[Three Kingdoms] Burning incense and sacrificial wine

The moment the tray left her hand, Diao Chan's heart sank along with the tray.

It's over-

Just when Diao Chan was surrounded by despair, a vigorous and powerful hand suddenly grabbed the tray.

The falling heart stops with the pallet.

"Be careful."

A deep voice sounded from above her head, and Diao Chan was taken aback.

The man passed her, walked out of the flower bed without looking back, climbed up the steps, and came to the main entrance.

"Let's report inside, Lu Bu begs to see you."

The waiter standing outside the bamboo curtain responded in a low voice, opened the bamboo curtain and went in.After a while, the waiter lifted the curtain and invited Lu Bu in.

It wasn't until Lv Bu's figure disappeared behind the bamboo curtain that Diao Chan finally came to her senses. The heart in her chest was beating loudly, almost jumping out of her chest.

Not long after, the patrolling guards saw her and greeted her: "Miss Diaochan, why are you standing here?"

Diao Chan regained consciousness suddenly, calmed down her chaotic heartbeat, and smiled shyly at the guard.

"This is the roster that the housekeeper asked me to give to the Grand Master, and I am about to hand it over to the Grand Master."

"Then go quickly, don't miss the grand master's business."

Diao Chan agreed, walked up the steps gracefully, handed over the roster to the waiter at the door, and asked him to deliver it on the pretext of not daring to disturb the master's reception.

In fact, he didn't dare to enter, lest Dong Zhuo's flaws would be exposed because of his unyielding mood.

The waiter agreed, opened the bamboo curtain and entered the door,

Diao Chan stood under the bamboo curtain with her sleeves folded, trying to concentrate on listening to the movement in the house.

Her hands hidden in her sleeves were tightly packed, and cold sweat broke out.

The extreme panic prevented her from concentrating successfully, so she could only try to catch the most critical words.

"If the monster surnamed Ren is still alive, he can make good use of it."

"It's because I'm too angry... Who said that the calf genius doctor is too incompetent, he can't even cure my grandson's minor illness, what's the use of keeping him?" Dong Zhuo's voice seemed to form countless twisted vortexes, sucking Diao Chan's mind into it, Crushed into pieces, "I cooked him in a fit of anger."

"Mo Qi, Grand Master, there is still a way to remedy this matter. Confucianism only needs a name for this monster. After inquiring by Confucianism, this monster surnamed Ren is like Zhang Jiao and Zhang Bao, and is quite popular among the people. He has a reputation, especially among the untouchables, some people regard him as a god, if he is used well, maybe..."

The bamboo curtain made a sound, the waiter came out from the room, and said to Diao Chan: "The things have been handed over to the Grand Master, does Miss Diao Chan have any other orders?"

Diao Chan seemed to have been awakened, she lowered her head and forced her voice to stabilize: "Thank you, Mr. Xiaolang."

She left in a hurry, walked around the nine-curved corridor, came to the deserted lake and sat down blankly, staring blankly at the clear lake.

The reflection in the lake shattered round and round, blurring her vision together.Diao Chan's eyes widened suddenly, and she realized that tears were streaming down her face.

And it was her tears that shattered the reflection on the lake.

Looking around hastily, the exquisite Lin Yuan seemed like a paradise, but she felt chills all over.

Dazed, helpless, sad.These fragile emotions were gradually replaced by strong hatred.

She wanted to rush into Fang Dong Zhuo's room and fight him desperately, but another figure appeared in her mind, calling her reason back in time.

The person in the phantom, as before, warned her to be careful and not to be impulsive.

Diao Chan took a deep breath and responded in her heart: promise.

She wiped away her tears and stood up slowly.

"What are you doing here?"

Diao Chan was startled, and hurriedly lowered her head: "Little maid..."

"It's you?"

Diao Chan looked up in surprise, it was Lu Bu who came.

Thinking that it was Lu Bu who caught the tray for her just now, so that no one would notice her eavesdropping, she hurriedly leaned forward and saluted, thanking Lu Bu, "Thank you General just now."

Lu Bu stared at her red eyes, wanted to ask something, but didn't say it: "You send me out."

Diao Chan obeyed.

On the other side, in the post house, Cui Song was caught by the corner of his clothes from behind, turned his head quickly, and faced a magnified face fiercely.

The face was big and white, with two eyes staring like copper bells, steam from the nostrils, and a head of white miscellaneous hair fluttering in the wind.Yes, white hair.It was "搦照", the horse with a unique personality, that held him back from letting him go.

Only then did Cui Song remember that he hadn't seen "搦失" for several days because of his busy schedule.

"Falcon—" The horse spewed hot air from its nose, as if making a sound of dissatisfaction.

"You ran out by yourself?"

The "搦仙" that was supposed to be in the backyard actually appeared in the front yard. Could it be that it broke the rein and came to look for him?

"I'm sorry, I've been busy these days, so I haven't looked for you." Cui Song stroked the horse's mane, trying to comfort him, but was bitten by "搦失".

Cui Song: ...

Although "搦失" didn't bite very hard, but being bitten by a horse in public, this scene is a bit... strange?

Cui Song showed a handsome smile and tried to continue communicating: "Dear man, I know I was wrong, can you let go of my hand first?" As if it was welded to death, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't pull it out.

"搦白" kept looking at him with the whites of his eyes, and blew twice from time to time, as if he was complaining.One person and one horse stood in a stalemate for a long time, until Cui Song broke his tongue and made an agreement with it three chapters, promising not to commit another crime, then it reluctantly let go of the noble horse's mouth, expressing to let him go for the time being.

