Ma Cheng took two steps quickly, came to Ma Shiying, hugged Ma Shiying's legs and cried, "Dad, you don't know how worried your son is! Now, my son brought the army into the palace and immediately killed the foolish lord to avenge his father!"

Just now, Ma Cheng was just crying and did not see anything wrong with Ma Shiying. But now he is getting closer and I find that Ma Shiying is covered with feces. At the same time, Ma Luan and Ma Xi are similar, with undry feces on their heads. Seeing this, Ma Cheng quickly let go of his hands and smells the three people at the same time, and a wave of disgust comes from his throat.

It turned out that after Ma Cheng ran away last night, Ma Shiying and his son hid in the ruins of the Neiku to avoid the search of Lu Siye's personal soldiers. It was easier at the beginning, after all, Lu Siye only brought one hundred people, but with Mei Chun's joining, the three of them could no longer hide.

In the end, there was no way. In order to escape the search, the three of them could only hide in the cesspool in the ruins. Fortunately, in the past six months, many craftsmen entered the imperial city to work, so the cesspool was filled with feces. If it was empty, it would be easy to be discovered.

Although the weather in Nanzhili was very cold in January, the cesspool did not freeze. The three of them got covered in feces, but they also took this opportunity to get rid of the search.

The three of them waited in the cesspool until dawn, and there was slowly no voice outside, and then they dared to come out of the cesspool. Ma Xi went out to investigate. The Jinyiwei guards guarding Xi'an Gate and Xihua Gate had already escaped. The two city gates were wide open, and some eunuchs and palace maids were running around in panic.

Ma Xi stood in the corridor with a stinky smell. Because the smell was pleasant, all those who fled were avoiding it. Ma Xi grabbed a small eunuch, pressed his neck with a knife and asked, "What happened in the palace? Where is the Jinyiwei guard at the gate?"

"Good man, please spare me. The palace is in chaos. Some of the Jinyiwei guards guarding the gate have died in battle, and some have escaped!"

"Diet in the battle? Something happened in the palace?"

"Uncle, the Marquis of Zhenguo led his troops into the palace, and the other servants don't know! Please give up your hands and let me run away!"

Ma Sei was very happy to hear this news, which means he didn't have to die. Ma Sei released the little eunuch, entered the ruins again, and reported the details of the matter to Ma Shiying to know.

Ma Shiying was tired and hungry after the troubles last night. However, as the chief minister of the court, Ma Shiying still had to take up the presiding of the chief minister. However, although he was wearing a big red python robe, he was covered in feces, which was a bit funny.

After hearing Ma Shiying talk about the situation outside, she was so angry that she cursed: "What does this rebellious son want to do? Can you betray his father and kill the lord? You two help me enter the palace and meet this inglorious bastard without a monarch or father!"

Ma Shiying left the ruins of the Neiku with the help of Ma Luan and Maxi. The outside was indeed similar to what Maxi said, and was in chaos everywhere. Ma Shiying and others entered the palace through the unguarded Xihua Gate. At this time, the battle in the palace was not over yet, and some Jinyiwei who were loyal to Zhu Lunkui were still fighting with Ma Cheng's guards.

Ma Shiying and others met a group of Ma Cheng's guards in Xihuamen. The leading household recognized Ma Shiying. Seeing that Ma Shiying was still alive, the household quickly stepped forward to salute and asked excitedly: "Yuan Fu is still alive. The general will send someone to protect Yuan Fu to the Marquis's place now!"

In this way, Ma Shiying and others came to Cining Palace under the protection of the guards.

Ma Shiying was so angry that she couldn't bear to see her second son in front of her. She knew that her second son was extremely cunning, but she didn't expect to be able to stop him.

At the critical moment, I was able to leave me and run away alone.

"Ma Cheng, why do you, an unfilial son, abandon me and run away alone?"

When Ma Cheng saw Ma Shiying questioning him angrily, he quickly explained: "Dad, it was a critical moment at that time. My son could not explain in detail to his father. Lu Siye's goal is his son. Only when his son attracts their attention can you be safe and sound!"

Ma Cheng's words were purely inappropriate. After Ma Cheng said that, he was afraid that he would not let go, so he quickly called the eunuchs and maids in Cining Palace: "Did you guys, don't you see my father's dirty stuff? You guys are still here to clean up my father?"

The palace maids and eunuchs who were already trembling with fear next to them dared to come over. Ma Cheng said with a smile: "Dad, you go take a shower and change your clothes first, and you will tell you good news later!"

Ma Shiying glared at Ma Cheng, but he was covered in feces and his clothes were wet, which was really uncomfortable, so Ma Shiying did not continue to blame Ma Cheng, but followed the palace maids and eunuchs to the back hall.

Seeing Ma Shiying leave, Ma Cheng's expression slowly turned cloudy. He thought that this old guy was dead, but he didn't expect that he could still live until now. You must know that as long as Ma Shiying is alive, no matter how big Ma Cheng does, even if Ma Cheng calls himself emperor, he will respectfully regard Ma Shiying as the emperor. Thinking of this, Ma Cheng sighed, and now he can only support Ma Shiying as the emperor, and then wait for this old guy to die before he can take over.

However, Ma Shiying is not at all beneficial to becoming emperor. Ma Shiying is an old bureaucrat who is clear about how this country operates. At the same time, Ma Shiying is full of talents, so at least there will be no turmoil in the short term.

Thinking of this, Ma Cheng had no choice but to go with the palace maids and eunuchs to serve Ma Shiying in a bath. After all, Ma Cheng has to be a filial son now, and he still has to do the superficial skill.

