Chapter 308: Ma Yuanzhen
The mansion was transformed into a horse house.
What has been changed is the master, and what cannot be changed is the things in the hand.
The sixtieth year has not yet arrived, and for Ma Yuanzhen, it is the time when the limelight is in full swing.
He no longer disdained the ethereal position of Wang Guichang's inner eunuch, because what he held in his hand was the Tang Forbidden Army.
Divine Army.
As a lieutenant of Zuo Shence's army, Ma Yuanzhen has the merit of canonization, and even Li Chen, the son of heaven, respects him.
But on the other hand, Ma Yuanzhen regretted this decision a little in his heart, originally thought that after the stupid "King of Light" ascended the throne, he would be able to control the court situation single-handedly, but when Li Chen ascended the throne, Ma Yuanzhen found out.
It turns out that the King of Light is not stupid, not only is he not stupid, but the kind of resoluteness, calm and sophistication he exposes makes him unpredictable.
Li Chen's edge was too sharp, so Ma Yuanzhen chose to forbear for the time being, but at the same time, he was also waiting for an opportunity.
Right now, that opportunity seems to be coming.
Because Qiu Shiliang is dying.
Qiu Shiliang was another eunuch, a lieutenant in the Right Shence Army.
As long as Qiu Shiliang dies, then these two divine armies can all be included in his hands, Ma Yuanzhen believes that no one will fight with him.
No one dared to fight with themselves.
But before that, Ma Yuanzhen must be cautious.
At this moment, inside the horse house, an old man in a purple robe was drinking tea with his eyes closed in the pavilion.
The pavilion is small, but it is very chic, so unique that even the four pillars are carved with exquisite moire, so unique that each tile is dazzling and shining.
The old man was a little thin, with a fair face and no beard, but the crane hair was not a child's face, and even the wrinkles on his face were less and lighter than those of his peers.
It was Ma Yuanzhen.
The tea soup on the table was already cold, and Ma Yuanzhen seemed to have fallen asleep leaning on it, but the treasure belt around his waist was particularly bright in the sun.
The treasure belt is made of rhinoceros skin, and the buckle and hoop are all polished with white jade, and then inlaid with gold wire, but there is nothing on the hoop, and it always looks a little empty.
"Lang Jun ......"
With a light call, Ma Yuanzhen slowly opened his eyes: "What's the matter?" ”
"Ma Siqing is here!"
"Oh!" Ma Yuanzhen sat up slightly and said, "Let him come here!" ”
Leaning less, a middle-aged man walked slowly to the pavilion, looking slightly anxious.
It is Dali Siqing, Ma Zhi.
"It's a mess outside, and my brother still has the heart to drink tea here?" There was a slight resentment in Ma Zhi's tone.
Ma Yuanzhen smiled and said, "This year's new tea and new salt, do you want to taste it?" ”
Ma Zhi was not polite, sat directly in front of Ma Yuanzhen, and said, "Li Zhen was locked up in the Eastern Capital Prison by Chen Ying, do you know?" ”
Ma Yuanzhen nodded and said, "Well, I know!" ”
"On the second day, Princess Yanqing sent someone to the Eastern Capital Prison, and she didn't go to see Chen Ying at all!" Ma Zhi said again.
"Hehe, I know!" Ma Yuanzhen smiled.
"Just two days ago, Chengde Wang Yuankui, Wei Bo, He Hongjing and Zhang Zhifang, the three of them gathered in the Eastern Capital Prison, do you know?" Ma Zhi said anxiously.
"Yes!" Ma Yuanzhen still smiled.
"Today, Your Majesty summoned Zhu Wu Hesu and asked Your Majesty to see Li Zhen, saying that Pei Luo owes him a favor!" Ma Zhi's tone became more agitated.
"So what?" Ma Yuanzhen asked with a little surprise.
"How?! Can't you see that this Li Zhen is deeply favored, and it will be a matter of time before he is released? This time, Ma Zhi was a little surprised.
