When he arrived outside the training ground, Lu Bu saw Red Hare tied under a locust tree from afar. Its whole body was as red as the sunset. Although it was only a little over one year old, its limbs were strong and its physique was very tall and strong. Its hooves were almost as big as the mouth of a bamboo tube. It was indeed a rare and good horse.

He walked over in two steps, stroked Red Hare's long and shiny mane with one hand, his eyes full of excitement and joy.

Chi Tu turned his head away in disgust, obviously not liking his touch.

Dong Qing walked over and said, "This horse is very fierce and won't let anyone touch it. I just led it all the way from the city."

Lu Bu turned and bowed to her, "Thank you!"

Guo Si looked at Red Hare with envy, "You really won't let anyone touch it? Let me try, maybe it will let me touch it!"

As he spoke, he reached out to touch Red Hare's head. Red Hare let out a breath of dissatisfaction through his nostrils and moved his front hooves to the side to avoid Guo Si's dirty hands.

"Oh no, you really don't want anyone to touch you, but I'm going to touch you anyway."

Guo Si grabbed Red Hare's mane with his big hand. Red Hare got angry, neighed, and kicked Guo Si with his hoof. Guo Si was not paying attention and was kicked in the thigh. His legs went soft and he fell to the ground, as if he was kneeling to a horse.

Guo Si was furious, "I'm going to kill you, you beast!"

He stood up and raised his sword to kill Red Hare. Lu Bu swung his halberd with one hand to block Guo Si's sword and said coldly, "When beating a dog, you have to look at its owner. Who gave you the guts to touch my horse?!"

"Didn't you see this beast kicking me?" Guo Si shouted.

"Deserve it!"

Lü Bu scorned him, untied the reins, and led Red Hare back. Guo Si refused to give in and tried to argue, but Li Que stopped him, "Are you still looking for a fight? He didn't use any real force during our sparring match just now, but if you provoke him now, it's probably going to be more than just a nosebleed."

Hua Xiong, who was enjoying the fun, gloated from the sidelines, "It didn't hurt."

Guo Si recalled the scene of being beaten, touched his nose which still ached slightly, snorted angrily, and finally did not chase after him at the risk of his life.

Dong Qing glanced at the frustrated Guo Si with a smile, and hurriedly followed Lu Bu.

"Fengxian, the scene where you beat up all the generals just now was really exciting. I have loved martial arts since I was a child. Can you teach me in the future?" Dong Qing looked at Lu Bu with eyes full of admiration, and little hearts popped out of him as if they were free.

"I only know how to fight, not how to teach!" Lu Bu said calmly.

Dong Qing was a little disappointed, and then said, "Then how about I come to watch you train every day?"

"The barracks are full of men, so it's better for you, a girl, not to come."

"It's okay. I often come to the army with my father. Everyone is familiar with me. Besides, I can wear men's clothes..."

Lu Bu stopped and interrupted Dong Qing's chattering in a deep voice, "I already have someone I love, and I will marry her in this life. You don't need to waste your time on me."

If he had not met Amo first, perhaps he would have found a way to marry her even without Dong Qing taking the initiative to show his affection. No one would choose a thorny detour when they can take the smooth road, but he is choosing to take a detour now.

He has already gained insight into the secrets of heaven and possesses extraordinary powers. If he doesn't even have this little confidence and still relies on nepotism, then there's no point in talking about any grand ambitions or hegemony.

It is more interesting to achieve wealth, fame and fortune through hard work!

After Lu Bu finished speaking, he ignored Dong Qing and turned away. Dong Qing was stunned for a moment, then her anger and jealousy burned like crazy. She whipped a blade of grass beside her and screamed, "I insist on you marrying me, no one else will do it!"

She turned over, mounted the horse, whipped the horse's buttocks hard, and galloped towards the city.

"Zhang Mo from Jinyang Juyi Village, right? I'll make sure she doesn't see the sun tomorrow, and see if you insist on marrying her."

Lu Bu didn't take Dong Qing's words to heart at all. If he was determined not to marry, Dong Zhuo would not force him to marry her.

Dong Zhuo is not a fool. What he needs is to make friends, not enemies!

Lu Bu led Red Hare to the training ground, and Li Su and others surrounded him with a gossipy look on their faces.

Li Su looked at the direction where Dong Qing left, "That's the lord's daughter, right? Is she happy with Fengxian?"

