"Please inform me that Ma Ku from Ruiguo Duke's Mansion brought his dog Ma Yu to meet the lord." Ma Ku said, and put some loose silver into the hands of the gatekeeper at the gate of Prince Zhuang's mansion.

But the family member hastily stretched out his hand and pushed: "Master Ma, my prince is not in the mansion."

The appearance of the other party's righteous words made Ma Ku's heart skip a beat, and secretly sighed that it was not good.

He is not afraid that the other party will not do things after receiving the money, but he is afraid that the other party will not accept the money. This shows that he is ventilating up and down and deliberately stuck him.

"Then I don't know where the prince has gone, and when will he come back?" Ma Ku asked again, but he had lost hope in his heart.

"I don't know. I'm just a guard at the door. How dare I go to investigate the whereabouts of the prince." What the guard said was well-founded, and Ma Ku didn't dare to embarrass the other party.

"Brother, please make it easier for me. I'll wait here for the lord, I don't know." Ma Ku naturally didn't want to give up. It might not have been a problem before, but seeing the servant's attitude, it was obvious that he knew that this matter was a bit serious.

"No, Mr. Ma, please go back and come back some other day. If you wait here, it will not be good for my lord if it gets out." The servant naturally refused.

Ma Yu, who was on the side, listened to the conversation between the two, especially the servant's prevarication-like tone, which made him very angry.

"You dog slave, my father is a third-rank Fenwei general in the court, and my Ma family is a descendant of the Duke of Ruiguo. How can you be like this?"

Before Ma Yu could finish his sentence, Ma Ku slapped him on the face. He was really spoiled by the big girl and daughter-in-law in the back house, so he dared to say such nonsense.

"Please, Mr. Ma, your son is so contemptuous of my Prince Zhuang's Mansion, so don't stay here anymore." The servant also had a bad face. Your Ruiguo Mansion is honorable, but his Prince Zhuang's Mansion is not. Emperor?

Ma Ku's face was red and white, and he also felt a little uncomfortable. How dare a mere servant dare to shake his face?

But he is an adult and knows the pros and cons, so he just cupped his hands and said, "In that case, I'll come to see Prince Zhuang some other day."

After saying that, he took Ma Yu, who was stunned by his slap, into the sedan chair and left.

In the concierge, the steward of the Wangfu came out: "You have done a good job, a dilapidated noble family dares to provoke our prince, you really don't know how to live or die."

He saw this matter from the beginning to the end, and what the gatekeeper did was naturally his order. His lord wanted to clean up the Ruiguo mansion, how could he say that he was allowed to enter the mansion to reconcile?

After the steward finished speaking, he turned around and went back to the mansion to report to Wang Li.

"Heh, this old boy's thinking is really beautiful. If it wasn't for the Duke of Rui, who was honored by the emperor to retire with the country, this kind of temper would have been swallowed by others, even the bones would not be left." Wang Li sneered With a sound.

He originally thought that Ma Yu was just a second-generation child who liked Fengyue, and maybe he dared to hate Chen Xiyi because he couldn't save face in front of the little lady before, but he never thought that he was really a man of temperament.

If this kind of temperament fell on a group of rangers walking around the streets, he might attract them, but it would not be a good thing if it fell on a nobleman.

Now there is only one third-rank Fenwei general with a false title left in the Duke of Ruiguo's mansion. When Ma Ku dies and is passed on to Ma Yu, there may only be a fourth-rank false title left.

Of course, the premise is that this false title can be successfully hereditary.

This Ma Yu didn't understand at all that the Ma family's ability to make friends with all parties was not because of the third-rank generals, but because of the word honor.

"My lord, this is the information you have collected. The Ma family has long been unable to make ends meet. It has been confirmed that the mistress of the family will lend money." The steward handed over a secret report.

After a brief browsing, Wang Li realized that lending money is only a small matter, and the information behind it is a major matter. Then he said: "I never thought that Chen Hua, the magistrate of Nanxuan, was actually run by this horse, but this Chen Hua didn't seem to be What a good man, he can actually let this Ma Ku help him to play the official role."

"However, the magistrate of this place is also able to operate. At this point, he also has intentions, but this seems to be old."

Looking at the corresponding secret report, Wang Li found that although Chen Hua started his business by taking advantage of Ma Ku, the Duke of Ruiguo, his nature was serious, sophisticated and tactful.

Another meaning is to know the current situation and know how to advance and retreat.

Wang Li continued to flip through the secret report in his hand, and saw the intersections between these families and the Ruiguo Mansion, for example, sending his own daughter to the Ruiguo Mansion to be raised by the Ma family's mistress, which is what they saw before. Everyone is a lady.

These women who have not left the court hang out with Ma Yu all day long, and they look like childhood sweethearts.

But as the number increases, the meaning changes.

"Let's prepare the sedan chair. I want to enter the palace to face the saint." Wang Li said after reading the secret report, putting it in his sleeve.

Well, he can plan this matter, but if it is really going to be implemented, it can only be done with the consent of Emperor Li.

After all, this is a noble family, even if it is in decline, it is not easy for him to touch the other party.

The noble family is not limited to the Duke of Ruiguo, it is an interest group, if you want to touch the Duke of Ruiguo, you have to cut off its interests first.

However, Wang Li didn't intend to move too hard. At most, it would hurt the government of Ruiguo. If he is sensible, he will stop here. How hard, when did you bow your head.

"Yes, my lord." The steward naturally knew what Wang Li was going to do.

As a firm member of the imperial faction, Wang Li must communicate with the Emperor Li for such matters against the Duke of Ruiguo. It depends on the specific attitude of the Emperor Li.

The steward went out to make arrangements, but Wang Li was still thinking alone, how to tell Emperor Li next.

This matter can be said to be his private matter, and the benefits must be his, but Emperor Li must have an account, otherwise, it will be very difficult to handle.

It is inevitable that companionship is like companionship with a tiger, and he must give Emperor Li a share of the benefits.

But the problem is, his current advantage is only a magic sword.

Therefore, he can only find a way to transfer rights or other interests by himself.

No one knew about the magic sword, so Wang Li quickly found an excuse, which was to use Chen Xiyi as a tiger skin.

Therefore, this matter needs to be told truthfully, as long as the matter of the middle magic sword is simply hidden, things will go much smoother.

Wang Li guessed that Emperor Li would definitely not mind selling this Ruiguo mansion in exchange for the goodwill of Fuyao Shangxian. After all, this Ruiguo mansion is already in ruins and has little value. It happens to be a soft persimmon, and it can be warned The other honorable families can hardly be regarded as killing multiple birds with one stone.
