Ji County, Mafu.

"Uncle Wang, is Neiko really pregnant?" Ma Teng looked at Uncle Wang with a worried face, and then looked at Zhang Ning, who was forced by Ma Teng on the bed to take the pulse, as if he was afraid that Zhang Ning's judgment would be wrong.

"Hehe, congratulations to General Ma, Mrs. Zun is indeed pregnant." Uncle Wang looked at Ma Tengzuo and smiled.

"Haha! Good! Good! Good! Come and see the reward! Ma Teng laughed when he heard this, and then stopped paying attention to Uncle Wang, and immediately threw himself on the side of the bed, took Zhang Ning's hand and looked at her affectionately and said, "Madam, it's hard work." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Ning suddenly couldn't help but glance at Ma Teng, "It's not time to work hard!" Can you rest assured? Can I get up? ”

"Huh? Yes. Madame be careful! Ma Teng was stunned when he heard this, and then saw that Zhang Ning was about to get up, so he hurriedly stepped forward to support him. The same is true, and Ma Chao, who has been standing aside silently.

"You two...... Zhang Ning saw the appearance of the two, and immediately smiled helplessly, "My body is not weak to this extent. ”

Hearing this, two men, one big and one small, stretched out their hands in the air, looking at Zhang Ning with an embarrassed expression, the appearance of wanting to help but not daring to help suddenly amused Zhang Ning. "Two nerds!" Zhang Ningjiao sighed, at that moment, it was as if flowers had bloomed, which made the two men even more sluggish.

"Ning'er is so beautiful......"

"Mother is so beautiful......"

Seeing this, Zhang Ning shook his head a little helplessly, and then suddenly said to Ma Chao, "Chao'er, you go and close the door, I have something to say to the two of you." ”

"Well, Chao'er, you go out first...... Well? Chao'er also wants to listen? Ma Teng said subconsciously when he heard this, but then he reflected it and asked with a look of disbelief.

"Of course, after all, Chao'er is also a man who stands up to the sky, and he is qualified to participate in these things." Zhang Ning looked at Ma Chao and said with a smile.

"No!" Hearing Zhang Ning's words, Ma Chao suddenly responded loudly, and then gave Ma Xiu and Ma Dai a smug look, and waved his hand at the same time, as if to say, "We adults are going to talk about business, you children go and play." ”

"Humph!" Ma Xiu and Ma Dai snorted coldly at Ma Chao at the same time, but they still walked out of the room honestly.

After closing the door, under Zhang Ning's signal, the three of them sat around the table, and Zhang Ning changed his serious expression and said, "Gentleman, this matter, the concubine thinks that the gentleman must go!" And not only do you have to go, but you also have to show that you are very loyal to Dong Zhuo! ”

"Do you really want to support Dong Zhuo? But I think ...... The victory of the coalition may be relatively large. Hearing this, Ma Teng glanced at Zhang Ning cautiously, and when he saw that her expression did not change, he said again, "According to the news, among the coalition this time, there are not only Yuan's disciples, but also the unequaled Marquis Li Yi joined, plus Cao Cao, whose reputation is not low, I am afraid that Dong Zhuo will face the strength of the entire four states of Bingzhou, Jizhou, Yanzhou, and Yuzhou." ”

"Yes, but because of this, Dong Zhuo has hope of winning! And it's not small! Zhang Ning looked at Ma Teng and said with a smile, "If the same Sizhou soldiers are only one of them, Li Yi, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, and even Cao Cao, I will not agree to send troops to aid Dong Zhuo." But the four of them, Cao Cao's reputation can be ignored at the least, Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao are already incompatible, and Li Yi is enough to make Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu jealous, in this case, how can the coalition succeed? ”

"This ......" Ma Teng frowned when he heard this.

Seeing this, Zhang Ning explained again, "Then Cao Cao's proposal to crusade against Dong Zhuo may really be for the sake of the court and the saint, but then Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, I'm afraid they want to replace Dong Zhuo's position." As for that Li Yi...... The concubine can't see through him, but according to his past style, I'm afraid he has no interest in the court struggle. In this case, how could they work together to deal with Dong Zhuo? ”

"Moreover, Luoyang has a large population, and Dong Zhuo has no shortage of troops at all, not to mention the Xiongguan around Luoyang. As long as he can hold on for a period of time, even if there is no gentleman to help, the concubine thinks that Dong Zhuo can also hold on to Luoyang. Zhang Ning said in a deep voice.

"That's it......" Ma Teng frowned and pondered Zhang Ning's words when he heard this, he really didn't want to get involved in this kind of thing, because it was too dangerous. Whether it is Dong Zhuo or Dong Lianjun, it is a behemoth that Ma Teng cannot provoke, let alone leave Liangzhou for Luoyang.

"Not bad! So gentleman you must go! And you have to take the elite with you! Only in this way can you show your importance! It will also make that Dong Zhuo value you! Maybe by then, you won't be a mere general! Zhang Ning looked at Ma Teng and said in a deep voice.

"But Madame......" Ma Teng looked at Zhang Ning's stomach and hesitated again, he was a little moved, but he was worried about Zhang Ning. Although she was only about 2 months pregnant, she didn't know when she would come back when she went to Luoyang this time. At that time, only Zhang Ning will be left alone in Ji County, how can he not worry?

"The gentleman doesn't have to worry about the concubine, in Ji County, no one can hurt me. Not only Huang Da and them, but also Chao'er~ He will protect the concubine closely~" Zhang Ning looked at Ma Teng and said with a smile, and at the same time turned his head to look at Ma Chao, who had been pretending to be serious, but in fact, there was basically Ma Chao who didn't understand.

"Father, go with confidence! The child will definitely protect his mother! When Ma Chao heard Zhang Ning's words, he immediately said impatiently.

"Stinky boy! What does it mean to go with peace of mind? When Ma Teng heard this, he immediately knocked Ma Chao's head angrily. However, with such words, Ma Teng also let go of most of his heart. Of course, it is not that Ma Chao is at ease, but that he is at ease with Huang Da. Because during this period of time, Huang Da and the others have become an important assistant under Ma Teng's command, commanding the troops in various places.

Speaking of which, if it weren't for them, Ma Teng would have had to work a lot more if he wanted to occupy the three counties of Longxi, Wudu and Hanyang so smoothly.

"Gentleman, in the opinion of the concubine, I'm afraid this war won't last long, and it's very likely that when you come back, I won't be born yet~" Seeing Ma Teng's appearance, Zhang Ning persuaded again.

"Since that's the case, okay, I'll lead the army to the capital to help that Dong Zhuo!" Hearing this, Ma Teng nodded in response. As he spoke, he took Zhang Ning's hand and said with a smile, "This is not only for the Ma family, but also for you and the unborn child." Speaking of this, Ma Teng smiled again and turned his head to look at Ma Chao on the side, "Of course, it's also for you." ”
