Lu Bu: My wife comes from two thousand years later

Yang Chuo was dead, and he himself had become a fugitive. Things had come to this point. For Lu Bu, he didn't care whether others misunderstood him, felt sorry for him, or sympathized with him. He was too lazy to explain.

But this person was Wenyuan. In the dream, when the two of them were in Bingzhou, they drove out the Huns and fought against the Black Mountain together. Wenyuan stayed by his side until he was defeated in Xia Pi.

Lü Bu explained, "That day, I was chasing the Hu people, and he sent his men to ambush me along the way, intending to kill me. If it weren't for... a stroke of luck, I would have already died on the Gale Road. The collusion was alleged by the Hu general himself. Moreover, Jiuyuan had five hundred defenders and countless powerful gentry troops. If it weren't for his interference, how could we have captured it in one night?"

As he spoke, he threw the cloth containing Yang Chuo's confession of his crimes to Zhang Liao.

Zhang Liao had only known the general idea of ​​the matter before, but did not know the specific reason why Jiuyuan fell. But after hearing it now, he quickly figured out the connection.

Looking at Lu Bu's behavior today, he was able to generously spare everyone even after being drugged by them, which shows that he is not a cruel and bloodthirsty person. If it were not for the blood feud, why would he make himself so embarrassed when he was just a good military officer?

Zhang Liao looked at the charges and said, "Since you have evidence, you could have reported it to the court. Why resort to lynching? That way, you wouldn't have to flee to the ends of the earth."

"Report?"

Lü Bu took a look at Zhang Liao's expensive brocade robe and said, "You come from a prominent family, so you should know Yang Chuo's background. How can I fight the Yang family? Just a piece of cloth?"

If he had not dreamed of that life, he might have really taken this charge to Luoyang to file a complaint. But now he knew very well that, not to mention that he had forced Yang Chuo to write this charge, even if the evidence was conclusive, he, a small man with no power, no influence, and no money, could not bring down the Yang family. Even Dong Zhuo, who had military power, authority, and was tyrannical, could do nothing to the aristocratic families in Luoyang.

Zhang Liao choked. Of course, with just a military officer like him, there was no way he could bring down Yang Chuo. The Yang family might even frame Lu Bu for the sake of their reputation. It would be simpler to just kill him directly.

After learning the truth, Zhang Liao admired Lu Bu even more, but at the same time he felt very aggrieved for him.

"Brother, you killed the Hu people and beheaded Yang Chuo, avenging the people of Jiuyuan and ridding the country of traitors. You truly do not deserve this injustice. Although I am only a minor official in Mayi, I will do my best to redress your injustice. I will return to the city and ask the Grand Commander to report the truth to Envoy Zhang."

Zhang Liao's address to Lü Bu had unconsciously changed from "brother" to "brother," and he was delighted to have a younger brother. Lü Bu was in high spirits and stopped him, saying, "I am very pleased that Wenyuan believed my one-sided words. Please don't do that useless work."

"Why is it useless? Isn't Envoy Zhang supposed to exercise supervisory power?"

Lu Bu knew that the Envoy Zhang that Zhang Liao mentioned was Zhang Yi, the current governor of Bingzhou. If this person wanted to seek justice for him, he would have investigated the matter clearly long ago. Why wait until now?

"Once Yang Chuo's accusation of treason is proven, the Yang family's reputation will be completely ruined. How could he possibly let this crime fall on Yang Chuo? Besides, Envoy Zhang and I have no relationship at all. Why would he want to offend the Yang family on my behalf? What good would it do him to find out the truth? This matter is already full of doubts. As the Governor of Bingzhou, he must have known about the suspicious situation long ago. Can you see what he did?"

Hearing this, Zhang Liao's feverish mind suddenly cleared up. He frowned and asked, "What should I do? Will my brother bear this crime for the rest of his life?"

How could it be possible? Although he was impulsive at the time, he was also so confident because he knew that the Han Dynasty would soon be in complete chaos.

