Don't let go of the green mountains, and keep your roots in the broken rocks. ---------"Bamboo and Stone" by Zheng Xie of the Qing Dynasty
It is said that Cai Wenji was moved by Chen Long's poem. It was a poem of compassion and compassion that made her burst into tears after reading it. Chen Long's heart was filled with excitement, and the wine glass in his hand trembled slightly, only then did he realize how wise Cai Wenji was.
In Cai Yan's heart, it was difficult to recover from the sadness for a while. He looked ahead with empty tearful eyes, unaware of the expressions of the people around him. Suddenly, a few isolated bursts of applause rang out from the crowd downstairs, and then the applause became enthusiastic. Finally, Dong Zhuo, Jia Xu and others also applauded to show their approval. Seeing that Cai Yan was still bowing his head and saying nothing, Cai Yong stood up and thanked the Grand Master and everyone on behalf of his daughter.
Seeing that the atmosphere was tense, Dong Zhuo lost some of his interest. He nodded and called Lu Bu: "Sir, I see it's past noon. Isn't there something else going on in the palace?" Lu Bu agreed and ordered the guards to prepare the carriage. Cai Yong hurriedly came over to serve Dong Zhuo. building. Everyone on the second floor stood up to see him off. Dong Zhuo said, "Uncle, it was a great event today. Unfortunately, I have something else to do. You continue." After saying that, he went downstairs without looking back. He secretly cursed a girl, what are you worrying about? The world!
Lu Bu's tall figure, riding on a red rabbit horse, holding the double-edged Fangtian Huaji that never left his body, disappeared with Dong Zhuo's chariot and horse behind the crowd of congratulatory people. Chen Long was on the second floor, staring at Dong Zhuo's carriage in the distance. He saw that it was very tightly guarded. Lu Bu, Niu Fu, Dong Yue, Li Su, Duan Xuan and others surrounded the carriage. Even if Chen Long personally led the special forces to carry out the assassination, I'm afraid it would be impossible. Not easy to get. Moreover, Lu Bu's martial arts skills are unfathomable. He cannot fight an unprepared battle and let the special forces soldiers die easily.
Chen Long was staring intently at Dong Zhuo's car and horse as they drove away, completely unaware that anyone was approaching him. The man coughed lightly, and Chen Long lowered his eyes and turned his head as if nothing had happened, hiding his concentration on Dong Zhuo. Seeing that the visitor had slightly gray hair, he was about fifty years old, with a slender body, a slender face, delicate eyebrows, five long beards, a high-end court dress, and a purple ribbon with gold rim around his waist. He couldn't help but respect him and bowed to salute. He said: "Who is a high official in the court, your Excellency? I'm sorry for Bai Hu's blindness."
The man held a glass of wine in his hand, smiled slightly, and said in the manner of an elder: "I am Wang Yun, courtesy name is Master, and I occupy the position of Situ." Chen Long was overjoyed in his heart, and said with surprise on the surface: "It turns out to be Wang Situ, I am Long time admirer! Sorry, disrespectful!" He said and raised his glass in a toast.
Wang Yun calmly drank the wine in the cup and said slowly: "The poem written by General Baihu just now is admirable for his concern for the country and the people. If you don't give up, I would like to invite General Baihu to be a guest under my house. Can you give me a favor?"
Chen Long said hurriedly: "Situ has orders, how dare I disobey him. I traveled all the way from Jiangnan to Kyoto. I saw many joys and sorrows along the way, and then I felt something about it and got a few poems in my heart. Unexpectedly, I moved Situ today, which shows that Situ is worried The concern for the country and the people is much stronger than that of Yan Mouke."
Wang Yun was born in a wealthy family of officials. He was proud and disdainful of being associated with lower officials. But something he was planning recently forced him to find all the capable helpers. During today's poetry meeting, Chen Long's poems caught Wang Yun's attention. Yan Baihu was able to recite these poems openly and righteously. He was very human and worthy of Wang Yun's friendship.
The light brain in Chen Long's mind is also quickly searching Wang Yun's life, looking for clues that can gain Wang Yun's trust. Wang Yun was born in a prominent family in Shanxi. He was talented and energetic since childhood. When he grew up, he determined not only to inherit and carry forward the traditions of his father's generation, but also to worry about the country and benefit the Eastern Han Dynasty society.
Therefore, he was not infatuated with luxurious life and comfortable enjoyment. Instead, he studied poetry and classics diligently, and finally became a talented and knowledgeable scholar. Scholars from far and near looked upon him with admiration. Wang Yun also regarded Wei Qing and Huo Qubing as his idols, insisted on practicing martial arts to strengthen his body, and practiced martial arts diligently and diligently. Within a few years, Wang Yun grew into an all-rounder who was proficient in both literature, Taoism and military strategy. Because he was born into an upper-class noble family, Wang Yun often followed his fathers in officialdom and made friends with many famous people. Moreover, Wang Yun is more willing to contact the lower class people, because this way he can get closer to life, experience life, and accumulate rich experience in governing the world.
