Summary of the previous chapter: As the head of the family, Ma Xiaoquan gradually realized the pressure of the family's heavy burden. Therefore, Ma Xiaoquan not only wanted his family to become a wealthy family, but also wanted to enter the noble class. As for Yuan Fang's alliance, Ma Xiaoquan decided to take
Let’s talk to him later...
On the third day and the last day of the Ma family's moving banquet, Cao Cao came again.
After a few polite words with Ma Xiaoquan, Cao Cao asked: "Master Shangxian, what is your family like?"
Ma Xiaoquan knew the meaning of Cao Cao's question, thought for a moment, and said hehe: "Same as your son, hehe..."
Cao Cao was stunned for a moment and chuckled: "Master Shangxian, what position do I hold now? My son is not as good as me, he? Can't do it?"
Ma Xiaoquan hugged Cao Cao and whispered: "Xiao Cao, tell me honestly, are you willing to be the emperor?"
When Cao Cao heard this, he was startled and shook his head quickly: "No, no, absolutely not!"
As Cao Cao spoke, he struggled again and again. Ma Xiaoquan grabbed Cao Cao and cursed in a low voice: "I call you mom, I'm just asking casually, what are you so excited about?"
Cao Cao rolled his eyes, took a long breath, and smiled: "Cao Cao knew that Master Shangxian was joking with Cao Cao, hehe..."
During the dinner, Ma Xiaoquan made an excuse to come out for some fresh air because he had eaten a lot in the past two days. Just a few steps out, a dark figure suddenly jumped out and stood in front of Ma Xiaoquan.
Ma Xiaoquan was startled and took a closer look. It turned out to be Cao Cao.
"Damn you, if you don't eat properly in the living room at night, why are you running out?"
Cao Cao stepped forward quickly, put his right index finger in front of his mouth to make a whisper, and whispered: "Master Shangxian, can you take a step to speak?"
"Huh?" Ma Xiaoquan glanced sideways at Cao Cao, "Is something wrong?"
Cao Cao didn't say anything, but looking at his anxious look, it seemed that something was really going on.
The two of them walked to a dark place. Cao Cao looked around to make sure there were no outsiders around, and then he whispered: "Master Shangxian, you asked me during the day if I wanted to be the emperor...
...actually...I think..."
At this point, Cao Cao hesitated for a long time without saying anything. However, Cao Cao's interpretation of the words made it clear to him.
Ma Xiaoquan nodded and said, "Oh, you want to be the emperor, right?"
Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, raised his head, and nodded vigorously.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk..." Ma Xiaoquan shook his head and made a tsk-tsk sound.
Cao Cao immediately said nervously: "Why, Master Shangxian, is there something wrong?"
Ma Xiaoquan looked Cao Cao up and down. Although his vision was not clear in the dark, he had been in contact with Cao Cao for a long time. Even in the dark, Ma Xiaoquan could still recall Cao Cao's appearance and appearance.
According to modern standards, Cao Cao's height is just over 1.6 meters. Ma Xiaoquan is not that tall either, only 1.78 meters tall. However, when the 1.6-meter Cao Cao stood next to Ma Xiaoquan, he immediately looked even smaller.
; Furthermore, Cao Cao's appearance is not that good. When Cao Cao conquered Ye City a few days ago, he released a famous scholar named Cui Yan. This Cui Yan was handsome and masculine in appearance, tall in stature, and his character was not to mention.
Cao Cao secretly compared with Cui Yan and found that except for his own skills, he was inferior to Cui Yan in every aspect.
"Lord Immortal?"
"Oh" Ma Xiaoquan came back to his senses and chuckled, "Xiao Cao, not everyone can be the emperor. I think you, kid, can be the prime minister at most and get a Jizhou Mu or something like that."
Well, as for the emperor, if you really want to, if it doesn’t work, just leave it to your son..."
Cao Cao is not stupid. Now that Master Shangxian has said so, Cao Cao is relieved.
After thinking for a while, Cao Cao smiled and said: "Then I know, I've figured it out, haha..."
Ma Xiaoquan patted Cao Cao on the shoulder: "Xiao Cao, it's not your fault that you are short and ugly. Of course, it cannot be your father or grandfather's fault. These are all innate... But, you have to
Think about it, you, Cao Cao, have what others don’t. For example, with your current status, who can compare with you today? Of course, even if others have it, they are not as good as you. For example, your kid is now married to yi7
I have a wife, ah, look at me, I am only seven...oh no, six wives, right? So, you are much better than me in this regard...
.”
Cao Cao kept nodding his head while listening to Ma Xiaoquan's deception. Indeed, as Master Shangxian said, Cao Cao was indeed outstanding in some aspects.
Cao Cao is not young anymore. From the time he was born to now, he is only one year short of fifty years old. Although Cao Cao understands that Master Shangxian is comforting him and coaxing him like a child, Cao Cao is also happy because he is with him.