In his dream, he killed two lords in a row, and Yang Chuo was just his superior. He had no psychological burden in killing him. He didn't care whether the charge of murder was cleared in the end or not. When he was in power one day, he would have the final say on how this matter would be recorded in history books.

However, before that, he had to let the Yang family not pursue the matter, otherwise he would be unable to move forward. Even if he went to Dong Zhuo, he was afraid that Dong Zhuo would not be able to protect him now.

"Don't worry, Wenyuan. I'll take care of this matter."

Not wanting Zhang Liao to dwell on this matter any further, Lu Bu changed the subject and said, "By the way, if you don't become my enemy today, will you be punished when you return?"

Zhang Liao said, "It's nothing. The magistrate of Mayi County is my cousin. At most, I can just give him a scolding and that's it. Brother is injured, so it's best to leave as soon as possible."

The few people who escaped back must have gone to ask for reinforcements. If his uncle came with troops in person at that time, he could not openly disobey orders.

Lü Bu, still weak and wounded, was not overly cautious. He also didn't want to embarrass Zhang Liao, so he bowed and said, "I'll leave now. I just have something I'd like Wenyuan to inquire about for me."

"Brother, please speak!"

"I have a fellow countryman named Li Su, also known by his courtesy name Zizheng. He went to Jizhou to join the army to suppress the Yellow Turban Rebellion six months ago. Could you help me find out where he went?"

Zhang Liao said, "There were three generals who went to Jizhou to quell the rebellion. If this person hadn't made a name for himself, it would be difficult to track him down. But don't worry, brother. I will do my best to find him for you. If I have any news... where will I go to find you?"

Lu Bu said, "Jinyang is not far from here. I will stay in Jinyang for half a year. If you get any news, come find me there directly. By the way, you can ask Dong Zhuo first."

"Okay!" Zhang Liao nodded and bowed, "Take care on your journey, brother!"

He then reminded her, "The Yang family has secretly issued a bounty for my brother's capture. You must be careful when you arrive in Jinyang."

He glanced at Ah Ling lying on the ground and said, "Don't trust others so easily, especially beautiful women."

Lu Bu's mouth twitched, "I understand. I won't make the same mistake a second time."

It's really like going backwards in life. After experiencing a dream life, I actually fell for such a low-level trick. Although the woman's acting was very realistic, there are still many flaws when you think about it carefully.

The first suspicious thing was the corpse. The corpse pretending to be her father had clearly been dead for a long time. He had already had his suspicions at that time. If he had checked the bodies of other servants, he would have found more flaws. It was really too careless.

The second suspicious thing was that A Ling fell asleep just after lying down for a while that night. At that time, people thought it was because she was too tired during the day, but they didn't expect that both her parents died overnight, and it was impossible for her to fall asleep as soon as she lay down no matter how tired she was.

If his physical condition had not changed, he would have been defeated by a small county magistrate. Being so stupid, how could he deal with the Xiliang generals around Dong Zhuo, let alone Cao Mengde.

Alas, to be honest, he thought about it for so long but still couldn't figure out where he lost to Cao Cao.

…………

In Wang Yun’s residence in Luoyang, the eastern capital, Zhang Mo is also recognizing her brother at this moment.

She had just arrived in Luoyang today, and without even entering Wang Yun's home, she hurried into the palace to meet the emperor. She was left alone to face the three sworn brothers whom she had never met before.

Wang Yun was born in Jinyang, Shanxi. His family was a high-ranking official family. As a refugee, she would not be looked down upon even if she became a servant, let alone the master of the Wang family. She was very self-aware and did not expect them to really treat her as a sister. As long as they did not despise or bully her, she would be satisfied.

After exchanging greetings and waiting for a while, there was still no sound from above. The room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. Her palms were sweating and she thought to herself, "This is our first meeting. Are these three people trying to show me off?"

Zhang Mo kept complaining. There was really no need to show off her power. She was just an adopted daughter. No matter how much she was valued, she could never compare to a biological son. Besides, Wang Yun didn't really value her.

My knees were sore from bending, and just as I was about to stand up without paying attention to etiquette, a deep and magnetic voice suddenly sounded from above.

