Chapter 1648 It is not easy to live in Chang'an
Ma Chao's face was a little hot. The advantages and disadvantages of these two tactics were summarized by Yan Xing. Later, after discussion by Sun Ce and others, he was just a beauty that plundered people.
The emperor admired Ma Chao even more and immediately appointed Ma Chao as the son-in-law Duwei. The son-in-law Duwei was the follower of the emperor's travel, and was considered a confidant of the emperor. The rank was 2,000 stones, and it was a noble position. Ma Teng was very satisfied and ordered Ma Chao to thank him. The emperor immediately asked about Ma Chao's marriage. When he learned that Ma Chao was not married yet, the emperor intended to choose one from the royal family to marry him and asked Ma Teng's opinion. Ma Teng did not dare to agree easily, so he pushed him back and think about it. The emperor did not ask more and encouraged him a few more words.
Ma Teng immediately explained that he would send his daughter Ma Yunlu to get married, and emphasized that the five hundred war horses were dowry and not a deal with Sun Ce. The emperor had known that Pang De had stayed with Sun Ce for a long time. It was probably not a juncture with Sun Ce, but he probably would not have cut off contact with Sun Ce, but he did not expect Ma Teng would marry his daughter to Pang De. This was clearly a comparison with Han Sui's daughter marrying Yan Xing. He knew that he could not stop him, so he could only agree with the flow.
After saying goodbye to the emperor and leaving the palace, Ma Chao let out a long sigh and was proud. "Aweng, am I still doing it appropriately?"
Ma Teng rolled over the horse, walked forward lightly, pondering for a moment. "Meng Qi, what do you think of the emperor's proposal?"
"I think it's OK." Ma Chao scratched his head with some regret. "Aweng, the emperor is a hero. Why haven't you considered marrying Yunlu to the emperor? Isn't it better than the Hun girl Lu Xiaohuan?"
Ma Teng turned his head and looked at Ma Chao, sneered, "Just praised you a few words, you began to forget it. If Yunlu married the emperor, how would Han Wen ask for an explanation? Even if I have to discuss your marriage with him. Meng Qi, don't forget that our father and son are from a humble background. It is not easy to be in Chang'an, but it is not easy to go to Liangzhou. If you don't make an appointment with Han Wen, you will even be swallowed up sooner or later."
Ma Chao remembered his long-term plan and woke up in awe, and hurriedly bowed to take the order.
Lu Xiaohuan rushed to the gate of the Jinwu Officer, and suddenly strangled the reins of the horse. The war horse neighed, raised its front hooves high and stepped in the air. Lu Xiaohuan flew off the horse, threw the reins to the guards who were greeted by the sound, and rushed into the gate.
Lu Bu was sitting in the hall drinking and watching dance. He heard the neighing sound of horses outside and was about to get angry when he saw Lu Xiaohuan rushing in, and he suddenly turned angry and happy.
"Xiaohuan, why are you here?"
"I'm so angry." Lu Xiaohuan was angry and reached out to pull Lu Bu. "Aweng, come with me."
"Who bullied you?" Lu Bu was also angry, pushed the cup and followed Lu Xiaohuan out. "Tell Ahweng, Ahweng will help you vent your anger. It's really a rebellion. Now there are still people who dare to bully you? Tell me, who is it?"
Lu Xiaohuan stamped his feet and said, "Aweng, it's not bullying me, it's despising you."
"Don't look down on me?" Lu Bu was a little weak, stopped and touched the short beard under his jaw. "Which sour is said to me behind his back? Oh, just say it, they are jealous of me, don't pay attention to them."
"It's not sour Ding, it's Ma Chao, Ma Teng's son Ma Chao. He said riding and shooting is a skill to kill dragons, and he also mocked us as the Huns..." Lu Xiaohuan's face turned red and white, and roughly said Ma Chao's answer to the emperor. At that time, she was next door. When she heard Ma Chao say riding and shooting was insignificant, she could tolerate it. After all, she knew that except on the grassland, riding and shooting can play a very limited role, and it was no problem to say it was outdated tactics. When she heard Ma Chao say that this was Huo Qubing's tactic to defeat the Huns, she heard the meaning. It was clearly targeted by Lu Bu and the Bingzhou army.
She has learned a little bit of how scholars speak, obediently, not only what he said, but also what he wants to say. The two words "Chamber and Hun" and "Hun" are connected together, but aren't it just Lu Bu?
Lu Bu was furious, but he was not as impulsive as Lu Xiaohuan. After all, he was not Lu Xiaohuan, so he had to consider more. He carefully asked about Ma Chao's process of meeting the emperor and learned that the emperor appointed Ma Chao as the son-in-law and intended to select a woman from the royal family to marry Ma Chao. He pondered for a long time.
"Xiao Huan, you go back first, you can't be reckless in this matter."
Lu Xiaohuan was puzzled. Lu Bu pulled her back to the hall, and asked someone to redesign her food and drink, and patiently advised: "You are Your Majesty's woman. You must consider everything for Your Majesty. Only with Your Majesty can you and our Lu family. Do you want to destroy Your Majesty's deployment?"
Lu Xiaohuan rolled his eyes, but he didn't understand it. Lu Bu continued, "Think about it, why did Your Majesty win over Ma Chao so much and marry him?"
"I want the Ma family's support?"
"Yes. Huangfu Taiwei went to Tongguan. There were only so many people around Chang'an. In addition to the thousands of northern and southern armies of the imperial court, there were our Bingzhou army and Han Sui and Ma Teng's Liangzhou army. Han Sui and Ma Teng were originally summoned by Dong Zhuo. When Dong Zhuo died, they had no choice but to surrender to the court. Can the emperor believe them? But if he didn't believe it, he couldn't drive them back to Liangzhou. The Bingzhou army had limited military strength. If there was a conflict with Han Sui and Ma Teng, he would not be sure of winning. But if Ma Teng was pulled aside and only Han Sui was left, the situation would be different."
Lu Xiaohuan blinked his eyes and still refused to give up. "Then just endure it like this?"
"Don't be anxious, this tone is naturally about to come out, but people can't think that we were deliberately causing trouble for him. After all, he didn't say that I was a Hun." Lu Bu sneered: "Is he not the prince-in-law? If you have the chance to meet in the future, I will let him learn the dragon-slaying technique. Also, Xiao Huan, you are Your Majesty's woman now, you can't be so casual anymore, riding a horse on the street without even a maid, what does it look like? You have to be a little bit like a queen, be gentle, respectful, frugal..."
Before Lu Bu finished speaking, Lu Xiaohuan jumped up and looked at Lu Bu with contempt. "Aweng, look at you like this, you are so lingering. When Your Majesty saw me, even if I was riding a horse in Shanglinyuan, I would never become a gentle... Wenliang..."
Lu Bu reminded: "Gentle, kind, respectful, frugal and kind."
"I won't let me!" Lu Xiaohuan raised his hand. "Whoever wants to bully me, I will fight back. Don't expect me to let him go. Let me give you a chance. If you meet Sun Ce's sister, the third general, in the future, I will let her fail? Ah Weng, it's not that I said to you, don't learn those tarts, you can't learn them either. Have you forgotten that old man Wang Yun? You have to learn General Sun and see how others deal with these tarts."
After saying that, Lu Xiaohuan left. Lu Bu stared at him and opened his mouth. After a while, he realized and became angry. "Is this... still my daughter?"
Wei Xu, who was standing beside him, held back his smile. "General, Xiaohuan is still Xiaohuan, but you are not you."
Lu Bu's face turned mute.
