With that, the girl hurried away without looking back. Ma Zongheng looked at it stupidly, at this moment, as long as he was allowed to take a look at it, even if he had to face thousands of troops, he would not hesitate to do it.

Obviously, Mr. Ma has once again fallen into the magic of love, and this time he has been hit by an incomparable impact. Liu Xueyu has unparalleled beauty, innate nobility, and outward delicateness, all of which make Ma Zongheng unforgettable. Ma Zongheng didn't even know how he found Tianshang Palace. The people of Tianshang Palace, seeing that Ma Zongheng was holding Zhang Rang's card order, did not dare to make it difficult, Ma Zongheng took over the official mansion and Wenling from there and rushed to Qilong Mansion.

As Liu Xueyu said, the Qilong Mansion covers a huge area, accounting for almost one-third of the court in the northeast area of the entire palace. All because there is also a wide sandy area in this Qilong Mansion, the horses can be seen at a glance and know that it is used to train horses. It's just that what makes Ma Zongheng feel extremely strange is that there are only two people in this huge Qilong Mansion, one named Wang He and the other named Zhang Kun, both of whom are men in their thirties. Wang He and Zhang Kun saw that Ma Zongheng was extraordinary, and they also knew that he was a member of the Fufeng Ma family, and there seemed to be more support from the general He Jin behind him, how dare they offend, and after bowing their heads and bowing, Ma Zongheng asked the two about the recent situation of Qilong Mansion. I heard that more than ten years ago, because the Son of Heaven rode a horse to hunt, a group of imperial relatives and courtiers were in love with him, and at that time, the whole Luoyang was still quite popular with horseback riding, and the Qilong Mansion was also very prosperous. But since the Son of Heaven fell ill two years ago, the Qilong Mansion has been much colder, and the treasury is tight, the Qilong Mansion is originally managed by hundreds of people, but under the repeated cuts, there are only two of them left. But what made them complain was that although the number of horses in the Qilong Mansion had decreased a lot, they still remained at more than a few dozen, and these horses were extremely valuable, and in their words, each of them was much more valuable than their lives. The two of them did not dare to be negligent in the slightest, and they have been conscientious in the past two years, from day to night. Among them, Wang He is responsible for feeding the horses, and Zhang Kun is responsible for treating the horses. The two of them have worked hard over the years, but they are both proficient in their industry.

Of course, from their words, Ma Zongheng heard their complaints. Now Mo said that the palace, and even the entire imperial court, are almost controlled by eunuchs. They didn't have the courage to ask the eunuchs of Tianshang Palace to send more people, and they could only hope that Ma Zongheng, a lord who was far more noble than them.

Ma Zongheng looked at the two of them with sad faces, and didn't care whether it could be done or not, and first smiled and comforted: "You two have worked hard for many years, I really wronged you two." Tomorrow I will give advice to the Tianshang Palace and ask them to send some people over. ”

As soon as Ma Zongheng's words came out, Wang He and Zhang Kun couldn't help but be overjoyed. At this moment, suddenly seven or eight little eunuchs who were about seventeen or eighteen years old rushed over, and when they saw the horses, they bowed in unison, and said in unison that Zhang Changshou had specially sent them over to assist in the daily management of Qilong Mansion. Ma Zongheng was a little shocked when he heard this. Wang He and Zhang Kun were excited, and hurriedly greeted them with a smile, and without waiting for Ma to open his mouth, they had already begun to allocate positions.

Zhang Rang had nothing to do, and he didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd. But his good days are not long. Before this, I will spend some leisure time in this Qilong Mansion, and at the same time, I can also have a relationship with the future princes such as Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, understand their temperament, and if they are enemies in the future, they can also know themselves and the enemy. What's more, Luoyang has gathered a lot of heroes, and I can also take the opportunity to win over and strengthen my team! Ma Zongheng's eyes were shining, and he secretly slandered, this heart must be in his heart, and the whole person was a lot more relaxed. At this time, he thought about it, it was not too early, and thinking that he and Yuan Shao still had an agreement, so he threw the matter of job deployment to Wang He and Zhang Kun, who were excited, and he went back first.

