After arranging everything, Ma Zhi went back again, after all, his current identity is a servant of the envoy of the Chinese Federation, if he does not return at night, it is easy to arouse suspicion, even if he finds an excuse to sleep in the willows, but moral criticism cannot be accepted by the envoy.

Liu Fan and Li Zheng went to Mafu in Linhuangfu City, Shangjing, to find the boss Ma Rouji, and reported to him that Ma Lao Eryi had quietly returned after a new year, and was ready to eat Yanyun's pot meat, and then everyone secretly arranged everything according to Ma Zhi's plan......

After Ma Zhi returned to the envoy station, he saw that everyone was idle, and after inquiring, he learned that the emperor of Liao sent an edict, saying that the envoy of the Southern Dynasty Cheng Wanli should rest for a day in the Jinting Pavilion to relieve the fatigue of the long journey, which made the strings in the hearts of most of the envoys loosen a little.

So the next day, Ma Zhi once again followed the crowd and swaggered out of the Golden Pavilion Pavilion and wandered out of the street. When he walked into the small courtyard, he was already hugged by one person: "Second brother! The words were concise and affectionate, tears were already raining down, and Li Zheng and Liu Fan were on the side, also accompanied by tears.

This person is Ma Zhi's brother Ma Rouji, he and Ma Zhi are separated from each other in the north and south, and they haven't seen each other for several years.

Ma Zhi's eyes couldn't help but turn red, but he still suppressed his feelings and said, "Big brother, if you just hug your head and cry, can you cry back to Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures?" ”

Hearing this, Ma Rouji hurriedly wiped away the tears and said, "It's me who forgot my feelings!" ”

Ma Zhi asked, "How did the little brother do yesterday?" ”

The three brothers said in unison: "Fortunately, I am not dishonored!" ”

Ma Zhi was overjoyed when he heard this: "In this case, let's hurry up!" ”

At the moment, everyone helped Ma Zhi to put on his hair, and after a while, he dressed up as a Liao State guard, Ma Zhi looked for a self-portrait of the copper realm, and couldn't help laughing: "Your Excellency, this plan is really exquisite!" Come on, big brother, let's go see the old man! ”

The old man in Ma Zhi's words refers to Ma Renwang, the patriarch of the Ma clan in Linhuang Mansion in Shangjing, Ma Rouji and Ma Zhi, all of whom are his children and grandchildren. Don't look at the current horse people who are over eighty years old, but the Liao Emperor Yelu Yanxi respects him as a person, and temporarily demotes Xiao Feng, who is a close confidant, or invites the old man to go to the court, and Yelu Dabei Nu, Xiao Chara, Chai Yi, and Wu Yong are in charge of the north and south courtyards, and they are in a high position.

The problem is that although Ma Renwang is a moral and ethical minister, in the end, people are not capable of muscles and bones, and asking him to work all day is really urging him to die early. Therefore, Emperor Yelu Yanxi of Tianzuo of the Liao State was gracious, and allowed him to go back to the house to rest and recuperate, so as not to let the old arms and legs work ineffectively, and explain where he is.

Enjoy this special treatment, there are also Yelu Dabei Nu, Xiao Chala, Chai Yi, Wu Yong four people, these four courtiers have the same power as Ma Renwang, and they are also the same age, the five of them add up to 400 years old, all of them belong to the coffin scoop level, let them do things, it is simply the price of tofu and meat. Of course, Yelu Yanxi knew that these five old men were inefficient, but he just wanted to use these five people, and when the government was so desolate that it was unbearable, he could promote the original Xiao Fengxian back.

According to the usual practice, today's horse people are finished looking at the morning point, and now they should have returned to their own house to recuperate, Ma Zhi is going to take this opportunity to visit the old man - others don't know, but he belongs to the close nephew, naturally know that although Lian Po is old, he can still eat rice and noodles.

It's just that Ma Zhi is a traitor of the Liao State in the end, and he blatantly appeared in the Ma family's house, which is really shocking, so he disguised himself and changed his disguise, only pushing the guard of his brother Ma Rouji, and quietly slipped to the old man's side, and when he retreated left and right, he suddenly stepped forward to reveal his true face and meet him.

Seeing that Ma Zhi's dress stopped, Ma Rouji came out first, Ma Zhi held a big brocade box behind him and followed with low eyebrows, Li Zheng and Liu Fan sent Ma Rouji and them out with great fanfare - in the eyes of outsiders, this is just the two major high-rollers in Linhuang Mansion in Beijing, Li Zheng and Liu Fan, who are using Ma Rouji to go through the door of Ma Renwang, in this era of bribery and bribery is justified in keeping pace with the times, what is it?

Ma Rouji rode a horse, Ma Zhi trotted all the way behind the horse, and soon arrived at the back door of the horse house and dismounted, and his own family members took the horse in. Ma Rouji pointed at Ma Zhi, who bowed his head, and said, "This is sent by Li Sanye and Liu Siye to present a gift to the boss - where is the boss?" ”

Li Sanye and Liu Siye have always had a good life with Ma Rouji, and the family has seen a lot earlier, so no one is surprised, so someone replied: "Young Master Huiji's words - the boss, as usual, is still in the study after the next dynasty." ”

Ma Rouji let out an "oh" when he heard this, and took Ma Zhi to the study. Ma Zhi lowered his head and walked all the way, his thoughts were surging, and he was full of emotion, he was familiar with these roads since he was a child, and he couldn't imagine that there would be a day when he would revisit this old place.

