Three Caos fighting for a bride? Zhen Ji, I, Cao Zhi, will take her!

Inside Chang'an City.

At Ma Teng's house.

When Han Sui sent his confidant in the name of visiting.

When he was asked to see Ma Teng and his son.

Ma Teng discovered something was wrong.

The confidant just left.

Ma Teng immediately called his three trusted aides to his study.

These three people.

On the surface, he was a guard in Ma Teng's mansion.

In fact, it is Ma Teng who understands the outside world.

This is also normal.

People like Ma Teng.

Naturally, he would not give away all his wealth.

It all falls on the candidates.

In the study room.

Ma Teng looked at the three of them and said in a deep voice:

"Just now, the bastard Han Sui sent someone to look for my father and me, and he didn't even explain why!"

"I suspect something serious has happened in Chang'an. I'm going to send you three to investigate!"

"I will deliberately create a commotion in the mansion, and then the three of you will take advantage of the chaos to escape!"

"Here!"

Seeing that Ma Teng spoke so seriously, the three of them took the lead.

"Okay, if this is accomplished, we will be rich and prosperous together in the future!"

Seeing the three people nod, Ma Teng immediately made a promise.

After saying this.

Ma Teng poured a glass of wine for each of the three people in turn.

The three of them were overjoyed.

He quickly took the glass and drank it all.

Then leave Ma Teng's study.

……

After the three people left.

Ma Teng pulled out the sword from the room.

Go straight to the gate.

The door at this time.

They were surrounded by Han Sui's army.

See Ma Teng rushing out with a sword.

The guard at the gate was stunned.

And it was because of his distraction.

His neck had been cut by Ma Teng.

"Pfft!"

Scarlet blood.

Like a burst water pipe.

Ma Teng's face was instantly covered with tears.

This made Ma Teng's image at this moment very scary.

The other guards saw this.

He quickly raised the spear in his hand and pointed it at Ma Teng.

behind them.

More and more guards gathered around.

"General Ma, what do you mean?"

The leader of the group said in a deep voice.

This man was a captain under Han Sui.

He was ordered to lead a thousand men from his own army to surround Ma Teng's residence.

"What do you mean? Of course I have to get out. Anyone who stands in my way will die!"

Ma Teng said angrily.

After saying this, Ma Teng immediately rushed forward, waving his sword.

Soldiers along the way.

Because of Ma Teng's identity.

Don't dare to do anything to him.

Then, they were all killed by Ma Teng.

In the blink of an eye.

There were more than a dozen bodies left on the ground.

And the angry Ma Teng.

Finally, he was trapped by this group of soldiers with spears.

"Sir, what should we do with this man?"

The captain said to the left and right.

"This man is the lord's sworn brother. How to deal with him is not for us to decide. Force him into the mansion and close the door!"

"We will report the remaining matters to the Lord after the battle outside the city is resolved!"

The captain said.

"This……"

He saw Ma Teng kill his fellow comrades.

But nothing happened.

The surrounding soldiers all looked indignant.

"If you don't want to die, then obey my orders. Otherwise, when the lord blames you, I won't be able to protect you!"

The captain said angrily.

Now that things have come to this.

The group of soldiers immediately returned to their original posts in shame.

……

Half an hour later.

In Ma Teng's study.

He watched the three confidants who were kneeling in front of him come and go.

Ma Teng nodded with satisfaction.

"My lord, just now on the city wall, the three of us saw it from afar!"

"Han Sui led all the cavalry out of the city and they all dismounted and surrendered to the imperial army!"

"Then, we saw a group of Qiang people kneeling down and surrendering to the imperial army!"

"When we wanted to take a closer look, patrolling soldiers came over from the city wall. We had no choice but to leave..."

The three men told Ma Teng everything they saw and heard on the city wall.

As for Ma Teng, after hearing this.

I was completely stunned.

Did Han Sui surrender directly to the imperial army?

Are you sure this is something Han Sui would do?

If he wanted to surrender, why would he collude with 300,000 Qiang people?

Ma Teng expressed the doubts in his mind.

"It's like this. When Han Sui's soldiers fell to their knees, I saw two bodies at the front of their ranks. Judging by their attire, they looked like Han Sui and Hou Xuan!"

Someone else hurriedly said.

Although he has good eyesight.

But because the distance was too far, I couldn't see it clearly.

That’s why I didn’t tell Ma Teng.

At this moment, under Ma Teng's questioning.

Then he hurriedly said.

"So that's it!"

After knowing the news.

Ma Teng suddenly realized.

The thought of Han Sui dying like this makes me sad.

Ma Teng felt a sense of loss and disappointment in his heart.

This is my sworn brother.

He should have died as a result of his own planning!

Although Han Sui died.

Ma Teng was only sad for a while.

After all, he had given orders to the candidate before.

Let him find an opportunity to get rid of Han Sui.

Although there are some twists and turns in the process now.

But the result is always good.

But! ! !

Why did the Qiang people surrender to the imperial army?

Since the early Han Dynasty.

Between the Han army and the Qiang people.

Countless wars have taken place.

The reason.

This is because the Qiang people were unwilling to accept the rule of the Han Dynasty.

The Han court was very keen on spreading the kingly way of education among the Qiang people.

Hence the war between the Han and Qiang peoples.

It lasted intermittently for more than a hundred years.

During this period.

The Qiang people paid countless lives.

But even so.

This group of Qiang people still refused to accept the result.

Build up a little strength.

Just look for opportunities to rebel.

Then came the bloody suppression.

The reason why Ma Teng was able to thrive among the Qiang people.

Apart from the fact that Ma Teng was originally ruthless.

A more important reason is.

Ma Teng's mother was a Qiang.

Relying on his mixed Han and Qiang blood identity.

Only then did Ma Teng establish prestige among the Qiang people.

It stands to reason.

What a big man.

Except for Ma Teng and his children.

The Qiang people should not submit to anyone.

Why now?

Just surrender to the imperial army?

"Could it be Cao Zhi? Yes, it must be him. Only he has such a method!"

"You bastard, you damned bastard!"

The thought that Cao Zhi had ruined his plan.

Ma Teng was furious.

These 300,000 Qiang people.

It is Ma Teng’s last trump card.

It was the confidence of Ma Teng and Cao Zhi in the negotiations.

Now, his trump card is gone.

This means that my future is gone.

With his current identity as a "prisoner".

Even Cao Zhi was magnanimous and forgave himself, giving him a high position and generous salary.

What you can finally get.

It's not a trivial and sinecure either.

And this is obviously not what Ma Teng wants!

Because of anger.

Ma Teng first transformed himself into a desktop cleaning master.

All the bamboo slips, tea cups and other items on the table were swept away.

Afterwards, he took out a number of rare calligraphy and paintings, precious porcelain and other items from the study.

Tear it up and smash it down.

It won’t take long.

Those treasures worth thousands of gold left outside.

All of them were restored to factory settings by Ma Teng.

After doing all this.

Only then did Ma Teng stop.

But the violent heaving of his chest proved it.

The anger in his heart has not dissipated yet.

"brush!"

Ma Teng pulled out the sword hanging on the screen.

Looking at the three people in front of him, he said coldly:

"What do you think we should do next?"

"This……"

The three didn't dare to answer.

"Say!"

Ma Teng said coldly.

"I feel... now that the situation is settled, we... we should obey the will of heaven and surrender to the imperial court!"

A confidant closest to Ma Teng said tremblingly.

"brush!"

Ma Teng pierced the man's chest with a sword and said coldly:

"I, Ma Teng, don't believe in destiny!"
