The Horse of the Three Kingdoms Treads the World

() On July 23rd, two days after the Xiliang reinforcements arrived in Chang'an, Wang Yun invited the officials of the same dynasty to his mansion in front of everyone after the next court, bluntly saying that it was his 55th birthday .Naturally, most of the officials of the same dynasty agreed to this, while some people were afraid that Dong Zhuo would be suspicious because of this, so they did not make a clear statement.

But these people were obviously too careful, because Dong Zhuo had already known about this matter, and Wang Yun had already invited him to a banquet at his mansion.However, Dong Zhuo did not agree to this matter. Now that his status was much higher than that allowed by the king, it was naturally impossible to condescend to participate in his birthday banquet, but he also acquiesced to this banquet.In Dong Zhuo's view, the officials in the entire Chang'an city are now under his control, and even if they get together, they can't accomplish anything.

In addition, as a member of the Xiliang Army, Lu Bu became the only general who was invited.After officially receiving the invitation, he seemed even more hesitant, wondering whether he should accept the invitation or not.In fact, from what Wang Yun said before, he already clearly felt that the other party wanted to win him over, but it was still difficult to guess what he wanted to do. This was the key to Lu Bu's inability to decide for a while.

So during the whole day, Lu Bu was always a little distracted, just constantly weighing how he should choose which is the most appropriate.He also thought of going over to ask Ma Yue whether he should go or not, but then he dismissed the idea. After all, he is not Ma Yue's subordinate now, so how can he consult him about everything?

After thinking about it for a day, when it was dark, Lu Bu finally made up his mind. He still planned to go to Wang Yun's mansion, but he couldn't go there too early. It would be best for him to show up after Wang Yun finished entertaining the others. .In this way, it will not be noticed by some caring people, and it can also reflect his difference.

Although Lu Bu didn't arrive on time, other officials still came to Wang Yun's mansion one by one at dusk.The crowd came to the main hall under the guidance of the servants of the Wang family. A sumptuous banquet had already been set up here, and Wang Yun, who was the birthday king, was waiting there in brand new clothes.

After some congratulatory speeches, everyone gathered together, and then the whole hall was full of toasts, and it became lively.People kept getting up and toasting Wang Yun's birthday and saying auspicious words. Although the scene here was not as grand as when Dong Zhuo hosted Xiliang generals the day before, it was still quite lively.

Wang Yun also toasted with everyone with a smile on his face, talking and laughing.After three rounds of drinking like this, when more than half of the people were a little bit drunk, Wang Yun suddenly put the wine glass in his hand on the table, and then there was a sad look on his face, and two cloudy eyes Tears rolled down my face.

"This... Why is the prince like this? Today is your birthday, you should be happy, why are you crying instead?" Other people were surprised when they saw this, and they asked questions one after another.

To this, Wang Yun's answer was a long sigh, and then he stood up again, bowed deeply towards the people present, and saluted: "Wang really doesn't want to deceive you, in fact, it's not me today. birthday."

"Ah?" All the officials were surprised when they heard him speak like this, obviously they didn't expect such an accident.

Afterwards, the outspoken person asked, "Since today is not your birthday, why did the prince invite us to this birthday banquet?"

It was this sentence that Wang Yun was waiting for, and the voice over there fell, and here he sighed again: "To be honest, Wang did it out of helplessness and wanted to tell you, so he lied that today is today. It's my birthday. My lords, don't you all feel the situation of us big fellows now? Under the shock of Xiliang Dong Zhuo, we big fellows have long been unable to do their best for the court, and just want to get together Talking about the court situation is also very difficult..."

Wang Yun's words immediately aroused the grief and indignation of everyone.This is exactly the fact. After Dong Zhuo came, he suppressed all these important officials of the court one by one. Many officials who still wanted to resist were killed or expelled from the officialdom by various cruel means.Now the rest of these people have swallowed their anger for a long time, so that they can continue to be officials in the court, so they naturally hate Dong Zhuo's behavior of covering the sky with one hand.

Now that Wang Yun said this suddenly, they also began to talk about it painfully, expressing their unhappiness.

"That's right, Dong Zhuo was just a general on the sidelines, but now he is bullying the emperor and controlling the courtiers. He really has the heart of disobedience."

"It's more than that? He abolished the emperor and established a new one, and even excavated all the tombs of the previous emperors. His behavior is probably worse than that of rebellious officials and thieves. However, those people who have their hearts towards the court and raised troops to suppress the thieves have appeared several times Chaos, which allowed him to be at ease until now."

