"Come on, pass the meal!"

After discussing with Li Minquan and the third elder brother, Emperor Chengde thought that the situation was under control, and his original worries had been greatly reduced, and his mood was slightly comfortable, but his hunger was great, although it was not yet noon, he was already hungry and shouted, and the eunuchs who were waiting outside the palace hurried to answer the promise.

"Your Majesty, Fang Bao and Lord Fang are asking to see you outside the Qianqing 'Gate'."

Before the meal came, Li Dequan ran over first and brought the news that Fang Bao wanted to see him.

"What did he do? Missing! ”

Although Fang Bao has always maintained a neutral attitude in the court, and rarely participates in the dumping of the elder brothers, but in fact, he is on the side of Hongqing, which Emperor Chengde will not fail to see, and now, Emperor Chengde has just deployed a big game of chess, ready to give Hongqing a ruthless one, and he is unwilling to meet Fang Bao at this time, a minister close to Hongqing, but seeing that Emperor Chengde waved his hand unhappily, he did not hesitate to make a decision to refuse to see.

"Wow!"

Seeing Emperor Chengde's impatient expression, even if Li Dequan had the intention to turn around, he didn't dare to 'mess around', so he could only respond respectfully, and then withdrew from the dormitory, and hurried to the heavily guarded Qianqing 'door'.

"Your Majesty's dictation, no! Lord Fang, please come back. ”

In front of the Qianqing 'door', Fang Bao, who was dressed neatly in court clothes, was standing not far from the cordon with his hands down, and when he saw Li Dequan hurriedly coming out of the 'door', he hurriedly stretched out his hand to straighten his official robe, and hurriedly stepped forward, but he never thought that Li Dequan only stood at the cordon, and solemnly announced the words of Emperor Chengde.

"Huh?"

As soon as he heard that Emperor Chengde actually played a trick to refuse to see, Fang Bao's long longevity eyebrows were raised, and he took out a dragon-shaped 'jade' pendant from his wide sleeves with shaking hands, held it with both hands, raised it high above his head, and said loudly: "The first emperor gave the dragon pendant here, and the official asked to face the saint immediately, and bothered Gonggong Li to go on another trip." ”

"Lord Fang, please wait, the Rong Sa family will go to tell Your Majesty."

Li Dequan is the old man next to the old man Kangxi, so he can naturally recognize the authenticity of the dragon pendant, even if his face is 'revealed', there is no side, because this dragon pendant was given to Fang Bao by the old man Kangxi to save his life, even if he committed a heinous crime, he can rely on this. Jade 'Pei wrote off, of course, it can only be used once, basically it is the meaning of the gold medal to avoid death, and now, Fang Bao actually used this thing to request the immediate face of the saint, the payment is not small, Rao is Li De's whole city is deep, and he can't help but be moved, but he didn't say much, but respectfully bowed to Fang Bao, and then hurried back to the dormitory.

"What? The old puppet actually took out the dragon pendant? Is he crazy? Damn it, huh, let him get out of here! ”

In the dormitory, Chengde is eating, this has not eaten a few bites, Leng Buding heard Li Dequan say that Fang Bao held the first emperor's imperial gift of the dragon pendant to see, when even if the food can not swallow, there is no side, because the dragon pendant was originally the personal belongings of the old man Kangxi, in the fifty-fifth year of the Kangxi Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, in front of all the brothers and courtiers in Beijing from more than one grade, the old man personally gave Fang Bao, laughing that this is the royal gift of the gold medal to avoid death, but there is a request, as long as it does not violate the heavens, it can be allowed, this matter, Emperor Chengde has seen it with his own eyes, There is also a clear record in the emperor's living note, and now, Fang Bao was actually used at this time, Emperor Chengde was angry and angry, but there was no way, he could only angrily approve Fang Bao's request to see.

"Wow!"

Seeing that Emperor Chengde was so angry, Li Dequan dared to say anything from aside, so he hurriedly responded, and hurriedly went outside, and after a while, he walked in from behind the screen with Fang Bao, who had a solemn face.

"The old minister knocks to see Your Majesty."

Although Emperor Chengde's face was not very good, Fang Bao didn't care, but seeing that he calmly grabbed the front of the palace, it was a big gift to pay homage according to the court rules.

"Excuse me, what? Say! ”

Although Emperor Chengde was forced to meet Fang Bao under the pressure of the former emperor's imperial gift, he obviously didn't plan to talk to him more, and he didn't wait for Fang Bao to finish the ceremony, so he snorted impatiently.

"The old minister is willing to ask His Majesty to retreat."

Fang Bao didn't rush to say anything, but finished the big salute unhurriedly, and then he proposed a sentence in a calm voice.

"You ......, hum, all stand down!"

As soon as he heard Fang Bao's words, Emperor Chengde's originally impetuous heart became a little more annoyed, and he opened his mouth to 'want' to reprimand Fang Bao's rudeness, but in the end, he was still embarrassed to do so, so he just waved his hand impatiently at the palace 'women' waiting on the side, and ordered in a cold voice.

"Wow!"

Since Emperor Chengde had opened the golden mouth, Li Dequan and others did not dare to delay it slightly, so they all bowed down to the promise and withdrew from the dormitory.

