Summary of the previous chapter: Ma Xiaoquan's care has stabilized Ming Yue's heart, which was originally weak in the modern world, and the color of their hair has also undergone some changes...
Long Er said: "Xiao Wang, just stay here, I have other things to tell you..."
Lu Xiaowang curled his lips and let out a disappointed sigh.
"Okay, Lu Wang, hurry up and get ready. We will set off tomorrow. The master is still waiting for you."
"Hey, okay, I'll go right away"
...
Long Er sighed, summoned a shadow guard and said, "You go with Lu Wang and protect him on the way."
"Boss, do you really want to stay here?"
"Well, that demon's ability is as high as the sky. If I'm not around, you guys might not be able to handle it. When I came back, my master once told me to hold that demon in check. Even if I, Long Er, die, I'm going to kill that demon."
He's dragging him here until the master finishes his work... hum."
"Boss, how long will this delay take?"
Long Er shook his head and said with a wry smile: "At least this year will pass..."
"After this year, there are still five months left. Boss, I want to stay with you..."
Long Er patted the shadow guard on the shoulder: "Okay, this matter has been settled. Long San, although you and I are not brothers, but you took my surname, Long Er, I, Long Er, will treat you
Take responsibility, it's safer on the master's side, don't argue with me anymore, this is an order."
"Well, be careful over there. If you can't stand it anymore, you must survive..."
Long Er sighed: "If you can't bear it anymore, you have to bear it. The master entrusted the Lu family mansion to me. I can't live up to the master's trust!"
...
Before that, Lu Xian learned reliable news about Ma Xiaoquan in Nanyang County from Long Er. Taking advantage of Ma Xiaoquan's absence in Yecheng, Lu Xian hurriedly issued the massacre order, but... due to the execution
In such a hurry, Lu Xian's shadow guard was killed by Ma Xiao, the then head of the Ma family, with the help of Cao Pi's soldiers, who killed more than half of them.
In the spirit of "the most dangerous and safest place", Lu Xian returned to the outskirts of Yecheng again. What he didn't expect was that Ma Zheng, the third son of the Ma family, had successfully attacked the Ma family compound while he was carrying out a large-scale sneak attack.
All of Lu Xian's camps on the outskirts of Yecheng were uncovered.
Ma Zheng was able to successfully crack the camp set up by Lu Xian on the outskirts of Yecheng entirely thanks to his father Ma Xiaoquan's previous lurking efforts.
Most of the shadow guards were dead, and all the camps in the suburbs were taken away. Lu Xian was so angry that he vomited blood several times. He had no choice but to temporarily retreat to another place to wait for help.
...
Ma Zheng's crackdown not only eradicated all of Lu Xian's shadow guard camps on the outskirts of Yecheng, but also surprisingly rescued two people.
One of them Ma Zheng knew was Yuan Fang, but the other Ma Zheng didn't know. He heard Yuan Fang call his father, and asked again, his name was Yang Guang.
Ma Zheng met Yuan Fang when he was very young. In his impression, Yuan Fang was a handsome young man. But now Yuan Fang's legs have been crippled and he has lost the ability to walk. He is also very haggard, except for those bright eyes.
God, he no longer has his former glory.
Yuan Fang was very calm. After seeing Ma Zheng, he smiled and praised Ma Zheng for growing up. He also asked Ma Zheng to help his father wash his body.
Ma Zheng had been outside and had a military life. Ma Zheng thought he had seen a lot of things like injuries and death, but when he saw Yang Guang's condition, Ma Zheng was also shocked because...
....He is so miserable...
"Uncle Yuan Fang..." Ma Zheng exhaled and said, "Uncle Yuan Fang, this old man... how did he survive and live for such a long time...
..”
Yuan Fang looked at his father Yang Guang calmly and said: "Because I have faith in my heart, I can survive. Similarly, your uncle Yuan Fang and I also have the same persistent faith in my heart as my father."
"Uncle Yuan Fang, where does your belief come from? Can you tell me conveniently?"
Yang Guang, who had been silent until now, suddenly interrupted: "It's from Ma Xiaoquan, well, he should be your father, right?"
Ma Zheng nodded and said respectfully: "Yes, old man, do you know my father?"
Yang Guang chuckled: "Me? I don't know, it's a miracle that I, an old and immortal person who was cut into a human stick, can survive until now, haha..."
Yuan Fang smiled and said: "Ma Zheng, go back first. I will tell you everything when you get back. By the way, is the head of the Ma family still Ma Xiaoquan?"
Ma Zheng shook his head: "No, it's my brother Ma Xiao."
"Eh? Why isn't it you?"
Ma Zheng said with a smile: "I am the third son, my brother is the eldest son, and my brother is better than me!"
Yuan Fang chuckled: "Oh, that's it, haha..." At this point, Yuan Fang had no intention of continuing.
Ma Zheng didn't bother to ask. The rules set by his ancestors about ordering elders and younger ones were not something that a young man like him could change at his own whim.
...
When the group of people returned to the Ma family compound, Ma Xiao had already prepared a banquet and was waiting for the return of his third brother.
