Kowloon wins

Chapter 123

"My lord, Hong Qing, the prince of Chengjun, is asking to see you outside the Yamen!"

It was past noon, and in the back hall of the nine-door admiral's yamen, Tuo Heqi, who had just had his lunch, was drinking tea leisurely, when he saw a Geshha hurried in from the outside, a clean and tidy slap in the face. Thousand, reported aloud.

"not see!"

Hearing that it was Hong Qing who came to see him again, Tuo Heqi frowned unconsciously, but he didn't delay, and spit out two words without hesitation.

"grown ups……"

This is the fourth visit to Hongqing in the past three days. Every time he comes back, this Geshha who came to report the news has not lost the benefits of Hongqing. With the short manpower, he can't help but feel a little bit sorry. This made me brave enough to try to give some advice.

"Ok?"

Tuo Heqi has always been an arrogant master, seldom has the capacity to tolerate others, he thinks that the holy family is extremely prosperous, and there is a prince sitting behind him, let alone Hong Qing, it is the third master who comes in person, and he Tuo Heqi He didn't take it to heart either, seeing that Nagoshha was showing signs of disobedience, his brows and eyes immediately stood up, and he let out an extremely cold snort from his nasal cavity.

"twitter!"

Seeing that Tuoheqi's voice was not right, that Geshhadeng turned pale with fright, and dared to say any more nonsense, so he hurriedly agreed, retreated in fear, and hurried all the way to the gate of the yamen go.

Well, it's over again!

Seeing the expression on the face of that Ghoshha who went to report the letter, Hong Qing knew that the matter of asking for an audience might fall into the void again without asking. A little bit, but there is no other expression, calmly still standing on the spot.

"Little Wang Ye Haihan, my family is busy, I'm afraid I won't have time to see you, why don't you come back another day?"

Sure enough, as Hong Qing expected, Geshha, who hurried out of the yamen, bowed towards Hong Qing, and said the words that had been repeated four times in the past three days.

"It's work."

Having been shut down four times in a row, even a clay figurine would be annoyed, not to mention that Hong Qing was not a kind person in the first place. At this moment, the anger in his heart was already burning fiercely, but no matter how annoyed he was, he would I couldn't lose face, so I just smiled and bowed my hands to return the salute, thanked politely, then turned around, and went to the carriage parked beside me, before Liu San'er could ask for instructions, he said coldly Order: "Go to Xiaochuanzi Hutong!"

"twitter!"

Seeing that the situation was not right, Liu San'er dared to ask questions, he hurriedly responded, and went to command and dispatch the guards of the palace without mentioning it.

The "Sharp Knife Gang" has only opened the Xiangtang for nearly four months, but the momentum of expansion is very fierce. It has defeated several small gangs in the surrounding area one after another, and has gathered a lot of peripheral organizations. The power has begun. It has infiltrated into the core of the west of the city. Of course, in terms of current strength, it is only a second-rate character among hundreds of gangs in the west city. Even so, Xiaochuanzi Hutong is no longer the bleak scene of a few months ago. Although it was not as busy as traffic, there were quite a lot of burly men coming and going in the alley. Seeing this, Hong Qing's originally depressed mood was reduced by nearly half.

"Subordinates Chen Size and Cao Yanshan kowtow to the little prince!"

Hearing that Hongqing had arrived, the two giants of the "Sharp Knife Gang" hurriedly put down their work and walked out of the gate together, each bowing and paying respects incessantly.

"Forget it, let's talk inside."

Hong Qing had something on her mind at the moment, so she didn't want to exchange pleasantries at the gate, so she just nodded, yelled calmly, and walked slowly towards the door. Seeing this, Chen and Cao felt uncomfortable. Dare to be negligent, each of them cautiously accompanied Hong Qing, and stayed in the hall of the backyard, where the servants offered the freshly brewed fragrant tea.

"How's everything going?"

After all the idlers had retreated, Hong Qing picked up the tea bowl, took a small sip, and asked in a calm tone.

"Returning to the little prince, since receiving the order, the subordinates have sent everyone to track down the whereabouts of that person. Today, early in the morning, we have received a letter of approval. Wan Heshun's family of seven is hiding in a building on Orange Street near Chongwenmen. In the house."

Although Hong Qing's words did not specify what was going on, Chen and Cao understood it immediately. After looking at each other, Cao Yanshan came forward to report.

"Well, have you ever found anything unusual?"

Hong Qing was not surprised by Cao Yanshan's answer, probably because Chongwenmen was the seat of the nine-door admiral's yamen, and since Wan Heshun had connections with the crown prince, it was safest for him to be protected by Tuoheqi's men and horses.

"My lord, my subordinates have gone to investigate in person. There are only four suspicious people hiding in a private house near the left. They seem to be secretly protecting Wan Heshun's family. In addition, there is a sentry in the nine admiral's yamen who often patrols nearby. Other than that, there is no other ambush."

Cao Yanshan is a person who has traveled all the year round, so he is very cautious in doing things. He has surveyed the situation near Wan Heshun's hiding place early on, so he is very confident when answering Hong Qing's questions.

