Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 593

[Chapter 593 Equivalent Exchange]

“From now on, Madam and Quanzi will live in Yancheng, and I hope His Highness

will take care of you.” Ma Han said to Zhao Xu in the reception hall of the palace.

After arriving in Yancheng, he first went to see Zhao Heng.

After all, the imperial decree was sent to Sizhou in the name of Zhao Heng.

After exchanging pleasantries with Zhao Heng, he was sent to the palace.

Zhao Xu glanced at the woman who was talking and laughing with Feng’er in the yard holding the baby.

He was the person who rescued Ma Han when Ma Han was assassinated, and he was the one who made an all-together pledge with him, and he was also the person Ma Han cherished most.

Now that Ma Han sent the mother and son to Yancheng, it can be seen that they have really made up their minds, and they will join the palace from then on.

“It doesn’t have to be like this, the king already understands your intentions, you should take the wife and the child back.” Zhao Xu poured a cup of tea for Ma Han, and Ma Han stood up to take it.

Sitting down and blowing on the hot tea, Ma Han chuckled a few times, “Your Highness, actually, I have an unfeeling request to bring my wife and youngest son here this time.”

“Oh? Tell me.” Zhao Xu looked at it He glanced at Ma Han. From the first time he saw Ma Han, he felt that this kid was a little slippery.

“Although it’s a bit high-handed, I want the dog to recognize His Highness as a foster father.” He seemed worried that Zhao Xu would be unhappy, so he hurriedly said. “Of course, I’m just talking.”

Zhao Xu was stunned for a while, then suddenly laughed, he pointed at Ma Han and said: “You are going too far, this king is not married yet, and I don’t have a son or a daughter. First, I have an extra godson.”

Then, he pondered for a while, then slapped the table, “Forget it, if you, Ma Han, can hand over the love of your life to this king, so what if the king recognizes a godson?”

Ma Han was overjoyed when he heard the words, His excited lips trembled, “Your Highness, did you really agree?”

Zhao Xu nodded, “It’s hard to follow a gentleman’s word, when did this king lie to you?”

“Hahaha…” Mahan laughed out loud.

He quickly arrived in the courtyard, dragged his wife over, and said to her: “His Royal Highness Yan has agreed, and His Highness will be Lin’er’s adoptive father from now on.”

Ma Han’s wife is also a delicate person, she said to Zhao Xu After saluting, with a happy expression on her face, she said: “Your Highness, Lin’er is still young, if you can’t serve tea and kowtow to Your Highness, let me do it for you.”

After finishing speaking, she took up Ma Han’s teacup and presented it to Zhao Xu.

Zhao Xu glanced at Ma Han, only to see Ma Han nodded sharply.

In desperation, he had no choice but to accept the teacup, and then Mahan’s wife asked him to kowtow three times to him with the child in her arms.

After saluting, Mrs. Ma Han said to the baby in her arms: “Lin’er, from now on, His Royal Highness King Yan will be your adoptive father, and no one in the world will dare to bully you from now on.”

After saying this, the three of them They laughed at the same time.

Zhao Xu shook his head, “I really don’t know whether I have made a profit or a loss.”

While talking and laughing, he and Ma Han had already completed a fair transaction.

Ma Han put his wife and young son as hostages in Yancheng, and he recognized Ma Han’s son as his adopted son.

In this way, as long as he, Ma Han, does not betray the palace, his Ma family will be able to use this child as a bond to maintain a close relationship with the palace in the future.

After chatting and laughing for a few more words, Ma Han asked his wife to leave first, and then got to the point with Zhao Xu, “Your Highness, I have one more thing to do this time, which is about the issue of the Ma family. , their life will be difficult in the future, which may lead to chaos in Sizhou.”

Zhao Xu nodded, he naturally knew that all the powerful families in the world regarded him as a public enemy.

It’s normal for the nobles under the Ma family to be afraid of him.

However, he has already set a strategy against the rich in Yanzhou. If he changes, he will lose the popular support of the people of Yanzhou.

This is a thunder pool, and it must not be crossed.

So he will not allow the rich to occupy a large amount of land.

So he said: “Isn’t this king’s example not enough for you to know whose side you should stand on? Although you lost the support of the wealthy family, you have gained the support of countless people at the same time. If you gain, you will lose, fish and bears You can’t have it at the same time.”

“You can’t have both the fish and the bear’s paw!” Ma Han’s whole body was shocked when he heard the words, although the words were simple, they made sense in the world, he couldn’t want everything.

Looking at King Yan, he secretly said: “That’s right, why did King Yan rise?” Isn’t it through suppressing the rich and supporting the common people to achieve today’s achievements? Hades can do this, why can’t his Ma family do the same? After thinking about this, Ma Han nodded slowly, and finally made a decision in his heart, ”

I understand. ”

Zhao Xu nodded. To him, it was a small Sizhou. With all its wealthy families, he could crush him to death with one finger.

But he felt that Ma Han could handle these matters by himself, and he didn’t need to intervene in person.

Otherwise If you can’t do this well, what is the value of him and yourself?

So, after pondering for a while, he said to Ma Han: “Actually, this king cares more about whether you will or not than sending your wife and children to Yancheng. Reached an agreement with the king on the issue of the Hao family. ”

Having said so far, there is no need to say any more.

With a serious expression on his face, Ma Han stood up and cupped his hands to Zhao Xu, and said: “Your Highness just wait for my good news. Zhao Xu also patted him on the shoulder, encouraging him, ”

This king will not let an enemy go, but he will not lose anyone who has made meritorious service to this king.” Ma Han was relieved for a while, said

his goodbyes, saluted, and turned to leave.

However, he still did not take away his wife and youngest son.

Zhao Xu had to arrange a house for them and arrange guards to protect them.

Ma Han was sorry for him, Naturally, he would feel sorry for Ma Han.

” Is there any movement from the sixth prince? ”

Not long after Ma Han left, Zhao Xu called Xu Hark for questioning.

“There is some movement.” Xu Ke frowned slightly, “After the imperial edict was sent to Jincheng, the sixth prince ordered people to arrest young men in Jinzhou and fill them into the army. ”

After a pause, he said, “However, the lower officials also found out some tricks, knowing why the sixth prince is so arrogant?”

“Oh?” Zhao Xu showed an interesting expression, waiting for Xu Hark’s next words.

“The lower official arranged to find a letter from Yuan Li in the eyeliner of the Sixth Prince’s mansion. After reading it, he put it back intact. In the letter, Yuan Li said that the Han family was negotiating with Dongying to deal with His Highness, and asked the Sixth Prince to be on the west side. Cooperate with them to create momentum.”

“If His Royal Highness is eliminated, the Qi State will take over the world in the future, and the Han family promises that the sixth prince will become the king of a different surname in the Qi State and guard Jinzhou for generations.” Xu Ke said slowly.

Zhao Xu showed a disdainful smile, and he said: “In this case, I don’t need to be polite to him anymore, it’s time to get rid of him.”

At this moment, countless sixth princes bullied the ninth prince when they were in the capital screen.

He knew in his heart that the sixth prince had a ghost in his heart, and he must also know that he would not tolerate him.

Therefore, he firmly invested in the Han family.

But no matter how he chooses, for Zhao Xu, he is going to a dead end.

The world is in chaos, and all heroes are rising together. From now on, he will liquidate his enemies one by one.
