Summary of the previous chapter: Ma Xiaoquan participated in Lu Zhan's original performance, and Lu Zhan was imprisoned by Emperor Tianqi. Officials who were close to Lu Zhan immediately wrote a letter to jointly protect him. Not to be outdone, Ma Xiaoquan also bribed a group of officials...
After arriving at the door of Jinyiwei Prison, Ma Xiaoquan did not go in immediately, but asked who was in the prison today.
One of his subordinates replied in a low voice: "To tell you what to say, the commanding officer also arrested a few people today and sent them in."
"Oh?" Ma Xiaoquan knew as soon as he heard this that Tian Ergeng wanted to cause trouble again, "What are the backgrounds of those people?"
"I heard that those people were causing trouble outside. But just now, those people were taken away by the commanding officer, and they were said to be brought back at night to be locked up..."
"Isn't it a bit ridiculous to send the troublemaker to the Jinyi Guard Prison?" Ma Xiaoquan was a little surprised. This Tian Ergeng was unwilling to join in the trouble.
"Okay, I understand, you guys are watching from the door."
"yes"
Ma Xiaoquan nodded and quietly walked into the prison. Just as he was about to reach the depths, he suddenly heard a high-pitched female voice.
"Brother, this bastard Ma Xiaoquan made us stay here for so long. Why don't you think dad will rescue us?"
"Jingjing, don't worry. We have food and drink in this prison now. Apart from not being able to take a bath, there is no difference. Just wait patiently."
"Brother, what we did that day..."
"Hey, Jingjing, don't blame me. I was fed so much aphrodisiac by that bastard Ma Xiaoquan that I couldn't do anything about it. Plus you were the only woman on the field at the time..."
"It's okay, brother. That was also of my own free will. I can't watch you feel uncomfortable... By the way, brother, dad's arrangements in the court seem to have made progress."
"How do you know?"
"Well, I overheard it before Dad went to Shanxi. I originally wanted to tell you about it, but this happened, so I was delayed."
"Come on, there's no one around right now."
"Well, it's like this. My father's trip to Shanxi is actually to contact Shanxi. As soon as the Jurchen Ministry reaches Beijing, he will immediately communicate with the governor of Shanxi and join the Jurchens. Then he can become a high-ranking official.
.”
"Eh? That's not right, Jingjing, didn't dad say he wanted to be the emperor?"
"Brother, I haven't finished speaking yet. Listen to me. My father's meaning is very clear. Our family is not short of money now, but it is short of people. When we accumulate power and become a king on our own, brother
You are the crown prince, and I am the eldest princess. Humph, Ma Xiaoquan belongs to the Ma family, but he still doesn’t exist like a little ant?"
...
Ma Xiaoquan's eyes widened and he hid in the shadows. He could clearly hear the conversation between Zhang Yi and Zhang Jing.
After a while, the Zhang brothers and sisters stopped communicating, and Ma Xiaoquan did not show up. After listening to the conversation between the Zhang brothers and sisters, he turned back and left the prison.
"There are two people sleeping inside. Forget it, I don't have the intention to torment them anymore. Just keep watching," Ma Xiaoquan ordered.
"Yes, sir."
...
Back at Ma's house, Ma Xiaoquan immediately called Li Qinghan.
"What's wrong?" Li Qinghan asked, seeing the solemn look on Ma Xiaoquan's face.
"The Zhang family... is not simple..." Ma Xiaoquan shook his head.
"What happened?"
Ma Xiaoquan looked around to make sure he was not disturbed, then whispered a few words into Li Qinghan's ear.
"What? The Zhang family actually..."
Ma Xiaoquan shook his head: "I never thought that the reclusive wealthy family in the past would have such thoughts today. Well, Qinghan, you know more about the reclusive wealthy family than I do. Based on your understanding of the Zhang family, they are
What kind of hidden wealthy family?"
Li Qinghan said: "Actually, the Zhang family is not a completely reclusive wealthy family, because their family has been in business for generations. To put it simply, they are very philistine."
"No wonder Zhang Tianhao has such an idea. Well, it's just right. I can take advantage of it. Okay, I have to go back to the restaurant. Those corrupt officials are still waiting for me. Qinghan, if you have nothing to do today, you can go to bed early."
"good"
...
The next day, the officials who rescued Lu Zhan wrote to Emperor Tianqi again. This time, they invited the stars of the Donglin Party.
But what's interesting is that Xing didn't say much. He just handed over his hand, and it was unclear what his intentions were.
It turned out that Xing had already been persuaded by Wang Wenyan, but in view of Lu Zhan's promotion, he could only accept it to save face.
Lu Zhan's comrades also saw that Xing was not doing his best, and although they held grudges in their hearts, they were helpless.
In the second round, Ma Xiaoquan won again.
After retreating from the court, Ma Xiaoquan was about to leave when Wang Wenyan suddenly grabbed Ma Xiaoquan and signaled.
Ma Xiaoquan thought Wang Wenyan still wanted money, and couldn't help but feel a little angry.
Wang Wenyan chuckled, seeing no one around, and said, "Master Deacon, are you thinking that someone like me, Wang, wants to ask you for the baby?"
Ma Xiaoquan's thoughts were revealed, he chuckled sheepishly and lied: "No, no, if Mr. Wang still wants it, of course I, Ma Xiaoquan, will give it to me."
"No, no, no, once is enough. Besides, Mr. Butler, the luminous pearl I took should be the most precious treasure in your three big boxes, right?"
Ma Xiaoquan cursed secretly in his heart, but on the surface he smiled and said: "Yes, Mr. Wang has really good eyesight, I can't help but accept it."
Wang Wenyan chuckled and whispered: "Deacon, those people came to plead with Lu Zhan today but failed. I'm afraid they won't give up yet."
"Oh? Why did Mr. Wang say this?"
Wang Wenyan smiled and said: "I have a close friendship with Mr. Deacon, so I, Mr. Wang, don't show off. Let's put it this way, today they invited Xing, but Xing did not work hard, so...
Next, they should adopt a supernumerary policy."
"Non-staff policy?" Ma Xiaoquan said that he was cunning and cunning, but he had to say that this old guy had a very clear mind. Whatever he could see and think of, there must be something wrong.
Ma Xiaoquan raised his hand and said politely: "I hope Mr. Wang can give me some advice."
"Well." Wang Wenyan seemed to be very satisfied with Ma Xiaoquan's courtesy and said with a smile, "The so-called non-staff policy, we must first pay attention to a few important people around the emperor. Well, the deacon counts as one, and we in the cabinet count.
, there are still two people, the deacon needs to be careful."
"who?"
Wang Wenyan raised his lips slightly: "Wei Zhongxian, guest Yinyue."
Ma Xiaoquan was stunned, then came to his senses and handed over to Wang Wenyan again: "Thank you Mr. Wang for reminding me, but Mr. Wang, it's better to say that Ke Yinyue is a woman. Wei Zhongxian, I really don't know what to do."
Ma Xiaoquan originally wanted to say that Wei Zhongxian would be the culprit who killed you and Wang Wenyan in the future, but he swallowed his words again. After all, he couldn't do anything to destroy history.
"No, although Ke Yinyue is a woman, her current energy is much greater than that of Wei Zhongxian. She is the emperor's nanny, and now she is the saint's wife, and she also has sex with Wei Zhongxian, so in the end
, Wei Zhongxian might use Ke Yinyue’s words to ask the emperor to forgive Lu Zhan. Of course, the guys who have a good relationship with Lu Zhan should also think of Wei Zhongxian..."
