Chapter 987: The Fox Crossing the River (2)
"Erchen knocks to see Huang Ama!"
Sure enough, as Hongqing expected, Li Dequan's oracle is one, that is, Emperor Chengde has been invited, in this regard, although Hongqing is quite unhappy in his heart, but he still dared to go to the imperial city after a little delay at the palace gate, and he has been allowed to enter the mouth, accompanied by Li Dequan to the palace of nourishing the heart, just walked up to the main hall, and saw that in the huge hall, except for the Chengde Emperor who sat on the top, there was no one else, and the mind was in a flash, and it was already clear that the Chengde Emperor put out such a separate play, however, he didn't care, he just grabbed the royal front with a calm expression, and it was a big gift to pay homage in a proper manner.
"Excuse me."
Facing Hongqing's gift, Emperor Chengde didn't say much kindly, just raised his hand expressionlessly and called out indifferently.
"Xie Huang Amalonen, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
Since Emperor Chengde called out, the three shouts of long-lived thanksgiving etiquette is the proper meaning of the title, but there is nothing to say.
"How's the military reform going?"
In the past year, because Hongqing has not interfered in court affairs, the life of Emperor Chengde has been quite smooth, in government affairs, although far from making great achievements, but the decree is basically unimpeded, the authority of the emperor can be guaranteed, and the majesty of Emperor Chengde has also been restored to the old and young.
"If you return to Huang Ama, all things are still going well, and now, the newly established institutions have begun to operate normally, but the construction of military academies in Xi'an and Jinling is still in progress, and it is expected that it will be completed by April next year, and normal enrollment will begin at the end of June."
Although Hongqing did not let Emperor Chengde interfere in military innovation, he would have a chapter every month, detailing the progress of military innovation, and occasionally put forward some unimportant requests, which was considered to be the face of Emperor Chengde in charge of the situation, in this case, how could Emperor Chengde not know the specific progress of military innovation, there is no doubt that Emperor Chengde was obviously asking knowingly, in this regard, although Hongqing was very tired in his heart, but he did not bring it to his face, but explained it respectfully.
"Well, Qing'er is doing things, I can still trust it."
Emperor Chengde also knew that it was difficult to intervene in the reform of military affairs, and the reason why he asked was just to express his concern.
"The sons should work hard for it, and they will never dare to live up to the trust of the emperor Amma."
Emperor Chengde didn't plan to ask in detail, and Hongqing didn't bother to say much, so he just dealt with it respectfully.
"I'm calling you to come here today, just for one thing, well, let's put it this way, Shandong Provincial Inspector Yu Shi An Chengmin has been impeached for the impeachment of the Nine Gates Admiral Geng Sanbiao's appeasement is not effective, so that the security of the Beijing Division is difficult, I have stayed in the middle and not sent it, however, I am afraid that the ministers will have a lot of objections to this, how should Qing'er see this matter?"
Emperor Chengde was not a very patient person, the humility and generosity in the early years were just disguises, since he ascended the throne, he has already revealed his true form, no, just a few words of greeting, and he has tried his best to show up.
"Emperor Ama Mingjian, the ministers thought that An Chengmin was just a clever remark to invite merit, which is really insignificant."
Hearing that Emperor Chengde deliberately said that the matter was so serious, Hongqing's heart immediately rolled over with a burst of anger, and he didn't bother to embellish it, and unceremoniously put a big hat of "grandstanding" on An Chengmin.
"Well, having said that, it's just that I'm afraid that everyone will be making money, if the bullet chapter is big, it is not good for the stability of the court situation, and it is not a good thing for Geng Sanbiao himself, I am afraid that it is not a good thing, after all, I have to be cautious, what do you think?"
Emperor Chengde was determined to remove Geng Sanbiao from the position of Admiral of the Nine Gates this time, for this reason, he spent a lot of effort to deploy all kinds of matters, although he did not expect to be able to push Geng Sanbiao to the end, but he categorically could not tolerate the safety of the imperial city being controlled by Hongqing, it was out of this plan, even though Hongqing had already expressed his intention to protect Geng Sanbiao, but Emperor Chengde refused to back down, which hinted at it in words.
"Huang Ama is very worried, however, the sage often said: reason is not clear, things are not clear, like An Chengmin, with the identity of an official, it is his duty to hear the wind and do things, but it does not follow this to determine that what he said is the truth, right and wrong must ultimately rely on the facts to speak, therefore, the ministers think that this matter still needs to be carefully considered."
Although Old Master Chen had already proposed to back down, Hongqing had not yet made up his mind, and at this time, he was unwilling to let Emperor Chengde go wildly, and it was inevitable to argue with reason.
"Well...... Qing'er is right, let's see how the ministers react to this matter, it's okay, I'm tired, so let's go."
Emperor Chengde called Hongqing today, just thinking about testing Hongqing's reaction, and did not expect Hongqing to obediently agree to his own request, seeing Hongqing's resolute attitude, he didn't want to talk about it anymore, but seeing that he nodded with a pretended groan, and after a few perfunctory words, he immediately issued an order to expel the guest.
