Military merit is a good thing, there is no one who doesn't want it, if it is possible, Hongqing still wants to lead the army by himself, but unfortunately I want to think about it, in the final analysis, it is impossible, there is no side, just because of the situation - as far as the current situation is concerned, the third master has two in hand, and there are many elder brothers to help, although he rarely shows muscles, but if he wants to hide from the old man's eyes, there is no possibility, this is not counting the many subordinates of the third master and Hongqing, not to mention the gold-sucking monster of "Qilin Firm". , Prince Cheng's family can be said to have people, money and money, if it is really a competition for strength, it is not even the opponent of the third master, in this case, how can the old man not be jealous, and how can he rest assured that the third master father and son will meddle in the military power, if the third master invites himself to lead the troops to the battle, then he will definitely suffer from the old man's big board, not to mention the third master, even if Hongqing wants to go, there is no possibility, this is the cruel reality!

"Father Wang Mingjian, the son thinks that he is well prepared, no matter who is in charge this time, it will be a winning game, but the child thinks that although this kind of credit is good, it is not suitable to fight."

The truth is ruthless and simple, maybe think through such a reason, but it's not a simple thing, at least the third master didn't figure it out, he wanted to fight for credit with the look of who else was left to me, and he really didn't know what to say, but he didn't say it, but obviously not, if the third master really messed up with the book, the consequences must not be played, and the matter that affected the Eastern Crusade was light, if he was blacklisted by the old man, it was really called wronged, helpless, Hongqing had to give a tactful admonition.

"Huh?"

The third master thought that Hongqing would take advantage of the situation to promote himself, but he didn't expect Hongqing to answer like this, his brows immediately wrinkled, and he was not very satisfied.

Gotcha, you're really a money obsesser, dizzy!

Seeing that the third master had not woken up, Hongqing really had the urge to roll his eyes, but it was a pity that he wanted to think about it, for the sake of the safety of his little buttocks, he really didn't dare to do such a taboo action, and in desperation, he could only slander the third master in his stomach, and gave Li Minquan a hint to come forward to solve the siege.

"Lord Wang, my subordinates think that what the little prince said is very true, and the position of the commander of this expedition is still indisputable, otherwise, I am afraid that I will be framed by the villain."

As the chief strategist, what Hongqing is not good to say, Li Minquan is also not easy to say too plainly, but in the face of Hongqing's suggestive gaze, Li Minquan can only make a vague suggestion.

"Hmm......"

Hearing that Li Minquan also said that it was not appropriate to fight, the third master's high ** immediately decreased a little, but at the end he was still reluctant to give up such a big credit, but it was not easy to say that he still wanted to fight, so he made a thoughtful groan, in fact, it was just waiting for Hongqing and Li Minquan to change their views.

"If the prince doesn't want to go straight to the top, then go and fight, and if you get a military merit, you can leave a name in history, no loss!"

Seeing the third master drilling the tip of the horns, Old Master Chen couldn't look at it, but when he saw it, he pursed his lips disdainfully and sneered at the third master unceremoniously.

"Ah, this ......"

Although the military merits are good, compared to ascending the throne as the emperor, it is too far behind, this one, the third master can carry it clearly, but when he heard it, he was stunned on the spot.

"Even if the king of mediocrity will never be allowed to be the prince of the army, let alone the king of the sainthood, everyone else can be handsome, except those related to the prince!"

For the third master's recklessness, although Old Master Chen is used to it, but when he sees his such virtue, he still can't help but get angry, but he is angry, and the reason still has to be clear, so he can only patiently explain a sentence.

"......Huh, Xiao Wang understands, that's it, that's it, it's okay, it's just that who is handsome is a big deal, and you have to know it in your heart after all, and I don't know if the two gentlemen have anything to say?"

Old Master Chen has already said such a thing, the third master will not understand, the originally blazing heart suddenly cooled down, and after a long breath, this changed the topic.

"This is a great merit, the prince does not fight, but the eighth master and the fourth master are bound to fight, if it is not bad, the candidate pushed out by the eighth master must be the fourteenth master, as for the fourth master, maybe the thirteenth master who has been circled will be recommended as handsome, and there will be a fierce fight between the two."

Seeing that the third master finally gave up his unrealistic ideas, although everyone had no expression, but in fact, they were all secretly relieved in their hearts, as for who is handsome, although Hongqing has an idea, he doesn't want to say it in a hurry, and Old Master Chen, but he has an indispensable attitude, but Li Minquan is the most relaxed, and he explained with a smile.

"Well, that's right, but I'm afraid these two are not the best candidates, right?"

Although the third master has the heart to come forward to fight, but he wants to sit and watch such a great credit fall into the hands of the two competitors, but he still has great unwillingness, although he has not said it explicitly, but the tone of the question has already expressed the meaning very clearly, that is, the third master is unwilling to let the old thirteen and the old fourteen take such a credit, and intends to protect the neutral person as the handsome.

