Chapter 119, Ma Chao, Zhang Ji, Zhang Xiu

"It seems that Chang Sheng has done some investigation, otherwise he wouldn't have said it so smoothly." Dong Zhuo stroked his beard and smiled.

"Lord Dong, because I believe that without investigation, there is no right to speak, and I ask Lord Dong to forgive me." Lu Zhan looked at Dong Zhuodao, who was "smiling but not smiling".

"There is no voice without investigation, well, well said." Dong Zhuo patted the case and said, "When the army is marching and fighting, this sentence is a golden and jade good word. Suddenly, he frowned and said, "Chang Sheng, the first three people you said entered the palace with you to be the imperial guard, I have no opinion." Is it just、Is it just this Ma Chao? Can I change someone? Ma Chao is a trump card to contain Ma Teng, and he doesn't want this trump card not to be in his hands.

"Master Dong, I also thought about choosing Ma Chao. Because he is the same age as the emperor and has a good martial arts, he can not only protect the emperor, but also play with the emperor. With him by the emperor's side, the emperor will not be bored. Lu Zhan said his reasons, and did not forget to pat the horse and say, "I watch Lord Dong take steps and take a tiger's step, and the power is in his hands at any time, I don't care if Ma Chao is in the army or the palace, right?" Because I believe that before long, everything will be in the hands of Master Dong. ”

"Wow~~"

After saying this, many people in the account looked at Lu Zhan again: This person's skill in shooting horses is first-class. Guo Yan, Li Dao, and Li Ruyan looked at him with interest; Xu Rong, Duan Xuan, Yang Ding, and Wang Fang knew that he had been entrusted with a heavy task by the emperor, and now they were so "stammering" with Lord Dong, they all gave him a thumbs up in their hearts: In front of the emperor and Lord Dong, you are the first person.

Hua Xiong sneered in his heart: I thought this guy was so backbone, it turned out that he was also good at flattery.

"Haha...... Those who know me will always win. Dong Zhuo listened to it and laughed, "Okay, it's up to you to let Ma Chao enter the palace." I have a lot of power, no matter if I am in the army or in the palace, everything is in my hands, haha......"

Seeing that he agreed, Lu Zhan put his mind at ease, got up and walked in front of him, and handed over the holy decree to him-originally he was going to kneel, but he treated Dong Zhuo like this, and in the eyes of outsiders, he couldn't help but be surprised: it can be seen how flattering he is to Dong Zhuo.

"Well, good." Dong Zhuo was very happy: he was very satisfied with Lu Zhan's move, stretched out his hand to take the holy decree, did not open it to see, and nodded in praise. Originally, he wanted to try his best to win over Lu Zhan, but now seeing that the other party took the initiative to show goodwill, he was in a happy mood and happy.

He took a sip of wine from his wine glass, and after Lu Zhan returned to his seat and sat down, he ordered the guards to find Ma Chao and Zhang Xiu, and then glanced around at everyone in front of him, and said proudly: "Everyone, if Dong wants to achieve great things in the future, he must rely on your help, and I hope you will work together and unite around Dong." In the future, if Dong Mou is in power, he will definitely reward you heroes. Come, I give you a glass. After that, raise your glass and invite.

"Your Excellency is gracious." "We are faithful followers of your lordship. "I wish you all the power in your hands as soon as possible and guide the country. ”……

Lu Zhan raised his wine glass with everyone to toast Dong Zhuo, and after he finished drinking it with his neck up, he suddenly saw a tall young man sitting opposite him looking at him with strange eyes, and a question mark was erected in his heart: This person has a dignified appearance, a straight nose and a square mouth, thick limbs, and full of strength, why do you look at me like this?

It turned out that this young man was Zhang Ji, and when he heard Lu Zhan say that he wanted to choose his uncle and nephew to enter the palace as imperial guards, he had no opinion: under the whole world, it is not the king's land; On the shore of the land, it is not the king's minister, and it is a great honor to be able to do things for the emperor.

