Dragon of the Three Kingdoms

This made Ma Teng both happy and worried.

In Xiliang, Ma Teng's strength is considered the strongest, and he even broke wrists with Li Jue. Although he lost several times, Ma Teng was still able to stay in Sili. It can be seen that Ma Teng is not a good match for Li Jue. with.

However, comparing Ma Teng with Li Yi is not enough at all.

Li Yi started his career in vain and swept across the Central Plains. How many romantic figures became his stepping stones. In terms of fame and strength, which one of those people is far better than Ma Teng?

When he first learned that Li Yi sent an envoy, Ma Teng's first feeling was that he was overwhelmed. He was so honored that I, Ma Teng, could be able to let Li Xianghou send an envoy on purpose.

But after the joy, Ma Teng fell into deep worry.

Li Yi, Jiaolong also.

But what is he, Ma Teng, at best is a wolfhound in the wild.

What will happen when the wolf dog meets the dragon?

The cooperation is based on the equal or similar strength of the two parties, and he is so far behind Li Yi, so if Li Yi contacts him, it is very likely that Li Yi wants to absorb his strength.

Ma Teng is not a staunch person. On the contrary, he is very knowledgeable about current affairs. If Li Yi has thoughts about him, it is not impossible to bow his head and give in under the circumstances of the disparity in strength.

But the problem is that the distance between the two sides is too far. Li Yi took people to Suanzao for a trip and then returned to Xiangyang. He had no intention of going west at all. , or if Li Jue and Guo Si have any ideas, that would be dangerous.

The more Ma Teng thought about it, the more he felt that Lu Su was not kind. As for the fact that Li Yimu was actually his son and daughter, normal people would not think of this.

Therefore, although Ma Teng was smiling, he had already started to prepare in his heart. In case Lu Su made any unreasonable demands, how should he politely refuse without offending Li Yi.

The two sides came and went, toasting in turn. Lu Su felt that the atmosphere was almost over, and clinked glasses with Ma Teng again. After drinking it all, he slowly put down the empty glass.

When everyone saw this scene, although they still needed to eat and drink, their eyes all quietly fell on Lu Su, knowing that the main show was coming.

Lu Su smiled and took out a gift list from his bosom, handed it to Ma Teng with both hands, and said with a smile: "My lord has long wanted to make friends with the general, but the journey is far away and there is no chance, so I can't meet the general. I think it is a pity, and it is precisely because of this that Su will travel to the northwest this time, and my lord has personally prepared a small gift for the general, and I ask the general not to refuse."

"Hey, the general is too polite, Ma is really ashamed."

While being polite, Ma Teng reached out to take the gift slip, and then opened it, only to see that the boxy gift slip had only one page, and there were only a few lines of small characters written on it, but Ma Teng blinked repeatedly, afraid that he might read it wrong .

After a while, Ma Teng let out a breath, closed the gift list slowly, and looked at Lu Su fixedly, seemingly shocked and puzzled, but he didn't speak for a long time.

Ma Chao, who was next to him, felt curious, thought for a while, and took a gift list from Ma Teng's hand to look at it, only to see that the gift from Li Yi was only the same, blank paper!

But this amount is very inferior, it is a full eight thousand catties!

Ma Chao can be called Jin Ma Chao, but he is actually a master who can spend money, and he knows the value of these blank papers most clearly.

The situation in the Central Plains was chaotic before, and the coins were becoming worthless day by day. Li Yi's white paper was sold outside, mostly in the form of barter, in exchange for food or iron ingots and war horses needed for the battle, and some were sold directly for money, just the price It's a bit scary, one catty of paper is exchanged for one ingot of gold.

Even with such a high price, the supply of paper in Xiangyang is still in short supply. If it is far away from Xiangyang, the price will increase even more. The [-] catties of paper that Li Yi sent is definitely worth more than [-] catties.

Subconsciously, Ma Chao tightened his grip on the gift slip, as if the gift slip in his hand was a thousand pieces of gold, but soon he came to his senses, the heavier the gift Li Yi gave, the bigger the conspiracy. up.

However, even though it was hot, Ma Chao didn't let go when Ma Xiu next to him wanted to take a look.

After a while, Ma Teng smiled unnaturally, and finally said: "This... how can someone Ma dare to accept such a generous gift from the general? Ma is really terrified, please ask Lu The chief secretary told the general that if the general ordered, Ma would obey, but these gifts, Ma is really ashamed to accept."

Ma Teng said it very politely, as if he was willing to sacrifice his life for Li Yi if he didn't want anything, but he was actually retreating to advance.

It is true that Li Yi is very powerful, and he has knocked down many people along the way, but Li Yi's actions are basically reasonable, especially as his position is getting higher and higher, he naturally has to be more scruples about face,

Therefore, Ma Teng thought that instead of fighting, he should take the initiative to give in. Even if Li Yi didn't care about his strength, for the sake of influence, he shouldn't let him do anything too embarrassing.

