Chapter 865: Desperate Lu Qiling
"Yuan Shao has moved his army into Yanzhou?" Ma Chao looked at Lu Qiling in surprise, hurriedly returned to the desk, couldn't help but rub his temples, and stared at the mountains and rivers above, as if he wanted to see the reason for the sudden change in the wind and clouds.
And Lu Qiling looked at Ma Chao's gradually gloomy face, and she was anxious. But thinking of what Liu Xiu said to him when she rescued Lu Bu before she went out of the city that day, she felt like a dream and unbelievable for a while.
Because at that time, Liu Xiu said: "Remember, after meeting Ma Chao, you must understand that you are the wife of the Ma family, not the daughter of the Lu family!" If you want to kill your father, just scold yourself. Because after that, you will know what it means to have nothing and regret it for life!!
Lu Qiling really couldn't figure out why Liu Xiu mentioned Ma Chao when she went out of the city to save Lu Bu. But later she found out that after seeing Lu Bu, the first thing Lu Bu said was: "Break through quickly!" Go to Xuzhou to inform Ma Mengqi about Yanzhou! ”
It turned out that her father and aunt, as well as the Chen Gong who was silent that day and only looked at her with complicated eyes, all knew that she was bound to come to Xuzhou to beg Ma Chao!
In fact, Lu Qiling herself didn't expect that when she saw Lu Bu being besieged by Cao Jun and Yuan Jun, the first thing that came to her mind was the husband who was cold and never thought about her!
It seems that he is the only one who relies on her, and even the entire Lu family!
Therefore, after Lu Qiling struggled very much in her heart, she turned around and fought her way out of the encirclement under the protection of Lu Bu. At the same time, on the way to Xuzhou, she was entangled several times, because she didn't know how to wait for her identity to see Ma Chao again!
At this time, Liu Xiu's words echoed in Lu Qiling's ears, and Lu Qiling seemed to really understand Liu Xiu's intentions. Therefore, she bit her lip, put the awkwardness and shame in her heart behind her, and clumsily began to rub her temples for Ma Chao: Several times, Lu Qiling saw Diao Chan serving Ma Chao like this at Ma's house, and Ma Chao was always very relieved and grateful........
Sure enough, after Lu Qiling did this, Ma Chao's next tone was really softer. The content of it also made Lu Qiling feel a lot more relieved: "As you said, Feng Xiangong should not be in danger of his life at this time, and Puyang City should still be in the hands of Feng Xiangong." After all, you said that Puyang City still has 30,000 fighting strength, and Chen Gong also acquiesced in your coming to me for help........"
"Why does the husband say that?" Although these words are very heartwarming, Ma Chao is also very sure. But Lu Qiling is a woman after all, and when she is worried about the safety of her family, she still can't help but reveal the weakness in a woman's nature.
Often, when a woman asks for a man's opinion, she wants to draw her existing opinion from another clear and decisive mouth. Fortunately, whether intentionally or unintentionally, Ma Chao's answer was very able to appease Lu Qiling's heart.
Feng Xiangong only took 15,000 men to pursue Cao's army, obviously because he was afraid that Cao Cao would deceive and use his tricks to win Puyang City. And in this way, the soldiers and horses left in Puyang City naturally became a powerful guarantee in the hands of Liu Xiu and Chen Gong. After Feng Xiangong pursued Cao Jun for a long time and did not return, presumably Liu Xiu, Chen Gong and others had already seen the clues. Since they agreed to let you go out of the city to ask for help, they had actually decided to use Puyang soldiers and horses to rescue Feng Xiangong. So, if my guess is correct, as soon as you get out of the city gates, they will send at least 10,000 men to rescue Feng Xiangong. ”
Speaking of this, looking at Lu Qiling's still ignorant expression, she explained simply: "There are 30,000 people in Puyang City, but only 2,000 soldiers and horses are given to you to find out the news, it's really weird." After all, there was no need for them to do this and use 2,000 soldiers and horses to investigate. However, Liu Xiu made it clear in advance that he would let you come here for help, which made everything normal, because their fundamental purpose was not to let you save Feng Xiangong at all, but to let you seek a way back for the Lu family! ”
"Since Puyang is still there, in order to protect Yanzhou, my husband should quickly think of rescuing my father!" Saying this, Lu Qiling still used a little thought. She knew that talking about the friendship between husband and wife, cooperation between the two families, and the like, would inevitably make Ma Chao scoff. Therefore, she used the point of view of the Ma family's wife and mentioned the factors that are beneficial to the Ma family in order to protect Yanzhou.
