Pei Qing finally agreed to Ma Chao's request and appointed Ma Chao as the assassin of Yongzhou, so that he could succeed his father to Yongzhou to take office.

Ma Chao naturally thanked Pei Qing and swore allegiance to Pei Qing.

After Ma Chao left, I saw Tang Bohu come to Pei Qing and said: "Lord, Ma Chao is proud of his martial arts and has a high reputation among the Qiang people, he is now in Chang'an as a proton, like a tiger in a cage, and now let him go to Yongzhou, it is equivalent to returning to the mountain, and the lower officials think that once he leaves, there will be rebellion in the future." ”

Pei Qing sighed when he heard this: "Ma Chao avenged his father's funeral, this is filial piety, if I block it, it will damage my reputation, such a thing can't be done, besides, I believe that Ma Chao is not a person who does not distinguish between right and wrong, I have done my best to him now, if he still insists on rebelling, then I can't blame me." ”

"......" Tang Bohu was very surprised by Pei Qing's words, he didn't expect Pei Qing to say this, but Pei Qing also made sense, maybe he was a little too worried, right?

However, Tang Bohu didn't see it, but Hu Zhao, who was dealing with various affairs without distractions by Pei Qing's side, had his eyes flashing.

With Hu Zhao's shrewdness, of course, he knew that Pei Qing had calculated everything before Ma Chao asked him, although now Ma Chao would get Yongzhou, and there was a great possibility that he would break his oath and lead the people to rebel, but this was nothing to Pei Qing at all, and it was even what Pei Qing was looking forward to, because if Ma Chao did not rebel, Pei Qing would not have an excuse to completely occupy the entire Yongzhou, and now the entire Guanlong region is left with Yongzhou still in a state of semi-separation, and Pei Qing has long felt unhappy about this.

In fact, the most powerful thing about Hu Zhao is Tao Hui, this Tao Hui is not only to conceal his ability, but more importantly, he doesn't say many problems even if he understands them, and in the specific strategy, he doesn't like those upright Yang schemes, what he is best at is all kinds of conspiracies, what benevolence and righteousness are at most just on the lips, as for what intentions are vicious, and he doesn't care about doing things like Tianhe.

Or to put it in a word, Hu Zhao likes domineering, not king, which is completely different from the concept expounded in the Confucian classics he usually reads, and the contradictions embodied in him are extremely surprising.

Hu Zhao has already seen that Pei Qing respects Ma Chao's filial piety on the surface, but in fact he is learning from Zheng Zhuanggong, acquiescing in or fueling Ma Chao's ambitions, and then raising troops to fight after his ambitions are exposed, so as to end the separatist situation in the Yongzhou region, including the Longyou region.

For this idea, Hu Zhao is in favor of his heart, he doesn't care about benevolence, righteousness and morality, as long as it is effective, now Ma Teng has been stabbed, this is a great opportunity, and he must not give up, Ma Chao thinks he has a plan, but in the end he can only marry someone, what an interesting thing should this be?

Hu Zhao's expectation is good, Pei Qing is now thinking like this, he is not a person who eats the ancients, he can not only stand on the moral high ground in this matter, but also obtain tangible benefits, why not?

As for this Ma Chao, anyway, his current loyalty is only 50, and since he is not loyal to himself, he is not sorry for him.

The most important thing is that now Ma Chao's younger siblings are all hostages in Chang'an, and once he rebels in the future, it will be equivalent to disregarding the lives of his younger siblings, which is indeed very unkind.

But Pei Qing knew that in history, Ma Chao did do this, and as a result, his father Ma Teng and his younger brothers were all killed, and only in the romance in order to beautify his identity as a five tiger general and highlight Cao Cao's cruelty, it was said that Cao Cao killed him first and then rebelled.

Ma Chao didn't know that his plot had been perceived by Pei Qing, and he went to Yongzhou with Pei Qing's appointment with great fanfare, and his heart was still full of pride.

"I am going, it is called the dragon returning to the sea, the tiger entering the deep mountains, I believe that in the near future, I will not only be able to restore my rule in the entire Yongzhou, but also take my sons and daughters to sweep the world!"

Ma Chao's heart was extraordinary, the Dawan BMW Shenjun under his crotch was extraordinary, and it only took half a day to arrive at Chencang.

At this time, it was Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu's uncle and nephew who guarded Chencang, since they surrendered to Pei Qing, the uncle and nephew were also loyal to the country, and guarded Chencang without regrets, and had repelled the attacks of Ma Teng's forces many times, and also quelled the rebellion of the bandits, which played a positive role in guarding the frontier and stabilizing public order.

Ma Chao relied on his identity and broke through the pass with a big horse, which naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of the guards and immediately stopped him, and the first leader said unhappily: "Do you know what place this is?" You don't dare to trespass without asking? Who are you? Why is it out of customs? Is there a way? Take out the ones that should be taken out, and then wait in line for inspection, and only after passing can you get out of the customs, otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless! ”

Of course, Ma Chao had procedures there, but he refused to take it out, sneered, stepped forward, knocked the leader to the ground with a whip, and then laughed loudly: "I was ordered by Pei Gong to go out of the customs, and even Zhang Ji didn't dare to stop me." What are you? Dare to block it? Ben will be happy today, just to teach you a lesson, next time you will be blind like this, be careful that I take your life! ”

How can the leader endure such humiliation? Immediately ordered his soldiers to surround him, and wanted to take down the troublemaker for questioning.

However, Ma Chao sneered, waved the spear in his hand and quickly knocked down more than a dozen people, and said in a good time: "I didn't kill Pei Gong for the sake of his face, otherwise you would all be dead corpses." ”

Today's chief general in charge of guarding the pass is Zhang Xiu, he saw the commotion in the direction of the pass from afar, he was very surprised, and hurriedly sent someone to inquire what happened, when he heard that the soldiers under his command were beaten by an unruly guy, he was immediately angry that a Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven, and ordered the soldiers to raise their guns and prepare horses, and went to the pass with guns and spears, and shouted at Ma Chao: "Who are you?" How dare you make a big fuss at the pass and humiliate my soldiers? ”

When Ma Chao heard this, he immediately smiled and said: "Finally, a person in charge came, I went out on business on the orders of Gong Pei, but this guy dared to stop me, and let me line up, so despised me, shouldn't I be beaten?" I'm just teaching him a lesson, and the next time I do it again, I'll kill him!" ”

At this time, he saw the leader gasping and said: "General, he just verbally said that he was going out on the orders of Pei Gong, but he was about to break in without taking out anything, how dare the last general let him out?" This guy is so rude, he will do it when he comes up, but fortunately, he will die here, otherwise he would probably die here today. ”

When Zhang Xiu heard this, he was immediately furious and said: "Even if you come by order, you must review the documents and confirm your identity before you can leave the customs, you don't follow the rules, and you beat the soldiers, you have violated the military order, how can I allow you to go wild here?" Your martial arts are amazing, aren't you? Today I want you to be taught, I don't know if you dare to teach? ”
