Beautiful mayor's wife

Chapter 1509: In Desperation

All of Han Mingguang's troubles recently were planned by Ma Xiaoyao. First, he spread rumors to slander Han Mingguang, then attracted the imperial envoy Shi Baode, and then used tricks to hurt Shi Baode, causing Shi Baode to turn against Han Mingguang...

Ma Xiaoyao did so much to make Han Mingguang unlucky. It would be even better if Han Mingguang could be pulled down from the position of the general soldier. Han Mingguang has no power, which means that the tiger has no teeth. Mingguang's revenge is much easier.

……

Shi Baode left quietly without telling anyone. When Han Mingguang got the news, Shi Baode had already left Baihu City.

"What does he mean? He came here with great fanfare, but finally left quietly. He doesn't think much of me!" Han Mingguang was very annoyed. He originally wanted to wait for Shi Baode to calm down. Apologizing, but before he could act, Shi Baode left.

Han Mingguang just thought with his toes, and knew that after Shi Baode returned to the imperial city, he would definitely speak ill of him in front of the emperor. If the emperor believed him... then he would suffer.

"Shi Baode, you are a fucking bastard!" Han Mingguang cursed.

"My lord, you should hurry up and find a way to remedy it, that Shi Baode will never let it go." The head housekeeper Gu Zhiqiu said with a worried face.

"At this point... what else can I do?" Han Mingguang shook his head in distress.

"Look for a relationship." Gu Zhiqiu suggested: "Your Excellency has also made a lot of powerful people over the years, and now is the time to ask them for help."

Han Mingguang pondered for a moment: "You're right... I really can't just sit and wait for death, so how about it, I'll go to the military camp now."

"Go to the military camp?" Gu Zhiqiu was stunned: "What are you going to the military camp for?"

"Look for a relationship." Han Mingguang didn't hide his thoughts: "Chief Guan Yi and Marquis Xuanwu are in-laws. I'll ask Guan Yi to contact Marquis Xuanwu for me. If Marquis Xuanwu is willing to help me, then things will be settled." Transfer."

"Marquis Xuanwu? Does he have such great energy?" Gu Zhiqiu blinked.

"He has great energy." Han Mingguang curled his lips: "Xuanwuhou's sister is Concubine Hua, the emperor's favorite concubine, and this Concubine Hua is more than ten years older than Marquis Xuanwu. It can be said that Marquis Xuanwu is Hua Guifei. The noble concubine brought them up with one hand, and the two have a very deep relationship, in the eyes of Hua Guifei, Xuanwuhou is both a younger brother and a son, and she loves Xuanwuhou very much."

"So that's how it is." Gu Zhiqiu suddenly realized: "If Marquis Xuanwu can ask Concubine Hua to help, then things will be easier to handle."

"The key point is still Guan Yi. If Guan Yi is not willing to help me contact Xuanwuhou, then nothing will be discussed." Han Mingguang said: "Although I have often visited Xuanwuhou these years, he... I'm not very enthusiastic, but it's understandable, he's a relative of the emperor, and I'm just a small general soldier, so it's understandable that he doesn't look down on me."

"Your Excellency has been very kind to Guan these years. If you speak in person, he should not be able to refuse." Gu Zhiqiu said hesitantly.

"It's hard to say." Han Mingguang shook his head: "Guan Yi is very evil-tempered. If he doesn't want to help, it's useless for me to force him. Besides, he and Marquis Xuanwu are in-laws. Based on this relationship alone, I will take him away." He can't help it." At this point, Han Mingguang let out a sulking sigh: "Let's treat a dead horse as a doctor, I will do what I have to do, and as for the result...it depends on God's will."

That afternoon, Han Mingguang found Guan Yi, and the two chatted for several hours. When Han Mingguang left, he was smiling. It seemed that the two had a good conversation.

As soon as Han Mingguang returned to the General Military Mansion, the chief steward, Gu Zhiqiu, approached him and asked cautiously, "My lord, how is the matter going? Is that Guan Yi willing to help?"

"Well, we've reached a conclusion." Han Mingguang smiled and nodded, "Guan Yi promised to help."

"Oh, this is really great." Gu Zhiqiu's face brightened.

"You just need to know about it, don't spread it to the outside world." Han Mingguang warned: "I am a dignified general and asked a commander-in-chief for help. It would be embarrassing to say it."

"Yes, yes, I won't go out and talk nonsense." Gu Zhiqiu hastily promised.

"Well, I'm tired, go and rest for a while, don't bother me if there is nothing particularly important." Throwing down a sentence, Han Mingguang walked away swaggeringly.

After Han Mingguang's figure completely disappeared, Gu Zhiqiu put away the smile on his face. After hesitating for a moment, he turned and walked towards the gate. He walked very quickly and came to the gate in the blink of an eye.

"The butler is going out." The soldier guarding the gate greeted him politely.

"Well, go out and do something." Gu Zhiqiu nodded slightly.

After coming out of the General Military Mansion, Gu Zhiqiu began to wander the streets. After making sure that no one was following him, he walked into a small inn, went up to the second floor and asked for a private room, and then ordered a table of wine and food. Drink alone.

About half an hour later, the door of the private room was suddenly pushed open, and a hunchbacked old man walked in tremblingly.

"You're finally here." Gu Zhiqiu raised his eyelids.

