About half a day ago, when Lu Bu and Lu Wen rode on horseback in Zhuqiu County, it seemed that they were planning to go out.

"Lord, where are you going?" Chen Gong chased after him and asked. At this time, Cao's army and Liu's army would attack at any time, go out at this time, and look at each other depending on the situation.

"Investigate...Investigate..." Lu Bu replied casually.

"My mother plans to go to the north to investigate and check the enemy's movements!" Lu Wen added.

"I know!" Chen Gong was a little anxious, "You just need to send a scout cavalry to come here, so why do you need to go there in person?"

"………………” Lu Bu tilted his head, his hair was a little drooping, and his expression seemed to be asking: No?

"Dangdangdang... Of course not!" Chen Gong heard this, a feeling of guilt swept over, "It's just that this kind of rough work is not suitable for you to do it yourself... Look, the sun is so fierce, what if your skin is damaged?"

"..." Lu Bu looked at the sun. The wind was bright and the cool breeze was gentle. He immediately closed his eyes, "Very...good..."

"Ha?" Chen Gong couldn't understand what Lu Bu meant, then glanced at the corner of his eyes and saw the... basket in Lu Wen's hand? It was square, made of rattan, covered with a piece of linen, and there seemed to be something inside...

"Slow down!" Chen Gong immediately reacted, "Maybe the lord...is actually planning to go out for a picnic?"

Indeed, it is sunny and the weather is very suitable for picnics... But is it really good to go out for a picnic at this time?!

"………………” Lu Bu looked at Chen Gong, his eyes full of anticipation, and he was like acting coquettishly.

"No, no, no...it's not that I won't let you go out...it's just that at this time, there are enemy scouts in the north at any time..." Chen Gong replied hurriedly. As long as food is involved, some things must be compromised.

"The military advisor actually doesn't need to worry at all..." Lu Wen came forward, "Even if we encounter a small enemy force, it is impossible to keep our mother! Our main goal to go north is to investigate the situation of the enemy!"

"If this is the case... then please be careful with your lord...or should you take your personal guard out?" asked the envoy Chen Gong.

"………………” Lu Bu shook his head and expressed his dislike, but looked at Chen Gong, "Another... come?"

"I was flattered by the invitation of the lord! But now there are many things that need to be handled by Zhuqiu County, so..." Chen Gong wanted to go very much, but the current situation did not allow her to go there at all.

Originally, as Lu Bu occupied Xuzhou, the Cao family and the Chen family also expressed their loyalty. However, the aristocratic families were like this. They could surrender to you when they were in power, and they might secretly communicate with others when they were in power. Chen Gong could not believe in the Chen father and daughter, nor did he dare to completely believe in Cao Bao, and he still had to deal with many things himself.

"............ start..." Lu Bu said, signaled to Lu Wen, and then rode his horse forward. Without full speed, Chitu's speed was not something that ordinary horses could catch up with. If it was full speed, I'm afraid Lu Wen would not be able to catch up with her at all.

In this way, the mother and daughter left Zhuqiu County directly and moved northward.

It took about sixty miles to reach the speed of a red rabbit when riding a horse. It took about half an hour to reach the other side. Considering the situation with Lu Wen, the two of them rode about an hour before they arrived near Cao Camp. They found a high ground and looked at each other's camp from afar.

"Liu Bei and the other two entered Xiahou Dun's tent. It seems that they are planning to discuss something... Maybe they will start to march in the short term!" Lu Wen looked at it for a few minutes, then said to Lu Bu beside her.

At this time, it was when Xiahou Dun invited Liu Bei and the other two to stay for a simple meal. Perhaps no one knew that on the high ground not far away, Lu Bu actually came to investigate in person.

"Let's go......" Lu Bu turned around and got on the horse. Investigate or something, just by the way. Such a good weather, it's really not good to waste it here!

"Okay, sir, wait for me!" Lu Wen checked the lunch basket and then set it on the horse. After thinking about it, he suggested to Lu Bu, "My mother, remember when we came, we passed by a lotus pond. Do you want it..."

"..." Lu Bu nodded, Dai Mao made a move in the wind, and seemed to agree with this proposal.

On the way, Lu Wen hesitated for a moment, and finally asked tentatively: "Mother, Cao Bao's previous proposal..."

Some time ago, Lu Bu occupied Xuzhou. When Cao Bao saw that Lu Bu had not yet married, he expressed his hope to adopt his daughter Cao Yuan (boudoir name "Yuan") as her adopted daughter, just like Lu Wen.

