Chapter Seventy-Three: Two Women Clash with Each Other
Cai Yong took Cai Yan to the door of the Hussar General's Mansion, but was stopped by the soldiers. A sergeant centurion came to Cai Yong and spoke.
"The Hussar General's Mansion is not a guest today, Cai, please go back"
Cai Yong saw that there were two hundred archers waiting at the door, and the gate of the Hussar General's Mansion was closed.
"Please pass it on, just say that the old man has something important to discuss with the hussar general, and it is related to Ruyang Hou's net worth," Cai Yong said.
"Cai, everyone, please go back, the hussar general is not in the mansion, he has already entered the palace to see His Majesty"
The centurion saluted again.
"I'm tired of telling you, Cai Yan asks to see the county lord of Huanting," Cai Yan opened the curtain of the carriage and said.
The centurion was also surprised by Cai Yan's appearance, and then saluted and said.
"Miss Cai, wait a minute," the centurion finished speaking, waving his hand to signal a soldier to enter the mansion to report to the county lord of Wanting.
After a while, the soldier came back and said.
"Miss Cai, please, the county lord has an order, only Miss Cai is invited to enter"
Cai Yan glanced at his father, and his father pulled Cai Yan aside and said.
"After Yan'er enters, you must persuade Ruyang Hou, don't let him do stupid things" Cai Yan nodded and walked into the Hussar General's Mansion.
Walking into the mansion, Cai Yan saw a team of patrolling soldiers, and they all looked at Cai Yan with a wary face. Cai Yan lowered his head and followed the soldiers leading the way, turned around a few courtyards, and came to the backyard of the Hussar General's Mansion.
Lord Huanting stood alone in the middle of the courtyard, obviously waiting for Cai Yan's arrival.
"People's girl Cai Yan, I have seen the county lord of Huanting" Cai Yan walked in front of Dong Wan'er and saluted.
This time, Dong Wan'er didn't reach out to help Cai Yan, but just said a cold word.
"Miss Cai is here, why is it happening," Dong Wan'er said.
Seeing the county lord's attitude, Dong Wan'er's heart couldn't help but sink a little.
"The folk girl came here to see Ruyanghou's injuries," Cai Yan said with his head down.
"Ruyang Hou," said the county lord Wan Ting, sneering.
"I'm afraid it's your Cai family's Chenglong fast son-in-law," Dong Wan'er finished speaking, and looked at Cai Yan fixedly.
Cai Yan didn't know how to answer for a while, so he hesitated for a moment and said.
"Marriage is a major event, the parents' orders match the words of the concubine, and the people's daughters are also ......"
"Lord Xun is really a good gentleman," he laughed and said again.
"Ruyang Hou is inside, come in with me" After speaking, he took Cai Yan to the room.
Cai Yan took a closer look, this is a woman's boudoir, behind the hollow carved screen is a red curtain, in the curtain is a pear wood bed, the bed is hung with a thin curtain, through the thin curtain faintly visible a man lying on it, his eyes are closed, there is a long sword next to the pillow, the hilt is being held by the man in his hand, but the blood stains on the long sword have been wiped clean.
Dong Wan'er put Wang Gang on her bed and showed it to Cai Yan again, the meaning is already obvious, my dignified county lord, let you sleep on the bed as a man, spread it, how will you see people in the future.
Cai Yan's face also sank a little, knowing that he vaguely understood what the county lord meant, he slowly walked to the side of the bed, lifted the thin curtain and saw the face of the man on the bed.
Wang Gang's face was pale, his lips were already a little chapped, his brows were tight, as if he was babbling nonsense and like a whisper, Cai Yan couldn't hear clearly, so he leaned his ears closer to hear that he kept chanting a person's name, but his speech was not very clear, as if he was talking about Yan'er or Yue'er. Cai Yan's face couldn't help but be a little red, and he turned around a little embarrassed, glanced at Dong Wan'er, and spoke.
"The county lord has ...... Didn't ask a doctor to come."
"The imperial doctor in the palace has already come to see and prescribed some medicine, and his life is temporarily saved" Dong Wan'er finished speaking, and also walked to the bedside, reaching out and touching Wang Gang's forehead.
