After Zhen Mi knew about Ma Chao and the others' intentions, she was naturally a little shy, and she also knew that she was not here either, so she was smart and said goodbye to the three of them early.

At this time, Ma Chao looked at Zhen Mi's departure and said, "My son, you are now asking someone to go to the mansion for you, just to let you "helm the beauty back in the end." So when you are pregnant with a beauty in the future, you should not only not blame you, but you have to thank you for your current actions."

Ma Chao still thought so in his heart, age is not a problem. But if Zhen Mi can't marry into his own Ma family, then he will have been in vain for more than 30 years.

-----------------------------------------------------

After Zhen Mi left, Ma Chao said to Zhen Yan: "Head of Zhen, these two things are what we have to discuss today. As for how you think about it, I would like to ask everyone in your family to discuss it together. Haha, as for us, I won't be with you for the time being!"

When Zhen Yan heard this, he certainly understood and knew what Ma Chao meant. In fact, even if Ma Chao didn't say that, he had to say that to Ma Chao. But at this time, Ma Chao spoke first, which was exactly what he wanted and was exactly what he wanted, so he shouted at the door: "Come here!"

"Honor!"

The speed was very fast, and the servant came in quickly and waited for the orders of the head of the family.

Zhen Yan nodded, "Take two distinguished guests to rest, and have a good time to entertain, and there must be no mistakes!"

"promise!"

"Please, please!"

Zhen Yan didn't dare to be neglected to Ma Chao and the others, and Ma Chao and Zhao Yun also said goodbye to him for the time being.

After all, it was the family members who discussed the matter afterwards, and both of them were outsiders, so naturally they should avoid it. Ma Chao was not that annoying, and he had to listen or put pressure on others here. In fact, for him, when he went to the Zhen Mansion himself, it could be said that he had put the greatest pressure on the Zhen Yan and the Zhen family. And they could not not understand this, and the two things he said were good for both parties.

So Ma Chao is actually very confident. As long as Zhen Yan and Zhen’s family are not fools, they will naturally make their own choices. As for the engagement with Yuan Xi, in Ma Chao’s opinion, go to hell. Not to mention the engagement, even on the day of the marriage, there are still some who regret the marriage. As for Yuan Shao’s son? What are he many? Anyway, Ma Chao never took Yuan Shao and his son seriously. Really, if it were Cao Cao, he would have to pay attention to it. But Yuan Shao, haha…

-----------------------------------------------------

The servant took Ma Chao and Zhao Yun to rest. Zhen Yan made it clear that he brought two distinguished guests, so the servant naturally arranged the two in the best house, which was inevitable.

After Ma Chao and the others left, Zhen Yan specially summoned important people who could speak in the Zhen family at this time. Everyone should discuss the two things Ma Chao said together. After all, this is definitely not a trivial matter for his family, so it is really not something that Zhen Yan can say alone. In fact, for him, if his family really gets big benefits in the future, everything is easy to say. But if he doesn't get any due benefits, it is because of his own decision in the end, and he has to take responsibility.

But if everyone decides together, even though he is a family, he does not have much responsibility. But more importantly, this matter is still not a trivial matter, so he can really make the decision. The Zhen family is actually a relatively democratic family, which is not a "one-management" of the head of the family. So Zhen Yan gathered all the important people in the Zhen family together and had to discuss these two things.

-----------------------------------------------------

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Zhen Yan did not hide anything and told everyone that Ma Chao and himself had said two things. Of course, both him and other people in the Zhen family knew that the most important thing was the latter, just as Ma Chao said, and the latter became, then he would naturally cooperate with his family and take care of his family's business under his rule, but there is no need to say more about this.

After telling everyone both things, Zhen Yan asked everyone: "I wonder what everyone thinks, what Ma Mengqi said?"

When everyone heard this, they actually had their own ideas, but none of them could express their opinions easily. After all, they all knew that this matter was not a trivial matter for their family. Before, Zhen Mi and Yuan Benchu's second son Yuan Xi had a engagement, but now Ma Mengqi came to propose marriage to his son in person and wanted to get engaged, so this matter is indeed not easy to handle.

