On the evening of August 24th, when Ding Yuan returned to the military camp from Luoyang City to visit Lu Bu, Lu Bu pretended to wake up suddenly: "Entertainment Father, what's wrong with the child?" Lu Bu called his adoptive father, but his heart was full of murderous aura. After getting rid of Ding Yuan, he would not let anyone be his adoptive father, but he would be someone else's adoptive father.

When Ding Yuan saw that Lu Bu had woken up, he was shocked, but immediately pretended to be kind and kind: "My son Fengxian, you woke up, it's great! Two days ago, you burned Mengjin, which was probably angered by the sky and struck by lightning. Your red horse was struck to death on the spot, but you were still sleeping. All the generals thought you would never wake up, but they woke up after three days. It's God's blessing." Lu Bu thought to himself, it was your old man Ding Yuan who wanted to die, but he used the generals as a shield. Such a small act, no wonder the soldiers of Bingzhou were convinced by this old man.

Lu Bu felt more and more disgusted with the old man in front of him who seemed to be full of righteousness, but his face was smiling: "So that's it, it's all thanks to the blessing of his foster father."

Ding Yuan turned his head and said to Qin Yi, "Qin Yi, call on all the generals to come."

After a while, Gao Shun, Wei Xu, Song Xian, Cheng Lian and other generals all came to Lu Bu's camp happily. Lu Bu glanced at Hao Meng and found that this guy had a happy face, and he was so fucking good at pretending.

With Qin Yi's support, Lu Bu slowly sat up from the bed, put on his battle robe, and then slowly got off from the bed. When his feet stepped on the ground, Lu Bu found that his body had recovered and even stronger. He seemed to have endless strength in his body. After using a little force, deep footprints appeared on the hard ground he walked past.

Lu Bu bowed deeply to the generals: "It is only after all the brothers' care that Bu is safe and sound. Bu thanked me here."

The generals also quickly returned the gifts.

Lu Bu straightened his back and found that he was really tall, afraid he was nine feet away. No wonder the book said that he had a very big figure (which means growing and big). With such a body and a body of divine power, no wonder that the Red Rabbit Horse needed to ride to exert all his combat power, and ordinary horses could not afford it.

Lu Bu stood in front of Ding Yuan, a head higher than his head. He had to lower his head and asked Ding Yuan: "Entertainment Father, have there been any abnormal movements in Luoyang City during these three days? I wonder what the fire played?"

Ding Yuan was a little confused. Although Lu Bu was well-versed in literature and mosaic, he had always been indifferent to political affairs. He would do whatever he asked him to do, and never asked why, why he was so concerned about the situation in Luoyang City this time.

Although he was confused, he also understood that Lu Bu's question needed to be answered, because the Bingzhou generals didn't know why He Jin asked them to set fire to Mengjin: "Our fire was not in vain. The traitors were frightened. They cried and begged the Empress Dowager, saying that they were willing to give up their power and just wanted to bypass their lives. The Empress Dowager just ordered the General to enter the palace tomorrow morning to discuss. When the General entered the palace, he would be able to capture the traitors without bloodshed, and the world would be peaceful from then on."

When Lu Bu heard that He Jin was about to enter the palace, he knew that the curtain of the Three Kingdoms era was slowly opening.

This is destined to be his era.

Lu Bu recalled history, thought a little in his mind, and said to Ding Yuan: "Enjoyed Father, since the general's plan to lead foreign troops into the capital to kill the traitors has been known by the traitors, the edict issued by the empress dowager in the palace is also very suspicious. How do you know if the traitors are eager to jump over the wall and take the opportunity to kill the traitors?"

Ding Yuan was stunned. He wanted to rely on He Jin to climb to the high position of the third duke, but he didn't want He Jin to die so early. He suddenly said: "There is some truth to this statement in this way. I was promoted to the governor of Bingzhou, the cavalry commander, and then to the commander of Jinwu. It all depends on the general's support. When the general is in trouble, how can I stand by and watch? For my son, what should I do?"

It turned out that Ding Yuan had been transferred from the Governor of Bingzhou to the Governor of Jinwu. The Governor of Jinwu was responsible for the imperial guards of the Dianshi and defending the security of the capital city. It was equivalent to the commander of the later capital garrison. With this title, many things were easy to deal with. Lu Bu was secretly happy, but pretended to be righteous and arrogant: "Entertainly the general has responded to the imperial edict, then the adoptive father must immediately bring elite troops into the city and go to protect the general in case of an accident."

Ding Yuan said helplessly: "Sili Captain Yuan Shao has selected five hundred elite soldiers and asked the general Yuan Shu of the Tiger Ben to lead him to protect the general. Besides, without the general's military order, I dare not lead the troops into the city casually."

