But he saw a young woman in brocade clothes coming up to her. She smiled slightly and said softly: "Father, did you hear that Ma Chao is here?"
"Yes, come to ask for food and wages."
Feiwo looked at the woman in front of him with a look of love in his eyes.
This woman turned out to be his daughter, Mrs. Fei who married Ma Teng.
"Father, you should continue to stop, otherwise you will be disturbed.
I heard from my grandma that Ma Teng has been very tight on food and salary recently, and some people in the Treasury can't afford it. My daughter has a question, and I don't know if I should say it."
Feiwo waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter if you say it, good girl."
"Which one is bigger, Ma Teng or the imperial court?"
Feiwo was startled and smiled bitterly: "Good girl, aren't you asking questions knowingly? Naturally, the imperial court is the largest... Now Sikong has wiped out Hebei and captured Jizhou. No one can stop the unification of the north. Ma Teng, although he is capable,
He also formed an alliance with Zhang Lu, but I'm afraid he is no match for Cao Gong... Xiang Yuan Shao was so powerful at the beginning, and he became a withered bone in the grave?
Good girl, this is not a good question."
Mrs. Fei said, "Since my father doesn't know, why is he still hesitant?"
"this……"
"I heard that Duke Cao has sent troops and ordered his brothers to garrison Chang'an.
Today there is Cao Hong in Chang'an, and Cao Peng in Wuwei. With these two people joining forces, my father thought that Ma Teng might live in hostility?"
The meaning of Mrs. Fei's words has been clearly expressed.
Feiwo is not a fool, how can he not hear the secret of this? But in his heart, he still has some concerns... After all, he is Ma Teng's father-in-law. He has already rebelled against Han Sui once and Ma Teng again.
Teng's words would really lose his credibility in the future. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel upset again and frowned.
Although Mrs. Fei was married to Ma Teng, it was only a political marriage.
Just imagine, she is twenty or thirty years younger than Ma Teng, so how can she have true feelings?
In the past, she had Ma Tie to rely on, but now that Ma Tie is dead, who can she rely on? Speaking of hatred, she is indeed full of hatred for Cao Peng; but this does not mean that she will continue to hate Cao Peng blindly. Mrs. Fei came out
From the Fei family, she used to marry Ma Teng for the Fei family, but now she has to find a way out for the Fei family, so she can only give up her hatred...
Fevo was very embarrassed and lowered his head and said nothing.
Mrs. Fei added: "Father, how much food and salary does Ma Chao ask for this time?"
"It was said to be 10,000 dan, but I crushed it to 5,000 dan."
"Then how much food and salary does Ma Teng need?"
"Thirty thousand stones..."
"Father, the entire Jincheng County only collected 200,000 dendrobium.
Today Ma Chao wants five thousand shi, and tomorrow Ma Teng wants another 30,000 shi... There are also two Qiang people in Huangzhong who need to continue to support them. Hundreds of thousands of people in Longxi also need to eat. The food and salary are only so little, father, can you support it?
Until when?
Now Ma Teng sees you as useful and will obey your advice.
But if you are of no use, will he still pay attention to you? Xiaotie is gone, but my daughter does not want to, and she no longer has a father."
Favor, let out a long sigh.
"Jia Changshi, what do you say?"
"He guaranteed me a salary of two thousand dan."
Mrs. Fei was startled and said softly: "Isn't that a prefect?"
"But I can't trust him... If you say he's just a long history officer, how can he protect my position as governor?"
"Father, you are so confused!" Mrs. Fei said, "It's not Chief Jia Shi who is protecting you, it's General Cao who is protecting you!
General Cao is the nephew of Duke Cao, and he is very famous.
If he can't protect you as the governor of two thousand dan, my daughter feels that no one in Liangzhou can protect you as the governor. Even Wei Duan is unlikely... Since he said so, he must be sure that his father will still be the governor.
What are you hesitating about?"
"But it was Zhang Ye who protected me!"
Mrs. Fei couldn't help but fell silent.
After a while, she whispered: "Does father think that if he rebels against Ma Teng, he will still be able to live in Jincheng?"
"this……"
"Actually, Zhangye is just Zhangye, and my daughter thinks it's not bad. When I was in Guzang, I once heard someone say that General Cao was going to build a Hexi Corridor to connect the Western Regions and Guanzhong. Zhangye is just above that corridor, although it is far away.
It is a deserted place, but it is a promising place. My daughter actually thinks that if General Cao protects you as the governor of Jincheng or the governor of Wuwei, it will seem untrustworthy. But if it is Zhangye County, my daughter believes it... That is a place that General Cao can control.
."
Feiwo suddenly raised his head, "Daughter, do you really want to rebel?"
"If my father wants to make the Fei family prosperous and wants my brother to get ahead, this is the only way to go now."
Mrs. Fei's words were decisive, and Feiwo finally made up his mind.
"Forget it, the survival of the Fei family depends on this."

Jincheng, Yunwu official post.
Jia Xing stood with his hands down, looking extremely respectful.
In the room, there was an aluminum charcoal brazier. The charcoal fire was blazing, and the room was as warm as spring. Cao Peng sat on the couch, put the bamboo slips on the desk, raised his head to look at Jia Xing, and said softly: "So,
Ma Mengqi is here to support me."
"Exactly!"
"Then Feiwo, what is your attitude?"
“Looking at the situation, I’m sure I’ll be a little tempted, but I’m afraid I won’t be able to make up my mind all at once.
But I can guess what he is worried about now. He is still afraid that his reputation will be damaged if he rebels against Ma Teng."
"Then tell me, when will he decide?"
"Only for a day or two."
