[427] Chang'an line
Summary of the previous chapter: Ma Xiaoquan and Cao Cao returned to Yecheng together, for the disappearance of his son, Ma Xiaoquan asked Cao Cao to help him hide it temporarily, but staying at home for a long time will definitely be exposed, so Cao Cao Jian yì Ma Xiaoquan should go to Xudu to go around
In February of the seventeenth year of Emperor Jian'an of the +++++++++++++++++++ Han Dynasty (2112 years of the park), Ma Xiaoquan went to Xudu alone to meet the emperor.
Guessing that the little emperor might be defensive of himself, Ma Xiaoquan specially offered the white tiger skin he got from Cao Cao to Emperor Han Xian.
Although Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty lived a life of brocade clothes and jade food in Xudu, he saw a lot of rare treasures, but for the white tiger skin, Liu Xie also saw it for the first time.
"Uncle, are you sure you want to give me this white tiger skin?"
Ma Xiaoquan smiled and arched his hand: "Of course, the emperor can accept it!" ”
Emperor Han Xian asked, "Uncle, where did this white tiger skin come from?" ”
Ma Xiaoquan thought about it for a while and decided to lie to Emperor Han Xian: "Cao Cao's compensation for me!" ”
"It's for you!"
Ma Xiaoquan nodded: "That's right, Cao Cao lost Lao Tzu's son this dog day, now life and death are uncertain, Lao Tzu lost a son, and I originally wanted to let him die a son, but then this Cao Cao lost a lot of Lao Tzu's treasures, hey, forget it, if you die, let's die, it's a big deal that Lao Tzu has another one." ”
Ma Xiaoquan said that he was full of righteous indignation, but Liu Xie saw it in his eyes, but his heart was extremely happy.
Liu Xiexin said: It seems that the death of a son of the Immortal Marquis is not enough to fall out with Cao Cao, well, I have to continue to work harder.
After thinking about it, Liu Xie said: "Uncle, in that case, why don't you just kill his son?" ”
Ma Xiaoquan shook his head: "It's also my fault to think about this, if it weren't for my insistence on leaving my son in Cao Ying, I'm afraid my son wouldn't have lost it, and now life and death are uncertain."
"How's that going to work?" Liu Xie said a little excitedly.
"Huh?" Ma Xiaoquan looked a little strange, and said in his heart, Lao Tzu's son is gone, you kid is in a hurry?
Liu Xie is not stupid, when he saw Ma Xiaoquan looking at him, he immediately changed his expression and said: "Uncle, that's your son, you and I are brothers, my brother is gone, I am in a hurry to death, why is my uncle still so calm?" ”
Ma Xiaoquan nodded and asked, "Then what should I do?" ”
Liu Xie said that the opportunity had come, and hurriedly put forward some of his own opinions very vaguely, of course, in order not to make Ma Xiaoquan too suspicious, Liu Xie has been emphasizing that he and Ma Zheng are brothers.
Seeing Ma Xiaoquan's expression gradually become a little solemn, Liu Xie's heart burst into ecstasy, but on the surface, he was very righteous and awe-inspiring, as if it was not Ma Xiaoquan's son who was lost, but his son.
Liu Xie thinks that Ma Xiaoquan is trapped, but how old is Liu Xie? Compared with experience and age, Liu Xie can't compare to Ma Xiaoquan at all, not to mention that Ma Xiaoquan has been dealing with Cao Cao, the "political family" for 20 years, and Liu Xie's sowing discord, Ma Xiaoquan has already seen through it.
However, Ma Xiaoquan did not break this layer of window paper, and at this point, he also guessed who was responsible for the loss of his son.
However, although Ma Xiaoquan can question Liu Xie face-to-face, or even coerce Liu Xie, if Liu Xie does not admit it and envy himself afterwards, it will be more than worth the loss.
After all, Ma Xiaoquan is not alone now, he has a family, and even has some family properties, with these fetters, no matter how powerful Ma Xiaoquan is, he is just one person.
In the position of the head of the family, it is natural to think more about the development of the family.
Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, although Ma Xiaoquan concluded that Liu Xie was involved in that matter, he had to wait for evidence to have it.
"Hey!" Listening to Liu Xie's constant provocation, Ma Xiaoquan deliberately sighed and waved his hand to interrupt, "Xie'er doesn't know, in fact, many situations are not as simple as we imagined, for example, what has happened in recent years, you kid have a lot of unclear, right?" ”
Liu Xie sighed and asked, "Uncle can you tell Xie'er one or two, so that Xie'er can also understand." ”
Ma Xiaoquan nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll slowly describe the events of the last few years to you." ”
Ma Xiaoquan's stay is a month.
In March, Ma Chao, who was far away in Liangzhou, began to assemble troops, and after just a few days, he gathered more than 10,000 troops, and the momentum was quite huge. In addition, Ma Chao is brave and brave, and he also has some strategies, and he attacked the city for a while, and many counties were forced to raise their flags and surrender because of their prestige.
In mid-March, Liu Xie, the Han Xian Emperor of Xudu, couldn't sit still and asked the immortal Hou Ma Xiaoquan to go to Chang'an immediately to "condole" the Cao army guard Xiahou Yuan.
