In the back house of Lulong's mansion, the prefect Ma Kuo sat in the study uncertainly, looking at the letter on the bookcase without blinking, and the whole person was going to suffer into his bones.

After coming down from the Wuma Cottage, he received a high courtesy from King Yan.

Thinking that the Ma family where Ma Zhi is located is looked at differently by King Yan, then you can know that this master will not push the sin of the Jin people to go south to Ma Zhi and Ma Kuo, who are the personal managers of the Maritime Alliance.

Even Ma Kuo was appointed as the prefect of Lulong because of his dealings with the Jurchens.

This Lulong Mansion is Pingzhou in the Liao people's time, subordinate to Yingzhou, Luanzhou and other places, the approximate location is the south of Shanhaiguan in later generations, west of Tangshan, and bordering the northeast.

Ma Kuo also cheered up, and devoted himself to doing a good job in his official position, fulfilling his duties, and living up to the high expectations of King Yan.

But who would have thought that a letter from the south would put him in a dilemma.

Following the opposition of the official family in the south to make the king of Yan, Ma Kuo did not do it. can report Zhao Gongchang, this is not what he wants to see.

Zhao Gongchang, a native of Yandi, a member of the Liao family, recognized the history of Jingzhou when Emperor Tianzuo was emperor. After the death of Liao, he took the opportunity to make an accident when the Yan Wangjun went north to Yanyun, and was later named the head of Lulong's soldiers and horses by Zhao Gou.

Now Zhao Gongchang has actually contacted the Zhao Guanjia in the south, and wants to take advantage of the fact that Zhao Gou's main force is in the Central Plains to take the opportunity to make trouble. This made Ma Kuo very puzzled.

First, I can't figure out how Zhao Gongchang hooked up with Nanmian, and second, I can't figure out how he dared to make King Yan's rebellion.

What if the land of Yanyun is lost? The army under King Yan is still there, and the foundation is still there. If the swallow land is lost, is it difficult for people to turn around and fight it down?

However, Ma Kuo was still determined to take it from his heart.

did not make the Yan King's rebellion, nor did he report Zhao Gongchang, and silently became a turtle with a shrunken head.

In the Commander's Mansion, Zhao Gongchang's face was gloomy, and the hall was cloudy, and Ma Kuo rejected their proposal, which forced them to the edge of the cliff at once.

Who dares to guarantee that Ma Kuo, who does not intend to cooperate with them, will really be able to keep a secret and not report it to the top?

It's a head-scratching thing.

"Father, when you are interrupted, you will continue to suffer from it. In the eyes of children, we should strike first. Take the prefect's yamen! ”

Zhao Gongchang's son said in a resolute tone.

Zhao Gongchang looked at the eunuch sitting on the left hand, this was the worship official of the Imperial City Division, and he rushed to Lu Long in person, which showed that the Imperial City Division had invested a lot of money this time.

"Ma Ziyan is stubborn, and we can't trust our plans here. According to the words of the little general, the first strike is stronger. The miscellaneous family informed people outside the pass that the golden soldiers and horses had already been waiting for them, and they would arrive at Yuguan in a few days after receiving the greeting. ”

This whole plan is not only Zhao Gongchang's, the Imperial City Division also hooked up with the Jin people, Xu Zhao Gongchang Yanguo Gonggong's position, Yongzhen Yandi, this is the right to be a feudal town. Such a temptation can't help but Zhao Gongchang is not moved, not to mention that Zhao Gou has been going south for many days, but he has not yet taken Bianliang City, which is also a fact.

Zhao Gongchang didn't think that Zhao Gou was fishing, and he didn't believe the news and rumors from the south, but he trusted the nonsense in the mouth of the Imperial City Division.

Or that he knows that Yandi is empty, as long as he can open Yuguan and let the Jin people in, it will be difficult to take many state capitals and cities for a while, but he can also make the iron horses of the Jin people gallop across the country.

In this way, Chen Yubu, who is connected to Zhongshan Mansion, and other people with lofty ideals who have been inspired by the 'great righteousness', can King Yan still be good?

And this is Zhao Huan's overall plan!

All aspects involved are far from being a lonely Zhao Gongchang.

The rules were set, and Zhao Gongchang returned to the study with his son, he was over forty years old, but he was just such a son.

The Zhao family's father and son, whose faces were still gloomy in the hall, were full of irrepressible joy when they arrived in the study.

