Chapter 94 Why are you so scared (please vote for me)
Seeing that Ma Su was completely unafraid of death, Li Yan was basically sure that the other party was absolutely confident.
This is definitely Zhuge Villager's back-up plan. That old man has always been on guard against me!
It is estimated that what he did has been noticed by Zhuge Liang a long time ago, and he plans to give himself a beating. Moreover, he probably also discovered that he had sent people to monitor Wang Ping, Wei Yan and others, so he secretly contacted Ma Su to handle the matter.
I have to say that Zhuge Liang is really cunning, and he discovered his own loopholes as soon as he made a move.
"Ma Youchang! You win!" Li Yan gritted his teeth and stared at Ma Su closely.
"Put down the ledger and just tell me what you plan to do!"
"Haha..." Ma Su's face was cold, and he rushed towards Li Yan with a big mouth!
"Longyou is the territory that the Prime Minister and tens of thousands of Shu lieutenants fought hard to regain. In order to stabilize the hearts and minds of these hundreds of thousands of people, the Prime Minister works hard and does everything himself!"
"In order for the people to have enough to eat, the Prime Minister works until late at night every day. Why did I risk my life for the people's livelihood in Longxi County?"
"For Li Shijun, I can eat and drink well in Tianshui County and strive for a good reputation!"
"You presume to be the minister of Tuogu, and you presume to be called a gentleman!"
Ma Su's sudden big mouth almost stunned Li Yan. No one had dared to attack him for many years.
Back in Jiangzhou, anyone who disobeyed his orders was beheaded by him, let alone slapped. Today, Ma Di not only insulted him in public, but also slapped him directly in the mouth.
Can this be tolerated?
A surge of anger suddenly surged up, and Li Yan immediately planned to draw his sword.
But soon his anger dissipated, because Ma Su drew his sword before him.
"Come! If Li Shijun thinks what Su said is wrong, come and show it!" Ma Su drew his sword and looked at Li Yandao without any fear.
Ma Di has always been unhappy with Li Yan. This greedy thing is the laughing stock of Shu officials. When he learned that the food he had saved up while working hard in Longxi County was being embezzled by this guy, Ma Su couldn't bear it.
If he hadn't been worried about the close proximity of the Wei army, and if killing Li Yan now would easily spoil the battle in Longyou, Ma Su would not have slapped him loudly, but would have directly raised his sword.
At worst, a life-for-life would be more suitable than Li Yan, the governor of Yongzhou who would be more stable.
The generals Wang Pingping and others who were watching were stunned and felt very unbelievable.
Has the struggle between the Jingzhou faction and the Dongzhou faction reached this point? The two sides even drew their swords to confront each other, almost tearing each other apart.
The conflict between the two was irreconcilable from the beginning.
Ma Su's behavior was obviously completely unexpected by Li Yan, but at this moment he had regained consciousness.
The other party came here just to find trouble, and planned to take advantage of this to make things worse and attack him, Li Yan. Otherwise, Ma Su would not have acted so rudely if he had just beaten him.
If he, Li Yan, took advantage of this to attack Ma Su, the Jingzhou faction would definitely make a big deal out of it.
When the secret possession of grain and soldiers is found out, Li Yan will never be able to stand out again in his life.
That's right, Li Yanhao hid Xuanjia and other things in a place that Ma Su didn't find out. He had something big to plot.
In fact, it doesn't matter whether Ma Su dies or not. What matters most is the reaction of the Jingzhou faction behind him. With Zhuge Liang in power these years, Li Yan's prestige has been very low, and many of his colleagues in the Dongzhou faction no longer recognize him.
For example, Wu Yi didn't like him very much. He had never visited him since he came to Yongzhou to take office. Yang Yi and Wei Yan even said nothing to bring him back, leaving him, the governor of Yongzhou, with only Tianshui County as his actual power.
If not, he, Li Yan, would not be interested in Chen Cang.
If this matter continues to become such a big deal and all these private things are uncovered, Li Yan may be afraid that his career will end here.
"Ma Su! I don't know about this matter. It was probably done by Cang Guan privately. If you want to find out, you can take someone to Tianshui County to find out!"
Li Yan took a deep breath, his face was dark but he was not angry, but said calmly.
"Now that the Wei army is right in front of us, you are violating military orders like this. Do you think you are treating national affairs as child's play? I won't argue with you today because of the war. Let me talk about anything else when I get back to Xi County."
"Leave Chencang with your troops and go back to Longyou. You really embarrass the Prime Minister!"
After saying that, Li Yan walked away so fast that Ma Su didn't even react.
Just kidding, if he runs too slowly and Ma Su comes up with another big mouth, Li Yan will really not be able to get off the stage.
He had to take action but couldn't do it, and the matter must not cause a big fuss. Li Yan could only endure this dumb loss. Anyway, the term of office is still long, and this revenge will be avenged sooner or later. Now is not the time for important matters.
Ma Su was stunned when he saw Li Yan being humiliated in public and then running away without fighting back.
Why is Li Yan so cowardly? Why doesn't he take action even after being humiliated like this?
Don't people in this era pay great attention to integrity? Why can Li Yan endure this?
Seeing the confrontation between General Li Yan and General Fenwei Ma Di, Li Yan finally gave in, which was seen by many generals who were secretly observing. The dignified governor of Yongzhou was forced to retreat by a Longxi prefect. This is something that many people cannot believe.
But that's what happened. Li Yan did not dare to take action against Ma Su or even hold Ma Su accountable. Just after returning to Chencang, he immediately ordered Ma Su to go back to Longyou and not to interfere with military affairs in Chencang.
This also means that Li Yan has given up.
This signal made many people excited and began to think about what would happen next.
But these have nothing to do with Ma Su. At this moment, Ma Su is still scolding Li Yan for being cowardly.
"General, what should we do? Stay here or..." Shu Ji asked cautiously.
"Leave and go back to Longyou to find out the grain that Li Yan embezzled." Ma Su, who returned to the camp, shook his head and made a decision.
"We can't waste time here with Li Yan. Our goal is to get the grain back. Longyou is already poor. In the coming year, I also plan to repair roads and canals in Longxi County. Each county may not have sufficient food."
"If Li Yan is given time to prepare and hides the stolen food, what's the point of making this fuss?"
Compared with Li Yan, who thinks about who is plotting against him in everything he does, Ma Su has a single-minded mind.
Even if he stayed and continued to make things worse, it would only force Li Yan to be dismissed.
But being dismissed is of no use. If the privately stored grain cannot be recovered, wouldn’t it be in vain? With so many things, can you just resign and run away?
Anti-corruption and the pursuit of stolen goods are the most important thing!
What's more, internal fighting also depends on the occasion. Li Yan is determined to fight in Chencang. If he fights with him here, Wei Jun will be happy.
Shuhan is a small country, but its internal conflicts are very acute. The fight between the three major factions has reached a point where people and things are wrong.
Alas, another day of missing the Prime Minister...
Hum hum ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
