Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 196 Ma Teng Lai Xu
These are naturally happy things for everyone, but the movement of banknotes has been hindered!It cannot be fully circulated at all, and many places even reject these banknotes, and there are even remarks that "only the dead use banknotes", which led to the actions of the masses to attack the government.

If paper currency cannot be issued, forget it for the time being. This can be done slowly in the future. After all, these cannot be solved in a short while.

Military and internal affairs have all been resolved!The meeting is naturally over here!Everyone slowly exited the council hall and went their separate ways.

In the fourth year of Jian'an, in the Jiangdong area, Sun Ce organized troops to attack Lujiang many times. Gan Ning, the prefect of Lujiang, couldn't stand it, and retreated to the area around Wancheng. Sun Ce captured a large area of ​​Lujiang, and Gan Ning asked Xuchang for help!
Li Song ordered Tan Daoji and Xue Tong to lead troops to reinforce Lujiang, join forces with Gan Ning, advance by land and water, defeat Sun Ce's land and water armies, and retake all parts of Lujiang. Make some moves!

But these have nothing to do with Li Song. At this time, Ma Teng and his son from Liangzhou welcomed a group of people outside Xuchang City.

"Father! The city of Xuchang is ahead!" The speaker is a young man with a face like a jade crown, eyes like shooting stars, a tiger body and ape arms, a sturdy belly and a wolf waist, holding a spear and riding a horse. He is Ma Chao, the son of Ma Teng.

"That's right! Xuchang is in front of you!" Xu Maogong leaned over to Ma Chao's side and stroked his beard.

"My son, do you still remember what I told you when I came out of Liangzhou for my father? This Xuchang is no better than Liangzhou, you can't let your temper go, you need to restrain yourself!" This son doesn't know the heights of the heavens and the depths of the earth!Make trouble for yourself.

"Father, don't worry! I remember everything! As long as they don't mess with me, don't blame me if they do!" Ma Chao said so, but he didn't think so in his heart. What's more, Ma Chao has been running rampant in Liangzhou for so many years. No one is an opponent, coupled with youthful vigor, it is inevitable that some people will not take others seriously.

"Drive!" Ma Chao rode his horse towards Xuchang City, followed by Ma Teng and Xu Maogong!
"Report to the Prime Minister! Ma Teng and his son have already arrived outside the city of Xuchang!" Li Song strolled in the palace and headed towards the south gate. Xu Chu reported to him the situation of Ma Teng and others!

"Oh!" Li Song stopped and asked, "Have you sent someone to meet him? Don't let my court's dignity be weakened! Let these foreign ministers laugh at me!"

"Report to the Prime Minister! The officials of Taichang Temple have already gone, and everything is handled according to the etiquette for receiving local officials to Beijing to face saints!" Xu Chu replied.

"Who is here this time? Is Ma Chao here? Is Mao Gong back?" Li Song asked, clapping his hands.

"Back to Prime Minister! Master Xu and Ma Teng returned to Xuchang together. This time, Ma Teng, his eldest son Ma Chao, Han Sui's son Han Han and others are among the people who came!" Xu Chu replied.

"Pass my order! Tonight, at the Prime Minister's Mansion, the truth is going to cleanse them up! I just happened to see what kind of guy this Ma Chao is!" Li Song said, and continued to walk towards the south gate.

"Promise!" Xu Chu clasped his fists and saluted, and hurriedly called someone to deliver the order!Xu Chu quickly followed Li Song, exited the south gate, got into the car, and escorted Li Song towards Tiance Mansion.

At night, the prime minister's mansion is brightly lit!Prime Minister Li Song set up a banquet to welcome Xu Maogong, Ma Teng and others!At the same time, they called Pei Yuanqing, Li Yuanba, Luo Cheng and others to come to the banquet together!
"Foreign ministers Ma Teng, Ma Chao, and Han Han pay homage to the Prime Minister!" Ma Teng knelt on one knee, cupped their fists and saluted.

"There's no need to be too polite!" Li Song offered help to the three of them!When the three of Ma Teng stood up, Li Song sized up Ma Teng and his son. Ma Teng was more than eight feet long, with a large body and a distinctive face and nose. He seemed to be an honest man.

Ma Chao is a young man with a face like a crown of jade, eyes like shooting stars, a tiger body and ape arms, and a sturdy belly. Stand up and take your seats!"

Li Song sat at the top, and Li Song specially arranged Ma Teng, his father and son, and Han Han to sit on Li Song's left. Ma Teng was the first, followed by Ma Chao and Han Han.The rest of the people entered their positions one by one.

"Tonight, hold a banquet at the Prime Minister's Mansion to welcome General Ma Teng and others! Come on! Let's raise our glasses! Let's respect Ma Teng, General Andy!" Li Song said, and drank it all in one gulp!Everyone imitated Li Song and drank it all in one gulp!

Three rounds of wine, five tastes of food!Li Song and Ma Teng argue with each other, Li Song secretly praises Ma Teng and others who understand current affairs as heroes!Returning to the embrace of the imperial court, Ma Teng took the opportunity to hint to himself that he was willing to work for Li Song!

"The emperor has an order!" After talking about the calf, after getting a hint of Ma Teng's willingness to be loyal, he decided to arrange for Ma Teng and the three to meet the emperor. Holy Palace!"

The three of Ma Teng hurriedly bowed in the direction of the imperial palace and said, "My ministers Ma Teng (Ma Chao and Han Han) would like to obey the emperor's order!"

After the three got up, Ma Teng suddenly heard Li Song shouting from behind: "General Andy!" Ma Teng hurriedly turned around, bowed to Li Song and said, "I don't know what orders the Prime Minister has!"

Everyone immediately looked over, and they all saw the meaning of Li Song's name as Ma Teng at this time!Li Song's fair face was slightly red, and he smiled slightly: "I heard that Ma Chao, the son of General Andy, and Ma Mengqi are heroes! He has won the three armies bravely! He is unstoppable! He is called Jin Machao! I don't know if it is true or not?"

"Prime Minister Miao Zan! My son is just a little bit powerful! It's just a false name! It can't be true!" Ma Teng was naturally happy when he heard Li Song's praise of his son, but he had to be humble on the surface .

"Father! The Prime Minister is right! This is the truth! There are not many people in this world who can fight me!" Although Ma Teng was modest, Ma Chao was not like this. Teng hurriedly winked at Ma Chao, but Ma Chao turned his head and ignored him!The angry Ma Teng was half dead, but there was nothing he could do!
As soon as the words were finished, some people were dissatisfied with Ma Chao's attitude, and they stood up and pointed at Ma Chao, "Yellow-mouthed boy! How dare you speak nonsense here! Don't be afraid that the wind will flash your tongue!"

Looking back, Ma Chao saw this man with big arms and round waist, and asked, "Who are you?"

"I am Xiao Mahe, the Zhenwu general under the prime minister's command! Shuzi! Do you dare to fight!" Xiao Mahe said.

"Huh!" Ma Chao snorted softly, and said contemptuously, "Why don't you dare! Just let the horse come over! I'll take over, so that you can know that there is a sky beyond the sky, and there are people beyond people!"

"Meng Qi! Don't be rude!" Ma Teng pulled Ma Chao, turned his head to Li Song and cupped his hands and said, "Prime Minister! The dog is reckless! Disturbing everyone's elegance! Ma Teng is here to ask the dog to accompany you."

Li Song hosted a banquet for Ma Teng and the others, not only to welcome them, but also to show them off, by the way, to show the strength of his generals, so as to deter them, so that they would not worship on the surface, but in private But make some small moves.
