Messenger Cao was really furious. He pointed at Ma Chao with trembling hands and said, "You are so rude! Ma Teng, how do you teach your son? You are an uneducated boy!"

Ma Chao thrust his knife into the ground and stood up.

Lu Xian hurriedly scolded: "Meng Qi!"

Ma Chao didn't care. Although he didn't come up to kill anyone, he pointed at the messenger's nose and said: "If I kill you, I would kill this sheep!" After saying that, he made a contemptuous gesture of breaking the sheep's neck. That was not arrogant.

Seeing it.

These words made Messenger Cao blush with anger.

What do you mean? It's easy to kill him, right?! Such contempt made him so angry that he actually coughed.

"Messenger, please do not be angry. This man is very rude. Xian apologizes to the envoy on his behalf." Lu Xian said hurriedly.

At this time, there are still people who are watching the excitement and don't mind it. General Yuan had already seen Cao's soldiers coming and going to look for people, and couldn't stop laughing. Now seeing the envoy Cao being so annoying, Ma Chao was stunned, and for a moment

He laughed happily and said: "Look at his tossing appearance. He was so disturbed that he couldn't sleep in the middle of the night. How could these two children run away in the middle of the night?!"

"Bah! You deserve it!" General Yuan had long disliked Cao Bing. At this time, it would be strange not to laugh wildly.

The atmosphere was instantly ignited.

"You are such a rude person!" Messenger Cao fell down in anger. He could only curse and could not escalate the incident.

A diplomat can only make peace with the situation and smooth things over. If he takes the initiative to stir up trouble, leading to an exchange of fire between the two soldiers, and missing a major event for both parties, his whole family will be killed.

So he took advantage of the situation and fell down, looking as if he was dying of anger. It looked like he couldn't breathe.

Lu Xian was laughing crazy in her heart. This messenger is good. To be a messenger, you have to be good at acting. When you should lie down, you should lie down. When you should fall down, you should fall down.

At times like this, if you don't have an attack, it won't work. Therefore, every diplomatic envoy cannot do this if he doesn't have the awareness to touch porcelain.

Just like Wang Kai refused to admit that Jiangdong detained him.

There are just some things that cannot be said in a serious manner on the scene. You cannot bring up such negative remarks.

And the same is true for the envoy. Things are already like this, and he can't do anything to the two parties. There is really no other way except being angry.

So this pour was a matter of course, and it was truly a stroke of genius.

Lu Xian also had to cooperate with the acting. She really couldn't ignore it, so she hurriedly said: "Please invite a doctor to come and take a look."

Messenger Cao still sneered, "I will never see Yuan Jun's doctor until he dies."

After saying that, he started to close his eyes and gasp, shaking with breath.

How could Yuan Jun's officers care about his life or death? I wish he was dead. So I ignored him and went back to their tents.

Lu Xian could only order Cao Bing to lead Cao's envoy back to Cao's camp. The envoy kept saying, "...no, rude person..."

The faces of Cao's soldiers were as black as black coal, which was particularly ugly.

All in all, Ma Chao's goal was achieved. He started roasting mutton leisurely without any anger.

Lu Xian smiled and nodded at him, saying: "Wilted boy!"

There is quite a bit of appreciation in the tone. Although it is a bit extreme, it is indeed useful.

"Please, please don't leave, I can only leave in anger." Ma Chao said: "I have tolerated him for a very long time these days!"

It’s really hard for you!

Lu Xian was quite touched. Without the messenger watching over her, it was indeed much easier to speak. She could also be more casual.

"This envoy is very good and qualified." Lu Xian said: "If he does not attack, he cannot maintain the dignity of Cao Jun. If he does attack, the consequences will be unimaginable if the incident escalates. So it is better to defeat him altogether, and both goals will be achieved. Yes.

When a person falls down, it is not to show weakness, but to control the situation and have to do something. In comparison, Yuan Jun's superiors and subordinates are much inferior, and they have not noticed that something is different."

Ma Chao thought thoughtfully after hearing this, and insisting on showing strength may not be the true way to use military force. Is this what she meant?

"Meng Qi is annoying Cao Cao?!" Lu Xian said with a smile.

As expected, Ma Chao chuckled and said: "After becoming an official, he is a traitor to the country and a treacherous villain. How can he convince others?!"

"Actually, Mengde is a rare hero with great talents and strategies." Lu Xian said with a smile.

Ma Chao looked at her in surprise and said: "You don't hate him?! He once conquered Xuzhou. If he wins, do you know what will happen to Xuzhou? He has fought against your father many times and was almost forced into the enemy's territory by your father every time.

He's in a state of death, but you don't hate him?!"

