Cai Yong's listing is Han Cheng's meritorious service, like a stone stirring up a thousand waves.

The originally calm court, after Cai Yong finished speaking, suddenly became lively and lively, and there were many discussions everywhere.

Cai Yong's biggest advantage is to repay his kindness.

According to historical records: After Dong Zhuo was killed, the corpse was violently corpsed in Dongshi, although Dong Zhuo promoted countless state pastors, Taishou; In the end, only Cai Yong lay on Dong Zhuo's corpse and cried for a while, because Dong Zhuo had the grace of knowing him, and he hadn't had time to repay it.

Such a grateful person suddenly heard the news of Han Cheng, how could he not take the initiative to come out?

Cai Yong, who has lived in the court for a long time, naturally knows what the ministers think, but he remembered his daughter's letter in his heart, and he still resolutely came out of the list.

He secretly said to himself in his heart: "Han Cheng, you saved my daughter, I can be regarded as repaying you, and from now on, we will not owe each other." ”

The letter about her daughter's family was half a month before the Battle of Yanmen Pass.

A few months ago, Cai Yong, who was in Chang'an, received a letter from his daughter Cai Zhaoji, from which he could see the grievances suffered by his daughter in the Wei family after the death of Zhongdao in self-defense.

As a father, Cai Yong was afraid that his daughter would suffer again, so he arranged for the family to take his daughter back to Chang'an.

Although Cai Zhaoji was married in a hurry because he was afraid that Dong Zhuo would covet Cai Zhaoji's appearance at that time, but now that he looks at it, he is too anxious.

After all, Dong Zhuo did not mention his daughter's appearance in person, but Cai Yong was afraid that his daughter would be favored by Dong Zhuo, in the final analysis, it was Cai Yong's wishful thinking that caused his daughter to suffer in the Wei family.

If her daughter returns to Chang'an, she is really unfortunate to be favored by Dong Zhuo, then she is looking for someone to marry her daughter.

Cai Yong, who loves his daughter, thinks so.

But a month has passed, and there has been no news from my daughter and the family.

Cai Yong was in a hurry, and after many inquiries, he unexpectedly got the news that his daughter was plundered by the Southern Hun army.

At this time, although Cai Yong was an important minister of the imperial court, Dong Zhuo liked it, but Dong Zhuo would not raise troops for him to attack the Southern Xiongnu and rescue his daughter, which made Cai Yong fall into the dilemma of "useless is a scholar".

I had to wash my face with tears every day to remember my daughter and pray for her safety. It was probably Cai Yong's true emotions that moved the heavens.

Just when Cai Yong was sad every day, he unexpectedly received a letter from his daughter, and Cai Yong opened the letter and saw that it was the handwriting of his daughter Cai Zhaoji.

Cai Zhaoji has followed Cai Yong to learn and write since she was a child, and her words cannot be imitated by others.

In the letter, the daughter mainly told about the fact that she was plundered by Liu Neng, the left king of the Southern Xiongnu, and was rescued by the Fenwu general Han Cheng at the Yanmen Pass in the north of Bingzhou.

Because Han Cheng did not express his intentions to Cai Zhaoji at this time, he just left Cai Zhaoji in Yanmen County, so Cai Zhaoji could not tell Cai Yong in detail about Han Cheng's personality.

After Cai Yong received the letter, he was in a much better mood: at least his daughter is on the land of the Han family, although it is in the northern part of Bingzhou, it is also the land of the Han family.

When he was young, he was exiled to Shuofang County, where he stayed for twelve years, and he was fully aware of the conditions in the northern part of the state. As soon as the winter is over, it is good to arrange for someone to bring my daughter back.

As for the famous festival of her daughter staying with Han Cheng, there is no way, first, it is not necessarily better to go back to Chang'an than to be in Yanmen County; The second is what's more, there is Han Cheng's life-saving grace, even if he takes a fancy to his daughter's appearance and forcibly takes possession of his daughter, he can accept it.

After all, if there was no Han Cheng, a martial artist, his daughter would be in the tribal tent of the Southern Xiongnu now, maybe in a few years, he would bring a grandson of the Southern Xiongnu to visit him, this is a scene that Cai Yong couldn't imagine.

However, the daughter did not say anything about possession in the letter.

It shows that Han Cheng may be a righteous gentleman, so in the court, at the risk of being abandoned by the scholars, he also has to make a contribution to Han Cheng to repay Han Cheng for saving his daughter.