"Emperor Ama Shengming, the sons and ministers retire."
As the saying goes, if you don't speculate for more than half a sentence, Emperor Chengde doesn't want to talk about it anymore, and Hongqing is too lazy to talk to him, so Emperor Chengde called back, and immediately bowed down and praised him, and then turned around, withdrew from the Palace of Nourishing Heart, and returned to the Summer Palace by carriage.
"Your Majesty."
As soon as Hongqing exited the main hall, he saw that Li Minquan had already turned out of the apse, walked quickly to the front of the palace, bowed down, and humbly called out.
"Well, how?"
Hearing the sound, Emperor Chengde, who was bowing his head and meditating, immediately raised his head, glanced at Li Minquan with a slight frown, and asked a sentence with no beginning or end in a slightly cold voice.
"Back to Your Majesty's words, Weichen thinks that Prince Ren's heart is quite strong to protect Geng Sanbiao, and if you want to make him submit, I am afraid you have to start from many aspects."
Although Emperor Chengde asked vaguely, Li Minquan knew what Emperor Chengde was going to ask as soon as he heard it, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly gave a general judgment.
"Well...... that's the case, and then I'll see that it's done."
Emperor Chengde frowned and thought for a moment, but he was still unwilling to just give up, so he gritted his teeth and ordered in a gloomy tone.
"Yes, Weichen retired."
Li Minquan wanted to suppress Hongqing, and he would not have any objections to Emperor Chengde's decision, so he hurriedly bowed down and agreed to the promise, and then hurriedly withdrew from the Heart Cultivation Palace, and went to arrange relevant matters without mentioning it......
"Sir."
In the back garden of the Shunjun Palace, Lu Chunyan, who was dressed in a white robe, stood wordlessly in front of the window lattice on the second floor of Linchi Pavilion, looking up at the sky with a slight frown, the wind blew, and the wide robe swept out of the layers of waves.
"The prince has such a look, I think His Majesty must have a secret message."
Hearing the sound, Lu Chunyan slowly turned around, and only glanced at Hongxi, and he had already broken through his intentions.
"Mr. Gaoming, Li Minquan and Master Li just left, saying that Huang Ama has made up his mind, and he wants Xiao Wang to do it with all his might."
After nearly a year of getting along, Hongxi has long been accustomed to Lu Chunyan's materiality like a god, and he is not surprised that he can guess the root of it, and he replied with a smile.
"Well, in that case, the prince just has to let it go."
Lu Chunyan didn't pay attention to Hongxi's sycophants, and suggested with an indifferent face.
"Mr. is right, Xiao Wang also thinks the same way, but, well, just about the result, Xiao Wang is quite a little confused, I don't know what Mr. can teach me?"
After nearly a year of integration, relying on the power of hundreds of official files, Hongxi has successfully collected the remaining power of the eighth master and others for his own use, and he can't help but so, and has also placed a lot of people in the household department, and its strength has reached the peak of history, and he is full of ambition, and he was thinking of finding a chance to fight with Hongqing, and now, since Emperor Chengde wants to make trouble, he is happy to cooperate with the trick, but when it comes to the results, Hongxi still can't help but have some undertones in his heart, After obviously hesitating for a moment, he still asked where the doubts in his heart were.
"What's so hard to guess about this, unless Prince Ren wants to make a shocking wave, otherwise, there is only a retreat to go, as far as the current situation is concerned, stability, Prince Ren is beneficial, chaos, then all kings can benefit from it, with their wisdom, when they can't see this, the person who worries about it is nothing more than the feelings of his henchmen, from this point of view, keeping Geng Sanbiao is the bottom limit of Prince Ren, as for the position of the Admiral of the Nine Gates, I think he won't care too much."
Lu Chunyan has already deduced the overall situation, and he has made a calculation in his heart, and when he says it, his words are full of confidence.
"Oh? In this way, if we start it early and make a big fuss, we should be able to solve its evasive strategy, I don't know if Mr. thinks it is feasible? ”
As soon as he heard Lu Chunyan's words, Hongxi's brows immediately raised, and he continued to ask with a look of anticipation.
"It's okay to give it a try, whether it succeeds or not, it's a good thing, the prince just has to let it go, with the support of His Majesty, the result will not go anywhere."
Although Hongxi didn't say it explicitly, Lu Chunyan knew that he was already eyeing the position of the Admiral of the Nine Gates that was about to be vacated, but in Lu Chunyan's opinion, the hope of success in this matter was almost zero, and he didn't bother to tell the matter, so he just looked indifferent.
"Okay, Xiao Wang will arrange it."
Hongxi originally wanted to ask how to get the position of Admiral of the Nine Gates into his hands, but after thinking about it, it was too early to say this, so he changed his mind, explained the scene with a smile, and then rushed down to the attic and went to arrange the relevant matters without mentioning it.
