Kowloon wins

Chapter 108
"Sa Shangshu, in your opinion, the deviation is so large, how should we deal with it?"

Samuha wanted to hide, but Hong Qing didn't intend to give him this chance. He tilted his head and kicked the ball to Samuha's feet unceremoniously.

"Little prince Mingjian, I think this matter may be misunderstood. Let's put it this way, although there are many officials in the Ministry of Industry, there are also many projects all over the world. After all, there are things that cannot be taken care of. It's not that the officials don't want to investigate, it's really a shortage of manpower, let's take this matter as an example, although the project is not big, but it involves a lot of people, and it's the place where the Holy Majesty Xiuxia is, so we must strive for perfection, A few mistakes are no small matter, those craftsmen are careful, but it is inevitable that there will be mistakes, so that more materials will be used, and it is reasonable that it does not meet the budget."

When asked by Hong Qing, Samuha couldn't pretend to be confused anymore, he had no choice but to laugh and explain indiscriminately.

"Oh, so that's the case, but Xiao Wang misunderstood."

What Samuha said sounds very reasonable, but in fact it’s nonsense. It’s okay to deceive others. If you want to deceive Hong Qing, obviously there is no way. Uncle Ha and his nephew have another purpose, so they are happy to give up.

"It's okay, the little prince has just arrived, some misunderstandings are inevitable, it's okay, it's okay."

How could Samuha not know what kind of virtue Tasian is? She didn't think about whether there would be any ambush behind Hong Qing, so she said something to comfort Hong Qing with a smile.

"Well, misunderstandings are inevitable, but we must be vigilant. If there are too many misunderstandings, the consequences will be disastrous. What do you think, Sa Shangshu?"

Before Samuha understood what was going on, Hong Qing suddenly changed the subject and asked with a smile.

"Naturally, it's just..."

Samuha is an old bureaucrat, and he is very familiar with this kind of maneuvering. When he heard this bad word, the smile that just floated on his face froze in an instant, but he couldn't say that Hong Qing said If it's not right, it can only be awkwardly faltering.

"Sa Shangshu is indeed a generation of public loyalty to the country. As officials of the imperial court, we eat the king's salary, and we must not neglect our duties when we are loyal to the king. Since I was sent by the emperor's law, I came to this capital. Since the appointment of the envoy of the Qing Dynasty, I should be trembling. If Sa Shang's letter is trustworthy, from today on, I will take care of the affairs of the envoy of Dushui Qing. However, all affairs without the signature of the envoy will be invalid. Would Sa Shangshu not mind?"

After going around in such a big circle, Hong Qing finally put what she wanted on the table. Although the words were a question, they were full of firmness that could not be refused.

"This……"

Hearing what Hong Qing said, Samuha finally came to his senses. Would he not agree? Ta Si'an is still stuck in Hong Qing's hands, but if Hong Qing sent Ta Si'an to the Ministry of Criminal Justice, the consequences would be dire It's not as serious as usual. If you really agree to this, but you are really unwilling and unwilling, you will be stupid on the spot for a while.

"Does Shangshu think that there is something wrong, huh?"

At this moment, Hongqing would not be polite to Samuha, and did not give him room to think, and forced Samuha into a corner with one word.

"Well, the little prince needs to know that Du Shuiqing envoy chief has a very important matter. It's not that I believe in the little prince. It's just, hehe, it's just that the young prince is new here, so he should learn first. After a while, I will send the whole Handing over to the little prince to take care of it, so it can be done?"

Du Shuiqing envoy is Samuha's lifeblood, he was unwilling to hand it over to Hong Qing just like that, after pondering for a while, he politely rejected Hong Qing's request, using a tactic to delay the attack.

"I'm afraid it's not good for Sa Shangshu to think so thoroughly. It's just that I have gained a lot from this study. It should not be difficult to deal with the affairs of the secretary. If Sa Shangshu doesn't believe it, you can take an exam and read this Can Beizi handle it?"

Although Samuha was good at scheming, Hong Qing was not so easy to give in. She smiled confidently and suggested calmly.

"This..., that's okay, if the little prince can really do it, I can't believe it. Even if there is a slight mistake, it doesn't matter. If you study for a while, you can handle it if you think about it. Just presumptuous..."

Although Samuha has heard the name of Hongqing as a child prodigy for a long time, he is not convinced in his heart. In his opinion, Hongqing has some cleverness, but when it comes to the incomparably cumbersome practical work, Samuha is really not convinced. Xin Hongqing was able to respond correctly in this short period of more than [-] days, and after a moment of pondering, she readily agreed.

"Sa Shangshu wait a minute. As the saying goes, you are not afraid of not knowing the goods, but you are afraid of comparing goods. If you want to say whether it is right or not, you must have a reference after all. Since Mr. Ta has been in charge of the affairs of the department for many years, you must be familiar with all matters. , then ask Sa Shangshu to come up with a question, Ben Beizi and Master Ta will be compared together, Sa Shangshu thinks this is possible?"

Before Samuha finished speaking, Hong Qing waved her hand and interrupted with a smile.

