Chapter 34: Control of Tianshui
Mrs. Ma smiled and let go of the girl in her arms. Now that Ma Yunlu has already left the city, Cao Jun can't catch up.
"Brother Rui, I have found a secret passage, and I have already sent someone to chase it." Cao Zhang came to Lu Rui's side and quietly told Lu Rui.
"Lu Rui, you can't catch up, you give up, the other end of the secret passage is all Xiliang high-grade horses, even if you chase now, there are no horses available." Madame Ma smiled with satisfaction, turned and sat back on the throne, picked up a robe next to her, and draped it over her body.
"Jiang is born as a member of the Ma family, and death is a ghost of the Ma family!"
"If you don't die, you want to kill yourself, it's impossible!" Cao Zhang made a flying leg and knocked Mrs. Ma down.
"Ziwen, take good care of her, kill her again on the execution ground tomorrow, and then hang the body on the city tower, be eaten by beasts, and comfort the souls of my son and uncle."
"No!"
After Mrs. Ma heard Lu Rui's instructions, she didn't say anything, she was very calm, and her cold face didn't show the slightest change, as if all this was expected.
"Old immortal, see if you dare to commit suicide." Cao Zhang strangled Mrs. Ma's collarbone with all his strength and brought Mrs. Ma down.
When Lu Rui controlled the Ma clan in the General's Mansion, there was also a brief period of chaos in Xiliang City. Wang Ju was sniped by Cao Li on the way to the treasury, and the rest of the Xiliang soldiers were either killed or surrendered.
In the mansion of the head of the Zhao family, the head of the Zhao family was pacing back and forth in the courtyard, waiting for news from the housekeeper. Lu Rui's success or failure in Tianshui determines the future fate of the family.
"Sir, sir, good news. Lu Rui had already raided General Ma Teng's mansion. Capture all the Ma clansmen. Except for Ma Yunlu's little girl who ran away. Just when the head of the Zhao family was anxious, the housekeeper brought news.
"Oh? Did Lu Rui really win? The head of the Zhao family showed a surprised expression, Lu Rui's victory meant a new start for the Zhao family in Tianshui. The Ma family reused the Qiang people, Cao Cao came, how can he also reuse the Han people, and the opportunity for his family will come.
"Yes, master, Lu Rui has controlled the Taishou Mansion with lightning speed. Now Tianshui has completely fallen under the control of Cao Jun. ”
"Okay, it seems that Lu Rui is really powerful, no wonder he was adopted by Cao Cao as an adopted son, and the young man was made a marquis."
"By the way, how is that guy Zhao Ang?" The head of the Zhao family remembered Zhao Ang, if that kid died in the chaos of the army, it would be the best, if Xiliang changed the master, Zhao Ang would not be of much use in the Zhao family, a stable Xiliang Zhao Ang This kind of talent, it is better not to keep it. This has always been a great trouble for his son.
"Master, Zhao Ang is unscathed. Now he is taking the family soldiers outside the house to prepare to report to the master. The housekeeper arched his hand and returned to the head of the Zhao family.
"It seems that this kid's life should not be extinguished, since this is the case, let him in, you go to the treasury to reward this kid, as for his life, you will take it next time." The head of the Zhao family squinted his eyes, the Qiang people of the Ma Alliance will definitely counterattack Xiliang, and Zhao Ang will be a pawn that can be used at that time.
"Yes, sir!" The housekeeper took the order and led Zhao Ang in.
"The head of the family, Ang has lived up to his trust and completed his mission." Zhao Ang came in with his soldiers and reported to the head of the Zhao family.
"Good! Zhao Ang, well done, it seems that the hope of the Zhao family in the future is on you. The housekeeper gave the property to Zhao Ang. "The head of the Zhao family didn't want to talk to Zhao Ang much, he just wanted to send him away ceremoniously and let him go back, which is usually done anyway.
"Yes, sir." The butler handed over the gold and silver to Zhao Ang.
"Thank you, head of the family, Ang still has a report."
"Oh? What else? The head of the Zhao family was stunned for a moment, Zhao Ang usually left after receiving the reward, and today there were other things to ask for, which was really unprecedented.
"The head of the family, in some time it will be the time for the election of the heir of the Zhao family, I don't know what the head of the family thinks?" Zhao Ang sneered in his heart, today is your death.
"Zhao Ang? Is this also something you should ask? I am free to arrange this matter. The head of the Zhao family replied to Zhao Ang unhappily that he had already made detailed arrangements for his son to sit in the position of heir through the support of the clan elders.
"The head of the family, the rules of our Zhao family's family are those who are capable, and the small actions of the head of the family in the clan are put away, the elders are not blind, and the clansmen are not blind."
"Presumptuous, presumptuous, too presumptuous! Zhao Ang, what kind of attitude do you have, I am still the head of the Zhao family, and this matter is also something you can talk about? When did I make a small move, you don't want to spew blood! The head of the Zhao family hammered the table, jumped up, and pointed at Zhao Ang and scolded.
"The head of the family, Ang is the last time to call you like this, sometimes you calculate too deeply, and you will suffer." Zhao Ang ignored the howl of the head of the Zhao family, and just answered slowly according to his plan.
"For the last time, Zhao Ang, what do you mean?" The head of the Zhao family showed a vigilant expression.
"The head of the family, Master Hou asked me to bring you a word, the two-headed grass man, die!" Zhao Ang slowly spit out this sentence, and his cold gaze went straight to the head of the Zhao family.
"What! You traitor, come here, take him down, today I will enforce the family law! The head of the Zhao family was taken aback and hurriedly ordered someone to control Zhao Ang.
There was silence, there was silence, and the soldiers around Zhao Ang were as immobile as wood.
"You dead people, what are you eating, and you don't listen to the master's words?" The butler let out a loud shout and slapped one of the soldiers.
"Kill!" Zhao Ang spat out a killing word from his mouth, and the soldier pulled out a dagger and stabbed the housekeeper to death.
"Family master, take a closer look, are these still your people?" Zhao Ang smiled and pointed to the soldiers beside him.
"This?" The head of the Zhao family looked at it, his gaze changed from frightened to dull, these people were not his henchmen at all, but a group of fresh faces.
"Hahahaha! Zhao Ang, I lost, it's a pity that I didn't kill you earlier, I lost, I can give you my life today, but please spare my son for the sake of the same clan. "The head of the Zhao family knew that there was no hope today, so he could only make a father's last request, although he knew that it might be useless.
"Don't worry, Ang is not a murderous person, I will take good care of your son, so that he has no worries about food and clothing, and the elders of the clan will not let a murderous person serve as the patriarch."
"Good! Such a decisive decision is worthy of being the head of the family, I lost, just this alone, I lost, I hope that the Xiliang Zhao clan can be more prosperous under your leadership. The head of the Zhao family smiled, compared to Zhao Ang, he has shortcomings, not to mention his waste son, it is enough to have Zhao Ang's promise.
"Take it down, let him have a decent way to die." Zhao Ang turned around, waved his hand, and asked the soldiers to take the head of the Zhao family down.
"Yes, sir!"
At the same time, Cao Pi led elite assassins to fish in troubled waters and killed several scholars who opposed Cao Cao. Lu Rui preliminarily controlled Tianshui City with seven hundred elites. (To be continued......)
