The next day, in the palace of Yecheng, under the steps outside the Chaotian Palace, I saw hundreds of Dayan civil and military officers waiting here for the start of the court meeting, they chatted in groups of three or five, Li Ru, Tian Feng, Zhuge Liang, Xu Shu, Pang Tong, Han Yan and so on were all in front of them.

However, if you look closely, you will indeed find that not far to the left of this group of people, there are two men who are indeed not wearing Dayan's official uniform, and no one pays attention to them, as if they have not seen them.

One of them was dressed in black clothes, with a thin face and a short beard, and his face was unwavering, while the other was burly, with particularly thick arms, and his eyes revealed a bit of amazement.

"Cheng Zhushu, is that one of the legendary North Korean Nanyu Great Yan Shangshu Ling Han Yan" The burly man suddenly asked curiously towards a majestic man who was surrounded by many officials.

The two are really Cheng Gongying, the master of Liangzhou sent by Ma Teng and Han Sui to discuss peace, as well as Ma Teng's nephew and Ma Dai, Ma Chao's cousin.

"Yes, he is Han Zipei, who is in charge of Dayan's finances, taxes, official transfers, and other aspects of internal affairs, and his status is comparable to the existence of the two prime ministers" Cheng Gongying's eyes were filled with a hint of admiration and longing.

"Then, that one, is it the Great Yan Zuo Xiang Tian Feng who has the gold medal for avoiding death" Ma Dai asked expectantly again.

"Really, this one who has served the Yuan family for two generations, helped Yuan Shao Beiping the north, and helped Yuan Xi establish Dayan, can be described as the pillar of optimus" Cheng Gongying sighed, Tian Feng's status is not something that can be obtained by hard work, and envy is useless.

"I used to hear others say that Dayan was very strong, but this time I came to know that this is true, you look at the court meeting, there are more than 100 officials participating, even if I add up all the high-level officials in Liangzhou, it is less than half!" Ma Dai exclaimed.

Cheng Ying smiled bitterly and said, "Bo Zhan, apart from this, haven't you found anything else along the way?" ”

"Others," Ma Dai wondered.

"Hey!" Seeing this scene, Cheng Gongying sighed slightly, and said: "Along the way, we passed through many cities, or as long as we enter the state from Liangzhou, it seems to be the difference between heaven and earth, Dayan encourages industry and commerce, prosper the economy, fight corruption, the people are happy, and the people's livelihood is rich. The population of Dayan may be restored before the Yellow Turban Rebellion, this is really amazing, I asked the local officials, the number of household registrations in a city is almost comparable to the population of a county in Liangzhou, which represents how strong Dayan's national strength and people's power will be in the future."

Ma Dai immediately took a breath of cool air and said anxiously: "Master book, in fact, we can also learn from Liangzhou."

"I can't study," Cheng Gongying shook his head.

"Why?" Ma Dai was puzzled.

"The first Great Yan King is in power, completely separated from the Han Dynasty, and is self-contained, and I Liangzhou still has to obey Changyi in many aspects, which is the limit; Second: Da Yan won Guandu, two Goguryeo, three exterminated the two clans, recovered the entire grassland, and brought a million armor under his command, the people of the north were filled with supreme pride, and they already called themselves Yan people, not Han people, but the people of Liangzhou did not have this sense of belonging at all, and the flow was too great, which was the limit; Third, my Liangzhou was originally a barren land, with a sparse population, and it was not as rich as the four northern states, which was the limit of heaven; Fourth: Yan King Yuan Xi IV was born in the third duke, his status is very noble, and in addition to the continuous big victories, he has the ability, prestige, and capital to suppress all the existence that dares to oppose the new policy, so there is a Shihan big test, and Liangzhou now really needs the help of the Dashi clan, this is a human limit, with these four restrictions, it is impossible for my Liangzhou to catch up with Dayan" Cheng Gongying sighed.

"So serious," Ma Dai was full of surprise.

