"etc!"
"Prince Shi, what did you just say?!"
"Are you going to find me a disciple?"
In Jiuyuan City, near the drill ground.
The courtyard where Cai Yong's family, exiled to the north, temporarily resided.
In the courtyard, since the weather was fine in the afternoon, neither too hot nor too cold, many bamboo rolls brought by Cai Yong from Luoyang were laid out and drying everywhere.
It was nearly evening.
In the courtyard.
Xiao Cai Dan and several women were helping to collect the bamboo slips that had been drying for some time and put them into wooden boxes.
Cai Yong, who was sitting in the center of the courtyard, was utterly astonished as he faced the middle-aged official opposite him.
"Your Wuyuan County is so remote that even the scions of noble families mostly prefer martial arts and don't like to pass on their skills. Where would you find a good talent to learn from me?"
"Let me tell you!"
"Back when I was in Luoyang, many talented young people in the Imperial Academy wanted to study under me, but I didn't accept any of them!"
"It's simply because they're too driven by self-interest; they're here for Yong's reputation, not for his knowledge! They're not good students!"
"You lads from Wuyuan County are no different! You don't care about scholarship; you're only here because of my reputation. I won't accept any of you!"
talking.
Cai Yong, with his two tufts of beard trembling slightly, took the initiative to push the gift that Wang Chong had brought back onto the table.
This attitude.
Wang Yun, who had come specifically for this matter, seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly a smile appeared on his face.
"Bojie, you mean you're rejecting everyone who comes for your reputation?!"
"Indeed!"
Although he couldn't understand why Wang Chong suddenly laughed, Cai Yong still nodded emphatically.
"What a coincidence! The person I'm introducing to you this time," Wang Yun said slowly with a smile.
"He's young, handsome, and physically strong. Although he might be a little slow-witted, he's truly dedicated to learning the classics; he's certainly not here for your reputation!"
When asked about his desire to study the classics, Wang Chong hesitated for a moment, but he managed to conceal it.
He continued to laugh.
"even..."
"This person has been kind to you, saving your life on several occasions!"
"In our Wuyuan County, martial arts are highly valued. With this person by your side, you'll be able to stay safe and sound during your time in Wuyuan!"
"Even if some scoundrels were to attempt an attack, they would all be unable to escape his protection!"
After hearing Wang Yun's explanation.
Cai Yong was stunned for a moment, his face showing a blank expression.
"Not only did they not come for my reputation, but they even saved my life multiple times?"
"Wuyuan County actually has such a figure?"
"If he has truly done Yong a favor, and is not here for Yong's reputation, and can even protect Yong, then why shouldn't Yong accept him as a guest?!"
Behind him.
Xiao Cai Dan, who was engrossed in organizing bamboo slips with her mother, heard their conversation and seemed to remember something. Her eyes lit up, and she looked up towards the courtyard gate.
Wang Yun's smile grew even wider.
He pushed the money on the stone table back to Cai Yong.
Then, he turned his head slightly and looked out of the courtyard, calling out softly.
"Come!"
"Zijing, bring Fengxian in!"
"Since Bojie has agreed, let's show him his new disciple!"
As his voice faded away.
Qian Zhao and Cheng Lian then escorted Lü Bu, whose expression was inexplicably complex, one in front of the other, and led him inside.
The moment Lu Bu appeared.
Xiao Cai Dan, who was squatting at the door arranging bamboo slips, showed an increasingly happy expression on his face.
"etc!"
"Isn't this the eldest son of Lu Zizhi's family?!"
Cai Yong, sitting opposite Wang Yun, was stunned for a moment, his face full of astonishment.
Immediately afterward, seeing Lu Bu's fierce and unyielding demeanor, and his complete lack of interest in classical texts, Cai Yong turned his gaze to Wang Yun opposite him.
He moved his gaze between Wang Yun and Lü Bu.
I looked at it again and again.
The prince remained calm and composed, showing no sign of guilt whatsoever.
Lu Bu, who was being ushered in, looked extremely unwilling. It was more like he was being held hostage than being surrounded. He certainly wasn't there for his reputation, which perfectly matched his earlier request.
For a moment, Cai Yong was so angry that he laughed.
"Prince Teacher".
"You mean you want to take this Lü Bu as your disciple?!"
Wang Yun remained calm and nodded slightly.
"Indeed!"
Then, he turned his gaze to Cai Bozui and chuckled.
A gentleman's word is as good as his bond.
"This young man from the Lü family has saved you time and again, and personally killed the bandits. He has truly done you a great favor, Cai Bojie."
"Could it be that you, Cai Bojie, are going to back out?"
Faced with Wang Yun's questioning.
Cai Yong, or Cai Bojie, looked grim. He took a deep breath, his chest heaving.
And behind him.
The group of family members saw that Lü Bu, who had saved them time and time again, was incredibly strong and powerful, probably equivalent to dozens of Cai Yongs, and was more than capable of protecting them.
After looking him up and down again, he saw that Lü Bu was handsome and tall, and that he would be a respectable person to serve as a disciple. He was very pleased.
Under the moon and as the sun rises, time flows on.
Another morning.
.
Sparrows flew around in the courtyard, and in the corner, their nests were becoming more and more complete.
Busy building his own caravan and accumulating funds for his future rebellion, Lü Ping had already gone out early with Li Bo, who had come to find him, heading towards the caravan from Zhongshan County that Li Bo had mentioned.
He completely disregarded Lü Bu, who had just become Cai Yong's disciple, and instead gave him some earnest advice, urging him to study the classics diligently under Cai Yong's guidance so that he could become a scholar in the future.
He then noticed that Lü Ping had gone out.
Lu Bu, who had arranged to study the classics at Cai Yong's temporary residence in the afternoon, waited until his father had gone far away before heading towards the military camp outside the city.
He was seething with anger, but had nowhere to vent it!
The two of them left the courtyard one after the other.
The sun was at its zenith.
Lu Ping was the first to arrive at the caravan's encampment that Uncle Li had mentioned.
Clumps of horses were everywhere.
Groups of wandering knights stood idly by, shouting and cursing.
Hearing the Youji accent around him and seeing the Youji men everywhere, Lü Ping knew that he had come to the right place and that his caravan had found a home!
Judging from this, it seems that this really is the angel investor that Liu Bei encountered when he started his career!
Li Bo seemed quite familiar with this place. He led Lü Ping with practiced ease, bypassing the horses and wandering knights, and heading towards the innermost part.
The two stood directly outside a small house with an open door.
No knocking has been made yet.
The two men from Jizhou sitting in the room stopped talking and looked up at Lü Ping and his companion.
The old man, who looked somewhat familiar and had recently been running errands for another caravan, stood at the door with a middle-aged man wearing a bronze seal and yellow ribbon around his waist.
One of the middle-aged men, dressed in a long robe and looking rather refined, subconsciously looked at Uncle Li.
"Who is this?"
There was no need for Lü Ping to speak.
Uncle Li, who always had a hunched back, straightened up and spoke with a strong voice.
"Recently, Lü Ping, Lü Zizhi, has gained considerable fame in the city for his fierce and valiant deeds, including charging into battle against dozens of Xianbei and routing hundreds of bandits!"
"Did you know that?!"
