After Wu Chen Qun completed the task of killing Erzhang, he wanted to raise troops and return to Shaomu Mountain, because he knew that Luoyang City would be very chaotic next, so Chen Qun didn't want to miss this opportunity.

But before Chen Qun had time to say goodbye to Liu Yu at the celebration banquet, Gongsun Zhan quarreled with Liu Yu. The reason is very simple, Gongsun Chan advocated the use of force to govern the Qianghu people, but Liu Yu insisted on using kindness and Xinyi to surrender, so the two quarreled, and Gongsun Chan directly said goodbye and left.

After Gongsun Zhan left, Chen Qun got up and hugged his fist at Liu Yu and said, "Liu Zhoumu, I shouldn't have interfered in this matter, but as a son of the Han Dynasty, I still want to say what I mean." ”

"If the head of the Chen family has something to say, please don't be polite!" Liu Yu looked at Chen Qun and said.

Chen Qun nodded to Liu Yu: "The younger generation thinks that the starting point of Liu Zhoumu and General Gongsun Zan is for the sake of the long-term peace and stability of the Han Dynasty, so there is no contradiction in nature, and the contradiction is only that the means adopted are inconsistent. The younger generation thought that it would be better to combine the strategies of Liu Zhoumu and General Gongsun Zhan, and perhaps the effect would be better. ”

Liu Yu nodded when he heard this: "I know the kindness of the head of the Chen family, but the Qianghu clan is also my Han people!" We can't classify them as aliens just because they don't farm, that's inherently wrong. However, after the Chen family master said this, I am not very angry with Gongsun Zhan. Thank you for the relief of the Chen family. ”

Chen Qun smiled at Liu Yu: "Liu Zhoumu is too polite!" Liu Zhoumu, the matter here is over, and the younger generation plans to rush home, after all, my two uncles, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, still have official orders. ”

Liu Yu nodded and said: "Okay, then I won't force you to stay, pay attention to safety on the road, the people of Jizhou are fierce, and there are people who practice martial arts everywhere, you have to go all the way through Jizhou, you must be more careful." ”

"Thank you Liu Zhoumu for the reminder!" Chen Qun got up and saluted Liu Yu with a fist.

"Liu Zhoumu, the next official has resigned!" Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun also got up to say goodbye to Liu Yu.

Chen Qun and his entourage then left Liu Yu's mansion and led the army back to various territories.

In mid-June, Chen Qun, Xu Shu, Huang Zhong, Pang De, and Chen Zhi returned to Shaomu Mountain with 3,000 archers, 4,000 Chen Jiawei, and 5,000 Danyang Wei.

In the battle with Erzhang, most of the soldiers and horses of Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun were in battle, so the guards who went to the Chen family were almost not damaged.

After Chen Qun returned to Shaomu Mountain, he was surrounded by Li Bing'er, Cai Yan and Zhang Ning.

After Zhang Ning successfully led the uprising of the Yellow Turban Army in Baibo Valley last year, she returned to Shaomu Mountain in July under the persuasion of Zhou Cang and Liao Hua, and Zhang Ning herself had to admit that she had been deeply attracted by Chen Qun.

Zhang Ning didn't expect the three girls to wait for Chen Qun to come back on Shaomu Mountain, and it would be a year to wait, so after Chen Qun came back, the three girls excitedly stepped forward and surrounded Chen Qun, and kept asking Chen Qun what he had done in the past year and a half, and Chen Qun patiently answered with the three girls one by one.

After the three girls finished playing, Cai Yan smiled at Chen Qun and said, "Changwen, do you like Bing'er?" ”

Li Bing'er instantly wilted when she heard this, and she lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Chen Qun.

Chen Qun didn't know why Cai Yan suddenly mentioned this stubble, but he didn't want to go against his heart, so he looked at the shy Li Bing'er and smiled: "Of course I like it, I haven't seen it for almost two years, and my Bing'er is getting more and more beautiful." ”

After hearing Chen Qun's joking words, Cai Yan said with a straight face: "Changwen, since you like Bing'er, why don't you marry her?" Now Bing'er is eighteen years old, and when she reaches the age of marriage, you don't want to disappoint her. ”

Chen Qun smiled when he heard this: "I am Bing'er's brother, how can I marry her?" Besides, Bing'er is only eighteen years old, and she is still young, so I will find a good in-law for Bing'er in two years. ”

"Cousin, I'm not young anymore! I don't want you to find me a good in-law, I'm going to marry you! You're not really my cousin, and I'm not going to be your sister. Li Bing'er suddenly looked up at Chen Qun Zhengse.

