The brothers who traveled westward in those years

Chapter 324 0325

Lu Bu didn't bother Long Fei and Sun Shangxiang because they were just children in his eyes.After drinking the wine, he returned to the palace and continued to serve as Dong Zhuo's personal guard.

On this day, all the ministers in the early court did not say a word, and only Dong Zhuo was boasting in the court hall.No matter what kind of suggestion he made, the people in the hall only agreed and did not object.Such an early court is the most time-saving, and after the retreat, it is still Dong Zhuo who leaves first, and then the emperor leaves the hall.

Baiguan gradually left the hall, and someone whispered to them before going out.Many officials in the DPRK received the invitation at the same time, and more than two-thirds of the officials will definitely attend the appointment on time.But the little eunuch who notified them only said the same sentence, "Today is Lord Wang's birthday, and I invite you to come to the mansion for a gathering."

And every time the officials who heard this sentence answered in the same way, "Don't worry, I must be on time for the appointment."

But there is one person who has not been invited, and he should have been invited.Because he took a look at the people who were invited, and there were many officials who were not as high as him.But no one came to inform him, because they didn't treat him as a family.

His surname is Cao, his name is Cao, and his style name is Mengde. He belongs to the genus of cattle.Even if his temper became stubborn, eight horses would not be able to pull back. Since it was Lord Wang Yun's birthday today, even if he didn't receive an invitation, he would go to ask for a drink.

Wang Yun, courtesy name Zishi, has been an official in his family for generations, and he has served as governor of prefectures and counties for several generations.The governor is the highest official position in a state, and the power is not insignificant.As the Wang family has served as the governor for several generations, their reputation and heritage should not be underestimated.Wang Yun also served as the governor of Yuzhou, but it was a pity that he had a conflict with Zhang Rang, the minister of Zhongchang, and was finally dismissed from office.

Then General He Jin came to power, and Wang Yun was reactivated, and he was transferred to Luoyang to entrust him with important tasks.Although Wang Yun was born in a famous family, but he is only for the Han Dynasty.After the death of General He Jin, he took the initiative to submit his resignation to Dong Zhuo, hoping to return to the fields for the elderly.Unexpectedly, Dong Zhuo rejected his request and even promoted him.

But Dong Zhuo controlled the government, and the Han Dynasty had long since ceased to exist.Wang Yun was heartbroken and refused to go to court with an excuse, because he didn't want to see Dong Zhuo's face.

He is celebrating his birthday at home today, so naturally he wants to invite everyone to come to his home as guests.But it's not just a simple drink and chat, there is another very important thing to discuss with everyone.

People rushed to the gate of the palace one after another, the carriage stopped in the backyard, and the adults entered through the main entrance.When all the guests arrive, the lanterns outside the gate are extinguished, and the gate is closed as if nothing happened.

Cao Cao rode alone to the gate of the palace, but no one greeted him at the gate.Seeing that the lanterns outside the gate of the palace were extinguished, he got off his horse and put his ears on the gate.After a while, Cao Cao slammed on the door hard, finally alarming the butler on duty behind the door.He told the housekeeper to go and report to Lord Wang Yun, saying that Cao Cao, the captain of Xiaoqi school, came to celebrate his birthday.

Naturally, the butler didn't dare to neglect, and immediately ran in to report to Wang Yun.As soon as they heard that Cao Cao was coming, all the adults present unanimously persuaded Wang Yun that he should be turned away.

Some people say that Cao Cao is a villain.Ever since Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang, Cao Cao had been honored by the Holy Grace. The first emperor bestowed upon him one of the Eight Captains of the West Garden.Now, instead of helping the little emperor to restrain Dong Zhuo, he is supporting Dong Zhuo.He has been helping Dong Zhuo with things, and even became a celebrity in front of Dong Zhuo.

Everyone unanimously proposed to keep Cao Cao out, because they all looked down on Cao Cao.But they are all guests, and Wang Yun has the final say on this matter.Today is his birthday, so there is a reason to be angry on his birthday.What's more, Cao Cao came to celebrate his birthday, so there is no reason to turn people away.

Wang Yun ordered the housekeeper to invite Cao Cao into the play, and then added a table near the door.You don't need too many dishes, just half of what you have on the table.The wine doesn't need to be too good, it's fine if it's second-class than your lords'.This time everyone stopped talking, Ganqing Jiang was still old and spicy.

