Chapter 205 Unavoidable Hurdles ([-])

"Your Majesty has a decree. Prince Xuancheng Yinzhi, Dorobeile Yinzhen, and Dorobeile Hongqing Mental Cultivation Hall will meet you!"

Although the matter of the household department was successfully resolved, the process was full of twists and turns, from the busy time of Chenshi to the end of the hour, but the emperor's life was in hand, the third father and son and the fourth master did not dare to delay a little bit, even for lunch It didn't work, as soon as he left the household department, he rushed to the gate of the palace, and after handing over the signboard, he saw Qin Wuyong hurried out from the Meridian Gate with two young eunuchs , loudly proclaimed the old man's oral instructions.

Hall of Mental Cultivation?What time is it, the old man is still in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the smell seems to be a bit wrong!

As soon as the old man made an announcement, the third master was in a good mood, but the fourth master was so depressed that he didn't think about it. After thanking him, he hurried to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, but Hong Qing was careful, and faintly sensed something was wrong, not for anything else, but because the Hall of Mental Cultivation was the place where the old man received his foreign ministers, and it was also the inner court side hall most often used by the old man for his work, but now it is the end of time Well, it's already past the time to meet foreign ministers. Even if you want to wait to see the result of the third master's debt settlement, it should be in the Qianqing Palace in daily life. Now, the old man has not left in the Yangxin Palace, which is obvious. It was delayed by other important matters. Although it is still impossible to know what it is, Hongqing has a strong premonition in her heart-the father and son are likely to be involved in this matter, and it may not be a good thing. It's just that it's not a good time to talk about things at this time, Hong Qing can only follow the third master silently, rushing all the way to the Hall of Mental Cultivation despite the suspicions in her heart.

"The minister (grandson) kowtows to Huang Ama (Huang Mafa)!"

Hong Qing and the others waited for a while outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation, until the old man's summons came out inside, and the three of them walked into the hall quickly, and saw the old man Kangxi sitting on the head with a smile on his face, and he was leaning against him. Sitting on Jindun, Cao Yin was chatting about Jiangning's style, while the crown prince sat beside him boredly. As for Ma Qi and other senior scholars, they didn't leave either. , hurriedly rushed to the front of the imperial court, Qiqi saluted and paid homage in a hurry.

"no."

The old man was obviously in a good mood, he didn't let the third master and others kneel down to answer, and he yelled with a smile.

"Son (grandson) thank Huang Ama (Huang Mafa) Long En, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Since the old man shouted, the three of them dared not be negligent, and hurriedly thanked each other according to the court regulations. They each got up and stood with their hands down, as if they were listening to the instruction respectfully.

"Third brother, how are things going?"

The old man didn't talk nonsense, and went straight to the topic as soon as he came up.

"When you return to Huang Ama, everything is going well. All the generals present have signed the repayment contract. Here are 26 existing contracts. Please Huang Ama have a look."

As soon as the old man asked about today's results, the third master really felt refreshed, but he didn't dare to show it on his face, so he just replied with a respectful expression.

"Well, I won't read it. Since I have a contract, I will follow it up. I will ask the Ministry of Punishment to prepare a document later. If anyone dares to violate it, it will be done according to the contract."

Although the old man is concerned about the settlement of debts, what he cares about is the result. He doesn't care much about the process. As long as the third master can handle the matter smoothly, he will be satisfied.

"Yes, my son obeys the order!"

Taking over the settlement of debts means that the third master's hand has already reached into the Ministry of Household Affairs, and now the old man has given the Ministry of Criminal Justice the order to file a record, and the third master's hand seems to be able to extend slightly towards the Ministry of Criminal Justice. As far as my master is concerned, it is a good thing, so there is no reason not to rush to agree to it.

"Huang Ama has learned a lesson from you. My son thinks that today's affairs are going well, but there are hidden dangers, and it is better to take precautions before they happen."

The fourth master originally tried his best to pull the third master off the horse today, but he didn't expect that Hong Qing would make a mess of the carefully arranged situation, and his heart was already full of resentment It was probably unbearable, but when he heard that the old man gave the third master the right to stretch his hand to the Ministry of Punishment, he couldn't hold back his unwillingness, so he bowed and interjected.

"Well, how do you say that?"

The old man has long been aware of the overall response plan of the third master, so he didn't ask about the specific process of paying off today's debts before, but now he heard the strange words of the fourth master, his brows raised involuntarily, and he scanned the four After the master glanced at it, he asked in a peaceful voice just now.

"So that Huang Ama can know that today Qing'er bet with the generals about the repayment of Cao's family and Bajunmen.... Although Bajunmen has signed the repayment document, Cao's family has not yet If there is even the slightest noise, I am afraid that the generals will not accept it, and if there is another incident, I am afraid that Yu Qing owes something to him, so I ask the emperor to pay attention!"

