After Han Sui's injuries were no longer in trouble, Diao Chan persuaded Han Ying to her room, leaving a separate space for Ma Chao and Han Sui.

"It's getting interesting, this broken blade....... If I'm not mistaken, it's the scimitar you once gave me. Ma Chao picked up the broken blade that was pulled out by Hua Tuo and was still soaked in blood, and said, "In this congratulatory gift, you didn't bring any more scimitars, did you?" ”

"No, and the assassins didn't use scimitars, I'm sure of that." Han Sui frowned, and then as if he remembered something, he said: "Those people's skills don't seem to be like fighting on the battlefield, but more like ......."

"Jianghu people?" Ma Chao's face became more and more heavy, and after he took a closer look at the broken blade, he found that where the broken blade was broken, there were actually dotted and broken points like sesame seeds. After wiping the blood stains on it, Ma Chao took the broken blade and roasted it on the fire candle, then leaned over his nose and sniffed it, and after that, his face became even more gloomy.

"How?" Although Han Sui didn't know what Ma Chao was doing, he could probably guess Ma Chao's intentions. And Ma Chao didn't hide it privately, and said with a wry smile: "This is indeed the scimitar of the Western Regions that you gave me, but the person who used it specially found a blacksmith and recast them." And ......"

Speaking of this, Ma Chao's wry smile became more and more obvious, and the solemn look on Han Sui's face became even stronger. Because, Ma Chao really said that sentence: "And, according to my preliminary judgment, they should be looking for the secret ....... to build the iron blade of Majiasu"

When he heard Ma Chao's answer like this, the solemn look on Han Sui's face became even more worried, and he said angrily: "The Han family spent a lot of money to ask craftsmen from the Western Regions to improve their blades, but they still didn't succeed in two years. Ma Chao! Don't tell me, these people have been able to figure out your Ma family's Su Tie ........"

"Don't worry!" Ma Chao nodded his head at this time, and even said with a hint of schadenfreude: "If they really have mastered the secret of the Ma family's iron, then this blade will not be shattered in your lungs." The fact that you're alive is the best evidence that their experiment failed. ”

"Shaft!" Although Han Sui was angry, he still scolded Ma Chao with a smile. Because he knows best what the Ma family's Su Tie Blade means. But when he finished scolding, he asked worriedly, "As you can see, they have found the trick?" However, after Ma Chao heard this, he just smiled and did not answer. Han Sui felt speechless, and couldn't help laughing, and didn't ask any more.

In fact, the level of these imitation Ma family blades is not high, and it is not even as good as the quality of the original Western Regions scimitar. Because of the information obtained from the fragment, Ma Chao found that the fragment had the smell of charcoal after being heated by pockmarks, indicating that they only saw the sharpness and speed of Ma Jiasu's iron blade, so they wanted to directly reforge it after obtaining the Western Regions scimitar of superior quality to the Han Dynasty, and at the same time add toner to make it harder and sharper. But he didn't expect that in this way, although the hardness of the blade was strengthened, the flexibility was greatly reduced, and because of this, it would get stuck on Han Sui's ribs and shatter.

"People in the rivers and lakes still have scimitars in the Western Regions, and they have the financial resources and manpower to .......test and improve them," Ma Chao said leisurely, and he had basically guessed the mastermind behind this matter: in the whole world, those who have scimitars in the Western Regions, in addition to himself and Han Sui, are the only ones who have sent a few scimitars to the Western Regions as a deposit when he persuaded Lu Bu in Chang'an.

Lu Bu has no background in rivers and lakes. However, Duanmu Ruoyu was sure that Lu Bu had taken refuge in Wang Yun, and Wang Yun and Hong Cezong had broken off their connection. And with Wang Yun's energy, it is really not difficult to find a private forged iron shop...... But why did he do it?

Is it because he wants to take revenge on him for what he did in Chang'an a few days ago by provoking his relationship with Han Sui? Ma Chao shook his head, he felt that this idea was too ridiculous - if Wang Yun only had such a mind and trickery, it would be too insulting to Ma Chao's intelligence........

can turn over and over, Ma Chao can't think of a clue, and Han Sui is even more foggy. As a result, Ma Chao had no choice but to say: "Father-in-law, although I don't know who did it, it is confirmed that it should be related to a certain Yongliang Erzhou." You and I are ......"

"Needless to say, I know that." Seeing that Ma Chao gave up the investigation, Han Sui also said: "At the beginning, what Ma Han Shijiao said was actually nonsense. Now, you and I are sons-in-law, and we don't have to be so hypocritical when we speak. I can guarantee here that as long as the Ma family does not make a fatal mistake and the transaction between Yongliang and Liangzhou is still carried out in a steady manner, the soldiers and horses of Liangzhou will not enter Yongzhou for half a step! ”

"My father-in-law can't bear the wealth of the Ma family, right? The ordinary things in the Central Plains, as well as the specialties of the Ma family, once sold to the Hu people and the people of the Western Regions, it is several times the profit, and you can make a profit when you sell some rare things and sell them through the Ma family's shop. Speaking of this, Ma Chao also had a businessman's unique smile on his face. However, then the conversation changed and he spoke again: "Here, I will also tell you the truth to the old man, the Ma family is like the Han family, as long as the Han family does not take a step beyond the Lei Chi, it will not point the soldiers to Liangzhou!" ”

What Han Sui said was 'the Ma family made a fatal mistake', while the Ma family said 'don't take a step beyond the thunder pool', and the two sentences seem to be almost the same. But the meaning is very different: since Ma Daxing Technology, the Ma family has gradually had cross-era products that are not available in this world. Han Sui could annex Yongzhou, but he might not be able to get these product technologies; The Han family has no products, and the only thing to be proud of is that Han Sui opened up the trade routes on the Western Regions Road and established an intricate business network.

Therefore, it can be said that Han Sui was forced to capture Yongzhou; But Ma Chao has more control than Han Sui. After all, trade routes can always be established as long as they take time and money. Not to mention, there are far more talents in the Ma family than in Liangzhou......

Today, this assassination incident has made the Ma and Han families a complete showdown. But both Ma and Han know that this matter is by no means so simple, and the follow-up means do not know when and what kind of means will appear.

When Ma Chao returned to the room, it was almost dawn, and seeing Cai Yan already asleep in the bed tent, two tear stains soaked her makeup powder, Ma Chao couldn't help but feel guilty in his heart. Seeing Cai Yan's dishonest sleeping appearance again, revealing a smooth and round jade leg, Ma Chao couldn't help but smile warmly.

Lifting the warm quilt, Ma Chao gently hugged Cai Yan into his arms. At this moment, there was no trace of desire in his heart, only a quiet and down-to-earth feeling spreading. But he didn't want to, his light movements finally woke up Cai Yan. Ma Chao touched her cheeks and said apologetically, "Yan'er." ”

"Hmm."

"It's hard for you to marry a prince like me."

Cai Yan seemed to think for a moment, and finally said softly: "I am willing to ......"

At this moment, under the moon, the newlywed's green tent is arranged like a canopy. And under the moonlight of the sky, there are soldiers in troubled times, and arrogant soldiers and fierce generals are rushing through. Two young boys and girls, in this only peaceful place, held hands and whispered their vows. Although it is a little plain and sad, it is warm and timeless.

This night, the tired two, although they did not mingle, threw thousands of thoughts into the night and really put their hearts together......