Cheng Gongying nodded slightly, the gap between Liangzhou and Dayan was too big, and he even felt that the reason why Yuan Xi did not send troops now was not because he was afraid of the alliance between Liangzhou and Cao Cao, but because he planned to lay a solid foundation and then calm it down in one fell swoop.

"Haha, Your Excellency can have such insight, it is really talented" At this time, an appreciative laugh suddenly sounded from behind Cheng Gongying and Ma Dai.

The two of them were taken aback, and when they looked back, they saw an official-looking official with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, but his eyes unconsciously appeared in front of him with a hint of sharpness.

"This official Dali Temple Shaoqing Sima Yi" Sima Yi said politely.

After Cheng Gongying and Ma Dai hurriedly returned the salute, Cheng Gongying opened his mouth and said modestly: "It's just nonsense below, which makes the adults laugh."

"No, no, your four limits, the essence of the situation, shows a deep understanding of civil affairs, the current situation, I don't know what Your Excellency said" Sima Yi asked curiously.

"Under it, it is Liang Hou's main book, Cheng Gongying," Cheng Gongying hugged his fists.

"I see, but although Lianghou is a hero, he is not worthy of your talent, if your Excellency is willing, this official is willing to introduce you to my Dayan, how" Sima Yi smiled.

"What!" Ma Dai's face froze, and his gaze at Sima Yi was extremely unkind, they didn't have a few talents in Liangzhou, and they even wanted to take it away.

"Lord Sima is serious, although I said the four limits just now, as long as my lord is wise, I can still defeat the strong with the weak, after all, although our Liangzhou is poor, there are still 150,000 iron horsemen, and there is no problem in keeping the foundation" Cheng Gongying immediately proudly stated his position.

"Haha, the world must be divided for a long time, and it must be divided for a long time, how can Liangzhou be spared, this is not a war, but a matter of the times" After Sima Yi finished with a smile, he left directly.

Looking at the confident back, the proud Cheng Gongying showed a trace of helplessness on his face

"Arrogant what? Sooner or later, let them see how powerful the big brother is," Ma Dai said angrily.

After Sima Yi left, he came directly to Tian Feng's side and whispered a few words.

"Oh!" Tian Feng was surprised a few times, glanced at Cheng Gongying, and said with a smile: "How can such a talent be buried in Liangzhou, this matter will be told to the king."

"Zuo Xiang is wise," Sima Yi said with a smile.

At this moment, a huge gong suddenly sounded, echoing in everyone's ears.

The court meeting officially began, and the hundred officials of Dayan immediately stood in a neat position, divided into four rows, standing proudly, and under the leadership of Tian Feng and Li Ru, they headed towards the Chaotian Palace.

Seeing this scene, Ma Dai was a little eager and said: "When will I have such an imposing meeting in Liangzhou?"

"This kind of momentum can only be possessed by a real dynasty," Cheng Gongying sighed.

Soon after, a series of solemn shouts were heard.

"Xuan, Lianghou envoy Cheng Gongying, Ma Dai will see you"

"Xuan, Lianghou envoy Cheng Gongying, Ma Dai will see you"

Hearing this, Cheng Gongying's face froze, and he said solemnly: "Bo Zhan, this time is not only about the survival of Liangzhou, but also about the future of the two marquis.

"Don't worry," Ma Dai nodded emphatically.

"Good"

When the two of them came to the door of the magnificent hall along the steps, they immediately took off the boots on their feet, bent down and lowered their heads, and stepped over the civil and military officials to the main hall, and said deeply:

"Lianghou's master book becomes Gongying"

"Ma Dai, the general of Anbei under the command of Marquis Qin"

"Meet His Royal Highness King Yan, His Royal Highness Chitose Chitose Chitose"

"Hahaha, become the master, General Ma doesn't have to be polite" The majestic voice sounded.

"King Xie Yan" Cheng Gongying still lowered his head after being grateful, but Ma Dai couldn't help it, his eyes couldn't help but look at the high platform, he wanted to see what this undisputed king of the younger generation who was better than his eldest brother Ma Chao looked like.
