Chapter 189: The Turmoil in Beijing (5)
"Obstacles, obstacles, etc., etc., etc., and ......
The old man was completely stunned by the ugliness of the elder brothers, pointed at the old thirteen and the others, and couldn't say a complete sentence tremblingly.
"Huang Ama is angry, Huang Ama is angry, this matter is all wrong with the sons, and he failed to control the younger brothers, but this evil thing happened, the sons and daughters were afraid, and asked the emperor Ama to be angry."
In the chaos, the prince suddenly knelt on the ground, pleading with a handful of snot and tears, these words seemed to persuade the old man to calm his anger, but how to listen to it was wrong, it was clear that he was accusing the brothers of committing the following crimes, and he was complaining.
"Huang Ama is angry, and the sons think that the tenth brother is indeed wrong in this matter, but the thirteenth brother is arrogant and domineering, without any dignity and humility, but it is not right, when he is beaten, he should be punished, and he also asked the emperor Ama to blame him, you must take care of the dragon body."
The ninth master was very shrewd, and when he saw that the prince had bad intentions, he didn't dare to go along with his intentions, so he hurriedly flashed out from the side, and also fell to the ground on his knees, and pleaded bitterly.
"Huang Ama, your dragon body is important, don't lose it!"
"Huang Ama, you dissipate your anger, and this matter will be dealt with slowly."
"Please calm the anger of the emperor!"
……
As soon as they saw that the prince and the ninth master were kneeling, all the elder brothers didn't dare to stand stupidly anymore, and several little elder brothers, including the eldest elder brother to the old seventeenth brother below, all knelt on the ground and persuaded them blindly.
"Get out, get out of here!"
The old man was already angry, no matter what everyone said, he slammed the table and roared angrily.
"The emperor Ama is angry, the emperor is angry, and the ministers are ......"
Hearing the old man shouting like this, all the brothers were even more panicked, at least on the surface, and they all hurriedly kowtowed.
"Get out, get out!"
How can the old man's anger be so easy to dissipate, he really doesn't want to see a group of brothers kneeling in front of him anymore, and he doesn't want to listen to the explanations of the brothers, so he stomped his feet and ruthlessly issued an eviction order.
"Huang Ama take care, and the ministers will retire!"
The old man has already said this, and the brothers don't dare to stay any longer, so they can only thank each other, and each of them quit the hall and went out of the palace on their own.
"Your Majesty, your dragon body is important, this matter can be dealt with slowly, don't hurt the dragon body."
The brothers have all gone, but Ma Qi and other scholars have not left, but in the face of the angry old man, no one dares to come forward to admonish easily, only Tong Guowei, who has just become a scholar, is more courageous, walked out from the side, and persuaded the old man softly.
"Alas, siniquity, siniquity, I, alas, ......"
The old man is a shrewd master, although he was dizzy when the incident happened, but as soon as his anger subsided slightly, he immediately realized that there was something wrong in this farce, and his mood was really sad.
"Your Majesty, this matter is all due to the payment of debts, and the ministers, the people who are the ministers, should not discuss current affairs indiscriminately, but there is a barrier in their hearts, so they have to risk their lives to speak, and please let Your Majesty be tolerant."
Tong Guowei fell to his knees, kowtowed his head heavily, and spoke earnestly.
"That's it, if you have anything to say, just say it."
The old man sighed, waved his hand weakly, and approved Tong Guowei's request with great interest.
"Your Majesty, it is a good thing to clear the deficit of the treasury, and it is also an urgent task of the imperial court, but it is feasible but there must be rules, as if there is something wrong with this kind of forced pursuit at the moment, and now it is actually a big loss of the dignity of the court to the elder brother to sell his property to repay the debt, although there are ten elder brothers' misdeeds, but the law can not be ignored, please also ask Your Majesty to be clear."
Tong Guowei took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed the deer in his heart, and tried to speak as calmly as possible, although the words were fifty boards each, but in fact, he was persuading the old man to re-evaluate the matter of paying off the debt, and it was clear that he was extremely dissatisfied with the forcible pursuit of the fourth master and the thirteenth master.
"Well...... what do you think of it?"
Things have come to such a field now, the old man knows that the matter of paying off the debt is a little unsustainable, no matter what, the court is to save face, now there is a ten elder brother to sell the property, and then down, maybe there will be more jokes, this is naturally not the situation that the old man wants to see, but the old man does not want to pay off the debt halfway, after all, the emptiness of the treasury is an indisputable fact, besides, although the fourth master and others acted too ruthlessly, but after all, they are doing the right thing, and the old man can't bear to be responsible. After hesitating in his heart, he really didn't know how to solve this matter for a while, and after pondering for a while, he still threw the problem to Tong Guowei.
"Your Majesty Mingjian, the minister thinks that this is an important task, and must have responsibility, and the ability to do it, therefore, the minister proposed that the king of Chengjun preside over its affairs, when it can be done, this minister's shallow view also, but also ask Your Majesty to make a holy judgment."
Tong Guowei was obviously waiting for the old man's question, and he didn't even think about it, so he already responded to the answer he already had in his heart.
"Huh? Third? ”
The old man really didn't expect Tong Guowei to push out the third master to replace the fourth master, and he couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this.
