Chapter 42 Travel to Luoyang

"Hahaha, Yuan Benchu is really heartless. He is not ashamed of stealing dragons and phoenixes."

Suddenly, Cao Cao laughed to himself. The rest of the banquet looked puzzled and didn't know why.

Seeing this, Cao Cao stopped laughing and said, "A few days ago, Yuan Benchu told Cao that he had found the person who invented the horse hanging. At that time, he was still not pretending to be crazy. Cao thought that Yuan Benchu must not want to be rich, and casually found someone who was familiar with horse hanging to replace him. However, there are days in the dark. What do you want to go to Luoyang in the capital with Cao? General He was born as a butcher and can be said to be the most powerful poor family in the world. He will not look down on you, who is also from a poor family, like the Yuan brothers in Runan.

Cao Cao stared at Wen Han with a smile, and his eyes were full of expectation. At this time, Wen Han was very happy in his heart. After the joint ambush of the rich family in Xie County, after Wen Han escaped from death, he had been thinking about finding a big force to be attached first. Otherwise, he was afraid that before the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Wen Han would be killed by those rich families. That's why he pretended to be crazy and stupid to avoid the eyes of the rich family.

As Cao Cao said, He Jin was originally a butcher and came from a humble background. Because of God's favor, his sister married into the palace and was favored by Emperor Han Ling, as a country. He Jin was able to climb up one after another and sit in the position of general by virtue of nepotism. Wen Han is attached to He Jin. Although he can't guarantee that he can be reused, at least He Jin will never murder Wen Han because of his opinion, because he and Wen Han are both born in a poor family!

"How dare you not obey Meng De's invitation? It's just that I still have something to do in Xie County. I need to arrange something. I want to go to Luoyang by myself in a few days. There are two more things. I have the courage to take it. It takes Lord Cao to dare to start.

"Oh, do you want Cao to keep this secret, and then secretly recommend the extraordinary to General He?"

"Meng De's heart is bright, and I admire him. This Runan Yuan family hates me to the bone. It's easy to block with an open knife and a hidden arrow. I dare not fight against it with little strength.

"Okay, Cao understands the extraordinary and deep meaning. These two things are not difficult. Someone Cao promised you. In the future, in Luoyang, extraordinary companions will definitely add a lot of fun. Hahaha."

Cao Cao seemed to be very happy and drank three cups in a row. After that, because Wen Han decided about Luoyang, the banquet arrived at **, and everyone was drunk, talking nonsense, and fainted before they were willing to give up.

This is difficult for the Lin family to clean up the banquet. The Lin family sent Cao Cao back to the mansion first, and then asked people to carry Wen Han, Zhou Long, Xu Huang and Guan Yu back to their respective rooms. It took more than half an hour to clean up the courtyard.

By tomorrow morning, Wen Han got up to finish the training. Wen Han came to Lin, who told Wen Han the results and income of the horse hanging competition.

In the horse hanging competition, excluding the bonus expenditure, the income of the admission fee alone has reached a huge amount of 20,000 taels. In addition, Lin bought several restaurants in advance. During the horse crane competition, the restaurant's business was booming, with a net income of 8,000 taels. The two places added up to about 30,000 taels.

And the final winner of the horse hanging competition, heard from Lin, is a scholar dressed as a chivalrous man. The name seems to be Xu Fu.

When Wen Han heard the word Xu Fu, his calm face suddenly changed. He quickly stood up and asked Lin where he was. Seeing that Wen Han was flustered, Lin told him that Xu Fu had left for a few days and could not be found now.

Wen Han was disappointed after hearing this. Xu Fu, this is the real name of the super counselor 'Xu Shu'. Later, he should kill and change the list. He was chased and killed by the government. Finally, he was captured, and was rescued by many parties to escape, and then changed his name to Xu Shu.

