Wei Zhongdao was able to escape death this time, thanks to Liu Xin's timely arrival with the army, but he did not have the slightest gratitude. Seeing Cai Yong's excited expression, Wei Zhongdao already understood that his family affairs were definitely going to be ruined, and Suo said with a heartfelt voice: "Sir, you also know what happened just now, I was forced to do so." As the saying goes, women are like clothes, and if they are lost, they can be replaced, and if their lives are gone, what is the use of just having clothes. ”

Liu Xin was stunned at that time, it turned out that this Wei Zhongdao and Liu Bei were all the way, and they also used women as clothes, so they were immediately furious and said: "Come on, since he said so, then strip him of his clothes and tell him not to wear clothes." ”

A few flying tiger guards pounced fiercely, and the more than ten caravan guards saw how powerful they were, and no one dared to step forward to stop them. Wei Zhongdao was so anxious that he shouted: "Liu Xin, as an official of the imperial court, how can you bully the people at will." ”

Liu Xin sneered: "Since you know that I am an official of the imperial court, but you still dare to call me by my name, are you not afraid that I will punish you?" ”

Wei Zhongdao had already been pressed to the ground by several soldiers, stripped naked, and only a pair of pants remained. At this time, it was already the winter moon, and the weather was getting colder, Wei Zhongdao was so cold that his teeth kept chattering, his body shrunk into a ball, and he could still speak.

Only then did Liu Xin turn to Cai Yong and said, "Mr. Bo, it's cold outside, please go to the car to rest, and when they finish cleaning the battlefield, I will divide my troops to escort your family on the road." ”

Cai Yong knelt on the ground with a "plop" and said, "Lord, the old man is guilty!" ”

Liu Xin hurriedly helped him up and said, "Ah, sir, you can't do this. It is human nature to miss your hometown, even Liu is unavoidable, Mr. still remembers my poem, just because he saw the moonlight and aroused homesickness, not to mention that Mr. has been away from home for a long time, what kind of crime is this. It's just that Mr. shouldn't have left secretly, so I was so worried. I invited my husband to come to Jingzhou to help build the academy, and I didn't ask my husband to go to prison, so why do I need to say goodbye. ”

Cai Yong listened to Liu Xin's words, and felt even more embarrassed, and said with shame on his face: "Lord, the old man knows that he is wrong, so he will go back to Xiangyang with the lord." ”

Liu Xin muttered: "Sir, don't be reluctant, if you are really homesick, you go back to Luoyang first, and I will send someone to you after the Spring Festival." ”

Where did Cai Yong leave because he was homesick, but the real reason was inconvenient to tell Liu Xin whether to go to Xiangyang or Luoyang, this question really made Cai Yong, who had a very good face, in a dilemma.

Mrs. Cai's mother and daughter had been paying attention to the actions outside in the carriage, and when they saw Cai Yong hesitating again, Mrs. Cai couldn't bear it, opened the curtain by herself, and said: "Master, if it weren't for the adults to save us, our family wouldn't know what would happen to us, why would you be embarrassed to think about going back to Luoyang." ”

Cai Yong hurriedly found a step down: "Madam, didn't I tell the adults that I wouldn't go to Luoyang?" Why do you have to talk too much? ”

At this time, Dian Wei had already asked people to receive the bodies of the four phantom secret spies together, and said to Liu Xin: "Big brother, what should these four Orions do to protect each other?" ”

The Phantom Secret Spy is an absolute secret, even Tian Feng and Zhao Yun don't know about it, and only Liu Xin, Ma Yun, Fu Xu, Dian Wei and Xu Chu really know about it, so although Dian Wei knows their identities, he still calls them Orion for the sake of secrecy.

Liu Xin looked at these four people, all of them were miserable, and couldn't help but feel sour in his heart, he bowed deeply to them three times, and said to Dian Wei: "These four strong men, seeing that the road is uneven, draw their swords to help each other, sacrifice their lives for righteousness, are true heroes, and they are really models for us." If there are minor children, the state government will be responsible for raising Chengren, and we must not let the heroes shed blood and tears. ”

Dian Wei agreed and hurriedly arranged for someone to transport their bodies away. Liu Xin glanced at He Man who was tied aside, it was this person who killed his four secret spies, and couldn't help but be angry, and said, "Come on, behead this thief chief to show the public." "Poor He Man didn't see what the mother and daughter in the car looked like until he died.

After only a moment's effort, Wei Zhongdao's face was already blue from the cold, and Liu Xin didn't want to make a fuss, so he ordered the soldiers to throw his clothes to him, and said: "Wei Zhongdao, if you want to wear clothes, you can promise the Cai family and retire this family business." Otherwise, you can go back to Luoyang naked. ”

Wei Zhongdao could still speak, but he just nodded again and again, but a trace of hatred flashed in his eyes.

The battlefield was quickly cleaned up, and all Liu Xin wanted to take away were the horses, and as for the captured bandits and those corpses, the local government would deal with them. A flying tiger guard led a majestic snow-green horse over and said regretfully: "Lord, this horse is quite fat, but its legs are lame, do you want to take it back?" ”

One of the guards suddenly shouted: "Your Excellency, you can't take this horse, this horse is not the bandits', it belongs to our caravan." When the guard finished speaking, he burst into tears.

