【1397】Innocent Implicated (9)
Summary of the previous chapter: Yang Lian came to visit Ma Xiaoquan, nominally to ask Ma Xiaoquan if he dared to deal with Wei Zhongxian, but in fact he was testing Ma Xiaoquan's attitude
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Fast forward to late May, and the weather is getting hotter.
Ma Xiaoquan was resting at home, and suddenly, a subordinate came in and whispered: "My lord, Wei Zhongxian was scolded by the emperor~"
"Oh?" Ma Xiaoquan put down the teacup and asked, "Because of what?" ”
"The little one doesn't know, but the little one found out from the palace that Wei Zhongxian didn't know what made the emperor angry, and the emperor blasted Wei Zhongxian out of the palace and let him think about it behind closed doors at home."
Ma Xiaoquan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered the past in history.
Wei Zhongxian was blasted out of the palace by Zhu Youxiao, and at this short moment, Yang Lian finally couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, and participated in Wei Zhongxian's play, and in his recital, Wei Zhongxian's twenty-four major sins were listed.
It's just that from this moment on, Yang Lian embarked on the road of no return.
Ma Xiaoquan sighed and said, "Okay, I know, you go down, continue to find out the news for me in the palace, and report back immediately as soon as there is any trouble." ”
"Yes~"
While he was hesitating, the next person suddenly came to report, saying that it was the imperial envoy Yang Lian who asked to see him.
Ma Xiaoquan was stunned, his heart was at this time, Brother Yang still has this heart to find me?
Shaking his head, Ma Xiaoquan got up and prepared to greet him in person.
"Hehe, no need, I've already come in myself, haha" Yang Lian pushed open the door and walked in.
Ma Xiaoquan smiled slightly and bowed his hand to Yang Lian: "Brother Yang, why are you here again?" ”
Yang Lian frowned and said, "Brother Ma, I came here today, you should know what I'm going to say, right?" ”
Ma Xiaoquan said: "Brother Yang wants to participate in Wei Zhongxian?" ”
Yang Lian nodded: "That's right, Wei Zhongxian was thinking about it behind closed doors at home at this time, and I can't let go of this opportunity."
Ma Xiaoquan said: "Brother Yang, although Wei Zhongxian has thought about it behind closed doors, it doesn't mean that he will stay at home honestly." ”
Yang Lian said: "I naturally know this, before coming to you, I discussed it with Zuo Guangdou, Wei Dazhong, Li Yingsheng and others, to be honest, they don't agree with me now going to Wei Zhongxian, saying that it is too risky."
Ma Xiaoquan nodded: "Well, then Brother Yang, what do you think, what do you think, what about this timing, do you think, how big is the risk for you to go to Wei Zhongxian?" ”
Yang Lian sighed and said: "Actually, I know very well what I am going to do next, I also know how big the risk is, I think I, Yang Lian, have received the edict of the previous emperor, no matter what, I will not let this dynasty fall unless I Yang Lian dies~ Oh no, even if I die, being a ghost will definitely not let Wei Zhongxian succeed~"
Yang Lian said it categorically, and Ma Xiaoquan was also infected by his righteousness.
"Brother Yang, since you have made up your mind, then the younger brother will not persuade much, the younger brother wants to ask Brother Yang, how many crimes do you plan to participate in Wei Zhongxian?"
Yang Lian snorted and said, "Twenty-four deadly sins." ”
Ma Xiaoquan nodded, his heart is really twenty-four major sins.
"Then do you know that even if you list a hundred major sins, if you don't send the book to the emperor in person, I'm afraid you will be throttled halfway~"
Yang Lian sighed and said: "Brother Ma, how can I not know what you said, so I plan to carry the music book with me, as long as I see the emperor, I will immediately participate in Wei Zhongxian's gelding!" ”
Yang Lian paused for a moment, and his brows furrowed again: "It's just that the emperor has been playing with wood in the Heart Cultivation Hall recently, either Wei Zhongxian or Ke Yinyue, and it is my turn to accompany him, I really don't have any good way to meet the emperor." ”
Ma Xiaoquan rolled his eyes and said, "Brother Yang, if I say that I will find a way to let the emperor go to court, can you seize that opportunity?" ”
Yang Lian was stunned for a moment, and then nodded happily: "Of course, Brother Ma, it's just that you said it easily, you are also an idler now, how can you stir up the emperor?" ”
Ma Xiaoquan smiled slightly, and sold a pass: "Well, Brother Yang doesn't have to worry about it, you just have to prepare the playbook, as long as the emperor goes to court, you can give it a go~"
"Good!" Yang Lian nodded heavily, "Then please, Brother Ma, my good brother~"
Ma Xiaoquan shook his head: "Brother Yang, don't thank you, in fact, I haven't been able to help you too much, hey~~"
Yang Lian smiled bitterly: "That's enough, Brother Ma, I'm here today, and there's one more thing I'm like, it's possible, this is the last time I came to your house to talk to you like this."
Ma Xiaoquan nodded and did not say anything.
Yang Lian continued: "Brother Yang has no other requirements, if I have any accidents, I hope Brother Ma will take care of my family on my behalf!" ”
Ma Xiaoquan's chest suddenly blocked, and his eyes turned red.
Yang Lian patted Ma Xiaoquan's shoulder: "Manly man, don't cry easily, Brother Ma, you are not a member of my Donglin Party, so I won't go around with you, I Yang Lian In my life, there are not many people who can afford you Ma Xiaoquan, count it as one~"
After that, Yang Lian turned around, turned his head and left, without giving Ma Xiaoquan a chance to speak.
Ma Xiaoquan endured the discomfort, swallowed tears, and watched Yang Lian's thin back gradually disappear
The next day, Ma Xiao saw the emperor in an all-round way, and when he talked about the war in Liaodong, his purpose was very clear, and when the emperor heard about the war in Liaodong, he must want to go to the court and let the ministers come to discuss it.
Zhu Youxiao's mouth was repeated, Ma Xiaoquan was very happy after hearing it, and hurriedly sent someone to secretly tell Yang Lian that the emperor would go to court.
Who knew that Wei Zhongxian suddenly appeared at this time.
He got Zhu Youxiao a few fine rosewood, and when Zhu Youxiao saw that there was a superb wood, he forgot all about the court.
Pity Ma Xiaoquan and Yang Lian, both of them thought that the emperor would go to court, so they stood in front of the gate of Qianqing Palace early again and waited.
waited until noon, neither of them saw the emperor come to court, and the officials who came according to the usual practice dispersed one after another, and in front of the palace gate, only Ma Xiaoquan and Yang Lian were left.
At this time, a eunuch who passed the decree suddenly came over, and seeing that Ma Xiaoquan and Yang Lian had not left, the mother said in a girly manner: "Lord Deacon, Lord Du Imperial Envoy, what are you still waiting for, the emperor is not coming today~"
