The envoy of the Xiongnu was a Han Chinese named Xiao Ping. After claiming to be the founding meritorious Xiao He of the Han Dynasty, he said that he had been filial piety and honesty, and he had also been a small official in the capital. Later, during the Li Guo Rebellion, the Xiongnu entered the area of Kou Sili in a big way, and was captured by the Huns, because Zuoxian King Hu Chuquan saw that he could write a book, so he asked for a Xiongnu woman as a wife, and gradually became a Hu person. This time, he was entrusted by Hu Chuquan and Ah He, and specially came to the party to negotiate, hoping to exchange for Shan Yufuluo's body.

"Since Xiao Envoy is Xiangguo, I will sell you a face. Three thousand horses and one woman will return the body of Yuvro Shan Yu to you. Yuan Mai sat down behind the desk of the Chinese army's big tent and threw out his conditions straight to the point.

Xiao Ping thought for a while and said frankly: "Although Ping is now in Hudi, his heart is still in the Han family. Since Gongzi put forward the conditions, I will tell the truth, I came to the party this time, but I was entrusted by King Zuo Xian and King Zuo Gu Li, one of them is the younger brother of Shan Yu, and the other is the son of Shan Yu, in order to exchange for the remains of the Han Dynasty, I want to come to 3,000 war horses. I just don't know what kind of woman Childe wants? Do you want a young and beautiful woman of the Huns, or a Han woman? ”

"Since Envoy Xiao is a Han Chinese, do you know Cai Yong?" Yuan Mai took a sip of tea, "The woman I want is his daughter Cai Yan, Cai Wenji!" ”

"Uh...... Is it Cai Yanshi? Xiao Ping's complexion changed suddenly.

Seeing Xiao Ping's face, Yuan Mai was overjoyed, originally worried that he didn't know that Cai Yan was now in the hands of the Hu people, if he was in the hands of ordinary military generals and captains. At present, there is no dedication to King Zuoxian, and it is much more difficult to find it.

In Yuan Mai's memory, Cai Yan's Xiongnu husband was not Hu Chuquan, but the next Zuoxian King after Hu Chuquan succeeded Shan Yu, his name is Liu Bao, but I don't know who this Liu Bao is?

Yuan Mai had inquired about the Xiongnu captives, but he didn't know that there was such a figure among the Xiongnu nobles, so Yuan Mai was a little worried, for fear that he would not be able to find Cai Yan's whereabouts. At this moment, after seeing Xiao Ping's changes, the hanging heart finally landed. The story of "Wen Ji Returns to Han" can finally be completed by himself. In the future, it will definitely leave a mark in history. Spread it to the good talk!

"Oh. Listening to the tone of the envoy Xiao, he seems to know Cai Yan? That's all the more wonderful. You go back and report to King Zuoxian, as long as you promise to send Cai Yan here, plus three thousand high-quality horses, you can exchange it for Shan Yu's corpse. I've ordered someone to embalm. Within ten days. It's all right! Yuan Mai drank tea while drinking. He said unhurriedly.

Xiao Ping sighed and said: "I really don't dare to hide from my son, Cai Wenji's name is very loud in Hu, and the villain is Han with her." Sympathy, how do you not know? The lyrics and songs she made were widely sung among the Hu people, and "Poems of Grief and Indignation" and "Hu Ji Eighteen Beats" made the Hu people cry when they heard it. It's just that what makes the villain embarrassed is that she is now the Yan clan of King Zuogu Li, and the king Ahe Gui is very fond of her, and has already given birth to two sons, I'm afraid this matter will be difficult to do! ”

Hearing that Cai Yan's reputation had spread among the Huns, and that her masterpiece had also come out, Yuan Mai's last worries were finally completely put down.

On the issue of whether to welcome back Cai Yan, Yuan Mai had a conflict. I am worried that her work has not yet come out, and if she is brought back to Han now, I am afraid that her heirloom work is likely to die in the womb. After all, poetry can only be created in one go when it is immersive, and it is difficult to create a masterpiece in a different environment.

I have a limited knowledge of literature, and I don't know anything about the poems written by Cai Yan, so I can't remind her in the future. And if Cai Yan did not have these works handed down, her status would no longer exist in history, and the story of "Wen Ji Returning to Han" would not be passed on as a beautiful story, after all, people in later generations will not recall what happened to an ordinary woman.

However, if you don't take this opportunity to ask Cai Yan back, I'm afraid that because of the butterfly effect caused by her own crossing, Cai Wenji won't know what year and month she will have to wait until she wants to return to her homeland in the future.

Moreover, if you give up this opportunity, what will you use to ask Hu Ren for Cai Yan in the future? Yuan Mai didn't think that he would be able to reach Cao Cao's ruling strength in history in a short period of time, so that the Huns did not dare to disobey their will, and obediently sent Cai Yan back to Han soil.

"No, the horses can be subtracted slightly, but Cai Wenji must return to Han!"

Yuan Mai sympathized with Cai Yan's tragic experience from the bottom of his heart, and when he heard that Cai Yan's masterpiece had come out, he didn't have any worries, so he was determined to welcome Cai Yan back, even if he gave fewer horses.

Cai Yan married Wei Zhongdao, a talented man from Hedong, when he was fifteen years old, and he was a good match, one wrote poems and the other painted, and lived a happy life. It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, and two years later, Wei Zhongdao kicked his legs and died. In this era, women rarely remarry, and most of them have to keep chastity for their husbands for a lifetime, not to mention a great Confucian like Cai Yong, so he resolutely opposes his daughter's return home and lets him observe the festival for her husband in the Wei family.