Liu Xin couldn't help but laugh and said, "Isn't it just a lame horse, is it worth being so sad?" I'll just give it back to you. ”

The guard choked up and said, "This is our captain's mount, but unfortunately our captain was killed by thieves in order to save Childe, and even his horse was injured in order to save Childe." ”

Liu Xin said strangely: "It's easy to understand that your captain was killed in order to save people, why was this horse also injured?" ”

The guard wept and recounted what had just happened, and Liu Xin couldn't help but be moved, and said, "This guard captain is a loyal and righteous person, worthy of admiration. Now, here's ten taels of gold, and you can take it to his family. ”

After he took the gold, Liu Xin went to the place where the horse was injured just now to take a closer look, and he was very interested in how the horse was injured. I saw some iron nails scattered on the ground, most of them were head down, many of them had been trampled by men and horses, and fell into the dirt, only a few of the nails were pointed upwards, if the horses' hooves accidentally stepped on it, it was very likely to be punctured, which was an accidental discovery.

Liu Xin saw that there was nothing going on around him, so he took Feihu's personal guard to escort Cai Yong's family back to Xiangyang, and Lian Wei Zhongdao's carriage was taken away and used as Cai Yong's car.

Wei Zhongdao had already put on his clothes again, but his clothes were already in tatters when he was pulling just now, but he couldn't care much about being able to survive. Turning his head, he saw that the guard was still holding ten taels of gold staring at Liu Xin and the direction they were leaving, and he snatched the ingot of gold with his hand, and said, "Look at it, don't hurry up." ”

The guard was shocked to realize that his hands were empty, and said to Wei Zhongdao: "Childe, this gold was given to the family of the captain of the guard by that adult, you ......"

Wei Zhongdao lost face today, and when he saw that this guard dared to contradict him, he roared angrily: "What captain is not a captain, he is just a house slave of my Wei family, he will die if he dies, what's the big deal." I had just froze a lot, and the carriage was gone, so the gold ingots were compensated. ”

All the horses were taken away by Liu Xin as trophies, Wei Zhongdao and his party could only go to Yingchuan on foot, and the Wei family also opened a new shop in Yingchuan, so there was naturally a way to get there, but these guards looked at Wei Zhongdao with disdain in their eyes.

After the group returned to Xiangyang, Cai Yong felt that he had no face to see people, so he stayed at home all day, no longer going out, not even the academy. Liu Xin only thought that he was overly frightened because of this incident, so he invited Zhang Ji to come to the door to treat him.

When the two old friends met, Cai Yong felt even more ashamed, and said to Zhang Ji: "Zhongjing, I won't tell you, I have lost face this time." I thought that my lord had ill intentions towards Yan'er, and I left Xiangyang because I wanted to escape. Who knows that Wei Zhongdao is a villain, alas, it's hard to say. ”

Zhang Ji persuaded: "Don't be sad, since you are back now, it means that everything is over." As I said earlier, the lord is benevolent, righteous and generous, and he is a bright master, and we are fortunate to be able to assist him. Now it's okay, your family business has also retired, what is there to be unhappy, so that love is both beautiful and beautiful, are you still worried that you can't find a good family? ”

Cai Yong shook his head and said, "This girl's vision is high, and now she can't listen to what I say very much." ”

"If Cai Bojiao's daughter doesn't have a high vision, it won't be a joke." Zhang Ji stretched out his hand to put his hand on Cai Yong's pulse, and said, "Bo Jiao, your body is fine, what you need now is to cheer up, cheer up, and your body will naturally be fine." In addition, the academy can't do without you, so you're always embarrassed to watch your mistress busy there all day. ”

Cai Yong looked at Zhang Ji helping him take his pulse, and suddenly remembered one thing, and said, "It's bad, I forgot to tell Wei Zhongdao what you said." ”

Even Zhang Ji, who values medical ethics the most, was unusually this time, behaved very calmly, and said calmly: "Everyone has a fate, and this is also his destiny." Besides, if you tell him what he is, I'm afraid he won't believe it, so let him go. ”

Now, Cai Yan is free again. In the past, Cai Yong put her under house arrest at home because she had a family of in-laws, and she was worried that something would happen to her and Liu Xin and bring shame to the family. Now these are not problems, the relationship with the Wei family has been withdrawn, and he has also recognized the true face of Wei Zhongdao, so naturally there is no need to put his daughter under house arrest at home.

People are sometimes very strange, Cai Yong looked back at Liu Xin, and felt that his image was tall, and the suspicion of him in the past had long disappeared without a trace, and now Liu Xin in his eyes is a young man who can write and martial arts, and has a promising future, if he didn't have a wife and concubine, he would have long been eager to marry his daughter.

Wei Zhongdao came to Luoyang in embarrassment, he did not rush back to Hedong, but stayed in the capital, lingering in the Qinglou Chronicle all day, as if he wanted to vent his anger on the woman. Finally, Wei Zhongdao fell ill again, this disease was more serious than the last time, not only coughing incessantly, but also often coughing up blood. The people of the Wei family panicked and hurriedly sent him back to Hedong.

Wei Lian already knew what happened to his son on the way back to Luoyang, but now seeing his son's haggard face and withered expression, he couldn't help but be angry: "Liu Xin, you deceive people too much, tossing my son like this, I will never let you go!" ”
