After the army stayed in Guantao for another two days, Han Zhan brought the army back to Jizhou. Xun Yu, Zhang He, Tian Feng and others who were staying in Jizhou learned that Han Zhan had returned to Jizhou, they immediately led people to travel out of the city to greet him in the snow.

Xun Yu and Han Zhan walked side by side, glanced at the carriage in the queue, and asked curiously: "Zhan'er, is that a carriage with people?"

"Cai Yan, the daughter of Cai Yong, Cai Boji, the Left General. "Han Zhan explained to Xun Yu: "She married into the Wei family in Hedong, and her husband died not long after. Now that the three years of mourning have passed, he left the Wei family and returned to his parents' home. She was kept by me when she passed by Guantao City."

When she heard that Cai Yan, the daughter of Cai Yong, showed an unexpected expression on Xun Yu's face: "It turns out that she is Cai Boyi's daughter. It is said that she is knowledgeable and good at writing poetry and essays, good at astronomy and mathematics, good at debate and music, and has a charming look. Unexpectedly, she actually came to Jizhou."

Seeing Xun Yu praise Cai Yan so much, Han Zhan couldn't help but feel a little proud: "Uncle, Zhao Ji will live in Jizhou for a long time, and you will have the chance to see her in the future."

Xun Yu nodded, and then told Han Zhan the important thing: "Zhan'er, I received a letter from Li Ru. He hopes that you can go to Chang'an as soon as possible to pay homage to Tai Shi Dong."

When Han Zhan heard Xun Yu say this, he thought to himself that the road is blocked with heavy snow, and the road is difficult to move. If he wants to go to Chang'an, he can only wait until the spring of the next year, but then it is not far from Dong Zhuo's period. Wang Yunshi made a series of plans and killed Dong Zhuo with Lu Bu, Li Su and others, while Li Jue and Guo Si avenged Dong Zhuo and soon led the Xiliang troops to capture Chang'an. If he rushed to Chang'an during this period, he might accidentally lose his life. Therefore, he said decisively: "Don't go."

Although Xun Yu couldn't stand what Dong Zhuo did, for the sake of Han Zhan's future, he still tactfully persuaded: "Zhan'er, although Dong Zhuo is a traitor, how can he use the emperor to command the world? This is the reason why Li Ru wrote such a letter was perhaps the instructed by Dong Zhuo."

"If you want to cross the Yellow River to block the ice, you will climb the Taihang Mountains with snow." Han Zhan casually said two lines of Li Bai's poem, adding: "It's not that I don't want to go, but unfortunately the weather is cold and the road is difficult to walk. It's better to wait for the spring next year to go to Chang'an to pay homage to the Taishi."

"Okay," Seeing that Han Zhan was unwilling to go to Chang'an, Xun Yu could only nod and said, "The messenger sent by Li Ru is still in the mansion. When I return to the mansion, I will tell him what you mean."

Han Zhan suddenly remembered the missing Guo Tu and Xin Pi, and asked Xun Yu: "Uncle, don't know where Guo Tu, Xin Pi, are there?"

Guo Tu disappeared after Yuan Tan was ambushed; while Xin Pi was disguised as a devil and escaped from the city after Hu Zhi and Du Chang's Heishan Army captured Renxian, and disappeared after disguised as a devil. Before sending troops to Guantao, Han Zhan reminded Xun Yu to know the whereabouts of the two. No matter what, they were some historical celebrities, and there was no reason to disappear like this, and they must have been hiding somewhere.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Han Zhan finished asking, Xun Yu nodded and said, "According to the detailed report of our army, both of them have now gone to Bohai County and went to Nanpi City to join Yuan Shang.

"Did you find out where we have done the work we sent to Bohai County?" Han Zhan continued to ask: "Who are Yuan Shao's capable people in Bohai County?"

Xun Yu thought for a while and replied: "There are Xu You in literature, the high-ranking officials in martial arts, and there are about 60,000 to 70,000 soldiers and horses."

After learning about the strength of Yuan army in Bohai County, Han Zhan just said "Oh" lightly, and then said to Xun Yu: "Uncle, although there are many soldiers in Bohai County, it is not worth worrying about. We can easily destroy them."

…………

Han Yan and Lihua, who were greeting Han Zhan in the backyard, were stunned when they saw Han Zhan coming in, and there was a charming woman behind him.

Li Hua's eyes turned red and tears almost burst out. There was a jadeite in the backyard, which made her sad enough. Unexpectedly, her young master went out to fight a war and brought back a woman when she came back.

