Chapter 71 Fighting for Beauties
Naturally, Ma Yin didn't want a good girl like Xinglan to be ruined by a scum like Qin Zongyan. Ma Yin looked at Xinglan and saw that she was looking at him with full of affection and expectation. Ma Yin really couldn't bear it.
Disappointing her, he said to Liu Jianfeng: "General Liu, you are kind to Ma Yin. If General Liu gives any orders, Ma Yin will go through fire and water without hesitation. There are two difficulties in this matter, and Ma Yin needs to explain it in advance."
Liu Jianfeng said: "Brother Ma, you and I are not outsiders. If you have anything to say, please say it directly." Ma Yin said: "I don't know what Miss Xinglan thinks about this matter. Ma Yin doesn't want to wrong her." Liu Jianfeng said: "This is simple.
, Third sister, my brother wants to betroth you to Ma Yin, what do you think?" Xinglan blushed, lowered her head shyly, and said softly: "Little sister, let the elder brother make the decision." Liu Jianfeng was overjoyed and said to Ma Yin.
: "Brother Ma, you heard it too. So what else is there to say?"
Ma Yin said: "General Liu, you also know that the young general was engaged to someone else. She is my savior, and I can't let her down." Liu Jianfeng laughed and said: "What a problem this is. A man has three wives and four wives."
Concubine is very common. I know you are talking about the little girl, but you don’t know where she is at the moment. My girl is very generous and will not care about it. But after all, my sister is older, so I will let her do it in the future.
Sister, just treat that girl as your sister. Why not let you enjoy the blessings of being together? Sister, what do you think? "
Xinglan had met Wenxiang once before and knew what Ma Yin was thinking. She was quite open-minded. After all, she could be with Ma Yin every day, and she didn't believe that she could not compete with a yellow-haired girl. As time went by, Ma Yin
Naturally, she will gradually forget about that little girl. Even if she does meet again in the future, her identity and status have already been determined, so there is nothing she can do. Besides, she still has her elder brother as her backer, how can she compete with her?
Therefore, Xinglan blushed and said nothing, acquiescing to the matter. Her idea was good, but how did she know that more than ten years later, it would be completely different.
Liu Jianfeng saw Xinglan lowering her head and said nothing, knowing that she had acquiesced, so he said to Ma Yin: "Brother Ma, do you have any more questions?" Ma Yin glanced at Xinglan and saw that she had no objection, so he said, "Since Liu
The general and the third lady don't mind, Ma Yin should obey his orders." Sun Ru immediately said: "Brother Ma, you should pay homage to the eldest brother. In the future, you should also change your name to eldest brother at home."
Ma Yin immediately understood and hurriedly bowed to Liu Jianfeng and said: "Little brother, meet the eldest brother." Liu Jianfeng stood up and helped him up, saying: "We are a family from now on, you are welcome. Go see the second brother." Ma Yin bowed to Liu Chengfeng again.
, said: "Little brother, meet the second brother!" Liu Chengfeng snorted, ignored Ma Yin, stood up and walked out. Liu Jianfeng was furious and shouted: "Second brother, what are you doing?" Liu Chengfeng said: "
You recognize this brother-in-law, but I don't." Liu Jianfeng's face turned red with anger. When he saw Ma Yin still kneeling on the ground in shock, he hurriedly stepped forward to help him up and said, "My second brother has a bad temper and is a rough man. Don't worry about it.
Come on." After Ma Yin got up, he said: "It's okay, brother, don't worry, Ma Yin won't care about it."
Sun Ru and others immediately congratulated Ma Yin, Xinglan and Liu Jianfeng. Xu Dexun said: "General Qin can go and repay King Xiang now. I'm sorry he can't say anything else." Qin Yanhui said: "Xu Sima Qi is better.
I'll go over and tell him." After Qin Yanhui finished speaking, he said goodbye to everyone and hurried away. Sun Ru said to Liu Jianfeng: "It's a pity that we are about to march south, so this marriage can only be kept simple." Liu Jianfeng said: "Ma Yin,
Xinglan, what do you mean?"
Xinglan looked at Ma Yin and said: "Little sister, listen to the big brother." Ma Yin said: "The marshal just said that we will go on an expedition in a few days. I think it is not too late to wait until the expedition comes back. In these few days
We all have military matters to deal with on the day after tomorrow. If it is too hasty and crude, it will really wrong the third lady." Liu Jianfeng thought for a while and felt that what Ma Yin said was reasonable. We will set off the day after tomorrow. There are indeed a lot of things.
