Cai Yong, the word Bo 喈. He was born in Yu County, Chenliu County (now Yu Town, Kaifeng City, Henan Province). A famous writer and calligrapher in the Eastern Han Dynasty, he created his own "flying white body" and was the father of Cai Wenji.

In his early years, he refused to be called by the imperial court, and was later conscripted as a subordinate of Situ Peng, serving as Heping Chang, Langzhong, Yilang, etc., and participated in the continuation of the "Dongguan Hanji" and the engraving of the Xiping Stone Scripture. Later, he was exiled to Shuofang for his crimes, and after several twists and turns, he took refuge in Jiangnan for 12 years.

When Dong Zhuo was in power, he forcibly summoned Cai Yong as a sacrificial wine. Within three days, he successively served as the Imperial History, the Imperial History, the Shangshu, the Servant, and the Zuo Zhonglang General, and was named the Marquis of Gaoyang, known as "Cai Zhonglang". After Dong Zhuo was killed, Cai Yong was imprisoned for lamenting on Wang Yun's throne, and died in prison soon after at the age of 60.

"Huh? It turns out that you are Su Pingdi who wrote 'But make the dragon city fly, don't teach Hu Ma to Yin Mountain', the old man also heard your rumors in the land of Wuhui, I didn't expect it to be so young, it is really a hero out of a young man. ”

Cai Yong was also surprised after hearing Zhang Fei's introduction, when he heard that a young man was shining in Yingchuan Academy, and he also wrote a poem such as "Out of the Plug", but he didn't expect it to be the young man who was less than twenty years old in front of him, let alone the head of a county at such a young age.

"Everyone Cai has won the award, and the student's little knowledge is not worth mentioning in front of everyone Cai, and everyone Cai has learned through the past and the present, which makes the students admire."

"Cai, everyone, I see that Mrs. Zun seems to be pregnant, and she was frightened again, let's go over and take a look."

"Yes, yes." Cai Yong slapped his forehead, and then remembered that his family was still beside him, and he hadn't recovered from the shock just now.

Walking in front of the woman, Cai Yong stretched out his hand and patted the woman's back gently: "Scared, right?" It's okay, it's okay. Yan'er, come here, it's all right. After saying that, he gently pulled the girl and caressed the little girl's head lovingly.

Su Xiu reacted at this time, this little girl turned out to be the famous Cai Wenji in history.

Cai Yan, the word Wen Ji, also known as Zhao Ji, married to Wei Zhongdao in his early years, and then the Xiongnu invaded, was taken away by King Zuoxian, stayed in the grassland for 12 years, and was later redeemed by Cao Cao and married to Dong Ci. She is also good at literature, music, and calligraphy. The Book of Sui and the Chronicles of the Sui Dynasty contains a volume of "Cai Wenji's Collection", but it has been lost. The only works that can be seen now are two poems of "Poems of Grief and Indignation" and "Eighteen Beats of Hu Ji".

Cai Yan's life can be said to be miserable, although he is full of talent, but his married life is extremely bleak.

Looking at this girl carefully, I saw that she had clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, willow eyebrows and phoenix eyes, although she was only ten years old, but she was already slim, quite a bit of a country and a city, just like a star in later generations said, "Willow leaves bend eyebrows and cherry mouth, whoever sees me is happy to look at it".

"My lord? My lord? ”

Looking at it, Su Xiu unconsciously lost his mind, and came back to his senses when he heard someone calling him.

"Oh, Cai, everyone, the student just lost his temper, which made you laugh, Cai Lao called the student something?"

"It's nothing, just ask your lord where you want to go?"

"Oh, I'm just going to Luoyang to do something. Cai Lao came from the land of Wuhui, could it be that he was also preparing to go to Luoyang? ”

"Exactly, but just to see old friends, it's not convenient for me to go to Luoyang openly, so I didn't bring many entourages, which made these little people almost succeed."

"If Cai Lao doesn't dislike it, then let's go together, there is a good response on the road, and by the way, I can ask Cai Lao for knowledge."

"That's naturally the best, I'm afraid it will delay Lord Su's business."

