villain

Chapter 74

Xun Shuang and the others breathed a sigh of relief, looking at Dong Pi expressionlessly, but with contempt in their eyes.

Dong Zhuo?

Governor of Hedong, Lieutenant of Sili?It sounds very imposing, but to put it bluntly, it is just a son of a good family from six counties.A child from a family like Xun Shuang, or a celebrity like He Yong, really don't take Dong Zhuo seriously.How about General He Jin?Isn't it respectful to them?Idiot, I really am an idiot!

******
Who did Dong Bi remember?

Naturally, it was the famous daughter under Cai Yong's knee, Cai Yan.He doesn't know much about Cai Yan, he just remembers that Cai Yan once appeared in the storytelling book when Cao Cao attacked Hanzhong.Master Yuan Kuocheng spoke highly of this woman.

It seems that he created Hu Jia's [-]-beat tune later, and he was extremely intelligent, and his life experience was also very rough.

Besides, Dong Bi couldn't think of anything about Cai Yan anymore.Therefore, when he saw the young scholar, Dong Bi just flashed the name in his mind, and then there was no response, and he bowed to Cai Yong very respectfully.

Cai Yong did not show the attitude of Xun Shuang and others, but nodded very kindly, "It turns out that he is the son of Dong Dongdong, Yong is rude. However, it is not a matter for the son to kill so much in Yingchuan. Reasonable matter. If it is passed on to the imperial court, it may cause unnecessary troubles for Dong Dongdong. If the eunuch is in power, the son should be more cautious in his actions. Why don't you let the old man come forward for today's matter, and let it go like this? "

He glanced at Xun Shuang and the others, his tone seemed to be soliciting, but with an irreversible toughness.

Xun Shuang and He Yong were the leaders, so they were not very happy at first.But when Cai Yong mentioned the word eunuch, he suddenly came to his senses.

Dong Zhuo is indeed nothing special, but after all, he is the prefect of a locality, and he is also a captain of Sili, so he is also a high-ranking figure.In addition, this person has a close relationship with the great general, and the great general relied on the help of the eunuch to achieve what he is today.In the past two years, due to the efforts of the scholar-bureaucrats, there has been a gap between the general and the eunuch... If Dong Zhuo is angered because of today's incident, He Jin may even be angered.At that time, if the general and the eunuch join hands, the scholar-officials and Qingliu celebrities will really have no room to survive in the court.

Mr. Bo Jie, you really have sharp eyes!
At a glance, I can see the stakes here... After Xun Shuang and He Yong looked at each other, they nodded in agreement.

"Since Ciming has agreed, what about you, my lord?"

Why didn't Dong Bi know that Cai Yong was helping himself.It's just that he doesn't have the exquisite and clear thoughts of Xun Shuang and He Yong, so he doesn't understand why the dignified Master Cai helps him to speak?However, Dong Bi also knew that his father seemed to be beautiful, but in the eyes of scholar-bureaucrats, he was nothing.So, it's better to accept it when you see it.

"Boy is reckless, since everyone Cai said so, how dare you not follow?"

"Okay, okay, okay..." Cai Yong laughed happily and nodded repeatedly, "That's good, that's good!"

"Wait!"

He Yong frowned, and said first: "Mr. Bo Jie came forward to mediate, how dare we not listen? It's just that Yingchuan is a place where celebrities from all over the world gather, and it's a place where scholars can stay...Mr. Dong Taishou, you should leave early. Good to go."

Between the words, there is still that unattainable arrogance.

Dong Bi was so angry that he was about to speak.But Cai Yong nodded and said, "What Bo Qiu said has some truths."

Even Cai Yong said that, Dong Bi was so angry, but he couldn't express it.

With a wry smile, he couldn't help feeling sad.The power of this scholar-bureaucrat is really domineering... No wonder some people say that this general and scholar-bureaucrat are natural enemies.Military generals look down on the powerlessness of scholar-bureaucrats, and they can only boast; while scholar-bureaucrats also think that military commanders are a vulgar group with well-developed limbs and simple minds.

Stepping in to salute Cai Yong again, Dong Bi suppressed his anger and said, "In that case, I will leave!"

After finishing speaking, he turned around and ordered someone to lead the horse, "Let's take a detour and camp in the wild tonight."

The followers all showed dissatisfaction, but since Dong Bi opened his mouth as a follower, what else could he say?

In this way, a group of people walked along the street to the outside of Yingchuan City.

After Dong Bi and the others disappeared, Xun Shuang and the others stepped forward to salute Cai Yong, "Mr. Bo Jie, why are you here?"

"Old and tired!"

Cai Yong said with a hearty smile: "It's okay to stay in Luoyang all day, so I might as well go home and plan to return to Chen to stay for a while."

"Mr. Bo Jie, what are you talking about? You are very energetic, why do you have the heart to retreat?"

He Yong's words made Cai Yong look sad.Xun Shuang has naturally heard that Cai Yong was dismissed by the emperor a few years ago, but he is still valued by the emperor.After all, the emperor was taught by Cai Yong back then, and to put it bluntly, he was the emperor's teacher.

It's just that Shi Changshi's energy is too great!

Although Cai Yong survived the catastrophe, he is always missed by the ten permanent attendants.Even when Cai Yong married a daughter last year, Shi Changshi had many incidents.Although Luo Yang is good, but the treacherous officials are in power.Even if Cai Yong has great abilities, he has nowhere to display them.

Knowing that Cai Yong was not in a good mood, Xun Shuang gently tugged He Yong.