Chen Qun was stunned when he heard this, his mind was a little unturned, but he realized that if he didn't give Li Bing'er an explanation, Li Bing'er would definitely be angry.

Chen Qun figured out this and smiled after thinking about it: "Good Bing'er, good sister, if you really want to marry your brother, then your brother will marry you in two years." ”

"Poof! Brother, you have to talk and count, otherwise Bing'er will only die! Now the whole mountain city says that I am a lady, if you don't marry me, just wait to collect my body! Li Bing'er looked at Chen Qun's eyes and said.

Chen Qun didn't expect the matter to be so serious, he nodded to Bing'er and said, "Okay, my brother promised you, wait for two years, you will be twenty years old, and my brother will marry you." ”

Li Bing'er nodded shyly, and then whispered, "What about Sister Wen Ji and Sister Zhang Ning?" They like you too. ”

Chen Qun shook his head when he heard this: "Marriage is not a child's play, I can make decisions about the affairs of the two of us, Wen Ji and Zhang Ning can't be so casual." ”

The tears in Cai Yan's eyes rolled down instantly when she heard this, and then she looked at Chen Qun: "Changwen, do you like me so much?" You should understand my heart, why I have been waiting for you to come back in the mountain city all these years, just to see you as soon as you come back.

You should be able to feel my heart for you, Changwen, you will give me a happy word today, if you don't like me Cai Wenji, I will disappear in front of you immediately, and I will never step into the mountain city half a step from now on, and I will never affect the good life of you and Bing'er sister again. ”

Chen Qun was immediately embarrassed when he heard this, he understood that Cai Wenji was the kind of character who was arrogant, and he could do what he said. And it's also false to say that he doesn't like Cai Yan.

Chen Qun saw that Cai Yan wanted to get up, and hurriedly grabbed Cai Yan's hand, so far, he could no longer refuse Cai Yan, he got up and hugged Cai Yan: "Wen Ji, I understand your heart, if you don't feel that you and Bing'er are wronged by marrying me together, of course I have no opinion." ”

Cai Yan hugged Chen Qun tightly when he heard this: "Changwen, I'm not wronged!" I'm not aggrieved at all! I'm so happy! As long as I can marry you, I will be happy! Sister Zhang Ning also wants to marry you with us, if you want, even she will marry together, and our three sisters will serve you well in the future. ”

Chen Qun let go of Cai Yan when he heard this, and then looked at Zhang Ning and shook his head: "Zhang Ning, you are very beautiful!" In my eyes, you are like a fairy, you like to wear light yellow and you are even more beautiful and have nothing to say, but I can't marry you again, I already have Bing'er and Wen Ji, I can't be greedy anymore, you should find a man who is a hundred times better than me. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Ning looked at Chen Qun with hazy eyes: "What if I want to?" If Bing'er and Wen Ji don't object to me marrying you, and I myself am willing to marry you, do you want to marry me? ”

Chen Qun looked at Zhang Ning and shook his head: "Zhang Ning, I'm sorry, I really can't promise you." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Ning ran out with tears in his eyes.

"Sister Ning! Sister Ning! ......" Li Bing'er hurriedly chased out.

Cai Yan looked at Chen Qun and said softly: "Changwen, Zhang Ning, she is indeed very beautiful and very good, I can see that she really likes you, and Bing'er and I can really accept her." ”

Chen Qun shook his head, then hugged Cai Yan and said, "Wen Ji, you are different from her, Zhang Ning is beautiful, but I can't marry her just because she is beautiful." I don't know anything about her, I don't have to be responsible for her, I can't marry her just because she likes me, marriage is not casual, whoever marries has to be responsible for who for a lifetime, so I can't hurt others, I don't have feelings for her. ”

Cai Yan didn't speak when he heard this, but leaned happily on Chen Qun's arms.

