Chapter 342

Yicheng County, Majia!

Last time Liu Bei led his army to attack Yicheng County, led by Ma Jia, and organized a large number of troops to resist.

During the war, Ma's private soldiers also suffered heavy losses.

It's just that the Ma family has paid so much. After Liu Xiu stabilized Xiangyang, he didn't say anything, which made some people in the Ma family feel that Liu Xiu was unfair.

In the hall, patriarch March sits directly above.

Below, are the principal of the Ma family, as well as the person in charge of each branch.

"Master, although Bo Chang was appointed as the commander of the second army, it's just Bo Chang alone. What's good for our Ma family? It is reasonable to say that this time the Ma family has paid so much, Liu Xiu should at least give a certain reward. If it had not been for the Ma family, Yicheng County would have already fallen. "

"I also agree with Mathieu's view that at least one or two talents of the Ma family should be recruited as officials. Not to mention being as powerful as Bo Chang, it's OK to be at least a county magistrate. "

"Look at the Kuai family. What did they give? Kuai Liang is now an official, and he is engaged in governing China, which can be said to be in a high position. The Kuai family gained such respect without doing anything. But what about us? We've killed and wounded thousands of private soldiers, and we've taken out countless grain and weapons, but now we've got nothing. "

"Master, we really need to rely on Liu Xiu, but not on others. In the long run, how can the Ma family go further? "

The debate in the hall is one after another.

Everyone is not willing to pay for this war.

The family spent so much power, but they didn't even get a copper coin. Naturally, it's uncomfortable.

March's eyes were cold, and he said: "a group of self righteous people, you just want to grab benefits, but you forget the fate of the Cai family? If you offend Liu Jingzhou, you should be clear about the consequences. "

In a word, there was a silence in the hall.

After a while, people in the hall began to shout, saying that Liu Xiu could not deal with the Ma family without rebellion.

At this time, at the end of the right side of the hall, a young man named Qi Yuxuan stood up. He is over eighteen years old, with a pair of sword eyebrows on his temples, bright eyes, a slight smile on his lips.

This young man is Ma su.

Compared with Ma BoChang, Ma Zhongchang and others, Ma Su's mouth is sharp and tricky.

As soon as he stood up and looked at the elders in the hall, he said in a loud voice, "you uncles are so good at talking. Why don't you go to Xiangyang in person and ask Liu Jingzhou for an explanation."

"I'd like to see if you uncles can be so clever in front of your father and Liu Jingzhou. Hum, what is fighting in a den? If you have the ability, let Liu Jingzhou take the initiative to recruit you. That's the ability. "

"If you want to rely on others, what kind of person do you really think you are?"

"Today's Liu Jingzhou, if you want to curry favor with Liu Bei, you can't do it. You think it's great to resist Liu Bei."

"If there is no Ma family, there will be other families to resist. The third brother served as a military adviser under Liu Jingzhou, which was the banner of the family. And the third brother is now the second army's military division, once Liu Jingzhou further. I'm afraid the third brother's official position will be higher. "

"You are clamouring now. Once the third brother's future is ruined and the future of the Ma family is affected, you are the culprits of the Ma family."

Ma Su's speech was extremely sharp. After that, all the people who were shouting just now were silent.

Looking at Ma Su one by one, they were very upset, but they had to be convinced. Don't be directed against me.

suddenly has humanity: "you horse is so powerful, you have the ability to give us your talent, so that Liu Jingzhou also value you. There are two people in the Ma family who are respected by Liu Jingzhou. Naturally, we have nothing to say. "

"Yes, yes, it is. If you have the ability, Ma Su will be a good official

"You have a tricky mouth. You only know how to aim at us. You have the ability to go to Liu Xiu and make him believe you."

One after another, all of them were aimed at Ma su.

March's eyes were sharp and cold. When he was in charge of the family, he always wanted peace and unity. I didn't expect that these people would advance an inch. It seems that it's time to straighten out. "

"Newspaper!"

All of a sudden, a servant came in quickly, with exaggerated expression.

Seeing this, the people in the hall said, "master, I'm discussing something important now. Any servant will come in to disturb me. It's too loose for the owner to manage the house. "

Ma Qi hums a way: "old man governs a family, own discretion, don't bother you to worry."

With that, March asked, "what's the matter?"

The attendant said immediately, "master, Liu Jingzhou's soldiers have come to deliver a message, and they will arrive at the gate soon."

