Summary of the previous chapter: Li Qinghan and Hua Yue expressed their views on Wei Zhongxian's embezzlement of Zhang Tianhao's family property, and expressed some hidden concerns...
Li Qinghan and Hua Yue looked at each other, and the two women nodded. The latter said: "So, you think Wei Zhongxian only takes money. As for Zhang Tianhao's big business, Wei Zhongxian is definitely not interested, or even if he is, he is not interested."
He will leave it to his men, right?"
Ma Xiaoquan praised: "You two are really smart. Yes, if Wei Zhongxian wants cash, that's good. If he is interested in Zhang Tianhao's business, huh, with his little ability, it's okay to make money by causing trouble, and make money.
What can a guy who can't read Chinese characters do?"
"What if Wei Zhongxian finds the right person to run it?"
Ma Xiaoquan's eyes turned cold and he said: "If such a thing really happens, then don't blame me, Ma Xiaoquan, for being rude."
Although Li Qinghan and Hua Yue don't like killing, they are both members of the Ma family now, and both are Ma Xiaoquan's women. Their husbands have this idea. As women, even if it is wrong, they can't say anything.
Of course, Ma Xiaoquan is not the kind of person who likes killing. There are 10,000 ways to solve any situation, and killing is only the last resort.
...
Two days later, a servant came to report that Wei Zhongxian had begun to embezzle the Zhang Tianhao family's business.
Ma Xiaoquan originally thought that Wei Zhongxian would take action after the New Year, but he didn't expect that the old eunuch would be so anxious. It was almost the New Year, and Wei Zhongxian was making such a fuss, either because he was absolutely sure that he could bring Zhang Tianhao down, or he was just blind with no purpose.
Nonsense.
Sure enough, that afternoon, officials in the imperial court who had good relations with the Zhang family began to write letters to report Wei Zhongxian and impeach Wei Zhongxian.
Zhu Youxiao will naturally not come out, because he arranged this matter, so the adults in the cabinet once again became the target of criticism and criticism by the officials.
As an "insider", Ma Xiaoquan had no news except for a few words of advice. However, because he was a royal guard and someone close to the emperor, some officials also approached him and asked him to
Pass the news to the emperor.
Ma Xiaoquan promised, but in fact he would not do it at all.
In the evening, Ma Xiaoquan was having dinner at home when Zhang Tianhao suddenly came to ask for an audience. He looked very anxious.
Ma Xiaoquan did not go to see him immediately, but left him to sit in the main hall.
Li Qinghan and Hua Yue couldn't sit still anymore, and put down their jobs and urged in unison: "Ma Xiaoquan, just go and have a look. Fortunately, Zhang Tianhao is the head of the Zhang family, and he doesn't have any deep grudge against us. You're ignoring me like this.
Isn’t it a bit too much?”
Mrs. Ma, who had always been reclusive and rarely spoke out, also nodded and advised: "Quan'er, Qinghan and Yue'er are both right. You are just too stubborn. Tianhao has always had problems with our family no matter what he does.
We have some friendship, so don’t be awkward.”
Ma Xiaoquan put down his job and chuckled: "Grandma, Qinghan, Yue'er, I know you are all right, but do you know why Zhang Tianhao came to me in such a panic? It's not all what Wei Zhongxian did today.
Why... But if I come forward, this matter will be very complicated. I am the deacon of Jinyiwei. I can take care of the affairs of court officials, but for matters outside the court, unless the emperor speaks, I will
I won’t interfere.”
Feng'er in Li Qinghan's arms blinked, jumped out of her arms, ran to Ma Xiaoquan, pulled the corner of his clothes, and said in a sweet voice: "Daddy, go, daddy go."
Ma Xiaoquan was stunned for a moment, hugged Feng'er happily, and said with a smile: "Hey? Why did the little guy suddenly call me daddy today? Qinghan, you secretly settled it, right?"
Li Qinghan smiled slightly: "Look, your son has spoken, do you think you are going or not?"
Ma Xiaoquan sighed: "Okay, then let me finish the rice in the bowl?"
...
In the main hall, Zhang Tianhao paced back and forth anxiously. He had been there for more than half an hour. Several times he wanted to rush to the back to find Ma Xiaoquan, but he was stopped by the Jin Yiwei. In desperation, Zhang Tianhao
I had no choice but to hold my breath and endure it, who asked me to ask for anything.
Just when Zhang Tianhao was anxious, Ma Xiaoquan suddenly appeared and laughed: "Ah, Uncle Zhang, I've been waiting for a long time, haha."
Zhang Tianhao turned around and quickly handed over his hands: "Master Deacon, you are here."
Ma Xiaoquan snorted and said: "Uncle Zhang, you are out of town. What do you call me, Mr. Deacon? Just call me by my name. You look anxious. What's going on?"
Zhang Tianhao didn't seem to want to change his title. He sighed: "To be honest, my Zhang family is in crisis and I would like to ask for help."
"Eh?" Ma Xiaoquan said in surprise, "Isn't that right? To be honest, the power of your Zhang family in the court is much greater than that of my deacon. With Uncle Zhang's ability, he is also much greater than me. Why do you suddenly want to do this?"
Are you asking me for help? This is impossible?"
Zhang Tianhao smiled bitterly and said: "Although this is the case, if you meet Wei Zhongxian, no matter how powerful and capable you are, it will not be of any use, right?"
"What? Wei Zhongxian?" Ma Xiaoquan sighed, "Well, many people did come to see me during the day today, but they didn't explain what was going on. I happened to have other things to deal with, so I didn't ask. Well, now
It seems that old guy Wei Zhongxian is causing trouble, huh."
Ma Xiaoquan deliberately called Wei Zhongxian "old guy". Zhang Tianhao listened to his heart and was interested. Although he knew that Ma Xiaoquan and Wei Zhongxian were at odds, there was nothing he could do if Ma Xiaoquan didn't intervene. Now, now that Ma Xiaoquan called him "old guy"
", which proves that Ma Xiaoquan may step in to help.
Zhang Tianhao is also a thief. Ma Xiaoquan did not express his position. He had already thanked him: "Then I will thank the deacon here."
Ma Xiaoquan waved his hand quickly: "Wait a minute, I didn't agree. Uncle Zhang, please don't bring him in randomly. Well, but if this gang won't help you, I have to investigate."
Zhang Tianhao said quickly: "Anyway, thank you first, Mr. Deacon. Well, if Mr. Deacon can help you, we, the Zhang family, will definitely thank you very much."
Ma Xiaoquan shook his head and said: "Uncle Zhang, what do you want me to say? In any case, our two families once had a great possibility of becoming in-laws, but a lot of things happened, so..."
The implication of Ma Xiaoquan's words is that your daughter Zhang Jing's regret in the marriage indirectly led to the consequences of this time. As her father, you must also be an accomplice of her regret in the marriage.
