Zhang Zhao had a loud voice and was excited. After these words, the people in the water pavilion could hear clearly. Many people rushed over and congratulated Sun Ce. Sun Ce smiled and socialized, drank several cups in a row, with a slightly red face, which looked a little excited.

"Then... what marriage law is the emperor planning?" Sun Ce leaned on the case, holding his chin with one hand and knocking on the other hand, his eyes blurred.

Seeing this scene, Ma Ri fell half of his heart in his throat. At least Sun Ce did not refuse, and he seemed to be a little yearning. This is understandable. The Sun family father and son were from poor martial arts. The most criticized one of the family was a low-ranking family. Now, by chance, in a chaotic world, he was in a troubled world, and with powerful force, Sun Jian became the guard of one of the nine ministers, and he was also the general of cycling and cavalry. In the future, he defeated Yuan Shao and became the general. The general of cycling and cavalry will reach the top. Sun Ce was still young and rich, but once the war ended, whether he could become a general of cycling and cavalry. Now that he had the opportunity to marry the royal family, Sun Jian could become a general, and the prime minister of the dynasty. In the future, Sun Ce succeeded him, and father and son were one after another. He could take charge of the government for 40 or 50 years. Why not do it?

"The emperor has never met Junhou's family and cannot be easily decided, so this matter was not written in the edict, but just asked me to discuss with Junhou and his son. If it works, I will be considered a matchmaker and I will receive a gift in the future."

Ma Ri made a joke and laughed out loud first. Zhang Zhao and others also followed him with enthusiasm and said good-looking words. Sun Ce also smiled brightly, and there was no sign of anything unusual. When Ma Ri finished laughing, Sun Ce asked, "Now Ma Gong has seen it now, why do you think the marriage is more suitable?"

"Don't you object?"

"Why should I object?" Sun Ce spread his hands. "Mr. Zhang just said it well. This is the emperor's trust in my father and son, and it is also a rare opportunity for our Sun family. Why should we object?"

After Sun Ce's personal confirmation, Ma Ri was completely relieved. He stroked his beard and looked at Sun Shangying and others. "I still need to ask for an imperial edict on how to handle it. However, there are only two ways to marry into the palace: either your sister marry into the palace, or your brother Princess Shang. Which way does the lord think is the best?"

"Everything is good." Sun Ce blurted out. Before Ma Ri had time to be happy, he continued: "My sister entered the palace, is she the queen?"

"This is naturally. If it were concubines and nobles, why would it take so much trouble to mobilize so many people?"

"Ma Gong, Zhang Gong, I heard that the emperor's betrothal gift for marrying the queen was very generous, and the gold alone cost 20,000 kilograms. The emperor moved to Xijing and could not even pay the salary of all officials. Is there so much money?"

Ma Ri's smile suddenly became very awkward. The emperor couldn't even take out 20,000 kilograms of gold, not to mention 20,000 kilograms of gold. Sun Ce still asked about this question even though he knew the situation. Was he wronged or refused politely? The emperor wanted a betrothal gift when he got married, and the princess wanted a dowry even when she got married. Although she was less, she still couldn't take it out.

Seeing that Ma Ri didn't say anything, his face looked ugly. Sun Ce slapped his head and laughed at himself. "Don't be anxious, don't be anxious. Whether it's the emperor or the princess, they are all far away in Chang'an, just discuss it slowly."

"Yes, yes." Ma Ri walked down the donkey and laughed dryly in cooperation.

After the banquet, Sun Ce asked Ma Chao to send Ma Ri back to his residence and went to the military planning office with Guo Jia. The military affairs were busy these two days, and new news would come when they had dinner, and they almost never left. If Ma Ri had not had a special status, they would not have been willing to spend this time at all.

They had known for their long time that Sun Ce's response was also from Guo Jia's suggestion and had prepared a response plan. When he thought of Ma Ri's expression, Sun Ce wanted to laugh. This was a typical scholar and was not suitable for being an envoy. He should go to Xiangyang to write books with Cai Yong. No wonder he was locked up in history by Yuan Shu, and he was so depressed that he died of depression.

"General, have you noticed the entourage behind Ma Gong?"

"I saw it, but I didn't pay much attention. What kind of character is this?"

"Maybe he is a minister." Guo Jia shook the feather fan and pondered, as if he wanted to say something, but he was not sure.

Sun Ce found it strange. According to the current customs, it is normal to ask the birthday and horoscope during blind dates, or ask the minister to calculate it, or directly ask the minister to come forward, so it will not cause Guo Jia to hesitate so much. "Is there any problem with this minister?"

"I can't say it. It's reasonable to ask the minister to take a look, but it's wrong for him to stare at you. Judging from the content of the edict, the court does want to form an alliance with the general. It is impossible to send someone with problems, and it will not arrange for you, Princess Shang, to create internal discord."

Sun Ce was surprised. He saw the man, but he really didn't notice that the man had once stared at him. "He stared at me?"

"Although he saw it secretly, I'm very sure. I just can't figure out why he stared at you. Does the emperor want you to Princess Shang and then follow the imperial system to make you unemployed? This is too natural."

Sun Ce couldn't understand, but he didn't care. Who should take the imperial system seriously? If you let me be unemployed, I will be unemployed?

While speaking, the two entered the water pavilion of the military plan. As soon as they entered the door, Zhuge Liang came up. "General, there is new news. Yuan Shao divided his troops. Yi and Xun Yan led 20,000 infantrymen and 2,000 elite cavalry, and had arrived in Kaifeng, Junyi South."

"Divide the troops?" Sun Ce and Guo Jia were both surprised, looked at each other, accelerated their pace, and walked towards the first-floor lobby.

Ma Ri entered the room and stopped. The waiter Liu Wan followed in and covered the door. Just as Ma Ri was about to speak, Liu Wan raised her palm, pointed to her ear, pointed to the wall, looked in the room, checked it again, and then went out to check it again before entering the door again.

Ma Ri thought he was a little bit of a big deal. "Is there any problem?"

"No, but General Sun's detailed work is very powerful, and he is prepared for any trouble."

"What did you find, so cautious?"

Liu Wan put his hands in his sleeves and frowned. "Ma Gong, the Sun brothers and sisters' faces are a little weird, especially Sun Bofu."

"Strange? What a strange method?"

"Specifically, my Taoism is too shallow to see clearly. But I have a feeling that someone has prayed for them."

Ma Ri became a little impatient. "What exactly do you want to say?"

Liu Wan gritted her teeth. "Someone helped them change their lives. When Junyi saw Sun Cheqi, I felt this way. Now I see the Sun brother and sister, I am almost sure."

Ma Ri's eyes also became solemn and he was silent for a while. "Is this a living god Yu Ji?"

"have no idea."

"What does that mean?"

"This means that for the court, Sun Bofu may be more dangerous than Yuan Benchu."

Ma Ri's white eyebrows raised. He stared at Liu Wan tightly. "Zhongyan, do you know what impact your judgment will have?"

Liu Wan smiled bitterly. "Ma Gong, I am also a member of the Liu clan. I know that it is not easy for Your Majesty to make this decision. For the sake of caution, please ask the court to send everyone else to come and have a test again."

Ma Ri was silent for a while and sighed. "It is necessary to be careful when it comes to the survival of the country."
