Chapter 251: Behind the Fog

"Your Majesty has a decree, Xuan, Dorobel Hongqing, Qianqing Palace to see you!"

Qin Wuyong walked quickly to the bottom of the steps, first bowed to the prince, and then stood up straight, his face was solemn, and he pronounced the old man's words one by one.

"Thanksgiving, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Hongqing really didn't expect that the court discussion had just dispersed, and the old man came to summon him, and his mind couldn't help but be a little confused for a while, but fortunately, the reaction was fast enough, and he knelt on the ground like a conditioned reflex, and thanked him respectfully.

"Sunny Belle, please."

After Hongqing thanked him, Qin Wuyong didn't say anything, just waved his hand sideways, signaling Hongqing to go first.

"I'm tired."

Hong Qingxun thanked him, but he was not in a hurry to leave, but respectfully bowed to the prince who was standing on the side and said: "Huang Ma Fa has a trick, the ministers and nephews dare not delay a little, and ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Hai Han to be one." ”

"Well, it's okay for Qing'er to go by yourself, and when you go back, the palace should set up a banquet for you to practice."

The prince is a person with a good face, and when he saw Hongqing respecting himself so much, the smile on his face suddenly became a little kinder, and he raised his hand with a spring breeze on his face and said politely.

"Grandson knocks on Huang Marfa!"

Hongqing didn't talk to the prince anymore, and when he turned around, he gave the third master a knowing look, and then followed Qin Wuyong all the way to the direction of the Qianqing Palace, and walked all the way through the hall to the apse of the Qianqing Palace.

"Excuse me, just settle down."

The old man looked at Hongqing deeply, then smiled, and raised his hand warmly and called out.

"Grandson Xie Huang Mafaronen."

The old man shouted, and Hongqing thanked him, stood up, bowed slightly, and stood with his hands down, making an appearance of listening to the hadith.

"Qing'er should know that salt is a heavy tax for the imperial court, and it must not be ignored, and it will be dangerous and difficult to go this time, if there are any obstacles, and say it directly, but what can be given by elimination, it should be given."

When the old man was in the first place, he didn't let the salt merchants donate money and materials, and he knew that the two Huai salt merchants were rich and powerful, although he admired Hongqing's ability, but he still couldn't help but worry about whether Hongqing could really pick up such a heavy burden, after all, Hongqing's actual age was only in his early tens, although he was more shrewd than adults, but the age of the young chong was there, because of this, the old man called Hongqing this time, in addition to planning to give additional support, I also want to hear Hongqing's thoughts on the rectification strategy.

"Back to the Emperor Marfa, the grandson does have two things to be particularly gracious to the Emperor Marfa, the grandson is not familiar with the land of the two Huai, however, think that the salt merchants dare to risk the world's condemnation to traffick illicit salt, presumably can not get rid of the collusion of officials and businessmen, want to rectify the salt affairs, must first rectify the officialdom, otherwise, everything may be a flower in the water, the moon in the mirror, in view of this, the grandson hopes that the emperor Marfa can allow the grandson to join forces with the Ba Junmen, one of them, the second, the grandson also wants to ask the emperor Marfa to give the grandson a transfer order, the number of thousands can be, in addition to these two articles, The grandson has nothing else to ask for. ”

Since the old man opened Chrysostom, Hongqing would not let go of such a great opportunity to gain real power, so he groaned and made a request.

"Well, I'm all right, well, if necessary, Qing'er can contact Cao Yin, I think he can still help you a lot, if you have more, I won't say it, I am doing errands outside, everything must be safe, and I will discuss with Ba and Cao in case of trouble, and then I will go back."

Although the old man thought about doing an errand and giving a few more words, after thinking about it, it seemed that there was no need for this, so he didn't say any more, so he waved his hand and gave the order to expel the guest.

"Yes, my grandson is leaving."

Today, such a salt drama happened very suddenly, Hongqing still couldn't see through the strangeness at this time, and was in a hurry to go back to the house to discuss with Old Master Chen.

"Well, you just have to concentrate on salt affairs, everything in the court and China has its own, so you don't have to worry about it, just go."

Before Hongqing could raise his feet, the old man suddenly spoke again.

"Yes, my grandson remembers."

As soon as he heard the old man's words, Hongqing couldn't help but be slightly stunned, but he couldn't see through the intention of the old man's words for a while, but he didn't dare to ask, he could only thank him in a proper manner, and quit the dormitory.

"I've seen the master."

