Summary of the previous chapter: At the request of Cao Cao and others, Ma Xiaoquan played a vicious role and "taught" Cao Pi and Cao Zhi severely. Late at night, Ma Xiaoquan sneaked into Cao Zhi's home alone and met Cao Zhi...
....
Ma Xiaoquan nodded and shook his head.
Cao Zhi snorted coldly and said, "Isn't it true? Master Shangxian should be my elder brother, right?"
Ma Xiaoquan smiled and said: "Brother? Cao Zijian, you have more than one brother. Which one are you talking about?"
Cao Zhi said: "Of course it's Cao Pi."
Ma Xiaoquan shook his head and said: "You are wrong, I don't belong to anyone."
"Then why are you so close to Cao Pi's aide Sima Yi?"
"Oh?" Cao Zhi said this, which surprised Ma Xiaoquan. It seemed that the two brothers were fighting openly and secretly to the point of completely spying on the people around each other.
Ma Xiaoquan said: "If I meet Sima Yi a few times, it proves that I have an affair with Cao Pi. If I meet your staff Yang Xiu a few more times, will Cao Pi think that I am yours?"
?”
"This..." Cao Zhi was a little speechless and speechless.
Ma Xiaoquan continued: "In the same way, in order to save you some time ago, I found your two brothers and asked them to plead for you in front of your father and give you a lighter sentence. So, is it true that I am also the one who belongs to them?
Where are the accomplices?”
"What? Two brothers begging for mercy for me?"
Ma Xiaoquan rolled his eyes at Cao Zhi, who was lying on the bed: "What else do you think? To tell you the truth, I don't want to get involved in your nonsense. I also know that you and your two brothers are against your father.
The position can be described as being watched with eager eyes, don’t you think I don’t understand what you are thinking?”
Cao Zhi blushed and said softly: "That's them...I...I don't have that much thought..."
"Since you are here, the public's eyes are sharp. You three brothers are now the most promising to take over your father's job. One is you and the other is your eldest brother Cao Pi. As for your second brother Cao Zhang, he is also a general.
, you are not suitable to be the boss, you kid, dare I say you have never thought about it?"
Ma Xiaoquan said, and slapped Cao Zhi hard on the back with his right hand.
When he "teached" Cao Zhi earlier, Cao Zhi's back was whipped many times by Ma Xiaoquan. Otherwise, how could Cao Zhi lie on the bed?
"Ouch, it hurts me so much, Master Shangxian, you...you..." Although Cao Zhi's back hurt, his voice begging for mercy was very soft. Cao Zhi also knew that Master Shangxian was late at night
Seeing that he had other motives, if he shouted loudly for some reason, I'm afraid he would never have a chance to be on good terms with Lord Shangxian again.
Seeing Cao Zhi's aggrieved look, Ma Xiaoquan nodded with satisfaction and said: "Well, you're a good boy... I'll tell you the truth and ask me to save you."
, it was your mother, Mrs. Bian, who requested this from me."
"My mother?" Cao Zhi opened his mouth and said, "My mother..."
"Don't make such a fuss. Apart from Cao Xiong, the fourth child in your family, your mother loves you the most. Besides, your son is also very hopeful to take over your father's class. Well... your mother is a yi
A woman can't interfere with the affairs of men like you, but although she doesn't say it clearly, she really hopes that you brothers can live in harmony and not ruin the harmony over a fight for the title... Well, this is your mother too.
That’s why you begged me so hard to help you...Cao Zhi, don’t let your mother down..."
Cao Zhi flattened his mouth and nodded heavily with red eyes: "Master Shangxian, I understand. I will definitely live up to my mother's expectations of me."
Ma Xiaoquan hummed: "But...Cao Zhi, why do you think you could make such a low-level mistake so carelessly?"
Cao Zhi gave a bitter smile, shook his head and said, "Hey, I really feel wronged when I think about it. Master Shangxian, you have a disciple named Mao Gang, right?"
"Well yes."
Cao Zhi thought for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said: "Sir, it's not that I, Cao Zhi, intentionally ruined the master-disciple relationship between you and Mao Gang, but Mao Gang is far more complicated than you think...
.The mistake I made this time can be said to be caused by Mao Gang."
"Oh, tell me..."
Ma Xiaoquan poured Cao Zhi a cup of tea and helped Cao Zhi sit up.
Cao Zhi drank the tea, wiped the water from the corner of his mouth, and slowly told Ma Xiaoquan the reason for his mistake.
It turned out that Cao Zhi made such a low-level mistake because of Mao Gang's seduction. Cao Zhi was very vague about the specific seduction process, but Ma Xiaoquan had already guessed it. He had been dealing with Cao Cao for many years and watched.
Ma Xiaoquan, who grew up among these boys, knew the mentality of Cao Cao's sons very well.
"Yeah." After listening to Cao Zhi's retelling, Ma Xiaoquan frowned.
