Chapter 1207 Entering Xiangyang

The wind in spring, blowing on people's faces, always carries a kind of warm warmth.It is this kind of warmth that greens all things on both sides of Jingchu, and all things start again and enter a new cycle of vitality.

However, on the banks of the Xiangshui River, which is so bright to the eyes, a man and two women slowly appeared. These three people were dressed luxuriously, and they could be seen as nobles who went out for an outing.However, the positions and conversations of the three of them made people feel a little weird.

The two beautiful women beside the man walked side by side, chatting and laughing, and their laughter like silver bells made the Xiangshui River sway with waves.The man at the side couldn't get in the conversation at all, which seemed superfluous.But if that's all, then it's just a poor rich man who became a free entourage of a famous lady.But the topic of those two stunning conversations seemed to be inseparable from the man, and sometimes they took the initiative to ask for confirmation, and in exchange for the man's answer with a crying face, it seemed that this man was the center of the trip.

Such a strange combination, coupled with their truly incomparable appearance and posture and refined temperament, immediately got the sideways glances of other children from aristocratic families and ladies who went out for an outing, especially those two women, which attracted a lot of attention. Those young handsome men wanted to take the initiative to talk to them.Walking halfway, after seeing the obvious woman's bun on the heads of the two women, they both showed a strange smile to the man beside them.

Regarding these, Ma Chao could only respond with a wry smile one by one. He naturally understood those talented people laughing at his ignorance of the gentleness and beauty, but how could they know how much he wanted to take the initiative to join Diao Chan and Da Qiao's chat among?But these two seemed to be deliberately so ordinary, talking about women's gossip, which made him, a big man, really ashamed to come forward.

At this time, after Ma Chao rejected the suggestion of a bold and unrestrained woman to go with him, Da Qiao gradually realized something was wrong, and said to Ma Chao, "Ma Chao, have you finished the matter of Runan?"

In ancient times, it was quite impolite to call people by their first names.But Ma Chao didn't feel disgusted with Da Qiao's name. Instead, he replied naturally: "It's almost the same. The rest are just some small details. How can I use my position as a great god, King Yong?"

Ma Chao and the others left Runan with Kuai Liang, and traveled all the way.Naturally, this was done to cover up Da Qiao's whereabouts, so as not to be harassed by Sun Ce again.When they arrived in Xiangyang City, they parted ways with Kuai Liang, and let Kuai Liang report to Liu Biao about the situation of the mission to Runan in a hurry, and carried out the next step of supporting Liu Bei.

As for fellow villagers like Da Qiao, Ma Chao was not stupid enough to tell the whole story about the development strategy of the Ma family.So after vaguely mentioning it, he asked with some mystery: "Both of you know my real identity, so you can probably guess why I came to Xiangyang this time?"

When Diao Chan heard this, a slight look of color appeared on her face.Years of married life made Diao Chan know that Ma Chao is the kind of conspirator who makes plans before acting.But Liu Biao's serious illness in Jingzhou this time can be said to affect the whole body. Since Ma Chao appeased and provoked Liu Bei in Runan, there must be an internal response in Jingzhou to inform him secretly.This time he came to Xiangyang, he must have come to secretly contact that person.Moreover, Diao Chan guessed that the identity of that person was extremely important, and Ma Chao had to be there in person.

However, like Ma Chao's concerns, Diao Chan knew that Da Qiao was by her side, so she couldn't speak these words.This feeling of knowing but still wanting to hold back his words made Diao Chan feel bitter for a while.In particular, on the surface, she still looked at Ma Chao and Da Qiao back and forth pretending that she couldn't guess.

"Xiangyang is a very familiar place for us. In that world, watching the trilogy of Golden Heroes Shooting the Condors and watching Guo Daxia fight under the city of Xiangyang made people fascinated. Besides, Xiangyang has been known as Xiongguan since ancient times. The iron-clad Xiangyang was even called the number one city in the world." After Qing Youyou said this, Da Qiao didn't make a conclusion lightly, but turned her head to observe Ma Chao's reaction.

