"It's good to have confidence." Hao Dadao sighed as he touched his horse's mane.

Zhengtou nodded happily at the side. He looked at Wei Cheng who had boarded the lift platform in advance and said, "If the young master had been in our village before, we wouldn't have to worry about those Lao Shizi soldiers and bandits, we would all be chopped down by him."

Hao Dadao frowned and looked to the east, which was the direction where Haojia Village was before. Not only was his home there, but also the heroic souls of hundreds of villagers. If not for their sacrifices, the people in Haojia Village would not have been able to escape smoothly.

He also looked in that direction, clenched his fists and asked, "Uncle, are we going back?"

Hao Dadao opened his mouth, sighed first, and then said: "Sooner or later, I have to go back, but not now."

He looked at Wei Qing who had already gone up the mountain, with a look of expectation in his eyes, and said: "We have just offended Hu Biao. If we don't have the protection of the young master, we will be afraid of turning back... Therefore, wherever the young master is, we will be there."

It may be a bit selfish to say this, and it is suspected of pulling Wei Cheng into trouble, but from Hao Dadao's point of view, for the wealth and lives of the more than 300 people in Haojia Village, his decision is correct. At least he made the right bet, Wei Cheng

It can indeed lead them to live a good life.

No, twenty-three war horses, as well as weapons and protective equipment, can directly arm a small team.

The horses were sent to the top of the mountain in batches, and the three wretched men were tied to a big tree by their heads, with their legs facing up and their heads down, hanging directly upside down.

Wei Cheng was not in a hurry to interrogate them, but went back to the shabby room and changed into clean clothes. He had stood in the stinky sky for a long time, and he felt that his body was smelling.

Bathing is a bit of a luxury nowadays, but back in the modern era it was not necessary, just change into clean clothes.

However, as soon as he entered the door, he saw Cai Yan and Hao Niang helping him smoke his clothes.

The ancients also liked to be fragrant, so the clothes worn by wealthy people were smoked with various spices in advance.

There are many types of spices, some are refreshing, some are repellent to mosquitoes and insects, and some are just for the sake of smelling good.

Wei Cheng also did considerable research on this aspect. He took a deep breath and knew the types of spices and medicinal materials contained in the aromatherapy.

Seeing Wei Cheng returning, the two women stood up almost at the same time.

"Husband."

"Son."

Wei Cheng nodded awkwardly, "You guys are busy, I'm just coming back to change my coat."

Hearing this, Cai Yan hurriedly took the freshly smoked Shu brocade gown. Hao Niang walked up behind Wei Cheng and helped him take off his clothes. She also said, "Master, this gown has a strange smell. I

Take it and wash it."

After she finished speaking, she didn't care whether Wei Cheng answered or not, and turned around and walked out of the hut. Then Wei Cheng only felt the fragrant breeze coming over him. Cai Yan came over and helped him unfold his coat. He could put it on as long as he stretched out his hand. He was so busy waiting.

In place.

What an evil feudal society.

Wei Cheng dully let Cai Yan help him put on his clothes. When he put on his belt, he lowered his head and could smell the unique milky fragrance of the girl, which made him feel a little distraught.

Just as he was lifting his hips and tightening his waist, Cai Yan suddenly said: "Husband, I heard Sanniang say that the person coming down the mountain is from Hujiabao. When I come back this time, Mr. Dong, the pastor of Bingzhou, sent me back.

He should still be in Anyi now, if..."

"Master Dong, the pastor of Bingzhou?" Wei Cheng blurted out instinctively, "It's Dong Zhuo."

Cai Yan's movements on her hands paused for a moment, and she suddenly remembered that the wealthy people in Hedong were all in the same spirit, and looked down upon the blind and careless people the most. To put it bluntly, they thought of themselves very highly. How could you imagine that your husband was also such a person?

However, when she didn't answer, Wei Cheng turned around and looked at her condescendingly.

Looking directly at this woman again, Wei Cheng couldn't help but feel amazed. Call her beautiful. The beauty stars of later generations may not be worse than her, but this woman is not only good-looking, she also has a bookish air all over her body.

This is a unique temperament that cannot be cultivated without years of literary exposure. In later generations, it can only be found in professors and doctors. But Wei Cheng has never seen her look so good.

The words came to her mouth and she suddenly didn't know how to say them out. Wei Cheng didn't have a good impression of Dong Zhuo. Mainly in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Dong Zhuo's role was that of a lustful man who admires power.

Wei Cheng once read a micro-article. The author described Dong Zhuo as a man of justice, neither greedy for money nor lustful. He also had great leadership skills, was very protective of his subordinates, and had the ability to assess the situation.

Wei Cheng didn't know which Dong Zhuo was the real Dong Zhuo, so when the woman mentioned Dong Zhuo, he couldn't help but be more distracted.

I don't want his behavior to appear in the eyes of women, but it means something else.

"Does your family have any friendship with Dong Zhuo?" Wei Cheng asked pretending to be indifferent.

Cai Yan pursed his lips and responded softly: "My father lived in exile outside the Great Wall in his early years. Fortunately, Mr. Dong helped him for a while."

Wei Cheng was stunned for a moment and asked curiously: "Your father... uh, why did Lao Taishan live in exile outside the Great Wall?"

Cai Yan frowned slightly and raised his head to look at Wei Cheng. Cai Yong's early life experience was not a secret. Logically speaking, Wei Cheng shouldn't know about it. Otherwise, why did he agree to marry him?

Wei Cheng also realized it later, scratched his head in embarrassment, and said: "Oh, I remembered...ahem, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, so, Mr. Dong is kind to you. If there is a chance, I would like to have a good drink.

