Chapter 177 Four Strategies for the Aftermath ([-])

"What's the matter?"

The third master is now full of thoughts and thoughts on the four strategies offered by Hong Qing, and he really does not want any accidents to happen, but it is Li Minxing who is about to come in, but it is not easy to happen to him. Then he asked in a slightly cold tone.

"Reporting to my lord, Lord Rong, governor of Henan, and Lord Wang of Taiwan are here to visit together, please make it clear."

Seeing that the third master's expression was not right, Li Minxing didn't dare to be negligent, so he rushed to the front and bowed respectfully to report.

"Huh? Please."

The third master has been traveling with Rong Zhu for the past few days on inspections, and he broke up with him more than half an hour ago. When he heard that Rong Zhu led the Taiwanese king Wanli to the post station again, he couldn't help but say I was taken aback for a moment, and after thinking about it, I finally said the word please.

"twitter!"

Now that the third master had let go of his words, Li Minxing didn't dare to delay here any longer, so he hastily responded and left the study in a hurry. After a while, he accompanied Rong and Wang from outside again. Turned back.

"Xiaguan Rongzhu (Wang Wanli) kowtowed to the prince."

Rongzhu, about sixty years old, named Tiezhai, nicknamed Caizhisheng, Yiergenjueluo, Manzhou Zhengbai Banner, a servant of the Son of Heaven who is serious and famous for his poems and paintings; Wang Wanli, named Zichun , fifty-three years old, born in Taiyuan, Shanxi, born as a Jinshi in the 27th year of Kangxi, and has been in the officialdom for more than ten years. He was just promoted from a Taoist priest in Guangzhou last year. Both of them belong to the Big Three in Henan. Where have they been in the past? But they are all majestic, but in front of the third master, they dare not make the slightest mistake. As soon as Fang entered the study, they all rushed forward, and they could not pay enough respects.

"no."

Although the third master was reluctant to meet with these two giants in every possible way at this time, but everyone came, and it was worthwhile to make a fool of himself, but he was also a little rude, so he could only yell patiently.

"Thank you, Lord Ron."

Both Rong and Wang are veterans in the officialdom, and they are best at observing faces. Even though the third master's face is calm as usual, the two of them can hear a little impatience from the tone of their voices, and they can't help but feel a little nervous. He looked terrified, but he didn't dare to say much, he thanked him politely, and then he stood up straight.

"Come here, show the seats to the two adults!"

Although the terrified expressions on the faces of Rong and Wang flashed by, the third master saw everything in his eyes, and he couldn't help feeling suspicious in his heart, but he didn't rush to ask questions, but raised his eyebrows, With a calm tone of command, the guards who were waiting on the side brought Jindun and served the freshly brewed fragrant tea.

"My lord, something went wrong in the prison in the city last night. Lu Yanran, the female bandit of the White Lotus Sect who was originally imprisoned in the women's prison, disappeared strangely. The subordinate officials have ordered a search across the city, but..."

After the guards withdrew, Rong and Wang looked at each other, and Wang Wanli bit the bullet and made a report.

"What? How could this be? Why didn't you report earlier!"

The chaos caused by the Bailian Sect bandits not only almost killed Hong Qing, but also almost ruined the affairs of the third master. If the Bailian sect succeeded, the whole Henan would be in chaos. After eating and dying, this enmity is deeply rooted, and the third master can't wait to kill all the Bailian sect bandits all over the world. At this moment, when he heard that Lu Yanran, who had been imprisoned, had disappeared, he immediately panicked. It was a burst of anger, and before Wang Wanli finished speaking, he opened his eyes angrily, and shouted unceremoniously.

"My lord, calm down, my lord, my lord, I just learned of the letter, and I didn't dare to neglect it, so I invited Lord Rong to report to my lord, and I also asked my lord to express my actions."

Seeing that the third master was so furious, Wang Wanli couldn't bear it any longer, how could he dare to sit upright, his legs and feet softened, and he fell to his knees on the ground, kowtowing as if explaining, his body was trembling like a wobble Ordinary—Taiwan is in charge of the law and order of a province. It is a serious crime to fail to discover the White Lotus Sect's gathering of people to riot in time. If Hongqing hadn't planned to wipe out the White Lotus Sect in Baliwan Town, Wang Wanli should have been expelled at this time. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is being treated for a crime at this moment, but he has committed the serious crime of being lost and imprisoned. Under the combined punishment of the two crimes, Wang Wanli has almost no chance of escape, the only hope He can only hope that the third master can stretch out his hand to cover him up. Seeing that the third master is furious at this moment, it is impossible for him to feel guilty.

I'll fuck it, I can escape this way, what does this dog official do, I'm afraid the fun behind it will not be too small!

As soon as she heard that Lu Yanran had escaped, Hong Qing's heart immediately "thumped", and she felt that this woman seemed to have a lot of ties to her in the dark, and the feeling of unhappiness in her heart intensified involuntarily. He gave Wang Wanli a very displeased look, but he didn't say anything, but his slightly frowning brow clearly showed his dissatisfaction.

"Just to make it clear, I have the time to come to this king, but I don't have the time to catch the thief, get out, if you can't get the thief, I'll just wait and listen!"

