020 Well-intentioned

After leaving the head of the Beggars' Gang, Zhao Ji and others found an inn in Luoyang City and stayed there. Liang Shicheng was still angry. According to his idea, since the attitude of the Beggars' Gang was so bad, it would be better to return to Bianliang City. As for the business of the Beggars' Gang in Bianliang City, they would not ask about it anymore. They could last for a few days in Bianliang City where the dragon and tiger were hidden. However, seeing that Zhao Ji's expression was still calm, he couldn't express his thoughts, so as not to upset the prince again.

Zhao Ji was naturally not as calm as he appeared. He came to Luoyang with great enthusiasm, but was blocked by someone to drive out. Such bad treatment was unbearable. Just as Quan Guanqing said, even if he didn't have a beggar's gang or something, even if he was just an ordinary visitor, Ma Dayuan's attitude was very problematic. Zhao Ji naturally did not have the kind of cultivation of spitting on his face. The reason why he felt better and did not leave was because Zhao Ji felt much more comforted when he thought of Ma Dayuan's tragic life, and of course he felt a little unhappy.

Therefore, for people with dark mentality, if they are unhappy, think more about the misery of others. In this way, you can think about it without others comforting you.

But then again, Ma Dayuan's attitude really made Zhao Ji feel a little confused. Could it be that this person is so smart that he can see that he has another intention to help the Beggars' Sect? It shouldn't be that. If Ma Dayuan really had such good eyesight, he wouldn't have cuckolded layers after layer and still didn't know it, and finally died of ignorance. Moreover, he was not afraid to tell Ma Dayuan Ming about this little plot. In the final analysis, he just wanted to win over the Beggars' Sect for his own use, and did not touch on any major issues. Moreover, the Beggars' Sect itself does not reject doing things for the court.

So, what exactly makes Ma Dayuan so hostile to himself?

Thinking of this problem, Zhao Ji was puzzled. It seems that if you want to completely win over the Beggars' Sect, you still need to solve the problem of Ma Dayuan. However, it seems that even if you don't take action, someone will do it soon, but that is not the result Zhao Ji wants. Zhao Ji doesn't know much about Ma Dayuan, but I think it should not be a traitor and evil person. He can even tolerate a villain like Quan Guanqing, and there is no reason to sit back and watch such a not-so-bad person being killed by a conspiracy. Moreover, this person can only be optimistic about his wife while he is alive, which reduces the chances of Qiao Feng's life experience being exposed.

As for this person's inexplicable disgust towards him, just figure out the reason and talk about it slowly. Zhao Ji understood that his identity was not a help but an obstacle. Of course, people like Quan Guanqing were not included.

After these twists and turns, the dusk was getting darker after settled down. After dinner, Zhao Ji took a shower and washed away the dust. He rushed on the road for several days, although he was not very tired, but he was very tired. He was about to rest, but he heard the guards report that a guest was visiting.

After Liang Shicheng went out and returned, his expression was a little strange, and he said to Zhao Ji: "Prince, it was Ma Dayuan who came to visit you. Maybe the more I thought about it, the more I regretted that I shouldn't do this, and came to apologize overnight. Such people are arrogant first and then respectful. Hey, it really makes people look down on me. If you don't want to see him, I will drive the person out immediately."

Zhao Ji was already lying on the bed at this time. After hearing this, he pondered for a moment, and then instructed Liang Shicheng to say, "Let him come a while later."

"Your Majesty, you are a daughter-in-law. Why bother to compromise in front of these rude men? If you make friends with a good man like Mr. Qiao, the young man has nothing to say. But he is as vulgar as Ma Dayuan. When he sees you wronged himself, he feels very unhappy..." Liang Shizheng saw that Zhao Ji got up to dress again and couldn't help but whisper.

When Zhao Ji heard this, he just smiled and said nothing. He was determined to win the Beggars' Sect, and it was also the only force he had hope to control. Everything he did was to prevent himself from going back to the old path and not letting the Song Dynasty go back to the old path. Perhaps it was difficult to reverse the world's trend with these subtle forces in the world alone, but before the great change came, the more power he could master, the better. He did not have the ambition to open peace for all ages, but since he could have a chance to keep the unprecedented prosperity of the Song Dynasty from becoming clouded and destroyed by the iron hoofs of the alien race, what is the small grievance?

Going out is not as casual as being at home. In order to ensure Zhao Ji's safety and tranquility, Liang Shicheng booked the entire inn. So now, only the residents of Zhao Ji and the others in the inn seem a bit quiet and deserted.

Ma Dayuan sat in the hall, gently pursing the tea soup in his hand, his face calm and he looked thoughtful. As for the taste of the tea soup, he really couldn't feel it at all.

There were two strong men outside the main entrance of the hall looking at Ma Dayuan with a bad look, which made him feel more and more irritable. He was more or less regretful about his attitude and actions during the day, but he had to do it. He was really conflicted. During this missed visit, he did not expect to be forgiven by this young noble man in Bianliang City, but he just hoped not to make others think that the Beggars' Sect was a kind-hearted person who repaid his grudges.

When Zhao Ji walked into the hall, Ma Dayuan couldn't help but feel excited. He had already made plans to sit here for a night. After all, no one could accept his attitude.

Before Zhao Ji could speak, Ma Dayuan had already stood up, bowed to the ground, and said to Zhao Ji: "I have offended the Yanei in the day. Ma Dayuan came to apologize and apologize. He dared not ask Yanei for understanding. He only hoped that he would have an opportunity to have an open and honest talk with Yanei."

