Chapter 698: Follow the Trend (2)
"Alas, careless, this king really didn't expect a group of thieves to harbor such a vicious evil intention, alas, that's it, since the matter has come to this, it is useless to say more, and it will be discussed first."
Today's court discussion can be described as extremely intense, but the third master did not get a chance to speak, can only sit and watch the appearance of the unfavorable ending, the chagrin in his heart not to mention how crooked, this back to his own house, he hurriedly invited Chen and Li two major strategists, by Hongqing first told the process of the court discussion in detail, and then, the third master was very angry and lamented a few times, obviously the Ministry of Industry and silver were transferred away There is great dissatisfaction, this is not surprising, Although the silver of the Ministry of Industry is destined to be used to build roads, but once it comes, this is a virtue and politics, and it is not only the hearts of the people that it earns, but also can be used to buy the hearts of officials, for the third master, it is a beautiful thing, and moreover, the Ministry of Industry has so many silver taels, once there is something, it can be turned into silver for war preparation at any time, and now it has been allocated to the fourteenth master, how can the third master not feel distressed, but the distress is distressed, but the third master can't think of any tricks to deal with, so he can only throw the problem to the two strategists.
"Lord Wang, my subordinates thought that this matter might not be as simple as it seemed, the fourth master and the eighth master suddenly launched this time, not only for the silver of the Ministry of Industry, but also more likely to take this opportunity to provoke trouble, which is for the little prince."
The fourth master and the others launched so suddenly, not only did the third master fail to think of it, but the two strategists Chen and Li also did not expect it in advance, after listening to Hongqing's introduction, they all fell into deep thought, and in the end, it was Li Minquan who took the lead in opening his mouth.
"Huh? What do you mean by that? ”
The third master was annoyed by the disobedience of the court, and when he heard that the matter was not over, his brows were furrowed, and he asked anxiously.
"Wang Ye Mingjian, subordinates think that this is a series of schemes, whether the little prince is against the silver or in favor, there are disadvantages, yes needless to say, the Ministry of Industry silver has been embezzled, the little prince earlier drawn up the road construction plan is bound to fall into the void, as for the opposition to the arrival of the silver two provincial officials can not be without complaints, as for the opposition, it will make hundreds of thousands of soldiers on the front line cold, if a certain expectation is not bad, the eighth master will definitely spread the matter of today's court to the ears of the front-line soldiers, in order to ruin the reputation of the little prince, and this, Especially not the key point, now the little prince is the coordinator of the household, the second department of the army envoy, if there is no special means, I am afraid of the conspiracy of the children, if you can't complete the mission within ten days, the attack is small, the loss of the holy heart is big, it is really not to be neglected. ”
As early as when Hongqing stated the passage of the court, Li Minquan had already vaguely seen through the strangeness of this matter, and after some deduction, he already had an understanding in his heart.
"This ......, shouldn't it be done?"
The third master patronized the distressed Ministry of Works, and he didn't think about it deeply, but when he heard Li Minquan say that the situation was so serious, the third master's face was a little unpleasant.
"My subordinates also hope that this will not be the case, but this is probably the truth."
Faced with the third master's question, Li Minquan did not explain more, but shook his head with a wry smile and gave an affirmative answer.
"Well...... if so, what if so?"
The third master was obviously reluctant to accept such a fact, although Li Minquan had already made a positive judgment, but the third master still didn't want to believe it, and turned his attention to the old master Chen, but unfortunately the old master Chen didn't make any reaction at all, obviously did not object to Li Minquan's analysis, so that even if the third master was reluctant, he could only reluctantly accept such a reality.
"If you talk about coping, it's not too difficult, the military department has thirteen masters, and the household department has Zhao Shenqiao and Zhao Shangshu, just cooperate closely, and make a roughly able fold but it won't be a big problem, but if you want to come up with a clear charter, but I'm afraid it's difficult, the fourth master and the eighth master will not sit idly by, the best result may be a slight compromise, and the silver of the Ministry of Industry is afraid that it will be exhausted."
Li Minquan is obviously not very optimistic about Hongqing's poor prospects, and the solution proposed is basically to rely on the power of the old thirteen and Zhao Shenqiao, and play a trick of compromising with the fourth master and others, although it can also be regarded as a solution, but it is far from being very clever at all, at most it is just a golden mean.
"Does the Master have any advice on this?"
The third master is obviously very dissatisfied with Li Minquan's strategy, no side, if the silver of the Ministry of Industry is transferred, it is enough to make the third master feel distressed, not to mention that he has to pay another price to compromise with the fourth master and other mortal enemies, which is obviously far beyond the psychological tolerance of the third master, there is no doubt that although Li Minquan's strategy has not been commented, but the third master's attitude of ignoring it is enough to explain everything.
"Why compromise, why go with the flow!"
Regarding the analysis of Li Minquan's situation, Mr. Chen did not express a different opinion, but in terms of countermeasures, Mr. Chen obviously has a different opinion.
