At this time, it was already afternoon, and two young men, one in a carriage with his entourage, and the other on a horse, arrived alone, and met unexpectedly in front of the governor's house.

As soon as the car stopped, the attendant quickly lifted the curtain, put the pedals, and a young man slowly stepped down from the car. This young man was very handsome, with a smooth and fair face, and dark and deep eyes, all of which exuded nobility and elegance, but from time to time he let out one or two gentle coughs, as if he had suffered from some wind chills.

At the moment when this young man got out of the car, a red horse turned at the intersection and went straight to the front of the state governor's mansion, and a young man was sitting right away. The young man on the horse was not only handsome, but could be described as beautiful, he was born with red lips and white teeth, a pair of black eyes as clear as crystal, and a handsome face with a hint of indifference, only the sword hanging from his waist showed a heroic spirit.

The two young men glanced at each other as they climbed the stairs. The guards guarding the gate of the mansion had already stopped them and inquired about their origins. It turned out that these two people were not all the way, and they came to the state governor's mansion to find no one person.

The young man who came by car was Wei Zhongdao, needless to say, what he was looking for was naturally Cai Yong.

The Wei family is not only the leading scholar family in Hedong, but also famous in the entire Han Dynasty, because they are the descendants of the great general Wei Qing, and there have been queens like Wei Zifu. In addition to Luoyang, Sili has the Wei family's industry in all places, and Chenliu, Jiyi and even Panyu have branches of the Wei family.

Wei Zhongdao had already made a marriage with Cai Yan, and was originally going to marry her in February, but unexpectedly, when Wei Zhongdao came to Luoyang again, he learned that Cai Yong's family had gone to Jingzhou with Liu Xin. Later, there was a Yellow Turban riot, and the road was blocked, so the matter was delayed.

The Wei family has many eyes and ears in Luoyang, and it is a big deal for Liu Xin to send someone to escort the taxes to the capital, so naturally he can't hide it from them. Wei Zhongdao came to Xiangyang this time, on the one hand, to help the family develop a business in Jingzhou to explore the way, and on the other hand, it was for himself and Cai Yan's family affairs. Wei Zhongdao once coveted Bian Yu's beauty, and had a holiday with Liu Xin for this reason, for most of the past half a year, although he has been in and out of the Qinlou Chu Pavilion as always, he has never met a woman who can really make him really tempted, because these people's appearance and talent are not as good as Bian Yu and Cai Yan.

Wei Zhongdao already knew that Cai Yong served as the head of Xiangyang Academy, and as soon as he arrived in Xiangyang, he asked for directions and went straight to the academy. Unexpectedly, Liu Xin regarded the two places of the academy and the research institute as the top priority of defense, and idle people were not allowed to enter or leave. No matter how rich Wei Zhongdao is, it is not easy to use it here, the guards in these places are all Flying Tiger guards, and without the orders of their superiors, they will not let anyone go. Wei Zhongdao was helpless, and when he heard that Cai Yong lived in the Prefecture Pastoral Mansion, he found here. However, when the guards guarding the door heard that he was coming to find Cai Yong, they still refused to let him in, because Cai Yong went out, and they would only let him go when Cai Yong came back.

Another young man came to find Liu Xin, but he refused to say his name, and he had to see Liu Xin. Liu Xin was in the house, and after the guards reported him, they let him in.

Liu Xin looked the young man in front of him up and down, he was too beautiful, a little too beautiful, if it was a woman, he would definitely fascinate many men.

The young man suddenly removed the crown from his head, revealing long black and shiny hair. Liu Xin looked at him carefully, as if he was familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

The young man's lips opened lightly and said, "Don't you know the people's daughter?" ”

Liu Xin woke up at this time, it turned out that this was a woman, wearing a man's clothes, I really didn't see it just now, no wonder I thought she was so beautiful. Liu Xin thought about it hard, but still couldn't remember who this woman was, so she said: "Forgive Liu's cloudy eyes, who is the girl?" ”

The woman was not angry, and said expressionlessly: "My lord is a noble person who forgets things, and the people's daughter is called Zhang Ning." ”

"Zhang Ning!" Liu Xin was taken aback, it turned out to be Zhang Jiao's daughter, she was dressed as a Taoist priest at that time, no wonder she didn't recognize it, and couldn't help shouting, "You are really bold, do you know what kind of place this is, and you dare to come here!" ”

Zhang Ning was not afraid at all, and said: "My lord, I still remember that my father once wanted to marry me to my lord last year. ”

Liu Xin also remembered that Zhang Bao came to talk about the matchmaker, nodded, and said, "There is such a thing, so what." Miss Zhang, I don't embarrass you, you better leave quickly, I'll treat you as if you've never been here. ”

Zhang Ning still said expressionlessly: "Don't adults dislike me for being ugly? ”

Liu Xin waved his hand and said, "That's not it, it's just that you and I don't know each other in our lives, and we really can't talk about it." ”

Zhang Ning said calmly: "As long as the adult helps me do something, I will be your person from now on, whether I am a concubine or a maidservant, it all depends on the words of the adult." ”

Liu Xin became alert and said: "Miss Zhang, I have a sentence that you may not like to hear, your father is no longer alive, the deceased is gone, and the living should be like this." Although I won't report you to the court, it's impossible for me to go against the court for you, and I can't help you with your business. Please let the girl go early, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble. ”

