Chapter 239: A Woman
readx;? Ma Rufeng stared at Liu Sandao with his eyes like a torch, the main hall was solemn, and several banner owners were even more uneasy for a while, they didn't want to break with Ma Rufeng, but now Liu Sandao's blatant provocation has made this matter to a point where it is difficult to save. What kind of person is Ma Rufeng www.biquge.info except for Lu Yifan and a few people here, there is no one here who does not understand.
provoked Ma Rufeng, it was even more troublesome than directly angering Chu Lingtian. This one-eyed lieutenant has always been a tendon in his work, and if he really makes a move, then one person will inevitably die here, and no matter which one dies, it will be a great trouble for the Border Guard Mansion.
"Dudu!" Ma Rufeng's eyes still converged on Liu Sandao's body, since Liu Sandao provoked him verbally, Ma Rufeng's gaze has never left Liu Sandao, even if he spoke to Xi Chen at this moment, his eyes did not move at all, "If I remember correctly, there doesn't seem to be this person in your border guard mansion, right?"
What does Ma Rufeng mean by this, the people present are not stupid, everyone listens clearly. As long as Xi Chen affirms his answer, then Ma Rufeng will inevitably do it directly, which is already an undoubted thing.
There was a solemnity in the main hall, everyone stared at Ma Rufeng and Liu Sandao silently, time seemed to be completely frozen at this moment, except for the sound of everyone's heartbeat could prove that time passed, everything around seemed to be stagnant at this moment.
"Yes and what? What if not?" Lu Yifan got up suddenly, and his cold gaze shot directly at Ma Rufeng, "What do you want to do?"
Hearing Lu Yifan interject, Ma Rufeng slowly moved his gaze away from Liu Sandao's body, and when he saw the strange Lu Yifan, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and then asked faintly: "I heard that it was a young man who provoked the general's friend in the town today, and now I look at your reaction, could you be Lu Yifan?"
"I don't change my name, I don't change my surname!" I am Lu Yifan!" Lu Yifan replied bluntly, "Today's events are indeed caused by me, if you have anything to say, then you might as well talk to me directly!"
"You?" Ma Rufeng sneered and snorted, "Are you worthy?" Now that the world has really changed, any cat or dog can sit in the main hall of the northern frontier, isn't it that the rules of the Border Guard Mansion are becoming more and more lax?"
"Bald, believe it or not, I won't let you out of this palace tonight!" Liu Sandao stared at Ma Rufeng with a bloodthirsty gaze, he has always regarded Lu Yifan as the master, and the most intolerable thing is that someone is disrespectful to Lu Yifan, not to mention that this Ma Rufeng is still disrespectful again and again today.
"Don't worry, I will definitely give you this opportunity!" Ma Rufeng sneered, "As long as you are not from the Border Guard Mansion......"
"You're mistaken!" Without waiting for Ma Rufeng's voice to fall, Xi Chen suddenly spoke, his voice changed from his previous laziness, and his solemn expression made everyone in the hall shocked, "They are all from my Border Guard Mansion now!" And the woman Lu Yifan stopped today was not an innocent provocation, but because he suspected that the woman would plot against the three children after taking away the three children, as a person from the Border Guard Mansion, he was naturally obliged to investigate, there seems to be nothing wrong with this, right?"
As soon as Xi Chen's words came out, Lu Yifan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, he never expected that Xi Chen would stand up for him at this critical moment to block Ma Rufeng, and a trace of gratitude appeared in his eyes when he looked at Xi Chen.
It's just that Xi Chen's words made Ma Rufeng's whole person's momentum suddenly become low, his face was now so heavy that he couldn't wring out the water, and there was an indescribable strange look in his eyes when he looked at Xi Chen.
The current Ma Rufeng is like a lion about to get angry, but for some reason he is deliberately suppressing his emotions.
"Dudu, is this true?" Ma Rufeng said word by word through gritted teeth.
"Do you think Pontus has time to tell you jokes here?" Xi Chen seemed to be very dissatisfied with Ma Rufeng's attitude, and his face became a little gloomy at the moment.
"One-eyed, don't forget what kind of place this is, if you dare to go wild here, I guarantee that you won't be able to go back to the camp!" Tan Si saw that Xi Chen had already spoken, and he was a little more confident in his heart at the moment, so he said viciously.
