The figure rushed out of the door and grabbed Ma Chao, who had come down the stone steps, "Han Sui came to me, he is a guest, not to mention that he has a prestige in Liangzhou, how can my father come with you and follow me in——"

The guards and servants around the courtyard could obviously hear the sound of porcelain breaking, and when the two quarreled, they lowered their heads and did not look, and the father and son here did not care about being looked at by the subordinates, and returned to the house, Ma Teng walked back to the first place and sat down, glanced at his son, and waved his hand to let the maid pour the wine: "This matter just now, my father should not have heard it, and the people below will not spread it randomly, Meng Qi, no matter what you think, but don't show it easily, we are not barefoot people at the beginning." ”

"My father became timid." Ma Chao's palms were clenched into fists at his side, and he turned his head to look at his father, and it was half loud before he restrained himself and released his fist: "When I was very young, I admired my father's bloody fight, and every time I came back, I told Chao how brave and invincible he was on the battlefield, and now ...... Father, what the hell are you thinking? Trembling slightly, he turned his body and almost gritted his teeth and came out: "....... took the opportunity to sneak attack and take credit from others, what kind of hero is it!! ”

"Meng ..... Meng Qi..... you are still too young."

Ma Chao chuckled lightly and walked to the middle: "What is too young, it is that you were coaxed by Han Sui to find the north, and the dignified man in the middle of the country did this kind of thing of destroying the stove and destroying the beam....... father disappointed his son too much." ”

"Could it be that Gongsun is upright? He started from scratch, if he could get to where he is today?! The last time you went to the Northlands, I didn't like it. ”

Bang bang..... palm knocked a few times on the long case, Ma Teng looked at this son sternly, in fact, he hoped that Ma Chao could be like Gongsun Zhi, but at the moment, it was not a happy thing, "...... this person is cunning and fierce, so as not to be used by the other party, I don't know it yet!" ”

While he was talking, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside, Ma Teng stopped talking and looked up, Ma Chao also glanced back slightly, then snorted coldly in his nose, turned around and walked to the side seat and sat down, smashing his fist on the desk, and it was Han Sui who should have rested a long time ago, he walked to the middle, and arched his hand with a smile: "I heard that there was a quarrel in the house, so I came over to be a peacemaker." ”

"My family affairs, what do you have to do with ......" Ma Chao put down the bronze jue and turned his face to the side.

Ma Teng glared at his son and stood up: "Brother Wen Yue said politely, but it was my father and son who quarreled over trivial matters and disturbed my brother's rest." ”

"Trivialities are trivial, how can father and son have an overnight feud." Han Sui smiled, consciously walked to the other side and knelt down, and when a maid stepped forward to add wine, he said, "How did you think about the incident you talked to Shou Cheng in the afternoon?" ”

As he spoke, his eyes glanced at Ma Chao opposite, intentionally or unintentionally. After a while, Ma Teng's voice came from above, "Brother Wen Yue came suddenly, things are even more hasty, it is difficult to make a decision with a single speech, you might as well let Teng think about it for a few more days." ”

He frowned, and looked at Han Sui with serious eyes, in fact, this matter is also simple, but it is also complicated, although climbing Cao Cao is a benefit, but who is the real benefit, it is self-evident, he came from a humble background, even if his ancestor is a horse aid, it is not much help at the moment, but with such an identity, doing this kind of thing is also a certain consideration.

Han Sui waited for him for a moment, and suddenly laughed: "It seems that Shou Cheng still has some concerns, but think about it for the Ma family in the future, if you can let Shou Cheng show his skills in this pass?" If you are attached to the prime minister, you can be regarded as attached to the Han family, and you will not be insulted by the ancestors, not to mention that you and I are not really cattle and horses, as long as you rely on the land of Liangzhou and Sanfu to give the prime minister a strong reputation, it is only a matter of time before the official is crowned, otherwise, when the prime minister calms down all parties and turns the spearhead at you and me, even if there are 200,000 soldiers and horses, it is just a second Yuan Benchu. ”

The words are relaxed, but in fact, they have hidden needles in the cotton, showing an aggressive posture.

