Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Battle of Tongues
"That's right, that's what I Ma Yue meant! Wei Qi has disgraced the face of your ancestors! β
Ma Yue pushed aside the crowd, walked up the steps of Liang's mansion, and blocked in front of Mrs. Liang and Cai Yan, and then Guan Yu and others stood behind him and surrounded Liang Hu, Mrs. Pei, and Cai Yan in a circle.
As soon as Wei Qi saw Ma Yue and the others coming back, the smug look on his face became even more obvious, he pointed at Ma Yue and said: "It is this kind of rampant thief who instructed his subordinates to mutilate my entourage, and my entourage is like a brother to me, but he is still lying on the sickbed and unable to walk!" Please help me with an explanation! β
As soon as Wei Qi's words fell, a Tai student at the front took two steps forward, pulled out the Han sword at his waist and slashed at Ma Yue, and shouted: "Treat me for the world except for you, a fierce man!" β
Guan Yu and the others stepped forward one after another, and Anmu's Lijing warriors even pulled out their weapons.
In a hurry, Cai Yan opened his mouth and shouted: "Senior brother, be careful! β
However, Ma Yue looked at the Han Sword that was close at hand, opened his arms to block the people behind him, stared at the student who drew the sword and shouted, "Don't move!" β
Ma Yue's roar was so loud that it made Guan Yu and the others hesitate for a moment, and it was so big that the hand holding the sword of the Tai student trembled.
The blade of the sword entered the body and slashed through Ma Yue's chest.
I bet ...... Win!
The sword of this Tai student had no killing intent, and the long sword only cut through a layer of Ma Yue's skin, and the wound was not deep and did not hurt the bones.
This sword will not take Ma Yue's life!
"The Ma family obeys the order, and all the weapons are put away!" Ma Yue stared at the Tai student who was close at hand, for fear that he would cut out a sword again, if he swung the Han sword in his hand again, Ma Yue would have to resist, and then it would be a river of blood, out of control.
Fortunately, the Tai student just stood in front of Ma Yue with his sword in his hand, looking at the slashed chest in a daze, and did not give Ma Yue a chance to slaughter the Tai student's disciple in exile in Liangzhou.
The atmosphere was too tense, and Ma Yue ordered his subordinates to put away their weapons and relax a lot.
Ma Yue said: "You students are just misled by traitors, our swords should not be aimed at them. Too a student, is the future of my big man. β
No one in the world knows better that the building of the Han family will fall, but he is telling the truth, even if the world of the Han Dynasty is in chaos, these students are also the backbone of maintaining the reunification of the world.
"I once heard that the eldest son of the Wei family is known for his talent and intelligence, and today it seems that he is really smart." Ma Yue sneered: "Who is insulting my general at the gate of the Liang Mansion, and scolding me Ma Yue behind his back." After that, Ma Yue looked at Wei Zhongdao in the crowd and said, "Wei Zhongdao, has the Liang family ever prevented you from entering the mansion?" β
"Huh?" Wei Zhongdao was stunned when he suddenly heard Ma Yue call his name, he was also looking at the wound on Ma Yue's chest and was stunned, hearing Ma Yue ask the word 'no' almost blurted out, but he didn't know how to answer, Wei Zhongdao was humble and polite, but he didn't think he was a fool, once he told the truth, his brother's reputation would suffer.
Can...... Not telling the truth is against the way of a gentleman.
Everyone's eyes were on him, Wei Zhongdao gritted his teeth, shook his head and said, "No...... The guards of the Liang Mansion have never stopped me. β
Wei Qi hurriedly said: "Second brother! β
Wei Zhongdao looked at his eldest brother and sighed.
Ma Yue continued: "The second son of the Wei family is humble and kind, and he is a talented man who is respected by the whole of my Liang Mansion, and we all welcome the visit of the second son, but the eldest son of the Wei family is extremely arrogant, and he bullied my generals in front of my Liang Mansion. Is it wrong for me to not let him enter the house? β
Among the students, Ma Yue's remarks caused an uproar, but despite this, there was still a student close to Wei Qi who shouted: "You keep saying that your family general, you are a prisoner, what qualifications do you have to contain the family general!" β
"Hehe, prisoner." At the mention of this word, Ma Yue said angrily: "Your Majesty remembered that my Ma Yue had a meritorious role in blocking Xianbei in the north and gave me my title and official position and copper seal and ink, they were all the generals I received at that time, what's wrong!" β
Wei Qi scolded and scolded: "However, you are now just a prisoner wearing a guilty body, you have been demoted to a concubine, and you should dismiss the generals, but here you instruct the generals to be powerful, conniving and hurting people, and there are still words!" β
Ma Yue was speechless, the Han Dynasty and the Qin system, the title and treatment have provisions in black and white, there are slaves with titles, and the family will just be a good word for slaves.
