After standing there for a long time, Cai Yong, whose hair had already turned gray, couldn't help but shook his head.

"Jeongji, please teach the young master some more lessons today."

"No matter how much he cries, he can't leave here before dark."

Cai Yong turned around and looked at his youngest daughter, who had grown into a graceful young lady, and spoke.

"Father, what big thing happened?"

Cai Yuan frowned slightly and asked in confusion.

"What can happen?"

"It's nothing more than one group of people forcing another group of people to die."

"But once this Emperor's Sword is unsheathed and stained with blood, how many people's blood will be stained, and whose blood it is? Who can say for sure?"

"The old sword is full of love. In the past, Emperor Xuan watched his wife being murdered, but in the end, the one who harmed others ended up harming himself."

"It's dawn now. It's time for me, the father, to go to the theater, haha."

Cai Yong shook his head, put on his shoes, picked up his paper umbrella and walked out the door.

"Father, are you coming back?"

Cai Yuan asked worriedly.

"What can a father do? He said he was from the previous dynasty, but he is also from this dynasty."

"As for others...if they don't die today, they won't have a good life tomorrow."

"Do you think you can rest easy just by forcing someone to death?"

"Everything in the world is caused by cause and effect. Whatever you sow today, you will reap tomorrow."

“Humans are not plants, trees, bamboo, or stone. Even the emperor within the palace walls has feelings.”

Cai Yong opened his umbrella, left a few words, and then left the mansion in the drizzle.

Just after walking a short distance, Cai Yong heard sad music coming from the direction of the General's Mansion.

Cai Yong paused and couldn't help but tremble.

"Alas, how sad."

"Four hundred years!"

Cai Yong stared ahead, his eyes filled with loneliness.

I hurried to the outside of the general's mansion, and it was already surrounded by people.

Some were old ministers of the Han Dynasty who had followed the dynasty all the way from Luoyang to Chang'an and had witnessed the turbulent times of the past ten years.

"Mr. Cai."

"The princess...the princess died suddenly."

When Yang Biao saw Cai Yong coming, he quickly grabbed Cai Yong and whispered.

"How come it's so fast?"

"I haven't heard that the princess is ill?"

Cai Yong pretended not to know and asked in surprise.

"Ugh."

"I'm afraid it's almost our turn."

Yang Biao sighed, his eyes full of worry.

"If Yang Gong had known this would happen, why would he have been so greedy for power?"

Cai Yong asked back with a playful look on his face.

"you!"

"I consider you a friend, you..."

Yang Biao was furious and pointed at Cai Yong, hesitating.

"A new emperor chooses new ministers."

"Look at me, what position have you ever held?"

"The disputes in the imperial court have always been like an abyss."

"Just like a fish coveting the water in the deep, this is the time to wake up."

"Could it be that Yang Gong believes that Xiang Yu's support can protect you for eternity?"

"Hurry up and cry. If you don't cry now, it will be too late."

Cai Yong smiled and shook his head, his words full of contempt.

"It's not like I forced him to death."

Yang Biao looked at Cai Yong and said angrily in a low voice.

"Yes and no."

"You die today, and they die tomorrow."

"No one can escape the damned."

Cai Yong helped Yang Biao adjust the official hats of the three dukes, and then he walked towards the Liang Mansion not far away with an umbrella.

Fuchu

Dong Zhuo lay in the rocking chair with his eyes closed.

Cai Yong could clearly feel that the rocking chair was moving at a very fast frequency today, with a hint of impatience.

"Mr. Liang."

Cai Yong bowed and greeted.

"Whoo~"

"You came."

“Today I know that a father does not know his son.”

"Bo Ji, I regard you as a teacher and friend. Can you find a way?"

Dong Zhuo's arms were shaking a little, and he quickly tried to stop the rocking chair.

"Mr. Liang, you are old."

"I'm old too. You can't even stand up right now, and you still want to protect others?"

"As decisive as Zihe is today, he will be even more decisive tomorrow."

"Every dynasty has seen bloodshed. I write history, so I see it clearly."

"You offered me official positions many times, but I refused them all because I knew this day would come."

"The country is like a rocking chair under you. The faster it rocks today, the more stable it will be tomorrow."

"If the son doesn't do it, the grandson will."

"Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings."

"Just now, the final stroke of the Han Dynasty has been made."

"I have no regrets in this life."

Cai Yong sat aside and said with a relieved look on his face.

"That child, don't let him come back for the time being."

Dong Zhuo lay tiredly in the rocking chair and looked at Cai Yong.

"Do not worry."

"The princess used herself to protect him."

"Even if I risk my life, I won't let anything happen to him."

"Fortunately, the child is still young. Otherwise, who knows how many people would have died in the future."

"These people are so self-righteous, but they don't know that even a tiger won't eat its own cubs."

Cai Yong grabbed a handful of dried fruits, obviously he really came to watch the show.

"I thought I was his father and I understood him."

"I thought he could always keep that girl. She has been filial to me over the years."

"Bo Ji, she is filial to me, and my grandson is her daughter."

"I didn't expect him to be so stubborn and use this method..."

Dong Zhuo grabbed Cai Yong's hand, and tears actually flowed from his cloudy eyes.

When people get older, their hearts tend to soften.

He is really old.

"You think too simply."

"Although I don't know exactly what happened last night."

"But if she doesn't die, her son won't be able to sit in that position."

"Otherwise, how can those who followed you to start your business feel at ease?"

"Those under his command are fine. They haven't done anything excessive. There's no need to be anxious."

"But those of yours dug up people's ancestral graves, wreaked havoc in the harem, poisoned the empress dowager, and forced the deposed emperor to death."

"How can they not be afraid?"

"The princess died today. The child is still young and can't remember the past grudges. They can finally rest in peace."

Cai Yong sneered. He was the only one who dared to tell everything Dong Zhuo had done in the past.

"How long can I be at peace with this?"

"In the end, you still have to die."

Dong Zhuo squeezed Cai Yong's arm so hard that it hurt.

"Get out of my way!"

"Your legs aren't working properly, not your hands!"

"I'm sixty-eight years old, and my old arms and legs can't bear it anymore!"

Cai Yong's face flushed and he said angrily.
