"In the fifth year of Zhongping of Emperor Ling of the Han Empire, in the first year of Emperor Guangxi, His Majesty Ling of the Han Empire passed away. General He Jin was in charge of the government affairs, and Prince Liu Bian ascended the throne to the throne of the Han Empire. The Shao Emperor pardoned the world and granted all ministers."——"Biographies of the Three Kingdoms"

The new emperor's ascension to the throne and the funeral of the late emperor was naturally extremely grand, and the entire imperial capital became extremely lively because of these two things. Especially in winter, the streets and alleys of the imperial capital were first decorated with lights and then the city was covered with mourning. Both the people and officials and nobles were busy, as if they were the New Year. With the support of He Jin and Zhang Rang, the young emperor of the Han Dynasty successfully ascended the throne and became the emperor of the Han Empire. The whole process was smooth and without any turbulence.

It was not until His Majesty the Young Emperor of Han who had just ascended the throne accepted the worship of all civil and military officials that He Jin was relieved. In his opinion, as long as his nephew Liu Bing ascended the throne and became the emperor, then half of the whole world would be surnamed He. Thinking of the legend of the Dou family's prosperity in the history of the empire, He Jin couldn't help but be fascinated. However, when he was idle, he always remembered what Zhang Rang said in his ears, "The general should be in charge of the power of the world, and should be admired by all people, but some people probably just regard the general as their defeated general..."

Whenever He Jin thinks of the painful failure under Xiangcheng that year, he can't help but grit his teeth. It was his most shameful defeat since he became an imperial general. The 500,000 elite army of the empire was killed by the Yellow Turban Army, which was mostly old, weak and disabled. Whenever He Jin thinks of the young man standing under the banner of the "Yellow Turban King", he wants to swallow it alive. "I am the general of the world's soldiers and horses above ten thousand people! There is absolutely no stain in my life!"

Just as General He Jin was in a state of ups and downs, the root cause that made him restless, Lord Qin Yang, the Musang of Hanzhong, was visiting Cai Yong's mansion, chatting and laughing.

The late emperor passed away and the young emperor ascended the throne to the world. Of course, there was Cai Yong who was held in the heavenly prison. However, the Cai Mansion is now much colder. Although Cai Yong is no longer a sinner of the empire, he is no longer an important official of the empire at this time, and his skills are all dispersed in the Golden Palace. An old man who lost his power naturally has no attraction to the officials of the empire. Their attention has long been moved to the mansion of General He Jin. These officials would rather flatter the guards in front of the general's mansion than to go to the home of this old man who had just been released from prison to find bad luck.

At the invitation of Cai Yan, Qin Yang, who was almost in the same situation as Cai Yong, was still under house arrest in the imperial capital, was the first to come to Cai Yong's mansion. When Cai Yong knew that Qin Yang was the first to speak out in the Golden Palace for the crimes of the Ten Eternal Assistants in the Golden Palace after he was convicted, and beat Zhang Rang, he immediately looked at Qin Yang with a different eye and greeted him in person.

"Mr. Cai personally welcomes you, but it's a shame to the younger generation." Qin Yang bowed to Cai Yong with a smile on his face.

In fact, he didn't care about Cai Yong's release from prison. It's just that when Cai Yan sent someone to send a visit, Qin Yang was bored, so he brought Guan Hai and a group of guards to Cai Yong's mansion. Recently, Qin Yang always felt restless. Although the secret whistles of He Jin and Zhang Rang Sect around him had been reduced a lot, he still tried to avoid going out. Since Emperor Ling of Han passed away, Qin Yang suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of panic. It was a panic after losing control of the historical process, which made Qin Yang, who was originally confident and in control, feel deeply worried.

"Haha, what did Lord Qin say? I am now indifferent to officials. It is my great honor to be respectful to Lord Qin. It is my great honor to be willing to come to the humble house with a noble character." Although Cai Yong said politely, the loneliness in his words was very obvious.

Qin Yang then discovered that after the heavy snow had just begun to clear, the footprints in front of Cai Yong's mansion were sparse. The magnificent mansion formed a sharp contrast with the lonely and deserted scene. A ray of north wind blew, and the front of Cai's mansion seemed extremely desolate.

Qin Yang sighed faintly: "Mr. Cai should not take it to his heart if he has a warm and warm relationship. People live for a hundred years but only seek happiness. Some things are better to be open to. "

Hearing Qin Yang's sigh, Cai Yong couldn't help but be stunned. Unexpectedly, Qin Yang was in his twenties and could speak such vicissitudes of life, as if he had seen through the coldness of the world. He couldn't help but look at Qin Yang again in his heart.

"Father, Brother Qin. The north wind is very tight outside, so let's go to the hall to talk." Cai Yan smiled and interrupted the two of them and said. When Qin Yang was under strict supervision, all the officials in the imperial capital were afraid that they would be avoided. Cai Yan repeatedly visited Qin Yang, who was almost secluded despite the opposition of his tribe. Over time, she and Qin Yang had become friends and became brothers and sisters.

