Summary of the previous chapter: Wei Jinzhong took out the imperial edict of Emperor Tianqi Zhu Youxiao, forcing Ma Xiaoquan to go to the palace in person to see the emperor before Wei Jinzhong...
Ma Xiaoquan and Ma Tong trotted all the way to the imperial city, the Forbidden City, and looked around.
Ma Xiaoquan said: "Uncle Tong, give me a hand and I'll climb over the wall."
Ma Tong shook his head: "This is not possible. There must be guards inside the wall. If you break in rashly, you will definitely be exposed."
Ma Xiaoquan scratched his scalp: "What should we do? It's impossible to enter through the door. We can only climb over the wall."
Ma Tong hesitated for a moment and said: "If there are other choices, I wonder if the first-generation head of the family would be willing?"
"The other options are, don't you have to go over the firewall?"
Ma Tong nodded.
A bad premonition came to his mind, and Ma Xiaoquan said: "It's not drilling holes, is it?"
Ma Tong was stunned for a moment, then nodded seriously.
Ma Xiaoquan smiled bitterly and said, "Uncle Tong, don't tell me that the hole was drilled for dogs?"
Ma Tong chuckled: "That's not true, but the origin of this hole is not very glorious..."
Ma Xiaoquan waved his hand: "As long as it's not a dog hole, what does it matter if it's glorious or not? Uncle Tong, lead the way without further ado."
Ma Tong hummed and led Ma Xiaoquan around to the back of the imperial city.
.......
Ma Xiaoquan and Ma Tong were still standing outside the city wall, but under Ma Tong's exploration and guidance, Ma Xiaoquan saw something strange on the city wall.
Ma Tong squatted down and gently knocked on a wall panel several times. After determining the location, he pushed in hard.
Without making much noise, the wall panel that Ma Tong pushed dented, and immediately, a hole that was only big enough for one person to climb appeared in front of Ma Xiaoquan's eyes.
"Huh?" Ma Xiaoquan looked at Ma Tong in surprise, "Uncle Tong, isn't this too hidden?"
Ma Tong shook his head: "Don't ask so many questions now, without further ado, let's go in first."
After Ma Tong finished speaking, he knelt and got in through the sunken hole. Ma Xiaoquan did not hesitate and followed Ma Tong closely.
...
On the other side of the cave was a thick forest. Ma Tong first stuck his head out and took a look to make sure there was no one there, then he said softly to Ma Xiaoquan behind him.
Ma Xiaoquan stepped forward and asked Ma Tong quietly: "Uncle Tong, what is this place?"
"Eluan Palace..."
"Eluan Palace? Isn't that right? Uncle Tong, you are so awesome. This hole actually leads directly to the Eiluan Palace? Isn't that..."
Ma Tong smiled bitterly and whispered: "Hey, it's a long story. Anyway... we have come in now. The first generation head of the family, you are going to Qianqing Palace, um, you know
How to go."
"Uncle Tong, what about you? Aren't you going?"
Ma Tong shook his head: "As long as I'm here, Madam told me that there are some things that need to be dealt with before leaving..."
Ma Xiaoquan said oh, patted Ma Tong on the shoulder, and slipped away quietly.
Eluan Palace is nominally a place for concubines to take care of themselves in their old age. In fact, Erluan Palace is used to support concubines who have passed out and fallen out of favor.
Since the Erluan Palace is full of expired concubines, in terms of guards, it is much inferior to important palaces such as Qianqing Palace and Kunning Palace.
Ma Xiaoquan walked around the Erluan Palace for a long time, but didn't see a decent guard. Finally, one came out, and he looked like an old guy from the back.
Ma Xiaoquan curled his lips, how could a person like this guard the Yiluan Palace?
Just as he was scorning, a door suddenly opened.
Ma Xiaoquan was startled and quickly hid in the shadows.
Just as Ma Xiaoquan hid in the shadows, a fat figure emerged from the room, followed immediately by a plump and disheveled woman.
"You go into the house, don't follow me out, be careful of being seen."
"Um, no, I haven't asked for enough yet. You said you wanted to accompany me all night, hug that woman, kiss her face greedily a few times, and then knead the woman's breasts several times.
, and then he withdrew his hand without feeling satisfied.
"I'm leaving. Go back quickly and I'll come find you when I have time."
"Well, remember, I must come."
...
In the shadows, Ma Xiaoquan frowned tightly and thought to himself: This Erluan Palace... is the place where concubines take care of themselves in old age, but Emperor Taichang died early, so there may be concubines who are widowed at a young age.
.....Concubines are human beings too, and they need men so much... It seems that this Erluan Palace is actually...
Thinking of this, Ma Xiaoquan couldn't help but shudder. If this woman becomes hungry and thirsty, it will be much more terrifying than a man. What's more, there are many women like that just now in the Erluan Palace.
Ma Xiaoquan shook his head and watched the woman walk into the house, close the door, and then walk out of the shadows.
"Without further delay, I have to rush to Qianqing Palace as soon as possible."
Just as he was about to leave, there was a sudden noise at the door.
"Damn it," Ma Xiaoquan cursed secretly and hid in the shadows again.
As the noise got closer, Ma Xiaoquan heard a very familiar voice.
This is Wei Jinzhong.
"Mother, I have just passed on the imperial edict. Tomorrow, tomorrow Li Qinghan from the Ma family will be here."
"Well, Jin Zhong, you have done a good job, it is in vain that I treat you so badly."
"My queen, please don't say that. I am loyal to my queen, and I will do anything to my heart's content without any hesitation..."
"Okay, stop being glib. By the way, Jin Zhong, is that Li Qinghan... really as beautiful as the rumors say?"
Wei Jinzhong grinned and lied: "Apart from my concubine, who else is more beautiful than my concubine in this world? Concubine, don't worry, that Li Qinghan looks very ordinary."
"Oh, that's right..."
Wei Jinzhong chuckled and said, "My dear, Jinzhong has a merciless request..."
"Say it"
"I heard that when Li Qinghan married Ma Zhi, the grandson of Ma's family, Ma Zhi was transferred to the front line before the marriage was consummated, so..."
"So you think that Li Qinghan is still a virgin, right?"
"Hey, my queen is wise!"
"Wei Jinzhong, you are over fifty and don't have that kind of thing, so why are you still so interested in women, especially virgins? If you really like them, I will reward you with two."
"No, no, no," Wei Jinzhong shook his head and waved his hands, "Mother, you just need to agree to give that Li Qinghan to Jinzhong!"
"You old slave, well, okay, after all, you have come to this Erluan Palace and never want to leave it in your life. If you are a virgin but not a virgin, it is of no use anymore."
