Three Kingdoms: copy Lu Bu's force at the beginning

But it is said that Cai Mao left the General's Mansion in Zhendong and returned to the inn.

Although Cai Mao's trip was a business trip, but because it was too inconvenient to live in a post house, and the Cai family was not short of money, they lived in the most luxurious Chang'an Restaurant in Chang'an City.

Chang'an Restaurant is divided into front and rear floors.

The front building is small and is a place for eating and drinking.

The back building is big and is the place to stay.

As soon as Cai Mao came back, before he had time to wash his face, a young and handsome scholar entered Cai Mao's room lightly.

"Second brother is back?" the scholar shouted happily, "Second brother, have you ever seen General Zhendong?"

Second brother?

It's because Cai Xi has two daughters and one son. The eldest daughter is married to Huang Chengyan, Cai Mao is the second child, and the youngest daughter, Cai Yu, has not yet left the court.

Cai Mao glanced at Cai Yu, his eyes were full of love, and nodded: "Of course I saw it."

Cai Yu said excitedly: "Second Brother, I also went to General Zhendong's Mansion just now to observe General Zhendong's calligraphy carefully. It really is astonishingly amazing."

"Second brother, I have some doubts. Are the words on the plaque really written by General Zhendong?"

"As far as I know, General Zhendong is only one year older than me. How could he master calligraphy?"

Cai Xie not only invests in court officials, but also pays attention to the training of two sons and one daughter.

The eldest daughter, Cai Xin, focuses on literary talents, and married Huang Chengyan as his wife, which is a perfect match.

The second son, Cai Mao, focuses on military strategy and is a famous general in Jingzhou.

The third daughter, Cai Yu, focuses on piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

Therefore, Cai Yu was very excited to see such calligraphy in the world with his own eyes.

Cai Hao said with a smile: "There is no doubt about it. This matter was witnessed by Lord Cai Yong and Lord Zhong Yao with their own eyes, so it is naturally true."

"Although General Hua is young, he is very handsome. There is no arrogance and rudeness of Xiliang people in his speech. On the contrary, he is polite, humble and courteous, without any prestige."

"Besides, I invited him to come to Yingge for a drink tomorrow. I thought that if I took the liberty to invite him, General Hua would definitely refuse, but I didn't expect him to agree."

Come to Yingge?
Cai Yu's eyes lit up immediately: "Second Brother, if you come to Yingge for a drink tomorrow, you must bring me with you."

Cai Hao was angry and funny, and glared at Cai Yu: "Laiying Pavilion is a place of brothels, how can women go there?"

Cai Yu pouted and snorted: "Tomorrow I will disguise myself as a man, as long as the second brother doesn't tell me, who will know that I am a daughter?"

Cai Hao frowned slightly, but still didn't want Cai Yu to go, and rolled his eyes: "Didn't you make an appointment with Yufeng, you will go to Da Ci'en Temple to offer incense tomorrow, how can you break the appointment?"

"Hmph, I know you just don't want to take me there." Cai Yu snorted, ignored Cai Mao, and went back to her room.

Seeing Cai Yu leave angrily, Cai Mao also heaved a sigh of relief and shook his head involuntarily.

If it wasn't for him, a big man, to persuade Fan Yufeng to go south, Cai Mao really didn't want to bring this difficult sister to Chang'an.

Cai Yu didn't listen to Cai Mao's discipline at all, only the eldest sister Cai Xin would listen to Cai Yu.

At this time, Tian Yi had already arrived in Hongnong County.

The Zou family is a big family in Hongnong County, and their business is not small.

But since the Yellow Turban, the Zou family's business has been greatly affected.

Today, the business of the Zou family has shrunk by more than half of what it was in its prime.

After all, a lean camel is bigger than a horse, and the Zou family is still the richest family in Hongnong County.

The reason why the Zou family survived was because they had a good relationship with every Hongnong prefect.

Collusion between government and businessmen benefits both parties, and it has always been the case.

After Dong Zhuo moved the capital, he appointed Zhang Ji as the prefect of Hongnong.

Although Zhang Ji is Zhang Xiu's uncle, he is only four years older than Zhang Xiu, in his early twenties.

At this age, and the military power is in my hands, and I am in charge of a county, I naturally have the desire to enjoy it.

Money and beautiful women must be necessary for those in power.

As for the money, it is enough to collect some bribes from the local tycoons and subordinates from taxes.

As for the beauties, they had to be inquired about, so Zou was inquired by Zhang Ji.

Zhang Ji was a man of action, so he immediately led his troops around Zou's house, showing off his might and frightening the Zou's house.

