As soon as Wang Yun's words came out, Xu Ji knew that Wang Yun was going to attack Lu Bu. turned his head to look at Wang Yun's ally Bao Xin, but saw that Bao Xin did not listen to the conversation between Wang Yun and Lu Bu, but leaned towards Cheng Yu, who had been closing his eyes to recuperate, and Cheng Yu's eyes were flickering at this time, and he was whispering in Bao Xin's ear, not knowing what he was saying, and Bao Xin nodded again and again.

Sure enough, I saw that Lu Bu was stunned at first, and then an impatient look appeared on his face, but Xu Ji knew that this impatience was not actually aimed at Wang Yun, but Dong Zhuo. Wang Yun had long known that Lu Dao Lu Bu was a narrow-minded person, and he couldn't withstand his own provocation at all.

Wang Yun saw the look on Lu Bu's face, and was secretly happy in his heart, but said on the surface: "Wen Hou, don't blame the old man for talking too much, you and the prime minister are father and son, are there any unsolvable grudges between father and son?" Do you have to turn your face around? ”

Xu Ji secretly exclaimed when he heard this, Wang Yun's words sounded like he was comforting and persuading Lu Bu, but in fact, he was further provoking Lu Bu's dissatisfaction with Dong Zhuo, which would only make Lu Bu think of the "unfair" treatment he had suffered again.

Xu Ji observed Lu Bu and found that Lu Bu's expression was even more displeased, and he secretly exclaimed in his heart.

However, Lu Bu is a very human being after all, of course, it is impossible to get angry on this occasion, so he just reluctantly raised his glass and drank a glass with Wang Yun.

Bao Xin, who was on the side, smiled at this time: "Wen Hou, Lord Wang Yun is right, life in the world, it is inevitable that you will be misunderstood by others, take my old friend Cao Mengde as an example, I really wanted to dedicate the Seven Star Treasure Sword to the prime minister, but because of Wen Hou, you suddenly entered the house, which scared Meng De. It was inevitable that he would be flustered, and he saw that Wen Hou's face was not good. I knew that Wen Hou had misunderstood, so he ran away overnight. Where is the assassination of the prime minister? At that time, Meng De also regretted it very much, and felt that he should not run away, because this matter can obviously be explained clearly, and the prime minister is a person who understands, so he can naturally understand the rights and wrongs of the matter. ”

Xu Ji and Xi Zhicai glanced at each other, and at the same time saw the look of horror in each other's eyes: This Bao Xin is so powerful! When did Bao Xin become so powerful?

Where is this comforting Lu Bu, this is clearly reminding Lu Bu that it is difficult for Dong Zhuo to really forgive him, and sooner or later he will be cleaned up. What's even more absolutely is to tell Cao Cao about the assassination of Dong Zhuo back then, and tell Lu Bu this party, which is undoubtedly arousing Lu Bu's murderous intentions. Dong Zhuo trusted Cao Cao very much, so Cao Cao had the opportunity to get close to Dong Zhuo and assassinate Dong Zhuo, but unfortunately he failed because of Lu Bu; Now Lu Bunai is the closest person to Dong Zhuo, if he wants to assassinate Dong Zhuo, it is really much more convenient than Cao Cao, and there are many opportunities.

And the most vicious thing about these words is the timing of saying them, now is the time when Lu Bu is dissatisfied with Dong Zhuo. These words will only make Lu Bu even more annoyed in his heart, why did he do so much to sabotage Cao Cao's actions in the first place, otherwise where would there be Dong Zhuo's suspicion and distrust now. Or even to get rid of him?

Sure enough, a trace of regret flashed in Lu Bu's eyes, and this time he took the initiative to pour the wine. Xiang Bao Xin said loudly: "Lord Bao Xin, Lu Bu was Meng Lang back then. It's wrong to blame Brother Meng De, but it's a pity that Brother Meng De is not here. I can only respect Lord Bao Xin for a cup, and I hope that Lord Bao Xin will bring a message to Brother Meng De, saying that Lu Bu will not compensate him. Bao Xin smiled and drank happily with Lu Bu.

Xu Ji looked at Wang Yun, but saw Wang Yun nodding slightly at Bao Xin, obviously very satisfied with Bao Xin's performance, but Bao Xin set his eyes on Cheng Yu beside him, with admiration in his eyes. Xu Ji suddenly realized that the words just now were from Cheng Yu's handwriting, think about it, this is normal, although Bao Xin is a wise man, but such an old and cunning strategy is definitely not something he can think of. If it came from Cheng Yu's head, it would not be strange at all.

And it is certain that this strategy was formulated by Cheng Yu on improvise, and he whispered to Bao Xin just now, probably for this matter, right?

