Over in Luoyang, reports of Sun Yu's successes were reported frequently, and the civil and military officials in the court were filled with pride.
Everyone thought that the eighteen princes were nothing more than that, and there was no news of victory until these two days.
Everyone started to panic.
Liu Bian was also worried, fearing that rebels would break into the pass and make Dong Zhuo's mistake again.
Busy people went to find out what was going on at the front.
The informant reported that the thieves in Guandong were very powerful, and the prime minister had to avoid their sharp edges.
As soon as this word came back, the civil and military officials in the court were immediately panicked.
But the veterans headed by Wang Yun were secretly happy, thinking that it would not be long before Benchu Mengde and the others could kill Sun Yu.
Liu Bian was extremely anxious and immediately drafted an imperial edict, which was roughly as follows:
"Not going out to fight will show that the enemy is weak. I hope my father-in-law will consider this."
After many days of study and growth, Liu Bian gradually mastered some imperial speech skills.
This sentence is quite striking.
After Liu Bian drafted the imperial edict, he ordered Xiaohuangmen to rush to Hulao Pass day and night.
Looking at the small yellow door in the distance, a noble girl with fair complexion and sword-like eyebrows stood on the wall, with a bit of worry in her beautiful eyes.
"Princess, it's windy outside, so you'd better rest in the palace."
A palace maid came to Princess Wannian carrying a fur coat.
"It doesn't matter."
The princess just waved her hand.
"The prince-in-law has a bright future and is a man of good fortune. He will be fine."
The palace maid seemed to understand her master's thoughts and comforted her softly.
Wannian couldn't help but smile and said sweetly:
"Xiaodie, why don't I remember that the prime minister is already the consort?"
As he said that, he reached out to pinch her cheek.
"Hey~" Xiaodie seemed to be running away, "Even if the emperor gives the order, the princess has always put the royal family first and will never refuse."
"Mr. Kuang is a noble member of the royal family, and the Prime Minister is a dragon and a phoenix among men. The two of you are a match made in heaven."
The princess no longer argued, but looked towards the direction of Hulao Pass with a long look.
"May you win~"
The princess clasped her palms together and prayed silently.
Over there, Sun Yu also received the imperial edict from the little emperor. After reading it, he couldn't help laughing.
He held it up in his hand and said to everyone:
"The little emperor seems to have grown up."
Guo Jia touched his chin and analyzed:
"The emperor wants us to fight urgently now, but we cannot take it easily, causing the world to underestimate the rebels outside the pass."
"If you can send a general out to challenge——"
Before he finished speaking, a servant suddenly came to report.
"Prime Minister, Marquis Wen is asking for an audience outside the door!"
Sun Yu and Guo Jia looked at each other and smiled. It was true that when they fell asleep, someone would give them pillows.
"Invite him in!"
"Here."
Not long after, Lu Bu strode in with a painted halberd in his hand and a bow and arrow hanging from his waist.
"Prime Minister! We were ordered by the imperial court to repel the rebels outside the pass, but the Prime Minister has been standing still and refused to take the initiative to attack."
"Doesn't it mean that the rebels outside the customs will look down upon us?"
Sun Yu suppressed the laughter in his heart and pretended to be embarrassed and sighed:
"Then I wonder what Marquis Wen has to say?"
Lu Bu raised the corners of his mouth slightly and took out an imperial edict from his arms.
"According to the emperor's decree! I am willing to lead the troops out of the border to fight against the thieves and behead them all to repay the emperor's kindness!"
I didn’t expect that this little emperor’s imperial edicts were sold wholesale~
This silly boy Lu Bu must have thought that his imperial edict was unique, and the little emperor deliberately avoided Sun Yu to come to him.
Little did they know that Liu Bian was hedging his bets.
"That's good. The truth is that I'm plundering the formation for Marquis Wen in Guan Guan."
"Waiting for the victorious return of Marquis Wen!"
Lu Bu was overjoyed and was about to leave, when he suddenly remembered something.
Turning around, he said:
"Prime Minister, Lv is a rough man who always talks ugly words."
"If this battle is won, it will be due to Lu."
Sun Yu's eyebrows curved and his smile grew stronger.
"If we really defeat the enemy, it will all be the result of Marquis Wen."
"Sun will never take credit!"
Lu Bu was overjoyed and turned to leave.
He took off his clothes, mounted his horse, and led his eight capable generals to the battle.
"Marquis Wen, you need to be more careful in this battle."
"Even the prime minister does not dare to use troops easily. This shows that the strength of the princes cannot be underestimated."
Hou Cheng said with a worried look.
When Lu Bu heard this, he sneered and said:
"You are worrying too much. Among the princes outside the pass, the only one who is strong is Sun Wentai. He was killed by Sun Yu the day before yesterday."
"It can be seen that it is nothing more than this, and the other princes are even less worth mentioning."
The sky had just dawned, and a ray of golden sunlight shone on him, making him even more majestic and taller.
"A man will become famous today!"
"Now, it's my turn, Lu Bu, to dominate the world!"
News of Lu Bu's battle quickly spread back to the Allies.
After seeing the challenge for many days, the Allied forces were finally willing to fight, and they were all in high spirits.
When they heard that the one who was going to fight was Lu Bu, everyone fell into another discussion.
"Lü Bu was originally an old subordinate of Ding Jianyang. He is brave and good at fighting."
"But I heard that he was not on good terms with the current Sun thief, and they had a quarrel the day before yesterday when they were suppressing the rebellion in Xiliang."
"According to the person involved, the two fought to a draw."
"Now Lu Bu must be jealous after seeing Sun Yu repeatedly perform extraordinary feats, so he took the initiative to invite Ying to fight."
Yuan Shao looked at the princes and said this.
He had a warm and confident smile on his face, and was very personable.
The style of the family members is unmistakable.
Cao Cao was the first to speak:
"Since we formed the alliance, we have suffered many setbacks. The morale of the sergeants is low, and the people's hearts are at home. We urgently need a victory to boost morale."
"Lü Bu is as brave as Sun Yu, but he is brave but has no plans. If he can use a little trick, he will definitely be able to defeat him."
Everyone nodded.
Kong Rong patted his chest and said, "I suggest that we send a strong general from each prince to surround and hunt down that Lu Bu."
"Isn't he said to be invincible? Let's make him walk around without food!"
When they heard that Lu Bu was not as brave as Sun Yu, everyone paid special attention to him.
The situation lost with Sun Yu is bound to be regained with Lu Bu.
"Excellent, excellent, excellent. Although Lu Bu is invincible in the world, doesn't Yan Liangwen Chou, the leader of Yuan Alliance, also claim to be invincible in the world? Otherwise, why would Sun Yu cower and not dare to fight?"
"Each of us will send out a strong man to hunt together..."
Soon, everyone hit it off.
They all began to think about which general under their command would be better to dispatch.
…
Lu Bu sat down on his red rabbit horse, carrying Fang Tian's painted halberd, wearing a Xichuan flower robe, and a purple gold crown with hair tied on his head.
The red robe like fire behind her danced wildly in the breeze.
There was a roaring sound.
The horses are magnificent and the people are spirited.
The spring breeze is proud of the horse's hoof disease. This sentence is suitable to describe Lu Bu's mental outlook at this moment.
Since Sun Yu gained power, he has been suppressed by Sun Yu.
When Xiliang suppressed the rebellion, he even punched him and made him cry.
Fortunately, no one saw it at the time, otherwise it would be difficult to hide the shame and anger even if we found a hole in the ground.
If he defeated Yan Liang Wen Chou today, who Sun Yu did not dare to fight against, he would definitely be able to overpower him!
