Summary of the previous chapter: Ma Xiaoquan took advantage of Wei Jinzhong's interrogation of prisoners to actively develop his fiefdom, and in the fief, he was going to build a clubhouse

++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ancient times, if you want to build a big house, it takes a long time, and at that time, you had to rely on manpower to transport materials to build walls and tiles.

Although Ma Xiaoquan has a plan to build a club in his mind, if he really starts construction, he will not be able to get down in four or five years.

Ma Xiaoquan is not in a hurry to stay in this era for a few more years, after all, so far, there are no clues to the underground detector he is looking for, but as time goes by, the national spirit of the Ming Dynasty will become lower and lower, and the national strength will decline more and more, although Ma Xiaoquan does not care about the decline of the Ming Dynasty, but the Ma family who is far away in Ningyuan is what he has been worried about.

Ma Xiaoquan once promised Mrs. Ma, and also swore that no matter what, the Ma family, he would protect it well

Seeing Ma Xiaoquan standing motionless, Li Qinghan and the three daughters did not dare to disturb, and after a while, Ma Xiaoquan came back to his senses, and saw the three daughters standing quietly with him, scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "I'm sorry, I'm a little stunned." ”

Li Qinghan shook his head: "Ma Xiaoquan, you must have remembered something."

Bei Mingxue interjected: "Hmph, I must have remembered what month it was, Ma Xiaoquan, tell me, what kind of woman was that month in your heart?"

"Yue'er?" Ma Xiaoquan smiled, shook his head and continued, "Actually, I don't know, I haven't met her much."

"Not much? That Ma Xiaoquan, where is she now? ”

Ma Xiaoquan shook his head with a wry smile: "I don't know, I went back several times, but I didn't meet her any time."

Dongfang Qingxue asked: "Ma Xiaoquan, is this 'Yue'er' you are talking about, your wife in the late Han Dynasty?" ”

"Uh~~" Ma Xiaoquan hesitated, originally he wanted to shake his head, but Hua Yuexin in the past had said a word to himself several times, this sentence was also said by Mingyuexin Ma Xiaoquan thought about it now, and felt very weird

"What's wrong? Isn't it convenient to say? ”

Ma Xiaoquan shook his head and said: "No, the wife of the late Han Dynasty is named Hua Yuexin, that is, the daughter of the Hua family, well, she is also called Yue'er."

Bei Mingxue asked: "Oh, oh, Ma Xiaoquan, the Yue'er you are talking about, there are two people, right?" ”

Ma Xiaoquan nodded.

Li Qinghan's beautiful eyes flashed, and he suddenly said: "Ma Xiaoquan, these two months, do you have anything in common?" Or did they say the same thing? ”

Ma Xiaoquan was stunned and looked at Li Qinghan in surprise, Li Qinghan was suddenly glared at by Ma Xiaoquan, and he was also stunned, and hurriedly touched his face and said, "What's wrong?" Am I wrong? ”

Ma Xiaoquan shook his head: "No, Qinghan, you are right, the two of them did say the same thing"

Li Qinghan asked again: "Ma Xiaoquan, what is it, what are the words?" ”

Ma Xiaoquan smiled and muttered in his heart: Qing Han, Qing Han, in fact, you also said that

At this time, a young man in civilian clothes walked over, walked up to Ma Xiaoquan, and half-knelt down.

"Master!" The man said respectfully.

Ma Xiaoquan nodded: "Is there anything big happening in the past few days?" ”

"Back to the master's words, no~"

"Well, so there's useful news for the thing I asked you to find?"

"Back to the master, not yet~"

"Well, keep looking~"

"Yes!"

After the man finished speaking, he stood up and turned his head to leave.

Bei Mingxue's beautiful eyes glared at Ma Xiaoquan and asked, "Ma Xiaoquan, who was that man just now, calling you master?" ”

Ma Xiaoquan smiled: "Uh, my trained subordinates~"

Li Qinghan said: "Oh, Ma Xiaoquan, when did you do it, we don't know, so fast?" ”

Ma Xiaoquan smiled and changed the topic: "Okay, we should go back~"

"Hmm~" The three girls nodded in unison

In a blink of an eye, it was April 20th, which was the wedding day of Emperor Zhu Youxiao of the Apocalypse.