These people have their own intentions here, and where do the rest of them know the Tao? However, Xu Ji knew that it was difficult to hide these scheming of these people from one person, and that was Jia Xu. turned his head to look at Jia Xu, but saw that Jia Xu's eyes fell on Cheng Yu's body, not showing the slightest abnormality, but Xu Ji knew that Jia Xu had seen through everything in front of him.

Thinking of this, Xu Ji couldn't help but have a little headache, would this Jia Xu tell Dong Zhuozhi about this? With Jia Xu's IQ, you can definitely see Wang Yun's entire layout.

Xi Zhicai guessed Xu Ji's thoughts, and whispered to Xu Ji: "Don't worry, my lord, Jia Xu will never tell Dong Zhuo about this matter." ”

Xu Ji looked at Xi Zhicai, not understanding why he was so sure, you must know that this is a great opportunity for Jia Xu to win Dong Zhuo's absolute trust and attack Li Ru. Xi Zhicai said with a smile: "First of all, it's too late in time, I asked a long time ago, one of the names of Wang Yun's banquet tonight is to send Li Dao Guo Yan out of Chang'an, and they will leave early tomorrow morning." Otherwise, you can invite the injured Lu Bu and Zhang Ji's uncle and nephew? What's more, tonight's banquet will definitely go on late, you must know that Li Dao and Guo Yan are very lively people, they will definitely drink late. Then I went back and got ready to go. ”

Xu Ji nodded when he heard this, Xi Zhicai was right, it seems that Jia Xu really didn't have a chance to report this matter to Dong Zhuo.

Xi Zhicai chuckled and said: "Besides, Dong Zhuoxin got Cao Ling, he can't put it down, and he can't wait to die on Cao Ling's body, now I'm just afraid that he is upside down with Cao Ling, where is the time to pay attention to Jia Xu?" What's more, now that Dong Zhuo is surrounded by Li Ru's people, how did Jia Xu meet Dong Zhuo? Even if he sees it from time to time, whether Dong Zhuo will believe him or not is one thing. Otherwise, how could Wang Yun be relieved and bold to show his strategy in front of this Jia Xu? Wang Yun, the old fox, clearly saw through what kind of person Jia Xu was. ”

Xu Ji looked at Xi Zhicai in amazement, and was once again surprised by Xi Zhicai's excellence, just this insight, and never under Cheng Yu.

Xi Zhicai said again: "The last thing is that Jia Xu's personality determines that he will not do this kind of thing, on the one hand, this thing is too difficult and unsure, and on the other hand, Jia Xu knows that he has not figured out the whole thing, so he will never speak easily." And Jia Xu doesn't care about the lives and deaths of others, this matter is in front of him, Jia Xu is only thinking about how much benefit it will bring to himself. ”

After a pause, he said, "Don't you think it's a little strange for Jia Xu to leave Chang'an suddenly?" This thing must have been caused by Li Ru. Li Ru would definitely say to Dong Zhuo, if it weren't for Jia Xu's reason. Lu Bu and Cao Ling didn't have a chance to get close, and it was Cao Ling's toast to Lu Bu that caused so much trouble. Xu Ji was shocked when he heard this: This is very reasonable.

Xu Ji laughed in a low voice: "Zhicai is reasonable. It was only then that Xi Zhicai discovered the appreciation of himself in Xu Ji's eyes. smiled at the moment, but didn't take it to heart, and saw Xu Ji's praise in his heart.

At this time, the scene of the banquet began to be lively, because Wang Yun toasted Li Dao Guo Yan, these two people were rude in nature, and they would be presumptuous when they touched a little wine, and many people frowned.

Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu have a deep relationship with Jia Xu, maybe Jia Xu has no true feelings for these two. But Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu were absolutely reluctant to let Jia Xu go, so the two of them toasted Jia Xu frequently.

After this round of drinking, Wang Yun took advantage of Jia Xu's topic of staying away from Chang'an, toasted Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu with a glass of wine, and then said with a smile: "Lord Zhang Ji, I almost forgot, I haven't seen Mrs. Zun for some time, I miss it very much, and I hope to invite Mrs. Zun to the cold house as a guest." I don't know if it's okay? ”

Zhang Ji didn't doubt him, and said with a smile: "Lord Wang Yun is too polite, the two of them are like sisters, and they often come and go. It's the same every day you call him over. ”

Wang Yun was overjoyed, but on the surface, he patted his head and smiled: "The old man is confused, I thought that their girls would meet and make an invitation like us!" ”

Wang Yun's words immediately caused everyone present to laugh. Li Dao and Guo Yan even said a few obscene words one after another to prove the difference between men and women. Everyone listened.

