"No!"

Cheng Gongying denied Ma Yi's guess.

Ma Yi's martial arts is not very good, if he is asked to assassinate Dong Zhuo, he will fail in all likelihood.

"Then who will go?" Ma Teng asked curiously.

Cheng Gongying said: "The eldest son Ma Chao, the second son Ma Tie, brother Yicheng's eldest son Ma Dai, and General Han's son-in-law Yan Xing."

Cheng Gongying originally planned to let the Ma brothers carry out the execution, but Ma Teng might not accept it. He is a counselor next to Han Sui.

"hiss!"

Ma Teng, Ma Yi, and Han Sui looked at Cheng Gongying in horror. If this happened, there would be no one in Xiliang for them.

Cheng Gongying continued: "Three generals, wealth and wealth are sought in danger. If we can succeed, we will be the ones who coerce the emperor to make the princes."

Ma Teng said angrily: "It's a good one to hold the emperor to order the princes, and he must have his life."

Han Sui said: "This plan is not right, we cannot afford to fail."

Ma Yi said: "I absolutely do not agree, let a few children go to Chang'an, once the matter is revealed, our Ma family will have no successors."

Cheng Gongying explained: "Three generals, the success rate of this plan is more than [-]%. If there is assistance from the ministers of the DPRK and China, then it can be increased to [-]%."

"Father, my son is willing to go!"

At this moment, Ma Chao strode in. He had been eavesdropping outside the door for a long time.

"Nonsense!" Ma Teng scolded Ma Chao.

Among my sons, Ma Chao is the best. If Ma Chao falls in Chang'an, who will command his army in the future?

Ma Chao said: "What Cao Shuo can do, I, Ma Chao, can do, and what Cao Shuo can't do, I can do as well."

Ma Teng's face was livid, "Chang'an is dangerous, do you know?"

Ma Chao said stubbornly: "Of course I know, but Dong Zhuo doesn't have a strong general to guard him. Once this matter is successful, our Ma family will be famous all over the world."

Cheng Gongying said: "With the martial arts of the eldest son, coupled with the assistance of Yan Xing, Ma Dai and others, even if the matter is revealed, it should not be a problem to get out of Chang'an."

Ma Teng said worriedly: "The few of them are not bad at martial arts, but they easily lose their composure in case of trouble, and they need other people's assistance."

Han Sui suggested: "There is a man in Ji County, Tianshui County. His name is Yang Fu and his name is Yishan. This man is very resourceful. I recommended him to be the army's grain cao. Why don't you let him assist Brother Yicheng?"

Ma Teng agreed: "Then it's settled. Yicheng, Meng Qi, Ma Dai, Ma Tie, and Yan Xing entered the court as hostages to confuse Dong Zhuo."

Cheng Gongying said: "General Yicheng, Meng Qi, Ma Dai, and Ma Tie are in the open, and Yan Xing and Yang Fu are in the dark. This matter will definitely succeed."

Several people discussed the specific countermeasures, and then sent someone to send a letter to Wang Yun in Chang'an, informing them that the ministers of the court and central government should handle the matter.

In Chang'an City, in the prime minister's mansion, Dong Zhuo looked at Ma Teng's letter of surrender with surprise.

"Li Ru, why do you think this Ma Teng took refuge in me?"

Previously, Dong Zhuo tried to persuade him to surrender many times without success, but now that he has given up, the other side wants to take refuge.

Li Ru said: "Xiangguo, this matter is very strange, we must act carefully."

The day when they will 'negotiate' with Liu Xie to abdicate is getting closer, and they have to be careful.

If Ma Teng sincerely joins them, their strength will definitely increase greatly, but at this critical moment, they must know whether the other party is sincere.

Dong Zhuo asked: "Do you have a way to detect whether it is sincere to surrender?"

Li Ru thought for a while, and said: "Ma Teng's request for an official position, Xiangguo can first agree to it, and then ask him to send his wife and children to live in Chang'an, so we can find out whether he is sincerely seeking refuge."

When Dong Zhuo saw the letter, Ma Teng concluded that Lv Bu had turned against him, and he couldn't help saying angrily, "Lv Bu, a rebellious son, even secretly informed Cao Shuo. No wonder Cao Shuo was able to escape from Luoyang smoothly."

Li Ru was stunned. Cao Shuo escaped from Luoyang and had nothing to do with Lu Bu.

"Xiangguo, it's disgusting that Lu Bu pretended to be attached to us and got a lot of food and grass from us. We might as well agree to Ma Teng and let him attack Lu Bu."

"I think it's feasible. Ma Teng uses his own soldiers and horses. The more he loses, the better it is for us. We divide our troops into two groups. Let Ma Teng attack Lu Bu on the one hand, and let him send his wife and children to Lu Bu. Chang'an."

After the two discussed it, they sent someone to report to Ma Teng. Dong Zhuo was just testing Ma Teng's loyalty, but Ma Teng actually sent hostages.

Ma Teng's elder brother Ma Yi, his eldest son Ma Chao, his second son Ma Tie, Ma Yi's eldest son Ma Dai, and dozens of followers.

Li Ru said firmly: "Xiangguo, Ma Teng should have sincerely voted, otherwise he would not have sent such important people to Chang'an."

The people sent by Ma Teng were loyal enough, and two of the three sons were sent over, as well as his elder brother.

Then Li Ru said: "However, we still have to be careful. At the beginning, Lu Bu sincerely voted, but in the end he rebelled against Xiangguo for his daughter."

Dong Zhuo said: "Observe for a while, and before I ascend the throne, first restrict their actions to avoid chaos."

"I'll make arrangements right now."

Li Ru arranged for Ma Yi and his party to stay in Chang'an City, a well-guarded courtyard.

After Ma Yi moved in, he called a few children over and explained: "You three must not cause trouble for me. Everything is based on the overall situation. Yan Xing and Yang Fu have secretly come to Chang'an. How to act and when to act. We just have to wait for the notification."

"No!" Ma Chao, Ma Tie, and Ma Dai agreed listlessly.
