A.D. 182 Eastern Han Dynasty Guanghe five years, the first day of the first month.

Early in the morning, Ma Yue finished running in the morning and wrote a word at home, and saw the children of the Ma family running to his door to pay New Year's greetings, and Ma Chao brought a wolf fur to Ma Yue, which is said to have taken him ten years to hunt this wolf fur that only a few white wolves have. Ma Yue was also prepared, and Yu Lu was sent to him when he was close to the end of the year, and the reward of the state government at the end of the year was enough to have 10,000 yuan, so he gave Ma Chao, Ma Xiu, Ma Dai and a few Zhuangke's children 500 yuan per person as a New Year's Eve, and Ma Yue, the four children of the Ma family, also gave each of them a brand-new ten-refining sword and a good horse.

Today's Ma family is no longer the Ma family that used to be poor and destitute for food, and the capture of the battle in Lingshui is enough to have as much as ten gold, not to mention that there are two hundred cattle and sheep in the North Palace of Kaichun, and there are nearly 100 horses and dozens of cattle and sheep at home, which can be regarded as a rich family.

Ma Yue went to the house in the manor to pay New Year's greetings, and then took a few entourages and a few carriages into Longxian. The wagons were loaded with some rice and jerky. After entering the city, along the streets and alleys to the families of the soldiers who died in the Lingshui military camp, one by one to pay New Year's greetings, and then left some rice grain and dried meat, after worshipping fifty-five households, he sent Gutaer to take the remaining rice grain and dried meat to the military camp to distribute to the soldiers, and he himself entered the Assassin's Mansion to pay New Year's greetings to Liang Hu.

At the beginning of the new year, Liang Hu did not wear an official robe and saw Ma Yue in the study.

Liang Hu's study is naturally full of literati atmosphere, the walls are hung with Liang Hu's eight-point characters, at this time the study is not only Liang Hu, but also an old man who is nearly half a hundred years old sits on the side, the old man has a kind eyebrow and a demeanor, Ma Yue knows, he is going to see a celebrity again.

"Student Ma Yue, congratulations to Mr. Zhengdan."

Ma Yue greeted Liang Hu for the New Year, and at the same time presented the book written at home in the morning, "Congratulations to my master on the New Year's Day, and go to the mansion to celebrate the New Year". Although the "Caihou paper" in the Han Dynasty was expensive, so bamboo slips were used more, but Ma Yue was a disciple of Liang Hu, so how could there be less paper.

Ma Yue copied Liang Hu's font for a long time, and he could be regarded as having such a trace of charm, Liang Hu was happy to see his disciple's penmanship improve again, not to mention that the student was so hearted, and his face was also bright in front of his old friends. At that moment, with a smile on his face, he put Ma Yue's words on the table, took his hand and introduced Ma Yue: "Erlang, this is Cai Yong Cai Yilang, who created the flying white body, don't come to see the ceremony." ”

As soon as Ma Yue heard that it was Cai Yong, he bowed down, this old gentleman has been famous for a long time, not to mention that he is a friend of his master Liang Hu, he will not lose this worship.

Liang Hu said to Cai Yong: "Brother Bo, this is my disciple Ma Yue. ”

It can be seen that Cai Yong has a good impression of Ma Yue, perhaps because of Ma Yue's respect for his teacher, he touched his long hair and said with a smile: "Emperor Meng's disciple is born heroic, unlike the old man's disciple Wei Zhong Daosheng's weakness. ”

Ma Yue smiled and didn't speak, although he didn't have anything to do with his eyebrows and eyes, he was born with a tiger body ape arm, a wolf waist, a square face, and a heroic and fierce man, Wei Zhongdao is Cai Wenji's husband, and the old man said that he can't talk about his son-in-law.

Wei Zhongdao! Isn't that Wei He's younger brother, the scene of the Wei family's dead soldiers assassinating everyone three times and five times during the trip to the Western Regions is vivid in Ma Yue's mind, Ma Yue didn't speak in the blink of an eye, and he has secretly calculated it in his heart.