"Brother Wen Yue is serious, Teng is Hanchen, and he has never left half a step away from the right guard, what crime does the prime minister have to blame for destroying my Ma family? It was the elder brother who attacked Sanfu and coerced Chang'an back then........" Ma Teng waved his hand and laughed along, there was also a counterattack in this passage, and he was about to continue, when someone outside hurriedly came here.

Stopped at the door and bowed down: "Qiqi Lord's house, there is news from the city gate just now....." The servant raised his head and whispered, "Gongsun Dudu brought five hundred people into the city, and he is coming to the mansion, and he will send someone to send a prayer post first." ”

"Really here?" Ma Chao got up, a smile appeared on his face, and then he retracted again, looked at his father over there, and was about to speak, Han Sui also got up and stepped into the seat, and arched his hand towards Ma Teng, who frowned: "Shoucheng, this is good news, I originally wanted to join the prime minister to sneak attack and merge the state, but at this time, he came over in person, and presented the credit to us with both hands." ”

"Hmm...... That's just as well. Ma Teng rubbed his beard and nodded.

Over there, Ma Chao hurriedly took two steps forward and arched his hand: "Father, the governor of Gongsun only brought five hundred people into the city to visit his father, which is also a sincere move, take it down like this, I don't know how to say about my Ma family outside, wouldn't it be a loss of the prestige of my ancestors!" ”

"Humph!"

The sleeves of his robe flicked violently, Han Sui took a step out with his hands in his hand, and said, "In the world of great contention, how can you act like a child? The great husband should act with profit. Shou Cheng doesn't need to think too much about it, there is a knife and axe hand hidden outside the hall, and when he comes in, he will be slashed by a crowd, and the north will inevitably be chaotic, except for the reward from the prime minister's side, I can't say that you and I can also get a piece of the pie. ”

"Father!"

Ma Chao shouted anxiously, Ma Teng waved his hand to interrupt the words he still wanted to say, and was silent for a moment: "What Brother Wen Yue said is not unreasonable, but since the person has come, I must always listen to what he is talking about when he comes to my right to help the wind, if he is not happy, it is not too late to kill him." ”

"Haha, that's right, Shoucheng, see how you take down this white wolf!"

The light of the fire swayed on the walls in the shadow of the speaker, and at the same time, the streets of this important military town were sparsely populated by pedestrians after nightfall, and the late arrivals were hurried, and there was a huge gap between the city and the upper valley county, and the houses on both sides were dilapidated, and the streets were paved with gravel mixed with dry mud, and the sound of horses' hooves coming from the direction of the city gate.

The soldiers patrolling the city passed by the horse team that entered the city, under the light of the torches held high, their eyes were on guard against the other party's past, and from time to time there were also inquiries and soldiers rushed to guard several important street intersections, including hostility to prevent the other party from suddenly making trouble, after all, five hundred cavalry entered the city, and the chaos caused was also huge.

Approaching the mansion, Gongsun Zhi suddenly pulled the reins, slowed down, he looked at the night sky on the side of the mansion, on the map of the phantom, overlooking the distribution of the entire courtyard, dense red dots are converging, forming a U-shape, surrounding the entire main hall.

"There's really a ..... action" A sneer crossed his lips.

Dian Wei turned around and saw that the leader had fallen out of a distance, and returned to get closer to the past: "What's wrong with the lord?" ”

"Nothing, just something interesting." As he spoke, he asked people to take a plain silk, the pen and ink carried with the army, quickly sketched a simple figure on horseback, and handed it to the giant man, who just glanced at it and knew what it meant, after all, he had followed the lord for many years, and the tacit understanding was naturally there, and he could understand it with one action and one look.

