Hold Your Hand·Xuantian Chaotic Times

Chapter 233 Complicated Situation

Ling Hao really didn't know how to face Xiahoushang. In all fairness, he thought Xiahoushang's attitude towards him was very strange, but what he never expected was that Xiahoushang liked him and always treated him as a woman …Now I know, according to my own experience, if a straight man (Xuan:==) knows that the person he really likes is actually a man, he will definitely feel that the sky is falling, maybe it will start directly in the next second Inexplicably disgusted.Of course, Ling Hao has nothing to do about this, he can't go to Xia Houshang to provoke him...

Returning to the original place, several people in official uniforms had already started counting people with a stack of something. Ling Hao stepped forward to sign, and then took out the paperwork.The other party immediately looked at Ling Hao with strange eyes, then whispered something, and returned the document after a while.Could it be that something went wrong... He took the paperwork with some worry, "Ling Hao? You were born in a non-local place, and you need one more inspection procedure, please follow me." A person who seemed to be in charge suddenly said.Ling Hao paused. As far as he knew, Lu Bu didn't seem to say that there would be such a procedure.

With doubts in his heart, Ling Hao still complied in order not to cause trouble.The man led him away from the pavilion and started walking in the opposite direction. "May I ask what the inspection procedure is for this adult?", "You will know when you arrive, so there is no need to say more.", Ling Hao was speechless, and after almost half a cup of tea, Ling Hao stopped. . "My lord, this is getting farther and farther away from the front hall. The location of the previous examination should be in the Guiyuan Hall. Your direction is the opposite."After saying a word, the expression of the person leading the way suddenly changed, "Am I the inspector or are you? If you don't want to go, you don't have to take the palace examination, just go back."

In just one sentence, it is obvious that this person does not seem to be friendly to him. Leaving aside whether he is from Cao Cao's side or not, this attitude alone has made Ling Hao frown slightly. "Sorry, I'm just asking, please lead the way." However, Ling Hao still ignored this person's attitude after all. In the palace, one more thing is worse than one less thing. Up to now, adapting to the situation is the best strategy.Xu didn't expect Ling Hao to be so good-tempered, the man opened his mouth to say something but gave up, turned around and led the way sullenly.

I don't know if it was a coincidence, but when they turned around a courtyard, the two ran into a group of tigers in brocade clothes, the leader of whom was wearing a general's uniform, Ling Hao was taken aback when he saw the person coming.Ma Chao also paused for a second when he saw Ling Hao, and frowned slightly when he saw the man with Ling Hao. "General Ma." The person who led the way saw Ma Chao making a bow, and his expression was a little nervous. "Where is Lord Fan going?", "This... Prime Minister Cao ordered that anyone who lives as a guest to take part in the examination must be taken to the North Hall to have his identity verified before entering the hall.".Sure enough, it was Cao Cao...

Hearing this, Ma Chao glanced at Ling Hao, saw that the other party was looking at him, and then gestured to a line of imperial guards behind him (the imperial guards in the novel are indeed good...although I think it's weird.) "You guys go first." After leaving the Imperial Forest Army, Ma Chao looked at the person leading the way, "The person behind Mr. Fan, although he was born in Xiliang, is under the command of Liu Yuzhou. Since Liu Yuzhou is the current emperor's uncle, I will guarantee this person, and there is no need for a review. Please. Mr. Fan told the Prime Minister that if there is a mistake, I will bear all the responsibilities." After Ma Chao finished speaking, the person surnamed Fan looked puzzled, "Why, Mr. Fan doesn't believe it?" "How dare you, since General Ma said so ... I will take him back later." The guide seemed to want to leave early.Ma Chao grabbed the other party's sleeve, "Master Fan is busy with business, I'm going to the front hall, I'll take this man with me." After finishing speaking, he nodded to the man without asking if he was willing. , stepped forward and signaled Ling Hao to follow him.

