[Three Kingdoms] Heroine Cultivation Manual

Qin Chu woke up on time. As soon as the carriage slowed down, she consciously opened her eyes.

There were other nobles' chariots and horses waiting in front of the Sikong Mansion, Qin Chu hesitated for a moment, but still stayed on his seat, raising his hand to touch the bun to confirm whether his appearance was decent.

"A Chinese gown with hair in a bun is really cumbersome." She thought to herself.

Since Dong Zhuo held a big banquet, it was inevitable to put on a show, and the court was controlled by the gentry at this time, so of course she had to follow the rules of the gentry.

Xun Yu pressed her lightly first, and with the other hand, he dexterously pulled out the silver hairpin from her bun, and tightened it evenly, before saying:

"All right, my lord."

...It is simply better than Qin Miao.

She had just woken up and probably couldn't turn the corner. She touched the hairpin and didn't know what to say for a while, so she nodded to Xun Yu and said dryly:

"Thank you Wen Ruo, let's go."

After getting out of the carriage, Qin Chu stepped forward side by side with him, and looked around calmly, only to find that the Sikong Mansion had already been surrounded by Dong Zhuo's soldiers layer upon layer.

Of the [-] elite soldiers that Dong Zhuo brought from the northwest, at least [-] are gathered at the mansion. Even under the wall, there are soldiers from Liangzhou standing with halberds. Their eyes are bright and their faces are solemn, which can deter some timid people from the Han clan. civil servants.

—Like the one behind you.

It was a short, middle-aged man, with a thin body wearing a dark purple-gray coat that was not old. He had a sad face, the bags under his eyes almost reached his cheekbones, and his lips were tightly pressed. I'm so nervous.

Qin Chu squinted his eyes, and from the corner of his eye, he saw the seal ribbon on his waist——the copper seal yellow ribbon, which means that the official rank is between [-] and [-] stone, and he is a small official.

Under the watchful eyes of Xiliang soldiers, this person tremblingly took out the invitation card from his sleeve pocket and handed it over, then tremblingly took it back, and walked into the courtyard with a white face.

There were so many people around that it was inconvenient to discuss verbally, so Qin Chu leaned closer to Xun Yu, held his wrist, and signaled him to open his hand.

Her index finger was rounded, and she wrote stroke by stroke on Xun Yu's dry and warm palm:

"Who?"

"Tai, Zhu, Cheng, Chen Xing (xing) Shi." Across the sleeves of his toga, Xun Yu also slowly wrote on Qin Chu's palm.

Qin Chu's perception of touch is not very keen, so he can only memorize the strokes and reproduce them in his mind, so his reaction is half a beat slower, and it takes a while to react.

Tai Zhucheng was the adjutant in charge of sacrifices in the Eastern Han Dynasty.In the past few years, there have been severe droughts and severe floods. In addition to this, there are locust plagues and epidemics. There are constant uprisings in various places, and there are natural and man-made disasters everywhere. ah.

The other is the name.After the reorganization of Wang Mang, the Han Dynasty used to honor single names. Although there were maverick princes and nobles who chose two-character names, most of them still used single names.Chen Xingshi was dressed in shabby clothes, looked sad, and had a low official position. He presumably was the one who "took his double-character name because of bad luck".

In her heart, she was very close to this person, and in reality it was only a few steps away.Qin Chu blinked, and suddenly said in a low voice, "He's looking at me."

Xun Yu lowered his head and smiled at her, the meaning was very clear: the lord is different, attention is inevitable.

Qin Chu: "..."

What she said was true, but her intuition of martial arts was still engraved on her body, and she always felt...that Chen Xingshi looked at her with something else in his eyes.

However, now is not the time to pursue this matter. The Sikong mansion invited more than one young concubine, Zhu Cheng. Qin Chu took two steps forward and saw an acquaintance again, so he quickly forgot about Chen Xingshi.

It was Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.

Cao Cao noticed her almost at the same time, stopped immediately, and looked back at Qin Chu walking up.Captain Dian Jun saluted: "Master of the Pavilion."

