Lying quietly inside was revealed a lifelike horse the size of an adult man's palm. The entire horse was completely transparent and flawless, and looked extremely beautiful.

Nowadays, suitable craftsmen have been found among the death row prisoners to be responsible for making glass. It must be said that there are quite a few talented people among the death row prisoners, and the sophistication of the things they make is far beyond what was before.

Seeing the colored glass horse in the brocade box, Qin Kui's eyes suddenly lit up, revealing excitement. Completely transparent colored glass, and the shape is so exquisite! Good stuff! This is really good stuff!

Of course, although he was excited in his heart, he still suppressed his emotions very restrainedly.

He quickly thanked her politely: "Your Majesty is so kind. Thank you, Eunuch Sanbao." As he said this, he took the brocade box from Ma Sanbao's hand with a respectful look.

But at the same time as taking the brocade box.

Qin Kui seemed to come back to his senses immediately, remembered something else, and said to himself: "Oh no!"

He looked up.

He saw his colleagues kneeling on the ground in front of him, their eyes like sharp blades, staring straight at him.

Qin Kui broke out in a cold sweat for no apparent reason.

Qin Kui could even vaguely hear the sound of gnashing teeth... He could also feel many different complex emotions coming towards him from all directions, including disdain, anger, disappointment, envy, jealousy... and many other emotions.

For this group of people, they might have originally held on to a glimmer of hope, thinking that Qin Kui could more or less say a few words to them.

Now that they saw this reward, how could they not think: Qin Kui definitely didn't mention it at all! Not only that, everything he said and did just now must have been an act of flattery!

Otherwise, considering the temperament of His Majesty today.

How could he possibly receive such a generous reward?

"broken!"

"Now, I, Qin Kui, have become a complete thorn in their side!"

Qin Kui secretly groaned in his heart.

Originally, the conflict between him and this group of people was only because he had made great contributions in doing things for Zhu Yunhuan, but he was determined to avoid suspicion and tried his best to avoid getting too close to other people.

But now that everyone is kneeling in the Qianqing Palace to make death-defying protests, it would be better for him not to get involved.

While this group of people were suffering here, he still made such a splash in front of everyone...

This huge and sharp contrast - we are here blowing in the cold wind, kneeling on the tiles, working hard in the open air, while you, Qin Kui, go in with a rosy face, coax His Majesty a few words and even get rewarded - no one can accept it.

Qin Kui sighed inwardly with some helplessness.

“Now…”

"But he's gone further and further down the path of being a lone minister and a treacherous minister..."

Did Ma Sanbao do it on purpose? Of course he did it on purpose, or perhaps Zhu Yunhuan had specifically instructed him to do it.

Qin Kui now has more exposure, knows and understands more. He knows a thing or two about many confidential contents in the Alchemy Department, but at the same time, he has more freedom than the group of people who are imprisoned in the Alchemy Department for research.

Everything in the world will overflow if it is too full, and will suffer from loss if it is too surplus. It is natural to pay attention to the balance - a lone minister is the best.

In addition, this can also be said to be a hook, a piece of fat meat hung in front of other court officials. Qin Kui worked diligently for Zhu Yunhuan, and Zhu Yunhuan also gave him enough rewards and favors on the surface.

The world is full of goodwill, and the world is all good.

Qin Kui got these things, so how could others not want them?

I caught Fu Youwen before.

In the future, whenever Zhu Yunhuan had any needs or demands, he might only need to slightly beckon his finger, and there would be a lot of people willing to take the bait.

This is also the human heart.

Feeling the stalemate between Qin Kui and other court officials, Ma Sanbao knew that he had accomplished his task today.

At that moment, he pretended nothing had happened, and with a smile, he stretched out his hand to signal the way forward: "Master Qin, please come this way. I will see you off."

The chief eunuch of the palace personally saw him off, which was also a huge vanity.

Qin Kui suddenly felt that the gazes falling on him became much sharper.

However, since Ma Sanbao had already taken the initiative to ask, Qin Kui naturally couldn't refuse.

I could only remain humble and nodded slightly: "Thank you very much, sir."

After saying this, feeling uncomfortable all over, he and Ma Sanbao walked slowly towards the palace gate, passing their colleagues kneeling in front of them.

Wait until they are a little further away.

Behind him, a familiar and fierce curse came from afar:

"Traitor! Qin Kui! You've learned so much from the saints in vain!"

"You bastard! You have no room for anything other than glory!"

"Fawning on the superiors! A great treason and a great evil!"

"..."

Anyway, he has already embarked on the path of being a "lone minister" and there is no turning back. Fortunately, Qin Kui had heard some of these words before, both openly and secretly, and he had already anticipated this when he acted this way today.

So Qin Kui was not angry.

Just pretend you haven't heard anything.

After walking for a while, and hearing complete silence, Qin Kui turned to look at Ma Sanbao beside him with some curiosity and asked, "Eunuch, why does the scene outside the Qianqing Palace today look so ridiculous?"

What he was asking about, of course, was that his colleagues were all kneeling outside the Qianqing Palace, but they were still busy dealing with memorials. He knew that it was good to be cautious in what he said and did, but after thinking about it, he couldn't help but ask.

When asked by Qin Kui, Ma Sanbao couldn't help but sneer.

Then he quickly gathered himself together and explained, "Your Majesty said they are all loyal ministers who are concerned about the common people of the world. This must be... delaying anything but delaying the official business of the court and the people."
