Summary of the previous chapter: Wei Zhongxian was dealing with the Donglin Party, blocking Yang Lian's performance, and did not forget to take the opportunity to step on Ma Xiaoquan

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

The next morning, Ma Xiaoquan was having dinner at home, and just after a few bites, a eunuch came to the door.

Ma Xiaoquan put down his chopsticks and knelt on the ground inexplicably.

The holy decree is written very concisely, mainly on one point, saying that Ma Xiao is doing nothing, and from now on, half of the court will be deducted, and this is admirable!

After the eunuch left, Mrs. Ma couldn't help but scold.

Ma Xiaoquan comforted Mrs. Ma, hastily took a few mouthfuls of food, and then entered the study with the holy decree.

Li Qinghan and Hua Yue glanced at each other, the two daughters nodded to each other, put down their rice bowls, and followed Ma Xiaoquan into the study.

After closing the door, Li Qinghan said dissatisfiedly: "What is the situation with the emperor, he wants to demote you!" ”

Ma Xiaoquan grinned contemptuously: "It's still a trivial matter, I guess the next step is not such a simple thing as reducing Lu, hum, besides, just the money of Yulu, I Ma Xiaoquan has never looked at it." ”

Hua Yuexiu frowned slightly, shook her head and said: "You can't say that, Zhu Youxiao can demote your Yulu, presumably someone next to him must be stumbling on you, Ma Xiaoquan, if you don't fight back, I'm afraid that next, you will really have to be demoted." ”

Li Qinghan said angrily: "Hmph, I think he Zhu Youxiao dares?" ”

Ma Xiaoquan shook his head with a smile: "Qinghan, people are emperors, people are kings, I am ministers, do you say people dare?" ”

"But Ma Xiaoquan, Sister Yue'er is right, if you don't fight back, I'm afraid it will really get worse and worse next~"

Ma Xiaoquan nodded: "This is also the reason why I put down my job and came to the study, well, you two help me to serve as a staff officer, what should I do next?" ”

The two girls glanced at each other, and Li Qinghan said, "Actually, you have already thought about it, right?" You put down your job and know we're going to come along, don't you? ”

Ma Xiaoquan gave a thumbs up: "It's so smart, fortunately, you two are my women, if you put it on my opponent, then I won't have a peaceful life!" ”

The two daughters glanced at each other again, and said in unison: "We are not eunuch women!" ”

Ma Xiaoquan smiled, he didn't say that his opponent must be Wei Zhongxian, but the two daughters unanimously thought that the opponent he said was Wei Zhongxian

The next day, Ma Xiao met with the emperor in full swing and once again chatted with the emperor about the war in Liaodong.

Zhu Youxiao was hesitating whether to gather ministers to discuss the border issue, but Ma Xiaoquan made him even more determined.

After Ma Xiaoquan left, Zhu Youxiao clamored to go to court, and this time, Wei Zhongxian failed to pull Zhu Youxiao's heart back, no matter what means he used.

In the evening, Wei Zhongxian gathered his doglegs to discuss countermeasures, and Li Yongzhen suggested: "Father-in-law, I think we might as well arrange a group of guards around the emperor, each with weapons, as long as the court opens, let these guards stare at Yang Lian to death, and when the time comes, Yang Lian is so cowardly, maybe he won't dare to take it." ”

Wei Zhongxian frowned, although he didn't think this was a good way to prevent Yang Lian from joining him, but at least it was a method, if he didn't give it a try, how would he know the result?

"That's okay, Yongzhen, you can do it~"

Li Yongzhen nodded happily and left

Ma's house, in the study

Ma Xiaoquan paced back and forth in the study, while Li Qinghan and Hua Yue sat unhurriedly at the table and drank tea.

"Uh~~ You two are really laid-back?" Ma Xiaoquan stopped walking.

Hua Yue said: "Otherwise, Ma Xiaoquan, you are worried about the safety of Lord Yang (Yang Lian), but no matter how worried you are, Lord Yang probably won't look back." ”

Li Qinghan said: "Yes, by the way, don't you have something called a data device, you can take a look, what will happen next?" ”

Ma Xiaoquan smiled bitterly and shrugged his shoulders: "I don't know what's going on, the data device can't be used, so I don't know what will happen now." ”

Hua Yue exclaimed: "No, you are a modern person, you should know very well, understand the Ming Dynasty, right?" ”

Ma Xiaoquan's face flushed, scratched his head and said: "This used to have a data device, and it was all learned and sold, but now that the data device is broken, let's talk about it again, you think that the history of the Ming Dynasty is just a little bit, these hundreds of years, I am not a saint, even if I have seen it, I may not remember it." ”

Li Qinghan picked up the teacup, put it on Ma Xiaoquan's mouth, poured him a sip of tea, and then said: "You, you are just quibbling, then you won't go back and repair?" ”

Ma Xiaoquan said helplessly: "You think I don't want to, but you also know Qinghan, I will go for a while, and then come back, at least ten days, if something happens during this time, don't I know?" Besides, now that I am in a dangerous stage, if I disappear for more than ten days and a month, Wei Zhongxian will definitely find a factor to sue me to the emperor."

Li Qinghan said: "Don't you have a stand-in, why was you sent to Ningyuan and never came back?" ”

Ma Xiaoquan frowned: "Don't say it, I'm even more depressed when I talk about this, the second brother sent a letter, saying that after the stand-in arrived in Ningyuan, he suddenly came to his senses and clamored to fight, okay, the first time he went out with the army, he was shot to death by the Jurchens with random arrows, if it wasn't for the second brother who covered in time, got the person back and lied and buried it, otherwise, I estimate that the name Ma Xiaoquan is now on the martyr's card." ”

"Why didn't I know about this?" Li Qinghan said.

"Of course you don't know, because I'm the only one who reads the letter, hey, anyway, even if it's looking for a stand-in and training now, it will take three or five months to do anything, and I can't leave now, so the data device is on hold for the time being."

"Well, okay!"

"Oh yes" Ma Xiaoquan thought for a while and said, "I went to see the emperor today, the emperor should go to the court tomorrow, it is estimated that Wei Zhongxian will definitely make some moves, so you can help me think about how to make Brother Yang smoothly present the song to the emperor." ”

Hua Yue squinted her eyes and shook her head, she had never entered the palace, let alone seen the emperor, so she couldn't express her opinion.