After a while, Cai Yan broke free from Chen Qun's arms: "Changwen, I'll go see Zhang Ning and Bing'er, I'm worried that Bing'er won't be able to enlighten Zhang Ning." ”

"Okay, you go! If she insists on leaving, let her go, and let Hua Er and Hua San escort her back to Luoyang. Chen Qun said softly.

Cai Yan nodded to Chen Qun, then turned to leave.

Chen Qun thought that he had agreed to accept Cai Yan, and with Cai Yan's character, he would definitely have a frolic, but he never thought that Cai Yan would be so well-behaved, and his personality before and after was like two people.

Zhang Ning rushed out of Chen Qun's room and rushed directly to the bottom of the Shaolin Mountain, and Hua Er and Hua San took the initiative to follow without Chen Qun's instructions.

After Li Bing'er chased him out, Hua Si and Hua Wu followed again. Then Cai Yan rushed out, and Hua Liu had no choice but to follow. Hua Liu was very puzzled, obviously the head of the family was talking and laughing with the third daughter and entered the room just now, why did they rush out one by one in the blink of an eye.

After Zhang Ning rushed to the gate of Shaomu Mountain City, he did not run down the mountain directly, but climbed up the stairs to the gate of Shaomu Mountain, climbed on the city wall and looked at the sky in the distance and shouted: "Dad, you saw it!" It's not that your daughter doesn't abide by your last wishes before she dies, it's that Chen Qun doesn't look down on her daughter at all! Woowoo woo ......"

Zhang Ning cried loudly after shouting.

"Sister Ning'er! Sister Ning'er! Don't be overfigured! Li Bing'er shouted as she ran towards Zhang Ning.

Li Bing'er ran to Zhang Ning's side and said softly: "Sister Ning'er, don't be like this, although Changwen has rejected you now, it doesn't mean that he will reject you in the future." ”

Zhang Ning looked at Li Bing'er with tears on his face and shook his head, then turned his head to look at the sky in the distance and said, "Sister Bing'er, you don't understand, Changwen rejected me today, and it will be too difficult for him to accept me again in the future!" And my sister is already twenty years old, unlike you who are only eighteen years old. ”

At this time, Cai Yan also caught up, she looked at Zhang Ning and frowned when she heard this: "Sister Ning'er, you want to open a little, if you really like Changwen, you shouldn't give up because of his rejection, I think the reason why Changwen rejected you may be because you have experienced a little less together." ”

Zhang Ning looked at Cai Yan and nodded: "Sister Wenji, you are right, my sister now knows what the problem is, congratulations to you and Bing'er, I wish you happiness, my sister can't stay in this mountain city anymore, my sister will go back to Luoyang first." ”

"Okay, then sister be careful on the road, Changwen instructed me to let Hua Er and Hua Jie escort you back to Luoyang." Cai Yan said softly.

Zhang Ning smiled bitterly when he heard this: "Okay, thank you for your kindness and farewell." ”

After Zhang Ning finished speaking, he turned around and went down the city tower, and then went down to Shaomu Mountain accompanied by Hua Er and Hua San.

After Zhang Ning left, Li Bing'er looked at Cai Yan and whispered, "Sister Wen Ji, I feel that Sister Ning Er is too pitiful!" Cousin, it would be great if he accepted her together, and the three of us sisters could work together in the mountain city in the future. ”

Cai Yan smiled slightly: "Good sister, sister can't say anything about feelings now, in short, Changwen he rejected Sister Ning'er, there must be his reasons, let's go back, don't let Changwen worry." ”

Li Bing'er nodded, and returned to Chen Qun's house with Cai Yan.

Chen Qun saw Li Bing'er and Cai Yan and said softly, "She's gone?" ”

Cai Yan nodded: "Yes." ”

Chen Qun smiled slightly: "That's good!" ”

After Chen Qun finished speaking, he said in a deep voice: "I want to go to Luoyang to live for a while recently, do you two want to go with me?" ”

"Go! Of course! Li Bing'er and Cai Yan said one after another.

