Fan A nodded and said to Diao Chan: "Madam, please stretch out your wrist!"

Seeing that Zhang Yan's face was cold and seemed to be angry, Diao Chan frowned, and her heart was even more up and down. She stretched out her wrist and let Fan A stretch out her fingers to put her pulse on his wrist.

After a while, Fan A let go of Diao Chan's wrist, said nothing, but just shook his head at Zhang Yan.

Seeing this, Zhang Yan stretched his brows, but the questions in his heart were also solved today.

So, Zhang Yan said to Diao Chan: "You are not seriously injured. I asked the maid who serves you. I know that you have been drinking red flowers all the time. Your health is not seriously damaged. Why should you keep drinking red flowers?"

When things got to this point, Diao Chan no longer concealed it. It seemed that her actions could not be hidden from Zhang Yan's eyes. Otherwise, why would she call the imperial physician Fan A over?

Diao Chan sighed heavily and said with a little frustrated expression: "General, I have been drinking red flowers for a long time, and there is no reason for this."

"I'll listen carefully!"

"The general is a body of gold, Diao Chan is just a concubine. She is satisfied that she can serve the general in this life, and no one dares to have any extravagant hopes. So, for so long, I have been taking red flowers, so that I can avoid getting pregnant."

After hearing Diao Chan's answer, Zhang Yan was a little surprised and asked, "Don't you want to get pregnant? Why? Don't you want a child of your own?"

Diao Chan said, "If I were the wife and concubine of the general who was married to the general, maybe I would have given birth to a child for the general, but I was just a lowly concubine, and I was beaten by Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu one after another. When Lu Bu died, I wanted to die, but I didn't expect to meet a general. I have a low status and I am not worthy of giving birth to children for the general. I just want to be satisfied with being by the general. I have nothing to ask for anything else. Besides, the general is now a high-ranking official in the court, above ten thousand people. I am such a lowly woman. If I really give birth to children for the general, then my children are also a lowly status. It is better not to give birth to them than to be rolled down by others."

After listening to Diao Chan's words, Zhang Yan felt very uncomfortable. He didn't care whether Diao Chan was perfect. Since he got Diao Chan, Diao Chan has been very well-behaved and served him with all his heart and strength. Apart from that, he never cared about anything. It is precisely because of this that he likes to come to Diao Chan to relax and watch him sing and dancing to relieve his pressure in the court.

After all, his soul belongs to modern people, and his thoughts are open. As long as they are in love with each other, no matter what secular etiquette he is.

However, as he became more and more in ancient times, his sense of superiority became less and less. Some of his actions and actions were incompatible with this era. The strict hierarchy and secular etiquette of feudal society were all like mountains, pressing heavily on Zhang Yan.

Once upon a time, Zhang Yan gathered his confidants to discuss the matter of marrying Diao Chan as his concubine, hoping to give Diao Chan a title. However, they were unanimously opposed by everyone. Everyone believed that doing so would damage Zhang Yan's reputation. After all, Diao Chan had served Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu one after another, and she had a bad background, so she was not enough to serve as Zhang Yan's concubine.

So Zhang Yan had no choice but to give up and kept Diao Chan in this house and acted as his singer.

Diao Chan's words pierced Zhang Yan's heart like a needle, but this is the secular world of this era, and Diao Chan is also a person of this era. He knew that he could not get any title, so he simply stopped asking for anything and just served Zhang Yan wholeheartedly.

From this point of view, Diao Chan is smart, and it is also a wise move for her to choose not to have a child.

Zhang Yan didn't say anything else, turned around and left. Before leaving, he said to Diao Chan: "Don't drink medicine casually in the future..."

After saying this, Zhang Yan left. Fan A immediately said goodbye to Diao Chan and left immediately after Zhang Yan.

Diao Chan looked at Zhang Yan's back as she was gone, and for some reason, she felt empty. Although she also liked the feeling of being with Zhang Yan, Zhang Yan was not an ordinary family after all. As she grew older, she yearned for an ordinary life, finding an ordinary man to marry and live a carefree life. How great it would be.

Zhang Yan left Diao Chan's mansion, and he knew what Diao Chan wanted, freedom and the life of ordinary people.

Since the moment he got Diao Chan, Diao Chan revealed his thoughts to him, but at that time Zhang Yan was fascinated by beauty and was unwilling to let Diao Chan go easily, so he took him back to Pengcheng.

Who knew that until now, Diao Chan's thoughts have not changed, and she still used this method to fight pregnancy.

Gradually, Zhang Yan seemed to understand that although Diao Chan's body was here, she was not here in her heart.

Originally, Zhang Yan thought that Diao Chan would fall in love with him for so long, but he was wrong. Diao Chan, who had experienced so many things, no one loved her. Perhaps, the moment she decided to disagree with Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu, her heart was already dead. Now she is just a walking corpse without a soul.

The person who kept her could not keep her heart, and Zhang Yan felt extremely uncomfortable.

Finally, he made a decision to let Diao Chan leave, let her return to her own, give her some money, and let him live the life that ordinary people should live, and then end his life!

The next day, Zhang Yan sent someone to Diao Chan's mansion, took Diao Chan out, and gave her a lot of money.

However, Diao Chan refused the money given by Zhang Yan, and only brought some clothes, left Pengcheng alone, without someone escorting her. No one knew where she was going.

