Chapter 1049

"Your Majesty, something has happened. Prince Ren was ambushed near Guang'an Gate..."

In the bedroom of Qianqing Palace, Emperor Chengde in a loose robe was leaning on the brocade cushion, chatting with the fourth master who was sitting sideways on the couch. Under the flattery of the fourth master, the atmosphere was relaxed It's just that the relaxation and comfort didn't last long, and Li Dequan rushed into the bedroom with a face full of panic, he didn't even care to take a breath, and he was trembling. Speech report.

"What? How's Qing'er? Tell me, tell me!"

Upon hearing that Hongqing was assassinated, Emperor Chengde's eyes turned red immediately, and before Li Dequan finished speaking, he jumped up, grabbed Li Dequan's chest and skirt, and roared angrily, that In such a state of agility, there is no trace of sickness, just like an enraged cheetah.

"Ah, ah, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Prince Ren, Prince Ren should be fine, but the current situation is not clear, slave, slave..."

Li Dequan never expected that Emperor Chengde would be so excited. Even though he was trembling with fright, he didn't dare not answer, so he could only stammer and continue to report.

"Bastard, why don't you hurry up and find out, go, go!"

Seeing that Li Dequan didn't say anything for a long time, Emperor Chengde immediately became angry, and suddenly pushed Li Dequan to the ground, stomped his feet angrily and gave an order.

"Ah, chirp!"

Facing Emperor Chengde's overwhelming anger, Li Dequan dared not be negligent in the slightest. He turned over and jumped out after rolling and crawling.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, my brother thinks that Prince Ren is auspicious, so there should be nothing wrong."

Hearing that Hong Qing was assassinated, the first reaction of the fourth master was that the third elder brother would do it, and he couldn't help but hope that the third elder brother would succeed. , as long as you use all your strength to pin the charge of assassinating Hong Qing on the third elder brother's head, you can take advantage of it. Of course, the prerequisite is that Hong Qing must die. This point, Si Ye knows it well Very, but, he definitely wouldn't reveal anything in front of Emperor Chengde, so he just pretended to be worried and said a word of comfort that was not nutritious.

"Um……"

Emperor Chengde's feelings for Hongqing are very complicated to say, there is not only the deep affection between father and son, but also the deep fear between political opponents, the two are almost mixed together, it is hard to say which part is more important. When Qing was assassinated, under the deep love between father and son, he was naturally furious, but after calming down a little, he couldn't help but hope that something really happened to Yi Hongqing, but it was hard to say that Second, Emperor Chengde was not so confused that he forgot about Jiangshan Sheji. Regarding the nonsense of the fourth master, Emperor Chengde was too lazy to respond, so he just sighed sullenly and put his hands behind his back. , paced back and forth in the bedroom at a very high speed. Seeing this, Fourth Master didn't dare to talk anymore, but he didn't want to leave, so he simply shut his mouth tightly and stood aside with his head bowed.

"Qizou Your Majesty, Prince Ren is asking to see you at the palace gate."

Not long after Li Dequan left, he hurried back to the bedroom and reported with a happy face.

"Oh? Okay, hurry up, hurry up!"

Hearing that Hongqing had arrived, Emperor Chengde's original thoughts of worrying about gain and loss were all emptied, replaced by a deep affection for Hongqing's father and son, and he didn't rush to ask the reason, and hurriedly said announced.

"twitter!"

Seeing that Emperor Chengde was so anxious, Li Dequan didn't dare to delay, he hurriedly responded respectfully, and hurriedly left the palace, and after a short while, he accompanied Hong Qing, who was in full court attire, from the outside Come in.

"My son kowtowed to Huang Ama!"

Fang Yi walked into the bedroom and saw Emperor Chengde standing beside the couch with an anxious expression on his face, Hong Qing's heartstrings trembled for no reason, a sense of sourness suddenly surged in his heart, and the corners of his eyes couldn't help but It was slightly wet, but fortunately the city was deep, and he didn't show any emotional fluctuations. He just rushed to the front of the imperial court with a slightly excited expression, and hurriedly paid homage to him.

"It's fine for Qing'er to be fine, it's fine if it's fine, come on, let's get up and talk."

Seeing that Hongqing was right in front of him, Emperor Chengde's heart sank, but the lingering fear in his heart was obviously still there, and there were inevitably a few trembling sounds in his words.

"Thank you, Emperor Amalongen, long live my emperor, long live, long live."

With Hong Qing's keenness, he could hear that the feelings contained in Emperor Chengde's words were not false, and the warmth in his heart inevitably became stronger, and the voice of the three shouts of long live was extraordinarily special. sincere.

"Qing'er, who did this? Let me tell you that I know, I will definitely destroy the nine clans!"

Emperor Chengde was worried, but his anger grew uncontrollably. Nothing else, such an act of assassinating the prince in broad daylight has already violated Emperor Chengde's limit, let alone it is the time when he is six. When the Chinese envoys came to visit, this embarrassment was thrown away. With Emperor Chengde's face-saving personality, how could he bear it.

