Chapter 43

Facing the "official certification" given by Old Dong, can Ma Teng resist this temptation?

Obviously not!

After accepting the official certification of "descendant of the Wave-Quelling General Ma Yuan".

Ma Teng will instantly become like a fish in water on that one-third of an acre in Liangzhou.

And if he doesn't accept it...

That is equivalent to implicitly admitting that he has the same identity as Han Sui, and is an absolute rebel!

Then, after Ma Teng accepts this official certification, will he become too big to be controlled?

Of course not.

Because once this news reaches Liangzhou, Han Sui and others will definitely sit on pins and needles immediately!

With the nature of this group of guys.

The next step will definitely be a civil war!

Raising troops to crusade against Ma Teng who betrayed the "rebel class"!

……

PS: Handsome readers, besides Ma Chao, Ma Tie, Ma Xiu, and Ma Dai, the Ma Teng family also has a little sister, Ma Yunlu. (Crazy hint)

Seeking flowers and evaluation tickets!.

"This is a brilliant scheme!".

"But Ma Teng will definitely not be able to refuse!"

The two poisonous strategists, Jia Xu and Li Ru, the more they thought about it, the more they felt that this fellow Gu Yi had a lot of bad water in his stomach!

Although Ma Teng and Han Sui are sworn brothers in name.

But in fact, once these two encounter conflicts of interest, they fight each other harder than anyone else.

Conferring titles on Ma Teng but not on Han Sui.

With the plastic brotherhood between Ma Teng and Han Sui, they will definitely fight each other in minutes.

"According to this plan, Liangzhou can be settled!"

"Hahahaha, Gu Yi, you are really my lucky star!"

Dong Zhuo felt deeply gratified.

The look in his eyes toward Gu Yi was full of care for his prospective granddaughter-in-law.

After setting the strategy for Liangzhou.

Old Dong intended to keep the three for dinner at the Prime Minister's residence.

But... what made Gu Yi feel puzzled was.

Li Ru and Jia Xu left one after another with an excuse.

In the main hall, only Gu Yi and Dong Zhuo were left.

Just as Gu Yi was thinking about the reason, he heard Old Dong suddenly say:

"Gu Yi, I have something I want to entrust to you."

Seeing Old Dong show a very serious expression, Gu Yi's heart couldn't help but thump.

Could it be...

This fellow Old Dong wants to adopt me as his foster son?

This is not good!

As soon as Gu Yi thought of this possibility, Lu Bu's face instantly appeared in his mind.

Although bound to the Dong Zhuo force, being Old Dong's foster son is not a good thing.

At least in Gu Yi's heart, he was resistant to this matter.

The factions within the Dong Zhuo army are intricate and complicated.

This is also an important reason for the serious internal conflicts.

But in the final analysis, the reason for this situation is that Dong Zhuo lost his first-in-line heir.

Dong Bai's father was originally the successor recognized by Old Dong and the entire Xiliang Army.

But he has passed away now.

Old Dong's other son, Dong Bai's second uncle, is also no longer in this world.

Old Dong's direct blood relatives, besides his two daughters Dong Yuan and Dong Yi, only have this granddaughter Dong Bai left.

If Dong Bai were a boy, he would definitely be appointed by Old Dong as the successor to the Xiliang Army.

But unfortunately, Dong Bai is not.

The problem comes.

Under such a situation.

Who should inherit Old Dong's family business?

The first-in-line heirs (two biological sons) have all passed away.

The second-in-line heirs are the two sons-in-law, as well as Old Dong's younger brother Dong Min.

However, there have been no children between the eldest son-in-law Li Ru and Dong Yuan for so many years.

Although the couple has a good relationship, it is true that because there are no children, Li Ru's inheritance rights have to be ranked later.

(PS: It can be assumed that one of the two is infertile.)

The second son-in-law Niu Fu and Old Dong's second daughter Dong Yi have two daughters.

Given that the two are still young and have been striving to have a son.

It is estimated that they will likely have a son in the next few years.

Looking at it this way, the second son-in-law Niu Fu should become Old Dong's heir, right?

But... Niu Fu is an absolute fool.

If he inherits the family business, I am afraid he won't even be able to handle the internal affairs of the Xiliang Army!

Historically, after Dong Zhuo passed away.

The Xiliang generals recommended Niu Fu to be Dong Zhuo's heir.

But Niu Fu was too weak and died due to a mutiny by his subordinates!

As for Old Dong's younger brother Dong Min.

Compared with Old Dong, it is like a completely opposite personality!

The strong Old Dong, relying on years of hard work, has everything he has today.

And Dong Min?

His personality is extremely weak.

As the younger brother of Dong Zhuo, the strongest warlord of the Han Dynasty, he was actually bullied by local bullies in his hometown!

From this, it can be seen that Dong Min's personality is really weak and incompetent.

If the Xiliang Army were handed over to him, I am afraid it would not be as good as handing it over to Niu Fu.

Therefore, the fact that there is no suitable heir within the Xiliang Army has always made Old Dong worried.

If Gu Yi were considered a foster son, the situation he would face would be completely opposite to Lu Bu's!

What is Lu Bu?

That is the leader of the foreign faction, the Bingzhou faction!

No one within Xiliang treats him as one of their own.

Since he is not a person within Xiliang.

Then naturally, there is no inheritance right to speak of.

And Gu Yi?

Unlike Lu Bu, there is no faction behind him.

But he has a good relationship with Xiliang direct descendants like Hua Xiong and Li Ru.

If Gu Yi were considered a foster son by Old Dong.

Nominally, he would really gain a part of the inheritance rights!

But it is only nominally.

After all, this is not a biological son!
