Three Kingdoms: At the beginning, Lu Bu was mistaken for his father-in-law

Chapter 194 193 It's finally here!

"I have always admired the prestige of General White Rabbit. The general rose from the rice fields, and his name is well-known in all directions in Hanoi. Even Sikong, the current imperial court, has been defeated by the general. Come, give a toast to the general."

Hanoi, Huai County.

Sima Yi has been here for a while, and he is keen to make friends with heroes from all walks of life. In addition to having discussions with Zhang Yang, he will speak a few words when he has the opportunity. Like the tide.

You know, behind Sima Yi is the Sima family, the most prominent family in Hanoi, and as most of these grassroots warriors, they will look up and respect Sima Yi in the background of the times.

Sui has a cute nickname, White Rabbit, and Sima Yi is still very happy to call him General White Rabbit.

But as a black mountain thief, he can achieve the prestige in front of people like today, but he is not as gentle as the white rabbit, and it is easy to kill people.

However, Sui Gu respected Sima Yi very much, and his words of praise were more useful than hearing them from ordinary people.

This is like a diamond saying that you are really good and a bronze saying that you are really good. The sense of vanity in your heart is completely different.

"Zhongda is young, but his talent is well-known, and I am also very fond of your name." Sui Gu with a bearded face was drinking wine with a smile.

"Nowhere, compared with the prestige of General White Rabbit, this poor name is like stars compared to the bright moon, but"

Sima Yi frowned, sighed heavily, and raised his wine glass, "It's nothing, come on, I'll toast the general again."

"Hey, this is not going to be fun for you."

Sui Gu, who was born as a black bandit, has always been straight-hearted. He couldn't stand these twists and turns, so he directly pressed Sima Yi's wine glass, and said displeasedly, "Mr. Zhongda, why don't you just talk about it? Do you think I'm an outsider?"

"Okay, since the general asked the question personally, I dare not lie."

After Sima Yi put down his wine glass, he didn't forget to look around the house to make sure that there was no one and said in a low voice: "The general should persuade the lord, I'm worried that there will be a catastrophe in Hanoi."

"A catastrophe. What a catastrophe?" Sui Gu immediately looked down upon hearing this.

"General, Yuan Shao is dead. The northern kingdom has been in turmoil recently, and powerful enemies are bound to surround him. Let alone Cao Cao, he will not sit idly by, and will definitely go north to attack the city."

Sui Gu rolled his eyes, there was a reason, "But this, what's the hindrance to the lord?"

"The general doesn't know. My brother is an official in Xuchang. I wrote a letter to my subordinate a few days ago, advising me to leave Hanoi, because with Cao Cao's current strength, I can't go straight to Jizhou. What should I do? He can only take Bingzhou first. If he wants to take Bingzhou, Hanoi cannot be bypassed, for this reason”

Sima Yi made a gesture of raising and lowering the knife, and Sui Gu gasped in surprise.

This is true, Hanoi County is like a big mountain between Bingzhou and Xuchang, if you go around, you will always be attacked by the Northern Army from behind, and the grain road will be stretched for hundreds of miles.

And Cao Cao is now so powerful that he may be afraid to go straight to Jizhou, but it is definitely easy and enjoyable to win Hanoi. In this way, Hanoi is indeed in a big crisis.

Originally thought that once Yuan Shao died, the crisis from the northern kingdom would be eliminated, but he forgot that there was Cao Cao.

Trouble, trouble.

Sui Gu stood up, rubbed his hands uneasily, sat down again after a long time, and said quickly, "Master, you want me to persuade the Lord to surrender to Cao Cao?"

Sima Yi slowly shook his head, "I've thought about this question, but I'm afraid it's impossible. The Fujun and Marquis Wen have a life-and-death relationship, and he is willing to take the risk of entering the North Kingdom alone for Marquis Wen, which can be seen here."

That's right, I have been in Hanoi for many years, if I was willing to vote for Cao, I would have voted for it long ago. Suigu shrank like a deflated ball, with panicked eyes.

It is impossible for him to persuade Zhang Yang to vote for Cao.

But not voting for Cao means facing Cao Cao's army directly, after all, it concerns the entire Bingzhou.

"Then what should I do?"

"This section, I don't have a clue."

Sima Yi sighed and shook his head, looking at Sui Gu regretfully, "Actually, I plan to return to Wen County in a few days, but I admire the name of General White Rabbit, so I really can't bear to be kept in the dark this time, so I can't help it." Don't talk too much to remind me."

"Thank you sir, thank you sir."

Sui Gu, who was born as a bandit, could not have any independent thinking. He was basically following Sima Yi's thoughts. After being brought into this pit by him, he fell into panic and restlessness, and his wine was no longer fragrant.

Seeing that Sima Yi didn't intend to say anything further, he simply stood up and bowed, "Mr.

"This"

Sima Yi looked puzzled, but he couldn't help it in the end, and sighed: "Only the lord can decide this matter. As for the wolves, the actions of the wolf king are naturally the criterion. The general should be very clear about this."

