chuckled softly and reached out to take Yan Jin's delicate hand in his.
"Feng...Fengxian?"
The sound of "Jin'er" made Yan Jin's heart tremble, and then she felt her small hand fall into Lu Bu's lecherous hand.
Yan Jin couldn't help but look up at Lü Bu. Seeing Lü Bu's clear eyes and resolute face, Yan Jin felt his cheeks burning hot.
Seeing Yan Jin's shy appearance, Lü Bu's heart stirred, and he suddenly grabbed Yan Jin's hand and pulled her forcefully towards himself.
"Ah~!"
Lu Bu's sudden attack startled Yan Jin, who then stumbled and crashed straight into Lu Bu's chest.
Then Lü Bu reached out and gently pulled Yan Jin into his arms.
What are you doing?
Sensing Lü Bu's movement, Yan Jin subconsciously struggled.
What do you think?
As he spoke, Lü Bu tightened his arms around Yan Jin slightly, bringing Yan Jin closer to his chest.
"I.....!"
Feeling Lu Bu's firm and broad chest, Yan Jin couldn't help but give up struggling, reaching out to wrap his arms around Lu Bu's waist, and burying his head in Lu Bu's chest.
In an instant, a sour, pungent smell of love wafted through the air.
"Brother~ Hug me...!"
When Lü Zhen saw her brother suddenly hug someone else, she immediately pouted and reached out her little hands to tug at Lü Bu's clothes.
"open!!"
Lu Zhen's childish voice brought Yan Jin back to his senses. He then broke free from Lu Bu's embrace and ran into the house.
Upon seeing Yan Jin fleeing, Lü Bu merely smiled and did not give chase.
"Come here, let your big brother hug you!!"
Then, Lü Bu picked up Lü Zhen with a doting expression, seemingly unconcerned that Lü Zhen had just ruined his plans.
"Giggle~!"
Lu Zhen, who was being held in Lu Bu's arms, also laughed and reached out her little hands to hug Lu Bu's neck.
"Zhen'er, how about your brother takes you horseback riding?"
"Alright! Let's ride horses...!"
Upon hearing that they were going horseback riding, Lü Zhen immediately became excited.
"Haha~, let's go!!"
Seeing how much Lü Zhen enjoyed riding horses, Lü Bu couldn't help but burst into laughter, then carried Lü Zhen towards the training ground.
The news that Lü Bu had taken Lü Zhen horseback riding quickly reached Zhang Huan's ears, and Zhang Huan's face immediately darkened.
"Go quickly and bring that brat back to me. I'll teach him a lesson!"
"Report!!"
Just as Zhang Huan was fuming and glaring, a scout suddenly rushed into the tent.
"Reporting to the general, a force of over a hundred men is heading towards our Bingzhou camp, and they are less than thirty li away from here!"
"Hmm? What kind of team?"
Zhang Huan couldn't help but ask.
"Among the ranks are soldiers of my Han army and Xianbei people, but... they are carrying Han flags, and the leader is dressed in the attire of an official of my Great Han!"
"It must be the envoy His Majesty sent to the Xianbei who has returned!"
Upon hearing the scout's report, Zhang Huan quickly guessed that the team must be Chu Qian's.
"Someone come here!!"
Upon hearing Zhang Huan's call, a guard who was standing outside the tent quickly entered.
"What are your orders, General?"
Zhang Huan looked at his personal guards and said loudly, "Quickly! At the same time, notify Fengxian and Gongren, as well as all the officers and soldiers in the army, to assemble in the main tent immediately!!"
"promise!!"
Upon receiving Zhang Huan's order, Lü Bu, Gao Shun, and a group of generals and officers hurriedly arrived at the central command tent.
Sitting in his general's seat, Zhang Huan looked at all the generals in the tent, who had all arrived, and then looked at Gao Shun.
"Gao Shun!"
"Your subordinate is here!"
Gao Shun, whose name was called, immediately stepped forward and bowed to Zhang Huan.
"Immediately muster your five thousand infantrymen and have them march out of the camp and form ranks!"
"Your subordinate obeys!"
After Gao Shun responded loudly, he immediately turned around and strode away from the tent.
"Lu Bu!"
"Your subordinate is here!"
Lu Bu, whose name was called, quickly stepped forward.
Zhang Huan looked at Lü Bu and said in a deep voice, "Immediately lead five thousand cavalry out of the camp to welcome and escort the Han envoy back!"
"General, aren't you taking the Bingzhou wolf cavalry with you?"
Upon hearing that he was only to be sent with five thousand cavalry, Lü Bu looked at Zhang Huan with a puzzled expression.
Zhang Huan chuckled and explained, "Hehe~, there are Xianbei people in that group. The Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry is the trump card of our Bingzhou army, and we can't easily expose it to the Xianbei!"
