Ma Shiying stayed in Zhao's shop for two days, and will set off tomorrow, although he is the new head of the household department in Nanjing, but he is not going to Nanjing Yingtian, but to Xuzhou Mansion.

Wang Qi is about to arrive in Xuzhou Mansion, and Yang Lian is also leading the cabinet to wait in Xuzhou Mansion, which is where the wind and clouds meet, and it is also a good opportunity for Ma Shiying to find a promotion step and find a backer.

After Wanli Jinshi, in addition to the two capitals and thirteen provinces, Ma Shiying's place of office was in Huguang most of the time, and he walked around Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and did not enter the power core of the Ming Dynasty.

Climbing the backer and looking for the backstage is what Ma Shiying is desperate for now.

But now, Ma Shiying sat on the Huanghuali wooden circle chair, looking at the man in front of him, with a puzzled face: "Your master invited me to come over?" What is the name of your master, who sent you to invite Lord Ben to come over? ”

If it weren't for the sudden momentum of the man in front of him, wearing brocade ribbon satin, and looking at the wealth and richness, Ma Shiying wouldn't even want to say a word.

In the provinces south of the Yangtze River, there are big people with names and surnames, and he Ma Shiying knows it in his heart, and how can he Ma Shiying also be the new head of the household department in Nanjing, and how can he also talk to those cabinet ministers and eunuchs in Nanjing, and now this random little person can also say to himself, 'My family, please come over'?

Who's your adult?

"My family can't say it, and you don't deserve to hear it," Wang Shouxin stood there, looking at Ma Shiying with a calm face.

Well?

Arrogant!

Ma Shiying frowned slightly, but in the next second, a bad feeling suddenly rose in his heart, and the figure of the young man during the day suddenly emerged from his memory.

"Daming Qi Guogong, please come over to the house to talk," Wang Shouxin's lips and teeth opened and closed, not wanting to grind anymore.

Thump!

As soon as Wang Shouxin's words fell, he saw Ma Shiying's body slip and fall from the chair to the ground.

Ignoring the pain in his buttocks, Ma Shiying, who was sitting on the ground, had horror on his face, and looked at the young man in front of him in disbelief.

Qi Guogong is in Zhao's shop?

The young man you met during the day?

"Doesn't Qi Guogong go to Xuzhou Mansion? Why not." Ma Shiying was still a little incredulous, and he stumbled when he spoke.

Everyone knows that Yang Lian led the Nanjing Cabinet Department to set up a battle and a ring in Xuzhou Mansion, waiting for the Duke of Qi to go to the meeting, who would have thought that he only brought three or five people to Zhao's shop.

"Dare to ask. Dare to ask Lord Qi Guogong, what are you doing in person at Zhao's shop? In a panic, Ma Shiying got up from the ground, his tone had become respectful, and his body was slightly probed, as if he was an inch higher than Wang Shouxin, which was disrespectful to the Duke of Qi.

"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask," Wang Shouxin's expression was grim, and he left a sentence: "Later, someone will come to pick you up, get ready." ”

After saying that, Wang Shouxin turned around and left, leaving Ma Shiying alone on the spot, still unable to believe it.

How could Wang Qi appear in Zhao's shop?

Does he want to go past the high-ranking officials of Xuzhou Mansion and go directly to Nanjing Mansion Yin?

Darkness Chencang!

Ma Shiying subconsciously reached out to hold on to the edge of the table to stabilize his body, but his brain was still a mess.

The key point is, why did Qi Guogong look for himself?

Although he Ma Shiying thinks very highly of himself, boasts that he was born as a Jinshi, and is sleek, he can also climb to a high place in the future and worship the prime minister, but now, as the head of the household department in Nanjing, it is absolutely impossible to enter the eyes of the Duke of Qi.

There's only one reason for that!

After thinking about it, Ma Shiying sat back in his chair, revealing a contemplative look: borrow my hand to stir up the political situation in the southeast, so that he can free up his hands and concentrate on dealing with the Donglin faction.

