"Lord, you let Zhang Xiu attack Shouchun this time, which has angered Jiangdong Sun Ce." Qin Yu of Chang'an said to Ma Chao with some concern: "In this way, the Ma family has offended Jingzhou Liu Biao and Jiangdong Sun Ce in a row this time, so they only put all their chips on that Liu Bei, is it too .......?"

"Do you lose more than you lose?" Ma Chao sorted out his appearance, and after seeing that he was still as dazzling as the sun in the mirror, he shook the brocade robe behind him with satisfaction, and said disapprovingly: "Jingzhou Liu Biao's side doesn't need to say much, just the Ma family can explain perfunctory." As for that Sun Ce, hmph....... what his idea is, how can I not know?! ”

Qin Yu was silent again, as a regulator of the relationship between the Ma family and the princes of the Han family, he had long been well aware of this entanglement of interests that was like a sea. Ma Chao sent Meng He of the Ministry of Rites to Jiangdong to communicate well before he conquered Jizhou, but Sun Ce directly blocked Meng He from the door. When Ma Cao's two families discussed Yuan Shao together, Sun Ce suddenly accepted the titles of Ming and Han generals and Wucheng Marquis canonized by the imperial court, and secretly agreed to marry Cao Cao, and brazenly sent 150,000 troops into Yangzhou to rescue Cao Cao from the danger of Xuzhou.

On the surface, it seems that Jiangdong Group has seized an opportunity to take off and grow. But anyone with a heart can see that in the position of the two major crocodiles in the Central Plains, the Ma family and the Cao family, Sun Ce of Jiangdong tended to choose Cao Cao of Yanzhou. Otherwise, no matter how brave and arrogant Sun Ce was, it would be impossible to turn away the envoy of the Ma family.

"For people who can be won for and valuable, I, Ma Chao, can be courteous and virtuous, and deign to give in. But for the guy who can't win it but still keeps quiet, I can't let him take me for a fool! As soon as these words came out, the iceberg-like murderous aura around Ma Chao's body suddenly flashed, and the figure in the mirror became a little more awe-inspiring. However, this murderous aura disappeared in a flash, and then Ma Chao put on a smiling face: "Let's go, go to Cheng'an Palace, the happy moment of slaughtering fat sheep with a big knife, don't let these upside-down topics affect our beautiful mood......"

Qin Yu, who was following behind Ma Chao, looked at the young and strong back, and couldn't help but show a little awe: this young family head has grown up too fast, and his talent for understanding the overall situation of the people's hearts and his decisive choices have given him an indescribably cold and mysterious leadership style.

However, there is still one word in his mouth, Qin Yu really doesn't vomit or be unhappy. At the cost of angering Ma Chao, he took two quick steps and said, "Lord, why did you identify Liu Bei like that?" Although the Ma family took the initiative to show goodwill, it would make Liu Bei reciprocate with all his might, is it really possible to use this person to clamp down on Cao Cao and Sun Ce? ”

Ma Chao stopped, and there was no trace of emotion on Gujing Wubo's face. Qin Yu secretly gritted his teeth, and said again: "Weichen is brave, this tiger is a trouble, the Ma family has a matter of serving the first prince in front of the Ma family, and then there are Huns repeatedly as a reference......

In the second half of the words, Qin Yu couldn't say more. However, there was no response to the clenched heart for a long time, Qin Yu couldn't help but feel worried, and glanced up at Ma Chao. I saw that Ma Chao seemed to be also deep in thought, and muttered: "Raising a tiger?" …… Liu Bei is not a tiger, but an out-and-out Zhongshan wolf, which is much more difficult to raise than a tiger. However, the Ma family rose in troubled times, if they didn't play tricks and control yin and yang like this, how could they sit firmly in Diaoyutai and watch the situation? ”

"Since this is the case, it is ....... the lord to be prepared" Hearing Ma Chao comment on Liu Bei, the gloom in Qin Yu's eyes was even worse. However, thinking that Ma Chao has always had a unique way of calculating others, he only showed respect for listening to and being taught.

And Qin Yu's guess was indeed good, as soon as the words fell, Ma Chao's eyes returned to normal, and there was even a little sly flash: "Liu Bei was selected this time, do you think my brain suddenly entered the water?" ”

"Wechen would like to hear about it." There is no way, since the leader likes this tune, Qin Yu can only cooperate with peace of mind to meet the vanity needs of the leader.

