Chapter 389 You are not qualified to talk to me about conditions!
Marrying Yuan Fang!
Ma Teng's body shook, and suddenly, it seemed as if there was a bright future in front of him, and he saw new hope.
The fists were clenched, and the thoughts flew, and the hesitation on Ma Teng's face became increasingly faded.
After a while, Ma Teng looked at Ma Chao: "Chaoer, Xiaozhi suggested surrendering to Yuan Fang for his father. What do you think?"
Ma Chao's face was as gloomy as iron, and he was breathing heavily in his nostrils. He was obviously reluctant to surrender to Yuan Fang.
But Ma Chao is not a completely brave and unscrupulous man. He naturally recognizes the situation and knows that the Ma family is bothering internal and external troubles, and the situation is hopeless. If he does not want to suffer the disaster of extermination of the clan, surrendering to Yuan Fang is the only way to survive.
After a while of silence, Ma Chao took a deep breath and bowed and said silently: "I have no objection, it depends on my father and coach."
Ma Teng breathed a long sigh. The eldest son Ma Chao did not object, so he had nothing to be afraid of, and the pressure in his heart suddenly decreased by half.
"Public platform, what do you think?" Ma Teng turned his gaze again and turned to his planner.
In Ma Teng's view, Chen Gong should be the one who firmly opposes surrender to Yuan, and he is ready to convince Chen Gong.
Unexpectedly, Chen Gong only smiled coldly: "Since the leader has a determination in his heart, what is the importance of Gong's opinion? The leader will make decisions on his own."
Chen Gong didn't object?
Ma Teng was quite surprised. Although he could hear that Chen Gong was secretly dissatisfied in his tone, Chen Gong did not object after all, which was enough to make Ma Teng breathe a sigh of relief.
Without any burden, Ma Teng decided on the spot to offer marriage conditions to Yuan Fang and then surrender to Yuan Fang.
At this moment, Ma Teng suddenly remembered something extremely important, and his face immediately became embarrassed again.
He remembered that his daughter and Zhang Xiu were still engaged.
Although Yunlu has now fallen into the hands of Yuan Fang and the marriage has become vain, the engagement between the Ma family and the Zhang family has not been officially terminated. If we marry Yuan Fang in this way, wouldn’t it betrayal and untrustworthy?
However, at such a time, Ma Teng couldn't speak and proposed to Zhang Xiu to terminate the engagement.
Just when Ma Teng was in a dilemma, his personal soldiers hurried in and presented a letter that Zhang Xiu had just sent to Ma Teng.
Ma Teng opened the letter with suspicion and smiled with relief.
"Is the leader so happy? Could it be that Zhang Xiu's letter? He wanted to terminate the engagement with Miss Yunlu?" Fa Zheng guessed.
Ma Teng Yiqi: "That's true, how did Xiaozhi guess?"
"Zhang Xiu is the most capricious. When he saw the leader's strength, he took the initiative to make a move. Now, he saw that the leader's strength was greatly damaged. It was also expected that he would actively propose to terminate the engagement and alienate the relationship." Fa Zheng said sarcastically.
I see.
Ma Teng sighed for a while, then he said happily: "It's good that this is the case. Since Zhang Xiu took the initiative to terminate the engagement, I won't have anything to make things difficult for me. This matter is settled."
At this moment, Ma Teng compiled a letter to state the conditions for his marriage and replied to Yuan Fang's persuasion.
Fa Zheng volunteered again, willing to take Ma Teng's letter to Chang'an in person, meet Yuan Fang, and negotiate conditions for Ma Teng to surrender.
At the same time, Ma Teng was afraid of Yuan Fang's wisdom, fearing that Yuan Fang would take advantage of the negotiations to lead his army to raid Chen Cang.
In order to prevent Yuan Fang, when Ma Teng sent Fa Zheng again, he ordered Ma Chao and Ma Dai to lead another 10,000 troops to the east to guard the city with Pang De to protect Chen Cang.
