There was something going on in Luoyang here, and Ma Chao rushed back to Longxi non-stop, after all, there was still something for him to do in Longxi, so Ma Chao also knew that he had to go back quickly. And Ma Riyan didn't go back with him, because although Ma Riyan can also ride a horse, he doesn't have a BMW like Ma Chao, so he can only go back first, and Ma Riyan happens to arrange things here in Luoyang, but he will arrive later.

Ma Chao suddenly remembered that he had forgotten something, so when he passed through Maoling, he deliberately went to Mr. Cui's again. What are you doing, of course, I borrowed money from Mr. Cui, to say that Ma Chao's money is all in Mi Zhen's place, and he didn't care about Mi Zhen's money when he got married, so after buying a house in Maoling, Ma Chao really didn't have much money in his own hands.

And his mother had some, and she also took it out to buy a marriage for herself, but Ma Chao felt that it was not enough, so when he passed through Maoling this time, he deliberately went to Mr. Cui to borrow some money from him. What is called "a skinny camel is bigger than a horse", how many generations the Cui family has been in business, and the money is not comparable to ordinary people, so the money that Ma Chao borrowed from Mr. Cui is just a drop in the bucket for Cui Hong.

Ma Chao returned to Longxi, and Ma Chao's mother Liu had already bought him a new house to marry. Ma Chao also lamented that his mother still has some assets, although the price of the house in Longxi is not particularly high, but the cost of buying such a large one is not small. Fortunately, I borrowed a lot of property from Mr. Cui, otherwise it would be insufficient. Alas, it seems that no matter ancient or modern, this marriage costs money, Ma Chao thought in his heart.

In the past few days, Ma Chao has been preparing Nacai's gifts, which is the first of the six ceremonies, and the things prepared are not ordinary, so Ma Chao has been preparing for several days before they are all ready. Especially the wild geese among them, and this is still a must-have, fortunately, it is autumn now, so the wild geese can still be finished, but it does take a lot of effort to get it.

And a few days after Ma Chao came back, Xuzhou Mizhen and his party had already arrived in Longxi. A lot of people came to the Mi family this time, but because of customs, men and women can't meet before they get married, so Ma Chao didn't see Mi Zhen either, but he knew that they had already come.

After Mi Zhen and his entourage arrived in Longxi, Nacai was brought by Ma Chao's matchmaker Ma Riyan with gifts, of course, praise is indispensable, and Ma Riyan is a great Confucian, these things naturally can't be difficult for him. The Mi family knows who the matchmaker Ma Riyan is, and they are indeed flattered after seeing him. However, Ma Riyan's sentence said that everyone will be a family in the future, which made everyone in the Mi family suddenly feel a lot easier.

After Nacai, it is to ask for a name, which is much simpler than Nacai. It is nothing more than asking the woman's name, age and birthdate, which is the eight characters of birth. Then calculate whether there is any opposition between men and women, or whether there are any places where it is not suitable for marriage and so on. However, in Ma Chao's view, these are just a situation, if you really want to say that it is not suitable to become a husband and wife or that there is something inappropriate, then can you still not get married?

And then there's Najib, there's not much to say about this, but it's just to divinate whether the two are inappropriate, and then the man's matchmaker will notify the woman after it is suitable, and this matter is so given, in fact, it is not much different from engagement.

As for the recruitment, this is actually the most practical dowry for the woman. And Ma Chao prepared a thousand catties of gold after the most slugging, as well as a hundred horses, plus countless cloths. He took out all the basics of himself, and except for what his mother had prepared for him, the rest was borrowed from Mr. Cui. And Ma Chao thought very simply, a rich family like the Mi family really doesn't care about the amount of the dowry.

But he thinks that the daughter, the ancient lady called the daughter, and this also represents the status of Mi Zhen in his heart, and the daughter is not comparable. As for the horses and cloth, these things are nothing more than the rules of the rivers and lakes, but Ma Chao gave more away, but for a local tyrant like Ma Chao, these are just trivial.

