A thousand-year-old family that began with the Battle of Makino

Chapter 386: There is a good wife at home who is worried, not only to avenge the family but also to serve the country

白府
This mansion was built on the site of the ancient Bai Guogong Mansion. Compared with the ancient Bai Guogong Mansion, it is simply a small witch compared to a big witch, incomparable.

Now the person in charge inside is Bai Yun, the current imperial doctor Guanglu, a young man under thirty.

Given the generally long lifespan of the Bai family, it is rare for young people to take charge. Historically, it happened during the period of Bai Zhi, the ancestor of the Bai family, and the Bai Qing period of Guangxin Gong. At that time, the Bai family had only one family, and there was only one Bai family in the world.

Today there are four whites in the world: Taihang White, Baiguo White, Xiuwu White, and Luoyang White.

The other three Bais are all the descendants of the Bai family who are over fifty years old. Only Luoyang Bai, due to special reasons, Bai Dian, the successor designated by the previous head of the family, Bai Ya, is living in a different place and cannot represent the family as the leader.

The other family members either followed Bai Dian to Donglai or stayed in Yanshi. Now, only a few family brothers and his wife Cai Wenzhao followed Bai Yun to Chang'an.

His position is Doctor Guanglu, that is, a consultant. In addition to being able to express his own opinions on some government affairs, he also studies with the young emperor Liu Xie who has not yet had Yuanfu. Therefore, he also held the position of palace attendant.

After returning home, his wife Cai Wenzhao stood up from behind the desk, took the heavy robe in his hand, and put it aside.

"Is there nothing going on today?"

Facing his wife's inquiry, Bai Yun shook his head tiredly: "Fortunately, although Dong Zhuo is acting more and more surly now, he still dare not go too far towards His Majesty.

Your Majesty is also very aware of his own situation and understands the principle of keeping a low profile and biding his time. He has no objection to Dong Zhuo's request. It's relatively safe for now. "

"That's good. Chang'an is not as good as Luoyang now, so you have to be more careful about everything."

Cai Wenzhao breathed a sigh of relief. Ever since he was forced to come to Chang'an, Cai Wenzhao had been on tenterhooks. Even when he usually played the piano, he would often play the wrong notes and get frustrated.

Her husband was a close official of the emperor, and her father was Dong Zhuo's most relied-upon and trusted staff member. She knew very well that both of her men would have a relationship with Dong Zhuo.

Even ordinary people knew very well what kind of person Dong Zhuo was, let alone this strange woman who read many books.

Especially these days, in order to capture Wu Fu's accomplices, Dong Zhuo's soldiers forced their way into the White House, which made Cai Wenzhao's heart reach its peak.

Looking at her husband who was sitting in his seat and about to read a book, Cai Wenzhao hesitated and asked: "Do you think we should go find my father and ask him to resign from his position as a staff member in Dong Zhuo's mansion? I always feel that I am too close to Dong Zhuo. not good."

Bai Yun put down the bamboo slips, took his wife in his arms, and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, if there are any changes, I will tell my father-in-law in time. Now Dong Zhuo is acting more and more unscrupulously.

The Wu Fu incident was the time when suspicions were the most serious. If he suddenly resigned from his official position at this time, Dong Zhuo would be suspicious, which would be bad for his father-in-law. "

Cai Wenzhao sighed: "I really don't want to see my father working under Dong Zhuo. Dong Zhuo is too cruel. Why do I have to be this official and live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, where I can live peacefully and peacefully?"

Bai Yun looked at his frowning wife, rubbed her brows, stretched her eyebrows, and said with a smile: "This is why my father-in-law is a great scholar. He can even die for the sake of the world."

Cai Wenzhao held Bai Yun's hand that was rubbing his eyebrows, hugged him and said, "I am a woman. The rise and fall of the world is not as important as the safety of you and your father. Promise me not to despise life rashly, okay?"

Bai Yun hugged his wife tightly in his arms and promised: "No, even if it is for you, I will not give up this life casually. I believe the same is true for my father-in-law."

While the couple was enjoying themselves, the servant's voice came from outside the door: "Sir, Wang Situ has sent someone to invite you to a banquet, which will be held in an hour at the palace."

"I see."

Cai Wenzhao left Bai Yun's arms, turned around to get the thick robe, and put it on for Bai Yun: "Come back early, it's not safe outside, so it's better to move less. The weather is getting cooler now, so don't drink too much. Be careful of the wind and cold.”

Bai Yun looked at her with a smile and said softly: "Don't worry, I know the severity."

After speaking, he turned and left. Cai Wenzhao stood by the door, watching her husband go away, still worried. After sighing, he returned to the study and continued reading "Han Shu".

"Grrrrrr!"

Bai Yun arrived at the palace in a carriage and handed the gift and invitation to the porter Zhi.

"Doctor Guanglu has arrived in vain!"

He followed his servant Bai Yun to the banquet hall.

I don't know why, but there were a lot of banquets during this period. Bai Yun attended more than 20 banquets this month alone, especially Wang Yun.

There were fifty-fourth birthday banquets, granddaughter's full-moon banquets, youngest son's twentieth birthday banquets, etc. Bai Yun came to the palace to attend five or six of them alone.

When Bai Yun entered the banquet hall, he walked straight to his previous position. His position was in the middle, neither forward nor behind.

After bowing to the colleagues and acquaintances around him, it didn't take long for the banquet to begin. As before, Wang Yun still enthusiastically encouraged everyone to drink.

