After listening to Dr. Chen Liu's introduction, Mr. Hu Zhong seemed to feel much more relaxed. He said to the doctor, "I'm tired now." He followed the doctor into the house.

Entering the hall, Dr. Chen Liu seated the two of them and apologized: "I don't know that the arrival of these two nobles is very unconventional. Please prepare water, wine and a small meal. Please forgive me for being rude."

Mr. Hu Zhong said: "I am short and brown, so it is inconvenient for me to be polite. Doctor, don't blame me. May I ask who is escorting the car?"

Doctor Chen Liu said: "Cai Ze, a scholar in the family."

Mr. Hu Zhong frowned and said, "I rarely hear about this."

Dr. Chen Liu said: "This person from Yan has a strange appearance, strange words, great ambitions and few talents. Every time he talks about trying to mediate the world, he achieves nothing. He first went to Zhao State and did not serve. When he wanted to go to Han and Wei, he met strong men on the way and packed his bags.

Everything is lost, and his life is almost at risk. He is capable of writing and swordsmanship, but he is living in desolation, so he stays at home for the time being. He is only a month old."

While they were talking, the chef brought the food to the table. They thanked each other and the doctor accompanied them.

Mr. Hu Zhong said: "May I ask where Xinli is?"

Dr. Chenliu said: "In the small town of Xinli, when it comes to Chenliu, there are many people living among the beams, although there are no high walls or fortresses."

Mr. Hu Zhong asked: "Did we have any close friendship with Guiyi before?"

Doctor Chen Liu said: "Although Xinli is in the Wei region, there are no officials, but the elders are in charge. The little people may have friendships, but I have little contact with them."

Mr. Hu Zhong said: "Who came up with this plan to take the road to Xinli."

Doctor Chen Liu said: "It is Cai Ze, the retainer."

Mr. Hu Zhong said: "Cai Ze? He actually knows the geography of Daliang?"

Dr. Chen Liu said: "He is a very strange man. His words are sparse but rough but not sparse."

Mr. Hu Zhong said: "He was entrusted with the task of keeping food for a few months after coming home, which shows that he is deeply trusted by the doctor."

Dr. Chen Liu said: "In times of war, the responsibility of guarding grain and escorting trucks is the most important. It cannot be done without both civil and military skills. Although this man is unattractive in appearance and exaggerated, he is not without talent. He came up with his plan when he took the road to Xinli. At that time, Ziliang

We were ready to load the carriage, but suddenly we heard that the Lord was not satisfied. He wanted to stop for a while, but there was no further information, so he had to start the carriage according to the order. Unexpectedly, the South Pass had been broken, and the troops were approaching. Although Chenliu was a small town, there were more than ten thousand households, and he had a lot of grain reserves.

One hundred thousand stones. If the Qin people arrive, they will not be taken lightly, so they must try their best to defend and cannot send more people and chariots to protect them. Therefore, they only send Cai Ze and ten other people to escort one cart of grain and one cart of vegetables into the city; if they are insufficient, they can wait

The troops will be transported later. His people plan to move out of new areas, are familiar with the geography, and have no obstacles in their way."

After listening to Dr. Chen Liu's arrangement, Mr. Hu Zhong immediately understood that Cai Ze was going to be sacrificed. But he couldn't tell the truth, so he pondered for a moment and said: "Doctor, please find two sets of Qingjin, and prepare a set of chariots. I will wait for you for a while and go there."

Xinli.”

Doctor Chen Liu asked: "Your Excellency, you want to go to Xinli?"

Mr. Hu Zhong said: "Qifeng was lost, does the doctor know?"

Dr. Chen Liu said: "When the fire breaks out in the West, I dare to unblock it!"

Mr. Hu Zhong said: "Exactly. Although the grain carts can avoid the fire of war by turning through Xinli, Xinli is not the same as the old, so it is difficult to know the confidants. Cai Ze, a newcomer, should not be careless. Daliang City is closed, and it may be difficult for grain carts to enter the city, so it is necessary to

We will find another way. Therefore, we will leave under the starry night and discuss everything. If you are going alone, you may not be able to support yourself alone, so please ask the doctor to bring some of his capable confidants to accompany you."

Doctor Chen Liu asked: "When will you get up?"

Mr. Hu Zhong said: "The earlier the better!"

Under the arrangement of Mr. Hu Zhong, Mang Yin, Mr. Hu Zhong and Dr. Chen Liu dressed up in Qingjin and drove ahead; Chen Liuwei stayed behind to guard Chenliu and deployed the city defense; Dr. Chen Liu, Chen Liuwei and Chen Liu were responsible for the work respectively.

The three family chiefs and the following selected their capable retainers, took three cars, headed by the foreman, and set off at dawn and continued to Xinli. After waiting for everything, when Mang Yin and others took the car out of the city, dawn had broken in the east and the moon was setting in the west.

