Chapter 426: I Am the Country
Thank you to the Inhata brothers for a monthly pass!
"Your Majesty trusts you so much, the minister dares not to die, as long as the minister is in the Western Regions for a day, the countries of the Western Regions will definitely submit to the rule of my Great Wei!"
Ma Teng is a Xiliang person, plus as a martial artist, he still has a bold side, if he is replaced by other surrendered ministers, he may still worry about this and that, but Ma Teng did not, Cao Cao's value, his trust in this subordinate and the ambition revealed in it, all of which made Ma Teng agree without the slightest hesitation.
I have to say that Ma Chao's personality is indeed inherited from Ma Teng, at least, how similar Ma Teng is to Ma Chao at this time.
"Very good, so that the military of the Western Regions will be entrusted to you."
Ma Teng agreed without delaying again and again, which made Cao Cao feel very satisfied, as for saying that he was not worried that Ma Teng would not be in control in the future, Cao Cao had never been worried about this.
Not to mention going to the Western Regions when the time comes, Ma Teng only manages the affairs of the war, such as food and government affairs, which are not in his charge.
Besides, even if Ma Teng can reach the sky and obtain the food of the army at that time, the dozens of small countries in the Western Regions alone will be enough to drag Ma Teng, and at that time, Cao Cao can gather the army and rush to the Western Regions without panic to destroy it.
What's more, Ma Teng will go to the Western Regions alone at that time, Ma Chao, Ma Dai, and Ma Yunlu will all be left by Cao Cao for various reasons, as long as the descendants of the Ma family are all in Daliang, Cao Cao will be very sure to ensure that Ma Teng will not dare to rebel!
After all, the inheritance of children is the most important thing in Han society. This is also why, in the past during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Almost every country has a reason why the prince should come to his country, except that it may teach the prince to have a good impression or fear of his country. It is also because in this way that certain wars can be reduced.
Now that he has made up his mind to make good use of Ma Teng's sword, thinking of the plan in his heart, Cao Cao immediately threw the discipline in his heart to I don't know where to go, glanced at Zhao Yun and Ma Yunlu, Cao Cao began to be a matchmaker and said: "Shoucheng, there is one more thing today, I still have to listen to your opinion." You also know that Zilong is my favorite general, and he got up early to help me a lot, coincidentally, between Zilong and your daughter, it can be said that Lang has a concubine, so I thought, if you don't object, then take advantage of this time to be the first of the year. What do you think of the joy and joy of giving them marriage in person? ”
Cao Cao's words made everyone present stunned. Compared with Ma Chao and Ma Dai, who were silent, Ma Teng, who came back to his senses, was happy with a hint of regret, after all, if it was possible. He still hoped that Ma Yunlu could enter Cao Cao's harem, but since he couldn't. It is actually not bad to be the wife of Zhao Yun, a general under Cao Cao.
Not to mention. This time their wedding was given by Cao Cao himself, this alone is glorious enough, thinking of this, Ma Teng is satisfied, as for opposition, just kidding, why opposition, this is a great thing.
As for Zhao Yun, when he heard Cao Cao's marriage, he was stunned, but then his face was not joy but worry, because he could be said to be a person who knew Ma Yunlu very well, and he was deeply afraid that she would resist regardless of the occasion and dignity because of this matter.
And later facts proved that Zhao Yun was not worried, just before Ma Teng agreed, Ma Yunlu directly opposed Cao Cao's marriage, which made the atmosphere present weird.
"Bastard, since ancient times, marriage has been the order of your parents, how can you oppose it, not to mention, Your Majesty gives marriage, Chrysostom and Yuyan, how can you oppose it if you say you oppose it, and you don't want Your Majesty to make amends!"
Looking at Cao Cao, whose expression remained unchanged and there was no wave in the ancient well, Ma Teng's heart became anxious, and she was even more annoyed by Ma Yunlu's ignorance, did she still think that this was Xiliang Wuwei, here was Daliang, and it was the Great Wei Emperor who sat here.
Ma Teng said harshly, but in fact, he was opening up for Ma Yunlu, after all, he was here at this time, as long as Ma Yunlu went down this step and accompanied Cao Cao, Cao Cao was unlikely to punish a little woman for this, but unfortunately, the stubbornness and violent temper of the Ma family are obviously in the same vein.
Ma Yunlu glanced at Ma Teng hatefully, and said angrily: "I'm not wrong, I don't like Zhao Yun, why should I hand it over to him, Your Majesty, you asked me to persuade my father to surrender, I have done it, why are you not satisfied, is the dignified Emperor of Great Wei so idle that he has time to take care of my little woman's marriage?!" ”
"Bastard!"
Syllable!
The loud slap echoed, Ma Yunlu covered his cheeks and looked at Ma Teng who slapped himself in disbelief, and Ma Chao, Ma Dai and Zhao Yun on the side were also shocked.
Ma Teng didn't care about their reactions, at this time, after he stopped Ma Yunlu's more and more excessive words, he immediately bowed down to Cao Cao, and said with sincere fear: "Your Majesty forgives me, the little girl doesn't know Your Majesty's grace, after the minister goes back, she will definitely teach her well, only ask Your Majesty to spare the little girl once for the sake of the minister!" ”
Cao Cao quietly watched the reactions of everyone present, to be honest, but Ma Yunlu refused without hesitation, and after that, Cao Cao was not angry in his heart, if it wasn't for Ma Teng and Zhao Yun's reactions, at that time, Cao Cao would never have let her continue to talk, but directly dragged it down and executed, as for the so-called pity and cherishing jade, I'm sorry, after coming to this era for so long, after experiencing I don't know how many wars, there is no use in feelings like this, has long been abandoned by Cao Cao.
The supremacy of imperial power and the supremacy of one's word, no one is allowed to challenge, even if the person challenging is Cao Cao's wife and concubine, it must be Cai Yan, Diao Chan, Mrs. Ding, etc., Cao Cao will not hesitate to execute them!
Just because in this era, almost a large part of the social peace is built on the stability of the imperial power, so the sentence is not wrong, the process of the whole society has not yet reached the republican era, the emperor and the stability of the imperial power itself represents the stability of a country, and the instability of the imperial power often begins when it is challenged.
Ma Yunlu's words just now, to put it mildly, are just a little girl's venting, and it can't be anything, but if you say it bigger, it is challenging the imperial power, challenging the supremacy of the emperor, challenging the emperor's golden mouth, and not obeying the holy decree, which is already a big rebellion in itself.
