Your Majesty, please spare Diao Chan; your yang energy is too strong.

It seemed that Lü Lingqi's words had awakened him.

Lu Bu was completely disoriented for a moment before regaining his senses.

“That’s right, rather than staying here and becoming a laughing stock.”

"It would be better to go back and properly develop our power, and strive to occupy the other six counties of Xuzhou."

"Only in this way can I win back Diao Chan."

"Even to dominate the world."

Lu Bu muttered to himself, his eyes flashing with unparalleled brilliance.

It must be said that although Lü Bu was a bad person.

However, before he got Diaochan, he was a very good lord.

At least after Ding Yuan died.

Despite being a mere clerk, he was able to firmly control the entire Bingzhou army.

This gives us a glimpse into the situation.

Without absolute prestige, it would be absolutely impossible to achieve this.

It even persuaded the other eight generals to willingly defect to him.

But later, after meeting Diao Chan, all his ambitions were silenced in the gentle embrace of love.

Inextricable.

That's why it's become like this now.

Now that he has lost it, he has become even more determined.

Of course, it wasn't that Lü Bu didn't want to take it back, but he knew that he couldn't do so with his current strength.

Therefore, he needs to develop his own strength first.

It's like giving yourself a clear direction for improvement, which motivates you to work harder.

And this is actually what Zhou Heng wanted to see.

Given Lü Bu's previous condition, it was impossible for him to stop Cao Cao and Yuan Shu.

Only in this state is it possible.

After all, only Lü Bu could hold off Cao Cao and Yuan Shu.

Zhou Heng was able to secretly develop.

"The green hills remain unchanged, and the clear waters flow on forever."

"Tell Zhou Heng that one day I will take back everything that belongs to me."

Lu Bu said coldly.

"We withdraw."

After saying this, Fangtian halberd swung, and once again saw Xuzhou City with tears in his eyes as he walked into the distance.

.............

Zhou Heng was naturally unaware of what was happening here.

At this moment, he was sweating profusely.

It has to be said that when you own a luxury car, you should drive it as hard as you can.

Otherwise, it will just be left for someone else to drive.

That was Zhou Heng's idea.

He not only has to drive hard, but he also has to drive standing up.

Have you ever seen a girl standing up and pedaling a machine?

Zhou Heng had seen it before, because he himself was like that.

"A pair of mandarin ducks in the quilt, a pear tree in full bloom overshadowing the crabapple."

"Bad poetry."

"What? Not enough?"

"I meant the nonsensical poem you were talking about."

Diao Chan's face paled.

"What? You said it once isn't enough?"

Diao Chan: "........."

As it turns out, the ancients were right.

Even the most stubborn woman can be won over with a single act.

If so, then two shots.

Continue until the other party submits.

"Damn Zhou Heng, I was just saying those things in anger on the city wall, I never expected him to actually do it..."

Next door, Lu Lingqi, who had just returned to her room, looked both shocked and angry.

Originally, what she said was just to provoke Lü Bu.

So you're telling me you're serious?

Lu Lingqi was numb.

"But this is good too. Without Diao Chan, my father should be able to regain his former wisdom and prowess."

"But... I feel a little sorry for you, young lady."

Lü Lingqi sighed.

She also knew that Diao Chan couldn't be blamed for this.

Beauty is not a crime.

The idea that "beautiful women bring disaster" is merely a shackle imposed on women by incompetent rulers.

Taking the blame

A truly capable person would never indulge in a life of pleasure.

A true man's ambition should be to flow eastward into the Yangtze River and into the sea; why yearn for a gentle land?

All of this can only be blamed on Lü Bu himself.

"However, no matter what, without my concubine, Father should be more motivated to work hard."

Lü Lingqi sighed.

After saying that, she turned over and went to sleep, but the noise around her kept her awake for a long time.

Some of them even started to feel slightly hot.

"Is it really that comfortable?"

Lü Lingqi's eyes were glazed over.

A scene suddenly appeared in my mind involuntarily.

I became the protagonist.

And that man, who was previously blurry, slowly changed into the appearance of Zhou Heng.

It must be said that Mi Zhen was truly a good wife.

She always put Zhou Heng's interests first.

It wasn't just that they came up with such ingenious binding methods.

Even the three cells where prisoners were held were closely connected together.

They were afraid that others wouldn't hear them.

Therefore, at this moment, the person who shared the same thoughts as Lü Lingqi was Madam Gan, who was standing next to her.

"Sister, are you still thinking about Liu Bei?"

Mi Zhen appeared in Madam Gan's room at some unknown time.

Originally, the Mi family had wanted to marry Mi Zhen to Liu Bei.

However, he frequently allowed Mi Zhen to associate with Madam Gan.

Over time, the two began to address each other as sisters.

However, neither of them knew what Liu Bei and the Mi family were thinking.

This is so that if things really work out, the two of them can get along well in the future.

However, because Liu Bei had a reputation for benevolence and righteousness, he couldn't bear to see Lady Gan, who had followed him, go from being his principal wife to a concubine.

The Mi family, being the richest family in Xuzhou, would never allow their younger sister to become a concubine.

Therefore, no action has been taken for a long time.

In the end, Zhou Heng snatched it away.

However, this did not affect the relationship between the two.

Because they were unaware of the thoughts between Liu Bei and the Mi family.

“What are you saying, sister? Ever since Liu Bei said to my face that women are like clothes and brothers are like limbs, I have had no further dealings with him.”

"On the contrary, sister, watching your own man favor another man's woman, doesn't it hurt you?"

Mrs. Gan asked with some curiosity.

"My husband is a man destined for great things, how could he be indulging in a life of pleasure?"

Madam Mi shook her head.

In this era, it was quite normal for men to have multiple wives and concubines.

Moreover, this applies to feudal lords like Zhou Heng.

A person destined for greatness.

In many cases, a man's sense of face is determined by how many wives and concubines he has.

Living in this era, Mi Zhen was also deeply influenced by such ideas.

Of course, I wouldn't be jealous.

For example, Boss Cao had a total of seventeen concubines.

Well, twelve of them are other people's wives.

Not only would she not, but she would also willingly help her own man find someone.

Because in this way, people you know well will at least not threaten your position in the future.

"My sister married into a good family, unlike me..."

Thinking of her fate, Madam Gan couldn't help but sigh.

"Sister, you are in the prime of your life and possess unparalleled beauty, why are you sighing and lamenting?"

"Liu Bei is nothing to me, sister."

“We are like sisters. If you don’t mind, you can help me take care of my husband.”

“My husband is exceptionally talented and ambitious. Isn’t he far superior to Liu Bei, who is middle-aged and no longer capable?”
