0160 The plan to rescue Cai Yong

Guo Jia's words immediately made Han Zhan stunned. He thought that Zhen Mi was only eight years old, and even if the Yuan family wanted to propose marriage, they would have to wait until she was twelve or thirteen years old. Besides, Yuan Xi is still in his own hands, so why did this history be revealed according to the original trajectory?

He took a few deep breaths, and after his emotions stabilized a little, he asked, "Has Mrs. Zhen agreed to this?"

Guo Jia nodded and said, "Yes, Mrs. Zhen has agreed to this matter."

"Bang!" Hearing Guo Jia say this, Han Zhan slapped hard on the table and said loudly: "Damn, how could he agree? You know, although Yuan Xi was detained at me, Yuan Shao always thought he was dead. What kind of relatives did he mention for a dead person?"

"Although Zhen Yi was a Shangcai Order during his lifetime, there were many disciples and former officials." Guo Jia explained to Han Zhan: "Once he became a relative of the Yuan family, the fourth generation and third generation, then most of the disciples and former officials during his lifetime would be recruited by the Yuan family. As for Yuan Xi's whereabouts, Guo Jia said this, smiled faintly and continued, "We can't hide the fact that he was captured. I believe Yuan Shao had known that he was staying in the Jizhou prison for a long time."

After hearing Guo Jia say this, Han Zhan couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Yuan Shao may have guessed that I would not kill Yuan Xi, so he can come to the Zhen family to propose marriage so unscrupulously."

"Master, what should we do?" Guo Jia asked.

"What else can I do?" Han Zhan said helplessly: "Let everything go with the flow. Let's continue to detain Yuan Xi. When Yuan Shao is willing to withdraw from Yecheng, we will return Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi's two brothers." Han Zhan thought to himself that when Yuan Shao was forced out of Yecheng, he could not take the Zhen family away. Then he went to the Zhen family to propose marriage. Maybe Mrs. Zhen could change her mind and marry Zhen Mi to him.

Guo Jia did not continue to talk about Zhen Mi, but changed the topic: "Lord, I wonder what Miss Cai reacted after seeing Shizhong Cai's letter?"

"What else can I do? Of course I am ecstatic. After all, she has never seen Cai since she married into the Wei family..." Han Zhan said this and asked Guo Jia unexpectedly, "Didn't Mr. Cai serve as the position of Zuo Zhonglang in the court? When did she become the Shizhong again?"

"This happened not long ago," Guo Jia said with a smile: "Dong Zhe has been trying to win over him because of Mr. Cai's talent, and has been constantly promoting him, and even named him the Marquis of Gaoyang Township."

When Han Zhan learned that Cai Yong was actually a village marquis, he said a little sourly: "This marquis is just a marquis of Ting, and when Mr. Cai was in a high position, he was actually named a village marquis." However, when he thought that this was his cheap father-in-law, he felt much more balanced.

Guo Jia, who is good at observing words and expressions, noticed that Han Zhan was different from usual and guessed that there might be something good about him. He asked tentatively: "Lord, I wonder when you plan to go to Chang'an to visit Shizhong Cai?"

"Go to Chang'an?" Hearing Guo Jia's question, Han Zhan immediately shook his head instinctively and said, "The capital is about to be disrupted. What should I do there?"

Guo Jia was stunned and then asked back: "Does the lord still think someone will attack Dong Zhuo and cause chaos in the capital?"

"That's right, that's it." Han Zhan said with a serious expression: "The reason why I ordered my uncle to get along with Li Jue, Guo Si and others was that considering the matter of Dong Zhuo, no one in the court could stabilize the chaos. At that time, the only one who controls the capital was Dong Zhe's capable subordinates."

When Han Zhan said this, he suddenly remembered what he saw in unofficial history: Dong Zhuo valued Cai Yong's talent and was very polite to him. Whenever a banquet was held, Cai Yong often made fun of the piano. Although Cai Yong often made suggestions to Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo was stubborn and rarely adopted his opinions.

After seeing Dong Zhuo's true face, Cai Yong began to want to retreat. He discussed with his cousin Cai Gu: "Mr. Dong is strong and prone to evil, and he will never succeed. I want to run east to Yanzhou, but the road is too far and it is not easy to reach. I plan to escape to Shandong for a while. How about it?"

Unexpectedly, Cai Gu said to him: "Your appearance is different from that of ordinary people. No matter where you go, it will become the focus of everyone. It is difficult to hide!" It is precisely because of my cousin's words that Cai Yong dispelled his plan to escape from Chang'an, which made him become Dong Zhuo's funeral object.

In order to avoid a similar tragedy resurrected, Han Zhan made up his mind to rescue Cai Yong no matter what, and let a famous writer and calligrapher like him die at the hands of Wang Yun. Therefore, he said to Guo Jia: "Fengxiao, I have an idea. Do you see that you can send someone to see Mr. Cai and invite him to Jizhou?"

"Please invite Mr. Cai to Jizhou?" Guo Jia said with some embarrassment about Han Zhan's whimsical thoughts: "Even if we send someone to invite him, will he agree?"

"If we send someone directly to invite him, he will definitely not come." Han Zhan said thoughtfully: "But don't forget that Zhao Ji is still here with us. If this Hou asked Zhao Ji to write a letter to Mr. Cai and ask him to Jizhou, it might be successful."

As soon as Han Zhan finished speaking, Guo Jia reminded him: "Lord, don't forget that Chang'an area has always been responsible for the affairs of Chang'an. I think it's better to ask him to come here to discuss this matter."

