Han Sui was surprised: "How can you exchange letters with Yuan Xi?"
At this point, Han Sui seemed to have woken up. He looked at his daughter carefully and said, "I remember you once went to Yedu. Do you like Yuan Xi?"
Camille lowered her head and said: "My daughter has only seen Yuan Xi in Ye, and then she knows what a real man is, a great husband. For a brave and foolhardy person like Ma Chao, Yuan Da Sima is ten times better than him."
Han Sui glanced at Camille in confusion: "You girl, how can you become so bold! Marriage requires the orders of your parents and the words of a matchmaker, so there is no reason for you to be independent."
Camille felt that she had made a mistake, so she could only bow her head and admit her mistake.
In fact, this is also due to differences in cultural background. If you are a Chinese awakener, know the marriage customs of ancient China, and understand the reserve and shyness of ancient Chinese women, you will not speak like Camille and arouse your father's suspicion.
The reason why many crooked nuts don't do well when they come to the plane with the background of ancient China is mainly because they don't understand the cultural background of ancient China and their reserved way of saying things. They often make people suspicious in their words, and even offend people unintentionally.
The natives of the spiritual world are all ignorant.
Fortunately, "Miss Han Qi" is a girl from Xiliang, not a lady from the Central Plains. When it comes to marriage, it is not particularly out of the ordinary to be brave.
Han Sui opened Bai Xiaowen's letter, read it through, and said:
"Fortunately, there is nothing written about military matters, just casual chat about home affairs."
Camille said: "My daughter knows the seriousness, so of course she will not leak our military secrets." She silently added two words in her heart: That's weird.
Han Sui then asked: "Does Yuan Xi have any interest in you? A hero like him who has achieved success at a young age and has great power in the world may not necessarily like you, a Xiliang woman."
Camille smiled and said, "Father, look at the back."
Han Sui turned over the back of the letter and saw the poem "Guan Ju" written on it, which means that when a gentleman sees a beautiful lady, he yearns for her.
Han Sui was mixed with joy and sorrow, and said: "Unexpectedly, Yuan Xi is really interested in you. This is really rare. There are thousands of women in the Central Plains. What kind of woman does he want and can't get? He didn't even like Ma Yunlu, but he fell in love with him.
You, a yellow-haired girl, are so strange."
Camille straightened her chest and said angrily: "Father underestimates me too much. I am not any worse than Miss Ma Yunlu, right?"
Han Sui turned his head away from Camille, frowned and scolded: "You girl, you are too rude and rude!"
Camille didn't know which ancient Chinese taboo she had violated, so she could only hang her head in repentance based on past experience.
Han Sui then sighed: "With this relationship, when the Xiliang army is defeated, if our family becomes a prisoner, we can at least survive."
Camille said: "Since my father knew that Ma Chao would be defeated, why did he hang himself on his tree? Why not reply quietly, bring order to the chaos, cooperate with Yuan Xili, and capture Ma Chao. Not only does my father not have to be a prisoner, he can also be Yuan Xi's
The guest is here. When the time comes, the Marquis of Xiliang’s seat will be occupied by my father."
Han Sui was unable to scold his cheap daughter for her ignorant speaking style. He shook his head and sighed: "Ma Teng and I are sworn brothers, how can we betray our alliance? Don't mention the matter of internal and external cooperation."
Camille blinked: "Then do I want to write a reply?"
Han Sui nodded and said: "As long as it has nothing to do with military matters, you can write it, but you have to be careful. If someone finds out, your father's face must not look good."
In Han Sui's heart, he was actually very conflicted. He knew that following Ma Chao against Yuan Xi would have no future, but he couldn't bring himself to stab Ma Chao.
Maintaining a personal friendship between the daughter and Yuan Xi can be regarded as a way out.
Camille asked: "Father, what should I write to best respond to Yuan Xi's feelings?"
Han Sui, who had read books, immediately said: "Yuan Xi borrowed "Guan Ju" from "The Book of Songs: Guofeng", which is elegant and elegant. If you are interested in him, you can answer it with "樛(jiu)木"."
"
Camille: "I don't know how."
Han Sui: "..."
…
Whether it was bad luck or fate, the messenger sent by Camille to reply was captured by Ma Chao's patrol sergeant as a spy.
After searching for the letter, he presented it to Ma Chao.
When Ma Chao saw that the letter was sent from Han Sui's military camp, he was suspicious.
He opened the letter and read it. The content of the letter was nothing more than trivial matters in life and did not involve military affairs; the signature at the end was Han Qi.
Ma Chao frowned, feeling unhappy.
But when I turned over the back, I saw a few lines of text:
There are locust trees in the south, and the kudzu (lěi) is tired of them. Only a gentleman is happy, and he is blessed to live in Sui.
In the south there are locust trees and kudzu trees. It is only a gentleman who is happy and has good luck to lead it.
There are locust trees in the south, and kudzu is lingering in them. Only a gentleman will be happy, and he will be blessed by walking.
When Ma Chao saw this "樛木", he was furious and said: "Yuan Xi and I are fighting to the death, but you are thinking about marriage!"
Ma Tie next to him didn't know what he meant, so he asked for clues.
Zhou Fu, the chief of the army, said: "This article is called "樛木", which comes from "The Book of Songs: Guofeng". It repeats three sentences, saying that Siluo relies on the tree and longs for the kindness and good deeds of the gentleman. The daughter of Han Taishou
I am afraid that by writing to Yuan Xi like this, my heart belongs to someone else."
Ma Chao was so angry that he took the letter and went to Han Sui's camp to question him.
Pang De and Ma Dai hurriedly dissuaded him: "No. If Han Sui has no intention of surrendering to Yuan, it would be a shame for the young general to go; if Han Sui has the intention of surrendering to Yuan, wouldn't it be a trap for the young general to go?"
Ma Chao's anger subsided a little, and after thinking about it, he ordered people to invite Han Sui.
Han Sui still didn't know that his daughter's letter had been "revealed", but when he heard that Ma Chao was hosting a banquet and invited him, he was happy to leave.
After all, Camille still couldn't bear it and persuaded him: "Father, Ma Chao has always relied on his own martial prowess and did not take his father seriously. Now I am inviting him to a banquet unexpectedly. I am afraid he has no good intentions."
Han Sui shook his head and said, "You are so fascinated by Yuan Xi that you don't know anything from east to west, so you don't like Ma Chao. Ma Chao is my adopted nephew. How can you have bad intentions in hosting a banquet for me?" He straightened his clothes and stepped forward.
Go to a banquet.
At the banquet, Ma Chao persuaded Han Sui to drink.
After drinking for three rounds, Ma Chao asked: "Now that reinforcements have arrived, does uncle have any plan to defeat Yuan?"
Hearing this, Han Sui thought he had found another opportunity, so he urged: "My dear nephew, don't be too stubborn. With the power of the Central Plains, even a mediocre lord, we Xiliang can't resist; not to mention Yuan Xixiong's brilliant strategy
, Youzhou has been invincible since it raised its troops? Why not write a letter to make peace?"
Ma Chao's expression changed, and he sneered and said: "Of course my uncle is trying to persuade me to make peace. If my nephew doesn't want to make peace, will my uncle send someone to arrest me?"
Han Sui was surprised and said: "Why did my wise nephew say this?"
Ma Chao stood up with a bang, threw a letter in front of Han Sui, and shouted: "You are going to take my head as your daughter's dowry! Are you still pretending not to know?"