I have to do it. Liu Jianfeng said: "That's fine. Anyway, the status has been decided, so there is no rush."
Sun Ru was originally worried that they would hold a wedding immediately, which would inevitably affect military affairs. However, he could not stop him and was secretly anxious. When he heard what they said, he felt relieved and said: "Two brothers take state affairs as the most important thing. Brother Yu,
I admire you so much. When you come back from the Southern Expedition, I will personally marry you." Ma Yin and Xinglan hurriedly bowed and thanked Sun Ru. Sun Ru laughed a few times, and then he and Xu Dexun said goodbye to Liu Jianfeng and Ma Yin.
After all, Xinglan belongs to the girl's family and has already gone to the backyard.
Ma Yin and Liu Jianfeng talked about military matters for a while, and then said goodbye to Liu Jianfeng. Liu Jianfeng said: "Brother, I'm a little worried about you. You'd better come over tomorrow. I'm afraid that Qin Zongyan won't give up." Ma Yin nodded in agreement.
Then he left the Liu Mansion and returned to his own army. As soon as Ma Yin returned to the army, Yao Yanzhang, Li Qiong, Wang Huan and others surrounded Ma Yin, first to congratulate him, and second to ask him to treat him.
Ma Yin asked strangely: "How do you know this?" Li Qiong spoke quickly and said first: "Brother Yao just met Xu Sima on the street, so he naturally knows everything. Brother, when are you going to get married? We are
Finally, I have a sister-in-law." Ma Yin said: "How can I have time to go to the church now? We will go to Huainan in three days, you'd better be prepared!" Tuoba Heng said
: "You don't have to worry about the preparations. As long as our brothers are here, we will definitely handle it properly. Just stay with your future sister-in-law with peace of mind. I think Qin Zongyan might go to the Liu Mansion to cause trouble. If you are not here, General Liu
It’s not easy to deal with.”
Li Qiong said: "In this case, our brothers will accompany the eldest brother to the Liu Mansion tomorrow. If Qin Zongyan still has evil thoughts about the eldest sister-in-law, I will not let him go!" Ma Yin sighed and said: "
I don't think Qin Zongyan will give up here. It's not a good thing that the girl is too beautiful." Wang Huan said with a smile: "Brother, you are getting an advantage and acting like a good boy. If you can marry such a beautiful woman, what else do you know?
Is that enough? If Qin Zongyan dares to cause trouble tomorrow, there is no need for the elder brother to intervene, the younger brother will send him away for you."
Ma Yin thought for a while and said: "I really want to ask Brother Wang to bring a few people to accompany me tomorrow. Li Qiong, your temper is too hot, so there is no need to go. Yan Zhang, Li Qiong, Ma Bin, Li
Tang and Tuoba brothers are preparing to go out in the army. If you really need your help, I will send someone back to inform you. Besides, there are many people in General Liu's house, so we don't need to go too many people." Everyone saw Ma Yin.
Having made up their mind, they all accepted the order and retreated.
Early the next morning, Ma Yin and Wang Huan came to the Liu Mansion with eight soldiers. Liu Jianfeng received the report and hurriedly invited Ma Yin and Wang Huan into the living room. Liu Jianfeng was about to speak when he heard loud gongs and drums and the sound of people outside.
The buzz was boiling. The guard at the door hurriedly walked in and reported: "General Qi, King Xiang personally led a team of people outside, carrying a big red sedan chair, and came to the door, claiming to be here to marry the third lady." Liu Jianfeng was suddenly shocked.
He stood up and said: "This Qin Zongyan is too deceitful. Brother, let's go out together to meet this shameless person!"
Liu Jianfeng took Ma Yin, Wang Huan and Liu Yong, the captain of his personal guard, and hurried to the door. Not far from the door, Qin Zongyan was dressed as a groom, riding a tall horse, and behind him was a big red hat carried by eight people.
The sedan chair. Liu Jianfeng frowned, his face darkened, he walked forward, cupped his hands towards Qin Zongyan, and said, "Prince Xiang, what do you mean?"
Qin Zongyan shouted: "Brother, please stop pretending to be confused for me. Where is your sister? Hurry up and send me to the sedan chair. I am still waiting to pay homage to her!" Liu Jianfeng said coldly: "Prince Xiang,
Please respect your identity. I never promised you that I would betroth my sister to you. My sister has already been betrothed to someone else, so please take her back, Your Majesty!"
