At the back house of Lulong's office, the prefect Ma Kuo sat in the study room in a daze, looking at the letter on the desk without blinking, and he was about to get into his bones.

He went down the mountain from Wuma Mountain Village and received a high courtesy from the King of Yan.

If you want the Ma family where Ma Zhi is located is looked at by the King of Yan, you will know that this master will not blame the Jin people for going south on Ma Zhi and Ma Kuo and these maritime alliances handle the people themselves.

Ma Kuo was even appointed as the prefect of Lu Long because of his dealings with the Jurchens.

This Lulong Prefecture was Pingzhou when the Liao people were in the Liao Dynasty, and its subordinate Yingzhou, Luanzhou and other places were roughly located south of Shanhaiguan, west of Tangshan, and bordering the northeast.

Ma Kuo also cheered up and worked hard to do his official position, fulfill his duties and responsibilities, and live up to the high expectations of the King of Yan.

But who would have thought that a letter from the south would push him into a dilemma.

Following the rebellion of the Yan King in the south, Ma Chao could not do anything. But he was not willing to report Zhao Gongchang.

Zhao Gongchang was a native of Yan, a great family of Liao. During the reign of Emperor Tianzuo, he recognized the governor of Jingzhou. After the fall of Liao, he stayed at home. When the Yan King's army attacked Yanyun in the north, he took the opportunity to raise the matter. Later, he was named the general manager of Lu Long's army and horses by Zhao Gou.

Now Zhao Gongchang actually contacted the Zhao Guanjia in the south, and wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to attack while Zhao Gou was in the Central Plains. This was called Ma Kuo very puzzled.

First, he couldn't figure out why Zhao Gongchang had a hookup with the south side, and second, he couldn't figure out how he dared to rebel against the King of Yan.

So what if the land of Yanyun is lost? The army under the King of Yan is still there, and the foundation is still there. If the land of Yan is lost, is it difficult for someone to turn back and fight again?

However, Ma Kuo was determined to do it.

He did not make the rebellion of King Yan, nor did he report Zhao Gongchang, and he silently acted as a turtle in his head.

In the General Administration of Military Affairs, Zhao Gongchang's face was gloomy and the hall was covered with clouds. Ma Kuo rejected their proposal and immediately forced them to the edge of the cliff.

Who can guarantee that Ma Kuo, who does not intend to cooperate with them, can really keep secrets strictly without reporting to the superiors?

This is a head loss thing.

"Father, we should continue to suffer from chaos. In the eyes of children, we should take the initiative and take down the prefect's office!"

Zhao Gongchang's son said firmly.

Zhao Gongchang looked at a eunuch sitting on his left hand. This was an envoy of the Imperial City Division and rushed to Lu Long in person. It can be seen that the Imperial City Division has invested a lot of money this time.

"Ma Ziyan is stubborn and unresolved. We must not entrust our plans to this son. We should act first according to the words of the young general. The family then asked people to inform people outside the pass that the great Jin soldiers and horses had already been ready to go to Yu Pass. After receiving the greeting, they would arrive at Yu Pass soon."

This entire plan is not only Zhao Gongchang's. The Imperial City Department also hooked up with the Jin people, thanked Zhao Gongchang as Duke of Yan, and Yongzhen Yan land. This is why he is regarded as a vassal state. Such temptation cannot help but Zhao Gongchang, let alone Zhao Gou went south for many days, but has not yet taken over Bianliang City. This is also a fact.

Zhao Gongchang didn't think Zhao Gou was fishing, and he didn't believe the news or rumors coming from the south. Instead, he trusted the nonsense in the imperial city.

Or he knew that Yan land was empty, and as long as he could open Yu Pass and let the Jin people come in, it would be difficult to capture many prefecture cities for a while, but it could also make the Jin people's iron cavalry gallop across the board.

This is how the King of Yan is able to get better if he is connected with Chen Gou's tribe in Zhongshan Prefecture and other benevolent and ambitious people inspired by the "Great Righteousness"?

And this is Zhao Huan’s overall plan!

All aspects involved are far from being alone Zhao Gongchang.

