Time flies, and half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

At this moment, in front of Wang Yun's Mansion, there were lights and colorful decorations, and carriages lined up one after another. Officials who were rarely seen in normal times got out of the cars one by one, complimented each other and walked into Situ Mansion. It was very lively. It was a dark night.

Decorated with little lights.

"Hey, Mr. Li, you are here too."

"Haha, how dare Mr. Li not come to Situ Gong's birthday party?"

Yes, tonight is Wang Yun's birthday.

The hall was full of dignitaries. At this time, Ji Shu was coming in and out during the banquet, serving dishes to the adults.

"Today is my birthday, and all my colleagues can come to my place to drink. I am really proud of my appearance. I am very happy! I am very lucky! Come on, everyone, drink up this cup!" Wang Yun, with a red face on the main seat, said to everyone.

People raise their glasses.

Seeing Mr. Situ speak, an unknown official immediately stood up and made a toast: "Come, let us wish Mr. Situ as blessed as the East Sea and as long as the Southern Mountains!"

"I wish Mr. Situ that he will be as blessed as the East Sea and live as long as the Southern Mountains!" everyone said in unison.

Are these all royalists in the DPRK?

While the rich wine and meat smell, the road with frozen bone.

Scenes from the past reminded Ji Shu of this sentence.

Ji Shu knew that this was not Wang Yun's fault, but in the back hall, as he watched the crowd of people drinking wine and drinking, all he felt was hypocrisy and indifference.

Of course, no one cares what a boy thinks.

Everyone got excited about drinking and soon became red-faced.

After drinking for a few rounds, everyone was already a little tipsy. Suddenly, they heard a faint cry. When they looked carefully, they turned out to be Wang Yun.

Everyone was confused for a moment, what happened to Situ?

Uneasiness gradually came to everyone's mind. Everyone was confused and looked around, but no one asked for a while.

However, some things must be done by someone. Soon, someone finally couldn't bear the silence. A bearded official asked hesitantly: "Mr. Situ, why are you crying on this happy birthday?"

Wang Yun seemed drunk but not drunk, and quickly wiped his tears with his sleeves.

However, Ji Shu felt that Wang Yun was quietly examining the ministers.

After a pause, Wang Yun was heard choking and saying: "I just recalled how great our ancestors were when they destroyed the powerful Qin and the great Chu. Only then did we have the 400-year-old foundation of this great Han Dynasty."

"Now, first there was the Yellow Turban Rebellion, which caused the world to be in turmoil, and then there were ten ministers who caused chaos and caused trouble in the palace. The court finally settled down, but it didn't want the powerful ministers to be in power, and the country was in danger. I was so sad for a while that I couldn't help crying."

As soon as the voice fell, all the officials in the hall looked at each other in shock.

The powerful minister is in power? Who else but Dong Zhuo? It seems that Situ is drunk!

Although everyone hoped that the emperor could regain the glory of the Han Dynasty, no one dared to confront Dong Zhuo because Dong Zhuo had soldiers in his hands. The banquet suddenly fell silent, as if there was a visible cold air flowing around.

Who dares to speak?

It's not that it never happened, but those who dared to speak have been killed by Dong Zhuo.

A strange emotion slowly spread. Everyone was sad, but even more uneasy.

I don’t know who started to hide his face and cry, and then the whole hall burst into tears.

What a grand crying scene! To mediocre people, Wang Yun made a drunken gaffe. But to people with lofty ideals, Wang Yun is undoubtedly sending a signal - who can help me put things right?

Seeing all the old and young men in the hall crying bitterly, Ji Shu felt that it was really disturbing!

"Haha" a burst of laughter seemed so harsh at this time, and finally the crying stopped.

"The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, if they cry from night to dawn, and from dawn to night, can they cry Dong Zhuo to death?" A man sitting in the corner was laughing at the table.

Wang Yun's drunken eyes narrowed slightly.

It should be Cao Cao.

Ji Shu took a closer look and found that Cao Cao was slightly short in stature, well-dressed and elegant, although he could not be said to be handsome.