The third master and Li Minquan never returned to the house, and only the old master Chen in a white robe sat alone in the spacious inner courtyard study, silently playing music, and Hongqing, who hurried back to the house all the way, saw this, hurriedly walked to the front, and respectfully saluted and greeted him.

"Well, what happened to the DPRK?"

Seeing that Hongqing rushed back so early, Old Master Chen's brows couldn't help frowning, and he was not very polite, so he asked directly.

"Back to Shizun's words, something strange has indeed happened, and it is ...... in the morning today."

Hongqing had long been accustomed to the wisdom of the old master, and he would not be surprised by his words, so he quickly organized some language to explain in detail all the things that happened in the early court today, even if he did not even pull down the situation summoned by the old man.

"The tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, what should come will come after all, this plan to transfer the tiger away from the mountain, it seems that the jealousy of the three brothers has reached the limit of tolerance, this is to join forces for the sake of the saint, fortunately, the wisdom of the saint, even if the young people are ghosts, but they are just doing useless work, but they are afraid that it is difficult to have peace at all!"

Old Master Chen is worthy of being a wise man in the world, and after only a little thought, he has already seen through the truth behind the fog, and there is a strong worry about Hongqing's mission to rectify the salt affairs between his words.

I see!

Hongqing's IQ is extremely high, the reason why he failed to see through the fog before, is because he is in this mountain, he doesn't know the true face of Lushan, he was reminded by the old man, and he immediately reacted, there is no other, the third master has taken the lead on the road to win the heir, and has seriously threatened the future of all the elder brothers, and naturally has become a public enemy. Even if the brothers join forces, they may not really be able to gain the upper hand, and only by trying to transfer Hongqing or one of the three masters can they have the possibility of breaking through.

"What the master said is very true, before the disciple left the palace, Huang Ma Fa had already hinted in his words, thinking that it would not make Ama suffer a big loss, but it was indeed quite risky for the disciple to go, however, if the salt affairs can be really put in order, the great cause of Ama is also a great benefit, and this matter is related to the important affairs of the national line, as a social minister, he should have taken responsibility, the disciple has received the will, since the Zen spirit has done his best to think about it, but I don't worry that the situation in Beijing is strange and unpredictable, and I also ask the master to stay in Beijing to help my father and the king!"

After figuring out the key to the matter, Hongqing did not feel frustrated about falling into the trap, but was full of fighting spirit, and after thinking silently for a while, he expressed his attitude impassionedly.

"Well, the little prince just needs to go to the salt affairs with peace of mind, and the affairs of the capital will not stand idly by!"

The reason why Old Master Chen resigned from the government was not the third master but Hongqing, and he didn't want to see Hongqing have the possibility of adventure, but the old master was not an emotional person, even if he was worried about Hongqing's going, he didn't dare to leave Beijing to accompany him, after all, although Li Minquan next to the third master was a little talented, but there was obviously a big gap from the level of the wise man in the world.

"Then please ask the master, the holy decree is probably coming, the disciple will leave Beijing in a few days, and some things still need to be arranged in advance, so the disciple will retire first."

Hongqing was relieved to get the promise of Old Master Chen, and remembered that there were still a lot of things to be decided on the business and the "Sharp Knife Gang", so he didn't dare to delay more, so he respectfully thanked him, and then got up and planned to leave.

"Slow, this time I went to Yangzhou, there is a holy decree and a transfer order on the official side, and then counting the forces of the Ba Junmen and the Cao family, there is no need to worry too much, however, the young people in the rivers and lakes have to be guarded against, you might as well bring more people from Xiaoskeanzi Hutong on this trip, as for Beijing, it is better to stop for the time being, so as not to provoke the forces of all sides."

Without waiting for Hongqing to turn around, the old man suddenly raised his hand and commanded with a solemn expression.

"This ......, or not, the disciple will go and mobilize manpower."

The "Sharp Knife Gang" is the dark force that Hongqing has worked hard to create, with the continuous financial support of the "Qilin Firm", it is now under control of two-thirds of the situation in Xicheng, and it can't help but so, and it will also reach into the yamen and barracks of the Beijing Division, although what can be controlled at the moment is only the bottom, but the momentum of development is getting faster and faster, and there are a few years of operation, it can definitely compete with the thirteen yamen in the hands of the old man, if it is silent at this time, Obviously, the morale and development momentum have been greatly affected, and Hongqing does not hesitate to be free, but seeing that Old Master Chen's face is so solemn, Hongqing has to think carefully and again, and in the end, although he agreed to the old master's proposal, he did not intend to completely stop the drum in his heart, but just wanted to make another arrangement.
