Story of Cao Cao in King's Throne

"Cao Cao was known as one of the most productive leaders of the three legendary kingdoms in the East, and, according to rumors, he headed some of the largest armies ever known. He decided to arrange a celebration not only to commemorate his victories, but also to strengthen the spirit of the partnership between the recently conquered rebel troops and its current ones. Cao Cao enjoyed great respect for how he treated the people closest to him, which is why he decided to humbly welcome his guests in the front of the dining room. Zhang, one of his best provincial officials, and his wife, Lady Zhou, entered, and Cao Cao ordered them to sit next to him. The gaze of Cao Cao remained chained to Lady Zhou when she headed for her place. She, in turn, looked in admiringly with a slight smile on her lips and a blush on her cheeks."
