"Back to Huang Marfa's words, according to his grandson's view, although this battle is a must-win situation, however, the big victory and the tragic victory are completely different results, the root of which is who is the handsome, if it is the way of land warfare, the fourteenth uncle has few opponents in the world, but this expedition is not only land warfare, the key to naval warfare is above the land battle, only by first breaking the sailors and forts of the Japanese country, can we ensure the smooth landing of my expeditionary army, because of this, my grandson thinks that the thirteenth uncle is handsome or more appropriate."

Hongqing did not rush to answer the old man's question, but after muttering for a while, he cautiously pushed the old thirteen out to fight with the old fourteen.

"Buzz ......"

As soon as Hongqing's words came out, the courtiers in the square immediately began to discuss randomly, no one else, everyone knew that he was originally the fourth master's person, and the third master was still arguing with the fourth master in court, at this time Hongqing actually recommended the old thirteen as handsome, everyone couldn't help but be a little confused, besides, the old thirteen has been in captivity for more than three years, and still can't see when it is a head, let it be handsome, it's too child's play, isn't it?

"Hongqing, this is the imperial front, Er Xiu wants to talk nonsense, the thirteenth brother has already been confined, how can he be handsome!"

The tenth master is a violent temper, and when he heard Hongqing recommend the thirteenth in court, he became angry on the spot, his face sank, and he scolded him regardless of it.

"The tenth brother said this well, how can you joke in front of you, nephew Qing is so reckless that he is not playing, be cautious, be cautious."

As soon as Lao Shi's words fell, Lao Jiu had already echoed from the side, singing and squeezing Hongqing.

"Enough!"

The old man was obviously extremely dissatisfied with the singing and harmony of the nine or eleven elder brothers, so he frowned and broke off impatiently, and then, regardless of how ugly the faces of the two elder brothers were, his eyes were sharp as knives staring at Hongqing, and he asked almost word by word: "What does Qing'er mean by this, huh?" ”

"If you go back to Huang Mafa, your grandson thinks that you are asking who is handsome, and your grandson will answer truthfully, as for what others think, it has nothing to do with your grandson."

Don't look at the old man's question, but Hongqing is not worried at all, there is nothing to do, just because Hongqing has already seen that the old man does not actually plan to hand over the handsome position to the old fourteenth, even so, Hongqing proposed that the old thirteenth be handsome.

"Truthfully? How to follow the real law, I am very curious, let's talk about it. ”

Hongqing's reply was obviously a bit tough, but the old man didn't move, just asked with an expressionless face.

"So that Huang Mafa learned that his grandson has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and he is also quite interested in the art of war, but he has no one to guide him, and the progress has not been great, so he hit the idea to the thirteenth uncle, since the year before last, he has visited the thirteenth uncle privately, thanks to the thirteenth uncle who did not give up, benefited a lot, and knew that the thirteenth uncle was worthy of the name of the soldier brother, not only in the land war, but also in the naval battle, the grandson did not play wargames with the thirteenth uncle, but unfortunately there were few victories, it was really ashamed."

Since he intends to recommend the old thirteen, how to explain the ability of the old thirteen is naturally the key, in this regard, Hongqing has already had a belly case, and he will come out at this time, and he will be very calm.

"Huang Ama Mingjian, the thirteenth brother is a person who is circled, according to the rules of the court, no one is allowed to visit privately, if there is a violation, it should be punished with joint sitting, and now Hongqing knows the law and violates the law, and the crime is added to one degree!"

The old ten's resentment against Hongqing is as deep as the sea, and he always wants to kill Hongqing, but unfortunately he has always suffered from it.

"Huang Ama, the tenth brother is very true, the court has its own laws, how can it be so reckless, the ministers think that Hongqing's move is very inappropriate, there is a suspicion of contempt for the court, and it must be punished."

It is rare for Hongqing to admit his guilt, and of course Lao Jiu will not let go of such a good opportunity to hit Hongqing, so he immediately echoed the words.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that what the king of Dunjun said is very true, and it seems that such an evil act of flouting the laws of the country and the government must not be indulged lightly!"

"Your Majesty, as a child of the Heavenly Family and a member of the imperial court, but he has done such illegal and rude things, his heart is unpredictable, and his deeds are also evil, which is really a violation of the law, and he should be severely punished."

"Your Majesty, according to the law of the Qing Dynasty, those who know the law and violate the law should be guilty of one more degree, and Qing Baylor's move must not be taken lightly!"

……

With the nine or eleven elder brothers taking the lead, Nalan Yuxu and others, who had long seen Hongqing's displeasure, would not let go of such a great opportunity to fall into the ground, and they were impeached in unison, which had the potential to put Hongqing to death in one fell swoop.

"Qing'er, do you have any explanation for this, huh?"

The crowd shouted fiercely, but the old man was not moved, just listened silently, until the shouting of the crowd stopped, then he looked at Hongqing with a smile, and said with a sense of schadenfreude.