Of course, everyone was not afraid of Yuan Shao. After all, although Yuan Shao still has hundreds of thousands of soldiers under his command, Cao Cao's Yanzhou army has already made him anxious, so the engagement between his family and Yuan Xi and Yuan Xianyi was no big deal. Even if he ignored him, Yuan Benchu ​​would not be able to bring his army to Wuji. Besides, Ma Mengqi's Liangzhou army is here, so Yuan Benchu ​​and Yuan Xianyi were not worth worrying about.

The Yuan family doesn't have to think much about it, but everyone has to pay attention to Ma Mengqi, who is now visiting the mansion. After all, the army is in Wuji. If he really takes action, let alone the Zhen family, even 1,000 Zhen families will probably be destroyed in the end. After all, Ma Mengqi has done this and is a history-rich person, so everyone is quite scared.

-----------------------------------------------------

At this time, Zhen Yan saw that everyone had no reaction. When he saw that no one was talking, it was definitely not possible, so he asked again: "Everyone, this matter is related to the rise and fall of my family. You should try to tell your own thoughts as much as possible, but don't be silent!"

When everyone heard this, their head of the family was right. Such a big thing is indeed related to the rise and fall of the entire family, but...

But someone must be the first to start talking, so at this time, a clan brother of Zhen Yan spoke. Although this person is not a brother to Zhen Yan, he is still a member of the Zhen family. He is still able to speak.

He only heard him say, "Head of the family, this matter is indeed more beneficial and less harmful to my Zhen family, so I can agree to Ma Mengqi!"

He said it simply, that's what it was. For his family, marrying a strong prince like Ma Chao would definitely have more benefits to his side than to his disadvantages. Now Wuji is occupied by the Liangzhou army. Moreover, Yuan Benchu ​​is still in a hurry. Even Wei County cannot take care of it. His Jizhou army was under the attack of Yanzhou army and Liangzhou army, and he didn't know what the outcome was. It's really uncertain. So it was not that he had no confidence in Yuan Shao in the Jizhou army, but that Yuan Shao and Jizhou army did not give him any confidence.

Sure enough, his words were affirmed by Zhen Yan. The first one, his clan brother supported him, Zhen Yan was in a good mood, so he smiled and said, "That's right. My idea is exactly the same!"

When everyone heard this, the head of the family said it was actually expected. They had already seen that the head of the family actually supported it, but in the end, Zhen Mi had already had an engagement with Yuan Xi and Yuan Xianyi.

As soon as Zhen Yan finished speaking, someone said, "No matter what, many people know about our engagement with the Yuan family. How can we solve this problem?"

When everyone saw that the person who spoke was an elder of the Zhen family, who belonged to Zhen Yan's grandfather's generation, and his grandfather's younger brother.

Although Zhen Yan was the head of the family, he did not dare to neglect it, but in his heart he was disdainful. What about the Yuan family? If Yuan Benchu ​​could defeat Cao Mengde's Yanzhou army and Ma Mengqi's Liangzhou army, there might not be what he did today.

But what is going on now? Ma Mengqi's nearly 90,000 army is in Wuji. Do you dare not agree to the engagement? If Yuan Benchu ​​had hundreds of thousands of troops in Wuji, I, Zhen Yan, would definitely not agree with what Ma Mengqi mentioned today, but what is the situation now? Don't you understand?

However, as far as his elder said, Zhen Yan quickly replied: "What my second grandfather said is also good, but now Ma Mengqi is in Wuji, so we can only agree on this matter. As for the engagement with the Yuan family, offending the Yuan family is helpless. I believe that people in the world will understand it!"

Zhen Yan thought to myself, if you let the city where your family is located, there are 90,000 Liangzhou troops outside, and then Ma Chao came to the door in person and asked your daughter to marry his son, and see who dared not agree. The situation is stronger than others, and the strength is there for you. For the sake of the family, you can only agree to this path, otherwise what else can it be. What's more, this is actually a good thing for your family, and there are more advantages and disadvantages.