Liang Hu smiled, pointed at Ma Yue and said: "Brother Bo Jiao, do you know, my disciple is Ma Fubo, last year with the state assassin Shi Dong Zhuo saw his bravery, so he borrowed Jincheng to perform martial arts, my disciple won three consecutive victories on the grassland Liangzhou, a while ago on the bank of the Lingshui River with 300 soldiers defeated 600 thieves can be described as a young hero, and now he is a military candidate. ”

Liang Hu introduced Ma Yue to Cai Yong like introducing his son to a friend, Liang Hu praised him a little too much, although he broke out a little brave, but he was not brave enough to win Liangzhou, but there were many people he knew who were stronger than him, which made him a little embarrassed.

Hearing Liang Hu say this, Cai Yong had more good feelings for Ma Yue, and when he saw Ma Yue's tall posture, he secretly guessed that Liang Hu's disciple was a martial artist, and the Han people were martial, and they despised only those reckless men who did not understand literature and ink, and people who were both civil and military could easily get people's favor, "I didn't expect Ma Junhou to be such a heroic young man." ”

As soon as Ma Yue heard Cai Yong call himself Ma Junhou, he said: "The old gentleman is my elder, you can call me Erlang, but calling me Junhou tortures me." ”

As soon as Ma Yue's words fell, Liang Hu continued: "Brother Bo, and my disciple is not yet married, these days I am thinking about being a matchmaker for him, isn't your daughter still unmarried, why don't you consider me as a disciple?" ”

Ma Yue suddenly realized at this time that Liang Hu was so dedicated to helping him find a wife, which made him feel moved beyond words.

Ma Yue is also quite miserable, his father died early, and his brother brought him up since he was a child, and his two brothers are both decisive and confused guys, and his marriage has dragged on until now.

Fortunately, Ma Yue has Liang Hu, a master who is worried about his disciple's marriage.

In ancient times, filial piety was two-sided, the so-called one day as a teacher and a father for life, more than a teacher, many disciples, just like an extra son, to think about their sons like fathers.

As soon as he heard that his old friend was calling his daughter's attention, Cai Yong was about to jump up, and his angry beard blew high.

"The old man came late to get a daughter, and Yan'er has just arrived in the year of Jilu, so she is not in such a hurry to get married."

Liang Hu was also a little indignant when he heard this, "My disciple is the best choice in character, talent, appearance, bravery, and martial arts, why is he not worthy of Brother Bo's daughter?" ”

Cai Yong knew that Liang Hu had misunderstood, and hurriedly said: "Emperor Meng, don't misunderstand, the old man definitely doesn't mean to look down on San Lang, the old man only has such a daughter when he is not confused, and I want him to accompany me for two more years, and I will talk about the marriage later." ”

Hearing Cai Yong say this, Liang Hu was relieved and said: "I'm afraid that you won't be able to find such a heroic young man in two years, my insider wanted to find a marriage for San Lang from his mother's house a few days ago, but I'm afraid that San Lang and Yan'er won't be able to get together." ”

Cai Yong smiled: "Let's talk about those things later, but it is very prestigious with the Pei family in Hedong, and it would be good if San Lang could marry a Pei valve woman." ”

Ma Yue just watched Liang Hu and Cai Yong discuss his life's events, but he was not shocked, he had already prepared for marriage and could not be independent, so he was very calm, listening to Liang Hu to tell Cai Yong for himself, it was impossible to say in his heart that there was no fluctuation, Cai Wenji, a talented woman through the ages, let alone marry, he really wanted to know this strange woman with a miserable background.

He wasn't very interested in marrying Cai Wenji or not, and he hadn't even met in person anyway, but if there was a way to make Wei Zhongdao marry Cai Wenji in the future, Ma Yue would be quite reluctant.

He was thinking about going to Hedong to do something bad in his heart, when he heard Cai Yong ask: "San Lang, after a while, would you like to learn Feibai with me?" ”
