Chapter 725: The Land of Longxing

However, when Cao Liang saw her with her child, he envisioned him as Sima Yan.
However, Wang Yuanji's words picked up were clearly false. Obviously, at a critical moment, Wang Yuanji asked her family slave to take Sima Yan away, and she deliberately found a child to pretend to be Sima Yan, because Wang Yuanji knew that Cao Liang knew her. If she walked together, there would be little hope of escape. But if she ran away separately, especially after she took a child to attract Cao Liang's attention, Sima Yan and the others would be more likely to escape.
What a smart woman! Cao Liang couldn't help but look at Wang Yuanji again. He was indeed a talented woman from a famous family. At such a critical moment, he could finally be so calm, smart, scheming, and the courage to sacrifice his life to save his son. To be honest, Cao Liang was so upset that he really admired Wang Yuanji. It would be no exaggeration to call her the girl Zhuge.
The value of the hostage is very different when capturing Wang Yuanji and Sima Yan. Although Wang Yuanji is Sima Zhao's wife, brothers are like brothers and wives are like clothes in this era. Women have no status after all, and the Sima family will definitely not pay too much for Wang Yuanji.
Sima Yan is different. He is the only male member of the third generation of the Sima family. His rareness is comparable to a national treasure. Cao Liang takes him as his quality and may be able to ask the Sima family for a greater price, but now Cao Liang's plan has been completely ruined.
Cao Liang withdrew his sword in disappointment, smiled and said, "Mrs. Wang is good at making plans and means, but the man escaped. Why doesn't Mrs. Wang plan for himself?"
Wang Yuanji said proudly: "I have already put my life and death aside. As long as Yan'er can be safe and sound, what's wrong with me even if I die?"
Cao Liang called Ren Chaonan in, ordered him to take the boy down, and then said to Wang Yuanji: "The wife is very loving to her son. It is certainly awesome, but this move may cause danger to the son and the son, but I am afraid that life and death are unknown at this moment."
Wang Yuanji frowned slightly and said unbelievably: "Strange words."
Cao Liang laughed and said, "Don't believe it. Nowadays, Hanoi County is already a world. Even if the son is escorted by his family soldiers, it is very difficult to escape from this net of heaven and earth. Moreover, he has already ordered that if he encounters armed resistance, he will be killed without any consequences. These family soldiers will flee with the son, and they will be injured by mistake. The wife's intelligence may be misled by intelligence!"
Wang Yuanji's face changed slightly. What Cao Liang said was not false. What happened in the chaos, but Wang Yuanji could not know where Sima Yan fled. He could only worry about him secretly and prayed that he could return to Luoyang safely.
Cao Liang walked closer to her, smiled slightly and said, "Madam, we still have room for discussion on this matter."
Wang Yuanji was worried about Sima Yan's safety and was a little confused. At this time, she suddenly realized that Cao Liang had come over, and was even more panicked. She took a step back and found that she had reached the edge of the tent and had no choice but to retreat. In desperation, she suddenly took out a small dagger for self-defense from her sleeve, pointed at Cao Liang, and screamed: "Don't come over!"
However, she seemed to think that even if she took the dagger, she might not be Cao Liang's opponent, not to mention that the other party still had a sword in his hand, so she simply pointed the dagger at her heart and said, "If you take another step forward, I will show you!"
Cao Liang didn't expect that she would hide a dagger and kill him. He could only smile bitterly. Unexpectedly, Wang Yuanji's reaction would be so great that she had no evil intentions towards her. However, she had the idea of committing suicide. A woman who looked so weak was so strong in her bones.
But of course Cao Liang would not have any surprises for her. He had already lost such an important hostage as Sima Yan. If Wang Yuanji was killed, how could he threaten the Sima family?
Cao Liang took a step back and spread his hands and said, "Madam Wang, don't be impulsive, I have no malice." He turned to the door of the tent and said, "Hey, have you caught Sima Yan back so soon?"
Cao Liang's words naturally attracted Wang Yuanji's attention. He subconsciously looked at the door. Cao Liang took advantage of her distracted moment and rushed forward in one step, capturing her wrist holding the dagger with her left hand.
Cao Liang's strength was naturally much greater than hers. With a little force, Wang Yuanji's wrist hurt and the dagger fell to the ground.
Wang Yuanji screamed in shock, her right hand was restrained, and she struggled and hit Cao Liang's left fist in the face.
Cao Liang reacted very quickly and grabbed her left wrist with his right hand. Wang Yuanji wanted to struggle again, but how could her strength be comparable to Cao Liang and she could not resist.
At this moment, Huan Fan hurriedly bumped into the outside of the tent. Zhang shouted "General Cao". He looked up and saw such a explosive scene. He immediately had a weird expression on his face, brushed his robe sleeves, retreated backwards, and said repeatedly: "I've disturbed, I've disturbed!"
Cao Liang suddenly looked dark. Huan Fan didn't come early or late, but came in at this time. From his perspective, Cao Liang's movements were clearly about using strength.
This time, Cao Liang really felt that he couldn't wash it even if he jumped into the Yellow River. In fact, he just wanted to stop her from doing irrational actions and had no intention of molesting her.
Cao Liang let go of Wang Yuanji, called Ren Chaonan in, and ordered him to take Wang Yuanji down, and sent a special person to watch him to prevent Wang Yuanji from having any accidents.
Wang Yuanji left crying, while Cao Liang was depressed. Seeing this, people thought that he had really done something to her. No, he couldn't take the blame, so he had to explain to Huan Fan.
Cao Liang ordered someone to invite Huan Fan in and said, "Mr. Yuanze, what you saw just now may be a misunderstanding. In fact, there is nothing between me and her."
Huan Fan smiled ambiguously: "Understand, General Cao, don't worry, I'm just a tight-lipped person, and it will definitely not be passed to Mrs. Zun's ears."
Cao Liang said angrily: "You are wrong. I have no intention of her. I can't hide from the Sima family's women."
Huan Fan glanced at him sideways, as if saying, "Are you still moving less from the Sima family women?" But he still smiled and said, "The general will naturally deal with a captive woman at will. Letting her serve the general is her blessing."
Cao Liang was speechless. It seemed that no matter how much he explained, it would be useless. Instead, he became more and more unspeakable. He simply couldn't get the matter and asked about Huan Fan's purpose.