"Well, then let's compare, the official will come up with the question now."

Samuha has a good idea of ​​Tasian's level. Although he is not a good player, after all, he has been in the company for many years, and he still has some confidence in the practice of regulations. Samuha really does not believe that Hong Qing can win. .

"San'er, wait for me with pen and ink, please ask Sa Shangshu to write a question."

Hongqing's memory is already excellent, and these days, she has studied all the articles and examples of Du Shuiqing envoy, and she has the confidence in her heart, so how could she be afraid of Samuha's making things difficult? Hearing that Samuha agreed to his proposal, he couldn't help being happy, and with a wave of his hand, ordered Liu San'er to get all the pens, ink, papers and inkstones ready.

"twitter!"

Hong Qing ordered, Liu San'er didn't dare to neglect her, she hastily responded, and brought out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone that she had prepared long ago, and put it in front of Samuha.

"Ah."

Having been forced to the point where there was no room for change, Samuha had no choice but to shake his head helplessly after making a displeased groan, and picked up a pen to write quickly on the paper.

"Sa Shangshu, please verify."

Samuha is worthy of being a veteran of the Ministry of Industry for nearly 20 years, and he is very familiar with the affairs of each department, but after a short time, he has already written more than ten questions in a row. After he finished writing, Liu Saner immediately took them. I copied it carefully, and then handed it to Samuha in a respectful manner, asking for instructions carefully.

"Well, that's all."

Samuha glanced at ten lines at a glance, and saw that Liu San'er's copy was the same as what he had written, so he didn't say much, just let out a low voice.

"Minxing, go, pass on Ben Beizi's order, and ask everyone in Dushuiqing envoy to gather in the courtyard, and say that Ben Beizi will compete with Master Ta on the spot to decide the affairs of the division."

Hong Qing's idea was to grab the class and seize the power. The bigger the incident, the more beneficial it was for him. Seeing that the exam papers were out, Hong Qing didn't ask Samuha for instructions. He gave the order from the ground.

As soon as Hong Qing gave the order like no one else, Samuha's face immediately darkened, his face twitched a few times, as if he wanted to speak, but at the end, he still didn't say anything, just the chill in his eyes But it suddenly became more prosperous, but what he said earlier was too full, and now it's hard to change his words. Moreover, he also worried that Hong Qing would use Ta Si'an as a trick, so he could only be helpless remained silent.

"twitter!"

Li Minxing has always only listened to Hong Qing's orders, so how could he care about how cruel Samuha's eyes were when he cast his eyes over him? After a respectful reply, he led several palace guards out of the room, and after a while, Amidst the commotion outside, the officials of Du Shuiqing envoy in the yamen crowded into the courtyard in disorder, chattering nonstop.

"Sa Shangshu, Master Ta, please go!"

Li Minxing's work was extremely efficient, and within a short while all the envoys of Du Shuiqing and others were summoned to the courtyard. After getting their report, Hong Qing stood up without any delay, and walked towards Samuha. The uncles and nephews waved their hands and said please with a smile.

"My lord, please!"

The matter has come to this point, even if Samuha is unwilling, he can only make a noise helplessly, and return a salute with a smile on his face.

Hong Qing nodded, without giving in any more, strode out of the office, went straight to the steps in front of the patio, looked around at everyone, and then said unhurriedly: "Everyone, Sa Shangshu is out. For these questions, let Ben Beizi and Lord Ta compete, whoever wins will be in charge of the affairs of the department, so I invite all the gentlemen to be witnesses."

"Om..."

When hearing the order from Li Minxing and others earlier, all the officials were skeptical, but now hearing Hong Qing's own confirmation, the pot exploded, and the voices of chaos became one.

"Sa Shangshu, can we start now?"

The guards of the royal palace moved very quickly, just after Hong Qing finished announcing the news, they had already placed all the necessary things such as documents and chairs in the hall in front of the courtyard, seeing this, Hong Qing ignored all the officials Discussing their chaos, he bowed his hands to Samuha and asked for instructions very politely.

"Well, let's start."

Hong Qing's airs have been set up, no matter how angry Samuha is in his heart, at this moment, he can only passively follow Hong Qing's pace.

In all fairness, although Samuha is not a clean and honest person, he still has some material in his stomach. The dozen or so questions are quite level, covering almost every aspect of every part of the Du Shuiqing Commissioner. Breadth, it is not easy to answer perfectly, but for Hong Qing who has been working behind closed doors for many days, it is not impossible. In less than half an hour, he had already completed the exam questions first, but at this time, Ta Si'an was still answering the questions in a panic. The sweat on his forehead undoubtedly showed his embarrassment and uneasiness. Volume, the superiority and inferiority between each other is very clear.

"The little prince has won."

After Hong Qing had finished answering for a long time, Ta Si'an barely managed to finish the questions. The two papers were placed in front of Samuha, no need to read them carefully, and only glanced a few times. Already knowing who is superior or inferior, even though he was unwilling, he could only hold on and announce the final result. As soon as this statement came out, all the people below immediately became noisy again.
