However, at this moment, a shocked voice suddenly came from outside the restaurant.

"Big brother, what you said is true!" It

was an extraordinarily rough voice, which immediately attracted the attention of the guests of the restaurant.

Another voice sounded slowly, but it was a little unhurried, "Didn't you say it, this news has spread throughout Bingzhou, how can it be fake?"

Another voice sounded, "Hahahaha, if that's the case, this is a great joy

!

The one who spoke before was the leader of the three caravans, and he strode into the restaurant.

As soon as he stepped into the restaurant, the most rude man among the three couldn't help but shout,

"Come on, serve wine to everyone, and the account will be recorded on the head of a certain family!"

As he spoke, he threw a heavy money bag on the desk in the front cabinet.

The shopkeeper who was hiding behind the desk to settle accounts was startled, and he opened his mouth to scold his mother, but when he saw the bulging silver in the money bag, he immediately smiled.

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, Xiao Er, quickly arrange seats for these guest officers, and then serve wine to the guests!" For

a while, the whole restaurant was lively, there was free wine to drink, everyone was in high spirits, and some people couldn't help but ask curiously,

"What kind of happy event does this brother have?" Why don't you say it and celebrate with me?"

"Happy event? Hahahaha, that's right, it's a great happy event!".

The rough man laughed and turned his gaze to the other caravan leader,

"Mr. Sun, you can tell this news!" The

merchant surnamed Sun smiled and hugged around, and then said with a smile,

"You don't know, we are all businessmen from Taiyuan, doing business on the grassland, and we used to trade with Wuhuan, since Liu Yu and Liu Youzhou were still here, I have been doing this business for more than ten years,".

Saying that, Mr. Sun couldn't help but shake his head and sigh,

"However, in recent years, the Huns have been merging states for disaster, and it is not even easy to do business with us, but now it's okay!"

The rough man couldn't help but pick up the wine jar and took a big sip, then he threw down the wine jar and said with a smile,

"The Huns have been driven back to the grassland, and even the royal court has been broken, so they fled back to the depths of the grassland directly, and they don't dare to toss us anymore!"

"What?"

"Is there such a thing?"

"Really, which general led the troops and drove the Huns out?"

everyone was shocked, looked at the man who opened his mouth, and asked one by one.

"Who else could it be, it was Yuan Tan's eldest son, he led his subordinates, broke the Huns, and chased all the way to the grassland, and even the royal court was broken!" The

rough man laughed, and between his words, he admired Yuan Tan incomparably!

However, the entire restaurant fell into a strange silence because of his words.

What's going on?

Don't talk about the calm businessman surnamed Sun, even the rough man felt strange, how could it be that when it came to Yuan Tan's eldest prince, these guests were like eating flies?

Finally, a scholar's voice came,

"Can you guarantee it, is this news true?"

"Hmph!".

The businessmen who do trading on the grassland are all grumpy masters, after all, it is a business that licks blood at the tip of a knife, even if a calm person is, at a critical moment, he can still draw a knife and get on the horse.

Fortunately, the merchant surnamed Sun knew that it was in the Central Plains, not in the grassland, so he immediately sneered,

"This news has now spread all over Bingzhou, and the sky-high fire in the royal court will not be extinguished for three days, and even the guards on Taiyuan City can see it, or in a few days, the whole Hebei will know about it, and by then, you will know whether it is true or false!"

As he spoke, the group of merchants immediately got up and left the restaurant with a sneer.

The entire restaurant was silent, especially the scholar who had mocked Yuan Tan before, the loudest scholar, and his face at the moment was even more blue and white.

Extremely embarrassing.

In the secluded corner, even Zhao Yun, who had always been steady, couldn't hold his face and sneered after seeing this dramatic scene.

Yuan Tan couldn't help but chuckle and shook his head, his guards had already come to report just now, and Cai Yan's residence had been found.

immediately got up to pay the bill, and led Zhao Yun out of the restaurant.

Cai Yan's residence is the opposite of Yuan Tan's house, one is located in the east of the city and the other is located in the west of the city.

Different from the lively west of the city, Cai Yan's residence in the east of the city is more secluded, hidden in a bamboo forest.

A river runs around the bamboo forest, and a bamboo bridge is built on it, connecting Caifu and the bamboo forest.

It's just that this quiet bamboo forest is being disturbed by a group of boring guys at the moment.

A famous scholar was about to crowd the entire bamboo forest, waiting in line to enter Cai's mansion, which made Yuan Tan's eyes twitch a little when he saw it.

It's not that I feel sorry for the scholars who are about to stick together, but I feel sorry for the small bridge in the middle of the bamboo forest, which is almost about to fall into the river under the destruction of those scholars.

Zhao Yun also saw this situation for the first time, and he couldn't help but be a little at a loss for a while, not knowing whether he should go up and help Yuan Tan occupy a position, or how.

"What's the situation?"

Yuan Tan was also a little confused, so he couldn't help but turn around and ask the guard who inquired about the news.

The guard's face turned bitter, and he leaned into Yuan Tan's ear and explained the situation in a low voice.

The more he listened, the more cold Yuan Tan's expression became.

To put it bluntly, these scholars are just taking advantage of people's danger and bullying others!

Cai Yan's father, Cai Yong, was a great Confucian in the current dynasty, and his family had a collection of books, not to mention 10,000 volumes.

After Cai Yong's death, these books were left to Cai Yan's collection.

Although the Cai family is a famous family in the world, not to mention the thinness of the heirs, there is only Cai Yong in the entire lineage, and after Cai Yong's death, only Cai Yan remains.

That means that if anyone can marry Cai Yan, they will naturally be able to inherit the rich inheritance left by Cai Yong.

This kind of heritage is not just the hundreds of thousands of books in the material.

In other words, for Confucian scholars, this is a shortcut

to soaring to the sky! Therefore, since Cai Yan returned to Cai's mansion, not only scholars in Hedong Anyi, but also in Hedong and Hebei, Confucian scholars have continued to come to the door.

In the name of admiring Cai Yong's talent, he asked Cai Yan to borrow a book collection.

On the one hand, it is to get in touch with Cai Yan, hoping to get in touch with Fangze.

On the other hand, it is also to take advantage of it!

Although it is said to be "asking for a loan," judging from the information that the guards have inquired about.

After these people borrowed the books, no one returned them at all!

Anyway, the Cai family no longer has a man to support the façade, and there is only one Cai Yan left, can she still come to the door in person to return the books herself?"

"It's really, it's a good calculation!" Yuan

Tan looked at the group of scholars who surrounded the entire Cai Mansion, although there was a smile on his face, but in his eyes, there was a chill that could not be dissolved no matter what!
