Chapter 38 Wave after wave

To be honest, until Ma Er shouted this, there was still room for maneuver on this matter today.

Because there were actually only a handful of people who recognized Ma Xuansheng, the "future prince-in-law" at the scene.

After all, Ma Xuansheng is different from Ma Er. He is not like a gangster who causes trouble on the street every day and "brushes his face" everywhere.

If Ma Xuansheng can act without being recognized today, then he can take advantage of the fact that no one is killed yet and "make the big thing a trivial one."

For example, first arrest a few gangsters and put them in jail, top up the vat where people gathered to cause trouble, then compensate the inn with enough money for management, and then send Ma Er, the troublemaker, back to his hometown overnight, and then go to Han Yu Please beg for mercy over there and ensure that Ma Er will not cause any big trouble in the future

After this series of operations, Ma Er's life will be 80% saved.

As for whether he will continue to harm the local people in his hometown in the future, that is another matter; as the saying goes, "The mountains are high and the emperor is far away." There are not even a thousand but eight hundred local tyrants and evil gentry in Dazu. As long as they are If your backing in the court is strong enough, just go ahead and do it.

However, right now, Ma Er just didn't know how to live or die. He insisted on turning his head and yelling at Ma Xuan Sheng, as if he was afraid that everyone would not know that his patron brother was already there.

In this way, everyone can tell that the young man dressed as a Confucian scholar standing next to the officer leading the team is the legendary brother-in-law of Ma Er.

"Humph, I have long heard that this Ma Er is doing mischief in the city relying on his elder brother's power, but I have never seen his elder brother show his face. So he looks like this."

"Don't mention it, this Ma Xuansheng is really handsome. He and his brother are almost not born from the same mother. It's no wonder that he was selected as the number one scholar and became the consort."

"Oh, what's the use of being good-looking? Looking at his brother's virtue, I'm afraid being a brother is not a good thing."

"That's right, I don't believe that Ma Er relies on his reputation. There is no benefit at all if he doesn’t know anything about the things that his head does.”

Everyone, you know, a person’s mouth has two skins, and the tongue can crush someone to death.

It would be better if you change the place. Maybe the common people are too timid to talk about anything after seeing so many officers and soldiers, but this Baoyuan Inn is a place where dragons and snakes are mixed. Among the guests here, Many of them are not good people, but they really dare to say so.

And those who gossiped were obviously not afraid that these voices would reach Ma Xuansheng's ears, and they even meant to deliberately antagonize him.

Hearing that Ma Xuan’s voice, he must have been anxious.

He immediately thought in his mind, "Ma Er, Ma Er, as a person who has already stepped into the court and will become a relative of the emperor in the future, I might never set foot in this kind of market place again in my eight lifetimes.

These untouchables, let alone pointing fingers at me, from now on, even if they want to see me, they will have to kneel in the hall.

But today, for your sake. Live up to expectationsBrother, I'm still here. I think I'll try my best to save you. After all, blood is thicker than water when we are brothers. Killing you will not be easy for the family.

It would be better if you sold me out as soon as we met.

Now everyone knows that the person standing here is your brother, the number one scholar, the consort, and your rumored backer

Then how can I protect you

If Ma Xuansheng still had illusions about saving his younger brother on the way here, then at this moment, he did. It was a complete cruelty.

Compared with his own political life and even the future of his entire life, what was the life of his younger brother?

What's more, Through Ma Er's thoughtless shouting, Ma Xuan Sheng once again confirmed that even if he could keep Ma Er today, his younger brother would sooner or later trick him in other matters.

Then. It's better to choose a day than to hit the sun, and "kill relatives for justice" will take advantage of this time.

After the breath of "unbridled", Ma Xuansheng, who had already made some calculations in his heart, suddenly shouted loudly, and all at once. The voices that were talking about him in the lobby were suppressed, "Ma'er, you bastard, it's in vain that you still know that I am your brother." When he said this, he looked upright and awe-inspiring, matching his handsome appearance and smooth words. The accent is really confusing, "Brother, I am busy with official duties and have no time to care about you, so you use my name in this city to do whatever you want," he said, and he hugged the officer next to him. , "If it weren't for the fact that the head of the military army hadn't found out today that you were going to cause trouble here, and quickly sent someone to deliver a letter to me, and brought me to see you, I might still have been kept in the dark by you."

I had to It makes sense for Ma Xuansheng to be appreciated by Han Yu. His on-the-spot reactions, language organization skills, and acting skills may not be matched by many people who have been in officialdom for twenty years more than him.

According to what he said, the current situation is. As a result, he had no idea about all the bad things Ma Er did using his name. These officers and soldiers were not transferred by him because of his connections. They were just carrying out their official duties. They just called him over by the way and asked him to take a look at himself. This brother has done a good job.

Since Ma Xuansheng has already "arranged" it, the "Martial Army Leader" next to him will naturally not say anything and just follow the prince's actions.

"Brother!" When Na Ma Er heard this, he was stunned on the spot.