"Your Majesty, now that the disaster relief in Henan is coming to an end, there has been great progress in the matter of governing the river, and the rest of the matters are just step-by-step matters, there are two cadres of Beihe Governor Chen Qidong and Henan Governor Rong Zhu, when there will be no chaos, there is no need for the king of Chengjun to press the battle in Henan again, and the prince of Chengjun Hongqing has acted in a very orderly manner, and he has been compared in the Yamen of Hecao, and the results are remarkable.
Tong Guowei was obviously determined to push the third master into the mud of the pond, but when he saw that the old man was quite hesitant, he hurriedly explained from the side.
"Well, I'll think about this matter again, and I'll just go for myself."
For the ability of the third master's father and son, the old man can be trusted, but when he thinks of really replacing the third master with the fourth master, it is inevitably a little unfair to the fourth master, after all, in the past three months, the fourth master is indeed doing a bad job in a down-to-earth manner, and it can be regarded as quite a success, so suddenly changing horses, the blow to the fourth master is inevitably a little big, the old man is really a little unbearable, after thinking for a while, he still can't make up his mind, and he doesn't want to ask the opinions of the rest of the scholars, so he waved his hand and gave the order to expel the guest.
"Wait for the resignation!"
Hearing what the old man said, Tong Guowei and the others didn't dare to say more, so they saluted together and retreated.
"Alas......"
Everyone had left, but the old man did not move, and stood in the empty hall for a long time, and at the end he let out a long sigh full of sorrow, and then turned around, shuffled, and walked back to the apse with heavy steps......
At three o'clock, the night was almost a little deeper, a full moon hung high in the sky, sprinkling the cold moonlight to the world, the earth was like a layer of mercury, even if it was not lit, it was also very bright, outside the West Flower Hall of the Babeile Mansion, the eighth master and others sat in the moonlight, while sipping tea, chatting casually, but obviously a little absent-minded - everyone's eyes would glance at the courtyard gate from time to time, as if there was something to look forward to.
"I've seen the eighth master!"
Waiting and waiting, just when the eighth master and others were waiting a little impatiently, I saw a figure flashing at the gate of the courtyard, and a burly man had already strode to the front, bowed to the eighth master, and made a salute in the rivers and lakes, this person's surname is Zheng, his name is Mingrui, and he is called the "Iron Arm God Ape", which is the leader of the dark forces under the seat of the eighth master, born in the rivers and lakes, famous for his boxing skills, and is one of the top masters in the rivers and lakes today.
"Excuse me, what's going on?"
Seeing that it was Zheng Mingrui, the third master's eyes immediately flashed with a trace of apprehension, but he didn't say anything, just asked indifferently.
"Back to the eighth master's words, there was a quasi-letter from the other end, saying that it had been done according to what you said, but the holy will has not yet been decided, and it is difficult to predict whether the matter will be successful."
Zheng Mingrui knew that this matter was important, and he didn't dare to play indiscriminately, so he just reported the news concisely.
"Well, I know, let's go down and rest."
As soon as he heard that the holy intention was not clear, the eighth master couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in his heart, but he didn't bring it to his face, he just waved his hand and quietly sent Zheng Mingrui away.
"Grandma is a bear, it's this season, it's not clear, is it possible that this fight will be in vain?"
The tenth master is a rough man, and when he heard that the holy intention was not clear, he became angry and scolded without any scruples.
"Tenth brother, don't talk nonsense, if this word spreads, it must not be a joke!"
Hearing that the old ten was talking nonsense there again, the ninth master was afraid that the eighth master would be surprised, so he hurriedly said a word from the side.
"Hey, yes, let's not talk about it, listen to the starling!"
The tenth master has always been the best with the ninth master, but when he saw that the ninth master was not happy, he couldn't talk nonsense anymore, and he grinned and put the decision in the hands of the eighth master.
"What do you think, sir?"
The eighth master ignored the interruption of the two younger brothers, and after pondering for a while, he raised his head and bowed his hand to Lu Chunyan cautiously.
"Although the saint has hesitation, he has no choice, the third master will return soon!"
Lu Chunyan had already calculated the overall situation in his heart, and in the face of the eighth master's question at this time, he gave an incomparably affirmative answer without thinking.
"Huh, in person? That dare to be kind, grandma is a bear, the master has long seen that the third child's muddy ball is not pleasing to the eye, and it is time to give the dog father and son a little color, hahaha......"
As soon as Lu Chunyan's voice fell, before the eighth master could say anything, the tenth master was already laughing happily.
"What the tenth brother said is that the third brother has always had a good life, and it's time for him to suffer a little!"
Although the old fourteenth has some friendship with Hongqing, but personal friendship is personal friendship, on the road to winning the heir, there is no friendship at all, if he has the opportunity to beat the third master and father and son together, he will definitely not be soft, and he hurriedly followed suit.
"Well......, that's good, that's good!"
Although Lao Jiu didn't have too many words, he couldn't help but shout good when he had a big mouth.
"Well, let's go and get ready."
The eighth master was calm, and he didn't pay attention to the nonsense of the three younger brothers, and after pondering silently for a while, he made a decision with an indifferent expression.