"How can the world's great talents blind their eyes with personal hatred? No matter what, Cao Cao's strategy, Sun Ce, and Liu Bei cannot be compared. They are not on the same level." Lu Xian said.

Ma Chao disagreed and said: "He? How can he be considered a hero after massacring cities many times?"

You're not much better, okay?!

Cao Cao was indeed cruel on this point. Lu Xian had nothing to say on this point.

Ma Chao looked at her and said nothing for a long time.

Although Xiliang is strong and has strong soldiers and horses, its situation is very embarrassing. The Han Dynasty is like this. In fact, Ma Teng is not really loyal to the Han Dynasty. In this era, it is just in the name of this.

In fact, what is the situation of Xiliang?! If it surrenders to Cao Cao, it can only be slaughtered.

Ma Chao was unwilling, and Ma Teng was even less willing.

However, if you don’t rely on it, how can you resist it?!

Ma Teng has been actively seeking asylum. However, being controlled by others is not a long-term path after all.

Therefore, he has been actively cooperating with the princes in various places, hoping to resist Cao Cao's power.

However, the effect of alliances is basically not great. As long as one of them obeys Cao Cao, it will collapse in a matter of seconds.

But Yuan Shao, Ma Teng and his son never considered it at all.

Precisely because he knew that Cao Cao was difficult to resist, he kept saying he hated him deeply.

And Yuan Shao doesn't take Liangzhou seriously now. People like this are much easier to deal with. Only Cao Cao's group is really difficult to deal with.

Countless messengers, those who persuade, lobby, and surrender... are extremely annoying, but they cannot resist.

If this continues, sooner or later it will become a trend.

This made Ma Chao extremely anxious. That's why he went to Hedong, not to do anything with Yuan Shang, but to take advantage of the opportunity to gain some strength, and then have the strength to withstand Cao Cao's future trends.

But now he sees another hope.

He came to protect Lu Xian when she returned to Xuzhou, not only because he obeyed her, but also to protect another possibility in Liangzhou.

Just like when she praised Cao Cao, she actually didn't necessarily just admire Cao Cao, but in her eyes, perhaps, only Cao Cao was worthy of being her opponent.

He, Ma Chao, is arrogant and conceited on the surface, but as for her, her demeanor is casual, free and easy, and of course she is humble. However, she is a strong person, and any strong person who looks at her with equal eyes is definitely not

She looks down on those who are her equal.

She has Cao Cao in her eyes, isn’t that enough to explain anything?! It means that the only opponent in her eyes is Cao Cao.

She is this person...

Ma Chao had never seen such a person before, so he didn't know how to evaluate her.

"It's burnt!" Lu Xian said with a smile: "What are you distracted about?!"

She took the mutton from Ma Chao's hand, peeled off the burnt skin on it with a knife, and made a few more cuts, then sprinkled some fine salt, and she didn't know what kind of sauce was added, which made it very fragrant after being applied.

Ma Chao smelled it and looked at her whole body. She had a secret, but it was hard to ask if she wanted to.

Lu Xian didn't even need to raise her head to know what he wanted to ask, so she said: "Don't ask, I won't tell you if you ask."

Some things just need to be seen through, but it would be pointless to expose them, right?!

Why didn't Chen Gong, Jia Xu, etc. expose it, but you alone?!

In fact, no one close to Lu Xian knows this, except her father, of course.

This is why it’s better to get along with smart people.

The top smart people see through but don't reveal anything. The second-class smart people are easy to show off. They are little bastards like Ma Chao. If you have to say it, how will it end?! Then there are people like Lu Bu, who is a little clever, but usually smart.

If you don't shake well, you become stupid. Alas.

Ma Chao curled his lips and stopped asking. He was quite sensible.

After roasting the lamb, I handed him a piece. Ma Chao took it and ate it politely, saying: "Well, it's not bad..."

Lu Xian really convinced him. This person couldn't even say a polite word, so how could she say that her barbecue skills were very good?!

Okay, she is used to his virtue.

The two of them were eating meat. Ma Chao was very used to it because he always ate meat as his daily diet. There were many horses, cows and sheep in Xiliang, and he came from an aristocratic family. In terms of diet, he always ate meat and grass.

Ashamed.

But Lu Xian is different. She eats too much meat and becomes irritable. She wants to eat rice, white cakes, fruits, vegetables, yogurt and so on. She can eat even an ordinary stir-fried vegetable.

A big bowl of rice.

However, these are a luxury in this era. During the march, they are even more unthinkable.

Therefore, the difference in consciousness and behavior is like a real barrier.

Why is it luxurious? Because in this era, nobles were ashamed of eating grass and vegetables.