Xu Shu is a great talent. Together with Shi Tao, Meng Gongwei and Zhuge Liang, he is called the 'Four Friends of Zhuge'. At first, he was Liu Bei's s. He is resourceful and decisive, and his expectation is like a god, which is deeply trusted by Liu Bei.

In the battle of Fancheng, Xu Shu saw through the "eight-door golden lock array" placed by Cao Ren and defeated Cao Cao's officers and soldiers. Cao Cao's general Cao Ren did not accept defeat and rose up late at night to rob the village in Xinye. Xu Shu had expected it for a long time. When Cao Ren left Fancheng, he took advantage of it. As a result, Fancheng was lost.

Cao Ren retreated from Xu Chang and was ashamed of Cao Cao. Cao Cao said, "Liu Bei must have a capable person to plan for him!"

Cao Cao found out that it was Xu Shu, so he wanted to deceive him to Xu Chang and stay with him.

They copied the handwriting of Xu Shu's mother and wrote to Xu Shu. When Xu Shu learned that his mother was in Xuchang, he had to say goodbye to Liu Bei with tears. But after arriving at Cao Ying, he never said a word again. This shows his loyalty.

What a pity. Since let this super awesome man slip away in front of his own eyes. However, Xu Fu was still traveling around to study at this time and failed to learn. Pulling him here too early is not to erase his future. Thinking of this, Wen Han also loosened his heart knot.

In the evening, Zhou Long returned from the county government. After dinner, everyone was discussing things in the hall.

Wen Han went to Luoyang this time and was ready to take only Guan Yu and Xu Huang. Pei Yuanshao stayed in Xie County to train soldiers and horses. At the same time, he could also take care of Zhou Long and his wife to prevent the revenge of the rich people in Xie County.

Wen Han told Zhou Long and his wife that Zhou Cang and Li Qiang scattered Shuanglong Mountain troops to set up gambling workshops in various counties, and told them to give them financial support if Zhou Cang and Li Qiang's subordinates came to find them and needed human or financial support. Zhou Long and his wife are used to obeying Wen Han's words and accept them now.

Later, Wen Han asked Zhou Long and his wife to secretly ask the blacksmith to build a saddle, and to buy a good horse. Wen Han planned to expand the number of black wind riders to 600 people. Since He Shuang became a county magistrate, Wen Han went to talk to him for several hours, and the two seemed to have made some agreements. He Shuang strongly supported Wenhan and integrated Wenhan's private soldiers into the county barracks. Ying Wenhan pretended to be stupid and took Pei Yuanshao to the position of general and jointly managed the soldiers and horses of the Xie County barracks with Yang Dian.

After Yang Hong left, Yang Dian was not implicated by it. He Shuang trusted him and still let him sit in this long history.

After Wen Han arranged the matter, he bought a carriage. The next day, he set out for Luoyang with Guan Yu and Xu Huang.

Luoyang is named because it is located on the north bank of the Guluo River. Because its peony flowers are in full bloom, it can be seen everywhere. Peony flowers are huge, with a wide variety of varieties, and the flowers are unique. When the flowers are blooming, there is a sea of people in Luoyang City, and you can see the beautiful appearance of the peony. There is also a saying that Luoyang peony is the best in the world. It is called Peony City.

Wen Han, Guan Yu and Xu Huang, saw different scenery all the way. Outside Luoyang City, there were unobstructed exiles everywhere. They were so hungry that they only had a skeleton left. Seeing that Wen Han's carriage was luxurious and two horses were pulling, they would come to ask for food. Wen Han divided his rations. Later, there was only a little left. He had no choice but to ask Xu Huang to give some broken silver.

After that, it became a vicious circle. The exiles dictated each other. There was a lot of good people who sent food and silver. The exiles rushed to it, followed the Wenhan carriage, and became a long queue.

Guan Yu and Xu Huang saw that the wandering people were yellow and thin, and some of them had not eaten for half a month. Some old people and children were knocked down repeatedly because they walked slowly, and their wounds were bleeding and were still chasing.

