Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 341
[Chapter 341 Bloody Dusk]
The light from the lantern makes Ma’s mansion as bright as day.
Ma Chong drank the glass of wine in his hand, and said slowly: “My arrangement is not to welcome Ma Han back!”
“What!” Everyone sitting cross-legged at the low table looked shocked.
Ma Chong had long expected these clan elders to have such a reaction.
Ma Jin glanced at the clan elders, did not speak, just bowed his head and drank.
He raised his hand to signal the clan elders to be safe and calm, and he continued: “The ancestors of the Ma family taught that no child in the clan should harm the interests of the Ma family, otherwise the whole clan will punish him.”
With a sneer, he continued: “But Ma Han Now that he is alive, not only did he not return to Ma’s house, but instead colluded with King Yan, what is the difference between this and a traitor?”
“Well said.” Ma Jin shouted loudly at this moment.
Holding the wine glass, he stood up, “This King Yan is the prince, representing the royal family, and has always been incompatible with us and other powerful clans. Ma Han voted for King Yan. If this is not a traitor, what is it?” After a
pause, He said: “Comparatively speaking, after Ma Chong inherited the position of Patriarch, he basically cut off contact with the King of Yan. This is in the interests of my Ma family.”
“This…” The
clan elders whispered suddenly, some nodded, Some people shook their heads.
Ma Yue narrowed his eyes slightly, he always remembered the Ma family’s ancestral precepts, and never violated them for a moment.
But Ma Chong and Ma Jin’s words seem reasonable, but they are actually extremely absurd.
He stood up and said solemnly: “It’s just nonsense. Although King Yan is an imperial family, the powerful clans are courting him one after another in order to buy cannons. For the sake of profit, let go of their prejudices. This is really for the Ma family, not for the sake of Personal preference, disregarding the interests of the Ma family, and blindly making enemies. Xiliang has surrendered to Beidi. Is the share counted as defending Xiaoguan?”
“Yes, if there is no artillery, how can we reach Beidi and Xiliang.”
“It’s hard to deal with Xiliang alone, and what can we do with Beidi.”
“It is said that the Han family and the Liang family bought artillery from King Yan long ago, but our Ma family has not moved for a long time. It really shouldn’t be.”
“… …”
This news immediately caused the clan elders to explode.
If Beidi and Xiliang break Xiaoguan, the Ma family will cease to exist.
Ma Chong and Ma Jin’s expressions changed.
Ma Jin said to Ma Yue: “Scaremongering!”
“This is not dangerous and alarmist, but the truth.” Ma Yue snorted, “When my brother is still alive, I will live in harmony with King Yan and jointly resist foreign enemies. This is Ma Jin. Where the interests of the family lie.”
Hearing this, Ma Jin’s complexion changed several times, and seeing that the other clan elders agreed with Ma Yue’s words, he and Ma Chong looked at each other, their faces suddenly distorted.
“Today, I said that if I don’t welcome Ma Han back, I can’t welcome Ma Han back. From now on, Ma Chong and I have the final say in the Ma family. There is no need for you bastards to keep talking.” Ma Jin was furious, and immediately he The wine glass was smashed to pieces.
At this time, the soldiers hiding in the surrounding rooms rushed out one after another when they heard the sound of wine glasses breaking.
They drew their swords and swarmed out, surrounding the clan elders.
Seeing the shining sword, Ma Yue’s face suddenly turned pale.
The other clan elders were also terrified and panicked.
“Ma Jin, what do you want to do? You are a traitor.”
A grumpy clan elder stood up and pointed at Ma Jin.
Ma Jin’s expression was cold, and he gave the general who led the army a look.
The general stepped forward immediately, and the long sword pierced the clan elder with a bang.
Seeing that the elders of other tribes had killed someone, several people immediately slumped on their chairs.
The Ma family is going to be in chaos.
Ma Yue’s heart sank like water, and now he regrets not listening to the words of the regulations.
I didn’t expect Ma Jin and Ma Chong to be so frantic.
This is simply ruining the foundation of the Ma family.
“Take Ma Yue down for me.” Shocking the other clan elders, Ma Jin looked at Ma Yue.
In the Ma family, apart from him, only Ma Yue can stand up to him.
Now, he naturally couldn’t let Ma Yue live.
“Ma Jin, you will die badly.” Ma Yue said word by word.
Despite his precautions, the guards who came with him all had daggers hidden on their bodies.
But there were so many Ma Jin soldiers in the yard, he thought he might not be able to escape.
It’s just that he knows that he must die, and he is not a person waiting to be killed.
Lifting the hem of the gown, he drew out the short sword from the sheath wrapped around his legs and pointed it at Ma Jin.
Upon seeing this, Ma Jin just smiled disdainfully and nodded to the general.
At this time, the soldiers rushed towards the clan elders at the banquet, swords were flying, and each and every one of the Ma clan elders screamed and fell into a pool of blood.
The soldiers also rushed towards Ma Yue.
The guards who followed Ma Yue drew out their daggers at the same time, protected Ma Yue behind them, and fought with Ma Jin’s soldiers.
It’s just that although they are all very skilled, they still can’t stand Ma Jin’s many soldiers. When the border war went out of the gate, people kept being killed.
After moving no more than 30 meters, there were only three of the twelve guards left.
At this time, all the soldiers who had killed all the other clan elders surrounded Ma Yue and trapped him in the center.
Ma Yue knew he was going to die, so he closed his eyes.
But at this moment, there was only a “dong” sound suddenly.
The door of Ma’s mansion was suddenly knocked open.
Dian Zhang, holding double axes and wearing armor, rushed in like a killing god.
Dozens of soldiers followed behind him.
Although Ma Yue dismissed his speculation, he was beating his heart.
After all, Ma Yue has saved his life.
And if something happens to Ma Yue, no one in the Ma family will be able to hold Ma Jin back.
But even so, he can only worry in the barracks.
After all, it was like treason to lead troops there hastily.
But at this moment, a soldier suddenly brought him a note.
There is a flame mark on the note, revealing that Ma Jin dispatched soldiers to enter an ambush quietly through the back door of the mansion.
After reading the note, he immediately rushed over with his own soldiers.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they reached the door, they heard the sound of fighting.
He immediately led the troops to kill the guards at the door and rushed in.
“Kill!” Dian Zhang was also a top-notch general in the Ma family army.
Holding the heavy axe, he opened and closed, and immediately scattered the soldiers surrounding Ma Yue.
Holding Ma Yue, he said: “My lord, come with me.” After finishing speaking
, he left the soldiers behind, dragged Ma Yue and went out the door.
Shocked by the sudden change, Ma Jin’s expression changed.
But seeing that there were only dozens of people in the ordinance, he immediately shouted: “Ma Chang, lead the troops to chase after me.”
The general called Ma Chang immediately led the troops and rushed out.
But at this time, the decree had already put Ma Yue on the horse, and they went to the city gate together.
While Ma Chang dispatched cavalry to chase him, he sent people to reply to Ma Jin.
“Uncle, what should we do? If Ma Yue returns to Sizhou, he will welcome Ma Han back and lead troops to attack us.” Ma Chong said anxiously.
Ma Jin gritted his teeth and said: “Now we have no turning back. Immediately declare that Ma Han and Ma Yue are rebels of the Ma family. If you help Ma Han and Ma Yue, my Ma family regards them as enemies.”