"Amei? Are you the sister Amo mentioned in father's letter?"

Along with the sound of footsteps, a tall figure appeared before her eyes. A pair of slender white hands reached out and gently lifted her elbow, "Sister, please stand up quickly!"

The man chuckled, "Don't blame me! It's just that my sister is so lovely that I was stunned for a moment. I'm sorry for causing you trouble."

Just as Zhang Mo was about to speak, another childish voice rang out, "Brother, this is not very kind of you. You are stunned by yourself, and you even blame it on my sister for being too pretty."

The man laughed and said, "How dare I? My brother is so happy for such a well-behaved and lovely sister, how dare I blame her? Besides, my sister offered several strategies in Runan to help father suppress the rebellion. I heard everything from the housekeeper, especially the plan to trick the thieves into giving up Yangdi. It was truly brilliant."

You can tell that this big brother really likes her.

Zhang Mo raised her head slightly and looked at her two brothers in front of her. The eldest brother and Wang Yun looked like they were cast from the same mold. Although their facial features were ordinary, their eyes were clear, their postures were upright, and they exuded a sense of righteousness. She felt a sense of familiarity, as if she saw her father when he was young.

"I'm your eldest brother, Wang Gai." Wang Gai pointed at the man in green standing beside him, "This is your second brother, Wang Jing."

Wang Jing was more handsome than Wang Gai, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. He was not yet twenty years old, but he was nearly eight feet tall and was looking at her with a smile.

Zhang Mo greeted again.

Wang Jing smiled and said, "We are a family and there's no need for formalities. My brothers and I have been looking forward to having a younger sister for a long time. However, since our mother passed away, our father has never remarried. We thought there was no hope in this life, but we never expected that our father would go out and bring back a sister who is like a fairy."

He turned around and looked at the third brother, Wang Ding, who was still standing in a daze at the back, and jokingly said, "Third brother, are you jealous that your sister is prettier than you?"

Wang Ding suddenly came back to his senses, took a few steps forward, and looked Zhang Mo up from head to toe, from front to back. He sighed, "I thought I was beautiful enough, but I didn't expect this little sister to be even prettier than me. She's really more beautiful than the fairies in the sky!"

Zhang Mo was also looking at Wang Ding, who was still a teenager with fair skin, strong features, a pair of peach blossom eyes that looked around with affection, and a bit of unrulyness between his eyebrows.

Wang Jing laughed and said, "When did you ever see a fairy in heaven?"

Wang Ding scratched his head and said, "I've seen her in my dreams, but she's definitely not as pretty as my sister."

"Third brother, thank you for your praise."

Zhang Mo smiled shyly and felt completely relaxed. As expected, no matter what era, people look at faces, and a good-looking face can make people feel more favorable.

Wang Ding waved his hands repeatedly, "You are not being too kind, you are not being too kind. I have seen countless beauties, but I have never seen a beauty as stunning as my sister. Although she is still young, I am sure that in three or four years, my sister will definitely be worthy of the title of the most beautiful woman in the world."

Zhang Mo couldn't help but burst out laughing, "How old are you, Third Brother? You've already seen countless beauties?"

Wang Ding said seriously, "I'm not lying to you. Whether it's Jinyang or Luoyang, what young lady have I not seen? There really isn't one as beautiful as my sister."

Wang Ding was a chatterbox, and he said with a smile, "Sister, this is your first time in Luoyang, right? Let me tell you, Luoyang is really fun. I'll take you to Yuehua Pavilion someday, and also..."

Hearing about Yuehua Pavilion, Wang Gai immediately interrupted him: "Don't lead my sister astray. She's been tired from the journey. The important thing is to get her to wash and eat."

"Yes, yes, my sister must be tired. Go and rest first. I will tell you about the interesting things in Luoyang at the family dinner tonight."

Wang Gai turned to Zhang Mo and said, "The room has been prepared in the mansion. Your third brother personally arranged it. Go and rest first, sister. I will send someone to call you when it's time for dinner."

Then he said to the two maids waiting beside him, "Ying'er, Yan'er, quickly take the young lady in to wash and change her clothes."
