Chapter 261: Thirsty for Talent
Chen Yan listened to Cai Yan's urging words, his heart was also sweet, he looked into the distance, and muttered slightly: "In this era, you can only choose one word for a child's name......
"This era?" Cai Yan was a little puzzled, "What is this era?" It's as if you're not from the same age as me. ”
Chen Yan hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, no, I said it wrong, I said it wrong, don't care, I want to give the child a three-word name, okay?" ”
Cai Yan frowned slightly, it is true that in this era, three-character names are not as common as two-word names, and they will be a symbol of humble status, but Cai Yan saw that Chen Yan was so persistent, and it was difficult to dispel his thoughts, so he nodded reluctantly and said, "It's all up to Junlang." ”
Seeing that Cai Yan was so considerate, Chen Yan smiled slightly, hugged her into his arms, and said, "Wait for this child to be born, and see if it is a man or a woman!" ”
Cai Yan smiled sweetly and said no more.
……
It took a lot of time to settle the people, and by the time these people had really settled in Luoyang City, autumn was gradually approaching.
On this day, Chen Yan was sitting in the hall flipping through books, and suddenly Guo Jia came in quickly and said, "Lord, there is strange news!" ”
Before the words fell, Guo Jia saw that Chen Yan was struggling to flip a roll of bamboo slips, and immediately took three steps and two steps up and asked, "What is the lord looking at again?" ”
Chen Yan saw his background, and was so frightened by Guo Jia, he sat up suddenly, and threw the bamboo slip in his hand!
"Bong-hyo! How did it suddenly pop up! ”
Guo Jia hurriedly picked up the bamboo slip, looked at it over and over again, and said, "Sima Law"? Lord, this is the legendary Sima Suihe's military book, you actually found such a treasure, I only saw the remnants in the ghost valley at the beginning, where did the lord come from? ”
Chen Yan hurriedly whispered, "Shhh I stole it from Mr. Jia Xu...... No, borrowed! Let's see if it's broken? ”
Guo Jia hurriedly checked it repeatedly, and it didn't seem to be damaged, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's okay, it's okay, don't worry." ”
Chen Yan sighed and said: "Alas, this thing is so condescending, I really can't understand it, quick, Fengxiao, tell me about it!" ”
Chen Yan crossed back, although he barely knew Xiao Seal and Lishu, but after all, he had just learned it, and it was very laborious to read. Lishu is okay, Xiao Zhan can't read a few words at all. This "Sima Law" should have been copied in the early years of the Han Dynasty, and the characters used were still small seals, which made Chen Yan even more blind.
Guo Jia looked at "Sima Fa" and muttered in a low voice: "This book has been around for many years, I'm afraid it is at least hundreds of years old, but I didn't expect Mr. Jia Xu to have such a collection of books." ”
Chen Yan smiled slightly, seemed to be very cunning, and said: "There are a lot of treasures in Mr. Jia Xu's family, he has gone to the Tiger Prison in the past few days, our brothers can go and open their eyes!" ”
Guo Jia knew that Chen Yan and Jia Xu were familiar with each other, so he was informal, but he didn't have such a deep friendship with Jia Xu, so he waved his hand and said that he would forget it.
The two of them talked for a long time, and Guo Jia remembered that he came to find Chen Yan because there was something, thinking of this, Guo Jia said: "Lord, the Cao army in Wancheng suddenly withdrew!" ”
When Chen Yan heard this, his brows tightened, and he said, "When did it happen?" ”
Guo Jia said: "Seven days ago. Although Wancheng was almost destroyed by us, it is also a big city after all, and although it costs money to rebuild, it can't be easily given up. ”
Chen Yan thought in his heart: "Could it be that Cao Cao's father has died on the outskirts of Xuzhou?" Tao Qian, good job! ”
Guo Jia looked at Chen Yan as if he was thoughtful, and immediately asked, "Why, lord, have you thought of anything?" ”
Chen Yan said resolutely: "Send someone to investigate, within a few days, Cao Cao's army will definitely move eastward!" It's time for revenge! ”
Guo Jia was confused, but he couldn't disobey, and immediately called the scouts and asked them to go east out of the Tiger Prison Pass to visit.
However, Chen Yan thought of Cao Cao's fierce generals, not only generals such as Xiahou and Cao Ren who could take charge alone, but also a terrifying warrior like Dian Wei, the last battle of Wancheng, Dian Wei alone tore apart Chen Yan's entire army, which shows how important the level of personal force is in this era of cold weapons!
Thinking of this, Chen Yan's brows furrowed tightly, "Dian Wei, Dian Wei, Dian Wei, Dian Wei...... Alas, where can I find such a guy who can compete with Dian Wei...... When the time comes, Cao Cao will get Xu Chu again...... Xu Chu!! ”
Chen Yan jumped up from his chair and shouted, "How did I forget him!" Fengxiao, Fengxiao, come quickly! ”
Guo Jia was still over there telling the scouts to be careful, and suddenly heard Chen Yan calling for his life, so he hurriedly turned around and asked, "Lord, what's wrong?" ”
Chen Yan said: "Let's go to Luoyang County, how far is it?" ”
Guo Jia didn't expect Chen Yan to suddenly ask this, could it be because Cao Cao's ancestral home is here? Immediately stared at Chen Yan and asked puzzledly, "Lord...... Do you want to go to Cao Cao's hometown? ”
Chen Yan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood that Cao Cao and Dian Wei were both from Qian County, no wonder Xu Chu was so loyal to Cao Cao, but since Xu Chu had not returned to Cao Cao at this time, there was a play, and immediately said: "It's not to find Cao Cao, it's to find a master, how far is it, tell me quickly." ”
Guo Jia rolled his eyes, thought for a moment, and said: "If we go from Xucheng, the distance is about six hundred miles, and the fast horse gallops, it should be five or six days." ”
"Xu Cheng? Isn't that Cao Cao's territory? Chen Yan frowned, and his heart was cold, Cao Cao's guy is very dangerous, if Chen Yan is for Xu Chu, it is really a risky move to pass through Cao Cao's territory.
"This is really the higher the return, the greater the risk!" Chen Yan sighed sincerely.
Guo Jia also had a sad face, completely unaware of what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of the lord in front of him, and asked, "Lord, don't you really want to go to Qian County, right?" ”
Chen Yan nodded again and again and said, "I really want to go!" It's just that this line is really dangerous, but it's a headache. ”
Guo Jia hurriedly tugged on Chen Yan's sleeve and said, "Lord, this route is so dangerous, it's like a sheep in the mouth of a tiger!" Cao Cao's territory is full of eyeliner, we don't know if there is Cao Cao's fine work in Luoyang City, in case you go and are discovered by him, then there is really no return! ”
"Bah, bah," Chen Yan waved his hand and said, "Why haven't you acted yet, you have said frustrating words first, I want to think about whether to go or not." After saying that, Chen Yan fell into the chair, his brows furrowed, and he pondered bitterly.
Guo Jia is usually calm, but now he has become an ant on a hot pot, Chen Yan's idea is really crazy, not to mention that Guo Jia doesn't know what kind of master is worthy of Chen Yan in Qian County, even if Qian County lives in the king of heaven, Chen Yan can't be so risky!