Ma Xiaoquan understood what Liu Xie meant, Xiahou Yuan was Cao Cao's person, and Liu Xie deliberately let himself go to comfort Cao Cao's people, making it clear that he wanted to continue to have a bad relationship with Cao Cao.
It's just that Liu Xie thinks Cao Cao is too simple, if Cao Cao is so easy to win, then Cao Cao is not Cao Cao, not to mention, before this, Ma Xiaoquan and Cao Cao have already made several analyses on what may happen next, and it just so happens that Liu Xie's move has also been analyzed by Ma Cao and the others.
However, as an intermediary Ma Xiaoquan, he didn't want to stand on the same line with Cao Cao very firmly, he had to sway slightly, so as to gain more right to speak, this trick was taught to him by Cao Cao, the "political family".
Therefore, for more than a month, Ma Xiaoquan has worked hard to "repair" his relationship with Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, not to mention anything else, Ma Xiaoquan has sent several batches of jewelry brocade alone.
Liu Xie is not a wooden man, although before this he resented Ma Xiaoquan and Cao Cao stood in the same line, but after more than a month of getting along, Liu Xie found that Ma Xiaoquan did not have any great ambitions, during this period, Ma Xiaoquan had repeatedly mentioned that he wanted to settle in Yuyang, which in Liu Xie's ears, it can be said that everyone is happy news.
You must know that since Ma Xiaoquan said in front of himself that he wanted to stand in the same line with Cao Cao, Liu Xie was very frightened, others have not seen the ability of this fairy uncle, he Liu Xie has seen it, when the uncle saved himself with the power of one person, this ability is not something that ordinary people can do.
"Uncle said that, what you said last time was all angry words?"
Ma Xiaoquan smiled and lied: "Sort of, in fact, I'm not a big ambition at all, you let me go to 'condole' Xiahou Yuan, that's okay, it's just that I'm fine, I'll go on your behalf." ”
The intention was "distorted", but it was in Liu Xie's arms, Liu Xie's heart was excited, but on the surface, he said very plainly: "Then Xie'er will thank you uncle." ”
Ma Xiaoquan sighed and said: "It's nothing, but I have to advise you for my uncle, don't move too much, do you understand?" ”
Liu Xie's heart tightened, and he was sweating profusely in an instant: "I understand"
Ma Xiaoquan nodded: "Okay, Uncle is gone." ”
Liu Xie nodded, stood up and wanted to send Ma Xiaoquan.
Ma Xiaoquan immediately stopped: "No need to send it, you can rest well." ”
Looking at Ma Xiaoquan's back, Liu Xie suddenly collapsed to the ground with a sigh
Ma Chao is indeed powerful, and the name of Xiliang Jin Ma Chao is by no means Lang Ze's name, seeing that it hit the periphery of Chang'an, the guard Xiahou Yuan finally couldn't sit still, and immediately sent a chicken feather letter to Cao Cao in Yecheng.
Cao Cao was furious when he read the letter, and immediately ordered Ma Teng, the father of Ma Chao, to be arrested.
In May, Cao Cao killed Ma Teng's family in Yecheng along with himself, and reported his death to Ma Chao, who was far away in the vicinity of Chang'an.
After learning that his father was killed by Cao Cao, Ma Chao was extremely angry and immediately led a large army to force Chang'an.
However, Chang'an has many natural dangers, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and Ma Chao has been fighting for several days without results.
At this time, the immortal Hou Ma Xiaoquan had been in Chang'an for more than a month.
Ma Xiaoquan has a good relationship with Xiahou Yuan, because Xiahou Yuan is very arrogant, and his cultural level is much higher than that of other generals.
In the past, Ma Xiaoquan watched "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and thought that Xiahou Yuan was a brave and unscrupulous person, but when he saw Xiahou Yuan's real person, Ma Xiaoquan knew that "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was fictional.
Xiahou Yuan is not only strong in martial arts, but also very skilled in the use of the art of war, compared with his brother Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Yuan is a little more wise and a little less reckless.
For example, Ma Chao's strong pressure on Chang'an in recent days, Xiahou Yuan has not sent troops to greet him, but only relied on Chang'an's natural danger to resist strongly, and used the word "drag" in the art of war very skillfully
Chang'an, in Xiahou Yuan's residence.
"Come, Lord Shangxian, military affairs are in the body, you can't drink, let's replace wine with tea, do it!"
Ma Xiaoquan nodded, picked up the teacup in his hand, lightly touched a cup with Xiahou Yuan, and then drank all the tea in the cup.
"Ah~~" After drinking the tea, Xiahou Yuan wiped the corners of his mouth and said, "Lord Shangxian, I have always wanted to ask you, have you been here for more than a month, just to see the excitement?" ”
Ma Xiaoquan smiled: "Look at the excitement? Hey, Miaocai, Miaocai, why did I come here more than a month ago, isn't it clear what is written in the holy decree? ”
Xiahou Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Lord Shangxian, you won't be forced to come by the emperor, right?" ”
Ma Xiaoquan said helplessly: "Hey, don't mention it, by the way, Miaocai, Benxian has been here for more than a month, and there is no news of Benxian's son?" ”
Xiahou Yuan pursed his lips and shook his head: "No! ”
Ma Xiaoquan sighed and stopped talking.
