The Horse of the Three Kingdoms Treads the World

() Although the Drunk House covers an area of ​​ten acres, there are only seven such courtyards inside.In addition to the large size of these courtyards, which took up a lot of space, the trees and forests between the courtyards also took up a lot of space.Rows of cypress trees are planted around the courtyard where Ma Yue and the others live. Even in such a midwinter season, the branches and leaves of these trees are evergreen, making the surrounding area appear more clean.

But in this way, Ma Yue and others who were outside the courtyard were unable to observe the surrounding situation.However, this did not bother Ma Chao's eyes and ears. After careful inspection, he found that there were people hiding in those seemingly peaceful forests, and there were quite a few of them.This made him nervous, and he put his hand on the long sword at his waist.

Ma Yue naturally trusted his brother's judgment, but he didn't feel nervous like him, but smiled and said: "It's okay, I'm sorry they don't have the courage to dare to attack us. Brother, let's go and meet them first , and see what they have to say."

"Okay!" Ma Chao nodded, he was still very confident in his own martial arts, as long as the opponent didn't use a bow and crossbow, he was enough to protect his brother from harm.

The young man looked at the two brothers worriedly at first, but now that they had decided to go in, he was relieved, gently opened the courtyard door for them, and then made a gesture of please.The two walked into the yard, followed the stone-paved path, and soon came to the entrance of a hall made entirely of pine wood. At this time, the sound of the music inside was already clearer.

Ma Yue didn't wait for the boy to come over, he raised his hand and pushed the closed hall door open.The wooden door made a crisp creaking sound, mixed with the music, which was extraordinarily harsh, and immediately alarmed the people inside, more than ten people looked up at the door at the same time, and the sound of the music also stopped for a while.

"Continue!" Lin Lie, who was sitting on the main seat, just glanced at Brother Ma Yue, and ordered in a deep voice, and then the music started again, but no one greeted Brother Ma Yue.The people sitting in the hall didn't seem to see anyone coming in, they just closed their eyes while drinking and listened to the melodious music flowing from the zither in the musician's hand.

Ma Chao frowned when he saw this. These people were so rude. This reminded him of what happened when the three of them went to Linjiawu half a year ago. The Lin family also behaved in the same way.Just when Ma Chao wanted to sarcastically say something to them, Ma Yue tugged at his sleeve, motioning him to sit down first before speaking.

In this hall with a radius of more than 20 feet, there are only seven guests except for the five musicians who are kneeling in the middle and playing music. Therefore, there are still many seats here, and the Ma Yue brothers just picked two at random. Neighbors sat down.Ma Yue even took the wine glass on the low table in front of him very naturally, filled a glass for himself, and drank slowly.

No one in the hall spoke, so that the music continued for a meal, and the song was considered to be over.At this time, someone applauded and praised: "Good! It's played well. In this cold winter season, listening to this song really makes people feel comfortable with the spring breeze blowing on their bodies."

"Yes, the sound of the qin is the most upright, with the air of an ancient gentleman, which is suitable for appreciation on such a cold winter night. Therefore, the government of a gentleman is what the court needs most after the chaos." Another young man with handsome eyebrows followed suit. It joined up.

Then, the seven people began to talk about their views on the current court situation. From the Yellow Turban Rebellion to the eunuch's reign, it seemed that they were showing their understanding of the court situation.However, these people seem to have completely forgotten one thing, that is, they invited people to speak today, but now they have left the guests aside in the cold, which is really outrageous.

And Ma Yue was not in a hurry, nor did he intend to interrupt, he still sat there leisurely, slowly savoring the food and drink in front of him, as if he was just here to drink and eat.But in fact, his heart is full of contempt for these people in front of him. What these guys who think they are superior to others are just talking about the government of a gentleman.In his previous life, he was still very curious when he saw some books mentioning the popular talk in the Wei and Jin Dynasties. Today, it seems that this kind of cultural talk that is not practical has already appeared in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.

With such thoughts, Ma Yue's eyes also showed a bit of sarcasm, and this was quickly discovered by the other guests.Originally, these people planned to use this method to stimulate Ma Yue. If he couldn't help but get angry, they could use this to humiliate him.In this way, they will gain the upper hand in terms of momentum, and it will be more advantageous when they talk about business.Unexpectedly, Ma Yue was completely unmoved, but because of his contemptuous expression, these people felt unhappy, which made some people intolerable.

