Chapter 4: The Seven-Star Sword

"The sound of the piano surrounds the wall, and it doesn't stop for three days, and it doesn't deceive me sincerely." After the song of Diao Chan in the pavilion ended, Han Lie stroked his palm and praised softly.

"I've seen the third brother." The sable cicada rises leisurely, giving people a sense of tranquility and quietness.

"Little sister doesn't need to be polite." Wang Ding smiled, and hurriedly pointed to Han Lie beside him and said, "Little sister, this is Han Gongzi, who is a friend of my family and the brother of the third brother. ”

"I've seen Han Gongzi." Diao Chan, who is dressed in a long green dress, has a slender and slender physique, and a delicate and soft appearance, which is really a touching and touching disaster for the country.

"Hearing the girl's moving piano sound, I am disturbed abruptly, and I hope the girl will not blame." Facing this famous historical beauty, Han Lie returned the salute, his eyes swept over the other party's face, the twenty-eight-year-old Diao Chan is in the prime of life, with skin like snow, beautiful face, white gooseneck, and eyebrows, such a delicate beauty can be said to be the only one seen in Han Lie's life.

But what surprised Han Lie was that Diao Chan was not only beautiful, but also had a pair of slender jade hands, like soft palms, and the ten fingers were slender and like condensation, so it was not surprising that with such a pair of slender hands, he could play such a beautiful and refined piano sound.

For Wang Ding to come to meet with a strange man in the middle of the night, although Diao Chan was calm and calm on the surface, she was still slightly unhappy in her heart, but when she saluted, her beautiful eyes raised lightly, and when she saw Han Lie's appearance, she couldn't help but stare at the other party.

Although his face was calm, Diao Chan secretly whispered in his heart: "This Han Gongzi, is it really a man's body?" So handsome? ”

"Haha......" Wang Ding has been observing Diao Chan's actions, and when he saw Diao Chan, he couldn't help but attract his attention, and immediately laughed loudly: "How is my little sister, how does my friend's beauty compare to you?" ”

Seeing that Wang Ding was making fun of his appearance again, Han Lie glared at Wang Ding with disdain, and corrected: "Rivet, I'm telling you again, brother, this is called Junyi, not beauty, if there is a next time, don't blame someone for turning his face." ”

"Han Gongzi is handsome and extraordinary, and the ancient Song Yu may not be able to compare." Diao Chan saw Wang Ding snickering beside him, so he had to flatter, although it was flattery, but Diao Chan still thought to himself in his heart: I'm afraid that Song Yu in Chu State may not be as beautiful and enchanting as this Han Gongzi.

Beautiful and enchanting is completely the first adjective that Diao Chan thought of when he saw Han Lie's face, it was really Han Lie's face was too handsome, and he also had double sword eyebrows and phoenix eyes, a man looks like this, beauty is beautiful, but it is too enchanting.

"It's what I'm saying, it's what I'm saying, it's still my little sister who will praise people." Wang Ding's smiling face was about to twitch.

"The little sister made a certain Song Yu, could it be that Xi Shi prides herself on it?" Han Lie remembered the deeds left by Diao Chan in history, and then opened his mouth to ask rhetorically.

"Xi Shi was born in a world of great controversy, making such a choice, I am afraid that it is not what I want, if the little sister has a choice, I hope that one person's heart, the white head will not be separated." Diao Chan sighed faintly, not only sympathizing with the ups and downs of Xi Shi's fate, but also being afraid of his own fate.

Obviously, this Lanxinhui woman has already understood the meaning of Wang Yun raising herself in the deep boudoir.

From her words, Han Lie finally realized why there was a sense of loneliness when he saw the other party's back just now, obviously this was Diao Chan's true intention, as for the sweetness and carefree expression in her piano sound, it was just an illusion.

"It's not early, so I won't disturb my little sister's purity." Han Lie glanced at the other party deeply, and when he turned around, he said slowly: "Although Xi Shi has paid, he has also gained, I believe that as long as he pays, he will be rewarded." ”

Looking at Han Lie, who was fluttering in the green shirt, as if he was flying away, Diao Chan always had a feeling of being spied on in his heart.

As soon as he walked out of the inner courtyard, he saw Wang Yun throwing his sleeves in with an angry face.

"Daddy." When Wang Ding saw Wang Yun returning, he stood aside a little stiffly.

"Shibo, I am angry and hurt, since I have gone home, it is better to put down the affairs of the court for the time being." Han Lie stepped forward and saluted with relief.

"Well, have you had dinner?" Wang Yun sat on the ground with his brows furrowed, stretched out his hand to take the hot tea soup handed by his subordinates, took a sip, and said: "Dong Zhuo Pifu, it is really too deceitful, today he treated the imperial history to disturb the lord but entered Dong Zhuo ****, and was stabbed to death by his sword in the court. ”

In the face of Wang Yun's indignation, Wang Ding seemed a little anxious, and tried to dissuade him several times, but he didn't dare to speak.

"Thanks to Shi Boqi's generous treatment, if there is a sending, the little nephew will never refuse." Han Lie thought about it, stepped forward, and whispered in Wang Yun's ear: "I heard that Shibo has a treasure knife in his hand, can he borrow it from his little nephew as a weapon to assassinate Dong Thief." ”

"No, don't ......" Wang Yun was shocked when he heard this, and quickly shook his head.

"Shibo, I heard that Dong Thief has restored the names of Chen Fan, Dou Wu and other party members in order to buy people's hearts, and awarded the official position ......of heir, my grandfather can be said to have suffered from it, why don't Shi Bo ask for an order to restore his reputation, and then introduce his little nephew to Dong Thief" Han Lie finished speaking, but Wang Yun interrupted: "Ding'er, it's not too early, you go down to rest first." ”

"Whoa!" Although Wang Ding is frivolous, he is not stupid, and he will retreat with interest.

