Chapter 193: Talking in the Cave Room
Thinking of this, Ma Teng was about to agree, but Ma Chao took the first step and said: "How can the matter of the Son of Heaven be discussed on such an occasion, and it is not too late to discuss this matter later!" ”
Lu Zhi said: "The difference between the general's words! Today is a time of festivities, if you can be happy and happy, wouldn't it be the icing on the cake? Besides, the Empress Dowager Yongle and all the important ministers of the court and the central government were all present, just to be a witness! As long as the initial intention is reached, the old man will come to the door to officially carry out the gift! ”
Yang Biao echoed: "What Lu Situ said is very true! The Son of Heaven and Miss Ma are of the same age, and they are the right match, which is a match made in heaven! ”
Ma Chao was about to speak again, but was stopped by Ma Teng waving his hand, and laughed: "The man is married, and the woman is married, it stands to reason that the little girl is not in her prime, and she can't talk about marriage, but if she is married to the Son of Heaven, it is another matter, and the old man will not allow it."
"Father!" Ma Chao hurriedly interrupted Ma Teng's words, and while looking at him urgently, he said: "How can the posture of the sister Pu Liu be the mother of the world?" He would have been the minister of the first emperor and the lonely, and he had already calculated the matter after the confrontation! Besides, the matter of the establishment is a major matter of the state, and it is really not appropriate to discuss it at the wedding banquet of the general! A glass to everyone! With that, he took a glass of sake and drank it down.
Although Ma Teng was dissatisfied with Ma Chao's interruption of his words, he also knew that Ma Chao had something to discuss in private, so he raised his wine glass and said humbly: "Meng Qi's words are reasonable, how can the major affairs of the country be discussed after drinking?" Today, I only drink happy wine, don't talk about state affairs! ”
Cai Yong and Ma Yueyan have been with Ma Chao for a long time, and their relationship is extraordinary, and they also echoed when they heard the words: "That's right, everyone, please!" "I drank it all in one go.
Seeing this, Empress Dowager Dong and Lu Zhi were inconvenient to mention it again, but they believed that Ma Teng would definitely agree to this matter, because Ma Teng had no reason or need to refuse.
Ma Chao has been in this world for 16 years, but it is still difficult to change the way of thinking of modern people in his bones. The advantage is that you can better control him and make him a puppet willingly. Cao Ying in history is even more desperate, after killing Dong Guiren and Fu Shou, he stuffed his three daughters Cao Xian, Cao Jie, and Cao Hua to Liu Xie. Since then, Liu Xie has been monitored even when he sleeps, so he can be regarded as completely giving up resistance.
Ma Chao is extremely fond of this eccentric elf's sister, and naturally does not want her to fall victim to political struggles. Besides, if Ma Yunlu and Liu Xie say that they have been in love for a long time and become a martyr like Cao Jie, things will only get hotter.
A wedding banquet, although there were two small episodes, finally ended with a beginning and an end. In the evening, the guests said goodbye one after another, and Ma Teng pulled Han Sui back to his house to continue the banquet. Han Sui greatly praised Ma Chao, because of Ma Chao's arrival, Han Sui obviously mixed better, and now Liangzhou has completely fallen into his sphere of influence, and there is no foreign enemy except for internal chaos.
Ma Chao also ordered the cook to prepare wine and food to reward the sergeants in charge of guarding inside and outside the mansion, and let them be divided into three shifts to guard at night. It wasn't until now that he understood why Dong Zhuo didn't live in the city, but instead built the West Garden into a Wu Fort and lived in it.
Luoyang City is huge, with a population of tens of thousands, and it is not a problem to hide thousands of people, if there is a master who comes to the General's Mansion to assassinate, it is really difficult to guard against, after all, there are only thousands of thieves, how can there be a reason to prevent thieves? The West Park Fort was different, it was a sparsely populated place, and it was difficult for the Assassins to infiltrate as long as the army was stationed on the periphery. Ma Chao is also thinking about whether to live in the West Garden like Dong Zhuo and experience the taste of the lotus bare pool.
