Three Kingdoms: Madam, I am a decent person

Chapter 658: The first young talent is Yan Xing
Ma Chao, Ma Dai and Pang De were all surprised to hear Zhang Sui say this.

It seemed that the man in front of him was not angry because they had ambushed and killed three thousand elite soldiers!
In addition, after fighting with Zhang Sui just now, the three of them were unable to defeat him.

The three of them all had a much better impression of Zhang Sui.

He is a man with a broad mind!

Ma Chao raised his glass and toasted Zhang Sui, saying, "It is an honor to drink with the general!"

Seeing Ma Chao like this, Ma Dai and Pang De put aside their grudges and raised their wine cups.

After the four of them drank a cup, Zhang Sui smiled and said to Ma Chao, Ma Dai and Pang De: "You three are truly young heroes."

"Just now, I almost couldn't resist it."

"I've heard before that among the princes in Guanzhong, your names are mentioned, and only Yan Xing can suppress you."

"I don't quite believe it."

"Now it seems to be true."

Ma Chao, Ma Dai and Pang De were originally quite happy.

When Ma Chao heard Zhang Sui mention "Yan Xing" at this moment, his face fell.

Yan Xing was the son-in-law of Han Sui, the sworn brother of his father Ma Teng.

In his early years, when he was still young, Yan Xing almost killed him.

In the past few years, Ma Chao has repeatedly tried to find opportunities to take revenge, but was stopped by his father Ma Teng.

Since it was his father's order, Ma Chao endured it.

But at this moment, even the general thought that Yan Xing was more powerful than himself.

Ma Dai saw Ma Chao's face fall, and hurriedly comforted him, "Brother, don't worry about it."

“There’s just no chance now.”

"If you two really start fighting, Yan Xing won't be your opponent."

Zhang Sui asked knowingly: "Oh? Is there something else going on?"

When Ma Dai saw Zhang Sui asking this, he did not doubt it, but said: "My brother was young in his early years and did lose to Yan Xing."

"But this is one time, that is another time."

"My brother is no longer the same as he was before."

After a pause, Ma Dai asked again: "Where did the general hear the news that Yan Xing could surpass my brother?"

Zhang Sui filled several people's wine cups with wine.

Although the three of them were a little embarrassed and tried to decline, Zhang Sui still filled the glasses and said with a smile, "You three may not know that Cao Sikong and I are actually father-in-law and son-in-law."

"Cao Xian, the eldest daughter of Cao Sikong, is my wife."

"Just marry me for a year or two."

"Before, when we were chatting, we talked about heroes in the world."

Zhang Sui lied without blushing, "I've only heard of Ma Chao, the eldest son of Ma Teng from Guanzhong, when I was talking about young heroes in the world today."

"He is famous at a young age and is known as the Little Lu Bu."

A look of pride appeared on Ma Chao's face.

Zhang Sui glanced at Ma Chao's somewhat suppressed expression and laughed secretly.

After all, Ma Chao was still too young at this time.

Moreover, as Ma Teng's eldest son, he had extraordinary martial arts skills and rarely suffered any hardship.

So I am a little proud and complacent.

This is exactly the point that can be exploited.

Zhang Sui continued, "However, my wife said otherwise. The number one young hero is Yan Xing. This was acknowledged by his father, Cao Sikong."

"According to my wife, Cao Sikong and your father and others came to this conclusion after chatting together."

Ma Chao: "."

Zhang Sui scratched the side of his face, as if he was thinking.

Ma Dai and Pang De both looked at Ma Chao with some concern.

The smile on Ma Chao's face disappeared, replaced by gloom.

However, he did not speak, but just looked at Zhang Sui quietly. Zhang Sui seemed to remember after a while and said, "It seems that when your father and his family arrived in Xudu together, my wife had not yet married me."

"Prince Cao said this when he and your father were having a grand banquet in the palace and talking about heroes all over the world."

Zhang Sui seemed to have just noticed Ma Chao's gloomy expression, and hurriedly smiled and said, "Of course, this may just be a polite remark."

"After all, I heard that Han Sui sent Yan Xing to accompany your father to Xudu this time."

"You didn't go, and Yan Xing was by your side. Your father was just giving Yan Xing face."

"correct--"

Zhang Sui seemed to have thought of something. While pinching the cake and putting it into his mouth, he asked Ma Chao: "Meng Qi, you should be there too. Don't you know?"

"I heard from my wife that your father's legitimate sons were all present."

"You are in charge of your father's Ma family army and are the most valued by your father. How could your father not take you to Xudu to see the world?"

When Ma Dai heard what Zhang Sui said, his face suddenly changed.

This is the eternal pain in the heart of his cousin Ma Chao.

Since childhood, my cousin Ma Chao has always been a stain that my uncle could not erase because he was born to a woman of low status when my uncle was poor.

Especially when my uncle became one of the greatest princes in Guanzhong, married a real lady from a noble family, and had several sons, his attitude towards my cousin Ma Chao became worse and worse.

Every time he saw his cousin Ma Chao, he felt like he had seen poison and tried to avoid him.

Fortunately, in recent years, my cousin Ma Chao has been gifted in martial arts, far surpassing his peers.

There are even some small combat strategies.

My uncle then gradually brought his brother Ma Chao to work under him.

Last time, my uncle followed the advice of the Inspector of the Imperial Capital, Zhong Yao, and entered the court to serve as an official. He took several of his legitimate cousins ​​with him, but left his half-cousin, Ma Chao, alone to lead the troops and station in Huaili.

In order to prevent his cousin Ma Chao from causing trouble, he even arranged Pang De to be his deputy general.

On the surface, it is an assistant.

In fact, it is surveillance.

Pang De is a close confidant promoted by my uncle.

Because of this, my cousin Ma Chao has been depressed.

Fortunately, no one dared to mention this matter, so my cousin Ma Chao was never in trouble.

Who knows, the general will bring it up again today!
Ma Dai hurriedly said to Ma Chao: "Brother, don't worry about it. Uncle is willing to let you lead the Ma family army, which shows that he cares about you."

He then raised the wine cup and said to Zhang Sui respectfully, "General, this is a family matter. Let's drink!"

Zhang Sui shut up tactfully, returned the toast, drank the wine, and then asked Ma Chao: "Has Mengqi ever been to Xudu?"

Ma Chao was still angry and ignored him.

Pang De on the side said: "The young master has to lead the Ma family army and stationed in Huaili, so there is no chance to go."

Zhang Sui smiled and said, "That's a pity."

"I can't go to Xudu because of my status."

"My wife said that Xudu, as the new capital, is more prosperous than Luoyang."

“This is a wonderful place that all men yearn for.”

"There are even brothels that collect beautiful women from all over the world."

"Mengqi, you must go and take a look."

"You've worked so hard that you couldn't follow your father to Xudu."

"Huai Li is a camp after all, and it is in the Guanzhong area. It can't even compare to ordinary cities in the Central Plains."

Zhang Sui grabbed a handful of dry cold meat from the table in front of him, and chewed it with a frown, sighing, "Leading an army out here is not a life for human beings."

"I am rich and prosperous in Yecheng, this is wonderful."

"I have several sons. The oldest one is already several years old and he keeps talking about going to the battlefield."

Zhang Sui joked, "When they grow up, they won't be able to sleep outdoors. They are all my sons."

"Pity the hearts of parents in the world."

"Which parent would be willing to let their child suffer this kind of hardship?"
