The Reincarnation of Lu Bu at the End of the Han Dynasty

Chapter 702 Guess what Ma Chao said

Half a month later, Sun Ce, who came from Jiangdong, arrived in Chang'an.

Looking at the three big characters of "Chang'an City" engraved on the stone above the city gate, a strong sense of vicissitudes rushed towards me.

"Brother, is this Chang'an?"

A bright-eyed little boy held his elder brother's hand, tilted his head and asked curiously, his eyebrows were somewhat similar to Sun Ce's.

On the other side of Sun Ce, there was a six or seven-year-old girl with a cute and innocent face.

Sun Ce gave a slight 'hmm' and said firmly, "That's right, this is Chang'an, the capital of the Han Dynasty!"

In fact, this is also Sun Ce's first visit to Chang'an.

For Chang'an City, Sun Ce felt a little awe in his heart, "The Son of Heaven is a real dragon, entrenched here, so the upper hand of Chang'an City has the air of a real dragon."

"Why didn't I see it?" The little boy raised his head so hard that it was almost on the back of his neck, but he still couldn't see the so-called 'Heavenly Spirit'.

Sun Ce dotingly raised the back of his brother's head, and explained with a smile: "I'm a mortal with naked eyes, so I can't see it."

The little boy gave an 'oh', as if he was a little disappointed that he couldn't witness it with his own eyes.

After looking outside the city for a while, Sun Ce led the two little guys into the city, followed by more than ten trusted guards.

The city of Chang'an is bustling with pedestrians, which makes people feel dizzy. At the same time, you can occasionally see guards with knives on patrol.

"Wow, there are so many people in Chang'an City, much more than the people in our county town when we went to the market!" The little boy opened his mouth wide, and made exaggerated gestures with his two little hands.

"If we didn't have a large population in Wu County, we wouldn't be the capital of Chang'an." Sun Ce couldn't help laughing.

A strong man with a tiger's back came forward and whispered: "My lord, last year there were rumors all over the place that there was a severe drought in Guanzhong, and it is very likely that it will not be able to sustain it and cause a large-scale riot. We will see you today." , I didn't expect it to be so peaceful, it seems that those previous statements are indeed rumors."

His surname is Zhou, his name is Tai, and his style name is Youping. He is from Xiacai, Jiujiang, and he is known for his courage.When Sun Ce was in chaos in Jiangdong, he joined Sun Ce's army with Jiang Qin from the same county, and followed Sun Ce.

Sun Ce shook his head slightly, "It shouldn't be a rumor. After all, there were droughts in various places last year, but the severity was different. I don't know what method Da Sima used to suppress the drought and save so many people in Guanzhong."

Because of the Jiangdong rebellion, intelligence information was also greatly hindered.

"Are you guys from other places?" Hearing Sun Ce's discussion here by chance, a man passing by carrying rough logs stopped.

Sun Ce nodded, wanting to hear what advice this guy has.

The man took a breath, and recalled sadly: "Last year, our Guanzhong area was really miserable! Dead bodies were everywhere, and many people couldn't survive. Even I almost became a bandit. Fortunately, at the critical moment, Da Sima appeared. He opened a storehouse for relief, and set up a platform to pray for rain. It is said that in order to protect us lowly commoners, he offended all the old men of the aristocratic families."

"Isn't it? If Da Sima hadn't shown his power, those aristocratic masters would have been able to transport the grain to Guanzhong by truckload?" At this time, another person broke into the topic.

"There is also the wife of Da Sima's family, that is the heart of a living Bodhisattva! First, she used her own food reserves to help us, and then opened a charity hall in the city. Anyone who is sick, no matter how serious or minor, can help us." If you go there for free diagnosis and treatment, and don’t charge people a penny, tell me, is this a living Bodhisattva!”

Among them, the favored man raised his voice, and his honest words were full of gratitude.

"Whoever dares to speak ill of Da Sima and his wife, I, Li Tieniu, will be the first to say no!"

"That's right, I don't agree!"

Gradually, more and more people came to talk nonsense. Judging from their tone, they were all people who had been rescued by Lu Bu.

Sun Ce didn't want to delay here, so he quickly left with his brother and sister, but he was full of admiration in his heart.

As expected of the protagonist he identified, he was able to turn the tide, and had such a high prestige among the people, and won the hearts of the people.

Sun Ce inquired about the whereabouts of Da Sima's Mansion. Zhou Tai was a little puzzled: "My lord, shouldn't we wait at the posthouse? Why are we going to Da Sima's Mansion?"

Sun Ce replied to this: "I did not come to Beijing to make a pilgrimage, but only to meet Da Sima. What's more, there are so many people in the posthouse, and it is inevitable that some gossip will be spread to slander Da Sima's reputation."

"We are ignorant, not as far-sighted as our lord!" Zhou Tai and others were convinced.

At this time, in Da Sima's mansion, a martial arts competition was going on.

The guardian is Ma Chao, who just got married a few days ago. His father, Ma Teng, returned to Xiliang the day after Ma Chao got married. This is what Lu Bu meant.With Ma Teng's temper that is easy to offend, it is estimated that if he stays for a few more days, all the dignitaries in Chang'an City will be offended by him.

"It is a good thing for a person to be capable, but he must not be too arrogant, otherwise disaster will happen sooner or later."

This is Ma Teng's parting words from Lu Bu before he left.

At that time, Ma Teng just nodded and said 'I know', but he didn't know if he had heard it.

In just over half an hour, Ma Chao had already defeated Song Xian, Hou Cheng, Hu Che'er and many other generals in a row, and even the stronger Pan Feng and Xu Huang were also defeated one after another.

It has to be said that Xiao Mengqi, who they could still ravage a few years ago, has grown too fast, and has the potential to emerge suddenly.

But if you lose, you lose, and they are convinced.

Cao Xing was about to send reinforcements, he was the first to be defeated, and also the one who lasted the shortest time.

As a man, he can tolerate everything else, but the shortest is not enough!

Today Cao Xing is determined to suppress Ma Chao's aura, and he can't let this little guy be too arrogant.

When he walked to the gate, he happened to bump into Sun Ce who was about to come to see him.

Lu Bu went to the palace at this time, but was not in the mansion, Cao Xing rolled his eyes and said in his heart: Yes.

"Oh, isn't this Bofu brother? I heard that you have pacified half of the land in Jiangdong. It's really gratifying. I haven't seen you for a long time. You are becoming more and more heroic and powerful!"

Cao Xing pretended to be surprised, and went forward to boast fiercely.

Sun Ce couldn't help but feel a little elated. Young people like to hear good words of praise and praise, and Sun Ce is no exception.With a full smile on his face, he clasped his hands and said 'much praise', and then asked, "Where does General Cao want to go?"

Mentioning this, the expression on Cao Xing's face instantly became extremely bitter, and he said helplessly: "Where else can I go, go and rescue the soldiers."

"Why did General Cao say that? Could it be that something happened in Da Sima's mansion?" Sun Ce was startled.

Cao Xing shook his head, "It's not that something happened, it's just that a young general named Ma Chao came back from Xiliang to quell the rebellion, and no one can beat him. So others said, among the young generation, only Ma Chao is the number one." I was very unconvinced when I heard it, and I said that if I want to talk about the first, it should be Jiangdong Sun Bofu, but in the end, guess what Ma Chao said?"
