【045】A New Beginning (Final Chapter of the Volume)

A few little girls were listening to it, and it was about to reach the critical moment, when Brother Shangxian suddenly stopped and looked at Ma Xiaoquan puzzled.

Hua Lin asked, "Brother, brother, why did you stop suddenly?" ”

Ma Xiaoquan smiled and gently clicked on Hua Lin's small brain: "It's nothing, a few of you, hurry up and clean up, Lord Situ will come back in a while, and he may want to report the good news, so go back to the house and dress up beautifully." ”

A few little girls didn't give up, and they had to wait for Ma Xiaoquan to finish telling the ghost story before they would give up, and in desperation, Ma Xiaoquan had to hastily end the knot, and then coaxed a few little girls back to their respective houses.

After a few little girls went down, Ma Xiaoquan instructed the housekeeper of Situ Mansion to prepare wine and food.

The housekeeper didn't understand what Ma Xiaoquan was going to do, but his master Wang Situ said that the status of Lord Shangxian was the same as him in Situ Mansion, so the housekeeper didn't dare to slack off, and retreated to prepare wine and food.

After a few little girls dressed up, they gathered in the lobby and chattered non-stop.

Ma Xiaoquan looked at the few little girls in front of him:

Xiu'er is well-behaved, Miaoyu is lovely, the flowers are delicate, and the sable cicada is beautiful, each with its own characteristics and charm. Ma Xiaoquan was overjoyed.

Hua Lin shook her little head and asked Ma Xiaoquan: "Brother, why are firecrackers being set off outside, what day is today." ”

Xiu'er interjected: "Yes, Brother Shangxian, what day is today?" ”

Ma Xiaoquan smiled, sold a pass, and said, "You will know if you all go out with this immortal!" ”

At this time, the housekeeper had already prepared the wine and food, and waited for Ma Xiaoquan's command, and the wine and food could come up.

Ma Xiaoquan shook his head and said to the old housekeeper: "Steward Liang, you should also put aside the things in your hand first, and go out with Benxian to have a look!" ”

The old housekeeper looked at Ma Xiaoquan in surprise, not knowing what medicine he was selling in the gourd, but in view of Ma Xiaoquan's identity, the old housekeeper had no choice but to agree.

"You subordinates, let's go out with this immortal and have a look!"

The immortals have spoken, and none of the people in Situ Mansion have disobeyed, and the little maids and maids have all listened to Ma Xiaoquan's instructions and went back to the room to dress up, while the guys obeyed Ma Xiaoquan's orders and changed into new clothes that were only worn during the New Year.

After everyone was ready, Ma Xiao waved his hand: "Let's go, open the door!" ”

With a "crunch", the gate of Situ Mansion opened.

After the door opened, the housekeeper and subordinates of Situ Mansion were stunned one by one.

I saw that the street in front of the house was crowded with people, all of whom were wearing new clothes that were only worn during the Chinese New Year, and children were wearing colored paper in their hands and walking through the crowd, and lanterns were hung in front of the houses of the people who could be seen nearby, and even more, couplets were pasted on the doors.

The butler opened his mouth, not understanding why these people were so happy.

Ma Xiaoquan explained to the old housekeeper: "If this immortal is not mistaken, then Dong Zhuo is already dead!" ”

"Ahh When the subordinates of Situ Mansion heard that Dong Zhuo was dead, they all felt incredible.

Miaoyu asked Ma Xiaoquan: "Brother Shangxian, are you telling the truth?" ”

Ma Xiaoquan patted his chest and promised, "You can just stop someone and ask." ”

Miaoyu didn't believe it, so she pulled Xiu'er and really grabbed someone and asked.

This person was originally impatient, but when he saw the beauty of Xiu'er and Miaoyu, he flattered and said: "The two girls don't know, that Dong Zhuo has been killed by General Lu Bulu, the Marquis of Duting, and the emperor has posted the emperor's list to inform the world."

When the two little girls heard this, they glanced at each other.

This person felt that he had a lot of merit, so he took the opportunity to get close to the two little girls and said: "If the two girls don't mind, can you go to the restaurant to sit, my family happens to open a restaurant."

The two little girls ignored this person and turned their heads to look at Ma Xiaoquan.

Ma Xiaoquan nodded.

Miaoyu ghost spirit immediately understood what Ma Xiaoquan meant, so she said coquettishly: "But we have a lot of ~~ a lot of people!" ”

This ** package said: "My restaurant is big, don't worry, even if you have a hundred or ten people, there is no problem"

Miaoyu pretended to hold this person's arm, and her arrogant little chest rubbed this person's arm intentionally or unintentionally: "Official, do you want money?" ”

Miaoyu's words were very shy, and she sounded like a little daughter-in-law who had just passed the door. As soon as this person heard this, he was in spirit: "What kind of money is not rich, my family is a famous big family in Chang'an, and my family has opened several semicolons in the restaurant alone."

