Chapter 846 Forbearance for the Country ([-])

It is near midsummer, the bamboo forest is green and straight, the lotus in the pond is in full bloom, the dragonflies are playing in the water, and the butterflies are dancing. These scenes are undoubtedly beautiful, but what is even more beautiful is the sound of the piano. In the pavilion, with ten fingers flicking lightly, a piece of "Yangchun Baixue" resounded leisurely, a quiet mood of the empty valley hovered in the back garden, and the sound of the piano was like this, even if Hongqing was full of thoughts at the moment, she couldn't help but feel it Overwhelmed, he stopped his feet and stood quietly outside the pavilion, listening silently, and his restless mood slowly calmed down.

"My lord is very worried. Could it be that something has happened to the man in the palace again?"

The song was over, but Hong Qing was still intoxicated in that peaceful mood, standing still, but it was Old Master Chen who was playing the piano who spoke first.

"Returning to the master, the disciple is ordered to supervise the negotiations with the Kingdom of Great Britain, and has temporarily handed over the reorganization of the new army to Heda."

Hearing Old Master Chen's question, Hong Qing recovered from her reverie, smiled calmly, walked up the steps in front of the pavilion, and bowed to Old Master Chen with a peaceful voice replied.

"Well, since the lord came back so early, Lang Erheng must have pretended to be sick and hid himself."

Even though Hongqing didn't mention what happened to her when she went to Lifan Academy, Old Master Chen explained the strangeness in one word.

"Master is right, that guy said he had a sudden illness, and he ran away before the apprentice arrived at the Li Fan Court."

Hong Qing had known for a long time that Old Master Chen must have guessed the truth, so she was not surprised, after explaining something with a smile, she lifted the hem of her robe and sat down opposite to Old Master Chen.

"Oh, as expected, that guy dared to do this, nothing more than the idea of ​​the man in the palace. This is to drag the prince into this matter, so that Heda can smoothly intervene in the army. If that is the case, What is the prince planning to do?"

Old Master Chen was not in a hurry to speak out to give Hongqing advice, but asked a question like an exam.

"Let it be as it is, as long as you don't miss the mission, everything is easy to talk about. If there is something wrong, I have no choice but to ask some people to calm down."

Over the past few days, Hong Qing has really had enough of Emperor Chengde's continuous petty actions. Although the old master Chen calmed down his restless mood, the words he said at this time are still full of murderous intent.

"The time has not yet come, the prince still has to be patient."

Even though Hong Qing didn't explain who was going to ask someone to calm down, Old Master Chen understood it immediately, but he obviously didn't agree with Hong Qing's drastic approach to deal with this matter.

"Um……"

In fact, there is no need for Old Master Chen to mention something, Hong Qing herself knows that this is really not a good time to play "Xuanwu Gate Change". Yes, with a powerful new army at hand, if Hong Qing really wants to go her own way, If it is successful, the consequences will be chaos in the world. Even if the new army is invincible, it will take a few years to clean up the mess, let alone a civil war. Out of these considerations, Hongqing tolerated Emperor Chengde's provocations all the time, but patience has a limit after all, and Hongqing is not a saint, nor does he have the so-called "cultivation" of self-sacrifice. Hong Qing's endurance has been worn down by Dedi's repeated small actions. Because of this, even though he knew that what Old Master Chen said was right, Hong Qing never expressed his opinion, but was just sullen. let out a sound.

"If the lord really wants to show something, then use Lang Erheng as a target, and a little punishment is enough. Presumably the one in the palace won't have any objections."

Just looking at Hongqing's appearance, Old Master Chen knew that Hongqing was really bored by Emperor Chengde these days, and he couldn't help worrying about it in his heart, really worried that Hongqing would play out of nowhere For the big one, he considered his tone and tried to persuade him tactfully.

"Master, I laughed. This disciple is not a person who doesn't know good and bad, and he won't care about mere lackeys. Both left and right are for the sake of the state, so let's bear with each other for the sake of the country."

Although Old Master Chen concealed it very well, Hong Qing could clearly feel the deep worry in the old master's heart, so she couldn't help but be impressed by it, smiled wryly, and stopped mentioning the matter of fighting back.

"It's good that the prince can think like this. After the prince puts down the chaos in the northwest, it's almost time to settle the account. It's not too late to settle everything until then."

Although Hong Qing had expressed something, Old Master Chen was obviously not too relieved, so he hurriedly gave another warning.

"Master has taught you the right thing, and the disciples will remember it."