"Go with the flow? This ......"
The third master is a shrewd person, as soon as he heard Old Master Chen's words, he immediately had a vague understanding in his heart, but he didn't dare to be too sure, and after his eyes flickered a few times, he still tentatively asked half of the words.
"The prince should have thought of it, hey, the counter, the person counts, the fourth master and the eighth master joined forces this time, although they carefully calculated, and wanted to trap us in a disadvantage, however, as soon as they made a move, the weakness was exposed, and it was difficult to intervene in the past.
Old Master Chen reached out and stroked the long beard on his chest, his eyes swept over Hongqing as if inadvertently, and then he gave an answer in a relaxed tone.
Tsk, the old master is the old master, this mind is really keen!
Although the glance of the old master Chen is ordinary, but Hongqing knows the old master's mind, there is no other, the reason why Hongqing asked himself to take charge of the matter this time, is to bury the foreshadowing of meddling in the household and the soldiers, of course, which department should be the main direction of attack, Hongqing has not yet taken care of it, and now the old master Chen has broken through this matter, obviously he already has a proposition, Hongqing admires the wisdom and calculation ability of the old master Chen, and the curiosity in his heart has also been great, but, But it didn't bring it to his face, but still sat calmly and calmly.
"Well, this is indeed an opportunity, rather than hurting its ten fingers, it is better to cut off one of its fingers, now the old fourteen are far away in the Western Regions, and the military department is temporarily taken care of by the old thirteen, if you start from here, it should not be difficult, as for the household department, there is the fourth child, I am afraid it will be difficult to make too much progress, and it is difficult to take easy, but it is not a good strategy."
Hearing what Old Master Chen said, the third master did not dwell on the gains and losses of the Ministry of Industry and the bank, but turned his mind to seeking power and analyzing the situation, which can be regarded as pertinent.
"Hey, if the prince thinks like this, things will definitely fail!"
The third master said very firmly, but he never thought that his words had just fallen, and Old Master Chen had already smiled sarcastically, and gave the third master a slap in the face mercilessly, which made the third master's old face flush.
"What do you mean by that?"
The third master frowned slightly and thought about it, but he still couldn't figure out the basis for Old Master Chen's judgment, and after hesitating for a moment, he still had to ask honestly.
"The prince thinks about it, the fourteenth elder brother is now commanding the army outside, in order to calm his heart, how can His Majesty allow others to stir up trouble in the military department, the thirteenth master has been in charge of the military department for more than a year, why not do it a little bit, not unwillingly, really can't hear, this is also the thirteenth is also smart, hey, if the thirteenth master really dares to move, he is afraid that it is still light, and it is not impossible to lose the messenger, and besides, if the prince plans to move the army, how can the eighth master sit idly by, and then count the fourth master on the side, the prince is undefeated? On the contrary, if it is the household department, the eighth master will definitely stand by and watch, counting on the prince and the fourth master to have a hard encounter, and he will pick up the leaks from the side, so that without the constraints of the eighth master's side, the household affairs may not be impossible. ”
Old Master Chen did not sell much, but analyzed the situation in detail, pointed out the inviolability of the military department, and predicted the possible reaction of the eighth master's side.
"Hmm, what does Zicheng think about this?"
Old Master Chen has analyzed the situation so clearly, the third master will not understand, the heart is a natural thing, but the stakes are very high, the third master is heartbroken, but he is not in a hurry to make a decision, but cautiously threw the question to Li Minquan.
"Lord Mingjian, my subordinates think that what the master said should be a feasible way, however, in order to ensure that there is no risk, why not make a silent strategy to attack the west, if you focus on the military department, in fact, you are aiming at the loss of the household, if you can seal your throat with a sword, it may damage the foundation of the fourth master, but this matter has to be fully cooperated by Zhao Shenqiao."
Li Minquan's ability to calculate is still inferior to Old Master Chen, but his reasoning ability is not bad, and with Old Master Chen's awakening, he can also deduce the best strategy.
"Is Qing'er sure about this?"
Although Zhao Shenqiao has gradually moved closer to Prince Cheng's Mansion for more than a year, and the relationship with the third master has gradually become closer, the third master clearly knows that the person Zhao Shenqiao is really close to is Hongqing, if you want Zhao Shenqiao to fully cooperate, you can really only rely on Hongqing, in this regard, although the third master can't help but be a little jealous, but he didn't show it, just asked Hongqing quietly.
"If you return to your father's words, the child is willing to give it a try."
Although the third master covered it up well, Hongqing was a shrewd individual, and he could guess the jealousy that the third master was hiding but not revealed, and he couldn't help but cry and laugh in his heart, but there was nothing to explain about this matter, so he could only pretend to bow down ignorantly and answer respectfully.
"Okay, that's it, Qing'er just let it go, everything is your own Ama to call the shots."
Hearing Hongqing's reply, the third master didn't hesitate any longer, waved his hand, and made a final decision very heroically......
