One night I slept in my boudoir,
After waking up,
Looking at the love poem on the window sill,
Cai Wenji felt lost.
"I only see love poems and no one. This kind of longing gnaws at my heart day and night. It's really unbearable!”
Cai Wenji sighed and told Cai Yong about it. She then went to Wang Yun's house next door to find her good sister Diao Chan to relieve her boredom.
"Eh? Why is my sister here? Could it be that there's another new poem that you want to tell me?”Diao Chan blinked her beautiful big eyes and revealed a charming smile.
"Sigh, there's no such thing as a new poem when a good man joins the army!”
"Look at elder sister's disappointed face, could it be that it's still because of that genius called Sun Ce?”Diao Chan was puzzled.
"Other than him, who else can make sister worry so much?”
Diao Chan thought about it and comforted her." Sister, he's just a talented person who can compose poems. We're far from him. It's fine if we don't miss him!" There were many talented people in Luoyang. Even if they were not as talented as that person, as long as they were sincere to her, she would still be happy for the rest of her life.”
"However, there's probably no other person in history who has such outstanding literary talent and martial arts that can stabilize the country! If she missed him, she would miss her entire life!”Cai Yan said and suddenly shed tears.
"Sister, isn't he just a talented scholar?" Diao Chan was stunned. Why is there a martial strategy?"
"Didn't little sister hear Lord Situ mention it?" Cai Yan wiped her tears and said. The Xianbei people who have been harassing the northern border for many years have been completely wiped out by our Great Han army! And the one who destroyed the Xianbei people was that Sun Ce from Jiangdong, the Sun Ce whose love poem moved me!”
Diao Chan's beautiful eyes widened in surprise.""No way, sister? Was there really such a strange man in the world? Not only was he talented, but he could also lead troops to war?”
Cai Yan nodded." In the past, I didn't believe it either. But now, the truth is right in front of my eyes. I have no choice but to believe it!" Not only was he capable of leading an army into battle, he was also a good general who was extremely skilled in this field! Otherwise, the Xianbei people that the imperial court had been unable to deal with for many years would not have been wiped out by him in such a short period of time!”
"That's a race! Extinguished just like that?" Diao Chan was so shocked that her mouth was wide open, revealing her cute little tongue.
"That's right. Kill hundreds of thousands of enemies and build the capital temple with their heads. Kill all men, women, old and young to prevent future troubles! He could be said to be ten times more ferocious than Huo Qubing!”
"Such a person will probably be conferred the title of Marquis in the future!”Diao Chan revealed a look of yearning.
"Marquis? The imperial court had issued a decree, and he was conferred the title of Marquis of Jingbian! It was said that the emperor had originally wanted to confer him the title of Marquis Champion, but the ministers had kept persuading him, so he was demoted to Marquis Jingbian!”
Diao Chan's heart immediately felt as if it had been hit by a heavy hammer. The powerful shock simply made her feel dizzy!
Scholar! Good general! The Son of Heaven's favorite, young Marquis!
This was the man that billions of girls yearned to entrust their lives to!
Cai Yan couldn't help but sigh again." That's why he's just a talented scholar. That's fine. Young ladies miss talented scholars. Since ancient times, which woman didn't go through this? I won't think about him anymore after I get married. However, he is both civil and martial, and is extremely talented. How can I forget him?”
Diao Chan looked at the peerless Cai Yan and thought of how cold and arrogant Cai Yan was to the rich young masters. She could not help but say,""Sister is beautiful and peerless. Only a young talent like General Sun is worthy of sister! And for a hero like General Sun, only his sister's talent and looks could complement him! If his sister and he could not marry, it would be a pity!”
When Cai Yan heard her say this, she instantly felt incomparably wronged and extremely bitter in her heart. She could not help but cry out loud," You don't know, but my father intends to betroth me to the Wei family in the east of the river…The Wei family has been thriving since Wei Qing's generation. They have power and influence, and their roots are deep. Although my father is a famous person, he can't help but admire the aristocratic family. The Wei family intends to matchmake this matter. From his intentions, it's most likely not far off.”
"Then what are your plans, Yan 'er?" Diao Chan asked anxiously. Didn't you tell Uncle about your feelings?”
"Since ancient times, marriage has always been decided by the elders. How can I be exempted? Have you forgotten that my father is a famous figure in the scholarly faction? His every word and action strictly abides by the ideals of the scholarly faction, and he will not allow me to have my own opinions on such matters!”Cai Yan's face had an additional trace of disappointment.
At this time, Cai Yan was crying like a pear blossom drenched in rain. Diao Chan's heart was also in turmoil!
"The passionate scholar Sun Lang is actually the same person as the brave and good at fighting General Sun! It would be the greatest regret in her life if she couldn't marry such a talented person! However, if even my sister can't marry Sun Lang, then how can I marry into the Sun family!”
A few days ago, Cai Yan took Sun Ce's poem and appraised it with Diao Chan. As a result, Diao Chan also had a strange feeling towards Sun Ce.
However, compared to talented men, Diao Chan actually preferred heroes who could dominate the battlefield, so she didn't really understand Cai Yan's feelings before.
But now, after the brilliant Sun Ce overlapped with the talented Jiangdong scholar, even Diao Chan couldn't resist Sun Ce's charm and fell for him on the spot!
Especially when he saw Cai Yan crying like rain for Sun Ce, he also felt the same way and wanted to throw himself into his arms even more!