"I don't know who wrote the words of Emperor Ama. The thing is like this. After my meeting with the envoys from the six countries today,... at that time, although the guards in the mansion reacted quickly, the first Time controlled the scene, but no whereabouts of the murderer was found, it is clear that the murderer must be a master of the rivers and lakes, if my ministers are right, it should be the remnants of the White Lotus Sect."

Although the murderer was not tracked down at the scene, Hong Qing knew that those who could do such things were nothing more than those incompetent younger brothers. Among them, the third elder brother was undoubtedly the most suspected. He didn't intend to express his doubts in his heart, and he didn't even intend to delve into the matter at this time, so he put the blame on the remnants of the White Lotus Sect.

"White Lotus Sect? It's these lingering scumbags again. I'm so angry. Hmph, pass on my order. The whole world will strictly investigate the remnants of the White Lotus Sect. Once found, they will be punished!"

As soon as he heard that the White Lotus Sect was making trouble again, Emperor Chengde's anger suddenly became stronger, and he cursed angrily with a livid face.

"Your Majesty, my younger brother thinks that this case may not be that simple, and there must be some hidden story behind it!"

Just as Emperor Chengde finished speaking, Fourth Master, who had been standing silently by the side, suddenly flashed out and said in a loud voice.

"Oh? Fourth brother means..."

In the past year and a half, under Si Ye's spare no effort to please and flatter him, Emperor Chengde seems to have forgotten the unhappiness of Si Ye's competition with him back then, and he has become more and more fond of him, even though Si Ye's interruption seems to be It was a bit abrupt, and Emperor Chengde didn't care too much about it, but followed his words and asked half of the words.

"Your Majesty clearly learned that today's meeting between Prince Ren and the envoys of the six countries is a major event in the court. Even if the people have heard of it, they will not know the specific meeting place, and it is even more difficult to know that after the meeting, Prince Ren will definitely go to the palace to face the saint, so we can know this. The reason why the assassination can be successful is that people in the officialdom must participate in it. This is one of them. Furthermore, according to what Prince Ren said, the assassins used military grenades. It has something to do with the army, if it is not thoroughly investigated, I fear that the capital will not be at peace."

The fourth master obviously saw through Hong Qing's idea of ​​trying to make a big deal into a small one, and he didn't want to let such a turmoil be exposed so easily, and he had already thought up the provocative words. When Dedi asked, he immediately explained it calmly.

"Well, what the fourth brother said is true. It seems that this matter is indeed full of inside stories. If it is not thoroughly investigated, there will be endless troubles. How does Qing'er think about this matter?"

Although the fourth master's thoughts are not right, but the truths he said are all to the point. Emperor Chengde will not fail to understand, and when he understands it, he will be afraid in the future. Nothing else, today Someone could use a grenade to assassinate Hong Qing, but no one would carry cannons to bombard the palace tomorrow, if so, Emperor Chengde might not even be able to sleep soundly.

"Returning to the emperor Ama, I think that what the fourth uncle said is indeed reasonable, but at the time when the envoys from the six countries are visiting, it is not appropriate to go to war, and after the envoys from the six countries leave, it is useless to discuss it again. Late."

With Hong Qing's IQ, how could it be impossible not to see that the fourth master had malicious intentions at this moment, and simply wanted to muddy the water completely, but even though she knew this, Hong Qing couldn't keep her eyes open in front of Emperor Chengde. If the eyes are telling nonsense, they can only use the visit of the envoys from the six countries as a shield.

"Your nephew's words are wrong. People from the six countries are nothing more than turning barbarians from outsiders. Why do you need to be polite? You must know that you must first settle down when you fight against outsiders. This is justified. Today, thieves can openly assassinate your nephew, but tomorrow they don't know who they will attack." Let’s get into trouble, if we don’t investigate thoroughly, I’m afraid the whole capital will not have a peaceful day, right?”

The fourth master's whole mind was to disrupt the situation, and he wished that things would get bigger and better, so how could it be possible for Hong Qing's idea of ​​calming things down to come true? No, Hong Qing's voice had just fallen, and he didn't wait for Emperor Chengde to express his opinion , Fourth Master interrupted from the side with burning words.

"Well……"

When the fourth master opened his mouth like this, Emperor Chengde, who originally planned to agree with Hong Qingzhi's suggestion, immediately hesitated. Nothing else, in Emperor Chengde's view, what the two said had their own reasons, but they looked at the problem from different angles. , do you really want to say who is right and who is wrong? It's really hard to make a conclusion for a while. Of course, in the eyes of Emperor Chengde, it seems that the fourth master's suggestion is more preferable. After all, the six countries are just barbarians. It has nothing to do with the overall situation if we can agree or fail to agree, but Hong Qing's face can't just be swept away like this. If Hong Qing is really annoyed, Emperor Chengde really doesn't know how to deal with himself Because of this, Emperor Chengde pondered for a long time, but never made a decision...