Needless to say, the date has already been set, the sixth day of the eighth month, so I only waited until that day to marry Mi Zhen by Ma Chaoying, and waited until the church entered the cave room, and this family was married.

After that, the guests who came to attend the wedding banquet arrived one after another, and the farther they went, the earlier they came, so the first wave of people from Youzhou came, Du Li and the eighteen sons came.

"Hahaha, Shuming, everyone, it's all here!!"

Ma Chao said with a smile to Du Li and his party, I haven't seen them for many years, and Ma Chao feels that these people haven't changed much. If there is really a change, it is still eighteen, and it seems that it should be stronger than it was at the beginning.

"Lord!"

Li Wei, the eldest of the eighteen sons, said, and although the seventeen people couldn't speak, they also hugged Ma Chao.

They all know that as Ma Chao's reputation is getting bigger and bigger, and his official position is getting higher and higher, he is now in Liangzhou Mu, so it will not be too far from the day when his eighteen brothers will take revenge.

"Good, good! I wonder how you have been in the last few years? ”

Li Wei smiled, it seems that they have been good all these years, "The lord of labor is concerned, and our brothers are very good." But now that we have all returned from our studies, we can serve under the Lord's account!! ”

Ma Chao also smiled, although the generals under him are not too few, but there are too many talents. And with Ma Chao's thoughts, in fact, even if Li Wei doesn't mention it this time, he will say what he wants the eighteenth son to stay.

"Yes, yes! That's exactly what I did this time, great! And I have never forgotten what I promised you back then, and now it's time to fulfill my promise!! ”

"I'm waiting to thank my lord!" Li Wei said, and the rest of the people bowed to Ma Chao.

Ma Chao nodded to Li Wei and didn't say anything more. And he looked at Du Li, "Shu Ming, don't come to harm?" ”

Du Li is still the same as he was at the beginning, originally thought that Du Yi and Ma Chao had a gambling contract at the beginning, and now Du Li should be called Ma Chao's lord, but Du Li has obviously been unconvinced, so he didn't call it that. Moreover, Ma Chao has handed over the eighteen sons to the three Du brothers for so many years, and the three Du brothers have done their best to them, so both parties tacitly never mentioned this matter again.

In fact, for Ma Chao, although Du Li is a talent, there is indeed no shortage of such a person under his account now. It's just that Du Li has this character, and Ma Chao sometimes has to worry about him.

Du Li just hugged Ma Chao and said lightly: "There is Lao Zhoumu to worry about it, the ceremony is okay!" ”

Ma Chao said in his heart when he heard this, Du Li didn't seem to have changed at all, and now he still has this stinky temper, as if everyone owes him hundreds of thousands of gold. Alas, I don't know when this person will be able to change. Du Liqi is indeed capable, yes, but there is a sky outside the sky, and this character will suffer sooner or later, Ma Chao thought so. But he also knew that he couldn't care about other people's things.

A day later, Guan Hai also came to Longxi with Liao Hua and his entourage, along with the 100 soldiers who followed Ma Chao in Dunhuang that year, it should be said that only ninety-nine came at this time, because Ergou had already come to Longxi with Wei Ping.

Ma Chao was very happy to see everyone, and except for Liao Hua, these people have been following him for many years. Even if it's Liao Hua, it's actually been around for years, but I don't know if he still recognizes himself as the lord now.

Sure enough, Ma Chao asked Liao Hua: "How has Yuan Jian been all these years?" "Ma Chaozhi Dao Liaohua already has a table word.

"Returning to the state pastor, it has been good all these years, and there is Lao Zhoumu who cares!"

Ma Chao shook his head secretly, and said in his heart that Liao Hua still doesn't recognize himself as the lord, and after all these years, it still hasn't changed.

What came later was beyond Ma Chao's expectations, it was Zhang Ji, Wang Yan and Pang Rou from Dunhuang. Ma Chao didn't expect them to come, to say that after he made the history of Liangzhou Thorn, he had never been to Dunhuang, and he had no contact with them. Now that I am married, I forgot to inform others, but I didn't expect them to come to congratulate.

