Chapter 393: The Old Man's Board (3)

The fourth master is ruthless, this is to trap the dead without losing their lives!

Although Hongqing knelt by the wall obediently, he was not thinking about it seriously, but he focused all his attention on the reactions of the elder brothers, and when he saw the fourth master taking the lead in mourning, he was really angry in his heart. However, the third master and even the eighth master are about to be unlucky, as for Hongqing himself, he is afraid that the board will be heavier again, how can Hongqing not be annoyed, but at this moment, there is really no possibility for Hongqing to make a move, so he can only sigh helplessly, and have to pin all his hopes on the performance of the third master.

"Yinzhi, let's say, why is the situation in Jingshi like this, huh?"

Sure enough, as Hongqing expected, the old man went directly to the third master, no side, the so-called deeper the love, the more the hate, originally, the old man planned to train the third master as a successor, if it wasn't for the fact that the matter of going to the year of Rehe was too violent, the old man was ready to let the third master enter the East Palace, and then there was a disturbance of the eighth master gathering the power of the ministers to force the palace, which made the old man wary of all the brothers, and he also stopped the heart of directly letting the third master enter the East Palace, but he did not give up the plan to support the third master in the future, It's just that I want to protect myself first, so there will be the scene of the prince's dictatorship, in order to take back and release too much authority, this idea is undoubtedly good, but the result is such a mess now, obviously, this matter alone is not the eighth master's side can not make trouble at all, it is clear that the third master is also involved in it, and may even be the initiator, this situation obviously makes the old man extremely annoyed, and the third master unfortunately became the first person to be held accountable by the old man.

"Back to the Emperor Ama, this matter is indeed at fault, when Qing'er brought the case back to Beijing, if the son insisted a little and did not let Qi Shiwu act arbitrarily, the matter would not be corrupted, but Shi Erchen was suspicious, failed to adhere to the principle, was too embarrassed, did not dare to defend himself, and asked the emperor to punish him."

As early as the moment when he saw Hongqing being punished and kneeling in the corner, the third master already knew that he was afraid that he would not be able to escape some accountability, even so, when the old man was the first to point to him, the third master's heart couldn't help but roll through a panic, and his eyes involuntarily glanced at Hongqing, just saw the hint of Hongqing's hand, and the panic in his heart suddenly decreased a little, and he knelt up straight in a hurry, admitting his mistake with a sincere and fearful face.

"Doubts? If you are selfless, and you are very suspicious, you say, "What are you afraid of?" ”

The third master's confession was already very sincere, but the old man did not mean to let the third master go at all, and unceremoniously reprimanded him.

The old man's words sounded terrible at first glance, but in fact, there was an obvious hint inside, that is, to ask the third master to put all the blame on Qi Shiwu's head, for the sake of it, naturally it is the face of the heavenly family, and the prince can't abolish Gangli, and he will be deposed again in a year, then it is really a bit of a child's play, the old man is such a good-faced person, naturally he refuses to let the world see the joke in vain, because of this, even if he knows that the case of the emperor's tomb is a conspiracy played by the prince, he can only pretend not to know, not only he himself will not be held accountable, I have to suppress the urge of the brothers to pursue it, there is no doubt that it is undoubtedly the best choice to press the third master to open this head.

"Huang Ama Mingjian, the prince's brother strongly recommended Qi Shiwu, and his son, as a subordinate, felt that it was inappropriate, but he didn't dare to fight, but he was really worried that the prince's brother would be strange, and he was afraid of hurting his brother's harmony.

The third master is a smart person, although he is lacking in strategy, and the pattern is not big, but his ability to observe the face is not bad, the old man has said it to such an obvious point, how could he not understand, and when he answered the old man's question, he was also very smooth, not only picking up his own small means, but at the same time, he was also born to cover up for the prince, as for the fate of the unlucky Qi Shiwuhui, it is not within the scope of the third master's consideration.

"How many times have you said it, you have to act impartially, and you are selfless and fearless, like Qi Shiwu and other dogs, how can you be the candidate for the chief judge, you know that you disdain it and do not admonish, that is, there is a fault, since there is a fault, you have to be punished, so good, I will punish you for a year, you can be convinced, huh?"

