Summary of the previous chapter: Ma Xiaoquan threw stones at Wei Jinzhong twice, making Wei Jinzhong unable to stop Zhu Youxiao... In this way, with Ma Xiaoquan's indirect help, Zhu Youxiao ran out of the Qianqing Palace... ..
Ma Xiaoquan, Liu Yijing, Yang Lian and others escorted Zhu Youxiao to the sedan chair.
But... the question arises again: The future emperor is in the sedan chair now, where should he go now?
Zhu Youxiao poked his head out, saw Ma Xiaoquan, and waved to Ma Xiaoquan happily.
Liu Yijing was shocked and grabbed Ma Xiaoquan and said: "Fourth son of the Ma family, the emperor waving to you means that you know where the emperor wants to go most. Please tell me quickly, or it will be too late."
Ma Xiaoquan rolled his eyes and thought, "How can I know what Zhu Carpenter is thinking?"
After thinking about it, Ma Xiaoquan still said: "It is safest to go to Wenhua Hall at this moment."
Liu Yijing thought for a moment, nodded and said: "Okay, let's go to Wenhua Hall first!"
After saying that, Liu Yijing had a brief discussion with Fang Congzhe and others, and then rushed towards the Wenhua Hall surrounded by Zhu Youxiao's sedan.
There are several roads to choose from from the Qianqing Palace to the Wenhua Palace. In order to avoid being intercepted by Li Xuanshi, the ministers walked all the way, first turning through the inner left gate, then passing by the Chalou and Wenlou, and then they arrived huffing and puffing. Wenhua Hall.
The Wenhua Hall was originally the exclusive main hall for the princes, but due to the young age of the princes of the previous generations, it was changed into the emperor's side hall in the 15th year of Jiajing.
The ministers sent Zhu Youxiao to the Wenhua Hall, surrounded the new emperor and got off the sedan, and then started a series of three kowtows and nine bows.
Since all ministers of the Ming Dynasty had to kneel down and salute, the number of manpower guarding the Wenhua Hall was somewhat insufficient. Therefore, after Fang Congzhe and other cabinet members discussed for a while, they decided to let Ma Xiaoquan, a common man, guard the gate of the Wenhua Hall.
Ma Xiaoquan did not refuse, after all, this would save him from having to kneel down to Zhu Youxiao.
Picking up a stick, Ma Xiaoquan swayed to the gate.
Fang Congzheyi couldn't help but worry when he saw Ma Xiaoquan's careless look.
Lu Zhan sneered in his heart. He knew that Ma Xiaoquan didn't know martial arts, so Fang Congzhe just started to worry. Lu Zhan said: "Master Chief Assistant, don't panic. That dude is much harder to deal with than those eunuchs."
Fang Congzhe exclaimed: "But he is the only one?"
Lu Zhan was secretly happy, hoping that Wei Jinzhong and the others would rush over and beat Ma Xiaoquan violently, even to death, but on the surface he said: "Don't worry, Sir, there will definitely be no problem."
Fang Congzhe is not as sinister as Lu Zhan. At this moment, his mind is full of how Zhu Youxiao ascended the throne.
At this moment, Wei Jinzhong led a group of eunuchs to the Wenhua Palace, but... was stopped by Ma Xiaoquan, the "guard" of the Wenhua Palace.
The ministers of the Ming Dynasty were discussing how to let Zhu Youxiao ascend the throne as emperor and do things outside of the Wenhua Palace. These old guys just selectively ignored it.
Ma Xiaoquan cursed secretly in his heart while holding a stick across his chest and confronting Wei Jinzhong and others.
Wei Jinzhong stood at the front, only three steps away from Ma Xiaoquan.
Seeing Ma Xiaoquan alone blocking the entrance of Wenhua Hall, Wei Jinzhong murmured in his heart.
Wei Jinzhong stretched out his hand, and the eunuchs stopped.
Wei Jin said loyally: This kid must be the little bastard who hit me with a stone just now. Damn it... If I don't torture you to death today, my surname will not be Wei.
Thinking about it, Wei Jinzhong was about to take action.
However, just as he was about to take action, Wang Tiqian next to Wei Jinzhong grabbed him.
"What?" Wei Jinzhong glared at Wang Tiqian with some dissatisfaction.
Wang Tiqian frowned and whispered in Wei Jinzhong's ear: "Eunuch, that boy was taken into the prison by Mr. Lu and I today and had a meal of sticks. I didn't expect that he is still alive and well now. He must have martial arts... ..."
Wei Zhongxian raised his eyebrows: "With martial arts, can you withstand so many of us?"
Wang Tigan shook his head: "My father-in-law doesn't know anything. That kid was plotted by Mr. Lu and I today, and he must be simmering with anger. As the saying goes, if you are afraid of being beaten to death, even if there are so many of us, that kid has to rush. Come here, I'm afraid we can't stop you."
Wei Jinzhong curled his lips and thought, "Wang Ti fucks you, you are such a loser." It makes sense.
"Okay, I understand, let's wait for a while and see the situation."
Wang Tigan nodded and said yes.
...
In this way, Ma Xiaoquan, holding his stick horizontally, stopped Wei Jinzhong and dozens of other eunuchs.
After the incense was burned, Wei Jinzhong couldn't help it and pulled Wang Tigan to his side: "Damn it, why do I think it's fake?"
Wang Tiqian also had a face full of sweat: "I...I..."
"What's wrong with you?" Wei Jinzhong slapped Wang Tigan to the ground, pointed at Ma Xiaoquan and ordered, "Find His Highness the Crown Prince for me."
Ma Xiaoquan opened his eyes and swung the stick twice: "I think who of you dares to take the lead? If you don't die, just try the stick in grandpa's hand."
Wei Jinzhong laughed loudly: "Boy, your stick is just a stick, there are so many of us, we can drown you even if we spit."
"What?" Ma Xiaoquan deliberately didn't hear.
Wei Jinzhong repeated: "Spit"
Ma Xiaoquan took a deep breath, his throat twitched, his cheeks bulged, he let out a "poof", and spit out a mouthful of thick phlegm, which went straight to Wei Jinzhong's old face.
"Pah!" Wei Jinzhong couldn't dodge, and there was a mouthful of thick phlegm on his face.
Ma Xiaoquan wiped the corner of his mouth, shook his head and said: "Eunuch Wei, I, Ma Xiaoquan, have heard many requests, but I have never heard such a mean request like yours. How can anyone spit on you?"
Wei Jinzhong subconsciously wiped his old face with his hand, and found that there was sticky yellow phlegm on his hand, which made him feel sick.
"You...you"
Ma Xiaoquan pinched his nose and said disdainfully: "Well, tell me, why are you asking me to spit when I'm so good? I didn't want to spit before, but you asked for it, so I have to satisfy you. Eunuch Wei, I didn't expect you to do it." It's good to have such a bad taste, oh, by the way, I still have some, do you want more, or do you want me to spit on the other side of your face?"
Wei Jinzhong was so angry that he kicked Wang Tigan to the ground who had just climbed up from the ground, and cursed: "Ma Xiaoquan, right? Okay, very good, I remember you, just wait for me!" After that, Wei Jinzhong covered his face and turned away.
As soon as Wei Jinzhong left, it was natural that "the group of eunuchs had no leader." The eunuchs looked at me and I looked at you. After pulling Wang Tigan up from the ground, he retreated in despair.
Seeing Wei Jinzhong and the others leaving, Ma Xiaoquan took a deep breath. He knew that from now on, he and Wei Jinzhong were at odds with each other.