"Father Wang Mingjian, the main force of this expedition is the children of the Eight Banners, if it is not for the elder brother, it may be difficult to suppress all the people, if the emperor Ma Fa decides to go to the expedition, he will be appointed from the elder brother, and the two powers are compared, and the sons and daughters think that they should protect the thirteenth uncle."

Hongqing really knows the third master too well, as soon as the third master's words came out, Hongqing immediately guessed the plan in the third master's heart, and refused to let the third master go wildly, so he hurriedly suggested a sentence from the side.

"Old Thirteen? Why did Qing'er say that? ”

As soon as he heard Hongqing's suggestion, the third master couldn't help but be stunned, looked at Hongqing suspiciously, raised his eyebrows, and asked with some displeasure.

"Back to the words of the father, the fourteenth uncle has been in the military department for a long time, the prestige has been established, the one who is missing, the military merits are also, if he is allowed to get his hands, it will become a big disaster in the future, this must not be prevented, again, the thirteenth uncle is suffering from calamity now, can save it from fire and water, it is a matter of kindness, although the thirteenth uncle is stubborn, but he is a person who knows how to repay the grace, and at this time he is dripping with water, or he may be able to get a spring in the future, and the child has not visited the thirteenth uncle privately for most of the past half a year, and he has already made an agreement, if he gets rid of this misfortune, he will not be with the fourth uncle again."

Hongqing had already calculated in his heart, no matter how unhappy the third master was, it was impossible for him to change his original intention, so he explained the Tao in detail.

"Promise? Hmmm......"

The third master didn't pay much attention to Hongqing's whereabouts during this time, and he didn't know the interaction between Hongqing and the thirteenth master, and when he heard Hongqing's explanation, he was actually very uneasy in his heart, no, the relationship between the old thirteenth and the fourth master was not cultivated in a day or two, and the third master didn't believe that this so-called agreement could have much binding force, but seeing that Hongqing said it so surely, the third master was not easy to oppose for a while, so he frowned and put on a deep groan again.

"Father rest assured, the child does not believe that this agreement can be more binding, but the child has another plan, so to speak, the water division that is about to be formed this time is to be in charge of the Guangdong Navy Admiral Yamen, that Sun Mingxu, Sun Admiral is not a slave under the child's door, but the child single-handedly put up, speaking of which is a child's people, and many sailors are also generally born in the navigation school under the child's name, such a sailor, not easy for others to buy, as for the main force of the Eastern Expeditionary Army, After this battle, although the thirteenth uncle can get great merit, but he will resolutely continue to take charge of the army, and it is a matter of time before he is transferred back to Beijing. ”

As soon as the third master's groaning posture came out, Hongqing really couldn't cry or laugh in his heart, and he had no choice but to tell everything about his inner secrets.

"Wang Ye Mingjian, his subordinates think that what the little prince said is right, compared to the ambition of the fourteenth elder brother, the thirteenth elder brother is obviously much more credible, the prince can do his best to protect the thirteenth elder brother, even if he can't accept his heart, he will definitely be able to bury a thorn in the heart of the fourth master, and over time, it is not difficult to gather the thirteenth elder brother for use, so the subordinates think it is feasible."

Li Minquan knew that the third master was worried about raising tigers, and he wanted to give advice, but unfortunately he didn't have time to perform, he was preempted by Hongqing, he didn't dare to compete with Hongqing, but it was okay to echo the previous one.

"Well, Master, what do you think?"

With Hongqing's explanation, the uneasiness in the third master's heart was reduced a lot, but he was still not in a hurry to make a decision, but cautiously threw the problem to Old Master Chen again.

"If it is a land battle, no one can compete with the fourteenth elder brother, but this time it is an expedition overseas, and the thirteenth master is handsome, if His Majesty decides, or both, the prince pushes it, and it will be done."

Old Master Chen's vision is not comparable to Li Minquan, and a fact has been pointed out in a few words, that is, if the third master does not guarantee the thirteenth master, he will only cheapen the fourteenth master for nothing.

"Well, that's fine, then it's decided, the day after tomorrow in the morning, this king should try his best to ensure that the thirteenth brother is in command and goes out!"

The third master is not a stupid person after all, as soon as Old Master Chen mentioned this, he already understood the key to the matter, so he no longer hesitated, and hurriedly made up his mind. "The father is wise, and the child should be attached to the tail." Hearing this, the third master finally made a decision, Hongqing's tense heartstrings were immediately loosened, and he hurriedly praised him, but in fact, he sighed secretly in his heart, it was not easy, it took so much tongue to finally get things done, as for whether it will be successful or not, then you have to ride a donkey to read the record book, and take a look......
