Chapter Ninety-Four: The Secret Fight in the Palace of Nourishing the Heart (2)
The household is good, there is a lot of oil and water, and the power is also great, but unfortunately I can't go, the water is too deep, and the relationship is too big, and I have to finish playing if I am not careful!
Although the old man's words are joking, but what can be brought to Hongqing is a great pressure, a bad response, all the plans have always been in danger of falling into the void, at this delicate juncture, Hongqing's brain has been running rapidly, and in an instant, he has analyzed it powerfully, and finally decided not to go to the household, not that he dislikes the household department is not much oil and water, but Hongqing knows that the household department will have several major storms to be staged in the next few years, whether it is the debt or the money law dispute, it is some tricky work, or even the flag rectification that will soon be put on the agenda has a lot to do with the household department, once the household department is touched, these troubles are afraid that there is nowhere to hide, and even the place to move is difficult to find, this is obviously not a situation that Hongqing is happy to see.
"Back to Huang Ma Fa, the grandson thinks that what the uncles said is very true, the so-called no accumulation of steps to thousands of miles, the grandson is still young, the financial world is probably not the grandson can deal with at this time, I am willing to start from the Ministry of Engineering, if you succeed, you can share the worries for the Huang Ma Fa."
It is obviously not okay to directly refuse the old man's kindness, if you want to say that you have no confidence, it will also not be successful, but this is not difficult for Hongqing, and euphemistically borrowed the words of the uncles to refuse the old man's arrangement, and put forward his own requirements.
"Well, okay, I'm ready, I'll give you my will."
The old man Kangxi took Hongqing to the household department on a whim, but had other plans, but Hongqing was willing to go to the lowest-ranked Ministry of Engineering in the six departments, and the old man was not reluctant, and he accepted it very happily.
"Third child, tell me what's going on over there in Shandong, huh?"
After dealing with Hongqing's reward issue, the old man did not let Hongqing retreat, but motioned for Hongqing to stand beside him, and then, his face suddenly turned solemn, his eyes swept to the third master who had not yet calmed down from the shock, and asked in a cold tone.
"Back to the emperor's words, the son of the minister of the will, all the way did not dare to delay, until Jining, originally wanted to temporarily transfer grain from the Hecao Yamen by will, in order to meet the needs of the disaster, but unexpectedly that Rufu several times delayed, actually caused the disaster relief is almost unsustainable, fortunately, the 'Qilin firm' is generous and righteous, allocated 10,000 taels of silver, and purchased grain from the wealthy families in Jining, so as to solve this crisis......"
The third master was thinking about the old man's intention to reward Hongqing so much, and he couldn't help but panic when he heard the old man call his name, but fortunately, he had already prepared for the affairs of Shandong, although he was panicked, but he saw that he walked out quickly, bowed down, and selectively described all the things that happened in Shandong, hidden the hands and feet of the eighth master and others, and focused on disaster relief.
"Huang Ama, Lang Lang Qiankun, there is such an evil thing, this sincerity is unbearable, the son thinks that just by relying on Rufu and others, there is no courage for this, there must be a root cause behind it, it must be thoroughly investigated, in order to find out the truth, the third brother can solve this case, it can be the main trial, and please ask the emperor Ama to judge!"
As soon as the third master's voice fell, the prince jumped out impatiently, and talked a lot with righteous indignation on his face, and his decision was nothing more than to ask the third master and the eighth master to go to the ring together, because no matter who wins or loses, it is a good harvest for the prince, and it is best for both sides to fight and lose, which is even more worthy of the prince's mind.
"Huang Ama, the son thinks that what the prince's brother said is very true, such a shocking case, if it is not thoroughly investigated, how can it be explained to the victims of the vain death, and the shallow view of this son and the minister also ask the emperor Ama to judge."
As soon as the prince came out like this, the fourth master was moved by his intentions, and he had the heart to go out to echo it, but he was worried that the holy will would be difficult to understand, so he quietly gave a secret signal to the old thirteen who was standing quietly on the side, and then saw the old thirteen striding out from the side and echoed the prince in a loud voice.
"Huang Ama Mingjian, the sons also thought that this case had to be investigated in detail, but there were no rules to make a circle, according to the law of our dynasty, such a major case investigation and trial should be separated, therefore, the sons of the emperor implored the emperor Ama to issue an edict, and the three divisions will try it, with the national law."
The old fourteen has always been a mortal enemy with the old thirteen, and when he saw the old thirteen jump out, he was not far behind, so he flashed out from the side, saying that the law was the criterion, but in fact he was resolutely opposed to the case being tried by the third master.
"Huang Ama, the son thought that what the fourteenth brother said was very true, the third brother went for more than two months, running in all directions for the disaster relief, not to mention the hard work, and there are Rufu and other villains who are troubled from it, presumably it is extremely tired, and it must not be pressed by heavy burdens.
