As for how to choose, it can only depend on the judgment of each person, of course, the consequences caused, that must also be borne by each person, in this regard, everyone who plays politics must have a clear understanding, once chosen, it is difficult to change the court, especially when it comes to the battle of heaven, even more so, the loser is not just a matter of personal life and death, It is not uncommon to be exterminated, but if you stand right, then you have the great merit of the dragon, and the shadow of the wife is not a problem, obviously, this kind of temptation is too great, so it will attract countless heroes to bend their waists, but all the people who are in the official career, can resist this kind of temptation can be said to be rare, but some people are cautious, unwilling or dare not stand in line, but some people are too risky, and they stand in line early, in order to seize the opportunity, there is no doubt that Hedda is such a person.

If Heda really has the heart not to take charge of the whole army, then he should first make a statement to Hongqing, and then mention a matter of words, instead of pretending to be high-profile and claiming to resign, these words seem to be loyal and upright, but in fact, it has already revealed that he has already chosen Emperor Chengde in his heart, not Hongqing, of course, this is not surprising, after all, Emperor Chengde is the emperor, and he is Heda's master, and although Hongqing has outstanding ability and high status, but after all, he is just an elder brother, which is already evil to Emperor Chengde's heart, Hedda didn't think that Hongqing would be able to get a good go, and chose to stand on the side of Emperor Chengde, which was a matter of course for Heda.

Angry? I really can't talk about it, but it's a bit of a loss, after all, Hongqing and Hedda have been friends for many years, and the cooperation between each other in previous years can be regarded as quite a deed, and now, with Heda's team, there is no possibility of compromise between the two sides, and it is inevitable that you live and die, of course, that's all for later, at least for now, the two sides can still coexist peacefully, as for the future, it can only be seen and seen.

"Your Majesty's edict, Xuan, Prince Ren Hongqing Yangxin Palace."

After handing over the complete army with Heda, Hongqing did not delay, as soon as he got out of the Fengtai camp and rushed to the imperial city, there was no side, it was to take over the edict to negotiate with the envoys of the Kingdom of Great Britain, and finally had to ask Emperor Chengde to show the corresponding requirements, this is the court's customary ear, since there is nothing to say, this rushed to the ground, please see the card as soon as it was handed over, and it was not long before I saw Li Dequan leading two little eunuchs to come in a hurry, and announced the dictation of Emperor Chengde at a glance.

"There's Father-in-law Lao Li."

Since Emperor Chengde has an oracle, Hongqing has to hurry up and thank him three times according to the rules of the court, and after the ceremony, he did not forget to thank Li Dequan, of course, it is customary to quietly stuff a folded silver ticket, and Hongqing will not forget it.

"Lord Wang, please!"

When Emperor Chengde first ascended the throne, when Li Dequan saw Hongqing, he was quite stammering, and his words often deliberately revealed some news about the inner court, but since the signal of discord between Emperor Chengde and Hongqing, this old man's attitude towards Hongqing has changed, and he has returned to the early years of not salty and indifferent, even if Hongqing has already stuffed silver tickets, this old man just smiled hypocritically, didn't want to say anything, just bowed down and urged a sentence.

"Hmm."

The world is so hot and cold, Hongqing has long been mentally prepared for this, but he doesn't care about Li Dequan's attitude, he said indifferently, raised his feet and walked to the palace gate, all the way to the palace of nourishing the heart speechlessly, and saw Emperor Chengde, who was sitting on the top, laughing and talking with Zhang Tingyu, Ma Qi and other military ministers, and the mood seemed to be quite good.

"The retainer knocks on the emperor Amma."

There is no need to guess, Hongqing can also know why Emperor Chengde is in a good mood, and he is just proud of his self-righteous and clever means, in this regard, Hongqing has already had a countermeasure, but he is too lazy to see Emperor Chengde in general, according to the rules of the court, it is a big gift to pay homage, his face is as calm as in the past, and he can't see the slightest abnormality.

"Excuse me, just settle down."

Seeing that Hongqing had arrived, the smile on Emperor Chengde's face immediately became a little kinder, and he raised his hand and called out with a smile.

"Xie Huang Amalonen, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Since Emperor Chengde opened his mouth and shouted, the three shouts of long live are the proper meaning of the question, but there is nothing to say.

"Qing'er came just in time, I was worried about how to deal with that big country, but now, now that you have arrived, I can worry a lot."

Emperor Chengde was in a good mood, and his words were extraordinarily casual, but the inner meaning was not simple, that was to warn Hongqing not to shirk the difference in negotiations with the Kingdom of Great Britain.

"To be able to serve the emperor, the fortunate thing of the sons and daughters, this negotiation, the sons should do their best, but the matter involves the two countries, the sons dare not act boldly, and ask the emperor Ama to give a charter, and the sons can follow this."

