The marriage was just a formality to let everyone in the world know that Lu Bu was also a relative of the emperor.
Lu Bu was not immersed in gentleness during this period.
In addition to completing the grain selling business with Wang Yun, he also asked Wang Yun for a group of skilled craftsmen on the grounds that he would build a luxurious villa for Liu Xiao in Xuzhou in the future.
He also asked Zhang Liao, Gao Shun and others to carefully select 10,000 people from the garrison in Chang'an City to act as the bodyguard of Princess Wannian, equipped with the best armor and weapons, and then they were satisfied.
Seeing that there was nothing left to gain, Guo Si and Li Jue would lead their men back to Chang'an if they continued to waste it. Lu Bu knew it was time to leave.
So he went to Wang Yun and said, "My lord, now that we have all the food, grass, men and horses, it's time for me to go to Xuzhou and take up my post!"
Wang Yun was overjoyed after hearing this: This scoundrel is finally getting out of here!
Of course, this kind of joy cannot be expressed, because he said: "Why are you so anxious? Marquis Wen and the princess just got married..."
Lu Bu chuckled and said, "It seems to make sense! How about I stay a few more days?"
Wang Yun wanted to slap himself, so he quickly changed his words and said, "It's actually not a bad idea to leave now. If in a month or two, the weather will be hot and rainy, and the journey will inevitably be difficult..."
"Uh... To be honest, I still need some vehicles and animals to pull the carts. How about the prince lend me some more?" Lu Bu asked with a smile.
Anyway, you, Wang Yun, are going to be killed by Li Jue. It’s useless to keep so many things. You might as well let me take them away!
Wang Yundao said: "Marquis Wen, there is nothing valuable in my house now. Don't you know?"
Lu Bu smiled and said, "How do you say this? Don't you have hundreds of thousands of shi of food? Isn't this valuable?"
It sounds like you are saying that I defrauded you of your family property.
I just want to borrow some carriages and horses, but forget it if you don't. I will slowly think of other ways, or find a craftsman to build them. It will take a year and a half to build them. "
"One hundred cars, two hundred cattle and horses, I don't have any more!" Wang Yun said through gritted teeth.
"Okay! That's enough!" Lu Bu said cheerfully.
Wang Yundao: "I wonder when Marquis Wen will leave? I might as well bring hundreds of civil and military officials to carry out the mission for Marquis Wen and His Royal Highness the Princess!"
Unexpectedly, Lu Bu slapped his thigh and said, "Speaking of practice, I remembered one more thing!
When the princess gets married, she doesn't seem to bring many ladies. I heard that there are many young and beautiful dancers in the palace of the prince. Can you give me... ah no, give the princess some to serve the princess?
It doesn’t have to be too beautiful, just like Diao Chan! "
Wang Yun is finally going to go berserk!
If he hadn't known that he couldn't beat Lu Bu, he would have given him a big slap on the spot!
Yin sneered and said: "Marquis Wen! You are too greedy!
Who doesn’t know that the old thief Dong Zhuo collected 800 beauties from the people in Luoyang and Chang’an and sent them to Meiwu for his own enjoyment?
Haven't you taken all these people as your own? Isn't eight hundred people enough for you to have sexual pleasure? "
Lu Bu was not angry, but said with a smile: "Wang Situ, don't worry! Those women are from the common people and are very vulgar. How can they serve the princess?"
But these singers and dancers in your house are not only good-looking, but also good at serving others. Are they suitable to be maids to the princess?
I'm talking about Wang Situ, but I'm not talking about you. You are so old, why do you still have so many beauties at home?
Do you still want to use a honey trap to plot against others? "
Wang Yun couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when he heard Lu Bu talk about how he wanted to use beauty to plot against him.
"Ahem, I wonder how many women Marquis Wen needs?"
Lu Bu held out a finger and said, "Just a hundred will do! Hey, I want a virgin!"
Wang Yun gritted his teeth and said: "Five days! Give me five days, and I will prepare the carriages, horses and women for you!"
Lu Bu chuckled: "I will leave Chang'an on time in six days!"
He really doesn't want this or that just for his own temporary pleasure.
I just feel that after the city of Chang'an was destroyed, everyone in Wang Yun's family was killed. Rather than benefiting Guo Si and others from Wang Yun's property, it would be better to let him take it away!
As for those singers and dancers, following him is much better than following two players like Guo Si and Li Jue who can’t grow a rabbit’s tail!
To Wang Yun's relief, Lu Bu actually kept his word this time!
Early on the morning of the sixth day, Lu Bu, his family, and a huge convoy finally embarked on the journey eastward!
Lu Bu was not in a hurry and headed east slowly and leisurely.
However, Lu Bu did not go to Luoyang, but went northeast to Benhedong County first.
On the one hand, he wanted to avoid Li Jue who was entrenched in Luoyang, and on the other hand, he wanted to see his fellow countryman Zhang Yang.
After traveling for several days, we arrived outside Hedong City. Wang Yi, the governor of Hedong, had already received the news and personally led his people to greet him outside the city.
Seeing Lu Bu coming to welcome him, he dismounted his horse and saluted, saying: "Wang Yi, the prefect of Hedong County, has met the Prince Consort, and I would like to extend my sincere invitation to Your Royal Highness Princess Jin'an."
Lu Bu bowed his hands and returned the greeting: "Prefect Wang, I have admired your name for a long time. I have long heard that you are a capable minister who loves the people like a son. When I see you today, you are indeed extraordinary!"
This is not Lu Bu's deliberate flattery. Along the way, Lu Bu would also inquire about some local customs, topography, allusions and interesting stories.
Of course, we will also focus on asking about local people's livelihood, who their parents are, what their character is like, etc.
This Wang Yi was indeed deeply loved by the officials and people in Hedong, and he was a good official who loved the people.
He is going to do something big. What is needed most to do something big? Of course it’s money and talent!
Lu Bu must seize every opportunity to recruit talents and expand his circle of friends!
Who knows who will be available to him in the future? Who can help him at this critical moment?
Multiple friends, multiple paths!
"Marquis Wen is too polite, I don't dare to accept it!" Wang Yi said hurriedly.
Although he had heard a little bit about Lu Bu's murder of Dong Zhuo in Chang'an City, Wang Yi still had the same impression of Lu Bu as most people: a brave, short-sighted, and profit-seeking warrior.
Who would have thought that today he would be such a polite person?
However, Wang Yi did not want to curry favor with Lu Bu, and only said: "The lower official has packed up the post house in the city and prepared some simple meals for the prince consort and the princess to take care of themselves. Please come into the city!"
Lu Bu chuckled and said, "Thank you so much, Governor Wang! It's just that you, being both the Prince Consort and Marquis Wen, seem a bit too different!
To be honest, when I met Governor Wang, I felt like old friends at first sight!
If Wang Taishou thinks highly of Lu Bu, why not just call me "Fengxian"? "
"This...then I'm brave! Brother Feng, please come to the city!"
Lu Bu readily agreed and asked Zhang Liao to station 10,000 people outside the city. Gao Shun led the 800 troops to escort Princess Wannian and other female family members into the city.
