Jia Daobao apparently failed to see the depth of Yan Qing's decision, and was unwilling to risk stroking the tiger's whiskers for the broken reasons that were put on the table, so he waved his sleeve without mercy and threw away a whole lot of worthless friendships.

Failing to abduct the helpers with the strongest fighting ability in this area onto the pirate ship, Yan Qing had no choice but to look for another strategy.

However, after Yan Qing synthesized some of Lu Bu's recent strange behavior, he felt that it would be too arduous for him to persuade his stubborn and stubborn lord, who is not quick to play with his bullish temper and loves to play tricks on him by being unreasonable, so the only thing to do is to ask a few more people to shut up and talk to him.

Gao Shun and Zhang Liao, who have always been good friends with him and have a powerful position in the army, and who also have a good voice in front of Lu Bu, are the best candidates.

Yan Qing made up his mind in the twinkling of an eye, and decided to go to the military camp first, looking for Gao Shun, who was training the soldiers, but as a result, just a few steps out, he was seen by the sharp-eyed Lu Bu.

"Where does Shigemitsu wish to go?"

He immediately asked, at the same time will casually throw the hand painting halberd to a side of the personal soldiers, martial arts also do not practice, strides to follow up.

Due to the small amount of exercise, Lu Bu's dark wheat-colored skin did not have a few drops of sweat, he did not care, even the maid sent a cloth towel, was also a face of impatience refused, wipe are not lazy to wipe.

However, when illuminated by the sunlight and then falling into Yan Qing's eyes, those crystal glittering water droplets were particularly eye-catching.

See Yan Qing has been staring straight at himself, half a long time did not wait for an answer, Lu Bu thought he was minding his own appearance is not tidy, can not help but annoyed muttered a sentence, because the speed of speech is extremely fast, even the nearest Yan Qing did not hear.

As a result, in the next moment, Lu Bu casually tugged the front of his thin shirt and rubbed it haphazardly on his face and neck.

Yan Qing originally just instinctively noticed the shiny things, only to see a few more eyes, in fact, those beads of sweat is not a hindrance to the view, but appears to be already brave and brave Lu Bu more handsome and virile, and at this time by the scholars to appreciate the clear handsome and beautiful, rich and elegant posture is different, is pure force of strength and toughness of the incidental, extremely manly kind of handsome.

As a result, the next moment to see him for no reason to come to this pass without rules and regulations of the chaotic wipe, the skin rubbed red not to mention, but also did not wipe off a few drops of sweat, and even by the rules of the bundle, in the practice of martial arts are not much mess of the hair also suffered along with the Yang Yang, it is really too much to look at.

"If the Lord doesn't mind, Qing would like to take over."

While Yan Qing finished politely, her movements were decisive enough that without waiting for Lu Bu's consent, she took the white scarf that the maid was holding in her hands at a loss for words.

He first stopped the hand of the stunned Lu Bu, not telling the other party to continue fooling around, and then slightly stood on his tiptoes, and with sharp but gentle movements, gently used the tip of the scarf to point a few times at the base of his ear on his neck respectively.

Like a pen dipped in ink, will be the slender white wrist lift, in a snow-white neat canvas sketching point painting general elegance and calm, in the blink of an eye on the announcement of the completion of the work.

After wiping away Lu Bu's sweat, Yan Qing was a little bit obsessive-compulsive and reached out to fix Lu Bu's messed up hair. However, the difference in height between the two was so great that even if he straightened his arm, he could not reach the top of his hair, so he had to pat Lu Bu's shoulder, who was as immobile as a log: "Can you please bend down a little, Lord?"

Lu Bu gave a dry, oh-so-dry cry, just as if a stiff, straight branch had been snapped, and bowed forward violently, the height difference narrowly bluffing Yan Qing even though he'd dropped a huge chunk.

However, Yan Qing hid his slight shock well, and instead joked, "As a subject, how can Qing afford to give this big salute out of the blue from His Lordship? Simply bend down some."

The muscles of his body were tensed to death, Lu Bu was simply a gag, listening and straightening up a little bit more.

