Two days later, the wind and snow have stopped, at the north gate of the capital, the team is arrayed, headed by the tall horse is Liu Gongzi, left and right Zhao Pingyuan, Zhao Pingguang guards, he looks ahead, as if waiting for someone to come.

"Childe, you said that this horse fair will not be a fake refuge? After all, he has been in contact with that Lu Jianfei, and the death of Mr. Zhanqun may not be inseparable from him, why is the emperor willing to accept him?" Zhao Pingguang was puzzled.

"In today's situation, it is better to have one more person to support than one person to oppose it. Officialdom is no better than martial arts factional struggles, there is never an eternal enemy, and vice versa. Liu Gongzi said lightly, he saw these thoroughly.

"Childe, it's better to be cautious and beware of fraud. Zhao Pingyuan kindly reminded.

"The more you put on a posture of being ready for battle, the more you will only run away from your allies. On the other hand, if you are honest with others, they will be moved, and that is the strategy. Although he said so, Liu Gongzi was not afraid that Ma Bo would suddenly regret attacking the city, because he had already prepared for both hands, but on the surface, he wanted to be more beautiful.

"Childe, obviously said that the time was good, why didn't he come over. Zhao Pingguang was in a hurry.

"Sooner or later, the one who came will come, and you are patient, and you are not in a hurry for this moment. Liu Gongzi stroked the horse's mane gently, and the corner of his eye was still paying attention to the surrounding movements.

After about half a pillar of incense kung fu, Zhao Pingyuan was the first to discover something, he pointed ahead, and said loudly: "Childe, look at it!"

"Well, they should be here. Plains, you lead the army to suppress the formation, and you are ordered to go down and treat each other with courtesy, and there must be no mistake. ”

"Yes, Childe!"

"Pingguang, you follow me and fight forward. ”

"Yes. ”

The three of them acted separately.

More than 40,000 soldiers led by Ma Bo marched towards the north gate of the capital, he took the lead, majestic, so many years, he was the first time to be so imposing. Yang Hu saw it in his eyes and smiled in his heart: Even if you can get rid of the hard days at the border now, after so many years in the north, it is your turn to enjoy the blessings. Niu Lao is a brainless guy, but fortunately, Ma Bo can control him, otherwise he will almost mess up the plan.

Niu Lao is in the rear army array at the moment, he has a lot of emotions, he has always adhered to the heart of loyalty and patriotism, and has never thought of betraying the emperor, and now the situation is compelling, he has no choice, if he is stabbed to death by Ma Bo because of this, he feels very worthless.

"General Ma. Liu Gongzi bowed his hand and shouted loudly.

"Ah, polite, polite. Ma Bo saw that the person not far in front of him was talented and personable, and he guessed that this person was Liu Gongzi, but for a while, it was not easy to call up the title in a hurry, so he had to salute like this.

When Liu Gongzi and Zhao Pingguang approached, Ma Bo also stepped forward on his mount and said: "This must be the son of the emperor today, but he will be the prince in the future, haha, I will still need to rely on the prince to take care of it." ”

"Eh, what did the general say, the general has been in the north for many years and has made many military exploits. The former Emperor Dog ignored the general's merits and did not sympathize with the hard work of the soldiers, so that the general suffered many grievances over the years. Now, keeping the moon open and seeing the moon, my father overthrew the tyranny, ruled the world, the general worked tirelessly, came from afar to help, and in the future, if the great things are accomplished, I will thank General Ma for his great kindness. Liu Gongzi's words made Ma Bo's heart bloom, and he liked others to praise him like this.

Ma Bohaha laughed and said: "I really didn't expect that in the eyes of the emperor, this general would be so important." With the words of the son, it is not in vain that I led the army to help, I don't know where the emperor is now?"

"My father is now in the palace, and because of the busy government and the government, he has no flawless withdrawal, so he sent me and some officials to meet the general. If there is any rudeness, please also ask General Haihan. ”

"Childe's words tormented me, in the future, I will shed blood for the emperor, and swear allegiance to the emperor. ”

"Okay, with the general's words, I believe that my father will be happy. ”

"Childe, you see that I have a lot of more than 40,000 people, can this capital land be accommodated?" Ma Bo's words were ostensibly asking, but he was actually testing the tone.