"I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed, I didn't notify you of the marriage, I didn't expect you to come, this is a super fault!!"

Although these three people used to work under their own hands, they were not the relationship between the lord and his subordinates, so Ma Chao was still very polite to them.

The three of them smiled when they heard this, and Zhang Ji, as the representative of the three, said to Ma Chao: "Today, after the three of us learn the news that Taishou is going to get married, won't I come right away!" And Taishou doesn't have to be polite, I think it's normal to forget because of the many affairs of Taishou! ”

Seeing Zhang Ji say this, Ma Chao understood that Zhang Ji called himself Taishou like this, so it means that the three of them still haven't forgotten the time when they were Taishou in Dunhuang and did things with everyone, in fact, they haven't forgotten it.

After living in Maoling, Ma Chao's grandmother's family, as well as several villagers, fathers and elders also arrived, but Cui Hong couldn't come, but asked Ma Chao's grandmother to bring Ma Chao's gifts that had already been prepared.

Ma Chao is not only busy with his marriage these days, but there is another thing he has not forgotten, that is, Jia Xu Jia Wenhe, who was still under house arrest by him in the Longxian Assassin's Mansion.

When he left Longxian County to go to Longxi, he deliberately found Jia Xu, "Mr. Wenhe, you are about to get married on the sixth day of the eighth month, I don't know what Mr. plans are?" ”

Ma Chaozhi said that he couldn't convince Jia Xu for a while, and after going to Longxi to get busy with the wedding, he couldn't care about Jia Xu's side. He didn't think Jia Xu would leave, at least Jia Xu really shouldn't leave at the moment. Ma Chao thinks so. So he wanted to see if Jia Xu had the intention to attend his wedding banquet.

Jia Xu smiled when he heard this, "I want to congratulate the state pastor here, 'Candle Night in the Cave House', a great joy in life!" ”

Ma Chaoxin said, it's useless for you to talk to me about this, "I want to invite Mr. to attend Chao's wedding banquet, I don't know what Mr. wants?" ”

As soon as Ma Chao saw that Jia Xu was pretending to be stupid there, he directly picked it out.

Jia Xu Ha laughed, "Good, good! Since the state pastor is so enthusiastic, then Xu naturally won't be hypocritical! It's just that I want to leave this place for a while these days, and I hope that the state pastor will agree! ”

When Ma Chao heard this, although he didn't think Jia Xu was going to run, but Jia Xu was going to leave Longxian at this time, Ma Chao gritted his teeth, he remembered a sentence in his previous life, called "I am lucky, I lose my life", he decided that Jia Xu would not run, so why should he leave for a while.

"Of course, Sir has something to do, but it doesn't hurt to go!"

"Isn't the state pastor afraid of running away?"

Ma Chao shook his head, "Mr. Chao believes!" ”

Jia Xu smiled, "Okay, on the sixth day of the eighth month, Xu will definitely go to Longxi to congratulate the state pastor on his wedding!" ”

"Chao greets Mr. in Longxi!" Ma Chao stood up and said.

On the sixth day of the first month of August, this day is a good day, whether it is the weather, or the atmosphere of Longxi Di Dao at this time, people in the world may not know Lu Dao, but the people of Liangzhou can know Lu Dao, their state pastor is going to marry a wife, in Longxi. But although he married his wife in Longxi, Ma Chao would have to take Mi Zhen back to Longxian County in Hanyang in the future, after all, the Assassin's Mansion was there, and Ma Chao couldn't leave that place for a while.

Ma Chao married Mi Zhen to his new house in Longxi, and there were indeed a lot of guests at today's wedding banquet, although many people couldn't come, but they also sent people to send congratulatory gifts. Whether it was Dong Zhuo, Zhang Rang, He Jin, Cao Cao, Huangfu Song, Sun Jian and others, they all sent people to send congratulatory gifts.

