The Jagged Cavalry of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 251 Chapter 250
Zhao Yun followed Li Cai to the shore. He saw that Li Cai's subordinates were busy exchanging things with Wuhuan people for horses, so he knew that Li Cai was a businessman.

However, his gaze was like a torch, and he could see at a glance that the weapons and armors exchanged between Li Cai and the Wuhuan people were all very sophisticated things, and there were so many of them, he couldn't help feeling a little suspicious, thinking that Li Cai was absolutely Not a simple businessman.

In addition, Zhao Yun also saw a mountain of refined salt, one by one packed into a carriage by the Wuhuan people, some of which were not tightly sealed and spilled, and the surrounding area was a vast expanse of whiteness, melted into the snow. One.

Under the leadership of Li Cai, Zhao Yun got into a temporary tent. There was a bonfire in the tent. Despite the cold wind outside, the tent was very warm. Not only that, a sheep was being roasted inside the tent. , It was almost roasted, and the aroma lingered in the tent, which immediately aroused Zhao Yun's appetite.

Li Cai pulled Zhao Yun and sat on the ground. The ground had been treated and there was no snow on it. There was a blanket under his buttocks. Sitting on the blanket and having a bonfire, it was very warm.

At this time, Li Cai took out a jar of fine wine, handed it directly to Zhao Yun, and said loudly: "Strong man, when you come to my place, don't be polite, just eat and drink to your heart's content!"

Zhao Yun couldn't help it either, he took the fine wine and took a big gulp, then wiped his mouth and shouted loudly: "Good wine!"

Li Cai had someone cut off a large piece of mutton with a knife, put it in a pottery bowl, and brought it to Zhao Yun.

The food was in front of him, and Zhao Yun, who was hungry, didn't care about so much. He grabbed the mutton and gnawed it fiercely. The large piece of mutton fell into Zhao Yun's stomach.

For more than half a month, Zhao Yun has been hiding in order to avoid being chased and killed. He has never had a full meal, and even when he is sleeping, he must always be on guard against someone coming to harm him.

Fortunately, he was highly skilled in martial arts, and the people who came to hunt him down were all mobs, and he almost killed them all.

He headed east along the west of Liaodong, intending to go to Liaodong County to temporarily avoid the limelight. Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived in the Liaodong vassal state, the pursuers came after him again. He was exhausted, so he had to fight hastily. I don't know how many times I died.

Thinking about it, Zhao Yun's heart became blocked, and he felt that he was so useless, but he always believed in his choice, even if he was killed, he didn't have any complaints.

After Zhao Yun finished eating a piece of mutton, Li Cai asked someone to offer another large piece of mutton, and said beside him: "Strong man, eat slowly, don't worry, as long as the strong man can eat, this roasted whole lamb of mine is yours!"

After a stick of incense, Zhao Yun ate two large pieces of mutton in a row and drank a large jar of fine wine. After eating and drinking, he inadvertently hiccupped. The image is still handsome and compelling.

Li Cai looked at his words and saw that Zhao Yun was not simply a down and out person, so he took the opportunity to ask: "A strong man is strong in martial arts, and he is wearing armor. He should be a soldier. Why did he end up in such a mess?"

Zhao Yun sighed heavily. Seeing that Li Cai was not hostile to him, and gave him food and drink, he told all about his experience.

After Li Cai heard this, he realized that Zhao Yun was originally a general under Gongsun Zan's tent. When he thought of Zhao Yun's name again, he seemed to have heard it somewhere before.After thinking about it carefully, I remembered that when Cao Cao invaded Xuzhou, Zhao Yun also led his army to Xuzhou to support him.

"Zhao Zhuangshi, Gongsun Zan is dead. As the saying goes, the tree fell and the monkeys scattered. Yuan Shao sent people to chase you to this place. You can't stay in Hebei anymore. I don't know what your plan is?" Li Cai asked timely.

Zhao Yundao: "Now I'm a mouse crossing the street, and everyone shouts and beats me. I want to take refuge in Liaodong first. Liaodong is located in a remote place, and Yuan Shao's forces can't touch it at all. Besides, Gongsun Du, the prefect of Liaodong, is also the overlord. I'm going there temporarily. Dodge for a while, and then wait for an opportunity to return to Hebei to see if there is a chance to assassinate Yuan Shao and avenge General Gongsun!"

"Zhao Zhuang does not forget his old master, he is a righteous man. However, with Zhao's bravery, it is a pity to avoid chaos in Liaodong. To be honest, I am a subordinate of the general. I was ordered to cross the sea and come here to buy horses with the Wuhuan people. I don't know if Zhao Zhuangshi intends to serve as a general under the general's account?" Li Cai asked.

"General? You mean Zhang Yan?" Although Zhao Yun is in Youzhou, he also pays attention to the situation in the world. In the past two years, Zhang Yan has separatist Xuzhou, and his power is in full swing. He has defeated Cao Cao and Yuan Shu successively, and he has become the overlord of the Central Plains. Yuan Shao didn't take advantage of Zhang Yan's hands, and he was still a little jealous of Zhang Yan.

Li Cai nodded.

Zhao Yun had met Zhang Yan once when he was in Xuzhou, and it was old acquaintance. At that time, Zhang Yan still wanted to recruit him, but because he was Gongsun Zan's general, he couldn't agree.He remembered that before he left, Zhang Yan said that if there was anything unsatisfactory, he could come to Xuzhou to find Zhang Yan.