Cui Song coaxed "Tu Shi" back to the stable and returned to the room on the second floor.In the room, Gan Ji was cleaning with a rag.

Cui Song looked at Gan Jijiao's pretty side face, and deliberately stepped heavily.

Gan Ji quickly turned around and saluted him.

Cui Song asked, "Do you know that scholar named Jiang Zun?"

Gan Ji paused: "Scholar Jiang?" She said respectfully, "The scholar surnamed Jiang once asked me about the son, and it seemed that he had other plans for you. I couldn't avoid it, so I sent him a few words of nonsense. .”

It sounds flawless, but it is completely different from what Qiao Ji said.

Just based on the rhetoric of the two, people can't help but feel that Gan Ji is more credible.When she was stopped by Jiang Zun for questioning, Qiao Ji happened to see her, and she added embellishments and told him to listen.

Cui Song didn't say anything more, but he already understood certain things.

After lunch, Cui Song received a cloth bag.

When I opened it, there was a piece of bamboo lying inside.

A pattern resembling a leaf was engraved crookedly on the bamboo piece, which was his school badge and also the secret code of his agreement with Diao Chan.

Cui Song hurried to the foothold, opened the door and entered, Diao Chan had been waiting inside for a long time.

Looking at the numbness on the girl's face, Cui Songruo felt something: "...Sorry."

Diao Chan shook her head: "I want Dong Zhuo to die. Please help me, Young Master."

"Miss Ren..."

"It's not that you entrusted me, but I turned to you, so please don't worry about it," Diao Chan gritted his teeth, "Why can't my concubine do what you can do? As long as you teach me, I can help you solve problems. Please." help me."

Seeing the unshakable determination and hatred in Diao Chan's eyes, Cui Song took a deep breath: "Song understands."

"It's my concubine who made you difficult." Diao Chan bowed deeply, "I have met General Lu a few times. If you want to start with General Lu, you may be able to use a concubine."

"The matter of Lu Fengxian is not in a hurry now." Dong Zhuo's people have paid close attention to Lu Bu's side, and it is not appropriate to make any contact in the near future.What's more, Xun You's matter is a bureau, he needs to change his plan and start from the other side.

He told Diao Chan about his thoughts, which was also his divorce plan to Wang Yun.

You must know that Dong Zhuo is suspicious by nature. Since he won the power, he has been courteous and corporal on the surface, but he is violent and stubborn.

Since ancient times, the weakness of human nature has not changed: once there is a seed of doubt, it only needs a little spark to make it thrive.Therefore, with Dong Zhuo's character, it is actually very simple to make Dong Zhuo suspicious and no longer trust the people around him, a small introduction is enough.

Diao Chan once said: Ever since he killed the young emperor with poison, Dong Zhuo would use a silver needle to test the poison before every meal, as if he was afraid that he would suffer the same assassination.

However, the reason for the blackening of silver needles is oxidation or vulcanization.There was no purification technology in ancient times, and a small amount of sulfide was often mixed in the poison making process. The sulfur reacted with silver to produce silver sulfide, which turned the silver needles black.Therefore, to make the silver needles black, you don't need any poison at all, you only need some sulfur-containing items, such as egg yolk, to achieve the same effect.

Just imagine, if Dong Zhuo's trusted counselor personally offered soup, and the soup was "poisoned" by the silver needle, how would Dong Zhuo feel?

This is the starting point of the whole scheme, but it is not an easy task to implement successfully.

In terms of specific details, he discussed with Wang Yun for a long time and determined the final plan.

Diao Chan listened carefully to Cui Song's instructions, keeping every point in mind.

When parting, Cui Song suddenly called Diao Chan to stop.

"Be careful in everything, everything is based on your safety," Cui Song put his hand into his sleeve, took off the sleeve and handed it to her, "Also...it's windy outside, take this with you."

Diao Chan opened the sleeve, only to see a piece of fine, light and thin white silk hidden inside.

No wind today.However, she looked haggard and embarrassed, and she received countless strange gazes along the way. The grief in her heart and the embarrassment of being pointed at made her seem to be in the cold wind.This piece of expensive silk is exactly what she needs most right now.

Diao Chan thanked in a low voice, took out the silk, and wanted to return the sleeve to Cui Song, but was stopped by him.

"There are still a few ruler books in the interlayer of this pouch. If you have any difficulties, you can open them and have a look."

Diao Chan responded, put on the silk scarf, and left through the back door.

She firmly grasped the small cloth bag, walked dozens of steps, and looked back.

The cheeks eroded by tears were wrapped in soft white silk, which seemed to relieve a little pain.

"The concubine and the king...are people from two worlds after all."

She started again, and this time she didn't look back.

Others thought that Dong Zhuo's most important and important counselor was Li Ru, but she knew that the gray-clothed scribe had the greatest influence on Dong Zhuo.

Diao Chan made a decision in the blink of an eye and walked towards the most remote path in Taishi Mansion.

Although this gray-clothed scribe was usually elusive and rarely appeared in front of people, but today Dong Zhuo was having a banquet with his cronies in the manor. She secretly checked the roster, and there was an unfamiliar name on the list of counselors, maybe it was that gray-clothed scribe.

Because she was not completely sure, she never told Cui Song, but secretly kept the name in her heart.

——Xi Huan, whose character is Zhicai.

It was this person that she had to deal with.