On this occasion, those who have always been out of place with everyone are Liu Bei and Zhang Ren, who are watching from the sidelines. The two of them form a small group on their own, smiling from time to time in intimate conversations, ignoring all others.

Li Dao and Guo Yan have always drunk heavily and rarely get drunk, so they repeatedly persuaded them to drink, causing many people to drink so much that their faces were red, crawling on the table, and refusing to drink anymore. After arriving at the end of the day, everyone said goodbye one after another, and only a few people were left to accompany Li Dao and Guo Yan.

Of course, Xu Ji was really pretending to be drunk, so he was going to go back to Caifu with Xi Zhi, who was really drunk, Wang Yun saw the two of them staggering, for fear that something would happen to them, and was about to ask someone to send them back, but saw Bao Xin stand up and said that he was going to send the two back. Wang Yun glanced at Xu Ji, who was already "drunk", nodded, and said nothing more. And Xu Ji knew that Bao Xin had something to say to himself. But if it weren't for the fact that he was already drunk like this, that Wang Yun might have suspected Bao Xin's current intentions! It has long been known that these two sides are not in each other's hearts.

Bao Xin and Cheng Yu helped Xu Ji and the two to the car, and then the two also got into the car. Before getting into the car, Bao Xin patted Xu Ji on the shoulder and scolded with a smile: "Master Pony has good acting skills, but now I still don't want to pretend anymore." ”

Xu Jiha smiled, then sat up straight, looked at Bao Xin and smiled: "I already knew that I couldn't hide it from you." Bao Xin smiled: "Of course," Cheng Yu, who was on the side, took over and said: "Although I don't know the amount of alcohol that Lord Bao Xin and Master Pony have something to say, so I will know that Lord Pony is pretending to be drunk, but Li Dao and Guo Yan are really annoying, and anyone else will learn from Lord Pony to escape." ”

Xu Ji glanced at Cheng Yu and found a characteristic of Cheng Yu, that is, he is particularly good at using words to impress others, what happened to Lu Bu just now is a clear proof, and now he is saying this to himself, he and Cheng Yu originally only said a few words, and because they were at the gate of Chang'an at the time, because Li Su was on the side, the two were just limited to general conversation.

Now this Cheng Yu can talk to himself so naturally, as if the two have known each other for a long time, and will naturally eliminate the strangeness between the two, in this case, it is the easiest to make a statement. You must know that Cheng Yu is a stranger, with him present, Xu Ji will have a lot of words to say, and Cheng Yu is doing this now to eliminate the gap between the two.

Thinking of this, Xu Ji's heart moved, why didn't he spread some fake news? Therefore, he said to Cheng Yu affectionately: "Mr. Cheng Yu is really a wise man, he actually guessed that I was pretending to be drunk at once, if it was replaced by someone like Brother Bao Xin who knew my habits, it would be just that, but Mr. Cheng Yu also guessed it, and he deserved to be the first adviser under Meng De's account." ”

Cheng Yu smiled when he heard this, obviously happy because he and Xu Jitao were almost successful, but then he still said a few words of humility. And Bao Xin also glanced at Cheng Yu with a smile. Apparently deeply impressed by his extraordinary intelligence.

Xu Ji looked at Xi Zhicai, who was sleeping soundly, and knew that he could only deal with the two of them on his own today. Just thinking about it. Bao Xin said to Xu Ji: "Master Pony, since the last time you told Meng De about you being attacked halfway. Meng De has been investigating this matter in secret, and finally found out that this thing may have been done by Zhang Xiu. ”

Xu Ji was surprised in his heart, Zhang Xiu attacked himself? There is no reason at all. What does this Bao Xin want to do? Cheng Yu saw Xu Ji's questioning look, and hurriedly said to Xu Ji: "Don't doubt it. In fact, this matter is not that Zhang Xiu wants to target the general, but that Zhang Xiu is venting his personal anger. After a pause, he said, "Do you know the rumors about Dong Zhuo and Zhang Ji's wife Zou in Chang'an?" Seeing Xu Ji nodding, he said again: "Although we don't know whether the truth is true or not, the matter between Zhang Xiu and the Zou family is true, so we are very angry at this rumor." So the matter between Dong Zhuo and Zou is very likely to be true, but unfortunately he has no way to vent, so he led the troops out, and the beautiful name is military training, but no one knows where he went to train the soldiers, and it was not until we all came to Chang'an that this Zhang Xiu appeared. In fact, this reason is easy to explain, that is, Zhang Xiu hopes to kill the envoys of the princes everywhere. Find trouble for Dong Zhuo, because the envoy died on the way to Chang'an, and Dong Zhuo can't get rid of this matter. Since Zhang Xiu couldn't help Dong Zhuo, of course he would take this extreme way. I believe that the horse can also see that Zhang Xiu's personality is very ruthless and decisive. So it's no surprise that this is done. Moreover, Zhang Xiu went out to train troops after the horse called on the princes from all over the country to send envoys into Chang'an. After a pause, he said: "But fortunately, Zhang Xiu was defeated by the horses, so that Zhang Xiu was powerless to attack the other princes' envoys." Speaking of which, these envoys really have to thank the general. ”

