Cao Liang returned to his room. He didn't know that his parents had already begun to think about life-long matters for him.

If he knew about it, Cao Liang would definitely feel a pain in the ass. Marriage in this era is too unreliable. Let alone free love in future generations, even if it is a blind date, the man and woman must meet each other and find it suitable before continuing the relationship.

In this era, the decision to get married basically has nothing to do with the parties involved. Many people only meet for the first time during the wedding night.

Whether you like it or not, this life is basically doomed.

Love is magical, so don't think too much about it. If you want to fall in love, that's okay. You can talk slowly after marriage. If it's suitable, everyone will be happy. If it's not suitable, then you can just make do with it.

The orders of parents, the words of a matchmaker, and the lifelong happiness of a man and a woman may all depend on someone else's thoughts.

Somehow, what came to Cao Liang's mind when he was lying on the couch was Yang Huiyu's sad and sad look. Obviously she was not satisfied with her marriage to Master Sima, but the ethics of cannibalism in this era

, leaving her no choice.

Whether she likes it or not, she cannot escape the fate of marrying into the Sima family.

Cao Liang shook his head gently. No matter what Yang Huiyu's future would be, it had nothing to do with him. Just like two infinitely extending straight lines, after an occasional encounter, there would no longer be any chance of intersection.

On the other hand, Master Sima, as his lifelong enemy, will cross paths with him more than once in the future political arena, and even on the bloody battlefield with flashes of swords and shadows.

It’s not that enemies don’t get together, such a day will come sooner or later.

But Cao Liang didn't expect that this day would come so early and in this way.

Isn't it said that Sima Master Shen Yi is generous, indistinguishable from emotion to anger, and is a very profound person? It seems that the rumors may not be true. When he feels that he is being "greened", he will also have the anger of ordinary people.

, they will also take revenge like ordinary people.

After today, Cao Liang and Sima Shi are destined to become a pair of never-ending rivals.

In fact, Cao Liang doesn't care about this result. What should come will always come. It's like playing a single-player game. The simple mode is not challenging and the playing is not interesting. Only the difficult mode or even the hell mode can really inspire players.

potential.

Cao Liang has long regarded challenging the Sima family as a game. Even if it is a hell difficulty, there is nothing to be afraid of. As long as you play well, you can still pass the level.

After two days and one night without sleep, Cao Liang was really tired. Not long after lying on the bed, he snored and fell asleep. When he woke up in the morning, it was already three o'clock in the morning.

Oops!

Cao Liang secretly yelled, "Today is the day he and Ma Jun agreed on. Ma Jun is going to Cao's Manor in the east of the city. At this time, Ma Jun must have arrived outside the manor, right?"

Cao Liang doesn't want to be a person who breaks his promise, especially a rare technical talent like Ma Jun. If he misses it, it will make Cao Liang regretful for the rest of his life.

With Ma Jun's weird temper, if he thought Cao Liang was letting him go, he might never pay attention to Cao Liang again.

Cao Liang got dressed as quickly as possible. The maid serving him next to him wanted to help him get dressed, but Cao Liang thought she was in the way, so he simply sent her away.

After getting dressed, Cao Liang picked up the sword beside his pillow, raised the curtain and was about to go out. His mother Liu Ying came in with a smile and said: "Liang'er, wake up. Mom has cooked your favorite dish. Hurry up."

Come and have a taste.”

Cao Liang was focused on rushing out of the city and hurriedly excused himself: "Mom, I'm not hungry. Let's eat later. I have an appointment now and I have to go out in a hurry."

Liu Ying said: "But your father has ordered that you are not allowed to go there these two days except when you are on duty in the palace, so as not to cause any trouble."

Cao Liang's head suddenly got big. He didn't expect that Cao Yan would ground him because of yesterday's incident. Grounding him was a small matter, but breaking the promise was a big deal. If Ma Jun couldn't wait for him today, he would probably be completely disappointed and put himself at risk.

If you are regarded as a liar, I'm afraid there will be no chance of cooperation again in the future.

"Mom, I really have something urgent to do. I have made an appointment with someone and I have to go out. Mom, you don't want me to be a broken promise, right?" Cao Liang could only plead.

Liu Ying was in a dilemma and said: "Your father got up early this morning and rushed to the military camp outside the city. Before he left, he repeatedly told you that you were not allowed to go out. If he comes back and finds out that you went out without permission, you will definitely be punished."

"Mom, don't worry. I went out today to do legitimate things, and I will never cause any trouble again. And I will definitely be home before dark, so I won't make you worry."

Liu Ying was so entangled by him that she had no choice but to say: "Then go back quickly and don't conflict with others. Do you hear me?"

"Thank you, mother." Cao Liang thanked her and walked towards the door in a hurry.

As soon as he arrived at the door, Cao Liang saw a figure flash past him. A tall and slightly thin man appeared in front of him, which shocked Cao Liang.

"See you, Mr. Marquis." The man held a knife in his arms and bent down to salute Cao Liang, but his voice was cold, making people feel chilled.

Cao Liang was suddenly shocked. He felt that the other party looked like a killer.

"who are you?"

"His name is Fang Bu. Your father brought him back from the army. He said he would be your personal guard. From now on, he will be by your side to protect your safety at all times." Liu Ying said from behind.

Cao Liang suddenly understood. It seemed that his father Cao Yan was still a sharp-tongued man, and he cared about him very much.

After what happened yesterday, Cao Yan felt that the two followers around Cao Liang, Ah Fu and A Gui, were obviously unreliable and could not protect Cao Liang's safety at the critical moment. So he specially transferred one from the Xiaoqi camp.

Master, be Cao Liang's personal bodyguard.

After all, Cao Liang has offended the Sima family. Cao Yan's move was also to prevent the Sima family from doing harm to Cao Liang. With a master like Fang Bu protecting Cao Liang, at least his safety factor would be much higher.

Cao Liang looked at Fang Bu. Although he didn't look that strong and powerful, he looked extremely capable despite his thinness. He had a murderous aura all over his body, which made people shudder.

a feeling of.

Since it was his father's arrangement, Cao Liang had no reason not to comply. What's more, after yesterday's incident, Cao Liang really felt that he lacked someone around him. If he had brought a master like Fang Bu with him yesterday, he would definitely

He won't be so embarrassed and passive anymore.