After Cai Yong finished speaking for Han Cheng, Li Ru came out and said calmly: "General Fenwu Han Cheng fought against the Southern Xiongnu at Yanmen Pass and prevented the invasion of the Southern Xiongnu army, which is a major event for the Han Dynasty, that is, it protects the safety of the people of our Han Dynasty and strengthens the national prestige of our Han Dynasty, I think it should be rewarded heavily."

The title of General Fenwu was canonized by Han Fu, but Han Fu represents the imperial court, and we should recognize his previous title of General Fenwu, and canonize it on this basis.

In fact, a few years ago, Han Cheng also made a table: They fought against the army of the Southern Xiongnu a year ago, and now they have made such a great achievement, I think that the two merits should be rewarded together.

He can be canonized as the pastor of Jizhou, the general of Yanmen County. ”

Dong Zhuo glanced at Li Ru and Cai Yong, and said to Emperor Han Xian; "Your Majesty, just according to Li Ru's wishes."

Emperor Han Xian said nervously: "What Dong Xiangguo said is what I mean, let's draft the purpose." ”

After the court meeting dispersed, Dong Zhuo left Li Ru behind and asked, "Wen You, even if you use the trick of throwing bricks to attract jade, it is too heavy to reward Han Cheng like this, right?" ”

Li Ru said: "Tell my father-in-law, there is a reason why I reward Han Cheng so much.

First, my subordinates found out that the great seal of Jizhou Mu was still in the hands of this Han Cheng.

If we give him the reputation of Jizhou Mu, with Yuan Shao's character, he will not be allowed, he and Yuan Shao, there will be a battle, and we can reap the benefits of the fisherman.

Isn't it a good thing that we just paid for the reputation of a Jizhou pastor, but in exchange for letting Yuan Shao fight with Han Cheng with a real knife?

The second is that the emperor is in our hands, and we have now given Han Cheng a reputation that seems to be very rich, if Han Cheng becomes our big trouble in the future, we will change him again, anyway, the emperor is in our hands, don't you want to change it for something, just change it for something? Unless Han Cheng does not recognize the people of the Han Dynasty, then we can use the emperor's order to order other princes to attack Han Cheng. ”

Dong Zhuo thought for a moment, saw Li Ru's hopeful eyes, and said, "I listened to Wen You." ”

When Han Cheng became the pastor of Jizhou, the news of the Taishou Jia'an North General of Yanmen County reached Cao Cao of Yanzhou East County, and Cao Cao said to his subordinates: "Han Cheng, this son, knows the great righteousness; When the princes of the day crusaded against Dong Zhuo, only this son pursued Dong Zhuo with me, and this son planned far away. If it is a friend, it will be my Cao Mengde's confidant, if it is an enemy, I am afraid it will be my Cao Mengde's lifelong enemy. ”

In Beiping, Youzhou, Gongsun Zan also received the news that Han Cheng was canonized as Jizhou Mu, and Yanmen County Taishou Jia'an Bei General looked disdainful.

"My grandson Zan has been shaking the north for so many years, and he is not a Youzhou herd, General Anbei. Han Cheng'er fought such a small victory, and there was such a high reward, the court was unfair, and when I pacified Yuan Shao's house, I will lead the people to Chang'an City to ask for an explanation. ”

Pingyuan Liu Bei received the news and said: "This kid climbs so fast, but Jizhou is in the hands of Yuan Shao, and this state pastor is not so easy to do." ”

Yecheng Yuan Shao, "Dong Zhuo This is naked revenge, Jizhou is in my hands, I see how Han Cheng can take it?" ”

When Tian Feng saw the news, although he didn't like it, he praised Han Cheng's way of fighting against the Southern Xiongnu, Yuan Shao just glanced at Tian Feng in a low voice and silently remembered it in his heart.

Guo Tu looked at the movements of Yuan Shao and Tian Feng, and said to Yuan Shao: "My lord, it is better to increase the troops of General Han Meng, let him attack Changshan County with all his strength, and after taking a few counties, let Han Cheng know how powerful we are." ”

Yuan Shaozheng had this intention, and was just about to give an order, Tian Feng suddenly stood up and said: "The lord can't, my Jizhou army fought with Gongsun Chan at the boundary bridge last year, although it won, but Gongsun Zhan's troops did not hurt the fundamentals, the three counties in the south are being harassed by the Black Mountain bandits, if we start a war with Han Cheng in Changshan County at this time, our side will be attacked on three sides, and it will be extremely unfavorable."

I think we should raise troops to defeat Gongsun Zan in one fell swoop, and clean up the remnants of the Han family in Changshan County. ”

Yuan Shao looked at Tian Feng and did not say anything, but just brushed his sleeves and left.