Ma Cheng came to the back hall and followed Ma Shiying to serve tea and pour water, which was a good son. Half an hour later, Ma Shiying and others finished bathing and sat in the back hall to drink tea. At this time, Ma Cheng said what had just happened.

When Ma Cheng said that he was going to kill Zhu Lunkui, then blame Lu Jiude, and then supported Ma Shiying to proclaim himself emperor, Ma Shiying stood up and cursed: "Bastard! Bastard! How did I give birth to your disaster? If I had known this, I should have strangled you to death when you were born!"

Ma Cheng felt very aggrieved when he heard Ma Shiying scolding him: "Dad, you are all for you, your son! Dad worked hard for the Ming Dynasty, but see how the emperor treats you, my father and son now? Send soldiers to kill us. Since this is the case, don't blame your son for being cruel. The emperor takes turns to do it and come to our family this year! Didn't Zhu Yuanzhang also be a beggar?"

After Ma Cheng finished speaking, Ma Shiying did not react at all. Ma Luan stood up and cursed: "Second brother, how did your title come from? How did your official position come from? Didn't it all given to you by the emperor? Now you have some forces but want to do something wrong, and you want to bring your father to make mistakes with you. The Ma family does not have you as a descendant!"

Ma Shiying scolded Ma Cheng with no choice. Who said he was Ma Cheng's son? Now Ma Luan is also here to scold Ma Cheng, which makes Ma Cheng angry.

"Fuck, boss, what you said is really nice. How did my title come from? I fought at the top of Nandu City with one sword and one shot! Now that I have made great contributions, that tyrant king will not reward him, but I will have to kill me! Since he is on the first day of the lunar month, then I will be fifteenth, killing the tyrant king and supporting his father as a

emperor!"

Ma Xi and Ma Luan had the best relationship. Now when he saw Ma Cheng calling himself my son, he stood up and said in anger: "Second brother, what were you talking about? The eldest brother is also for our family!"

Seeing that Ma Cheng was against him, he was so angry that he stepped forward and swung his arm to slapped Ma Xi in the face: "Damn, what are you? How dare a bastard teach me a lesson?"

Ma Xi was born in a humble family, but now he is a senior general. Although he was beaten by Ma Cheng, he did not dare to speak, but his eyes showed hatred.

When Ma Shiying saw the three sons clashing, she scolded in anger: "Okay! Ma Cheng, you call yourself me, whose I am?"

Ma Cheng could contradict Ma Luan and beat Ma Xi, but he didn't dare to be disrespectful to Ma Shiying. Now seeing Ma Shiying getting angry, Ma Cheng had to say, "Dad, it was wrong for his son just now. But now this is the case. The emperor has been offended by his son, and some Jinyiwei in the palace have been almost killed. Dad, please do it!" After saying that, Ma Cheng sat on the chair aside and handed over this difficult problem to Ma Shiying.

To be honest, when Ma Cheng said he wanted to support Ma Shiying and became emperor just now, Ma Shiying was really excited. That was the emperor, above all the people! It was fake that Ma Shiying said that he was not moved.

But Ma Shiying is different from Ma Cheng, who is passionate about his blood. It is easy to kill Zhu Lunkui, but what about the future? Although Ma Cheng's combat power is strong now, the Ming Dynasty still occupies most of Southern China. In addition, the north is in the hands of the Qing Dynasty, Ma Shiying can actually control the territory of the ten prefectures of the Southern Zhili province.

If Ma Shiying became emperor now, he would immediately become the target of public criticism. Several minor regimes in the south of the Ming Dynasty would definitely regard Ma Shiying as their mortal enemy. At the same time, because they occupied the wealthy Southern Zhili, they would become the thorn in the eyes of the Qing Dynasty in the north. In this way, even if Ma Cheng could fight, could he deal with the whole world?

But what if I learn from Cao Cao to use the emperor to command the princes? In this way, the passiveness in politics will be much smaller. Although Zhu Lunkui has a distant bloodline, he is the legal heir of Zhu Yousong. The legality of the Tang Dynasty and Gui Dynasty regimes in the south are definitely not as good as Zhu Lunkui. With the banner of legality, the recovery of several southern provinces will receive the support of local gentry and the resistance will be much smaller.

The fundamental thing about politics is to unite the majority and attack a small group. As a political old man, Ma Shiying is naturally well aware of it. Although Ma Shiying's party has an absolute advantage in the court, the Donglin party still has an advantage in the people, so choosing a path with the lowest cost and the most favorable to Ma Shiying is the right way.

After careful consideration, Ma Shiying had made up his mind and said to Ma Cheng: "Cheng'er, you send someone to escort Li Zhan, Zhang Jie, Yang Weiyuan, and Tian Yang into the palace!"

These people are all Ma Shiying's confidants. Ma Cheng knew what was going on when he heard it. Ma Shiying was probably unsure of his mind and was about to discuss it with his confidant.

Ma Cheng knew that things were not good after hearing Ma Shiying say this. These people were Ma Shiying's confidant and ministers of the Ming Dynasty. Except for Erwuzai Tian Yang, all of them in history have died for the Ming Dynasty. Can the plan to proclaim themselves be successful?

Ma Cheng was about to object, but Ma Shiying already knew what Ma Cheng was going to say, and shouted: "Don't talk nonsense, I have made up my mind for my father, go and invite these people! By the way, add your two uncles, Yang Wencong and Yue Qijie."
