Chapter 228 Ma Chao's Request
Sure enough, this is also a hungry ghost in the sex.
Seeing him like this, Fu Dian took a deep breath and became polite in his face: "General Meng Qi is famous in the western border. Fu Dian has been with great friends for many years, and today we finally met!"
"Uncle Guo is polite." Ma Chao laughed dryly, then withdrew his gaze: "Don't stand outside the door, come in quickly. Come in and sit in!"
"Thank you."
After entering the house, Fu Dian swept around. The house where Ma Chao lives was luxuriously decorated, with exquisite interiors, and many Western Liang style decorations. When Cao Cao looked at it, he put some thoughts on it.
The two of them sat down with the host and guest, and someone came to offer tea here. Fu Dian glanced at him and suddenly reached out to stop the sergeant: "Brother, don't be busy here. It's all about serving tea and water. Let her come!"
When Fu Dian said this, Xiao Xiang turned his eyes and understood. He came forward to cook tea for the two of them obediently. His every frown and smile, and his every move was fascinating.
Ma Chao sat there and watched with a flash of light in his eyes, and he drove the soldier out: "Okay, you don't need you here anymore, hurry up and rest!"
"yes."
Of course, those who can serve him are all personal soldiers. At this moment, they didn't know what the young master was thinking. The soldier responded quickly and slowly retreated.
At this moment, there were only Ma Chao, Fu Dian and Xiao Xiang left in the room. After drinking a sip of tea, Ma Chao spoke with a smile, and his mouth was like a blow-off: "I'm afraid that my uncle was not sent by His Majesty today, so I came to find Chao specifically?"
"ah?"
When Fu Dian heard this, his heart sank, but he smiled and said, "You can also say that. General Meng Qi is young and heroic, and my brother-in-law is willing to make friends with you. There is nothing wrong with it."
"Although this is the case, Chao is still a mortal after all, and His Majesty is not the one who favors him." Speaking of this, Ma Chao suddenly turned a frightened: "Your Majesty should still value the 80,000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry. Is Chao right?"
Damn, this guy is so awesome!
Fu Dian swallowed. Although he was not afraid of Ma Chao, he was told in one word and it felt really uncomfortable.
He didn't say anything, but Ma Chao didn't care. He laughed: "Uncle Guo doesn't have to be nervous. Since Chao can say these words, he naturally knows what the weight is. In fact, all this... Chao has arrived early, but my father doesn't know it."
"Don't you know about the veteran general Shoucheng?" Fu Dian frowned and looked at him: "What does General Meng Qi mean?"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Ma Chao suddenly burst into laughter, and after he smiled, he stared at Fu Dian's eyes, and his spirit flashed: "Your Majesty re-acquisition of Wuxihou Kingdom. Since then, Chao has known that Your Majesty must have the intention of rising. This time, the reason why we father and son agreed to the Prime Minister to enter the court is of course because of the situation. Second, is it... It is also that Chao wants to touch it and see if there is a chance to contact Your Majesty!"
Mr. Jin from Xiliang, it’s true that he is not an ordinary person!
According to Ma Chao, he was actually deliberately waiting for him, or someone other emperor might have sent. It was really not easy.
Since he said this, Fu Dian felt that if he was not happy enough, he would be underestimated by Ma Chao. He took a deep breath and no longer covered him.
"General Meng Qi, since you said that, I will be blunt. It's true. This time, His Majesty asked me to come here, and the purpose is to reach a strategic agreement with General Meng Qi!"
"Strategic Agreement?" Ma Chao smiled, with a little disdain: "If the agreement is not agreed, it is aside first. Chao has two requirements. If His Majesty can agree to us and continue to talk further, if he doesn't agree, there is no need to say anything. How did the uncle come and go back. Chao will not tell anyone about the matter tonight."
“…General Meng Qi, please speak.”
"Actually it's very simple." Ma Chao said solemnly: "The first is that over the years, the military pay of the Xiliang army has always been self-sufficient. The uncle of the country should know that Xiliang is a poor place, and there have been constant wars for many years. So if possible, Chao hopes that the court can subsidize the military pay during my administration in Xiliang."
"What about the second request?" Fu Dian did not answer him directly, but his heart was relieved a lot. Before he came here, Liu Xie had already calculated this.
“As for the second requirement…”
Speaking of this, Ma Chao paused: "That is, when the right time, His Majesty can send my father back to Xiliang. No matter what, I am his son, and I can't watch my father be a hostage in the court. The uncle of the country does not say secret words. Although we father and son have always been in Xiliang, the affairs in the court are not completely unknown. The Prime Minister trained sailors in Xuanwu Lake, obviously he wanted to prepare to go south. He invited my father to Xuchang at this time to restrain me. Don't make trouble with the cavalry while he went south. I can guarantee that, but after that, I hope my father can return to Xiliang safely!"
After saying that, Ma Chao sighed and his expression eased: "There are only these two requests, or begging him to agree, and all other things will be done according to His Majesty's will!"
"All right."
Fu Dian nodded and looked at him sincerely: "General Meng Qi, I will take these two requests back to discuss with His Majesty. I will come again tomorrow and I will definitely give you an answer, how about it?"
"good."
Ma Chao also smiled and sat there straightened his body: "Since that's the case, Chao won't leave you anymore, go slowly!"
"……good."
Fu Dian was a little embarrassed by his order to expel the guest, but he still held back and didn't get anything. He stood up and glanced at Xiaoxiang: "General Meng Qi, I brought this woman to serve you. Sure enough, I was not wrong. You don't have a single maid here. Those soldiers and armor alone are afraid that they can't take good care of them. So let her..."
"No need!"
Before he could finish his words, Ma Chao shook his head: "Uncle Guo, I'm not hiding you. I do like beauties. Besides, at your age, how many people don't like beauties?"
"But I will not receive any reward without merit. I, Ma Mengqi, are not a ghost or god in the sex. This woman is indeed beautiful, but you will take it back today. If you can succeed tomorrow, you don't have to say that I must stay and enjoy this woman for a few days. On the contrary, if no agreement is reached, I will not be able to occupy the girl's body!"
This was an unexpected ending, but Fu Dian could tell from Ma Chao that he was not pretending to be a grandson. He took a deep breath. He nodded, said nothing, and took Xiaoxiang away from the other hall.
When he returned to the palace, he told Liu Xie everything, and Liu Xie also agreed to his request very happily and made a promise that as long as Ma Chao accepted the agreement, the court would be willing to subsidize him 200 kilograms of gold and 3,000 kilograms of silver to him every year!
This is definitely not a small amount, and Fu Dian was stunned: "Brother-in-law, this is not a matter of verbal lip service. Do you have that much money? I'm afraid this amount of money cannot be spent from the treasury."
