Chapter 412 Cao Mengde What do you want to do?
Luo Jiu reluctantly put on his shoes and went to the outer door to listen to the noise coming from the next room.
As expected, Cao Cao and Chen Gong woke up. There was the sound of swords being unsheathed, and then Cao Cao spoke.
"They want to kill me. If we don't take action first, we will definitely be captured by them."
Chen Gong hesitated and said, "We were all drinking happily together yesterday, why did they suddenly want to kill us? Besides, there are five people including Miss Luo here, how can they do it?"
As he was speaking, Lü Bushe opened the gate of the manor, mounted Cao Cao's horse and went out.
Cao Cao said: "Maybe yesterday it was just to calm us down. As for the five girls, if they didn't wake up, it would have nothing to do with them.
If he is awake, he is not their accomplice and may not save us. We should kill him together.
Lü Bushe is not my closest relative, and it is suspicious that he is out at this time. I would rather kill him by mistake than let him go. I would rather let the world betray me than let the world betray me."
"You..." Chen Gong was about to persuade him, but Cao Cao had already opened the door with a knife in hand.
Just as he was about to go find the son of the Lu family, he suddenly heard a voice behind him shouting, "Cao Mengde, what do you want to do?"
Cao Cao turned around and laughed, "Miss Luo, why are you awake at this time?"
Luo Jiu sneered, "If I don't wake up, I'm afraid you'll make a big mistake."
Cao Cao's face darkened. "What do you mean by that?"
Luo Jiu glared at him and said, "They are kind enough to entertain you, but you suspect they want to kill you. Lü Bushe went out to get the wine pot, and there is a pig under the kitchen, you can take a look first."
Cao Cao hesitated for a moment, then went to the kitchen with a knife in hand.
Chen Gong came out at this time, and when he saw Luo Jiu, he asked, "Miss, how did you know there was a pig in the kitchen?"
Luo Jiu smiled and said, "I also know that Cao Cao is not a wise leader. Gongtai, you are resourceful and resourceful. Make plans early."
Luo Jiu went back to his room to sleep, but when he lay down he found that Cheng Yaoyao was also awake.
Cheng Yaoyao asked: "Don't you need to keep an eye on it?"
"No need." Luo Jiu said: "He is suspicious, not mentally ill. He will not kill people for no reason."
At this moment, Cao Cao arrived at the kitchen. The Lu brothers were stunned, "Brother Aman, why are you up at this time?"
Cao Cao blushed, "I...I heard you guys were going to kill a pig, so I came to help."
So Cao Cao, still hungover and dazed, followed the process of slaughtering pigs all morning.
At daybreak, Lü Bushe came back from outside, carrying a large pot of wine and vegetables and fruits.
"Nephew, why don't you get some more sleep?"
Cao Cao sighed, "I am worried about the emperor and can't sleep at night."
"Hey~" Luo Jiu and the others were brushing their teeth by the sink, and Feng Qi made a timely retching sound.
Cao Cao glanced at them and went to the kitchen to roast the pig's head.
Feng Qi looked at Luo Jiu, "How can he say such a thing so brazenly?"
Luo Jiu smiled and patted Feng Qi on the shoulder. "Hypocrisy is the basic skill of politicians. Politics is never a clean and clear question of right and wrong.
In order to achieve the ultimate goal, feigning compliance, conspiracy and game-playing are all necessary means. In this chaotic world, it is more difficult to reach the center of power than in modern times.
Here, the emperor's bloodline, the legitimate reason for the teacher's action, and reputation are valued. On the surface, it is the division of the princes. In fact, it is the birth of an actor.
Maybe one day, I will be forced to do such a performance, can you understand?"
Feng Qi said hurriedly, "That's different. If everyone else is acting and you don't, then you're going to lose, right? It's just like when we're competing in martial arts. If others use hidden weapons and we don't, we'll suffer. We can't suffer. If we want to act, we have to act better than others."