"Ma Kuo is really the lucky star of my Zhao family. Such a good thing sent to the door, he actually refused...... "Zhao Shunquan didn't know how to evaluate Ma Kuo.

"It's just that I was stunned by Zhao Jiu'er's momentum." Zhao Gongchang is really happy to see Ma Kuo's choice, so that he can become the only one in Yandi. "But my father and son should be quick to prepare, and the provincial horse will come back to his senses. He is a native of the south, and the Zhao official family will definitely be able to trust him more. ”

Zhao Shunquan nodded again and again, this is the reason. If it weren't for Ma Kuo's refusal twice before and after, the Imperial City Si Yan would have offered such conditions to their father and son?

And when Lulong Mansion was overcast, hundreds of miles away in Qingyuan Mansion, an old man who was over half a hundred years old was steadily rushing towards the mountains.

With the great battle against bandits in Hedong, Hebei, the bandits and robbers in the state capitals are nine out of ten, but if you want to completely eradicate the bandits, it is impossible.

Qingyuan Mansion, that is, where Wang Yuan and Han Shizhong were stationed earlier, leans on Taihang in the west, the mountains are high and the forests are dense, and there have been no bandits from ancient times to the present.

There are bandits in that there today, too.

Although they have taken refuge in the mountains, and they dare not go down to plunder, there are always people who can easily contact them.

Right now, this old man surnamed Li is one of them.

Li Kuang's ancestors are all from Qingyuan Mansion, and he has been cultivating for generations, and his family background is quite solid.

In his generation, the ancestral tomb smoked, it turned out to be a seed of reading, Chongning (1102 to 1106) in Tokyo in the Jinshi, and then mixed in the officialdom for more than 20 years, to Zhao Huan ascended the throne after returning to his hometown, and now it is already eight out of fifty.

To say that this Li Kuang is also a person who has seen the world, and he can enter the high school, it shows that he is not stupid. But he just couldn't see it.

As the Li family's acres of land were confiscated by the government, and a large amount of money and grain was confiscated, Li Kuang's boundless hatred for Zhao Gou rose in his heart.

Maybe the biggest reason why he has come to this day is that Zhao Gou didn't give him an official.

Why was this man dismissed and returned to his hometown? That's because this birdman abandoned the city when the Jin people went south, and after the liquidation, he was naturally deposed from his official position.

But Li Kuang didn't think so.

He only saw a few officials who had returned to their hometowns like him, and they were all invited to become officials again. He himself doesn't have this blessing, he is not yet sixty, he can work for the Great Song Dynasty for another twenty years. Then I don't have the slightest good impression of Zhao Gou. But he didn't believe that the people he looked at were all dismissed for something!

If he is instigated by the Imperial City Division, then he will not take active action.

first connected a few people who had the same fate as him, and then hooked up with Liang Pin in Dun and the mountain.

The latter is said to be a native of the Daimyo's Mansion, and he worked as a guard teacher for a large family earlier, but because he coveted the beauty of the master's wife, he had thoughts that he shouldn't have, and did evil things, and he had nowhere to tolerate it, so he could only fall into the grass.

When the Xuanhe Rebellion was made, he also participated in it, and after the defeat, he led the remnants of the army to flee into Dunhe Mountain, recovered the small villages around him, and occupied the mountain as the king, and it was not a year or two to entrench himself in the territory of Qingyuan Mansion.

Wang Yuan had the intention to exterminate him, but this guy was hiding in the mountains, and the Song army was helpless. There is a group of minions in the mountains, nothing to rob the merchants, and if there is something to do, they will take refuge in the mountains, not to mention that the Song army has no choice but to do it, that is, Zhao Gou ordered bandits to be suppressed everywhere before, Liang Pin has not suffered heavy losses, and it is said that he is at ease hiding in the mountains.

In the left and right state capitals and counties, everyone knows that there are robbers under Liang Pin who dare to kill, and Li Kuang wants to 'set things right', so don't you just take a look at this team.

It's not once or twice that the two have secretly worked together, and now that the poor dagger is seen, it's time to see blood. Li Kuang personally came to the cottage to take a walk.

This is An Liangpin's heart, and the second is to make Li Kuang feel at ease.

It's going to be a big deal, this is a business of raiding the family and exterminating the clan, it's not good to take a look at the capital, and don't realize the power of a handful of capital in hand, Li Kuang is also worried in his heart.
