Chapter 641

Playing a game of cat and mouse here, you are chasing each other, and you are having a great time.

In Feng'an, the capital city dozens of miles away, Prime Minister Xiao was indeed leading people to play the game of digging holes, and the game was in full swing.

Ma Chenxian's general's residence.

Prime Minister Xiao took the Imperial Forest Army who had followed him under the emperor's order, and stood guard outside Ma Chenxian's general's residence.

Because Ma Chenxian's mansion is full of a group of veterans who have retired from the battlefield or are fighting on the battlefield, they all have a murderous look and bloody smell on their bodies, so blocking Prime Minister Xiao is actually with the Imperial Forest Army.

You can't get in, I can't get out, the two sides are in such a stalemate, neither will let the other.

Seeing that the two sides were about to fight, the reinforcements sent by His Majesty the Emperor finally arrived.

It's not so much a rescue, it's better to say it's a unilateral help to Prime Minister Xiao.

Ma Chenxian, as the general protecting the country, is also the god of war of the Ju dynasty, and his reputation among the people has long surpassed that of the emperor who lives in the palace.

It is said that the master is overwhelmed by merit, and things will be reversed when they are extreme.

It's okay if you meet a virtuous monarch, but if you meet a narrow-minded monarch, the end can only be bleak.

The courtiers who have made great contributions to the Lord face only two choices.

One is to rise up by oneself, and the princes and generals would rather be kind.

The other is to accept your fate obediently, and wait for the emperor to be in a bad mood, or see if you are not pleasing to the eye, and kill you.

Ma Chenxian is obviously the second type.

But even if he already has Xiao Jiujiu in his heart and has made sufficient preparations, now is not his best time.

So Ma Chenxian kept holding back, waiting for a good opportunity.

Your Majesty the Emperor is most afraid of this opportunity.

So it happened that Prime Minister Xiao was so reckless that he proposed to take the Imperial Army to search Ma Chenxian's mansion because he suspected that Ma Chenxian's disappearance was related to his son's disappearance.

Facing Prime Minister Xiao's proposal, the emperor almost dozed off, and he was very happy when he gave him a pillow.

After several hypocritical rejections, he happily lent him out.

Anyway, if something is found in the search at that time, then Ma Chenxian's serious problem can be solved quickly.

If nothing is found by then, then the responsibility will be shifted to the middle-aged Prime Minister Xiao who lost his son.

Anyway, this old fox, Prime Minister Xiao, has no son, and it's meaningless to live in the future. If you can save him, then save him and prove your kindness.

If it was Ma Chenxian who made a big fuss, then prime minister Xiao would be dealt with directly.

Anyway, Prime Minister Xiao and Ma Chenxian, the loss of either of them is a good thing for him, and the deal is indeed not a loss.

As for the emperor's mentality and the way of weighing, he is just cultivating a chess piece to be a puppet, and it will save trouble if he is obedient.

It's better than losing the emperor's position in a daze!

The father-in-law sent by the emperor brought the emperor's imperial decree, which agreed with Prime Minister Xiao to search Ma Chenxian's general's mansion.

Even if the people in the General's Mansion respected Ma Chenxian as their master, they would not openly disobey the emperor's order for the sake of their wives, children and family.

After some hesitation and weighing, Prime Minister Xiao agreed to take the imperial army to search Ma Chenxian's general's mansion.

It's just that they have to accompany them all the way, lest Prime Minister Xiao do anything to frame their master.

He didn't refuse the requests of Ma Chenxian's subordinates, anyway, he had heard his own son's words, and he knew the things in Ma Chenxian's mansion very well in his heart.

Prime Minister Xiao led the Imperial Army to the backyard of General Ma Chenxian's mansion.

When he arrived at the destination, Prime Minister Xiao waved his hand and ordered the Imperial Forest Army he had brought to search.

After looking for it, someone really found the big hole similar to a porcelain bottle that Ma Chenxian had previously had for Guan Yuxi.

Leading people to the big hole where the porcelain bottle was found, looking at the big hole, Prime Minister Xiao was about to call people down: "Come on, come down and see what's going on?"

But he didn't want to be stopped by Ma Chenxian's guard commander who stayed in the general's mansion without waiting for anyone to go down: "Prime Minister Xiao, this is just a big hole. My general used it to practice martial arts, so it won't compare to it?"

"This..." Prime Minister Xiao glanced contemptuously at the commander of the guards, and his tone was a little disdainful: "Guard, the truth is that you are a first-rank official of the imperial court, and the truth is that you are holding the emperor's imperial edict in your hand. What kind of qualification do you use to come here?" Stop me, or are you saying that the General Protector's Mansion wants to rebel?"

Prime Minister Xiao has a lot of momentum. He has been in a high position all year round, which makes the guard commander who is full of evil spirits feel a little guilty.

In particular, Prime Minister Xiao directly buckled his high hat. If he still stopped him, then that high hat would be considered to be a strict one for his own general. If this is the case, then he would be a sinner. So in the end the commander retreated and chose to let Prime Minister Xiao conduct the search.

Someone tied the rope, and immediately after going down, someone took a sword and slashed at the porcelain arm.

"Prime Minister Xiao, what do you mean by that? We agreed to just go and have a look. Why do you want to destroy the things inside?" The guard leader yelled at Prime Minister Xiao angrily.

Unexpectedly, Prime Minister Xiao just stroked his beard with a face that had nothing to do with me, and said calmly: "Young man, why are you so anxious? The wall is smooth like this. If you don't try it, how will you know if there is any mystery hidden inside?"

As expected of playing tricks, Prime Minister Xiao is a leader in all aspects of stabilizing people.

At the moment when the two quarreled, a small figure climbed down the rope.

Then there was only a loud bang, which broke the argument between the two.

"What's going on?" Prime Minister Xiao came to the entrance of the cave and asked.

"Report to the prime minister, there is a secret passage inside, it's too dark inside, I don't know what's inside, do you want to check it out?" said the imperial guard below.

"Go!" Prime Minister Xiao replied decisively when he thought of the place his son had told him.

But his face turned into a smile of victory.

"Wait!" The guard commander stopped Prime Minister Xiao, and continued: "It is also possible to search, but I must go together!"

"Go ahead, trust your general, you won't be afraid of the shadow if you stand upright!" Prime Minister Xiao agreed.

After the guards went down, they glanced proudly at the remaining people above. Very well, the number of the Imperial Forest Army was far greater than the number of Ma Chenxian, the general's mansion.

But when he glanced casually, he found an uncommonly familiar figure beside him.

Although it was only a flash, and then quickly blocked by a fat figure, Prime Minister Xiao firmly believed that this person must be someone he had been with for a long time.

Looking at that figure from the back, Prime Minister Xiao felt his eyes warm up slowly for some reason, and he still raised his head so as not to let the tears fall from his eyes.