When Master Huang Shigong came to visit unexpectedly earlier, he also said that Mao Gang had a traitor in his head and would definitely act rebellious in the future. Now that Cao Zhi said this, Ma Xiaoquan had to take it seriously even if he didn't take it seriously at first.
Seeing Ma Xiaoquan's silence, Cao Zhi blushed and said, "Sir, I know it makes you feel uncomfortable to say this, but it is the truth. Also, Mao Gang has asked me for an official position many times...
Please ask me to get him an official position or something..."
"Official? Why did Mao Gang want an official?"
Cao Zhi shook his head and said: "I don't know either, but Mao just told me that because Lord Shangxian offended the emperor, the emperor issued an imperial edict saying that as long as the big man is here, your family and people around you will never be able to
Being an official, uh, except for you now..."
"Well, it is indeed true, but it's okay. I have never been interested in the world's disputes. If Liu Xie did this, I have no objection."
Cao Zhi said: "But Mao Gang didn't think so. Mao Gang told me that he wanted to become a scholar like his uncle."
"Haha..." Ma Xiaoquan shook his head, "I'm afraid it will be difficult to realize what Mao Gang thinks..."
Cao Zhi said: "No matter what, please pay more attention to Mao Gang, Lord Shangxian. I'm in trouble this time, damn it."
Ma Xiaoquan smiled and patted Cao Zhi's shoulder gently, and asked curiously: "Cao Zhi, since you know that it was Mao Gang who tempted you to make the mistake, why didn't you tell your father, or tell me from the beginning?"
Cao Zhi smiled bitterly and said: "I have thought about it too, but Yang Xiu analyzed it for me. If I do this, it will be like a mad dog biting people in a hurry. Not only will it not be forgiven, but it will also offend my father, um, and offend me."
you......"
Ma Xiaoquan nodded: "You are not wrong in doing this, and Yang Xiu's analysis is also correct...I know this." Ma Xiaoquan said, stood up and was about to leave.
After taking two steps, Ma Xiaoquan turned his head and said to Cao Zhi: "By the way, Cao Zhi, after this incident, I have completely repaid Mrs. Bian's favor. Please don't bother me anymore with the fight between your brothers."
Already."
Cao Zhi nodded and stood up. Due to the pain in his back, he couldn't bend down. Cao Zhi could only lower his head slightly and replied respectfully: "I understand."
"Yeah" Ma Xiaoquan hummed, and as soon as he concentrated, his hands immediately shot out two green flames, wrapping himself up.
Cao Zhi was surprised when he saw it. Just when he was about to take another look, a stream of pale white smoke rushed towards him. Cao Zhi's eyes were blurred, his body became limp, and he knew nothing.
Seeing Cao Zhi fainted on the ground, Ma Xiaoquan extinguished the flame in his hand, walked quietly to Cao Zhi, dragged Cao Zhi onto the bed, covered him with a quilt, and moved the objects where he had just sat.
After returning to his position, he sneaked out through the window.
As soon as Ma Xiaoquan jumped out of the window, he heard Cao Zhi snorting in the room.
Cao Zhi rubbed his temples, opened his eyes and found that he was on the bed, and everything in the room was placed in its original position as usual.
He turned around and looked at the teapot and teacups on the table. The position had not changed at all.
Cao Zhi was a little confused and couldn't help but said to himself: "Did I drink tea just now? Could it be that... I had a dream? But how could this dream be so real..."
Outside the house, Ma Xiaoquan pursed his lips and smiled, then disappeared into the night...
Returning to the Ma family compound, Ma Xiaoquan went straight to the seventh lady Qing Yi's bedroom. As soon as he opened the door and entered, he was hugged by a soft and delicate body from behind.
Turning around, I saw it was the seventh lady, Qing Yi.
Ma Xiaoquan smiled and reached into Qing Yi's chest and kneaded it twice, causing Qing Yi to gasp.
"My husband hates me." Qing Yi shyly twisted her body and broke away from Ma Xiaoquan's arms.
Ma Xiaoquan chuckled: "Are Qiang'er and the others asleep?"
Qing Yi nodded: "Go to bed early, sir. How about the incense I gave you?"
Ma Xiaoquan nodded: "Don't tell me, it's really useful, but the time is a little short. As soon as I climbed out of the window, that boy Cao Zhi woke up with a groan."
Qing Yi curled her lips: "That incense only lasts for less than half a stick, and it's not all specially made for you. Humph, you, a fake immortal, are so stubborn that you want to create something like Yunlai Wonderland.
....."
Ma Xiaoquan raised his eyebrows: "What do you know? This is why it feels mysterious."
Qing Yi pouted her lips and gave Ma Xiaoquan a fierce look. Ma Xiaoquan felt itchy and unbearable. He pounced on Qing Yi like a hungry tiger and threw Qing Yi to the ground.
"Ms. sir, you... um..." Qing Yi wanted to struggle, but Ma Xiaoquan's strength was much stronger than him. After a few useless struggles, there was a sound coming from the room.
