And a few days ago, under the Jiameng Pass, a group of more than 1,000 soldiers and horses slowly arrived. Meng You was covered in blood, and he fled for his life for days, and his injuries became more and more serious, if he was an ordinary person, he would have bled to death long ago. But Meng You relied on that belief in revenge and was able to persevere. Now Meng You is dying. The northwest scouts patrolling outside the pass soon noticed the pair of barbarian soldiers and horses, and hurriedly returned to the pass. Wei Yan heard that a barbarian army of more than 1,000 people was coming, so he hurriedly went to visit the front of the pass, and saw that the barbarian army was not in good shape, and most of the soldiers were even more uneven. Wei Yan looked at it, sneered, and looked back at the sergeant behind him and smiled.

"How dare such a rabble come and commit it!? I only need 300 elite soldiers to capture them all. ”

After Wei Yan finished speaking, he went down to the pass, ordered 300 elite soldiers, and went out to meet the enemy. When the barbarians saw a group of northwestern soldiers and horses coming, they hurriedly dismounted, dropped their weapons, and shouted surrender. Wei Yan galloped suddenly, and was about to fight, but when he saw that the barbarians dismounted and surrendered, he immediately frowned, thinking that it was a fraud. Suddenly, Wei Yan's eyes were fixed, and he found that Meng You, who was in the crowd, had a broken arm and was covered in blood. Suddenly, a thought surged through Wei Yan's mind.

"Could it be that the barbarians have gone to war with the deployment of the big-eared thieves? But why didn't you listen carefully in return? ”

Wei Yan groaned for a while, and then taught the sergeant to capture all the more than 1,000 barbarian soldiers and escort them back to Jiameng Pass. Later, Wei Yan summoned several people to meet him, and everyone immediately told them about the past one by one. When Wei Yan heard that Mrs. Zhurong and Ma Chao rebelled, killed Meng Yu, and put the blame on Meng You, he was very surprised, and said coldly in his heart.

"Humph! Didn't this Ma Mengqi have a good face, and he didn't know how to be honest, so he made this beauty trick! ”

Wei Yan was full of thoughts, so he taught someone to go to Zitong to investigate. Then while ordering the doctor to heal Meng You, he sent information to Xu Rong, who was guarding Hanzhong.

At the same time, Huang Quan had rushed to Zitong City to resume his life. Mrs. Zhurong was overjoyed when she got her wish, so she ordered the troops to pack up and prepare to return to Nanban on the same day. Huang Quan saw that Mrs. Zhurong had no regrets, and his heart was relieved. That night, Mrs. Zhurong held a banquet to entertain Huang Quan, and after three rounds of wine, Mrs. Zhurong sent someone to present Huang Quan with gold silk. Seeing this, Huang Quan hurriedly refused. When Mrs. Zhurong saw it, she snorted coldly and pretended to be angry. Ma Chao said with a smile.

"This is Madame's intention, how can Huang Gong refuse? If you are afraid that the lord will be suspicious, you can give it to the lord for military use, and you can also win his favor. ”

When Huang Quan heard this, his heart sank, and after hesitating for a while, he accepted it. Ma Chao then whispered in Huang Quan's ear.

"This time, I went far away from the barbarian realm, and there was no one left and right, so it was difficult to achieve great things. I also hope that Huang Gong and I will invite the lord and send my cousin Ma Bozhan to help. ”

When Huang Quan heard this, his brows furrowed, and then he thought of Ma Chao, in the land of barbarians, although Ma Chao has peerless martial arts, he is also favored by Mrs. Zhurong. But the so-called people who are not of my race will have different hearts. The barbarians will have trouble with Ma Chaoduo. Huang Quan thought about it, and said with a slight bow.

"Let's give it a try. However, Meng Qi has reached the barbarian realm, and you need to be strict with yourself and be cautious in everything. This time, the lord can be said to have taken great pains to enable you to return to the barbarian realm with Mrs. Zhurong. You can be loyal to the Lord, don't have different intentions, and don't let down the high expectations of the Lord!! ”

When Ma Chao heard this, he immediately frowned and asked Huang Quan in a whisper.

