When Chen Yang returned to Chang'an, he immediately asked someone to inquire about Cao Ang.

When Cao Ning saw them coming back so quickly, he probably understood that the rescue plan to go south this time had failed, and his mood suddenly became very bad.

"Ning'er, I'm sorry!"

Chen Yang said helplessly.

"I don't blame Husband, it's not Husband's fault either!"

Cao Ning shook his head slightly, but said again: "Brother is the eldest son of the father, he will not do anything to him, and his mother is still there, but it is a pity that all the efforts of the elder brother before should be gone, and he may feel very uncomfortable."

Chen Yang said: "If you don't have it, you can start again. Xiao Cao is not such a self-destructive person, don't worry."

Cao Ning nodded slightly, and said again: "The hardest person should be your husband. You have lost more than your elder brother. In the end, it became like this. It is all of us in the Cao family who are sorry for you."

Whenever she thinks of these things, she feels very uncomfortable.

"Don't think so!"

Chen Yang put her in his arms and said, "We are fine now, and we will never leave again. We will stay in Chang'an forever."

There is another sentence that he didn't say that one day, he will take back everything he lost.

After comforting Cao Ning for a while, Chen Yang went to find Jiang Wei and Wei Yan.

"General, we just got the news from Xiangyang that Zhao Zilong and the others were also imprisoned by Cao Cao."

Jiang Wei frowned and said, "How about the eldest son, there is no news yet."

"Are Zilong and the others all right?"

Chen Yang asked nervously.

"According to the news, he was just locked up, but many days have passed, and I'm not sure what happened."

"I killed them!"

At the beginning, they were recruited by Chen Yang, and they also took refuge in Chen Yang, not the Cao family.

He and the Cao family broke their faces, and they were implicated.

"I should have killed them!"

Wei Yan said helplessly: "Cao Cao must have seen me betray him and left with the general. He was worried that Zilong and the others would do the same, so he locked him up."

This is the most direct reason, and Chen Yang is the root cause.

"I don't know if Jiang Dong and others will be implicated by the general."

Jiang Wei worried.

"Sun Zhongmou is a smart man and knows what to do when this happens. I think Jiang Dong will be fine."

Chen Yang pondered for a moment, and said: "Don't call me the general in the future, if you still want to follow me, call me the lord! Next, let's take control of Guanzhong, Liangzhou and other places, as for Luoyang , Our hands are not long enough, we can’t reach there for the time being, we will try again when we have enough strength.”

Wei Yan immediately changed his address, and said in surprise: "My lord, have you thought it through?"

Chen Yang did not respond to his question, and continued: "Go and control Guanzhong first, use Chang'an as a base to establish our sphere of influence, and talk about the rest later."

At first, he only wanted to go to Liangzhou and the Western Regions, but never thought of starting from Guanzhong.

What happened to Cao Ang was to give him a chance to change his original plan, not to mention the geographical situation in Guanzhong, which was conducive to their defense.

"Yes!"

Wei Yan said quickly.

"My lord, I understand too!"

Jiang Wei could probably guess what Chen Yang wanted to do, but Cao Cao forced them out.

After they left in a hurry, Chen Yang kept thinking about how to rescue Zhao Yun and the others next.

How to save Zhao Yun and the others without attacking Xiangyang?

Chen Yang thought for a long time, but couldn't think of a good way.

Several days passed, and finally got the news of Cao Ang. Just as Chen Yang thought, Cao Ang was defeated the next day after retreating back to Chang'an, and there was really no time.

However, he received a letter from Xiangyang sent by Cao Cao, saying that Cao Cao knew his mistake and wanted to invite Chen Yang to return to Xiangyang to apologize and admit his mistake. The attitude must be as sincere as possible.

"My lord, don't go back!"

Wei Yan persuaded.

"The eldest son's persuasion should be effective. Cao Cao knows the importance of the master and wants to restore everything in the past. We decided to do this. Going back is meaningless, and I don't agree to go back."

Jiang Wei said.

"You are all right, but this is also an opportunity for me, I think I have to go back."

Chen Yang said in a deep voice: "I want to take advantage of this opportunity to rescue Zilong and the others. Deng Shizai and the others will follow Xiao Cao back. They probably will never come back again. I need capable generals to help me accomplish my mission."

Capable military generals, namely Zhao Yun, Guan Yu, and Huang Zhong, as well as Wenpin, Ye Shun, Guan Ping, etc., were also imprisoned in Xiangyang, and they used to be Chen Yang's background.

"When does my lord plan to go back?"

Jiang Wei had no way to refute, this matter had to be taken a risk.

"Going back tomorrow, just me and Wang Yue are enough, please keep Chang'an and wait for us to come back."

Chen Yang said solemnly: "When I'm not around, Wenchang, you have to listen to Boyue's advice. If someone comes to attack, don't be reckless, you know?"

"understand!"

Wei Yan nodded.

After ordering these things, Chen Yang returned home and talked to Zhang Chunhua by the way.

"Can't you go back?"

Zhang Chunhua said nervously.

"We are in Guanzhong. It is safe for the time being, but it is only temporary. If we want to be safe forever, I have to make changes."

Chen Yang said affirmatively: "If I don't go back, I won't be able to rescue Zilong and the others, and they will be harmed when the time comes."

Zhang Chunhua was silent. There were some things that she could not persuade, so she just hugged Chen Yang tightly.

"I plan to leave tomorrow!"

Chen Yang continued.

"Be sure to pay attention to safety!"

"I know, for so long, I can escape from death all the time, it's not a big problem."

……

The next morning.

Chen Yang and Wang Yue walked out of the city gate, and a group of ladies saw them off behind them.

"Husband, wait!"

The red clam hurried over and said, "This is the whistle, come out, little snake!"

The colorful little snake crawled out of the red clam and looked at Chen Yang curiously.

"Little snake, you have been following your husband for the past few days."

The red clam said softly, "This is the whistle I made last night. It doesn't need a special method. When you need a little snake, you only need to blow the whistle, and it will come out to help you. Be sure to keep it safe."

She stayed up all night to make a whistle, her eyeballs were bloodshot, and she solemnly stuffed it into Chen Yang's hands.

The little snake climbed onto Chen Yang's wrist. If it was before, he would definitely be terrified, but now he thinks the little snake is very cute, as cute as the red clam, and hopes that he will never use it.

"I see, you wait for me to come back!"

Chen Yang said with a smile: "Isn't it just to save a few people, it will be fine, don't worry."

After bidding them farewell, Chen Yang took Wang Yue with him and rode his horse to the southeast, returning to Xiangyang.

This trip was a turning point for Chen Yang.