All the things were ordered, and the military discussion ended, and everyone dispersed.
Chen Gong also said goodbye and left. Before leaving the lobby, he looked back at Ma Teng, who was relieved, and a trace of darkness suddenly flashed across the corner of his mouth.
"Ma Teng, since you insist on surrendering to that boy Yuan Fang, don't blame me Chen Gong for being cruel and ruthless, hum!"
Turning around and leaving with hatred.
...
A few days later, Chang'an City.
"In the Jiangdong side, Sun Ce has sent veteran Cheng Pu to assist his younger brother Sun Quan and lead an army of 10,000 to capture Jiaozhou."
"Yizhou, Liu Zhang was afraid of Cao Cao's troops and had all the soldiers from Chengdu and went to Jiangzhou to block Cao's army. The two armies confronted each other on the front line of Jiangzhou. Liu Zhang lost one after another, and the situation was getting worse and worse."
Yuan Fang sat high on the top, savoring the wine, and listening to Zhuge Liang's latest information about Cao Sun.
"Although Jiaozhou has a million household registration, it is located in a remote location. Even if Sun Ce successfully won it, his strength will be limited. However, Cao Cao's military force is very sharp, and I'm afraid Liu Zhang will not be able to hold on for long. It seems that we have to speed up and destroy the Xiliang army as soon as possible."
Guo Jia was drinking while analyzing the situation.
Yuan Fang nodded slightly and murmured: "It has been a few days since Ma Yunlu's letter was sent. Ma Teng should have responded."
As soon as he finished speaking, a Yi Sensui entered and reported that Ma Teng sent an envoy Fa Zheng to come and was seeking a meeting outside the city.
Guo Jia laughed: "The king's words are really effective. Just say Ma Teng, Ma Teng will arrive."
"Come in now, Fazheng." Yuan Fang smiled and said with a smile.
Not long after, the footsteps sounded, but when the gate was in the direction, Fa Zheng calmly entered.
"The envoy of the General of Xiliang Horse, Fa Zheng, pay homage to His Highness, King Qi."
He is neither humble nor arrogant, calm and composed, and is worthy of being the Fa Xiaozhi who assisted Liu Bei in history to take over Chuan.
As soon as Fang met, Yuan Fang admired the Dharma in front of him very much, and wished he could immediately bring such a talent under his command and use it for our Yuan Fang.
"I heard the name of Fa Xiaozhi for a long time, and I am so lucky to see him today." Yuan Fang personally went down the stairs and welcomed Fa Zheng into the lobby, and asked him to give him a seat.
Yuan Fang's style of respecting the wise and humble men made Fa Zheng quite flattered, and he couldn't help but say wonder: "Zheng is just a small person in the level of enlightenment. Has His Highness the King of Qi heard of Fa Zheng's name?"
"Xiaozhi, you are too humble. If Fa Xiaozhi had not provided advice, how could Ma Teng dominate Guanlong for several years? If Xiaozhi were all small people, then there would be no big people in the world."
Yuan Fang knew that the Fazheng in history was not valued by Liu Zhang, so he decided to lead Liu Bei into Sichuan. It can be seen that this man is talented and quite proud.
Yuan Fang had the style of being polite and inferior, and now he knew the Dharma and the nature of the Dharma were correct. How could he not appreciate the Dharma?
"I didn't expect that the King of Qi was so respectful to me and Fa Zheng so much. No wonder he could sweep across the Central Plains in a few years..."
While secretly admiring, the two of them had already separated the host and the guest.
"I believe he has received the message from Miss Yunlu to Ma Teng. Xiaozhi is here, so he should have come to reply. I wonder if Ma Teng will surrender or not?"
After making polite decisions, Yuan Fang did not beat around the bush and asked questions directly.
Fa Zheng coughed dryly and bowed, "Your Highness King Qi is generous and willing to ignore past grudges and accept our general surrender. General Ma feels his highness's demeanor and is naturally willing to surrender to Your Highness."