"Dangdang!"

The old man closed the door, then opened the chair and sat down: "I rushed over when I saw the mark you left, tell me, why are you looking for me in such a hurry?" This old man is none other than Ma Xiaoyao Dressed up, he had an agreement with Gu Zhiqiu, if Gu Zhiqiu wanted to find him, he would leave a mark somewhere, Ma Xiaoyao would dare to come when he saw it, this small inn was the place where they met.

"I asked you something, and you have to answer me truthfully." Gu Zhiqiu stared at Ma Xiaoyao with piercing eyes.

"What's the matter?" Ma Xiaoyao picked up the flagon and took a sip, smashing his mouth: "This wine is okay, but it's a little weak."

"Did you pretend to be Li Ming and go to the inn to insult the imperial envoy two days ago?" Gu Zhiqiu asked.

"Hehe... So that's what happened..." Ma Xiaoyao smiled: "That's right, I did it." Now Gu Zhiqiu and him can be regarded as allies in the trenches, and there is no need to hide some things.

"You can really do it!" Gu Zhiqiu gave a thumbs up: "Did you know? You made Han Mingguang very passive by doing this. Now that the imperial envoy has returned to the imperial city, if nothing unexpected happens, he will definitely be there." Speak ill of Han Mingguang in front of the emperor."

"It's a good thing." Ma Xiaoyao said with a smile: "If Han Mingguang falls, you will be relieved. You don't have to worry about Han Mingguang taking care of you anymore. Then you can be with the second lady in a fair and honest manner."

"I also want to see Han Mingguang fall, preferably beheaded." Gu Zhiqiu said coldly: "The key problem is that Han Mingguang is already trying to find a way to save himself, and he has made good progress."

"Self-help?" Ma Xiaoyao paused slightly with the hand holding the jug, then raised his neck and took a sip: "How can he save himself? He offended the imperial envoy this time, and he is a celebrity in front of the emperor. It can make Han Mingguang go around without food."

"Do you know Guan Yi?" Gu Zhiqiu asked in a deep voice.

Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "I know, isn't he the commander-in-chief? I used to work under him."

"Han Mingguang asked Guan Yi for help, and asked Guan Yi to help him tide over this difficulty, and Guan Yi agreed."

"Guan Yi? Just rely on him? Oh, yes, I remembered, Guan Yi seems to have something to do with a certain Marquis..."

"It's Marquis Xuanwu. Guanyi's youngest daughter married Marquis Xuanwu as his concubine. The two are in-laws and have an unusual relationship."

"Even if Guan Yi can ask Marquis Xuanwu for help, he probably won't be able to save Han Mingguang, right? How much energy does a Marquis have? Can he influence the emperor's opinion?"

"Xuanwuhou's elder sister is Hua Guifei, the emperor's favorite concubine, and Hua Guifei loves Xuanwuhou's younger brother very much. Do you think Xuanwuhou has great energy?"

"..." Ma Xiaoyao's eyes stared directly: "Is there such a relationship?"

"I also heard what Han Mingguang said." Gu Zhiqiu let out a sigh of relief: "Ma Xiaoyao, if Marquis Xuanwu asks Concubine Hua to come forward to help, do you think the emperor will deal with Han Mingguang?"

The corner of Ma Xiaoyao's mouth twitched a few times: "Fuck! This Han Mingguang really knows how to find connections, and that Guan Yi is also a bastard, why did he agree to help?"

"It must be that Han Mingguang promised some benefits, which made Guan Yi tempted." Gu Zhiqiu guessed.

"No, this matter must be messed up for him." Ma Xiaoyao waved his fist viciously: "We must not let Guan Yi help Han Mingguang."

"Stir up?" Gu Zhiqiu's eyes lit up: "What are you going to do?"

Ma Xiaoyao shook his head: "I haven't made up my mind yet."

"Then think about it quickly. The longer this matter drags on, the greater the variables. We can't afford to wait." Gu Zhiqiu said anxiously. He only has one thought now, that is, to see Han Mingguang fall. When Mingguang was finished, Gu Zhiqiu would be relieved, and he no longer had to worry about Han Mingguang's revenge on him.

"Don't rush, let me think about it." Ma Xiaoyao said impatiently.

In the following time, Gu Zhiqiu didn't say another word, and even breathed as quietly as possible, for fear of disturbing Ma Xiaoyao's thinking.

Ma Xiaoyao was drinking while quickly thinking about countermeasures. The pot of wine soon bottomed out, but Ma Xiaoyao still didn't come up with a safe solution, "Bang!" Ma Xiaoyao threw the jug on the table: "No, I'll drink it today." The state is not good, and I can’t think of a good solution, I’ll go back to sleep first, and then I’ll think of a solution when I wake up.” After finishing speaking, Ma Xiaoyao got up and left.

"You have to figure out a way." Gu Zhiqiu reassured.

Ma Xiaoyao waved his hand and left the inn without looking back.

There is a saying that is good, foreign thieves are easy to stop, but house thieves are hard to guard against!How could Han Mingguang have a good life if Gu Zhiqiu, a family thief, tipped off Ma Xiaoyao?If you want to blame, blame Han Mingguang himself, who told him not to be strict, and told Gu Zhiqiu about looking for Guan Yi's help, so things may change.
