Summary of the previous chapter: Wei Jinzhong took credit for the work sent by Ma Xiaoquan, and interrogated the information without any hesitation, but this information... seemed a bit big...
Wei Jinzhong believed it as soon as he heard it.
"Such a treasonous and unethical thing, hey Liu Bao, do you have anything else to say?" Wei Jinzhong said with wide eyes.
Liu Bao had no intention of arguing this time, but this guy raised his head and snorted coldly, saying: "The world seems to be peaceful, but it has been at a loss for a long time. The court is incompetent and even supports you eunuchs. I
The Ming Dynasty will soon fall."
"You!" Wei Jinzhong's face turned red. He was very angry at being called a eunuch.
Ma Xiaoquan clapped his hands and said to Wei Jinzhong: "Okay, Old Eunuch Wei, you go about your business, I'm leaving."
Wei Jinzhong hesitated for a moment and suddenly said: "Wait a minute!"
Ma Xiaoquan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, turned his head and asked, "What's the matter, Eunuch Wei?"
Wei Jinzhong frowned slightly and said with an apologetic smile: "Thanks to Deacon Ma this time, haha... I have a request. I wonder if Mr. Deacon can agree to it?"
Wei Jinzhong deliberately referred to himself as "old man". It seems that he cared about the word "eunuch" very much.
Ma Xiaoquan took out his ears and pretended to be a dandy: "Listen and see first, then tell me."
Wei Jinzhong chuckled and asked: "Master Deacon, since you have helped me such a big favor, why not help me again and see how Liu Bao should be dealt with?"
Ma Xiaoquan laughed, looked at Wei Jinzhong with disdain, and asked: "Wei Jinzhong, are you really stupid or are you pretending to be stupid? You still ask me about such an obvious thing? Oh, if you say anything to me, just in case someone comes to seek revenge.
What, are you still thinking of pushing it to me?"
Wei Jinzhong's face darkened. Ma Xiaoquan was right, he did think so.
Ma Xiaoquan reached out and patted Wei Jinzhong on the shoulder: "Old Eunuch Wei, there are some things you can think about, and there are some things you'd better not think about. Okay, I don't care about this. If you're not satisfied, just report it to the emperor."
I'll go."
"You" Wei Jinzhong watched Ma Xiaoquan leave, too angry to say a word.
After a while, Wei Jinzhong finally regained his composure.
"Put Liu Baoxian on death row, and from now on, everyone entering and leaving Beijing will be thoroughly searched by me, including women, children and the elderly. If another spy sneaks in, none of you will be able to live well!"
"
Wei Jinzhong gave the order, and a strange response sounded.
...
The next day, Dongchang factory guards held down Liu Bao and others for interrogation.
Liu Bao is a weakling. Before he was sentenced to execution, he truthfully explained all their plans.
Wei Jinzhong was also present at the trial. After hearing Liu Bao's confession, Wei Jinzhong and everyone in the Sanfa Division were all shocked.
Wei Jinzhong stepped forward, looked at Liu Bao, then tamped Wang Da's hair, who was kneeling next to Liu Bao, and asked: "Every gate in Beijing is tightly guarded. Where did you come in from?"
Wang Da truthfully told the truth. After hearing this, Wei Jinzhong was so angry that he threw Wang Da to the ground and ordered the factory guards to step up inspections.
While Wei Jinzhong was interrogating Liu Bao and others, Ma Xiaoquan was not idle either.
Although he was not directly responsible for guarding the capital, Wei Jinzhong brought him in during the emperor's wedding. Even the guards who were pretending had to put on an appearance.
Ma Xiaoquan led several Jinyi guards around the capital. Among these Jinyi guards, three of them were obviously thinner than the others. Of course, judging from their appearance, these three people all looked like men.
Ma Xiaoquan was walking in front, and the three men were following behind him. Behind the three men, the other three Jinyi guards gathered together and discussed quietly.
One said: "Hey, why does the boss seem to be in such a good mood today? He even brought out the three best girls next to him."
