Chapter 1026: Ultimatum (4)

"Lord Qiqi, Old Master Chen is here."

Hongqing said that he was waiting for the news of Emperor Chengde in the Summer Palace, but in fact, as soon as he left the imperial city, he led a group of guards to rush to the general staff of the three armies near Fengtai, and summoned Yue Zhongqi and several other chief officers of the army to the secret room to discuss the major affairs of the military aircraft, but it did not alarm the generals below.

"Well...... please go to the king's office first, and then go back to the king."

The reason why Hongqing did not return to his home, nor did he go to the Summer Palace, and came directly to the General Staff of the three armed forces, in addition to deploying a contingency strategy, was also extraordinary to avoid the intention of Old Master Chen, and there was no side, although what Old Master Chen said echoed the so-called Confucian righteousness, but it was obviously not in line with Hongqing's strategic intentions, not that Old Master Chen had any ambitions, but that his vision was not broad enough. But I didn't expect Old Master Chen to still touch it, and it really made Hongqing a little crying and laughing, and it was difficult to refuse to see it, so he could only let out a sullen breath, shook his head helplessly, and commanded reluctantly.

"Wow!"

Hearing Hongqing's words, Ding Song was obviously relieved, there is nothing else, mixed between this pair of masters and apprentices who can be called resourceful, Ding Song is really a little difficult to be, what he is afraid of is that Hongqing will refuse to see, once this is the case, Ding Song is afraid that he will have a headache, fortunately, Hongqing still agreed to see, Ding Song did not dare to be a little lazy, hurriedly responded, hurriedly exited the secret room, and went to greet Old Master Chen without mentioning.

"Okay, let's discuss it here today, after the princes go back, remember to be cautious, and effectively control all the departments, not to the king's orders, never to move, let alone leak the news, if you dare to violate, there will be no forgiveness!"

As soon as Old Master Chen arrived, Hongqing didn't dare to let him wait for a long time, but fortunately, what should have been discussed before was almost discussed, and at this time, Hongqing just announced the final order after admonishing him again.

"Wow!"

All the generals present were Hongqing's absolute henchmen, and they would not have the slightest objection to Hongqing's order, but when they saw that all the generals bowed down and agreed to the promise, they got up separately, and they withdrew from the secret room, and did not mention the relevant matters of the deployment.

Hongqing really wanted to avoid Old Master Chen, but since he couldn't avoid it, Hongqing was also very single, and after sending the generals away, he didn't have much delay, and went directly to his office in the General Staff of the Three Armed Forces.

"I've seen the master."

At this moment, Hongqing didn't pay attention to Ding Songwang's aggrieved gaze, and grabbed the front of Old Master Chen in a few big steps, and bowed very respectfully.

"Is the prince very busy?"

Old Master Chen was obviously still angry, even though Hongqing's salute was very respectful, but Old Master Chen still sneered at Hongqing angrily.

"Let the master see and smile, the apprentice is just busy, Ding Song, you kid is making a lot of food, don't you see that the master's tea is cold, why don't you hurry up and change it!"

As soon as he heard Old Master Chen's words, Hongqing knew that he was afraid that he would not be able to escape a reprimand today, and he didn't want Ding Song to see the joke here, so he pretended to be angry and scolded him.

"Wow!"

Hongqing reprimanded him very harshly, but Ding Song listened to it in his ears, but it was like a fairy music, there was no side, he really didn't want to be taught a lesson by Old Master Chen anymore, but when he saw that he was in a hurry, he responded, and if he got amnesty, he would slip away.

"Hmph, sit down."

Old Master Chen is a shrewd individual, how could he not guess Hongqing's thoughts, but he didn't embarrass Ding Song anymore, just snorted coldly, pointed to the chair below, and motioned for Hongqing to sit down by himself.

"Thank you for your honor."

Since he couldn't escape some hard training, Hongqing was also mentally prepared, and after thanking him, he calmly sat next to Old Master Chen, and there was only a small coffee table between the two.

"Before coming to the palace, I entered the palace."

To Hongqing's surprise, Old Master Chen did not reprimand Hongqing's many wrongdoings, but frowned slightly and said something that made Hongqing's spirit awe-inspiring.

"Oh?"

As soon as he heard that Old Master Chen had entered the palace, Hongqing's eyebrows were raised, but he didn't ask anything, he just said noncommittally, there was nothing else, although Hongqing gave Emperor Chengde a chance to choose, but in fact, there was some hope in his heart that Emperor Chengde would make a wrong choice, so it would be better to have a hundred, after all, he was always so endlessly tossing, Hongqing was really a little fed, but as soon as Old Master Chen entered the palace, it seemed that such a small ambition was about to fall into the void, Hongqing really doesn't know whether to be happy or worried.

