Chapter 939: A Family, Advance and Retreat Together
Jieting City was besieged by more than 200,000 Wei troops, how did Ma Yunlu and the others pass through the iron bucket-like siege and come to the city?
Wasn't Ma Tie captured by the Wei army, his life and death were uncertain, and how did he appear under the city again?
Moreover, is it still with Ma Yunlu?
In an instant, countless incomprehensible questions came to his heart, causing Ma Chao to fall into a moment of shock.
Yang Fu frowned, with an ominous premonition, and said in a deep voice: "This matter is really strange, I'm afraid there is fraud, so be careful?" β
Ma Chao came to his senses, jumped up, and asked, "Are there really only two people coming?" β
"That's right, it's just two people."
Ma Chao waved his hand without thinking: "Since there are only two of them, then there is nothing to worry about, take them to see me quickly." β
The soldiers took the order and left.
"Could it be that the third brother is still alive, how did he get with the little sister, what happened to them......" Ma Chao rubbed his fists and muttered to himself, both expectant and full of doubt.
Yang Fu's eyes were dark, his thoughts were flying, pondering the suspicion, but the ominous premonition in his heart became stronger and stronger.
Half an hour later, footsteps sounded, and Ma Tie and Ma Yunlu, brother and sister, walked out of the lobby side by side.
"It's really them!"
Ma Chao looked at his younger brother and sister, surprised and delighted, stunned in place, and was a little overwhelmed for a while.
"I've seen big brother!" But the two siblings bowed their hands to him.
A big brother immediately woke up Ma Chao.
Ma Chao, who came to his senses, strode forward, patted Ma Tie fiercely, and said excitedly: "Third brother, sure enough, it's you, my brother thought you were killed by Wei Jun, but I didn't expect you to be alive." β
Ma Tie wanted to answer truthfully, but when he saw that Yang Fu was also present, he smiled and said: "Our Ma family has God's blessing, and my life should not be extinguished, so I didn't die." β
Ma Chao laughed, and looked at Ma Yunlu again: "Yunlu, aren't you in Zhuanglang City with your father, how did you come through the Wei army's siege camp, it's too risky, and how did you and your third brother meet together?" β
Ma Yunlu didn't rush to answer, but looked at Yang Fu: "General Yang, there are some family matters to talk about between our brothers and sisters, please avoid it." β
Yang Fu is also a knowledgeable person, although there are 10,000 doubts in his heart, he has to give up his hand and withdraw from the hall.
"Yunlu, that Yang Fu is his own person, and he has to hide anything from him." Ma Chao hadn't noticed anything unusual yet.
Ma Yunlu's expression became more and more serious, looked at Ma Tie, and asked, "Third brother, do you think you say it, or I say it." β
"You're in charge of this, or you're going to talk about it." Ma Tie's tone and expression were equally solemn.
Ma Chao finally sensed that something was wrong, and looked at the mysterious brother and sister in front of him, and couldn't help but feel deep suspicion in his heart.
Ma Yunlu took a deep breath and said: "Big brother, in the past few days that you have been trapped in the street pavilion, I, my father, the second brother and the third brother have taken all the family members of our Ma family and surrendered to the Great Wei, and now they are in the Wei camp. β
Ma Chao was taken aback, and his body shook violently in an instant, and his stunned eyes seemed to have heard the most unbelievable thing in his life.
"Yunlu, what are you talking about, you, you-" Ma Chao pointed at Ma Yunlu, so shocked that he didn't know what to say.
Ma Yunlu was not in a hurry, and sent Ma Ji to ask Su Zhe to surrender, revealing Liu Bei's plan to attack Yongcheng, so that Su Zhe had already prepared and told Liu Bei what happened.
Then, she told Ma Chao how she persuaded Ma Teng to flee Zhuanglang City with the Ma family, come to Wei Ying, and even just met Su Zhe and was warmly accepted by Su Zhe.
Ma Chao's body shook, his face became more and more shocked, as if he was listening to a play, and he was so shocked that he couldn't say a word.
After a long time, Ma Chao came back to his senses, couldn't help but be furious, pointed at Ma Yunlu and scolded: "Okay, you crazy girl, you are usually willful, forget it, such a major matter is related to the life and death of our Ma family, how can you make decisions without permission!" β
Ma Yunlu was not angry, but said coldly: "Big brother, do you really think that you have defended the street pavilion, won this battle for Liu Bei, and married me to Liu Bei, and our Ma family will be able to sit firmly in power as a relative?" You're so naΓ―ve. β
Ma Chao was stunned and ignored the meaning of her words for a while.
"Big brother, do you know that after you left, then Liu Bei sent someone to spy on us, from beginning to end, he was just using our Ma family, and he never trusted us at all, such a monarch, even if you helped him conquer the world, do you think you can die well?"
Ma Yunlu's words, Ma Chao's expression was shocked, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"What do you say? Your Majesty sent someone to spy on you? Ma Chao asked in surprise.
Ma Yunlu immediately told Ma Chao how he found the stalker in Zhuanglang City that day, and how he forced him to find out, because he was instructed by Wu Ban to spy on his Ma family.
Ma Chao was silent.
His anger, his shock, quickly depressed at this moment, his brows furrowed tightly, and a trace of gloom swept into his eyes.
Obviously, Liu Bei's move made him feel a little chilled.
Thinking that he ignored the danger of being in a desperate situation, he asked Ying to guard the street pavilion for Liu Bei, but he didn't expect that Liu Bei was suspicious of him, but he was watching his family behind his back, for fear that he would rebel.
At this moment, Ma Chao has a kind of sincerity that feeds the dog's heart.
After Ma Yunlu finished saying what he should say, he looked at Ma Tie and motioned for him to say a few words as well.
Ma Tie said: "Big brother, we were forced by the situation to obey Liu Bei back then, but the current situation is that the collapse of the Han Kingdom is a foregone conclusion, and the Great Wei Dynasty will dominate the world in accordance with the mandate of heaven, since Liu Bei treats us like that, why should our Ma family be foolish and loyal to him, and it is time to think about the future and destiny of my own family." β
Ma Chao was silent, pacing in the hall, caught in the tangle of weighing the pros and cons.
Ma Yunlu and Ma Tie glanced at each other and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, they knew that their brother had been shaken.
After a long time, Ma Chao looked up to the sky and let out a long sigh: "Liu Xuande, my Ma family has shed enough blood for you, since you don't have the bearing of the Lord and have always been unwilling to trust me, then don't blame me Ma Chao left you." β
After sighing, Ma Chao had no hesitation on his face, looked at his younger brother and sister, waved his hand and said: "Everything that I, Ma Chao, have done is for our Ma family, since my father and you have all returned to Emperor Wei, what else can I do, I have made up my mind, open the city to surrender to Emperor Wei, and defect to Great Wei." β
Ma Yunlu and Ma Tie were overjoyed, and the brother and sister were about to jump up excitedly.
Ma Yunlu grabbed Ma Chao's arm and said with a smile: "Big brother, you're right, this is my good big brother." β
"You, you, with a sister like you who specializes in pit my brother, I don't know what kind of sin Ma Chao did in my last life~~" Ma Chao couldn't cry or laugh, and poked her forehead fiercely.
Ma Yunlu stuck out his tongue and grimaced at her, giggling non-stop.
"Ma Chao, you are so bold, you dare to betray the Son of Heaven!"
At this moment, outside the lobby, an angry roar suddenly sounded.