In this world, adopted daughters also have the right to inherit, which was Cao Bao's plan. He knew very well that since he gave up Liu Bei and surrendered to Lu Bu, he knew that he might not be trusted, so he needed an opportunity to maintain the trust between him and Lu Bu.

Of course, if you can get some advantage, it will naturally be the best result!

"………………” Lu Bu shook his head, and she didn't know whether she would agree. Chen Gong hoped to agree, so that this would gain Cao Bao's trust and help her restrain the Chen family. Originally, Xuzhou was the Cao family, and the Mi family and the Chen family were in a three-legged relationship, restraining each other. Now the Mi family completely defected to Liu Bei. It is not a good thing that the Chen family or the Cao family would overwhelm the other.

For Lu Bu, she is also a girl, so she naturally has the idea of ​​getting married, but this idea is very light, just like the instinct of an animal. This is also the main reason why she has not gotten married even when she is almost forty years old. So if she can adopt Lu Wen, she can naturally adopt Cao Bao's daughter.

But she didn't know how to tell Lu Wen, after all, she suddenly had an extra sister and something that was afraid that Lu Wen would be unhappy.

"If it's for my mother's great cause, I'll have no problem!" Lu Wen gritted her teeth and said to Lu Bu.

"..." Lu Bu slowed down his horse speed, tied with Lu Wen, then reached out and touched her head, as if saying, "Wen'er is so well-behaved, and her mother is very happy." Of course, it could also be "I owe you, I'm so sorry."

Soon, the two of them had already arrived at the lotus pond, which was right next to the water. It should not have been formed naturally. The terrain near this place was flat, and perhaps earlier, there was a wealthy family here, but with the changes of the times, it was also deserted and there was a vague rubble, which seemed to be telling others what had happened here.

"In the past, there should be a family here. The lotus pond should be the yard of that family." Lu Wen pointed to the lotus pond, "It depends on the situation. It has been a long time, at least for hundreds of years, and no one has lived there."

"..." Lu Bu didn't say anything, and looked at Lu Wen silently, just with his dazed hair on his head.

"Sorry, I'm a little intoxicated...My mother, it's time to have a meal!" Lu Wen realized that her mother obviously didn't care much about these things, and she was more concerned about what she was eating today.

"Today's lunch mainly includes roasted chicken, steamed buns, pickled radishes, and your favorite roasted sweet potatoes and roasted potatoes." Lu Wen put down the basket, took out a carpet from the harness, spread it on the ground, and then opened the basket to show the food to Lu Bu.

"………………” Lu Bu's dazed hair shook, obviously very happy, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.

"After that..." Lu Wen lay on the carpet, murmured half asleep and half awake, "In this sunny and cool breeze, looking at the lotus pond with flowers and leaves, there are constant frogs in the lotus pond, even if it is comfortable to lie down... It would be great if there was no war in this world, and you will live such a peaceful life every day..."

Seeing that Lu Wen was slowly asleep, Lu Bu didn't disturb her. He picked up a steamed bun and took a bite, showing a comfortable expression. He shook his hair with one move. In such an environment, the food seemed to become more delicious!

About twenty minutes later, Lu Bu reached into the basket, but there was nothing inside.

"..." Lu Bu touched in confusion, then looked down and saw that there was indeed nothing inside. She was immediately confused, why did it suddenly disappear? Could it be that the little girl stole the food?

I looked at Lu Wen. Since the beginning, she has been sleeping there, and it seems impossible to eat it secretly... I looked around and found no abnormality. It shouldn't be a wild beast that stole these foods!

Then look down at the chicken bones, sweet potato skins, potato skins... The real murderer is himself!

After looking at Lu Wen, Lu Bu felt that the situation was a bit bad. The latter had not eaten yet in the morning. Half of the things in this basket were originally... at least some of them were hers!

What should I do? Lu Bu was a little panicked, and the dull hair on his head kept shaking, as if he was in a state of silence.

"Cow quack quack..." In the pond, the frogs were still yelling. Lu Bu weighed it and took off his boots, revealing a pair of crystal white jade feet, and then slowly walked towards the lotus pond.

"Splash" and the whole person was quickly submerged in the pond. It turned out that the pond was not shallow and there was a lot of silt.

Seeing that his body was completely wet, Lu Bu looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he threw all the wet clothes aside and kept searching in the pond.

Soon, I caught several frogs one after another, and at the same time I also dug out two lotus roots wrapped in mud. With these, can I make something delicious, right?

Considering her appetite, she was thinking about continuing to catch some, and something seemed to be coming from afar. At first, she didn't care much, after all, she had just touched a lotus root and was about to dig it out, but two figures suddenly appeared within sight.
