After gently opening the bamboo slips, I saw a line of delicate and beautiful small characters appear in front of me, but after looking carefully, the words were indeed filled with strong longing, sorrow, and expectation, Yuan Xi's face became more and more cold, and an irrepressible evil aura burst out, making Xu Shu and Yan Rou in the car tremble in their hearts.

After reading it all, Yuan Xi held the bamboo slip tightly, calmed the mood in his heart, and after a long time, he spoke: "Xi knows about this matter, Miss Cai misses her homeland and misses her relatives every day, her experience is sad, Xi will think of a way, be sure to bring her back"

"Hou Ye is benevolent," Xu Shu and Yan Rou immediately saluted.

Yuan Xi smiled bitterly, if according to his inner thoughts, at this moment, he must wave an army of 100,000 to completely exterminate the Xiongnu who had been beaten by Emperor Wu, but first the battle of Wuhuan, and then Liaodong, whether it is grain and grass, or soldiers, it will take a period of time to recuperate, and more importantly, the battle of the Central Plains, maybe in this year or two, this is related to his great cause, so he must not act impulsively, Cai Wenji is pitiful, but if you want to ignore the great cause for this woman, Yuan Xi asked himself if he couldn't do it, He needs time now, and he only hopes that the Han can still have some residual power, first find a way to bring Cai Wenji back through trading, and after he integrates the northern land and seizes power, he will completely eliminate the Xiongnu clan.

"Don't leak this matter for the time being, our army has won big victories one after another, and the generals are very proud in their hearts, if they dare to hear this, they will definitely be angry and actively ask for battle, which will affect the cultivation of our army," Yuan Xi reminded solemnly.

"No!" The two hurriedly replied.

After returning to the Thorn Mansion, it was naturally a grand banquet, Yuan Xi smiled and drank with Yan Rou, and all the civil and military people also drank quite happily, about midnight, the banquet was over, Yuan Xi summoned Li Ru and Han Yan in the study, as for Yan Rou because he drank too much, he was carried back by Yan Fang and Pang Tong, and Xu Shu couldn't wait to go back to see his mother.

"Zipei, are you ready for tomorrow's reward?" Yuan Xi asked, today is a banquet, and tomorrow is to officially reward the meritorious heroes of the Liaodong War.

"Master Hou is at ease, it's ready," Han Yan said.

"Okay" Yuan Xi nodded, handed Cai Wenji's letter to the two of them, and said, "Take a look."

After Li Ru took it curiously, he looked at it slowly, his brows couldn't help frowning, and his face was a little ashamed, he was also responsible for this matter, it was really Dong Zhuo and Li Dao who were making trouble in Guanzhong back then, and the Huns took advantage of the opportunity to snatch this famous talented woman of the Han Dynasty.

The "bastard" only heard an angry shout, and Yuan Xi and Li Ru both looked at Han Yan in surprise.

"Zipei, do you know Miss Cai?" Yuan Xi looked at Han Yan, who was flushed with anger and anger in his eyes, and said with a little surprise.

Han Yan realized that he had lost his temper at this time, and immediately blamed himself: "When Yan once went to Luoyang to study, he was taught by Cai Zhonglang and met Miss Cai, but there were frequent battles in the past few years, although Yan had heard that Miss Cai was robbed, but he couldn't do anything."

"I see, Miss Cai's experience is sad, but at present, the main goal of our army is the battle of the Central Plains in the near future, although the Great Huns have been disabled by Emperor Wu, but it is currently estimated that there are still 70,000 or 80,000 soldiers, and our army can naturally be eliminated, but I am afraid that there will be an accident that will affect the development of the future, Xi means that Miss Cai will be redeemed with a lot of money first, you see how " Yuan Xi said.

"Master Hou, judging from the letter, Miss Cai seems to have rewarded the Xiongnu nobles with that bastard of King Zuoxian, so what if the Xiongnu don't want to?" Han Yan frowned and asked.

"Then scare them, wave the Wuhuan Eight Banners, and the Iron Guards on the Murong Grassland, and put on a posture of not giving up, and then explain that Xi has received the grace of Cai Zhonglang, and it is necessary to bring his widow back, and the current Huns will never go to war with us in Youzhou for a woman" Yuan Xi said confidently.