Ma Teng, I am willing to surrender!
Yuan Fang glanced at Guo Jia, and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes. He thought to himself that the plan to summon surrendered by Guo Jia did indeed work.
"But, my general has another condition, I hope your highness can agree." Fa Zheng suddenly changed his mind.
Conditions, Ma Teng actually dares to raise the conditions?
Yuan Fang smiled and said in a deep voice: "What conditions does Ma Teng want to propose?"
"That's right. General Ma wanted to betroth his little daughter Yun Lu to His Highness. The two families formed the Qin and Jin dynasties. I wonder what your highness wants?" Fa Zheng said with a smile.
Yuan Fang's expression moved and couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this condition.
Immediately, he understood Ma Teng’s intention.
Ma Teng was worried about his promises he had given him, so he wanted to use marriage to ensure his position under Yuan Fang after Ma Teng surrendered.
When Guo Jia heard this, he winked at Yuan Fang repeatedly and signaled Yuan Fang to respond quickly.
Yuan Fang's eyebrows were fixed and he said coldly: "If I guessed correctly, Zhang Xiu might have been alienated from Ma Teng. Han Sui was also eyeing him and was about to seize the position of Ma Teng's leader. My 200,000 soldiers are here. Ma Teng is already in trouble internally and externally and has no choice. Why should he negotiate terms with me!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Fa Zheng's expression changed, and Guo Jia's face showed surprise.
By the way, Ma Teng offered no excessive conditions. In order to pacify the enemy in Guanzhong as soon as possible, Yuan Fang accepted this political marriage and it would be okay to marry Ma Yunlu.
What made Yuan Fang unhappy was not the conditions that Ma Teng offered, but the conditions that Ma Teng opened itself.
Now Yuan Fangxiong has 200,000 soldiers, and has an overwhelming advantage over Ma Teng. He can surrender Ma Teng and give Ma Teng a way out. This is already generous enough to Ma Teng.
Ma Teng surrendered without merging, but even made a small plan and talked about the conditions with Yuan Fang, which itself was a challenge to Yuan Fang's strength.
Therefore, today, no matter what conditions Ma Teng proposed, Yuan Fang would flatly refuse.
"The King of Qi is really domineering and we don't even ask for the conditions."
Fa Zheng also looked dark and sneered: "However, as far as I know, Cao Cao will soon conquer Yizhou, and the King of Qi should also want to take Guanzhong as soon as possible to prevent Cao Cao from annexing Yizhou. Although our Ma family was seriously injured, there were still tens of thousands of cavalry. The King of Qi refused our conditions. Isn't he afraid that we would resist to the death, delaying the time when His Highness unified Guanzhong and allowing Cao Cao to swallow Yizhou smoothly?"
Fazheng is worthy of being Fazheng, and he can actually see through some of Yuan Fang's thoughts.
"Are you threatening me?" Yuan Fang's sword-brow flickered, and his murderous intent was born in the eagle's eyes.
In an instant, Fa Zheng felt an invisible chill, covering his back.
"You are powerful without anger, what a strong aura!"
Fa Zheng forced his fear and raised his head and said, "The King of Qi should know that once Cao Cao takes over Yizhou and Sun Ce takes over Jiaozhou, your highness will probably be destroyed in his lifetime, and if your highness feels that he is threatening His Highness, he can understand it this way."
Threat, threat again.
Since the time of surrendering to Yuan’s mansion, Yuan Fang has been constantly threatened, threatened by the father and son of the Yuan family, threatened by Liu Bei, Tao Qian, Gongsun Zan, and Cao Cao…
It was precisely in order to get rid of these threats that Yuan just rebelled and killed those who threatened and oppressed him, or were frightened by the news.
Today, Yuan Fang is in the Central Plains. As the King of Qi, he uses the emperor to command the princes to shock the world. How can he be threatened again!