After hearing this, Zhao Ji became more and more curious. He reached out and helped Ma Dayuan up. After sitting down, he smiled and said, "Mr. Ma is so arrogant. I will come without invitation and cause trouble for the master. It is really inappropriate. If you agree with each other, don't say anything about whether you understand. What do you want to talk to me? I will listen carefully."

Seeing that Zhao Ji was humble and calm, he did not have the arrogant attitude of a noble man, Ma Dayuan felt a little calm. However, he seemed a little difficult to speak out. He opened his mouth for a few minutes and pondered for a long time before saying, "I would like to ask how Yanei got to know our Gang Qiao. If Yanei was convenient to inform him, the more detailed the process, the better."

When Zhao Ji heard Ma Dayuan's question, his mind flashed, and he probably guessed that some thoughts were in Ma Dayuan's mind. After thinking for a while, he explained in detail the process of getting to know Qiao Feng and said, "I just helped you to pick up the leader of the lord from Kaifeng Mansion. It was just a matter of raising hands. Brother Qiao worked hard to use his skills and relieve me and have great favors to prolong my life. Every time I thought about it, I was extremely moved. A good man like Brother Qiao, who is kind, is afraid that no one in the world would be willing to make friends with him."

After listening carefully, Ma Dayuan's serious expression became a little loose. When he heard Zhao Ji's evaluation of Qiao Feng, a smile appeared on his face: "Yes, it is precisely because of the generous and loyalty of the Gangmaster Qiao and the kindness that our late Gangmaster Wang was willing to entrust the Beggars' Sect to him. He also lived up to expectations. In the six or seven years as the Gangmaster Qiao, the Beggars' Sect has become more prosperous and the reputation in the world has become more and more loud."

Zhao Ji also admired Qiao Feng very much when he heard Ma Dayuan's words. It seemed that this old man was not a stubborn and stubborn person. He then said: "I have something unknown, and I hope Deputy Gangma can solve my doubts. The opening of a hall in Bianliang City should be beneficial and harmless, and it has been effective in a short period of time. I know that your Beggars' Sect has a large number of poor disciples who need to help, and they need to turn over their wealth. I am willing to help the Beggars' Sect, but why do you object to Deputy Gangma?"

After hearing this, Ma Dayuan's expression, which had already been a little loose, was subdued again, and his expression was extremely complicated. After a while, he looked at Zhao Ji and said, "Forgive me, you are not an ordinary noble in Bianliang City, right? In the past, our Beggars' Sect also tried to open a hall in Bianliang City, but it was difficult to escape all aspects of the involvement. Even the old husband of the Western Army had tried the ways of maintaining it, but it was still difficult to maintain..."

"And your noble family, if I see it well, it should be one, uh..." After a pause, Ma Dayuancai said again: "Although the leader Qiao and the leader of the rudder did not reveal your identity in Yanei, Ma could probably guess that Yanei, you should be a clan relative, right?"

Zhao Ji was not surprised that Ma Dayuan could guess his identity. After hearing this, he just nodded and said, "It's just a rich and idle person."

After Ma Dayuan sighed, he seemed to make a great decision and bowed to Zhao Ji: "Yanei has helped many kindly with the Beggars' Sect. My Beggars' Sect has a deep sense of repaying the five-way. If there is a chance, it will be repaid. But the Bianliang Hall cannot be maintained anymore. It is difficult for me to explain the reason clearly to Yanei. It just failed Yanei's painstaking efforts. If Yanei was resentful, everything was all about Ma, but he was punished and willing to bear it with all his strength."

Zhao Ji carefully observed Ma Dayuan's expression changes and found that he seemed to have no choice but to have any difficulties. Following this line, his thoughts on Ma Dayuan gradually became clear. This old man should be worried that the Beggars' Sect and his clan relative were too deeply entangled. Once Qiao Feng's life experience was exposed, it might cause a disaster to the Beggars' Sect. In this way, he would rather not have the wealth of Bianliang City than take such risks. Thinking about this, Ma Dayuan opposed opening a hall in Bianliang City, and was wholeheartedly considering the Beggars' Sect, and he could resolutely decide to withdraw when it was already effective. It is no wonder that the leader of Gang Wang gave him the responsibility for taking care of Qiao Feng.

Zhao Ji's guess about Ma Dayuan was actually a little shallow. Ma Dayuan opposed opening a hall in Bianliang, because it was for the safety of the Beggars' Sect. If Qiao Feng's life experience was only spread in the world, it would be just a detrimental reputation of the Beggars' Sect. But if the officials knew that the leader of the Beggars' Sect was actually a Khitan, it would be a disaster for the Beggars' Sect to be defeated.

As for this second, it was for Zhao Ji. Although Qiao Feng has been doing his best since he became the leader of the gang, there have always been rumors among the people that the Khitans are as tigers and wolves. No one can guarantee whether he will suddenly become crazy. Therefore, Ma Dayuan never dared to relax his scrutiny of Qiao Feng. If this clan relative had frequent contacts with Qiao Feng, he would not have been killed.

Third, Ma Dayuan himself couldn't tell whether it was right or wrong. He could say that he was watching Qiao Feng grow up. Even though he knew that the other party was a Khitan who was a Han vengeance, he always had some affection in his heart. Even if one day Qiao Feng's life experience was difficult to hide, he hoped that Qiao Feng could leave the Song Dynasty and continue to live. But if a clan nobleman knew Qiao Feng's identity and if he insisted on pursuing it, this matter could no longer be stopped in the world, and Qiao Feng's future would undoubtedly add a lot of danger.
