From Yecheng to Xiliang, the road is very long.

Cao Shuo and the others hurried up and walked for a whole month.

Entering the territory of Xiliang, Cao Shuo said to Chen Zhi and others: "Before leaving, I told my father that this time I came to Xiliang, and I could return in a month or a few months. Now it seems that we will not be able to go back without three or five months. ”

"Cao Gong is really." Deng Zhan said: "The Cao family is not nobody, why did they choose the son to come to Xiliang." ”

"My father asked me, and the meaning couldn't be clearer, he just wanted me to come." Cao Shuo said: "After the Wuhuan incident, the relationship between me and my father has eased. Now that I am also the son of the Cao family, it will not be long before His Majesty will issue an edict to canonize me as a general. The benefits are obtained one by one, I can't always say nothing, coming to Xiliang is what I must experience. ”

"Childe sees the long term." Deng Zhan said suspiciously: "If it were someone else, who would be willing to give up Sanhan and Liaodong and come to Xiliang, a place where the eight poles can't be beaten?" ”

Glancing at Deng Zhan, Cao Shuo pouted and smiled: "It's not completely beneficial to come to Xiliang." Since I'm here, I'm sure I won't go back empty-handed. ”

Chen Zhi and the others all looked at him in surprise.

Cao Shuo said to them: "It's too early to say this, it depends on who comes to meet us first." ”

As he was talking, Zhu Ao pointed forward and said to Cao Shuo: "Childe, there is a team of people in front." ”

Looking ahead, Cao Shuo saw a group of people galloping towards this direction on horseback.

The other party was getting closer and closer, and Cao Shuo finally saw that it was none other than Ma Teng and Ma Chao who were rushing over.

Ma Teng and the others were about to come to the front, and Deng Zhan rode up to meet them.

"General Ma, please stop." Deng Zhan shouted.

Stopping the war horse, Ma Teng arched his hand to Deng Zhan and said, "I heard that the son of the Cao family is here, so we specially came to greet him." ”

Cao Shuo walked up with Chen Zhi and Zhu Ao.

He bowed to Ma Teng with a smile on his face: "I heard that General Ma and General Han have had some misunderstandings recently, and my father is very anxious. I was specially ordered to come to mediate, and General Rauma personally came to greet me, and I was really frightened. ”

Ma Teng returned the salute and said: "Childe came to Xiliang thousands of miles away, I don't know what Han Sui thinks, anyway, our Ma family is grateful to Childe." ”

"Since General Ma is here, General Han must not come to greet him again, right?" Cao Shuo asked.

Speaking of Han Sui, Ma Teng lowered his face coldly: "Who knows him, he can come if he wants, and if he doesn't want to come, he can't do anything to him." ”

"What General Ma said is that I asked more." Cao Shuo replied with a smile.

While the two were talking, Zhu Ao pointed to the other side: "Childe, there is another team of people." ”

Looking in the direction of Zhu Ao's finger, Cao Shuo saw a team of people coming quickly.

The group didn't get too close and stopped far away.

Although separated by a distance, Cao Shuo still recognized at a glance that it was Han Sui who brought people here.

"General Han is here." Cao Shuo asked Ma Teng with a smile: "Do you want to meet with General Ma?" ”

"It's better not to see it." Ma Teng said with a cold face: "I'm afraid that after I see him, I will fight with him." ”

"I'm here, will the two generals still fight?" Cao Shuo said: "No matter what happens between the two generals, in front of me, the mediator, there will never be a fight." ”

"That's what Childe said." Ma Teng said with a gloomy face: "Then let him come." ”

Glancing at Deng Zhan, Cao Shuo ordered, "Please ask General Han to come over and speak." ”

Deng Zhan left in response.

Han Sui originally came to greet Cao Shuo, but when he saw Ma Teng arriving first from a distance, he stopped.

After a while, he saw a fast horse approaching.

had fought against the Xiongnu with Cao Shuo, and Han Sui knew that it was Deng Zhan who came over.

Without waiting for Deng Zhan to speak, he first arched his hand and beckoned, "General Deng." ”

"Childe asked me to ask General Han, since you have arrived, why don't you go over and see you?" Deng Zhan asked in return.

"Ma Teng is there, I don't want to see him." Han Sui said: "If the son really wants to see each other, please come to my side to talk about it." ”

"General Han is embarrassing the son." Deng Zhan said with a smile: "General Ma came to greet him first, but General Han asked Gongzi to come over, didn't he let Gongzi abandon General Ma and choose to stand on General Han's side when he arrived in Xiliang?" ”

Han Sui was stunned for a moment, and asked Deng Zhan, "Dare to ask what Gongzi is doing here?" ”

"What else can be done?" Deng Zhan said: "General Han and General Ma have recently attacked each other, and Cao Gong was very anxious when he heard about it. He ordered Gongzi to come to mediate the festival between the two generals. ”

"I can't mediate." Han Sui said: "Ma Teng occupied my territory and killed my soldiers, how can I rest with him?" ”

"Whether it is mediated or not, General Han will not go over, but he will be discredited." Deng Zhan said: "As a general's hero, he should not be willing to fall into the laughing stock of the world." ”

"I just don't want to see Ma Teng, why did I end up with a laughing stock?" Han Sui asked.

"Temperament, the key is temperament." Deng Zhan said: "General Han came to greet Gongzi, but he refused to go to meet him because General Ma was there. Spreading it out, doesn't it make people think that the general is afraid of General Ma? ”

"Can I be afraid of him?" Han Sui's eyes widened: "General Deng is too underestimated." ”

He beckoned behind him, "Let's go see Zirong Gongzi." ”

Han Sui walked over with the team.

Ma Teng didn't look at him, and tilted his face to the side.

Approaching Cao Shuo, Han Sui bowed his hand and saluted: "Son, I haven't seen you for a long time since I said goodbye in the past." ”

"General Han!" Cao Shuo replied with a smile on his face: "When the two generals left Xudu, I still often think of the days when we fought against the Xiongnu together. ”

"Childe has a good plan, and the Huns are really happy in that fight." Han Sui asked, "Dare to ask Gongzi this time when he comes to Xiliang, what is the cost?" ”

"My father heard that the two generals had some misunderstandings recently, so he specially asked me to come to mediate." Cao Shuo said: "Regardless of whether the two generals buy my face or not, this mediation still has to go through the motions." ”

"Childe is just here for a walk?" Ma Teng asked in amazement.

"I've seen two generals." Cao Shuo said: "The two generals have no understanding of each other at all, and I am afraid that my mediation will not be of any use." I have only one request. ”

"Childe, please speak." Ma Teng and Han Sui said in unison.

"When I was here, I also asked the two generals to give some face and not to fight each other." Cao Shuo said: "If I'm not here, I just don't know how the two generals fight." ”

Ma Teng and Han Sui were stunned.

The two of them glanced at each other, and both turned their faces aside in disgust.

Cao Shuo asked with a smile: "I just came to Xiliang, I don't know how the two generals plan to catch the wind?" ”