Only then did Yan Qing find it convenient to do so. Although it was his first time to do this kind of work, but he had always been dexterous, and his mental quality was excellent, even more nimble than the maid who was in awe of the immobile and cross-eyed and cold-sweating Lu Bu, and in a short while, he had gotten it done.

He stepped back and nodded with considerable satisfaction after carefully scrutinizing the finished product.

Seeing that Lu Bu was still dumbfounded, his gaze was locked on him but there were a few moments of bewilderment, not knowing what exactly he was looking at. Yan Qing felt that his expression was rarely less ferocious and his gaze less sharp, and could not help but smile, "Qing has something to look for Fuyi, is it possible that Lord wants to come along?"

Lu Bu then came back to his senses, knitted his thick eyebrows together, and bluntly expressed his dissatisfaction, "What is so important about Chong Guang that he can't share it with Bu, but he has to look for Fu Yi?"

If not for the embarrassment of having just experienced Lu Bu's ferocious gossip about his private life, Yan Qing was able to feel a little bit of the pattern behind his sometimes odd temperament and sudden outbursts of temper, or else he would have had a misunderstanding at this moment, thinking that Lu Bu was suspicious that he was going to gang up with Gao Shun and the rest of the gang.

Yan Qing has understood, Lu Bu although greedy for money and sex, eager to make quick success, but also good and bad, nepotism (this point seems to have recently changed) ...... has a basket of shortcomings, but sometimes it is a special principle clear, plus extremely will not speak.

Combined with his fierce expression, even if he meant well, it was easy for his subordinates to misinterpret it as an evil word that would send chills down one's spine.

It is already Lu Bu's ancestor's honor to have a Gao Shun, and it is impossible for every subordinate to have such a loyalty without complaint and without remorse, and a heart of gold that cannot be broken by lightning even if he is treated wrongly. This is true for military generals, not to mention the literati who have delicate minds and can break a sentence into ten sentences.

Yan Qing can not help but recall in the "Spring and Autumn Annals of the Nine States", there is the reason why Lu Bu was criticized as "harsh treatment of subordinates", leading to disorganization of the army, the hearts of the people hard to get together the biggest reason: that is the power of Lu Bu's riding general Hou Cheng, once for the army shepherded more than a dozen horses, who knows that the subordinate to roll away from the horses to run to Liu Bei to go, he personally led the people to chase back, the matter came to an end after the happy heart, on the spot to celebrate a feast, but forgot to come half of the spoils of war to show respect to Lu Bu. Heart happy, on the spot to feast to celebrate, but did not forget to specially divided half of the spoils of war to Lu Bu to show respect.

As a result, Lu Bu didn't appreciate it and scolded him, saying that as the commander-in-chief, he was forbidding alcohol in the army, but Hou Cheng brought some people to brew wine and invited other generals to eat and drink together, did he have the intention of opposing him? Hou Cheng was deeply hurt, and since then he has been centrifugal with Lu Bu.

However, in Yan Qing's opinion, Lu Bu's insistence on strict military discipline was not half bad, it was only his complete lack of speaking skills that wasted 'Yu' and spoiled it into 'Flaw'.

In the beginning, it was Hou Cheng supervised not to say, entrusted by the wrong person to have a subordinate to steal the horse defection, he realized to suppress, this is within the duty, as a punishment for the crime is already open to grace, how shamelessly up to the credit?

Even if you want to make a feast to celebrate, you should first ask the commander-in-chief Lu Bu's consent, rather than first deciding, overstepping his role; furthermore, knowing that the army banned alcohol, as a general not only do not set an example, but also take the initiative to brew, in the army to invite friends, which is whether there is to hold the 'law is not responsible for the public' intention, let people do not know.

Lu Bu scolded even the taboo Hou Cheng, is to maintain discipline in the army, and set an example not to bribe, not greedy for pleasure, this is a good story. Just a sentence "can have the intention of rebellion" drink really superfluous, call the side of the generals will inevitably rise rabbit death fox sadness; two do not know timely reward and punishment, three to ...... still too straight, do not know to say something beautiful.

