Summary of the previous chapter: No man from the scholar clan dared to eat the refined pill, but fortunately, a lady took the initiative to ask Ying to try the pill An hour later, this lady was still talking and laughing On the other hand, Ma Xiaoquan came to the dark room again and faced Cai Mao

++++++++++++++++ Ma Xiaoquan smiled: "Okay, then I want you to surrender to Cao Cao, do you have any opinions?" ”

Cai Mao was stunned: "This"

"Huh?" Ma Xiaoquan frowned, and looked at Cai Mao with a fierce look in his eyes.

"I agree, I must agree, I surrender, I surrender Cao Cao!"

Ma Xiaoquan smiled and blew out the red flame on his right index finger.

"That's right, the one who knows the times is Junjie, and General Cai is also Junjie, uh-huh."

Cai Mao exhaled a long breath and said in her heart: I promise you now, I will regret going up in a while, and see what you can do to me?

Ma Xiaoquan seemed to see Cai Mao's thoughts, he laughed, his spirit was concentrated again, and green flames lit on his hands.

"Lord Immortal, you"

Ma Xiaoquan smiled and said: "Don't worry, you won't become a eunuch, but you are a bit untrustworthy, this immortal can't believe you so lightly, uh-huh, leave you some souvenirs"

"No, no, no."

When Ma Xiaoquan came out of the dark room, there was a man behind him, this man's face was flushed, and he couldn't tell anything wrong from his appearance, but on closer inspection, the beard curvature of the man's chin and upper lip seemed to be a little wrong.

The man is none other than Cai Mao.

It is said that after Ma Xiaoquan drove the fire of the green spirit, he first burned the beard on Cai Mao's face, originally Ma Xiaoquan meant that Cai Mao's hair was also burned out, Cai Mao's reaction was also fast, and he begged his grandfather to tell his grandmother, Ma Xiaoquan gave him a hair, of course, Cai Mao, as a man after the year of establishment, must have a beard, if there is no beard, with Cai Mao's identity, he will definitely be ridiculed.

In desperation, Cai Mao had no choice but to secretly shave off the hair under her crotch and transfer it to her face

Ma Xiaoquan put his hands behind his back, turned his head to look at Cai Mao, and couldn't help but laugh wildly when he saw the twisted beard on his face.

"Oh, this immortal-sama, I beg you, don't laugh"

Ma Xiaoquan pinched his face, forcibly held back his smile, and said, "Okay, okay, don't laugh, but General Cai, don't forget what Jì promised Benxian just now!" ”

How dare Cai Mao have other ideas now, as soon as Ma Xiaoquan's voice fell, he immediately nodded like a chicken pecking rice.

"Lord Shangxian rest assured, absolutely rest assured, I will go back to persuade Liu Cong's kid to surrender to Cao Gong, if Liu Cong does not agree, it is a rebellion, and I will surrender to Cao Gong!"

Seeing that Cai Mao said so resolutely, Ma Xiaoquan smiled, patted Cai Mao's shoulder and said: "You don't have to worry so much, Cao Cao is still easier to get along with, especially General Cai, if you train the navy properly, you must be able to become the commander of the navy in Cao Gong's struggle to dominate the south of the Yangtze River." ”

When Cai Mao heard this, her eyes lit up and she said excitedly: "Lord Shangxian, you said that what you said is true?" ”

Ma Xiaoquan nodded: "Do you dare to make a bet with this immortal?" ”

Cai Mao rolled her eyes, touched the "beard" that had just been pasted on, and said, "I'll make the bet." ”

Ma Xiaoquan laughed: "Okay, you Cai Mao, at this time, you dare to talk to Ben Xian about the conditions, okay, you can set the bet, let's say, what kind of bet do you want." ”

Cai Mao raised her lips, her eyes fluttered for a while, and she said faintly: "If I can't be the commander of Cao Gong's army, Lord Shangxian will have to marry Miss Murong to me." ”

"And what if you become the commander of the navy?"

Cai Mao said: "I will do whatever the Immortal Lord says I will do." ”

"Good!" Ma Xiaoquan stretched out his right hand and struck Cai Mao three times in a row

When the two returned to the main hall, the "Most Beautiful Lady" was in full swing, and the enthusiasm of the scholars was very high, of course, this also stemmed from the activity planning skills of the horsemen.

After listening to some of Ma Xiaoquan's suggestions, Ma Bing set up five test contents for the "Most Beautiful Lady" on a whim:

First, the participating ladies are required to learn to play a piece of music within the specified time. The content of this competition should be said to be the easiest, because the ladies of these competitions, not to mention calligraphy and painting, at least know a little bit about piano and chess, the first competition went very smoothly, and none of the participating ladies were eliminated, which also gave a lot of light to the faces of the men present.

Second, the participating wives are required to dance a dance within the allotted time. The content of this competition is relatively easy, of course, there are still a few ladies who did not jump out because they were nervous and were eliminated.

