Chapter 35 There is a phoenix
The peaceful days were not easy to come by, Wang Xuan didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, after all, his territory was still connected to the gateway of the mountain and sea world, if he didn't work hard to improve his strength, what could he use to resist the alien beasts of the mountain and sea world?
With his current physical strength, which could withstand stronger currents, the hand-cranked generator could no longer meet his requirements, so he asked his craftsmen to build other generators.
Until this day, the great Confucian Cai Yong went south to Danyang County, and also took Wang Xuan's fiancée Cai Yan with him.
There is no doubt that Cai Yong's southward trip this time is related to Wang Xuan's marriage. He is not young, and he has long reached the age when he should get married and have children.
He put down all his work in the morning and took Lu Su, Zhang Fei, Sun Ce and others out of the city for ten miles to greet him.
It didn't take long to see two carriages slowly coming from the north, with more than a dozen family members clustered in front and behind the carriages, as well as two or three hundred soldiers and horses from Lujiang County.
In today's world, if you don't go far away with some family guards, it is an extremely dangerous thing. After all, not long after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, many Yellow Turban remnants fled into the mountains and forests, directly turning into bandits and bandits, blocking traffic.
When they passed through Lujiang County, Zhou Yu and Wen Cheng were worried that something would happen to Cai Yong's father and daughter, so they sent two or three hundred Lujiang soldiers to guard the surroundings.
Wang Xuan hurriedly greeted him, personally opened the window of the carriage, and saw an old man about fifty years old walking down from the carriage.
This person is Cai Yong Cai Bojiao, one of the great Confucians in the late Han Dynasty, and also Wang Xuan's father-in-law.
"Master Cai, you and I have been separated for a few months, have you been in good health recently?" Wang Xuan saluted respectfully.
Cai Yong is a great Confucian in the late Han Dynasty, and he is quite famous at home, even if Wang Xuan is a county guard, he must be treated with courtesy, which has a great effect on attracting other scholars to vote.
Not to mention that Cai Yong is Wang Xuan's father-in-law, and he is respectful to his father-in-law, and there is nothing to embarrass him.
Cai Yong looked at Wang Xuan with a smile: "Zichuan, you and I are both family members, so you don't have to go out of the city to greet you, delaying your business." ”
The two of them smiled brighter than the other, Wang Xuan was extremely satisfied with this family business, and Cai Yong also liked Wang Xuan's son-in-law very much.
"Zichuan, not long ago, I received an edict from the imperial court, calling me to go to Luoyang to make sacrificial wine. I don't know how long it will take to come back, so I will entrust Zhaoji to you, you can get married as soon as possible, and I can go to Luoyang with peace of mind. Cai Yong directly explained his intentions.
Wang Xuan faintly heard a coquettish cry from the carriage behind him, and the voice came from Miss Cai Yan.
Wang Xuan and Cai Yan have been engaged for several years, and at the beginning, Cai Yong was still avoiding trouble in Jiangnan, worried that Wang Xuan would be implicated, so although the marriage letters were exchanged between the two parties and the marriage contract was made, the marriage was not officially completed.
Finally, Cai Yong got away with the crime, the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out again, Wang Xuan led his men to fight in all directions, and more than a year passed in a blink of an eye, delaying the marriage.
When Wang Xuan sat in the position of the Taishou of Danyang County, spent a few months firmly grasping the entire Danyang County in his hands, and was about to send someone to pick up Cai Yan's young sister to come over to complete the marriage, the world of mountains and seas came again, and Wang Xuan didn't want Cai Yan to come over and take risks.
Cai Yong saw that his daughter was about to become an older leftover girl, and finally couldn't help it, and came to urge her to get married in person.
Wang Xuan's face was a little embarrassed, but since Cai Yong's father and daughter had come to the door, they should naturally take this opportunity to get married.
In addition, Wang Xuan heard what Cai Yong had just said clearly, and the imperial court recruited Cai Yong to Luoyang to serve as a sacrificial wine......
Now that Dong Zhuo has entered Luoyang, it is said that it is a conscription by the imperial court, but in fact, Dong Zhuo wants to forcibly summon Cai Yong as a sacrificial wine!
Wang Xuan naturally didn't want to watch his father-in-law go to Dong Zhuo to become an official, otherwise when the alliance of princes was fighting for Dong, what should Dong Zhuo do if he killed Cai Yong directly?
This situation is very likely, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu are like this, when the alliance of princes begged for Dong, Dong Zhuo directly killed the Yuan family.
You must know that Yuan Shao's uncle Yuan Kui has served as a lieutenant and a prince, and he is a high and powerful position, and after the abolition of the post of prime minister in the Han Dynasty, the three dukes and the general are the highest official positions.
Dong Zhuo even killed Yuan Kui, and it is not uncommon to kill another Cai Yong to sacrifice to the sky.
Wang Xuan hurriedly persuaded him: "Master Cai, now that Dong Zhuo is in control of the court, most of the court orders are from his handwriting. Recruiting you to serve in Luoyang, this must be Dong Zhuo's hypocrisy! ”
Cai Yong smiled bitterly: "I also know that this is mostly Dong Zhuo's meaning, but after all, it is an order from the imperial court, and it is stamped with the seal of the Son of Heaven, so I have no reason to refuse." ”
Wang Xuan rolled his eyes when he heard this, knowing that Cai Yong still had something to say, he had avoided Jiangdong for more than ten years, and now he finally had the opportunity to become a leader, and he was still holding a high-ranking official position like "sacrificial wine", Cai Yong half-pushed and half-agreed, and had no intention of refusing.
This matter is not in a hurry, Wang Xuan's marriage is also a major event, and it will be delayed for at least ten days, and there is time to do ideological work for Cai Yong and leave Cai Yong behind.
They didn't stay outside the city, but turned around and rushed towards the Taishou Mansion.
Along the way, Cai Yong didn't pull down the curtain, he stared at the crack in the sky, his mouth opened slightly, and he couldn't close it for a long time.
"Zichuan, before I came to Danyang County, I heard people talk about the changes in your place, and I thought it was nonsense made up by others with false rumors. I didn't expect to see it with my own eyes today, and I knew that the rumors were true! Half a day later, Cai Yong exclaimed.
A smile appeared on the corner of Wang Xuan's mouth, and he introduced the changes that had happened in the recent period to his father-in-law, and pointed out the world of mountains and seas in detail.
"It's an extremely powerful world, and there may even be gods and demons in the world! Master Cai, instead of going to Luoyang as an official, you might as well stay in Danyang County and practice with me, not to mention immortality, if you can live for one hundred and eighty more years, wouldn't it be a beautiful thing? Wang Xuan tempted.
Cai Yong listened, and just wanted to reprimand: Zi is silent and strange to blame!
But the crack in the sky is still vivid, the sky may be cracked, and it is not unacceptable that there will be any gods and ghosts.
Wang Xuan took into account the changes in Cai Yong's expression, and knew that his father-in-law was a little moved, and it seemed that he only needed to add a little more strength to make it possible for Cai Yong to stay, and he didn't need to think about it anymore.
"After I return to the Taishou Mansion, I will discuss with Zhao Ji and let Zhao Ji do ideological work for Cai Yong!" Wang Xuan made up his mind.
Cai Yong came to Danyang County, and Wang Xuan was ready to marry, which was a big deal for the small forces in the entire Danyang County.
Only when Wang Xuan gets married and has children can he leave an heir, which has a great effect on calming people's hearts.
Therefore, Lu Su and others treated this as a top priority and handled it in a big way.
