Xiaopei City.
Liu Bei, who was driven out of Xuzhou City by Lu Bu, took his two sworn brothers, Jian Yong, Sun Qian and others and fled here in embarrassment.
After taking a short rest, Liu Bei smiled bitterly and said to everyone,
"It's all because of the ignorance of Bei Shi, who allowed Lu Bu to seize the city of Xuzhou and bring all of you to this place."
"My lord, you are serious. It's our fault for not being able to take precautions in time."
"Yes, my lord, don't blame yourself."
Everyone also offered kind words and advice.
"But in the end, it's all Yang Ling's fault!"
Zhang Fei was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
"If it weren't for him, how could Lu Bu think of joining forces with Cao Bao to seize Xuzhou City?"
"That's right. This guy is really not a good person, and he dared to rob me... What a shameless villain!"
Jian Yong also stared angrily and said angrily.
"That's wrong. Speaking of which, I was responsible for all this!"
Liu Bei waved his hand and just sighed.
If he had not favored Zhang Fei at the beginning and had Yang Ling's assistance, his current power would be at least similar to that of Cao Cao, right?
It's a pity that it's too late to say anything!
Just because he offended Yang Ling, his fiancée was robbed and the city of Xuzhou was lost!
Thinking of this, while Liu Bei felt deeply regretful, he had a premonition that Yang Ling would be his strong enemy!
…
Xuzhou City.
"Congratulations to Zhou Mu, congratulations to Zhou Mu!"
Cao Bao and other Yanzhou officials congratulated Lu Bu one after another.
Lu Bu sat high in the hall, his face turned into a flower with a smile.
"The victory over Xuzhou City this time is all due to your help. Bu is not an ungrateful villain like Liu Bei, so he will naturally reward you and others more."
Hearing these words, Cao Bao and others felt reassured.
Why do they help Lu Bu? Isn't it just for profit?
"By the way, Wenyuan, where did Liu Bei's fellow escape to?"
Lu Bu thought of something and said to Zhang Liao who was standing aside.
"Reporting to Marquis Wen, he is currently resting in Xiaopei City."
Zhang Liao replied.
"Big-eared thief, you too have today!"
Recalling that when he defected to Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei treated him badly, and Liu Bei sent him to Xiaopei, Lu Bu couldn't help but sneer on his face.
"Send my military order to attack Liu Bei immediately!"
Zhang Liao did not accept the order immediately, but hesitated for a moment.
"Marquis Wen, my subordinate has something to say, I don't know whether to say it or not!"
"Wen Yuan's words are too polite, just say it anyway!"
Lu Bu laughed.
The successful capture of Xuzhou City this time was thanks to Zhang Liao who traveled day and night to lead his army.
"No matter what Liu Bei's attitude is, he was the one who took us in in the first place. If we attack Xiaopei, won't everyone in the world laugh at Marquis Wen for being ungrateful?"
"Marquis Wen might as well write to Liu Bei, expressing his willingness to reconcile and place him in Xiaopei."
"Firstly, we can show Marquis Wen's benevolence, and secondly, we can use him as a barrier. In the future, whether Cao Cao or Yuan Shu comes to attack us, Liu Bei can take the lead."
Zhang Liao said slowly.
Lu Bu's eyes lit up, he put his hands on his hands and laughed and said,
"General Wen Yuan's words deeply touched my heart! I will do as you say!"
After solving Liu Bei's problem, Lu Bu sighed again,
"It's just a pity that Mr. Chen Jinnan left without saying goodbye!"
Speaking of taking Xuzhou City, Chen Jinnan should be the first to take the lead.
Lu Bu originally wanted to treat him to a banquet to see if he could keep him by his side.
But he didn't expect that Chen Jinnan and Zhao Yun would rob Liu Bei's fiancée in the city and then leave without saying goodbye.
This makes Lu Bu very sorry!
After hearing this, Zhang Liao's expression instantly became strange.
He hesitated for a moment and then said slowly,
"Marquis Wen, I have one more thing to say, I don't know whether to say it or not..."
"Wenyuan, why are you so hesitant to speak today?"
Lu Bu said impatiently.
"Liu Bei had previously sent Sun Qian as an envoy to Xudu to meet the emperor, but he had heard about the whereabouts of Lady Diao Chan."
Zhang Liao said.
"What? Where is my Diao Chan!"
Lu Bu immediately became excited and said quickly.
"It is said that Mrs. Diaochan and Miss Lingqi... were both rewarded by Cao Cao to a man named Yang Ling."
The smile on Lu Bu's face suddenly froze.
Did Cao Cao give his wife and daughter to others?
Then what he promised himself before was all bullshit!
"Cao Ahao! You and I are at odds with each other!"
Lu Bu roared angrily, his face distorted,
"Go and investigate to find out who the man named Yang Ling is! If I meet him in the future, I will definitely cut off his head!"
Zhang Liao's expression became even weirder.
"According to the identification of Liu Bei's soldiers, the person who kidnapped Mi Zhen today was Yang Ling."
"Chen Jinnan seems to be a pseudonym used by Yang Ling. He and Miss Mi are in love. They came to Xuzhou City this time to steal the bride!"
Lu Bu was completely stunned.
What?
Is Chen Jinnan Yang Ling? !
No wonder he refused to surrender to him and ran away quickly after snatching the bride!
It turned out that I was worried about my identity being exposed!
Lu Bu suddenly realized this and was so angry that he almost vomited blood!
Yang Ling, a bastard, just wants his wife and daughter.
He even deceived himself into helping him steal his bride!
I have simply become the stupidest cuckold in the world!
"Yang Ling! I will kill you!"
Lu Bu yelled and looked at everyone coldly,
"If anyone spreads this matter, I will make his life worse than death!"
Cao Bao and others remained silent and nodded in agreement.
But they didn't take it seriously. If you have the ability, go to Yang Ling to settle the score. What's the point of threatening us?
…
A few days later.
Xudu.
Yang Ling successfully took Zhao Yun and Mi Zhen back to his house.
Upon hearing the news that he had returned safely, Dian Wei and Xu Chu rushed out.
"Big brother! Third brother!"
"Big brother! Third brother!"
Seeing Yang Ling and Zhao Yun safe and sound, Dian Wei and Xu Chu were very excited.
The four brothers also hugged each other, and the scene was quite touching.
"By the way, Zhen'er, let me introduce to you. This is my fourth brother Xu Chu."
Yang Ling said with a smile,
"Zhongkang, this is your sister-in-law!"
Mi Zhen glanced at Xu Chu, smiled and said,
"I heard before that my husband has another sworn brother. When I see him today, he is really brave and unparalleled!"
Xu Zhu touched the back of his head and grinned,
"Sister-in-law is so praised! I didn't expect that my sister-in-law is as good as the other two sisters-in-law, and she is also so beautiful!"
As soon as these words came out, Yang Ling's smile froze, and she secretly thought something was wrong.
You know, he hasn't had time to tell Mi Zhen about Diao Chan and Lu Lingqi!
as expected.
Mi Zhen's pretty face turned cold, then she pretended as if nothing had happened, smiled sweetly and said,
"Uncle Zhongkang, did you just talk about the other two sisters-in-law?"
Xu Chu had no idea what was going on and smiled stupidly,
"Yes, sister-in-law, don't you know? Those two sisters-in-law were given to eldest brother by the Lord... What's wrong, third brother, why are you kicking me?"
Zhao Yun, who noticed something was wrong, lightly kicked Xu Chu.
But Xu Chu still looked at him confused.
