It’s night, Chang’an City.

At this time, the entire Chang’an City became brightly lit, and because Dong Zhuo was going to hold his birthday, he directly ordered all Luoyang City to be lit up to celebrate himself.

Although the people complained, no one dared to object, and in the imperial palace of Chang’an, lanterns were hung everywhere, bright as day.

The place where the birthday banquet was held was the palace of the emperor’s banquet and all the ministers, but now that the Han Emperor was young, it was Xiangguo Dong Zhuo who was in power, and he directly requisitioned it.

However, at Li Ru’s insistence, Dong Zhuo did not let the Han Emperor Liu Xian come to the banquet with him, otherwise sooner or later he would make the sky angry.

Dong Zhuo came early from Meiwu, came to the palace, sat directly in the position where the emperor should be, and watched the officials continue to come to the banquet.

Looking at the valuable birthday gifts in the hands of the officials, Dong Zhuo on the main seat also had his eyes shining, and his fat face was even more squeezed.

From inside the palace to outside the palace, there are Xiliangtie horses stationed to prevent assassins from attacking, and they will be searched when entering the palace.

All sharp things could not be carried, Lü Bu came to the outside of the palace with Fang Tian’s painting halberd, and the guarding Xiliangtie did not go to search his body.

After all, Lü Bu is now the Marquis of Wen, and he still has a certain prestige in the Western Liang Army, although it is not as good as before, but there are still generals who have given advice.

“Qi Xi Wen Hou, when you arrive outside the Zhanghua Hall, you still have to pay attention to it, you can’t bring weapons into the hall!”

Lv Bu didn’t speak, just stared at the soldier lightly, snorted coldly and walked towards the palace.

However, a little contempt appeared on the face of one of the guards, and he whispered to the soldier who had just spoken.

“The current Wen Hou is not as good as before, three times defeated by that Zhao Zilong, Lord Xiangguo is a little disdainful of him!”

Hearing this, the soldier who spoke just now nodded in deep understanding, and his eyes were already full of disdain when he looked at Lu Bu.

……

Not long ago, Lü Bu, led by the guards, came to the outside of the Zhanghua Hall, knowing that Dong Zhuo was closely guarded for this birthday banquet, and directly placed Fang Tian’s painting halberd outside the hall.

But even so, two guards greeted him, looked at Lu Bu with a somewhat indifferent face, and said loudly.

“Xiangguo has an order, you must search your body when going to the banquet, and ask Wen Hou to cooperate!”

Hearing this, a trace of anger flashed in Lu Bu’s eyes, secretly saying that this Dong Zhuo didn’t even trust me, in this case, don’t blame yourself for not showing mercy to your subordinates.

After some searching, there was no search for weapons, but the two guards set their eyes on the slender brocade box in Lv Bu’s hand, and Lü Bu said with anger.

“This is the sword Feihong I gave to my righteous father, do you want to take it away directly!”

After saying that, he opened the brocade box directly, and the two guards immediately saw the pearlescent Feihong and a little surprise appeared on their faces, and hurriedly said.

“Wen Hou please come in, such a birthday gift must be liked by Lord Xiangguo!”

Lv Bu stared at the two guards for a while, and then walked into the Zhanghua Hall, a smile appeared on his face, and he looked at Dong Zhuo on the main seat and said.

“Son, wish the righteous father, happiness is like the East Sea, the sun and the moon are prosperous!”

Hearing Lv Bu’s voice, Dong Zhuo on the main seat glanced at it casually, waved his hand, and continued to talk with Li Ru beside him.

Seeing Dong Zhuo treating himself so perfunctorily, a chill flashed in his eyes, but his face was as usual, and he found a middle position and sat down.

Subsequently, several officials continued to arrive, and when Wang Yun arrived, he directly gave Lü Bu a look, and the two looked at each other and nodded.

Wang Yun had already glimpsed the slender brocade box in front of Lü Bu, and knew that Lü Bu would act according to the plan, and he breathed a long sigh of relief in his heart.

……

Dong Zhuo saw that the hundred civil and military officials had arrived, and knew that these courtiers were sending birthday gifts to him, and he was rarely angry because of this.

Looking at the birthday ceremony next to the ministers, a smile appeared on his face, and he nodded to Li Ru next to him, and Li Ru shouted loudly.

“From the birthday banquet, congratulations to Xiangguo!”

“We are for Sangkokuga!”

The hundred civil and military officials responded in unison, and Xiangguo on the main seat saw this, waved his hand, and the guards next to him agreed, and immediately passed the banquet.

Many palace ladies kept passing on the delicacies, and not long ago, the palace was suddenly full of fine wine and food.

When everyone tasted a few bites of food, officials began to toast Dong Zhuo, and flattering words continued to come out of their mouths.

“Lord Xiangguo works day and night, but I am a good minister of my great Han, and the lower official is Xiangguohe!”

“I wish Xiangguo a thousand years old, like the eternity of the moon, like the rise of the sun, and the lower official congratulates the Lord Xiangguo!”

“Zhu Xiangguo…”

More and more officials came forward to congratulate each other, and Dong Zhuo on the main seat was also full of smiles

Halfway through the birthday banquet, the main event finally arrived, and officials began to come forward to offer birthday gifts, gold and silver jewelry, calligraphy and paintings.

Finally said to Lu Bu here, I saw him calm down, hide the chill in his eyes, and said with a smile on his face.

“The child congratulates his righteous father on his birthday and presents the sword Feihong!

After speaking, he opened the brocade box, and suddenly under the illumination of countless lanterns, the flying rainbow inlaid with countless gemstones looked even more brilliant.

Dong Zhuo on the main seat saw this, his eyes were shining, and he quickly sent someone to take Feihong into his hands to play, and Zhu Guangbao made Dong Zhuo like it very much, and said loudly.

“My son, who is filial piety, has offered such a treasure to his father, which is very dear to my heart!”

Wang Yun, who was sitting not far away, saw that Feihong was being played by Dong Zhuo, and was a little anxious, stood up, calmed down and said.

“Lord Xiangguo, I visited Wen Hou a few days ago and found that Wen Hou was rehearsing a sword dance, saying that he wanted to celebrate Xiangguo’s birthday!”

When Lv Bu in front heard this, he immediately realized, and after a little thought, he bowed and looked at Dong Zhuo and said.

“Righteous father, the child has been practicing dance for a long time, and I want to use Feihong to dance for my righteous father, and I hope the righteous father will agree!”

Li Ru next to Dong Zhuo still had some doubts, how Wang Yun went to visit Lü Bu, but Li Ru, who drank a lot, did not think much.

Hearing this, Dong Zhuo smiled even more on his face, and directly threw Feihong at Lü Bu, who directly stepped forward to catch it, and then pulled out a sword flower.

But where did Lü Bu know what sword dance, the weak sword dance that Wang Yun let him practice, was subsequently abandoned by Lü Bu.

Instead, he selected some flashy sword moves, sometimes speeding up, sometimes slowing down, but there was a bit of ornamentation.

Dong Zhuo and everyone looked at Lü Bu’s sword dance and brightened their eyes, but Lü Bu gradually approached Dong Zhuo.

Finally, Lv Bu felt that the distance was almost over, and directly climbed the steps, pulled out a flying rainbow and pounced on Dong Zhuo.

When Feihong was unsheathed, the reflection brought by it made Li Ru startled in his heart, and he hurriedly pounced on Dong Zhuo and shouted at the same time.

“Xiangguo be careful, Wen Hou wants to assassinate!”
