The Warriors of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 42 Getting the Support of the Zhen Family

After Wei Xie left, Dongfang Sheng planned to bid farewell to Cai Yan, who knew that he ran into Cai Yong who was coming back with a smile on his face at the door.

"Good news for Colonel Dongfang!" Cai Yong said to Dongfang Sheng after getting off the carriage. "I have already persuaded Grand Master Dong to release Zhen Jia tomorrow, and at the same time he also promised not to forcefully marry Zhen Mi."

"Okay! Haha, thank you Cai Zhonglang!" Dongfang Sheng smiled excitedly, "I really want to get drunk with Cai Langzhong!"

"Okay, let's have a good drink tonight. I, Cai Yong, also hope to hear Captain Dongfang's famous saying, 'Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world'!" Cai Yong patted Dongfang Sheng's hand excitedly. shoulder said.

Even though Dongfang Sheng was so thick-skinned, Cai Yong said that he blushed. Naturally, Cai Yong didn't know the real reason for Dongfang Sheng's blushing. He thought Dongfang Sheng was being shy.

The two walked into Cai's mansion side by side, Cai Yan looked at the pairing of the two of them speechlessly, the old and the young, and shook his head with a smile.

At the wine table, Cai Yong talked eloquently about the court and the common people. He had his own unique insights, and Dongfang Sheng found that this Cai Yong could indeed be called a master of literature, and his literary talents were also extremely good. can feel it.

In order not to show his flaws, Dongfang Sheng also borrowed some classic quotes from later generations, which made Cai Yong's evaluation of him a little higher, and Cai Yong even said that he would go to court Han Xiandi to make Dongfang Sheng a chariot general tomorrow.

"Tenglong have another drink!" Cai Yong's hand holding the wine glass was already limp.

Although Dongfang Sheng was a little dizzy, he didn't feel drunk yet.

This Cai Yong is a man of true temperament. After chatting for a while, Dongfang Sheng also developed a feeling of chatting with Cai Yong with his comrades in arms.

The drowsy Dongfang Sheng fell asleep lying on the table. After traveling all night to Chang'an and going through this series of stimulations, Dongfang Sheng finally got a little tired.

It's just that Dongfang Sheng forgot that he had promised Zhen Mi to tell her as soon as he had news, which made Zhen Mi, who was already anxious, even more restless.

There are two people in Zhen's residence who are very anxious, one is Zhen Mi and the other is that Zhen Hao.

what to do?what to do?Zhen Hao walked back and forth in front of the oil lamp with great anxiety. Although Cai Yong told Dong Zhuo, Zhen Hao didn't know all this, and Zhen Jia was not released.

I'd better let the lady go first, otherwise she won't be able to leave tomorrow!Zhen Hao made up his mind to let Zhen Mi go first.

Zhen Hao, who made up his mind, stuffed some gold and silver treasures into a package and rushed to find Zhen Mi.

Zhen Hao came to the door of Zhen Mi's room and saw that the oil lamp was still on, then knocked on the door and said, "Miss is I, Zhen Hao."

There was no sound or reaction in the room.

"Miss, don't do stupid things!" Zhen Hao was startled and immediately kicked open the door and barged in.

Zhen Mi, who was sitting on the dressing table in a daze, looked at Zhen Hao who had barged in with some astonishment and said, "What happened?"

When Zhen Hao saw that she was safe and sound but her eyes were blank, Zhen Mi felt a pain in her heart and said: "Miss, go quickly! Take these things with me and take you out of the underground passage."

Zhen Hao stuffed the package to Zhen Mi and said, but some rich people or big families will build some tunnels in their mansions to lead directly to the outside, and Zhen Jia knows about this secret road in Zhen's mansion, Zhen Hao also knows about it, only Zhen Mi doesn't know.

"I'm not leaving. Dongfang Sheng said he would give me an answer tonight, and I will wait for him here." Zhen Mi said firmly.

"Dongfang Sheng is just a lieutenant under Zhonglang General Niu Fu. Although he is brave and resourceful, his foundation is not stable now. Do you really think he can turn the world around and save the master and you?" Zhen Hao said a little Said anxiously.

"You and Uncle didn't believe in his strength before. I was misled by you once, but this time I will choose to believe to the end, even if I die without regret!" Zhen Mi's eyes suddenly showed an extremely firm look, while she Put Zhen Hao's package on the table.

"But miss, you are innocent because of the master, you are innocent." Zhen Hao said sadly, "Don't worry about Dongfang Sheng, it's time now, do you think Dongfang Sheng will come over? "

"I've made up my mind, Hao Bo, you don't need to say more." Zhen Mi insisted.

Zhen Hao also knew that once Zhen Mi's character determined that eight cows would not be able to pull back, he could only sigh and sit at the table in a daze.

At this time, in a prison in Chang'an City, a middle-aged man with fluffy hair and a bloated figure in silk clothes looked up to the sky and sighed: "I Zhen Jia is not greedy enough, and I ended up like this in the end."

Although he is in a state of desperation now, there is not much timidity in his eyes, but more emotion for this incident.After all, the Zhen family was a big family that ruled the grain industry of the entire Eastern Han Dynasty. No matter what, Zhen Jia would not lose his composure, but he felt a little unwilling.

Zhen Jia roared in his heart: I am not willing to stop here, and I am not willing to let the Zhen family fall under my hands. With my Zhen Jia's talents, I will definitely be able to push the Zhen family to a new glory in this world.

But all of this will end after dawn, which makes the ambitious Zhen Jia feel unwilling, but even if he is unwilling, so what?Although he is wealthy, he has no official position, and he has no reliable backer.

Coupled with the fact that he provoked Dong Zhuo, who was in power, he basically had nothing left to do.

The sky was already slightly bright, and Zhen Jia's heart was even more miserable. Although he had accepted his fate, he always thought that a miracle would happen.

It's a pity that Zhen Jia was the first to wait for two sturdy Xiliang soldiers walking towards his cell, but he didn't notice that behind the two Xiliang soldiers was a strong, heroic young man.

Forget it, everything evaporates, success or failure turns around!Zhen Jia's heart was ashamed.

Whoa!
Two soldiers from Xiliang opened the cell door and shouted, "Come out, Zhen Jia!"

coming!Zhen Jia got up and walked out the door, his steps were a little staggering.

Two Xiliang soldiers opened his handshackles and ankle chains, and Zhen Jia said in a daze, "You two officials, can you let me have a full meal before leaving?"

Zhen Jia hasn't eaten properly these days. In order to force Dong Zhuo to let the jailer give him rotten food every day, Zhen Jia, who was used to rich clothes and fine food since childhood, basically stuffs it in and then spits it out. I was so hungry that I pinched my nose and drank a little.

Before his execution, Zhen Jia wanted to eat a good meal so that he would have less regrets on the road.

"I still want to have a good meal, no way!" One of the Xiliang soldiers pushed Zhen Jia hard, pointed at the young man behind them and said, "Follow him!"

Zhen Jia said in despair: "Just give me a mouthful of hot food, and I'll give you a lot of money, really!"

"Let's go, we're not in the mood to argue with you!" Another Xiliang soldier kicked Zhen Jia hard and said.

Zhen Jia was kicked and gnawed at the mud, but he didn't dare to resist, but got up helplessly, then dusted off the dust on his body and returned to normal.

Since there is no way to have another good meal, forget it.Zhen Jia can be regarded as someone who can afford to let go.

"Follow me." The young man behind the two Xiliang soldiers said to Zhen Jia.