Qin Chu replied: "Captain Cao, Captain Yuan."

Only then did Yuan Shao greet her and Xun Yu.

Although he was also wearing a formal summer yellow wide-sleeved deep shirt today, his complexion was very bad. Presumably he realized that he made a mistake during the negotiation and made it easier for Dong Zhuo, and he still feels unhappy.

In contrast, Cao Cao's mentality was not bad, and he smiled at Qin Chu: "The guards in Grand Master Dong's residence are really tight, right?"

Although there was no one around for a few hundred meters, there was no guarantee that there would be no Dong Zhuo's eyeliner. Even if Cao Cao wanted to scold, he didn't dare to really speak up, so he had to exchange pleasantries with Qin Chu.

Qin Chu responded coolly: "As expected of a grand master, there is no other in this world."

Yuan Shao glanced at her, probably feeling her sarcasm, his face paled.Although he had a lot of worries, he hadn't suffered any setbacks after all. He felt unhappy after being put together by Dong Zhuo, so he was naturally happy to hear others scold Dong.

He opened his mouth, and just about to say something, he suddenly closed his mouth again.Qin Chu looked over, and it turned out that it was Chen Xingshi who walked over tremblingly.

Yuan Shao also believed in ghosts and gods, but in some respects he was not too different from his stupid younger brother, for example, they both boasted of being noble, and looked down on the batch of people who prayed to gods and ghosts in Taichang Temple.

Seeing Chen Xingshi approaching, he raised his head slightly again immediately, greeted Qin Chuxunyu, and only excused that he had something to do, then walked to the banquet hall without hesitation, leaving Cao Cao alone to look at her.

Although Yuan Shao's attitude was a bit arrogant, his etiquette was taught by a famous family, and it was not bad at all. Qin Chu was not too angry because of this, and smiled at Cao Cao: "It's almost time, Captain Cao, please."

Cao Cao then walked on the other side of her, and when he was about to reach the banquet hall, he suddenly asked, "Is the pavilion master and Chen Taizhu old?"

"No," Qin Chu replied, "Maybe there is something you want from me."

She didn't say that Chen Xingshi might have evil intentions, but she really didn't think it was necessary.As soon as I stretched out my hand, this frail Tai Zhucheng probably broke his arm. What is he trying to do?

Cao Cao didn't care, nodded, and entered the banquet hall with the two of them, and took their seats.

In the Han Dynasty, the position of Qin Chu belonged to the superior, and Xun Yu sat upright on her left, without looking sideways, and looked elegant, really wanting to engrave "bowenyueli" into his bones.

However, Qin Chu didn't take a second look.All her eyes fell on the guards in the banquet hall.

The Xiliang army guarding the gate is already an elite soldier, and those in the hall... are the elite of the elite.She sharply noticed a young general who was sitting next to Dong Zhuo's seat. His spine and waist were extremely straight, which seemed interesting.

Dong Zhuo's blatant ambition could not be hidden at last. Although the banquet hall was big enough, he arranged a soldier to guard it every three steps.

Most of the officials present realized this.Qin Chu glanced across the audience inadvertently, and didn't see Fu Wan, so he felt a little relieved.

The third brother, Fu Jun, sat under Yuan Shu's command. They were both humble and arrogant, with ugly expressions; Cao Cao and Yuan Shao sat very close to each other, with serious expressions, and communicated with their eyes and a few hand gestures.

Grand Tutor Yuan Kai was the closest to Dong Zhuo, with no expression on his face, he kept his head down and poured wine without saying a word.

A little farther away, Ding Yuan could still be seen. His face was a little angry, and he couldn't stop touching his waist. It was just that he was too far away, and Qin Chu couldn't see clearly whether he was carrying a weapon privately.

The last one is Chen Xingshi.This person was already very sad and sick, and he was invited to Dong Zhuo's residence. When he encountered such a mess, he saw that there were guards all around him, and his face became even more gloomy, as if mourning.

Qin Chu looked at him and almost couldn't laugh out loud.

