Chapter 346 Disaster

"I am Shi Guang." The general of Yanzhou bowed, "General Dianzhang said someone wants to kill us. Why do you say that?"

"After you left, Ma Jin sent people to the military camp to mobilize troops to hunt you down, but he didn't expect that after the news of the young master's survival was passed back to Qinzhou, people's minds had already changed."

Then Dianzhang sneered, "This soldier went to the military camp but didn't go to Ma Chang first, but told me the news first. I asked him to wait a quarter of an hour before telling Ma Chang."

"So that's it." Shi Guang suddenly realized, "It seems that they don't want your young master to come back."

Dianzhang nodded seriously, "You'd better leave quickly, otherwise you won't be able to leave."

Hearing this, Shi Guang clasped his fists to Dianzhang and said, "Thank you very much, see you again if we are lucky."

"See you again if we are lucky."

After that, Dianzhang reined in his horse and left.

But he didn't return to Xiancheng, but went straight to a country villa east of Xiancheng.

"Sir, the King of Yan's people are here." After entering the yard, Dianzhang said to the middle-aged scholar sitting in the pavilion reading a book.

"Oh?" The middle-aged scholar asked without moving his eyes away from the book, "What did they say to Ma Jin?"

So he told the middle-aged scholar about Shi Guang's experience.

"Ma Jin has completely broken with the King of Yan. That's good. If the King of Yan wants to intervene in this matter, he will definitely borrow troops from Ma Han, so it will be easier to take back the position of the head of the family." The middle-aged scholar put down the book and walked to Dianzhang.

He frowned, "And the King of Yan sent people to Qinzhou this time to let us elders weigh the pros and cons. In the end, he still considered Ma Han, there is no doubt about that."

"The young master should have inherited the position of the head of the family." Dianzhang looked firm.

The middle-aged scholar nodded, "Ma Chong and Ma Han have been tossing around for so long, the Ma family should welcome back the real head of the family."

As he was speaking, a servant suddenly came in from outside and said, "Sir, the head of the family just sent someone to deliver a message, asking you to go to the mansion tonight to discuss welcoming back the young master."

The middle-aged scholar raised his eyebrows and smiled, "I didn't expect that when the King of Yan's people came, Ma Chong and Ma Jin couldn't sit still. It seems that they must also know that they can't sit still. It's better to give up this position as soon as possible to avoid embarrassment at that time."

"Sir, this is not right." Dianzhang frowned, "Just now Ma Jin ordered the cavalry who delivered the message to the King of Yan to chase and kill, how could he suddenly change his mind."

The middle-aged scholar's eyes kept wandering, and he fell into deep thought.

"Sir, in my opinion, you'd better leave for Sizhou now to prevent unexpected changes." Dianzhang looked serious.

This middle-aged scholar is the governor of Sizhou, Ma Yue, who is Ma Xuan's cousin like Ma Jin.

The Ma family has three governors.

Ma Xuan is the governor of Qinzhou, Ma Jin is the governor of Yongzhou, and Ma Yue is the governor of Sizhou.

The three are the most powerful in the Ma family, among which Ma Jin is also the general of the Ma family, and his power is only second to Ma Xuan.

After Ma Chong returned to the Ma family, Ma Jin tried to move him, a close confidant of Ma Xuan in the army, several times.

But because of Ma Yue's strong protection, he failed.

Although he knew that Ma Yue also wanted to use him to compete with Ma Jin in the army.

But he was still grateful to Ma Yue.

Usually Ma Yue stayed in Sizhou, but after the news that Ma Han was alive came back.

He came to Xiancheng to discuss with other elders about welcoming back Ma Han.

"Hahaha, do you mean that Ma Jin wants to harm us elders?" Ma Yue suddenly laughed.

It's different from what Dianzhang thought.

Ma Yue just thought that Ma Jin didn't like King Yan to interfere in this matter.

He also didn't like the Prince of Yan interfering in the affairs of the Ma family.

However, because he supported Ma Han and shared the same interests with the Prince of Yan, he didn't hate him as much as Ma Jin.

After all, Ma Han was not good for him, Ma Jin.

As for what Dian Zhang thought, he thought it was impossible.

He thought Dian Zhang only speculated like this out of his disgust for Ma Jin.

After all, murdering the elders of the clan was equivalent to treason.

"It's not impossible for me to speak frankly." Dian Zhang said.

He even suspected that Ma Jin was responsible for Ma Xuan's death.

As Ma Xuan's most trusted general, he knew clearly the conflict between Ma Xuan and Ma Jin.

"Okay, no need to say more." Ma Yue waved his hand, "You think too much. Back then, I, Ma Xuan and Ma Jin all swore in the ancestral hall that we would never do anything to harm the Ma family, otherwise we would die without a burial place. Ma Jin covets the power of the Ma family, but he will not be so crazy. It is better to welcome Ma Han back now. Let's see what he says tonight."

"This..." Dian Zhang wanted to say more, but seeing Ma Yue's serious expression, he swallowed his words.

Then he took his leave and turned away.

Dian Zhang's figure disappeared, and Ma Yue suddenly clapped his hands.

At this time, a general walked in, "Lord Governor."

"Tonight, you take some good hands with me to the Ma family mansion." Ma Yue said.

Although he didn't believe that Ma Jin would do this, Dian Zhang pointed out that he was a little nervous.

But he still didn't want to believe it.

After all, if this happened, the Ma family would fall into civil war, and the strength of the Ma family would be weakened.

That night.

The Ma family mansion was brightly lit, and twelve Ma family elders and dozens of family members gathered in the Ma family mansion.

Ma Chong had already ordered his subordinates to set up a play.

The singing and dancing, the music, and the Ma family mansion suddenly became noisy.

At this time, Ma Chong sat in the main seat, and Ma Jin sat just behind Ma Chong.

After toasting, an elder said: "The head of the family summoned us here today, saying that he wanted to discuss the matter of welcoming back Ma Han. I wonder what arrangements the head of the family has?"

Ma Chong and Ma Han looked at each other, and all the elders who were supposed to come had arrived.

Now, the soldiers have been ambushed in the rooms around the courtyard. With just one order, they can rush out and chop these elders into pieces.

However, this is the last killing move, and it is best to make these elders give up Ma Han at this moment.