Cai Yan looked at a pair of snow-white jade hands, which fell on Wang Gang's forehead, and the brows that were still tight gradually relaxed, and he no longer murmured in his mouth, and fell asleep deeply.
Dong Wan'er glanced at Cai Yan and said.
"Miss Cai also saw it, Ruyang Hou is unconscious now, please go back"
Cai Yan can see that everything that the county lord of Huanting did was deliberately done to her, from him to the gate of the general's mansion, from the time his father was stopped by the soldiers, all of this was carefully calculated by the county lord in front of him.
"I heard that the county lord of Huanting is very smart before, and today I can be regarded as a teacher," Cai Yan said.
"I don't dare to be, but Miss Cai is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she is quite sought after by the sons of the family, and the Wei family in Hedong is a famous family" Dong Wan'er sneered.
"My father has already agreed to Lord Xun's proposal, and Ruyang Hou is my future husband" After Cai Yan finished speaking, she looked at the county lord Wan Ting, she wanted to see what else this county lord could say.
"You ......" Lord Ting was speechless for a while.
"The folk girl wants to bring the Marquis of Ruyang home, and ask the county lord of Huanting to fulfill it" After Cai Yan finished speaking, she bowed slightly and saluted Dong Wan'er. In any case, Dong Wan'er saved Wang Gang's life, and she must admit this favor.
"Bring it back to the Cai family, do you think the General's Mansion will give up easily, or do you think Tai Changqing can keep Ruyanghou" Dong Wan'er said coldly.
"Not to mention whether the Cai family is guaranteed or not, the Hussar General's Mansion will only make him more dangerous," Cai Yan said.
Dong Wan'er was stunned for a moment when she heard this, she didn't expect Cai Yan to dare to say this, and suddenly her voice was a little colder, and she said slowly.
"Then what if I don't let it go?"
"You ......" This time it was Cai Yan's turn to be speechless.
"The folk girl also stayed to take care of Ruyanghou," Cai Yan said.
"Whatever you want"
The confrontation between the two has come to an end for the time being, and the confrontation in the Chongzheng Hall has just begun.
In the main hall, there stood the general He Miao, the prince and the prince Wang Yun, the great Si Nong Liu Kuan, the emperor Liu Hong sat on the dragon chair, and stood next to the regular attendant Zhang Rang.
Liu Hong looked at He Miao with angry eyes and said coldly.
"Do you have a royal law in the He family, and do you have an emperor like me?"
He Miao was so frightened that he knelt on the ground.
"Your Majesty's forgiveness is the hand of Ruyang Hou who moves first"
"Why did Ruyang Hou want to kill the people of the He family, you tell me the truth," Liu Hong patted the dragon chair and said.
"Yes...... Be.. The general wanted to invite Ruyang Hou to the mansion to talk, but Ruyang Hou refused, so he killed the soldiers," He Miao said tremblingly.
"It's nonsense, it's obvious that it was the people in your general's mansion who stopped Ru Yanghou and didn't let him go, and Ru Yanghou was forced to kill people with his sword in desperation," Liu Kuan also knelt down and said.
"He Miao, what else do you have to say" Liu Hong looked at He Miao coldly and said.
"Your Majesty is angry, it's really Ruyang Hou who drew his sword and killed people without saying a word, and the last general just wanted to bring him to Tingwei, and didn't want to kill him" He Miao also felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly spoke.
"Ruyang Hou is a Wei Wei, you are Jiuqing, what right does the general of the chariot cavalry have to arrest Ruyang Hou," Wang Yun said faintly beside him.
"Come on, take He Miao into custody temporarily, and wait for Tingwei to thoroughly investigate this matter" Liu Hong said with a wave of his hand, and the resentment that had accumulated for many years came out, which was really happy.
At this moment, a eunuch hurriedly ran over and whispered a few words in Zhang Rang's ear, Zhang Rang's face changed greatly after hearing this, and he motioned to Yu Linwei to escort He Miao down.
He Miao's shouting and screaming gradually disappeared outside the main hall, and Zhang Rangcai said in a low voice.