"Oh! Yes, yes, what Yan'er said is very true! I, Cai Yong, neglected the distinguished guest. Please come from Lord Qin..." Cai Yong smiled, glanced at his daughter, and suddenly said.

Qin Yang nodded with a smile, and followed Guan Hai and others to the inner gate of Cai Yong and his daughter. Just as the few people stepped into the gate of the mansion, suddenly there was a sound of horse hooves coming from afar. Before the people arrived, they arrived first. "Are Master Cai and Master Qin in front? Wait for Cao..."

Cao Cao?! Qin Yang and Cai Yong turned their heads in surprise, but found that three fast horses were galloping on the road in front of the mansion. The person on the horse was Cao Cao, Cao Hong and Xiahou Dun. The three of them began to speed up when they saw Cai Yong and Qin Yang from afar. Seeing that several people were about to enter the mansion, Cao Cao hurriedly shouted.

With a "sigh", the war horse under Cao Cao's crotch neighed a long time, and he sniffed and stood firm under the steps in front of the Cai Mansion. Cao Cao's face was rosy, and he threw away the reins and jumped off the horse and exhaled a breath of white breath. He walked up the steps with a smile and clasped his fists at Cai Yong and Qin Yang and said, "Cao Cao has seen Lord Cai, Lord Qin. Yesterday, Cao heard that Lord Cai returned and did not dare to come rashly. He only waited for today to come. Please do not blame Lord Cai."

"You are polite, Lord Cao..." Cai Yong smiled and bowed his head to return the tribute. But the moment he lowered his head, Qin Yang saw a look of solemnity and doubt in Cai Yong's eyes.

"Haha, Cao was reckless just now, apologized to you first." Cao Cao spoke to Qin Yang this time, and Qin Yang laughed as a gift. However, he drew a big question mark in his heart. "It seems that Cai Yong asked Cai Yan to come to him, it must be a problem. But Cao Cao seemed to come uninvited? Cao Cao is now a celebrity under He Jin. In this way, can Cai Yong and He Jin and others..."

While thinking, Qin Yang walked into the hall with Cai Yong and Cao Cao. Guan Hai, Cao Hong, Xiahou Dun and others were also allowed to sit in the side hall by Cai Mao. Cao Hong and Guan Hai were very familiar with each other and chatted casually. Xiahou Dun looked arrogant and sat there with long hair spread out and straight as if a javelin was not spoken. Cai Mao, who was sitting by the side, also said a few words to Xiahou Dun and got an answer. After drinking tea and going to Guan Hai, he started chatting.

Cai Yong sat in the main seat in the hall. Although Cai Yan was a woman, she was not as famous as a woman, and she also sat by the side. After a few casual greetings and praised each other, the atmosphere gradually fell into silence. Qin Yang saw Cai Yong and his daughter talking about it, and knew that it was probably because Cao Cao was present and there was something hard to say. Then he smiled and said: "Mr. Cao has been in charge of the general recently and has a good official career."

"Haha, why did Lord Qin say this? Cao was loyal to the Han Empire. Even if he was slightly promoted, it would be appreciated by His Majesty. The empire's reward..." Cao Cao smiled and said lightly.

Qin Yang's eyebrows moved slightly, and he heard something in Cao Cao's words, and he pretended to be hesitant and said, "Oh? Is it like I feel a little disrespectful to Lord He after hearing what Lord Cao said..."

Cao Cao curled his lips and said in a low voice: "Mr. Qin, Lord. Cai, we are all wise people. I want to ask Lord. You also fought with Lord He under Xiangcheng. I wonder what Lord. Qin thinks about He Jin?"

When Cao Cao heard the Battle of Xiangcheng, Cai Yong and Cai Yan in the main position changed their expressions and looked at each other. They were not sure whether Cao Cao's words were tempted or had other profound meanings, and they couldn't help but choose to remain silent at the same time.

Qin Yang laughed and said, "Since Lord Cao asked Qin Yang, Qin Yang might as well say it straight. I think that victory and defeat are common military affairs. In the past, Emperor Gaozu was repeatedly defeated by the overlord Xiang Yu, and it can even be said that he was unable to win a hundred battles and almost fell into a place of doom. But in the end, he could conquer the world with one battle. The battle at Haixia was surrounded by enemies and forced to death the overlords of the world. Establishing our Han Empire was not a foundation. How could we make a comment on the defeat of the only battle?"

"Qin Yang!" No one expected that after hearing Qin Yang's words, Cao Cao was furious and slapped the table, pointed at Qin Yang with anger and said, "I, Cao Cao, think you are a hero with the heart of the world. I didn't expect that you would compare my Emperor Gaozu of the Han Empire with He Jin, a dog thief who kills the lord? I, Cao Cao, have nothing to say to you!"
