Chapter 267: (Snooping)

Yuncheng, called 'Yanyi' in the Spring and Autumn Period, called 'Yan' in the Warring States Period, Qin set up Hedong County, Anyi County, renamed 'Si Yancheng' during the period of Emperor Wen of the Western Han Dynasty, renamed 'Yanjian City' during the period of Emperor Xuan, the title of 'Yuncheng' did not appear until the Northern Song Dynasty, Shangguan Yin Feng directly renamed Anyi County, Hedong County marked on the map of the Western Han Dynasty as 'Yuncheng', Liu Xuanlihan, still called 'Si Yancheng', and vigorously expanded the city.

After Shangguan Yin Feng lost control of Yuncheng, Liu Xuan, in order to protect this northern salt-producing land, ordered all the people in Siyan City to repair the city together and raise the city wall in case of emergency.

At Chen Qing's house in Jiyang, Ma Xin was talking to his little sister in the backyard, but the so-called Sima Zhao's heart is known to passers-by, and he is waiting for the little sister's husband, Chen Xu, the second son of the Chen family.

"My brother came this time, but did he bring his mother?" has been married for many years, and what this little sister of the Ma family misses most is her old mother who is far away in Beiping.

"Brother Fool came here this time, but he came for my uncle." Ma Xin whispered to his little sister: "Don't let that old guy Chen Qing know about this matter. ”

Ma Xin said and carefully looked at the little sister who had not seen her for several years, although she was only twenty-four, but at first glance she looked like thirty-seven or eight, and after careful interrogation, she knew that the little sister of the Ma family had also suffered a lot in the Chen family over the years.

"Back then, my father strongly opposed this marriage, but now it has been fulfilled, and my sister is worried that when Jiyang City is broken, I will personally avenge you for my brother."

Ma Xin wanted to go to Chen Qing to settle accounts when he spoke, but was stopped by the little sister of the Ma family, because of family reasons, the Ma family has lived in the town outside Beiping for generations, and can only be a small family, because there are a few acres of thin fields, life is also passable, but also because Chen Xu went to Beiping to do business, passing by the town where the Ma family is located, he fell in love with Ma Xin's sister, so he proposed to propose, after the Ma family's little sister married to Jiyang, because the family is not rich, Chen Qing looked down on her, even Ma Xin came this time, Chen Qing also thought that Ma Xin was here to ask for money from his little daughter-in-law, after all, the little sister of the Ma family is now living a rich life, and it is not excessive to help in private, but Chen Qing still warned Chen Xu Mo not to give too much money to the Ma family easily, so as not to be blackmailed.

"Brother, although my sister has done a lot, but my husband is very good to my sister, my sister is surnamed Chen this time, so naturally she is still speaking for the Chen family..."The little sister of the Ma family also knows how to marry a chicken and a dog and a dog, and also expressed her words to defend Chen Xu, although Chen Qing was not mentioned, but after all, she still has to call her 'father', so naturally she will not let Ma Xin mess around.

"Hey..."

Until late at night, Chen Xu returned to the house with the support of his subordinates with a little drunkenness, and scolded after entering the house, Ma entered the house to comfort a few words, it turned out that it was because of the fall of Jinan, and now the officials in Jiyang City began to collect grain, and Chen Xu's business in addition to the wine store is the grain business, the grain in his store was all taken away by the officials in Jiyang City, and was warned by the captain of the patrol city, if it is nonsense, it has been taken to prison for the crime of collaborating with the enemy.

The grief-stricken Chen Xu had to hand over most of the stored grain, and then went home after he got drunk in his wine shop, if it weren't for Ma's comfort, maybe he would have scolded for a while.

"Brother is here?" Chen Xu, who drank the sobering tea, looked at Ma Wu with a sigh of relief, he was not like his bitter father, and he was also happy when he heard that Ma Xin was coming: "Go and invite my brother to come and wash the dust for my husband and him." ”

Before Ma Shi went, Ma Xin was already standing outside the door, and he was also unhappy, for no other reason, after dinner, because he was looked down upon by Chen Qing, he was arranged to live with his subordinates, and he did not treat Ma Xin as an uncle and uncle.

"The elder brother is here, the younger brother is far away, hurry up and sit in the house..."Chen Xu greeted Ma Xin very warmly, which also made Ma Xin's anger disappear a lot.

The outhouse is Chen Xu's lobby, and the inner room is his and Ma's bedroom, and a banquet has been set up in the lobby of the outhouse.

After a glass of wine, Ma Xin looked at Chen Xu unceremoniously and asked, "What does my uncle care about my sister?" Have you ever mistreated him? ”

"Brother, you're drunk?" Ma Shi looked at Ma Xin unhappily.

When Chen Xu heard this, he immediately smiled and said: "Where, no, never, since I married Rong'er, I haven't even accepted a concubine, I should be in love with Rong'er." ”

"But the truth?" Ma Xin turned his head to look at Ma Rongdao.

Seeing Ma Rong nodding, Ma Xincai looked at Chen Xuyan and said, "I don't dare to forgive you..."

If Chen Qing heard these words, it is estimated that he would have turned his face a long time ago, after all, your Ma family is just a farmer, and it has never been a rich family, so what qualifications do you have to compare with the Chen family.

Chen Xu even asked Ma Rong to bring a bag of things, and when he opened it, he saw that it was full of gold and silver: "Brother, this is the younger brother's intention, and I hope that the elder brother will not be surprised, and I hope that the elder brother will help the younger brother buy some supplements for his mother-in-law after taking it away, and talk about his feelings." ”

"I don't need..."

Ma Xin pushed this bag of gold and silver to Ma Rong, Chen Xu thought it was less, so he asked Ma Rong to take some more, Ma Rong also blamed Ma Xinlai, thinking that Ma Xin was not satisfied, and said a few words about Ma Xin, if it wasn't for Chen Xu to play a round from it, it is estimated that Ma Xin would have thrown the wine glass in front of him to the ground.

"Aunt Chen, a certain thought is in the face of you who still loves my little sister, and it can be regarded as sparing your life..."Ma Xin looked at Chen Xu horizontally, which made Chen Xu and Ma Rong both surprised.

Just when the two were still in the circle, Ma Xin even said something that made them tremble: "Little sister, uncle, foolish brother will not hide it from you, since the king of Changsha invaded Beiping, he has entered the command of the king of Changsha for his brother, and now he is the chief flag officer of the Fusi of Jinyi Weibei Town, and now he has the edict of the prince to sneak into Jiyang City, see if he can use some officials and generals who can be used by the prince anyway..."

Speaking of this, Chen Xu immediately stood up, opened the door and waved away the subordinates waiting outside the door, and then closed the door after making sure that there was no one, and said in a low voice: "Could it be that the army of the King of Changsha is about to kill?" ”

"That's right..."Ma Xin said arrogantly: "The army of the king will arrive soon, and when Jiyang City is broken, a certain person will be a hero, and he will definitely be able to guard a place in Shandong one day, so I ask you like this, if my uncle you are not good to my little sister, on the day the city is broken, your Chen family will also have to be buried with the rebels..."

"Brother... Brother..."Chen Xu was secretly surprised when he heard this, fortunately he and Ma Rong fell in love with each other after they got married, even if his father Chen Qing criticized him many times, but he also protected Ma Rong, otherwise his Chen family would have a hard time in the future, after all, now Ma Xin is already a person of the Cheng Dynasty, and the Cheng Dynasty is now attacking fiercely in Shandong, Jinan has fallen, and Jiyang City cannot become a climate at all.

"You don't need to worry, but now I have something big to say to you..."