"Hahaha, the person was caught by Chen Ying, if you want him to release him, go and talk to him, for his brother in Chang'an, the whip is beyond his reach!" Ma Yuanzhen laughed.
"Brother......" Ma Zhi said, looked around, and then lowered his voice and said to Ma Yuanzhen: "Everyone in the court knows that Chen Yingnai was pulled up by his brother, and now that he is in trouble, if Your Majesty really blames him, I am afraid that it will affect my brother!" ”
Ma Yuanzhen thought for a while and asked, "What should I do about the meaning of dependence?" ”
Ma Zhi immediately said: "Let Chen Ying release the person immediately, don't wait for Your Majesty to speak!" ”
Ma Yuanzhen couldn't help laughing loudly when he heard this, and said: "Cunzhi, if you think so, you are very wrong, now anyone can speak, but my brother can't say it, not only can't I say it, but I also have to stay in the house honestly!" ”
"Why?" Ma Zhi was shocked.
"Cun Zhifang also said that now everyone in the DPRK and China knows that Chen Ying was promoted by me, but no one dares to say that I formed a party for personal gain, do you know why?"
Ma Zhi thought for a while and said, "Brother didn't let Chen Ying do anything, even the filial piety sent by Chen Ying was blocked by you, so why not form a party for personal gain!" ”
"Yes, in that case, if I let Chen Ying release people at this time, how do I think others will look at me?" Ma Yuanzhen said with a smile.
Ma Zhi couldn't help but suddenly realize when he heard this, nodded thoughtfully, and said, "So the more at this time, the more my brother can't show it to Chen Ying!" ”
"Hehe, if I don't speak about this matter, Your Majesty won't blame me, but if I speak, I will not escape the charge of colluding with the court officials, so it's better to hide in the house and drink tea for my brother!" Ma Yuanzhen smiled, and then personally poured a bowl of tea for Ma Yuanzhen.
"Huh?"
Ma Zhi glanced at the treasure belt around Ma Yuanzhen's waist, and couldn't help but exclaim, "This treasure belt is really beautiful!" ”
When Ma Yuanzhen heard this, he immediately untied the treasure belt, and then handed it to Ma Zhi, and said with a smile: "This belt is called the Tongtian Rhino Belt, if you like it, I will give it to you!" ”
Ma Zhi was overjoyed when he heard this, and said, "Then the little brother is welcome!" ”
After saying that, Ma Zhi directly untied his belt and tied it to the rhino belt.
Seeing this, Ma Yuanzhen smiled and said, "It's better to stay and be more heroic!" ”
At this time, what Ma Zhi didn't notice was that after Ma Yuanzhen's smile, a touch of cunning quietly flashed.
"Has Your Majesty mentioned Qiu Shiliang recently?" Ma Yuanzhen then asked.
"A few days ago, I heard that some rare and famous medicines were given, and I asked the people from the Taiyi Department to see them, and the people from the Taiyi Department were helpless, I am afraid that they will die soon!" Ma Zhi carefully rubbed the rhino belt with his hand, and replied without raising his head.
"Oh......" Ma Yuanzhen nodded, and asked again: "Then Your Majesty also said that who is going to sit in the position of lieutenant of the Right Shence Army?" ”
Ma Zhi looked up at Ma Yuanzhen when he heard this, and said: "I haven't heard of it, according to the younger brother, this son is the elder brother, looking at the court, except for the elder brother, who is still qualified to lead the Shence army?" ”
Ma Yuanzhen smiled when he heard this, and said: "Your Majesty is no longer the King of Light in the Sixteenth House, I can feel it, Your Majesty's hand wants to grab something!" ”
"Catch what?" Ma Zhi asked.
"Hehe, for example...... Divine Army! Ma Yuanzhen said with a smile.
"The Divine Army?" Ma Zhi thought for a while and said, "Even if Your Majesty has this thought, at least now he doesn't dare to act rashly!" ”
"Yes! Don't dare now, what about later? Therefore, for the brother, he must grasp all the Shence army in his hands, so that the brother's heart can be a little more stable! ”
