Early the next morning, Ma Chao looked at the sleeping Diao Chan by the bedside, and there seemed to be a satisfied smile on Sakura's lips. He couldn't help but smile, and after a gentle kiss on Diao's forehead, he got up lightly.

As soon as he opened the door, Ma Chao's face froze a little. Because it was none other than the person standing outside the door, it was the object of his detailed conversation with Diao Chan yesterday: Da Qiao.

"Come back and come with me to visit Your Majesty." Da Qiao didn't see the expression on Ma Chao's face, and he looked preoccupied. After a hurried glance at Ma Chao, he said.

Her tone was also casual, without the intention of soliciting anything, as if she was sure that Ma Chao would comply.

In fact, the exchange between the two is already a bit unusual. In the past, Ma Chao saw Da Qiao's embarrassed look, and he had already taken the initiative to speak up and be concerned. Although Da Qiao has committed to Ma Chao, the strange thing is that the relationship between the two is still different from that between men and women in ordinary love. Ma Chao always felt that Da Qiao had always dominated this relationship between them. Sometimes, even though the two are cordial and close, Ma Chao still feels that she is far away from him.

That kind of estrangement is psychological. At the same time, it is also a continuation of the relationship between the two in the previous life.

Although Ma Chao's identity has long been different, after Da Qiao summoned Ma Chao's inner extravagance overnight. She successfully continued the pattern of men chasing women in her previous life, and Ma Chao was also willing to find a trace of her previous life in this era, and Da Qiao was indeed very measured in doing anything, so that the unequal relationship between the two gradually became a routine.

However, today is different, thinking that yesterday Da Qiao was still undressed to take care of Liu Xie, and this morning he didn't even say a greeting and dragged him to visit Liu Xie. Ma Chao's brows furrowed slightly unnaturally, and an indescribable disgust arose for Da Qiao in his heart.

"What's wrong with you?" At this time, Da Qiao, who had already taken half a step, finally discovered Ma Chao's abnormality, she looked back at Ma Chao suspiciously, as if waiting for Ma Chao's answer.

Ma Chao stood quietly at the door, looking at Da Qiao's eyes leisurely, and felt a little weird when he looked at Da Qiao, and lowered his head. He closed the door lightly and said, "It's nothing, it's just that I haven't eaten breakfast yet, and I'm a little hungry." ”

Ma Chao smiled, and even had the honesty and honesty of a technician in his previous life. Seeing this, Da Qiao also smiled, turned around, and said with a little apology: "Indeed, I didn't expect this, so let's go and eat together." ”

After that, Da Qiao's hand was naturally placed in Ma Chao's hand, but at that moment, she obviously felt a trace of resistance in Ma Chao's hand, and then held it softly.

"What the hell is wrong with you today?" Da Qiao's gaze was a little solemn, and she let go of Ma Chao's hand. The woman's unique delicate mind made her keenly feel that today's Ma Chao is very abnormal.

"I, I ......" Ma Chao looked a little embarrassed, his face was also a little red, under the forced gaze of Da Qiao's phoenix eyes, he was quickly defeated, and said with some embarrassment: "Jun You, I said that after the battle in Jingzhou, I want to marry you as my wife." I got a letter from Chang'an last night, and my aunt has already arranged the wedding in Chang'an. But at present, Jingzhou is undecided, I think I may not be able to take you back to Chang'an to marry for the time being......"

Ma Chao's words are not false, the two had an agreement in Chang'an before, but due to the chaos in Jingzhou, Ma Chao had no time to be distracted for a while. And when he returned last night, he did receive this letter from Diao Chan to him. Therefore, this reason is used to cover up his various abnormalities, which is really not easy for Da Qiao to detect.

The highest level of lies is always three points false and seven points true. It is true, but if the heart is false, everything becomes falsehood.

Da Qiao obviously didn't expect Ma Chao to suddenly mention this matter, and his suspicion of Ma Chao suddenly dissipated under Ma Chao's clear and guilty eyes. On the contrary, after she was slightly shocked, she showed a reluctant look, but then she gently burst into her mouth with a relieved and trusting tolerance: "It's a big deal, I'm already your person, this marriage is ......" Before the words were finished, Da Qiao had already lowered his head shyly.

And Ma Chao quickly flashed a sneer on his face at this moment, but then gently took Da Qiao's hand, still guiltily and said, "I'm sorry......"

"It's okay, let's go and eat together first." Da Qiao snuggled up to Ma Chao's side softly, and a small turmoil temporarily became invisible.

