Three Kingdoms King of the North

"Damn it, what the hell is going on? Why is there no news at all until now, where did Feng Ji go?" Han Zhan got up and kicked over the table in front of him, hands behind his back. Walking back and forth in the chamber.

Chen Dao hurriedly asked someone to straighten the table, and put the things that fell on the ground back on the table one by one.After finishing all this, he waved his servants to leave, and then stood aside with his head bowed, waiting for Han Zhan's order.

Guo Jia swaggered in from the outside, saw Han Zhan running away, quickly pulled Chen Dao aside, and asked in a low voice, "Uncle Zhi, what happened? My lord seems a little unhappy. "

"What else can happen?" Chen looked at Han Zhan, who was walking back and forth in the court hall, and then replied to Guo Jia, "The various people sent outside to set up checkpoints have not sent back any news for three consecutive days. , My lord is inevitably a little anxious."

"Yeah, it's been three days." Guo Jia nodded and said, "There is still no news. It's okay if Feng Ji hasn't reached the place where we set up the checkpoint. If he sneaks around our checkpoint , then it will be more difficult than reaching the sky to rescue Miss Cai."

When Chen Dao heard what Guo Jia said, the muscles on his face couldn't help twitching violently, and then he asked, "Mr. Yet?"

"This possibility is not ruled out." Guo Jia nodded, and said in an uncertain tone: "Actually, we just don't know whether Fengji has passed the checkpoint. It is hundreds of miles away from here to Bohai County. We won’t be able to get there in a while. If we can grasp his whereabouts, we can use him at the right place.”

Before Guo Jia finished speaking, a messenger rushed in from the outside in a hurry.He still shouted excitedly: "My lord, Captain Xiahou's letter, he has rescued Miss Cai."

"What, Miss Cai has been rescued?!" Hearing the messenger's shout, several people in the conference hall were stunned.

Chen Dao was the first to react. He stepped forward and grabbed the messenger, impatiently asking: "What did you just say, repeat it again."

Seeing Chen Dao's fierce look, the messenger was startled.But he still said tremblingly: "If you go back to the general, Captain Xiahou sent me to deliver a letter to the lord, saying that he has rescued Miss Cai."

"Where is the letter?" Guo Jia also rushed over at this moment, stretched out his hand in front of the messenger, and said hurriedly: "Hurry up and hand over the letter to me."

As soon as Guo Jia took the letter from the messenger, before he could read it, he hurriedly came to Han Zhan, handed the letter over, and said at the same time: "Congratulations, lord, congratulations, lord, Miss Cai has finally disappeared. This is a letter sent by Captain Xiahou, please read it, my lord."

Don't look at Han Zhan's anxious look when Cai Yan is not there.But at this moment when Guo Jia handed him the letter related to Cai Yan, he was a little timid.He stretched out his hand, then immediately said back, and finally said with a guilty conscience: "Feng Xiao, you should read it to Ben Hou."

Guo Jia took out the letterhead from the envelope and opened it. Seeing the small and juicy characters on it, he immediately recognized that it was written by Cai Yan.Then he asked Han Zhan cautiously: "My lord, this letter was written by Ms. Cai herself. Do you want my subordinates to continue to read it?"

"Read it, read it!" Han Zhan waved at Guo Jia and urged, "Let me listen to Zhaoji's letter and what it said."

In Cai Yan's letter, he briefly introduced how he was kidnapped, and finally pleaded with Han Zhan, saying that the Huang family brothers were bewitched by Feng Ji and did something wrong.I hope Han Zhan can forgive me and not punish the Huang family brothers severely.

When Guo Jia was reading the letter, he naturally skipped Cai Yan's words expressing his personal affection to Han Zhan, and only picked out the content of being detained and kidnapped, and read it to Han Zhan.

