Chapter 966: Ma Teng's Determination (Medium)
Therefore, if he wants to forcibly make Ma Zongheng change his ambitions, the only result will only be like that day, the father and son quarreled red-faced, and even swords against each other! Of course, Ma Teng believes that Ma Zongheng, who has always been filial piety, will never make a move on him, what he is afraid of is that he will not be angry for a while, and he will really hurt Ma Zongheng, and in the end, the two of them can't even do father and son!!
So, Ma Teng, who has been extremely stubborn in the past few days, in order to save this precious family affection, he himself changed his mind and made concessions. He can let Ma Zongheng establish his foundation, but the only requirement is that he can't carry Han Jun and have Han Jun in his heart!!
As Ma Teng's voice fell, Ma Zongheng's face couldn't help but sink, and he looked at his father's extremely sharp eyes.
In the end, Ma Zongheng also chose to give in, bowed his head heavily, and arched his hand: "I understand, I am willing to obey my father's orders!" โ
With this promise, Ma Zongheng had no false intentions, but promised Ma Teng very carefully!
"Okay, I've ordered Gongming and Mancheng to be released from prison, and you can see them when you go back to the post house. Tonight I will set up a banquet in the house to plead with them. After all, I put these two loyal men in prison because of my momentary anger, and later I didn't want to release them because of my face. When I think about it now, I really regret it. Ma Teng said with a little shame. When Ma Zongheng heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, as soon as he came to Chang'an, he quarreled with Ma Teng, and because his identity was not publicized, he couldn't go to visit him in prison. At this time, Ma Zongheng heard that Ma Teng was willing to release Xu Huang and Li Dian from prison, and he was very happy in his heart, so he hurriedly got up and thanked: "Dad is magnanimous, here I will thank my father for Gongming and Man Cheng first." โ
"Hey, it doesn't have to be like this, when Yongzhou was taken at the beginning, Gongming and Mancheng were meritorious people who made great contributions. Besides, they are your subordinates, and I have indiscriminately put them in prison. After you go back, you have to appease them well for your father, don't let them have a gap with you because of this incident, that's my sin!! Ma Teng said with a solemn expression, this time he can speak with a calm mind, but he is also a wise person.
The horse sank into the dark, and did not forget the purpose of this time, and was about to knock on the information from the side. At this moment, Ma Teng seemed to see Ma Zongheng's intentions, and suddenly said: "At this time, Gongming and Man Cheng have probably gone to the post house, you go back to appease the two of you first, what is the important matter, you and I will discuss it again at the banquet tonight." โ
"Yes!"
"I'm a little tired too, let's go!" Before Ma Zongheng finished speaking, Ma Teng stood up and shouted undoubtedly. Ma Zongheng's face couldn't help but change, and he could only agree.
After a while, not long after Ma Teng left the hall, Ma Yunlu, Ma Xiu, and Ma Tie hurried out. But seeing Ma Yunlu's anxious face, he was so anxious that he even kicked his feet and shouted: "Big brother, what are you doing, why don't you seize the opportunity to ask your father!" โ
When Ma Zongheng heard this, he frowned, but he shook his head and did not answer. Matthew, who was beside him, said in a deep voice: "Dad seems to be deliberately avoiding the eldest brother, could it be that he found that I was waiting, and the matter was serious, and he didn't want me to know?" โ
"Hmmm! Brother Hugh said that the ground is reasonable, or tonight Dad will find a chance to be alone with the eldest brother, and then talk to the eldest brother in detail. Ma Tie's big eyes lit up, and he said. When Ma Yunlu heard this, he seemed to be aware of it, patted his small forehead, and said: "This is also true, the eldest brother suddenly changed his attitude, and my father may not have expected it before, but now I will go back first, and I may have to prepare how to tell the big brother about the overall plan." Dad is so cautious, it seems that this matter is really extraordinary! โ
Speaking of this, Ma Yunlu couldn't help but calm down, revealing a thoughtful look, his smart eyes kept slipping, not knowing what he was thinking.
When he was young, Ma Zongheng was surrounded by Ma Yunlu, Ma Xiu, and Ma Tie, and then arrived at the back door of the General's Mansion, and after saying goodbye to everyone, he immediately got into the carriage. Speaking of which, the servants, maidservants, and soldiers up and down in the general's mansion are all carefully selected henchmen with certain qualifications. Ma Zongheng came in and out these two times with a black gauze and straw hat to cover, the previous time Ma Zongheng first let Zhang Jaw find a steward named Wang Wu in the general's mansion, this person has followed Ma Teng's side for many years, loyal, and later because of injury, he became the steward of the Ma family. Ma Zongheng knew that his father had always missed the old, even if he lived in the General's Mansion, most of them would still use the old people, and sure enough, when Wang Wu heard that Ma Zongheng had come to the General's Mansion, he immediately arranged to transfer the left and right, and then went to see Ma Zongheng and introduced it in person. When leaving, Wang Wu was waiting outside again and took it out in person. And this time, when Ma Zongheng came, it was Ma Yunlu and others who greeted Wang Wu together, and when they left, Wang Wu also saw them off together at the back door.
Seeing Ma Zongheng leave quickly in the carriage, a middle-aged man in a blue robe turned a little glittering in his eyes because of a rather hideous scar on his face.
