The Necromancer of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 116 No Young Master Can't Solve It

Jiang Gan returned to the tent outside the royal court.

Hu Chuquan agreed to send Cai Yan here, and he didn't need to do anything extra.

Not long after returning the account, the guard reported: "The Hun Youxian King is asking to see you."

Jiang Gan ordered: "Please come in."

The guard lifted the curtain and Qubei walked in.

After seeing the ceremony, he asked Jiang Gan: "When will the envoy return to Yecheng?"

"Whenever Cai Zhaoji arrives, I will leave."

"I've sent someone to ask for it, and it will be delivered in a moment." Qu Bei said, "There is something I don't understand. Will the envoy explain it?"

"Youxian King, please speak." Jiang Gan signaled him to continue.

Qu Bei asked, "Is it because of Cai Yan that Yuan Xianxin ordered the envoy to come to Wang Ting?"

"Besides Cai Zhaoji, why else?" Jiang Gan looked puzzled.

"Gao Gan is also in the royal court." Qu Bei asked, "The envoy doesn't recognize him?"

"Whether he is here or not has anything to do with me?" Jiang Gan replied indifferently: "Young Master is just explaining, bring back Cai Zhaoji."

"Gao Gan was once an enemy of Yuan Xianxin, and he came to the Xiongnu to borrow troops." Qubei asked, "Don't Yuan Xianxin want his head at all?"

Jiang Gan smiled and shook his head: "Before I left Yecheng, Young Master Ti didn't mention him."

The calmer he is, the more uncertain he is going to be.

The guard outside the account reported: "Miss Cai is here."

Cai Yan is not young, and even gave birth to children when he arrived in the Huns.

The guard called her Miss, Jiang Gan had explained in advance, just to show that the Yuan family did not recognize her as Liu Bao's woman.

"I'm going to see Cai Zhaoji." Jiang Gan threw a word to Qu Bei and walked out of the tent.

Outside the tent, several Hun warriors surrounded a woman in her 20s and waited there.

The woman was as thin as a stick, her eyes were empty and lifeless on her vicissitudes of life, her thin body had almost no flesh, and even her chest was flat.

It can be seen that her life in the Huns was not going well.

She is Cai Yan who Yuan Xu wants to take back to the Central Plains.

In order to verify Cai Yan's identity, Jiang Gan said, "May I ask if it's Cai Zhaoji?"

"Exactly." Cai Yan replied.

"Did Miss Zhaoji write poetry in the Huns?" Jiang Gan asked again.

"I have done "Poetry of Sadness and Indignation" and "Eighteen Beats of Hu Jia"."

"Miss, please recite a few words." Jiang Gan made a request.

He has never met Cai Yan, and the most direct way to verify his identity is her poems.

Although there are many women in the royal court of the Huns.

No matter whether the women from the Central Plains or the Xiongnu women who were captured were not as talented as Cai Yan.

Cai Yan first recited "Poetry of Sadness and Indignation", and then recited "Eighteen Beats of Escort".

Following Jiang Gan out of the tent, Qubei saw this scene with black lines all over his head.

Jiang Gan was also too cautious, in order not to make a mistake, he actually thought of this method.

Cai Yan recited the poem, and Jiang Gan greeted him again: "Miss Zhaoji, please enter the account."

Qubei said: "I sent the man here, but I have to report back to Da Shanyu."

"Youxian King, please let me go." Jiang Gan didn't have the slightest intention to keep him.

Go back to the royal court and report to Hu Chuquan about seeing Jiang Gan.

Hu Chuquan's face was gloomy, and he remained silent for a long time.

Liu Bao asked him, "Da Shanyu, what does Yuan Xianxin's emissary mean?"

"The envoy is not interested in high-ranking officials." Hu Chuquan looked puzzled, "Could it be that Yuan Xianxin really didn't take high-ranking officials seriously?"