When Zhen Yan's second grandfather heard this, he stopped talking. He actually knew that it was imperative to marry Ma Chao now. As for the engagement with the Yuan family, to be honest, what else can be done besides breaking the contract? This is also a matter of having to do. In fact, his family did not particularly agree with the previous engagement, because Yuan Benchu ​​looked down on his family at all. But now he couldn't take care of these things. Instead, Ma Mengqiu was in a big way to fight the situation, so he could only agree to the other party.

As for breaking the contract with the Yuan family, then destroy it. If your family does not break the contract with the Yuan family, then Ma Mengqi may destroy his family. This is not impossible. After all, Ma Mengqi is not a good person. The so-called crime is to be punished, so you can only give you a crime and then lead troops into the city. You can imagine it later.

So, in fact, it is not just him, but all the Zhen family know that they must agree. If they don’t agree, they will not be able to agree. No matter from any aspect, their family must agree with what Ma Chao said today.

-----------------------------------------------------

Finally, Zhen Yan asked the most critical person, that is his mother, of course, Zhen Mi's biological mother, Zhang. His father died early, and it was his mother who pulled all his brothers and sisters to grow up. So the few of them listened to Zhang's words. So Zhang's words can basically decide how Zhen Yan should make a decision.

He asked at this time: "I wonder what my mother thinks about the younger sister?"

Zhang also knew that he was the one who decided what he wanted. To be honest, of course he knew how to choose. No matter from any aspect, he should agree to Ma Mengqi to get engaged with the Ma family earlier. As for the Yuan family, he didn't have time to care about what happened to them. And what else they could do, now they can't take care of themselves, so...

Zhang finally said firmly: "That Yuan Xi and Yuan Xianyi. I have seen him twice. To be honest, I don't think he is Mi'er's good match!"

When everyone heard this, many people stopped or nodded secretly. Indeed, everyone who has seen Yuan Xi knows that this person really has no great ability, but is inferior. So can such a person be worthy of the pearl in his family's eye? Don't think that his daughter only has excellent appearance and outstanding appearance. If you think so, you are a big mistake. The daughter from his family is definitely first-class. This is not only about appearance, but also other things.

Zhen Mi has a gentle and virtuous personality. After getting married, she is definitely a good wife and mother, and a good wife to a man. Otherwise, why did Ma Mengqi visit her in person and propose marriage for her son? Isn’t it because of this? Ma Chao made it clear that as long as the two of them get engaged, she will be the wife of her son afterwards, which shows that she values ​​Zhen Mi.

Zhang continued at this time: "Although I have never seen the son of General Cavalry, except that he is a little younger than Mi'er, I think everything else should be good. Do you think?"

Everyone quickly agreed, yes, General Ma Chao of Cavalry only has one son, the eldest son, and generally speaking, he will be the heir in the future. So it must be well trained, so no matter what, it must be stronger than Yuan Xi and Yuan Xianyi, no, everyone thinks that Zhang's words make sense, that's it.

Zhen Yan knew that his mother finally agreed and the matter was settled.

But he asked, "So according to my mother's wishes?"

Zhang said: "Of course, I agree with what Ma Mengqi said today and get engaged with the Ma family. As for the Yuan family, I don't have to manage it anymore. It doesn't matter how the people in the world look at my Zhen family. They all "stand and speak without pain in their backs." If they really encounter such a situation, they will definitely do this! And I promised Ma Mengqi that there are indeed more advantages and disadvantages to my Zhen family. Do you think?"

Everyone agreed again. In fact, in the Zhen family, although Zhang was just a woman, to be honest, she was more prestigious than the head of her son. This was true. It was not because she was a foreigner and a weak woman, she probably could have become the head of the family, rather than Zhen Yan as the head of the family.

"Okay, since my mother has said that, and everyone agrees, then let's settle this matter. My Zhen family and the Ma family are engaged and get engaged today!"

Everyone was quickly congratulating, this was a good thing, and for their family, they might get a lot of benefits. As for why, look at the Mi family, don’t you know it?

The Mi family was in Xuzhou before, and although they were quite famous in the world, they were not as famous as they are now. However, after their young lady married Ma Meng, looking at it now, although they moved their family to Liangzhou, the Mi family is indeed compared to the past, which is "even better than that."