"Mingtao (Cao Yanshan's word), how sure are you of capturing this thief's family? Well, it would be best if you don't disturb the nine admirals' yamen. , Ben Beizi intends to have a good dinner here for this Wanda accountant, can Mingtao do it?"

It has been four days since the company was closed, and if it continues to be delayed, the consequences will be quite unbearable. Hong Qing doesn't want the good situation she created with great difficulty to be ruined by others, but it's hard to tell Go to the old man, after all, the old man has opened a golden mouth on this matter-even though the old man didn't say that he would seal up the business name, it was purely a use of excuses by that guy, but once the matter about the business name was brought to the court, there would be no one to move. It's too big, which is not what Hongqing wants. Secondly, once the trouble becomes big, no matter the outcome, it will not be a good thing for Hongqing. When she was a little incompetent and it was time to use some dark means, Hong Qing would definitely not let her go.

"If you want to avoid alarming the Admiral of the Nine Gates, the subordinates are only [-]% sure."

As early as when he received the secret investigation on Wan Heshun's whereabouts, Cao Yanshan was already ready to take action, and had deduced the relevant action plan. extremely fast.

"Seventy percent? It's a lot, so let's do it."

Hong Qing still had confidence in Cao Yanshan's ability, so she made a straightforward decision without much hesitation.

"twitter!"

Now that Hong Qing had given the order, Cao Yanshan didn't dare to be negligent, so he hurriedly bowed and complied with the promise, his voice was full of confidence...

After the Double Ninth Festival, the sky was already a bit cold, especially after the night fell, when the wind blew up, it was quite chilly, but the third master, who was in a good mood, obviously didn't care. There was a layer of sweat-stained reflection on his face, and the excitement between his brows was full of unconcealable excitement.

"The child kowtowed to the father and king."

Just when the third master wrote the beginning, he saw Hongqing turn around from behind the screen, walked a few steps quickly, rushed to the front, and saluted respectfully to say hello.

"no."

Hearing the sound, the third master raised his head, and it was Hong Qing who came, a gentle smile appeared on his face, he put down his pen, raised his hand, and cried out softly.

"Thank you, Father Wang Longen."

Even though she already guessed the purpose of her father's summons, Hong Qing didn't intend to expose it, after thanking her kindly, she stood with her hands down, making an appearance of respectfully listening to the instructions.

"Well, how is the Ministry of Industry doing recently?"

The third master was obviously very satisfied with Hong Qing's humble attitude, but he didn't say much praise, just nodded his head approvingly, and asked a question.

"Returning to my father, there are many officials involved in this case in the Ministry of Industry. Although nearly half of the vacancies have been filled by the Ministry of Officials, unfamiliarity is inevitable. Fortunately, the top and bottom are united, but they can still deal with it."

The third master's question seems to be random, but in fact, there is something hidden in it. The question is about the affairs of the Ministry of Industry, but it is aimed at the lack of Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry. He cared, but replied truthfully.

"Well, that's good. It's just that there are too many things in the Ministry of Industry, and the position of Minister should not be absent for a long time. What do you think about this?"

Sure enough, as Hong Qing expected, the third master was really interested in the work of the Minister of the Ministry of Industry. The question was asking Hong Qing if he had any ideas, but in fact he was conveying to Hong Qing that the third master had won the position intention.

"Father Wang Mingjian, Minister He Shen of the Ministry of Industry, Mr. He has been very effective in acting for the affairs of the Ministry recently, and Huang Ma's method may be used for him."

Although the Ministry of Industry ranks last, it is one of the six departments after all. If you can get it in your hands, it will be a good thing. , the third master has already controlled the Ministry of Rites. For the sake of balance, the old man will definitely not let the Ministry of Industry fall into the hands of the third master. Not only that, but he also has to find a master in the Ministry of Industry for Hongqing to sing a rival show—the old man When Hong Qing was sent to the Ministry of Industry, it was originally just a stopgap measure, but he never expected that Hong Qing could not only gain a firm foothold in the Ministry of Industry, but also pull Samuha, a veteran who has dominated the Ministry of Industry for nearly 20 years. After getting off the horse, with such a great achievement, the old man will not be able to dismiss Hong Qing's job as an assistant to the Ministry of Industry, but it is impossible to make the situation in the court unbalanced. In this way, finding an opponent for Hong Qing became inevitable.

"He Shen? Hey, that's all, we can discuss this matter later."

Since the third master aspires to a high position, he naturally has a good understanding of the situation in the court. How could he not know that He Shen is a servant of the eighth master. In the eyes of the third master, although he can be regarded as a person with some ability, it is not a luxury Covering a person is nothing but ordinary people's ears. Hearing Hong Qing mention this person so cautiously, I couldn't help but feel disapproving in my heart. I wanted to say a few words to ridicule him, but when the words came to my lips, I felt that I was talking about someone behind my back. Short and long were inappropriate, so I didn't say any more, but the disdain on my face was fully revealed.
