Chapter 69: The Past

The next day, when Ma Yun opened his eyes, Zhao Ziying had already gotten up and didn't know where she went. Ma Yun lay lazily on the bed, enjoying a moment of peace. In the past two days, I will return to the south, and this trip to the Central Plains not only got acquainted with Guo Rong, Li Chongjin, Shi Shouxin and other northern bigwigs, but also married the coveted wife and concubine, in the words of the 21st century, it is a double harvest of career and love. Even if there is a bit of estrangement with Zhao Kuangyin, but now that Zhao Ziying is here, it doesn't hurt. With such a relationship, when you return to the south, you can let go of your hands and feet, do a good job, and even if you fail, you can go to the north to join these brothers.

Ma Yun was thinking about his thoughts, and the door over there was pushed open with a "squeak", but it was Zhao Ziying who walked in with a basin of water. She walked to the bed and smiled a little shyly: "Husband, get up quickly." Guo Daguan and the others are discussing and preparing to go to Hedong. ”

Ma Yun sat up and kissed Ziying, and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll get up immediately, and you will change your husband's clothes." Ziying slapped Ma Yun lightly and said with a smile: "Get up, it's not good to let Guo Sange and them wait for a long time." ”

Ma Yun said while getting dressed: "I think Zhao Pu likes Jing Niang a lot, why don't we match them." ”

Seeing Zhao Ziying smiling and silent, Ma Yun said again: "I think Zhao Pu is talented, why don't you let him help Kuang Yin, what do you think?" ”

Ziying was stunned for a moment and said, "Then what should you do?" Don't you need someone to help you? ”

It's really an outgoing girl.

Seeing that Ma Yun was a little surprised, Ziying said with a smile: "Brother Liao has already told my mother your identity on the day he proposed, after all, you need someone to help you in the south." ”

Ziying suddenly whispered again: "I see that Zhao Pu likes Qiao Niang, so he deliberately took Qiao Niang with him." ”

Ma Yun was completely stunned at this moment, and Ziying urged: "Hurry up and go out, what else is there to do." By the way, you don't have to give him the 1,000 taels of gift slip you stuffed to my brother yesterday, if he asks you for it, you can let him come to me. ”

In the front hall of the inn, Guo Rong, Zhao Kuangyin and others were discussing their future plans. Zhao Kuangyin said: "Third Brother Guo, are you going to go directly to Guo Dashuai?" ”

Guo Rong nodded and said, "Father, I have written to me many times to help. I'm going to go with Li Chongjin and Zhang Yongde, what are your plans? ”

Zhao Kuangyin looked at Shi Shouxin and said, "We are naturally the only third brother who is the first to look forward. ”

While they were talking, Ma Yun walked in and said, "Brothers, you got up really early, this... ”

Before he finished speaking, Li Chongjin said, "Brother, your daughter-in-law is really amazing." Then he looked Ma Yun up and down with his eyes.

Ma Yun was furious by him, and hurriedly said to Guo Rong: "The third brother is going to Hedong, and the younger brother is really reluctant." ”

Guo Rong sighed and said: "There is a banquet in the world, you and my brothers will finally have a moment of separation, and when the world is calm, we will meet each other." ”

Everyone was quite reluctant in their hearts, Li Chongjin said: "Don't follow the example of a woman's mother-in-law, today we will get drunk and rest, and tomorrow we will set off separately, okay?" ”

Guo Rong said with a smile: "Don't look at the old four, it's really true, all the brothers are heroes in the world, and they have the ambition to govern the country and the country, how can they cry and cry like a woman." We get drunk at noon, rest well in the evening, and go our separate ways early tomorrow morning. ”

Everyone applauded. So, set up a banquet and drink heartily.

When Ma Yun woke up the next day, Guo Rong, Zhao Kuangyin and others were afraid of saying goodbye to their injuries, so they left early. Ma Yun was helpless, so he ordered Liao Renyong and others to prepare their luggage and return south.