The person sent by Dong Zhuo was Zhang Ji, and Zhang Rang sent a little yellow door over, and this little yellow door Ma Chao had also seen, the one who was sent by Liu Hong to deliver the edict to Dong Zhuo. As for He Jin, the person he sent was Wu Kuang, and he was also familiar with Ma Chao. And Cao Cao is the most interesting, and he directly straightened out his son. This is also the first time Ma Chao has seen Cao Ang, and Cao Ang has great respect for Ma Chao, an uncle on the left and an uncle on the right, in fact, Ma Chao is more than six years older than Cao Ang, but the generation is there. As for Huangfu Song, one of his right-hand men came on his behalf, and Sun Jian, he asked his subordinate Cheng Pu to come to congratulate him on his behalf.

And some officials in the court, although they couldn't come, they also asked people to bring congratulatory gifts to congratulate, such as Sima Fang and others, they also sent people over. There are also officials from various counties in Liangzhou, who can come anyway, and those who can't come have sent people over. After all, Ma Chao is a pastor of Liangzhou, a feudal official, in charge of a state, and now he is married to a wife, and if the officials of the counties do not come, they will not be able to say it. And Yan Zhong, the teacher who lives in Longxian County, who is closest to Ma Chao, also came.

And Jia Xu, who had disappeared for a while, finally arrived on this day, Jia Xu did not come empty-handed, but also came with a congratulatory gift. After Ma Chao saw Jia Xu, he was happy and had special respect for Jia Xu. People who know Jia Xu know that Ma Chao is a corporal of Lixian, but those who don't know Jia Xu still think that Jia Xu is a big man. can make the state pastor of a state so courteous, isn't that a big man.

However, the most surprising thing for Ma Chao was Queen He, although she didn't send anyone directly, she asked her uncle Ma Riyan to bring her congratulatory gifts, and her congratulatory gifts were still two, one for herself, and the other for Mi Zhen. Ma Chao knew in his heart that Queen He was showing favor to herself, but this woman should not be taken lightly, in addition to the congratulatory gifts for herself, even Mi Zhen also has it, which shows the problem, a woman's mind is not simple.

In the end, even Liu Hong sent angels to congratulate him with congratulatory gifts, and Liu Hong's holy decree was very simple, nothing more than blessings for the newlyweds, and words like giving birth to a noble son early. But naturally, countless possessions were given to Ma Chao and Mi Zhen, and of course these were given as gifts.

After Ma Chao and Mizhen finished worshipping the church, the newcomer entered the cave room. But Ma Chao was left behind by many people, and he had expected this. And to say that Chen Zhi, Cui An and Wu Anguo, who have been with him all the year round, don't dare to pour themselves how to drink, but the eighteen people still don't understand, but Ma Chao is the one who comes does not refuse, when he poured down the only boss who can speak, Li Wei, Ma Chao made a hidden look at Chen Zhi and them, and the other seventeen people have Chen to deal with them.

As a result, Ma Chao ran to the cave room first, and on the wine table were Chen Dao, Cui An, Wu Anguo, Zhang Fei, Pang De, Zang Ba, Guan Hai, Liao Hua, Wei Ping, Zhang Ji, Wang Yan, Pang Rou and Hu Zhen, they were seventeen of the eighteen sons, as for the final result, Ma Chao didn't know, of course, he wouldn't care about this.

If it weren't for the fact that today was Ma Chao's big day, it wouldn't be a problem to let him pour a few more at this time. But the beauty is still waiting for herself in the cave room, and with Ma Chao's understanding of Mi Zhen over the years, Mi Zhen doesn't care too much about her drinking, but if she gets drunk too much, then whether she can let herself go to bed is a problem.

So Ma Chao really didn't dare to drink too much, he hurried to the cave room, and saw Mi Zhen of the phoenix crown, he was a heart ape at this time. Ma Chao didn't think about it so much when he worshipped, but he had to think about it more at this critical moment.

After the two drank the wine, Ma Chao just wanted to say something, but he thought about it again, now everything he said was pale and weak, and he had to put it into action, man, it should be like this.

"Husband, don't ......"

Ma Chao moved quickly, so he had already launched an attack before Mi Zhen could react. Since then, Ma Chao, who has been a man in two lifetimes, has finally stepped into the ranks of real men.