"If you go back to Huang Marfa, the grandson went to visit the thirteenth uncle because of family affection, and secondly, he just wanted to learn some art of war, and had no other ideas, this matter is indeed contrary to the law, and the grandson did not dare to deny it, however, if he can recommend a handsome talent for the country to ensure the great victory of my expedition to Dongying, even if the grandson is punished, he is willing."

Hongqing confessed his guilt very simply, no one else, this trick out of the expedition was against the old man's original intention, and he couldn't escape a meal, so he simply confessed, so that the old man had an excuse to vent, and it also saved the old man from being settled by the old man.

"Since Er has pleaded guilty, then you must be punished by Yuer, well, you will be punished for a year, retired from the court, and you went to the Zongren Mansion, how Prince Zhuang wants to punish Er, you don't care, you can be convinced?"

The old man really planned to teach Hongqing a lesson this time, so he gave the punishment result in court.

"Thank Huang Mafaronen, my grandson doesn't dare to have any objections."

As soon as he heard such a punishment result, Hongqing's scalp couldn't help but feel numb, no side, the penalty for a year is a trivial matter, just more than 8,000 taels of silver, Hongqing really can't look down on it, but go to the Zongren Mansion to admit punishment, but it's not so easy to play, you must know that Prince Zhuang is a ruthless master, when the old sixteen criminals were in his hands, but he was beaten to bed for several months, Hongqing and Prince Zhuang have never had much friendship at all, and they don't dare to expect this iron-masked prince to show mercy to his subordinates, the problem is that the old man Chrysostom has been opened, No matter how bitter Hongqing is in his heart, he can only admit it honestly.

"Well, that's good, you said a lot of new firearms in the Ministry of Industry before, and said that the old thirteen are good at naval warfare, and they haven't seen it with their own eyes, so I won't comment on it, so let's give you three days to prepare all the new firearms in the Ministry of Industry, and try out in Nanhaizi, I want to see how amazing this firearm is, and in addition, spread the will of the old thirteen to Nanhaizi in three days!"

Seeing Hongqing's bitter face, the old man couldn't help laughing, but he didn't scold Hongqing anymore, but turned to get down to business, and after two edicts in a row, he got up and slowly turned back to the Qianqing Gate.

"Scatter!"

As soon as the old man left like this, the court discussion came to an end, and Qin Wuyong, who was waiting in front of the door, hurriedly shouted, and led a group of eunuchs and palace maids to hurriedly chase after the old man's back.

"Qing'er, can you go with you?"

The court was dispersed, and the courtiers did not dare to delay in front of the Qianqing Gate any longer, so they dispersed in twos and threes, but the third master did not move, walked slowly in front of Hongqing, and asked worriedly.

"Father, the child has taken what he has done, please go back first."

Although the third master is long-sleeved and good at dancing, he doesn't have much friendship with the idle and boring sect disciples in the Zongren Mansion, whether he goes or not, it doesn't have much effect, besides, Hongqing doesn't want to be punished by himself The image falls in the eyes of the third master, so he shook his head, and resolutely rejected the kindness of the third master.

"It's okay, you wait here first, and Ama will go to the harem to ask the emperor Ama for extrajudicial favor."

For the third master, Hongqing is not only the eldest son, but also the most important helper, since he didn't want to see Hongqing have any damage, he gritted his teeth, and after an explanation, he hurried to the direction of Qianqing Palace.

Extrajudicial favors? Hey, if the old man is willing to give extrajudicial kindness, then he won't let us go to the Zongren Mansion to report, yes, this time our little ass seems to be unable to keep it!

For the third master's face saint move, although Hongqing did not stop it, but did not have much hope, because the old man is just going to take Hongqing out of anger, how can he give the third master face, in Hongqing's opinion, the third master is removed except for touching a nose of ash, I am afraid that I will not get anything, rather than waiting here to let people see the joke, it is better to be single, and take the board that should be led, as soon as I thought of this, Hongqing did not stay in place, but walked slowly in the direction of the palace gate.

"Brother Qing, you're finally out!"

Qianqingmen is not far from Tiananmen, but Hongqing is thoughtful, walking slowly, a full time of incense, just wandering out of Tiananmen, is about to go to Tiananmen not far away, but saw two people flashed out of the door, one left and one right Hongqing in the middle, it was the old fifteen brothers who arrived.

"Well, Uncle Fifteen, Uncle Sixteen, you two are ......"

Seeing that it was the old fifteen brothers who came out, Hongqing couldn't help but be stunned, these brothers are not qualified to go to the court, usually in the early dynasty, these brothers are a quasi-cat "Qilin Firm", and now they will be blocked in front of Tiananmen Square, which really makes Hongqing a little confused.

"Hey, if you don't come, Brother Qing'er's little ass will not be able to be saved."

Lao Sixteen is a funny master, and he doesn't care about the occasion at all, so he laughed and ridiculed Hongqing.

"Huh?"

As soon as he heard what Lao Sixteen said strangely, Hongqing couldn't help but be stunned, although he didn't ask a question, but his eyes were full of undisguised doubts......