After the banquet, Bai Yun prepared to go home as usual. When he was about to reach the door, a servant quietly walked up to him and said in his ear: "Wang Situ has invited me, please come with me."

"I?"

Bai Yun looked around. Wang Yun had already been at the door personally seeing off the guests, without even looking in his direction.

After seeing the servant confirm again, Bai Yun had no choice but to follow confused.

After some twists and turns, Bai Yun came to the backyard of the palace, a small secret room.

Bai Yun sat on his seat, quietly drinking the tea handed to him by the servant, not only to sober up, but also to refresh his mind, thinking about what Wang Yun wanted to do with him.

"Are you okay, my dear nephew?" After waiting for a while, Wang Yun came in with a smile.

"Bai Yun has met Wang Situ."

Although Bai Yun was a Guanglu doctor with a rank of two thousand stones, he was still in a casual position and was not as important as Situ, one of the three princes.

Moreover, Wang Yun is of the same generation as Bai Dian, and he can only be a junior.

"My dear nephew, there is no need to be polite. Please sit down."

After some time to warm up the cold, Wang Yuntu said: "I heard that when he was in Luoyang, Grand Master Dong planned to punish the Bai family and the two Yuans together, but he was dissuaded by Lu Bu and Cai Yong.

This Cai Yong is the nephew's father-in-law, so there is no need to say more, but why Lu Bu dissuaded him really makes me curious. "

Bai Yun became wary, especially if Dong Zhuo sent him to spy on his reputation.

"My nephew doesn't know why Shibo said that, but after all, my nephew is only a junior. How could my nephew know the situation at that time?"

Seeing that Bai Yun was very vigilant, Wang Yun had no choice but to reveal his intention to overthrow Dong Zhuo and restore the Han Dynasty, because he was not afraid of Bai Yun provoking him.

If Bai Yun were to get out, the Bai family's thousand-year reputation would be ruined. People of the Bai family have been taught since childhood that they must pay attention to trust in life. Without trust, people will not stand up.

As the most honest person in the eyes of the world, Ms. Bai should be strict with herself in order to maintain public order and good customs in society.

"Having said so much, my nephew should believe that I was not sent by Dong Zhuo, and I know that the ancestor of your Bai family, Taifu Bai, passed away suddenly because of the move of the capital.

According to my understanding of Dong Zhuo, this was definitely his secret instigation. "

Bai Yun was silent for a long time, and finally said: "To be honest, Uncle Shi, the Bai family remembers Dong Zhuo's murder of the family head. However, the current head of the family, Bai Dian, lives in Donglai. He has no one in charge and is weak, so he has to swallow his anger. Pretend nothing happened.

If Shibo really had a way to get rid of Dong Zhuo, and if this strategy was feasible, Bai would be willing to contribute his own share of the effort to restore the Han Dynasty. "

Wang Yun said happily: "It is enough to have a good nephew. Now that we have everything ready, we are just missing one key person. If we have him, this matter can be 100% successful."

"Please tell me, Uncle Shi."

"Lu Bu"

Bai Yun was silent, and after thinking about it again and again, he agreed: "Yes, I can persuade Lu Bu to bring order to the chaos, but he values ​​power. If it succeeds, he may be indispensable for high-ranking officials and generous salaries."

Wang Yun made a quick decision and said: "If we can eradicate Dong's thieves, it will be easy for us to be a hero who has made great contributions to rebuilding the Han Dynasty, and will be a high-ranking official with generous salary."

"Well, in three days, I will give Shibo the final answer."

"I'm waiting for news about my nephew."

Wang Yun still doesn't know why Lu Bu helped the Bai family, but this is not important. What is important is that Lu Bu was able to betray Dong Zhuo, which is very important.

It was already late at night when we returned to Baifu. When we got off the car, we saw Cai Wenzhao coming out of the house. It was obvious that she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Just come back."

Bai Yun smiled and said: "Don't worry, days like this will be around soon."

two days later

Lu Bu got an invitation from Cai Yong and asked him to come to the mansion to talk about it.

For this great scholar in the world, Lu Bu was very happy to be able to invite a vulgar person like him to the banquet.

At the banquet, he saw Dr. Guanglu Bai Yun and many celebrities and literary figures. Moreover, they did not show any contempt or contempt for Lu Bu. Instead, they kept praising Lu Bu for his bravery. This made Lu Bu very happy and honored.

After all the guests had dispersed, Cai Yong was left alone with Bai Yun and Lu Bu, who was already drunk. After taking another look at his son-in-law, Cai Yong sighed and left.

Bai Yun came to Lu Bu's case and sat upright. The banquet hall of Nuoda fell into dead silence for a while.

As soon as he drank a cup of tea, Lu Bu sat up suddenly, not looking drunk at all.

"Say, what are you going to do if you leave me alone?"

Bai Yun stood up and saluted Lu Bu and said, "Thank you so much, General Lu, for being able to protect the Bai family in front of Dong Zhuo. This is a great kindness."

Lu Bu waved his hand: "I was born in Zhenbei Mansion, and I am a close friend of General Baima of Zhenbei. You and Baima are from the same clan, so rescuing him is just a matter of convenience."

"General's righteousness."

Lu Bu was very grateful for Bai Yun's courtesy. At this time, Bai Yun changed his tone and said: "The general saved me, Bai Shi, now that the general is in danger, Bai Shi should also repay the general."

Lu Budon stopped drinking and stared at Bai Yun for a long time. Seeing that he didn't seem to be joking, he put down his glass and asked, "Why do you say this?"