These children from aristocratic families have always had a strong sense of superiority towards children from poor families like Ma Yue, and always like to face them with a high profile.But now they are being treated with such an attitude, their self-esteem has been challenged, and they couldn't bear it any longer. Immediately, a man in Tsing Yi who was sitting on Lin Lie's left said, "Why, what Mr. Ma said to us is different. Do you have an opinion?"

"Is it because you don't know much about today's court affairs, and you can't understand the subtlety of what I'm talking about, so you don't take it seriously?" Another handsome boy dressed in white, who looked more like a woman, followed suit. The interface said.

Later, several other people also questioned Ma Yue in a mocking tone, obviously attacking his attitude just now.

Ma Yue drank the wine in the glass in his hand, and then put the glass on the table for a meal, then glanced at those aristocratic princes who were somewhat malicious, and said: "Concerning the changes in the current court situation, My knowledge is indeed limited. But I think that what you say is nothing more than useless empty talk, why should I agree with it?"

When the young masters heard him say so bluntly that he was waiting for something, their expressions darkened. If they hadn't cared about their own face, they would have ridiculed them a long time ago.But Ma Yue didn't wait for them to say anything, and continued: "You and I are in Xiliang, thousands of miles away from Luoyang. Are you really sure about what happened there? You and I in Liangzhou should really care about the major events in Liangzhou.

"Now in Liangzhou, the Qiang army is rising, several counties have been seized, the officers and soldiers have lost, and the people are in poverty... so many problems are in front of you, but what are you people who think they are talented? ?Sitting in this elegant place, drinking and listening to music, and self-righteously commenting on the government, talking about a gentleman, isn't this empty talk? Everything you say here has ever been of any use to Xiliang and me. "

This remark made everyone feel angry, but it was irrefutable.In this era where the general trend is to talk about nothing, people will naturally not find that there is anything wrong with doing so.But when someone breaks this little bit, the impact is still quite large.

Ma Yuena glanced at everyone: "I know why you invited me here. But what are you doing? Since I came in, I have never heard you talk about food. If you If someone comes to serve as an official in Xiliang, I am afraid that the swords of the Qiang people will be on your necks, and you are still talking about the way of a gentleman!"

"Ma Yue, presumptuous!" Seeing Ma Yue's words became more and more mean, Lin Lie finally couldn't help scolding: "How dare you talk to us like this, don't you even understand the etiquette of superiority and inferiority? ?”

"Courtesy? Huh, you actually said to me polite? You posted a post to invite me, saying that you have something to discuss. But in the end, when I came, you sat here listening to music and drinking, and then talked about it by yourself." , this is your way of hospitality, this is what you call etiquette?" Ma Yue waved his hands disdainfully.

This time, everyone was speechless again. They never expected that this young man who looked only fourteen or fifteen years old would have such sharp words, which put them at a complete disadvantage.

Ma Chao was suffocated at first, but when he saw that his younger brother couldn't speak a few words, he was so relieved that he couldn't help but scream.Fortunately, he was still sober, so he only used a glass of wine to block back the applause from his mouth.

Seeing that the situation has been controlled by him in turn, Ma Yue stopped saying these words, but sighed: "It's a waste of time to tell you these things now, so we'll cut to the chase. You invited me here today, for the sake of The most important thing is that the government wants to collect food from your families, am I right?"

Several people looked at each other, and in the end it was Lin Lie who said, "That's right, that's exactly what it is for. You, Ma Yue, are really good at it. You actually came to our houses with the official document of Li Junshou to collect food. This is really unreasonable." Our family, because of the favor of the imperial court in the early years, even taxes and food were halved, it is really unreasonable for you to want to collect a large amount of food from us!"

"That's right, each of our families pays the full amount of tax and food every year, but now we have to collect a large amount of extra food from us. I'm afraid this is against the court's decree? So I will never obey orders .”

"Since that's the case, then you just don't listen, why did you invite me here?" Ma Yue sneered: "I think you want me to take my life back?"

Everyone was taken aback by Ma Yue's radical words again, but they didn't expect this young man to speak out of the ordinary and dare to say anything.

"You guys actually understand very well that the government has the power to do this. That's why you think of taking action against me, a small person? Unfortunately, I want you to be disappointed. This is what I did my best. I won't have any changed."

"You..." The man in Tsing Yi listened to Ma Yue's words with contempt just now, and the anger in his heart arose: "Since you are here today, it's up to you whether you agree or not. My Hanyang Meng family doesn't care about you (people don't care) Harmony and Delusion Boy) is a small family! If you don’t change your course today, I’m afraid you won’t be able to get out of this drunken inn!” These words are already an obvious threat.This also made the atmosphere in the hall suddenly tense!