Wu Dan helped answer, "She's my aunt's youngest daughter. Judging from her appearance, she must have fallen for Sima."

Li Su smiled and said, "That's good. If Fengxian marries her, his future will be bright. At least he can save ten years of hard work."

Wei Xu curled his lips, "Unless my sister... unless Sima is blind, he won't fall in love with her."

Wu Dan's smile froze when he heard this. "Is Qing'er that bad? In terms of family background, appearance, and figure, she is not worthy of Sima. She may be a bit irritable, but I think she is still very well-behaved in front of Sima."

"That's right. I think that young lady is pretty good. Fengxian, why don't you consider her?" Li Su agreed.

Wei Xu was full of disdain. "What's so good about her? I don't think she can compare to Sima's fiancée in any way. A-Mo is the best woman I've ever seen. She's smart, beautiful, can make paper, can make money, and even dares to recruit people from the mountain..."

"Ah Xu, stop talking!"

Lü Bu interrupted Wei Xu and looked at Wu Dan and the others, "Just go do what you need to do. Why are you talking nonsense like a woman? Are you annoying?!"

A few people laughed and immediately scattered.

Besides, Dong Qing went to complain to Dong Zhuo as soon as he returned home.

"That Lu Bu was so abominable. I gave him a horse out of kindness, but he not only threw me to the ground, but also told me not to go to the military camp again. Daddy, you must help your daughter vent her anger."

Dong Zhuo was not angry when he heard this. Instead, he burst into laughter. "Haha, you will be humiliated one day! It seems that Fengxian is the only one in the world who can control you."

He leaned on the small couch and looked at Dong Qing leisurely, "Tell me, are you attracted to Fengxian, little girl?"

Although Dong Qing was thick-skinned, she still knew how to be shy in front of her elders. Her face flushed and she said in a low voice, "Daddy has seen it all, and he still asks me why!"

Dong Zhuo smiled and said, "Fengxian is indeed a rare good-looking man. He has good looks and martial arts skills. From what I've seen, his character is also upright. My son has good taste!"

"However, from what you said today, he doesn't seem to have any interest in you. If that's the case, I, your father, will force him to marry you, and you won't be able to live comfortably in the future."

Dong Qing said firmly, "My daughter just likes him and won't marry anyone else. As for feelings, we can slowly cultivate them in the future."

Dong Zhuo sat up straight and said with a smile, "Well, since my son likes it so much, I'll go find him and ask him about it someday."

"Father, there is no rush."

Dong Zhuo was puzzled, "Why are you not in a hurry anymore?"

Dong Qing said, "Father, please lend me a few warriors. I want to go to Jinyang and then come back to talk to Lü Bu about the marriage."

Although she had not had much contact with Lu Bu, from these two times, she could tell that this man was extremely arrogant and might not submit under pressure. Her father valued Lu Bu so much that he would not do anything to him for refusing the marriage proposal. She still had to solve the problem of her fiancée first.

"What are you going to Jinyang for?"

Dong Qing explained, "Before Lü Bu came to join his father, he had been staying in Bingzhou. I want to go there and inquire about his past so that my father can get to know him better."

Dong Zhuo frowned. "He's been a fugitive for a long time. How are you going to find out? Besides, my father can arrange for someone to go, so why do you need to go yourself?"

"Father doesn't know that he once stayed in a manor in Jinyang for a while, so I want to go and ask him in person."

"How did you know about this?" Dong Zhuoyue was even more puzzled. Qing'er actually knew something that he didn't even know.

Dong Qing said casually, "He told me himself."

"Then I will send someone to inquire about it. It's better for you, a girl, not to go there."

"No, I will go there myself. If my father doesn't agree, I will go there secretly."

Looking at his daughter who was acting like a scoundrel, Dong Zhuo had no choice but to compromise. "In that case, you can go and talk to your mother yourself. If she agrees, you can go."

"Even though my mother doesn't agree, I still want to go. I have to go. Please give me the person!"

She rubbed against Dong Zhuo, pulled his sleeve and began to act coquettishly, "Daddy, Daddy loves me the most, it's the best, please agree! If you don't agree, I will keep pestering you."

"Okay, okay, go, go, I'll let..." Dong Zhuo's head ached from the nagging. After a moment's thought, he said, "Let Yingwei bring someone to escort you. No matter what the investigation results are, you must return within a month and a half."

"Okay! I will definitely come back!" Dong Qing promised immediately.
