Ever since I came back that day, I couldn't help but think about Diao Chan's matter. Sigh, such a fresh flower was about to be inserted into cow dung. It was really unpleasant.

I thought to myself. Although I can't change her fate, I have to at least find a way to cure her mother. Otherwise, I'll lose Hua Tuo's face.

Thus, after studying a few medical books through the night, I had a rough idea of what to do. I went to ask Lord Qiao to let me go to Situ Manor to see Diao Chan.

But before I could finish, Sir Qiao coldly said,"No."

I was stunned for a moment before asking,"Why?" Diao Chan is considered Wang Situ's adopted daughter. Even if she doesn't have much status, she can be considered a daughter of a noble family. It doesn't seem unreasonable for me to visit her.

Lord Qiao glared at me but didn't say anything. He insisted,""It's not appropriate for you to look for her. There's no need to mention this matter again.”

After hearing what he said, I knew that there was no turning back. Alright, since I can't go out myself, I'll mention this to Xuan Se. I hope he can go and see Diao Chan's mother when he's free.

Xuan Se naturally agreed. But unexpectedly, after two or three days, he ran over to look for me. He shook his head and sighed."Junior Sister Qiao, this can't be. I arrived at the Situ Residence and just as I told them my purpose for coming, the gatekeeper said that there was no such person as Miss Diao Chan and chased me away.”

"What?" I thought for a moment and asked,"Did you say that I invited you over?"”

"Of course I did, but they also said that without this person, no matter who asked me to go over, they couldn't let me in, right?"”

" There's such a thing…" I muttered to myself.

After Xuan Se left, I thought about it and felt that something was wrong. How could Diao Chan not exist? Not to mention the historical records, she should be working as a courtesan in Wang Yun's house at this time. Could it be that I saw a ghost that night? Of course not. But why didn't Wang Yun let Xuan Se go to see his mother? Also, Sir Qiao's attitude was too strange.

The only explanation was that Diao Chan had already been sent to Dong Zhuo…

Thinking of this, my heart couldn't help but turn cold. How many days has it been since I last saw her? In that case, Sir Qiao went to Situ Manor to discuss this serial beauty trap? No wonder…No wonder Diao Chan's expression was so cold and depressed. Anyone who encountered such a thing would not feel happy, right?

I sighed slightly and felt even more depressed. I actually didn't think of that. Sigh…Although this matter isn't related to me, thinking about how slow I was at that time, I feel unspeakably uncomfortable.

However, no matter how much I sighed, time was still slowly slipping away. Outside the courtyard wall, the situation in Chang 'an was changing rapidly.

In less than half a month, the news that Grand Preceptor Dong had taken in a peerless beauty as his concubine had spread throughout Chang 'an. The officials who came to the Grand Preceptor's residence as guests or to discuss matters were lucky enough to catch a glimpse of her beauty. They all praised her beauty.

The rumors about Diao Chan and Wang Yun were all over the capital. There were also many people who secretly insulted Wang Yun, saying that he was a great scholar of his generation, but he was bent on ingratiating himself with a treacherous official like Dong Zhuo. He did not hesitate to use such a cheap method as offering a beauty. There were also people who mentioned Diao Chan in a vulgar manner, saying that she was shameless and that using her beauty to serve others would not have a good ending.

Gradually, some people noticed the ambiguous relationship between Lu Bu and Diao Chan.

Although I stayed in the residence and didn't go out, these rumors couldn't avoid reaching my ears. It was human nature to gossip, not to mention gossip about those in power. In modern times, it would definitely be the entertainment headlines.

Of course, at this time, other than the mastermind of this conspiracy, no one would have thought that such a scandal would ultimately determine the fate of a generation of treacherous officials.

However, this day had finally arrived.

One quiet morning, Mr. Qiao left the house with a heavy expression before dawn. At noon, news came from the palace that Dong Zhuo had caused trouble in the Imperial Court and had been executed by Marquis Lu and Wang Situ.

Everyone was shocked. Many of the maids and servants in the manor actually cheered happily. Regardless of whether Madam Qiao agreed or not, they all rushed out into the streets to watch the show. They could not be blamed for this. Besides the servants brought from Luoyang, many of them were local Chang 'an. Some of them had been implicated and poisoned by Dong Zhuo. When they heard the news of his death, they could not help but get carried away.

I took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention and ran to the entrance to look outside. However, I didn't dare to go out. After all, it was too chaotic at this time.

Outside the door, the bustling crowd was squeezing toward the city entrance. I was still hesitating when I saw a pale yellow figure flash past me.

"Xiyan, what are you doing here?”

I looked up and saw that it was Xuan Yue. I hurriedly replied,"Let me take a look at the situation. It seems to be very chaotic outside.”

" Of course it's chaotic," Xuan Yue replied." Dong Zhuo is dead, and everyone is celebrating."”

"Yes, I am." I nodded." Xuan Yue, why are you here?”

"I was just about to go out and take a look. Do you want to come with me?" Xuan Yue smiled.”

"Eh?" I raised my eyebrows in surprise.

Xuan Yue leaned closer to me and whispered,""To tell you the truth, I want to see Lu Bu. I heard that he's my uncle master's disciple. He voted for Dong Zhuo, which made my uncle master mad.”

" Ah," I exclaimed." Then you've met him?”

"Of course not." Xuan Yue said solemnly," I'm just curious. I heard that he changed sides this time because of a woman. I also want to see what kind of beauty has such great charm.”

Ah, Diao Chan. I suddenly thought that she had succeeded this time. She had done what Wang Yun had asked her to do. Then, what was next? What would happen next? It was said that after Xi Shi retired, she was pushed into the river by Gou Jian's empress and drowned. What about her…

I was startled by my own wild thoughts. I immediately replied in a low voice,"I also want to see Diao Chan. Why don't I go with you?”

Xuan Yue was stunned." You're going out too?”

I nodded." I haven't gone out for a long time. It's so boring to stay at home. No one seems to be paying attention to me today, so I can take the opportunity…Besides, your martial arts are so good, and I won't cause trouble. I'll just hide in the dark and peek a few times. It'll definitely be fine!”

Mystic Moon sized me up for a while before looking at Cheng Wu and Jiang Ge who were not far away."It's good, but don't bring your two servant girls. I can't keep an eye on so many people. If we get separated and something happens, I won't be able to escape the blame.”--

He continued to update another chapter at night and crawled away…