Chen Qun nodded: "Okay, we will leave for Luoyang early tomorrow morning, and we will probably live in Luoyang City until the end of the year." ”

In mid-June, Chen Qun took Li Bing'er and Cai Yan, as well as Huang Zhong, Dian Wei, Pang De, 3,000 archers, and 4,000 Chen Jiawei to Chen's Mansion in Luoyang City, and lived quietly in Luoyang, but almost every day carrier pigeons flew out and into Chen's Mansion.

Since the accession of the young emperor, the young emperor's biological mother, the Empress Dowager He, began to listen to the government, the Empress Dowager He reused her mother's family, alienated the ten permanent servants and others, He Jin was appointed as a general, and He Jin reused Cao Cao and other children of the great family. However, He Jin did not recruit Chen Qun.

Empress Dowager He did not reuse eunuchs, which made the Ten Standing Servants and others very unhappy, and Jia Xu proposed to the Ten Standing Servants to let them join forces to get rid of the Empress Dowager He. So a big change began to brew in the palace.

Although Chen Qun stayed in Chen's mansion and did not go out, he accurately guessed the course of the matter based on the information provided by his brothers.

In July, Yuan Shao, a lieutenant colonel of He Jin's subordinate army, proposed to He Jin that all the eunuchs be punished, and He Jin accepted the proposal and made a proposal to the Empress Dowager He, but the Empress Dowager He refused He Jin on the grounds that the previous emperor had never done this.

He Jin said to the Empress Dowager He: "Empress Dowager, now you don't reuse the Ten Standing Attendants, but put the Ten Standing Attendants and others aside, if you don't go out of them, sooner or later there will be disaster!" The first emperor has been under the influence of the ten permanent servants and others during his lifetime, and the minister suggests that you do your best to punish the eunuchs. ”

Empress Dowager He shook her head and refused, and He Jin had no choice but to withdraw when he saw this.

After He entered and exited the Empress Dowager's palace and saw Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "General, how are things going?"

He Jin shook his head: "Empress Dowager He disagrees!" ”

Yuan Shao frowned when he heard this: "General, the ten permanent servants must be removed!" Otherwise, woe will come! ”

He Jin frowned and said: "I don't know this, but the Empress Dowager He doesn't agree, what can I do?" ”

Yuan Shao frowned when he heard this: "General, it is better for us to summon the fierce generals of the Quartet to enter Beijing to coerce Empress Dowager He to agree, as long as we can get rid of the eunuchs such as the Ten Standing Attendants, then the Han Dynasty will be fine." ”

He Jin nodded when he heard this: "Okay!" Then quickly recruit Dong Zhuo into Beijing. ”

After He Jin and Yuan Shao returned home, Yuan Shao quickly conveyed He Jin's general order, and Chen Lin, the chief secretary of the news, and Lu Zhi, the monk of the monk, asked He Jin one after another: "General, you now have a heavy army, if you want to get rid of the eunuchs, as long as you make up your mind, you must not summon Dong Zhuo into Beijing, Dong Zhuo will be in trouble after entering Beijing." ”

He Jin shook his head when he heard this: "You are worried about it, Dong Zhuo is my subordinate, he is not allowed to obey my orders, I summoned Dong Zhuo to Beijing just to get rid of the eunuchs in the palace, and then I will order Dong Zhuo to leave." ”

"General! ......" Lu Zhi wanted to speak again when he heard this, but was interrupted by He Jin: "Okay, I understand your intentions, let's all go down!" As long as I am here, Dong Zhuo can't turn the sky upside down. ”

Lu Zhi and Chen Lin looked at each other when they heard this, and then said goodbye and left.

After Lu Zhi returned home, he told Chen Qun about He Jin's decision, and Chen Qun sighed when he heard this: "He Jin, He Jin!" Why don't you call me? ”

Lu Zhi said in a deep voice when he heard this: "Changwen, at this critical juncture, you must not move, otherwise you will be burned." ”

Chen Qun smiled slightly: "Thank you uncle for reminding me, I know that I won't move, uncle, don't worry!" When Dong Zhuo is in trouble in Luoyang, it will be the time for me to act. ”

Lu Zhi nodded: "Okay, you can know it in your heart, and hang up if you have nothing to do." ”

After Chen Qun and Lu Zhi ended the call, they sighed: "The Han Dynasty is hopeless!" ”