Xu Ji looked at Cheng Yu and didn't understand why the people he met today were so able to lie. First Wang Yun, and then now Cheng Yu. No, Cheng Yu's words really sound like that. And the slightest deduction is very reasonable, the most important thing is that Zhang Xiu is a person, it is very likely to do this, and Zhang Xiu's biggest suspicion is that the time when Zhang Xiu entered and left Chang'an was between the envoys from all over the country rushing to Chang'an, it was too much of a coincidence, even if Zhang Xiu was present, I am afraid that it is also indisputable. It's a pity that Xu Ji is 100% sure that this thing was definitely not done by Zhang Xiu.

It is true that there is a big "Zhang" on the banner of the sneak attacker, but this does not explain anything, the sneak attacker's army is indeed well-trained, but well-trained armies abound all over the world, and Zhang Xiu's army is just one of them. As for the time problem, it is even more inexplicable, envoys from all over the country came to Chang'an, Zhang Xiu was called back by Zhang Ji to participate in the banquet is a courtesy, there is nothing strange, saying that Zhang Xiu went out to train, no one saw him, that is, it is entirely possible that Zhang Xiu did not attack the envoy, because no one knew the whereabouts of Zhang Xiu.

Xu Ji sneered in his heart, he already knew the agreement between you and Wang Yun, but because he was afraid that Wang Yun was just using you and restricting you with Zhang Xiu, so now I came to beat my Xu Ji's idea, that is, he mistakenly thought that the person who attacked him was Zhang Xiu, and then used himself to eliminate Zhang Xiu, so that without Zhang Xiu, Wang Yun would completely rely on Cao Cao and make a good calculation. But since people are working so hard, I will pretend to believe it and fool them.

Thinking of this, Xu Ji's face sank, and he scolded coldly: "What a Zhang embroidery!" Look at how I Xu Ji cleans you up! Bao Xin and Cheng Yu's faces flashed with joy.

Bao Xin grabbed Xu Ji and said in a deep voice: "Eh, don't be impulsive, now is not the time to do it, and your own army is all outside the city, I think the horse is still out of Chang'an City after the meeting, because our people have learned that Zhang Xiu will go out of the city one day during this time, after all, the rumors of Chang'an City have not passed, and the horse immediately beat him so badly, how can he not take revenge?" It is very likely that the horse will pursue the tail of the horse, and the first strike is the strongest, and the horse can ambush Zhang Xiu halfway. ”

Xu Ji sneered in his heart, from Bao Xin's words, Xu Ji already knew a little bit, that is, Zhang Xiu was responsible for the city defense in Wang Yun's plan, that is to say, after the successful assassination of Dong Zhuo, Zhang Xiu would definitely be ordered to go out of the city to inspect it, and in the impression of the report, because he left Chang'an first and didn't know that something big had happened in Chang'an, he was kept in the dark, of course, he would mistakenly think that Zhang Xiu came out of the city for himself, and he would definitely ambush Zhang Xiu. And by doing so, you can transfer yourself out of Chang'an first, so that you won't mess with yourself outside Chang'an.

Since Zhang Xiu was in charge of the city's defense, Cao Cao's army would be transferred into the city to maintain law and order after Dong Zhuo was killed.

However, there are still a lot of people that Cao Cao wants to get rid of, because even if there is no Zhang Xiu, Lu Bu is also a pawn in Wang Yun's hands, and he can also restrain Cao Cao, of course, Lu Bu is a puppet, and it is very easy to deal with. Unlike Zhang Xiu, there is Jia Xu under him, although Jia Xu has been taken away by Li Dao Guo Yan at that time, but after the death of Dong Zhuo in Chang'an, of course Jia Xu can come back at any time, once Jia Xu comes back, Zhang Xiu will be even more difficult to deal with, it seems that Cao Cao has learned from Wang Yun that Jia Xu is powerful.

It turned out that the purpose of Bao Xin's conversation with him was to borrow a knife to kill people!

Ha, this thing is really interesting, everyone has secrets, but everyone knows their secrets, and everyone thinks they are hiding them. Xu Ji felt funny when he thought about it. (To be continued......)
