Chapter 260: Conditions of Trust
The office of the Governor of Wuchang was also full of letters, and Ma Liangcai sat in the study, and there was a person standing opposite him, with his head down, not daring to make a sound.
"That is, you can't kill it?" Ma Liangcai finally spoke.
"My lord, why don't you ask for a sin!" Standing was Ma Liangcai's confidant McGee, who also commanded the guards in the palace.
"How do you plead guilty?" Ma Liangcai raised his eyes, looked at McGee, and smiled bitterly, "That kid from the Xin family did it on purpose, and the Yue Wang Sword has really become a fake now, what can I do?" He also copied twenty of the same in one go, and the emperor would only think I was stupid. Yes, he doesn't care if the sword is real or not, he cares about my stupidity. I was cornered by a little kid. ”
"My lord, our sword was obviously obtained from the ancient tomb, and we have other burial goods, we can prove that it is true."
"Yes, we can prove that the burial goods are real, but we can't prove that the sword is real. As long as they marked the sword, yes, it must have been Xin Jian's kid who marked the sword. As long as the Xin family knows the place where he made the mark, and still does it again on the sword of King Yue, who can prove that the sword was taken out of the tomb? Didn't you kill those grave robbers? Even if they don't die, you say, who will believe what they say? Ma Liangcai sighed again and leaned back on the big chair, "That kid is forcing me, but I can't do anything with him." ”
"Maybe he won't do anything. You also know that he won't live long, and there are other people in the Xin family, he doesn't dare! ”
"You're wrong, it's because he's fearless that he's terrible. If he won six yuan in a row, and was healthy and had a bright future, then perhaps, he would not dare. He knew very well that it was not only me who he had offended, but a group of people. However, he was poisoned, he has not lived for long, and he is just a mirror to him even in the middle six yuan, otherwise, why would he be close to Prince Ren? Let the little prince protect him all the way? His goals have always been clear. ”
McGee was silent, a matter that had passed four years, something that seemed too small to him to be too small, and now it appeared in front of him again. Why, the grandson of a craftsman family is so talented. Whether he can be admitted to the champion or not seems to him nothing, even if it is really the champion, they have not seen it. But, this person, not according to the card rules at all!
"What's next for him?"
"People are dead, and there is no evidence to point to me, so don't do anything now. He should also wait, waiting for us to do more and more wrong. Ma Liangcai pursed his lips and shook his head with a soft smile, "So we underestimated the enemy." ”
"Your Excellency!" McGee wasn't as easy as Ma Liangcai, and he felt that they were now too deep in the mud to extricate themselves. The emperor already knew what the problem was, and sent out three groups of people, two batches of people, and a group of Jianghu people. And it is also the periphery that buys the Wu family, and it will not be found here at all. But does the emperor need evidence? Of course, Ma Daren thought the same way, anyway, there is no evidence, if the emperor wants to keep Huguang, he must protect him first. So, he decided now to wait for the other party to make a mistake.
However, since the first public assassination before, he had not seen the man reach out. But their lives are getting harder and harder. The emperor's attitude towards them can feel indifference and indifference even if they are separated by thousands of mountains and rivers. Do you still think the emperor will protect him?
"So you still want to kill the Xin family?" At this time, Ma Liangcai also hated, at this time, he hated Xin Kun and the high young emperor, but what he hated most was this McGee in front of him.
If he hadn't killed Xin Jian and his wife in the first place, what happened later would not have happened. But five thousand taels, it's worth killing two people, even if you kill someone, you have to clean your hands and feet, why didn't you kill the Xin family kid that time? Just because of this kid, how much more manpower and material resources did he spend, this time there were twenty people, and the whole army was still wiped out, and he had to pay those family members a large amount of silver taels, otherwise, who would give him his life.
If McGee had given Xin Jian money in the first place, would none of these things have happened? He hadn't thought about it at all now that McGee had instructed him to do so.
"Actually, it's no longer possible to kill at this time." McGee looked desperate, he knew that they and Xin Kun had actually reached a state of immortality, and Xin Kun would not let them go. Whether they do it in the future or not, they will not share the sky.
"Yes, the enmity of my parents is not shared!" Ma Liangcai let out a long sigh and smiled at McGee, "It's not early, go back and rest." ”
And McGee is also one of the people who know Ma Liangcai best, he met him from a small town in Guizhou, and accompanied him all the way to the position of governor, at this time he knew that Ma Liangcai hated himself. But what can he do? What makes him even more desperate is that whether it is Xin Kun or Ma Liangcai, he may not survive. McGee silently returned to her small courtyard.
He lives alone in the small courtyard, and his wife is still in her hometown in Guizhou, taking care of her elderly mother. It's not that he doesn't want them, and Ma Liangcai has always asked him to pick them up, but he, who is a master, knows deeply that this can't be done. So I never trusted this Ma Daren?
Sitting in the room, there was a knock on the door, and McGee didn't raise her head, "All out." ”
"Master Mai wants to live." A playful voice behind it.
McGee looked up sharply, and a cold fancy long sword rested on his shoulder, and on the sword, there was a wipe. McGee's face turned pale all of a sudden, and the wiping of his forehead was given by Ma Liangcai's wife, who went back to his hometown to put on his mother on her sixtieth birthday last year, at this time......
"The old lady misses her only son, she is restless day and night, and the lady is in charge of the housework, and the hard work is abnormal, Master Mai is really unfilial and unrighteous!" The person holding that unique sword, who else can there be, is Gu Hong. He has actually been away from Beijing for almost half a year, since Xin Kun was assassinated for the first time, Gu Hong was ordered to come to Huguang, find McGee, and then send someone to his hometown in Guizhou to send McGee's family to Beijing, and he has been waiting silently. He can be the chief of Prince Ren's personal guard, he is not the brainless person in the first place, he silently waits for the last moment of the master and servant. And today, it was a good time, he took out another phoenix hairpin and gently put it on the table, "Mrs. Zun said, their family is waiting for you in the capital, do you want to go?" ”
"Conditions?" McGee's heart sank.
"You're dead, but your son should be able to save him." Gu Hong nodded, he likes to talk to smart people. This will be a good time for everyone to talk.
"If I die now, my son will be fine." McGee was not stupid again, and sneered.
