Chapter 89: The Horse (3)

Ma Teng began to slow down three miles away, and then stopped a mile and a half away. Yan Zhong first rushed to Chen Cheng with Yue Cai, and said in a loud voice: "General Ma Teng personally brought people to greet the prince!" ”

Chen Cheng said in surprise: "Ma Teng actually came in person?" ”

"Exactly!"

Chen Cheng laughed and said, "The benefits of Bodao's tongue are no less than Su Qin and Zhang Yi!" ”

Su Qin and Zhang Yi were both columnists in the Warring States Period, and they traveled between countries by virtue of their tongues. said that the king, moving the world, one wore the seal of the six countries, and the other helped the Qin State to break through the Chu State and seize hundreds of miles of land. In history, these two people are almost synonymous with the Zongheng family.

Yan Zhong laughed and said, "If it weren't for the strong soldiers of the prince, even if it was for Su Qin and Zhang Yi's tongue, there would be nothing to be done. ”

Chen Cheng shook his head and said, "Ma Teng hasn't fought with us again, how do you know if we can fight or not?" ”

Yan Zhong said: "Ma Teng is also a veteran general who has led troops for many years, and it is natural to distinguish whether the army is elite or not. ”

Chen Cheng smiled: "Let's not praise each other, so as not to make General Ma Teng wait too long." ”

More than a dozen cavalrymen trotted over to the open space between the two armies, and when Ma Teng saw it, he also ordered ten elites and ran to the middle. Yan Zhong followed him from Luoyang to Xiliang, tired from running all the way. When I got here, I went into the city to meet Ma Teng without stopping, and when I was done, I rode back and forth on horseback, and there was no pain in my body, but I didn't think it was bitter.

Ma Teng reined in the war horse and looked to the opposite side, only to see that the first person had clear eyebrows, beautiful eyes, red lips and white teeth, and his appearance was even higher than his eldest son. If you just look at the face, you might think of it as a beautiful girl. But as long as you see Chen Cheng's eyes, you will understand that this is by no means a mortal in the world. And if you look closely, there is a faint scar on the left side of his face, which adds a bit of murderous aura to him out of thin air.

Ma Teng was even more surprised in his heart, he jumped off the horse first, and arched his hand: "Julu Hou!" ”

Chen Cheng also dismounted and saluted: "General Ma! ”

Ma Teng is looking at Chen Cheng, why is Chen Cheng not looking at Ma Teng? He looked intently and saw that the other party was eight feet tall, with a thick chest, thick arms and thighs, and seemed to be a good material for a fierce general.

Chen Cheng said: "The poor came to vote, thank you General Ma for his help." ”

Ma Teng said: "Julu Hou is polite, I have ordered someone to prepare a banquet in the city to wash the dust for you." Juluhou will bring someone into the city with me, how about it? ”

Chen Cheng said: "General Ma has a heart, but we are new to the city, it is not good to enter the city directly, it is better to let the soldiers be stationed here first, and the general can choose a better address for the princess in the city." ”

Ma Teng was a little confused, and asked suspiciously, "Princess?" ”

Chen Cheng took Liu Qian's hand and introduced: "This is the daughter of the first emperor, the princess of Wannian. Before the first emperor died, he asked me to take care of his children. There was chaos in Luoyang City, and although I was defeated, I couldn't bear to damage the blood of the first emperor, so I brought her out. Princess, this is General Ma Teng, Emperor Guangwu Shi Fubo General Ma Yuan, generation after the loyal and good. ”

There was a trace of tiredness between Liu Qian's eyebrows, but her face was full of determination, she gave a military salute to Ma Teng, and said, "It turned out that after General Fubo, then I am still related." ”

Ma Yuan's daughter was later made the queen, so Liu Qian said that they were relatives, and they were a little bit closer.

Ma Teng's face was red and blue, green and red, shy and irritable, he was not false after Ma Yuan, but where is what is loyalty? Chen Cheng and Liu Qian talked like this, so that he almost didn't find a crack in the ground to get into. Fortunately, his complexion was already dark, and even if he was a little red, others couldn't see it. Ma Teng bowed to the ground and said, "Minister, be stable and guard Ma Teng, and meet Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”

Liu Qian looked up at Chen Cheng, Chen Cheng let go of his hand and smiled at her, so Liu Qian stepped forward, helped Ma Teng up, and said, "Uncle, please get up, we are relatives, so there is no need to be so polite." ”

Ma Teng stood up and said loudly: "Please stay here for a while, I will immediately ask someone to get a carriage over, and then welcome the princess into the city." ”

Liu Qian smiled: "Why bother? I'll just ride a horse. ”

Ma Teng asked in surprise, "The princess can ride a horse?" ”

Liu Qian said generously: "I don't know, I'm still learning, I'll ride with Juluhou." ”

Ma Teng said: "How can this be? ”

Liu Qian looked up at Chen Cheng again and said, "On the day we escaped from Luoyang, it was Julu Hou who tied me to my body and then killed me from the army, so what is wrong with it now?" ”

Ma Teng was speechless, bored for a while, and said, "In that case, please open the way for the princess!" ”

With that, he jumped on his horse and shouted, "Follow me!" ”

There are many Qianghu warriors in the cavalry of the Ma family, although their armor is not good, but they are all elites who are good at fighting on horseback, these cavalry deliberately show off in front of the comers, all of them are full of spirits, lined up in a not very strict formation, and surrounded Chen Cheng and others towards Pengyang.

