Chapter 77 First meeting
The explanation with Diao Chan went more smoothly than Lin Junshu imagined.
She just listened silently and nodded in acceptance.
For a woman who survives in troubled times, her beauty is all she can use. Even in Lin Junshu's eyes, she is only a fifteen- or sixteen-year-old child, but she still cannot escape becoming a pawn and becoming a wolf in "righteousness".
Set bait.
Three days passed by in a flash, and the entire Situ Mansion became busy quickly under Wang Yun's command, preparing for the crucial first step in the plan to kill Dong.
Except for Wang Yun who occasionally came twice to discuss the details of the banquet with Lu Bu with Lin Junshu, Lin Junshu spent most of the time in the small courtyard with Diao Chan.
The two of them didn't say anything, and just sat in the courtyard all afternoon, watching the pear blossoms on the branches slowly covering the ground.
A boy called at the door, saying that General Lu had arrived at the door, and asked Lin Junshu to go out to greet him.
Lin Junshu said to Diao Chan in the courtyard: "Go back to the house first, that person... is here, I will pick him up."
Diao Chan nodded, returned to the room without saying a word, and the wooden door closed gently.
Lin Junshu raised his head and glanced at the rising crescent moon, sighed softly and imperceptibly, opened the courtyard door, and walked out.
"Hahahaha, Brother Li, long time no see! I never thought that Brother Li would be able to borrow money from Wang Situ to come to the palace to get together. It seems that Brother Li is deeply appreciated by Situ!"
From a long distance away, Lu Bu's hearty laughter could be heard across the verandah. There was no hint of madness in the impression. Just listening to the sound, there was a hint of intimacy.
Lin Junshu hurried up to greet him, with a smile on his face, "Brother Lu came here, I missed you for not welcoming him from afar, it's a shame! My younger sister and I went to Situ, and we were mostly taken care of by Situ. Now we just borrow a small courtyard to be with my brother.
Have a drink, and I hope Brother Lu doesn’t mind."
Lu Bu waved his hand forward, and under the guidance of the boy, he and Lin Junshu walked side by side towards the inner courtyard.
"It's enough to have good wine to wait for and the company of friends. I originally promised that I would invite Brother Li to drink with us, but in the end it was me who came over to drink. Brother Li will definitely come to my house one day and ask me to entertain him well.
Just do it!"
Lu Bu, who was wearing a long robe and no armor, had a sense of spring breeze in his words.
Wang Yun is right when he says that Lu Bu after leaving the battlefield is indeed charming and makes people want to get along with him.
Lin Junshu's superficial identity is just that of a white-clothed guest minister in Situ's residence. His identity and status are worlds apart from that of Lu Bu, Dong Zhuo's lieutenant general and a powerful figure among the eighteen princes.
But Lu Buzhen happily came to Lin Junshu's drinking date just because of a casual encounter on the street. He spoke like a brother, without any hint of arrogance.
"The Lu Bu of this world, if he didn't have the exclusive skill that affects the mind, might be a pretty good person." Lin Junshu suddenly thought.
The two came to Diao Chan's small courtyard.
The banquet was not held in the main hall. With Lin Junshu's disguised identity, it was good to be able to entertain guests in a small courtyard of Situ Mansion. If the banquet was held in the main hall with great fanfare, Lu Bu would be a fool and he would have noticed something fishy.
Pushing open the courtyard door, there are several pots of fine wine and some fruits and meats placed on the stone table. The cold moonlight imprints on the petals falling beside the table, revealing a quiet artistic conception.
"This place is a bit shabby. I hope Brother Lu won't mind. Although there are no silk and bamboo orchestras to accompany it, the wine will certainly be enough."
Lin Junshu introduced Lu Bu into the small courtyard, and the young man retreated and closed the courtyard door.
"Brother Li, with the moonlight accompanying the wine and the falling flowers, it's no better than those worldly things. Let's go, let's get drunk today and then rest!" Lu Bu didn't mind at all, and happily pulled Lin Junshu over to the stone.
Sit down at the table.
On Jun Lin's desk are several jars of fine wine begged from Wang Yun, as well as the wine gourd from which he brought the green plum wine the day before yesterday.
Because of Lu Bu's incident, Lin Junshu has not been in the mood to drink these days. When he saw the wine gourd, he reached out and picked up the gourd first, pouring a bottle for Lu Bu and himself. The aroma of wine with the flavor of green plum filled the air.
In the air.
"Is this the green plum wine from the store at Yongquan Street?"
"Exactly, Brother Lu once said that he prefers this wine, so today we will use this wine to appetize." Lin Junshu raised the wine bottle.
The wine went into his throat, and Lin Junshu drank it from the bottle. The sour and astringent green plum taste exploded in his mouth. It was not as spicy as the white wine he drank in his previous life, but had a lingering fruity aroma mixed with the aroma of wine.
"Good wine!" Lin Junshu couldn't help but praise.
Lu Bu put the empty wine bottle on his face and gave him a gentle smile, "Let me just say that Brother Li is also a person who knows how to drink. When we first met, I felt that Brother Li was very familiar."
Have you never thought that I look like your enemy, so you feel familiar?
Lin Junshu continued to drink for Lu Bu.
After three cups and two drinks, the atmosphere gradually became lively, and the wine jar in front of the two of them slowly became more than half empty.
Alcohol is really an excellent medium to quickly close a relationship. Lin Junshu brought a misplaced sense of familiarity to Lu Bu. After a drink, the two of them became like good friends who have known each other for many years.
"Nuo Yi, why did you defect to Wang Situ? Our army was defeated in Luoyang. Many ministers in Chang'an City wanted to escape but couldn't. How could you choose to defect to Situ at this time?"

Lin Junshu's eyes lit up, and he finally got the phone.
Putting down the wine bottle, a look of helplessness filled Lin Junshu's face, "Oh, how could I not have known that Chang'an today is a whirlpool of troubled times. I was born in Jizhou, and although my family is not a wealthy family, I still live a well-off life. In the past few days,
My family was affected by the Yellow Turban Rebellion that year, my parents died in the war, and the family fell apart. Only my sister and I were left to depend on each other, and life became increasingly difficult. Fortunately, my ancestor had an old relationship with Situ, so he specially brought his sister to join him. Unexpectedly, the court
It’s also a time of turbulence, we little people, alas..."
"Don't worry, as long as I, Lu Fengxian, are here, no one in Chang'an can defeat me." Lu Bu picked up the wine bottle, his eyes were bright in the night, and his pride rose with his words. Lin Junshu saw the man in front of Hulao Pass again in a trance.
An unparalleled warrior.
"Brother Lu, silly brother, can you ask me for a favor?" Lin Junshu picked up the wine bottle filled with wine and said solemnly.
"Oh? Brother Li, do you want to join our ministry as an official?" Lu Bu raised his eyebrows slightly. He liked Lin Junshu and got to know his friend. After a meal of wine, his senses became even better. But if it was adulterated
Otherwise, the relationship begins to change.
"No, no, Brother Lu has misunderstood. Yu has little talent and little knowledge. He is embarrassed by his big job and dare not ask for an official position. But my sister is young and weak. She is helpless and will inevitably be bullied by others. The general is famous all over the world, Yu thought.
I beg the general to take care of my little sister. If my useless brother fails in the future, she can rely on him!"
After hearing what Lin Junshu said, Lu Bu's slightly frowned eyebrows relaxed, "Nuo Yi's sister is my sister. Please don't worry, Nuo Yi. As long as I am here, no one can bully him!"
"Great!" Lin Junshu looked delighted and shouted into the room: "Diaochan, come out and see General Lu!"
Chapter completed!
