It was late at night, and he was leaning on the bed. The beautiful woman beside him had already fallen asleep soundly, but Chen Mo couldn't sleep. He was thinking about what happened in the court during the day.

The large network rewoven by scholars headed by Wang Yun isolated themselves. Under the influence of these people, Dong Zhuo had no intention of reusing himself.

Although Chen Mo wanted to be loyal to the country, he tried for a long time but could not get back in. Alternatively, like Brother Meng De, he could take the initiative to be used by others in exchange for the readmission and trust of the scholars. After Cao Cao was originally a eunuch, he was not allowed to be re-entered.

He was accepted by the scholars because he killed Jian Shuo's uncle, and now he was used as a knife for Wang Yun. This method is undoubtedly good, but now the other party wants to do things by himself.

It is not as simple as assassinating Dong Zhuo. If you are not careful, you will be doomed. This is why Chen Mo wants to use Guo Tai's incident to escape Luoyang.

If he stayed any longer, he would inevitably fall into a quagmire, and now he couldn't help the court's quagmire. He wanted to help the Han Dynasty, but he didn't want to risk his life and fortune in it.

If you want to go abroad, it is best to get the position of governor of a county, but who can help you?

Li Ru?

Chen Mo rejected this idea. Li Ru admired him more, but could not let him leave. According to Chen Mo's original plan, he would first go to Hedong in the name of chasing thieves, and then ask Dong Zhuo for money, food, and officials in the name of chasing thieves.

It is best to be able to lead the Hedong Prefecture on the basis of being the Sili Xiaowei.

"What are you worried about, husband?" Yun Si woke up at some point and snuggled next to Chen Mo like a cat.

"The night wind is very cold, don't get caught by the wind chill." Chen Mo stretched out his hand to pull up the silk quilt and covered Yun Si with a forced smile on his face.

"Today's matters in court were discussed by my former sisters." Yun Si obediently grabbed the silk quilt, with only one head exposed, and looked up at Chen Mo and said.

"Chun Nuan Pavilion has always been well informed." Chen Mo nodded and smiled.

"Since my husband knows Cai Weng, why not ask Cai Weng for help?" Yun Si said softly.

"Cai Weng?" Chen Mo thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Now the imperial court has sent people. Besides, Cai Weng and I only have a casual acquaintance."

"My concubine is saying that if my husband really goes to Hedong, Hedong Wei family and Cai Weng will have a good marriage." Yun Si said with a smile.

In other words, if Chen Mo has the opportunity to go to Hedong, he can establish some friendship with the Wei family in Hedong through the Caiyong line. In the local area, if there are local wealthy and prominent families to help, many things will become much easier.

"It's not as simple as you think. When Cai Weng's daughter married into the Wei family, Wei Zhongdao died of anger soon after. The Wei family used this to persecute Cai Weng's daughter. Friendship..." Chen Mo shook his head. Since he wanted to take over Bingzhou,

He has done some research on the wealthy families in Bingzhou. Although there are not many wealthy families in Bingzhou, the Wang family in Taiyuan and the Wei family in Hedong can be regarded as wealthy families. Of these two families, one is the Wang Yun family and the other is after the great general Wei Qing.

, the Wang family is already at odds with each other, and if the Wei family moves to Hedong, they will definitely be the ones to win over in the early stages.

The Wei family has always believed that Cai Yong's daughter was Kefu. Over the years, they have spared no effort to confirm this in public opinion. It is good to have a good in-law, but if the in-law is broken, it will be worse than an enemy.

"Are there these twists and turns?" Yun Si thought about it carefully after hearing this, and roughly understood that if the two were happy after marriage, the relationship between the two families would naturally be better, but now the Wei family feels that it was Cai Yong's daughter who killed Wei

Zhongdao, that's another situation.

Chen Mo nodded. He didn't expect to get any benefits from Cai Yong, but if Chun Yuqiong and the others could be defeated, the only people Chen Mo could count on now were Cai Yong and Xun Shuang.

"Don't talk about this, go to sleep." Chen Mo looked at his concubine, waved his hand to extinguish the oil lamp, and pulled the quilt...

There was nothing to say all night, and early the next morning, Chen Mo ordered someone to go to Cai Mansion to pay his respects. No matter what, Cai Yong was one of the few people in Chen Mo who could help Chen Mo and might also be willing to help him.

It is worth looking forward to Chunyu Qiong and the others leading the army. Although this is wrong, Chen Mo really hopes that these three people can be defeated. As a result, Wang Yun will have fewer generals to use.

Perhaps because of Dong Zhuo's favor, his reputation was damaged. Not many people visited Cai Yong's house now, so Chen Mo's letter of greeting quickly received a reply.

The next morning, Chen Mo came to Cai's mansion with carefully selected gifts to pay his respects.

"Master Chen, please stay in the side hall for a moment. The master of the house is waiting for guests, and there are some..." The steward of the Cai Mansion obviously did not expect that Chen Mo would come so early, and said apologetically.

"It's okay, I'm the one causing the disturbance, please lead the way." Chen Mo nodded slightly.

…

"Mr. Cai, you have also seen the trip of Thief Dong. At this time of crisis for the country, if Cai Weng can raise his arms and call out, people with lofty ideals in the world will definitely respond. Then why worry that great things will not be accomplished?" In the main hall, Wang Yun looked at Cai.

Yong, said eagerly.

"Master!" Cai Yong's words became more serious, and he looked at Wang Yundao and said: "Have you ever thought that if this is true, where is the majesty of the Han Dynasty? Where should your majesty be? Even if Dong Zhuo is killed, what about today?

