Chapter 221: Na Cai Yan


Just when Niu Fu led the Xiliang army to attack Chang'an, Liu Cheng moved the troops stationed in Ba to Xi County.

However, the news soon came and the court was in panic.

Wang Yun reported to the emperor and sent The ministers were invited to go to court to discuss countermeasures.

In Weiyang Palace, Wang Yun said to Liu Cheng: "General Liu, now you have also seen that it is not that the imperial court does not want to recruit the Xiliang army to surrender, but that the Xiliang army wants to avenge Dong Zhuo.

Niu Fu has led his army to kill him, so please invite General Liu Lead your army to defend the enemy."

Liu Cheng said, "Your Majesty, Mr.

Wang, it's not that I, Liu Cheng, don't want to send troops.

Part of the Northern Army is stationed in Bingzhou and Hedong, and another part has been encircling and suppressing the Baibo Army.

The rest are the old, weak, sick and disabled.

I have already They have been ordered to garrison Xi County.

Even if I lead my army to meet the enemy, there is no chance of winning against Niu Fu's elite Xiliang army."

"I heard that the Bingzhou Army under General Lu and the Xiliang Army under General Li are both brave and good at fighting.

Why can't they be sent to fight?

I thought that General Lu should be the main general and General Li Su should be the vanguard to fight against Niu Fu's army."

Wang Yun's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.

Liu Cheng didn't want to go, and he couldn't force him to go, but he couldn't ignore it when Niu Fu's army came to kill him.

He was the number one contributor to Dong Zhuo's death.

Niu Fu and others wanted to break through Chang'an.

The first person to be killed was Wang Yun.

Wang Yun immediately said to Liu Bian: "Then please issue an order from your majesty.

Order Lu Bu as the general and Li Su as the vanguard to fight against Niu Fu's army."

Liu Bian then ordered Lu Bu and Li Su to lead their troops to fight against Niu Fu.

On April 20, pioneer Li Su led an army of 10,000 across the Weishui River and encountered Niu Fu's army in the northeast of Xiagui.

The two sides immediately set up their battle formations.

Li Su had few soldiers and was unable to defeat him.

He was defeated by Niu Fu's army and fled back to Chang'an with only a small number of remaining soldiers.

There was a sudden panic in the government and the public.

In order to stabilize people's hearts, Wang Yun issued a secret order to Lü Bu.

Lü Bu used the defeat as an excuse to hold Li Su accountable, killed Li Su, restored the power of the army, and led the army back to Chang'an.

Li Su was killed, but the actual problem could not be solved.

Niu Fu's army was still approaching Chang'an.

Wang Yun and others gathered in Weiyang Hall again.

Liu Bian asked: "My lords, what should we do now?"

Wang Yun stood up and cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, there is no need to panic.

I thought we could send Hu Zhen to lead the army to fight against Niu Fu."

Hu Zhen was from the Xiliang Army, and Wang Yun had always been worried about him.

Leaving this person in Chang'an City would be too risky, so he just took this opportunity to let them go dog-eat-dog.

Liu Bian asked Liu Cheng: "What does the emperor think?"

Liu Cheng stood up and clasped his fists and said: "Your Majesty, I received the envoy sent by Duan Xuan yesterday.

Duan Xuan intends to surrender to the court and respect Your Majesty.

I thought I could order Hu Zhen and Duan Xuan to attack Niu Fu from the east and west."

The ministers were overjoyed when they heard this.

Although Duan Yan was Dong Zhuo's general, he was also the younger brother of the late Taiwei Duan Ying.

The Duan family had been loyal for generations.

Now that Dong Zhuo was dead, it was reasonable for Duan Yan to submit to the imperial court.

Wang Yun was overjoyed and said: "This is very good.

Your Majesty can give Duan Xuan an official title."

Liu Bian immediately said: "Okay, I will confer Duan Yan as General Zhenyuan and order him to lead his army to attack Niu Fu from the east."

