After that, Zhang Lu was the former Hanzhong Taishou, so he specially invited Ma Chao and a few people. Now it doesn't matter what time it is, anyway, it's right to follow the rules of the rivers and lakes at this time.

Everyone drinks and feasts, it can also be said that the guests and hosts are happy, but now it is difficult to say who is the guest and who is the host.

After the banquet, Ma Chao deliberately left Zhang Lu behind, or he deliberately stopped Zhang Lu, because there were still a lot of things to say to him. After all, in front of so many people before, some things were really hard to say, so Ma Chao found such an opportunity to talk to Zhang Lu. Of course, Zhang Lu actually knew that Ma Chao was definitely looking for him, so in fact, he was also waiting for Ma Chao. And he naturally has the intention of having a good chat with Ma Chao, so the two actually have a tacit understanding in this regard.

"But I don't know what Mr. Gongqi's plans are for the future?"

Ma Chao asked directly, and there was no need to beat around the bush for people like Zhang Lu. And Jia Xu told him before, and now Zhang Lu has no ambitions. So since Zhang Gongqi has no ambitions, Ma Chao will definitely not move him. is still the same sentence, because Zhang Lu's identity is different from others, and his identity as a Heavenly Master of the Five Doumi Sect, it is impossible for Ma Chao not to pay attention to it, so even if Zhang Lu is defeated, he can't let him die, at least he can't die in his own hands, or it will be a big trouble.

Zhang Lu smiled slightly when he heard this: "Don't hide it from the state pastor, Lu feels that he is far worse than his ancestors, so in the future, he will concentrate on cultivating the Tao and no longer ask about the world!" ”

As soon as Ma Chao heard this, Zhang Lu said so, but as soon as he wanted to ask again, he heard Zhang Lu continue: "Don't worry, the Heavenly Master of the Five Doumi Sect." Lu naturally won't do it again. Lu's fourth son, Zhang Sheng, is competent enough, and everything in the sect will be handed over to him in the future, and Lu will not ask again. And the state pastor can now be like this to my sect, Lu is already grateful, so the Wudou Mi Sect will never be the enemy of the state pastor in the future, and please rest assured! ”

When Ma Chao heard this, he said in his heart that the people he was thinking about had already known the Tao, and he promised to do so, what else could he say. This is in the negotiations. I'm at a disadvantage, and everyone knows what I think, what advantage can I have?

"Lu still has a few sons, although they are bent on seeking the Tao, but if Lu asks them to follow the state pastor. I believe they will not refuse, I wonder what the state pastor thinks of this proposal? ”

Ma Chaoxin said. You Zhang Gongqi is retreating as advancing. What do you want a few Taoist priests to do, do you really want to study black powder? I don't study that myself, and I still rely on cold weapons for a while! Your own son, then you should keep it for yourself. In fact, after Ma Chao knew Zhang Lu's thoughts, he really didn't have the heart to keep his son as a hostage or something. And Jia Xu said it well, now there is very little that can make Zhang Lu pay attention to it anymore. So Ma Chao understands that even his son is useless.

And since Zhang Lu has no ambition and doesn't have too many thoughts, it has nothing to do with him what he does again. For a person who has nothing to threaten and hinder himself. Ma Chao naturally doesn't care about him anymore, he pays attention to what he does. What's more, Zhang Lu can't be killed in the first place, so he can only do what he likes to do, so let him do what he wants.

Ma Chao smiled: "Mr. Gongqi doesn't have to be like this, Chao is busy fighting for fame and fortune in the world, and a few of them are bent on seeking the Tao, so it's better not to be contaminated with these mundane things!" ”

Zhang Lu smiled slightly when he heard this, "What the state pastor said is very reasonable, if you want to say that Lu was like this before, but now it is quite good, and Lu can be like this, I really have to thank the state pastor!" ”

Ma Chao hurriedly waved his hand: "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be!" ”

Ma Chaoxin said, I didn't mean to scold Huai, I didn't mean to say you at all. And after the two chatted briefly, Zhang Lu said goodbye, and Ma Chao was arranged by Zhang Lu in the best room-

However, Ma Chao didn't go, and after Zhang Lu left, he went directly to Jia Xu, because this was all agreed by the two before.

"Lord!"

"Sir, this is ......"

"Lord, look at it is still like this today......"

Ma Chao nodded after hearing this, because Jia Xu told him that something might happen tonight. And this is Jia Xu's experience for many years, and Ma Chao is actually a lot worse in this. Listening to Jia Xu's meaning, it means that the Yang brothers may be unfavorable to themselves, and it is likely that they will act tonight. To put it bluntly, it is to take advantage of the fact that he and the others have just arrived in Nanzheng, and their foothold is not stable, and they are ready to kill themselves by surprise. But they may think that they have a good plan, but they don't know that Jia Xu is a good calculator, so Ma Chao is naturally on guard.

