The Book of Heaven

Chapter 316
As Liu Xu said, the imperial decree came almost one after another, but the content was more than what Liu Xu reported. It not only pardoned Ma Zheng's crimes, but also rewarded a lot of things to show the royal family's respect for Ma Zheng. Zheng has been compensated by "unjust injustice" these days.

Of course, except for Ma Zheng himself, no one will think that this is the royal family's compensation for Ma Zheng, but only that it is the emperor's grace. After all, the royal family's face is still very important.

With Liu Xu, the current princess, here, there is no need for Ma Zheng to worry about dismissing those angels. Even Zhuge Yashan will secretly send some "local specialties" to the angels, and only Princess Qingping can wave her hand. , Let these angels finish their work quickly, go back wherever they came from, don't stand here as an eyesore.

What surprised Ma Zheng more was the harmony between Zhuge Mingyue and Ying Gu.Without the slightest sarcasm, before the two women met, neither Liu Xu nor Zhuge Yashan would have thought that Zhuge Mingyue and Ying Gu would have a common language.

Of course, Ma Zheng was even more surprised, especially when he saw Ying Gu sweetly calling Zhuge Mingyue "sister", his only thought was to worry whether Zhuge Mingyue would be sold by Ying Gu, and he would have to help Ying Gu count the number later. money.

In fact, this is because Ma Zheng thinks too much. As a future traveler, his ideas in various aspects are still very different from this era. But deep down in my heart, I still don't think that this possibility exists. Even if it exists, it is the result of compromises from all sides, and even peace can only appear after several wars.

However, Ma Zheng's biggest mistake on this issue is to ignore the normal thinking of people in different eras.

Whether it is the clever Zhuge Mingyue or the cunning Yinggu, they are still women in essence, so they will naturally be influenced by the thoughts of this era.I learned that in their opinion, it is wrong to disrespect the royal family, it is wrong not to honor parents, it is wrong not to abide by virtue, but it is definitely not wrong for a man to have three wives and four concubines!

After all, women only give birth once a year at most, and when a man has enough social status and influence, the problem that needs to be solved urgently is to spread the branches and leaves for the family. The mission is that only by marrying more wives can you have more children, ensure the quantity and quality of offspring, and continue the glory of a family.

Ma Zheng was wrong here, that's why he was surprised that the relationship between Zhuge Mingyue and Ying Gu would heat up quickly after they knew each other for less than half a day.

It should be said that the two women are very smart. As the first batch of women around Ma Zheng, they chose alliance instead of confrontation. In this way, no matter how many wives Ma Zheng will marry in the future, at least their status in the family will not be shaken. , which is also a trick.

What is needed to survive in human society is wisdom, and it just so happens that Ying Gu and Zhuge Mingyue are both smart women.

For Zhuge Mingyue, the importance of Ma Zheng is self-evident. As for Gu Ying, maybe she is half influenced by her mother and half really values ​​Ma Zheng.

Anyway, Ma Zheng was about to go back home.

It was not Ma Zheng's original intention to be forced to go away this time. Even though the accident made Ma Zheng's martial arts advance by leaps and bounds all the way to become a natural master, it also made Ma Zheng know what it means to be "beyond the sky, there are people beyond people".

The Zhuge family only raised six warriors like Duan Changtian, but now Ma Zheng is curious, wondering how many more the Ma family and the royal family have.

This time Ma Zheng left without taking Ma Zhao with him, because Duan Changtian had agreed to "take care" of Ma Zhao for Ma Zheng for a period of time.Although Duan Changtian is not a warrior who is proficient in the cultivation methods of the outer sect, but one method can master all methods. Before Ma Zheng can't find a real suitable master for Ma Zhao, it is not a bad thing to hand it over to Duan Changtian for training. What's more, Ma Zheng is already engaged to Zhuge Mingyue, Zhuge Mingyue can't go with Ma Zheng this time, so he must keep someone by Zhuge Mingyue's side to show Ma Zheng's importance to Zhuge Mingyue.

Separation is always difficult, Zhuge Mingyue sent Ma Zheng away with red eyes, and Ma Zhao followed Ma Zheng's request, guarding Zhuge Mingyue every step of the way.

"Miss, did he say when he will come back and marry late?"

Zhuge Xingxing looked at his young lady's red eyes from crying, and couldn't help asking.

"Xing Xing." Zhuge Mingyue glared, Zhuge Xing Xing immediately begged for mercy, "Yes, the servant is wrong, he should be called uncle."

"It's good to know!" Zhuge Mingyue didn't let Zhuge Xingxing go, but reminded her: "Our Zhuge family is not happy to do things in person, and since we are engaged, I will be born as a Ma family and die as a Ma family ghost." , if you don't want to marry me into the Ma family, then I will arrange to marry you later."

Hearing Zhuge Mingyue's indifferent voice, Zhuge Xingxing was completely panicked at this moment. He begged Zhuge Mingyue for mercy and winked at Ma Zhao. Unfortunately, Ma Zhao had no plans to join forces at all. As long as Zhuge Mingyue didn't open his mouth, he would even Can be used as a stake for a day.

The reason why Zhuge Mingyue suddenly became strict with Zhuge Xingxing was not because Ma Zhao was by her side, but because Ma Zheng was not by her side, on the contrary, she needed to be more careful, and must not cause future conflicts between the two of them because of some omissions in details. After all, the conflict in her relationship is not only related to the happiness of her Zhuge Mingyue's life, but also related to the future rise and fall of Zhuge's family.

On the other side, Ma Zheng had a headache when he was on the road with Liu Xu and Ying Gu.

No matter how much Liu Xu emphasizes the relationship between her and Ma Zheng's father, it can't change the difference in their identities, so it is absolutely impossible for Ma Zheng to squeeze into the carriage with Liu Xu and Ying Gu, so he can only choose to accompany the handlebars. In the same way, he staggered to the northwest.

According to the route, the carriage must first go to Chengdu City, and then return to Tianshui from Chengdu City.

The bumps along the road made Ma Zheng's butt hurt. Sitting cross-legged at the end of the day was torture. He also reminded Ma Zheng to quickly find a way to buy himself a short-footed Dian horse. Although this horse runs slowly, But the advantage lies in its short stature, low center of gravity, and good endurance, which is suitable for the undulating mountain roads in Bashu.

Chatting with Liu Xu and Ying Gu across the carriage shed was the only thing to pass the time on the road, and when the three of them were chatting, Ma Zheng deliberately brought the topic up to Duan Changtian.

"Why, you are about to enter the innate realm, and you just want to eat one bite and become fat?" Liu Xu asked in the carriage.

"That's not what it means. This person should have a goal, right? Hey, I'm afraid I can't find another genius like me who is less than 20 years old."

Ma Zheng's words are not bragging, there are many talents in this world, but there should be no other talents under the age of 20.

"Don't be too complacent, for a true warrior, innate talent is barely a start."

Liu Xu's words, like a basin of cold water, ruthlessly fell on Ma Zheng's head.

"I beg Your Highness to guide me."

Slightly taken aback, Ma Zheng said slightly unconvinced.