During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Wang Yun was appointed by the imperial court as the governor of Yuzhou. He enlisted Shang Shuang, Kong Rong and other famous figures to serve as Wang Yun's office. He led heavy troops to attack the Yellow Turban Army and achieved many meritorious deeds. He collaborated with the then Zuo Zhonglang General Huangfu Song. , You Zhonglang will be as famous as Zhu Jun. However, because Wang Yun exposed Zhang Rang's collusion with the Yellow Turban Army, he was ruthlessly retaliated by Zhang Rang. He found an excuse to arrest Wang Yun and imprison him. Unexpectedly, Wang Yun's fate was good, and he was pardoned just in time for the imperial court's amnesty. He was acquitted and released, and was reinstated as governor. original position. However, Zhang Rang, who was determined to retaliate, did not give up. Within ten days, he convicted Wang Yun on another "unfounded" charge, and Wang Yun was imprisoned again.
After General He Jin, Lieutenant Yuan Wei, Situ Yang Ci and others tried their best to rescue him, Wang Yun was finally acquitted and released. Wang Yun changed his name and surname, left the capital Luoyang, and traveled between Hanoi and Chenliu until Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty passed away, and Wang Yun hurried to Luoyang to mourn. At this time, the situation in the court was extremely chaotic, and the power of the foreign relatives headed by He Jin increased greatly. As soon as Wang Yun arrived in Luoyang, He Jin urgently summoned him and appointed him as a minister. Later, the situation changed suddenly. He Jin was ambushed and died. Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu and others led troops to kill the eunuchs. Dong Zhuo killed Zhang Rang, Duan Gua and others, and took the young emperor Liu Bian and Chen Liu Wang Liu Xie hostage. Wang Yun and Shangshu Lu Zhi also protected the young emperor back to the palace. The next day, Dong Zhuo wanted to kill Queen He, but Chen Long rescued Queen He and the young emperor. Dong Zhuo announced that he would abolish the young emperor of the Han Dynasty and establish Liu Xie, the new emperor of the Han Dynasty. Wang Yun was Become a Situ to this day.
At this moment, there were two emperors, the old and the new, in Luoyang and Chang'an. Chen Long could not guess which emperor Wang Yun was loyal to. Dong Zhuo abolished the old and established the new, planted party members, cultivated cronies, unified military power, and controlled the court, nakedly showing his greed for power. Wang Yun had always remained calm, followed the trend, and tried his best to cater to Dong Zhuo; sometimes he did not hesitate to flatter him in order to gain Dong Zhuo's trust. Only Chen Long knew that all this was an illusion.
The moment Wang Yun's chain plan was launched, Dong Zhuo was already destined to die under Lu Bu's big halberd. The most intriguing thing is that after Wang Yun kills Dong Zhuo, will he swear allegiance to the Young Emperor of Han? What does he think of Chen Long beside the Young Emperor of Han? Will he think that Chen Long is another Dong Zhuo?
The whole search process only occurred in Chen Long's mind for a moment. Remembering that he was still playing the role of Yan Baihu, Chen Long smiled and said to Wang Yun: "Wang Situ, I heard that you hold banquets at home, and you often meet with Sili Colonel Huang Wan, Shangshu Zheng Gongye, and Zhi Gongye. Jinwushi Sun Rui and others are together, these are all people I have admired for a long time, next time I visit Situ's house, can I invite them to join us?"
Chen Long said this because he didn't want to go around the bush and suspect each other, so he simply pointed out that Wang Yun, Shi Sunrui and other high-ranking officials and generals were planning to kill Dong Zhuo. Chen Long is the person who is most sure of Wang Yun's thoughts. The only obstacle is how to make Wang Yun completely believe in him.
When Wang Yun heard this, he almost dropped his wine glass on the ground, pretended to put it on the table, and murmured: "General Baihu just went north, how do you know the names of the guests at my banquet?" His words became more serious, as if he was frightened by Chen Long. broken.
Chen Long smiled softly and said: "Situ, there is no need to be nervous. My thoughts are the same as Situ's. I also know that Situ is brewing a honey trap to eliminate someone. If I didn't have the same ideas as Situ, Situ would have been exterminated long ago. Yes. If Situ doesn't believe it, he can report it to Dong Zhuo, but the situation is urgent, so please think twice before acting." He said and bowed.
Wang Yun couldn't hide the shock in his heart. He had never mentioned his thoughts to anyone. Why did the person in front of him seem to understand everything? After taking a deep look at Chen Long, he didn't know whether to trust the rough man opposite him, so he walked back to his seat in a state of confusion, forgetting to even take the wine glass.
Chen Long looked at the lost Wang Yun, chuckled, and was about to take his seat when suddenly a delicate voice behind him sounded: "General Baihu, please invite Rong Wenji to propose a toast in person to thank the general for his gift of poetry."