"Could it be that someone stopped me from entering the barbarian realm?"

"Yes, yes."

Huang Quan's face sank, remembering Zhuge Liang's desperate opposition that day, and he felt a little apprehensive in his heart. If Ma Chao really rebelled, with Zhuge Liang's temperament, it would be difficult to protect his own head, and at the same time, his reputation would be ruined. Huang Quan is not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, but he is never willing to be the sinner that Na Wanfu refers to.

Listening to what Huang Gong said, it seems to be extremely difficult for the lord. It's really a transcendent mistake. I don't know who it is? ”

"The person who can make the lord so embarrassed, the world is so big, and there is only Zhuge Kongming. General Ma didn't know that Zhuge Kongming tried his best to oppose it at the beginning, and he did not hesitate to confront the lord in court. The lord was convinced of General Ma, so the two argued for a long time. In the end, the lord was furious, and Zhuge Kongming gave in. ”

Huang Quan's face was solemn and he said in a low voice. Ma Chao listened, his face changed continuously, Zhuge Liangzhi won the name of the demon, he had already heard of it, and he couldn't help but feel a burst of apprehension in his heart at the moment, the lion's eyes narrowed tightly, and he thought silently in his head.

"Zhuge Kongming is already suspicious, it seems that I want to enter Sichuan as soon as possible, and I can't delay."

Mrs. Zhurong saw that Ma Chao and Huang Quan were talking in a low voice, but they didn't bother, the pair of charming demon eyes glanced at Ma Chao from time to time, and the red little mouth laughed unconsciously.

The next day, Huang Quan set off and went back to Brazil. Ma Chao and Mrs. Zhurong discussed for a while, but they didn't wait for Ma Dai to arrive, and at noon that day, they set off and rushed to the barbarian realm.

said that Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei broke up unhappily, and Liu Bei was angry in his heart, but after thinking about it later, he also felt that what Zhuge Liang said was reasonable. Two days later, Fa Zheng happened to come to see him and asked Liu Bei about some things about the deployment of Yizhou. After Liu Bei made a decision, he suddenly remembered Ma Chao's matter, so he told him about the past and asked about the law. When Fa Zheng heard this, his face changed, and he bowed his hand.

"Although he has little contact with the military advisor, he has also heard about the military advisor's personality. As the saying goes, there are no waves and no waves, and military advisors have always acted cautiously and thought closely, and it is absolutely impossible to slander others. In the past, I had a relationship with Ma Mengqi, and found that this person was arrogantly frustrated by Wen Bufan, and his temperament changed greatly, a little less sharp, but a little more deep.

At first, Liu Jiyu suspected that he was not sincere in his vote, so he was sent to Bazhou. Liu Jiyu ordered me to secretly send someone to monitor at that time, and I really found out that Ma Mengqi had signs of hidden power in Bazhou, and I quickly reported it. Liu Jiyu originally wanted to kill him, but he had already eliminated the root of the bane. But at that time, Wen Bufan raised troops to attack, so I taught him the strategy of driving away the wolf and devouring the tiger, and summoned Ma Mengqi from Bazhou to fight with Wen Bufan's Northwest Army. ”

As soon as Fa Zheng said this, Liu Bei's face suddenly changed, and he shouted.

"Why didn't you report this earlier!?"

Fa Zheng hurriedly made a confession and said to Liu Bei.

"The Lord is angry. At first, I had no evidence, just suspicions. Later, I saw that after Ma Mengqi joined the lord's command, he did nothing wrong, and he repeatedly made meritorious achievements and was loyal to the lord. If it is reported in the morning, I am afraid that the lord will think that he will be a minister, and he will be jealous and hateful, and slander others. Therefore, there is no retribution. ”

Liu Bei was very annoyed when he heard this, sighed in regret, and quickly rushed to meet Zhuge Liang with Fazheng. In other words, Zhuge Liang was in the middle of the mansion to seize the strategy, and suddenly heard that the left and right came to report, Liu Bei came to see, and hurriedly went out of the hall to greet him. As soon as Liu Bei saw Zhuge Liang, he apologized.

