Kowloon wins

Chapter 1150 Self-inflicted can't live ([-])

"Your Majesty clearly learned that the old minister thinks that this matter is of great importance, so he must not ignore it. It is right to send troops to conquer and suppress, but we should be more cautious about how many troops we send and who leads them. This old minister is so shallow, please forgive me." Judge."

Fourth Master originally didn't want to come to the meeting today, but he still came in the end. There is no one else. Among the senior officials of the court, there is no one of his Siye's confidantes. Resolution, but absolutely unable to accurately judge Hongqing's true intentions, so, after thinking for a long time, Fourth Master finally rushed to the Hall of Mental Cultivation. Originally, he just wanted to come with his ears, not He planned to talk too much in the court meeting, but since He Hongqing asked the question in court, he had to answer it, so he could only make false statements with a serious face and deal with it.

"Well, what the fourth uncle said is an old-fashioned way of seeking the country. That being the case, according to what the fourth uncle sees, who should lead the army and how many troops must be sent to ensure that the ground in Shanxi is safe and sound?"

What the fourth master said sounds reasonable, but in fact it's all nonsense. The eyes of the officials looked at him with a sense of ambiguity, but Hong Qing nodded with deep conviction, He praised fourth master very warmly, and took advantage of the opportunity to draw the topic deeper.

"Your Majesty is wise, the old minister is not very proficient in military strategy, so I really dare not speak nonsense."

Fourth Master actually wished that Hong Qing would send all the soldiers from the Fengtai camp to Shanxi as soon as possible, but he just wanted to return to his thoughts. Fourth Master never dared to say such words, so he could only play tricks Take Tai Chi.

"It doesn't matter, Fourth Uncle is free to speak out what he thinks, I just listen to it."

Fourth master's Tai Chi is very beautiful, but unfortunately Hong Qing doesn't follow his tricks at all, and a simple sentence blocks the possibility of fourth master's continued skating.

"Since Your Majesty has given you an order, the old minister has the courage to act presumptuously. From the old minister's point of view, the White Lotus Sect's rebellion seems to be a trivial matter, but it may cause a spark to start a prairie fire. It is justified to put it out quickly. What should be done is that light conquest and suppression is not the best strategy, and it must be supplemented by appeasement, if this is the case, the leader must be a person with both wisdom and courage, so as to ensure that the chaos can be quickly put down without leaving any future troubles."

This was all forced by Hong Qing to such an extent that even if Fourth Master didn't want to say it, he couldn't do it. In desperation, he could only give an analysis opinion that barely seemed passable based on the facts.

"Fourth Uncle's words are very kind, but I don't know who the wise and courageous person that Fourth Uncle said is? I am very curious, so I ask Fourth Uncle to speak frankly."

Hong Qing seemed to be quite satisfied with Fourth Master's suggestion, but seeing him nodding in approval, she asked further in a very warm manner.

"Returning to Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that Prince Yong is both wise and brave, and he is the best candidate to command the army."

The fourth master was not prepared to speak when he came here. In the end, he really has no generals to recommend, but he was forced to be the old thirteen who hadn't appeared in court for a long time. Pushed out.

"Well, the thirteenth uncle has heard it all. The fourth uncle recommended you. Would you like to share my worries?"

Obviously what Hong Qing was waiting for was the words of the fourth master, there is nothing else, although Hong Qing issued an edict to let all the officials above the first rank come to discuss matters, but in the bottom of her heart, she did not expect that the old thirteen and the fourth master These two guys who haven't heard from him for a long time will also come together, and they will inevitably have suspicions in their hearts. Now that the fourth master really recommended the old thirteen, although Hong Qing was secretly vigilant in his heart, but his face was full of suspicion. It was a kind of tranquility, and he never commented on the recommendation of the fourth master, so he left the topic to the old thirteen.

"Your Majesty has learned from you that it is a real minister's blessing to be able to share His Majesty's worries. However, the minister is deeply ill and has become embarrassing. I really dare not take on this important task. Please forgive me."

The old thirteen is a sober person, even though Hong Qing's question was very kind, but he could hear something wrong in it at the first time, and his heart jumped suddenly, how could he dare to accept the responsibility of leading the army , hurriedly snatched out of the row, and politely refused in fear.

"Well... Uncle Thirteen is a real person. Since he is sick, I can't force it. If so, I think it's better to let Xiao Zhenshan's second division go to Shanxi. As for appeasement Well, let Miao Cheng, the governor of Shanxi, handle it, what do you love dears think?"

The reason why Hong Qing forced the fourth master and the old thirteen was to see if there was any connection between the two. Naturally, it was impossible for the old thirteen to lead the army. It can be seen from his words and deeds that he and the fourth master have never been linked together, but after all, it is a taboo for the clan to lead the army, so it is necessary to be on guard.

"Your Majesty Shengming."