It's just that the distant backs of the two of them made Diao Chan in the door feel very weird and awkward.

These two people, I have to say, are really from the same world. Diao Chan smiled, looking at the pair of detached figures, the mood seemed to be very happy, and then the corner of his mouth smiled and instructed his subordinates: "Breakfast is more abundant for King Yong, and when he returns from the 'expedition', he will definitely need to make up for it." ”

After breakfast, Ma Chao and Da Qiao walked hand in hand towards Liu Xie's bedroom.

"Jun You, why are you pulling me to visit Your Majesty today?" Ma Chao's original arrangement was to see this unlucky emperor with his own eyes. However, Da Qiao happened to be sent to the door, and it was a little abnormal for him not to ask.

"As King Yong, when you hear that Your Majesty was killed, you want to greet you. And the reason why I want to come with you is because his murder is so confusing that I don't get an answer for a day, and I feel restless in my heart, as if some conspiracy looms around you. Da Qiao'e frowned slightly, and inadvertently returned to her previous preoccupied appearance.

Ma Chao comforted her twice, but he was noncommittal about this explanation in his heart. After all, Da Qiao's explanation is too reasonable, and if he has preconceived ideas, he may be dominated by emotions and affect his judgment of events.

After a short walk, the two of them got out of the chariot and came to the county guard's mansion.

There is no palace in Xiangyang, but fortunately, Liu Biao's county guard mansion is also splendid, and Liu Xie's temporary bedroom, after some decoration, is no less than Liu Xie's bedroom in Chang'an.

Ma Chao sighed in his heart when he saw this, this Liu Xie is still the life of a canary, no matter where he goes, there is a good cage.

After a fake invitation, Ma Chao came to Liu Xie's hospital bed. At this time, Liu Xie was in a coma, and Ma Chao could only judge that Liu Xie was indeed terminally ill with the micro-end medical skills he learned from Hua Tuo, and the rest of the clues were not half useful after a glance.

Is it really Liu Xie's own success? Ma Chao secretly thought in his heart, and he had already gently pinched a silver needle in his hand: he didn't have much sympathy for this rich and handsome, and he knew that Liu Xie had a history of pretending to be sick back then, so he wanted to prick him with a needle to test it right now......

Yes, this is a little joke made by Ma Chao and Liu Xie. As for other crimes such as offending the Holy and disrespectful, it's all nonsense! - Ma Chao believes that even if Liu Xie is poked and pretends to be sick, he will not turn his face with him.

Under the cover of the wide court clothes, Ma Chao blocked Da Qiao's sight on the side. The place he aimed at was not anywhere else, it was Liu Xie's ass - I have to say that Ma Chao chose this place to play a prank, and he did have a prank mentality, and he really wanted to see how Liu Xie's reaction would be afterwards......

With Ma Chao's martial arts, the start will definitely be fast, very stable, and very accurate, but just when Ma Chao was about to make a move, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside the door. A guard said eagerly: "Imperial Princess, King Yong inside is exploring the ......" and then a woman's voice came: "Visiting? Your Majesty is dying of Ma Chao's life, and he dares to come here to visit His Majesty?! ”

"Imperial Princess?" Ma Chao regretfully put away the silver needle in his hand and looked out of the door with some doubts: Liu Xie has two imperial concubines, one is Dong Cheng's daughter who was destroyed by Cao Cao's house, and she had already been killed by Cao Cao the year before last with the dragon in her belly; And the other is ......

As soon as Ma Chao got up, he heard the wooden door being pushed open with a "bang", and Cao Jie stepped in angrily, wearing her hair in thick clothes, which was completely different from her usual style of strict makeup and grace. And the first time he saw Ma Chao, Cao Jie opened his mouth and said sharply: "Ma Chao, you can just make Your Majesty bedridden, come here today, do you have to cut off the dragon vein of the Han family with your own hands?!" ”

Ma Chao couldn't help sneering in his heart when he saw Cao Jie's actions today: although he met Cao Jie for the first time today, he had seen a lot of information about Cao Jie in the shadow, and he knew that this imperial concubine was very knowledgeable and intelligent, and after marrying into the royal family, she was even more willing to live behind the scenes and never trespass on political affairs. And at this moment, she acted like an angry shrew, which is really very different from the rumors of her early years.

killed Ma Chao didn't think that Cao Jie was suddenly angered by Liu Xie's murder and lost his calm...... This performance is a bit too much, perhaps, the clue she wants may be on her.