"Virtuous nephew, please go to the study and talk about it." Re-seated in the study, Wang Yun said: "Although Dong Thief is brutal, he is not powerless, this person is known as the Liangzhou Flying Bear, and he has a lot of kung fu in his hands, and he is guarded by Lu Bu, if you want to succeed in the assassination, you must hit it with one blow, otherwise not only will it not be successful, but your life will be lost." ”

"What Shibo said is very true, before the assassination, you must grasp the way to advance and retreat, and then find the right opportunity to achieve it with one blow." Han Lie's proposal to assassinate Dong Zhuo was naturally not a momentary enthusiasm, but after some careful consideration, although he had not yet decided what to do in the future, but at present, Luoyang is in a situation, and it is the people's desire to ask Dong for him, and his so-called assassination does not have to be successful, but as long as it is done.

After all, at this time, the Han Dynasty has been peaceful for hundreds of years, and the hearts of the people have not betrayed the Han family, once the reputation of his assassination of Dong is spread, it will still be very beneficial to his future survival, of course, Han Lie is not the kind of person who has a reputation and does not want to die, first of all, he is still very confident in his skills.

Wang Yun groaned, and said: "Now Dong Thief is very wary of us, if I recommend him, he will definitely not trust the virtuous nephew, but there is one person, who is suitable at that time, and this person has a good relationship with Ling's ancestor, you can go to visit tomorrow morning, and then this person will recommend it to Dong Thief, and Dong Thief will definitely not be suspicious." ”

"The person Shibo said, is it Cai Yong and Cai Shizhong?" Although Han Lie has only been in Luoyang for a few days, several ministers who were close to his grandfather Chen Tan in the past have made many inquiries, if you talk about Dong Zhuo's subordinates now, which minister is most respected by Dong Zhuo, it must be Cai Yong.

"Nephew, please wait." Wang Yun smiled, expressing his appreciation, then got up and walked towards the bookshelf, and after a while, Wang Yun walked out with a brocade box in both hands.

Wang Yun, who was kneeling on the ground, opened the brocade box, only to see a colorful light overflowing from the brocade box, and then Wang Yun reached out and handed a short knife about one foot and five inches long to Han Lie, and said: "This knife is the seven-star treasure knife, which can blow hair and break hair, cut gold and cut jade, and the name of the seven stars is named after the seven star stones inlaid on the knife body." ”

Han Lie, who was holding the Seven Star Treasure Knife, suddenly felt a cold air rushing to his face, although the blade of this knife was jet black, but because of the star stone inlay, it was brilliant. At that moment, Han Lie held the knife and waved it lightly, and the copper kettle on the table was cut into two pieces in response.

"Good knives." Han Lie couldn't help but praise.

"This is the scabbard, put it away first." Wang Yun then handed the scabbard to Han Lie and said, "Cai Yong is loyal and pedantic, not flexible, the assassination matter, the virtuous nephew had better not reveal it to him first, otherwise he will definitely not cooperate, this is also for his good, do you understand?" ”

"Don't worry, my little nephew." Han Lie stuck his scabbard and nodded in understanding.

Next, the two discussed the details again, and it was not until late at night that Han Lie went back to his room to rest.

The next day, as soon as it was polished, Han Lie quietly left the palace and wandered around the city for most of the day, and only when he was sure that no one was paying attention to his whereabouts did he come to the door of Cai's house.

Originally, Han Lie thought that Cai Yong, an upstart in the imperial court, was afraid that he might not be in the house, but as soon as he came to the door, he learned that Cai Yong was at home at home and was handling his daughter's marriage.

In the past, when Chen Tan was an official in Luoyang, he also had a lot of dealings with Cai Yong, a great writer, so Han Lie had also seen Cai Yong, and because he was a junior, Cai Yong was naturally not familiar with Han Lie.

But when Han Lie appeared with Chen Tan's token in the past, Cai Yong was still quite enthusiastic, but compared to Wang Yun's enthusiasm, it was a little less, but this can also be understood, after all, the relationship between Chen Tan and Cai Yong is far less deep than that with Wang Yun.

"Junior, Han Lie, meet Master Cai." Cai Yong is also older than Wang Yun, enough to be Han Lie's grandfather, so Han Lie is also very respectful.

"Hurry up, Yong Ruo is not mistaken, Chen Situ once said in the past, I hope you can make a name for yourself and be a pillar of my Han Dynasty, so I intend to take the word Yang for you, I don't know if you can remember the old decay?" Although Cai Yong was a little old, with cloudy eyes, kind and kind, even if he had experienced such a stormy accident, he still showed a slight surprise when he saw Han Lie's handsome face.

"I didn't expect the adults to remember this, I really deserve to be the teacher of the ancestors." Han Lie smiled flatteringly, his character was indeed called Ziyang, and according to the remaining memories in his mind, it was indeed taken by Chen Tan.

"Ashamed, ashamed, old and decrepit, dare to bear this name?" Cai Yong waved his hand and smiled, and said: "Today is the day when the little girl Wenji comes out of the pavilion, because she is married far away, and there are no guests at home, since Ziyang is here, how about staying to drink a few cups with the old man?" ”

"That's it." Han Lie replied, and couldn't help but secretly say in his heart: I saw Diao Chan, who is famous in history, yesterday, but I don't want to witness Cai Wenji's marriage today, and I don't know if this is fate? Or are you just a passerby after all?