Zhang Ning looked at Liu Xin coldly and said, "I didn't expect that the dignified Jingzhou Mu was a timid and afraid person!" Don't worry, I don't want you to rebel, as long as you help me kill someone, do you do this kind of deal or not? ”

Liu Xin became curious and asked, "Who do you want me to kill?" ”

Zhang Ning's face did not suddenly show a fierce look, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Tang Zhou! ”

Liu Xin suddenly realized, he now knows that Zhang Ning's two senior brothers are the closest to her, she died in the hands of the senior brother Zhu Qing, but the second senior brother Tang Zhou betrayed Taiping Dao, it seems that this girl has memorized Zhang Jiao's death on Tang Zhou's head. Liu Xin suddenly saw the sword hanging from Zhang Ning's waist, this sword was too familiar to him. At the beginning of the river, Liu Xin asked master craftsmen to cast ten identical swords and give them to his cronies, and he also had one such sword in his house. Xu Huang gave the sword to Zhang Ning, Liu Xin knew, but he didn't expect that after so much time, Zhang Ning still tied this sword around his waist, so what does it mean? Liu Xin couldn't help laughing.

Seeing Liu Xin's smile on his face, Zhang Ning became nervous and said tremblingly, "You, agreed?" ”

Liu Xin put away her smile, shook her head, and said, "Miss Zhang, this matter is very important, you can sit down and wait for a while, let me think about it." ”

Liu Xin can't be careful, who is Zhang Ning, she is Zhang Jiao's daughter, if she helps her, it will be no different from a thief. Although the Yellow Turban was destroyed, there were still many remnants of the party, like Gong Du, Liu Pi, Zhou Cang, and Liao Hua later, and Zhang Ning was Zhang Jiao's daughter, if she came forward, these people would definitely be willing to come and join them. As for Tang Zhou's life and death, Liu Xin didn't take it to heart.

Weighing the pros and cons, Liu Xin couldn't make up his mind for a while, and asked, "Who else knows if you came here?" ”

Zhang Ning didn't hide it at all, and told him what he had happened at the moment, and said: "My father was already seriously ill when he confronted the official army in Guangzong, and he expected that defeat would not be far away. My father asked me to go to the south alone to get a miracle medicine, saying that it would cure him. After many twists and turns, I found the place that my father said, where there was any medicine, only a letter and a batch of jewels, which my father had left for me, telling me to live incognito and leave the country. I still didn't give up and wanted to return to Jizhou, but I learned about my father's death halfway. I was grief-stricken, and I was angry for a while, so I went north and went to Luoyang, wanting to slash the traitor Tang Zhou, but this guy was very cautious, and it was difficult for me to succeed alone. And the Yellow Turban Army has been defeated everywhere, and after a few thoughts, the only one who can help me avenge is you, my lord. ”

Liu Xin was silent for a long time and said, "In this way, no one else knows that you have come to me?" ”

Zhang Ning suddenly showed a frightened look on his face and asked, "Not bad." What do you mean, my lord? You have to kill people! ”

Liu Xin was stunned for a moment and said: "Where do you start with this, I, Liu, am also a good man who stands up to the sky, how could I do such a bad thing." ”

Zhang Ning breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then the adult promised me?" ”

Liu Xin nodded and said, "I can promise to help you take revenge, but there is one condition - marry first, and then kill!" ”

Zhang Ning's face changed uncertainly, and he bit his lip lightly, as if it was difficult to make this decision. Liu Xin looked at her with a smile on her face, and the air in the hall seemed to be frozen. Zhang Ning hesitated, gritted his teeth, and finally relented, and said, "Okay, I promise you." However, you have to swear that you must kill Tang Zhou! ”

Liu Xin said with a smile: "I won't make this oath, because I never believed that the oath could be fulfilled, so if I do, it means that I didn't make it." However, I, Liu Xin, speak and count, and promise to help you kill Tang Zhou, and I will definitely do it, but you have to give me some time. ”

Zhang Ning had already let it go, held down the sword in his hand and said, "As long as you help me do this, I will promise you anything." But if you don't keep your word, don't blame me for being ruthless! ”

Liu Xin laughed: "Okay, then we will make a decision, and we will get married after three days." From now on, you will live in my house for the time being, and do not reveal your origin to anyone except your wife. ”

Wei Zhongdao sat back in the car, looked out through the curtains of the car, and the young man who met him in front of the mansion entered the state pastor's mansion, but he didn't come out until now, and even the jujube red horse was led in, and he still had to wait outside. Today he wants to see Cai Yong no matter what, he has lost Bian Yu, Cai Yan is determined to win, not to mention that she was originally his fiancée, thinking of this, Wei Zhongdao couldn't help but cough violently.

It wasn't until dusk that a group of cavalry appeared at the entrance of the alley, escorting a carriage and slowly driving towards the gate of the governor's mansion. The car stopped, the curtain was lifted, and a radiant old man slowly walked down.

Wei Zhongdao fixed his eyes and saw that it was Cai Yong. Cai Yong's complexion is many times better than when he was in Luoyang, and he is obviously doing well in Jingzhou. Wei Zhongdao hurriedly ran forward, bowed deeply to Cai Yong, and said, "Late Wei Zhongdao to meet Mr. Thinking that these few steps were in a hurry, he couldn't help but cough violently again.
