- Prime Minister's Office

Looking at the sergeants who were cleaning up the rubble, Ma Qiang sat on his chair and dozed off.

"Ming Gong, Mr. Duan is here."

"Oh, let him come." Ma Qiang wiped the unknown object from the corner of his eye, yawned and watched Jia Xu come over.

"Mr. Duan, did the assassin speak?"

Jia Xu shook his head and said, "This is a dead man, and he doesn't care about pain, so he uses a punishment from our Liangzhou, and I think it will be a result soon." ”

"From Liangzhou?"

"It's better not to inquire about the prime minister."

Ma Qiang had the top ten tortures of beeping in his mind, forget it, for the sake of lunch, he still didn't ask.

"Now that everyone in Pingyuan County should have known the decree of joy and mourning, I thought that many people would come to make trouble, but it turned out that only so many people came, which really disappointed me."

Ma Qiang said, listening to the faint shouts outside the Prime Minister's Mansion.

It was the voice of the people petitioning.

The shouts are all politically correct words such as what etiquette cannot be abolished.

But there were not many people who came, only a few dozen people, but there were quite a few onlookers, hundreds of people.

Of course, it is not known whether the reason for such a small number of people is because Ma Qiang asked to protest against the real-name system.

"The prime minister used thunderous means to ban the county's Chengyang Jingwang Temple, those people behind the scenes have long been frightened, and now they are hated and afraid, asking them to pay, maybe they can, but if they want to take the lead, they will never do it." Jia Xu is very clear about the psychology of these people.

"So what are they just waiting for? Not afraid of being eaten by me bite by bite? ”

This is a struggle, and Ma Qiang does not believe that the other party will surrender.

"Prime Minister, I think they should be hiring someone right now."

"Who?"

"Lord of the Plains!"

"The Plains King?" Ma Qiang couldn't help but wonder: "The King of the Plains dares to get involved in politics? ”

He doesn't want to die?

"The person in charge of the Plains Mansion is not the King of the Plains." Jia Xu is not fooling around these days.

"That's?"

"Filial piety to the Bo Garden horse nobleman!"

"Who is this?"

"The father of the first emperor, the Plains King Yizheng Chamber, Fufeng Ma's family!"

Emperor Huan's mother??

Isn't this the Empress Dowager?

How can it be in the Plains Country?

Jia Xu saw Ma Qiang's puzzled face, and explained, "The first emperor's mother is Empress Xiaochong, who passed away thirty years ago, Ma Guiren is the mother of Wang Shuo of the Plains, she is old and doesn't like to move around, and she lives in seclusion in the backyard of the palace on weekdays, so few people in the world know about it, but her words, not to mention the King of the Plains, even His Majesty today, will not easily refute." ”

Ma Qiang understood who this Ma nobleman was, and then calculated in his heart, Liu Shuo is almost fifty now, so this Ma nobleman must not be about seventy?

This old lady lives a long life!

Ma Qiang even understood why Duan Wen asked him to be careful of this Ma family, in this era, eight out of ten old ladies of this age would be convinced of the way of gods and ghosts.

"Does Mr. Duan have a plan for me?"

Duan Wen said with a smile: "I heard the Minister of State say that the truth becomes clearer the more you argue, and I think the same is true of this law." ”

Ma Qiang narrowed his eyes and nodded understandingly.

- Plains Palace

A group of Taoist priests surrounded Liu Shuo and cried about the bitter water of the forbidden temple of Chengyang Wang.

"Your Highness, today this Ma Qiang can seal the incense of the King of Chengyang, can't he seal other people's tomorrow? The king of Chengyang is our great Han clansman! Your Highness can't just leave it alone! ”

"Yes, Your Highness, this horse is going against the grain, and he also kills innocents indiscriminately, killing good and risking merit! I don't know how many of the people hanging on the head of the city are innocent people, but these are all His Highness's people! ”

"And this Ma Qiang actually forbade the people to sacrifice, such a rude thing, His Royal Highness is a person of pure filial piety, how can he sit idly by!"

Liu Shuo looked at this group of immortal elders helplessly, he thought that so many immortal elders were looking for him to have some immortal magic method, or some elixir that could make people fierce and fierce, who knew that it was this kind of thing.

"Immortal elders, you have to go to the Minister of State for these things, I will go to Boling in the next day, so be it!"

Boling is Liu Yi's burial place, according to the requirements of Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty, although Liu Shuo is the king of the plains, but he has to guard the tomb in Boling for most of the year, so he especially cherishes the days in the plains.

When guarding the tomb, you can't drink and play like this every day.

Liu Shuo waved his sleeves and hurried away.

He is not stupid, as long as he mixes in such a thing, no matter what the result is, he will be unlucky, why his third brother didn't have it, he still remembers.

When these Taoist priests saw Liu Shuo running away, they didn't panic, they just sat in the hall and cried loudly.

The cry drifted out with the wind until it reached a clean hut.

A plainly dressed old woman was kneeling on a futon while knocking on a wooden fish and reciting scriptures.

Hearing the cry, the old lady couldn't help but stop the wooden fish in her hand.

"Someone, where is the crying here?"

A maid immediately stepped in from outside the house and said, "Back to the nobles, a group of Taoist priests came to cry in the hall today, and I heard that it was because the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Malaysia sealed the temple of King Jingwang in Chengyang." ”

"The ancestral temple of King Chengyang? Why a ban? ”

"Last night, there were Taishan thieves who attacked the Prime Minister's Mansion, and after being interrogated, they said that they were Chang Zhenren's masterminds, so it was so."

The old woman got up and shouted, "Since it is Chang Zhenren, what does it have to do with the King of Chengyang?" In the three hundred years of the Han Dynasty, no one has dared to seal the Yangjing King Temple! If this matter reaches Luoyang, won't it be a problem for Wu'er?

Let's go, meet those immortals! Tell me in detail what happened in the past two days! ”

"No!"

In the main hall, the group of Taoist priests were still crying, crying, when they heard a sound outside, and then someone shouted, "Ma Guiren has arrived!" ”

The group of Taoist priests hurriedly wiped their tears, and then bowed, "The grass people meet the nobles!" ”

Without squinting, Ma Guiren walked straight to the main seat of the main hall and sat down, with a blank face, and asked, "Are you immortal elders dissatisfied with my Plains Palace?" Why come to me and weep! ”

These Taoist priests glanced at each other, and one of them came out and said, "The nobles have taken care of us in the past, how can we be dissatisfied with the plain palace, it is really the prime minister of the country of Ma to ban the temple and sacrifice, and also interfere with the wedding and funeral of the people without authorization, so that the people complain, the people are in turmoil, and even the gods and heroes are disturbed, we have come to find the king of the plains, and I hope that the king of the plains can come forward to persuade the prime minister." ”

"The old lady heard that the remnants of the moth thief are hidden in the Chengyang Jingwang Temple, but is there such a thing?"

"That's all done by Chang Zhenren, and it has nothing to do with us!"

"Really, this social festival is about to start, and the ban on this matter will not delay the big event!"

When Ma Guiren heard the social sacrifice, he bowed his head and said, "This is a big deal, wait and go back and wait for the news, I will go to the minister of state and say it, and I will not delay the major event of the social sacrifice!" ”

Seeing that Ma Guiren was willing to come forward, these Taoist priests thanked him and left.
