Three Kingdoms: From Hulaoguan to Global Hegemony

Chapter 48

After Cai Yong received the imperial edict, the messenger pulled him aside and asked about Cai Yan in a low voice.

The messenger asked: "The grand master can make arrangements before you come. Be sure to let Cai Jijiu take his daughter to Luoyang. I don't know if Lingmei is in the tent. Can you please come out and ask the villain to meet?"

With such a straightforward request, everyone can see Dong Zhuo's thoughts. At this moment, Cai Yong suddenly understood what Liu Yu was referring to when he said that his official luck was borrowed from his daughter's luck.

Just as Cai Yong didn't know how to answer the messenger, Liu Yu stepped forward to relieve him.

Liu Yu said: "The daughter of the Cai family is resting in the tent due to the wind and cold, so the messenger should not disturb her."

With Liu Yu's intervening messenger, he didn't dare to force him. He only said that it was getting late today, and he would ask Cai Yong and his daughter to go back to Luoyang with them tomorrow morning.

Although this is not an imperial decree, it is Dong Zhuo's oral order.

After the messenger delivered the message, he followed Jia Xu down to rest, and there were only Liu Yu and Cai Yong left here.

To untie the bell, the person who tied it had to be tied. Cai Yong felt that since Liu Yu could measure his own official fortune, he must also have the ability to unravel his daughter Cai Yan's bad luck.

Cai Yong begged: "The king of Zhongshan's physiognomy is really an eye-opener for me! I don't plan to let my daughter marry in the Hanoi Wei family, but I can't go to Luoyang. I also ask you to give me a little help to break the bad luck for the little girl!"

"It's not too difficult to solve this situation, but I have to feel wronged by the younger sister of the Cai family!" Liu Yu asked Cai Yong to listen to him.

Liu Yu said that in order to completely dispel Dong Zhuo's covetousness towards Cai Yan, the best way is to pretend to be ill, a terminal illness that cannot be cured.

Cai Yong thought terminal illness is so easy to pretend, Cai Yan walked out of the tent while hesitating.

Cai Yan said: "I heard all your conversations, my daughter finally understands why my father didn't take me to Luoyang City, but if Dong Zhuo is so cruel and can't give him a satisfactory answer, I'm afraid... our whole family will suffer. !"

Cai Yan's words are exactly what Cai Yong has been worried about. He is not willing to give his daughter to Dong Zhuo, and he doesn't want his family to suffer, so he wants to marry his daughter away before going to Luoyang. Dong Zhuo can only rush if he wants to get mad. with him alone.

"Why don't you try the method of King Zhongshan!" Cai Yong sighed helplessly, and at this time he also lost his mind.

"My daughter is willing to listen to King Zhongshan's arrangement, but I'm really not good at just pretending to be sick!"

"What's so difficult about it!" Liu Yu said in a big way, "I know a kind of 'disguise technique' to make Cai Xiaomei look like a patient with just a little dressing up."

"It's just that this technique is a top secret in my family, so outsiders can't know too much, and it's also to prevent those messengers from seeing Cai Xiaomei, so Cai Xiaomei should come to my camp to discuss in detail tonight when it's dark."

As soon as Liu Yu finished talking about Cai Yong, he felt that this matter was inappropriate.

"Do you really want my daughter to go...in King Zhongshan's camp at night?"

It's just that his question made the scene a bit awkward, and Cai Yan lowered her head shyly.

Cai Yong must have asked this question for the sake of his daughter's reputation. Although Liu Yu wanted to talk to the beautiful woman in detail alone, it's a pity that his father is worried and there is nothing he can do.

So Liu Yu said righteously: "If Mr. Cai can't believe it, he will come with him!"

After Cai Yong heard the words, he felt that this was the safest way, but he felt that their father and daughter wanted to beg Liu Yu, but they suspected that his intentions were not right.

As soon as it got dark, the control in the entire Hulao Pass became stricter, and most people were not allowed to walk freely in the pass without a mission.

However, the Jinyiwei in the three guards of Liu Yu's personal soldiers has this privilege. In this matter, the commander of the Jinyiwei, the school lieutenant Zhang Dazheng, was ordered to come to pick up Cai Yong and his daughter.

"Daughter, I won't go with you. If King Zhongshan is so benevolent and righteous, if I really go with him, isn't it obvious that I don't trust people! You should go and have a good talk with him yourself!"

"Why did my father ask me to go by myself!" Cai Yan was a little puzzled why her father suddenly changed his mind, but she also felt that Liu Yu was a trustworthy person, so she went with Zhang Da.

In fact, Cai Yong was very careful about this matter. He was also in a hurry to go to the doctor. In order to prevent his daughter from falling into Dong Zhuo's hands, he was able to send his daughter to Wei's family to be his wife without a marriage contract.