Seeing that Lihua's expression was a little wrong, Han Yan asked Han Zhan angrily: "Brother, who is this little lady? Why did you follow you to the backyard?"

Li Hua's reaction had long been seen by Han Zhan. He knew that the other party was jealous and was thinking about how to explain to her. His baby girl was in trouble for him. He quickly laughed, called Cai Yan over, and introduced to Han Zhan: "Second sister, let me introduce you to Cai Yan and Cai Zhaoji, the daughter of Cai Boyi. She will live with us in the future. You can't bully her." Then he turned to Cai Yan, "This is Han Yan, the sister-in-law."

After Cai Yan and Han Zhan finished introducing, they stepped forward to salute Han Yan: "Zhao Ji has met Miss Yan'er."

Seeing that Cai Yan was so polite to him, Han Zhan naturally couldn't do anything anymore. He could only try to squeeze out a smile on his face and said to the other party: "I will be my own family in the future, so Sister Cai doesn't have to be so polite."

"Lihua," Han Zhan saw Lihua look like she was about to cry, and hurriedly ordered to her: "Zhaoji has been exhausted all the way and needs rest. You can take her to take a shower and change clothes."

"Yes, young master." After Lihua agreed in a crying voice, she raised her hand and wiped her face, and forced a smile to Cai Yan, "Miss Cai, please come with my maid."

Cai Yan nodded gratefully to Han Zhan, and followed Li Hua with her maid and walked towards the inner courtyard.

After seeing Lihua leave, Jade and A Nuan, who were standing in the crowd, immediately ran out, each holding Han Zhan's arm, and the bird leaned on him, and said softly: "Mr. Ting, you are finally back, I miss you every day."

"Wait," Han Zhan couldn't help but ask curiously when he heard the two of them calling him: "You didn't always call me Xiaohou, why do you call me Tinghou now?"

Jade glanced quickly at Han Yan not far away and said timidly: "Was the lady said it, or would you like to call Tinghou a better person?"

Han Zhan did not continue to entangle in the name, but took the two of them back to his room. When he saw the patch followed in quietly, he told him: "Patch, if you go out to find Rob, just say that it was my order, and ask him to arrange a manpower as soon as possible and put in a few more kangs in the room in the backyard."

"Kang?" Paidian asked in confusion when he heard Han Zhan's order: "Young Master, what is a kang?"

When the patch asked this question, Jade and A Nuan looked at Han Zhan with curiosity, trying to figure out what the fire kang was about Tinghou's mouth was? However, Han Zhan smiled and did not answer, but urged the patch: "What are you still doing here? Why don't you go quickly? By the way, you can arrange for someone to prepare hot water, I plan to take a shower in the house." When the patch turned and left, Han Zhan ordered A Nuan to go to the kitchen to get him some food.

I heard that Han Zhan was going to take a shower in the house. As soon as Patch and A Nuan left, Jade came to his ear and asked in a low voice: "Mr. Tinghou, let me wait for you to take a shower and change your clothes later."

Han Zhan laughed and said jokingly: "Okay, okay, will you take a bath with me later? How about we have a mandarin duck playing in the water?"

Jade did not expect Han Zhan to say such bold words, and his face flushed with shame, and buried his head deeply in Han Zhan's arms, neither saying agree nor objection.

After the people were ready, Han Zhan took off his clothes and lay in a wooden barrel with the help of Jade, and began to take a hot bath. When Jade was washing his hair with water, he began to think quietly: in a few months, Dong Zhuo would die on Wang Yun and Lu Bu. Li Jue and Guo Si were unwilling to sit and wait for death, so he led the Xiliang army to capture Chang'an, forcing Lu Bu away, kill Wang Yun, and hostage Emperor Xian of Han. What should he do in this situation? Leading troops to fight for the king is the old birthday star who hangs his life long; watching the wall, watching the gods in Chang'an, and watching, he couldn't do it.

"What should I do?" Han Zhan thought to himself and asked unknowingly.

"What is Tinghou talking about?" Jade, who was washing Han Zhan's hair, heard him talking to himself, and asked quickly: "Did I use too hard and hurt Tinghou's head?"

"No, it has nothing to do with you." Han Zhan waved his hand repeatedly and said, "I am thinking about other things, and I was so immersed in my mind that I said it to myself."

Just as Han Zhan stared at the jade with a peach blossom face, he was thinking about whether to drag her into the wooden barrel and have a mandarin duck playing in the water, and the patch broke in inappropriately: "Young Master!"

