In Shouchun City.
Yuan Shu was a little anxious, calculating in his mind that Qiao Rui's troops should have arrived at Changyi. He didn't know how the offensive would be, but they had successfully captured Changyi.
Feng Fangnu walked in and saw Yuan Shu looking solemn and lost in thought, so she coughed and asked, "Why are you sighing so much?"
When Yuan Shu saw his charming concubine coming in, he smiled and patted the cushion beside him for her to sit down, saying, "I'm just worried about the military."
Yuan Shu was in his forties, and he looked older due to his long-term addiction to wine and sex. Later, he vomited blood and died a few years after becoming emperor. Cao Cao once called Yuan Shu "the withered bones in the grave."
However, Feng Fangnu was in her prime, gentle and graceful, with a natural beauty.
According to unofficial records, after Yuan Shu took Feng Fangnu as his concubine, he loved her so much that he neglected his other concubines, making Feng Fangnu jealous.
When Feng Fangnu became pregnant, she was even more afraid that she would be more favored, so they joined forces to hang her body and hang her body on the beam. People said that Feng Fangnu committed suicide out of resentment.
While he was talking, a guard walked in quickly and bowed down and said: "My lord, there is an urgent military situation!"
"Oh!" Yuan Shu was not angry at being disturbed.
Dare to go directly into the hall to see him without informing him, which is enough to show that the military situation is urgent.
"But is there any news from General Qiao?" Yuan Shu asked.
The guard said: "No! Someone came from outside the city to report that Lu Bu personally led a team of about two thousand people and was heading towards Shouchun quickly!"
"ah!"
Yuan Shu couldn't help but be shocked: What is Lu Bu here for? Could it be that Pengcheng was lost and he had no choice but to seek refuge with him?
Now there are only 5,000 defenders in Shouchun. No matter what the purpose of Lu Bu's coming is, we must be on guard!
Yin hurriedly ordered: "Beat the drums, gather the troops, close the four gates, and defend the city! Quick! Get my armor!"
After putting on his armor, Yuan Shu stood on the city wall with a majestic sword hilt in his hand. Sure enough, he saw a group of people walking towards Shouchun City in the distance. A huge military flag in the group was clearly embroidered with the word "LV" fluttering in the wind.
Even closer, Lu Bu could already be seen sitting upright on Chitu in front of the team.
"Who is coming? Stop quickly, or we will release arrows!" Yu She, the brave general, shouted.
"I am Lu Bu! Is that Yuan Shu on the city?" Lu Bu shouted.
After Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang, in order to win over Yuan Shu, a man with a distinguished family background, he wanted to make Yuan Shu his general.
Yuan Shu refused to comply and fled Luoyang for refuge in Nanyang out of fear of disaster. At that time, Lu Bu had not recognized Dong Zhuo as his adoptive father.
Later, the eighteen princes attacked Dong Zhuo. Although Yuan Shu also participated, the leader Yuan Shao asked his younger brother Yuan Shu to take care of the grain and grass in the rear, so he never met Lu Bu.
This is the first time the two have met.
When Yuan Shu heard Lu Bu calling out his name, he could no longer remain silent, so he walked to the top of the wall, stuck his head out from behind the shield and asked:
"Lu Bu! Since you and I want to reconcile, why did you suddenly send troops to attack me, Shouchun, without declaring war?"
Lu Bu chuckled: "Yuan Shu, what are you talking about? Why do you ask me to beat you Shouchun?
Have you forgotten that you have betrothed your daughter to me?
I happily agreed, but to my surprise, nothing happened!
Everyone in the world knows that I am impatient. I couldn't wait for you to send my daughter off, so I had to come to pick her up!
Yuan Shu! I call you foster father... father-in-law, do you dare to agree? "
Yuan Shu really didn’t dare to agree!
He just said: "You said you are here to pick up your bride, why are you coming here with heavy soldiers in helmets and armor!"
Lu Bu said: "It is necessary! Aren't I responsible for the safety of my beloved concubine? What if we encounter another yellow scarf thief along the way, or are kidnapped by Cao Cao's men?"
When Yuan Shu heard this, he couldn't help but became furious and cursed: "Lü Bu! You and Cao Cao teamed up to trick me and arrest my son. You..."
Lu Bu laughed ferociously: "Stop farting! You said I joined forces with Cao Cao, do you have any evidence?
Now I have come all the way to Shouchun to pick up my bride, but I have given you enough face! Open the door quickly! Are you going to go back on your word and break your promise? "
In front of so many people, Yuan Shu would definitely not admit that he didn't mean what he said.
After pondering for a moment, he said: "Lu Bu! You ask your soldiers to retreat ten miles to camp, and you stay alone. I will open the city gate and let you in!"
Lu Bu chuckled: "If I enter the city alone, you won't plot against me, right? You won't let your men shoot me into a hedgehog with arrows, right? You won't let your daughter turn into a young widow, right?"
Yuan Shu sneered and said: "Hmph, judge a gentleman with a villain's heart! Aren't you the number one hero in the world? Don't you even have the courage to do so?"
Naturally, Lu Bu would not be offended by such a low-level provocation, and said with a smile:
"Yuan Shu, I'm here to welcome my bride so sincerely, so you won't let my wedding team enter the city? Are you still guarding me like a thief?
I thought you were a hero, but you turned out to be a coward!
Otherwise, you can pack up your daughter and the dowry for me! "
"Okay, just wait!" Yuan Shu naturally refused to send his daughter away.
But Lu Bu said: "Yuan Shu, I heard that you have that thing called the Imperial Seal? It's useless for you to keep it. You might as well give it to me as a dowry!"
I made do as a paperweight or something. "
"No!" Yuan Shu was shocked and angry.
When he first attacked Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo was afraid that Luoyang would fall, so he led his men to coerce Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty and move the capital to Chang'an.
Before leaving, he burned, killed, and looted in Luoyang, and finally burned down the Luoyang Palace.
Later, Sun Jian took the lead in entering Luoyang and went to the palace to put out a fire. He fished out the body of a palace maid from a well and accidentally discovered the imperial seal.
Since then, Sun Jian has been following Yuan Shu in battle. While chasing Liu Biao's general Huang Zu, he was ambushed by Huang Zu's men and was eventually killed by an arrow.
As for the Jade Seal of the Kingdom, Sun Jian originally hid it with his wife Wu. Yuan Shu learned about it and took the Jade Seal of the Kingdom from the Wu family.
How did Lu Bu know about this?
Yuan Shu was suspicious above the city, but Dian Wei came over and whispered in Lu Bu's ear: "My lord, everything is ready, please review!"
"okay!"
Lu Bu no longer argued with Yuan Shu, but dismounted and came to the crowd behind him. He saw Xu Chu was tinkering with something with his big butt stuck out, and his huge body completely covered the things behind him.
When I walked around and took a look, I saw that it was a short, thick iron pipe about a foot in diameter that had been placed diagonally on the ground.
Lu Bu came behind the big iron pipe, stretched out his thumb, glanced at it for a while, and nodded: "It's almost done! Give it a try!"
"Yes!" Xu Chu excitedly picked up a paper bag and was about to stuff it into the iron.
"Propellant! Plug in the propellant first!" Lu Bu was so angry that he kicked Xu Chu.
Xu Chu chuckled, changed a smaller medical bag and put it into the iron bucket first, then stuffed it with a piece of felt, and stuffed a slightly larger medical bag on top.
Lu Bu shouted to the city at the top of his lungs: "Yuan Shu, today is my happy day to welcome my bride! I don't want to congratulate you, so I summoned a thunder from the sky to add to the fun! You took it well!"