Another said: "How do I know, but to be honest, these three little girls are simply top-notch. If I can hold them down..."
The third one listened to the conversation between the two and cursed in a low voice: "Fuck, are you both going to die? Does the woman who dares to talk about the boss want to be a factory guard in the East Factory?"
Upon hearing this, the two of them hurriedly covered their crotches and laughed dryly.
Ma Xiaoquan turned around, looked at the three Jinyi guards walking at the end, laughing and joking, frowned, and shouted: "Hurry up, what are you doing here?"
The three of them looked at each other and quickly followed.
Bei Mingxue came close to Ma Xiaoquan and whispered coquettishly: "Ma Xiaoquan, the weather is very good today, why don't we go play?"
Ma Xiaoquan glanced at Bei Mingxue, who was disguised as a man, and said: "Playing? Where are you going to play? How come you know how to play all day long?"
"Humph" Bei Mingxue rolled his eyes at Ma Xiaoquan.
Ma Xiaoquan felt a chill in his heart. In front of him, Bei Mingxue was wearing a human skin mask with a man's face. This man's face looked a bit greedy, especially the big black mole on his chin. It was...
...Coupled with the glance Bei Mingxue gave Ma Xiaoquan just now, it really gave Ma Xiaoquan goosebumps all over.
Li Qinghan stepped forward and suggested: "Ma Xiaoquan, I think we should go to the gathering place to have a look. Wei Jinzhong has been busy guarding the capital in recent days, and we can develop ourselves while he is busy."
Ma Xiaoquan nodded: "What Qinghan said is true, so let's go now."
.......
The gathering place was bustling with people, and most of the merchants traveling to and from Beijing gathered here.
There are restaurants and tea shops here, as well as large and small private houses. In addition, Zhang Jiude, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, recently helped renovate the place. Its popularity is comparable to anything in Beijing.
Ma Xiaoquan walked into the gathering place, and one of his men quickly came over.
"Boss!"
Ma Xiaoquan nodded, pulled the men closer, and ordered: "Take the three guards behind me to have a drink, and if necessary, find some girls. Well, I have something to do here, so I can't take them with me!"
"Understood!" the subordinate ordered, and Li rushed over enthusiastically.
After a few people left, Ma Xiaoquan immediately walked into a private house.
This private house was a secret place set up by Ma Xiaoquan in the gathering place. Although the gathering place was a fiefdom given to him by the emperor, it was still necessary to take precautions before they happened.
Ma Xiaoquan changed his clothes urgently and walked out of the house again.
Outside the private house, Li Qinghan's three daughters also changed their clothes at some point. This time, all three women's faces changed into women's, but their appearance was very ordinary.
Dongfang Qingxue covered her mouth and chuckled: "Ma Xiaoquan, are we faster than you?"
Ma Xiaoquan scratched his head: "Hey, this human skin mask is simply amazing. Well, okay, let's not talk about it for now. Come to the same place with me."
The three girls nodded and followed Ma Xiaoquan to a secluded place.
Although the gathering place was bustling with people, there were not people everywhere. The place where Ma Xiaoquan and others came now was a deserted place.
"I want to build a club here. Well, the main purpose is to collect all kinds of intelligence. To put it simply, it is to establish an intelligence collection office that is no less powerful than Jin Yiwei!" Ma Xiaoquan muttered, pointing to the deserted land.
"Intelligence collection office?" Bei Mingxue didn't understand what Ma Xiaoquan meant and asked, "Ma Xiaoquan, why are you doing this? Aren't Jin Yiwei already very good at collecting intelligence?"
Ma Xiaoquan smiled and said: "Jin Yiwei is not my team after all. In many situations, I have no control over it. But this place is under my full control and control, Ma Xiaoquan."
Dongfang Qingxue nodded and said: "Ma Xiaoquan, why do I think you have other ideas besides making money?"
Ma Xiaoquan chuckled and said: "There must be some, but it's just not the right time, so I'll give it a try for the time being."