In addition, the emperor also promulgated some policies such as tax reduction and exemption on the spot to appease the people.

Although Zhu Youxiao also promulgated a similar policy, the Ming Dynasty at this moment is like an old woman in her twilight years, with more than enough heart but not enough strength.

On the third day after the wedding, the emperor issued a holy decree to reward the officials who had worked hard these days, and ordered Ma Xiaoquan and Wei Jinzhong to go to the Yangxin Hall immediately.

In the Heart Cultivation Palace, Zhu Youxiao looked at Ma Xiaoquan and Wei Jinzhong with satisfaction, as if he had something good in his heart.

Zhu Youxiao rarely said much, but today I don't know why, he is very interested, and he talks endlessly.

After talking about it, Ma Xiaoquan and Wei Jinzhong were confused, of course, in view of the emperor's interest, the two simply laughed and became the audience.

At noon, the emperor rewarded the two of them to eat with him, and during the meal, Zhu Youxiao suddenly said: "Jinzhong, you and Ma Aiqing have made great contributions this time, I am very happy, but I don't know what to reward you." ”

Wei Jinzhong hurriedly put down his job, knelt on the ground with a puff, and said: "Your Majesty, the old slave has done his best for the emperor and died, without any return~"

Ma Xiaoquan pursed his lips and whispered "hypocrisy", Wei Jinzhong raised his head and gave Ma Xiaoquan a fierce look.

Zhu Youxiao smashed it and said, "Huh? Having said that, I can't reward you for nothing, well, the money is rewarding you, so let's give you a promotion, and even promote you to three levels. ”

When Wei Jinzhong heard this, he was overjoyed in his heart, although he was now arrested by Dongchang, he was still a positive fifth grade, and if he was promoted to three levels in a row, wouldn't he suddenly become a third grade.

Ma Xiaoquan is also a positive third product, as long as he arrives at the third grade, he will not be far from Ma Xiaoquan, so that he is not afraid of Ma Xiaoquan.

Wei Jinzhong burst into tears, knelt on the ground and was just about to shout long live, long live, but at this moment, Ma Xiaoquan suddenly put down his rice bowl and said: "Your Majesty, even promoted to three levels, this is only possible for generals who have made military achievements, and the first emperor has only been done by Emperor Taizu, Your Majesty, this is probably a bit inappropriate, everyone may have opinions."

As soon as Ma Xiaoquan's words came out, Wei Jinzhong gritted his teeth with hatred, but Ma Xiaoquan was right, he was promoted to three levels in a row, and only a general who had made great achievements could do it, he was a eunuch, and if he wanted such an upgrade, he was afraid that he would be drowned by the group of officials in the court with spit in minutes.

"Hmm~ Ma Aiqing said the same, those guys, one day they know to annoy me, well, Ma Aiqing, tell me, how should I reward Jinzhong?"

Ma Xiaoquan smiled and said: "Your Majesty, Father-in-law Wei has meritorious service in catching thieves, and he can be said to be loyal to the emperor, it is better to do this, the emperor, you give Father-in-law Wei a name, so that the officials in the court will have nothing to say." ”

"Give a name? Well, yes, Ma Aiqing, you say, what kind of name do you give? ”

Ma Xiaoquan glanced at Wei Jinzhong and said, "According to what Weichen saw, he will give Father-in-law Wei the title of 'Loyal Sage'." ”

"'Zhongxian'? Well~~ Wei Jinzhong Wei Zhongxian is good, yes, just according to what Ma Aiqing said~"

Ma Xiaoquan smiled secretly in his heart, and hurriedly said to Wei Jinzhong: "Father-in-law Wei, don't thank you soon, what are you doing in a daze?" ”

Wei Jinzhong hated this, but he had no choice but to kneel on the ground, kowtow and say: "Slave Wei Jinzhong, oh no, Wei Zhongxian, thank you Lord Longen~"