"I just have pity on the courtiers like us. Now they are in their control. Even if they want to be the emperor and contribute to our great Han society, they are still unable to do what they want."

"I think that my great man has been passed down for more than three hundred years, but he is powerless because of such a rebellious minister and traitor. If the kings and virtuous ministers of the past dynasties have spirits in heaven, how would they treat us who are incompetent later..."

The more people talked, the more grievance and resentment they felt in their hearts, and finally everyone cursed Dong Zhuo one after another.But after scolding for a while, they felt that this kind of behavior could not change the situation in front of them. In frustration, some people cried aloud, crying why there are no loyal people in the world to wipe out the courtiers, and crying why they are powerless to everything in front of them.

The entire birthday banquet was completely shrouded in mourning and crying, just like today is Wang Yun's taboo day.

"People's hearts are still available. Among the officials of the whole court, there are still people who have hearts for my Han royal family!" Wang Yun looked at everything in front of him, and he had a bottom line in his heart, and he said: "Everyone, we are waiting for you!" I'm scolding and crying here, but it's impossible to scold Dong Zhuo and those barbarians from Xiliang and cry away. Today, the old man invited you here. Apart from wanting to tell you about the past, I also want to ask for your opinions. What do you think we should do now?"

His question made everyone startled. The officials who were still crying and cursing at that moment stopped and looked at Wang Yun with astonishment.Obviously, they were very surprised by this proposal, and they didn't have the guts to really do something against Dong Zhuo.The facts are before our eyes, those who were enemies of Dong Zhuo all ended up tragically ruined, how could they dare to touch this fate?

As soon as Wang Yun saw the appearance of the people, he knew what they were thinking, which made him very disappointed.It turned out that he still expected that he would be able to respond like a cloud after his words, but he didn't expect Dong Zhuo's deterrent power to be so strong that all the officials no longer dared to be enemies with him.

However, Wang Yun did not cancel his decision just like that. After scanning the crowd, he said: "Everyone is here today because of the great kindness of the court. Could it be that the court is in trouble now, and we shouldn't contribute our efforts?" ?”

These words made everyone feel ashamed, and they felt ashamed of their own weakness and fear of death, but they knew better about the current situation, even if they really dared to risk everything to become an enemy of Dong Zhuo, it would be impossible. odds.Wang Yun also saw this, so he continued: "The old man knows what you are all worried about. Indeed, judging from the current situation in Chang'an City, even if we intend to kill the thief, we are powerless. However, nothing in the world Absolutely, as long as we have a heart dedicated to the court, there will always be a way to change all of this."

"Could it be that the prince has some clever plan?" Seeing that he was sure, everyone immediately became a little interested and couldn't help asking.

"Miao can't count, but the old man is still a little fussy. You think, why Dong Zhuo transferred the troops stationed in Xiliang to Chang'an now? Of course, it is to go further east, so that those who have been against him in the past will be sent to Chang'an. The Kwantung coalition forces were all wiped out. But if he really marched eastward, there would inevitably be loopholes in the guards in Chang'an City.

"Although we and others do not have military power in our hands, there are thousands of servants and cronies in our family. As long as we can seize this opportunity, we will make a sudden attack and want to kill all the Xiliang troops who stayed in Chang'an City. Annihilation is not a problem either. This is a consideration that the old man invited everyone to come here today."

"Although there is some truth in what the prince said, this matter is too important after all. Is it true that only us and the servants at home can accomplish this? After all, what we have to deal with are the Xiliang police soldiers who have experienced many battles. If the matter fails, then all of us here, including the whole family, will be wiped out! I wonder how sure the prince is about this?"

"If we are the only ones doing this, the old man can bluntly say that we are not sure. But if we add an important general in the Xiliang Army, he will also stand by our side?" Wang Yun suddenly smiled mysteriously.

"What? There is such a person who is willing to help us? This person is a general in the Xiliang Army? Can the prince tell me who this person is?" Hearing these words, everyone's spirits were suddenly lifted, and there was some confusion. A general with an army in his hand helped them to launch a sudden attack, so the matter was naturally much more certain.

Just when Wang Yun was about to say something, a servant ran over and whispered something in his ear, and he immediately bowed his hands to everyone: "Everyone, wait a moment, the old man will come back when he goes." Then he left the lobby, which surprised everyone.

But Wang Yun came to the study on the other side anxiously at this time, and when he saw the person who was already sitting in the guest seat, he laughed: "General Lu's coming really makes this old man very happy... "The mysterious visitor who came suddenly and made Wang Yun leave everyone behind is naturally Lu Bu Lu Fengxian!