Stay outside the study, but only to see the bamboo shadow in all directions, quiet and pleasant, in front of the door standing two dozing hair children, the scene is like a painting. Ma Rouji and Ma Zhi looked at each other and smiled, and then Ma Rouji stepped forward and asked quietly, "Is the old man okay?" ”

Before the two children could answer, a vigorous voice sounded in the study: "Is it Rouji?" Come in and talk! ”

Ma Rouji nodded to Ma Zhi, and the two entered the study one after the other. Ma Rouji went directly into the room, Ma Zhi held the brocade box and only waited outside, looking at the old ancestor's study was still the same as a few years ago, there were almost no changes in the layout, Ma Zhi sighed in his heart - the old ancestor is a nostalgic temperament after all!

But he heard Ma Rouji in the inner entrance and said respectfully: "The child asks the ancestor for peace!" ”

Then the voice of the horse man looking at the old dragon bell rang: "Rouji, you are not young anymore, you should know some affairs, don't always mess with Li Sanye and Liu Siye." They are just fools in the market, clinging to you, and doing something behind your back, must affect the name of my Ma family - the book says that those who have no friends are not as good as themselves, but there is a reason! ”

Ma Rouji first agreed respectfully, and when Ma Renwang finished speaking, he smiled cautiously: "Ancestor, but he doesn't listen to the righteousness of slaughtering dogs, and his heart is always a scholar?" Although Xiao Li Xiaoliu is just a high-roller in the market, he still has some knowledge, and the child befriended them, which was also an elegant thing for Meng Weijun to love to lead the car and the like, so why be ashamed? Not to mention, but today, the two of them sent a gift to the ancestors, and they didn't ask the children to help them do anything, but just to talk to the ancestors to express their filial piety! ”

"Oh?" The centaur raised his eyebrows, "You kid, you don't learn, you don't learn, you learn to be a flower and a horse, what gift can you send?" Didn't defile my horse's land! ”

Ma Rouji smiled and said, "Old Ancestor, if it is such a stinky thing of copper, how can the child dare to sacrifice it to the Old Ancestor?" Even if it is a rare treasure at home and abroad, as soon as you step into the study of the ancestor, it will look vulgar - if it is not something that can make the ancestor's eyes shine, the child will not dare to take the opportunity to make the ancestor smile! ”

Hearing this, Ma Renwang's curiosity couldn't help but be hooked, so he smiled and said: "Hearing you say this, the old man wants to see and understand!" But let's talk about the ugly things ahead, I just see it, but I don't accept it, I don't want to take it, how can I break the rules of my life? ”

Ma Rouji said: "That's exactly the case-that gift, you can only look at it, Old Ancestor Bo, you smile, but you can't get it in your pocket." Ancestor, you just want it, but it's also a word - difficult; Two words - no! ”

When the centaur heard this, he laughed, "Present the gift!" The old man has lived for eighty years, and has eaten more salt than you have eaten, and has walked on bridges longer than the roads you have walked. ”

Nodding, Ma Rouji said: "Then please ask the ancestors to look at it!" Then he went out of the inner study and said to the two boys, "Go down first." ”

Since it is a treasure, it naturally cannot enter the eyes of outsiders, and it is also avoided that when the ancestors want to take it for their own use, they will be embarrassed in front of them, right? The two boys retreated in understanding.

Ma Zhi followed Ma Rouji into the inner study, bowed his head far away and knelt in front of the ancestor, and raised the brocade box with both hands and offered it high.

At this time, Ma Rouji did the courier work and delivered the brocade box from Ma Zhi's hand to Ma Renwang's hand.

The horseman looked at it, but he only felt that it was light, and he didn't dare to open the window to look, but he was afraid that the wind would blow into the bamboo forest, and the old man couldn't help but be more curious. So he smiled and lifted the lid of the box: "I want to see what the hell you dolls are doing!" ”

The lid opened, and the centaur looked intently—huh? The box turned out to be empty?!

Stunned, the horse man looked at Ma Rouji and asked, "What does this mean?" ”

Before Ma Rouji could answer, Ma Zhi had already said: "Only hollow can you fit the splendid rivers and mountains of Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures!" ”

Hearing this, the horseman looked at the shock and stood up tremblingly: "It turned out to be you little animal!" ”

Ma Zhi burst into tears: "The child was brave and turned his back on Liao to enter the Song Dynasty, but he humiliated the family and smeared the face of the ancestor even more!" ”

His face changed slightly, and Ma Renwang sat back slowly, and said in a cold voice: "It's strange that Li San and Liu Si came to give gifts today!" I forgot, when the old ** little beast was there, he and Rouji got together with the two of them, and how many disasters were done! Today, ** actually has the audacity to grow hair, and dares to sneak back to this Beijing Linhuang Mansion, there must be an unsightly plan - don't you recruit me from the truth?! ”

In the end, the tone changed abruptly!

Ma Zhi wiped a handful of tears, raised his head and looked at the horseman: "The child knows that he is deeply guilty, and he only wants to put a pillar of incense in front of the spirit of the Taizu Sect Yinqing, although he dies without hatred!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Ma Renwang suddenly fell silent. This is exactly what it is:

Mo Dao Beidi is Hu language, can it be known that the southern courtyard is Han? But I don't know what will happen next, and listen to the next breakdown.