"A few days ago, I was not thoughtful, and my words were offended. Today, when I heard Zhixiao report the past, I knew that Ma Mengqi was not a person who could be trusted. The sin of the preparation party, still look at the military division, fortunately do not worry. ”

When Zhuge Liang heard this, he cast his eyes on Fa Zheng. Fa Zheng bowed slightly, bowed modestly, told the past in detail, and then apologized.

This fact is a matter of negligence, and it has nothing to do with the Lord. If the military advisor wants to increase the punishment, he is willing to accept the crime. ”

Zhuge Liang listened, his eyes closed, and his voice sank. Seeing this, Fa Zheng and Liu Bei looked at each other, not knowing what they meant. After a while, Zhuge Liang opened his eyes and first talked to the law.

"Filial piety is not reported, one is no real evidence, and the other is afraid of chaos in the inner hall, which can be blamed."

After Zhuge Liang finished speaking, he turned to Liu Bei and said again.

"Is it a sin for a lord to have heart-to-heart fellowship with his courtiers as a monarch? What's more, Ma Mengqi has repeatedly made great contributions, and it is reasonable for the lord to naturally rely on him. However, the so-called road remote knowledge horsepower has been popular for a long time. Whether Ma Mengqi is loyal or traitorous soon came to a conclusion. ”

When Liu Bei heard this, his eyes froze, and he hurriedly asked.

"How can Kong Ming say this!?"

Zhuge Liang was condensed, a pair of bright eyes like stars, shining brightly, as if the things of the world, it was difficult to escape his eyes, and said slowly.

"If Ma Mengqi has evil intentions, this time he will teach Huang Gongheng to return to beg, and ask the lord to send his brother Ma Bozhan to enter the Nanban with him. Ma Bozhan has followed Ma Mengqi since the Xiliang War, and the two brothers rely on each other and go away from home, like brothers and sisters. If Ma Mengqi really wanted to rebel, how could he put his brother in danger? ”

When Liu Bei heard this, he also felt that it was reasonable. After that, the three of them discussed for a while, and then waited for the changes, and then made a decision when Huang Quan returned. Two days later, the soldiers came to report that Huang Quan had returned to the city. When Liu Bei heard this, he went to greet Zhuge Liang, Fa Zheng and others. Before leaving, Zhuge Liang whispered in Liu Bei's ear.

Huang Gongheng tried his best to persuade the lord in the past, but I don't know if this person is in cahoots with Ma Mengqi. When we meet later, the lord can teach the soldiers to search first to see if this Huang Gongheng has collected money. ”

When Liu Bei heard this, he secretly bowed his head, and then taught Wencheng to invite a group of soldiers and horses to greet him. After a while, Liu Bei rushed to the city alley, just in time for Huang Quan and his servants. Liu Bei saw that Huang Quan was pushing a vehicle behind him, and the car was covered with a white cloth. When Liu Bei saw it, his face suddenly sank. After Huang Quan finished his salute, he saw Liu Bei's face dark, and he was full of doubts in his heart. Suddenly, I heard Liu Bei ask.

"Gongheng the vehicle behind you, what is it loading?"

When Huang Quan heard this, his mind suddenly turned, and he saw that Zhuge Liang behind Liu Bei was silently looking at himself, and he didn't feel a chill in his heart, and immediately told Liu Bei truthfully that the car was full of property, and it was Mrs. Zhurong who gave it for military use. Liu Bei heard that it was property, his face changed suddenly, and he wanted to have a seizure. At this moment, Zhuge Liang secretly stopped Liu Bei from behind, and at the same time whispered in Liu Bei's ear.

Huang Gongheng told the truth, what his heart is, for a while, he can't make a conclusion. Lord, you can ask about the handover first. ”

When Liu Bei heard this, he was sure in his heart, suppressed his anger, and asked Huang Quan. Huang Quan hurriedly replied.

"Fortunately, I was not dishonored. In accordance with the agreement, Mrs. Zhurong has ordered the three armies to retreat in a few days. However, General Ma has one thing to ask for. ”

Liu Bei's eyes narrowed into a thin slit in a flash, exuding a cold breath, but on the surface, he asked with a smile.