Cao Peng nodded and fell into deep thought.
That day Jia Xing arrived at Luanniao and offered a plan to Cao Peng.
Jia Xing is in Guzang and has been paying attention to the development of the war. He is not good at marching and fighting, but he is curious about strategies and will save them if he attacks them.
The key to the battle of Liangzhou is not in Luanniao or Longxi, but in Jincheng!
This is the judgment made by Jia Xing. And the key to Jincheng County is Fewo... If it can be said that Fevo can be reduced, great things can be accomplished. Of course, this is not an easy thing. Fortunately, Jia Xing has it in his hands.
There is also a trump card in it, and that is Mrs. Fei. He visited her many times and had conversations with Mrs. Fei, so he knew that she was a thoughtful woman.
Even though Cao Peng had a grudge against her for killing his son, Mrs. Fei was more concerned about the future of the Fei family.
Therefore, Jia Xing persuaded Mrs. Fei to give up her hatred with Cao Peng. After all, in the current situation, Ma Tie was dead, and Mrs. Fei had no choice. If she insisted on revenge, her whole family would be destroyed in the end, and no one would be able to escape.
But if she is willing to cooperate, the insurance company will have a bright future.
After thinking for a long time, Mrs. Fei decided to cooperate with Jia Xing and offered to demote Fei Wo.
After all, his son is dead. Is it possible that his parents and brothers should also be buried with Ma Teng?
When Jia Xing told Cao Peng about this, Cao Peng suggested that he come with him to Yunwu. On the one hand, if Feiwo couldn't make up his mind, Cao Peng could come forward to make him make up his mind; at the same time, he also
I want to inquire about the news about Wang Mai and others. Wang Mai, Shi Tao, Pang De, Jiang Ji, etc., just like a stone sinking into the sea, there is no news at all, which makes Cao Peng very worried. As for Luanniao, he is not too worried. After he left
, you can let Deng Fan take over.
Deng Fan and Cao Peng were sworn brothers, and they were calm and measured in situations.
Coupled with the assistance of Zhao Ang and others, it is enough to protect Wuwei County.
In this way, Cao Peng concealed his name, took Pang Ming and a hundred white camels, and quietly followed a caravan from the Western Regions to Yunwu.
Yunwu's situation is not optimistic.
The most important thing is that the continuous wars have left Yunwu short of supplies and somewhat unbearable.
Feiwo was extremely surprised by Mrs. Fei's return. But so far, it was Jia Xing who came forward to contact Feiwo.
Ma Chao's sudden arrival really surprised Cao Peng.
But this also shows one thing, that is, Jincheng County has almost reached its limit.
In fact, with the strength of Jincheng County, it is impossible to support two battlefields at the same time. Not to mention that while the two battlefields are fighting, they must also relieve the two Qiang in Huangzhong and the huge Longxi County. Feiwo can't hold on anymore.
...This is the judgment made by Cao Peng and Jia Xing. Now, there is only one chance for Feiwo to make his final decision.
Jia Xing said: "Tomorrow I will visit Fei's house to see if I can get Mrs. Fei to put in some effort."
"It's best to keep an eye on Ma Chao."
"Um?"
"Ma Mengqi is a warrior.
This person is not as brave as I thought before. If I can get rid of him, it will relieve my troubles.
If Ma Chao dies, Ma Teng will die sooner or later than the withered bones in the grave. You can test Fei Wo's words. If he is willing to kill Ma Chao, I will guarantee that he will be a member of the Fei family, and he will be prosperous and wealthy. This is a rare good thing.
Chance."
As Cao Peng spoke, there was a terrifying murderous intent in his eyes.
He didn't have much hatred for Ma Chao, but he just felt that if he couldn't deal with Ma Chao, it would inevitably lead to a catastrophe.
Jia Xing nodded, "I will find a way to explain it to Feiwo."
At this moment, Pang Ming's voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Sir, Feiwo is here to visit. Please meet with Military Advisor Jia."
Cao Peng was startled when he heard this, and then he smiled.
Jia Xing said: "It seems that I don't need to persuade Mrs. Fei, Fei Wo can't stand it anymore."
"You ask him to come to the study to discuss, and I'll go next door."
As Cao Peng spoke, he stood up and walked out of the room. Jia Xing asked Pang Ming to lead Feiwo into the study. He turned on the oil lamp and waited quietly. After a while, Feiwo looked nervous.
Follow Pang Ming into the house.
"Master Fei, why do you come here so late at night?"
Feiwo looked at Jia Xing and suddenly said: "I can dedicate Jincheng County, but I need protection."
"Assure?"
"I need a warrant from Mr. Cao to keep my family safe. At the same time, I also need a guarantee, which is the position of the governor of Zhangye County. For these two things, if Jia Changshi can make me feel at ease, just Fei
Raise an army and rebel."
Jia Xing was stunned!
Favor's directness made him a little overwhelmed.
Fortunately, he quickly came to his senses, "I will try to do what Mr. Fei said. But how can Mr. Fei guarantee that he will dedicate Jincheng County?"
"My son Feilong is currently stationed in Luodu Valley.
Among the eight generals in Jincheng, Yang Qiu and Ma Wan have a very close relationship with me. Yang Qiu is stationed in Yuzhong first. As long as I surrender, Yang Qiu will definitely sacrifice Yuzhong. And Ma Wan is now outside Yunwu City. I can let him
He helped and controlled Yun Wu... If I surrender, even Ju Cheng Yin will not move. When the time comes, Chang Shi can order the general to send troops and defeat Ma Chao."
After Feiwo finished speaking, he looked straight at Jia Xing.
"But I don't know how Jia Changshi can make me feel at ease?"
