Summary of the previous chapter: Lu Zhan and the Ministry of Industry Shangshu really did not arrange a job for Ma Xiaoquan, and specially pressed the construction period, Ma Xiaoquan was of course unwilling, and went to the procurement room, just to arrest the brother-in-law of the Ministry of Industry

+++++++++++++++++++++ Ma Xiaoquan waved his hand and sighed: "Slow down first, don't kill him, I'll keep that person and it's still useful!" ”

"Yes, sir!"

Ma Xiaoquan dragged his chin and leaned back, and said in his heart: Although I took the brother-in-law of the Ministry of Industry and made a confession record, but with their official rank is bigger than mine, I'm afraid it won't last long, um~~ But even if it can't be suppressed for long, I have to make them uncomfortable, hum, my Ma family is just short of money, so I took the opportunity to knock them out

It didn't take long for the news of Ma Xiaoquan's arrest in the procurement room to fall into the ears of the Ministry of Works.

The Ministry of Industry Shangshu gritted his teeth angrily, although he knew that his brother-in-law was not successful, but no matter what, they were all a family, besides, he was able to get to this official position today, and a large part of it relied on the power of his father-in-law's family.

Lu Zhan sat aside, looked at the anxious appearance of Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, and said slowly: "Lord Shangshu, I don't think that Ma Xiaoquan should be stabbed to the emperor in this matter." ”

"Oh? Zhiliang, why do you say this? ”

Lu Zhan said with a smile: "Lord Shangshu, please think about it, it's a felony to do that in the workshop, and it's a common felony, but it all has to go through my criminal department, well, of course, Jinyiwei doesn't need it, but you have to make a record in the criminal department."

"Brother Zhiliang wants to say anything, just say it."

Lu Zhan nodded: "It's very simple, I heard that Ma Xiaoquan just tortured your brother-in-law, but he didn't report it, so Ma Xiaoquan's purpose is probably money!" ”

"Money?"

"Yes, that's right, it's money! Lord Shangshu, please think about it, my Lu family robbed the Ma family of the money from Ning Yuan a few days ago, although the Ma family is not short of money, but there is always a time to spend it, the more the merrier. ”

"Well, Zhiliang means my brother-in-law, we can solve it with money?"

Lu Zhan nodded: "Of course you can, but we can't just forget about this matter, isn't Wei Jinzhong's old eunuch also at odds with Ma Xiaoquan, we can pull him in, hum~~"

Wei Jinzhong's residence.

Dai Zheng respectfully read the letter in his hand to Wei Jinzhong, and after reading it, Dai Zheng said: "Uncle, then Lu Zhan and the Ministry of Industry Shangshu jointly sent a letter, saying that they invited you to deal with Ma Xiaoquan together."

Although Wei Jinzhong is illiterate, he is very old-fashioned, listening to Dai Zheng read the letter, he has understood the meaning, Wei Jinzhong smiled: "They sent me a letter, I'm afraid it was also to save the kid who was captured by Ma Xiaoquan, Dai Zheng, do you think, should I or shouldn't lie in this troubled water?" ”

Dai Zheng said respectfully: "Uncle, risks and opportunities coexist, haven't we always wanted to get involved in the project of the training ground, now is an opportunity, I don't think we can let it go." ”

Wei Jinzhong laughed: "Okay, uncle thinks so too, well, you immediately repair a letter to Lu Zhan and them, saying that I agreed, but I have to see some sincerity, hum~"

Dai Zheng smiled and said gloomily: "My nephew understands what my uncle means, hehe~"

Lu Zhan soon received Wei Jinzhong's reply, and Lu Zhan was very happy to learn that Wei Jinzhong was also willing to deal with Ma Xiaoquan together.

Lu Zhan proudly handed Wei Jinzhong's letter to the Ministry of Industry Shangshu, and after reading it, instead of being happy, he frowned and said: "Zhiliang, will it be risky for us to rashly invite Wei Jinzhong?" ”

Lu Zhan smiled: "Then Wei Jinzhong doesn't know a single big character and has no culture, what is the risk?" Lord Shangshu, I'm afraid you're too worried, aren't you? ”

The Ministry of Industry Shangshu shook his head: "It's not that I'm worried too much, then Wei Jinzhong went from a fire man to his current position, which is not something that ordinary eunuchs can do." ”

Lu Zhan said: "I understand what you mean, Lord Shangshu, but now we have to deal with Ma Xiaoquan, we must win over the alliance, Wei Jinzhong is just a eunuch, he can't afford to do anything." ”

Lu Zhan confidently patted his chest and assured the Ministry of Industry Shangshu, but what he didn't expect was that it was because of his luring of the wolf into the room, which directly led to the reversal of the host and guest in the future

"Ah~~~" Ma Xiaoquan yawned heavily and looked at the intelligence materials in his hand.

As a brocade guard, there is a great advantage, you can look at some confidential information that others can't see at will.

At present, the war in Liaodong is tight, and military salaries cannot keep up with the progress, although the Liaodong garrison headed by the famous general Sun Chengxian has issued a strategy of "raising troops from the land", but this is not a long-term solution.

On the other hand, the Ma family in Ningyuan City has also been greatly threatened, since Ma Xiaoquan left, the Jurchen Department began to attack Ningyuan City frantically, and several times their lives were hanging by a thread, if it weren't for the male soldiers of the Ma family desperately resisting, I'm afraid Ning Yuan would have been lost

"Hmm~~" Ma Xiaoquan put down the intelligence materials, dragged his chin and frowned and said to himself: "It's a matter of time before Liaodong is lost, well, I have to step up my actions, um, where is that annoying underground probe?" ”

At this moment, a report suddenly came from his subordinates outside the door, saying that the Ministry of Industry Shangshu had come to visit.

The Ministry of Industry Shangshu is a second-grade official, and Ma Xiaoquan is only a fourth-grade official, and when the other party comes to visit him, he must have something to ask for.

Ma Xiaoquan knew the intention of the Ministry of Works, and simply put on a big shelf and said to his subordinates: "Just say that I am working and I will not see customers for the time being." ”

"My lord, Lord Shangshu is coming, I'm afraid"

Ma Xiaoquan waved his hand and signaled to do what he wanted

Half an hour later

The door was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and Ma Xiaoquan raised his head and saw the Ministry of Industry Shangshu glaring at him angrily.

"Hehe, Lord Shangshu, hello~" Ma Xiaoquan stood up and arched his hand at Shangshu of the Ministry of Works.

"Ma Xiaoquan, you are very good!" The Ministry of Industry nodded.

Ma Xiaoquan said: "Of course I'm fine, thank you Lord Shangshu for your love!" ”

"Ma Xiaoquan, you!" Gongbu Shangshu exhaled and said calmly, "I came here today, I guess you know what I mean, right?" ”

Ma Xiaoquan smiled: "I don't know!" ”

"Hmph, Ma Xiaoquan, don't pretend, you will give me an explanation today, my brother-in-law, you have to let it go, you have to let it go!"

Ma Xiaoquan smiled and said: "So this is the case, ouch, Lord Shangshu, your brother-in-law has committed a serious crime, it stands to reason, I should report to the emperor, but I thought of friendship and didn't report it, you are good now, come over and ask for someone, this matter, I'm afraid I can't be the master, right?" ”