"It's okay, it's not bad for students to go to Luoyang."

……

Along the way, Su Xiu and Cai Yong chatted without a word, and learned from Cai Yong's words that this time he returned to Luoyang at the invitation of his friend Ma Riyan (di) to attend a banquet, and the participants were all old friends who had old friends with Cai Yong.

Su Xiu knew that if someone like Cai Yong, who had been treated unfairly before, was known to return to Luoyang, he would face great danger, especially the eunuch group who wanted him to die the most, so it can be said that Cai Yong was dancing on the tip of a knife when he returned to Luoyang this time.

But Cai Yong still came, and he still came with his family, which means a little different, maybe because Cao Jie, the regular servant who once put him in danger, has died, or Cai Yong can find a safe place near Luoyang, so he doesn't need to worry too much about the safety of his family.

The crowd traveled day and night, and finally arrived in Luoyang, the capital at the end of August. Just two years ago, Su Xiu was still a grass farmer when he first came to Luoyang, and now after two years, when he returned to Luoyang again, he was the county guard of the bandits in Taishan County, and this change in identity made Su Xiu feel a lot of emotion.

Everyone entered Luoyang, and Su Xiu sent Cai Yong safely to Ma Riyan's mansion, and then turned around and went to the Hero Building to stay.

"Uncle, who is that young man just now, don't you know that your identity is sensitive now, shouldn't too many people know that you are back in Luoyang? Why did you let someone who didn't know the details send you over? Ma Riyan saw the scene of Su Xiu sending Cai Yong from a distance, and waited for Su Xiu to leave before pulling Cai Yong and asking.

"Uncle Weng is worried, this person is Taishan County Shou Su Pingdi, on the way we met the mountain bandits, thanks to Pingdi's shot I survived, and along the way I was observing this person, found that he was humble and polite, gentle and elegant, and had a gentleman's style. Besides, this person is also a person with great ambitions, and the song "Out of the Stopper" came from his mouth, isn't Uncle Weng still at ease with such a person? ”

"Oh? It's him? I remember that Zhang Rang recommended this person to His Majesty the year before last, saying that this person is a man of great martial arts and has the style of a general, and asked His Majesty to grant him the post of Taishan County Keeper to observe the after-effects. Although this person is like what Bo Ji said, but getting too close to the eunuchs is not a good thing after all, and we have to guard against it. ”

"Haha, Uncle Weng is too worried, Pindi told me about this on the road, when he asked me a question, I think it's very interesting, I might as well ask you today."

"What's the problem?" Ma Riyan wondered in his heart, what was the problem that made Cai Yong agree with his official donation.

"He said, 'Ask the sworder, rightly?' Incredible? ’”

What kind of problem is this, Ma Riyan is puzzled, this is completely different from what he said?

Seeing that his old friend was puzzled, Cai Yong smiled slightly and said: "The knife, the soldier, use it rightly, and use it evilly." If the sword is evil, it is evil, and if it is punished, it is good, so the good and evil of the sword are all in the person who uses the sword. ”

"Now the same reason, although Su Pingdi said that he was the county guard of Taishan through Zhang Rang's donation, but he did not hurt the heavens and reason, and in the fish and meat township, he did not raise taxes privately, collect and scrape the people's fat, but suppressed the bandits, leaned on taxes, emphasized agriculture and mulberry, and built roads, all of which were used by him for reasonable and legal income, so why should we exclude such a wise person?"

Hearing Cai Yong's evaluation of him, Ma Riyan really didn't expect Su Xiu to be such a person, people say that he is an official for one term and benefits one party, since ancient times, he has only heard that being an official is only to make money, and he has never heard that being an official is to send money out.

"Uncle, then why do you say he donated this county guard? The person who can spend money to buy a county guard must not care about that little bit of money, and after he took office, he kept sprinkling money to build the local area, forgive me for being lonely and unheard, I have never seen such a sage since ancient times. ”

"I don't know about this, didn't you call Zishi and Zigan in a few days. Are they really righteous? When the time comes, you give him an invitation letter and ask on the spot, won't you understand? ”

"Alright, that's it."