After Han Zhan heard this, he slapped the table angrily, and said angrily: "Damn it, this dog thief is really hateful. After Xia Houlan escorts him back to Yecheng, I will definitely smash him to pieces." Thousands of corpses, to vent the anger in my heart."

As soon as Han Zhan looked up, he saw the messenger still standing at the door of the meeting hall, so he waved to him and asked him to come forward to answer.After the messenger came to him, Han Zhan said to him with a smile: "Brother, since Captain Xiahou sent you to deliver the letter, you must also be an eloquent person. How about it, tell us, How Captain Xiahou captured Fengji and rescued Miss Cai. If the story is good, I will definitely reward you a lot."

The messenger was a little nervous at first, but when he saw that Han Zhan was easy-going and even called himself a brother, he calmed down a lot.He coughed, cleared his throat, and began to describe the whole process of arresting Fengji.Although it was unremarkable at this time, it was extremely thrilling when he said it out of his mouth, which made Han Zhan and others listen with gusto.

After the messenger had finished speaking, Han Zhan said to Chen Dao: "Uncle Zhi, this messenger is rewarded with ten thousand dollars for his meritorious service in delivering the letter. Take him down to receive the reward!"

The messenger thought that Han Zhan was happy for a while after he told the story of arresting Fengji, and at best rewarded himself with three melons and two dates, but he didn't expect him to be so generous. Shane: "Thank you, my lord, thank you, my lord!"

"Okay, you go down first." Han Zhan waved at the other party: "Follow General Shuzhi to receive the reward."

After Chen Dao and the messenger left, Guo Jia said to Han Zhan, "My lord, since Miss Cai has been rescued, can all the checkpoints we set up outside the city be withdrawn?"

"Leave, let's all withdraw." Han Zhan felt a little bit unbearable when he thought of letting thousands of officers and soldiers starve and freeze in the wilderness for his own selfishness, and added: "Ben Hou Nian soldiers are on duty outside. For your hard work, everyone will be rewarded with a thousand dollars."

After Guo Jia recorded Han Zhan's order, he immediately sent people to checkpoints, and then he asked Han Zhan, "My lord, what do you plan to do with Fengji?"

"Fengji dog thief," Han Zhan thought, if Fengji hadn't instigated Yuan Shao to seize Jizhou, he might still be a carefree son of an official, living a good life every day, eating and drinking enough, So he took a group of servants and evil servants to the street to moles the girls from good families.Therefore, when he heard Guo Jia's question, he gritted his teeth and said, "Because of him, my father not only lost Jizhou's foundation, but even took his own life. Now he kidnapped Zhaoji even more frantically. Benhou is no matter what. He will not be allowed to live in this world again."

In Guo Jia's mind, he also advocates severe punishment of Fengji, which can have the effect of killing chickens and monkeys, so that the surrounding princes can also see Han Zhan's iron-blooded side, so as not to use their brains, so that they will not seize the surrounding states and counties. It is also very helpful.

"Feng Xiao," Han Zhan clarified his attitude towards Feng Ji, and then discussed with Guo Jia with some uncertainty in his heart: "According to what Zhao Ji said in the letter, it will take two days at the earliest for them to return to Yecheng." .Look, can you stay in the city and temporarily take charge of all the affairs in the city?"

"My lord!" Hearing what Han Zhan said, Guo Jia immediately guessed that he definitely wanted to take someone to meet Cai Yan himself, so he tentatively asked, "I want to ask, how many soldiers and horses do you plan to bring out of the city?" How about going to meet Miss Cai?"

Seeing that Guo Jia guessed his thoughts, Han Zhan grinned a little embarrassedly, and then said, "I plan to take Zilong, Han Sheng and five thousand soldiers to meet Zhaoji."

Guo Jia was worried that Han Zhan would take the car lightly, so he took a few people to meet Cai Yan.But at this moment, I heard that he planned to bring both Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong with him, as well as [-] soldiers and horses. With this lineup, let alone encountering some bandits, even tens of thousands of troops can easily escape danger.So he immediately nodded and said: "Since the lord has considered it so carefully, then this subordinate will temporarily take over all affairs while the lord is not in Yecheng."

