Ma Riyan came very late.

He looked at He Hao, who was described as withered, and his eyes showed unbearability. "Birch, why bother......"

"How's my wine in Nanshire?" He Hao interrupted Ma Riyan's words, raised his eyelids, and his eyes were as cold as a sword. Zhou Yu set up a banquet to entertain Ma Riyan, the guests and hosts were happy, Ma Riyan's face still had a sense of wine, and his tone had a strong aroma of wine, which was incompatible with the cold room.

Ma Riyan frowned, and his tone became indifferent. "The wine in Nanjun is good, but the hospitality you ask for is not good. He Boqiu, you and I have been friends for decades, as light as water. I am just a scholar, I studied the scriptures when I was young, and I studied the scriptures after entering the office, I don't have the passion of your party members, so you party members don't look down on me, everyone goes their own way, what's wrong? ”

"If you don't come to Nanyang, you have to go your own way......"

"I don't want to come to Nanyang." Ma Riyan raised his hand and interrupted He Hao. He Hao's face changed, his anger surged, and he sneered: "I haven't seen you for a few months, I don't expect Uncle Weng to be so intense, but he has the demeanor of my party." ”

"I didn't want to come to Nanyang, it was Wang Zishi who asked me to come, and I repeatedly refused, so I barely made the trip." Ma Riyan emphasized again, but his tone softened, and his eyelids drooped, avoiding He Hao's gaze. He sighed a few times in succession, and then raised his head to look at He Hao. "Boqiu, I really don't understand, why do you have to provoke trouble when you have a chance to avoid war? Luoyang has been ruined, do you have to destroy Guanzhong to have fun? Is your revolution for the sake of the party members or for the people? ”

"Uncle Ma Weng, your books have been read in vain." He Hao's face flushed with a strange flush.

Ma Riyan shook his head, turned and walked out the door. "My book may have been read in vain, but even if I don't read, I know that even if you win, there will be no people who will eat pot pulp. He Boqiu, I came to see you originally hoping that you could persuade Wang Zishi not to go his own way, but now it seems that you are all the same people, and I don't need to say it. Ma Riyan stood at the door, his eyes were rare and sharp. He said word by word: "But you remember, the Yuan family has more than 50 people, and millions of people in Guanzhong and Luoyang are waiting for you on Huangquan Road." ”

He Hao was furious, jumped up, and reached out to draw the knife, but he was over sixty years old and had been recuperating for several months, and he had never exercised so violently. Just waited for Ma Riyan for too long, his legs were already numb, although he stood up, his feet were like pins and needles, and his body swayed, Xun You and Xin Bi hurriedly rushed up to support him. Ma Riyan shook his head, let out a long sigh, and turned to leave.

"Cai Yong can't stay, and Ma Riyan can't stay either." He Hao gasped. "Otherwise, it will be a slander ...... history"

"Sir." Xun You reminded: "This is Wancheng. ”

"I know this is Wancheng, and I know that Zhou Yu is Cai Yong's son-in-law." He Hao's face was like gold paper, and his face was full of cold sweat. "However, I know more about Sun Ce's sinister intentions. It's just a pity that I knew it too late. It's all the prince's fault, and it's wrong again and again. ”

Xun You and Xin Bi's faces were also ugly. They understand what He Hao means, Ma Riyan is just that, Cai Yong used to be Dong Zhuo's close minister, he knows too much about what has happened in the past few years. Cai Yong's teacher Hu Guang entered the government when he was Emperor Xiao'an, served in six dynasties, and was an official for 30 years, and almost experienced the entire party incident as a bystander. Part of Cai Yong's current history writing comes from Hu Guang. It is up to him to write history, and the things that the party members have done will be revealed to the world.

Xun You was the first to calm down and persuaded: "Sir, don't worry, if Yuan Benchu succeeds, even if Cai Yong writes a history book, it will not be able to spread all over the world." ”

"Yes, yes." He Hao nodded again and again. "Let's go, let's go to Yecheng."

Sun Ce crossed the Yuyuan Pass and entered Henan.

When he was in Yingchuan, Sun Ce had already felt the impact of the military disaster, with deserted houses everywhere, new graves everywhere, and occasional bones on the roadside, and the once prosperous place is now full of depression. But after entering Luoyang, he knew that the situation in Yingchuan was quite good. Although Yingchuan is sparsely populated, you can occasionally see people in the pavilion. With the stability of Yingchuan, more and more people returned to their hometowns, and the population gradually increased, developing in a good direction.

But there is no such sign in Luoyang. Sun Ce walked forty or fifty miles, and he didn't see a few people, the fertile land that was once sold for ten gold and one acre on the roadside is now overgrown with grass, and there are not many new graves, many are white bones, and the ditches on the roadside can be seen everywhere, and the grass abounds. There are no people, no pedestrians, but you can often see wild dogs with green eyes, hiding in the grass far away, peeking at Sun Ce and others.

That's the look that only wild dogs that have eaten too much human flesh.

Even the real elite, accustomed to killing and blood, saw this scene, the soldiers of the righteous battalion were still silent, no one spoke, just buried their heads in the road. On the contrary, the driver who drove the car for Guo Jia was not affected and drove the car steadily.

Two days later, Sun Ce crossed Yishui and really entered Luoyang.

Pang Tong came to greet him, and Han Dang led five hundred horsemen to accompany him to protect him. I haven't seen him for a few months, Pang Tong has run around, his body is much stronger, he walks fast and steadily, and he looks like a martial artist in the army. The ferry had just landed, and before it could stop, he jumped up in one lunge.

"I've seen the general."

"Haha, Shiyuan, I haven't seen you for a few months, you seem to be a different person, a bit of a big husband. Zhang Zifu must be happy to see it. ”

Hearing Sun Ce mention Zhang Zifu, Pang Tong was a little embarrassed, but he still couldn't help asking, "The general has seen her recently?" ”

"Yes, she thought you were in Pingyu, so she went to Pingyu. I'm disappointed that I didn't see you. ”

"The general is joking with me again." Pang Tong was modest, but the joy in his eyes couldn't be hidden. "General, Luoyang Ling Zhou Yi is also here."

Sun Ce didn't dare to slack off, Zhou Yi was Zhou Yu's father, and he was also equivalent to his elder, not to mention that their family had received the favor of the Zhou family in Shu County. He hurriedly rushed over and took the initiative to meet Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi is in his early forties, and his appearance is a bit similar to Zhou Yu, but he is very thin. Luoyang has suffered a lot of disasters in recent years, and it is not easy for him to do this Luoyang order. Seeing that Sun Ce took the initiative to visit him, he was very satisfied, chatted with Sun Ce for a while, and inquired about some situations. He often corresponded with Zhou Yu, and he was clear about Zhou Yu's affairs in Nanyang, but he didn't care very much. What he wanted to know more was the situation in Lujiang. Lujiang was seized by Chen Deng, and the powerful families of Lujiang were forced to cooperate with Chen Deng, and the Zhou family could not stay out of the matter. has a relationship with Sun Ce, and if the Zhou family has the slightest change, it may be eradicated by Chen Deng.

"Don't worry, so far, your Zhou family is still safe, and there are no casualties." Sun Ce said with a smile.

Zhou Yi let out a sigh of relief. He understood what Sun Ce meant, there were no casualties, but the property damage was not small. But he was content. It is already a great fortune to be immortal in troubled times, and it is simply an extravagant hope to have no loss. He is Luoyang Ling, seeing so many powerful people disappearing in just a few months or even a few days, where can he dare to have that naïve idea.