Qin Zongyan snorted and said: "Liu Jianfeng, you are betrothed to someone else! It's just a stop-gap measure for you. Your brother Liu Chengfeng came to my house in person yesterday and told me everything. He has promised to betroth his sister to me, and now he
He is still waiting to preside over the wedding between me and his sister in my palace! You'd better send the little beauty to me quickly, otherwise don't blame me for turning against her."
It turned out that Liu Chengfeng was angry when he saw that Liu Jianfeng insisted on betrothing Xinglan to Ma Yin. After leaving the Liu Mansion, he thought for a while and went straight to the palace. Since Ma Yin was appreciated by Liu Jianfeng, he has made many military exploits, and in less than two years,
Years later, his position has surpassed that of Liu Chengfeng. He only wanted to stand out, but now he has lost more and more prestige in the army. However, his abilities are limited and he has no military exploits. Liu Jianfeng did a good job in this regard and is not the kind of nepotism.
generation, so Liu Chengfeng could not get promoted.
Unexpectedly, Xinglan was attracted by Qin Zongyan, so Liu Chengfeng naturally couldn't let go of this good opportunity. Liu Chengfeng immediately came to Prince Xiang's Mansion, asked to see Qin Zongyan, and told Qin Zongyan everything. Originally, Qin Zongyan hesitated under Qin Yanhui's persuasion.
Jue. He knew that if Sun Ru and Liu Jianfeng went to Qin Zongyan to complain, they might not be able to get a good deal. After all, they were both men with heavy troops, and Qin Zongquan would not offend Sun Ru and the others for a woman.
Although Qin Zongyan did not make any statement to Qin Yanhui, Qin Yanhui had already seen that his confidence was insufficient. Qin Yanhui did not force Qin Zongyan to agree at that time, knowing that once Qin Zongyan hesitated, it meant that he was ready to give up. Seeing that the matter had been successfully concluded, Qin Yanhui took his leave and left.
Qin Yanhui never expected that when he left the palace, Liu Chengfeng entered the palace. Liu Chengfeng not only told Qin Zongyan everything that everyone had discussed, but also betrothed her to Qin Zongyan in the name of Xinglan's second brother. Qin Zongyan was furious at first, and then
He was overjoyed. He had received Liu Chengfeng's marriage proposal, so he had every reason to welcome him. So early in the morning, he led his people straight to the Liu Mansion.
After hearing Qin Zongyan's words, Liu Jianfeng naturally hated Liu Chengfeng, but he had no time to care about him at this moment. Liu Jianfeng thought for a while and said: "Prince Xiang, Liu Chengfeng doesn't care. The elder brother is like father, and I am Liu.
The head of the family. My sister has been betrothed to Ma Yin at my discretion, so you should stop trying to make plans for my sister." Qin Zongyan shouted: "Liu Jianfeng, I don't care who is older or younger among you. If someone is engaged, I will
It’s time to welcome the bride. If you don’t send your sister out yet, I will have no choice but to ask my people to go in and invite her!”
When Liu Jianfeng heard this, he could no longer hold back the anger in his heart, and immediately shouted: "Qin Zongyan, don't bully others too much. I, Liu Jianfeng, am not scared! Come here!" Liu Jianfeng was also born in the army, and he had gone through hundreds of battles to win.
As a commander, he naturally has a temper. He had been swallowing his anger before, but he just wanted to make big things into small things, make small things into small things, and make peace with others. Now he sees things
The relationship is irreversible, so I have to prepare for a hard fight.
As soon as Ma Yin and others heard Liu Jianfeng's shout, they immediately responded in unison: "My subordinates are here!" Liu Jianfeng shouted: "Listen, if anyone dares to break into the general's residence, he will be killed!" Ma Yin and others responded in unison.
He said: "Old men, I obey!" Then with a clatter, everyone pulled out the swords from their waists, took their positions, and prepared to fight. Ma Yin held the sword in his hand, took a few steps forward, and stood side by side with Liu Jianfeng.
Liu Jianfeng suddenly became so tough, which was completely beyond Qin Zongyan's expectation. Seeing that Liu Jianfeng kept saying nice things, he thought that he would not dare to offend him. At this moment, seeing that the other party was prepared, Qin Zongyan couldn't help but hesitate, but if he was asked to retreat like this, then
How can he, the prince, show his face to others in the future? Qin Zongyan gritted his teeth and shouted to his subordinates: "Come here, kill all these rebellious officials and traitors!" Qin Zongyan's servants and guards also responded in unison: "Yes!