Zhong Jialing: "That's right, I'll prepare some eye drops for you later. Isn't Liu Bei able to cry? You should cry before him, and cry more bitterly than him, so that it will move heaven and earth."
As everyone was talking and laughing, Lü Bushe called out, "My friends, the meal is ready. Come and eat some pork."
A genuine farm pig and a pot of broth, the fragrance fills the yard.
Mrs. Lu served each person a large bowl of food. Everyone gnawed on the pork bones, drank the broth, and after a hearty meal, they set off on their own journey.
Before leaving, Cao Cao suddenly said, "I want to build a righteous army, and I will definitely achieve great things in the future. Miss Luo, are you willing to join me? I will offer you the position of military advisor."
Luo Jiu smiled and declined, "Thank you for your kindness, Brother Cao. I have other things to do and cannot obey your order. But I believe that we will meet again in the near future."
Cao Cao nodded, "Okay, everyone has their own aspirations, so Gongtai and I will go first."
The two men mounted their horses and left, and Luo Jiu and others also said goodbye to Lu Bushe's family.
Mrs. Lu packed three pounds of cooked pork and half an elbow and stuffed them with them. "We ate a lot of your dry food yesterday. We don't have much to give you. You can take these with you on the way."
Luo Jiu had no choice but to accept it and secretly exchanged glances with Cheng Yaoyao.
The five of them walked back together, saying as they walked: "The Lü Bushe family is really hospitable, it's worth our rescue."
Cheng Yaoyao said, "They are a poor family with many people, so it's not easy for them to come up with these. I just put twenty taels of silver on the table. Let's go quickly, lest they find us and catch up to give us back."
Feng Qi took the lead and started running. It was quite tiring to have a forced march at the beginning of the day.
Ancient skirts are not convenient for running. The road is not hardened yet and is full of dirt. Zhong Jialing kept coughing while running. "How about we take out the car?"
Luo Jiu: "You took out a car at this time, do you want to scare people to death?"
Zhong Jialing: "It's in this remote place, where is there anyone around?"
Before he finished speaking, he heard a voice from behind: "Girls... please stay..."
Feng Qi: "It's over, the Lu family is chasing us, run!"
She and Fubao grabbed one with their left hand and the other with their right hand. Zhong Jialing was held in the middle by the two of them. Before her feet could even touch the ground, she was already being carried away and running.
The sound was getting closer and closer. Luo Jiu turned around and said, "Wait, it's Chen Gong."
Chen Gong rode his horse as fast as he could all the way and finally caught up with them.
He got off his horse and couldn't help but complain, "Why are you running?"
Zhong Jialing sat on the ground, panting, and pointed at Feng Qi and Fu Bao on both sides, "Ask them."
Feng Qi: "Oh, we have to exercise like this every day."
Luo Jiu smiled and asked, "Brother Gongtai, what do you want from us?"
Chen Gong bowed and said, "Miss Luo, I thought about it and you are right. Cao Mengde is definitely not a good person and not a wise leader. I am a good man, how can I help the tyrant to do evil? I have decided to abandon the dark and join the light and leave Cao Cao."
Luo Jiu smiled and said, "You are such a smart man. Who are you going to rely on next?"
Chen Gong's eyes were firm. "You."
Luo Jiu was stunned, "Me?"
Chen Gong said, "Don't you want to be the hero? Last night you talked about the general situation of the world. You said that if the princes were to form an alliance, you or Cao Cao would be the leader and lead the heroes of the world to kill Dong Zhuo.
At that time, I had heard the young lady's lofty ambitions. Now I have left Cao Cao. As long as the young lady is willing, Chen Gong is willing to follow her and accomplish great things. "
Chen Gong knelt on his knees and bowed to the ground as he spoke.
Feng Qi's eyes widened in surprise, and he mouthed, "Oh my god, there's an unexpected gain?"