If Yan Qing opened his mouth, he would have been able to punish Hou Cheng for half a month, but he also told the other party to be convinced and grateful.

In any case, Yan Qing had already guessed thoroughly at Lu Bu's questioning at this moment.

Translated a little, it would be about - "What is it that cannot be solved by looking for Bu, so that he has to seek far and near to find what Gao Shun?"

Realizing this serious problem, Yan Qing had no reason to leave him unattended. But these deep-rooted bad habits, even if the good voice to persuade too much, but also not to fight fire with fire a few times, told him to realize the disadvantages of not talking properly to be effective.

As soon as Yan Qing made up his mind, he immediately glared angrily at Lu Bu, easily acting out the feeling of being humiliated and enraged, "Since when did Qing even have to get permission from His Lordship to visit and talk with his friends? Or does the Lord suspect Qing of disloyalty and wants to conspire with Fuyi to harm your life?"

One moment he was smiling like a spring breeze, the next moment on the convergence of anger, change face more than fast, Lu Bu was dumbfounded.

It took a while before he remembered to say angrily, "Bu by no means meant that! But yes, but ......"

Seeing that he was so anxious and angry that he was about to become a stutterer, but was half unable to tell the truth, Yan Qing sneered, half unwilling to listen to his explanation, and whisked his sleeve straight away.

Lu Bu where to stand this kind of injustice, a big stride to catch up with Yan Qing took a few steps away, in the heat of the moment, he was to straighten out the words, and then asked the export, is with Yan Qing before the general guess.

However, Yan Qing initially only thought to give it a try, but the effect was far better than what he had envisioned. He knew that he could not go too far in one breath, lest he push Lu Bu to become counterproductive, so he went along with these roaring explanations and his face cleared up a little.

But although the tone of voice has eased, listening is still cold: "Qing although I believe that the Lord is really a good intention, still hope that you will be careful in the future, do not chill the heart of the loyal and good."

Yan Qing since worshipped under Lu Bu's banner, no matter to whom is warm words and soft words, slightly smiling, with people and gas, undoubtedly the excellent impression of a modest gentleman, never with any person has been half angry, at first glance, soft and seemingly temperless people.

Even Jia, who knew something about his nature, only knew that this core was black through and through, and by no means thought that he would argue with someone red-faced to their face.

Yesterday misunderstanding Lu Bu questioning, when he made a big fuss, but also softly bent on self-cleaning and self-evidence, where as now so tit for tat, anti-fierce a meal back.

The first time he broke the precepts, Yan Qing knew that he was acting and did not feel powerful yet, but he forgot that the more gentle and kind a person is on weekdays, the more intimidating it is when he starts to get angry.

The martial arts courage of the world, with few against many and the more the more courageous, not the slightest fear of Lu Bu was actually bluffed hard, a moment and a half a little slow down, really did not follow him together to find Gao Shun.

Rather unintentionally, it was exactly what Yan Qing wanted - otherwise it would not be good to talk to Gao Shun.

Yan Qing went there early, and it was a coincidence that he went there, Gao Shun had just finished the part that was in his charge and let Zhang Liao take over.

As a result, as soon as he exited the schoolyard, he saw the smiling Shigemitsu-san, and in his surprise, he busied himself with coming to greet him.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, a happy Gao Shun remembered to ask the other party's intention, Yan Qing smiled and said, "I wonder if Fuyi can borrow a place with Qing to talk?"

When Gao Shun heard this, he could not help but get nervous, only when the matter is critical, which is not agreed, immediately led Yan Qing to the inner hall, and screened off all the soldiers.

Only then did Yan Qing clear up the reason for his visit.

Gao Shun, who was highly favored by Yan Qing, did not fail to live up to expectations, and after listening to his request, without even asking for the reason, he readily agreed to it, promising to do his best.

Just immediately after, this smiling honest man pertinently published the next true opinion: "According to Shun's opinion, the Lord will not agree."

Yan Qing: "......"