Liu Gongzi is such a smart person, even if he is younger than Ma Bo, where will he eat him, and said with a deliberate smile: "General Ma, my father has already arranged it." The troops led by General Ma were all stationed ten miles outside the north of the capital, and all the warm cotton clothes and grain and baggage were provided by the palace, so that the general could defend himself against the enemy with peace of mind and no worries. ”

Heh, you don't let Lao Tzu enter the capital! Liu Shichen, you old fox.

"What does Childe mean that Ma doesn't have to go to see the emperor?"

"Only General Ma can go alone. ”

Hearing this, Yang Hu couldn't help coughing, stepped forward on his horse, bowed his hand, and then said: "I've seen Gongzi, General Ma and I and other soldiers have been of the same heart for many years, we will be where the general is, how can there be a general who enters the city alone, leaving us people to camp outside? ”

Ma Bo naturally knew the meaning of Yang Hu's words, he was afraid that Liu Shichen would cheat and kill himself secretly after he tricked himself into the city, and in the end these more than 40,000 people and horses would fall into their hands.

"Who is this?" asked Liu Gongzi's eyes, with a hint of shrewdness.

"Oh, I forgot to introduce to Childe, this is the general's army, Yang Hu. ”

"It turned out that Yang joined the army, which was rude. Liu Gongzi also saluted, and then said: "General Ma, with a loyal and righteous person like Yang Shenjun, I think the combat power of our soldiers in the north must be amazing." It's safe to join the army, and listen to me. ”

"Childe showed down, and he should listen to him. ”

"In the past, the overlord of Chu invited Pei Gong to Hongmen for a banquet, just as the so-called "Xiang Zhuang sword dance is intended for Pei Gong", which can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye. But this time is different from the past, my father has just ascended the throne, the dynasty is unstable, the world is undecided, it is the need to employ people, General Ma rushed to help at this time, it is to send charcoal in the snow, there will be a lot of glory and wealth in the future, the official fiefdom is waiting for the general, where is there anything I am for the sword, you are for the fish and meat? ”

Ma Bo glanced at Yang Hu and motioned for him to reply, Yang Hu nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "Gongzi is too modest, you are erudite and talented, which makes Yang very impressed." As Gongzi said, Fang is undecided today, and I am also worried about the safety of the general and the brothers, so I said this, since Gongzi said so, Yang will rest assured, but everything still needs to be decided by the general. ”

"This is natural. Liu Gongzi said slowly.

Ma Bo deliberately delayed for a moment before saying: "Since this is the emperor's will, I will obey it myself, and ask the prince to lead the way, I will now lead the army to camp and wait for the emperor's dispatch at any time." ”

"Okay, the general is really reasonable, you can rest assured, food, clothing, and some military money will be delivered within a few days. ”

"That's very good. Yang Hu, you go and call Niu Lao. ”

"Yes, General. ”

Liu Gongzi also sent Zhao Pingguang to guide the way, and then said to Ma Bo: "General, my father is sincere, and I also invite the general to enter the city for a while, I don't know if it is convenient for the general?"

"Since it was summoned by the emperor, I naturally want to go, but the camp is not stable, I don't know if I can give a grace day, and tomorrow I will personally attack the face saint, what do you think?"

"Okay, I'll send someone to stay here, and tomorrow he will bring the general into the palace, I don't know what to do?"

"Haha, this is naturally good, just don't be rude like that person last time. ”

Liu Gongzi heard that the person he said was Zhanqun, and he didn't care, but just smiled and said: "The general is relieved, he only waits at the north city gate, and does not enter the general's tent." ”

"That's the best, that's the best. As he spoke, Ma Bo also laughed, but said in his heart: You don't dare to give this general a banquet, hmph, use each other first, and then take what you need, but that's it.

"General, please!" Liu Gongzi beckoned.

"Childe, please go back first, Dai Ben will greet the emperor first. ”

"Definitely. ”......