Ma Chao was naturally delighted when he heard the words. You must know that women in previous lives could know that there are many legends about the heroes of the Condor Shooting, but there are really few who can say that Xiangyang is the best city in the world.From this, he proudly showed off: "That's true, the north of the Xiangshui River, the south of the Hanshui River, and the side of the mountains. It is this place that has made a good story through the ages, although the stories of Guo Jing and Huang Rong are exaggerated in novels. However, this city of Xiangyang is indeed a battleground for military strategists. In such troubled times, this place is coveted by the Ma family, the Cao family, and the Sun family. I dare say that after a year, no, even just half a year, the world will There is a saying: Those who win Xiangyang win the world!"

After these words, Diao Chan couldn't help frowning her crescent eyebrows slightly, and Da Qiao's expression was not very natural.But Ma Chao was completely immersed in the magnificent scenery of this great river and mountain. At this time, the three of them had reached the top of Mount Xian, looking down at the surging Han River. Xiangyang and Fancheng were like two emerald jade falling on both sides of the Xiangshui River.The sky is high and the clouds are light, the clouds are white and the wind is clear, the vegetation is green, and the bamboo forest is like the sea.Looking at Yunmengze from a distance, it is so vast that there is no limit. On Yuliangzhou, there are farmers rowing boats across the water and harvesting rice fields.Although Jingzhou has always been in chaos, the chaos is mainly at the upper level. Between the farmers and the countryside, there is still a serene and peaceful paradise.

"If Chang'an and other places are already a city with a budding commodity economy, then Xiangyang is a holy place for vacations and outings! This world is really..." Ma Chao's mood was relatively high at the beginning, but later, his tone was unnaturally low Going on: "I really shouldn't suffer the torment of the flames of war, but the troubled times are so ruthless..."

"Husband, don't be so sentimental. Since you are a person who has insight into the future, and now you are standing in the north with hundreds of thousands of soldiers. Naturally, there is a way to save the people of Xiangyang from the torment of the war." Diao Chan stepped forward, slightly comforting, and then expressed intentionally. The pointing place added: "When I come to Xiangyang this time, my husband must have a plan in mind."

At the end of the word "fixed plan", Diao Chan deliberately bit a little harder: she deliberately broke the matter, firstly to let Ma Chao know that she understood his purpose of coming to Xiangyang, and secondly to remind him not to be in Daqiao. Let's talk more about the Ma family's strategy.

If the two of them brought up this kind of matter clearly, Ma Chao would think that Diao Chan was too cautious.But in fact, Ma Chao didn't notice the unnaturalness on Da Qiao's face before, but the delicate Diao Chan noticed it.You Qi already had a grudge against Da Qiao in her heart, and she was naturally afraid that Da Qiao would guess the Ma family's strategy from some words that Ma Chao accidentally revealed.

Diao Chan doesn't like to play tricks like this, but now she has activated a defense mechanism in her heart, so she will naturally pay attention to everything.Fortunately, after seeing Ma Chao slightly displeased but still nodding slightly, Diao Chan understood that Ma Chao still trusted him a lot more in his heart.

But even though Diao Chan has been on guard everywhere, there are still some things that cannot be guarded against.After she reached a tacit agreement with Ma Chao, Da Qiao on the side spoke again: "Although most people believe that everything depends on human effort, some things cannot escape fate."

This sentence was nonsensical, so Ma Chao and Diao Chan naturally turned their attention to Da Qiao.And Da Qiao seemed a little more sad and pitiful for a moment, but he quickly restrained himself and continued to say in a very heavy tone: "Ma Chao, you must not come to Xiangyang just for sightseeing, as you, the King of Yong , in itself can bring about military disasters and conspiratorial chaos. If my guess is correct, you purposely passed Xiangyang and did not enter, just for the sake of one person here!..."

"Who?" Ma Chao only felt that the smile on the corner of his mouth was cold, it was his reaction when he felt threatened.

"During the Three Kingdoms period, apart from Longzhong Wolong, who else is worthy of your King Yong's visit?"

Ma Chao was speechless, as a tacit consent, but Diao Chan seemed unwilling, and spoke up for her husband: "Even if my husband came here for that Zhuge Liang, why did my sister say that Xiangyang is bound to suffer from war?"

"Because, Sun Ce's plan is to move the government office to Lujiang Wan County after the wedding, and his plan for Jingzhou is self-evident!" At this point, a sneer appeared on the corner of Da Qiao's mouth: " King Yong came to visit, Sun Ce moved the capital, and the Cao family established Qingzhou. The three families are making intensive preparations for Jingzhou. How could Jingzhou escape the continuous disaster of war?..."
