After Zhang Yan came out of Mi Fang's room, he found Chen Deng again and said bluntly: "I'm going to Tancheng tomorrow, and I'll leave it to you here." ”

When Chen Deng heard this, he was surprised, but in an instant, he regained his composure and said to Zhang Yan: "It's okay." When Brother Mingda went, he could just visit Mi Zhu, as long as the relationship with him was good, there would be no need to worry about money in the future. In addition, Brother Mingda also needs to visit someone in Tancheng, if he can become friends with this person, then if he wants to replace Tao Yuanjun in the future, he will not encounter too much resistance. ”

"Who is this man?"

"This person's surname is Zang Mingba, the word is high, and he is a person from Hua County, Taishan County. This person was born in the army, and brave and good at fighting, every time there is a war, Zang Ba is the first soldier, the first to bear the brunt, and won a lot of heads, and every time he gets a reward, he gives it all to his subordinates, and is deeply loved by his subordinates. ”

Later, Tao Yuanjun appointed him as the commander of the cavalry, responsible for the crusade against Taishan Kou, Zang Ba won more with less, and successively defeated Wu Dun, Sun Guan, Yin Li, Chang Xuan, Sun Kang and other Taishan Kou. Subsequently, Zang Ba went to the thief camp alone and persuaded Wu Dun, Sun Guan, Yin Li, Chang Xuan, Sun Kang and others to surrender. These people were convinced by Zang Ba, so they all led the people to surrender and took Zang Ba as the commander. As a result, Zang Ba then collected troops in Xuzhou, and stationed troops in the Kaiyang area. ”

However, Zang Ba is nominally a cavalry lieutenant under the Tao Envoy King's account, but in fact he is in a league of his own. But fortunately, Zang Ba didn't have any intentions, otherwise, with the soldiers and horses in his hands, he would definitely turn Xuzhou upside down. The reason why Cao Cao chose Pengcheng as a breakthrough this time was also because of the relationship between Kaiyang and Zangba's defense. ”

After listening to Chen Deng's statement, Zhang Yan said: "In this way, I really want to get to know Zang Ba. On this trip to Tancheng, apart from Zang Ba, is there anyone else I need to visit? ”

Chen Deng thought for a moment, and then said slowly: "There is another person, please ask Brother Mingda to visit." ”

"Who?"

"It's my father."

"Since it's Ling Zun, then I should pay a visit."

After Chen Deng heard this, he frowned, and his face became a little ugly, as if he had something on his mind.

After Zhang Yan saw it, he hurriedly asked, "Yuanlong, what's wrong with you?" ”

"I didn't ...... It's nothing, I'll write a letter tonight, and I'll hand it over to Brother Mingda early tomorrow morning, and I ask Brother Mingda to hand it over to my father in person. ”

"Please rest assured, Brother Yuanlong, I will definitely hand over the letter to Ling Zun with my own hands."

Early the next morning, Zhang Yan packed everything up and entrusted everything in Pengcheng to Chen Deng.

Afterwards, Zhang Yan went straight to Mi Fang's room, wanting to tell Mi Fang that he was going to Tancheng today.

He walked to Mi Fang's door, and saw that the door was hidden, and through the crack, he saw what was inside. Mi Zhen was holding a bowl of hot soup and was serving Mi Fang by the bedside.

He raised his hand, knocked on the door, and shouted inside, "Brother Mi." ”

Mi Fang and Mi Zhen heard the voice, and looked at the door at the same time, when Mi Zhen saw Zhang Yan appear at the door, she immediately straightened her face and asked coldly, "What are you doing here?" ”

"Third sister, how do you speak? In front of adults, don't make mistakes! Mi Fang reprimanded.

Mi Zhen was unhappy in her heart, stood aside, no longer spoken, but glared at Zhang Yan with a pair of fierce eyes. If gaze can kill, then Zhang Yan has already been killed by Mi Zhen I don't know how many times.

Mi Fang hurriedly said: "Lord Zhang, the housekeeper is still young and doesn't know how to be sophisticated, so please don't take it to heart." Adults, please come in! ”

Zhang Yan raised his legs and stepped into the room, and said with a smile: "It's okay." I came here to inform Brother Mi that I am ready to leave today and go to Tancheng. ”

"That's great. The sister has been away from home for many days, lest her brother be worried, so she happened to go to Tancheng with the adults, and she had a good response along the way! Mi Fang rejoiced.

"Second brother, aren't you going back together?" Mi Zhen asked suddenly.

Mi Fang said: "I have injuries on my body and can't get out of bed, how can I withstand this kind of bump?" Third sister, it just so happens that the adult is going to Tancheng, so you go back with him, and I can rest assured that the adult will take care of you. ”

"What? Let me go back with him? I'm not going to do it! Mi Zhen immediately retorted.

Mi Fang had a gloomy face and reprimanded in a low voice: "Third sister, this is not our home, so you can't mess around here." ”

"Second brother, it's not that I'm messing around, but if I go back with him, he will definitely bully me along the way, I'd rather go back by myself."

"Now the ground in Xuzhou is not very flat, there are a lot of displaced people on the road, there are more bandits and bandits along the way, you are a girl, you have never been far away, and you don't even know the way back to Tancheng, how can you let me rest assured that you go back alone? In case you encounter any danger on the road, how do you ask me to explain to my eldest brother? ”

Mi Zhen frowned, everything Mi Fang said was the truth, she really didn't know how to go back to Tancheng.