Ma Xiaoquan heard this person's words, and Ma Xiaoquan said wholeheartedly: Yo, your mother is still running a chain hotel? Okay, I didn't want to kill you, but I can't help it, you agreed, so we're welcome.

"Ahem~" Ma Xiaoquan coughed twice, Miaoyu nodded lightly, and said to this person: "Official, are you sure you want to invite us to go together?" ”

The man nodded, with a wicked look on his face.

Miaoyu gave Xiu'er a look, the two of them let go of their hands in unison, and then ran and jumped to Ma Xiaoquan's side, holding Ma Xiaoquan's arm left and right: "Brother, this person agreed!" ”

Ma Xiaoquan is actually quite embarrassed, after all, this is the first time he has done the matter of eating the overlord meal, although it has not yet become a fact, but for the overlord meal that has been obvious, Ma Xiaoquan is still a little unbearable.

Ma Xiaoquan stepped forward, patted this person on the shoulder and said, "That, it was my two younger sisters who talked to you just now, brother, since you are so generous, I can't help but buy your face, right?" You see, there aren't many of us, counting the people in the whole house, that is, the number 79 person, you can look at it. ”

When this person heard the No. 79 person, he was startled, and just wanted to regret slipping away, but the steward Liang of Situ Mansion grabbed him: "Dare to joke with the people in Lord Situ's mansion, I think you are full!" ”

When this person heard this, he was startled, but he still said: "Today is the day of the death of the Dong thief, you can't bully me, besides, you can prove that you are from the Situ Mansion just by saying it?" ”

Steward Liang of Situ Mansion laughed and took off a sign from his waist, on which the word "Situ" was written.

At the end of the Han Dynasty, all the retainers and servants of the big officials would generally tie a waist card around their waists, which was a clear belonging, and second, it was also a symbol of status.

The bigger the official, the better the waist card. And Wang Yun is ranked as the third duke, and the waist cards of the retainers in the house are naturally good-looking and easy to recognize.

As soon as this person saw the waist card in Steward Liang's hand, he was deflated all of a sudden, he looked at Xiu'er and Miaoyu beside Ma Xiaoquan with a little reluctance, and said helplessly: "Hey, I knew that I shouldn't have gone out today, yes, since I let my son bump into it, then there is nothing to say, come with me!" ”

The group followed the man to a restaurant. The restaurant is not big, but it is really not a problem to entertain more than 100 people. The No. 79 people in Situ Mansion happily entered the restaurant, and within a stick of incense, everyone was filled with all kinds of exquisite dishes in front of them.

On the way here, Ma Xiaoquan chatted with this person for a while, only to know that this person's name is Zhang Qiang, because he has 3 brothers in the family, he is the oldest, and he is also known as Zhang San.

Ma Xiaoquan didn't tell Zhang San about his identity, but just made up a lie casually and fooled Zhang San.

Although Zhang San doesn't seem to be doing a good job, in fact, Ma Xiaoquan's restaurant where they are coming now is run by Zhang San.

"Sir, Zhang has a toast to you!"

Ma Xiaoquan smiled, shook his head and said, "Third boss, you are too polite, you are just a guest in Situ's mansion, how can you bother the third boss to toast in person?" ”

Zhang San said disapprovingly: "Eh? Mr. is too modest, I Zhang just love to make friends with good men in the world, seeing that Mr. is arrogant, especially the purple hair on this head, Zhang knows that Mr. must not be a mortal. ”

Xiu'er interjected: "Third boss, you're right, our brother is an immortal!" ”

Ma Xiaoquan coughed twice and signaled Xiu'er not to talk too much.

Zhang San is the owner of the restaurant, he has seen all kinds of people, Xiu'er's words, although it sounds like an unintentional statement, but he doesn't think so. Because a few days ago, Zhang San got acquainted with a son surnamed Lu, this Lu Gongzi admired him from the bottom of his heart, whether it was in words or manners, especially the thing that Lu Gongzi asked him to find

"Three bosses?"

Zhang San shook his head, came back to his senses, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I suddenly remembered an old person, hehe." ”

Ma Xiaoquan waved his hand and said, "Since the third boss is a restaurant, he must have seen a lot of people and things, right?" ”

Zhang San nodded.

Ma Xiaoquan didn't go around the bend, and said directly: "I want to ask the third boss to help me find something!" ”

"Oh?" Zhang San raised his eyebrows, "Sir, it doesn't hurt to say it, as long as my third boss can do it, just ask." ”

Ma Xiaoquan nodded appreciatively.

Zhang San seems to be righteous.

Ma Xiaoquan took out a white scroll from his arms and handed it to Zhang Sandao: "On this picture, what I am looking for!" ”

Zhang San took the white scroll, unfolded it and looked at it, and was shocked.

