Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 26 The Confused Future

It has been said that women's intuitions are the scariest because they are exceptionally sharp and often accurate in their judgment.Then the girl's intuition is even more terrifying.

Therefore, Cai Yan immediately noticed the solemnity and kindness that Fei Qian conveyed to her in his salute, instead of the feeling of casually perfunctory in his bones like others, although his movements were very standard.

Moreover, Cai Yan was also quite satisfied with the sound of "Senior Sister". She used to be called "Senior Sister", but now she has finally returned, so she took two steps and put the sheepskin roll she was holding in Cai Yong's hand, facing Fei. Dive in return.

Since he is a named disciple, he is not a stranger, so Cai Yan naturally does not need to avoid it.

"Cough cough..." Cai Yong looked at the two rolls of sheepskin in his hand, "What is this?"

"Ah," Cai Yan reacted, just as the person concerned was also present, and quickly said to Cai Yong, "This is what my daughter found in the library, look, this volume is written by the body poison, this volume is written by Da Qin , there are some fonts in the two volumes that are similar to... um... Fei and Fei's younger brothers..."

Originally, Feiqian was not qualified to be called Senior Sister. After all, Feiqian was still a named disciple. As a result, before Cai Yong could react, his daughter seemed to have already responded with words and actions. Calculated.

"That's true!" Cai Yong took a closer look, compared the left and right, and there was indeed a bit of similarity, so he called Fei Qian forward to watch.

Fei Qian finally fell to the ground with a stone in his heart, and stepped forward to take the parchment scroll.

The sheepskin rolls have a long history, and although they have tried their best to preserve them, there are inevitably some folds and black lines, and some of them have even suffered mildew from insects and are slightly broken.

I don't know what kind of paint was used on the parchment scroll. After the vicissitudes of time, it is still recognizable to this day. Fei Qian didn't know what was written, but the characters written on it were somewhat similar to modern letters.

Listening to Cai Yan's words just now, one is from the body poison and the other is from Daqin. Whether the body poison is ancient India, Feiqian is not very sure, but Daqin, Feiqian still knows a little bit, it is ancient to the west of Hexi. A mixed general term for those other countries, it seems that the Han Dynasty did not divide this area in great detail...

Then there is no problem.

Fei Qian held up the sheepskin scroll and returned it, saying: "When I was young, my disciple was stubborn and often thought it was too cumbersome to count. When I saw Daqin people in the market, it seemed easier to count. Later, when I accidentally got this bamboo slip, I often used it instead of the number of words. Save some pen and ink... After all... brocade paper is too expensive..."

Cai Yong stroked his beard, nodded and said, "I think this method is really simple, but if you use bamboo slips to memorize it, it will be quite inconvenient. Numbers are only convenient when paper is used on a large scale. Otherwise, it would be better to engrave the twisted and crooked letters on bamboo slips than to engrave horizontal and vertical Chinese characters.

However, Cai Yong also felt that there was no need to attack the innovative spirit of young people, so he said warmly: "Ziyuan has this innovation, and the arithmetic is quite convenient, maybe it can be used, come, what is the meaning of this word?"

Fei Qian explained to Cai Yong and Cai Yan the fonts and meanings of Arabic numerals from 0 to 9 one by one, and said that xyz represents the earth element in the scriptures, that is, the earthly branch of Zi Chou Yin Mao and so on, not to mention, X and Zi are also quite similar in shape, Cai Yong and Cai Yan have almost no objection and then fully understand.

When Feiqian finished speaking and unknowingly approaching Wanxi, Feiqian hurriedly bid farewell to Cai Yong.

Cai Yong didn't mean to stay with Feiqian for dinner. On the one hand, Cai Yong was like a child who got a novelty toy, and he was still trying to use numbers and letters to calculate the problems in the scriptures. On the other hand, Feiqian had only officially met after all. A few times, Qiang stayed for dinner and both parties felt awkward, so he asked the servant to send Fei Qian back.

After Fei Qian had walked for a while, Cai Yong suddenly came to his senses, stopped writing and said, "Ah, isn't this Ziyuan's bamboo slip, why didn't Ziyuan bring it back..."

"Father, you didn't say anything, who would dare to move?" Seeing the housekeeper signaling that the food was ready, Cai Yan walked over and pulled the corner of Cai Yong's shirt, pulling while saying, "I'll call you next time. What he brought back is, Father, it's time for dinner!"

"Don't talk, don't talk! Okay, let's go, let's go!" Cai Yong put down his pen rather reluctantly, and went to dinner with Cai Yan.As he was walking, Cai Yong suddenly remembered something and said to Cai Yan, "Just now before Ziyuan, Meng De came here and brought a set of ancient books. If you are interested, you may take a look."

"Brother Meng De is here today?" Cai Yan was a little surprised. After all, since Cai Yong decided to marry her to Wei Zhongdao, Cao Cao seldom came to Cai Mansion.

Cai Yong suddenly asked on a whim, "Yan'er, what do you think of Meng De?"

Cai Yan glanced at Cai Yong, how could she not know what her father meant because of her intelligence, and said, "My father hates me so much? You have to drive me away as soon as possible? Isn't Senior Brother Meng De already married, father? Are you asking me to be a concubine in the past?"

Cai Yong squeaked, "I'm just talking casually, I don't have any other intentions." - Yes, why did I forget that Meng De was a married person, alas, he really is old...

Cai Yong looked at his lovely daughter by his side, and his heart was full of pity. He was getting old day by day. Now other official positions and property are not important. The most important thing is to give something to his daughter. Find a good home.

but--

It’s hard to choose, the sons of this noble family, there are only a few who can be equal to my family, those who are married are married, and those who are not married—Cai Yong glanced at Cai Yan, a little distressed—not suitable now...

If it drops again, it will be a little more wronged - before the Wei family took a wrong look for his father, this time we have to think carefully about what to do, and we can't be wronged any more Yan'er...

While eating, Cai Yong suddenly squeaked and patted his head.

Cai Yan hurriedly asked Cai Yong what was the matter, only to see Cai Yong smiling and saying that he forgot something, but if you forget it, forget it.Although Cai Yan was puzzled, but seeing that Cai Yong didn't say anything, that's all.

The setting sun is gradually setting, although only the father and daughter are eating in the Cai Mansion. Although it is simpler, it is full of warmth and love. In comparison, the banquet in Wenming Garden, the imperial garden of the Han Dynasty, is very rich. All kinds of delicacies are dazzling, but the people at the banquet are a little absent-minded, winking at each other, and the whole banquet is full of strange atmosphere.

After many days of quiet operation, Dong Zhuo invited the three Dukes, Jiuqing and a number of important officials in the court to a banquet with great fanfare this time.

Although this group of important officials of the court are sitting on the table, they actually have their own thoughts, some are uneasy, some are angry, with different expressions and different attitudes, but one thing is certain. The banquet will be a stage for Dong Zhuo's forces to express their attitude, and it will determine what to do in the future. In comparison, what to eat is not important at all.

The main table was still empty, the banquet had started for a while, but Dong Zhuo, the host of the banquet, had not arrived yet.

　Please recommend, please collect... Last night, the author also dreamed of going back to the Three Kingdoms, but unfortunately I didn't meet Cai Yan... I met Cai Mao... Then Cai Mao cut him back...