"Hehe, in that case, maybe it's really just a misunderstanding!" Hu Fu once again acted as a peacemaker, although Xi Chen was obviously shielding Lu Yifan and a few others, but Hu Fu understood in his heart that Xi Chen's original intention was not to fall out with Ma Rufeng over this. Or rather, a falling out with the entire border battalion.
And Xi Chen, as the lord of a mansion, naturally cannot condescend to Ma Rufeng and ask for peace, so this white face can only be sung by Hu Fu.
"If it's really a misunderstanding, then please let the border guard house release people quickly!" Ma Rufeng, who is irritable by nature, is now the limit, and if he continues to say some polite words, it will be impossible at all, so he is far less polite than before.
"Ma Rufeng, are you looking at the envoy of Pontus?" Xi Chen slowly sat up from the servant girl's body, and two extremely cold eyes shot straight at Ma Rufeng's body, and at the same time, a faint coercion slowly spread in the main hall, and the pressure was so great that Ma Rufeng's face became a little pale.
"Governor, that's a friend of my general, if the governor refuses to let me bring people back today, it won't give my general this face......"
"Even if I don't give Chu Lingtian this face, what can he do?" Xi Chen hated others for threatening him the most, and his tone became more and more hardened at the moment.
"I ......"
"Huh...... Everyone is serving the emperor, and they are also a family, so why hurt the harmony of the family because of a small misunderstanding?" Seeing this, Hai Lao couldn't help but slowly speak, "Vice General Ma is irritable by nature, and our Lu Gongzi's temper is not very good, everyone has touched Mai Mang, but in fact, the matter is not so serious!"
"Who are you?" Ma Rufeng set his eyes on Hai Lao, and a trace of curiosity flashed on his face.
"Hehe, Vice Admiral Ma may not know me, but I think you must have heard of my son-in-law!" Hai Lao said and stretched out his hand towards Lan Chen, "Lan Chen, the second son of Lan Shixun, the Duke of Zhenbei, I don't know if Vice General Ma knows?"
As soon as he heard Lan Chen's name, Ma Rufeng was stunned at first, and then a very strong look of surprise appeared in his single eye, only to see him staring at Lan Chen in surprise, and said in a slurred voice: "This is ...... Lan Chen's son?"
"Do you recognize me?" Lan Chen asked curiously.
"The name of the prince of Lanchen is one-eyed, and I have already been like thunder!" Ma Rufeng nodded with a smile and said, his mildness was really surprising.
"You know me, but why don't you recognize Lu Yifan?" Lan Chen said, and looked at Lu Yifan, who was also confused next to him.
"Hmph! There are countless people in the holy realm of those who sell fame and reputation, and I have always disdained to know one-eyed! And Lan Gongzi's name, not only do I know it, but I am afraid that there is no one up and down the border camp who does not know it! Haha......" Ma Rufeng laughed again as he spoke, and Lu Yifan felt that Ma Rufeng's kindness to Lan Chen was from the heart, and it was by no means hypocritical.
"That's very good!" Hu Fu took advantage of the situation to say, "Lan Chen Gongzi is also a member of my Border Guard Mansion now, since Deputy General Ma knows, then why not give Lan Chen Gongzi a thin face, let us turn the war into a jade silk, after all, the Border Guard Mansion and the Border Defense Camp are in the same lineage, and it will not be good for both of us to make it too stiff! Come on, don't you bring someone to me!" Hu Fu said and gave an order.
After hearing Hu Fu's words, Xi Chen only glanced at Ma Rufeng coldly, and then lay back on his side on the maid's body again, closing his eyes again and recuperating.
After a while, I saw Long Biao and a few people slowly walking into the main hall around a masked woman wearing a hat.
It's late at night, but the woman is still wearing a hat and white veil to cover her face, which makes people feel a little puzzled.
"Is this the person your general wants?" Xi Chen didn't open his eyes either, and said softly to himself.
"Exactly!" Ma Rufeng said affirmatively after just one glance, "Thank you for your magnanimity!"
"Since I'm a friend of General Chu, I naturally won't deliberately make things difficult, as long as this girl tells the purpose of you buying those three children, you can leave!" Xi Chen's tone was still flat and direct.
"I ......" the woman had just opened her mouth to speak, but she was immediately swallowed back by herself, because her pronunciation of the word "I" was obviously completely different from the hoarse and shriveled during the day, it was clearly a young woman's voice.