Third, the participating ladies are required to compose a poem within the allotted time. Compared with the first two items, the content of this competition has suddenly increased a lot of difficulty. You must know that the men of the scholar clan sometimes marry wives and concubines not because of how good the woman is, in their eyes, as long as a woman has a big buttocks, a good figure, and a beautiful appearance, even if she is illiterate and can't embroider, she can be accepted as a concubine. After this competition, most of the participating ladies were eliminated

Ma Bing raised his head and saw Ma Xiaoquan and Cai Mao standing together, he stepped forward to greet the two, and said in Ma Xiaoquan's ear: "Lord Shangxian, it's getting late, today's competition is over for the time being, right?" ”

Ma Xiaoquan nodded and settled, "Where is the elixir for you?" ”

The horseman snorted.

"Okay, then that's the end of today's banquet, tomorrow's competition for the last two."

The horse soldier said respectfully: "Yes! ”

At night, the scholars were all settled in the horse soldier's house, which was also a big horse soldier's house, and there were some remaining rooms to settle everyone down, of course, the newly renovated wing room in heaven and earth, the horse soldiers did not arrange to go out.

In the wing room, Ma Xiaoquan and the horse soldiers sat opposite each other.

Ma Xiaoquan frowned and said: "Tongxin, there is a secret passage in your heaven and earth, and the secret passage leads to a dark room, right?" ”

The horse soldier smiled: "It seems that the Immortal Lord has already found out." ”

"Well, if it wasn't for the early discovery of this immortal, my sister Ziyan would probably have insulted Cai Mao's brute, horse soldier, did you go too far at this point?"

Ma Xiaoquan's voice was not loud, but with a strong aura of majesty, Ma Bing knew that if he couldn't give a reasonable explanation next, I was afraid that the master in front of him would turn against him.

Ma Bing's eyes rolled, and he smiled and said, "Lord Shangxian has misunderstood, how can you believe the words of Cai Mao's family at will?" I did tell Cai Mao where the dark room was, but I didn't invite Cai Mao to go here, this qiē was also Cai Mao's idea."

What Ma Bing said also makes sense, although Cai Mao said that Ma Bing did it, but the public said that the public was reasonable, and the mother-in-law said that the mother-in-law was reasonable, Ma Xiaoquan would rather both of them doubt it, and it was impossible to just listen to the words of one family.

Ma Xiaoquan exhaled and said slowly: "You mean, it's completely Cai Mao's idea?" ”

The horsemen were cunning and cunning, and immediately waved their hands and said: "Oh no, no, no, this can't be completely attributed to General Cai alone, there are also faults below, and there are faults below." ”

Ma Xiaoquan nodded, he was very satisfied with the attitude of the horse soldier, if the horse soldier insisted that it was Cai Mao's fault, he would definitely not let the horse soldier go, even if he was Ma Yun Ma Yu's father, he would not let it go lightly. Of course, now the attitude of the horse soldier is very good, and he himself has taken part of the responsibility.

Ma Bing is very smart, and in the past few days with Ma Xiaoquan, he has been constantly talking from the mouths of his two sons, one is to grasp Ma Xiaoquan's temperament, and the other is also for himself.

From his son's mouth, he learned that the purpose of Ma Xiaoquan's trip was mainly to persuade Liu Cong to surrender to Cao Cao, and the relationship between Ma Xiaoquan and Cao Cao was not ordinary.

Ma Xiaoquan stood up and stepped forward to pat Ma Bing's shoulder: "Brother Tongxin, you are also a smart person, I like to deal with smart people very much, besides, your two sons are also my capable subordinates, in general, we are allies on the same front, so I hope that no matter what happens in the future, you don't hide it from me too much, especially about my family, do you understand when I say this?" ”

The horse soldier stood up, bowed respectfully, and said, "Don't worry, Lord Shangxian, I must remember the teachings of Lord Shangxian below." ”

Ma Xiaoquan smiled slightly and took Cai Mao's hand, although Ma Xiaoquan was very reluctant to do this in his heart, but the hand of this era is a sign of intimacy and trust.

"Cai Mao's side, I've basically done it, tomorrow's most beautiful lady champion Tongxin brother, who do you think is more suitable?"

Ma Bing smiled and kicked the ball back to Ma Xiaoquan: "Who does Lord Shangxian think is the most suitable?" ”

Ma Xiaoquan laughed, pointed at the horse soldiers, and said, "Okay, you are a horse with one heart, you are really smart, haha"

The horse soldier waved his hand humbly and said, "Where, where, otherwise, I'll write my name with Lord Shangxian to see if we think of it together?" ”

Ma Xiaoquan was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart: Yo, I thought that only Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu had a good heart, it turned out that the horse soldiers were also good, interesting.

Ma Xiaoquan nodded, stretched out his right index finger, dipped it in a little tea, and then wrote a person's name on the desk. When Ma Xiaoquan finished writing and looked up, Ma Bing also wrote a name, and the two spread out and looked at each other, laughing at each other.

Looking at the names of the people on both sides of the desk, Ma Bing shook his head and said: "Lord Shangxian is really Lord Shangxian, worthy of being my Han Immortal Marquis, and he is really worthy of the word 'Immortal'!" ”

Ma Xiaoquan said: "Where is it, Brother Tongxin is also very good, it is also an honor for this immortal to think of it with Brother Tongxin, haha"
