Chapter 222: If you want to make trouble, make a big fuss (2)

"If Lord He is embarrassed, Ben Baylor will not be reluctant, just act as if Ben Baylor didn't say it."

Although it was very necessary to get words out of He Chong's mouth, but Hongqing didn't want to show too eagerness, this time he saw He Chong look at him with a surprised face, so he smiled indifferently, waved his hand very kindly, and said a word of indifference.

"Ah, no, no, the little prince has any orders and please speak up, but whoever is able to do it, will never dare to resign!"

Over the years, Hongqing has been invincible everywhere, and there are countless people who have fallen off the horse, and he has already become a star-like figure in today's imperial court, but poor He Chong can't be a mere nine-grade sesame official, even if he has always been bold, how dare he say not to help in front of Hongqing, this hearing Hongqing say this, I can't help but be a little panicked, and the body that was already bowing suddenly dropped a little shorter, and I was busy expressing my attitude.

"In this way, then there will be a lot of work, come here, show Lord He a seat!"

Although He Chong had already expressed his attitude, Hongqing was not in a hurry to say what he wanted He Chong to do, but waved his hand and politely gave He Chong a seat.

"Wow!"

As soon as Hongqing's voice fell, the palace guards who had their own guards on the side respectfully agreed, moved a round stool, and rested it on the left side of the study, and then all withdrew from the study, leaving only He Chong and Hongqing to play alone.

"Thank you for the seat!"

He Chong was bold in the end, and since he had already agreed to help Hongqing, he let go of his previous restraints, and after thanking him humbly, he didn't have any more hypocrisy, lifted the hem of his robe, sat down, bowed slightly, and quietly waited for Hongqing's question.

"Master He is in the autumn trial, so I think I am quite familiar with the autumn decision?"

Seeing that He Chong was able to adjust from the panic so quickly, Hongqing glanced at him in his heart, but he didn't show it, but asked in a flat voice.

"Back to the little prince's words, the lower officials are not trusted by Lu Langzhong in the department, and most of the affairs in the department are not very hands-on, and they only do some small things, and they dare not be familiar with it."

Hearing Hongqing ask about the ministry affairs, He Chong's face immediately turned red, and he responded bitterly.

"Well, have you ever heard of slaughtering a white goose?"

Hongqing had known that He Chong was not very satisfactory in the ministry, and when he saw his self-admitted, he would not feel strange, and he did not continue to ask the root cause, but nodded quietly, and pointed out the topic directly.

"Ah......h

Although Hongqing's words were light, they fell on He Chong's ears like thunder, but when he saw his pupils shrink suddenly, his face turned pale in an instant.

"In this way, Lord He should know something about this, maybe tell Ben Baylor how many white geese are in the autumn duel the day after tomorrow, and what are them?"

Hongqing didn't leave He Chong the slightest respite, and didn't care how shocked he was, nodded, and asked on his own.

"This ......"

There are naturally a lot of things about slaughtering white geese in the criminal department, but they are all done in private, although there are legends in the market, but no one has ever mentioned this matter in the official face, at this time, when he heard Hongqing ask such a question, He Chong's heart suddenly became a mess, not for anything else, just because he himself did not collect less money, although he himself has never done such filthy deeds, but in the autumn decision, if you want not to be completely squeezed out of the officialdom, you can't fail to collect money.

"Is Lord He very difficult?"

Now that the main topic has been broken, Hongqing naturally can't make He Chong retreat, because this matter is very important, if He Chong really makes perfunctory words, he can't say it, he should kill it, Hongqing will not have anything soft.

"......Huh, the little prince is clear, the lower officials only know some trivial things about this matter, and the hidden behind it is really not something that the lower officials can hear, this one, please forgive the little prince."

After He Chong's face changed white and red for a long time, he finally made up his mind, let out a sigh of relief, bowed down, and replied cautiously.

"It doesn't matter, Lord He can say as much as he knows, and Ben Baylor has his own judgment."

Hearing that He Chong agreed to cooperate, Hongqing also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't show it.

"So that the little prince learned that although the lower officials were not in charge of affairs in the office, there were still a few friends, and they had heard a little about the slaughter of the white goose, and there were three white geese among the twelve people who were decided in the autumn of the day after tomorrow, and they were replaced by Deng Xiang, the second son of Deng Mingda, the shopkeeper of Nancheng's 'Deng Ji Silk Village', who committed homicide, Chen Shutong, the son of the Chen family, a big family in Tongzhou, and Sun Miao, the son of Sun Qishi, the shopkeeper of the 'Sun Ji Timber Shop'.

Now that he has decided to serve Hongqing, He Chong has no reservations, and reports the inside information he knows one by one like pouring beans into a bamboo tube.

Hey, it's really dark to the extreme, there are three white geese out of twelve, and the eighth is really daring!

The reason why Hongqing knew about the slaughter of the white goose in the Criminal Department was completely from the previous life, and he was only suspicious of the letter in his heart, so he just looked for He Chong to find out about it with the hope of what happened, if he didn't wait to find a gap here, Hongqing would have to find another way, and now that he had He Chong's quasi-letter, the big stone hanging in Hongqing's heart finally fell to the ground, but he didn't show too much excitement, so he just nodded indifferently and did not comment on He Chong's words.