"Uncle Wang, has my father prepared a banquet tonight?" At this time, Ma Yunlu suddenly asked the middle-aged man kindly. The middle-aged man was Wang Wu, and when he heard this, he hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Miss Huiyu, the lord has already commanded, and the old slave is about to go back to arrange the banquet." โ
"Hehe, has Dad prepared a place for me and the other three?"
"Hehe, this banquet is still not suitable for the young lady and the two sons for the time being, and the lord has also specially instructed the old slave to take good care of the young lady and the two sons, otherwise the old slave is the only one who asks. At that time, please don't embarrass the old slave. Wang Wuying smiled, and the smile was extremely kind. Speaking of which, Wang Wu grew up watching Ma Yunlu, Ma Xiu, and Ma Tie grow up, and he takes good care of them on weekdays, and spends even more time with them than Ma Teng. Therefore, the three of them have great respect for Wang Wu.
When Ma Yunlu heard this, he immediately grabbed Wang Wu's arm affectionately and coquettishly: "No~!" Uncle Wang, when you arrive, you will only close your eyes, or I will send you two jars of good wine, and then let these two guys drink with you? โ
"Hey! Little sister, I didn't agree! Ma Tie saw that Ma Yunlu had arranged the tasks of the two brothers without asking, and he couldn't help but feel anxious, and hurriedly shouted. Ma Xiu, who was on the side, was also about to speak, Ma Yunlu suddenly turned around and glared at Ma Tie fiercely: "Don't offend your aunt and grandmother, otherwise I will be unhappy, and you don't want to have a good life at home in the future!" โ
As soon as Ma Yunlu said this, Ma Tie immediately withered, and by the way, Ma Xiu next to him saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly closed his mouth.
At this time, Wang Wu didn't know when he withdrew his hand, and left like a ghost, when Ma Yunlu came back to his senses, how could he still see a figure?
Soon, on the small pavilion in the Houhuayuan pond in the General's Mansion, Ma Teng was standing in the small pavilion, not knowing what he was thinking, and he had no intention of enjoying the beautiful scenery around him, and his face was a little calm.
At this time, a sound of footsteps came, and Ma Teng seemed to have guessed who it was, and sighed: "Xi'er left?" โ
"Yes, the eldest prince has left."
"Eh, the family is unfortunate, if Xi'er can have the same ambition as me, and our father and son work together, why can't the Han family be revived!? But now, I only hope that he can remember the promise of the right talent, and in the future, as long as he lives up to the Han Jun, he will be regarded as the protection of his ancestors. Ma Teng let out a long breath, he never thought that one day, he would have to prepare his own children.
"The eldest prince has extraordinary ability, Wen Taowu strategy is possessed, there was a rumor in Yanzhou that year, saying that the eldest prince is determined to create a new era, emulate the righteousness of the Book of Changes, so that everyone is like a dragon, and people can be self-reliant and self-reliant regardless of humility. Then uphold justice in the government, so that the people of the world can be willing to work hard, each with their strength, in order to strive for glory and wealth, and with the concerted efforts of thousands of people to create a peaceful and prosperous world! Wang Wu said eloquently. Ma Teng listened, but shook his head and sighed: "The people, but the foolish people!" But if these Li people can understand this truth, how could the people be bewitched by those demons during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, so that the thieves rose up like a plague of locusts, and even within a few years, they will be all over the world? I was even more ignorant back then, and listened to the voices of those foolish people, and even rose up against the imperial court, and ended up in a wolf bรจi unbearable end, and since then I have been even more saddled with the name of 'anti-thief', and the reputation of my ancestors has been humiliated. This loss, my Ma Shoucheng has eaten enough! Speaking of which, I do not resent the people, after all, the people are dull and worry about their livelihood all day long, but like me, these heroes who come from a family and have skills, should come out of the world, make decisions for these people, govern them, and then give them the ability to make a living. And Xi'er's statement is simply nonsense, so that the foolish people can be self-reliant? Wouldn't the world be in chaos? But if everyone wants to be an official, it is said that each depends on his strength, but if the foolish people refuse to fight each other according to the rules and regulations, then there is chaos everywhere? โ
Ma Teng spoke sharply, his mouth was like a river, and he commented on Ma Zongheng's thoughts and ambitions, which can be described as useless. Having said that, he was more unwilling in his heart, after all, Ma Zongheng was his best child, and he sincerely hoped that Ma Zongheng could join hands with him to restore Fubo's ambition.
"Hehe, young people want to have an idea and a goal, so they will dare to fight. The old slave thought that the ambition of the eldest prince was in line with the people's hearts. The so-called, the people, is the state of the community, the eldest prince is willing to take the people as the cornerstone, so that it is self-reliant, just like the foundation of the sky, sooner or later, its foundation will be able to rise to the sky, looking down on the world! As soon as Wang Wu's words came out, Ma Teng couldn't help but look stunned, and looked back at Wang Wu suddenly, with a more remarkable light circulating in his eyes.
"Wang Wu!!" Suddenly, Ma Teng shouted. Wang Wu immediately agreed: "The old slave is here!" โ
"You have been serving me for many years, and I treat you like a brother to your humerus. So you don't have to hide your mind in front of me, you answer me honestly, do you really think that Xi'er thinks like this, can really reform and create a new one, and create a new era that has no one before and no one after him!? โ
