15, Ma Ri held the festival to comfort Kanto

The fourth year of the first peace came quietly in the wind and snow of Jiangdu. At this time, Sun Ce stood on the green hill and stood with his sword in his hand. From time to time, snowflakes fell on Sun Ce, who was dressed in plain clothes, and quickly merged with him. Sun Ce's dark eyes sparkled in the moonlight, and he had a cold and arrogant temperament.

In the dark night, Sun Ce looked into the distance, but could not see anything. Deng Dang, Jia Hua, Song Qian, and Sun He stood quietly behind Sun Ce, and no one bothered him.

Sun Ce kept recalling the records in the Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms, Ma Riyan and Zhao Qi held the festival to comfort the Kanto region in August last year, that is, in the third year of Chuping (192 AD), and now it has reached January of the fourth year of Chuping (193 AD), and it is time for Ma Taifu to Shouchun.

Sun Ce didn't know at this time that Ma Riyan, under the escort of hundreds of Xiliang troops, was indeed not far from Shouchun.

Outside a county town not far from Shouchun, in the grove next to the official road, an army of several hundred people was secretly stationed. If someone passes by the official road and doesn't look carefully, they can't see it clearly. In the camp, there is a big banner with a horse character, which is the team of Taifu Ma Riyan to comfort the Kanto region.

Ma Riyan is about forty years old, and he is the son of the master of scripture Ma Rong. Ma Riyan inherited Ma Rong's talent and learning, and has been an official for many years, and is quite well received among Shilin.

At this time, Ma Riyan was kneeling on the mat in the military tent, with an eight-foot-long bamboo pole inserted beside him, and the top was decorated with yellow feathers. This eight-foot-long bamboo pole is the so-called scepter, and holding the knots means representing the emperor. Ma Ri held the festival to comfort the Kanto, which is the meaning of the emperor to comfort the Kanto. On behalf of the emperor, Ma Riyan comforted the Kanto region, and naturally had the right to show the official positions and titles of the princes. And this right is also the reason why Sun Ce thinks about Ma Riyan day and night.

The long-awaited Taifu Ma Riyan sat quietly on a fine mat and listened attentively to the answers of the two soldiers.

"Master Taifu, the little one has walked all the way in this county, and it seems that there are two names everywhere!" A soldier said cautiously.

"Oh, those two names, tell me about them!" Ma Riyan smiled and said, looking very interested.

"Master Hui Taifu, in the entire county, the names of Yuan Shu and Sun Ce are heard the most!"

Ma Riyan frowned, and he didn't know if it was because Yuan Shu had a bad sense, or if he seemed to have a bad feeling for Sun Ce.

After a moment of silence, Ma Riyan then asked, "Well, let's talk about these two people carefully!" ”

The soldier nodded and said: "There are many rumors in the county, since Yuan Shu came to Shouchun, he has been violently conscripted and forcibly conscripted, and now he has tens of thousands of soldiers, hundreds of generals, and dozens of strategists. Some people also say that Yuan Shu's mansion in Shouchun is extremely luxurious, and it seems that there is a violation of the system, and many people are rumoring that Yuan Shu has a heart of disobedience! ”

Ma Riyan snorted lightly and said: "This Yuan Highway is from a big family, and the Yuan family of the fourth and third princes is nothing more than that, but the hateful Son of Heaven wants to make this person the general of Zuo, the Marquis of Yang Zhai!" ”

The soldier's body trembled slightly, and he didn't dare to answer.

Ma Riyan sighed and asked a little helplessly: "Continue to talk about Sun Ce!" ”

"Back to Lord Taifu's words, this Sun Ce is the eldest son of the late General Broken and Marquis Sun Jian of Wucheng. Sun Ce, the word Bofu, rumors in the countryside that Sun Ce was as brave and fierce as his father, and once made an oath to avenge the killing of his father. Since Sun Poyu's death, Sun Ce has been filial piety to this day. It is a loyal, brave, benevolent and filial person! The soldier sighed as he spoke, as if he had been completely moved by Sun Ce's deeds.