Cai Yan stayed in her husband's house for half a year, suffered all kinds of white eyes from the Wei family, and was scolded as a mourning star and a kefu, arrogant, and full of talent, where could Cai Yan stand this humiliation, and returned to her parents' house despite her father's opposition.

Cai Yong is a great Confucian in the world, so he naturally does not allow his daughter to disobey women's morals. What kind of system does a daughter do not observe for her husband and run home without permission? So Cai Yong ordered someone to lock Cai Yan in the backyard and let her think about it alone.

At this time, Wang Yun and Lu Bu successfully assassinated Dong Zhuo, and the corpses were on the streets, and the people cheered, but the Cai family ushered in bad luck. On Wang Yun's wine feast, everyone talked about Dong Zhuo's death, Cai Yong sighed, which made Wang Yun furious, so Cai Yong was imprisoned, Cai Yong was executed despite the opposition of the scholars, his family property was confiscated, and his family was expelled from Chang'an.

After that, Li Dao and Guo Yan raised troops and captured Chang'an, and the land of Sizhou was full of smoke. The Huns took the opportunity to enter the Kou and plundered, Cai Yan unfortunately became one of the women who were taken captive, because of her beauty, she was dedicated to the son of the Xiongnu Shan Yu, the king of Zuogu Li, Ahegui. Although Cai Yan was unwilling and tried her best to resist, how could a weak woman compete with the times? After all, she became the woman of the Xiongnu prince, and gave birth to two sons one after another.

Ah Hegui admired Cai Yan's talent and admired her beauty, so he canonized Cai Yan as his own Yan, which was very favorable. It's just a weak female stream, who was kidnapped to a foreign country, and misses her homeland day and night, but she can't go back to see it, so she can only wash her face with tears all day long. It's extremely uncomfortable to think about it, so there are masterpieces like "Poems of Grief and Indignation" and "Eighteen Beats of Hu Ji" that are full of sadness and sorrow.

A woman full of talent, with such a bumpy fate, is upside down, and her face is thin, how can she not make people sigh and sympathize? Therefore, Yuan Mai was determined to welcome Cai Yan back to Handi.

Seeing Yuan Mai's resolute attitude, Xiao Ping said in embarrassment: "The villain can't be the master of this matter, if the son asks for horses, he can agree to five thousand horses." Only Cai Yan is the king's clan, but the villain does not dare to agree. ”

Tian Feng, who was sitting next to him, interjected: "If not, let the Huns add another 3,000 war horses, can you?" ”

Yuan Mai didn't sell Tian Feng's face this time, and refused again: "No!" Horses can be reduced, but Cai Wenji must return to Han. Go back and tell your king, if you don't agree, let Shan Yu's body rot in the Han land! ”

"Childe, please forgive the villain's daring words......"

Xiao Ping hugged his wrist and saluted again, and continued: "Although Cai Yan is beautiful, the years are unforgiving, and now she is a woman in her twenties. There are as many beauties in the world as a carp crossing the river, why does the son have to covet a woman who has given birth to a child? When I came, King Huchuquan once instructed me that if the prince wanted a beautiful woman, King Zuo Xian and King Zuo Gu Li were willing to offer the most beautiful woman among the Hu people, Helan Zhi, who was twenty-eight years old and had not yet been married, so she only wanted to be able to exchange for Shan Yu ......."

"Nonsense!"

Yuan Mai was furious, and slapped the case heavily and reprimanded: "You are also Han, and you also call yourself Xiao Xiangguo, don't you sympathize with Cai Wenji's experience?" I insisted on welcoming her back, just because I admired her talent, sympathized with her plight, and never touched it. How dare you speculate on the child's frank intentions with the heart of a villain? If it weren't for the fact that you are a Han Chinese, you would have cut off your head and sent it back to the leader of the Huns! ”

Xiao Ping was frightened into a cold sweat, and said with a salute: "The villain lost his words, and the son forgives the sin!" ”

Yuan Mai turned his head to stare at Tian Feng and asked, "I welcome back Cai Wenji for the Han people, is it okay?" ”

"Yes!" Tian Feng finally understood what Yuan Mai meant, and thought that he coveted Cai Yan's beauty, but it turned out that he had misunderstood him like the Hun envoy.

Yuan Mai stared at Xiao Ping with cold eyes, and said loudly: "I originally only wanted to ask for three thousand war horses and Cai Wenji, since Xiao Envoy said that King Zuo Xian prepared the most beautiful woman among the Huns for me, then please go back and convey my meaning, if you want to exchange for Yu Fuluo's corpse, you will send three thousand high-grade war horses, and Cai Wenji and He Lanzhi are two beauties, if there is one less, everything is not to be discussed!" ”

After finishing speaking, Yuan Mai got up and brushed his sleeves away, and said to Zhou Cang, "Send off!" ”

Becoming a king and defeating a coward, since ancient times, it was you Huns who kidnapped and plundered my Han women, and spoiled them at will, this time I will take the most beautiful woman among your Hu people, and I also want you to taste the taste of your women being Han xxoo, since you sent it to the door, why don't you want it? Don't ask for nothing, don't ask for nothing!

Being able to sleep with the most beautiful Hu woman in this era is also a thing to be proud of! It's not in vain that I'm a traverser, the Han men of later generations, you should be proud of me!

PS: It's the end of the month, who is pitiful and pitiful to give a monthly pass? Poor, pitiful...... (To be continued......)
