Cao Mao was originally handsome and heroic, and he was dressed in a silver sky pan dragon armor, which made him look heroic.

Coupled with the fact that she has lived in a high position for a long time and has an extraordinary bearing, she looks like a dragon and a phoenix among people!
Although Ma Chao and Ma Yunlu are proud brothers and sisters, they can't help feeling close.

Seeing Cao Mao getting closer, Ma Chao winked at his younger brother Ma Dai.

The latter nodded knowingly and coughed lightly.

Hearing the sound of "shua", the sergeants lined up on both sides of the road suddenly raised their knives and axes in unison, and set them in mid-air!
If Cao Mao and others wanted to enter Chang'an City, they would have to pass under the swords and axes in the hands of these sergeants.

And looking at those blades and axes that were shining with a cold light, it seemed that they might fall down at any time!
If the knife and ax fell when Cao Mao passed by, he might be killed on the spot.

"My lord, these people from barbarian lands are simply too unruly!"

Zhou Cang was angry and furious, and was about to attack, but was stopped by Cao Mao.

"Don't be impulsive!"

Cao Mao said in a low voice.

"Then do we really have to pass under those knives and axes?"

Zhou Cang said angrily,

"If Ma Teng, Han Sui and the others have evil intentions, then we will die without understanding."

Cao Mao smiled calmly,
"Be safe and don't be impatient. If Ma Teng and Han Sui really want to kill me, they can do it directly. Why bother? It must be just a show of authority!"

Zhou Cang thought about it.

I also think what Cao Mao said makes sense.

They came from afar, and there were only 20 of them in total.

If people from Xiliang wanted to kill Cao Mao, they could have directly sent an army to do it.

Instead of posing like this.

Cao Mao's face was indifferent, and he rode the golden lin slowly, passing under the cold light of the knife and axe.

Even though those blades and axes passed by, his expression did not fluctuate in the slightest!

Zhou Cang, Cao Da and others naturally followed closely behind.

After Cao Mao and his party passed by, the swords and axes in the hands of the soldiers did not fall.

Zhou Cang finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But Cao Mao secretly sneered.

Ma'er, you are so bold, you dare to show me off!
It seems that you don't know what happened to the Sima family and Liu Biao!

He remained calm on the surface, and went straight to Ma Chao!

Seeing Cao Mao and his party passing through the formation of swords and axes calmly, Ma Chao's eyes showed a touch of appreciation.

It seems that this Cao Mao is also a courageous person!
Ma Chao rode forward, cupped his hands and said with a smile,
"Master Su Lie has come from afar, and it has really made Chang'an City full of splendor!"

"My father and General An Qiang have set up a banquet in the mansion and are waiting for your son's arrival."

Cao Mao was the prefect of Hanoi County and the son of the prime minister.

Ma Teng and Han Sui didn't even bother to show their faces, which shows their contempt!
But Cao Mao is the one who can't hold his breath.

He just smiled lightly, nodded and said,
"So good!"

Ma Chao pulled the reins, turned the horse's head, and led the way ahead.

When Ma Yunlu passed by Cao Mao, he couldn't help looking at Cao Mao carefully.

Cao Mao smiled at her, showing his white teeth.

Ma Yunlu's pretty face flushed for a moment, and his heart was pounding like a deer.

She secretly thought in her heart, he is quite handsome, if he is willing to join my Ma family, it is not that he has to consider it.

In fact, it's no wonder that Ma Yunlu is an idiot.

She grew up in Xiliang since childhood.

This is the frontier of the Han Dynasty, the climate is harsh, and the people have suffered from the wind and the sun.

Therefore, most of the men Ma Yunlu can come into contact with are rough and rough men.

The only one who can be called a good-looking talent is her brother Ma Chao!

Everyone headed towards the city together, until outside Ma Teng's mansion, two burly generals in armor came out of the mansion.

"Young Master Su Li!"

The two bowed to Cao Mao.

Cao Mao also got off his horse and cupped his hands.

"Su Lie has met General Andi and General An Qiang!"

Ma Teng said with a smile,
"My lord, please come in quickly."

A group of people entered the mansion.

Just as Cao Mao was about to enter the banquet hall, Ma Chao on the side smiled lightly and said,

"Young Master Su Lie, we arranged a banquet in the side hall, and your followers must be tired too, why don't you let them go there to rest."

Hearing this, Zhou Cang's face suddenly became vigilant, and he tightly grasped the Tianlong Breaking City Halberd in his hand, ready to throw it at Cao Mao at any time.

And Yanyun eighteen riders also put their hands on the scimitar around their waists!

The originally harmonious atmosphere suddenly became tense!

Ma Teng and Ma Chao were still smiling, as if they didn't see Zhou Cang and others' actions.

Cao Mao took a fixed look at Ma Chao, and suddenly chuckled,
"In that case, Cao Da, you go to the side hall to rest."

"Here!"

Cao Da and others followed the servants of Ma Mansion and walked towards the side hall.

Only then did the atmosphere ease down.

Ma Teng glanced at Zhou Cang and said with a smile,

"This strong man..."

"I am the lord's bodyguard, I don't need to rest!"

With a rough voice, Zhou Cang directly rejected Ma Teng.

Ma Teng frowned slightly, then stretched his brows, with a bit of cunning in his eyes, he smiled lightly,

"Since a strong man doesn't want to rest, it doesn't matter."

"It's just that in my house now, no one will be able to hurt the young master. You might as well hand over the weapon for the time being and let the servants keep it."

Zhou Cang looked at Cao Mao who was on the side.

But Cao Mao nodded slightly.

Only then did he reluctantly hand over the Tianlong Breaking City Halberd and his own weapons to the servants of the Ma Mansion.

Looking at Ma Teng's gaze, which fell on the Xuanyuan Sword at his waist again, Cao Mao said indifferently,

"This is my personal sword. Does the general want me to hand it over?"

Ma Teng thought to himself, he had only heard that Cao Mao had defeated countless heroes in the world with his Heavenly Dragon Breaking Halberd.

However, I have never heard that he has any attainments in swordsmanship.

Since he has surrendered his long halberd today, why not leave him with a long sword?

Immediately said with a smile,
"It's okay, it's okay, let's go in."

Everyone entered the banquet hall and sat down separately.

Ma Teng gave an order, and groups of servants brought all kinds of delicacies to everyone.

"Chang'an lives far away in the frontier, so it is naturally not as rich as the Central Plains. If the hospitality is not good, I hope you will forgive me."

Han Sui greeted with a smile.

Cao Mao picked up the wine glass on the case table and took a sip, but it turned out to be Moutai invented by himself.

He raised his head and looked at Ma Teng and Han Sui, but he was too lazy to go around in circles and said directly,
"Today I came to Chang'an for the matter of Mi Zhu and Mi Fang. I wonder why the two generals arrested the Mi family brothers?"

Except for Zhou Cang who was guarding behind Cao Mao, everyone else was slightly taken aback.

Cao Mao was so straight to the point, but they were somewhat unexpected.

Ma Teng collected himself, and said with a smile according to what he had said beforehand,
"Salt and iron are under the dictatorship of the imperial court. The Mi family brothers sold salt privately and violated the law. That's why they were all arrested."
