Chapter 711: Big and Small (4)
"Virtuous nephew, don't worry, don't worry, come, sit down and say, sit down and say, can't you do it for your uncle?"
Although he was fed up with Hongqing's trickiness and difficulty, the fourth master really didn't dare to let Hongqing act wantonly in the household department, and when he saw Hongqing about to leave, he immediately panicked, and got up in a hurry, grabbed Hongqing's arm, and persuaded him with a smile.
"Fourth Uncle Haihan, the little nephew is such a stinky temper, I can't see the villain doing it, alas, Huang Ma Fa has been blamed many times, but the little nephew still repeatedly commits crimes, let the fourth uncle see the joke, ashamed, ashamed!"
Hongqing didn't really want to leave, the fourth master only stopped him, and he immediately sat back in his place, and his words were extraordinarily polite, and his self-criticism was really better than singing.
"It's okay, it's okay, it's all for the sake of the society, the virtuous nephew has always been jealous and hateful, the government and the opposition are full of admiration, and the uncle is also very admired, that's it, don't talk about this, the virtuous nephew has a proposal, and he said bluntly, rest assured, whether it succeeds or not, the uncle will give the virtuous nephew an explanation."
Knowing that Hongqing is going to go or not is putting on a show, but the fourth master has no choice, just because he can't afford the consequences of Hongqing's trouble, and he can only focus on reducing losses in his eyes.
"Okay, the fourth uncle is so generous, the little nephew will thank you in advance, the fourth uncle, you are busy with official business, the little nephew will make a long story short, Fujian, Zhejiang, Liangguang and Hubei Wuqing officials deliberately conceal the summer income, the impact is extremely bad, the palm seal of the five divisions must be replaced, if not, it is difficult to explain to the court, I don't know what the fourth uncle thinks?"
Since the fourth master wanted to bargain, Hongqing naturally would not be very polite, and after pretending to thank him, he immediately opened his mouth and made a request.
"The virtuous nephew is exaggerating, although Mu Rong and others are at fault first, but it is just a negligence, the crime is not to be deposed, people are not sages, who can be without fault, according to the uncle's opinion, it is enough to give a punishment, if it is really heavy, it is not in line with the law."
Hearing Hongqing open his mouth so widely, the fourth master's brows were wrinkled, and there was no side, among the fourteen Qing Officials Division of the Household Department, excluding Mu Rong, the eighth master's disciple, the fourth master could really control only eight, four of which were Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi and Hubei, if these five Qing Officials were given to Zhao Shenqiao, the fourth master's power in the household department would be mostly gone, and at that time, the fourth master, the prince of the management department, would not be elevated. It is impossible to follow Hongqing's will so easily.
"The fourth uncle's words are wrong, such a junior is so derelict in his duties, and he almost missed a major military event, even if he cut off his head, it is also a matter of deserved, and now it is considered light to just remove the palm print, if it is according to the little nephew's past temperament, he would have taken down these fools from the hall a long time ago, how can he be exempted from his functions."
The fourth master wanted to be confused, but Hongqing didn't intend to just indulge like this, and with a wave of his hand, he rejected the fourth master's proposal very politely.
"The virtuous nephew's words are too arbitrary, as far as the state of affairs is concerned, although there is some negligence in the palm seals, it has not caused too many evil consequences, and it is really difficult to convince the public to deal with it like this, and it is very inappropriate for the uncle."
When it comes to his own foundation, it is impossible for the fourth master to make too many concessions, even if Hongqing has shown signs of madness, but the fourth master still insists on his opinion.
"Why did the fourth uncle say this? What is the worst thing to do? Hey, these bastards made the fourth uncle have to move the capital for the military supply on the occasion of the court meeting, this is already a big disapproval of lying and bullying the king, how can it be said that the evil result is not big, the little nephew doesn't understand, what is the purpose of the fourth uncle's death? Could it be that these children concealed the report, and the fourth uncle knew about it in advance? ”
As soon as the fourth master insisted, Hongqing immediately changed his face, and unceremoniously waved a big hat of "lying and bullying the king", making it clear that he wanted to coerce the fourth master to sign the alliance under the city.
"Ridiculous, how can this king be such a person, hum! What does this matter have to do with this king! ”
Seeing Hongqing so arrogant, the fourth master was also angry, his face sank, and his voice scolded coldly.
Hey, you old boy, dare not do it, play very fake and high in front of the master, the goods of the dog's day!
The fourth master is so tough, Hongqing's face is immediately full of dark clouds, but at the end he still didn't get mad, there is no other way, although the fourth master is afraid that things will make a big fuss, Hongqing also doesn't want to be like this, the so-called hemp pole big wave is afraid of both ends is such a reason, but if Hongqing himself is not good to say, it doesn't hurt to let Zhao Shenqiao say it.
"The two princes, the lower officials have some immature thoughts, I don't know if to talk about it?"
The two giants of the imperial court are fighting hard there, Rao is Zhao Shenqiao is also a dignified member of the imperial court, but in his eyes, he is shocked, he didn't want to come out at this time, but Hongqing has already given a code, Zhao Shenqiao can't sit idly by, so he can only open his mouth hard.
"If Zhao Shangshu has anything to say, just say it directly."