Hearing this, Ma Chao looked at his father, and then at Lu Su. He didn't think Li Yi was too malicious at first, but he was just being courteous for nothing, which made him feel a little shaken.

Ma Teng's cautiousness was slightly beyond Lu Su's expectation, but he was not in a hurry, he held Ma Teng's arm who was about to return the gift list, and said, "My lord does have one thing to ask the general, and... "

Lu Su pretended to be mysterious and smiled, causing Ma Teng's nerves to go far away, and then said: "And only the general can help my Lord achieve what he wants, so please don't refuse, the general."

At this moment, Ma Teng couldn't even maintain a smirk, because hearing Lu Su's tone, Li Yi's plot was obviously not as big as usual, and he really didn't have a clue in his heart.

Seeing that the atmosphere of the banquet was getting tense and no one was in the mood to drink anymore, Ma Teng felt that it was a knife anyway, and asked through gritted teeth: "Please tell the truth, Master Lu, what is the general asking for?"

Lu Su coughed lightly, his eyes were a little strange, then he breathed out, and said seriously: "My Lord has his own supernatural powers, and he can know the fate of people and distinguish talents from thousands of miles away. I've heard of it."

Ma Teng nodded slightly, but said nothing.

Li Yi's ability has been rumored to be amazing, and Ma Teng doesn't know whether it is true or not. He is only half-believing in his heart, but half-belief is enough to make him awed.

Lu Su continued: "After my lord's victory over Yuan Tan in Qingzhou, I wanted to return directly to Jingzhou in the south, but I felt something in my heart. I sat in meditation for three days, sympathized with heaven and man, and then divination, it is calculated that my lord still has another marriage in the northwest. Therefore, my lord led the team to go west, but they searched for Suanzao all the way, but there was still no trace of the person who hit it, so my lord made another divination."

At this time, Ma Teng's face was very exciting, not only him, but also the other people present also looked weird.

With Li Yi's big handwriting, Ma Teng began to think about Li Yi and asked him to raid Luoyang to kill the emperor, but after a long time, it turned out that Li Yi's old problem happened again?

Ma Teng was barely calm, but Ma Chao was young, unstable, and the huge gap between the front and the back made him blurt out: "Could it be that the general's marriage is my sister?"

Lu Su chuckled, looked at Ma Chao with a powerful look, and said approvingly, "Meng Qi is right. After my lord's divination that day, I found that the person in the divination was the beloved daughter of General Ma. Originally, my lord planned to come to the Northwest in person, to visit the door to ask for marriage, to show his solemnity, but he has been away from Xiangyang for a long time, and everything is busy, so he has no choice but to prepare a small gift, and Su and Zhongkang will visit the door on his behalf. For the sake of the Lord’s sincerity, this matter can be accomplished.”

After finishing speaking, Lu Su got up and gave Ma Teng a deep bow, with an extremely sincere attitude.

Chapter 742

Although there were already some guesses just now, when Lu Su explained that this trip was really for a marriage proposal, everyone still couldn't help but feel a little dazed.

Because the two sides are far apart, there was no intersection at all before. This is the first time they deal with each other and it is a marriage proposal, which is really too abrupt.

but.

Although it was abrupt, Ma Chao, Ma Xiu and the other brothers were filled with ecstasy.

Girls will marry sooner or later. These days, they only want to be in the same family, and there is no concept of free love. Therefore, if there is no accident, the daughter of the Ma family will have only a few choices in the future.

Marry to win over subordinates, marry and ally with forces with similar strength, and choose those who are more powerful than the Ma family to help the Ma family find backers.

The former two have no choice for the time being, and the Ma family has never thought about the latter. It's not that they are reluctant to part with Ma Yunlu, but that the Ma family who can climb up to others look down on them, and those who can stand up to them can't climb up.

For example, Li Yi, the Ma family admired this golden thigh, but they didn't dare to climb it at all.

However, things are often so unexpected. Before the Ma family had time to climb the dragon and the phoenix, Li Yi took the initiative to find him. This opportunity is not too good.

Although Li Yi already had a regular wife, Ma Yunlu could only be a concubine when he married in the past. Naturally, it would not be possible for the Ma family to be an ordinary person, but Li Yi's thighs are really too thick.

As for whether Ma Yunlu will be wronged...

Ma Chao and others never thought about it. In terms of personal conditions, who can compare with Li Yi in this world?

Moreover, Li Yi has no children yet. Ma Yunlu is not only beautiful, but also can ride a horse, can draw a bow, and has a great body. If she gives Li Yi a son first, then the mother is more expensive than the son, and the Ma family treats her as an aunt You can offer anything.

Thinking of this, Ma Chao couldn't hold back any longer, leaned forward slightly, and almost answered the matter directly for Ma Teng, but after a while, Ma Teng had an inexplicable expression all the time, not agreeing, especially saying Disagree, people don't know what he is thinking.