Not to mention that Hong Qing was annoyed, but the third master was also extremely unhappy. He really didn't want to talk nonsense with Wang Wanli, so he yelled at him unceremoniously.

"Ah, yes, yes, yes, I will do it now, I will do it now!"

Seeing that the third master was furious, Wang Wanli didn't dare to delay any longer, he kowtowed heavily, and left the room in a panic.

"My lord, calm down, this matter is indeed an accident."

Although Rong Zhu came with Wang Wanli, he obviously didn't intend to help Wang Wanli take responsibility. Earlier when the third master had an attack on Wang Wanli, he didn't say a word, but now that Wang Wanli was driven away, he opened his mouth When I explained it, it couldn't be more obvious that I was careful.

"Well..., that's all, whoever is responsible should take it on their own. This matter will be written by Mr. Lao Rong in this chapter, and it is enough to explain the cause and effect clearly."

At first glance, Rong Zhu's words sounded like he was doing something for Wang Wanli, but in fact, he was just trying to shirk his responsibility, and what he wanted was to provoke the third master to die and hold Wang Wanli. Concealment, but how can I hide it from the extremely shrewd third master. Obviously, if Rong Zhu fails to please, he will be in trouble. No, the third master just pondered and kicked the hot potato Into Rongzhu's arms.

"This……"

Upon hearing the third master's order, Rong Zhu was immediately dumbfounded, not for anything else, but because wherever the White Lotus Sect made trouble, the officials there would have to take the blame. With Elder Brother's status, Rong Zhu can enjoy the shade under the big tree, but with the third master's swipe, Rong Zhu will be overwhelmed and walk away. In this panic, his face immediately turns pale.

"Father, my son thinks that this is a serious matter, and it is necessary to prevent the remnants of the White Lotus Sect from making trouble. I should be Mafa in the morning, so as not to cause more trouble."

Although Hongqing was annoyed at the incompetence of the officials in Henan, but considering that the river control would require the strong cooperation of Henan, he did not want to make the relationship between them too rigid. It helped Rongzhu out.

"Forget it, the king of this chapter will be finished today. After Mr. Rong returns, he has to step up his efforts to catch the remnants of the White Lotus Sect, so that the whole territory can be appeased."

Hearing Hong Qing abruptly interjected such a strange sentence, the third master really couldn't figure out what Hong Qing's intentions were for a while, but, considering that Hong Qing has always acted prudently, he thought that Hong Qing must have something ulterior motives at this time Deep meaning, the third master would never refuse Hong Qing's proposal, after all he is an imperial envoy elder brother, and he has made great achievements in breaking the White Lotus Sect. mouth.

"Don't worry, my lord, I know what to do. The matter is urgent, and I will arrange it right away."

With the words of the third master, no matter what will happen to Wang Wanli, the relationship with Rong Zhu has basically been cleared up, lest the third master will change his mind again, Rong Zhu will not want to stay here any longer. Then he got up and said goodbye.

"Well, that's fine, Min Xing, see off the guests."

The matter of apprehending the remnants of the White Lotus Sect is a top priority for the local government, but for the third master, it is obviously not as important as the four strategies Hong Qing said. Taking advantage of the opportunity, he picked up the tea bowl and greeted Li Minxing to see off the guests on his behalf.

"Lord Rong, please!"

Since the third master had confessed in this way, Li Minxing didn't dare to be negligent, so he hurriedly came out from the side, waved his hand, and signaled Rong Zhu to take care of himself.

"Farewell to the official!"

Now that the matter had come to a conclusion, the big stone in Rong Zhu's heart fell to the ground, so he saluted respectfully, turned around and left the room.

"Qing'er, is there anything that needs to be taken care of by Rong Zhu?"

The third master didn't have any sand in his eyes, when Rong Zhu was around, it was difficult for him to ask, but now that Rong Zhu was gone, the third master didn't have any scruples, glanced at Hong Qing, and asked straightforwardly.

"Returning to my father, this time our mission is not only for disaster relief, but also for the top priority of river regulation. Now that the overall situation of disaster relief has been decided, river regulation is an urgent matter. After all, this matter must be resolved by the whole province of Henan. , if you can do a smooth favor, you might as well do a good job."

Hong Qing had known for a long time that the third master had always been suspicious, but she didn't hide her true intentions in helping Rong Zhu, so she explained it earnestly.

"Well, this matter will be discussed later, and let's go on to talk about how to raise a clean bank?"

The third master was originally worried that Hong Qing would have a private connection with Rong Zhu. Now that Hong Qing said this, he understood, and he would not dwell on this matter any longer. Instead, he asked about the past The true meaning of the third strategy that Hong Qing said lies.

Well, father, father, you are too cautious, we have always made money in an open and aboveboard manner, when did you see that we received black money?It's really a dog biting Lu Dongbin, who doesn't know a good heart!
Although the words of the third master did not make it clear, how could such a shrewd person as Hong Qing not be able to hear the suspicion in the words of the third master, and there was a bit of a murmur in her heart, but she couldn't help but ruthlessly He slandered the third master.