"Yes, except for the wolf king, no one can control the direction of the wolves." Sui Gu mumbled and repeated this sentence, feeling something in his heart.

Not too stupid, Sima Yi heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, dealing with stupid people is quite painful.

Seeing that the call was almost over, he first filled Sui Gu's wine glass, then changed the subject and asked, "I remember that Zhang Yan on Taihang Mountain also rose together with the general during the Yellow Turban Rebellion?"

He hasn't gotten away from the crisis described by Sima Yi, but just nodded lazily.

"Zhang Yan is amazing. Now he leads more than [-] people and dominates the Taihang Mountains. Even Yuan Shao, who was at the height of his power before, must be cautious. Do you still remember that Gongsun Zan asked Zhang Yan for help before his defeat.

To tell you the truth, even in front of him, Cao Cao wanted to curry favor with Zhang Yan. He was really an indomitable hero. "

"hero?"

Sui Gu snorted coldly, "He's just luckier than me. If Zhang Niujiao hadn't died early, how could he be the master!"

Zhang Yan, like Sui Gu, was born in bandit, let alone one is stronger.

Sometimes, it is fate, you can't help but believe it.

Sima Yi smiled and nodded: "The general is certainly a hero, but it's a pity that he can't make his own decisions. Come, drink, drink."

In terms of this mentality, even if he has not been immersed in Cao Ying, Sima Yi can still play with Sui Gu in his hands.

He didn't mention rebellion in a word, but played psychological tricks on him all the way.

First, he was promoted to the altar, and then he was told that Hanoi was in danger, and you could not make decisions by yourself, and finally pulled out Zhang Yan, who was at the same time, to show off.

Just imagine, how can ordinary people endure such a gap, let alone he is just a bandit with no bottom line.

He even began to regret not taking Hanoi when Zhang Yang went to the Northland.

In fact, Sui had his own concerns, he was just a bandit, and he didn't have the title of General Anguo and Prefect of Hanoi, like Zhang Yang, who was appointed by the imperial court, how could he appease the powerful families in Hanoi?

Without their support, the [-] troops couldn't all fall into bandits, right?

However, this was the mentality before, and it was different in front of him, because the spokesperson of the Sima family, the head of the Hanoi family, was right in front of him.

He rolled his eyes, and asked tentatively: "Zhong Da, I don't know what your father thinks of me?"

"My father also highly respects the name of General White Rabbit. He often tells his subordinates that Fujun is indeed extremely brave, but without the assistance of General White Rabbit, I am afraid that it would be difficult to achieve today's achievements."

Sima Yi leaned forward, and said in a low voice: "I also think that General White Rabbit's talent is by no means inferior to that of the Fujun. If not, why would I visit repeatedly?"

"Thank you, thank you." Sui Gu's voice was very soft, but the previous fear faded from his eyes.

An absurd but reasonable bold idea emerged spontaneously.

No one said anything to each other.

But Sima Yi could guess from his eyes that the purpose of this trip was achieved.

So, he raised his wine glass and pretended to be white.

Cai Yan traveled thousands of miles in a carriage and finally came to Pengcheng.

In fact, during the years before and after her marriage, she never left the scope of Sili Prefecture, and this time was also the first time she came to Xuzhou.

Looking at the word 'Pengcheng' in gold above it, I can't help feeling, "It's as prosperous as Luoyang in the past."

"Lin Mo met Miss."

Cai Yan never expected that Lin Mo, who was the prefect of one party, would personally pick her up at the gate of the city.

On the way here, she kept thinking about what kind of person Lin Mo was. When she actually saw him, the words popped out of her mind, he was handsome and handsome.

"The daughter of the people has met the Marquis of Lanling, and thank him for saving his life." Cai Yan bowed her body as a blessing, and her demeanor and speech were light and elegant.

Lin Mo was not as excited as she imagined when she first saw Lin Mo, who had always been a talented girl who was difficult to appease before crossing.

There seemed to be a sadness in her eyes that she didn't want to tell others.

It's pitiful when you think about it. Her husband died of illness, her father was murdered, and she was ravaged by the Huns on the prairie for five years. To be able to look like a normal person when she comes back is considered extraordinary.

"Miss is serious, please." Lin Mo made a gesture of please, and opened the way ahead.

Cai Yan behaved dignifiedly, even when walking, he deliberately kept a distance from Lin Mo that should exist between a man and a woman.

Lin Mo and Cai Yan did not go directly to the banquet living room to have dinner, but first walked to a quiet courtyard, where corridors, pavilions, waterside pavilions, and streams flowed from the rockery. When a gust of wind blew, the green bamboos in the courtyard rattled Noisy, quite a taste of paradise.

"This place is Miss's temporary residence in Xuzhou." Lin Mo also spent some time in this other courtyard, specially preparing it for her.

Cai Yan's dark eyes looked around in the courtyard, seeing no waves, but nodded slowly, "Thank you, Marquis Lanling."

It can be seen that the gloom in Cai Yan's heart is very heavy. This kind of haze cannot be dispelled in a short time. Lin Mo is thinking that such an environment and such etiquette can always heal people's heartache.

