"I'm afraid that after the general leaves, those princes won't treat us people as human beings!" A young man in the crowd said in a loud voice.

"You don't have to worry about this, it is Yuan Shao, who has a prominent family background, who has come to take over Luoyang. Yuan Shaozu was the fourth and third princes, and he believed that he would love the people like a son. Seeing

that Chen Chu's idea of leaving was certain, the people didn't say anything more. The old man offered a jar of wine he had prepared, and said in a choked voice; "General, since you have to leave for the sake of the overall situation, how can we stop it! We poor people don't have anything to get their hands on, only a jar of home-brewed wine, to express our hearts, and ask the general not to dislike it!

Chen Chu solemnly took the small jar of wine that the old man had offered with both hands. Immediately slapped open the mud seal, raised his head and drank heavily. Xu Shu was shocked when he saw this, if the other party harbored evil intentions and poisoned the wine, what should it be! Frustrated Professor hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, but Xu Shu grabbed him, even if there was a problem, it was already too late at this time, and it would also destroy the current atmosphere.

Chen Chu drank the small jar of wine in one go, and then laughed: "Hahaha, it's really good wine!"

Everyone's hearts suddenly swelled with an inexplicable emotion, and they knelt down together and said, "Congratulations to the general!" "The scene was spectacular and moving.

Chen Chu let out a long sigh, re-mounted the war horse, and led the soldiers straight out of the north gate. Chen Chu secretly made up his mind in his heart and said: I, Chen Chu, will definitely come back!

Diao Chan, who was sitting in the carriage, saw this scene, and his heart was churning. She couldn't help but think of her father-in-law, Wang Yun, who was originally the best and best court official in her heart, but the people had never treated him like this. Seeing these many people kneeling down to Chen Chu from the bottom of their hearts, and seeing the tall figure in the center of ten thousand people, Diao Chan was suddenly so excited that he couldn't help himself. This is my man! Diao Chan kept saying this in his heart.

Immediately, a little resentment welled up in my heart. Diao Chan bit her red lip lightly, and there was a look of depression in her eyes.

Diao Chan was a little resentful of Chen Chu, she didn't understand why Chen Chu sent someone to take her over the door so vigorously (a good thing that Dian Wei did), but why didn't he even come to see her during this time!? Diao Chan cares about Chen Chu, she doesn't know what Chen Chu really thinks in her heart, and she can't help but suffer a little from gains and losses.

Speaking of which, Chen Chu is still very good at treating Diao Chan. Although I have never been to see Diao, I often care about Diao's life. Diao Chan is far more comfortable and comfortable in Chen Chu than in Wang Yun. Here, without suspicious eyes and heavy pressure, Diao Chan felt an unprecedented ease and happiness. But these are far from enough for a woman, and now Diao Chan's heart longs most for being able to feel Chen Chu's warmth.

Diao Chan is not a stupid waiting woman, she secretly made up her mind in her heart that she must show Chen Chu her value and charm.

Luoyang Cai Mansion.

Since the Luoyang Poetry Club ended hastily, Cai Wenji has been stuffy in the boudoir. For any of the guests who came to the door, even Wei Zhongdao, who came to the door several times, was no exception.

Cai Yong and Cai's mother couldn't help but be a little worried, they didn't know what was wrong with their daughter. Cai Yong and Cai's mother once tried to communicate with Cai Wenji, but they never got the point.

On this day, Cai Wenji suddenly took the initiative to find her father Cai Yong.

Cai Yong and Cai's mother couldn't help but be a little surprised, and at the same time breathe a sigh of relief.

After saluting, Cai Wenji said to her father Cai Yong: "Father, I've worried you these days!" It's the daughter who is not good!

Cai Yong nodded with satisfaction, "Wen Ji, what is bothering you these days?" Let your mood be so trance-like!

Cai Wenji smiled lightly, turned her head to look at the sky outside the house, and said leisurely: "My daughter is grateful for her father's teachings, and now she finally has a little reputation. I thought that I was no longer inferior to any talent in terms of literary talent, but I didn't want it to be so shallow and ridiculous!

Cai Yong frowned, "Wen Ji, are you still thinking about the poetry meeting that day?"

Cai Wenji smiled, and instead of answering, he asked, "Father, how is the poem written by the general of the expedition to Peking University that day?"

Cai Yong's eyes suddenly lit up, then dimmed again, and then shook his head and said: "Although the style of this poem is very different from the ordinary, it is a rare masterpiece. This poem is majestic and heroic! I'm afraid that only a character like General Zhengbei can write such a poem! People like me who are dancing and writing ink, no matter how talented they are, I am afraid they will not be able to make such a sonorous masterpiece! Then he showed a look of regret, "It's a pity that the general of Zhengbei left in a hurry at that time, and we haven't had time to ask the name of this poem!"

"I have also heard your father recite the poem written by the general of Zhengbei, and it is indeed a rare masterpiece! I didn't expect this general to conquer the north to be such a civil and military figure! Cai's mother also said with great emotion.

"Father and mother, I am staying in my room these days just to make a poem that is not inferior to this poem!"

Cai Yong and Cai's mother suddenly realized when they heard this.

Immediately, Cai Wenji's expression darkened, "But I racked my brains to do several unsatisfactory ones!" It seems that I can't compare with the literary talent of General Zhengbei! Cai Wenji said with great emotion, her delicate face was full of unwillingness. If Chen Chu heard Cai Wenji say this, he didn't know how he would feel.

Cai Yong nodded, he thought so.

