Dong Bai was no exception.

"However, husband, after recovering Liangzhou, Ma Teng's family will definitely have to join grandfather's command."

"At that time, why don't you take Miss Ma as a concubine?"

"Huh?"

"Bai'er, are you joking with your husband?"

Gu Yi felt a bit incredible.

Although Dong Bai didn't give the concubine Diao Chan any trouble.

But what primary wife would rush to help her husband take concubines?

"Husband, Bai'er is not joking with you, Bai'er is serious!"

Dong Bai puffed up her little face and said, pretending to be angry.

Her husband was simply too powerful!

Powerful in every aspect!

Especially at night.

Dong Bai felt that in the long run, perhaps she alone would not be able to bear it.

Therefore, helping her husband take more concubines was actually a disguised way of sharing the pressure.

Anyway, her status in her husband's heart could not be shaken by anyone, and that was enough.

"Alright, alright, our Bai'er is the best."

"But the matter of Miss Ma hasn't even started yet."

"Let's talk about it later."

Gu Yi pinched Dong Bai's exquisite face.

Although Ma Yunlu's beauty was indeed quite good.

And because she was a martial artist, she also had a kind of beauty that ordinary beauties did not possess.

But in Gu Yi's heart, other women naturally could not compare to Dong Bai.

He would always put Dong Bai in the first place.

The Gu residence was not far from the Prime Minister's residence.

Soon, the two returned to the residence.

At this time, Ma Yunlu had recovered a little strength.

But because she was too exhausted before, she still could not walk on her own.

Under Dong Bai's orders, several servants in the residence were responsible for taking care of Ma Yunlu's daily life.

A few days passed in a flash.

The army led by Niu Fu, Li Jue, and Guo Si.

Had already departed from Chang'an.

To Liangzhou to recover lost territory.

At the same time.

Xu Rong had also taken Zhao Yun and Zhang He to Fufeng to rescue Ma Teng.

In Chang'an City.

Lu Bu, who did not get a chance to fight, was currently teaching his daughter Lu Lingqi at home.

When watching the Three Kingdoms, there is often an illusion that Lu Bu's age is relatively young.

In fact, Lu Bu's age is not much younger than Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.

His daughter, Lu Lingqi, is now thirteen or fourteen years old.

Lu Lingqi was wearing a set of red lamellar armor and holding a smaller version of the painted halberd.

Under Lu Bu's guidance, she danced with great vigor.

"The force is still too small."

"As my daughter, how can you be so weak?"

Although Lu Lingqi's martial arts were already more powerful than many generals in the Bingzhou system.

But in Lu Bu's view, this was still far from enough.

I don't know what happened.

Lu Bu and his wife, Lady Yan, had studied the child-making plan for a long time.

But for so many years, they had only given birth to one daughter, Lu Lingqi.

Without a son, Lu Bu thought about treating Lu Lingqi as a son.

Resulting in Lu Bu having relatively high requirements for Lu Lingqi in almost everything.

"Hoo..."

Lu Lingqi really couldn't practice anymore, slumped on the ground, panting heavily.

"Get up!"

"As my daughter, how can you be defeated by such a small difficulty?"

Lu Bu frowned, looking stern.

But Lu Lingqi was really out of strength at this moment.

No matter how much Lu Bu shouted, she just slumped there and couldn't climb up.

Just as Lu Bu was about to take action to let her feel a bit of "fatherly love."

Suddenly, the butler ran over from not far away and reported to Lu Bu:

"Master, someone claiming to be Gu Yi is waiting outside, saying he wants to visit you."

"What? Gu Yi is actually here?"

Lu Bu exclaimed.

Although he was not unfamiliar with Gu Yi.

Gu Yi had even brought Zhao Yun to him as a sparring partner before.

But that was already a few months ago.

For so long, there had been almost no direct communication between Lu Bu and Gu Yi.

And not long ago, Gu Yi had already married Dong Bai.

He was considered to have firmly established his status as a Xiliang core member.

The Bingzhou system led by Lu Bu naturally kept Gu Yi at a greater distance.

But unexpectedly, Gu Yi would take the initiative to come to his door today.

"Master, should I see him or not?"

The butler asked.

"Nonsense, of course I have to see him."

"Let me see what medicine this guy is selling in his gourd."

Lu Bu said.

Although Lu Bu's brain CPU capacity might not be high.

But he was not a fool.

Gu Yi was not only the strategist of Dong Zhuo's army but also the husband of Dong Zhuo's only granddaughter.

It was best not to offend Gu Yi if possible.

Don't look at Lu Bu as Dong Zhuo's adopted son in name.

But how could everyone not know the value of this adopted son?

Compared to Gu Yi, the grandson-in-law.

Lu Bu, the adopted son, was simply nothing!

"You continue practicing, no slacking off!"

"Wait until I finish receiving the guest, then continue."

Lu Bu ordered Lu Lingqi.

At this moment, Lu Lingqi was exhausted.

She didn't even have the strength to stand up from the ground again.

She could only watch helplessly as her father and the butler walked away.