Hearing what Old Master Chen said, Hong Qing's eyes immediately burst out with a murderous look. Of course, this was not aimed at Old Master Chen, but because of the situation after the peace of the Northwest. Although the murderous aura is fleeting, the aura in it is horrifying. Even when the sun is shining brightly, it still makes people feel chills, even for Old Master Chen. The people of the city government couldn't help being horrified...

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is mid-June. For nearly half a month, the court situation is still chaotic, and the criminal department is full of excitement. Up and down are playing hide-and-seek and stumbling tricks with all their strength, the two sides are fighting back and forth, the tossing is really not small, as for Fengtai Daying, it is also in full swing—— The second round of expansion of the new army has officially started. The total force will be expanded from the original 3 to 12. The various problems brought about by it can be said to be numerous. Even if there is a detailed expansion plan, soldiers, workers, households The officials and officials have also been fully mobilized, but there are too many aspects involved, and the troubles in connection are always inevitable. Ever since, there have been piles of gossip and troubles, but Heda, the new The admiral of the Fengtai camp had limited abilities and was not very familiar with the various matters of the new army. The entire Fengtai camp was completely in chaos. shape.

Who is Heda? He was the commander of the guards of Emperor Chengde in his early years, and he belonged to his cronies. Heda, however, did not dare to ignore the grievances of the generals, and immediately sent the old thirteen to the Fengtai camp to take charge of all matters related to the whole army, and rewarded the generals for a while. The matter was suppressed, however, it was unavoidable that this bad debt was placed on Hong Qing's head again. It is said that Emperor Chengde scolded Hong Qing in private, saying that Hong Qing was guilty of meritorious deeds, but Well, such rumors are just rumors, and no one knows whether they are true or not. At least in public, Emperor Chengde never said that Hong Qing was wrong.

The rumors of Emperor Chengde scolding his mother, Hongqing has many ears and eyes, so naturally he has known about it for a long time. Although he has never investigated it, Hongqing knows that it is true in all likelihood, just like Emperor Chengde. She has a good temperament to vent her anger on others, it is just a common thing to slap the table and scold others, the reason why she didn't dare to blatantly scold him is because she was worried that Hong Qing would be completely angered, for this, Hong Qing is really helpless, there is no other way The impeachment of Heda by the generals was really not instigated by Hong Qing, it was entirely the result of Heda's own lack of ability, but this matter cannot be explained clearly, and secondly, Hong Qing Qing didn't even bother to explain, Emperor Chengde was blindfolded by prejudice at this moment, he could think as much as he liked, in the final analysis, the factor that restricts each other is not the anger value, but the strength value At least, before Emperor Chengde had mastered enough strength, he absolutely didn't dare to turn his face against each other. It's not unreasonable to maintain the superficial kung fu of mutual tolerance for the country.

"My lord, Lang Shangshu is here."

As the saying goes, the tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop. For the past half month, Hong Qing has been following the rules. Every day, except for the morning and evening, all of them spend time in the Lifan courtyard. Qing also didn't complain much, and in the name of carrying out business according to the order, he called Zong Da and others to conduct more than ten rounds of negotiations on negotiation matters, and generally finalized the reception matters, related negotiation procedures, and the general bottom line of his own side. And formed a complete charter, submitted it to the imperial court for Emperor Chengde's review, but never thought that it had been three days since the charter was sent up, and he didn't see any instructions from Emperor Chengde, but he was "sick" for a long time The Japanese Lang Erheng appeared.

"Xuan."

Now that the articles of association have been submitted, Hongqing actually has nothing to do before getting a reply—naturally, he can’t go back to Fengtai Daying, and it’s not good if he has an errand. Staying at home, and in order to avoid suspicion, it is really not easy for other ministries to run around. As for the military aircraft department, Hongqing doesn't want to go either. No, after entering the palace early this morning to pay his respects, Hong Qing went back to the Li Fan Yuan, flipping through the negotiating rules that she had been familiar with for a long time, and frowning suddenly when Ding Song came to report , not for anything else, just because Hongqing had already guessed what Lang Erheng's intentions were when he came here, but he didn't express anything, just uttered a word in a slightly cold voice.

"twitter!"

Hearing that Hongqing's voice was quite wrong, Ding Song didn't dare to be slighted, he hurriedly responded, and hurried out of the office. After a while, he saw Lang Erheng come out from behind the screen at the door. The smile on his face is fake no matter how you look at it, without any sincerity at all...