Seeing Ma Zheng leading two disabled people, Ma Xiao couldn't help but be stunned for a moment and asked Ma Zheng: "Third brother, who are these two?"
Ma Zheng smiled and said: "Brother, do you still remember Uncle Yuan Fang?"
"Uncle Yuan Fang?" Ma Xiao was stunned for a moment and then said, "You mean Yuan Fang? The Yuan Fang that dad has been looking for?"
Ma Zheng nodded.
"I remember, of course I remember. Your eldest brother and I have also met Yuan Fang. Third brother, let's find someone to take care of them first. This..."
Ma Zheng smiled and said: "Don't worry, brother, I have already given the order."
After Yuan Fang and Yang Guang left, Ma Zhengdao said: "Brother, Uncle Yuan Fang has a father, that old man."
"Father?" Ma Xiao was confused, "I remember my father once said that Yuan Fang is an orphan. Where can he have a father? Has he found his biological father?"
Ma Zheng shook his head: "No, that old man's surname is Yang Mingguang."
"Yang Guang?" Ma Xiao squinted his eyes and thought for a moment, "Dad once said about this person... Well, but dad is not here... Third brother, let's ask your mother...
..."
The two brothers came to the door of Madam Hua Yuexin's bedroom and gently knocked on the door.
"Who is it?" A soft female voice came from the bedroom.
Ma Zheng said respectfully: "Mother, it's me, Zheng'er, my eldest brother and I have something to ask mother."
With a creaking sound, the bedroom door opened. It was Hua Yuexin who opened the door herself.
After experiencing Lu Xian's sneak attack, although Hua Yuexin looked calm on the surface, in fact, her heart was already in chaos.
Now that Prime Minister Ma Xiaoquan is not around, Hua Yuexin urgently needs some reassuring news.
"Mother" Ma Zheng walked to his mother and called out softly. Ma Xiao also bowed respectfully: "Mother Yue!"
Hua Yuexin came back to her senses, stood up on her tiptoes and patted her son's shoulder. Then she helped Ma Xiao straighten his collar and said, "Xiao'er, Zheng'er, what's the matter with you?"
Ma Zheng said slowly: "Mom, Uncle Yuan Fang has been found!"
"Yuan Fang?" Hua Yuexin was stunned for a moment, "Yuan Fang found it? Where did he find it?"
Ma Xiao said: "Mother Yue, it's a long story. At the same time as Yuan Fang found it, we also found an old man named Yang Guang. Mother Yue, do you know this man named Yang Guang? Or have you heard of it?"
Did dad mention it?"
"Yang Guang?" Hua Yuexin frowned slightly, thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Well, your father did mention this person named Yang Guang."
The two brothers looked at each other with joy on their faces. Ma Zhengdao said: "Mom, what did dad say?"
Hua Yuexin said: "Well, your father didn't say much at the time, but he mentioned another person... uh, yes, that person's name was Yang Liang, and his nickname... should be Tianming.
.....Yes, that’s Yang Liang.”
"Yang Liang?" The two brothers looked happy.
"Xiao'er, Zheng'er, do you know Yang Liang?"
Ma Xiao nodded and said: "I know him. He was an official under the King of Wei, but he was an official in water conservancy. He even came here on the day of the third brother's wedding, as if he had something to discuss with his father, but then he didn't know why.
, left again..."
Hua Yuexin said: "Well, then you inform Yang Liang about this and ask him to come to the Ma family compound!"
"yes!"
...
After walking out of Hua Yuexin's bedroom, Ma Zheng said to his eldest brother Ma Xiao: "Brother, I think I have to go find Yang Liang personally about this matter."
Ma Xiao nodded: "That's what I have in mind. Third brother, I think you should set off today without further ado. Who knows what Mr. Lu has planned next."
Ma Zheng hummed and turned around. After walking a few steps, Ma Xiao suddenly stopped Ma Zheng.
Turning around, Ma Zheng looked at his brother in confusion: "Brother, what else can you do?"
Ma Xiao thought for a moment and said, "Third brother, work hard. The future of the Ma family depends entirely on you."
Ma Zheng smiled and shook his head: "I feel most at ease when my eldest brother is here, haha."
Ma Xiao sighed, looked at Ma Zheng's disappearing back, and said to himself: "The eldest brother also wanted to contribute his meager effort to this family, but the eldest brother made an agreement with the prince Cao Pi. Third brother, the Ma family
My future will be left to you, big brother..."
...
Due to several job adjustments, Yang Liang's official position was changed from the original paddy field officer to the current water affairs officer.
Yecheng is close to the Zhang River, and the Zhang River has been plagued by disasters all year round. As one of the water affairs officials, Yang Liang has to do a lot of work every day, especially in the past few months, the Zhang River has burst its banks one after another, which has made Yang Liang very upset.
Headache.
At night, Yang Liang was studying the water conservancy map. Suddenly he heard someone knocking on the door. He went to open the door and took a look. He was a little surprised and said: "You are..."