"You are also receiving a salary from the imperial court and don't want to serve the country. Why are you laughing?" One person slapped the table and shouted angrily.

Isn't this Dong Zhuo's recent follower? He's here too?

Everyone finally avoided the sensitive topic, but was pulled back by Cao Cao. They were annoyed. Although they did not dare to speak openly, they glared a few times. Cao Cao went to report Dong Zhuo but failed, so everyone looked at Cao Cao with a sneer.

"The ministers in the hall have no plan to kill Dong Zhuo, so they can only hide their faces here and cry. Isn't it ridiculous!" Facing the ministers in the hall, Cao Cao was not afraid and asked with a smile.

Wang Yun seemed to have come to his senses at this time, and was furious: "Ignorant fool, how dare you laugh at the minister here, come and expel this guy from the house."

Cao Cao stood up, held up his hands and said proudly: "I won't bother Sir Situ. Cao will go on his own. He doesn't want to sit with a bunch of mourning and rotten scholars."

Ji Shu saw that the housekeeper beside Wang Yun had disappeared at some point.

After this, everyone stopped crying, Situ seemed to have sobered up, and kept silent about the matter, just gossiping about the situation. The banquet soon became lively again, and the guests of honor and guests were enjoying themselves.

The little conflict during the dinner seemed to be just a small episode?

······

Wang family, study room.

After a long time, the birthday banquet was finally over. Wang Yun returned to the study. When he saw Cao Cao, he smiled and said: "During the banquet, Meng De dared to laugh at the whole hall. The ministers had no plan to kill Dong Zhuo. Could it be that he had a good plan?"

Cao Cao said sternly: "That's right. Cao was humble and used himself to do great things, but in fact he was seeking the opportunity to get close to him. Now he has gained Dong Zhuo's trust. It's a pity that Dong Zhuo is cautious by nature and wears a soft armor with him. It is difficult to penetrate with swords and guns, and he is also unskilled.

Martial arts are difficult to master. I heard that Situ Zu passed down a seven-star sword that can cut iron like clay. Cao wanted to borrow it. Unfortunately, he couldn't find any connections for a while. This time he took advantage of the banquet to come here just for the seven-star sword.

Come on, if you can kill Dong Zhuo with one blow, you will have no regrets even if you die!"

Wang Yun shook his head slightly and smiled bitterly, grabbed Cao Cao's hand, and pulled him to sit down: "All the officials in the hall do not understand my intention. I don't think Meng Decai has the heart to save the country and endures the humiliation!"

"The big man can be saved!" The old man was excited, his eyes turned red, and he was about to bow down to Cao Cao on the spot, "Meng is virtuous and righteous, please accept my bow!"

Cao Cao hurriedly supported him.

Wang Yun laughed and cried, and sighed: "It's a pity that we couldn't know heroes like Meng De earlier!"

At this time, Cao Cao smiled deeply and said: "It doesn't matter, the history books will record Cao's name after this incident."

Wang Yun sighed again: "Meng is virtuous and righteous!"

After saying this, he took the knife and gave it to him.

Cao Cao gently pulled out the sword and tried it. He couldn't help but praise him, and then said goodbye immediately: "Dong Zhuo has many eyes and ears. Cao Cao will stay here soon. Otherwise, if Dong Zhuo becomes suspicious, it will be difficult to do anything."

Wang Yun bowed to see him off.

······

Ji Shu said nothing as he watched Cao Cao walk out of the back door.

He thought a lot, maybe this was an opportunity to kill Dong Zhuo and change the fate of Situ Mansion.

But he thought further, because he knew that Cao Cao failed in the end and escaped from the capital.

What does this mean? Since he could still escape from the capital, Cao Cao must have given up at the last moment and did not risk his life. Otherwise, how could he escape from the Prime Minister's Mansion where Lu Bu was in charge and the heavily guarded capital?

If you tell Wang Yun, will he believe it? He is afraid that Ji Shu will be arrested immediately as a spy.

Ji Shu felt that Wang Yun was mistaken. Cao Cao was not the kind of martyr who did not hesitate to take his own life. As Xu Shao said, he was "a hero in troubled times."