Now that his daughter, Yu Ma's eldest son, is engaged, think that when he comes, his family will definitely not be much inferior to the Mi family. After all, everyone knows that Ma Chao will not hold the power for the rest of his life, and sooner or later he will give it to his son to inherit, so...

-----------------------------------------------------

Seeing that the matter in front of him had been resolved, Zhen Yan was happy. For him, the fact that everyone could use this matter unanimously means that his family's vision was still good. At least he knew that Yuan Benchu ​​was not as strong as Ma Mengqi now, and Ma Chao's army was in Wuji, so who dared to act rashly? People say that "those who know the times are heroes", is actually this.

Zhen Yan did not let everyone leave, but directly asked the servants to invite Ma Chao and Zhao Yun here to let everyone see each other.

It was before, and there was no agreement yet, but at this time everyone unanimously passed the marriage, so they were considered half a family. Of course, it was better for everyone to meet. Anyway, we will have to meet sooner or later, so it would be better to meet earlier than to meet later. This is Zhen Yan's idea.

In fact, he was really right. Ma Chao was just so interested. Now that the marriage has been completed, he has something else to discuss with everyone.

-----------------------------------------------------

Not long after, Ma Chao and Zhao Yun arrived.

Zhen Yan quickly invited the two of them to take their seats, but he didn't dare to neglect the two old men. Then he introduced the two and their own family to each other, and everyone greeted each other, and then Zhen Yan made a statement about his previous decision.

In fact, Ma Chao and Zhao Yun had expected it. They knew that Zhen Yan would not delay too long, so they would reply to him. As a result, it was not long before the servants came to invite the two of them.

At this time, I heard Zhen Yan say, "The general mentioned before, our Zhen family has agreed!"

Ma Chao nodded with satisfaction when he heard this. Of course, all of these were within his expectations, and he could only not know what the Zhen family could refuse this matter for. Really, if the Zhen family refused, it would surprise Ma Chao very much.

"I feel very pleased that the head of the Zhen family and everyone can do this. I have seen Mi'er before, and I am indeed my son's wife!"

When everyone heard Ma Chao say this, they all felt that there was a glimpse on their face. Ma Chao was praising their Zhen family's daughter. This meaning was very obvious. That is to say, I am very satisfied with Zhen Mi. She is my son's good match and that wife.

-----------------------------------------------------

Just as everyone was still immersed in Ma Chao's praise of Zhen Mi, Ma Chao said to Zhen Yan again. "Head Zhen, I have a request, please let the head of Zhen agree!"

When Zhen Yan and the Zhen family heard this, they asked. Now, with his status and status as Ma Mengqi and such a strong force, he could ask for his family. But no one dared to neglect this. Since Ma Mengqi could even lower his attitude, it seems that this matter is not particularly easy.

Zhen Yan smiled and said, "General, please say that as long as you can do it at home or in the family, you must do your best!"

Ma Chao nodded and thought to himself, if you say that, that would be great.

So he said, "Now that the head of the family and everyone agrees with Mi'er's marriage with the dog son, then I have an idea, which is to take Mi'er to Chang'an and hand it over to their inner son, so that they can have a good contact. I wonder what do you think of the family and everyone?"

-----------------------------------------------------

When everyone heard this, some people thought a lot, while others frowned slightly. It has to be said that what Ma Chao said was indeed not in line with the rules. After all, although the woman had an engagement with the man and got engaged, the woman moved directly into the man's house if she was not good. Although everyone knew what Ma Chao meant, this matter...

Zhen Yan glanced at his mother and knew that his mother had to make the decision.

Sure enough, Zhang said, "General, can I say a few words?"

When Ma Chao heard this, he knew that he had just introduced it. This person is Zhen Yan and Zhen Mi's mother, Zhang.

"Haha! Mrs. Zhen has something to say, let me listen carefully!"

Ma Chao is indeed quite respectful to Zhang, and he doesn't look down on him just because he is a woman.

Mrs. Zhang nodded slightly, "I dare to ask the general, why does the general have to ask Mi'er to go to Chang'an?"

When Ma Chao heard this, he sighed, and then he told everyone what he thought and Zhang.

To be honest, Ma Chao is like this, of course, it is for his own son.
To be continued...
