"Miss Lu, I can see that you care about Tian'er very much." Ganji looked into Lu Lingqi's eyes and said.
"We are all friends..." Lu Lingqi lowered her head in embarrassment.
"I'm very grateful for your help to our family. It's a pity that I, Qian'er, married Xuande, and now I'm at loggerheads with your father. You and Tian'er should have as little contact as possible. Your status is so disparate, and there is no relationship between you. As a result..." Ganji said unhurriedly.
Lu Lingqi suddenly felt a blank in her mind, thinking, is Ziyu's adoptive father going to oppose us?
"If one day in the future, Xuande dies under your father's halberd, or General Lu dies at the hands of Xuande, how will you and Tian'er deal with it?" Ganji asked again.
Although Ganji was just an old farmer from the countryside, Lu Lingqi's defense was instantly broken by these simple words.
what to do?
What should Lan Tian and I do?
"Let's go. Tian'er is indifferent by nature and has probably been a farmer all his life. Miss Lu, don't delay yourself." Ganji advised again.
When Lu Lingqi heard this, the tears in her eyes were about to burst. She turned her head and turned her back to Gan Ji, and then said lightly: "I know, uncle, please tell Sister Gan and Lan Tian that I have to leave beforehand." Already..."
After Lu Lingqi finished speaking, she left without looking back. Ganji's eyes were also red, but he knew that he did the right thing and there was no need for the two young people to regret it in the future.
Gan Qian finished washing the dishes and walked out of the room, and saw Gan Ji looking lonely into the distance.
"Dad, where is Miss Lu? Have you gone to the village to look for your brother? These two are really a good match." Gan Qian said with a smile.
"I asked her to go back..." Ganji sighed.
"But why?" Gan Qian asked in shock.
"Since you have married Xuande, you can't become enemies with Tian'er in the future, right?" Ganji shook his head and said.
Gan Qian was shocked after hearing this. Although she thought her father was right, he seemed a bit cruel to Lan Tian and Lu Lingqi.
"What will happen when my brother comes back soon?" Gan Qian asked.
"I'll tell him." Ganji said firmly.
Lu Lingqi has a resolute personality. Walking in the countryside of Ganjiazhuang, she remembered many beautiful pasts, but Gan's father's words made sense. Why should she embarrass Lan Tian in the future?
Unknowingly, she had reached the entrance of the village. Only one of the two accompanying soldiers went to Xiaopei, while the other stood here waiting for her.
"Miss, let's go to Xiaopei to rest for one night and then return to Xiapi tomorrow?"
Lu Lingqi shook her head and said, "I'm worried about my father's safety, so we rushed back overnight."
The waiting soldier was startled, thinking that the young lady's energy was too good, and then replied: "Okay, I'll leave a mark for my companion."
Lu Lingqi rode her horse through the night. Although she didn't sleep a wink all day and night, she didn't feel tired at all.
After returning to Xiapi, Lu Lingqi locked herself in the boudoir, and the maid brought in and took out the meals every day.
Lu Bu asked: "What's wrong with Lingqi these days? I don't see her going to the school grounds to practice martial arts?"
Yan said with some distress: "Hao Meng rebelled that night. Lingqi worked hard all night and went to Xiaopei to deliver a letter to Zhang Liao the next day. She was exhausted."
"Lingqi is also stubborn. She has to do this kind of thing herself. If Gao Boping hadn't sent someone to accompany her, no one would have known if she fell from fatigue on the way." Lu Bu sighed.
"It's not that your daughter feels sorry for you. Treat her better in the future." Yan said.
Lu Bu nodded, sat in the pavilion and continued drinking to relieve his boredom.
After Hao Meng's rebellion, many armored guards were added to the government office where Lu Bu lived.
Not long after, a guard came to the front yard to report that a letter had been sent from Xu You.
Lu Bu opened the book bag and found that Cao Cao was interceding for Liu Bei.
In the letter, Cao Cao said that he wanted to declare Lu Bu to be the Mu of Xuzhou. He also said that Liu Bei had made great contributions to the expedition against Yuan Shu, and the imperial court had granted him the title of Yuzhou Mu, allowing him to temporarily station in Xiaopei. He also asked Lu Bu to temporarily make peace with Liu Bei and cease the war. Defeat Yuan Shu.