It's just that the impression left by Lu Zhan in his heart is extremely different: if he doesn't speak, he is a talent, serious and serious, absolutely convincing; As soon as he spoke, he was a little sloppy, flattering, and speculative.

He thinks that he is upright and does not know these superficial skills, if he gets along with this kind of person in the future: it is really difficult to get along, do you also have to say something sycophant and duplicitous?

Of course, this is just one side of Lu Zhan that he saw, and he didn't see the other side, no wonder he had such thoughts.

Lu Zhan didn't know what he was thinking, smiled at him friendly, sat upright, and waited for Ma Chao and Zhang Xiu to come. Then I thought that Dong Zhuo didn't seem to mention Zhang Ji, could it be that this person was in this account?

Thinking about it like this, Lu Zhan was sure: Could it be the person opposite? Then he looked at the tall blue-robed young man sitting across from him. It's just that he lowered his head and was pondering something, and he didn't notice that Lu Zhan was looking at him meaningfully.

Suddenly, a strong smell of barbecue wafted over, and everyone in the tent turned their heads to look: some soldiers entered the tent with large plates of barbecued meat, placed a plate of yellow roast mutton in front of each small table, and withdrew.

"Come on, come on, everyone eat meat and drink wine." Dong Zhuo said as he grabbed the leg of mutton meat on the plate in front of him, put it to his broad lips, and swallowed it.

"Fuck, only five layers of meat?" Lu Zhan picked up the brown leg of lamb on his table and took a bite, feeling not only a little raw, but also a smell of mutton. Remembering that it was half-cooked mutton, he couldn't eat it. But I didn't want to look different, so I took a gentle bite in my mouth, chewed slowly, and then swallowed with wine.

At this moment, the two young generals rushed into the tent. One of the blue-robed young men stood in the tent and greeted Dong Zhuo with his hands in fists, then turned his head to look at Zhang Ji, and asked with his eyes: "Uncle, why did Lord Dong call me here?"

The other white-robed young man didn't look at Dong Zhuo who was sitting at the head of the tent, and looked around at the people in the tent with a pair of lively eyes, without any scruples. When he saw Lu Zhan, he was instantly stunned, and then couldn't help but be ecstatic, and shouted, "Big brother? Are you here? As he spoke, he walked to Lu Zhan's table, and sat down next to Lu Zhan as if no one was around, with an excited and happy face.

These two are Ma Chao and Zhang Xiu. Ma Chao is seven feet long, with a tiger's back and a wolf's waist, and he is quite extraordinary, his eyebrows are like paint brushes, his eyes are like stars, and his face is like Fu Fan. Zhang Xiu is about seven feet tall, with a Chinese face, sparse eyebrows, straight nose and red lips, broad shoulders and thick back, and is similar in age to Ma Chao.

Dong Zhuo saw that the two of them were coming, one was respectful, the other was presumptuous, he snorted coldly in his heart, but he was not angry, knowing that Ma Chao had his Lao Tzu's backing, and he was used to indulging in front of him, and after giving them a seat, he looked at Lu Zhan with some curiosity and asked: "Chang Sheng, when did you call him brother and brother?" ”

"Master Dong, I hit it off with my eldest brother at first sight, and I called him my eldest brother, is there anything wrong?" Ma Chao stared at the leg of mutton meat in Lu Zhan's hand and looked at Dong Zhuodao.

"Hehe, being able to recognize Chang Sheng as a big brother proves that you are blessed." Dong Zhuo no longer paid attention to him, and drank and ate meat by himself.

"Brother Yi, you can eat, the eldest brother is not used to eating this mutton." Lu Zhan handed the leg of mutton to Ma Chao.

"Thank you, big brother." Ma Chao took it with both hands and bit it heavily.

Over there, Zhang Xiu sat next to Zhang Ji, and when he saw Ma Chao eating like a starving ghost, he couldn't help frowning, and said in his heart: How could I be defeated in the hands of such a person, it's really embarrassing.