Soon after, the procession stopped at the entrance of the mansion and said, "You are waiting here!" At the sound of the voice, Gongsun stopped his horse and took Dian Wei, Li Ke and fifty guards up the stone steps, and the doorman who had been waiting for him bowed down and hurriedly greeted him, saluted, and led everyone into the front yard.

Lanterns sway under the eaves.

"The governor is here, please, the main family and Han Taishou of Jincheng are also inside." The door stopped at the stone steps.

Gongsun stopped humming, and when he stepped on the stone steps, he patted Li Ke's arm lightly, and the latter secretly glanced at the left and right guards after the leader of his family walked up to the eaves, and everyone quietly held the handle of the knife, and glanced at the corridors on both sides of the main hall.......

At this time, supper had been placed in the hall, and between the seats, Han Sui was expressionless with the dishes, chatting with the first person about some things piecemeal.

"Recently, the Qiang people have been much more honest, all relying on the prestige of my nephew's 'Shenweitian General'......"

Ma Teng took a sip of wine and laughed: "The Qiang people are not in rebellion for a day or two, but it is indeed thanks to my son's great power that he is afraid to kill them." ”

"...... but it doesn't work that way." Han Sui shook his head and put down his long chopsticks: "If the Qiang people don't mess around, our role in Liangzhou will be small, and it will be a lot less to reach out to Chang'an to ask for it......"

"I'd love to hear what someone is saying about a thief!"

As he spoke, Gongsun Zhi's voice suddenly sounded outside the door, Han Sui remained calm, still sitting there expressionlessly, reaching out and taking the bronze jue to his mouth and taking a sip, but he didn't put it down. The open door, the figure who spoke, with a huge bodyguard, strode straight towards the middle, Ma Teng got up and arched his hand towards the other party: "Gongsun Dudu is a guest from afar, please sit down and talk." ”

On the side of the first place, Ma Chao, who was standing, looked at Gongsun Zhi in the middle, blinked his eyes from time to time, and squeezed his eyebrows to give a hint of warning, Gongsun Zhi glanced at it and arched his hand upwards: "General Ma's hospitality seems to be very different from ordinary people." His eyes swept around, and some figures could be faintly seen outside the window lattice, and then he turned his head to look at the figure who was still eating in the seats, and strode towards each other.

"What do you mean by this?" Ma Tengmei's heart skipped a beat.

At the same time as these words were spoken, Han Sui was vigilant in his heart, raised his head slightly, the white wolf had already walked into the light of the lamp in front of him, and what he was facing was the cold gaze of the man, his heart seemed to be pinched, and the whole person suddenly stood on end, realizing that it was not good, and hurriedly threw the bronze jue in his hand to the ground.

On the other side, Gongsun Zhi's shoulder moved.

Han Sui's raised arm had not yet fallen, and the force of restraint had already come from his wrist, at this moment, the first person on the horse got up suddenly, suddenly spoke, and shouted loudly: "Gongsun Zhi put down Han Taishou-"

"What are you going to do!"

Han Sui's voice then shouted out, the moment he stretched out his other hand and wanted to draw the sword, the opposite Gongsun stopped pulling him forward, and he was knocked down with a bang, the dishes and drinks spilled on the ground, and the scabbard with seven gems on his waist collided lightly, and the blade pulled out a touch of coldness, out of the sheath-

In the next second, a knife slashed at the neck of the stumbling Han Sui, the dull sound of the blade cutting through the flesh and bones, and the lampshade of the flickering firelight, a blood line splashed on it.

"General Ma's hospitality is to throw a cup as a trumpet and bury a knife and axe?"

Gongsun Zhi whispered, kicked the head of the person on the ground out, took the wine in the corpse's hand, drank it all in one gulp, and threw it to the ground, "Then be direct, let them all get out-"

In the conference hall, the atmosphere was extremely quiet, Ma Teng looked at the ground with his mouth wide open, his head was blind, his lips trembled slightly, and in a moment, he kicked the long case down.

"Shaft, you dare!!"
