The Chinese army set out from Zeshan County and went north to Chongwen County, intending to cross Chongwen, Chengde, and Zimeridian to force Yanzhou.

At the front of the army, Ning Ze rode a shadow, and his little daughter-in-law Ma Cicada Pei sat in his arms.

The little girl was holding a jade carved horse in her hand and playing seriously.

A group of generals behind Ning Ze followed on horseback, looking at this scene quite speechless.

"Brother," Dewey couldn't help it, and finally leaned over, "Let's go to the battlefield, is it appropriate to take this girl with us?"

"Then what do you say?" Ning Ze asked rhetorically.

Dewey was speechless, it was true that except for Ning Ze, no one could make this girl quiet.

The main Ning Ze will use all kinds of "spells" to coax the child to be invincible, and soon attracted her attention, and she didn't cry anymore to go home.

Thanks to Ning Ze, he will also help take care of his children when he is at home, unlike other big men, after gaining experience, it is relatively easy to deal with children with "spells".

At present, Ma Chanpei can only not cry or make trouble in front of Ning Ze, and there is a sense of security.

But it would be an exaggeration to come out to fight and take her with you. For other generals, no matter if she cries, as long as she is placed in Zeshan County for a period of time, she will naturally get used to it and gradually accept the reality.

"Lord Wang, the last general feels that it is indeed inappropriate to take her to fight. Ding Mu also rode forward and whispered to Ning Ze, "Once the fight starts, it's quite dangerous." ”

"Don't worry, no one can hurt her in Lone's hands!" Ning Ze's confidence came from his super cheat.

Seeing him say this, Dewey and Ding Mu glanced at each other, shook their heads helplessly, and said no more.

What Ning Ze decided basically couldn't be changed.

The army entered the territory of Chongwen County, and Ma Jian's army came to greet him.

The leader was Ma Jian's cousin Ma Xiu, the general of the border army of Chongwen County.

Coming to the front of the Chinese army, Ma Xiu and his subordinates immediately surrendered their hands: "Ma Xiu, the cavalry general of Nanchengtun, meet the king of Danyang! At the order of His Majesty, the last general will lead the way and take the prince to Yanzhou." ”

When the words fell, he was stunned when he saw Ma Chanpei sitting in Ning Ze's arms.

He knew that Ma Chanpei was sent to Ning Ze's camp for marriage, but he didn't expect Ning Ze to take her with him, this is a trip to the battlefield, not an outing, what does the other party think? Or is he not satisfied with this daughter-in-law, he deliberately brought her to the battlefield and found a dangerous place to deal with her?

Ning Ze had some knowledge of Matthew's information, and after seeing it in person, the information became clearer.

Ma Xiu is Ma Jian's cousin and Ma Chanpei's cousin.

Ning Ze greeted Matthew, knowing that the other party was nominally an escort, but in fact it was for surveillance. After all, Ma Jianjun's air defense was weak, and if Ning Ze used an excuse to cross the territory and suddenly attack from behind, it would be difficult for them to deal with it.

After the two sides said hello, Ma Xiu turned to Ma Chanpei and frowned slightly: "Girl, my cousin is here, why do you ignore it?"

Ma Chanpei glanced up at him and ignored him.

"You girl......" Matthew was a little displeased when he saw her attitude.

Ning Ze smiled helplessly, and said to Ma Xiu: "This child is sulking! Who told you to trick her over and leave her by Lone's side." ”

"Uh~" Matthew was speechless.

To be honest, he doesn't actually support the marriage of his niece, but in this case, there is no way. When Ning Ze said this, it made him feel a little sorry for the child. So he changed the topic: "Lord Wang, this side has been prepared, and the last general, as a guide, will send you to Yanzhou as soon as possible." ”

"Well, I'm sorry for the troublesome general!" Ning Ze nodded and said softly to Ma Chanpei, "Girl, do you want to go over and talk to your cousin?"

Ma Chanpei turned her head to look at the expectant Matthew, snorted softly, turned her head away, and continued to play with the jewel-carved horse around the neck of the Shadow, jumping and jumping on its dense mane.

Matthew showed an embarrassed expression, it stands to reason that he was sent to the enemy camp, this kid shouldn't be uneasy all the time, and when he saw his relatives, he pounced on him as soon as he saw it?

The child's temperament is quite big.

In order to alleviate the embarrassment, he directly led the team to accompany Ning Ze, and the two sides joined forces, marched slowly along the avenue, and marched to the north.

Ning Ze checked Ma Jian's military situation all the way through the virtual map, noting down the distribution of troops, the number, and weak defense points, including various terrains that could be used, and other specific information, all of which were not spared.

The other party didn't know about his ability, and thought that he had done a good job of secrecy, and monitored the whole process during this time, and did not let him get close to any military facilities. Who would have thought that Ning Ze didn't need to enter the military facilities at all, as long as he was within the range, he could obtain detailed information.

The team crossed the three counties, and finally came to the boundary of Yanzhou, stopping at the meridian county controlled by Ma Jian.

"Further on the border of the Liang Kingdom, the last general can only be sent here!" Ma Xiu said, "The road ahead is dangerous, the prince should pay attention to safety! Our main forces are all in the west, and they are fighting with Sima Fa's army, and they are unable to support. The sword has no eyes, so it is better to leave Chan Pei for the time being, and when the prince returns victoriously, he will take her to Huajun. ”

When Matthew said this, he actually wanted to save his cousin and niece. If Ma Chanpei can be left, Ma Jian is not really allied with Ning Ze anyway, but just uses the other party. Once Ning Ze and Lu Cong start a war, nothing else matters after the goal is achieved.