In Liangzhou, he can ignore these etiquette systems, recruit as many subordinates as he wants, and as long as he can afford it, no one dares to care about him.
But here, it's Luoyang!
At this moment, Cai Yan flashed out from behind Ma Yue and saluted the students slowly and methodically, and asked: "You only know that Ma Yue is a sinner, but you don't know why he was convicted, who of you has not seen the Xiping stone carving of the slave father?" Including Wei Gongzi, but someone didn't learn from Xiping stone carvings? β
A group of Taixue disciples didn't know what the Xiping stone carvings had to do with Ma Yue, but Ma Yue knew what Cai Yan was going to say, and at this time, letting Cai Yan admit Cai Yong's guilt was tantamount to sprinkling salt on the wound, he stretched out his hand and pulled Cai Yan and said, "Miss Cai doesn't have to ......."
Cai Yan ignored Ma Yue at all, and said loudly: "All the gentlemen have studied Confucian classics according to the stone carvings, and they are all considered to be their father's protΓ©gΓ©s, and Ma Yue was convicted for helping his father escape from the slander of the eunuch party!" He's your teacher's benefactor! β
As he spoke, two lines of tears crossed Cai Yan's face.
Ma Yue sighed, blocked Cai Yan behind him, and said to the students: "I know, you are disgusted because I am from Liangzhou, and I am born in the market and have such a terrible scar on my face, but my Ma Yue is upright, I am not a gentleman but I am not a villain. That's right, it was my idea to instruct the generals to beat Wei Gongzi's entourage, and it was also my request not to let him enter the gate of this Liang Mansion, I just have a grudge against Wei Qian! Is it wrong for me not to let him in my house? β
The students were speechless, they no longer hated the same enemy, no longer looked at Ma Yue with hatred, but looked at Wei Qi with suspicion.
Wei Qi was also confused by what Ma Yue said, and hurriedly waved his hand at everyone, saying: "Don't believe Ma Yue, I haven't seen him before he came to Luoyang, how can he have a grudge against me?" β
Ma Yue looked at Tai Xue, stretched out his hand and pointed to the scar on his left eye and said: "The Wei family has an illegitimate son named Wei He, who treats me like a brother. Wei Jia's eldest son, Wei Qian, was afraid that the second brother would compete with him for the family inheritance after he recovered from his illness, and along the way, several teams of dead soldiers chased and killed us, and the Bole who knew the way died, the horse was gone, we were trapped in the desert without water and food, and there were only a dozen people left in the team of fifty people out of the desert, which was not enough, there were still Wei family dead soldiers chasing and killing us, and we went out of the desert to Zhangye, and we were almost wiped out, and finally gave up buying turtle boards for his brother. When I went back, Brother Wei and Brother lost his arm, and I had such a scar on my face, maybe the knife hand was a little more ruthless, and now Ma Yue may only slowly rot in the grave. That year, I was twelve years old. β
"Gentlemen, is this hatred enough for me not to let him enter? Is it too much for me to send a general to beat his retinue? β
The students were speechless, and they all glared at Wei Qi angrily.
Ma Yue saw that no one was speechless, waved his hand and said: "Ma Yue is going to enter the house to treat his injury, if you have any questions, you can come to visit, if anyone is willing to exchange calligraphy or military calligraphy and war strategy experience, count the horse as higher and higher, San Lang sweeps the couch to greet him." β
"Yun Chang, help me, I'm a little dizzy." After Ma Yue finished speaking, he helped Guan Yu and led everyone back to Liang Mansion.
Wei Zhongdao looked at his brother and asked, "Big brother, is this true?" Wei and brother's arm, you really found someone to cut it? β
"No... No... It's not me! β
Wei Zhongdao roared angrily: "If it weren't for you, how could he know that I was sick!" β
After that, Wei Zhongdao had a gust of wind, as if chasing Ma Yue into the Liang Mansion.
The students also stayed away from Wei Qi one after another, and gradually dispersed.
