Chapter 7 Liars
What is supposed to come will come, and Ma Jun was caught off guard by such a major event in Xiongzhen.
After Huaiyi explained what happened, there was a buzz in his head and he fell headlong into the snow.
"The situation is not yet over, but the middle path collapsed first. What happened to our Renyi Village?"
A mouthful of blood spat out slowly in the snow. Following this shrill and desperate roar, the brothers who were waiting in the hall to celebrate the Midday Festival hurried out after hearing this sound.
The scene suddenly became chaotic, and the entire Renyi Village was in chaos.
In the afternoon, Ma Jun gradually woke up, and his brothers suddenly gathered around him.
"Call Huaiyi, call Huaiyi!"
"Leader, I..."
Huaiyi squeezed out from the crowd with his head hanging down all the time. The brothers thought that Huaiyi had angered the leader, so they all expressed their displeasure and criticized him.
"Brothers, I'm sorry for the postponement of the Midday Festival celebrations. Please go back to your house and wait for now. Brother Huaiyi and I have something to say!"
The more people there were, the more chaotic it became. After Ma Jun explained, the brothers had to leave one after another.
"The Cuiyu Tea House can be called an important business line of my Xiongzhen. Now it is burned down because of the words on the banner. Huaiyi, please tell me exactly who instigated this.
thing, who wants to slander me, the villager? Are what they say true?"
"When I came here, I heard them say that the news came from the shopkeeper of Qingbo Restaurant, as well as the three heroes of the Yan family and the horse dealer leader Sai Bo Le! They also said that they had sufficient evidence!"
Just like a wake-up call, Ma Jun immediately recalled Jinggan's joyful appearance when he was sent as an envoy to Lanfeng County several times before.
But at this time, something like this happened suddenly, and Ma Jun still had some doubts about Jinggan's theory of collaborating with the enemy.
Because the things the three of them have experienced together since they were young have always made him afraid to easily determine the true situation of this matter.
"Call the master!", he shouted casually with his eyebrows lowered. When Huaiyi accepted the order and was about to leave, he changed his words and said: "Wait, you go and call the scholar alone!"
To truly understand Ma Jingqian, one must be a scholar. And he could also tell the difference between his master Xu Yuan and Jingqian's many conflicts, and it was the private dissatisfaction between the two of them who said too much.
He quickly straightened up his demeanor, got up from his bed, walked to the Grand Master's chair in the main hall, and specially put on a white robe.
At this time, the scholar was still anxious because the leader suddenly fainted, and kept pacing back and forth in the room.
"Xiucai, please stop wandering around, okay? There should be no problem when Mada wakes up!"
Jingqian, Songren, and Dongqing brothers were also staying in the scholar's room. They also urgently needed to know what happened suddenly.
The door opened with a creak, and several people immediately panicked. The scholar hurriedly walked to the front of the hall, and saw a person walking in a hurry at the gate.
"Huai Yi, please tell me what's going on. Today is the Midday Festival!"
Huaiyi opened the door and glanced at the other brothers who were also in the hall. Then he clasped his hands and said to the scholar: "Don't be anxious, everyone. Mada Ma is looking better now and invited me to come and invite the scholar to the hall to see him alone!
"
When the brothers heard this, they felt a lot relieved. The scholar took the cotton robe from the bedside and put it on, and hurried out the door before Huaiyi.
Huaiyi's face looked particularly solemn when he went out. The moment he closed the door and left, he raised his eyes and glanced at Jinggan.
In the past, there was no trace of despair in Huaiyi's eyes, but this time when he left, the look made Jingqian uneasy for a long time.
As soon as the scholar pushed the door open and entered, Ma Jun personally greeted him and took off the scholar's robe.
Then he moved the brazier in front of him closer, and then slowly spoke.
"Do you know why I asked you to come here today?"
The sudden kindness made Xiucai feel like the past again. He smiled easily and picked up the roasted potatoes from the side of the brazier. "The leader is a bit unaccustomed to this!"
Because he had been estranged from these old brothers for a long time, when the scholar said his joking words, Ma Jun suddenly felt a little disappointed. He took the half potato that the scholar had broken open and choked up.
"I know that some things I did may not be in line with our brothers' original intentions, but there is nothing I can do about it in this world!" After explaining his pain, he took a bite of potato and sighed. He looked at the plaque in the hall and said, "As a leader, is it necessary for me to know my brothers? As for right and wrong, you say scholar, should I consider it more?"
It seems easy, but from the scholar's point of view, fantasy is just fantasy after all. The Martha who was once like a brother and sister no longer exists, and there is only a majestic leader full of scheming.
At this time, the scholar no longer had any intention of reminiscing about the past, and said bluntly: "Chief, you can ask whatever you want. We are all brothers. There is nothing we can't say."
"Well, he's still the scholar he was back then!" Ma Jun also heard the meaning of the scholar's words. He threw the potato he took a bite back into the brazier, stood up slowly, and walked toward the hall's seating area. Go, "I have discussed it with Miss Qiu Ying. We are both grown up, and we have to make a decision on the marriage. I want to complete this matter in the twelfth lunar month!"
"What does the leader mean?"
"Miss Qiu Ying comes from a well-known qi sect and can be said to be an upright person in the world. This matter has been settled. As for you and Jing Gan, I am still a little worried. As the leader, how can I only think about myself? Do you have anyone you like at the moment? If the girl likes you, can I personally propose marriage to you two?"
Inexplicably, Ma Jun suddenly said these words, which made the scholar a little at a loss, "The leader has a strong reputation. Naturally, brothers can also expect you to marry Miss Qiu, but I haven't yet. Intend."
"No? Respectable, right? You don't know?"
Suddenly, Ma Jun ducked out of the way, his eyes full of strangeness, and he sneered at the scholar and asked.
It turns out that after all, it was because of Ma Jingqian's conflict with the Manchus.
Although the scholar had already had bad expectations after learning about Ma Jingqian and Tie Yuer, they were brothers who had died after all, so how could they interfere too much in such a life-long event.
It's just that this happened suddenly, but Ma Jun got wind of it. The scholar was so frightened that he dropped the potato on his hand. Then in order to cover up his panic, he quickly picked up the potato and said with an embarrassed smile: "This potato is too hot to touch." Already."
"Yeah, how can things picked out from the fire not burn your hands? Sometimes if you swallow them accidentally, your throat will burn!"
The voice was full of dissatisfaction with Jingqian and Manqing's secret love. The scholar quickly stood up and swallowed the steaming potato in one gulp, and said angrily: "No... don't burn it. Although the scholar doesn't know what it is, I know it." , that is something that one cannot give in even if it involves going to the sword or into the sea of fire! If it involves Jianghu affairs, it is even more impossible! This is the cleanest and most free-spirited thing for two people to be happy!"
When the matter reached this point, the scholar could no longer imitate other brothers' words of greasing the soles of his feet, and Ma Jun gradually showed anger after hearing what the scholar said.
He directly threw the piece of cloth in front of the scholar, "Why are you panic? So you are also panicking, scholar? Since you have said it, you might as well take a look at this! How dare you openly lie to me, let me ask you about the great things.
