As soon as I walked in, I saw two people.
Lu Lingqi was leaning against the beam as she did during the day, and Zhao'er was sobbing while holding a piece of silk cloth.
Seeing Lin Mo coming back, both of their eyes flashed with light.
"Master!"
Zhao'er quickly ran over and ran into Lin Mo's arms, like an abandoned child who had finally found a home. She cried so hard, "I thought I would never see the young master again!"
Lin Mo was a little surprised when he felt that the sweet-tempered Zhao'er had an emotional breakdown for the first time, and then comforted him: "I just went to the Lu Mansion and came back late."
"When I saw the land deed, I knew that the young master was going to Xuchang." Zhao'er was very smart. She picked up the land deed of the Lin Mansion in her hand and gave it back to Lin Mo.
Her eyes were red and swollen, and she had obviously been crying for a long time. She cried aggrievedly: "Didn't you promise Zhao'er that you would take me to Xuchang with you? Why did you leave Zhao'er?"
Lu Lingqi tilted her head and looked at this scene, feeling quite surprised.
In a palace, the head of the house is the head of the house, and the maid is the maid. There are strict boundaries of honor and inferiority.
She was quite curious about how Lin Mo allowed this thirteen- or fourteen-year-old girl to dare to complain about her grievances in front of the family head.
After thinking about it, I didn't think it was strange.
They didn't get along for a long time, but she could still see that Lin Mo usually had no airs and treated the nursing home and the maids like family members.
"Okay, I'm back now, and I won't go to Xuchang again."
Lin Mo caressed her undulating back as if coaxing a little sister.
After a moment, Zhao'er's cheeks turned red as if she had realized what she was doing. She lowered her head and said softly, "I...I'll go cook for the young master."
Then he ran away quickly.
Lin Mo walked up to Lu Lingqi. After knowing the other party's identity, he felt a little unclear and complicated.
This is my future wife. When Lin Mo looked at Lu Lingqi again, he was no longer admiring her before, and there was a bit more joy in his eyes.
This, indeed, is a stunning beauty who cannot be seen when looking down.
"Sir, it's really hard to train horses." Lu Lingqi glanced at him coldly.
"It's not bad. I went to Xiaoguan and it will be too late to come back." Lin Mo chuckled, feeling embarrassed that his clothes had been stripped off.
"Then young master, please rest early. You have to continue practicing your riding skills tomorrow."
Lu Lingqi rolled her eyes at him angrily, and she was a little confused herself. She originally thought that if Lu Bu got back to him, she would get along well with him, but when she saw him back, she felt like she was out of breath.
Especially when he came back and hugged a maid first, it became even more uncomfortable.
"Then... let's have dinner together."
"No need, sir."
Ah this...
Why is it so sour? Lin Mo shrugged.
This tiger girl will also be a dangerous person when she comes home.
The three of them had a very happy dinner that night. Xu Sheng didn't want to go to Xuchang, Zhao'er didn't want to be left behind, and Lin Mo suddenly became a very important figure in Xuzhou City, and there was also a beautiful lady who bowed her head but couldn't see her toes. My fiancée is still worthy of joy.
The night was as cold as water, and Lin Mo, who was not sleepy, was lying on a lazy chair under the osmanthus tree, sorting out Lu Bu's advantages, the resources that could be used, and how to deal with the future war with Cao Cao.
Zhao Yun probably returned to Changshan during this period because of the death of his brother. He did not officially follow Liu Bei until the fifth year of Jian'an, which meant that he still had three years to think of a solution.
However, he had a deep personal relationship with Liu Bei. Liu Bei even shed tears when he was about to leave. To win him over, he had to use some means or sincerity.
Gan Ning, the Jinfan thief, served as a cavalry captain under Huang Zu in Jingzhou. Although he was not highly valued, he still preferred to go out and rob merchant ships. As long as he could see this guy, the possibility of recruiting him was extremely high.
Although Lu Bu has many strong generals under his command, top generals are too scarce. One of these two will fight on land, and the other will fight on water. If they can win over each other, it can be said that they are not afraid of any prince in the world in terms of fighting generals.