Meat was served to him."

Cai Yan came back to his senses and looked happy: "Husband, do you really think so?"

Wei Cheng laughed, "Well, if there is a chance."

The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. Cai Yan nodded, as if he was planning something.

···

at the same time.

Hu Biao was rejected by Dong Zhuo.

The Wei family's mansion.

Hu Biao walked out angrily, Wei Gong accompanying him. Wei Gong hated this General Hu, but he could do nothing.

The person above Hu Biao is Zhang Rang, one of the ten permanent servants. Yes, the same Zhang Changshi Zhang Rang who said "Chang Shi Zhang is my father" in Emperor Ling's mouth. This man is the head of the eunuch group.

Easily play with the imperial power in the palm of your hand.

The ten permanent servants were levied violently, and their fathers, brothers and sons were spread all over the world. With the support of people in the court, these people ran rampant in the countryside, causing harm to the people, and no officials dared to control them. According to legend, Hu Biao also worshiped Zhang Rang as his adoptive father, so Zhang Rang was able to earn tens of thousands of dollars a day.

Jin's salt lake was handed over to him for management.

Regardless of whether it was true or false, Wei Gong and even the Wei family did not dare to slight Hu Biao, especially at the cusp of this storm.

Unless, Wei Cheng's prediction comes true.

"General Hu, I'm extremely sorry. Mr. Dong, as the shepherd of a state, doesn't dare to neglect him easily. Since he said he can't see guests, Mr. Wei can't make any decisions, so Mr. Hu's trip was in vain."

After Wei Gong finished speaking, Hu Biaobao raised his eyes slightly, looked at him and said, "Brother Wen, you're welcome. Dong Zhoumu has been tired from traveling all the way, so it's time to take a rest. Hu will come back tomorrow to chat."

These words were meant to be probing, and Hu Biao was very puzzled as to why Wei, who had always thought highly of himself, suddenly got involved with Dong Zhuo.

Why did Wei Gong not know that there was something behind his words, so he said: "If Mr. Hu is interested, he should do it as soon as possible. Mr. Dong just happened to be passing by and stayed for two days. He may not be here tomorrow."

Wei Palace did not say that Dong Zhuo was entrusted by Cai Yong to send his second wife Cai Yan back to the Wei family. After all, this was a family matter. But the meaning of his words was very clear. There was no excessive involvement between the Wei family and Dong Zhuo.

, I hope Hu Biao won’t think too much.

Wei Gong knew that Hu Biao was Zhang Rang's subordinate, and also knew that Dong Zhuo sent his troops south to deal with those eunuchs, so he misunderstood Hu Biao's purpose.

If he had known that Hu Biao admired Dong Zhuo and wanted to work under Dong Zhuo, I'm afraid he would not have said this.

Hu Biao looked at Wei Gong in front of him intentionally or unintentionally, and smiled contemptuously. In his opinion, the children of these aristocratic families all have a common problem, that is, they seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.

Sit back and reap the benefits of being a fisherman.

Unlike him, seeing that He Jin was gaining momentum and the eunuch group headed by his immediate boss Zhang Rang was in danger, it was of course necessary to quickly find the next umbrella at this time, and Dong Zhuo was an excellent candidate.

What I have to say is that this Hu Biao still has some discernment, and I don’t know if he really followed Dong Zhuo in history.

Now that he has been rejected, Hu Biao is not discouraged.

After exchanging pleasantries with Emiya for a few more words, he said goodbye and left.

When he returned to Hujiapu, he could only enjoy the food and wine prepared by himself. When he was feeling bored, his subordinates suddenly came to report.

"Brother, the fourth child went to ask for someone, but he hasn't come back yet. Do you think something will happen?"

Hu Biao frowned and asked in a deep voice: "How long have you been there?"

The subordinates responded without hesitation: "It has been three or four hours, and they all went there on horseback, and the round trip took up to two hours... Mainly because there have been Yellow Turban rebel attacks in many of our territories recently, and I am afraid of them...

"

Hu Biao stopped and said that when it came to the Yellow Turban Thief, he was one of the top two. During this period, the salt farm he was responsible for was often harassed. Today he would set a fire and tomorrow he would kill a few people. It was really annoying.

"We have to guard against the Yellow Turban rebels. You go tell the second brother and ask him to lead people to search along the road. The fourth brother is lustful and may have gone to some village to become romantic." Hu Biao ordered and walked straight into the hall.

The subordinate nodded and felt that this was a possibility, so he did not rush to find anyone. After all, this kind of thing happened more than once or twice... Little did he know that his delay gave Wei Cheng time to cover up.

···

Here in Haojiacun, everything is proceeding in an orderly manner according to Wei Cheng's arrangements.

In the woods, Zhengtou led the men and led the horses back and forth, creating the illusion that a large army was passing by.

Hao Zhao, on the other hand, led a few young men and used their weapons to claw at the trees, creating a scene of a battle.

"Brother Chengtou, the young master said it would be best to sprinkle some human blood. Even if the person is captured, there will be no traces of blood left on the scene."

Hearing this, Zhengtou agreed. He turned around and said to his brother Banjin: "Go back to the village and bleed those three people. Just collect a jar. Remember to ask the mute to stop the bleeding. Keep those three people. I will still interrogate you later."

where are they."

Banjin was a little reluctant, but when he mentioned Wei Cheng, he became embarrassed and nodded in agreement.

Zhengtou added: "Try not to leave any footprints when you go back, otherwise you will have to clean up later."