Lu Bu despised Ding Yuan very much. The old boy was ambitious but also a brave man. He lowered his voice and intimidated: "Although Yuan Shu was the general of the Hu Ben and commanded the Hu Ben soldiers, he could only guard the enemy and could not enter the palace. The general entered the room alone. If he was killed by a traitor, no one could match the Yuan family, and Yuan Shao's uncle and nephew would be in charge of the government. The adoptive father had never had any friendship with the Yuan family, and the adoptive father had not made any contribution to killing the traitor. If Yuan Shao impeached his adoptive father on the grounds of burning Mengjin, how would he resist him?"

When Lu Bu saw a cold sweat on Ding Yuan's head, he knew that Ding Yuan, a guy from a poor family who was promoted by rough martial arts (Note 1), was very afraid of the children of aristocratic families like Yuan Shao. Since the coercion was completed, he began to tempt: "Since the adoptive father was responsible for the imperial guards of the Diansi and defending the capital and the security of the palace, he had the power to lead troops into the city. The Bingzhou army could wait for an opportunity to approach the palace. If there was any change in the palace, we could also quickly adapt to the situation. How could the thousands of new Xiyuan troops under the command of the adopted father, Yuan Shao and others be worth the eight thousand iron cavalry of our Bingzhou? At that time, the adoptive father destroyed the treacherous officials and assisted the young emperor to ascend the throne, and made such a great contribution. It would be not difficult to be ranked among the three dukes, and what's wrong with being a general?!"

Ding Yuan asked suspiciously: "What if He Jin was not harmed by a traitor?"

Lu Bu laughed and said, "Entertainment Father, you are the one who holds the Golden Me, but have you forgotten one of your important responsibilities?"

Ding Yuan frowned and asked, "What responsibilities?"

Lu Bu pointed to Luoyang City in the distance: "Zheng Jinwu has to inspect the palace three times a month to prevent and stop water and fire disasters outside the palace and other extraordinary accidents. This time, the traitorous official wanted to plot against the general, which was a very accident. Even if He Jin had nothing to do, we would lead troops there, and the general would also think of our loyal rescue. Not only was he innocent, but he was a meritorious."

Speaking of this, Lu Bu remembered another incident: "Can you know that in addition to summoning Dong Zhuo from Xiliang to Beijing, why did the general also recruit his adopted father to command Bingzhou troops into Beijing?"

Seeing Ding Yuan shook his head and looked confused, Lu Bu explained: "General He is a butcher, a poor commoner. He valued Yuan Shao and other aristocratic families to win over the aristocratic families and had no choice but to do so. Now Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Chunyu Qiong and others have taken charge of most of the troops of the Eight Army in Xiyuan, and they are already too big to lose. Dong Zhuo, the Xiliang Dong who was recommended by Yuan Shao to enter the capital, was the same clan as the Empress Dowager Dong who was killed by He Jin. He Jin was confused by Yuan Shao for a while. Now it was too late to wake up and regret it, so he temporarily summoned his adopted father's army to Luoyang to compete with the Yuan party." In fact, He Jin believed Yuan Shao's words and summoned Dong Zhuo in front and Ding Yuan was later. On the one hand, because Dong Zhuo had to see the situation in the capital clearly, he did not move his troops to Mianchi, Hongnong County. Ding Yuan came from Bingzhou to Luoyang, so Ding Yuan arrived first.

Lu Bu felt very sad when he knew that Ding Yuan was treated as a pawn, so he continued to add fuel to the fire: "When Dong Zhuo commanded the 100,000 troops of Xiliang, if he had not had wolf ambitions, why would he remain in Hongnong Mianchi? When Dong Zhuo's army entered Luoyang, the 100,000 troops were influential. Our 8,000 soldiers in Bingzhou could not match it. Dong Zhuo's least divided the government affairs with Yuan Shao, and most of them monopolized the power himself. In order to control the court, Dong Zhuo would definitely use his trusted generals to occupy the important position of Jinwu. Now, in order to win over Dong Zhuo, He Jin, who has eliminated his adopted father's governor, appointed Dong Zhuo as the governor of Bingzhou. Dong Zhuo has already stationed his son-in-law Niufu to guard Hedong County. At that time, his adoptive father could not compete with Yuan Shao and Dong Zhuo in Luoyang, and he could not return to Bingzhou. The world is so big that he would no longer have a foothold in his adoptive father!"

Ding Yuan had never thought so much. After being pointed out by Lu Bu, he was shocked and frightened. He broke out in cold sweat and his face was extremely pale: "Then let me see, what should I do now?"

All the generals were also frightened by Lu Bu's words and bowed: "Please give General Lu a guide to the confusion!"