Take advantage of this time to send Ma Chanpei home, firstly, to reunite their father and daughter and reunite the family, and secondly, to have no worries, and they will not have any worries because their cousin and niece are in the hands of the other party.

The moment Matthew proposed, Ning Ze saw through his thoughts. It's just that he wasn't worried, and asked Ma Chanpei sitting in his arms softly: "Girl, do you want to stay here?"

Ma Chanpei turned his head to look at Ma Xiu, then looked up at Ning Ze with a gentle face, hesitated for a while and shook his head.

If it was her own father Ma Jian at the scene, let her stay in person, maybe Ma Chanpei would agree. But it was Matthew who spoke, and the kid was awkward because they had left themselves in Zeshan. Along the way, Ning Ze really treated her as his daughter, pampered her, and had magical "spells" that others couldn't do, and she could take out a lot of magical treasures for her to play with. Unless it's the biological parents coming over, it's hard to be persuaded by other people.

The problem is that Ma Jian and his wife simply don't have time to run here, and their attention is all on the Sima Fa army in the north.

Seeing that his cousin's niece was so decisive, Ma Xiu said in his heart, could it be that Ning Ze cast a spell on her? Although I am a cousin, the relationship with the child in my memory is okay, and I don't annoy her! Why is she so close to Ning Ze, a stranger, along the way, but ignores me as an uncle?

In front of Ning Ze, he couldn't overdo it, so as not to anger the other party. can only continue to persuade Ma Chanpei, hoping that his niece will be obedient.

It's a pity that you can't reason with children.

In the end, Ma Xiu could only watch Ning Ze take her away and march in the direction of Yanzhou.

The dynamics on Ning Ze's side, Sima Fa has already mastered it.

Therefore, the soldiers and horses of the Chinese State arrived at the border of Gu'an County, and the Taishou of Gu'an had already led his troops to guard the border checkpoint, and Sima Fa's messenger suddenly appeared and moved directly to the Ningze camp.

The envoy arrived at the camp in Ningze and explained his intentions.

Ning Ze summoned his subordinates and met him at the main account.

The envoy entered the tent, first saluted Ning Ze respectfully, and looked up to see a cute little girl sitting in Ning Ze's arms, and was slightly stunned. Quickly remembered the information I got recently, this little girl was Ma Jian's seventh daughter, Ma Chanpei, who was used for marriage.

I didn't expect Ning Ze to take the child with him and come directly to the battlefield, what was he thinking? Bringing such a child to the battlefield, wishing she would die sooner?

However, this kind of thing has nothing to do with him, so he was stunned for a moment, and stepped forward to bow and salute: "The foreign minister greets the prince!"

"No courtesy!" Ning Ze smiled and helped, "I don't know if the messenger is coming, what do you have to say?"

"I heard that the prince and Ma Jian have allied and sent troops to attack our Liang country, so I have come to convince the prince!" the messenger replied.

"Oh? Ning Ze laughed, "How are you going to convince Gu to let Gu collect his troops?"

"Lord Wang, Ma Jian married with seven daughters, but there is really no way out, and he has no choice but to go. It's not sincere, it's just using the prince!" the envoy said, "Once the situation takes a turn for the better, Ma Jian will definitely betray his promise." Our side is full of sincerity, and we are willing to divide the south into various states and counties equally with the prince. ”

"Verbally, anyone will. Ning Ze smiled, "At least I have a daughter-in-law, and I am quite satisfied." So far, you have not shown any sincerity to Lone. ”

"The prince wants sincerity, but it's not simple?" said the envoy, "Your Majesty has five daughters, except for the eldest princess and the second princess, all of whom are close in age to your crown prince. Whichever princess the prince likes, we will be able to send someone immediately. In addition, the prince can make any request, as long as he can do it, I will do my best, this kind of sincerity is definitely more than Ma Jian!"

"Hmm~ Sounds reasonable. Ning Ze nodded, "It's better to be like this, the envoy recommends one or two to Lone, which princess is the most suitable to be Lone's daughter-in-law." ”

"From the courtier's point of view, the fourth princess is beautiful, gentle and virtuous, and is definitely more suitable than this Miss Ma!"

"How old is the fourth princess?"

"Lord Wang, after your birthday next month, you will be 7 years old!"

"......" Ning Ze heard this, with a speechless expression, "Seven years old, how can you see that you are beautiful and gentle?"

"The foreign minister does not dare to deceive the prince," said the messenger, "and if the prince does not believe him, he can wait here." The foreign minister will return to the imperial city, ask His Majesty for his will, and escort the fourth princess here! When the time comes, he will see it in person, and he will know that there is no deception!"

"Okay! ”

"Thank you, Lord Wang!"

Seeing off the envoy, Dewey came out and asked, "Brother, why did you agree to the other party? Do you really want to recruit another room for Xiu'er?"

Ning Ze said with a smile: "Sima Fa is just trying to delay, and Lu Cong will not really send his daughter like Ma Jian." After all, he has a different personality from Ma Jian. ”

"Since you know that Sima Fa deliberately delayed, you still agreed?"

"Because Lone didn't want to intervene too early, didn't you say it before, and you forgot?" Ning Ze smiled, "Just to get an excuse to make both of them feel the pressure." ”
