Summary of the previous chapter: The younger sister of the Fang family learned from Sister Cui that Wei Zhongxian had kidnapped her brother as a hostage...
Ma Xiaoquan shrugged, feeling secretly happy but also a little sad.
Zhang Mazi's tiles can be said to be the best intelligence, but these tiles seem to only listen to Zhang Mazi. This may increase the difficulty of controlling Zhang Mazi. Although Zhang Mazi once stated that he would follow Ma Xiaoquan, he did not completely
After receiving the information about Wa Que, Xiaoquan felt uneasy for a whole day.
"What happened to Sister Cui and Brother Cui?" Ma Xiaoquan asked Zhang Mazi.
Zhang Mazi smiled and said: "Actually, it's nothing. When Sister Cui didn't have that younger brother, she was just a promiscuous woman. Later, for some reason, she got an extra younger brother..."
"Somehow?" Ma Xiaoquan narrowed his eyes, "The little sister of the Fang family told me today that Sister Cui's brother is only seven years old, and Sister Cui is already twenty-eight..."
Zhang Mazi nodded: "Brother Ma, you guessed it right. In fact, Sister Cui's so-called younger brother is her son. Of course, considering that she is a prostitute, so whose son is that boy? I'm afraid it's Sister Cui too.
I won’t be able to tell for a while.”
Ma Xiaoquan nodded and said: "That's true. If that's the case, then, Brother Mu, can you give me some advice? What should I do if I want to win over Sister Cui?"
Zhang Mazi saw blood and said, "It's very simple. Rescue Sister Cui's brother and protect him safely."
Zhang Mazi deliberately emphasized the word "protect" very strongly, and Ma Xiaoquan knew it as soon as he heard it.
"Well, I have the same intention, but I don't know where Wei Zhongxian kept Sister Cui's son."
Zhang Mazi smiled: "Brother Ma, you want to get the whereabouts of her son from me, right?"
Ma Xiaoquan smiled slightly but said nothing.
"Haha..." Zhang Mazi didn't put on airs and said directly, "Wei Zhongxian did get a group of seven or eight-year-old children recently, intending to castrate them privately to replenish his eunuch team. But luckily,
In the past two days, the emperor has always asked Wei Zhongxian to follow him, so Wei Zhongxian can't spare time to do this. At present, these children are all locked up with Li Zongyu."
"Uh? Are you being held in Li Zongyu's place?"
"Well, that's right!" Zhang Mazi nodded and continued, "I think Wei Zhongxian was worried about being discovered, so he asked Li Zongyu to take care of it."
"Okay, I understand!" Ma Xiaoquan stood up and raised his hands to Zhang Mazi, "Thank you so much, Brother Mu!" After that, Ma Xiaoquan was about to leave.
"Wait a minute!" Zhang Mazi called Ma Xiaoquan and said, "Brother Ma, if you have time, I want to discuss it with you again..."
"Yeah, of course"
...
Back at Ma's house, Ma Xiaoquan called Fang Yun and asked him to investigate Li Zongyu's activities in detail.
Fang Yun got the order and got out of the extremely hidden cave door of Ma's house late at night.
Ma Xiaoquan did not take a rest immediately, but sat in the study with his eyes closed, quietly waiting for news from Fang Yun.
Two hours later, Fang Yun came back with a dusty face, but judging from his expression, it seemed that he had discovered valuable information.
Ma Xiaoquan poured a cup of tea for Fang Yun. Fang Yun was so grateful that he ignored the tea and said respectfully: "Sir, Li Zongyu is indeed imprisoning a group of children, and he still lets Li Yao take care of them."
"Li Yao?" Ma Xiaoquan didn't frown, "If Li Yao was in charge, it would be really difficult."
Fang Yun chuckled and said, "Sir, have you forgotten? It seems that Li Zongyu doesn't like Li Yao very much. There seems to be a problem between father and son."
Ma Xiaoquan said humbly: "I've also noticed this. Well, Fang Yun, you must follow up on those children, and Li Yao... Well, take some time and find a way to ask him out."
, I want to meet him."
Fang Yun nodded, but said worriedly: "Sir, there are the eyes and ears of King Xin and Wei Zhongxian outside, so it's not easy for you to go out!"
Ma Xiaoquan snorted coldly: "Of course this won't trouble me, just make an appointment!"
"yes!"
...
The next day, at Li Zongyu's house.
Li Yao stared at the sky boredly. In a room behind him, there were more than a dozen seven or eight-year-old boys imprisoned.
Li Yao approached the window and blew the incense in his hand into the room a few times. The originally noisy room became quiet within ten breaths.
Li Yao exhaled and stubbed out the incense in his hand.
"Why do I have to do this? Why do I have to do this..." Li Yao raised his head and asked himself repeatedly.
Li Yao knew very well what the dozen boys in the room were used for, but he was powerless to save them. He wanted to take revenge, so he couldn't save those children.
At this moment, a servant of the Li family came over and said rudely to Li Yao: "Li Yao, you can go to dinner!"
Li Yao stood up and walked into the servant.
Li Yao was tall and burly, but the servant was short in stature. Li Yao stood in front of him like a big mountain.
"Li Yao, you, what are you going to do? Let me tell you, in this Li family, your status is the lowest! Don't even think about committing the same crime!"
Li Yao's teeth clenched, his Adam's apple moved up and down a few times, he snorted coldly in his nose, and turned away.
As soon as Li Yao left, the servant collapsed to the ground with a thud...
Walking to the kitchen, Li Yao came to the stove as usual, opened the big pot, and dug out the little food left in the pot with his hands.
This kind of day has been repeated countless times, and Li Yao is used to it.
There wasn't much food left in the pot, but Li Yao carefully took the food out and carefully put it into a large bowl with several gaps.
Licking the food juice on his hands, Li Yao exhaled, jumped slightly, and took down a pair of chopsticks from the beam.
Just as he was about to move his chopsticks, a soft male voice suddenly came from behind him.
Li Yao was startled and quickly stuffed the chopsticks into his arms. He turned his head and saw Fang Yun.
Li Yao had met Fang Yun and knew that he was Ma Xiaoquan's man.
Li Yao stood up slowly, carefully put down the broken bowl in his hand, and said, "Are you from Ma Xiaoquan, Fang Yun?"
Fang Yun chuckled, nodded and said: "Exactly, well, nothing else. My master would like to make an appointment with Young Master Li. If Young Master Li is willing to honor me, we can go to this place tonight!" After that, Fang Yundu said
He gave Li Yao a paper ball and then turned around and left.
Li Yao squinted his eyes. Although he was wondering how Ma Xiaoquan's subordinate Fang Yun got into the Li family, he didn't think much about it.
Unrolling the ball of paper, there was an address written on it. Li Yao memorized it several times, then crumbled the ball of paper and swallowed it in his mouth.