Han Yan's face froze, and after a trace of determination and helplessness flashed in his eyes, he said: "Hou Ye, don't be afraid of 10,000, just in case, Hou Ye's great cause is the most important, Yan looks at this matter as if it is delayed, and then make a decision after the battle of the Central Plains is over."

Han Yan is a grateful person, but the most important thing in his heart is Yuan Xi's great cause, for this, he would rather let Cai Wenji suffer something.

After Yuan Xi glanced at Han Yan with relief, he looked at Li Ru, who was suddenly silent, and said curiously: "Strategist, why don't you speak?"

Li Ru smiled slightly and said: "Master Hou, Zipei, in fact, this matter doesn't need to be so troublesome, if Yuan Gong is willing to follow, it will definitely get twice the result with half the effort."

"Father" Yuan Xi was surprised.

"Yes, Yuan Gong has a good name, if this matter reaches his ears, he will definitely not take it lightly, not to mention that Cai Zhonglang was famous all over the world back then, and his prestige in the hearts of scholars is extremely high, if this matter is done well, it can greatly enhance the benevolence and prestige of Yuan Gong, and even the entire Yuan family, maybe even Cao Cao of Xu Du will personally send a letter over, let Yuan Gong help, and the Son of Heaven will send a holy decree, from the perspective of Confucianism, this matter should not be treated as just a private feeling" Li Ru said seriously.

Yuan Xi's pupils shrank, and after thinking for a while, he slapped the wooden case, stood up excitedly, and said: "The words of the military advisor are to make Ximao suddenly open, and Wen Ji will return to Han, which can indeed become a propaganda weapon for my Yuan family to flaunt benevolence, although my father is the master, but my children will also receive huge benefits, this is a major event of the Yuan family."

There are two sides to the matter, in addition to personal feelings, in Yuan Xi's heart, this is still a political matter, and if it is handled well, it can make all the scholars and people in the world admire the virtues of the Yuan family.

"As long as Master Hou writes a letter, with the vision of many strategists in Yecheng and the help of Lord Tian, Yuan Gong will definitely take action, this matter is beneficial to the entire Yuan family, even if it is the third son, the eldest prince will support them" Li Ru said with a smile.

"Yes, yes, but Xi's writing is not good, Zipei, you write a letter and send it to your father along with Miss Cai's copy, remember that the tone should be angry, sad, and reflect the blood of a Han man," Yuan Xi instructed.

"No!" Han Yan immediately responded, a hint of excitement flashing across his face.

After saying this, Yuan Xi suddenly thought of something and said, "By the way, Xi almost forgot about Goguryeo, military advisor, have you chosen a person?" ”

Some time ago, he was going to knock Goguryeo on it, but there were so many things that he almost left it behind.

"I chose a few, but" I saw Li Ru look at Han Yan helplessly.

"Master Hou, Yan also knows about this matter, it is better to let Zheng'er go" Han Yan immediately said, blackmailing Goguryeo, and the money obtained must be recorded in the government affairs hall and then pressed, he naturally knew that he would let his son go at that time, but Li Ru was worried about Han Zheng's safety and did not agree immediately.

Yuan Xi raised his eyebrows and said, "Xi doesn't need to look at it!" There are still many things in Lelang County, and Han Zheng can't get rid of it, so this matter will be handed over"

"Hou Ye" Han Yan suddenly shouted, and said seriously: "Han Zheng has no merit, he is indeed in the respect of Taishou, please Hou Ye must give him this opportunity, since he has already gone out, he is not Yan's son, but Hou Ye's minister, others go, why can't he go"

Looking at Han Yan, who had a firm tone and a stubborn expression, Yuan Xi was both moved and helpless: "Okay then!" Let Han Zheng send an envoy to Goguryeo and bring 300 armored soldiers, be careful"

"Thank you, Hou Ye," Han Yan immediately said gratefully.

"These two things are done together, remember, these two are important matters in the house, one is for fame, the other is for profit, and there is no room for negligence," Yuan Xi ordered.

"No!"