Following Lin Mo back to the Lin Mansion, Zhao'er had already prepared a large table of delicacies, and Ling'er also accompanied her, which made her feel more at ease.

"The Marquis of Lanling is a few years younger than the Minnv, so he probably doesn't know my father. Dare I ask why the Marquis of Lanling is willing to save the Minnv at any cost?" Find a good opportunity to ask, now you can speak.

"Cai Daru's virtuous name spreads far and wide, and there are countless juniors in the world who admire his character, and I am just one of them."

It's reasonable, and Lin Mo has thought about this explanation a long time ago, "I've always understood Miss's situation, if you don't dislike it, Pengcheng will be your home from now on."

"My Home"

Cai Yan's beautiful eyes sank slightly, revealing an elusive resentment, and finally she just showed a polite smile, nodded and said, "Thank you Lanlinghou."

Although Lin Mo gave the answer she wanted, Cai Yan instinctively felt that this matter might not be so simple.

The education she received since she was a child also told her that the four words of knowing kindness and repaying should be proved by actions. First, she expressed her gratitude to Lin Mo with a glass of wine, and then said indifferently:

"My father collected more than 400 volumes of books during his lifetime, but after several wars in Guanzhong, these classics have long been lost, and Minnv can only remember more than [-] volumes. If the Hou Ye is willing, Minnv is willing to silently write a book and present it to the Hou Ye."

In this era when a book is worth a thousand gold, more than 400 volumes of ancient books can be sold in the market and he can easily get tens of thousands of gold. If there are precious orphan copies, 10,000+ gold is also possible.

From the perspective of economic benefits alone, it is definitely not a loss to redeem Cai Yan.

Of course, Lin Mo didn't intend to sell these books for money. Today's Ziyang Academy needs to grow, and these books are inseparable. With books, countless students from poor families can be attracted.

"I can send some officials who know how to write to help." Lu Lingqi marveled at Cai Yan's memory. She also heard Lin Mo talk about the experience of this talented woman, and she felt quite sentimental and offered to help.

But Cai Yan just shook his head slowly, "Whether a man or a woman can give or take, Madam only needs to give me the Four Treasures of the Study, and I will give them within a month."

One month, it’s amazing, even if a book has a thousand words, more than 400 books are more than 40 words, so you can’t copy it.

In fact, Lin Mo put so much thought into redeeming Cai Yan, what he valued was not her amazing memory and silently written books, but Cai Yan's own value.

Cai Yong's position in the hearts of scholars in the world is very important. As a descendant, Cai Yan can also inherit part of the afterglow. Letting her be the nominal principal of Ziyang Academy will definitely further strengthen this brand.

Secondly, Cai Yan is not affiliated with any aristocratic power, and she is definitely not attracted by fame and wealth. This can avoid the previous situation where the Chen family stretched out their hands in the academy to expand their power.

A person who is as calm as water, calm and far-reaching will definitely make Ziyang Academy go further. It can't be said that it can completely prevent the aristocratic family from getting involved in the students of the academy, at least it can play a certain deterrent effect.

However, it seems that this matter still needs some thought. After being Cai Yong, Cai Yan will certainly not know the value of more than 400 books. She will probably think that this account is enough to pay back Lin Mo's life-saving Thank you.

Therefore, there is still a long way to go for her to stand on his own front and cultivate Ziyang Academy together.

Fortunately, he won't be like a headless chicken. The Cai Yan in front of him, ordinary people can see that he has serious inner trauma. Lin Mo thinks this is an opportunity that can be used.

A wandering soul, a heart with no place to rest, the greatest desire is an oil lamp to guard her home.

It sounds easy, but it is difficult to do.

Home has never been a house or a garden.

But it's okay, it's still a long time, let's take it easy to fix it.

"Yunwen!"

While eating, Zhao Yun ran in quickly, "Don't eat, there are people from Qingzhou, and Marquis Wen told you to come over immediately."

After finishing speaking, Cai Yan raised his eyes and looked at Zhao Yun. There was a strange look in each other's eyes, and they both nodded and smiled politely.

Cai Yan's appearance can't be said to be very good-looking, especially after five years of wind and frost on the grassland, his complexion is a bit dark and dry, quite characteristic of northern nomads, but the elegant temperament of a lady has never disappeared, this temperament It made Zhao Yun feel comfortable looking at each other.

And Zhao Yun, as a member of the army, has a resolute face and a heroic spirit, but his every move has a bit of Confucianism. This is completely different from the rough temperament of the generals Cai Yan has seen before, and it seems to give people a sense of stability and safety. It feels like I can't help but take another look.

"It's bad, I forgot about it, I said I would come today."

Lin Mo hurriedly put down his chopsticks, looked at Lu Lingqi, "Ling'er, take care of Miss, I still have military affairs to do."

Then he nodded towards Cai Yan, and quickly left with Zhao Yun.

Simpi finally came, this is a big event, a fun game, it's time to start.