"They all drew their swords and rushed towards the gate of Liu's Mansion.
Seeing that the two sides were about to fight, at this critical moment, they suddenly heard a scream: "Stop!" Everyone was shocked. Xinglan, dressed in military uniform and carrying a sword, walked out of Liu's mansion, followed by a group of people in high-end costumes.
Liu Jianfeng said, "What are you doing out here? With eldest brother and Brother Ma here, these people can't even get in." Xinglan didn't answer, but came between Liu Jianfeng and Ma Yin and shouted to Qin Zongyan.
: "Prince Xiang, can you listen to the little girl say a few words first?"
When Qin Zongyan saw that the little beauty he had dreamed of came out, he waved his hand to stop the guards and servants, and said: "Little beauty, if you come out early and get on the sedan chair, everything will be fine, right? I am already in a hurry.
I can't wait to have a wedding with you!" Xinglan shouted: "Please respect yourself and stop saying these shameless and dirty words. My little girl is grateful for your favor, so I would like to express my gratitude here." After Xinglan finished speaking, she bowed and offered
After a salute, Qin Zongyan laughed a few times and said: "That's right, then get on the sedan, don't miss our good time!"
Xinglan said seriously: "Prince Xiang, the little girl came out not to get on your sedan chair, but to explain to you clearly. The little girl has already been betrothed to someone else by her elder brother, so she has no choice but to live up to the prince's good wishes in this life. The prince is still
Please go back and don't continue to be entangled here, so as not to hurt the harmony." Qin Zongyan snorted and said, "But I also have a marriage promise from your second brother. You must get on the sedan today, otherwise I will destroy your whole family!"
Xinglan's face darkened and she said: "In that case, the little girl has a simple way to solve this problem." Qin Zongyan sighed deliberately and said: "Look who made me fall in love with you, a little beauty. What you said,
Of course I want to listen. Tell me." Xinglan said, "My eldest brother betrothed me to Ma Yin, and my second brother betrothed me to you. But they don't know what I am thinking. I must
I want to marry a heroic man with strong martial arts skills. Now, if you and Ma Yin fight alone, I will marry whoever wins.
Of course, if you don't dare to challenge, then you are a coward and a loser. How can you expect this girl to marry such a person? If you must use force, then we have to fight hard. With all your money, you can't come here.
It’s just to die. Yesterday on the street, I was able to beat the crap out of you and the others. What’s more, there are three of us who are highly skilled in martial arts: my elder brother, Brother Ma, and Brother Wang!”
Qin Zongyan couldn't help being stunned after hearing this. He looked around and saw that many people were watching from a distance. Just now, Xinglan deliberately spoke loudly, obviously to let everyone hear. If he didn't dare to challenge, he would be a loser.
There was no way he could escape. But if he had to fight Ma Yin alone, he was not sure that he could beat Ma Yin. Ma Yin was highly skilled in martial arts and had repeatedly defeated powerful enemies on the battlefield. It was just because he had been in Jingnan.
If you fight, you won't see it with your own eyes.
But if he swarms up, I'm afraid the result will be the same as Xinglan said. He still knows how many pounds his men have. No one can beat Liu Xinglan except himself. Not only does he have a master like Ma Yin on the opposite side, but also
Liu Jianfeng is not a bad person. Since the other one is named Wang, he is probably Wang Huan who defeated Sun Ru. Once the two sides break up, even if he can escape with his life, I am afraid Liu Jianfeng will have only one way to rebel. Then Caizhou City will definitely be in chaos.
, once Qin Zongquan is blamed, it will be troublesome.
Qin Zongyan thought for a long time and had to say: "Do you mean what you say?"
Only in this way can you free your hands and show your true skills. Otherwise, you are a prince and he is just a small general, how can you go all out? Even if you win, I will not recognize it."
This was what Qin Zongyan was thinking about originally. He didn't dare to hurt Ma Yin. In this way, he would be invincible. Xinglan's words at this moment clearly saw through his intention, and she seemed to be convinced in her words.
He will undoubtedly lose. After all, Qin Zongyan is also a man, and he has been on the battlefield for a long time, so he still needs this face. If he refuses outright, he obviously thinks he is invincible and shows weakness. Qin Zongyan made up his mind and said: "The document will not last forever.
