While the few people were talking, the waiter walked up to the second floor with warm wine.

At that time, winemaking technology was limited, and some harmful ingredients in the wine could not be removed. It was inevitable to have headaches after drinking too much. Later, some people found that although the alcohol smelled lighter after drinking, the wine that had been warmed with hot water would become lighter, but it would no longer have headaches after drinking.

So since ancient times, both winter and summer, ordinary officials and nobles like to drink the wine warmer and then drink it before drinking.

Of course, this wine can only be warmed once. If it is repeatedly removed, the aroma of the wine will evaporate, and even the best wine will become tasteless.

At this time, Xu Dingguo happened to see the waiter drinking, so he took advantage of drinking and swearing Ma Shaoyu's question. After a glass of wine was over, Xu Dingguo also had an idea in his mind.

He thought to himself, "He is a civil servant, but why am I afraid of him? This man can't do something wrong, otherwise he will not even have the confidence to speak."

Thinking of this, he said calmly: "Jianlu is on the north shore, staring at my Ming Dynasty. As a general, you must be familiar with the mountains, rivers and geography and prepare for the future."

"What, Lord Ma wants to replace Shige's subordinates to investigate my responsibility for defending the territory?"

Xu Dingguo's lukewarm words made Ma Shaoyu blush. The Ming Dynasty has always had the tradition of being noble and noble and humble, and using his literature to control the military. If this matter was two years ago, he would not dare to talk to the ambassador and civil servants with his courage.

But now, the court is not even more dependent on these vassal states than before. As long as there are a few soldiers in hand, no matter whether they can fight or not, they have great confidence in speaking.

Ma Shaoyu said intimately: "What are you going to do about planning ahead? I think it's probably because I'm tight on my hands again, so I want to get some food and salary around the jurisdiction."

"It's a pity that I am an envoy of the emperor. But I can only ask this question without any pain. It's difficult for state affairs."

Ma Shaoyu only thought that Xu Dingguo left the winter land privately to fight Qiufeng, but he really didn't expect Xu Dingguo to dare to kill the general and plot to treason.

Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Chen Hongfan hurriedly smoothed out and said, "Hi, General Xu is planning ahead for the future and dedicated to the country. Lord Ma also said bluntly. It is all for the country and country of the Ming Dynasty."

"Mr. Ma, since Dorgon detained you and Zuo in Beijing, I have been thinking about it. Thinking of the ambition of Jianlu, I want to plan for my Central Plains. You and Zuo are detained by Jianlu, which is not a good thing."

"Did you escape by yourself when you come back?"

This time, Chen Hongfan, Ma Shaoyu and Zuo Mao went to the Qing Dynasty together. When they came back, Chen Hongfan and Dorgon secretly talked about the poem, but they had agreed in private.

It is necessary to put Ma Shaoyu and Zuo Maodi in Beijing so that you can perform your skills and follow Qin Hui's incident back then.

But when he saw Ma Shaoyu returning safely, he felt very strange.

When Ma Shaoyu heard Chen Hongfan ask about this, he felt a little happy and said, "Mr. Zuo and I were a civil servant. Even if we want to escape, how can we escape? But now that the peace agreement between the two countries has reached, we will naturally come back."

"Has the peace agreement been reached?" Xu Dingguo and Chen Hongfan couldn't help but be shocked and asked together.

Ma Shaoyu bowed to the south and said, "It's all up to the Holy Emperor Hongfu, the Shige Department's strategy. Fortunately, we have fulfilled our mission, and finally we have done this peace talk."

"How...how is it possible?" Chen Hongfan murmured to himself. He ran around to make the Qing Dynasty unified China. Now that the peace agreement has been reached, what is his troubles?

Ma Shaoyu's mission went through ups and downs. Now that the mission has been completed, his complacent expression was beyond words, and he said to Chen Hongfan: "Then Dorgon imprisoned me and Lord Zuo. I said this mission will definitely be useless."

"I didn't expect that a Taoist came to the capital a few days ago, and it was said that he still had some magic power. He gave Dorgon an idea. He seized a loophole in the reply from Shige's army and asked us for 50,000 golden nanmu."

"Dorgon sent us back to send us a message on this ground. He said that if he could send us 50,000 golden nanmu trees with the Northern Dynasties, the two countries would naturally be in love with Qin and Jin. If he could not send us, he would inevitably invade the land of our Jiangnan in the south."

"Mr. Zuo and I kept thinking along the way that although we were both among the enemy, we saved our lives. But this peace talks may not be done. How could we get those 50,000 nanmu trees together?"

"But unexpectedly, as soon as we crossed the Huai River, the ice and snow suddenly melted. What's even more magical is that countless huge nanmu floated from the upper reaches. Isn't this auspicious auspiciousness from the sky, and even heaven bless me with the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty? In this way, the peace talks are naturally for sure?"

Xu Dingguo and Chen Hongfan came from Suizhou to the south, and they really didn't know what happened. At this time, they heard that such changes had happened in just a few days, and they couldn't help but be stunned.