Brush!

In the hall, everyone looked shocked.

Look at each other one by one, and suddenly there is a feeling of being beaten in the face. Just now I was still talking about Liu Xiu. Liu Xiu is here now. For a moment, they all looked at March.March got up straight away and said, "come on, follow me to meet you."

"No!"

People no longer dare to haw, they all got up and walked out behind March. With a smile on his face, Ma Su said to himself that Liu Jingzhou had a wonderful time. Even if he came to see it, it would be a great honor for the Ma family.

A group of people waiting at the door, not long, Liu Xiu has arrived on horseback.

Liu Xiu turned over and dismounted. March immediately welcomed him and said, "Yicheng March, meet Zhou mu."

"Ma Gong, please get up quickly. Please forgive me for the trouble."

Liu Xiu's polite words are even more flattering to Ma Qi, and all the members of the Ma family are silent. At this time, the atmosphere is simply not dare to go out.

March waved his hand and said, "Liu Jingzhou, please."

Liu Xiu nodded and went to the mansion, followed by Pang Tong, Wei Yan, Deng Zhan and others.

In the hall, the guest and host are seated.

With a bright smile on his face, Ma Qi said: "Liu Jingzhou can come to Ma's house, which really makes Ma's house shine."

Liu Xiu said with a smile, "Ma Gong, you are too polite."

But Ma Qi didn't dare to be a bit casual. He was still serious: "Ji Chang works under Liu Jingzhou. I don't know what happened to Ji Chang now? This boy is sometimes angry, busy and impulsive. If it's inappropriate, please forgive me. "

Liu Xiu said with a smile: "Ma Gong, you are always so modest. Ji Chang and I have known each other for a long time. We have never found anything impulsive and rash about Ji Chang. On the contrary, we are calm and generous, which is quite good. "

When March heard the speech, a smile appeared on his face.

Liu Xiu changed his words and said, "this time I come to visit Ma Gong, on the one hand, I want to thank the Ma family for their efforts in resisting Liu Bei's attack; on the other hand, I want to ask for Ma Gong."

"Ask Liu Jingzhou to show him that he will not refuse as long as Ma Jiali can reach him," he asked

Before Liu Xiu have opinions, at this time in the heart is also a big pimple. To resist Liu Bei, the Ma family paid a great price, but Liu Xiu took it with him in a word. Now he still asks for the Ma family. It's too uncomfortable.

Liu Xiuse said: "I heard that among Ma's Wuchang, Youchang is very talented and proficient in military affairs. So this time I'm here, I hope Ma Su can become an official. "

In an instant, the person who had a knot in his heart before suddenly widened his eyes.

Let Ma Su be an official!

It's incredible.

For a time, one by one in the heart of the pimple disappeared, but the heart is sour. Because the man who became an official is March's son, which is very uncomfortable. But Liu Xiu let Ma Su become an official, which can also be understood as compensation for the Ma family. Obviously, Liu Xiu did not forget the Ma family.

Ma Su stood up, went to the hall, bowed his hand to Liu Xiu, and said, "I'll get off Ma Su and meet Zhou mu. I just don't know what official position I'm going to take when I become an official? "

However, Ma Qi hears Ma Su's voice. As the saying goes, a son is better than a father. He knows that this evil son must be thinking that if his official position is small, he will not become an official.

"Ma often scolded:" still back

Liu Xiu waved his hand and said, "Ma Gong, you don't have to. When you have questions, you have to answer them. " He looked at Ma Su and said, "your position is that of the Fourth Army. At present, the chief General of the Fourth Army is Tai Shici, stationed in Jiangxia county and Qichun county. If you want to become an official, you can go straight to Qichun county. "

"The Fourth Army's Division!"

Ma Su's eyes were full of excitement. He didn't expect that he was such a big official.

At this time, the rest of the Ma family in the hall was even more shocked.

This, this The strength of reward is too great. It's directly the division of the first army.

Today's Ma family, or the five sons of Ma Qi, actually has two sons as the first army's military adviser. This is the only one in Xiangyang or Jingzhou. It's shocking.

Liu Xiu asked, "how did you think about it, young Chang?"

Ma Su took a deep breath, arched his hand and said, "I'm going to dismount Ma Su and meet my Lord."

When Liu Xiu heard the speech, he had a smile on his face. With the participation of Ma Su, the Fourth Army will be improved, and through the military experience, Ma Su can grow up quickly.