It's a pity that this little cleverness is too pediatric in front of Ma Chao. Ma Chao gently brushed Lu Qiling's absent-minded hand away, and after rubbing his temples heavily himself, he said casually after having a headache: "These words, presumably you will say this after Liu Xiu's guidance, right?" ”
"This ........" Lu Qiling said that to be honest, she hated Ma Chao's calm wisdom, as if nothing in her heart could hide from her eyes. And what he thinks and does, he can only plan in extreme concealment. But even so, most of the time, in exchange for Ma Chao's sight!
But today is different, Lu Bu and his family are in danger, and Lu Qiling is no longer in much mood to hide it from Ma Chao. Therefore, Lu Qiling said directly: "Yes, before Aunt Liu came, she told me that she must understand her identity as the wife of the Ma family, and let me sincerely wait for your answer." Did you hear that? I'm waiting for your answer........ I can't figure it out, why didn't she let me directly beg you to save the Lu family!! ”
Ma Chao's eyes were cold when he heard this, and he was about to speak. However, Lu Qiling didn't wait for Ma Chao to speak, and continued directly: "I am your wife, you are the son-in-law of the Lu family, and now that the Lu family is in trouble, you naturally have the responsibility to save it!" ”
The more she talked, the more excited she became, Lu Qiling's heart was burned by the fire, which had already made her into a hysterical state: "My father has been listening to your plans back then, from Yuan Shao to Chen Liu, until the door of Yanzhou was opened for the Ma family. And at this time, I have endured it again and again, and even ran sleepless for three days and three nights to beg you........Why, why can't you princes help each other like a family?!" ”
Speaking of this, a touch of incomprehensible madness appeared in Lu Qiling's eyes, she took a step back, her face was resolute, she suddenly pulled out the dagger on her waist, and said sharply: "I know, you still hate me for being a father, you hate me for not being able to pounce on you and the Ma family with one heart!" Good! Today, as long as you promise to save the Lu family, I will end your resentment! ”
"Sure enough, she is Lu Bu's daughter!" Ma Chao looked at Lu Qiling's madness with a cold expression, and did not have the slightest intention of stepping forward to stop him, on the contrary, the sharpness of his eyes became more and more cold as ice, and finally shouted directly at Lu Qiling: "Then you tell me, do you want to kill yourself in front of me, or like your father, stab your arm and bleed Mingzhi?!" ”
"You! ……..” Lu Qiling was suddenly enraged, because she once again found that Ma Chao had hit her psychology!
Indeed, Lu Qiling pulled out the dagger because she wanted to learn from Lu Bu and stab her arm Mingzhi, saying that after this incident, she would completely forget about the Lu family and think about the Ma family. Unexpectedly, Ma Chao trampled her determination and pain under her feet! He even talked about making himself apologize!
The raging anger instantly burned through Lu Qiling's chest, at this time her face was hideous and miserable, like a ghost, under the attack of anger, all the disdain and deliberate alienation of Ma Chao in her memory turned into a thick resentment! In the end, Lu Qiling flew directly and pounced on Ma Chao, shouting miserably: "Ma Chao, I'm going to kill you!" ”
Looking at Lu Qiling's unreasonableness, Ma Chao seemed to have expected it, his negative hand was as steady as a mountain, and he looked coldly at Lu Qiling's sharp but flawed knife.
dagger and body,
Flashing cold light,
However, after a moment, there was no blood splattering at all. Yes, only Lu Qiling looked at the bluestone ground numbly with lifeless eyes, and the dagger next to her that was intercepted by Ma Chao and thrown aside.......
"I, I really can't kill you......." Xu is the time of a stick of incense, and it seems to be a hundred years of turn. Lu Qiling, who was stopped by Ma Chao and pushed to the ground, held the ground with her hands stiff and numb. It seems that from the cold and hard bluestone bricks, I saw that she grew up at this time, and the scenes of her life flashed in front of her like an illusion.
Finally, she raised her head and looked at Ma Chao in a daze. That kind of look, there is pride, grievance, happiness, and sweetness, but what is not there is hatred and hatred for Ma Chao. And Ma Chao looked at Lu Qiling's strange eyes, and suddenly seemed to understand something, and hurriedly rushed to Lu Qiling, wanting to kick away the dagger in front of Lu Qiling.
It's a pity, after all, it was still a step slower, and Lu Qiling, who was determined to die, had already shot like lightning before the horse exceeded her feet, and took the dagger into her own hands, she put the dagger in front of her neck without any nostalgia, like an elegant swan to cry:
"I can't get your love, I can't save my family, what's the point of living in this world empty?! ……..”