On the way, Ma Zongheng passed by the flower garden where he had just met Liu Xueyu, stayed for a while, and saw that Liu Xueyu did not appear, so he left quite disappointed.

When Ma Zongheng came to Yuan Shao's mansion, it was already dusk. Yuan Shao didn't mind, greeted him very warmly, led the horse to the hall, and then sat down by himself. Ma Zongheng saw that there was a person sitting on the left seat, with a proud face, two whiskers, and a strange appearance, and from his two fox-like eyes, he knew at first glance that he was a person with a lot of slippery heads.

"Hehe, this person's name is Xu You, who is a famous person in Nanyang, not only well-read, but also wise. Since childhood, he has been friends with me and Aman. Not long ago, I left Luoyang, and when I returned this morning, I heard about the deeds of Brother Ma, and I was very curious and interested in getting acquainted with you. Brother Ma won't mind, right? Yuan Shao said with a smile. Ma Zongheng heard that this person was Xu You who made Yuan Shao's soldiers defeat Guandu, and he was surprised for a while, and looked at Xu You for a while. Xu You only felt that Ma Zongheng's behavior was extremely rude, and secretly scolded Fanren, but he stood up again, and said with a smile: "Fortunately, fortunately." Ma Gongzi really looks like a talent, Kong Wu is powerful, no wonder he can shock Xiliang. Ziyuan, admire~! Admire~! ”

"The gentleman praised it falsely. Ma was just a fluke. Ma Zongheng has never had a good impression of this kind of lackey who sells for glory, although Xu You switched to Cao Cao because he saw that he had lost his status by Yuan Shao's side and was not valued by him. But as long as you are familiar with that period of history, you know that the more important reason is that Xu You was found out by Yuan Shao at that time that he and his relatives had a lot of private activities in Jizhou. Xu You was afraid that he would be punished by Yuan Shao, so he defected to Cao Cao overnight. And when he came to Cao Cao's command, he relied on his own merits, no one in his eyes, and even his own lord Cao Cao dared to scold him after drinking, which made people and gods angry. In the end, Cao Cao still couldn't bear it, and he planned to kill Xu You.

"Hmph." Ma Zongheng is neither humble nor arrogant, and there is no respect. When Xu You saw this, he let out a cold snort from his nose, and after making an arch, he immediately threw off his sleeves and sat down. Yuan Shao saw that the atmosphere between the two was a little stiff, so he waved his hand to the right seat and said with a smile: "Haha, Brother Ma sit down first, I will ask someone to take the five hundred taels of gold from yesterday." ”

Yuan Shao said, patted his palms twice, and after a while, the two men carried a huge iron box out of the back hall and came to Ma Zongheng's side to put it down. With a 'bang', it can be seen that the weight of these five hundred taels of gold is not ordinary. Ma Zongheng's face did not change, and he didn't seem to care about the five hundred taels of gold. Xu You's eyes lit up, staring at the iron box for a while, and he couldn't help but feel a resentment in his heart, thinking that he had done a lot of things for him under Yuan Shao over the years, and he had never received such a rich reward.

"Hehe, Brother Ma needs to take an inventory?" Yuan Shao frowned slightly when he saw Ma Zongheng's expression, but soon let go again, and asked with a smile.

"No need. Lord Yuan's personality is trustworthy to Ma. When the two big men heard this, they were about to open the box, but Ma Zongheng waved his hand and replied without thinking.

"Hahaha, it seems that Brother Ma Yuan is quite important. This can teach Yuan to be flattered. I wonder if there will be an opportunity to join hands with Brother Ma to create a great cause in the future? Yuan Shao suddenly laughed, and it was also direct, and the implication was very obvious.