The third master is so upright, the old man is not good to attack him again, besides, this matter really has to be investigated to the end, and the old man himself can't get out of it, not to mention the side, without the connivance of his old man, how dare the prince act so wantonly, besides, Qi Shiwu can be the chief judge, it's not the old man's own permission, really speaking, what's the matter with the third master? Of course, the truth is so, but the old man obviously doesn't plan to reason with his brothers, and he arbitrarily regards Qi Shiwu as the culprit, as for the punishment of the third master, it is just raised high and gently fallen, which is basically insignificant.

"Emperor Ama is lenient, and the son admits punishment."

This is just a fine for a year, the big stone hanging in the heart of the third master even if it falls to the ground, there is no side, a year of 20,000 taels of silver is a lot, but it can't stand the business on the other side of Hongqing The money is rolling, and the subsidy for the family is more than 200,000 taels every year.

"It's good to admit the punishment, and you don't bother to bother with you, Yinxi!"

After punishing the third master, the old man set his eyes on the eighth master who was kneeling in the second row, frowned, and nodded in a cold tone.

"The son is here."

When it comes to scheming and the city, the eighth master is still above the third master, since he has seen the old man's calculation early, he is still counting on the third master father and son to play a striker, so that he can toss with the old man, and he can also profit from it, this kind of intention is undoubtedly beautiful, but unfortunately the reality is cruel, the third master and his son have no resistance at all, so they easily admit the punishment, and now, how can the eighth master not know that the general trend has gone, his heart is really dark and tight, and he is thinking about countermeasures. Leng Buding heard the old man's name, and he didn't dare to think about it anymore, so he hurriedly knelt up straight and responded respectfully.

"Tell me, what kind of moths are going on at the end of the Criminal Department?"

If you want to suppress the huge turmoil, it is obviously not enough to rely on tough measures, and the old man knows this in his own heart - the old man is the Beijing master who rushed back in civilian clothes the day before yesterday, and when he arrived in Beijing, he did not return to the palace, nor did he go to Changchun Garden, but first went to the Fengtai camp, and replaced the original Fengtai camp commander Cheng Kun with Wudan, and spent a day to summon the generals of each battalion to talk, what he wanted was to control a strong army, so as to be adapted, but in the final analysis, it was a policy to forcibly suppress the chaos between the DPRK and China with the army, and it was not a last resort. The old man will definitely not do this, obviously, if he can suppress the two sources of chaos of the third master and the eighth master, he can avoid the further deterioration of the situation, and now, the third master has been satisfied, and the old man can free up his hands to start pressing the eighth master.

Is it in? Or retreat? This has become a difficult problem in front of the eighth master, entering, since you can make Yinren's ugly face public to the world, once this is the case, Yinren's position as the prince will inevitably not be guaranteed, but the old man is afraid that it is inevitable that he will be angry, in this case, whether he can enter the East Palace, the eighth master is really not much sure at all, after all, the lessons of the past year are still there, the eighth master really does not have the courage to take this risk again, but if the eighth master gives up, but he is unwilling, the price of this plan is really not small, Just the resignation of the two important positions of the governor of Fujian and the admiral of the Guangdong Navy is enough to make the eighth master feel heartache, not to mention that he also used a lot of hole cards of the criminal department this time, and he wants to finish his work in one battle, and now if he is soft, won't all the efforts have to be put into water?

"Back to Huang Ama, the son suffered from a cold some time ago, and he has been sick at home, that is, he got better two days ago, and he really doesn't know the reason for the affairs in the ministry."

The eighth master thought a lot, but he was not slow to answer the old man's question, and simply asked a question and didn't know, obviously, the eighth master still wanted to gamble in the end, but he was very wise not to come forward in person, but wanted to leave the matter of showing up to the nine or eleven masters.

"Well, if you are sick, you have to rest well, and you have never forced people, so you will go back to the house first to raise it, and when your body is well, it is not too late to go to the ministry to run errands."

The eighth master wanted to get through the trick, but unfortunately the old man didn't plan to let him go away, and he wanted to send the eighth master back to the house to recuperate.

"Yes, the sons thank the emperor Ama for their compassion, and the sons and daughters will retire."

The eighth master didn't expect the old man to be so unsparing, as soon as he heard this, his heart suddenly sank to the bottom, and he had the heart to defend himself, but he still didn't have the courage to do so, and in desperation, he could only thank him unwillingly, and he wanted to get up and quit.

"Huang Ama is slow, the retainers have something to say!"

Seeing that the old man was so ruthless and wanted to drive the eighth master away, the tenth master couldn't bear it anymore, suddenly knelt up straight, and shouted loudly.
