Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu
Chapter 529: Assassin
Compared with the children of aristocratic families, the students of Jinyang Academy are grateful to Lu Bu. It was Lu Bu who gave them everything in front of them. No one is sure that after they serve as officials, they can still be as pure as those in the academy in the face of interests. , people will change.
There are too few aristocratic families who can abide by the law. They are accustomed to being aloof and thinking about problems in the way of superiors. This is why all the aristocratic families in the world feel oppressed by Bingzhou.
"Can we find out what happened to the Sima family?" Lu Bu asked.
"The Sima family in Wen County is quite famous. The Sima family is in Xiaojing. The Sima family can be considered a famous family. One of his ancestors was Sima Yan, who followed Xiang Yu to destroy the Qin Dynasty. Because of his meritorious service, he was named the King of Yin and established his capital in Hanoi. The head of the family, Sima Fang, successively served as the order of Luoyang and Jing Zhaoyin. Sima Fang's father, Sima Jun, once served as the prefect of Yingchuan. His ancestor Sima Jun served as the general who conquered the west during the reign of Emperor An. "Jia Xudao.
Lu Bu's heart tightened. The Sima family has such a great origin and has a great reputation among the aristocratic families. In terms of influence, the Sima family may not be as good as the Hedong Wei family, but the Sima family's heritage cannot be underestimated. Such a family, Will you be willing to help yourself?
As for Sima Yi's ambition, it was just because the power in the emperor's hands was greatly weakened. Otherwise, how would Sima Yi's descendants dare to abolish the throne without authorization?
"Could it be that my lord wants to persuade the Sima family to join Bingzhou?" Jia Xu asked.
Lu Bu nodded, "The Sima family has a great reputation in Hanoi. If they can take refuge with me, it will be of great help to govern Hanoi." He did not mention Sima Yi's matter. After all, it was too absurd. The dignified Marquis of Jin did it for a young man. And when I went to Wen County, no one would believe me if I told him.
As soon as the group entered Wen County, Lu Bu received bad news. After the Bingzhou Army captured Hanoi, the Sima family moved out of Hanoi, and their whereabouts are unknown.
"Could it be that the Sima family is avoiding me?" Questions arose in Lu Bu's mind.
Jia Xu said: "Perhaps because of the civil war in Hanoi, the Jizhou army attacked Hanoi and the Sima family moved to another place. Now that Hanoi is stable, maybe the Sima family will return soon."
Seeing this, Lu Bu could only give up. It seemed that his relationship with the literati was indeed not very good. He was ridiculed at Shuijing Villa. He came to Wen County with sincerity, but he could only return disappointed.
It was getting late. Lu Bu and others were looking for a good place to stay in the city, preparing to return to Bingzhou the next day. There were also frequent battles in Bingzhou this year. More than 10,000 soldiers died on the battlefield. Although there were locusts to replenish food and grass, it was already winter. , the locusts dispersed, Bingzhou still had to bear the expenses of 100,000 refugees, and many things needed to be dealt with.
"After my lord entered the city, there was a man who followed him secretly. Judging from my subordinates, this man is definitely a master." Zhao Shu said in a low voice. Ever since Lu Bu was assassinated outside Xiangyang City that day, the Flying Eagle soldiers have been extra vigilant. What happened that day also caused great loss to the Flying Eagle soldiers.
When Lu Bu traveled, he had only a dozen guards on the surface, but secretly he was protected by dozens of flying eagle soldiers.
"Oh, it seems that I will have guests tonight." Lu Bu said with a smile. Lu Bu was also extremely cautious about the assassins outside Xiangyang City. Those assassins cooperated closely, and the power of the crossbow arrows was not ordinary. Being able to compare and be good at using long swords, Lu Bu also suspected that these assassins were from the Jianghu. However, with Bingzhou's ability, after searching for so long, there was no news. Those men in black seemed to have disappeared after the assassination that day. .
This also made Lu Bu wary. Although his strength was high, there was no weak opponent among the assassins.
Lu Bu did not alert Dian Wei and others, but he wanted to see who was following him secretly.
Late at night, the window moved slightly, then slowly opened, and a black shadow fell lightly into the room. In his hand was a long sword with cold light. Under the dim moonlight, the figure was gradually lengthened.
Tiptoeing to the bed, the long sword in his hand suddenly thrust forward. There was no feeling of the sword piercing his body. The visitor's heart tightened and he quickly retreated. However, at this time, a long sword appeared on his neck.
On the other side, he struck hard with his palm, and the man slowly fell to the ground.
"Come here." Lu Bu shouted softly, and Dian Wei burst in holding a double halberd.
Dian Wei looked ashamed when he saw the man in black lying on the ground. He was the commander of Lu Bu's bodyguard. The assassin sneaked into the room quietly but was not found.
"Lord, this subordinate has neglected his duty." Dian Wei said, cupping his fists.
"This man is good at assassination, and his martial arts are not weak. He has no problem evading his personal guards. Please order someone to invite the general and division." Lu Bu said.
Within a moment, Jia Xu hurried over under the leadership of a personal guard. When he saw the man in black on the ground, his eyes tightened. There was no news about the assassin outside Xiangyang City, but unexpectedly he was there.
Wen County met an assassin and was able to sneak into Lu Bu's room quietly. This person also had certain abilities.
"Awei, use cold water to wake this man up." Lu Bu said. He was very curious about the assassin outside Xiangyang City that day. He went to Wen County and found no one from the Sima family. If he could find the person who assassinated that day, he would be very curious.
It is also a big gain. These assassins are highly skilled in martial arts. If they cause chaos in Bingzhou, it will be difficult for ordinary soldiers to stop them. Even Fei Ying suffered a lot at the hands of the assassins.
The coolness made the assassin wake up leisurely. After adapting to the light in the room, he knew that he had fallen into Lu Bu's hands, so he simply looked elsewhere.
"Why are you here late at night?" Lu Bu asked in a low voice.
Seeing that the assassin remained silent, Dian Wei stepped forward and punched him. The assassin took three steps back before he stopped and glared at Dian Wei.
Dian Wei also looked at the assassin in surprise. He had used five points of strength in the punch just now. An ordinary person would have collapsed on the ground after receiving a punch. However, the assassin in front of him just grunted and stepped back for three seconds.
Steps, it can be seen that he is also a person with martial arts skills.
"How dare you be so presumptuous in front of the Marquis of Jin?" Dian Wei raised his two halberds horizontally.
"General Dian, I will leave it to you after I have finished asking my questions." Lu Bu said: "With such skill, I don't think he is an unknown person. Since he has done such a low-level thing, why don't he dare to reveal his name."
The assassin snorted coldly: "What are you doing? The Marquis of Jin is cruel, but all chivalrous men will kill him. Today's defeat is due to my lack of ability. Someone will definitely avenge me in the future."
"Cruel?" Lu Bu sneered and said, "Tell me what kind of cruel things I have done, and even let a knight like you take action."
"For your own selfish interests, you killed countless virtuous people in Bingzhou. You imprisoned Zhang Yang, the former shepherd of Bingzhou, in Jinyang. You secretly colluded with the remnants of the Yellow Turbans and caused trouble in Jizhou. No matter what you did, it was enough to make you die hundreds of times.