Han Zhan got up and was about to go to the backyard, but stopped after taking two steps.He raised his hand and slapped himself on the forehead, and said shyly, "Feng Xiao, look at me because I am too impatient. Now that Zilong and Han Sheng are still leading the army, even if we send someone to recruit them immediately, At least we have to wait until evening to return to Yecheng."

"My lord, from my subordinate's point of view, it's better to leave for the west tomorrow morning." Guo Jia said with a smile: "If all goes well, the lord will be able to see Miss Cai by tomorrow evening at the latest."

In the early morning of the next day, Han Zhan, Zhao Yun, and Huang Zhong left Yecheng with [-] cavalry and headed west.Although Han Zhan couldn't wait to see Cai Yan in his heart, he didn't let the soldiers rush westward, but walked slowly according to the daily marching speed.The messenger sent by Xia Houlan acted as a guide and followed Han Zhan all the time.

Every ten miles or so, Han Zhan would ask the messenger, "Brother, is the road we are on the right track?"

The messenger was very excited when he heard Han Zhan calling him brother one by one.But he still tried his best to control his emotions, and replied respectfully: "My lord, yes, it is indeed this way."

After noon, Zhao Yun came to Han Zhan's side and said to him, "Second brother, the soldiers and horses have been walking for a long time, do you think they should get off their horses and rest for a while before leaving?"

Han Zhan turned his head and looked back. Although none of the soldiers spoke, they could still see the tiredness on their faces.Han Zhan thought that these soldiers and horses had been set up outside for three days, and after being recalled urgently by himself, they set off again before they had time to rest.Thinking of this, he nodded at Zhao Yun, and said, "Just according to what the eldest brother said, rest here for half an hour, and then it won't be too late to continue on the road."

In Guo Jia's mind, he also advocates severe punishment of Fengji, which can have the effect of killing chickens and monkeys, so that the surrounding princes can also see Han Zhan's iron-blooded side, so as not to use their brains, so that they will not seize the surrounding states and counties. It is also very helpful.

Chapter 255 Brotherly Love

Seeing that Cai Yan had been in a daze, Han Zhan quickly climbed into the carriage with hands and feet, helped her to sit in the carriage again, and asked jokingly, "What's the matter, Zhaoji, I haven't seen you for a few months, so you forget me Who is it?"

"Tinghou, it's really you." Cai Yan put her finger into her mouth and bit it hard. The pain from her fingertip made her understand that she was not dreaming, and everything that happened in front of her was real. of.She quickly hugged Han Zhan, and said excitedly: "Since I was kidnapped by Fengji dog thief, I thought I would never see Tinghou again in this life. Fortunately, God has eyes, so that I can meet Tinghou again."

Han Zhan held Cai Yan in his arms, patted her on the back lightly, comforted her and said, "Okay, Zhao Ji, everything is over. I assure you, I will never put you in danger again among."

After saying these words, Han Zhan suddenly remembered the Huang family brother mentioned in Cai Yan's letter, and quickly asked, "Where is the Huang family brother?"

Hearing Han Zhan's question, Cai Yan's heart skipped a beat, and he asked cautiously, "Tinghou, are you planning to execute the Huang family brothers here?"

Although Han Zhan knew in his heart that the Huang family brothers were instigated by Feng Ji, the anger in his heart could not be calmed down. Hearing Cai Yan's question now, he asked coldly: "Zhao Ji thinks that the two of them should not die." ?"

"My concubine thinks that although they are hateful, they are not guilty of death." Cai Yan couldn't guess what Han Zhan was thinking, so he could only tentatively say: "The two are young and have been instigated by Fengji, so they will take someone hostage I am a concubine. Please also invite Lord Tinghou to make a large number of them and bypass the two of them."