Liu Qian sat in front of Chen Cheng, looked at the Qianghu cavalry around him, looked up and asked, "How did I behave just now?" ”

Chen Cheng touched her hair and said with a smile: "Very good." ”

As soon as the tense strings in Liu Qian's heart were loosened, a smile appeared on her face, and then sleepiness swelled up, and she muttered: "Then I'm going to sleep for a while, and call me when the place comes." ”

As she spoke, she leaned into Chen Cheng's arms, and fell asleep after a while. They have been coming over like this for the past few days, and at first they were a little worried about whether they would fall, but now they have become accustomed to nature.

In front of the army, Yan Zhong chased after him and said to Ma Teng: "Congratulations to the general." ”

Ma Teng said solemnly: "Where does the joy come from?" ”

Yan Zhong said with a smile: "The general and the princess have recognized their relatives, and in the future, they can say that they are Han Zhongliang, and no one can say that the general is rebellious." ”

Ma Teng was still straining his face, but the smile couldn't help but spread from the corners of his mouth to the surroundings, he laughed, and after a while, he said: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say, it's thanks to Mr., otherwise, how could there be such a thing?" ”

Yan Zhong said: "Although Juluhou was forced to come to Xiliang by the general, he is a hussar general who was canonized by the first emperor himself, and he can open a mansion and build teeth. Now that he is poor, if the general can serve him as the master, he can borrow the name of the hussar general to order the Xiliang departments. In this way, even Han Sui did not dare to underestimate the general. ”

Ma Teng immediately became alert and prevaricated: "Let's prepare a place for the princess to stay first, and then talk about other things when the arrangements are ready." ”

When Yan Zhong saw Ma Teng say this, he didn't say more, and came to Pengyang City again.

When he arrived at the gate of the city, Ma Teng ordered the cavalry under his command to line up outside the city, and then he discussed with Chen Cheng and let Liu Qian sit on the back of the horse alone, and then he personally pulled the reins and led the horse into the city.

Ma Teng is the emperor of the soil in Anding, and he is responsible for military and political affairs, and when he comes out like this, the whole city was alarmed, and people flocked to the city gate to see what was going on. It didn't take long for the news of Princess Wannian's arrival in Pengyang to spread throughout the city.

"Big brother!" Ma Tie ran into the courtyard in a hurry and shouted, "Ah Da has brought a princess back!" ”

Ma Chao was startled and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Ma Tie said playfully: "I heard that it was the princess Wannian who escaped from Luoyang City, and my brother and they all went to see it, saying that she looked like a fairy in the sky!" ”

When Ma Chao heard this, his expression was uncertain, and then he laughed and said, "This is really God helping me!" ”

He shouted out to the outside of the courtyard, "Come, bring my horse!" ”

Ma Tie asked, "Is the eldest brother also going to see the princess?" ”

With the help of his own soldiers, Ma Chao put on a full outfit and said with a smile: "Yes, let's go and let that something.... What ....."

"Princess Wannian!"

"That's right, it's Princess Wannian, let her take a look at our good boy in Xiliang!" Ma Chao flicked the feather on his helmet, then put it on his head, and said, "Cheer up!" ”

Ma Chao came to the city gate with dozens of gorgeously dressed knights, and saw his father Ma Teng leading a few majestic red war horses and walking home. The muscles on the horse's body swelled outwards as if they were sculptures, revealing an explosive beauty. The horse's red mane fluttered as it walked, like a flame.

In the midst of the burning flames, sitting on the top was the princess of Wannian.

Jin Ma Chao turned around at that time and asked, "That's what you said about a beautiful princess like a fairy?" ”

Ma Tie said excitedly: "Yes, yes, it's really like a fairy." ”

Ma Chao endured and endured, almost unable to hold back his roar. The girl on horseback is very beautiful, but she looks so small, she is a little girl at all!

He stared at Ma Tie with vicious eyes, gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, it's really like a fairy." ”

Ma Tie was frightened by his eyes, shrank back, and whispered, "What are you doing to me?" ”

"Why didn't you say the princess was so young?"

Ma Tie stepped back and whispered, "What's wrong with Xiao?" Can't you grow up? When I grow up, see if you dare to murder me! ”

Ma Chao was stunned when he said this, and he immediately woke up to the fact that the princess of Wannian is still young, but she will always grow up. Then first this and then that.......

He looked down the street with an eagle-like gaze, and immediately spotted Chen Cheng slowly following Ma Teng. It's probably like stand-in messengers will attract each other, and handsome guys will also attract each other, when Ma Chao looked at Chen Cheng, Chen Cheng also happened to cut at him.

Good things always make people feel pleasant, Chen Cheng saw a young man with sword eyebrows and a beautiful face, so he smiled at him kindly. Ma Chao did not smile at him kindly, but looked at his right hand with a yin owl's gaze, as well as the armor on his body and the sword hanging from his waist.

Ma Teng led the horse to the door of his house and shouted inside, and immediately a man dressed as a Qiang man ran over and knelt down beside the horse. Liu Qian looked sideways and asked, "What is this?" ”

"Please dismount the princess," Ma Teng signaled, "just step on it." ”

Liu Qian then stepped on the man's back and jumped down.