After all, no matter how brave my father-in-law is, he will not be beaten by a group of people every time.
In addition, Huang Zhong, Wei Yan and Wenpin were also in Jingzhou, so I don't know how loyal they were to Liu Biao.
Liu Ye seems to be in Huainan during this period. His old father-in-law has just captured Jiujiang. After history has been disrupted, he is not sure of his movements. He is also a wizard, so be careful when going south this time.
Well, as far as counselors are concerned, the only one in the world besides Yingchuan is Jingzhou.
In terms of age, Xu Shu and Pang Tong are also within the scope of wooing.
After a simple calculation, there are still many options to improve overall strength. Lin Mo feels that the future is still worth looking forward to.
In terms of resources, there is no need to wait any longer for the inventions that should be made. Although they are high-end products that ordinary people cannot afford, they are sold to the houses of powerful families and some wealthy businessmen all over the world. The profits are also extremely considerable, but they have to wait until they are imported from Jiujiang. after come back.
The steel filling method will also be put on the agenda. Weapons that are lightweight and can greatly increase the lethality are a sharp weapon to defeat Cao's army, and if they suddenly appear on the battlefield, there is a high probability that they will be blinded.
Lin Mo tried his best to keep his mind active and make sure not to miss anything. After all, these are the capital to revitalize the hegemony and compete with Cao Cao.
After half an hour, he sorted through everything in his mind from civil servants and generals to strategic resources and even external allies.
Is there anything else besides these?
Through the square hole on the wooden window sill of the attic, Lin Mo looked at the bright moon hanging high in the sky and fell into deep thought.
After a moment, his pupils suddenly gathered, and he sat upright from the lazy chair, "Yes, I missed one person! Maybe, he can become the key figure in breaking Cao Cao!"
At this moment, Lin Mo felt that there was a heavy weight on the scale of the war against Cao Cao, "But whether it is really as recorded in history, we still need to confirm with the father-in-law at that time.
I hope it is true. A person who is willing to risk his wealth and life for his father-in-law will definitely become a sword hidden in the dark and easily unsheathed. "
Until there was a sound of gongs outside the house, it was already the middle of the night.
Lin Mo stretched out and prepared to go back to his room to rest. The trip to Jiujiang was a test for his physical strength.
The next morning, Lu Bu arrived at Lin Mansion early in the morning, followed by Lu Lingqi.
She was still wearing the heroic red leather armor, and her long hair was simply tied up. The difference was that this time she also held a Fangtian painted halberd in her hand.
It seems that she is preparing to accompany him on the expedition.
In ancient times, family members were not allowed to go on expeditions. As the commander-in-chief of an army, he had to set an example. Lu Lingqi's outfit made her look more like a military general, which was somewhat reasonable.
"Greetings to Marquis Wen." Zuo Rong said goodbye to Lin Mo tearfully early in the morning. When he saw Lu Bu, he immediately bowed with a smile.
Lu Bu just glanced at him and ignored him.
Lin Mo asked Xu Sheng to accompany him. Now he is still the guardian of the hospital, but soon, this identity will also change.
"Although I dislike this person very much, for your sake, I can let him go. You should have less contact with him in the future." Lu Bu said in a low voice on the way, without hiding the disgust on his face.
"It is human nature for my father-in-law to hate him, but Cao Cao has a saying that I quite admire."
Lin Mo moved his eyes towards Lu Bu and said with a smile: "Make full use of people's talents and make the best use of everything."
"What use can a villain like him be?" Lu Bu frowned.
"It really might be of great help right now."
Lin Mo hesitated for a while and was noncommittal. It was better not to boast before the matter was settled. "Give him some time. If the matter is completed, it will be enough to atone for his sins."
The anger in Lu Bu's eyes dissipated a little, and he nodded silently.
Now that Lin Mo knew his identity, he naturally also understood how to deal with his words and deeds. In this situation, he still came to Zuo Rong. His help should be difficult to replace by others.
Make the best use of people's talents and make the best use of materials...
Lu Bu smiled, but he wanted to see how his son-in-law could use such a despicable villain.