After a long time, Chen Hongfan suddenly remembered an important thing and said, "I just heard that Lord Zuo was also released together? Why do you see only you and Miss Yanlin? Lord Zuo?"

He knew in his heart that Ma Shao was easy to deceive, but Zuo Maodi's eyes did not rub sand. Gao Jie's head was placed in the package beside Li Dingguo, and blood was still dripping from outside. If he met Zuo Maodi, it would be difficult for him to see any flaws.

Zuo Maodi was surrounded by a group of nearly a hundred people. If he and Chen Hongfan were blocked on this building, he would probably be in trouble.

Ma Shaoyu laughed and said, "Mr. Zuo is still on the north bank. Miss Yanlin and I were standing in front. As soon as we crossed the river, the water rose. Countless nanmus floated upstream. Even if there was a boat, we would not be able to cross it for a while."

"I waited by the river for a while, but the nanmu floating upstream continued, as if endless. But this is also a good thing, a great thing! It was my ancestor of the Ming Dynasty that has such auspiciousness."

When Chen Hongfan heard that Zuo Maodi was separated by the north bank of the Huai River, he felt a little relieved. He thought to himself that he could not stay for a long time. The heads in Xu Dingguo's package were always a flaw, so it would be better to leave quickly.

At this moment, the waiter came up with a tray, put the hot dishes fried in the tray one by one on the table, and turned to Xu Ding National Highway:

"Old gentleman, I see that your pig's head is still dripping with blood, and there is still hot water in the small kitchen. Do you want to clean it up for you?"

This waiter is not idle enough to do anything, and his hands and feet are uncomfortable. He really thinks the bloody package is really suspicious.

You should know that after slaughtering the pig, you need to throw it into boiling water and scald it to facilitate hair loss. Only after the hair is cleaned can you cut the flesh and bones be removed in different categories.

I have never heard of cutting off the pig's head and walking around.

At this moment, I saw a man wearing an official uniform sitting here on the second floor. He was a little more courageous, so I deliberately asked this question.

As soon as the waiter said this, the four people upstairs stopped talking. Xu Dingguo and Chen Hongfan looked solemn, thinking in their hearts that this matter might be intrusive.

But after a while, Ma Shaoyu didn't respond.

It was not until the waiter asked the second time that Xu Dingguo said angrily: "Go and go, why bother with nothing? My pig head is of course useful. If you don't ask you, don't come up and get away!"

It turns out that a gentleman is far away from the kitchen. Ma Shaoyu is a scholar and follows the way of a saint. He is simply impatient with the kitchen affairs. He doesn't know how to kill pigs and lose hair.

When he heard the fishy incident in the kitchen, he instinctively wanted to stay away from him and didn't even think about it anywhere else.

After the waiter got down the stairs, Xu Dingguo breathed a sigh of relief. He thought about distorting the topic, so he said, "I just heard that after Lord Ma, you were well taken care of by this girl Wang Yanlin after entering the capital. What happened?"

Ma Shaoyou smiled and said, "This matter is a long story. After we arrived in the capital, we thought we would live in the Honglu Temple of the Ministry of Rites. But we didn't expect that Dorgon actually arranged for us to live in the 'Siyi Pavilion'."

"I think the 'Four Barbarians' are all hosted by envoys from small countries like North Korea and Ryukyu. If it really comes to light, then Jianlu is the barbarian. This dispute over China's orthodox China is extraordinary. How could the envoys of the Ming Dynasty live in the 'Four Barbarians'?"

"The weather was cold at that time, and Jianlu was ruined again. We almost slept on the streets of Beijing. Fortunately, we met this girl Wang Yanlin who helped her with kindness. She had a large scholastic courtyard in Beijing, so our delegation moved to the scholastic courtyard for two nights, and we became familiar with each other after a while."

"This time we returned to the court, and it happened that Miss Wang Yanlin was going to Tongguan to find his younger brother. She happened to be on the same journey with us, so she followed us together."

Xu Dingguo and Chen Hongfan nodded, not taking their heads to heart. Ma Xier next to her felt aroused in her heart and thought to herself: "Oh, it turns out that this girl is going to Tongguan to find her brother. Isn't that just the same way as us?"

"Are there anyone familiar to me on the ground in Tongguan? Maybe in the future, I can also help inquire about her brother's news..."

Ma Shaoyu continued: "I had passed the Huai River, Miss Wang Yanlin went west and we headed east. So I separated. I thought there was less lively along the way. But I didn't expect to meet Lord Chen here, which was a coincidence."

"Although the Northern Dynasty, which was on mission together, experienced twists and turns, the matter was done successfully, and in the end the three of us could go all the way back. It would be a good talk in the future."

Chen Hongfan shook his head and said, "No, I won't go back. I will return to the court to submit an imperial decree in the previous period. When Ma Shiying saw that you and Lord Zuo were detained in the northern country, I was the only one who turned around. He was suspicious and accused me of being the inner support of Jianlu. He had dismissed my official position and asked me to go back to my hometown to farm."

"So I'm just a idle villager now, why are you going back with you?"