Although the woman only said a short word 'I', the thoughtful Lu Yifan still felt a faint familiarity from this word.
"Girl, have we ever met?" Lu Yifan suddenly asked.
The woman stopped talking, but shook her head silently, which was a response to Lu Yifan.
"But why do I think you seem to be familiar!" Lu Yifan asked again.
"Lu Gongzi, right?" Ma Rufeng immediately raised his feet and walked in front of the woman, completely covering the woman behind him with his thick body, and then said loudly to Lu Yifan, "It seems a little wrong for a big man to ask a young girl again and again?"
"I just love children, that's why I bought those three children, and I plan to raise them in the future!" the woman finally spoke, but her voice was hoarse and shriveled again. It seems that she doesn't want Ma Rufeng and Lu Yifan to be entangled in their own problems for too long.
"Love children?" Xi Chen slowly opened his mouth, and there seemed to be some questioning in his tone, "You are a young girl who loves children?"
"Yes! I like children very much!" replied the woman, "and I have paid their parents enough silver shells, not to rob them!
"En!" Xi Chen seemed to think about it for a moment, and then nodded slightly.
"Now that the matter has been figured out, it is definitely a misunderstanding. If there is nothing else, I think I will take someone to say goodbye first!After all, my general is still waiting for his friend in the camp!" Ma Rufeng saw that Xi Chen no longer spoke, so he simply asked for his resignation, and did not forget to move Chu Lingtian out again. He knew very well in his heart that the reason why Xi Chen turned a blind eye to his disrespectful remarks three times and twice today was not because of his big face, nor because of Xi Chen's broad-mindedness, but because he had to rely on Chu Lingtian's face.
If it weren't for Chu Lingtian holding 100,000 soldiers stationed in the northern frontier, he would definitely not have the qualifications to talk to Xi Chen tonight.
"Wait a minute!"
However, just when Ma Rufeng was about to take the woman to turn around and leave, Lu Yifan suddenly opened his mouth to stop him: "Actually, I also like children very much, so I am willing to pay ten times the price now, I don't know if the girl can cut her love?"
"This ......" Lu Yifan's words made the woman hesitate a little, and at the same time, her head also turned slightly to Ma Rufeng, as if asking what Ma Rufeng meant.
"It's just a few children, if you don't need it so much, just give it to him!" Lan Chen also took the opportunity to help Lu Yifan speak, he wanted to take this opportunity to give Lu Yifan a favor.
"This ......"
"Since Gongzi Lanchen has spoken, then we will naturally give this face!" Without waiting for the woman to open her mouth again, Ma Rufeng was the first to agree happily, "We will leave these three children to Gongzi Lu! As for the money, there is no need, it should be a favor given to you by Gongzi Lanchen!"
After that, Ma Rufeng didn't say much, and under the signal of his eyes, more than a dozen soldiers who followed him hurriedly surrounded the women, and then carefully escorted the woman to turn around and leave the main hall of Northern Xinjiang like an escort princess.
Ma Rufeng, who left at the end, arched his hand at Xi Chen again, and said loudly: "I will tell the general truthfully when I go back to the governor's kindness, and the general will send a thank you gift to the mansion in the near future, and I hope that the governor will be able to accept it with a smile when the time comes!"
"You're welcome, let's take your people with you!" Xi Chen waved his hand casually.
Ma Rufeng didn't say much after hearing this, and arched his hand at Lan Chen again, and then turned around and walked towards the outside of the hall without looking back.
At this moment, Ma Rufeng's subordinates and the woman were standing quietly outside the temple gate waiting for him. But Lu Yifan's eyes were always staring closely at the woman who was masked by the white veil, and somehow he always felt that he had met this woman somewhere before. It's familiar, but it's impossible to say what kind of familiarity it is.
"Whew!"
However, at the moment when Ma Rufeng walked out of the main hall, a cold wind suddenly blew across the night sky, and the night wind in the north was extremely cold and biting, which made the thin woman can't help but shrink her neck slightly, and at the moment when she shrunk her neck, the night wind suddenly blew through the white veil under her hat, and a smooth and soft side face appeared in Lu Yifan's eyes in a fleeting manner, and it was such a side face that made Lu Yifan's originally hesitant face instantly become solemn.
"It turned out to be her! Mrs. Zhao's personal maid, Yu'er!"
