Chapter 227 Say it, why don’t you say it?

Chapter 227 Say it, why don’t you say it?

Seeing Chen Shi's gloating expression, Ma Su looked speechless.

Chen Shi and the others were just waiting for Ma Di to be criticized. After all, rewards based on merit and being criticized for such things are basically the time for the camp generals to take advantage of them.

Except for the parties involved...

There was nothing that could be done. The prime minister himself led his troops out, and he, Ma Su, did not dare to react. Looking at Chen Jing's military tent, Ma Su could only take a deep breath and touch it carefully.

As soon as they entered the military tent, they saw the Prime Minister sitting in the main seat, rarely closing his eyes to relax.

There was no way, Zhuge Liang came in too hasty and didn't bring any government affairs with him. For a whole month, Zhuge Liang had no time to deal with any official business.

As soon as Ma Su entered the army tent, Zhuge Liang immediately felt it and opened his eyes.

"Youchang, you're back." Zhuge Liang nodded, his expression calm with no hint of anger.

However, the more the prime minister acted like this, the more Ma Su felt unsure. With Zhuge Liang's character, he shouldn't be so calm at this time.

"Ahem...see the Prime Minister!" Ma Su saluted quickly, pretending to report respectfully.

"I heard in Chengdu that Ma Fu was brave, so he led five thousand troops to the Ziwu Valley. I wonder how many gains Ma Fu had made in more than a month?" Zhuge Liang's expression was calm and he didn't look angry at all. But with this tone, Ma Su wanted to bury his head in the soil.

"Ahem... This is not a big deal. I don't have many results, so don't talk about it!" Ma Su chose to give in and avoided it carefully.

"Say! Why don't you say it? Aren't you quite capable?" Zhuge Liang's face suddenly darkened, and he pointed at Ma Su with his feather fan and tapped lightly.

"Tell me your heroic deeds and proud achievements! Let me hear carefully how powerful the general of the Han Dynasty is, and he doesn't even obey the orders of the imperial court!"

"I asked you to guard Hanzhong, but you ran away through Ziwu Valley without even saying hello! Do you know that I can already sentence you for dereliction of duty and push you down and behead you!"

"Is the Prime Minister's Mansion too tolerant of you, so that you, Ma Youchang, think you can do whatever you want?"

"You are a minister of the Han Dynasty! Are there any such irresponsible ministers as you?..."

As he spoke, Zhuge Liang stood up, his tone getting colder and colder. From the anger revealed in his eyes, Ma Su could feel that the prime minister was really angry.

In this case, Ma Su very bravely chose... to give in.

He immediately bowed his head and acted like a cow, and just admitted his mistake no matter what Zhuge Liang said. The leader doesn't want to hear your reasons, he reprimands you and just wants to know your attitude.

Sophistry at this time basically has no use other than getting slapped.

What's more, in this case, Ma Su did take the initiative in private. If it weren't for his good luck in saving the world in his previous life, he would probably have been buried in Guanzhong with his entire headquarters.

"What's wrong? How come the general who invaded the country like fire on the battlefield has turned into a sheep here?" Zhuge Liang's anger could hardly be suppressed. At this moment, he wished he could go out and whip the boy twice.

As we all know, Zhuge Liang has always been a good old man who treats people well and has a good temper. But even such a good-tempered Prime Minister was indeed very angry today.

Although the war was won, continuing like this can even take advantage. However, the nature of what Ma Di did was so bad that it was impossible for Zhuge Liang to lift it high and put it down gently.

He did not receive military orders and then disobey them, making his own decisions to fight the war. And when the imperial court did not issue an order to send troops, he led the troops privately!

The severity of this incident was such that Zhuge Liang did not dare to hide it.

Because of this, Zhuge Liang got angry when he saw Ma Di not knowing what he was doing!

"From today on, you, Ma Su, say goodbye to the battlefield!" Zhuge Liang snorted coldly, waved his hand and asked his guard to take out a horse whip.

"Your horse, Youchang, is now the driver of my prime minister's residence! From now on, you will stay in the manger and live with your horse for the rest of your life!"

With that said, Zhuge Liang personally smashed the whip on Ma Su's chest, and his anger level had reached its peak!

"Hey, Prime Minister, please calm down! You don't have to be so angry because of me!" Ma Su quickly stood up and comforted the Prime Minister with a smile on his face.

"I can't get rid of my anger without slapping you twice myself!" Zhuge Liang's face was gloomy, and it took him a long time to sit back in his seat.

"Tell me about it! Are you out of your mind or something? Why did you suddenly come to Ziwu Valley?"

"Do you know that if you are not careful, you may be wiped out with all your troops!"

In order to support Ma Su, the Prime Minister did not even bring any government affairs, which shows how rushed he was. Such a risky thing made Zhuge Liang, who had been cautious all his life, very unhappy.

If Ma Su's reasons cannot satisfy him, Ma Su will probably have to be a groom in the future.

"Ahem... Prime Minister, in fact, a certain person has noticed the movement of the Wei army a long time ago, so he made a plan to leave Ziwu Valley in advance. But because he was marching in a hurry, he did not report it to the superiors." Ma Su immediately started talking nonsense. Completed the logical self-consistency at an extremely fast speed.

We definitely can't make the Prime Minister angry. If we really don't let him go to the battlefield after he gets angry, he won't have anywhere to cry.

"Is this why you sent out troops privately?" Zhuge Liang's eyes revealed evil intentions, and it was obvious that Ma Su's reasons could not convince him.

"Soldiers are expensive and quick. After all, I was busy chasing Cao Zhen and had no time to repay... This action was too risky and ignored the overall situation. I am sorry for your majesty, the people, and the late emperor..."

Seeing how Ma Su knew his mistake and kept apologizing, Zhuge Liang suddenly felt so angry that he couldn't vent his anger.

It seems more appropriate to give Ma Su a beating in person...

In the end, Zhuge Liang did not embarrass Ma Su. However, to be on the safe side and prevent Ma Su from escaping again, Zhuge Liang made a decision directly.

"For a long time recently, you have stopped giving me the power to use troops! I will send someone to be your supervisor. Without his nod, I can't even think of leading the troops!"

"As for your execution, His Majesty will personally handle it when you return to Chengdu!"

"Now go back to your camp and think about your faults. If you dare to take a step forward without my order, you will be the groom of the Prime Minister's Mansion for the rest of your life!"

After saying that, Ma Di was driven out of the military tent in disgrace.

However, as soon as Ma Di left the military tent, he saw more than a dozen generals, large and small, squatting outside. From Chen Shi to Liu Yin, everyone was eavesdropping carefully.

As soon as they saw Ma Su being blasted out, the group of people immediately laughed and dispersed.

There's no way around it. It's very rare for a relationship like Ma Su's to be criticized on a door-to-door basis. Who wouldn't want to eavesdrop on you once you finally meet her?

Ma Su's face turned dark at this.

Okay, okay, everyone has started watching monkeys in a civilized manner, right?