Cao Cao entered the hall, took a seat and began to drink.Everyone in the hall was chatting and laughing happily, but no one paid any attention to Cao Cao.Even if he interjected, no one would follow his words.People talk about whatever they should talk about, and they don't take Cao Cao's words seriously at all.

Now Cao Cao was annoyed, Wang Yun didn't call him on his birthday, and now these people chose to ignore him again.How can he bear such a thing with his temper.

After drinking a pot of strong wine, Cao Cao got up and walked to the middle of the hall.He clasped his fists to Wang Yun and said respectfully, "Master Wang, I can ask you a question."

Wang Yun put down his wine glass and said, "Lieutenant Cao, please tell me."

Cao Cao was about to speak, and everyone put down their wine glasses.They also stopped chatting with each other, and the eyes of the entire hall were focused on Cao Cao.

Cao Cao said: "You didn't inform me of your birthday today. You must have forgotten it all the time. But you adults have always chosen to ignore me, Mr. Cao. I want to ask you why this is so?"

Wang Yun smiled without saying a word, and some people in the hall couldn't bear it anymore.

"You little captain, what kind of prestige do you have in front of us? When is it your turn to speak here, Cao Cao?"

"You were originally one of the eight captains of the West Garden enshrined by the late emperor, but you didn't want to repay the emperor's favor but joined the rebels. Now you still have the face to sit with me and others."

"Cao Cao, don't you really not know what dirty things you have done?"

"Aren't you helping the evildoer by supporting Dong Zhuo?"

"You say it, you say it."

"Hahahahaha!"

Cao Cao laughed instead of anger when he heard the scolding from the audience. He looked up to the sky and laughed in front of so many people.Walking to the wine table at the end, he picked up the wine jug that had already bottomed out, and said to everyone: "Don't say that the wine is strong and cowardly, even if it means letting you idiots drink ten altars of this kind of strong wine!" , how dare you insult Dong Zhuo, that old thief in public."

"you!"

"Hahahaha!"

Seeing everyone staring at him angrily, Cao Cao laughed again, throwing the jug in his hand to the ground.Picking up a jug of unopened good wine in front of him, he tore off the wine seal and drank a few sips.Wiping the wine from the corner of his mouth, he scanned all the officials in the hall.

He said: "You don't even dare to say a word, old thief Dong. What qualifications do you have to teach me about benevolence, righteousness and morality here? Why are you here to teach me how to repay the emperor's kindness? Ah? You tell me, what is the reason for this?" !"

"Cao Cao, this is Lord Wang's mansion, how can you allow a small lieutenant to act wildly here. Come here, tie Cao Cao soon."

"Wait a minute!"

Wang Yun, who had been silent all the time, suddenly spoke, picked up the bowl of wine in front of him, stepped down from the chief seat and came to Cao Cao.Bending down to hold up the bowl of wine in his hand, he said sincerely: "Captain Cao, I have offended you so much today. I hope Captain Cao will not take it to heart, can you tell me, do you have a plan in mind? "

Watching Cao Cao who took the wine bowl and drank it down in one gulp, Wang Yun ended the banquet ahead of time, and then sent all the adults out of the palace.In the end, only Cao Cao and Wang Yun were left, and they naturally went to the study to discuss business matters.It was the first time that Wang Yun took a stranger to his study, obviously he had completely trusted Cao Cao at this time.

After entering the study, Cao Cao glanced at a knife on the bookshelf.Although he could only see the scabbard, he could already feel the faint killing intent emanating from the knife.

Only Wang Yun and Cao Cao, Cao Cao naturally did not need to continue to hide.He told Wang Yun that there was only one purpose for bowing his knees and serving under Dong Zhuo's command.He hoped to gain Dong Zhuo's trust, and then waited for an opportunity to kill the old thief Dong.Previously, the timing was not ripe enough, but now it is just beginning to emerge.

There are very few people around Dong Zhuo who can use him, and Cao Cao came quickly to do things neatly.So Dong Zhuo left many things to Cao Cao, and deliberately asked Lu Bu to befriend Cao Cao.Firstly, I hope that Lu Bu can keep an eye on Cao Cao, and secondly, it is also to make Lu Bu look like Cao Cao.

At that time, Lu Bu had a good relationship with Cao Cao, but no matter how good it was, it was not as good as his relationship with Wang Yun.Lu Bu and Wang Yun have a very good personal relationship, if you have to use facts to prove how good they are.That's all I can say, if they go to the Fengyue place together, the two of them will definitely rush to pay the bill.