But in this case, why not the opportunity I am waiting for?

Ma Shiying felt that even if he was a pawn of Qi Guogong, with this opportunity, it would be a great opportunity to enter the Beijing court!

Thinking of this, the head of the Nanjing household department subconsciously clenched his fists with both hands: one day, one day!

————

In winter, the weather is very cold, even if it is the boundary of Xuzhou Mansion in the south of the Yangtze River, it is cold at night.

Knock knock. The watchman knocked on the bamboo and gradually went away.

After a while, a sedan chair quietly stopped in a secluded courtyard.

A soft creak sounded, and Ma Shiying's figure flashed.

Not long after, under the leadership of his subordinates, Ma Shiying entered the backyard and saw the young man during the day.

"Xiaguan Ma Shiying, meet Grandpa Guo! The pillar stone of the country, the governor of the army, the ministers have heard it for a long time, and admired it! The provinces in the south of the Yangtze River have all heard the great righteousness of the heavens, and no one praises it, and no one praises it! See me today, this life is enough! As soon as Ma Shiying raised his feet and entered the room, he knelt on the ground with a thud, and knocked three heads towards the place where the figure was sitting, and a series of rainbow farts came out, regardless of whether Wang Qi liked to listen to it or not, he threw it out first.

Wang Qi sat behind the table, looking at Ma Shiying, who was known for his treacherous appearance in the history of the Southern Ming Dynasty, smiling, and looking in a good mood: "Master Ma, sit down."

"The pillar of the country, the governor of the army, this kind of words, in the ears of everyone in Jiangnan, I am afraid that it is a joke," Wang Qi looked at Ma Shiying, who slowly got up.

"My lord's words are wrong, now in the country, Haiqing Heyan, a level, there is a great trend of prosperity, who is the merit?" Ma Shiying put half of his buttocks on the chair, bowed down and said, "Except for Grandpa Guo, no one is out of your right." ”

Wang Qi is not a young man in his twenties, he heard the praise, his heart rippled, he was a man in two lives, and now the Duke of Qi is like a rock, facing Ma Shiying, he smiled, and said: "Master Ma knows, I recruited you today, what is the matter?" ”

"Grandpa Guo has orders, Ma Shiying will not hesitate to be small, liver and brain, and serve the adults!"

With a snap, Ma Shiying hugged his fists, and his expression had become solemn and frank.

Whoever takes a look at it does not boast: a sincere gentleman, a person who can be friends!

Probably today's scholars are so sophisticated and sleek, right?

"Tomorrow, the sedan chair you sit in will rush to Yingtianfu, and in three days, all the gentry, eunuchs, and businessmen who can unite will be mobilized, and I only need one voice to appear in Nanjing City," Wang Qi sat on the chair, his eyes were gloomy: "I, Wang Qi, went to Yingtian to clarify the facts and quell this struggle, not to compete for fame and fortune, nor to be enemies of others." ”

Don't want to be the enemy?

The corners of Ma Shiying's mouth twitched slightly, and she almost laughed: The most slapping Donglin Party in the world is Grandpa Guo, yourself, and now you say that you don't want to be an enemy of Donglin?

Who believes?

"Hear me?" Wang Qi's voice was still faint, but there was an undoubted feeling.

"The lower official heard clearly!" Although Ma Shiying slandered, he still nodded on his face, indicating that he heard clearly.

"This matter is done, I will return to Beijing in half a month, you are the left servant of the Nanjing household department," Wang Qi smiled at the corner of his mouth: "This official never loses his trust." ”

If it was someone else, then Ma Shiying might hesitate, but when the Duke of Qi said this, Ma Shiying would not doubt it at all.

If the emperor wants to be an official of the six ministries in Nanjing, he may also need the three dukes and the cabinet secretary to discuss with the yamen, but Qi Guogong wants to be the left attendant of the six ministries, and now in the cabinet, no one will refute Wang Qi's face.

Emperor?

The emperor will not turn his face with the Duke of Qi in this kind of matter
