Knowing that Cai Yong is still alive, Cao Jie naturally won't give up. They began to bribe local officials to get rid of Cai Yong. But coincidentally, the bribed official was also a kind person, and he always admired Cai Yong's talent, so he didn't kill him. Even told Cai Yong about it and told him to be extra careful. In this way, Cai Yong was able to live for a while. Since then, Cai Yong wrote to Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty, saying that he would write the Book of Later Han Dynasty.

Later, when Dong Zhuo learned of Cai Yong's talent, he wanted to force him into the palace. And told him that if he didn't come back, he would kill his family. In this way, Cai Yong returned to the palace. After Dong Zhuo was killed by Wang Yun, Cai Yong was very sad. Wang Yun took the opportunity to put Cai Yong in jail and finally died in prison.
