Summary of the previous chapter: During the more than two years that Ma Xiaoquan was absent from Beijing, Wei Zhongxian's power became even larger, and the reason why he was able to have such a huge network of power was also due to the embezzlement of the Zhang family's property

+++++++++++++++++++++

"Oh~~" Li Qinghan suddenly realized, "No wonder I heard that Wei Zhongxian regretted it later~ It turns out that the Zhang family's property was given to you~"

Ma Xiaoquan shrugged: "Qing Han, don't say it, the Zhang family's industry is complicated, if you don't have any skills, you don't have some capable subordinates, you really can't take it~"

Li Qinghan was puzzled: "You said it nicely, where did you come from so many people who can do business?" ”

Ma Xiaoquan said with a smile: "With my identity as a deacon of Jinyiwei, it is not easy to find someone to help me manage the industry?" ”

Li Qinghan blinked and said, "Oh, you're talking about Sister Yue'er's flower family." ”

Ma Xiaoquan nodded: "Qinghan, you are too smart, but now this business is the Hua family on the surface, but in fact, secretly, it is still done by the original Zhang family, after all, they are all familiar with it." ”

Li Qinghan was taken aback and said worriedly: "Then aren't you afraid that Zhang Tianhao will take this opportunity to make a comeback and then swallow these businesses again?" ”

"Ha~~" Ma Xiaoquan smiled, "I'm not afraid, on the contrary, I'm afraid that Zhang Tianhao won't come to get it, hehe~~"

"What do you mean?" Li Qinghan was confused

At this moment, Hua Yue walked in and said with a smile: "Qinghan, let me explain it to you, Ma Xiaoquan, he asked our Hua family to take care of those businesses, but in fact, it is the Zhang family's own people who take care of it~ Our Hua family's people are just a supervisor~"

"Overseer?"

"Yes~" Hua Yue walked up to Li Qinghan and said with a smile, "It's the supervisor, Ma Xiaoquan has actually reached an agreement with Zhang Tianhao a long time ago, as long as the Zhang family sincerely helps him do business for three years!" Three years later, Ma Xiaoquan unconditionally took all the business back! ”

"Three years?" Li Qinghan was shocked, "Ma Xiaoquan, why is it three years?" So much business, you need three years? ”

Ma Xiaoquan said: "Three years is already the limit, in the future, a lot of things will happen, even if I don't let go after three years, I will not continue to hold these properties, besides, at that time, we should also withdraw~ um~~ I won't talk about the specifics, I have my own reason!" You'll find out later! ”

The two girls glanced at each other and hummed in unison

A few days later, when a court official mentioned Wang Wenyan again, Zhu Youxiao had already forgotten about it.

Ma Xiaoquan was a little disappointed, although he knew that history was like this, but it was better to be famous than to meet, when he saw Zhu Youxiao's indifferent face, Ma Xiaoquan's heart suddenly cooled down.

At this time, someone secretly came to persuade Ma Xiaoquan and asked him to take refuge in Wei Zhongxian, Ma Xiaoquan was stunned, and said in his heart I and Wei Zhongxian are incompatible, are you a lobbyist?

The lobbyist looked at Ma Xiaoquan's surprised expression and said with a smile: "Don't be surprised, Lord Deacon, this matter is actually approved by Gonggong Wei, so as long as Lord Deacon nods and agrees, we don't have to pay anything, we will naturally be friends in the future~"

Ma Xiaoquan was extremely angry, picked up the lobbyist, and scolded: "What the hell are you doing when I am Ma Xiaoquan?" You go to be Wei Zhongxian's lackey, just be his birds and beasts, get out~~"

After the lobbyist went back in dismay, he reported the news that he failed to persuade Ma Xiaoquan to Wei Zhongxian.

Wei Zhongxian wasn't too surprised, he knew that his solicitation would not bring in Ma Xiaoquan.

"Well, I don't blame you for this, Ma Xiaoquan is too difficult to serve, since he refuses to submit to me, then don't blame me for being unkind, hum~~" Wei Zhongxian said as he slapped the table heavily

In the next few days, as long as Wei Zhongxian's eunuchs had something, they tried every means to push the blame on Ma Xiaoquan.

Although Ma Xiaoquan is not afraid, there are many people, which will naturally affect his reputation, and at this critical moment, Zhu Youxiao didn't know what Wei Zhongxian said, so he asked Ma Xiaoquan to be in charge of patrolling the outskirts of the city.

Although he is still a deacon, Zhu Youxiao's announcement is undoubtedly demoting Ma Xiaoquan.

Of course, Ma Xiaoquan was dissatisfied, he found Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, and asked Zhu Youzhen for help.

Zhu Youzhen is also benevolent and righteous, of course, the most important thing is that Zhu Youzhen is very unaccustomed to Wei Zhongxian, but since he is just a prince, most days, he does not ask about the affairs of the court.

Zhu Youzhen interceded with Zhu Youxiao, and after Zhu Youxiao listened, he withdrew Ma Xiaoquan's order to patrol the suburbs, but he still arranged a temporary errand for him

Wei Zhongxian was very happy when he learned that Ma Xiaoquan was stripped of power by the emperor, and he summoned himself to discuss the next development plan.

Some people proposed to continue to suppress Ma Xiaoquan while he was weakened, so that he could not turn over, while another group represented by Li Yongzhen suggested attacking the Donglin party.

After weighing the pros and cons, Wei Zhongxian still decided to poison the Donglin Party first, and in terms of hatred, Wei Zhongxian was still more inclined to deal with the Donglin Party

Ma Xiaoquan has not said much since he was temporarily stripped of his rights by Zhu Youxiao, anyway, whether he is empty or not, there are still so many people under him, and there are still so many people in the court.

On this morning, just after breakfast, the doorman came to report, saying that it was the left deputy imperial envoy Yang Lianyang who asked to see him.

Ma Xiaoquan was stunned, hurriedly straightened his collar, and went out to greet Yang Lian in person.

Ma Xiaoquan has always admired Yang Lian, firstly, because he has read some about Yang Lian's past in historical classics, and secondly, because of his contact with Yang Lian, he feels the integrity and loyalty of this person.

After the two met, Ma Xiaoquan immediately led Yang Lian to the study.

After serving the tea, without waiting for Yang Lian to speak, Ma Xiaoquan asked first: "Lord Yang came to me today, but do you want to talk about Wei Zhongxian?" ”

Yang Lian was stunned for a moment, and then nodded: "Lord Deacon's ears are so bright, that's right, it's Wei Zhongxian." ”

Ma Xiaoquan said: "Lord Yang, please say it~"

Yang Lian nodded, and said: "I have been entrusted by the first emperor to assist the heir emperor (Zhu Youzhen), who would have expected that there will be unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and people will have good fortune and misfortune, over the years, traitors and chaotic parties have emerged in endlessly, and Liaodong Ningyuan has been in trouble one after another, and now, a Wei Zhongxian suddenly appeared, my Ming Dynasty is in danger~"