"Okay, let's just say what you have to say, I'll listen."

Emperor Chengde said that he was listening, but the person leaned on the brocade mat, his eyes were half-open and half-closed, and he put on a posture that he didn't want to hear.

"When the old minister heard that Mount Tai was about to collapse, he was really uneasy, so he didn't dare not play it."

Seeing Emperor Chengde behave like this, Fang Bao's eyes immediately narrowed, but the etiquette was very thoughtful, but seeing that he kowtowed, he said an inexplicable word worriedly.

"Huh? You are talking nonsense, how can Mount Tai collapse, nonsense! ”

Emperor Chengde thought that Fang Bao was going to come to defend Hongqing, but he never expected Fang Bao to say such a thing, when he was 'confused', sat up straight, and scolded him with a displeased face.

"Heh, the old minister said that Mount Tai will collapse, Your Majesty doesn't believe it, but others say that Prince Ren will rebel, but Your Majesty believes it, isn't this a strange thing?"

Facing Emperor Chengde's cold reprimand, Fang Bao did not panic, but smiled faintly and asked calmly.

"Humph! I have already personally tried this matter, so why do I need to say more! ”

As soon as Fang Bao said this, the dissatisfaction on Emperor Chengde's face suddenly became a little stronger, and he turned his head away angrily.

"The ancients often said: Seeing is believing, hearing is false, of course it is common sense, however, in the eyes of the old minister, seeing may not be true, don't you hear that there is a way to plan in the world? Since ancient times, there are many people who use the room, even if it is a dead room, there are not a few, Your Majesty is a person who has read history books, and he should know about it, and there is no need for the old minister to say more. ”

As soon as Emperor Chengde's angry appearance came out, the smile on Fang Bao's face immediately became a little thicker, and he spoke unhurriedly.

"Dead? This ......, I'm afraid this is not going to happen? ”

Emperor Chengde was already a person who was extremely suspicious, and even though his heart was shaken when he heard Fang Bao say this, he just thought of the situation where he had personally interrogated all the people present before, and Emperor Chengde couldn't help but not believe what Fang Bao said.

"Isn't it going to be? Oh, Your Majesty, think about it, if Prince Ren 'wants' to ascend the throne, is there such an edict, is there a big difference? ”

Fang Bao shook his head with a smile, and asked again unhurriedly.

"Hmmm......"

The answer to Fang Bao's question is obvious, even if Emperor Chengde doesn't want to admit it, he also knows that Hongqing really wants to ascend the throne, and it doesn't matter if he doesn't leave an edict at all, even if Emperor Chengde is still alive, it is impossible to stop Hongqing's ascendancy, not to mention that the edict was originally passed on to Hongqing, even so, why does Hongqing need to send someone to steal or check, this is obviously a bit unreasonable, but then again, with such an edict, Hongqing's throne will appear to be justified, otherwise, After all, there is still a suspicion of usurpation, in this sense, Hongqing sent someone to secretly check the content of the edict, it seems to make sense, it is from this kind of thought, Emperor Chengde did not answer Fang Bao's question, just snorted noncommittally.

"Your Majesty, do you think that Prince Ren may also be worried that his name will not be right, so he will have someone 'privately' check the contents of it?"

Fang Bao is a wise man today, even if Emperor Chengde does not take the stubble, but he can see the psychological changes of Emperor Chengde at a glance, and he has no scruples at all, and he directly reveals what Emperor Chengde thinks.

"Is that possible?"

was so directly broken by Fang Bao, Emperor Chengde's old face couldn't help but turn red, but his mouth was still hard.

"Admittedly, there may be 'sex', but this kind of possible 'sex' is the same as the old minister saying that Mount Tai will collapse, almost negligible, with the wisdom of Prince Ren, why do you need to do this means, but the person who is trying to plant Prince Ren is obviously more suspicious, I don't know if Your Majesty thinks so?"

As soon as he saw Emperor Chengde's cooked duck, the 'meat' was almost rotten, but his mouth was still hard, Fang Bao was really secretly amused, but he didn't say anything to ridicule Emperor Chengde's ignorance and credulity, but pointed out the truth to the point.

"This ......"

Hearing Fang Bao's words, Emperor Chengde immediately hesitated, and the suspicion of Hongqing in his heart faded away, but at the same time, he was suspicious of the third elder brother, but it was about the face and dignity of the emperor, and Emperor Chengde was unwilling to admit his mistake like this, so he couldn't help but be speechless for a while. "Your Majesty, doesn't you think that relying on Li Minquan's bad tactics of offering some crooked 'doors' and evil ways, supplemented by the power of the third elder brother, can you really get Prince Ren? That is too underestimated Prince Ren's ability, do not hide from Your Majesty, the reason why the old minister will come to see is because of the trust of Prince Ren, if Your Majesty really wants to go your own way, then please kill the old minister first, so as not to go down to the Yellow Spring in the future, and he will have no shame to face the emperor. Seeing that Chengde was still suffering from gains and losses there, Fang Bao's face immediately became serious, but seeing that he kowtowed his head vigorously, he said again coldly, even if Emperor Chengde's old face was as red as a monkey's ass......