Zhang Yan interjected: "Miss Mi, I wonder if there is any misunderstanding between us......

"Misunderstanding? Do you think it's as simple as a misunderstanding between us? You treated me like that in the canyon that day, and I almost froze to death, this is murder, not a misunderstanding! Mi Zhen's temper came up, and she interrupted Zhang Yan's words when she opened her mouth.

Zhang Yan smiled bitterly, he definitely didn't expect Mi Zhen to think like this.

"Presumptuous!" Seeing this, Mi Fang hurriedly reprimanded.

"Second brother, don't blame me, you ask him, when he was in the canyon, how did he treat me, on such a cold day, he actually left me alone in the ice and snow and didn't ask, isn't this murder?"

After hearing this, Zhang Yan felt that Mi Zhen was a little unreasonable, and said very angrily: "Eh...... I did something wrong that day, and I ask Miss Mi to forgive me. But, then again, it seems that I saved Miss Mi from the thief leader, right? Besides, I also said at the time, you want to rest there for the night, and you don't go into the warm cave, but stand alone in the ice and snow, which doesn't seem to have anything to do with me, right? Also, when I saw that you were fainted from the cold, I immediately carried you to the cave and lit a bonfire to keep warm, and took off my thick clothes to put on you, and then took you back to Pengcheng without stopping, and ordered people to serve you, and you didn't thank me, and even said that I was going to murder you? If I really wanted to murder you, would you still stand here in good shape? ”

After some rebuttal, Mi Zhen was dumbfounded and speechless. After all, Zhang Yan saved her life, she didn't go grateful, but came to Zhang Yan for trouble, which is reasonable, and it really doesn't make sense.

Mi Fang saw that Mi Zhen was speechless when Zhang Yan refuted, and thought to herself: "My messy sister, someone can finally subdue you......"

However, in her heart, Mi Fang still doesn't want her sister to be hurt, even if it's verbal. So, he hurriedly interjected: "Master Zhang, my sister is not sensible, don't be like her, please calm your anger." ”

Zhang Yan let out a sigh of relief and shook his head helplessly, Mi Zhen's appearance and temper are inversely proportional!

After listening to the persuasion and having a full meal, Zhang Yan calmed his heart a little, then regained his calm, and said to Mi Fang straightforwardly: "At three o'clock in the hour, I will set off on time at the city gate, if Miss Mi really wants to go back to Tancheng, I will escort her all the way to protect her safety." After this time, if Miss Mi hasn't shown up, then I'll leave by myself. ”

As soon as the words fell, Zhang Yan turned around and walked out of the room without looking back.

"Adults walk slowly, forgive me for not being able to send it far."

"Not necessarily!"

Mi Fang could see that Zhang Yan was angry. After he waited for Zhang Yan to leave, he said to Mi Zhen: "Third sister, third sister, you are so ignorant!" ”

"Second brother, why are you complaining about me, why didn't you react at all when he treated me like that just now?" Mi Zhen retorted.

"It's your fault, how do you make me react? Fortunately, Lord Zhang doesn't care about you in the face of the eldest brother, otherwise, you will have good fruit to eat. ”

"Second brother, I'm ......"

"Don't say anything, you go and get ready, and then rush to the city gate as soon as possible and go back to Tancheng with Master Zhang. After I went back, I told my eldest brother by the way, and said that my injuries had not healed and I could not travel far, and I would go back after recovering from my injuries here. ”

"Second brother, do you really want to go back with him?"

"It's okay if you don't go back, just stay here, stay by my side every day, and see him sooner or later. Do you say it's better for you to stay away from here, or better to stay here? ”

"Then I'll go back."

At three o'clock, Zhang Yan rode a horse and stood at the gate of the city, at this time he had taken off his armor and changed into a strong suit, his face was cold, his brows were frowned, and he waited quietly.

Beside Zhang Yan, there was also a carriage parked, which was specially prepared for Mi Zhen, and it was covered with thick bedding, so that people would not be too bumpy when they sat in. In addition, Zhang Yan also brought 500 gold, and when he was about to go to Pengcheng, he would buy some gifts and go to visit Mi Zhu, Zang Ba and Chen Deng's father, Chen Qi.

"Brother Mingda, the hour has come at three o'clock, and Miss Mi has not appeared yet, so it seems that she will not come." Chen Deng stood beside Zhang Yan, looked around, and said to Zhang Yan.

Zhang Yan sighed lightly, and there was a trace of loneliness in his heart.

"In that case, I will go to Tancheng alone, Brother Yuanlong, everything in Pengcheng will be handed over to you. In three or five days, or seven or eight days, I will come back from Tancheng. ”

"Brother Mingda, although you can leave with confidence, everything in Pengcheng will be taken care of by me." Chen Deng suddenly escaped from his arms and handed it to Zhang Yan, "This is a letter I wrote to my father, and Brother Lao Mingda personally handed it over to my father." ”

Zhang Yan took the letter from Chen Deng's hand, stuffed it directly into his arms, and arched his hand: "Brother Yuanlong, don't worry, I will leave here." ”

He clamped the horse's belly between his legs, and with a shout of "driving", the horse under the seat raised its front hooves and stepped out, and the carriage next to him also followed, slowly moving.

"Wait a minute...... Wait a minute......"

At this moment, a loud shout suddenly came from behind Zhang Yan, he looked back, but saw a man with clear eyebrows running out of the city gate, and when he got closer, this man turned out to be Mi Zhen dressed up.
