My mission has actually been completed. Now I just need to take the underground detector and go back and hand it in, and everything will be fine. Following the last time I traveled through time, I stayed in the late Han Dynasty for decades, and this time I physically traveled to this place in the Ming Dynasty.
After a few years, Ma Xiaoquan wanted to take a break.
Shaking his head, Ma Xiaoquan said to himself: "Ma Xiaoquan, you are thinking too much..."
Wei Zhongxian's home.
Tian Ergen stood respectfully in front of Wei Zhongxian and reported to Wei Zhongxian the contents of his conversation with Mrs. Ma.
After hearing this, Wei Zhongxian stood up and said in surprise: "Er Geng, are you telling the truth? Ma Xiaoquan, are you really not the real Ma Xiaoquan?"
"Well, yes, Mr. Wei, but Mrs. Ma doesn't make things clear in many of her words, and it seems she has something to hide... From my subordinates' point of view, it would be better for us to strike first?"
"Well, how can you strike first and force yourself?" Wei Zhongxian asked with a frown.
"Didn't Ma Xiaoquan send Fang Yun to bury a corpse in the suburbs of the city a few days ago? According to my subordinates, that corpse is probably the real Fourth Young Master Ma. Master Wei, why don't we dig it out for him secretly? It's cold now.
Even if the body is buried underground, it will not rot much."
"Well, that's a good idea. Let's take action tonight without further ado. Well, by the way, I asked Li Yongzhen to read the letter that Zhang Wei sent yesterday to me. Here you go, take a look."
Tian Ergen took the letter from Wei Zhongxian respectfully, read it over, and said: "We have got the thing. That's great. Mr. Wei, you are really clever."
"Huh, it's nothing. It's just that Ma Xiaoquan came back today, but he didn't mention his family heirloom. If you have time, try to seduce the old lady of the Ma family again and see if his Ma family's family heirloom is that...
....Hmm, underground detector?”
Tian Ergen accepted the order, raised his hands and said respectfully: "Yes!"
...
At night, Ma Xiaoquan and Fang Yun, brother and sister, had dinner together. During the meal, Ma Xiaoquan asked the younger sister of the Fang family to pour wine. He wanted to have two drinks with Fang Yun.
Fangfang's body has been weak since she became pregnant with the child. Ma Xiaoquan felt a little guilty when he looked at her immature face that had not yet fully grown.
"Fangfang, eat more. You are pregnant, so don't neglect it. Well, give birth to a strong boy for me."
Fangfang's cheeks were slightly red, she hummed slightly and said, "Thank you, sir."
Ma Xiaoquan smiled slightly and clinked a glass with Fang Yun. Fang Yun said: "Fang Yun, you have worked hard these days. Come on, let's go."
Fang Yun quickly drank the wine in the cup and said, "Sir, you can do whatever you want, I'll do it."
Ma Xiaoquan chuckled: "Fang Yun, why did I hear that you seem to be a little close to Wei Zhongxian?"
Fang Yun was startled and said quickly: "Sir, this is all nonsense. I, I am innocent."
Ma Xiaoquan raised his head, glanced at Fang Yun, and said, "Innocent, well, I also believe you are innocent, but there is no smoke without smoke."
Fang Yun was horrified in his heart and knelt down in front of Ma Xiaofeng with a thump: "Your Excellency treats us brothers and sisters with great kindness, and you don't despise Fangfang. Your Excellency, you brought us brothers and sisters together, and Fangfang is your lord's side wife..."
....”
Ma Xiaoquan frowned, this Fang Yun, instead of talking about himself, used his sister as a shield, well, his mind was not right.
"Yes." Ma Xiaoquan nodded and smiled, "I also know that you are innocent. I believe you, but you have to think more sometimes. I believe that this must be Wei Zhongxian's counter-plot against me. The purpose is to alienate me.
We are master and servant, so Fang Yun, I trust you, you will definitely not betray me."
Fang Yun burst into tears of gratitude and kowtowed again: "Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir."
Fangfang was also frightened. She had heard some rumors about her brother's relationship with Wei Zhongxian, but her brother had brought her up since she was a child, so she believed that he was not such a person.
"Sir..." Fangfang blushed, "Brother is definitely innocent. Sir, please believe in my brother's loyalty to you."
Ma Xiaoquan looked at the younger sister of the Fang family and said with a smile: "Didn't I just say that I believe your brother? Okay, Fang Yun, get up, stop kneeling, we haven't finished eating yet."
"yes!"
...
After dinner, Ma Xiaoquan said to Bai~Wan\xiao! in the study.
The door of the room suddenly rang, Ma Xiaoquan said please come in, and saw Fangfang pushing the door open and entering.
"Sir!" Fangfang held a cup of fragrant tea in front of Ma Xiaoquan respectfully.
"Well, thank you for your help!"
"Sir..." Fangfang shouted softly, as if she had something to say.
Ma Xiaoquan raised his head, put down the book in his hand, and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Sir, before...when we were eating..."
"Oh, it's okay. Didn't I say that I believe your brother..."
"No, it's not..." Fangfang shook her head and said, "Sir, I have also heard about my brother's matter. Fangfang has no other requests. If one day, my brother really has something to do with you.
If you have different intentions, I hope you will let my brother live..."
Ma Xiaoquan stood up, patted Fangfang on the shoulder and said: "Fangfang, don't worry, I, Ma Xiaoquan, am not such a careless person. After all, your brother has done so many things for me. I told you, he is my confidant."
, I won’t do anything to him.”
"Sir, thank you so much..." Fangfang's voice was choked with sobs.
Ma Xiaoquan touched Fangfang's head and said, "Okay, go back to sleep. You are pregnant, so take good care of your baby."
"Um!"
.......
The next day, Ma Xiaoquan went to the palace to meet Zhu Youxiao and reported to the emperor about his inspection of the silver mine.
Zhu Youxiao had also received news from the silver mine earlier. He was very happy about the newly discovered silver veins. After praising Ma Xiaoquan, Zhu Youxiao decided to award Ma Xiaoquan.
Wei Zhongxian stood next to the emperor and watched Ma Xiaoquan receive the award. He felt very unhappy, but thinking that he was about to get Ma Xiaoquan's "underground detector", Wei Zhongxian felt a lot more relieved.
After walking out of the Yangxin Hall, Wei Zhongxian chased after him and said in a strange tone: "Ma Xiaoquan, you are lucky. If you don't find the silver mine, the Emperor will definitely not let you off lightly."
Ma Xiaoquan smiled and said: "Wei Zhongxian, I know you tricked me and let Zhang Wei defraud me of my family heirloom. Anyway, I don't care. I have already told Zhang Wei that I will spend money to redeem it."
"You have a good idea." Wei Zhongxian said proudly, "If you give something away, don't even think about getting it back. Ma Xiaoquan, your family also has a lot of wealth. Without one or two family heirlooms, you will not be without a piece of meat."
"Hmph, I knew it, Wei Zhongxian, tell me, what do you want so that Zhang Wei can return my family heirloom to me?"
"I want your life, haha, of course you can't give it. Well, it is said that some small countries around our Ming Dynasty have many rare gold and silver coins. Ma Xiaoquan, if you can get a set, I can consider letting Zhang
I'll give it back to you."
"Is this true?"
"certainly."
"Okay!" Ma Xiaoquan stretched out his hand and slapped Wei Zhongxian three times.