"Liu Bei is a wolf or a tiger, it's too early to say. However, at present, it seems that he is indeed an important chess piece used by the Ma family to divert the situation. And whether he can be used by the Ma family must be tested by practice. This time he sent Liu Bei to rescue Yuan Shu, in fact, he offended Cao Cao, Sun Ce, and Liu Biao at the same time, which is similar to Natou's name. In the future, he wanted to survive in the isolated cracks of Xinye, but there was no other way than to hug the thighs of the Ma family. ”

Qin Yu nodded, this trick was very familiar to him. I just feel that Ma Chao now doesn't use a knife to kill people, and he is more handy.

"In addition, Liu Bei has the name of the emperor of the Han Dynasty after all. And our Ma family will soon have to be on a par with this Han family that exists in name only, if Liu Bei, the imperial uncle of the Han Dynasty, takes the lead in recognizing the status of the Ma family, it is conceivable that even though there are still many voices of opposition under the Han Dynasty, the dust has settled, and the rest depends on how the Ma family operates......"

After hearing this reason, Qin Yu's body suddenly shook. Although during this period, the Ma family's military generals were calling for the Ma family to fight against the Han family more and more, but after hearing the clues of the specific operation from Ma Chao in person, Qin Yu suddenly realized that the young man in front of him had always hidden this grand but original government affairs in his chest, and he quietly paved the way.

However, Ma Chao just has a special ability, except on the battlefield. He can always make his subordinates shock him noble and cold for a moment, and suddenly hear him out of tune, which is ridiculous. For example, Qin Yu at this time, when he was slightly stunned, he saw Ma Chao's five fingers shaking in front of his eyes: "What? Shocked? Let's go, the poor big fat sheep Cao Tai in front is still waiting for us to sharpen our knives. ”

"My lord, can you do this in the future?" Qin Yu smiled wryly and replied very intimately: "This will damage your prestige as a leader. ”

"I'm afraid of damaging your fragile self-esteem, after all, under the light of my bullish leader, you will look dull......."

"Okay, then thank you for your compassion ...... the lord."

At this time, Xun You, who was waiting in the Cheng'an Palace, had already come to urge. Naturally, a master like Xun Yu can already make the urging watertight, but after he respectfully gave a salute, he smiled like a spring breeze on his face: "Lord, Liu Bei has already had news." ”

Ma Chao didn't even receive the battle report in Xun You's hand, and his face slowly bloomed: "Gongda must be in a hurry, right?" In that case, let us go and meet the poor Cao Ang Cao Tai...... I really don't know, why do those people in the Cao family always think that they are too smart? ”

Xun You and Qin Yu looked at each other and smiled at the same time, and followed along. At this time, Cao Tai and Cao Ang, who had been waiting in the Cheng'an Hall for a long time, looked at the friendly but meaningful eyes of the Ma family, and always felt that there was a strange and inexplicable atmosphere fermenting faintly. It's like two lambs falling into a wolf's den......

And when Ma Chao finally appeared, the two of them saw the young man who seemed to be born in brocade clothes, and saw the smile on the young man's face and His Highness looked at each other. The uneasiness in their hearts became more and more serious, as if the wolves, who had already bared their fangs, had finally waited for the first wolf to nod in agreement, and even the cracks of their bones began to chill.

"Cao Tai, the envoy of Sikong Mansion, see the hussar general......." Cao Tai was still bowing at the moment, and the words that had been organized in his heart dissipated in this strange atmosphere.

"If my guess is right, General Cao Xiao is here, I'm afraid I shouldn't be a hussar general, right?" Ma Chao did not wave his hand to excuse Cao Tai, but sat on the main seat with a smile and went straight to the point.

Cao Tai's face was extremely gloomy at that time, and he knew that the deep meaning of Ma Chao's words was to ask Jizhou for the promise he made when he released Cao Cao. Although Cao Gong had agreed to this promise and clearly let him bring the holy decree to come, he was blatantly asked to come out by Ma Chao like this, and he felt that the entire Cao clan he represented had been insulted.

So, he came up with a very helpless move, wanting to save the disadvantage of this appearance. got up directly at the moment, took out a yellow silk thing from his arms, and said solemnly: "Hussar General, Yongdinghou, Yongzhou Horse Husbandry Super Order!" ”

Any prince, even if he disdains it, must bow down and bow down when he receives the holy decree. Cao Tai didn't have much feeling for that Han family in his heart, all he wanted was to see Ma Chao kneeling in front of him!

But Ma Chao still sat on the main seat for a long time, his eyes flickered quietly and smartly, and his body did not move at all.......