Cai Wenji was silent for a moment, and then suddenly said to Cai Yong: "Father, we have received the great grace of General Zhengbei for saving us, but we have not expressed our gratitude yet. Speaking of this, Cai Wenji's delicate cheeks suddenly turned slightly red, and then said softly: "It's better to hold a banquet at home and invite General Zhengbei to come and talk, and we can express our gratitude to General Zhengbei."

Cai Yong and Cai's mother looked at each other and smiled, with a bit of playfulness in their expressions.

Then Cai Yong said to his daughter: "Wen Ji, my father actually had this idea for a long time, but I was always worried that you would oppose it, so I didn't bring it up." You can think so now, and be glad for the Father.

"In that case, then the daughter will personally invite the general to conquer the north!" Cai Wenji stood up and said, even if she was going to go out.

Seeing this, Cai's mother hurriedly stopped her daughter.

"Wen Ji, don't worry. Although we intended to invite General Zhengbei, this matter could no longer be realized.

Cai Wenji was stunned for a moment, and then said very indignantly: "Is it Chen Chu that looks down on us!"

Cai Yong didn't expect Cai Wenji to think like this, so he was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Wenji, why do you think so?"

Cai Wenji didn't know what to do, and showed a puzzled look, "Isn't that so?"

"Of course not! The reason why your mother said that was because the Northern Expeditionary Army had already left Luoyang this morning. Chen Chu had already handed over control of Luoyang to Yuan Shao, the Marquis of Qixiang.

Cai Wenji was stunned. Left, how could this be?

"Father, why did Chen Chu leave?" Cai Wenji asked with some eagerness.

Cai Yong glanced at his daughter, and after a little thought, he replied: "As a general of the expedition to the north, how can Chen Chu be stationed in Luoyang, Zhongzhou. Moreover, the northern frontier is not very peaceful now, and it is necessary to recruit the northern generals to defend it. In fact, the real reason is not like this, but Cai Yong is unwilling to let his daughter know the ugliness and cruelty of politics, so he did not tell his daughter the real reason.

Cai Wenji was silent, and her mood suddenly became very bad. She originally planned to worship Chen Chu as her teacher at the family banquet, but this wish cannot be realized now.

Cai Yong and Cai's mother looked at Cai Wenji, who was frowning and silent, with some concern.

"Wen Ji, you don't have to be disappointed. General Zhengbei, he will definitely return to Luoyang. Cai's mother came to Cai Wenji's side and comforted softly.

Cai Wenji nodded, her frowning brow stretching slightly.

"Mother, father, I want to go out for a walk." Cai Wenji said lightly.

Cai's mother glanced at Cai Yong, and Cai Yong said to Cai Wenji: "The Northern Army has left, and now there is chaos in Luoyang City." Yuan Shaojun, who took over Luoyang, had very poor military discipline, which was simply adding to the chaos. How can I and your mother rest assured when you go out!

Although Cai Yong said so, Cai Wenji's attitude was very resolute. In desperation, Cai Yong had no choice but to agree to Cai Wenji's request. However, he asked Cai Wenji to bring more family members with him.

The reason why Cai Yong agreed to Cai Wenji going out for a walk was not because he couldn't resist Cai Wenji, but because he thought that with Yuan Shao's identity, no matter how he said it, he would not do anything out of the ordinary in Luoyang City, and Yuan Shao's army would not dare to be embarrassed when they saw the sign of his Cai family. The reason why he asked Cai Wenji to bring more family members was mainly to guard against gangsters who wanted to take advantage of the chaos to rob when the two forces were handed over. However, Cai Yong didn't expect that trouble still happened at this time, and it came from Yuan Shao's soldiers.

Cai Wenji went out of Cai's mansion accompanied by the maidservant's family. After Cai Wenji left, Cai Yong said to his wife with some emotion: "When the Northern Army is here, this Luoyang City can be described as not closing its doors at night!" And yet now, alas! Cai Yong couldn't help but shake his head.

"Master, there's nothing we can do about these things! Don't think too much about it, it will only add to your troubles! Cai's mother gently held Cai Yong's hand and said with relief.

Looking at his wife's gentle face, Cai Yong's mood was much better.

As soon as Cai Wenji left Cai's mansion, she asked the coachman to drive the carriage to the north gate. The carriage was flanked by dozens of sturdy family members.

The location of the Cai family is a street where the officials of the scholar clan live. At this time, the street is very lively, and many people are lit up at the gate. They were all celebrating the departure of the Northern Army, and at the same time welcoming Yuan Shao, who came from a prominent family, to Luoyang. From this point of view, Chen Chu really failed!

Cai Wenji felt a little depressed, so she asked the driver to speed up.

Coming out of Guanyun Street, Cai Wenji saw another scene.

The streets were very chaotic, and Yuan Shao's soldiers were running rampant in all directions. From time to time, Yuan Shao's soldiers came out of the houses with large bags and small bags, followed by people crying and pleading. Yuan Shao's soldiers would often unceremoniously kick the people who were in the way, which was not bad, and even pulled out their weapons to kill people in the street.

Crying, screaming, and wailing filled the streets and alleys of Luoyang.

Cai Wenji in the car was shocked, he didn't expect that after the Northern Army left, Luoyang would become such a scene! Compared with the previous scene when the Northern Army controlled Luoyang, it was a world of difference! Thinking that he and a group of self-righteous literati had accused Chen Chu unknowingly before, Cai Wenji suddenly felt extremely ashamed.