Come to think of it, Ma Chao didn't dare to do this, at least now is not the time for pleasure. At nightfall, Ma Chao had a drink with Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, Dian Wei, Pang De and several other confidant generals, and then handed over the task of accompanying the wine to the three brothers Ma Dai, Ma Xiu and Ma Tie, and walked towards the new house with a smile.
The two lives are human, especially in this life, there are many beauties around them early, the two concubines Yang Wan and Dong Xuan have already reached the age of Jilu, Du Xiuniang and Cai Yan are already eighteen years old, and they can be picked. But Ma Chao only took advantage of some of the money at hand, at most he kissed and kissed, and he never broke through the last step.
As soon as I entered the new house, I saw Liu Li sitting on the couch accompanied by four loli, and under the candlelight, she was as beautiful as jade. As soon as a few people saw Ma Chao coming, their little faces were red and shy, ancient women developed early, and their mothers would teach everything that should be taught before they got married, so they all knew what was going to happen next.
Ma Chao didn't want to eat five in one go, so he waved his hand and said: "Since you enter the Ma family, you will be my Ma Chao's person in the future, as long as you are willing to serve the general and his wife with all your heart, the general will never treat you badly, I am tired for a day, let's go down and rest first!" Someone will take care of the arrangement. ”
"Yes!" The identity of the four is just to marry maids, and they can't be called husbands before Ma Chao doesn't possess them, if Ma Chao doesn't touch them for the rest of his life, they can only stay widowed for a lifetime and be slaves for a lifetime.
The four of them answered and retreated, and there were only two protagonists left in a huge new house, and there was a strong sense of spring. Ma Chao and Liu Li don't get along for a while, they are very affectionate, and they don't have any raw points.
At that moment, he took off his wedding robe and sat next to Liu Li, smelling the familiar body fragrance, and couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. stretched out his arms around her little waist and said softly: "**A moment is worth a thousand gold, let's rest too!" ”
Liu Liqiao's face was full of flowers, her beautiful eyes were shy, and she said coquettishly: "The night is still long, it's better for your husband to accompany your concubine to have a few drinks!" ”
"Why not?" The two sat on the stool in front of the bed, chatting over dried fruit snacks and drinking each other.
Ma Chao had already drunk a lot of sake, and after a few glasses of wine, he was already drunk and hazy, and suddenly saw Liu Li suddenly sigh deeply, and unconsciously sobbed.
Ma Chao felt the difference slightly, and said strangely: "Today is the day when you and I are happy, why is Mrs. crying?" ”
Liu Li said: "The concubine is crying with joy, and at the same time she has some things in her heart that she wants to say to her husband!" ”
Ma Chao suddenly sobered up a little and sighed: "Madame don't say it, I also know what you're thinking?" It's nothing more than beware of my Ma Chao's plot to usurp the throne and take away your Liu family's 400 years of power! Makes it difficult for you to do both! Yes or not? ”
Liu Li trembled, gritted his teeth and nodded.
Ma Chao drank another glass of sake, got up and said, "If I say I don't want to be the emperor, you won't believe it!" Now that we have become husband and wife, my husband will no longer hide it from you! After a pause, he said: "My Ma family is a famous family in the world, and it was originally a big warlord in Liangzhou, and he once rebelled!" But looking at the whole world, which prince is loyal to the Han family? This is not the fault of my Ma family, nor is it the fault of the princes of the world! In the final analysis, it is your Han Liu family who is immoral! ”
"The Han dynasty has been in the country for four hundred years, and the people of the world have been blessed, although there is Wang Mang's rebellion, but after the revival of Guangwu Zhongxing, it is better than before, which can be described as extremely rich! However, since Emperor Heng Liu Zhi began to favor eunuchs, support the family, and alienate the loyal and good, the foundation of the Han family has begun to waver. In the period of the first emperor, this phenomenon became more and more serious, and after two "party disasters" and the rebellion of the Yellow Turban thieves, the Han family completely lost its dominance over the locality, and the big and small families took the opportunity to become bigger, and the poor people were displaced and miserable, and gradually formed a situation where the local princes were divided and fought endlessly!
