Cai Yan, the word Zhaoji, is the Cai Wenji that everyone is familiar with in later generations.

Historically, Cai Yan was taken away by the Southern Xiongnu until the eleventh year of Jian'an (207), when Cao Cao redeemed it from the Southern Xiongnu with gold.

It is still the eighth year of Jian'an, judging from Hu Chuquan's attitude towards Cai Yan, Yang Xiu judged that Hu Chuquan may have noticed that Cai Yan's identity was unusual, but he was still trying.

If it is delayed any longer, then Cai Yan's life experience will be exposed, and Hu Chuquan will definitely be impatient.

Among the Xiongnu tribes, the captive women were two-legged sheep, goods used for trade.

Although Cai Yan is already a woman, she has not given birth to a child, and she is from a family of poetry and books, so her temperament is different.

If she didn't get the protection of the Xiongnu nobles, her fate would be extremely sad.

"The soldiers of the Wei Mansion are strong and strong, why don't we enter the Huchuquan camp and directly take back Zhaoji?" Although Yang Xiu had a strategy, he didn't have any relationship with Hu Chuquan, and after thinking about it for a long time, he only thought of a way to rob him.

"Brother Dezu, I have another way, but I can save Cai Yan without blood, but I need you to join me to play a scene in front of Hu Chuquan." Wei Shi thought for a moment and said to Yang Xiu.

"What is the master's plan, Xiu must do it?" Yang Xiu was anxious and agreed repeatedly.

"Brother Dezu is erudite, when he knows the Yong area, since the beginning of the Yongguo, there is a tradition of tea picking, the tea of the Yongdi, the quality is good, praised by the world, but unfortunately, after the chaos in the world, Yong tea has no market, can only gradually decline."

"Shi heard that since Emperor Gaozu established the Han Dynasty, the imperial court set up a city on the border, and the Han people and the herdsmen in the north often traded, and the tea of the Han people has become the most important commodity for the Huns."

"If we can reach a deal with Hu Chuquan to exchange tea for horses, then the two sides have the possibility of cooperation, and I think Hu Chuquan will not be a big deal because of a Han woman."

Wei Shi took a good time to tell the calculations in his heart one by one.

The Xiongnu people like to drink tea, mainly because their diet is based on meat and cannot achieve a combination of meat and vegetables. Long-term consumption of meat is extremely harmful to people's health, and it will cause sepsis and death.

Drinking tea can clear the stomach and intestines, relieve greasy, and tea is easy to carry, store, will not deteriorate, as long as the hot water is boiled when you need to drink, it is very conducive to the use of herders.

The tea and horse trade has existed for thousands of years between Han Chinese and nomads.

This was the case in several dynasties such as the Han, Tang, Song, and Ming dynasties.

Hu Chuquan has a horse in his hand, and Wei Shi has tea in his hand.

Such the best of both worlds, I believe Hu Chuquan will not refuse.

"Fujun Mingjian, the Huns were divided into five divisions by the Great Sikong, Hu Chuquan, the king of Zuoxian, is no longer worthy of the name, and there are less than 10,000 people left in the tribe, in this case, Hu Chuquan will definitely not be satisfied."

"Today, Hu Chuquan must want to revive the former majesty and strengthen the strength of the people, this time, he came to Yaoguan for the purpose of finding a trade route to Jingzhou, otherwise, he would not be stranded."

Yang Xiu listened and nodded again and again.

Wei Shi's method of trading tea and horses is indeed more feasible than directly proposing to Hu Chuquan to ransom people.

Hu Chuquan got the benefits of tea, and his vigilance must have dropped greatly, so he took the opportunity to say that he wanted to go back to a Han woman, and Hu Chuquan could only agree even if he was reluctant.

"This matter will be handed over to Brother Dezu, and it is also a great credit to be able to invite back Cai Yong's daughter." Wei Shi laughed, and gave Yang Xiu another high hat.

Yang Xiu was immediately excited when he heard that Wei Shi had handed over this matter to him.

These children of the Gaomen clan value reputation.

Hu Chuquan was invited to watch the fight between Wei Shi and Ma Chao, and he was very frightened, he originally thought that with Ma Chao's bravery, he would defeat Wei Shi nine times out of ten.

Who would have expected, but the result surprised him.

Now, Wei Shi is still just a county guard of the Han people, but his scheming and scheming have convinced Hu Chuquan.

Yang Xiu got Wei Shi's reminder, and went back and forth with Hu Chuquan a few times, taking advantage of the fact that the two sides were drunk, he proposed that Wei Shi intended to trade tea and horses, and Hu Chuquan couldn't help but be overjoyed.

This time, he did have his own thoughts.

In the second year of Xingping (195), the Southern Xiongnu Shan Yu Fu Luo, and then according to the tradition of the Xiongnu brother and the younger brother, Shan Yu's position should be succeeded by the younger brother Hu Chuquan.

But this is not the case.

Cao Cao was very jealous of the Xiongnu because of Yu Fuluo's repeated opposition, and began to suppress and divide the Southern Xiongnu.

The department of Hu Chuquan was placed separately in the Puzi of Hedong County and the Linjin area of Fengyi County, and the rest of the right, south, north, and middle four departments were also placed separately, and the five departments were separated.

Such a result made Hu Chuquan feel like he was on pins and needles, he wanted to resist, but he didn't have the strength.

wanted to find a helper, but among the northern Han people, Yuan Shao, a prince who could compete with Cao Cao, had just died of illness.

"Wei Fujun intends to exchange tea and horses, this is a big deal, we Huns don't have anything else, there are many good war horses, if my left is not enough, the other five can also provide it."

"What? Wei Fujun fell in love with the woman next to me, so it goes without saying, if Wei Fujun wants it, just go there. After Hu Chuquan got the benefit, he waved his big hand arrogantly.

Compared with the benefits of tea, Cai Yan is really nothing as a woman.

This is also because Hu Chuquan doesn't know what Cai Yan's identity is.

He obtained Cai Yan from Liu Bao, the son of Yu Fuluo, and at that time he just felt that this Han woman's demeanor and conversation were different from ordinary village women, and at first glance she was a woman from a big family.

Hu Chuquan originally wanted to keep Cai Yan by his side, and prepare for the right time to collect it in the account.

Now that Wei Shi has taken a fancy to this woman, Hu Chuquan immediately changed his mind.

When Cai Yan was taken away by Yang Xiu, he still didn't believe it in his heart.

This time when she came to Yaoguan, she also came with the hope of being rescued, if she couldn't get rescued, then she could only accept her fate and tell her true identity to Hu Chuquan, in order to have a chance to live.

"If Zhao Ji is grateful, he will first thank Wei Fujun, Xiu is just a word, without Wei Fujun's idea, Zhao Ji wants to get out, I'm afraid it will not be easy."

Yang Xiu heard Cai Yan's words of gratitude, and he didn't take the credit, and directly pushed Wei Shi out.

"The concubine really didn't expect that Wei Fujun would value the concubine so much, and he didn't hesitate to risk the notoriety of Tonghu to save him, how can the concubine repay him?"

Cai Yan listened to Yang Xiu's narration, but his heart was stunned.

Wei Shi is just a small county Taishou, without asking for instructions to trade with the Huns and Hu people, this is a big crime, in case someone in the court takes this matter down, I am afraid that they will be held accountable.
