"Lingqi?"

"What happened to her?"

Lu Bu asked in surprise.

Gu Yi spread his hands and said:

"General Fengxian, don't you think that the way you usually teach Lingqi has big problems?"

"She is your only heir; you don't put your love on her, but instead want to train her into the next you."

"What are you... plotting?"

Being asked this by Gu Yi, Lu Bu fell into silence again.

Although he had already been silent enough times today,

there was no way, as the words Gu Yi said were truly hitting the nail on the head.

This caused Lu Bu to have no way to give any other response besides silence.

Lu Lingqi, who was on the side, heard this, and the look she gave Gu Yi was filled with gratitude and a faint, hidden admiration.

She was not yet fifteen years old at this time,

but women in this era were generally precocious.

If Lu Lingqi had been born in an ordinary family, she might have already been married.

However, she was Lu Bu's daughter, so naturally, she didn't have to be forced to marry so early.

But precisely because she was Lu Bu's daughter,

she was forced by her father Lu Bu to practice martial arts every day,

and the maiden thoughts in her heart had always been suppressed.

Gu Yi was the first person to speak up to help her persuade Lu Bu last time.

And this time, Gu Yi directly pointed out that Lu Bu's educational method had problems.

To some extent, Gu Yi could be considered Lu Lingqi's savior.

Otherwise,

according to Lu Bu's educational method, Lu Lingqi would likely have gone crazy sooner or later.

"General Fengxian, you only have this one daughter!"

"Do you really have the heart to let your daughter suffer the bitterness you have suffered again?"

Gu Yi struck while the iron was hot.

Hearing this,

Lu Bu let out a long sigh.

He looked at Lu Lingqi on the side.

He saw a trace of longing for freedom appearing in Lu Lingqi's eyes.

"Fine, fine, since that is the case, then I will no longer demand Lingqi as I did before."

Lu Bu finally agreed to relent.

Lu Lingqi looked at Gu Yi with gratitude.

The latter returned a smile as a signal.

Helping Lu Lingqi was actually just something done in passing.

However,

what Gu Yi didn't know was

that in Lu Lingqi's heart, the maiden's feelings were like a flower about to bloom, difficult to suppress.

Looking at Gu Yi's back as he left Lu Fu, Lu Lingqi couldn't recover for a long time.

Fortunately, Lu Bu was also a person with thick nerves.

He didn't discover the abnormality of his daughter.

If he had known that his daughter's heart had been seduced away by Gu Yi, Lu Bu would definitely have been so angry that he would have pulled out his Fangtian Huaji on the spot!

That afternoon,

Lu Bu went to the military camp to inform all the Bingzhou soldiers except for the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry.

From now on, all soldiers of the Bingzhou faction would be reorganized into the new army.

Regarding this, the Bingzhou soldiers had shock, joy, confusion, and even more hesitation.

However,

when they learned the news that their military pay and treatment had been greatly improved,

everyone couldn't help but let out joyful cheers!

Looking at the heartfelt smiles on the soldiers' faces,

the heavy burden hanging on Lu Bu's body finally fell away.

From now on, the Bingzhou army would welcome a brand new future.

And Lu Bu would also wholeheartedly serve as the commander of the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry, galloping on the battlefield!

Three months passed in a flash.

The Bingzhou army had all been incorporated into the new army.

After Lu Bu handed over the military power in his hands, the Bingzhou faction became a thing of the past.

Coupled with Xu Rong, who was guarding Liangzhou as General of the West, and Hu Zhen, who was guarding Sishui Pass,

the Luoyang Imperial Guard faction also existed in name only.

Of the three major factions of the past, only the Xiliang loyalists remained.

And in the past three months,

Dong Zhuo had successively called the Xiliang generals into the Prime Minister's residence.

He made a series of adjustments to the military power under their command.

The conflicts between the three major factions were thoroughly resolved by Gu Yi in the gentlest way.

From now on,

strictly speaking, there was no longer a division of the three major factions in the Dong Zhuo army.

All soldiers would become regular troops of the imperial court!

And at the same time,

Dong Bai also handled Cai Bojie's wife. (This wife was a concubine who had been elevated, as mentioned earlier.)

Under the constant pillow talk of the wife, Cai Bojie finally planned to marry Cai Zhaoji to Gu Yi.

Although it was as a concubine,

Dong Bai, the mistress of the Gu residence, promised that she would never wrong Cai Zhaoji.

Cai Bojie thought it was also true.

With Dong Bai's status and position, there was absolutely no need to make things difficult for Cai Zhaoji.

Therefore,

Cai Zhaoji officially became Gu Yi's concubine.

Actually,

the pillow talk was just a step for Cai Bojie.