"Cough, this is not good..." Ling Hao turned his head to look at the person surnamed Fan, and then whispered to Ma Chao who was walking in front. "Why not?" Ma Chao slowed down his pace, "Everything has been arranged ahead of time, and it would be a waste of time to let Cao Cao take advantage of the loopholes at this time." Others know that you know me, but it seems that you are partial."Not knowing if that sentence was right, Ma Chao suddenly smiled softly, "I'm just taking sides.".Ling Hao was immediately speechless when he heard the words. Lv Bu has been too cautious recently, but Ma Chao is just the opposite, "Lv Bu has a special status than me, so it's good for him to be more cautious." Seemingly seeing what Ling Hao was thinking, Ma Chao added .Ling Hao was at a loss for what to say, and followed Ma Chao away for a while, before uttering softly: "Meng Qi...I owe you too much." Ma Chao didn't respond directly, but shook his head slightly, Then he said: "Don't think so much."

Undoubtedly, a palace test can be said to have changed a lot of water in the current situation.Without Ma Chao's unexpected addition halfway through, the Imperial Forest Army would have been the governor of Cao Xiu, Zhong Yao would have been the prime minister, and Hua Xin would have been the royal doctor.Once Ling Hao passes the test, he can be assigned the rank of nobility, except for the sixteenth rank of marquis, the seventeenth rank of Marquis of Guanzhong, all of which are gold seals and purple ribbons; , Copper seal ring New ink ribbon.Not daring to neglect, Ling Hao followed Ma Chao to the place and was ushered into the hall.Ma Chao turned around and went to inspect the palace gate, only to see Lu Bu's carriage Shanshan was late.

The man was still wearing a black robe, got out of the carriage and walked straight towards him. "What's the matter?", "Already gone.", Lu Bu knew it in his heart with only four words, and thought for a while, "Don't leave after the test, some things must be discussed in front of the emperor.", Confessed In a word, Lu Bu got into the carriage again.

"Open and bright" and anyone with a discerning eye can see what the emperor means, so the palace test is just a formality, and Ling Hao, who has memorized almost all the content, is naturally not far behind. Ma Chao is not worried about this.Recently, the emperor summoned him and Lu Bu alone more and more times. With the prestige accumulated by Lu Bu's predecessor Wen Hou and the great general, the emperor let go a lot, at least he didn't have to be cautious in front of Cao Cao.However, knowing what the emperor meant next, Ma Chao couldn't help being a bit taken aback.

"Last time, I reached a consensus with Ling Hao. After the official position is settled this time, I plan to let him go to Liu Bei's side immediately. Cao Cao's side will be stable for the time being. Ling Hao was Liu Bei's trusted subordinate before. This time he will be sent to Liu Bei. It shouldn't be too difficult to go." Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty meant clearly that after mastering the power of Lu Bu and Ma Chao, he took down Liu Bei's considerable power before Cao Cao. "If Liu Bei doesn't want to." Lu Bu said lightly. He didn't think Liu Bei was that kind of person. In his opinion, it would be better to go it alone than to return to the court, and if Liu Bei really didn't plan to return to Han, he would definitely use various means excuses. "Cao Cao is a very good shield.", "This is something Ling Hao personally promised. Of course, if things don't go well, then Liu Bei can only be regarded as a foreign party.".

"Liu Bei is not surprising. The generals under his command are indeed loyal, and there are also counselors like Zhuge Liang. The last general thinks that if you want Liu Bei to return to Han, you must first let him mess up. Once the men under his command have the heart to belong to the court, Naturally, it will disintegrate faster, and without the support of the people, it will not be able to last for long." Ma Chao said straight to the point, and Lu Bu agreed. "Ling Hao is Zhuge Liang's only apprentice. The two of them have a very good relationship and basically share the same views. The emperor should start with this person first." Moreover, once Ling Hao succeeds, only Soochow and Cao Cao are left. Soochow... It's hard to say, since Sun Ce also has a deep affection for Ling Hao, and the possibility of returning to Han is very high, but the possibility of heresy is not ruled out.As for Cao Cao, after Liu Bei and Soochow are done, naturally he doesn't need to do much, and he will break without attack.