Although Emperor Chengde's words were hidden, the meaning inside was very obvious, with Hongqing's IQ, how could he not hear it, but he didn't care, because he didn't plan to resign, without him, dealing with the Kingdom of Great Britain, an old maritime power that was about to become the world's hegemon, was not a simple job, this was a major event related to the future fate of the Qing Empire, and Hongqing could not rest assured that it would be handed over to others to deal with.

"Well, I don't have any regulations for this, there are only two things, one is not to fall into the national prestige of my Qing Dynasty, and the other is not to damage the interests of my 'Eight Banners Firm', in addition, one qiē can be discussed, I believe that you will be able to deal with it safely, I will not deliberately explain much, you can discuss it with Lang Shangshu Haosheng, I only look at the results, regardless of the rest."

Hearing this, Hongqing did not raise any objections, and Emperor Chengde's eyes immediately flashed a trace of self-satisfaction, but he did not have a special explanation, so he only made two general requirements.

"Yes, the retainers have all remembered."

Emperor Chengde's two requirements seem very simple on the surface, and they are also very reasonable, but in fact, they are hidden ambushes, no matter what the result of Hongqing's negotiation is, Emperor Chengde can say that there is something wrong, and he must talk about it again, so that two times and three times and one toss, it is enough to drag on for several months, so that Heda, who stayed in the Fengtai camp, also has enough room to move, and this kind of intention can not be said to be sinister, but Hongqing did not raise objections, but respectfully agreed.

"Well, Qing'er is on an errand, I am very relieved, the matter is big, so let's go and negotiate with Lang Shangshu first."

Since everything that should be explained has already been explained, Emperor Chengde doesn't want to stay in Hongqing anymore, so he waved his hand and issued an order to expel customers.

"Yes, the retainers are retired!"

Emperor Chengde's words have already reached such a point, Hongqing can no longer be postponed, so he can only bow respectfully, and then withdraw from the Heart Cultivation Palace, and rush all the way to the Li Fan Academy.

"The lower officials and others will knock on the prince."

When he arrived at the Li Fan Yuan, Hongqing did not break in directly, but according to the rules of the court, he let people into the court, and then saw that the officials of the Li Fan Yuan came out of the inside one after another under the leadership of Zuo Shilang Zongda, and bowed to Hongqing in unison.

"It's all gone, just get even."

Seeing that Lang Erheng did not come out to greet him, Hongqing's brows were slightly wrinkled, but he did not rush to ask, but raised his hand indifferently, and called out in a calm voice.

"Xiaguan waits for the prince Longen."

Hearing Hongqing's shout, the officials of the Imperial Court did not dare to slack off, and thanked them all, and then stood up separately.

"Zong Shilang, is Lang Shangshu available?"

Hongqing came to do an errand, and he was too lazy to waste his lips and tongue to do a lot of greetings, and after everyone got up, he asked a straightforward question.

"Yo, it's really unfortunate that you came, Lord Lang did come early this morning, he said that he was not feeling well, and he went home to get sick, I don't know if you have any urgent business to find Lord Lang?"

As soon as he heard Hongqing ask about Lang Erheng, Zong replied that he didn't dare to delay a little, and hurriedly explained with a smile.

"Sick? Well, this king is ordered to supervise the negotiation of diplomatic matters between the two countries with the Kingdom of Great Britain, and he must be greatly assisted by your company, I wonder if Lord Lang has any explanation for this matter? ”

As soon as he heard Lang Erheng's illness, Hongqing's heart immediately rose with a sense of realization - Lang Erheng was not sick early, not sick late, but he was sick at such a juncture, and it was clear that he was going to set up a stumbling block for Hongqing, there is no doubt that this was definitely from Emperor Chengde's confession, otherwise, Lang Erheng would not dare to play such a trick of pretending to be sick.

"Back to the prince's words, the lower officials don't know anything about it, the national letter of the Kingdom of Great Britain was personally taken care of by Lord Lang, and the lower officials and others have never interfered, I am afraid that you have to ask Lang Shangshu about this matter."

Zong Da is obviously a sleek master, and when he answered Hongqing's question, he really didn't leak, and pushed everything on Lang Erheng, who was sick.

"Since Lang Shangshu is sick, the affairs of the ministry will be shouldered by your sect first, and this king will give you three days to come up with a charter to negotiate with the Kingdom of Great Britain.

Hongqing is not a master to fool, since he can't catch Lang Erheng, the main master, Hongqing simply ignored it, and forced the task on Zong Dade's head with one sentence.

"Ah, this ......"

Zong Da was still smug, Leng Buding was forced to bow by Hongqing with such a handful of overlords, and he was immediately dumbfounded, and when he was about to say a thing or two, Hongqing had already gotten into the carriage regardless of it, and walked away, leaving Zong Da there dumbfounded......
