Chapter 40 The rise and fall of the world
Cai Yong is living a very satisfied life now, at least in the current situation, he is temporarily satisfied, because before this he has been depressed.

After Dong Zhuo came to power, he was promoted to three ranks in a row. Now Cai Yong is a general of Zuo Zhonglang, and he can be named Gaoyang Township Marquis. Although Dong Zhuo once used Cai Yong's family to threaten him to go to the court as an official, Cai Yong also Indeed, he was respected by Dong Zhuo, and Cai Yong could occasionally persuade Dong Zhuo to change his mind. It can be said that Cai Yong is very prosperous now.

It's just that Cai Yong is frowning and thinking in his study at this time. He is a talented and intelligent person and he naturally understands that Dong Zhuo's final fate will not be very good. Now he is worrying about his future.

"Daddy, are you worrying about being alone here again?" Cai Yong's daughter Cai Yan, who later became Cai Wenji, came in with a bowl of tea.

She is not particularly beautiful, but she is outstanding among ordinary people. The most important thing is that she has a pair of firm eyes and a refined atmosphere that has been in her ears since she was a child. These make her unique.

Why!Cai Yong sighed and said, "I hope you can leave Chang'an City so that you can be safer."

Cai Yan was rejected by the Wei family because her first husband Wei Zhongdao died but the two had no children. With a resolute personality, she couldn't bear the insult of the Wei family, so she went back to her natal family and lived at home.

"Daddy has always done things with a clear conscience. Even if he was working under Dong Zhuo, he would not do anything against his wishes. Who would speak ill of Daddy? What's more, Daddy's acquaintances are well-known all over the world. No matter who you are, you must respect Daddy." Cai Yan's eyes were full of admiration.

"Okay Xiaoyan, since you don't want to leave, then stay here first." Cai Yong waved his hand weakly and said, "I want to be alone for a while, you go out first."

"Okay, Daddy." Cai Yan put down the tea and retreated.

Daddy spent a lot of time thinking about the affairs of the court, but it's a pity that the current court is already dilapidated, Cai Yan sighed in his heart.

Seeing that Cai Yan was gone, Cai Yong began to think about himself again, but at this time the door was pushed open again.

"Yan'er, do you have anything else to do?" Cai Yong looked up in surprise, his eyes widened and he wanted to shout.

A young man with a strong figure exuding a sturdy air was closing the door with a smile and said: "If I were you, I would never shout out. My name is Dongfang Sheng, because I have heard Cai Zhonglang's literary talent for a long time. Once, I came to visit Cai Zhonglang specially."

snort!Cai Yong snorted and didn't speak. It's useless to say anything when someone is a sword and I'm a fish. He, an old man with no strength to restrain a chicken, can't beat a strong young man like Dongfang Sheng.

"I think Cai Zhonglang should know that Grand Master Dong recently imprisoned Zhen Jia from the Zhen family, and he plans to marry Zhen Mi tomorrow." Dongfang Sheng went straight to Cai Yong and said.

"So what if you know?" Cai Yong said angrily, "Although Zhen Jia is quite wronged, whoever asked him to pluck the hair on the tiger's head, if he wants to make money from Grand Master Dong, he is courting death."

Sure enough, this Cai Yong doesn't like Zhen Jia's kind of mercenary, Dongfang Shengxin said.

"Cai Zhonglang's words are wrong. At this time, the imperial court should pay more attention to merchants. When the famine is rampant, only those big merchants can transfer food from other places, and then the imperial court will come forward to sell it to the people at a low price. In this way, it will not be possible. Saved many lives?" Dongfang Sheng said eloquently.

Cai Yong glanced at Dongfang Sheng with some disdain and said: "What a big tone, do you think you will definitely let Zhen Jia transfer food from other places? And you are sure that the food will be distributed to the people? Although you You are quite talented in war, but now Chang'an City doesn't need war, what it needs is food!"

Dongfang Sheng, how do you, a warrior, understand state affairs?Cai Yong despised it in his heart.

"Can you Cai Langzhong change the situation of the court with that wonderful pen?" Dongfang Sheng asked.

"Excessive words!" Cai Yong's beard trembled with anger.

This Dongfang Sheng was sharp-tongued and sharp-tongued, Cai Yong was secretly startled.

"Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world!" Dongfang Sheng's eyes showed a hint of excitement, "But what's the use of talking about it? To change the general trend of the world, only the barrel of a gun can do it. What do you think Cai Zhonglang ?”

Dongfang Sheng unceremoniously used other people's famous sentences. This is why modern people not only have advanced knowledge, but also have some poetic sentences that the ancients did not have.

"Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world!" Cai Yong murmured as his eyes lit up, and the way he looked at Dongfang Sheng suddenly became different. "I didn't expect, I didn't expect that you, a general with a spear and a stick, could say such exciting words. It seems that you are definitely not a thing in the pool!"

"I've decided to help you, and I hope you can do things for the court and the people based on this principle in the future!" Cai Yong agreed, "I'll go find Grand Master Dong right now."

That's it?Dongfang Sheng didn't even have time to react, Cai Yong agreed.

Although talented scholars in this era are arrogant, once they recognize you, they will speak well and be very enthusiastic. This is their advantage and their disadvantage.

"Thank you Cai Zhonglang!" Dongfang Sheng said excitedly.

Before coming here, he thought about how to persuade Cai Yong, and even thought about threatening him with Cai Yong's family members, but in the end Dongfang Sheng gave up this idea, because he didn't want to use such a method to deal with a talented intellectual molecular.

Just as Cai Yong was about to leave the door, his daughter Cai Yan walked over. When Cai Yan saw Dongfang Sheng, his face changed drastically: "Who are you?"

"This is Dongfang Sheng, who was recently famous in Chang'an City for repelling thousands of Yellow Turbans with a hundred elites." Cai Yong's tone changed drastically from disdain to appreciation.

"Are you the Dongfang Sheng who drew with Lu Bu as soon as he came to Chang'an City, and then broke into Dong's mansion alone?" Cai Yan's eyes were full of curiosity.

"You two can have a good chat, I have to leave first." Cai Yong hurriedly left with the mentality of saving lives.

"I am Dongfang Sheng, but I am nothing special like ordinary people. If there is something special, it is that I work harder and have more luck than others." Dongfang Sheng said with a smile.

Puchi!Cai Yan couldn't help laughing.

"It's interesting what you say." Cai Yan said after laughing.

Many people, especially men, are either very good at pretending in front of Cai Yan, or they are dismissive. Cai Yan is used to seeing these two kinds of people, but he has never seen Dongfang Sheng. He is naturally curious.

Not shy, but with temperament, this Cai Yong's daughter really has the feeling of a lady from everyone.Dongfang Sheng looked at Cai Yan carefully with appreciative eyes and said with emotion.