In the more than ten years that Master Shangxian has been in contact with him, Master Shangxian has helped him more than once. What makes Cao Cao even more happy is that Master Shangxian said before helping him that he would not participate in the world's disputes. In other words,
Although Master Shangxian is not Cao Cao's counselor in name, in fact, Cao Cao has regarded Master Shangxian as one of his confidant counselors.
Ma Xiaoquan didn't know what Cao Cao was thinking now. When he saw that Cao Cao was silent, he patted Cao Cao on the back again: "Okay, that's all I have to say, you kid, take care of yourself!"
After that, Ma Xiaoquan left without looking back, carrying his hands on his back.
In the darkness, Cao Cao still stood motionless. As for what he was thinking now, no one knew...
Ma Xiaoquan returned to the banquet, and all the nobles immediately stood up to greet him and toast him. This time, Ma Xiaoquan was not like the previous two days, pushing every cup. This time, Ma Xiaoquan accepted all comers and drank them all according to the orders.
.
Time passed by one by one, and late at night, most of the nobles were already drunk and staggering.
Ma Xiaoquan rubbed his swollen head and stood up unsteadily.
Beside him, Liang Long saw his master getting up and quickly stepped forward to support him: "Master, are you okay?"
Ma Xiaoquan smiled bitterly twice and patted Diplodocus on the shoulder: "Help me back to the room!"
"Master, whose room are you going to?"
Ma Xiaoquan rolled his eyes at Liang Long and said feebly: "Your master and I are already like this, how can we still do that?"
Liang Long blushed: "I know!"
...
After Liang Long helped Ma Xiaoquan into the room and covered him with quilt, Liang Long still felt uneasy, so he secretly ran to the door of Qing Yi's room and knocked on the door: "Is Mrs. Seven asleep?"
"No! It's Diplodocus? It's so late. What's the matter? The dinner is over?"
Liang Long nodded: "Reply to Madam Seven, it's over, the master has been helped back to the room by me."
"Okay, I understand, you should go down and rest too!"
Diplodocus bowed and said respectfully: "Yes!"
As soon as Liang Long left, the door opened with a creak from the inside.
Qing Yi slowly walked out of the room, shaking her head and came to Ma Xiaoquan's bedroom door.
After entering the house, Qing Yi found Ma Xiaoquan lying on the bed and moaning.
Qing Yi frowned, moved forward, turned Ma Xiaoquan's face to the side first, and then took off his husband's clothes, pants and shoes from the outside in.
By the time Ma Xiaoquan, the Tsing Yi general, had tidied up, it was already half a stick of incense time.
Qing Yi gently wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve. Just as he was about to go out, he heard a rustling sound coming from outside the door.
Immediately afterwards, the door was slowly pushed open.
Qing Yi was shocked and quickly hid behind the screen.
"Huh!" At this moment, a breeze blew from outside the house. The breeze was mixed with a hint of sweet feminine scent.
Qing Yi frowned and thought: Woman?
There was a soft "bang" and the door closed again.
The candles in the room were not blown out because of the breeze just now. On the contrary, when there was a slight breeze, the candles burned even more vigorously than before.
By the candlelight, Qing Yi discovered that there was a woman standing in front of her husband's bed.
Because of the screen, Qing Yi could only see the outline of the woman's figure.
Judging from the outline, this woman's figure should be very good.
Qing Yi narrowed her eyes and thought to herself: Could it be the woman from the night before yesterday? Why did she come back?
The woman gently moved Ma Xiaoquan's face towards her. At this moment, Ma Xiaoquan exhaled, and suddenly, the strong smell of alcohol hit his face.
If it were Qing Yi, she would have dodged for a while, but this woman not only did not dodge, but instead kissed Ma Xiaoquan tightly and blocked Ma Xiaoquan's mouth.
Qing Yi was stunned, thinking that this woman was going to poison her husband, but then she thought that since her husband drank her own blood, he would not be poisoned to death, so Qing Yi soon relaxed again.
The woman kissed Ma Xiaoquan for a while before letting go.
After letting go, the woman gently circled her lips with her little tongue. Then, she slowly took out a handkerchief from her sleeve pocket and gently wiped her lips.
"Come out, I know you are behind the screen!"
Qing Yi was shocked and touched her waist alertly, only to realize that she didn't bring any weapons.
"Don't worry, I won't do anything to you. On the contrary, I want to thank you. Come out and stop hiding."
Qing Yi rolled her eyes, chuckled, and slowly walked out from behind the screen.
"Who are you?" Qing Yi asked the woman.
The woman chuckled and turned around slowly.
Qing Yi looked at the woman's appearance and stopped talking.
The same goes for the woman. She carefully looked at Qing Yi's appearance and body shape. At the same time, she kept mumbling in her mouth.
"What are you talking to yourself about? Who are you?"
The woman smiled and said softly: "You don't need to be so clear about who I am, but I just said that I want to thank you very much!"