Han Zhan, who was disturbed by good things, sank his face and asked dissatisfiedly: "Patch, what's the matter?"

"Reply to the young master," Pang Ding saw that Han Zhan's face was a little wrong, and quickly explained: "Mr. Xun, Mr. Guo and others are waiting for you in the conference hall, saying that there is something important to discuss!"

"I get it," Han Zhan waved his hand to the patch and ordered: "You go out first. After I take a shower and change my clothes, I will go to the conference hall."

Han Zhan thought that just returned to Jizhou today, and everyone would have to rest for a day or two before they would gather in the conference hall for discussion. Unexpectedly, Guo Jia and the others were so anxious that they actually sent patches to urge themselves while they were bathing.

Han Zhan hurriedly finished washing, got up, and with the help of Jade, put on his clothes. He didn't even care about the food that A Nuan had just brought, so he hurried to the conference hall.

"Everyone," Han Zhan sat down in the middle of the meeting hall and asked the group of civil officials sitting below, "I don't know what's the point of urging me to come here so quickly?"

"Lord, Jia heard that Dong Zhe's confidant Li Ru sent someone to send you a letter." Guo Jia asked out of the list, "I wonder if the lord wants to rush to Chang'an immediately?"

Han Zhan snorted coldly, then said, "If the weather is cold today and the road is rugged and difficult to walk, how can you go to Chang'an? Even if you want to go, you will have to wait until next year that we defeated Yuan Shao and captured Yecheng."

I thought that such an answer could be perfunctory to Guo Jia and others. Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, Guo Jia said, "My Lord, don't say that you can't go now. Even if we defeat Yuan Shao next year, we can't go to Chang'an. Dong Zhuo is a traitor. How can we bow our knees to him?"

Guo Jia's words immediately aroused the response of Xun You, Tian Feng and others. After the meeting hall calmed down again, Guo Jia continued: "According to Jia's analysis, Dong Zhuo is full of evil and will die sooner or later. We should draw a clear line with him as soon as possible. Otherwise, once he is classified as Dong Zhe's accomplices, we will be unable to argue."

No one thinks that Guo Jia's statement is alarmist. After all, Dong Zhuo has done too many bad things, and everyone wants him to die. Tian Feng asked Guo Jia curiously: "Fengxiao, I wonder how long can Dong Zhuo live?"

Before Guo Jia answered, Han Zhan suddenly remembered Cao Cao's poem and couldn't help but chant in public: "The thief minister held the country's stewards, killed the Lord and died of Yujing. He overthrew the emperor's foundation, burned the ancestral temple to burn the funeral. He moved westward, and cried and walked. He looked at the city of Biluo, and Weizi was sad."

Hearing Han Zhan's words, he wrote a poem casually. Guo Jia and Xun You, who had heard Han Zhan's poems in Guantao, had a natural expression, but Xun Yu, Tian Feng, Zang Hong and others were surprised and almost fell to the ground. They never dreamed that Han Zhan could write poems.

Xun Yu pointed at Han Zhan and asked in surprise: "Zhan'er, is this the poem you wrote?"

Han Zhan smiled faintly and asked, "I wonder if my uncle has heard this poem before? If not, it means that this is what I did."

Xun Yu frowned and thought for a while, finally shook his head decisively and replied: "No, never, this is the first time I have heard this poem."

"Shi Shi Xun," Guo Jia smiled and said to Xun Yu: "Since you have never heard of this poem before, it means that this poem was made by the lord. In fact, what's so strange about this? A few days ago, when Gongda and I were in Guantao, we also heard a poem given to Miss Cai with our lord!"

"What, Zhan'er gave Miss Cai?" Xun Yu said this and showed a suspicious expression on his face: "Fengxiao, can you read it?"

"The clouds think of clothes, flowers think of appearance, and the spring breeze blows through the threshold and the dew is thick. If it weren't for the group of jade mountains, they would meet under the moon on the Yao platform." After reciting the poem written by Han Zhan, Guo Jia smiled and said to Xun Yu: "Shi Xun Changshi, if I were not by my side at that time, I really couldn't believe that my lord could make such a good poem. As soon as this poem was released, it immediately made me and Gongda feel ashamed."

After hearing this, Xun Yu nodded and said, "It is reasonable to worship Xiao. I have never heard of these two poems before, and it must have been done by Zhan'er. By the way back to the city today, I told him Li Ru's letter. He casually said: If you want to cross the Yellow River and block the ice, you will climb Taihang and snow all over the mountain. With just a few words, you will describe the difficult road to the fullest. It is really unconvincible."