"When entering the palace for the teacher, the fourth master had just left."

As soon as he saw Hongqing's reaction, Old Master Chen immediately glared at him fiercely, obviously seeing through the small abacus in Hongqing's heart.

"Fourth uncle? Oh, I'm afraid this guy is going to resign, hey, it's really calculating! ”

Hongqing's ability to calculate is not under Old Master Chen at all, only after listening to it, he immediately guessed the intention of the fourth master to enter the palace, and he was really unhappy in his heart, and he couldn't help but sneer.

"Of course, the fourth master has his calculations, however, as far as the matter itself is concerned, it is also a good thing, after this time, no one should dare to start the Ministry of Works, and the prince can also stop, and the future will be talked about in the future."

As soon as Hongqing's sarcastic words came out, Old Master Chen knew that Hongqing had seen through the true intentions of the fourth master's resignation, so he didn't waste his tongue to explain, nor did he reprimand Hongqing's attitude, because Old Master Chen knew very well that if a male lord like Hongqing had calculated in his heart, it would be difficult to persuade him back with words, even so, Old Master Chen never gave up his efforts, just because he didn't want to see the old things of Xuanwumen staged, even if it angered Hongqing, Old Master Chen did not hesitate.

"Well...... the fourth uncle is so painstaking, and his plan is very big, with the wisdom of the emperor Ama, I am afraid that it is difficult to see his intentions, this time so 'loyal' The expression of Xiàn came out, I expect that the emperor Ama will definitely allow him to take care of the heavy responsibility, and no one will take care of the criminal department, if the apprentice is not bad, the emperor Ama will give the criminal department to the fourth uncle, in order to reward his merits, but I don't know that this is a tiger for trouble, and I am afraid that there will be a headache in the future."

Hongqing did not express or comment on what Old Master Chen said, but shook his head with a slight frown, and analyzed it by himself, the worry between the words was not shallow, no side, whether it was the majestic Eighth Master in the early years or the third elder brother and others who are very cheerful now, in Hongqing's opinion, they are just local chickens and dogs, and they are vulnerable at all, but the only ones who make Hongqing a little jealous are the fourth master and the father and son, the reason is very simple, this father and son are very forbearing, Strength has always been on the table, even if he has a sharp weapon such as a "sharp knife", Hongqing does not dare to assert that he has figured out the true strength of the fourth master, like such a biting dog, never barking, but the mouth is extremely ruthless, Hongqing does not want to see the possibility of the fourth master to further enhance his strength, but now Hongqing is not good at being ruthless - there is no reason, and he is good at killing the best minister, that is a stupid thing to make the Manchu Dynasty civil and military chill, Hongqing will not do it, because of this, even if he is unhappy in his heart, he can only do it helplessly.

"Isn't the prince afraid?"

Old Master Chen also knows that the fourth master is not easy to deal with, and the eighth master who has not seen many people has already arrived in Taiwan, but the fourth master is still living a good life, not only alive, but also won the trust of Emperor Chengde this time, and is about to be put to great use, which shows how the fourth master can be, but compared to worrying about the rise of the fourth master, Old Master Chen is more concerned about the stable inheritance of the society, and he does not agree with Hongqing's statement.

"Shizun smiled, are you afraid, I can't talk about it, I'm just bored with it, and I am afraid that there will be a lot of variables to deal with in the future, but the matter has come to this point, so it's okay."

The fourth master and the old master Chen have made so many efforts, and Emperor Chengde will not do stupid things, so that the ambition in Hongqing's heart will not be realized, and in such a situation, there will be no righteousness, even if he is on the throne, he will need to spend a huge price to stabilize the domestic situation, and he will really completely eliminate all the adverse effects, not a few years, I am afraid that it will be difficult to see results, which will inevitably affect Hongqing's strategic layout, instead of forcing things so unsmoothly, It's better to wait for Emperor Chengde to return to the west, and it will only take a few years, Hongqing can still afford to wait, of course, the premise is that Emperor Chengde can really keep his promise and no longer interfere in the affairs of the Ministry and military affairs.

"It's good that the prince can think like this, the matter is set, and he won't talk much about being a teacher, and he will go into the palace to reply."

Although Hongqing did not explicitly promise to stop, the meaning was already very clear, with the IQ of Old Master Chen, he would not be unable to hear it, and he did not plan to say more, so he got up, and after explaining a sentence, he was about to go to the layman.

"There's Lao Shizun bothered."

For the good intentions of the old master Chen, although Hongqing did not agree with it, but he was still very grateful for his dedication to serve the country, this time he saw that he was going to work tirelessly to go around, and he couldn't help but feel a little guilty in his heart, but he didn't say much, just a polite word, and then respectfully sent the old master Chen out of the gate......
