Chapter 71

She could be considered a proper older unmarried woman of this era.

And Cai Zhaoji's marriage had also become the heart-worry of Cai Yong, this old father.

Unable to resolve the bitterness in his heart, Cai Yong had to play the zither every day to try to alleviate it.

And Dong Zhuo, this busy man, had come to visit today.

Cai Yong guessed at once that this scoundrel must have something he needed help with.

Therefore, after sitting down, Cai Yong went straight to the point:

"Speak, what is the matter that would actually make the dignified Chancellor personally condescend to come to this old man's residence?"

"Uh... actually, this isn't a big deal, but I really can't make up my mind, so I wanted to ask you to help with this favor."

Dong Zhuo laughed and rubbed his hands.

If he had any culture, he would have directly helped Gu Yi take a courtesy name.

But the damn point is.

Although Dong Zhuo was literate.

Born on the frontier, he really couldn't be called cultured.

The ink in his belly was just better than nothing.

Fortunately, he knew such a great Confucian scholar as Cai Yong.

As the saying goes.

Having people in the court makes things easier to handle.

This matter is actually the same in the literary world.

With Cai Yong's cultural level, who in the world would dare to say the courtesy name he gave was not good?

"Fine."

"Since it is a favor for you, Dong Zhongying, then this old man naturally cannot refuse."

"However, to be honest, I also have a favor to ask of you."

A flash of cunning crossed Cai Yong's eyes.

In reality.

Even if Dong Zhuo didn't come to find him.

He would also go to the Chancellor's residence to visit Dong Zhuo in the near future.

Since Dong Zhuo came personally today, it would be fine to just let Dong Zhuo help with this favor.

"Scoundrel!"

"Cai Bojie, you old fellow, you aren't going to cheat me, are you?"

Dong Zhuo pretended to be afraid, his body leaning slightly backward.

Seeing Dong Zhuo show this appearance, Cai Yong's face couldn't help but turn black, and he said in a deep voice:

"Bah!"

"You are the dignified Chancellor."

"Relying on this old man, who has no strength to truss a chicken, could I actually harm you?"

"Actually, it's nothing else."

"It's just Zhaoji's marriage."

"You also know that ever since Wei Zhongdao died, no one in all of Luoyang dares to marry Zhaoji."

"I am old, and I don't know when I might suddenly pass away. If I pass away and Zhaoji still isn't married, how will I face her mother, who passed away long ago, in the afterlife!"

Hearing this, the smile on Dong Zhuo's face also subsided.

Cai Zhaoji's marriage had long since become Cai Yong's heart-worry.

Cai Yong wanted to find a reliable young talent to marry Cai Zhaoji off to.

But the problem is.

Let alone aristocratic sons.

Even the commoners and the poor were quite wary of Cai Zhaoji's reputation.

In the Xiliang Army, there were indeed many bachelors.

But... with Cai Zhaoji's weak personality, could she marry this group of killers who only knew how to fight?

That was definitely impossible!

Just as Dong Zhuo was puzzled.

Cai Yong suddenly said:

"Zhongying, I heard you have a young military advisor under your command, seems to be called Gu Yi, right?"

"If Zhaoji were married to him, what do you think?"

"Bang!"

The words fell like a heavy hammer, smashing onto Dong Zhuo's head.

"Good for you, Cai Bojie, I treat you as a close friend, yet you want to snatch my grandson-in-law!?"