Now, when Zhao Yun is in despair, Gongsun Du and Gongsun Zan in Liaodong still have a feud, and he has killed several generals under Gongsun Du's tent. If he goes to seek refuge rashly, if his identity is revealed, Gongsun Du will definitely fall into trouble , his situation will be very worrying.

After much deliberation, Zhao Yun finally made a decision, and immediately said to Li Cai: "Since Mr. has kindly invited you, Zhao Yun will not refuse any more. Besides, I am also very willing to serve under the account of the General. But, I don't know that the General Are you willing to take in me, a down and out person?"

Li Cai laughed and said: "Zhao Zhuangshi, please don't worry about this, the general has always been thirsty for talents, Zhao Zhuangshi is such a brave person, if the general learns that Zhao Zhuangshi has arrived in Xuzhou, he will be very happy..."

……

Xuzhou, Pengcheng.

For the past month, Zhang Yan has been immersed in the joy of having a son. In order to create the best environment for his wife and son, he asked someone to set up a fireplace in the room, and lit a fire every day. Although it is freezing cold, the house is warm as spring.

At this moment, Zhang Yan was hugging his son, talking to him non-stop. The baby who had just been one month old didn't understand anything, but even so, Zhang Yan was still overjoyed.

Seeing Zhang Yan like this, Mi Zhen, as a wife and mother, was also very happy, walked to Zhang Yan, hugged the child, and said to Zhang Yan: "Husband, it's time to breastfeed the child!"

Zhang Yan couldn't put it down and gave the child to Mi Zhen, and sat there quietly, watching Mi Zhen breastfeed the child, not to mention how happy he was.

At this time, a maid walked in from the door, leaned forward and said: "General Qi, the imperial physician ordered Mr. Fan to come and is waiting in the front hall."

Zhang Yan waved his hand to signal the maid to back down, while he said to Mi Zhen, "I have something to do, I'm going out first."

Mi Zhen nodded and watched Zhang Yan leave.

Zhang Yan came to the front hall, saw Fan Ah was already waiting there, and said, "You're finally back!"

"Fan Ah has seen the Great General!" Fan Ah immediately bowed.

"Excuse me, between you and me, there is no need to be so polite."

The two sat down as guests and hosts, Fan A first asked: "I don't know why the general asked the lower officials to come?"

Although Fan A was appointed as an Imperial Physician, he was obsessed with medicine and always felt that his knowledge was too small, so he traveled around the world with his teacher Hua Tuo for half a year last year, and he didn't come back until today.

Who knows, when Fan Ah just returned to Pengcheng, someone came to invite him, saying that the general wanted to see him.He thought that the general had some kind of illness, so he came immediately. Who knew that Zhang Yan was flushed, full of energy, and he didn't look sick, so he asked directly.

Zhang Yan asked someone to fetch a pottery bowl, put it directly in front of Fan Ah, and said to Fan Ah: "Please help me to see, what kind of medicine is contained in this bowl?"

The pottery bowl was empty, but there were medicine stains on it, Fan Ah picked up the pottery bowl, sniffed it with the tip of his nose, and said: "General, this bowl contains safflower."

"Safflower? What is it for?" Zhang Yan asked.

"Major general, where did this pottery bowl come from, and who used it?"

"You don't need to worry about this, it's for women."

After Fan A heard this, he was about to explain the medicinal value of safflower, and when Zhang Yan heard that safflower had the effect of abortion, he couldn't help frowning, and a cloud of anger immediately accumulated in his heart.

This pottery bowl was obtained by Zhang Yan from Diao Chan. Three months ago, Zhang Yan saw Diao Chan drink medicine, and he knew that Diao Chan was not sick, so he gave the pottery bowl out. Fan A was not in Pengcheng at that time. , followed Hua Tuo to travel around the world, so Zhang Yan had to ask the doctors in the city to take a look, and concluded that it was also safflower.

However, the doctor said that safflower has the effect of invigorating blood circulation, promoting menstrual flow, dispelling blood stasis and relieving pain. Zhang Yan thought Diao Chan was taking this medicine because of menstrual irregularities, so he didn't take it seriously.

After that, Zhang Yan specially asked a doctor to conduct regular diagnosis for Diao Chan, just because he was afraid that something might happen to Diao Chan's body.

However, just yesterday, he accidentally discovered that Diao Chan was drinking this medicine, but Diao Chan's body was normal, why did he keep drinking this medicine?Just in time for Fan Ah to come back, Zhang Yan called Fan Ah and asked him a question or two.

When he learned that safflower had the effect of abortion, Zhang Yan immediately thought that he and Diao Chan had been together day and night for more than a year, but Diao Chan had never been pregnant. Went to Diao Chan's mansion.

Diao Chan had already achieved a little success in learning women's red, and was sewing clothes at this time, when Zhang Yan came with Fan A, his face was also a little ugly, so he asked, "What's wrong with the general, his face is so ugly?"

Zhang Yan said coldly: "I'm worried about your body feeling unwell, so I specially asked the imperial physician to make a diagnosis."

After finishing speaking, Zhang Yan gave Fan Ah a wink, and Fan Ah immediately walked up to Diao Chan, and said respectfully: "Madam, please extend your hand to accommodate the number one pulse of the official number one!"

Diao Chan became nervous, put down the things in her hands, and said to Zhang Yan: "General, this concubine is not sick, why do you need to get a pulse?"

"Whether you are sick or not is not up to you. Ah Fan, take your pulse!" Zhang Yan said coldly with a straight face.