After Zhang Ji left, [-] soldiers stayed near Zou's house, and all members of Zou's house were subject to interrogation when they entered or left.

According to old habits, the Patriarch of the Zou family visited Zhang Ji's house again the next day with a large sum of money. He thought Zhang Ji thought that the gift given by the Zou family last time was too light.

Who would have thought that Zhang Ji would not accept him and kicked out the Patriarch of the Zou family after he disagreed with each other in a few words.

At this moment, the Zou family panicked, they didn't know what Zhang Ji meant.

So, when the Zou family inquired, they learned that Zhang Ji was sending people to look for beautiful women everywhere.

The Patriarch of the Zou family went to visit Zhang Ji again, this time not only the gifts were increased, but also more than a dozen beauties with various styles.

As a result, Zhang Ji kicked out the Patriarch of the Zou family again, without any presents or beauties.

A terrifying atmosphere enveloped the Zou family. They didn't know what this Xiliang warrior wanted?
A few days later, the Patriarch of the Zou family finally found out the news that Zhang Ji had taken a fancy to Miss Zou's family.

The Patriarch of the Zou Family couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Although the Patriarch of the Zou Family was reluctant to part with his daughter, for the sake of the entire Zou Family, he had to.

Therefore, the Zou family also sent someone to tell Zhang Ji that as long as Zhang Ji came to propose marriage, the Zou family would betroth the Zou family to Zhang Ji.

In this way, Zhang Ji was satisfied, and agreed to come to the door to propose marriage three days later, and then withdrew the five hundred soldiers.

Who would have thought that Tian Yi would arrive early in the morning three days later before Zhang Ji arrived.

The Patriarch of the Zou family was taken aback, who is Tian Yi, one of Dong Zhuo's confidantes, with a lot of authority.

According to the experience of the Zou Family Patriarch for many years, when such a person comes to the door, there will either be a great good or a great disaster.

Immediately, the Patriarch of the Zou family personally came to the door and welcomed Tian Yi into the mansion respectfully.

After serving the tea, the Patriarch of the Zou family laughed along with him, and asked tentatively, "I don't know if Mr. Tian suddenly visited the humble house, what can I order, the Zou family will definitely do their best."

Tian Yi smiled and said: "Brother Zou is indeed a smart man. Since I am here, it is natural that I will go to the Three Treasure Hall for nothing."

"Xiangguo heard that Brother Zou has a daughter under his knees, who is beautiful, knowledgeable, and proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. I wonder if there is such a thing?"

The Patriarch of the Zou family was taken aback. These words were true. He did not expect that even Dong Zhuo would take aim at his daughter.

"The little girl is just like a willow." Patriarch Zou's family was a little confused, with a slightly embarrassed face, "Also, yesterday I will..."

"Huh?" Before the Patriarch of the Zou family finished speaking, Tian Yi glared and shouted, "Why, does Xiangguo have to come here in person to talk to Brother Zou?"

The Patriarch of the Zou family was terrified, and hastily changed his words: "Lord Tian, ​​calm down."

"I mean, yesterday I have already made preparations, and I am going to dedicate my little girl to Xiangguo to serve you."

"Brother Zou, don't misunderstand." Tian Yi changed into a smiling face again, and said lightly, "It's not that Xiangguo is interested in your daughter, but that Xiangguo is asking for it for his general Hua Yu."

"General Hua Yu Hua Ziyi of Zhendong made great military exploits for Xiangguo. Brother Zou must have heard of it too, right?"

"It's just that General Zhendong is in the time of his father's funeral, so he cannot marry for three years."

"Xiangguo is sympathetic to his subordinates, so he intends to find one or two beauties for General Zhendong to serve around him, so he sent this official here."

Hua Yu is at the time of his father's death?
Can't marry within three years?
Let Rong'er serve around?
The Patriarch of the Zou family almost wanted to cry. Tian Yi's words meant that the Zou family should go to Zhendong General's Mansion to be a housemaid. To put it bluntly, she was Hua Yu's plaything.

Hua Yu's reputation is far higher than Zhang Ji's, and his status in Dong Zhuo's eyes is also far higher than Zhang Ji's.

However, Zhang Ji gave the dowry today and is going to marry Mrs. Zou, so he is the main wife.

Zhang Ji, Zhang Ji, why do you insist on giving the dowry in three days?
If you give the dowry the next day, how can I make things difficult for the old man?

Seeing the troubled face of the Patriarch of the Zou family, Tian Yi coughed lightly, and asked indifferently: "Why, Brother Zou is not happy?"

unwilling?
The Patriarch of the Zou family wanted to cry, I... I really don't like it, but I dare to tell the truth.