After making a decision, Zhao Gongchang joined his son back to the study. He was over 40 years old, but he was just one son.

The Zhao family and his son, whose face was still gloomy in the hall, were filled with irresistible joy when they arrived at the study.

"That guy Ma Kuo is really a lucky star of my Zhao family. He actually refused such a good thing that came to the door..." Zhao Shunquan didn't know how to evaluate Ma Kuo.

"It's just that I was shocked by Zhao Jiu's voice." Zhao Gongchang was really happy to see Ma Kuo's choice, so that he could become the only one in Yandi. "My father and son have to prepare quickly, and Ma Kuo came back to his senses. He is from the south, and the Zhao official family will definitely trust him even more."

Zhao Shunquan nodded repeatedly, that's the reason. If Ma Kuo hadn't refused twice, would the Imperial City Si Yan give them such conditions?

When Lulong Mansion was covered with clouds, a man over fifty years old was steadily heading towards the mountains in Qingyuan Mansion hundreds of miles away.

With the battle to suppress bandits in Hedong, Hebei, nine out of ten bandits and bandits in various prefectures, but it is impossible for you to completely eradicate the bandits.

Qingyuan Prefecture, where Wang Yuan and Han Shizhong were stationed earlier, leaning against Taihang in the west, with high mountains and dense forests. There have been no bandits since ancient times.

Now there are thieves and bandits.

Although they have hid in the deep mountains and dared not go down the mountain to rob, there are always some people who can easily contact them.

Now this old man named Li is one of them.

Li Kuang's ancestors were all from Qingyuan Prefecture, and they were farmed for generations and their families were well-off.

At this time, his ancestral tomb was filled with smoke, and it turned out to be a seed of study. Chongning (from 1102 to 1106) passed the imperial examination in Tokyo, and then he spent more than 20 years in the officialdom. After Zhao Huan ascended the throne, he went back to work and returned home. Now he is fifty-eight.

If Li Kuang is also a person who has seen the world, being able to pass the imperial examination in high school means that he is not stupid, but he just can't see it.

As the Li family's land was confiscated by the government and large sums of money and grain were also confiscated, Li Kuang felt endless hatred for Zhao Gou.

Perhaps the biggest reason for him to come to this day is that Zhao Gou didn't serve as an official.

Why was this man resigned from his post? That was because the bird man abandoned the city and left when the Jin people went south. After the incident, he was naturally dismissed from his official position.

But Li Kuang doesn't think so.

He only saw a few officials who returned home like him were invited to become officials again. However, he himself did not have such a blessing. He was less than 60 years old and could work for the Song Dynasty for another twenty years. Then he would have no favoritism for Zhao Gou. But he didn't believe that the people he saw were all dismissed for because of what!

If I was encouraged by the Imperial City Department, wouldn’t I take positive action?

First, he connected several people with his destiny and pity, and then he hooked up with Liang Pin from Dun and Shanli.

The latter is said to be from Daming Mansion. He used to be a guardian teacher for wealthy families, but because he covets the beauty of his master's wife, he has an undeserved thought. He has done evil things and has nowhere to tolerate them and can only become a bandit.

During the Xuanhe riot, he was also involved. After the failure, he led the remaining troops to flee into Dun and the mountains, recovered the left and right small villages, occupied the mountains as king, and occupied the territory of Qingyuan Prefecture for more than a year or two.

Wang Yuan had the intention to wipe out him, but this guy hid in the mountains, and the Song army had no choice but to raise a group of big and small men in the mountains, and robbed the merchants when they had nothing to do. If they had something to do, they would hide in the mountains. Not to mention that the Song army could not do anything, even if Zhao Gou ordered the suppression of bandits in various places before, Liang Pin was not severely injured. It was said that he was at ease in hiding in the mountains.

In the prefectures and counties, everyone knows that there is a powerful thief under Liang Pin who dares to kill people. Li Kuang wants to "remedy the trouble", but wouldn't he just take a look at this group of people?

The two have been secretly engaged in each other twice. Now that the dagger is seen, it is time to see blood. Li Kuang came to the mountain village in person for a walk.

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