Section 183: Chenliu worshipping ancestors

The six wedding ceremony has been completed, and the next thing Cai Yan should be visiting Guan Yan’s parents and other elders. However, Guan Yan was alone, his parents died early, and he had no relatives and elders. This matter was naturally decided by his master Huangfu Song.

After Guan Yan and Cai Yan finished the tea, Huangfu Song said with a smile: "Now that Wende has become a family, I am very happy! But I am your master after all. Although your parents have passed away, you still need to pay tribute and inform me!"

Guan Yan nodded: "What the teacher said is very much, but the Guan clan is in Qingzhou, and it is still more than a month away. Now the court is unstable. If you leave at this time, your disciple may have trouble!"

Huangfu Song thought for a moment and pondered: "Wen De's concerns are also reasonable. Since he is in a high position, he should take national affairs first! When the court stabilizes, it will not be too late for Wen De to go again! Okay, take Zhaoji to pay homage to Mr. Cai. I guess Old Man Cai is going to be anxious, haha!"

Guan Yan smiled: "That disciple will take his leave first!"

Cai Yan bowed to Huangfu Song and retreated to Guan Yan.

"This kid, I gave him my daughter. I haven't come to pay my respects yet. I'm such a jealous wolf!" Cai Yong was walking back and forth in the hall, muttering nonstop, his white beard was so angry that he was raising his gaze.

The old official Cai Fu stepped forward to smooth things over and said, "My son-in-law just got married to the lady, so it's understandable that it will be late today. Besides, it's rainy outside, so it may be delayed if the journey is delayed!"

Cai Yong snorted, and was about to continue to scold Guan Yan, when a shout came from outside the door: "Master, Dongxiang Hou Guan Yan and Miss asked for a meeting!"

If Cai Yan was usually not required to report when she went home, but in this era, her married daughter was the man's family. Although she was going back to her parents' home, she had to treat her as a guest.

When Cai Yong heard this, a trace of joy flashed in his eyes, but then he put down his face again, turned around and sat upright in the main seat, and said in a deep voice: "Please come in!"

After a while, Guan Yan took Cai Yan in and walked in. When he saw Cai Yong, Guan Yan fell down and bowed: "Son-in-law, please see your father-in-law!"

Cai Yan also bowed and said, "Greetings to Dad!"

Cai Yong coughed and said unhappy: "Wende, I'm just about to go out, you're here!"

"Go out?" Guan Yan turned to look at the weather outside and replied in confusion: "Where is my father-in-law going?"

"The mansion is empty and I'm about to go out for a walk and relax!"

Listening to his tone, Guan Yan understood that Cai Yong thought he was too late, and his father-in-law had a really bad temper!

Guan Yan hurriedly explained: "The son-in-law is late, please ask the father-in-law to atone for his sins!"

Cai Yong stood up and paced back and forth, as if he was thinking about something in his heart.

"Get up and sit down."

Guan Yanru was about to be amnesty and helped Cai Yan stand up and stand aside.

Cai Yong's face became a little better and he said slowly: "Zhao Ji is married, and I, Cai Yong, only this daughter. The day after tomorrow, I will go back to my hometown Chenliu to worship the ancestors of the Cai family. Will you both go?"

Guan Yan hesitated about this issue. In order to stabilize the situation in the court, Guan Yan did not even dare to go back to the Guan clan in Qingzhou. Although Chenliu was close to him, it only took a few days, but he still couldn't feel at ease!

Looking at Guan Yan's hesitant face, Cai Yong stretched his face again: "Why, don't you want to go?"

The father-in-law put his face down again, Guan Yan hurriedly replied: "Father-in-law, it's not that the son-in-law doesn't want it, but that the court is unstable, and I'm afraid that Dong Zhuo..."

I have to say that although Cai Yong is extremely literary, his political vision is still a bit short-sighted. When he heard Guan Yan’s worries, Cai Yong slapped his legs and said anxiously: “Then Dong Zhuo gave gold and silver yesterday to show his friendship, not to mention that the back and forth lasted only a few dozen days, what’s the point?”

As the saying goes, the father-in-law looks at his son-in-law, and the more he looks, the more annoyed he feels. He raised such a big daughter and gave it to Guan Yan all at once. Although he was not malicious, Cai Yong was still full of anger. If the two sides are disagreeing because of this, it would be really not worth the loss!

Guan Yan weighed the matter and went there alone and left all the generals, dragon and tiger, and cavalry in Luoyang, it should be fine within ten days. Thinking of this, Guan Yan gritted his teeth and replied: "Okay, the day after tomorrow, the son-in-law will take Zhaoji and his father-in-law with him!"

Cai Yong then laughed: "Okay, okay, then that's it!"

After Guan Yan returned home, he urgently summoned Xi Zhicai, and Ju Su and the other two gathered to have a secret talk with the room.

When Guan Yan told the story of today, Ju Su replied quickly: "Lord, it is inappropriate to leave Beijing at this time! The court has not decided, and Dong Zhuo is eyeing him. Although Dong Zhuo showed good deeds yesterday, he must be careful of others. This matter will not be determined for a day. Please think twice!"

Guan Yan sighed: "I don't know, but you also know Mr. Cai's temper. If this matter does not go along with him, I will be uneasy for a day!"

Xi Zhicai was quite familiar with the worldly style. After thinking about it, he spoke, "What the lord said makes sense. Mr. Cai is tough. If he doesn't follow this matter, he may have a bad relationship! Besides, it's only been ten days since he went to Chenliu. We will be more vigilant and I'm fine! Gong, do you think so?"

Ju Su thought about it and said helplessly: "That's all, lord will go early and come back soon!"

"This is natural, natural!"

The three of them discussed the details again and then they dispersed.

Guan Yan's mansion was closely aligned, and there was no idle in another mansion in Luoyang.

In the evening, in the study in Dong Zhuo's mansion, Dong Zhuo laughed out loud after listening to the secret report from his confidant.

Li Ru, who was standing beside him, looked up at Dong Zhuo when he saw this: "Why are your father-in-law so happy?"

Dong Zhuo patted his belly, which was gradually getting better and said, "Wenzheng, according to the eyeliner, Guan Yan will follow Cai Yong to Chenliu to worship the ancestors of the Cai family in the future!"

Li Ru was overjoyed and said, "This is a God-given opportunity!"

Dong Zhuo nodded, his eyes also became deeper: "Getting big things up, just waiting for this moment!"

Early in the morning of the third day, Guan Yan was afraid that Cai Yong would become angry again, so he and Cai Yan got up early at the fourth update. After they packed up, they went to Cai Yong's mansion.

At the fourth update, when the sun was about to rise, Luoyang City was still covered with a layer of dim gauze.

When we arrived in front of Cai Fu's gate, the courtyard was bustling and bustling, and it was very lively. All the servants were busy carrying a volume of bamboo slips.

Cai Fu, the old butler who was commanding the commander, saw Guan Yan coming, and hurriedly greeted him and said, "Son-in-law is here!"

After talking about peace, Cai Fu bowed to Cai Yan on the side.

Guan Yan looked at the abortion of people coming and going, and asked, "Brother Cai, what is this for?"

Cai Fu replied: "The master is fond of books as he lives. No matter where he goes, he will bring the book script with him and you can read it at any time!"

"Take so many with you?" Guan Yan was shocked.

"Yes, bring them all!"

At this time, Cai Yong was walking out of the living room and walked towards Guan Yan with a smile: "Wen De, Zhao Ji is here!"

Guan Yan hurriedly saluted and said, "Father-in-law!"

Cai Yong nodded: "It's almost done, let's go and get out!"
