After General Wu left the Taishou Mansion, he immediately returned to the barracks and gathered his men and horses, divided into two roads, and went north and east to search for Cai Yan's whereabouts. He knew that the stakes were high, so he himself headed north with his cavalry; And the cavalry to the east was also commanded by a confidant he trusted.

However, due to Feng Ji's cunning and cunning, Chang Lin made a mistake in their judgment, so that the men and horses pursuing them on both sides finally pounced.

After dark, General Wu, who returned disappointed, returned to the Taishou Mansion and pleaded guilty to Zhang Miao: "If you go back to Taishou, the last general led the troops to chase to the Yellow River, but there was still no trace of Miss Cai. Along the way, they asked pedestrians, and they did not see a caravan passing with a carriage. ”

After Chang Lin waited for General Wu to finish speaking, he asked with a hint of luck: "General Wu, what about the people who went east?" ”

General Wu shook his head and said with a wry smile: "If you go back to the usual main book, it will also be empty!" ”

"Both sides are empty." When Zhang Miao heard General Wu say this, he stood up suddenly, walked back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, and said at the same time: "Could it be that they put on their wings and fly away?" ”

For the two people who didn't wait to find Cai Yan, Chang Lin was also disappointed. He got up and said to Zhang Miao: "Taishou, in the opinion of his subordinates, it is better to send someone to report to Han Tinghou as soon as possible." Otherwise, after he learns about this matter through the detailed work arranged in Chenliu, he may not be good for Taishou. ”

Zhang Miao heard Chang Lin say this, his heart couldn't help but feel furious, he thought that not long after Han Fu defected to him, he committed suicide in Chen Liu, and Han Zhan took advantage of the reason to avenge his father's hatred and raised troops to fight against Yuan Shao. Don't look at Yuan Shao's illustrious family, the fourth and third dukes, but after Han Zhan raised his army, the original old departments of Jizhou surrendered one after another, and almost no hard battles were fought, and most of Jizhou was recovered. If the other party knew that Cai Yan was missing, and he deliberately did not report it, he would be angry with himself at that time, and Chen Liu would be in danger.

Thinking of this, Zhang Miao hurriedly said to Chang Lin: "What Bohuai said is extremely true. Then in your opinion, who should we send to Yecheng to report this matter to Han Tinghou? ”

Chang Lin thought about it, and then said to himself: "Taishou, my subordinates know more about this matter, why don't you go down to Yecheng to see Han Tinghou?" ”

"That's great!" Zhang Miao saw that Chang Lin took the initiative to ask for help, so he hurriedly nodded and said: "Since this is the case, when Ben Taishou prepares gifts overnight, Bohuai can leave for Yecheng early tomorrow morning." ”

Nothing was said all night.

In the early morning of the next day, Zhang Miao personally sent Chang Lin out of Chenliu, and repeatedly told him: "Bohuai is going to Yecheng, everything can be done cheaply." Remember not to let Han Tinghou blame him for being guarded. ”

Chang Lin saw that Zhang Miao was so afraid of things, and a trace of dissatisfaction rose in his heart, and said in his heart that if you hadn't been bewitched by Fengji, you had to remove the soldiers guarding the cemetery, where would this kind of thing happen. Although he was dissatisfied with Zhang Miao in his heart, he still said politely on the surface: "Please rest assured, my subordinates will definitely live up to the trust." ”

The one who escorted Chang Lin to Yecheng was the same General Wu who went to search for Cai Yan yesterday. When Chang Lin and his party came to the Yellow River, waiting for the ferry. General Wu said to Chang Lin with emotion: "Master Chang, at the end of yesterday, I will lead people to chase people to this time, and I inquired at the ferry, and learned that there is no brigade of people crossing the river here, could it be that we made a mistake?" ”

"Mistaken?!" Hearing General Wu say this, Chang Lin shuddered inexplicably, and immediately figured out a question in his heart, with Feng Ji's wit, after kidnapping Cai Yan, how could he take people in a direction that ordinary people can judge? He couldn't help but stomp his foot fiercely and said indignantly: "Damn, damn! ”

Chang Lin's reaction confused General Wu. Puzzled, he asked, "What are you bothering about?" ”

Chang Lin sighed and said to General Wu: "General Wu, you and I have fallen for Feng Ji's tricks. With his character, after kidnapping Miss Cai, how could he swagger to the east or north? In order to get rid of our pursuers, he will inevitably do the opposite. ”

Listening to Chang Lin's explanation, General Wu also figured out what was going on. He asked tentatively: "In the opinion of Master Chang, after Feng Ji kidnapped Miss Cai, he must have taken the men and horses to the west or south?" ”

"Exactly." Chang Lin said with annoyance: "It's a pity that I didn't think of these yesterday, otherwise I wouldn't have let the Fengji dog thief escape." To the south are mountains and mountains, and they certainly won't go that way. If Zai Xia guessed correctly, they must have gone west, and after walking for a hundred miles, they turned around and headed north, crossing the river to the north and heading north to the Bohai Sea. ”

"Then we'll send someone back now to inform Taishou." When General Wu heard Chang Lin say this, he felt that there was still room for things to turn around, and hurriedly suggested: "Please ask him to immediately send someone to the west to chase after him, maybe he can rescue Miss Cai." ”

"It's late, it's late." Chang Lin shook his head and said two "late" in a row: "Fengji They are all cavalry, and they have walked at least one hundred and fifty miles in two days, maybe they would have crossed the river to the north by now." Even if we ask Taishou to send troops, we won't be able to catch up with them. Let's go to Yecheng and ask Han Tinghou for guilt. ”

At this time, Feng Ji and the others were already one hundred and fifty miles west of Chenliu. Huang An saw that this place was far enough away from Chen Liu, so he said to Feng Ji: "Uncle Feng, this place is already one hundred and fifty miles away from Chen Liu, even if Zhang Taishou guesses that we will go in this direction, and when he sends someone to chase after him, he will not be able to catch up with me." Why don't you turn around and head north and cross the river to the Bohai Sea as soon as possible? ”

"Good nephew." Feng Ji's destination was Chang'an, not the Bohai Sea, so after hearing Huang An's proposal, he immediately shook his head and said, "Not only can we not nod our heads and go north at this time, but we must continue to travel west." ”

"Uncle Feng, why is this?" Feng Ji's words confused Huang An.

After General Wu left the Taishou Mansion, he immediately returned to the barracks and gathered his men and horses, divided into two roads, and went north and east to search for Cai Yan's whereabouts.