"This Yuan really wanted to take me under his command." Ma Zongheng's eyes lit up, and he said secretly in his heart, and immediately replied: "Ma is not talented, how dare he compare with Lord Yuan." However, Ma is fortunate to be an official in the same court as Lord Yuan, and I only hope that he can serve the court with Lord Yuan in the future, and do his best. ”

As soon as Ma Zongheng's words came out, Yuan Shao and Xu You almost changed color together. Xu You's eyes were cold, and he said in a cold voice: "The eyes of the mouse are bright, and the child is not enough to plan!" ”

Ma Zongheng listened, his face sank, he looked at Xu Yu directly, and asked, "Could it be Ma Mouye, is the gentleman referring to?" ”

"Humph! Lord Yuan is from the Yuan family of the fourth world and the third duke, his identity is unattainable, plus he is young and ambitious, and now he is a lieutenant of the school, and is deeply appreciated by His Majesty and the general, and it can be said that he is the first of today's talents, he intends to conspire with you for a great cause, you don't know how to lift!! Xu You's eyes widened, not afraid of Ma Zongheng's gaze, and shouted coldly.

At this time, Yuan Shao hurriedly stood up, looked angry, and said in a condensed voice: "Hey! Ziyuan should not be angry. Brother Ma, you have just arrived, but you don't know that Luoyang is now in danger. The gelding dog has been in control of the imperial court for a long time, His Majesty is not safe in the dragon's body, the Han Dynasty is in danger, and the world is in turmoil. It's just that people's hearts are unpredictable, gelding minions are all over the world, and there are many ambitious people who are also preparing in secret. If Brother Ma refuses to say something clear, how can I know that you are a fellow believer? ”

Yuan Shao's eyes were impressive, and he looked directly at Ma Zongheng. Ma Zongheng knew that he wanted to use benevolence and righteousness to force himself to join his command, and he would not fall for the scheme, so he also rose up angrily, his voice was like thunder, and he shouted: "Lord Yuan said it well!" Although Ma is young, he also knows what the righteousness of the country is, as long as he supports the Han family and purges the treacherous evil, Ma will never give up!! ”

Ma Zongheng suddenly shouted, the thick and mighty cheer, shocked Yuan Shao and Xu You to change color together, his ears rang, and then he looked at the momentum and was proud and unyielding, both Yuan Shao and Xu You understood that it was difficult to tame Ma Zongheng to the sky.

"You!!" Xu You came back to his senses, suddenly shouted, and was about to scold Ma Zongheng again for not knowing the general situation, arrogant and ignorant. Yuan Shao suddenly laughed: "Hahahahaha~~!!! ”

Yuan Shao's smile extinguished Xu You's anger. Ma Zongheng was also a little surprised, and looked at Yuan Shao silently.

After a while, Yuan Shao's laughter stopped, his face was a little colder, and he said coldly: "Brother Ma is really ambitious, Yuan is considered to have seen it today." It's not too early, I still have important things, so I won't leave you with Brother Ma. ”

As soon as Ma Zongheng heard it, he understood that this was Yuan Shao's eviction order, and he didn't mind, he held up the iron box under the ground with one hand, and replied with his chin: "So Ma will not bother, so he will retreat." ”

Ma Zongheng bowed slightly, and then left without looking back. Yuan Shao saw that Ma Zongheng easily held up the iron box containing five hundred taels of gold, and his face became even colder. At this time, Xu You walked behind him and said in a low voice: "Lord, this person is by no means a thing in the pool, and he is brave and courageous. ”

When Yuan Shao heard this, his eyes suddenly shot out two cold lights, and he said coldly: "Don't worry, this Ma family child has just come to Luoyang, but he has already offended two terrible characters." In the future, he will have his own sufferings. I'll just wait and see what happens, and at the last minute, give him a fatal blow. ”

"The lord is strategic." When Xu You heard this, he had heard about Ma Zongheng's deeds earlier, and when he thought of those two characters, he couldn't help grinning.

It is said that after Ma Zongheng left Yuan Shao's mansion, the sky was already dark, but fortunately Yuan Shao lived in the most prosperous area of Luoyang, surrounded by bright lights, busy traffic, and bustling. Holding the iron box full of gold in one hand, Ma Zongheng swaggered away and hurried straight towards his house.