"yes" Early the next morning, after seeing off Hu Zhen's army at the gate of the east city, Liu Cheng returned to the general's mansion.

As soon as he entered the lobby, he saw Da Qiao, Xiao Qiao and Cai Yan waiting in the lobby.

Liu Cheng was surprised and said: "Why are you here?"

Da Qiao said: "Husband, Mr.

Cai was imprisoned by Wang Yun's order.

I heard that Wang Yun had promised to kill Mr.

Cai in prison.

Sister Cai came here today to ask her husband to find a way to rescue Mr.

Cai. " Xiao Qiao continued: "Yes, husband, Mr.

Cai was forced to have no choice but to accept the humiliation and follow Dong Zhuo.

Do you think Wang Yun is the same?

Husband, please think of a way to save Mr.

Cai."

"The lobby is where official business is conducted.

How can we talk about this kind of thing here?

You go back.

I will go over for lunch later and we will talk about this matter then."

After Liu Cheng finished speaking, he waved his hand to drive them away.

The three girls had no choice but to exit the lobby and go to the backyard.

Xiao Qiao kept comforting Cai Yan: "Sister Cai, don't worry, as long as your husband sets out, he will definitely rescue Mr.

Cai."

At noon, Liu Cheng finished his official duties and came to the inner courtyard.

Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao had already prepared wine and food.

When Liu Cheng came back, the three women squatted down and made a blessing ceremony together.

"Everyone, sit down and let's talk after dinner."

"yes" This meal was rather boring.

After the dishes were cleared, Xiao Qiao was impatient and couldn't help but said: "Husband, I'd like to tell you if I can save you."

Liu Cheng saw the three women looking at him, especially Cai Yan, with expectant and anxious expressions on their faces, and said: "It can be saved, but why should I save Cai Yong?

He is Dong Zhuo's confidant, and Dong Zhuo has He had great trust in him and promoted him one after another.

Everyone in the government and the public knows that he spared no effort to work for Dong Zhuo.

I have no excuse.

Logically speaking, I should be the same as Wang Yun in advocating killing him.

If I save him, it will not be in line with my political stance.

The people under my command will think that I can't distinguish between right and wrong. , I can’t tell the difference between loyalty and treachery.”

Xiao Qiao said: "Husband, let's not say whether there is a reason or an excuse.

Just say whether you want to save him or not."

Liu Chengdao: "I don't want to" Xiao Qiao was furious: "How could you do this?

Sister Cai is our good sister, how could you ignore death?"

Liu Cheng spread his hands and said: "She is your good sister, but she is not my good sister.

Cai Yong's life and death have nothing to do with me.

How can officialdom affairs be arbitrarily controlled by human relationships?"

Cai Yan, however, was more understanding of the world than Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao.

She asked, "General, how can we save my father?

Please tell me clearly what conditions we have."

Liu Cheng shook his head and said: "Forget it, I'd better not say it.

I'm worried that Miss Cai won't be able to accept it, so it's better not to say it."

Cai Yan said firmly: "General, please tell me, as long as Cai Yan can do it, I will never refuse."

Big Qiao and Xiao Qiao supported each other: "Husband, you can't make arbitrary conditions, don't go too far, otherwise our sisters will make you look good."

Liu Chengdao: "Actually, it's very simple.

As long as Miss Cai marries me as my concubine, the matter will be solved.

Since Miss Cai is my concubine, Cai Yong will naturally be my father-in-law.

There is no need for me to come forward.

Wang Yun must be wary and dare not do harm.

Even He will also release people obediently.”

Silence But the three of them reacted quickly.

Xiao Qiao was so angry that he jumped up and shouted: "Liu Cheng, Sister Cai's family is facing a disaster now.

How can you take advantage of others' danger?

I am so blind."

Liu Cheng looked innocent: "You don't blame me for this.

You asked me to say it.

How can I say that I took advantage of others' danger?"