Of course, the ninth master does not want the third master to be responsible for the investigation of the case, not for anything else, just because the ninth master can't trust the third master at all, don't look at the two sides have reached a consensus in private, but it is all goods that cannot be put on the table, besides, there is no certificate for this transaction, in case the third master is ruthless to investigate, just rely on the evidence he has in his hand, or may hold, the eighth master is afraid that he will not be able to eat and walk, this kind of risk, the ninth master does not dare to take the risk, this also stood up, and a faction for the sake of the third master's health said.
"Jing Xiu (Xiong Cixu's character), Dunfu (Zhang Ying's character), do you have any opinion on this, huh?"
The old man Kangxi ignored the comments of the elder brothers, but turned his gaze to Xiong Cixu and other top ministers who were standing silently aside, and asked in a deep voice.
"The ministers listen respectfully to the holy judgment, and have no objections."
Xiong Cilu and the others are all old birds in the sea, although they don't know much about the work behind the case, but when they see such a posture in the hall, how can they not know that the elder brothers are doing it again, and they refuse to get involved in it, so there is no need to discuss at all, and the five scholars almost played Tai Chi in unison.
Heh, are these old bones really cunning, yes, don't want to offend both? Hey, mistaken about the occasion, the old man may not be annoyed at this moment, and the bachelor you are waiting for is almost the end!
Although Hongqing was standing by the old man's dragon bed with an expressionless face at this time, seemingly not squinting, in fact, the corner of his eyes never left the old man's body, only seeing the glimmer of light in the old man's eyes, he instantly guessed that the old man was very dissatisfied with the attitude of the scholars who swallowed water, and he couldn't help muttering in his heart, fortunately, the city was deep, but it would not be brought to his face.
"Third child, do you have any ideas, huh?"
Although his face remained unchanged, the old man was obviously quite dissatisfied with the Tai Chi pushers of Xiong Cilu and others, but he didn't say anything, just turned his eyes away indifferently and threw the question to the third master.
"If you return to the emperor Ama, the retainers think that since there is a law to follow, then they will act according to the law, no matter who the presiding judge is, the retainers should try their best to cooperate with him, and never dare to disappoint the high expectations of the emperor Amma."
The third master has always regarded the powerful eighth master as his strongest opponent on the road to winning the heir, and he actually didn't want to let go of such a great opportunity to defeat the eighth master in one fell swoop.
"Well, that's good, Tong Guowei!"
The old man was obviously quite satisfied with the third master's statement, but he did not comment, but looked pale and named Tong Guowei.
"The minister is here!"
Although Tong Guowei is optimistic about the power of the eighth master, but in the final analysis, he is just quite connected, and he is really not a party of the eighth master, and he originally did not plan to open his eyes for the eighth master at this court meeting, which coldly heard the old man Kangxi named, and he couldn't help but feel a little bitter in his heart, but since the old man had opened the golden mouth, he didn't dare to refuse, so he could only flash out from the side in a hurry and respond respectfully.
"I Ling'er is the main trial, and together with the three divisions, the time limit is ten days, and the truth of this case must be ascertained."
The old man Kangxi didn't leave the slightest chance for Tong Guowei to shirk at all, and made his will in an unquestionable tone.
"Obey the order!"
Although he had expected Kangxi's intention to name him, as soon as the will came out, Tong Guowei couldn't help but palpitate for a while, but he didn't dare to shirk it, so he could only respectfully accept it.
"Hmm."
As soon as he saw that Tong Guowei had accepted the order, the old man Kangxi seemed to have no interest in discussing matters again, and with a soft voice, he got up, reached out and stroked Hongqing's head, and then strode into the apse. As soon as the old man left like this, the matter came to an end, and everyone in the palace couldn't stay any longer, so they went home separately......
"......, Master, that's what happened, Huang Ma Fa kindly let the students go to the household department to help, but they don't know what they mean? The student did not know, and asked the master to guide him. ”
As soon as the deliberations were over, the third master also got the case handed over by the Criminal Department, and Hongqing was free, but he didn't go to the next place, but went back to the house directly, found Old Master Chen, and introduced all the matters in detail in one breath.
"You are just a stepping stone, what Your Majesty really wants to send to manage the ministry are a group of brothers, and the intention of this move is clearly twofold, one is to divide the prince's momentum; Second, Your Majesty is really planning to race horses. ”
The old master obviously looked at the problem a little deeper than Hongqing, and broke the mystery in one bite, of course, this also has something to do with the fact that the old master is a bystander.
Pathfinder stones? Er, that's right, no matter whether we do well or not, the old man can logically send all the elder brothers to the various ministries, so that the foundation of the prince is dug up, and the elder brothers see hope, they are bound to do their best to manage the ministries.
Hongqing is a person who is good at calculation, and when the old master mentioned it, he immediately woke up, and as soon as the big stone in his heart fell to the ground, a smile immediately appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Alright, it's over, it's time to go for a lap."
Hongqing was obviously happy too early, and before his smile could be transformed into a smile, the old master's next sentence was like cold water poured on his head, which immediately made Hongqing stupid on the spot......