But now Hedong Wei's family can't go, so he set his target in Hulao Pass.

"Liu Yugui is the king of the county. Not only does he have the air of a king, but also his character and wisdom are the top choices. If his daughter can marry him, even if it is a partial house, it will not be a loss!"

It was with this idea that Cai Yong decided to give these two young people more opportunities to meet alone, maybe the two are really destined.

But when he arrived in Luoyang, he only needed to say that his daughter had married into her husband's family. Even if Dong Zhuo was angry, he could only vent it on him alone, so that his daughter and the clan could be preserved.

……

Captain Zhang Da sent Cai Yan safely outside Liu Yu's tent, and then he called away all the soldiers guarding here.

Seeing that there was no one nearby to notify him, Cai Yan could only greet Liu Yu in a low voice outside the tent, and then the door curtain opened from the inside.

"Huh? Why is it just Cai Xiaomei herself, come in quickly!"

"Father suddenly said...not coming!"

It was the first time for Cai Yan to be alone in a room with a man, and she was so nervous that she didn't know what to do with shyness after saying this sentence.

Twenty-eight Fanghua, a pure year, Liu Yu was a little moved by watching it.

"Cai Xiaomei's nickname is Zhaoji, can I call you sister Zhaoji from now on?"

Hearing Liu Yu calling Cai Yan so affectionately, his face turned even redder.

Seeing that she had no objection, Liu Yu accepted it as soon as he saw it. After a light cough, he changed the topic to the "disguise technique".

"Sister Zhaoji, please sit here, I'll help you change your appearance!"

Cai Yan was a little dazed after hearing the weird name Liu Yu said, but she sat down obediently out of her trust in Liu Yu.

As soon as she sat down, Liu Yu put a very special thing in front of her.

The reason why it is called Cai Yan is because she has never seen this thing before.

But what surprised her even more was that when Liu Yu opened it, a beautiful woman was revealed inside.

"Ah! Who is this..."

Cai Yan panicked and covered her mouth with her hands nervously.

Looking at the "beauty" on the opposite side, she also had the same expression and movements.

"Sister Zhaoji, don't be afraid, this thing is... a mirror, it's just clearer than the bronze mirror you usually use."

After hearing that it was an object with the same function as the bronze mirror, Cai Yan noticed that the "beauty" inside really looked a bit like herself.

"This... mirror can reflect people so clearly! Could it be some kind of peerless treasure?"

All beauties like to look in the mirror. After the previous panic, Cai Yan began to look left and right in the mirror.

"If Sister Zhaoji likes it, I will give you this mirror!"

"Ah! Such a precious treasure, I can't take it!"

Cai Yan felt that the gift was too expensive and hurriedly waved his hand.

Liu Yu also knew that if the mirror was known by the upper class, it would definitely fetch a very high price, but to him it was only worth 5 yuan and five elements.

It's not easy for him to explain too much to Cai Yan, so he had to temporarily drop the gift.

Then Liu Yu took out a makeup box, which contained lipstick, eyebrow pencil, foundation and so on.

It turns out that the disguise technique that Liu Yu mentioned was actually preparing to put a sick makeup on Cai Yan.

How could Liu Yu know how to make up? He was so clumsy that he couldn't even apply lipstick evenly. Only then did Cai Yan discover that the box Liu Yu took out was filled with things that women use to make up.

It's just that these things are much more advanced than the rouge powder she has ever used.

Cai Yan was shocked again, she was born in a wealthy family, so she was sure that even the most favored concubine in the palace would never use these things.

Surprised, he suddenly heard Liu Yu yelling, and only then did Cai Yan realize that he had "disfigured" himself in the mirror.

So she hurriedly snatched the lipstick from Liu Yu's hand, not wanting him to scribble any more, and at the same time, it was rare that he would spoil the exquisite cosmetics.

It is said that women are natural makeup artists. After Cai Yan understood the purpose of each cosmetic, she quickly painted a beautiful makeup look for herself.

Cai Yan was already very beautiful, and Liu Yu was stunned immediately after adding the good-looking makeup.

"I finally know what it means to be beautiful and delicious! This 500 yuan Five Elements coin is worth it!"

Cai Yan didn't quite understand Liu Yu's words, but he could hear that the other party was praising her good looks.

She was easily shy and bit her lower lip, then said in an inaudible voice, "Can these be given to me?"

"As long as sister Zhaoji likes these, I will give you these, but you can't take them away for the time being, because your makeup doesn't look sick."

Liu Yu doesn't know how to make up, but he knows how to match colors. With the tacit cooperation of the two, he quickly painted Cai Yan as a sick beauty.