Da Qiao also denounced: "How dare you say that you have no wrong thoughts about Sister Cai?"

Liu Cheng said quickly: "I don't dare, I don't dare.

Miss Cai has outstanding literary talent, but I am just a rough person.

I have always felt ashamed in front of Miss Cai, so how can I dare to think anything wrong?"

"Hmph, you are self-aware."

Xiao Qiao seemed to have remembered something and walked up to Liu Cheng and asked: "I understand, you used this method to deceive us sisters.

In order to rescue us, my brother had to betroth us to you, so you can easily You got our sisters, the whole thing was planned by you, right?"

Liu Cheng's face looked a little ugly, as if he had been greatly wronged: "What are you talking about?

Hu Zhen is Dong Zhuo's man.

Can I instigate him to arrest you two?

Can he listen to me?

I am saving people with good intentions.

In the end, we ended up like this.

Just treat what I just said as if I didn’t say it.

Whether Cai Yong dies or not has nothing to do with me.

You have to save people and find others, hum."

Cai Yan felt very sorry to see that Liu Cheng, Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao were suspicious of each other because of this incident.

He hurriedly said: "Da Qiao, Xiao Qiao, I believe that the general is not such a person.

I will give it to you."

You're causing trouble, General.

Do you think this will work?

I promise to be your concubine, and you can help me rescue my father.

After my father is released from prison, you can write a divorce letter to me and divorce me.

Since then, my father has been saved and will not give me anything.

The general and his wife cause trouble” Liu Cheng didn't expect that Cai Yan could think of this method.

Just as he was about to agree, Da Qiao said anxiously: "Sister Cai, you are crazy.

You have already lost your husband earlier.

If you are divorced again, your life will be ruined.

No way." no"

Cai Yan smiled helplessly, "At this point, as long as my father can be rescued, what does my personal reputation mean?

I've been like this all my life, how can I be so bad and invite the general and two sisters?

Once everything is done, I will never marry again.

I am willing to work as a cow and horse for my two sisters in the general's mansion, and serve them around."

Having said this, even if the Qiao sisters were worried about Cai Yong snatching their husbands from them, they could no longer object at this time.

Da Qiao had no choice but to say to Liu Cheng: "Husband, since Sister Cai said so, then Please husband, please help me with this."

"It's all you who have been good people.

No matter what I do or not, I'm not a human being inside or out."

Liu Cheng stood up angrily and walked away.

Liu Cheng immediately arranged for people to prepare for the marriage.

The marriage should not be too simple and should be known to everyone.

The purpose was of course to let Wang Yun and others know that he married Cai Yan, so that they would be afraid to attack Cai Yong. .

When they were busy getting married to Cai Yan, something unexpected happened.

Emperor Liu Bian actually sent someone to announce the decree and canonized Cai Yan as Mrs.

Tianhua.

At this time, both Cai Yan and Qiao's daughter were dumbfounded.

Since the marriage between Liu Cheng and Cai Yan was recognized by the emperor and canonized by the emperor himself, the divorce letter could not be written, otherwise it would be a crime of disrespect.

"I'd better move back to my parents' house."

Cai Yan could only make this decision when he couldn't think of any other way.

Only by leaving the General's Mansion could he distance himself from Liu Cheng and reassure the Qiao sisters.

Now the Qiao sisters couldn't keep it on their faces.

Everyone loves face.

Some women love face more than men.

This is what the Qiao sisters are like now.

Da Qiao said: "Sister, wait a minute.

Isn't it okay for my sister to move back?"

The world thinks that our sisters are so strong and domineering that we cannot tolerate my sister.

This is the end of the matter.

For now, we can only take advantage of my husband."

Liu Cheng exclaimed sadly: "You sisters are the good guys.

In the end, it seems that I, Liu Cheng, got a huge advantage.

A toad has eaten swan meat.

Humans should not be like this.

This is undesirable."

"Kekeke" The three sisters were immediately amused by Liu Cheng's appearance
