Infinite Streamer

Li Su and Zhang Yang were having a great time fighting in the parade ground. Lu Bu left and went to the Jiuyuan County Government in the ancient city of Machi to handle official business. He found that the various flowers and plants planted by his father Lu Liang in the yard had bloomed colorfully, like a big garden. The silver anemones close to the edge of the rocks were even more beautiful.

The flowers that his father Lu Liang once taught Lu Bu to recognize are still vivid in his mind: peony, aconite, whitehead, caragana, marigold, butterfly grass, loosestrife, cosmos, morning glory, jasmine, sunflower, verbena, snake whip, wild chrysanthemum, petunia, cockscomb, pansy, peony, peony, rudbeckia, golden bell, hibiscus, camellia, iris, carnation, periwinkle, marigold, poppy, violet, rose, orchid, bauhinia, forsythia, rose, azalea, bougainvillea, rose, wisteria, and Astragalus membranaceus. Now their stamens are blooming.

Lü Bu looked at the red, fat and green flowers in front of him, which complemented each other. The scenes of his father Lü Liang teaching him to recognize flowers in previous years all resurfaced in his memory. Tears welled up in the corners of Lü Bu's eyes and flowed down his cheeks. The sky also became overcast at this moment, and fine spring rain fell continuously, as if the sky was crying.

Lu Bu took a jar of wine that his father Lu Liang had placed on the table, gulped it down, and fell into deep mourning for the past. Before he knew it, a long time had passed.

Lu Bu chanted casually:

“Seeing the green and red become thin again!

Picking silver lotus, my sleeves are covered with tears.

The spring rain is dripping,

The ripples of the river flow like wine during the Qingming Festival.

A son wants to support his parents but they are no longer around.

Life is short and bitter!

Infinite stream of light,

Can I start over again?

The cold rain and tears fall in gratitude for the kindness of raising me,

Who will share the wine with me when I drink alone?

Speechless tears flow first,

Why blame the weather?

He drank the blood of the Huns.

Barbarian meat for every meal!"

"What a great man! He will drink the blood of the Huns and eat the meat of the barbarians! General Lu is really courageous!" A clear voice like a silver bell came from behind.

I saw a stunning beauty with a pretty figure, thin earrings and green rings walking towards me slowly and gracefully, like a willow swaying in the wind. When she stopped, she looked quite elegant and unique. Judging from her face, she was probably only thirteen or fourteen years old. Women in ancient times were really precocious.

The stunningly beautiful woman faced Lu Bu, clasped her hands in front of her chest, raised her thumbs and overlapped them, lowered her head, bent her knees, placed her hands on her abdomen, and said, "General Lu, may you be blessed with good health! I am Ren Hongchang, nicknamed Diao Chan. My father, Ren Daoan, is from Shanxi Province. We have been doing business here for decades. We are also a neighbor of your mother, Madam Huang's family. Some time ago, all my family members were killed by the Huns when they invaded the border. I was able to escape because I was visiting relatives and friends in other places. During this visit, I would like to donate all the remaining wealth in my family to General Lu Bu. Please avenge me for this blood feud. I will have no regrets in this life!" After she finished speaking, she knelt down on the ground and bowed to him.

Lu Bu was still hesitant at this time. Could she be the "Diao Chan" in history? Seeing the peerless beauty in front of him prostrating herself on the ground, he hurriedly rushed forward to grab her arm and help her up.

Diao Chan's fair face was like a piece of dyed red cloth at this time. Lu Bu then realized that he was a little reckless. In ancient times, men and women were not allowed to touch each other, and there were strict etiquettes between men and women. He quickly let go of his hand. Diao Chan stood up and was not yet stable. When Lu Bu let go of his hand, Diao Chan immediately lost her strength and fell into Lu Bu's arms in an instant. Lu Bu was afraid that the beauty would fall to the ground and get hurt, so he did not avoid suspicion at this moment and took the opportunity to hug this peerless beauty in his arms.
