Zhu Youjian sneered and said, "So you came to beg me to ask me to help you?"
Ma Xiaoquan quickly handed over his hand: "Yes!"
"Haha...I'm afraid it's more than that?" Zhu Youjian smiled meaningfully.
Ma Xiaoquan chuckled and said: "Your Majesty, to be honest, I don't like House very much. How should I put it? My woman Lisa was almost given that by Wei Zhongxian before. It was House who deceived him, but he is my brother-in-law after all.
Brother, I definitely had no intention of killing him... But now that he is dead, my place has become relatively quiet. Your Majesty, this is my subordinate’s truth."
Zhu Youjian nodded and said, "Why are you telling the truth? Because of the investigation by my people, House has actually followed Wei Zhongxian..."
"What?" Ma Xiaoquan had actually known for a long time that House was following Wei Zhongxian, but in front of Zhu Youjian, he still had to show an extremely surprised look.
"Ma Xiaoquan, Ma Xiaoquan, tell me, your brother-in-law has taken refuge with Wei Zhongxian, and you don't even know?"
Ma Xiaoquan suddenly realized, he patted his head and said: "I just said that there were always problems in some businesses before, and Lisa's matter... It turns out that this is the case, House, I really didn't see it, he actually...
....Why"
Zhu Youjian patted Ma Xiaoquan on the shoulder and said: "Don't be upset. House is dead, so we won't pursue the case with a dead man. Well, there is another matter. The person who killed House,
It was indeed Wei Zhongxian who sent someone to do it."
"As expected!" Ma Xiaoquan clapped his hands and said angrily, "My lord, you must vent your anger on your subordinates."
Zhu Youjian laughed and said: "Don't worry, I will do it for you. What do you want Wei Zhongxian to do?"
Ma Xiaoquan blinked: "I dare not say anything else, blackmail him for a large sum of money, hehe..."
Zhu Youjian smiled again: "You Ma Xiaoquan, after going around in circles for a long time, you just want to extort money?"
Ma Xiaoquan lowered his head and said: "You can't say that, Your Majesty, who doesn't love money, right? Besides, my subordinate is still the leader of the bullshit Vulcan Cult. Without some money, I can't support him."
Stay."
"Yes, yes, but you are also you. There were so many people in the Vulcan Cult at first, but you wiped out so many of them in one fell swoop, and there are only a few left. What can you do?"
Ma Xiaoquan sneered in his heart: If it wasn't to avoid making you suspicious, why would I be so aggressive about getting rid of people?
Thinking about it, Ma Xiaoquan said it very bitterly on the surface: "Hey, it's just like that anyway. Since Qinghan left, no one has taken care of the Vulcan Sect, but those people have been gathering together, maybe they will
It will cause social instability. In fact, I don’t want to take over the Vulcan Cult, but when I think of Qinghan, I feel like I’m sorry for her if I don’t leave anything behind, so..."
"Okay, that's fine. I will agree to your request. Just go back and wait for the news. I will definitely give you a good explanation!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
...
After Ma Xiaoquan left, two aides next to Zhu Youjian came out. The two first analyzed the conversation between Ma Xiaoquan and King Xin just now to determine whether Ma Xiaoquan was cheating, and then talked about something else.
A fatter aide asked Zhu Youjian: "Your Majesty, why didn't you tell Ma Xiaoquan that Fang Yun also defected to Wei Zhongxian?"
Another tall aide interjected: "You are stupid. Of course the emperor can't say anything. Ma Xiaoquan has always been deceitful and doesn't hold anything back. How can you do this?"
"Oh, that's it. Your Majesty is wise. Long live your Majesty." The fat staff member complimented Zhu Youjian.
"Well" Zhu Youjian was very proud that these staff members called him the emperor. Although now he is actually just King Xin, but soon after, hum...
"Ma Xiaoquan is one of mine after all. Such a person knows the current affairs and knows how to behave. Last time, I took the bulk of the Vulcan Cult's money. This time House was killed. Let's force Wei Zhongxian and let him
He gave Ma Xiaoquan some blood as a reward. This man loves money, so he is good. Humph, if he dares to betray me, then at most I will kill him and get his money back. In other words
, I just asked Ma Xiaoquan to take care of my money."
The two aides, Fatty and Gao, looked at each other, knelt down in unison, and whispered respectfully: "Your Majesty is wise and mighty, long live long live long live long live..."
...
As soon as Ma Xiaoquan arrived home, he received a letter from the district official.
The content of the letter is very simple, with only two words: Done.
Ma Xiaoquan raised his eyebrows and thought that this guy was quite efficient in doing things. Well, that's good. Next, we can wait for Wei Zhongxian to send someone to the door.
Sure enough, as Ma Xiaoquan expected, less than an hour later, Wei Zhongxian and Li Yongzhen came over to negotiate with Ma Xiaoquan. The purpose of the negotiation was only one, and that was about House.
Ma Xiaoquan looked at Li Yongzhen with a smile and said, "Master Wei asked you to come. Do you want to calm things down, or make things worse?"
Li Yongzhen said with a smile: "No matter what, House is Lord Deacon's brother-in-law. After our Master Wei got the news of House's death, he immediately sent me here to ask Lord Deacon to express his condolences."
Ma Xiaoquan snorted, "Isn't that right? House's death only lasted a day. We know that he didn't die much in Beijing. Did your Mr. Wei get the news so quickly? Did someone say something to him?"
Li Yongzhen was stunned, then smiled and said: "Master Wei is the owner of Dongchang Factory. If you can't find out this information, you would be very incompetent."
"But..." Ma Xiaoquan changed the topic and interrupted Li Yongzhen, "I checked on the spot. Why do you think House's death was caused by your Mr. Wei?" As he said that, Ma Xiaoquan handed over the factory guard sign.
Lost it to Li Yongzhen.
Li Yongzhen took another look and said with a smile: "This is just a brand. Anyone can do it. Based on a factory guard's brand, the deacon arbitrarily believed that it was done by people from the East Factory. This is a bit exaggerated."
Alright?"
"Ha..." Ma Xiaoquan pointed to the sign and said, "As far as I know, every factory guard in the East Factory has a sign, and each person's code name is engraved on the sign.
Eunuch Li, look at the brand, is there a special number?"
Of course Li Yongzhen saw the code name on the brand, but he pretended not to see it and said: "So what, the code name cannot be copied."
"Well, that's it... It seems that you have been prepared for this matter. That's right. You sent people to kill my brother-in-law. Of course you won't admit it. But Eunuch Li, this matter...
... King Xin also knows it... You also know that I, Ma Xiaoquan, am a person who believes in King Xin..."