Dong Zhuo didn't notice the terrible atmosphere, or didn't care at all. He looked at the hundreds of officials sitting on the table with satisfaction, nodded heartily, raised his hand and greeted with a smile in the first place:

"Everyone, please drink!"

He drank the sake, put the copper jue back with a "snap", clapped his hands, and saw silk and bamboo orchestras, dancing shirts and singing fans rushing in, lined up in the open space left by the two rows of food tables. Open, Dong Zhuo nodded, and Yan Ge Zhao Wu began.

Behind him is the iron-blooded Xiliang soldier, and in front of him is a soft and delicate dancer in red makeup. Apart from Dong Zhuo's vassals who have defected long ago, there are also a few careless foes. Not many people really have the heart to experience the so-called banquet. The joy of intoxication.

Thinking about it, Dong Zhuo didn't intend to make them happy either.

"..."

Qin Chu held up the cup of wine expressionlessly, using the gesture of drinking to cover up his indifference.

These women's postures are light and graceful, and their dance steps are graceful, and they are all beautiful.

But she felt sick to her stomach.

Since she became a general, she has never seen a dancing woman at a banquet.

Women from aristocratic families in the Eastern Han Dynasty would be regarded as political bargaining chips and traded for sale, but the pretty commoner women would be even more deplorable.

At least [-]% of the soldiers in the southern battalion were women. The women's army of Jincheng Qinchu was so famous that even the Luoyang gentry had heard of it.Whether Dong Zhuo entertained all the officials and sent singing and dancing actors, whether it was intentional or unintentional, it was all in the face of Qin Chu.

Xun Yu also frowned.Instead of looking up at the dancing young girls, he looked at Qin Chu worriedly.He knew that the protagonist was violent on some matters.

Qin Chu's expression was cold.It's not that she can't have a seizure, if she wants to, she can pull out the hairpin and stab Dong Zhuo now. After that, Luoyang will remain calm, and the Eastern Han Dynasty will continue to survive.

But that's not enough.

She lay dormant for several days, taking pains to prepare for this day, waiting for Dong Zhuo to arouse the anger of the public, so that she could start slaying the dragon herself.

The qin, se, yu, and sheng were playing the melodious Yuefu, which was mixed with the sound of clinking cups and cups. There were dozens of civil and military officials who were attracted by Dong Zhuo, and they toasted and chatted with the people around them, which barely heated up the atmosphere. .

Finally, after drinking for three rounds, some of the officials gradually relaxed, and there were not a few who became more tense.Dong Zhuo put down the copper wine cup, took the towel handed over by the maidservant, wiped his hands, and sat up straight.

He coughed lightly, cleared his throat, the orchestral sound stopped immediately, and the conversation around him gradually became smaller and then disappeared.

"Inviting all the officials here today, I want to discuss a major matter with you—"

Dong Zhuo got up slowly as he spoke, his right hand was already on the hilt of the sword at his waist.He forbade civil and military officials to wear controlled knives, but he swaggered and held a banquet with a sword, which really carried out the double standard to the fullest.

I saw him smiling slightly, and his face, which was blown extremely rough by the bitter wind in the northwest, showed law lines, and there was a complacent expression of "is bound to win" on his toad-like face.Dong Zhuo said:

"Today the world is dark and weak, and it is of no benefit to the country, the country, and the temples and ancestral halls; after thinking about it, I am determined to follow the example of Yi Yin and Huo Guang, abolishing the emperor as the Hongnong king, and making Chenliu the emperor."*

Grand Tutor Yuan Kai trembled violently with his right hand holding the wine bottle; Yuan Shao slowly widened his eyes, it was the first time he lost his composure in front of others; Cao Cao bowed his head and remained silent, as if thinking.

Dong Zhuo was unmoved, and the silver sword at his waist was suddenly drawn out, and with a flash of cold light, the frightened and angry faces of the banquet people were faithfully reflected, like a ridiculous romantic Western oil painting.

"—Anyone who disobeys, beheaded!"
