The autumn is deep, the sun is dimming, and nature is fading. Under the clouds and mist in September, the color slowly fades. The peaks are covered with first snow and the plains are covered with thick fog.

Piles of dark gray clouds pressed against the earth low. It was already late autumn, and the endless trees in the forest were bare. The old trees stood gloomy, allowing the brown moss to cover the wrinkles on their bodies. The ruthless autumn stripped off their beautiful clothes, and they had to stand there withered and bare.

Gao Fei led 100,000 soldiers and civilians to finally arrive in Youzhou. After more than 20 days of long journey, the group became very tired. The late autumn season made everything depressed. The closer you are to Youzhou, the cooler the weather, which brought unexpected difficulties to these people who were still wearing thin summer clothes.

The sun has been obscured by the low-hanging broken clouds that are moving forward, and a large thick light gray rain clouds are pouring over the western horizon. Not far away, a drifting rain has poured into the fields and the woods. The moist and rainy air blows from the rain clouds. The rain clouds are occasionally cut open by lightning, and the rumbling thunder is increasingly mixed with the rumbling of the train. The rain clouds are getting closer and closer, and the drifting raindrops are blowing by the wind.

Before the clouds filled the sky, the ground was already very dark, and the extremely bright sunny noon suddenly turned into night. The wind carried the rain stars, as if looking for something on the ground, bumping around the east and west. A red flash in the distance to the north, as if it had opened a piece of black cloud, revealing a large piece of blood.

Lightning tear apart the thick dark clouds, and after the huge thunder rolled through the low clouds, heavy rain overwhelmed the sky and crushed. The autumn rain hit their faces, making people feel a little wet and cool.

It has not rained in the entire northern land for several months. The autumn rain fell like a covered in the sky, as if it was about to thoroughly irrigate the cracked land. In just a short while, there was water on the ground.

"How far is it to Fanyang?" Gao Fei was already wet and asked Jia Xu around him casually.

Jia Xu said: "Less than twenty miles away, Gao Lin has already brought a few people to Fanyang to inform Zhang He, and he will bring people to welcome the lord in a while."

Gao Fei looked back at the long line, the people, the army, and the animals were all walking on the muddy road. Mules and horses were pulling vehicles full of goods, and war horses were pulling some carriages that could shelter from the wind and rain. Everyone was walking hard in the heavy rain.

"Military advisor, I'll go back and take a look. If Zhang He wants to bring people, let him help him take the people away immediately." Gao Fei shouted at Jia Xu.

As soon as he finished speaking, Gao Fei rode his horse back and shouted loudly to the crowd behind him: "Youzhou is ahead. Everyone should work harder and persevere. After arriving in Youzhou, they will be able to have a good sleep and have a good meal."

Gao Fei shouted loudly to cheer everyone up while riding his horse backwards. When passing some soldiers, he could always give them a kind smile, which made the soldiers' hearts ignite warm enthusiasm and help to lead the people to continue moving forward.

With a loud "Ka" sound, a carriage that Gao Fei had just passed broke and broke. The shaft and the horses broke away. The entire carriage overturned to the ground, and a "ah" scream from the woman came from the carriage.

"My father, please go to the vehicle to get a piece of clothes for your daughter. The clothes on your daughter were scratched, so you can't see anyone when you go out." Cai Yan's soothing and gentle voice sounded in the carriage.

Cai Yong responded, bowed to Gao Fei before leaving.

"General Gao, what happened just now was a coincidence. Please don't care about it. The little woman was lucky enough to be taken care of by the general along the way. She was already satisfied. Please don't be upset about this matter." Cai Yan's voice was full of intellectual beauty. She was knowledgeable and polite. She did not blame Gao Fei. She was afraid that her father would know about this. After all, she was still a girl who was waiting for the word. If this matter was spread, she would probably have no shame to see anyone in the future.

Gao Fei didn't care at all. For him, ancient women paid attention to the difference between men and women. Out of politeness, he felt that his behavior just now offended Cai Yan. What made him even more worried was that Cai Yan's father was Cai Yong, a well-known famous scholar in the world. He was unwilling to offend famous scholars because he also wanted to use such famous scholars to attract more talents.

"Oh, okay, since the girl is fine, I'll be relieved. When I arrive in Fanyang, I will definitely compensate the girl."

Cai Yan in the carriage was already beating at this time. When she heard Gao Fei say "compensation", a ripples in her heart and thought to herself secretly: "You saw my body, from now on, I will be yours. Marrying me is the best compensation..."

Cai Yong walked over at this time and put his daughter's clothes in his arms. At the same time, he was holding an oil paper umbrella in his hand and a handful of armpits. He did not hand the clothes to his daughter first, but hit the oil paper umbrella on Gao Fei's head first, and said with concern: "General, the rain is heavy and the wind is cool. General is afraid that he will be in good health when standing in the wind and rain. Please respect yourself."

Gao Fei smiled at Cai Yong, took the oil-paper umbrella handed over by Cai Yong, and said, "Thank you for your kindness, sir, don't catch a cold, I have something to do with me, so I'll say goodbye first."

Cai Yong didn't try to keep him, and there was no need to keep him. There was nothing to keep in the wilderness. Seeing Gao Fei leaving, he handed his clothes to Cai Yan in the car, held up an oil-paper umbrella, approached the window, and said to Cai Yan inside: "Yan'er, what do you think General Gao is?"

Cai Yan felt a sudden heart, but he didn't know how to answer, so he asked, "Sir, why did you suddenly ask about this?"

Cai Yong said: "General Gao is a hero, and he may become a person who turns the tide in the future. If you think he can, please ask someone for your father to find out if he has a wife..."

"My father..."

"I'm also for your own good. Your mother died early. You are my only relative. Only by arranging you properly can you be considered to be really worry-free for your father. General Gao took great care of our father and daughter along the way, and he is also a very capable person. For your father, he wants to betroth you to General Gao, but I don't know what you think?"

"..." Cai Yan did not answer, but was very happy in his heart.

Cai Yong is not a fool either. He could see a strange look in his daughter's eyes. Seeing that his daughter did not answer, he no longer asked, thinking about how to raise this matter to Gao Fei after he arrived in Youzhou.