Fourth master's eloquence is only average, can it be used to describe today's settlement of debts, but it is enough, but after seeing that he took the trouble to describe today's settlement of debts, he took this hot potato from the Cao family out of the fire Pulling it out from the pile, it's very simple, it's very simple, just waiting for the old man to stuff this matter into the third master's arms.

"Imperial Ama learned, my son thinks what the fourth brother said is very true. If you don't prepare early, if there is chaos, it must be a joke. Since the third brother is a capable person, I think he must have a plan in his mind."

If you talk about who among the elder brothers is the least happy to see the third master get along well, then the crown prince is definitely ranked first, but the third master is now full of wings, and the way the prince can restrain the third master is already Rarely, this hot potato from the Cao family is undoubtedly one of the best ways to embarrass the third master. With the prince's IQ, he can't fail to see it, and he doesn't care whether he will leave something to the old man if he moves his heart. With a good impression, he hurriedly echoed it.

"Well, what the fourth brother said sounds reasonable to me. Third, do you have any solution to this?"

The old man seemed really moved by the words of the fourth master and the prince, nodded thoughtfully, and directly pushed the problem to the third master.

Damn it, it really is this matter, no wonder the old man is so late, and he is dragging Cao Yin to chat, dare to say that he is waiting to set our father up!
From the eyes of others, the scene in front of him seemed to be that the crown prince and the fourth master were embarrassing the third master. As for the old man, it was just because he was moved by the fourth master's words, but Hong Qing didn't think so. At that moment, when she saw Cao Yin chatting and laughing with the old man, Hong Qing had faintly seen through the old man's intentions, but she couldn't be sure for a while, now that she heard the old man say that, how could she I couldn't see the strangeness in it, and I couldn't help but sweat coldly for the third master's good life.

"Imperial Ama learned, my son thinks that this matter will not be harmful. When Qing'er and the generals gambled, they have already confessed. There is no doubt that the generals will be right. Today, the contract has been signed, and things will be done according to the rules. , how can there be anything else to say."

The third master is a shrewd person, although he was a little surprised at the old man's sudden move, but the third master knew the hidden risks at a glance, so he refused to easily promise to take over the Cao family's debt payment— ——The Cao family and Baxi are not the same thing. Although Cao Yin's official rank is two levels lower than Baxi's, Cao Yin is the old man's servant and one of the most trusted and trusted figures. In addition, Cao Yin's family has a great cause Big, in the south of the Yangtze River, the roots are intertwined, and it is not comparable to a lonely family like Baxi. Whether it is moving the Cao family or trying to help it fill in the deficit, it is not an easy matter. If you can not touch your hands, no one will be willing to touch it.

"Third brother's words are wrong. Don't be afraid of [-] in everything, but just in case. If there is chaos, Yu Qing's debt will be very difficult."

This time, the fourth master is determined not to make the third master feel better. Seeing that the third master is playing the trick of Tai Chi pushing hands, how can he just sit back and watch the third master slip away like this? said a word.

"Fourth brother's words are justified. We must act in the best possible way. How can we just sit back and watch hidden dangers and not eliminate the truth? Third brother has always been a great talent, so he should have a way to deal with it."

After finally catching an opportunity to attack the third master, the prince naturally refused to let it go, so he sang with the fourth master and forced the third master, what he wanted was for the third master to gnaw at the tough bone of the Cao family.

"The elder brother of the crown prince taught the truth, but the younger brother thinks that there is no reason for everything, and there are rules to follow, so don't be afraid of ghosts and ghosts making troubles. If there are people who dare to do it, the national law is just a fake."

The third master would not touch the matter of the Cao family even if he was beaten to death. Otherwise, he would not have asked the old man to come forward and remove the Cao family from the matter of clearing the debt. The third master would never give in.

"Forget it, what's the point of arguing about it? Since it's about paying off debts, you should treat them equally, third child. I'll leave this matter to you. Do you dare to do it?"

The old man has been a little tired since he sat in the morning. Seeing the three sons arguing endlessly, the annoyance in his heart immediately surged, his face became serious, and he pressed his hands to stop the dispute , in an unquestionable tone, put the matter of the Cao family on the shoulders of the third master.

"Yes, my son obeys the order!"

The third master never expected that the old man would forcefully stuff the hot potato so arbitrarily, his forehead was sweating immediately, but he didn't have the guts to argue with the old man on the spot, so he had no choice but to reluctantly agree .

"Well, I can feel at ease when the third child comes forward to take care of it. Forget it, the discussion has been going on for a long time today. I am tired, and you are all exhausted."

The old man was only trying to solve the problem, but he obviously didn't want to listen to the third master's request. Hearing that the third master had received the order, he didn't bother, and directly issued the order to expel the guests.

"Huang Ama Shengming, my son (chen) and others will retire!"

The old man has already talked about this point, all the people in the hall did not dare to stay any longer, they all saluted, and then exited the Hall of Mental Cultivation, exchanged casual greetings for a while, and then dispersed .