Zhang San asked, "Dare to ask sir, what is this thing?" ”

Ma Xiaoquan couldn't answer, so he had to say: "This thing doesn't belong to this era, what's the matter, have you seen it?" ”

Zhang San hurriedly said haha: "No, no, hehe, Mr.'s orders, as long as Zhang can do it, he will go all out."

After sending Ma Xiaoquan and his party away, Zhang San hurriedly returned to the bedroom and pulled out a white scroll from a drawer.

Zhang San unfolded the white scroll, and then unfolded the white scroll given to him by Ma Xiaoquan, and carefully compared the two.

"Strange, although these two pictures look the same, they are still slightly different, the one that Lu Gongzi gave me is a little more detailed."

Zhang San rolled up the white scroll, shook his head and said: "It's just that Mr. said that the things on this picture do not belong to this era, and Lu Gongzi also said, is there really any secret to the things on this picture?" ”

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――― when Ma Xiaoquan and his party returned to Situ Mansion, Wang Yun had already returned.

When Wang Yun came back, he saw that there was no one at home, and he was not angry, because of Dong Zhuo's death, Wang Yun's mood was really good.

"Lord Situ!"

Wang Yun stepped forward and bowed respectfully to Ma Xiaoquan and said, "Xiaomin, thank you Lord Shangxian, thank you Lord Shangxian!" ”

Ma Xiaoquan lied and said: "Xie doesn't need to, Ben Xian didn't do anything, Ben Xian just followed the heavenly machine." ”

Wang Yun said: "Lord Shangxian, Dong Zhuo is dead now, and the emperor is still young, in the middle of the court"

Ma Xiaoquan interrupted Wang Yun's words and said: "This qiē, Lord Situ will do it himself, by the way, in the next few days, this immortal may be leaving!" ”

"Huh?" Wang Yun was surprised, "Lord Shangxian, is it uncomfortable for me, Lord Shangxian of Situ Mansion, to live?" ”

Ma Xiaoquan shook his head: "No, no, this immortal has other things to do, of course, this immortal still remembers to prepare the elixir for you."

When Wang Yun heard this, he also knew that he really couldn't keep Ma Xiaoquan, so he had to say goodbye to Ma Xiaoquan with tears.

Three days later, at the gate of Situ Mansion.

"Okay, Master Situ won't send it! We don't know where we're going along the way, but don't worry, with this immortal, nothing is a problem. ”

Wang Yunlao burst into tears and choked up: "Lord Shangxian, Xiaomin has specially prepared some coiled soft coils, I hope Lord Shangxian will accept it!" ”

Ma Xiaoquan did not refuse, after all, whether it is in troubled times or peaceful times, it is not wrong to have money on him.

"Then Ben Xian, thank you, Lord Situ!"

After saying goodbye to everyone in Situ Mansion one by one, Ma Xiaoquan stepped on the horse.

"Zhao Er! Follow this immortal, do you have any regrets? ”

In front of a carriage not far in front of Ma Xiaoquan, there was a person standing respectfully, this person was a subordinate whom Ma Xiaoquan knew from Dong Zhuo - Zhao Er.

Zhao Er said respectfully: "The little one was originally just a hawker, but the Dong thief took away the small family wealth, and forced the little one to be his family, now that the Dong thief is dead, the villain has nothing to worry about, just follow the immortal and serve the immortal!" ”

Ma Xiaoquan snorted: "Then you will follow me from now on!" By the way, where are you from? ”

Zhao Er said respectfully: "Little Changshan people! ”

Ma Xiaoquan was shocked and happy: "Changshan people, well, good, interesting!" Let's go! ”

After Ma Xiaoquan finished speaking, he gently pinched the horse's belly, and the horse galloped away.

Zhao Er got into the carriage, raised the horsewhip, and whipped it lightly, and the carriage also galloped away in the direction of Ma Xiaoquan.

In the carriage, there were four women like flowers and jade: Xiu'er, Miaoyu, Hua Lin, and Diao Chan.

Diao Chan asked, "Where is Brother Shangxian taking us?" ”

Hua Lin shook her little head: "Brother said that he would take us to Cao Cao!" ”

Xiu'er blinked her big watery eyes: "Why Cao Cao?" ”

Hua Lin pouted: "I don't know, Sister Miaoyu, you brought food to my brother yesterday, what did my brother say?" ”

Miaoyu smashed it and smashed it: "I don't know, I just listened to what Brother Shangxian said when I was delivering food to Brother Shangxian"

"Oh~"

Outside the carriage, Ma Xiaoquan strangled the horse slightly, and Zhao Er drove the carriage to follow.

"Lord Shangxian, where are we going in this trip?"

Ma Xiaoquan smiled: "Go to Yanzhou!" ”

Zhao Er was shocked: "Lord Shangxian, the remnants of the Yellow Turban Army in Yanzhou are rampant right now, are you sure you want to go?" ”

Ma Xiaoquan laughed and said: "I went to Yanzhou, because there is still an old friend of mine!" Hahaha"
