Seeing this, Pang Tong's expression froze, and he continued: "Although General Ma Chao is the heir of the general's own designation. But General Ma Chao's ability, merits, and prestige are inferior to General Zhengbei in all aspects, and everyone expects General Zhengbei to take over the throne. Even if the general of Zhengbei refuses repeatedly, I am afraid that everyone will not give up, this is endless, not to mention General Ma Chao, if you change the general of Zhengbei, you will inevitably have resentment in your heart, and even eventually go astray. Therefore, if the general wants to return to Yongzhou, he will only be killed and not profitable! If there is any case, I am afraid that the general of Zhengbei is likely to have his life! ”

"Enough!! Pang Shiyuan, shut up for me!! When Pang Tong said the last sentence, Ma Zongheng suddenly changed color, and before he finished speaking, he scolded angrily. Pang Tongyi listened, slightly stunned, in fact, he had another thing in his heart that he wanted to advise, but after his temptation, he knew that it was absolutely impossible.

It turned out that although Pang Tong spoke like this, in fact, he would like anyone to go back to Yongzhou, stabilize the situation, stabilize people's hearts, and get the land of Yongzhou and Liang in one fell swoop. But after the investigation of the right talents, Ma Zongheng's attitude is very obvious and firm. Of course, Pang Tong's idea is good, but Ma Chao is by no means an ordinary person, and Pang Tong even came up with a cruel strategy. However, Pang Tong quickly abandoned these strategies, because he knew that if he was a heroic figure like Cao Cao, he might still be able to agree, but Ma Zongheng would never be able to do such a thing.

Therefore, he can only retreat, hoping to save the current situation first. In the future, we will draw again.

"Huh... The sea is immeasurable, people's hearts are unpredictable, even between brothers... It is possible to doubt each other and prepare for each other because of fame and fortune, and it is even likely that they will face each other with blades..."Ma Zongheng said, and suddenly remembered that Ma Chao was young, that serious, but his eyes were full of worship, and he shouted to him about his brother.

Suddenly, Ma Zongheng only had a strong desire to protect in his heart, and he was suddenly shocked, and shouted: "Quickly pass it to the left and right to get the pen and ink, I want to repair a book and pass it to my second brother!" ”

Ma Zongheng suddenly shouted, Pang Tong couldn't help but be slightly stunned, but quickly reacted, showed a smile, and gave up. Although Ma Zongheng lacks the ruthlessness of the hero who dares to make trade-offs in order to win greater interests, it does not mean that Ma Zongheng is decisive.

When he was young, he quickly took pen and ink left and right, and Ma Zongheng wrote a letter with a pen. After a while, Ma Zongheng wrote, let out a long sigh, and said, "Is this the price I paid for leaving the Fufeng Ma family back then?" Otherwise, if I stay in Fufu and fight side by side with my brothers to build a foundation, or if I am facing a difficult situation right now, my brothers and I can work together to face it together. On the contrary, you don't have to be as careful as you are now, lest your brothers turn their faces and even kill each other~! ”

"Hehe, General Zhengbei's words are wrong. The time when you went to Luoyang at the beginning can be said to be the most suitable time, otherwise even if the Ma family has a general in the north to take charge, I am afraid that at this time, at most it will be a separatist party. The general trend of the world is still in this Central Plains! Pang Tong said in a condensed voice, looking at Ma Zongheng's gaze couldn't help but be a little more curious. It is said that he has always studied Ma Zongheng, and he has always felt very strange, Ma Zongheng has always grasped the timing very accurately during the years of entrepreneurship, like an unexpected prophet.

At this moment, a letter suddenly came, and Ma Zongheng couldn't help but be shocked, so he was summoned. Soon a soldier came to hand it over, Pang Tong took it, and handed it over to Ma Zongheng. Ma Zongheng opened it and saw that it was a letter from Cheng Gongying. After seeing it, Ma Zongheng sighed lightly and said, "It seems that you and Cheng Gongying are heroes. He also sent a letter to persuade me not to rush to Yongzhou at this time, and also told me that my father is out of danger now, but he is still unconscious. However, what makes people most angry is that the person my father saved at the cost of life and death turned out to be a fake emperor!! ”

As soon as Ma Zongheng's words came out, Pang Tong didn't have much horror, and sighed: "If Tong's prediction is correct, that person is likely to be the deposed young emperor Liu Wei is also!" ”

Ma Zongheng was obedient, slightly stunned, and then said: "That's right!" My father had seen His Majesty back then, and if other people were afraid they wouldn't be able to deceive my father. Therefore, in order to deceive my father, Cao Thief even used this Liu Bian. ”

When Pang Tong heard this, his expression suddenly became calm, and he seemed to be thoughtful. Seeing this, Ma Zongheng couldn't help frowning slightly, and asked, "Shiyuan seems to be worried?" ”

Pang Tong was obedient, suddenly came back to his senses, and soon showed a smile, and arched his hand: "Hehe, Tong Shi is a little distracted, and please don't blame General Zhengbei." ”

"I can't go to Yongzhou right now, so what should I do, should I continue to attack the remaining cities and counties in Hedong, or..." Pang Tong's expression suddenly froze, and he said, "If my guess is correct, then Xiahoudun should withdraw his troops soon." After all, according to Fei Yu's detailed report, Huainan and Nanyang are currently being watched by Liu Biao and Lu Bu. Cao Thief is afraid and can't afford to entangle with us anymore. However, in order to prevent any movement of the state army, we still tried our best to take Hedong. On the other hand, the general of Zhengbei has been fighting abroad for a long time, and if he does not return to Yanzhou to sit in the town and stabilize the hearts of the people, he is afraid that he will be regarded as a poor soldier and lose the hearts of the people. Please also ask the general to prepare quickly, and it is best to lead the generals back to Yanzhou within the next few days. ”