Lu Bu's appointment as Xuzhou Mu was self-proclaimed, while Liu Bei's appointment as Yuzhou Governor was made by Tao Qian, neither of which was officially recognized by the court. Now that Cao Cao was disobeyed by the emperor's orders, the official appointment by the court had different meanings.
Lü Bu was overjoyed after receiving the letter, so he sent someone to send a message to Zhang Liao, asking him to hand over to Liu Bei as soon as possible and let Liu Bei garrison Xiaopei again.
Because of the sneak attack on Yanzhou, Lu Bu and Cao Cao had a deep hatred. Now that Cao Cao is showing favor to Liu Bei, he will naturally give up.
After the previous battle in Xiaopei, Lu Bu had a new estimate of Liu Bei's combat power. Those newly recruited soldiers who lacked training and war baptism at least did not pose much of a threat to him.
After Zhang Liao received Lu Bu's military order, he took the initiative to send people to Yuzhou to search for Liu Bei's traces.
After Liu Bei fled to Xudu, he was warmly received by Cao Cao. Not only did he officially become the shepherd of Yuzhou, but he was also given thousands of soldiers and food and grass to return to Xiaopei to gather his old troops and help the court contain Lu Bu and Yuan Shu.
After Zhang Liao completed the handover, he led his army back to Xiapi to resume his duties, and Xiaopei's captured family members returned to Liu Bei.
"Why don't you see Mrs. Gan?" Liu Bei didn't see Gan Qian among his family members, so he asked everyone confused.
Mi Zhen said: "She was not brought back to Xiaopei after the city was destroyed. She may still be at Ganjiazhuang at this time..."
"Lord..." Mi Zhu hesitated before speaking.
"Zizhong has suffered these days. If you have anything to say, you might as well say it clearly." Liu Bei said.
"After Lu Bu broke the city, he had no money or silk to work for the army. Xiaopei had many connections with Chen Hanyu, so he allowed his soldiers to plunder the villages outside the city. Ganjiazhuang may not be spared. It's hard to say whether Mrs. Gan is safe..." Mi Zhu said slowly.
Grabbing things and food was the next best thing. Mrs. Gan was born like a flower. If he was insulted by those bastards, Liu Xuande's face would be dull.
"Second brother, you stay in Xiaopei to appease the generals. Third brother and I will go to Ganjiazhuang." Liu Bei said.
"Brother, go ahead. My sister-in-law is a lucky person and there is no harm done." Guan Yu comforted her.
The two of them quickly left the city. Compared to the political marriage with Mi Zhen, Liu Bei still liked Gan Qian more.
At this time, Gan Qian was also waiting anxiously at home. Today, Zhang Liao was mobilized to lead his army to Manan. Lan Tian predicted that Liu Bei should have returned to Xiaopei. During this period, Gan Ji had to go and the two of them hid in the shelter. After the last encounter, this old man Has become a frightened bird.
Gan Qian saw that her foster brother was full of confidence. Not only did he not go to the shelter, but he also took the initiative to go to the village to comfort the people.
Lan Tian's words should be true, Gan Qian is almost superstitious about him now.
In less than half an hour, Liu Bei and Zhang Fei came to the village to look for someone. Naturally, Liu Bei was overjoyed to see Gan Qian's figure.
"Madam...how are you doing lately?" Liu Bei asked, holding Gan Qian's hand.
"On that day when the city was destroyed, my father and I hid in the shelter, so we escaped." Gan Qian was afraid that Liu Bei would be suspicious, so she immediately explained.
"Shelter? Sister-in-law, what is a shelter?" Zhang Fei asked confused.
"Husband, uncle, please follow me." Gan Qian led the two of them directly to the back of the house.
Gan Qian knocked on the lid of the shelter, and then said to Ganji below: "Dad, don't hide down there, Xuande is coming to find us."
There was only a creaking sound, and Ganji opened the lid and exposed his head.
"Brother, isn't this cover-up too realistic?" Zhang Fei said in surprise.