"The lower officials are in the autumn trial office, in order to avoid the suspicion of others, they also took a few copies of the money, but they really dare not deceive the little prince, the lower officials themselves have it, how to deal with it, the lower officials dare not defend themselves."

Seeing that Hongqing didn't speak, He Chong's heart was empty for no reason, his face turned red, his head was lowered, and he confessed his guilt.

"It's okay, it's a little thing, Lord He doesn't need to worry about it, well, please keep your mouth shut about what you talked about today, after the incident, Ben Belle will definitely have a report."

Everything that should be understood has already been understood, and Hongqing doesn't plan to bother more, so he commanded with the intention of chasing away customers.

"Xia Guan is willing to go to the soup for the little prince, and he will never give up!"

Although He Chong has not been very proud of the officialdom over the years, he is not a stupid person in the end, how could he let go of the only opportunity to hug Hongqing's thigh at such a time, and fell to the ground with a grunt, knocking his head a few times in a row, and expressing his loyalty in fear.

"Well, I'm afraid it's not good for you to have this heart, just follow Mingtao and them to do something first, if there is a fate in the future, it is not impossible for Ben Baylor to take you under the door."

Seeing that He Chong was quite shrewd, Hongqing was quite satisfied, but he didn't plan to take him into his disciples immediately, but was going to investigate it for a while.

"Yes, the lower officials will obey the orders of the little prince!"

Hongqing is now the most popular figure in the third generation of the Heavenly Family, and he can get his personal consent, He Chong is not very satisfied, and hurriedly thanked him gratefully.

"That's fine, let's go, don't let people notice your whereabouts."

Hongqing didn't say anything more, and after a simple order, he immediately served tea and sent it off.

"See the little prince!"

Soon after He Chong left, Cao Yanshan and Chen Ize walked in from the study together, and faced Hongqing, who was sitting on the top, and made a big salute together.

"Excuse me, Ming Tao and Zi Song, from now on, keep an eye on the criminal department for Ben Baylor, and report any news immediately, and in addition, early the morning after tomorrow, prepare more manpower at the entrance of the vegetable market, in case there is a change, just go busy, and Ben Baylor will go home first."

Although Hongqing has a plan in his heart, but the stakes are very high, he does not dare to make a decision lightly, after all, he has to persuade the third master to make a number, this is over, Hongqing does not want to stay longer, after a few simple words, he got up, led Li Minxing and others to rush back in the direction of his palace......

The late autumn sky is dark early, it is only four o'clock in the hour, the sun has already set the mountain, leaving only a touch of afterglow, rendering the clouds on the horizon as red as blood, the third master who has been immersed in the farm outside the city for a whole day finally returned to his house in a hurry, although the soles of his feet are full of mud, and the official robe on his body is also spotted, but the spirit of the third master is excellent, not for anything else, just because the planned overseas grain planting base is basically ready, just waiting for the spring to be sown and cultivated, As soon as he thought of being able to take this kind of great cause in his own hands, the third master felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart, and he was so interested that he couldn't even take care of dinner, so he led Li Minquan, who went to the farm with him, and went straight to the study in the inner courtyard, planning to explore and study the promotion of overseas grain seeds again to ensure that nothing went wrong.

"The child knocks on his father!"

The third master and Li Minquan turned out of the screen while discussing, and immediately saw that Hongqing and Old Master Chen were already sitting inside, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and before he could ask a question, he saw that Hongqing had already gotten up, grabbed a few steps to the front, and made a big salute in a proper manner.

"Excuse me, Qing'er, this is ......"

Seeing that Hongqing and Old Master Chen were there, it was clear that there was a big deal to discuss, and the third master couldn't help but be a little confused, after all, the household turmoil had just passed less than a month, and all forces were licking their wounds at this time, so there should be no big storms.

"Father Qi, around noon today, Heda sent the news, saying that the son of Henan Governor Rongzhu and a few friends had a conflict with Prince Yu's second son Bao Shou in the 'Wanhualou' last night, and was locked up in the prison by the people of the Nine Gate Admiral Yamen, the child did not dare to slack off, and went to invite the sixteenth uncle to come forward to negotiate, but unexpectedly, in front of the sixteenth uncle, Mu Ning and others were transferred to the prison of the Criminal Department.

The third master asked, Hongqing would not hide anything, so he explained the reason in detail, but ignored the matter at the other end of the small skewer alley.

"What? Is there such a thing? Tuoheqi Na'an dares to be so rude! ”

As soon as he heard Hongqing say this, the third master's face immediately became a little unpleasant, but he just stared at Tuo Heqi's presumptuousness, but he didn't think about the strangeness behind this matter.

Dizzy, if you really want to be rude and rude, why do you need to come forward, we can play that guy to death!

As soon as he heard the third master's words, Hongqing's head immediately grew a few times, and he was really a little crying and laughing, but it was really not good to directly point out the fault of the third master for a while, and in desperation, he could only turn his attention to Old Master Chen for help.