Chen Hongfan's words were half true and half false. He was suspected to be a spy and was dismissed from his official position. However, along the way, he also wrote a diary and recorded the three people's mission to the Northern Dynasties in detail.

Of course, there are all kinds of nonsense and slander in the diary. If you go back to Nanjing with Ma Shaoyu to confront each other, you will have to reveal your feelings.

Ma Shaoyu didn't know what was inside, so he insisted on saying, "The peace talks have been completed, this is a great contribution. With my proof of Master Zuo, I am still afraid that Ma Shiying will do what? After going back with us, the truth will come out and the official will be restored."

Chen Hongfan sneered: "The clouds in the court are floating in the sky, and the slander is tyrannical and authoritarian. Even if a peace agreement is reached with the Northern Dynasties, it will be of no use to wait for a temporary stability. I don't think it will take long for the Qing army to go south. It's better if such a court is not guaranteed."

These two people chatted privately, complained, or even were cynical, but they were actually nothing. Unlike the Ming Dynasty, the scholars paid attention to a direct advice, and being punished or even honored when talking about the government.

So Chen Hongfan said it out loud, and everyone was used to scolding Ma Shiying and Ruan Dacheng in private, and they had no scruples. However, he forgot about the problem of his butt.

This time, Ma Shaoyu and Zuo Maodi went to the Qing Dynasty to risk their lives and finally fulfilled their mission. They narrowly agreed to the peace agreement. It can be said that Ma Shaoyu's most proud thing.

In Ma Shaoyu's heart, his mission will be kept in history. For the Ming Dynasty, this is a replica of the "Tanyuan Alliance". In the future, he returned with integrity on the history books and did not disgrace the king's orders. He is also a figure comparable to Su Wu.

But when Chen Hongfan said that, he became a "useless thing".

It is easy to say that he scolded the court, scolded the treacherous ministers, or even scolded the saint emperor for being deceived. But how could Ma Shaoyu accept it by saying that his mission was in vain?

Hearing this, he slapped the table heavily and said, "How can you say that peace talks about such a big thing be of no use? You don't plan for each other!"

Originally, Ma Shaoyu looked down on a warrior like Xu Dingguo next to him. As for Chen Hongfan, Ma Shaoyu was somewhat suspicious. Three people were on missions, but two of them were imprisoned, but Chen Hongfan was released alone.

In the past few months, I was inevitably a little resentful. At this time, I felt even more angry when I saw Chen Hongfan say such words.

Unwilling to sit with these two people again, he stood up angrily and left the table and went to find the other table to sit. Wang Yanlin saw Ma Shaoyu leaving, and also got up.

Chen Hongfan felt that he had a silence and wanted to stop him again. However, Xu Dingguo grabbed him and told him not to do this unnecessary thing.

Xu Dingguo thought, it would be best if the two of them had a breakdown. Hurry up and check out and leave to avoid causing trouble. What kind of alcohol should I drink with him here? I quickly took Gao Jie's head and crossed the river and threw it into the Qingying camp.

Chen Hongfan was pulled by Xu Dingguo for this moment and understood what Xu Dingguo meant. So he bowed to Ma Shaoyu beside him and said hello.

Ma Shaoyu felt angry, and snorted, turning his head aside.

At this moment, something happened.

Not long ago, Kong Ming used the "fixion technique" to fix the four Jianlu guarding Oboi, but did not use the air refraction technique to conceal the few people. He just pushed them into the corner and blocked them with a screen.

It was normal that these four people could not be seen, but Ma Shaoyu was angry with Chen Hongfan and wanted to get along the farther away from them, so he chose the most inclined position to sit.

This time the position changed, I saw a braid behind the screen in the distance.

It would be fine if I just had a braid. Now in this chaotic world, many shameless people shave their hair and refuse to recognize the ancestor. But the braid is still covered with armor, so this can only be Jianlu.

Behind the screen, he was quietly hiding from several Jianlu. Chen Hongfan could not have known that it was obviously he who ambushed him in advance. Maybe he wanted to kill him suddenly in the territory of the Ming army after he and Zuo Maodi crossed the river.

So he said in a trembling voice: "Chen Hongfan...you...you have surrendered to the Qing Dynasty!"

As soon as this sentence was spoken, Chen Hongfan didn't know where he had revealed his flaws, but he also knew that Ma Shaoyu had seen through the treasure.

Xu Dingguo could cross the Huai River directly and go to the Qing camp. But Chen Hongfan still wanted to stay in the Ming Dynasty as an internal supporter. Now that Ma Shaoyu saw through his actions, he could only kill people to silence him.

He said, "No, good birds choose trees to live in. Lord Ma, you can't leave this restaurant today!"

As he said that, he reached out to pull out the saber hiding under the table, removed the scabbard, and rushed straight to Ma Shao.

Ma Shaoyu didn't expect that Chen Hongfan would suddenly kill him. He was a civil servant, how could he be Chen Hongfan's opponent?

You should know that Chen Hongfan even won the Martial Juren decades ago. He was so scared that he took two steps back one after another.