As soon as Pang Tong said this, Ma Zongheng's face tightened slightly, and said: "According to what you mean, after taking Hedong, our army will start to recuperate, sit and wait for the situation to change, and then make pictures?" ”

"Yes, too! In the past two years, there have been many wars in various parts of the world, and the people have suffered greatly from the wars. Pang Tong's expression was solemn, and he said with emotion. Ma Zongheng listened, his heart pinched, speaking of which he also misses his relatives at home these days, and he doesn't know what the situation at home is. ”

"In the foolish opinion of the unification, it is necessary for Uncle Chen. This person is both wise and brave, and good at governance, and has been in Hedong for several years, and is also familiar with Hedong. Of course, when it comes to government affairs, General Zhengbei can hire Nawei Zhongdao, who is deeply harmonious and well-known in Hedong, and the Hedong family is obedient to him. With him and Uncle Chen in charge of government affairs and military affairs, Hedong will be foolproof!! As soon as Pang Tong's words came out, Ma Zongheng also agreed very much, so he made allocations according to Pang Tong's instructions. After the two dispersed, Ma Zongheng rushed to Wei's house to see Wei Zhongdao.

In other words, Anyi City was calm again, and these days Wei Zhongdao was concentrating on studying at home, and suddenly heard that Ma Zongheng came to see him in person. Wei Zhongdao couldn't help but be surprised, so he rushed to meet him.

When he was young, Wei Zhongdao came to the hall of his home, and when he saw Ma Zongheng's burly and majestic figure, he was shocked and bowed his hand to him: "How can the eldest brother come to see him in person, what is the important matter, although he teaches people to pass it on, the younger brother will see him from the past." ”

"Hehe, brother doesn't have to be polite, I'm here to be a characteristic brother." Ma Zongheng waved his hand and said with laughter. When Wei Zhongdao heard this, he couldn't help frowning slightly, and replied: "Please also ask the eldest brother to forgive the sins, presumably the eldest brother also knows that the younger brother is really not interested in government affairs, and only wants to study!" ”

Before Wei Zhongdao finished speaking, Ma Zongheng suddenly grabbed Wei Zhongdao's arm, his eyes were impressive, and said, "Don't hide it, I'm going to go back to Puyang." As for Hedong, I plan to hand it over to Uncle Chen to guard. However, Uncle Chen is still young, and he doesn't know anything about government affairs, so please ask your brother to be there to help, otherwise I am afraid that there will be chaos in Hedong and then fall into the hands of thieves! ”

Ma Zongheng said that, and stretched out his hand back. When Wei Zhongdao heard this, he sank first, paced up, and said: "Uncle Chen has been prosperous so far and has made a lot of achievements. Hedong has him in charge, but he is not afraid of strong enemies. It's a matter of government..."

Wei Zhongdao thought for a while, suddenly turned around, suddenly bowed to the horse, and said: "The lord looks up to Wei so much, Wei is willing to serve the work of dogs and horses, and will never live up to the high expectations of the lord!" ”

When Ma Zongheng heard this, his expression couldn't help but change, and he hurriedly said: "Brother doesn't have to stick to red tape, you can call me eldest brother as before." ”

"Hehe, there is a difference between the top and the bottom, this is an ancient ceremony, how can it be abolished?" Wei Zhongdao smiled brightly. Ma Zongheng knew that Wei Zhongdao had never had the heart to enter the ranks, and only wanted to study his room full of oracle bones. said that he wanted Wei Zhongdao to enter the office back then, and also threatened Wei Zhongdao to burn his room of oracle bones if he didn't come out, but Wei Zhongdao still refused. I didn't expect Wei Zhongdao to be so light at the moment, so he agreed.

Thinking of this, Ma Zongheng's eyes couldn't help flashing a little doubt, Wei Zhongdao saw it, and said with a faint smile: "The lord doesn't have to think nonsense, Wei Mou refused to go out back then, because he felt that he didn't have this ability, and he was afraid that he would touch the dark on his ancestors, but after all these years of study, Wei Mou now has a little confidence and is willing to give it a try." ”

"Haha, you're not necessarily too cautious! But right now, I'm fortunate to have my brother's help, which can be regarded as a fortunate thing, and I should not get drunk tonight!! Ma Zongheng laughed heartily. Wei Zhongdao listened, and also became interested, and said: "It's rare that the lord is so interested, then Wei Mou has the right to go back to the host's house, and invite the lord to stay for a banquet tonight, I still have a few jars of daughter red, and I have been reluctant to drink it." ”

As soon as Wei Zhongdao said this, Ma Zongheng's eyes couldn't help but shine, and he laughed. But said that that night, Ma Zongheng seemed to be in a good mood, and even drank not only the several jars of good wine of Wei Zhongdao, but also drank two jars of good liquor. Wei Zhongdao was too drunk to drink, and he had already drunk. Although the old housekeeper of the Wei family asked his subordinates to send him off and prepared a carriage, Ma Zongheng politely refused, and after leaving the Wei Mansion alone, he strolled alone on the street. At this time, it was late at night, and there were only a few people on the street, and they did not recognize the identity of this extremely outstanding and majestic man.

Suddenly, Ma Zongheng sighed lightly, shook his head bitterly and smiled: "I didn't expect that it would be so difficult for me to even meet that old barbarian now, I knew that this was the case, I shouldn't have been angry with him in the first place." Even if it's a false promise, I can agree for the time being in order to please the old barbarian. In this way, won't the old barbarian be angry and even cut off relations with me?

And super brother, super brother! If I don't listen to Pang Shiyuan's nonsense, and rush back to Yongzhou, will you really be as he said, afraid of my eldest brother like a tiger, and unhappy in your heart? ”