Unconsciously, these two men were infected by this picture, and their eyes were wet. Around Xie County, although there are also exiles, there are not many, and their posture is not bad. There is one eclipse for two or three days. At least it is not as miserable as the group of people in front of us.

"Luoyang is at the feet of the son of heaven, and there are so many exiles who can't wear and eat, okay! OK! The official of this court has done a good job!" Wen Han laughed angrily and stopped the carriage. Xu Huang took out all the grain and silver, and then asked Guan Yu to bring the elderly and children first, and give priority to the distribution of grain and silver.

Some young drifters, unwilling to be afraid of being late, secretly robbed the elderly, children's food and silver. When he was seen by the sharp-eyed Xu Huang, he ran over, grabbed several young people, and beat them hard.

Wen Han sighed that the world is so big and there are so many exiles. He has helped some, but he can't help all of them. One day of relief is not enough for life. Later, after the grain and silver factions were over, Wen Han got on the carriage with a sad face. Xu Huang and Guan Yu picked up the whip and left quickly.

There are still nearly two days away from Luoyang City. Wen Han, Guan Yu and Xu Huang originally wanted to leave more food for the exiles. They didn't eat much these days, and their stomachs had already been starved.

Wen Han's face is pale, his lips are dry, and his whole body is weak. Sitting behind the carriage, he was silent.

Another day passed, and he rested for a while on the way. Wen Han was sleeping and was awakened by Guan Yu. Guan Yu gave Wen Han a winp and motioned to go out.

Wen Han walked out of the carriage and saw a group of people following him. Their eyes were dull and they stood not far away. They did not dare to get too close. They knew that Wen Han and the three of them had no food and silver. However, I'm so hungry that I can't help it. I just follow it with my consciousness.

Wen Han smiled, and then asked Guan Yu to kill the two horses in the carriage. The people were immediately happy. They found firewood from everywhere and roasted the two horses to eat. Horse meat is not delicious, but it is the best food in the world at this time, as long as it can fill the stomach.

Many exiles came and kept squeezing forward. Guan Yu and Xu Huang came forward to drink, maintaining the order of the exile team like two gods.

Wen Han has been watching the exiles eating, observing the moment they got the horse meat, and gently biting the horse meat. Every face and expression of them, Wen Han is engraved in his heart.

Later, Guan Yu tore a piece of roasted horse meat for Wen Han. Wen Han shook his head and asked him to give the horse meat to a little girl. The little girl just divided the horse meat and gave the horse meat to the lame woman, who should be her mother. She was hungry. Seeing that many people didn't eat it, she didn't dare to ask for it anymore. She stood there and looked at Wen Han.

Guan Yu gave the horse meat to the little girl. The little girl was very happy and bit it slowly, afraid that she would eat too fast. The little girl ate half of it and suddenly came to Wen Han and handed over the horse meat tremblingly.

"Big brother, you gave it to me, and you don't have to eat it. I'm hungry. I ate some, and there's a lot more. Here you are.

Wen Han unconsciously left tears. He opened his mouth and couldn't speak. He just shook his head and motioned the little girl to eat the horse meat.

When the little girl saw Wen Han crying, she thought that Wen Han was hungry and his little black hands tore a small piece of horse meat.

"Big brother, I'll feed you."

Little girl, her smile is very naive.

Wen Han didn't want the little girl to lose this smile, so he stretched out his head and ate it.

At this time, the little girl's lame mother in the distance seemed to have made some determination when she saw this scene.

Suddenly, the little girl's mother, with her hands on the ground, suddenly hit a stone next to her.

A loud noise. The people around the little girl's mother shouted, "Someone is dead."

The little girl left the horse meat, ran to her mother, and cried terrily. Wen Han followed him. The little girl's mother looked at Wen Han and couldn't speak. She opened her mouth and said a few words.

Wen Han suddenly understood and nodded. The little girl's mother finally smiled at the little girl and died.