Han Zhan deeply agreed with Guo Jia's reminder. He walked to the door of the conference hall and shouted outside. Rob immediately came over and bowed to him: "What are the instructions for lord?"

"Go and invite Xun Changshi," Han Zhan ordered Luo Bu, "Just say I have something important to discuss with him."

After two incense sticks, Xun Yu followed Rob into the meeting hall. His face was full of questions, so more than half an hour ago, today's meeting ended. At this time, Is there anything special about finding myself?

When Han Zhan saw Xun Yu coming in, he took the initiative to greet him: "Uncle, you are here!"

Xun Yu glanced at Guo Jia, and saw his worried look on his face, he asked Han Zhan curiously: "Zhan'er, you are in a hurry to call me here. Is there anything important?"

"That's right, uncle." Han Zhan said tactfully: "When I handed Mr. Cai's letter to Zhaoji just now, she was so excited that she couldn't help herself and wanted to rush to Chang'an to meet his father immediately."

"Zhan'er, this is human nature." Xun Yu said very understandingly: "Ms. Cai hasn't seen her father for several years. If possible, she still needs to find a way to let them meet to comfort the pain of longing for love."

"Uncle, I think you still remember that I said some time ago that the capital is about to disrupt, and it is like a sheep entering the tiger's mouth when we enter the capital at this time." Han Zhan said to Xun Yu: "So we must not easily step into the capital in the coming year, let alone meet Mr. Cai."

"Zhan'er, even if there are ministers in the court who want to get rid of Dong's thief, they will probably be able to control the court and there will be no chaos in the world." Xun Yu said carefully: "Don't make a fuss about Zhan'er."

"Uncle," Han Zhan knew that if Xun Yu was not convinced, the plan to send someone to rescue Cai Yong might be disappointed. Therefore, he said in a steady tone: "Let take a step back, even if the ministers in the court can control the situation. However, Mr. Cai was valued by Dong Zhe, I believe that the ministers in the court had already included him in the Dong Zhe party. How could he have finished his eggs after the collapse of the nest? Once Dong Zhe is eliminated, can Mr. Cai escape safely?"

Han Zhan's words made Xun Yu open his eyes wide in surprise. If Han Zhan hadn't said this today, he had never considered this issue. He thought that as long as Dong thief was eliminated, the Han Dynasty would not be in danger of overthrowing. He never expected that Cai Yong would have been Dong Zhuo's party in the eyes of others.

Xun Yu frowned and thought for a while, then asked Han Zhan: "Zhan'er, what are you going to do?"

"Uncle, before you come, Fengxiao and I were discussing how to rescue Mr. Cai." Han Zhan specifically emphasized: "You arranged the staff in the capital, so I plan to put you in full responsibility for the rescue of Mr. Cai."

Xun Yu agreed without hesitation about Han Zhan's arrangement, but he raised the possible problems: "Zhan'er, what should we do if Mr. Cai is stubborn and refuses to follow the people we sent to leave the capital?"

"We can do a two-pronged approach," Han Zhan said: "In the mansion, I can ask her to write a letter to Mr. Cai and ask Mr. Cai to come to Jizhou. My uncle arranged a reliable person to send the letter to the capital."

"But if Mr. Cai still refuses to leave the capital after reading the letter, what should we do about it like this?" Xun Yu then asked again: "We can't use force, right?"

"If Mr. Cai refuses to come to Jizhou with our people," Han Zhan gritted his teeth and said, "There is no choice but to use force, so let our people tie him to Jizhou. The capital is a place of right and wrong, so we must not let him stay there again."

"Okay, since Zhan'er has already made careful considerations, let's do what you said." Seeing that Han Zhan had considered everything he should consider, Xun Yu nodded and said, "No need to delay, Zhan'er, you go and ask Miss Cai to write a letter to Mr. Cai."

When Han Zhan left the conference hall and walked towards the backyard, Guo Jia, who stayed in the conference hall, asked Xun Yu: "Shi Xun, how likely do you think this matter is to be successful?"

Xun Yu smiled bitterly and said, "Zhan'er is a bit too presumptuous. He thought it would be so easy to tie someone up in the capital? Therefore, we can only hope that after reading Miss Cai's letter, Mr. Cai can readily agree to come to Jizhou, otherwise things will be difficult."

Han Zhan hurried to the backyard. He came to Cai Yan's room door, opened the curtain and walked in. The maid was waiting for Cai Yan to wash. When she saw Han Zhan who suddenly broke in, she was startled. Then she thought of the shameful scene she saw not long ago, and her pretty face turned red.

Neither Han Zhan nor Cai Yan showed any strange appearance on the maid's face. Cai Yan asked Han Zhan in surprise: "Mr. Ting, are you done with your discussion so soon?"

Han Zhan grinned, and did not immediately answer Cai Yan's question, but said to the maid: "You retreat first and call you in when you need it."

The maid blushed and agreed, turned around and walked outside, thinking to herself: Tinghou is really ridiculous. She just enjoyed the joy of fish and water with Miss Cai not long ago, and she came again so soon. It's really shameful.

Xun Yu frowned and thought for a while, then asked Han Zhan: "Zhan'er, what are you going to do?"

"Uncle, before you come, Fengxiao and I were discussing how to rescue Mr. Cai." Han Zhan specifically emphasized: "You arranged the staff in the capital, so I plan to put you in full responsibility for the rescue of Mr. Cai."