Should we respect the emperor or the king? Is it possible to abolish the throne again?"

If the heroes crusade against Dong Zhuo, then should Liu Bian or Liu Xie be respected? If you continue to respect Liu Xie, wouldn't it prove that Dong Zhuo did the right thing? What's the difference between those so-called righteous men and traitors? But if you respect Liu Bian,

If we talk about abolishing the establishment again, the royal majesty will become a joke, which is definitely not what Cai Yong wants to see.

"This..." Wang Yun frowned, looked at Cai Yong and said, "We can respect both the emperor and the king!"

Just let it go as a confused incident, or even be more radical and kill one and keep the other. Of course, they cannot bear this crime.

"What nonsense!" Cai Yong slapped the table and said angrily: "The country is in a difficult situation now. As Han ministers, it is our duty to assist the royal family to purge the world and revive the Han Dynasty. As a human minister, how can you have such disobedient thoughts? If

So, what's the difference between you and Dong Zhuo?"

Wang Yun blushed when he was told that he was now a Situ in the dynasty. Although he was given the gift by Dong Zhuo, among the Luoyang scholars, Yuan Wei was ill and Xun Shuang retired. Almost everyone else respected him. Who would dare to

Accusing him face to face like this?

For a moment, the atmosphere was a little tense. At this moment, the faint sound of the piano suddenly came from the distance. The sound was ethereal and ethereal, which made people feel comfortable unconsciously. All kinds of anger and grievances gradually dissipated.

Cai Yong sighed, waved his hand and said, "That's all. If we have different ways of doing things, we should not work together. Let me, master, take care of ourselves. I am already old and have no intention of getting involved in worldly affairs. Maybe Ci Ming is right."

"In that case, Yun won't bother you anymore!" Wang Yun took a deep breath, stood up, saluted Cai Yong, and turned to leave.

"Master~" The steward sent Wang Yun away and just came back. He said to Cai Yong: "Sili Colonel Chen Mo is already waiting in the side hall. Do you want to summon him?"

"I'm rude to others, so I should go see him." Cai Yong shook his head. During this period, he was really upset. The prestige of the royal family, the reputation of the scholars, and Dong Zhuo's origin were all caught between him, but it was difficult for him to have both sides.

He had to stick to his heart, but things in the world were often not as he expected, which made him feel quite exhausted. Fortunately, his daughter was by his side and the music of the piano soothed him every day, which made him feel better.

Immediately I got up and went to the side hall.

…

This was the second time that Chen Mo heard the sound of the piano. He must have never heard it before. Yun Si could also play the piano. Although it was not pleasant to hear, in Chen Mo's opinion, it was just like that until he heard it in the pavilion that day.

After the woman played the piano, I realized that the music can touch people's soul even if it reaches the deepest level, and I had some idea of ​​wanting to learn the music.

Immersed in the faint sound of the piano, Chen Mo didn't realize that Cai Yong had arrived.

The steward looked at Chen Mo who was listening to the piano with his eyes closed. He wanted to step forward to wake Chen Mo up, but Cai Yong stopped him and signaled the steward to leave. He went straight to the main seat and knelt down. Looking at Chen Mo's appearance, he felt less irritated.

a bit.

After an unknown period of time, the sound of the piano stopped, and Chen Mo gradually came to his senses. When he saw Cai Yong, he hurriedly said politely: "Young man is innocent, Cai Weng forgives me."

"It doesn't matter, is my little girl's piano skills impressive?" Cai Yong said with a smile and shook his head.

"This song can only be found in heaven, and is rarely found in the world." Somehow, this sentence came into Chen Mo's mind and he said it smoothly.

"Wonderful sentence." Cai Yong nodded and said with a smile: "I once wanted to include the debates made by the generals in the past in the library, but I felt that the murderous spirit was too strong. However, in terms of literary elegance, the generals are no longer inferior to anyone in the world, but

I don’t know why so few poems about generals have been published? So far, I only know one article about polemics?”

"Cai Weng forgives me, but in my opinion, the world is in turmoil, and what we have to do is serve the country. Although poetry can cultivate sentiments, it cannot save the country!" Chen Mo looked at Cai Yong apologetically. Although he was talented in literature,

Yes, but if you say it is rare in the world, Chen Mo doesn't believe it.

"If it were ten years ago, I would definitely scold you." Cai Yong sighed after hearing this: "Such a good talent was wasted in vain, but now it seems that maybe the general is right. Today's court needs

It’s not a bitter scholar like me, but a righteous man like the general who can stand up when the country is in danger!”

"Cai Weng said seriously that all the ways in the world have their own reasons. At this time, the way I chose is different. If you say that poetry is useless because of this, it is too arbitrary." Chen Mo shook his head: "Cai Weng's double name, Mo Mo

I admire you very much.”

Cai Yong was a great scholar in the world, but he had two skills that were considered the most sinful in the world. One was calligraphy. Cai Yong's Feibai style was a font that scholars of the world were eager to imitate. The other was the qin, although Chen Mo had never heard of it.

But after seeing the music of Cai Yong's daughter just now, Chen Mo didn't dare to underestimate her.

"They say you are a genial person and are the best at communicating with others. Why do you put yourself here now?" Cai Yong looked at Chen Mo and had to say that Chen Mo knew how to speak. At least when you talk to him, you won't feel uncomfortable.

Comfortable, and after decades of ups and downs in the officialdom, Cai Yong knew very well that speaking is actually a kind of ability, and it is very important.

"Being sociable doesn't mean being blindly flattering. There are some things you can do, but there are some things you can't!" Chen Mo said seriously after a moment of silence.