Then He Yong is also a celebrity, and he is usually outspoken, but it does not mean that he is unsophisticated.As soon as Xun Shuang pulled him, he immediately understood the inside story.Immediately felt guilty.Whatever was in his mind, he immediately said it, "Mr. Bo Jie, it's good to take a break, it's good to have a rest... In the future, he will make a comeback."

Xun Shuang looked at He Yong helplessly, but Cai Yong laughed.

"Mr. Bo Jie, Shuang has just arrived in Yingchuan and is meeting with his friends. Since you are here, why don't you come together?"

Cai Yong shook his head and said with a smile: "Ci Ming, you are being polite... Yong is also a person who treats crimes now, and he dare not hurt your friends. It just happened just now. After a long day's journey, I was exhausted. I was about to rest. I won't bother you guys anymore."

Xun Shuang and the others didn't force it, "If that's the case, then don't bother Mr. I don't know how long Mr. intends to stay in Yingchuan?"

"Oh, tomorrow morning, I'm leaving!"

A group of people suddenly showed disappointment, and He Yong said: "Can't you stay a little longer, sir? It happens to be a lecture in the academy, so we can listen to your teachings."

"Boqiu, you are welcome. You and I are both unsuccessful people. How can we teach you? It's just that Yong is anxious to go back to his hometown to recuperate... How about this? If he is kind in the future, when Boqiu comes to Chenliu, Yong will be the host. At that time we Let's talk again?"

"In this case, I will definitely visit in the future."

Xun Shuang and He Yong didn't insist anymore, they respectfully sent Cai Yong to the restaurant, and they returned to the banquet.It's just that the mood is quite different from before.

******
Back in the guest room, Cai Yong sat down on the couch, leaned against the cushion and closed his eyes to rest.

Two teenagers were holding books beside them, reading aloud.Cai Yong smiled and nodded from time to time to express his appreciation.

Suddenly, the thin boy put down the scroll in his hand.

As soon as he stopped, the burly young man also put down his book.

Cai Yong opened his eyes, looked at the thin boy and said, "Feng Xiao, what are you thinking?"

The thin young man smiled shyly, "Sir, Jia remembered something... something that happened at this time last year."

"Oh?"

Cai Yong asked, "What's the matter?"

"At this time last year, the Dong and Wei families almost got married. The Wei family once sent a team to Lintao to greet their relatives, but...it is said that the leader is also a guy with a hammer, nicknamed 'Mr. Gongzi'. I just saw Dong's Liang family Son, Jia remembered that 'Master'. Since last year, that 'Master' seems to have disappeared in the vast crowd."

The burly young man's eyes lit up, "Fengxiao means..."

The thin boy shook his head, "Jia didn't say anything."

Cai Yong showed a state of contemplation, and after a while he sighed and said: "I also have the impression that Feng Xiao mentioned this matter. If Dong Wei can get married, it would be a beautiful thing. At least the court is clean, and it is also in Sili. I was able to get help. It’s a pity that things didn’t work out...Feng Xiao, you are smart and cunning, and you have a sharp mind, which is a good thing. But what you just said is a little bit... Although the Dong family is not a family, they are also meritorious ministers Dong Zhuo was supported by Taiwei Zhongsong back then, but he made a lot of meritorious service. You don't have evidence, so you can't talk nonsense. Besides, Dong Wei's marriage is only good for the Dong family. I really can't think of any dissatisfaction with the Dong family. You must think twice when you speak in the future."

"Students are taught!"

"Looking at the actions of Ciming and others today, I am really worried. Ciming and Boqiu are both knowledgeable people, but they also dismiss a good family like Dong Zhuo. As everyone knows, people like Dong Zhuo are of course born with internal and external troubles in the court. Humble, but it has already become a climate. If they are excluded from the court again, I am afraid that disaster will happen sooner or later. This kind of people can only be induced, not blindly suppressed. If they are used well, then we will wait help."

"Sir, are you interested in the Liang family of the Dong family just now?"

"Interesting... Hehe, I don't know much about martial arts, and I don't know much about that kid. But judging from his performance, he was tolerant at the beginning, and he acted very calmly; afterward, he was even more decisive in attacking, with the demeanor of a general. And most of his entourage are brave men who are good at fighting... By the way, that child said that he once escaped from the siege of 10 people in Xiqiang? I don’t know if it’s true? If so, you When you meet him in the future, you must not underestimate him."

The two nodded, but neither spoke.

Cai Yong smiled and said: "Feng Xiao, you have been studying with me since you were eight years old. I have already taught you what I know all these years. Yingchuan is your hometown. I will set off tomorrow. It is enough to have Yuan Tan to accompany you. Let’s get together with your parents. You must keep in mind that there are many capable people in the world. Although you have learned a lot from me, you must continue to work hard. I have a letter here, and you will take this letter to visit Yingchuan Academy later. Listen more and learn more... If you have the opportunity, go out and walk more."

The thin boy was stunned, "Sir, did the student do something wrong? Why did you drive the student away?"

"Hehe, I have three specialties in my life. Calligraphy, painting and scriptures are learned by Yuan Tan; qin rhythms are inherited by Zhao Ji. However, what Yong is most proud of is the strategy of war and the art of combining vertical and horizontal, which was taught by a different person when he was young. Sigh by nature is upright, although smart but not flexible, Zhao Ji's daughter is not suitable for learning. This technique is now taught to Feng Xiao, how can I blame you?"

"Can……"

"The tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop. The child wants to be raised but the relatives don't wait. You have been away from home for many years, so you should be more filial to your parents. But Yingchuan has many capable people and strangers, and you can also make more friends. Yong has a message for you. : The river is so big because it can gather hundreds of rivers. Feng Xiao always kept in mind that learning from others' strengths will make great things possible in the future."

The thin boy nodded: "Students should remember the teacher's teaching today!"
