I'm dead in all worlds

Chapter 58 Wang Han's Reputation

Hearing Wang Han's question, Cai Yan quickly replied: "As for my benefactor, my name is indeed Cai Yan."

Wang Han asked, "But Cai Yong's daughter."

"My father is indeed Cai Yong." Cai Yan couldn't help crying and said, "When Dong Zhuo came to power, he forced my father to serve as a sacrificial wine. Within three days, he successively served as the censor, the censor, and the minister. He moved to serve The middle and left Zhonglang generals were granted the title of Marquis of Gaoyang Township. After Dong Zhuo was killed by his benefactor, my father was imprisoned for lamenting on the throne of Wang Yun, and he died in prison soon."

Wang Han comforted: "The dead are gone, the living should look forward."

"Do you have a place to go now?" Wang Han asked.I didn't expect that when I came out to kill the Huns, I just saved Cai Yan who was about to be looted by the Huns. Cai Yan (Cai Wenji) was also a talented woman famous in history, so she couldn't help but want to recruit her.

"A few years ago, I married into the Wei family of Hedong. My husband, Wei Zhongdao, was an outstanding scholar in the university. Unfortunately, the good times didn't last long. In less than a year, my husband died of hemoptysis. I have no children with him, and we were disgusted by the Wei family. , Thinking that I killed my husband, how could I bear this kind of blank stare, so I ignored my father's opposition and went home angrily. After my father died, I lived here alone, and now I am a homeless person. After Cai Yan finished answering, he prayed to Wang Han: "I have nowhere to go now, please benefactor take pity on me and take me in."

After finishing speaking, Cai Yan knelt down and bowed to Wang Han.

"Get up quickly, you will follow me from now on, and you don't need to call me benefactor, just be like them, just call me lord." Wang Han hurriedly helped Cai Wenji up and said, and then asked: "I heard Your father is knowledgeable and talented, and has a large collection of books, do you know if these books are still there?"

"Thank you, my lord." Cai Yan hurriedly thanked, and said, "My lord, my father hid the book and brought it with him. It's a pity that it has been burned by the Huns. However, I can still write six and seven by heart." For a hundred articles, the lord only needs to give me a pen and paper."

"Okay, when we get to the nearby city and settle down these women for the time being, I'll have someone buy you a pen and paper, and a carriage." Wang Han said happily, "Just concentrate on writing the book silently." .”

Cai Yan said politely, "Thank you, my lord."

Shangdang City, a large city in Bingzhou, used to be a city for Zhao State to defend against Wei State.

In the evening, Wang Han finally arrived at the nearest city with his men and hundreds of rescued women.

"A large crowd is coming." On the wall of Shangdang City, the soldiers defending the city saw a crowd of seven to eight hundred people coming towards Shangdang City from a distance, and they couldn't help shouting loudly.

"Is it the enemy?" The soldiers guarding the city wall also saw the approaching crowd and started talking about it, and some rushed to report.

Soon, a middle-aged, burly, eight-foot-tall general rushed to the city wall. He was the general in charge of guarding the Shangdang.

"These people should be refugees." The general defending the city who arrived looked at the approaching crowd and said, "They are in a chaotic formation, less than a thousand people, and they don't have flags or siege equipment. They came here to die, and they couldn’t even go up the city wall. It must have been invaded by the Huns nearby and escaped.”

The general guarding the city ordered to a soldier, "Ask who they are?"

"Yes."

"Who is coming? Tell us your name." On the city wall, a soldier shouted at the crowd who came under the city wall: "Who are the people behind?"

Hearing this, Zhao Liu rode forward and shouted loudly: "I am Zhao Liu under Dingshanhou's tent. Behind me are my master Dingshanhou and hundreds of rescued women. Quickly open the city gate."

"It's Lord Dingshanhou, Lord Dingshanhou is here." Hearing that the soldiers on the city wall were amazed, and then they were pleasantly surprised. Now that Marquis Dingshan has come to Bingzhou, he must have come to drive out the Xiongnu.

"Now that the Xiongnu are invading, we have to be careful. Please come out and see the master Dingshan to verify your identity." The general in charge of guarding the city shouted loudly.

Hearing this, Wang Han rode up on a white rhinoceros and shouted: "General in the city, please open the city gate and let these women enter the city."

"It is indeed Lord Hou of Dingshan, open the city gate quickly." The general guarding the city saw Wang Han and the white rhino riding on him, confirmed that it was Wang Han himself, and immediately ordered the soldiers.Then he hurried down the city wall and went to the city gate to meet Wang Han in person.

Seeing Wang Han enter the city, the general defending the city immediately stepped forward with several lieutenants, knelt down on one knee and said, "The last general, Zhang Sai, pays his respects to Lord Dingshanhou."

"There is no need to be too polite." Wang Han said: "These women were invaded by the Huns, burned their homes, and were homeless. You can arrange for them to settle down first."

"Yes." Zhang Sai, the general who defended the city, quickly took orders, and then said to a lieutenant general, "You take these women to settle down first."

Seeing Zhang Sai's lieutenant lead the women to resettle, Wang Han asked Zhang Sai curiously: "How did you know that I am the real person? It is rumored that I am three feet tall with a green face and fangs."

"My lord is just joking." Hearing this, Zhang Sai quickly replied: "The last general was once a partial general under the command of the great general He Jin, and once accompanied the great general to meet the master Dingshan Hou in Luoyang."

"It's been more than six years." Wang Han said, "I didn't expect you to still remember me after such a long time."

"Ever since I saw Lord Dingshanhou's heroic stature, and heard that His Excellency killed the national traitor Dong Zhuo alone, and distributed new grains, the last general has always followed the example of Lord Dingshanhou, and never dared to forget it." Zhang Zhang Sai said quickly.

"As a Chinese nation, this is what I should do for the prosperity of the nation," Wang Han said.

"What you have done for the people of the world can be learned from the world, and all people admire it. If there were no new grains distributed by Master Dingshanhou, I don't know how many people would starve to death. If Master Dingshanhou hadn't stepped forward and killed Dong Zhuo, the national traitor, asked all the princes to swear an oath and lay down three regulations. I don’t know how many people are still living in dire straits.” Zhang Sai suddenly knelt in front of Wang Han on one knee and said loudly: “Zhang Sai is willing to serve as a tripod. Lord Shanhou vows to serve you to the death, to do his best, and begs you to take me into your tent, and I will definitely die without hesitation."

"Master Dingshanhou, please take me into service. There will be mountains of swords and seas of fire, and I will never hesitate to die."

"Master Dingshanhou, please take me into service. There will be mountains of swords and seas of fire, and I will never hesitate to die."

The soldiers in the city and the soldiers on the city wall heard what Zhang Sai yelled, and they all knelt down on one knee to Wang Han and shouted together.After hearing the voice, more and more soldiers in the city also knelt down on one knee and shouted to Wang Han. More and more people joined in, and even some common people knelt down, and the voice became louder and louder.

Cai Yan looked at the soldiers in the city in disbelief. This is the prestige of Dingshan Hou Wang Han among the common people.

"Get up quickly." Seeing this, Wang Han quickly helped Zhang Sai up, and said to the soldiers in the city: "Everyone, get up quickly. As long as I am still alive, I will surely bring more blessings to the people."

"I also ask Master Dingshan Hou to promise me to wait." Zhang Sai knelt down again and said, "I am not looking for fame or money, but I just want to do my part for the people of the world together with you."

"Okay, get up." Wang Han helped Zhang Sai up again, and said loudly to the soldiers in the city: "Since everyone will follow me from now on, I won't treat my brothers badly."