Xinli is actually only thirty miles away from Chenliu, and it can be reached in a short drive. But after they arrived at Xinli, they all encountered difficulties: none of them knew where Cai Ze and his party would end up.

There is no city wall guarding Xinli. The powerful people in the town built high-walled courtyards, and the courtyards were surrounded by houses of various sizes. The buildings in the entire town were obviously not planned uniformly, and the so-called "roads" were winding and winding.

, strictly speaking, it is just the open space between buildings.

When the three of them saw this situation, they all frowned. The alley in the middle of the town was obviously inaccessible to cars, so Cai Ze and others could only stay outside. Mr. Huzhong drove slowly around the town. Because it was just daybreak, it was so fashionable.

No one went out, and all the doors around the city were closed, and it was impossible to find anyone to inquire. Mr. Hu Zhong said: "Cai Qing and his party of ten people and two cars cannot be accommodated by a small household, and they must live in a large courtyard. Let's take a look.

"Look for the courtyard and ask." I drove around the city for the second time. I saw several high-walled courtyards and knocked on the door to ask. Either no one opened the door for a long time, or the answer after opening the door was "I don't know." At this time, the sky was getting brighter.

Pedestrians gradually began to appear, and when they saw the bicycle patrolling back and forth, they all looked at it with vigilance. Mr. Hu Zhong said: "It seems to be very polite." Before the other two people understood what it meant, Mr. Hu Zhong shouted loudly: "Chen

Stay with Cai Qing~, stay with Cai Qing~!" After another half circle, a broken gong sound finally came: "Who is shouting?"

Mr. Hu Zhong shouted again: "Where is Cai Qing? The doctor is here, please come out and meet me!"

The voice said: "Wait!"

Mr. Hu Zhong stopped the car at an intersection, and the three of them got out of the car and waited. After a long time, a man walked out from the winding alleys in the city. His hair was disheveled, and a double-layered robe hung crookedly on his body.

His legs were stooped, his beard was unkempt, and his face was full of wrinkles. He looked an unknown age. When he got to the car, he looked at Dr. Chen Liu with sideways eyes, bowed loosely, and said, "What are you doing, doctor?"

Dr. Chen Liu responded dumbfounded and asked, "Where are all my troops? The alley is so narrow, how can a large vehicle get in, and where can the vehicle park?"

Cai Ze said carelessly: "It's a car, it's a car."

Doctor Chen Liu was shocked and said: "Jia is dead? What do you mean? I ordered you to be sent to Daliang, are you dead?"

Cai Zedao: "The Qin army is approaching the city. How can we send grain trucks into the city? We have no choice but to fight."

Dr. Chen Liu was furious and wanted to take the horse from Mr. Hu Zhong's hand and beat him. Mr. Hu Zhong stopped him and said: "Don't be angry for now, just listen to what he says."

Cai Zedao: "It doesn't matter if the merchants outside the city go and the merchants inside the city come back! This gentleman seems to understand the situation? I dare to ask for his honorific name."

Dr. Chen Liu shouted in a low voice: "This eldest son of the Mang family, Mr. Hu Zhong of the Mang family, please don't be rude."

Cai Zedao: "I am a retainer of Dr. Chenliu, not a retainer of the Mang clan. I was ordered by the master of the family to send grain to Daliang to pay for the Mang clan, but I dare not make friends with foreign surnames."

Dr. Chen Liu's face turned pale and he didn't know what to say. Mang Yin came to the rescue and said: "The king is virtuous and the minister is loyal, which is the style of ancient celebrities. Mang Yin respects him!"

Cai Zedao: "I don't dare. Mang sent his eldest son here. Could it be that he wants to hand over his son here and send him to the city personally? I don't dare to do it because I don't hear the king's order."

Mr. Hu Zhong said: "That's not true. The head of the family was afraid that Chen Liu would miss something in sending food, so he specially ordered his eldest son to go out of the city to help. Unexpectedly, Xian Si Shi had already been settled properly. May I ask Xian Si Shi, where do you want to go now?"

Cai Zedao: "Of course we will enter Daliang City."

Doctor Chen Liu asked: "Where are the people under my command?"

Cai Zedao: "It's right in the city. Your Majesty, do you want to see it?"

Dr. Chen Liu said, "Breathe it out."

Cai Ze said: "Wait for a moment." Then he walked into the alley with two bow-legged legs, clapping his hands rhythmically as he walked. When he turned back, he was followed by a group of short-brown people. Although the group of people were short-brown,

But he was very capable, which made the man in front of him look more and more slovenly and wretched.

Cai Ze led the group of people to the car and said: "Everyone is here, not one is missing. We will go back as soon as we finish tonight. The Lord has important business, so we can take him back here. We will only send someone in the evening."

Just drive a carriage."

Dr. Chen Liu said: "What do I want all of these people to do? They all stay here and return as soon as the work is done."