They were delayed in Yanzhou for a few days, and the explanation of the imperial court that they were making trouble in Bianjing had already been passed on. Sang Weihan not only did not hold them accountable for breaking into the Gongsheng Camp and killing the Five Tigers of the Right Camp without permission, but he also did not even mention this matter at all, but only said that there were Khitan spies that day, and they set fire to Bianjing everywhere to disturb the public and the public.

And the Great Chu mission headed by Tuoba Heng had already arrived in Bianjing more than ten days ago. Whether it is for the sake of stabilizing the political situation, or for the idea of showing the majesty of the Jin Dynasty, in short, the Great Jin Emperor Shi Chonggui was extremely happy, and received Tuoba Heng with a national ceremony, and followed the example of Zhu Wen, the Taizu of Liang, and canonized Ma Xifan as the king of Chu again. At the same time, he also sent a Hanlin scholar as an envoy to visit the state of Chu to preach the royal way and canonize Ma Xifan by the way.

The imperial court did not pursue it, Ma Yun pressed his heart, and Tuoba Hengdu had already returned south, Ma Yun was anxious at the moment, and went to the southwest from Yanzhou to beat the horse and whip him.

Maybe the robbers along the way knew that Ma Yun and his party were not easy to mess with, or maybe it was because after the Khitan retreated, the world was rough, and the road was actually calm, and they soon arrived in Tangzhou, as long as they went to Suizhou and Jiangling, they would go to Yuezhou.

When he was about to go to Suizhou, Ma Yun suddenly remembered that Shentu Congjian was coming, so he turned to Xiangzhou (today's Xiangyang), and heard Ma Yun say that he was going to find Shentu Congjian, Ziying's face seemed to change a little, Ma Yun suddenly remembered what Shentu Congjian said that day, so he asked: "Lady, do you know this Shentu Congjian?" ”

But Zhao Ziying didn't seem to hear it, looking into the distance, not knowing what she was thinking. Ma Yun reluctantly pushed Zhao Ziying, Zhao Ziying reacted and said with a smile: "When I remembered some of the past, I was distracted, what did you say just now?" ”

Ma Yun was embarrassed by her to ask again, so he said: "Speaking of which, it is quite dramatic that I know Shentu Congjian." Where do you guess I met him? ”

Zhao Ziying was a little absent-minded, and said casually: "Is it in the Yangtze River?" ”

Ma Yun glanced at Zhao Ziying, and was about to speak, when he suddenly heard Qiao Niang next to him "sneer" and laughed: "Uncle, you probably don't know yet, a few months ago, someone gave my young lady a hanging, saying that if you go south in April, you can find Ruyi Langjun if you encounter water and save horses." So... ”

Ziying glanced at Qiao Niang, and Qiao Niang hurriedly stopped talking. Looking at Ma Yun's somewhat strange appearance, Zhao Ziying said slowly: "At that time, I was bored, so I came to the vicinity of Jiangling, and I happened to hear Shentu Congjian and their secret discussion, saying that they were going to rob a person surnamed Ma on the Yangtze River. I kicked the door open, ready to do the right thing for the sky, but unfortunately Shentu Congjian desperately pegged me, and the others actually escaped. So in a fit of rage, I whipped him a few times and threw him into the Yangtze River. ”

Ma Yun suddenly wondered why Shentu Congjian was so embarrassed that day, it turned out to be like this. Saving the horse in the water, Ma Yun was stunned for a moment, and looked at Zhao Ziying in disdain, could it be the hexagram that Chen passed on to Ziying?

Zhao Ziying looked at Ma Yun's appearance, somewhat understood what he was thinking, and explained with a little red on her face: "In February, I once met Chen Chuan, and I heard that the Huashan faction has always relied on divination to live and cheat people out of money, so I can't help but want to teach him a lesson. Who knows, who knows that it may be that he thinks he is a martial arts senior, disdain to fight with me, at that time I shot quite hard, he was almost injured in my hand, at that time he said that my marriage is extremely unsmooth, only two months later, to the south "water to save the horse" to find Ruyi Langjun. Then while I was stunned, I turned around and walked away. I was also skeptical, until I met you, I didn't know that Senior Chen was really good at easy to reason. ”

Hearing this, Ma Yun was dumbfounded for a while, and he didn't know what to think.