Before, Ma Chao only brought Zhang Fei and Jia Xu and dozens of their personal guards into Nanzheng, but by this time, the Liangzhou Army had actually taken over the four city gates of Nanzheng: North Gate, South Gate, East Gate and West Gate. And Ma Chao always felt that he should be quite safe, but Jia Xu didn't think so, don't look at the other party, he also knew this, but it didn't mean that the other party didn't dare to take risks. Therefore, Jia Xu asked his lord to be careful tonight, and it was best not to live here in the Taishou Mansion, and go directly to the north city gate.

Don't look at Ma Chao's Liangzhou army has taken over the four city gates, but at this time, the soldiers in Nanzheng are only about 20,000, he can't pull all the soldiers into Nanzheng, and the other party's men and horses must have at least four or five thousand, after all, if Yang Song really wants to do this, it may be supported by his family, so four or five thousand people are not much.

If Ma Chao had no defense, then Yang Song and the others might really succeed, but now after Jia Xu's reminder, if Ma Chao didn't have any preparations and no moves, he would be in vain. So tonight, if Yang Song and they don't make any moves, it's fine, once they really do what Jia Xu said, the consequences are really ......-

"Are you all ready?" This was asked by Yang Song.

"Big brother, do you really want to do this?"

And Yang Bai next to him was quite cautious, he always felt that it shouldn't be like this. And his eldest brother, not only brought himself with him, but also let the family also come out, once Ma Mengqi does not die and the Liangzhou army does not retreat, the family will suffer a catastrophe.

A person next to him said: "Yang Bai, you are as timid as a mouse, you are not as good as Yang Song!" ”

The person who said this was Zhang Wei, and the matter of dealing with Ma Chao this time was conspired by him and Yang Song. Originally, when I defended the city before, I didn't have any ideas. But after his eldest brother said that he surrendered to Ma Chao, if he didn't take some action, then Hanzhong would be gone.

For Zhang Wei, Ma Chao should be defenseless against himself and others. Take 10,000 steps back and say that if a few of your own people fail, the worst big deal is death, which is better than surrendering others and sending people down.

However, Zhang Wei is easy, but Yang Song is not easy. In tonight's action, he pulled the family up, so he was defeated, and not only his own life was lost, but even the family had to suffer in the end. He suddenly wondered if he was a little impulsive. You said that if you want the other party to get up, you will go yourself, why do you also pull the private soldiers in the family. But now it's on the line, and it has to be sent. Even if he let the family retreat, it is estimated that after the defeat, he Ma Mengqi will not let go of his Yang family.

To say that each of them has everyone's thoughts, Zhang Wei is not convinced by Ma Chao and the Liangzhou Army, he is like following his eldest brother Zhang Lu, but his eldest brother obviously does not have the intention of fighting for hegemony now, so he naturally wants to resist, anyway, it is best to win, maybe he can become a prince. If you lose, it's a big deal that you will die.

But the Yang brothers are not the reason for disagreeing with Ma Chao, to put it bluntly, it is still for the interests of their own family. Because although Zhang Lu is not from Hanzhong, he is not from Yizhou. But after all, he and the Yang family of Nanzheng in Hanzhong, as well as several Haoqiang in Hanzhong, have compromised. Therefore, Zhang Luneng and the family are strong and peaceful, plus he does have the strength, and the five buckets of rice teach the heavenly master, so they have always been at peace with each other.

But now that Ma Chao is so sideways, things have changed a lot. First of all, they have just chosen Zhang Lu, who also has a good relationship with them, is going to step down and be replaced by a pure outsider, Ma Chao and Ma Mengqi. Of course, they can't compromise easily, after all, although Zhang Lu is not from Yizhou, he has been in Yizhou for many years, and he can be regarded as half of Yizhou. But what kind of green onion does he calculate, not even half of it.

So in their opinion, instead of letting outsiders do this Hanzhong Taishou, it is better to let Hanzhong locals or Yizhou people be the ones. So now Yang Song and they are going to besiege and kill Ma Chao tonight, they think so, even if they can't kill Ma Chao, but they have to let him compromise, and they must give the benefits of the powerful head of the Hanzhong family, so that he can safely enter Hanzhong and put Hanzhong under his rule.

It's a pity that they had a good idea, but this wishful thinking was indeed wrong.

When Yang Bai heard Zhang Wei say this, of course he was not convinced, "Who is afraid of whom, I want to see tonight, how bold you Zhang Wei is!" Don't you want to deal with Zhang Fei, you go and fight Zhang Fei! ”

"Just go, just wait!"

"Don't say anything, let's do it right away!"

As soon as Yang Song finished speaking, Zhang Wei and Yang Bai were silent. Although the two of them quarreled, they were still faintly led by Yang Song, which was right.

"Tonight, we will surround the Taishou Mansion, and we must capture or kill Ma Chao Meng Qi in one battle, and we will know the way!"

"No!"

"No!"

The two agreed, and waited for the time to lead the troops to kill Ma Chao and them one by one. (To be continued......)