Now that Hong Qing has said something to such an extent, how dare all the ministers have any objections, so Qi Qi can only praise the last sentence and let it go.

"Let's settle this matter first. Later, I will make a decree. Now that the country is deploying troops everywhere, I think that the fourth uncle's health is already good, and he will return to the Ministry of Households to help me take care of it. For a moment, don’t miss out on military expenditures everywhere.”

Hong Qing seemed to be extremely satisfied with Fourth Master's previous performance, and after discussing the matter, she explained to Fourth Master very kindly.

"Yes, the old minister complies."

The reason why the fourth master came to participate in the discussion today is not only to confirm whether Hongqing is aware of her own arrangement, but also to come out of the mountain again. After all, the big plan he arranged has already begun. In order to ensure the final victory, Fourth Master also needs a suitable name to coordinate and arrange the forces hidden in various places. Now, since Hong Qing has explained it like this, it is obviously in line with Fourth Master's intentions. I promised myself.

"It's settled, all the gentlemen are busy."

Now that the discussion was over, Hong Qing didn't bother to say any more, and gave the order to evict the guests with a wave of her hand.

"Your Majesty is wise, I will take my leave."

Hearing Hong Qing's words, all the ministers and workers dared not delay a bit, they all gave praises, and then they all left the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and went their separate ways, but Fang Bao stayed behind. at last.

"Mr. Linggao, do you have anything else to report?"

Seeing Fang Bao's delay, Hong Qing immediately raised her brows, obviously guessing what Fang Bao wanted to say, but she didn't say anything to point it out, she just asked calmly.

"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that if something is abnormal, it must be a monster. For some things, it is better to prepare early."

Hearing Hong Qing's question, Fang Bao didn't dare to neglect her, so she hurriedly bowed and pointedly made a point.

"Mr. Linggao is right. Heaven's sins are forgiven, but self-inflicted sins cannot live. I have already given the way. If others don't want to take the way to survive, then I have no choice but to send the Buddha to the West."

Although Fang Bao's hint was cryptic, how could Hong Qing not be able to hear it, but he didn't pay much attention to it, just smiled calmly, and gave a meaningful answer as well.

"Your Majesty is wise, the old minister will retire."

After hearing what Hong Qing said, Fang Bao stopped talking, bowed respectfully, and left...

"Sir, that's how it happened, you see..."

Two flowers bloomed, each representing a branch, not to mention Hong Qing and Fang Bao's suggestive exchange, but said that although the fourth master received an errand from the household department again, he didn't go to the household department to be a director, but went straight to the office. After returning to his home, he told Wu Sidao who had already been waiting in the study in the inner courtyard about the course of today's court meeting.

"Is there any room for the prince to turn back?"

Wu Sidao did not answer Fourth Master's question directly, but asked back calmly.

"This..., um, I'm afraid it will be difficult, but the odds..."

Naturally, there is no way to turn back. Even if there is no rebellion at this time, once the foreign war stops, Hong Qing will no longer allow the fourth master to occupy the court, and severe punishment is an inevitable move. For this, the fourth master is also Did you know it well? In other words, at such a juncture, Fourth Master would have to.

"Since it is imperative, what can the prince care about the odds of winning? If you have that leisure, you might as well calm down and take things one step at a time. The so-called doing your best and obeying the destiny is nothing more than that."

Although the whole treason plan was calculated by Wu Sidao, in the final analysis, he was not too sure of success. At this delicate juncture, he would not tell the truth, so he just gave it vaguely. an answer.

"Forget it, it's useless to think too much, let's just fight it out once, come, come, call the cause!"

Hearing Wu Sidao's words, Fourth Master's eyes darkened for an instant, but he soon woke up again, but seeing him gritted his teeth, his face was distorted and he yelled, his own waiter was at the door The guards outside hurriedly responded, and went to summon him because the monk came to see him without mentioning it.

"The poor monk has seen the prince."

Because the monk is in the outer courtyard, it is not slow to arrive.

"Hmm..., pass on my king's order, and Lu Dingsheng will act according to the plan immediately, and there must be no mistakes!"

Because the monk had arrived, but Fourth Master was not in a hurry to speak, but after pacing back and forth in the study for a while, he suddenly stopped, his face suddenly serious, and he squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth Spooky words.

"Yes, the poor monk will do it now."

Since the fourth master had an order, Monk Liao Yin didn't ask too many questions, he respectfully responded, and went to arrange for Feige to deliver the message without mentioning it.

"Life and death are at stake here, and this king is willing to go all out. I hope that the spirits of my ancestors and ancestors in the sky can protect my foundation in the Qing Dynasty."

Monk Liao Yin walked very neatly, but Fourth Master's expression did not soften, and after standing silently for a long time, he murmured with emotion.

"..."

Upon hearing Fourth Master's words, Wu Sidao didn't know what to say, so he could only smile bitterly...