How could he have thought that what he would get after asking for help would actually be from his elder brother. After a lot of scolding, and listening to the meaning behind his words, Ma Xuansheng had already unilaterally cut ties with him

"What are you, you, I am not your brother, I don't have one."A brother like you." Ma Xuansheng didn't want Ma Er to continue talking, because the more the latter said, the more detrimental it would be to him, so he stopped Ma Er with the first sentence, and then turned to the officer next to him and said , "Wu Juntou, you don't have to worry about me. Acting in accordance with the law is what the saying goes: the emperor breaks the law and the common people are equally guilty, not to mention he is just a fool."

As he said this, he tried his best to signal to Wu Juntou with his eyes. Hurry up and don't let Ma Er say any more.

Wu Juntou also understood and immediately said, "Okay, the prince-in-law is indeed the pillar of the country, and he can do justice even when facing his own brothers. , Killing relatives for justice, Wu admires it." He first used a flattery to help Ma Xuansheng make the rhetoric he just said more solid, and then turned to his men and shouted loudly, "Brothers, fight these Catch all the gangsters who are causing trouble and take them back for discussion."

With his order, the hundreds of officers and soldiers under him immediately began to arrest people.

Do you think those gangsters are people who can be easily caught?

In addition to gangsters, there are also waiters and guests in the lobby. Hundreds of people, can the officers and soldiers distinguish them clearly in a while? Can they be captured?

In addition, this inn has more than one entrance and exit, can they escape?

In fact, There were many smart gangsters, including Sun Yixie, who felt something was wrong when Ma Xuansheng said his first words. They thought something bad at the time. Listening to this, Ma Erye's consort brother was going to follow him. He's angry, so let's not stay too long. Let's run away while the officers and soldiers haven't moved. We might suffer disaster if we run too slowly.

At this moment, the officers and soldiers really started to catch him. Now that there are people, the gangsters are even more scattered, running rampant, running and hiding wherever they want.

Of course, these gangsters will just run away, it doesn't matter. .

The important thing is to capture Ma Er.

Wu Juntou is also a smart person. He can see that the Prince Consort is really anxious. He wanted to tell Ma Er to "shut up", so after he gave the order, he was not idle. He immediately called on several elite subordinates and went straight to Ma Er's side with him.

When the gangsters who carried Ma Er's sedan chair and the younger brothers around him who had been beaten with him during the day saw the fight, they threw Ma Er's sedan chair away and ran away.

Ma'er fell from the sedan chair and fell to the ground with additional injuries. He was screaming in pain. It was difficult to crawl, let alone run away.

At this moment, there was nothing. Someone should take care of him and save him.

To put it bluntly, Ma Er, who has no backing, is just a thing that he hates. He has no sense of "loyalty" at all. He has no real friends.

In this way, Ma Er was easily captured by the Wujun leader and was taken away immediately. However, most of his gangsters escaped and only those who were caught were caught. Thirty people.

This is the end of today’s farce.It's time to come to an end, but

"You four, come with us." When the people were almost captured, Wu Juntou actually came to Huang Donglai, Linghu Xiang, Qin Feng and Tyrell In front of me, came such a sentence.

"Well" Huang Donglai was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and replied, "This military master, we are just acting in self-defense. Is it possible that this is also a crime?"

His words, At first glance, it sounds reasonable, and there is nothing unusual about it, but in fact, the fact that Wu Juntou came to say this and tried to take them back was not Wu Juntou's own intention, but Ma Xuansheng's instruction< /p>

Obviously, the future prince-in-law had other plans. He wanted to design the parties involved in this incident to be buried with his younger brother.

Although the person who "needs" and "needs" to get rid of Ma Er at the moment is Ma Xuansheng himself, some people are like this. After making some difficult choices, they will find something else. People or things used as excuses or sacrifices to make oneself feel better.

In this example, Ma Xuansheng's logic is that if he hadn't come to cause trouble for these people, Ma Er wouldn't have made such a big fuss in the city. He wouldn't have made such a big fuss. If the teacher doesn't care about him, I won't be forced to get rid of him.

According to this idea, a further step is that it is these people who made me have to get rid of my brother. I am also forced to have no choice but to take revenge.

To sum up, Ma Xuansheng is planning to trick Huang Donglai and others back to the Yamen first, and then find an opportunity to assassinate them.

As for Huang Donglai and others, they have not yet seen any problem here, because from their perspective, Ma Xuansheng’s previous performance of righteously exterminating relatives should be true; objectively speaking, , he indeed did not ask the officers and soldiers to help his brother, but instead asked the military leader to "act impartially" and capture Ma Er.

So Huang Donglai thought it was just "taking a confession". We didn't do anything wrong, so we just went with them.

So, he immediately turned his head and looked into the lobby, wanting to say hello to Fudozi and Xiaolin, and ask them if they wanted to come together.

However, he stood there and scanned several times, but did not see Fudozi and Lin Yuancheng.

At this time, Huang Donglai thought that with the skills of his uncle and Xiao Lin, nothing would happen. No matter whether they hid or left, they must have their reasons, so let them go. They will show up when we come back from taking the confession.

Thinking of this, he quickly exchanged glances with Linghu Xiang, Qin Feng, and Tyrell., and then the four of them said a few more polite words to the leader of the military force, and rushed to the Yamen Gate along with the officers and soldiers and the group of gangsters who were being escorted. ,,