Moreover, Wang Yun understood Lu Bu's feelings very well, and he could understand Lu Bu's psychological activities when he was depressed.So he became Lu Bu's confidant, or the only friend who could speak his mind.

Cao Cao has a plan to kill Dong Zhuo, but he needs to borrow something from Wang Yun.Wang Yun asked Cao Cao that once he succeeded in assassinating Dong Zhuo, he would certainly not be able to escape Dong's residence.Once it fails, it will be even more difficult to escape. In this case, Cao Cao will be close to death.The risk factor is too high to do so, and it is really not suitable for use.

But Cao Cao said that as long as he can kill old thief Dong, he will die without regret.The late emperor appointed him as one of the eight captains of Xiyuan, so he had to be worthy of the late emperor's trust.Dong Zhuo harmed the royal family of the Han Dynasty, and he did not take the emperor seriously, so he allowed his soldiers to bring chaos to Luoyang.Turning a good city into a place full of complaints, countless people have been killed in just a few months.

This must be stopped immediately, and this situation cannot be allowed to continue.Yuan Shao and the others didn't dare to do anything to Dong Zhuo, so it's up to him, Cao Cao, to get rid of this traitor for the Han Dynasty.

Since Cao Cao is so determined, no matter what he borrows, Wang Yun will lend it to him.Even if he wanted Wang Yun's head, Wang Yun would agree to Cao Cao without hesitation.They are all loyal ministers, ready to die for the Han Dynasty at any time.It's just a mere death, so what a pity.

What Cao Cao wants to borrow is the family heirloom of the Wang family.It is said that Wang Yun's grandfather's great-grandfather got a treasured sword.It has a history of at least several hundred years, and it has always been a family heirloom of the Wang family and a symbol of the status of the head of the Wang family.Wang Yun is the head of this generation, so the Seven Star Sword is placed in Wang Yun's home.

That's right, it was the treasured sword that Cao Cao saw just now.The name of this sword is Seven Stars, it cuts iron like mud and cuts steel like paper. It was ranked among the top three short weapons at that time.The world's martial arts can only be fast, and the world's weapons cannot be broken by the front.With this precious sword, Cao Cao will be able to kill Old Bandit Dong in one fell swoop this time.

Before leaving, Wang Yun sent him outside the door and apologized to Cao Cao.He has wrongly blamed Cao Cao these days, and all the ministers have also wrongly blamed Cao Cao.But Cao Cao doesn't care, he just needs someone to know that he is not a villain.The reason for asking for this precious sword is naturally because of Dong Zhuo's damn sense of security.

It doesn't matter if you eat or sleep, and you don't even want to take off the gold silk software when you take a bath.Cao Cao had seen it with his own eyes, and someone came to assassinate Dong Zhuo.The timing was very good, at that time only Cao Cao was the closest to Dong Zhuo.The assassin stabbed Dong Zhuo's chest with a knife. At that time, Cao Cao wanted to make up for it, but Dong Zhuo was fine.

The dagger pierced the golden silk soft armor, but with such great force, it was unscathed, and it broke the dagger alive.Cao Cao saw this with his own eyes, so he knew that Dong Zhuo had a soft body armor.It is said that not to mention ordinary weapons, even sharper weapons cannot pierce through that layer of soft armor.

But the seven-star sword is an exception, and it is the nemesis of the golden silk soft armor.The sword used by others, the Seven Star Treasure Sword, can be cut in half with one stroke.The blade is unscathed, and there will be a buzzing sound when it is unsheathed.

All treasured swords have spirituality, and they will recognize the master.But this knife seemed to be nothing special, it was tied around the waist by Cao Cao, bid farewell to Wang Yun and got on the horse, Cao steered the horse back to the post station.

The plan is his, and he is the only one who executes it.He doesn't need to discuss with others when to do it, but he has to plan all preset situations in advance.

Carefully sailing for thousands of years, he must streamline every step and anticipate the most likely emergencies.Then preset countermeasures to ensure the smooth implementation of the entire plan.

Once the plan fails, Cao Cao is also prepared for the worst.He has already entrusted his family to Wang Yun, if he really can't come back this time.The family members were taken care of by Wang Yun, and he believed in Wang Yun who came from a famous family.Even if he died at the hands of Dong Zhuo, his family would be well taken care of.
