Chapter 88: Geng Bi's Conspiracy

As soon as he heard the name of Ma, Ma Teng's face changed slightly, but he immediately covered it up and said with a smile: "There is indeed a son under Teng's knee, called 'Ma'. However, now in the northwest, wars are everywhere, and many traitors pretend to be Han soldiers and horses to confuse the public. I'm afraid they will be trapped!"

After Ma Teng explained this, Zang Ba, who was sitting on Ma Teng's left, was a little unhappy: A month ago, he was almost killed. Now that I have found the murderer, I am still lying to pay the debt! At that moment, Zang Ba suddenly stood up and was about to refute, Guan Yan raised his hand to stop Zang Ba from speaking.

Guan Yan looked at Ma Teng and smiled: "So that's it. It seems that Yan was negligent. Lord Ma is really far-scheming!" As he said that, Guan Yanruo looked at Ma Teng meaningfully, bowed slightly, and deliberately emphasized the four words "foresaying".

After hearing this, Ma Teng laughed dryly, stood up and fisted and said, "Guan Polu is too good. If nothing else, Teng will say goodbye first!"

"Then Lord Ma will walk slowly! I'm not far away to see you!" Guan Yan replied with his fists.

"Goodbye!" Ma Teng bowed, then turned around and walked out of the tent with great strides.

Looking at Ma Teng's figure gradually fading away, he took a step forward and said softly: "Do you lord suspect that Ma Teng and Han Sui colluded?"

Guan Yan nodded, but then shook his head and said, "Ma Teng's ancestor, Ma Yuan, is the founding general under Emperor Guangwu. How could Ma Teng destroy his ancestor's foundation? Ma Teng rescued Han Sui, probably just for a brotherhood!"

"Brotherhood?" Everyone around them couldn't help but be surprised.

Ma Teng is now just a small army Sima. He has not yet made a name for himself. Who would carefully examine his background?

But Guan Yan, who came from later generations, knew about these things.

Guan Yan looked at the reaction of everyone and smiled and said, "Han Sui and Ma Teng are brothers. In the battle of Jincheng, Ma Teng must have known that Han Sui was defeated and fled, so he sent his son Ma to respond."

"Then why don't you tell Geng Bi? Catch Ma Teng!" Zhou Cang stood up and said in a gull.

Guan Yan smiled bitterly and shook his head without making a sound, which made the people around him unaware of this.

Chen Deng thought for a moment, chuckled, looked at Zhou Cang and said, "Old Zhou, don't be impulsive, Deng thought the lord had already developed a love for talent!"

"Ah!" Zhou Cang stared at Guan Yan and said, "Lord, that Ma Teng seems to be a person who has been living under someone for a long time!"

"Hahaha~~~" Xi Zhicai laughed and said, "I didn't expect General Zhou would look at people and observe things!"

Zhou Cang's old face turned red, like a bear, and hurriedly bowed: "The military advisor laughed, he laughed."

Xi Zhicai did not continue to tease Zhou Cang, but said seriously: "What General Zhou said is not bad, Ma Teng is really not a person! It's just that the lord is not trying to recruit Ma Teng."

"Who is that?" Zhou Cang looked at Xi Zhicai with confusion.

At this time, Chen Deng turned out to be the topic: "What the lord thinks in his heart must be the Xiliang 'Broken Horse'!"

This sentence surprised everyone present even more, especially Zang Ba, who almost died under the rifle, had a complicated expression.

Guan Yan glanced at everyone and said, "You must be thinking in your heart: General Zang was seriously injured and was under the horse's spear. I, Guan Yan, don't want to avenge him, and I, still want to recruit horses. This really makes the generals disappointed, right?"

Zang Ba, Ji Ling, and Zhou Cang didn't say anything, but from their expressions, they were also looking forward to Guan Yan's answer.

Guan Yan lowered his head slightly, put his hands behind his back, and said in a deep voice: "The ancestor Guan Zhong, who had served as the Prince Jiu, shot and killed Duke Huan to seize the throne of Qi. The arrow was buckled, and Duke Huan was able to escape. If you talk about hatred, is the hatred between Duke Huan and his ancestors deep?"

Guan Yan frowned and looked around everyone, and everyone frowned and thought hard when they heard this.

At this time, Guan Yan suddenly raised his tone and said loudly: "However, after Duke Huan ascended the throne, he was recommended by Bao Shuya, and appointed his ancestor as prime minister, and used his talents to achieve hegemony in the Spring and Autumn Period! If Duke Huan killed his ancestor because of his hatred, can you know the great cause of Qi?"

Everyone was still silent and said nothing.

Guan Yan took a few steps and came to Zang Ba again, and said sincerely: "Can Xuan Gao be willing to be Bao Shuya, with the heart of Guan Yan Huan Gong?"

After hearing Guan Yan's words, Zang Ba felt ashamed. Zang Ba clasped his fists at Guan Yan and replied firmly: "Lord, I will know my mistake!"

After saying that, Zang Ba wanted to kneel down and admit his mistake.

Guan Yan dragged Zang Ba's arms steadily and said, "Xuan Gao, don't do this!"

He helped Zang Ba up, Guan Yan patted Zang Ba on the shoulder, walked back to everyone and looked at everyone and said, "If you want to accomplish a great thing, you should recruit talents from all directions! Guan loves talents, but he is not a righteous person. Yan Ming is in love with you. Come on, today I use tea instead of wine, and my brothers have this cup!"

"Dry!" Everyone raised the tea bowl in their hands and drank it all. The bitter tea was scented by everyone in the tent, and the aftertaste was endless!

Inside the Liangzhou Army Camp.

On the right side of the handsome tent is hung a map of Liangzhou made of solid cowhide. A middle-aged man in Confucian uniform is holding an oil lamp, squinting his eyes and observing the details on the map carefully.

The index finger of the right hand slowly rubbed the map as the oil lamp moved.

"Yes, that's it!" The Confucian man knocked his right hand hard on the map, and his brows gradually stretched out and said loudly: "Come here, call Fu Xie here!"

"Here!" A neat answer came from outside the tent.

After a while, the curtain of the handsome tent was lifted, and a man from 10 to 30 years old entered calmly. He was eight feet tall and proud. Even though it was late at night, his official uniform was still neatly dressed and meticulous.

This is exactly what the Confucian man said!

Fu Xie bowed deeply to the Confucian man and said, "Hanyang Prefect Fu Xie greeted Geng!"

It turns out that this Confucian man was Geng Bi, the governor of Liangzhou!

Geng Bi raised his right hand and said, "Premier Fu, don't be too polite, please sit down!"

"Thank you, sir!" Fu Xie stood up and walked to the side to sit upright.

Geng Bi put down the oil lamp in his hand, walked back to the main seat and sat down and said, "I am the governor summoning Nanrong to come, and there is something to discuss."

Nan Rong is Fu Xie's prose, but Fu Xie still answered very seriously: "I dare not, please speak, the governor!"

"Come on." Geng Bi waved his hand, raised the oil lamp and came to the cowhide map, and said to Fu Xie who was following him: "Nan Rong, I want to advance from now on!" As he said that, Geng Bi's index finger pointed at a black dot on the map, and there were two small characters written next to the black dot: Didao!

Fu Xie frowned, stroked the beard under his jaw, thought for a moment, and said, "Mr. Governor, Didao is the capital of Longxi County. Han Sui's troops are five or sixteen!"

Fu Xie's words mean that Didao has strong military strength, so it is better to make a steadily move.

But Geng Bi was excited when he heard this and said loudly: "I am about to raise all the elite troops and go 500 miles to attack Didao!"
