Cai Yan was overjoyed: "Thank you for your kindness, Father."
"Lord Cai, it's time for us to cross the river by boat!" Chen Ji urged, seeing that Cai Yong was still talking to someone and was not boarding the boat.
"They're here! They're here!"
Cai Yong responded quickly.
Thus, Cai Yan was able to follow her father to the area beyond Yunzhong Pass.
......
Right now.
Three miles outside Luoyang, in a mountain hollow, a rider arrived after Cai Yong and Chen Ji's group. He knelt before a man in the hollow and reported:
"General He, Cui Hao and the others have left with Cai Yong."
A long-bearded man with a cold face, dressed in a black robe, nodded slightly: "It takes a thousand days to train soldiers for one day. I hope that Cui Hao's assassins can successfully assassinate the target and complete the mission."

"If they are caught, under torture, they will only confess that we sent them."
Zhao Zhong said obsequiously.
"Very good, your plan is indeed excellent."
"If Liu Wei is to be assassinated, he'll definitely pretend to be clever and direct his anger towards that bitch He Hui!"
Empress Dowager Dong sneered, "We'll just wait and see the show, and reap the benefits without lifting a finger."
"Your Majesty, where is the hidden piece?"
Zhao Zhong said, "This servant has already arranged for someone to accompany you with the token, as you wish."
"This man is also among the fifty imperial guards."
"Promote both ends simultaneously without interfering with each other."
"I have a feeling that Liu Wei will not be assassinated so easily. This hidden agent only needs to be reminded, there is no need to use him."
