Summary of the previous chapter: Ma Xiaoquan took the token and led all the team members. At the gate of the finish line, he was stopped by Wei Zhongxian. Wei Zhongxian asked Ma Xiaoquan for the token..., but Ma Xiaoquan certainly didn't give it...
"Ma Xiaoquan, I'll fuck your mother," Wei Zhongxian cursed angrily.
Ma Xiaoquan's eyes turned cold, he grabbed Wei Zhongxian and slapped him twice.
The sound of the slap was so loud that Ma Xiaoquan slapped Wei Zhongxian so hard that stars appeared in his eyes.
"Are you still talking about it?" Ma Xiaoquan said, pulling on Wei Zhongxian's collar.
"No... let's stop talking about Ma Xiaoquan. If you have the ability, let me go!"
Ma Xiaoquan let go of his hands, and Wei Zhongxian collapsed to the ground with a thud.
"Hey" Ma Xiaoquan pretended to raise his hand and wanted to hit him. Wei Zhongxian quickly covered his head and lay on the ground pretending to be dead.
Ma Xiaoquan shrugged, waved to the team members behind him, and led them away.
...
Seeing Zhu Youxiao, Ma Xiaoquan presented the token to him. Zhu Youxiao opened it and took a look, smiling with satisfaction: "Ma Aiqing, you are really amazing. You can go so fast. I don't even know how you did it. Eh.
?Where's Zhongxian? I asked him to go out to greet you, but why did we see you coming and Zhongxian didn't come?"
Ma Xiaoquan's heart skipped a beat and asked, "Your Majesty, did you ask Eunuch Wei to collect the tokens we brought back?"
Zhu Youxiao shook his head: "No, I just want Zhongxian to see if you are all back."
Ma Xiaoquan said oh.
At this moment, Wei Zhongxian appeared. He lowered his head, rubbed his face, and stood back to Zhu Youxiao without saying a word.
Zhu Youxiao saw Wei Zhongxian lowering his head and asked: "Zhongxian, I asked you to greet him, why did you fail?"
Wei Zhongxian raised his head. There were two five-finger handprints on each side of his face. He pointed at his face and cried to Zhu Youxiao: "Your Majesty, you have to make the decision for me." As he said that, Wei Zhongxian knelt down with a bang.
In front of Zhu Youxiao, he burst into tears.
Zhu Youxiao saw Wei Zhongxian's beaten face and said in surprise: "What's wrong? Who beat you?"
Wei Zhongxian flattened his old mouth, pointed at Ma Xiaoquan, and said viciously: "Your Majesty, the one who beat this old slave is Ma Xiaoquan. Your Majesty, this old slave was following orders, but Ma Xiaoquan didn't know what to do, and even scolded you. The old slave wanted to fight him desperately, but he didn't."
I can’t beat it...wuwuwuwu..."
"Scold me?" Zhu Youxiao was stunned for a moment, then looked at Ma Xiaoquan, "Ma Aiqing, did you scold me?"
Ma Xiaoquan glanced at Wei Zhongxian and said: "Your Majesty, your Majesty is wise and powerful. I am your minister. How can any minister scold his master? Eunuch Wei is just talking nonsense. Your Majesty, Eunuch Wei was indeed beaten by Weichen, but there is a reason."
Ah... Eunuch Wei stopped Wei Chen for no reason and said that he wanted to check the token that the emperor had personally put down. Wei Chen believed it and gave the token to Eunuch Wei. Unexpectedly, he took the token and refused to give it to Wei Chen.
In front of the minister, he confiscated the token! Your Majesty, you personally prepared the token. Wei Zhongxian confiscated it when he said it was confiscated. He didn’t take your Majesty seriously at all. Besides, Your Majesty also said it just now.
, Eunuch Wei was not asked to receive the token... So Wei Chen felt that Eunuch Wei had lied at that time, but... after Eunuch Wei was exposed on the spot by Wei Chen, he even insulted Wei Chen's mother...
.... Your Majesty, a scholar cannot be killed but cannot be humiliated. My mother has gone through all kinds of hardships to raise Wei Chen from a slap to such a big size. It is not easy, but Wei Zhongxian... Your Majesty, Wei Chen is really angry.
However, he just slapped Eunuch Wei a little, but Eunuch Wei slapped himself several times, and threatened Wei Chen, saying that it was all thanks to Wei Chen... Your Majesty, you have to give Wei Chen a slap in the face.
I make the decision," Ma Xiaoquan said, and knelt down in front of Zhu Youxiao, sobbing loudly.
Wei Zhongxian was stunned. Ma Xiaoquan is so good at making things up. It was obviously you who beat me, but now you say that I beat myself?
Looking at Ma Xiaoquan again, he had already hugged Zhu Youxiao's legs and was crying so sadly.
Wei Zhongxian broke out in a cold sweat. This bastard Ma Xiaoquan is even more damn scoundrel than me. No, I, Old Wei, will never lose to you.
Thinking of this, Wei Zhongxian also threw himself in front of Zhu Youxiao, hugged his other leg, and burst into tears.
Zhu Youxiao was completely speechless. He wanted to break away from these two people, but to his surprise, he couldn't break away no matter how hard he moved.
Helpless, Zhu Youxiao had no choice but to change the subject: "Okay, we'll talk about your matters later. Well, what about Li Zongyu? Why hasn't anyone from his team returned?"
An official came out and said respectfully: "Replying to the emperor, General Li's team suddenly collapsed at the city gate. General Li is now personally delivering the tokens."
"Everyone collapsed? What happened?"
Wei Zhongxian knelt in front of Zhu Youxiao's left leg and was about to speak, saying that all this was Ma Xiaoquan's fault. Unexpectedly, as soon as he said the word "emperor", Ma Xiaoquan covered his mouth.
Ma Xiaoquan said first: "Your Majesty, I heard that General Li encouraged his people last night and specially prepared a lot of food for them. General Li was very hospitable and even invited Wei Chen. Wei Chen found that General Li and the others ate hot food.
, drank cold water again... Could it be that I have a bad stomach?"
Zhu Youxiao frowned and said humbly: "Eating hot food and drinking cold water, no wonder Li Zongyu will definitely have diarrhea. I am really disappointed!"
Wei Zhongxian broke away from Ma Xiaoquan, his face turned red, and he said angrily: "Your Majesty, don't listen to Ma Xiaoquan's nonsense. He did all this. After all, he did it. He can't eat everything bad, right?"
Ma Xiaoquan took Wei Zhongxian's hand and said with an innocent face: "Eunuch Wei, why do you say that? What did I do? Everyone's eyes were bright. How did I, Ma Xiaoquan, come back this way? I passed it.
There are many levels of checkpoints.”
Wei Zhongxian's face turned red and he argued: "Okay, you said there was a checkpoint, so why weren't you left behind?"
Ma Xiaoquan smashed the bar and said: "Who said they didn't stay? There are eleven people in my team. Do you think there are fewer people now?"
Zhu Youxiao asked: "Ma Aiqing, did you say that Zhongxian set a secret card for you on the way?"
Ma Xiaoquan glared at Wei Zhongxian. He knew that he could not pose a threat to Wei Zhongxian without evidence. He shook his head and pretended to be unsure: "I don't know whose secret card it is. Anyway, Wei Chen and his team members came back with great difficulties. By the way, Your Majesty,
There are several members of Weichen's team who are not back now just because they were entangled by hidden cards, but the emperor can rest assured that they are not in any danger, well, they should be back soon!"
Zhu Youxiao said angrily: "Were you responsible for Wei Zhongxian?"
