Wei Zhongxian chuckled and said: "Girl Hou Mao's eyes are very sharp. Yes, this pearl is indeed not of high quality, but it is indeed the key thing that I, Old Wei, developed in the first place."
Hou Qiuhong pouted: "Hasn't your key thing been cut off by yourself?"
"Hey, hey, hey~~" Wei Zhongxian rolled his eyes and thought to himself, Mao Yatou is really sharp-tongued right now. Damn it, if I have a chance today, I won't be able to crush you in bed at night.
"You are wrong. I bought this pearl for my girl in Zhuozhou. Unfortunately, in order to protect this pearl, my girl was... ah..." Wei Zhongxian said this,
He forced out a few tears and pretended to be sad.
Hou Qiuhong said disdainfully: "You lied, and you were never merciful to the Donglin gang. Wang Wenyan, Yang Lian and Zuo Guangdou, which one was not tortured to death by you?"
"Look at you, that is my daughter, can I lie? Besides, am I, Old Wei, not good to you masters and servants? Those grandsons of the Donglin Party bullied me too much. They interfere with me every day and say this and that.
I had no choice but to attack them."
Not to be outdone, Hou Qiuhong said: "What about Ma Xiaoquan? Ma Xiaoquan doesn't seem to have any big issues with you. He's not a member of the Donglin Party. Why can't I see you always having trouble with others?"
"Hey, Ma Xiaoquan is Ma Xiaoquan. He was the one who provoked me first. Besides, I didn't do anything to him, right?"
It's okay not to mention Ma Xiaoquan, but when he mentions Ma Xiaoquan, Ke Yinyue thinks even more.
Hou Qiuhong saw his master's thoughts and said, "Stop talking about this pearl daughter girl like you. Just tell me, why are you giving this pearl?"
Wei Zhongxian was stunned for a moment, then he chuckled and rubbed his hands: "It's nothing, I just thought that I still have some unfinished business with the Donglin Party, and the Emperor doesn't have anyone to serve him at this moment.
So I thought, Madam, why not go first..."
Hou Qiuhong said: "Oh, you have been talking for a long time, just because you want the master to monitor the emperor on your behalf."
"Hey, Hou Mao girl, what are you talking about? The emperor is the most powerful person in the world, how can you call it surveillance?" Wei Zhongxian turned to look at Ke Yinyue, who had never spoken, and said politely, "Oh, madam, what are you talking about?
You have moved here, it is a bit far away from the Emperor, don’t you miss the Emperor?"
Ke Yinyue said nothing.
When Wei Zhongxian saw it, he thought to himself, you bastard, huh, fortunately Yongzhen told me something, I don't believe you are not worried.
"Uh, madam, I heard that several of the concubines around the emperor seem to be pregnant..."
As soon as Wei Zhongxian said these words, Ke Yinyue became anxious: "What, are you telling the truth?"
"Of course..."
Ke Yinyue gritted his teeth and said, "I didn't pay attention for a while, why did it go so fast?"
Wei Zhongxian added fuel to the fire: "Yes, it's quick, and I also heard that some of those pregnant concubines seemed to have been recommended by Ma Xiaoquan."
It is true that the concubines are pregnant, but some of them were recommended by Ma Xiaoquan. This is Wei Zhongxian's nonsense. These concubines are all chosen from a hundred to ten thousand. The matter of selecting concubines is to manage the emperor's daily life.
Ma Xiaoquan, a deacon in uniform and uniform, has no control over what the eunuchs in the house are doing, let alone control.
That is to say, she still believed the lies told by Ke Yinyue and Wei Zhongxian.
"This Ma Xiaoquan is too much..."
Wei Zhongxian added more firewood: "Yes, so, I said you go and blow the pillow for the emperor. I think it's better to just give up the deacon Ma Xiaoquan."
Just as Ke Yinyue was about to agree, Hou Qiuhong interrupted: "Old Wei, I'm afraid you just want to leave Ma Xiaoquan and there's no other way. Can you borrow my master's hand to do it?"
Ke Yinyue was stunned for a moment, but also reacted and looked at Wei Zhongxian.
Being exposed on the spot, Wei Zhongxian laughed and scratched his head, secretly cursing Hou Qiuhong for getting in the way, but on the surface he said: "What's the big deal?"
Ke Yinyue sneered and said: "I don't care about you and Ma Xiaoquan's affairs, and I don't want to care about it, but the concubine in the palace is pregnant with the emperor's child without permission, so I have to care about it, and I will enter the palace as soon as possible."
Wei Zhongxian secretly lamented that it was a pity. He originally thought of killing three birds with one stone (deceiving guest Yinyue into the palace to spy on the emperor was one bird, asking guest Yinyue to get rid of the concubines who were pregnant with dragon seeds was two birds, and pulling out the thorn in Ma Xiaoquan was three birds).
Birds), now it seems that we can only kill two birds with one stone, so let’s kill two birds with one stone.
"That's okay, as long as you are willing to enter the palace~"
"By the way, Ma Xiaoquan, how are you doing lately?"
Wei Zhongxian was stunned for a moment and asked: "Why do you ask him?"
Hou Qiuhong replied on behalf of his guest Yinyue: "He defrauded the master of his house, and the master still has some arguments to argue with him."
"Then do you want me to..."
"No need, just do your thing and stay out of the way." Hou Qiuhong interrupted.
Wei Zhongxian felt a little aggrieved, but there was nothing he could do. Hou Qiuhong was Ke Yinyue's personal maid, and offending her would be tantamount to offending Ke Yinyue. Ke Yinyue was the holy lady and the emperor's wet nurse.
Even if I am honored as nine thousand years old by others, I am afraid that in the heart of the emperor, I am still not as good as this woman.
Come on, let's not mess with them. As long as she agrees to enter the palace to help monitor the emperor, she will not worry about anything else. As for Ma Xiaoquan, huh~~ sooner or later he will have to look good.
...
In Ma's study room.
"Ah sneeze~" Ma Xiaoquan rubbed his nose, tilted his head and murmured, "Why do I always feel like someone is plotting against me?"
Beside Ma Xiaoshen, Bei Mingxue, with her sideburns curled up, heard him murmuring: "The tree attracts the wind. You have many identities now, and they are all important. It is inevitable that you will be plotted against."
"Oh?" Ma Xiaoquan turned to look at Bei Mingxue, "Isn't it rare for you to speak so seriously? You are not Bei Mingshuang, are you?"
Bei Mingxue blushed and shook her head: "No."
"Oh, that means you have become mature, um, not bad~"
Bei Mingxue smiled slightly and said: "Ma Xiaoquan, I've had enough fun. I'm not young anymore. I want to get married."
Ma Xiaoquan was stunned and said: "Didn't you say wait a little longer?"
Bei Mingxue shook her head: "No wait, seeing that Fangfang has given birth to a son for you, I also want to be a mother."
Ma Xiaoquan put down the book in his hand and said with a pretended smile: "It's easy to have a son. Can we do it now?"
Bei Mingxue murmured softly: "You can't do it now. Our Beiming family has rules. When a couple has a wedding, the woman must remain a virgin, and she must also lose her virginity in front of the elders in the family."
"What? No?" Ma Xiaoquan was startled, "Oh, you mean one day, if we do something so shy, your parents will have to watch it? Your grandparents are the only ones who can count.
Beiming is here, do you want his old man to watch?"