"Could it be that there was a locust plague in Youzhou, and Yuan Xianxin didn't have the energy to pay attention to the senior officials?" Qu Bei said, "If that's the case, sending troops is absolutely necessary."

"Is Jiang Gan gone?" Hu Chuquan asked.

"Not yet." Quba replied.

"Take a team of warriors and escort them back to Yecheng." Hu Chuquan ordered: "Bring the high-ranking officials with you."

"Da Shanyu wants to hand over senior officials to Yuan Xianxin?" Liu Bao was astonished.

When Jiang Gan came to the royal court, he only exchanged two bolts of linen for Cai Yan, which made him feel very sad.

He wished that what Gao Gan said was the truth.

There was a plague of locusts in Youzhou, and if Yuan Xu was really unable to deal with it, it would indeed be a good opportunity for the Huns to send troops.

"Whether to hand over or not depends on how Youzhou is." Hu Chuquan said: "King Youxian should pay more attention when he arrives in Youzhou. If the plague of locusts is really difficult for Yuan Xianxin to deal with, you can kill Jiang Gan, Cai Yan and Gao Gan. bring back."

Qubei and Liu Bao understood what he meant.

If what Gao Gan said was true, the Xiongnu could send troops to the Central Plains and take advantage of the opportunity.

If you are lucky, you can even severely damage the Yuan family and force Yuan Xu to surrender.

If Youzhou is stable and there is no chance to enter the army, send high-ranking officials to Yecheng to make Yuan Xu owe him a favor.

After confirming Cai Yan's identity, Jiang Gan invited her into the tent.

Cai Yan is as thin as a stick, with dry and yellow skin. Although she is only 30 or [-] years old, she looks like a middle-aged woman in her early forties.

Jiang Gan looked at her: "What did Miss Zhaoji experience in the Huns?"

Cai Yan showed grief, and bowed: "Thank you Mr. Jiang for saving me. I don't know why you want to save my concubine?"

"Miss is a talented woman, how can you watch you suffer in the Huns?" Jiang Gan replied: "Miss, please prepare your luggage and set off with me."

"I won't take anything back with me." Cai Yan replied, "Everything here has nothing to do with me anymore."

Jiang Gan understood that she had suffered so much humiliation in the Huns, and anything she brought back would bring back memories.

The two of them were talking, when the guard outside the tent reported: "The Right Wise King of the Huns seeks an audience."

"I went to Beicai for a while, and came back to see me. What does Miss think he wants to do?" Jiang Gan asked Cai Yan.

Cai Yan replied: "It may be proposed to escort Jiang Gong back to the Central Plains."

"The Huns still have such kindness?" Jiang Gan asked with a smile.

"The Huns have always regarded themselves as upright." Cai Yan said: "The more people lack something, the more they will talk about it. Where people claim to be upright, they must be treacherous and deceitful."

Jiang Gan nodded and looked at Cai Yan with admiration.

The Huns have always said that the Central Plains people are treacherous.

They do things, but they never put everything they should do on the surface.

"Miss Zhaoji, please wait in the tent, I will go out to meet him." Jiang Gan left the tent.

Walking out of the tent, Jiang Gan found that there was a man tied up behind Qu Bei.

This person was wearing the armor of a big Han general, and when he saw Jiang Gan, he hummed coldly with a face full of humiliation, and turned his face aside.

"Youxian King, what does this mean?" Jiang Gan looked at the man, but asked Qubei.

"He is a high-ranking cadre." Qu Bei introduced: "Da Shanyu wants me to escort Jiang Gong back to Yecheng, and take him along with him."

"I came to the Xiongnu only for Cai Zhaoji." Jiang Gan said, "It's really a surprise that I can bring Gao Gan back."

"Da Shan Yu wishes to make peace with the Yuan family." Qu Bei replied, "It's just a meeting ceremony for high-ranking officials."

He then asked Jiang Gan: "When does Jiang Gong plan to leave?"

"I have nothing else to do in the Xiongnu." Jiang Gan replied, "Leave today."