Ma Riyan couldn't help nodding when he listened, and seemed to be very optimistic about Sun Ce.

"What else is there to know about Sun Ce?" Ma Riyan seemed to be unfinished asking.

The soldier was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said: "There are a lot of good names about Sun Ce here, and the specific deeds have not heard of any other deeds except for making an oath to avenge his father and keeping filial piety for his father so far. ”

Ma Riyan seemed to nod with some pity, but saw that the soldier interjected again: "The villain heard that Sun Ce is now in Jiangdu, and he took thousands of the old troops left by Sun Poyu to guard his father's filial piety, if the adults want to go and see, the distance is not too far!" ”

Ma Riyan nodded, as if he immediately wanted to rush to Jiangdu.

"Pass my order and send someone to Shouchun to report the news, and say that this official is holding a festival to comfort Kanto, and Shouchun will be coming soon!" Ma Riyan waved his hand and said.

In February of the fourth year of Chuping (193 AD), Ma Riyan, who was holding a festival to comfort the Kanto, finally arrived outside Shouchun City.

Thirty miles outside Shouchun City, Yuan Shu led his men to greet Taifu Ma Riyan.

Tens of thousands of soldiers will be densely arranged by Yuan Shu on both sides of the official road, the sound of drums and music, the flag fluttering, Yuan Shu in an official uniform stands at the front of everyone, looking at the end of the official road. Behind him stood generals such as Ji Ling, Zhang Xun, Qiao Rui, and Liu Xun, as well as strategists such as Yang Hong and Yan Xiang.

It took about half an hour for Ma Riyan's team to slowly march.

The first one was the Taifu Ma Riyan who was riding on a horse, and I saw that Ma Riyan was dressed in an official uniform, holding a rein in one hand and a knott in the other, and there was a majestic atmosphere when walking.

Behind Ma Riyan are also hundreds of elite knights who are fully armed, and they also look quite majestic.

I saw Yuan Shu's right hand wave slightly, and the sound of drum music sounded again, and Yuan Shu led everyone behind him to kneel down together.

The corners of Ma Riyan's mouth curled slightly, and he slowly turned over and dismounted, but said: "You don't have to be polite on the highway, please get up quickly!" ”

The corners of Yuan Shu's mouth twitched, and he secretly hated in his heart, where did he offend this old guy?

Although the two of them didn't like each other, they still had to do a good job of surface work, only to see Yuan Shu affectionately pull Ma Riyan's sleeve and say: "Taifu holds the festival to soothe Kanto, and has worked hard all the way, and Shu has prepared wine and food in the city to catch the wind and wash the dust for Lord Taifu!" ”

"Haha, the highway is really polite, this official is the duty of the minister to patrol the sky on behalf of the sky, and it is the duty of the minister to comfort the Kanto region with festivals, not to mention the hard work, but the highway is a prince, and he was named the left general by the Son of Heaven, Yang Zhai Hou, the highway must not live up to the emperor's grace!" Ma Riyan had something to say.

The corners of Yuan Shu's mouth twitched again, thinking to himself how could this old guy be so pedantic, this Han family was declining, couldn't he see it? Han loses its deer, and he should be a virtuous person to live in it. I, Yuan Shu, was born noble, the fourth world and the third duke, and I think I am this virtuous person.

However, after all, Yuan Shu was born in the scholar clan, and he has also experienced ups and downs over the years, so he naturally will not show the thoughts in his heart on his face.

I saw Yuan Shu laugh and say, "Taifu, please!" Then he took Ma Riyan and walked towards the city.

In Shouchun City, Yuan Shu's mansion covers a vast area, and Ma Riyan is still far away, so it can be confirmed that this mansion has long been violated. frowned slightly, but Ma Riyan didn't say anything.