Zhao Shenqiao's appearance is the result of Hongqing's hints, and it is the proper meaning of the question to support the previous one, but there is nothing unusual.
"Speak!"
The fourth master has long known that there is a hookup between Zhao Shenqiao and Hongqing, and he knows that what he says must be on Hongqing's side, the problem is that the fourth master really needs someone to stand up and break the deadlock at this time, so as not to really make the situation bigger, because of this, even if he is extremely disgusted with Zhao Shenqiao, he can't help but give him a chance to speak.
"Xie two princes are lenient, the lower officials think that although it is a fact that the five Qing officials concealed the Xia Jin, but the reasons may be different, if a rod overturns a boat of people, it seems that there is something wrong, of course, if it is not punished, but it is difficult to have an explanation to the imperial court, according to the lower officials, Zhejiang, Guangdong, Hubei three Qing officials accounted for the largest proportion of the amount of concealment, if it is necessary to be punished, these three divisions are the first to bear the brunt, as for Fujian, Guangxi two divisions can be punished slightly, this lower official is shallow to hear, but also ask the two princes to make a clear judgment."
Since the fourth master and Hongqing both agreed one after another, Zhao Shenqiao didn't have any more politeness, bowed down, and slowly gave a compromise plan.
"What Zhao Shangshu said is pertinent, this king thinks it is feasible, fourth uncle, you see."
It is obviously impossible to take down the five Qing officials in one go, this point, Hongqing knows it very well, in his opinion, it is a victory to win three or two, in view of this, he will not have any objections to Zhao Shenqiao's proposal, besides, what Zhao Shenqiao said was originally from his Hongqing's instructions, how could he oppose his own reason.
"No, Hubei is a granary, most of the grain and straw on the western line of transshipment come from here, Chang Mingyi (Hubei Qing Officials Division Zhangyin Langzhong) This person has always been capable, and it has always been safe to transfer all the grain roads, if it is suddenly changed, once there is a mistake, I am afraid that there is a risk of delaying the military aircraft, this should not be discussed."
When it comes to such a field now, the fourth master knows that if he doesn't give Hongqing a little sweetness, I'm afraid that things will be difficult, but do you want him to accept Hongqing's conditions in full, not to mention the size of the loss, that is, he can't pass this level in his heart, so he has to get some back first, so as to avoid a defeat.
"What the fourth uncle said is also quite reasonable, even so, Chang Mingyi will give a punishment, as for Mu Rong and Shen Qichang, they will be removed from their positions in the palm seal Langzhong, and they will be demoted two levels as punishment, and the rest of the departments involved in the case will be recorded once each, Zhao Shangshu, can there be a suitable candidate among the two Qing officials in Guangdong and Zhejiang?"
Hongqing didn't think about forcing the fourth master to death, and he was able to take down the two important Qing officials in Guangdong and Zhejiang, and then count the second treasurer Wailang who had arrived before, it could already be regarded as a big victory, although there was still some gap from the predetermined goal of completely leveraging the foundation of the fourth master, but it was enough to support Zhao Shenqiao's good life in the household department, in view of this, Hongqing did not plan to argue with the fourth master anymore, and made a conclusion with a decisive decision, and did not wait for the fourth master to say, so he handed over the right to recommend people to Zhao Shenqiao.
"Back to the prince's words, Miao Kexin, a member of the Guangdong Qing Bureau, has outstanding ability and is safe, and he should be able to seal Langzhong for the division; In addition, Hunan Qing officials Shi Lang Zhong Sheng Cheng Hao is loyal to the country, and he can take over the post of Zhejiang Qing Officials Shi Yin Lang Zhong. ”
The question of the candidate was discussed yesterday, and at this time, Zhao Shenqiao replied without delay, and without waiting for the fourth master to react, he had already given a sincere suggestion.
"Well, Zhao Shangshu is an old man who has become a country, and the selection of the person given is not bad, this king looks feasible, fourth uncle, what do you think?"
Hongqing is actually not familiar with Miao and Sheng, that is, after Zhao Shenqiao reported to the list yesterday, Hongqing made the "sharp knife" do some relevant understanding, but it is only limited to some programmatic information, far from knowing the roots, but the person is Zhao Shenqiao's own use, Hongqing doesn't care, what he wants is Zhao Shenqiao's allegiance, as for the petty officials under him, Hongqing doesn't care, because of this, no matter what Zhao Shenqiao proposes, Hongqing will not have any opinions.
"Hmmm......"
Seeing Zhao Shenqiao and Hongqing playing double reeds there, the fourth master was really depressed, but he was under the eaves, but he couldn't allow him not to bow his head, but he didn't want to just be soft, so he just didn't say anything.
"Since the fourth uncle has no other objections, then please write down the document first, okay?"
Hongqing wants to be affordable, no matter whether the fourth master is happy or not, seeing that the fourth master has not expressed his position for a long time, he refuses to give up, and he urges without any scruples.
"Humph!"
In the face of Hongqing's aggressive posture, the anger in the fourth master's heart was already burning violently, and his face twitched fiercely for a while, as if he wanted to speak, but after struggling for a long time, he didn't say why, and at the end, he snorted heavily, straightened his waist, got up, and dragged his feet towards the copywriting office......