At the gate of the Lu residence.

The person who came to visit Lu Bu was indeed Gu Yi himself.

Standing behind him was also the captain of the personal guards, Huang Zhong.

However, Gu Yi didn't come to find Lu Bu today to let Huang Zhong and Lu Bu duel.

Gu Yi didn't have such a boring sense of humor.

He came today to do something important.

The gate of the Lu residence opened slowly.

Lu Bu appeared in Gu Yi's field of vision.

"General Fengxian, it's been a long time since we talked alone."

"I came here today because I have something important to discuss with you."

Gu Yi said straight to the point.

Hearing this, Lu Bu raised his eyebrows slightly, then made a "please" gesture, inviting Gu Yi into the residence.

The Lu residence was not big.

Compared to the residences Dong Zhuo arranged for Li Jue, Guo Si, and others.

It could even be called "incredibly small"!

From this, it can also be seen.

Lu Bu, although the leader of the Bingzhou system under Dong Zhuo's command.

Was really not doing well.

After moving the capital to Chang'an, the residences of the high-level officials of Dong Zhuo's army were all arranged by Dong Zhuo.

Gu Yi's residence was in an excellent location, not far from the Prime Minister's residence, which could be called the most prosperous area in Chang'an City.

Lu Bu's residence was in the remote south of the city.

Not only small but also an old house in disrepair.

Without comparison, there is no harm.

Compared to Gu Yi's luxurious residence.

Lu Bu's house seemed to be made of scraps.

However, Gu Yi was not a great philanthropist.

He came here today, naturally not to improve Lu Bu's living conditions.

When passing through the courtyard of the Lu residence.

Gu Yi caught a glimpse of Lu Lingqi, who was struggling to climb up from the ground, trying her best not to fall.

Seeing this, Lu Bu frowned.

But because Gu Yi, a guest, was here, he couldn't easily flare up for a while.

"General Fengxian, this is...?"

However, Gu Yi couldn't help but ask.

He had long heard that Lu Bu was very harsh on his daughter.

Forcing her to practice martial arts every day.

If she didn't meet the requirements, he would use fists and kicks to let her feel the deep "fatherly love."

For this way of education, Gu Yi really couldn't understand.

Why must she practice martial arts?

Lu Lingqi is a girl; does she need to rely on martial arts to establish some unparalleled merit?

Although this was Lu Bu's family affair, Gu Yi had no obligation or qualification to manage too much.

But since he happened to encounter it today, Gu Yi really couldn't bear the curiosity in his heart and couldn't help but ask Lu Bu a question.

Seeing Gu Yi ask about this matter.

Lu Bu's face darkened.

In his view, his daughter Lu Lingqi had lost face for him, and it was in front of a guest!

However, since Gu Yi had already asked.

Lu Bu had to answer:

"This is my dog of a daughter, Lu Lingqi."

"I was just teaching her martial arts."

"But she is really too stupid, not even reaching one-fifth of my level back then."

Hearing this, the corners of Gu Yi's mouth twitched violently.

Who is Lu Bu?

The existence with the number one martial arts in the world today.

Lu Lingqi is his daughter.

But Lu Bu is not born every year.

For so many years, only one Lu Bu has been born.

Gu Yi could only say that Lu Bu's plan to cultivate Lu Lingqi into a second himself was simply whimsical.

"General Fengxian, although I am an outsider and shouldn't interfere in your family affairs."

"But... your daughter is only thirteen or fourteen years old; are you really not afraid of training her into trouble with this kind of training?"

Being told this by Gu Yi.

Lu Bu showed a thoughtful look.

Then replied:

"She is my daughter!"

"No matter what, she cannot lose face for me!"

Gu Yi was simply speechless.

Lu Bu's strange thoughts were even more speechless than some parents in later generations.

To be honest.

Lu Lingqi's talent for martial arts is actually quite good.

But according to Lu Bu's way of training... what for?

But looking at Lu Bu like this.

Gu Yi estimated that there was no way to change Lu Lingqi's miserable situation for the time being.

Thus, he had to change his tactic and said to Lu Bu:

"General Fengxian, let your daughter go down and rest for a while."

"The matter I want to discuss with you today is a major matter concerning the elite troops under your command."

"I'm afraid it will take a long time to finish."

Hearing this, Lu Bu finally relented.

Agreed to let Lu Lingqi go down and rest for a while.

Afterward, he took Gu Yi to the main hall to discuss matters.

Watching Gu Yi's departing figure.

A hint of emotion flashed in Lu Lingqi's eyes.

Except for her mother, Lady Yan, Gu Yi was the first person to speak up for her.

Actually, Lu Lingqi didn't know why her father Lu Bu was so harsh on her.

But... once she made her father unhappy, the consequences would only be more serious.

Her mother, Lady Yan, was also a timid person and couldn't protect her at all.

Therefore, every time Lu Lingqi practiced the halberd until she was exhausted, she didn't dare to complain of fatigue easily.

She didn't know when such days would end.

In the main hall.

Lu Bu and Gu Yi sat opposite each other.