Zhang Yan did not go to see Diao Chan, because he was afraid that when he saw Diao Chan again, he would not let Diao Chan go so generously and would become attached to him again.

During the following day, Zhang Yan was depressed and had no energy in doing anything. On the third day after Diao Chan left, he regretted that he let Diao Chan go.

Sili's captain Jia Xu figured out Zhang Yan's heart and knew that Zhang Yan was worried about Diao Chan's departure. Although Diao Chan, who was unparalleled in beauty, had to make up for Zhang Yan's inner shortcomings, he could only use beautiful women who were so beautiful in the world.

So, Jia Xu discussed with other Zhang Yan's confidants and decided to select beautiful women for Zhang Yan in private.

Of course, this matter was carried out quietly, with Xu Sheng, the commander of the city gate, General Zhenwei, and the commander of the Jinyiwei, and Zhang Yan had no idea about the situation at all.

Moreover, in order not to cause trouble, this beauty pageant mission was also carried out quietly. The Jinyiwei first looked for beautiful women in the area under Zhang Yan's jurisdiction, and then Jia Xu personally checked them out, first after layers of screening, and finally sent them to Pengcheng for re-examination. Thus, the peerless beauty who was not one of them was selected and sent to Zhang Yan's mansion.

For half a month, Zhang Yan was depressed. He also sent the Jinyiwei to investigate the news about Diao Chan secretly, but Diao Chan was like a rock sinking into the sea and there was no news again.

During Zhang Yan's dull day, Zhao Yun was taking a boat and following the fleet carrying horses to Xuzhou. After Li Cai's recommendation, he was taken to the mansion by Mi Zhu, the prefect of Donghai County, and then took Zhao Yun all the way to Pengcheng via Mi Zhu.

On this occasion, Zhang Yan was practicing riding and shooting on the school ground. Suddenly, a Jinyiwei ran over and saw Zhang Yan, and he clasped his fists and said, "Report to the lord, the prefect of Donghai County, Mi Zhu, is asking for a meeting in the general's mansion."

Zhang Yanle held the horse and put down the bow and arrow in his hand. Mi Zhu was his brother-in-law. This time he came here in person, there must be something important, so without saying a word, he immediately rode a dark cloud on the snow horse and rode out of the schoolyard and headed straight to the general's mansion.

Back at the General's Mansion, Zhang Yan turned over and jumped off the horse and went straight to the hall of the mansion. He suddenly saw Mi Zhu sitting there with a handsome man. He vaguely felt that the handsome guy looked familiar, and a familiar name suddenly flashed in his mind. He immediately said, "Isn't this Zhao Yun?"

Zhang Yan quickly walked into the hall of the mansion. When Mi Zhu and Zhao Yun saw it, they immediately stood up and bowed in unison: "See General!"

"No gifts!" Zhang Yan looked at Zhao Yun first, and then said happily, "Isn't this General Zhao? I've been together for two years, and I don't want us to meet again!"

Zhao Yun said in surprise: "The General said that he could still remember the truth?"

"What did General Zhao say? How could I not remember General Zhao? By the way, General Zhao, how could you come with my elder brother?"

Along the way, Zhao Yun had already inquired about it. Mi Zhu was Zhang Yan's brother-in-law, so he didn't find it strange when he heard Zhang Yan say the word "Brother".

Mi Zhu immediately told all the ins and outs of how Zhao Yun came to Tancheng.

After hearing this, Zhang Yan said, "This Li Cai really did a big thing for me. After coming back, he must give me a lot of rewards."

After saying this, Zhang Yan turned his head to Zhao Yun and said, "So, General Zhao is willing to surrender to my account and serve me?"

Zhao Yun immediately clasped his fists and said, "If General Meng refused to abandon him, Zhao Yun was willing to do whatever he wanted. However, Zhao Yun had a heartless request, and he didn't know whether to say it or not..."

"Tell me."

Zhao Yun said: "If the general attacks Yuan Shao in the future, no one can kill Yuan Shao except I think. I will kill Yuan Shao and avenge General Gongsun!"

Zhang Yan smiled and said, "What's the difficulty? I'll just promise you."

"Then I have no requirements. From then on, I, Zhao Yun, swear to follow the general to the death and never deviate from this life." Zhao Yun clasped his fists and said.

Zhang Yan said happily: "Okay, General Zhao is here to surrender, and another tiger general is added to our army."

Afterwards, Zhang Yan held a banquet to entertain Zhao Yun and Mi Zhu. During the meal, Zhao Yun urged Zhang Yan to send troops to attack Yuan Shao. Zhang Yan told Zhao Yun not to worry. When he recovered his energy, he would lead his troops north and fight to the death with Yuan Shao.

Afterwards, Zhang Yan asked the emperor to grant Zhao Yun the title of General Huwei. In this way, together with General Huya Zhang Liao, General Huyi Xu Huang, General Huliu Lie Taishici and General Huben Xu Chu, there were exactly five generals who started with the word "Tiger". From then on, the five generals in the army were called the Five Tiger Generals.

Zhang Yan asked the guards' army temporarily led by the Sili Captain Jia Xu to allocate all the guards to Zhao Yun, and asked him to subordinate him to Zhao Yun, and rewarded the house where Diao Chan originally lived to Zhao Yun.
