Kowloon wins

Chapter 220 If you want to make a fuss, make a big fuss ([-])

"Since ancient times, wealth has moved people's hearts!"

In the study room in the inner courtyard, after listening to Hong Qing's statement quietly with his eyes slightly closed, Old Master Chen was not in a hurry to say anything, but let out a sigh of emotion.

"This……"

Tuo Heqi made such a big fuss, Hong Qing didn't think that Tuo Heqi would be aimless, it's just that he couldn't see the intention of his actions for a while, so he rushed back to the palace to ask Old Master Chen for advice. At this moment, when the old master felt so emotional, his heart couldn't help but startled, and he seemed to have thought of something strange, but when he thought about it carefully, he couldn't grasp the specifics, and his brows were unavoidably furrowed a little because of this.

"Reaching the river has been costing money since ancient times, but now it is possible to get money by regulating the river. A huge plate of fat meat is brought out. There are not many people who are tempted by the court. The reason why they dare not act rashly is just mutual scruples. If there is a consensus and a knife is used, it will be ruthless."

Old Master Chen waited and saw that Hongqing's brows were still unfurled, so he knew that Hongqing hadn't seen through the strangeness, so he stopped playing tricks, tapped the coffee table with his fingers, smiled sarcastically, and pointed out the reason.

"This group of silverfish is really brave!"

Hong Qing was already very shrewd, Old Master Chen had already made his words so clear, how could he not understand, in a flash of thought, he completely understood the origin of the matter, the left and right were only the prince and the eighth master The others are greedy for the tens of thousands of hectares of fertile land newly added in Henan. This is a trap to eat meat from the pot, and Baoshou, the second son of Prince Yu, is probably also a part of this conspiracy. Only yesterday's conflict with Mu Ning and others happened. As for the transfer of the case to the Ministry of Criminal Justice, it is clearly due to the tacit understanding between the prince and the eighth master!
"How does the little prince plan to deal with it?"

Old Master Chen ignored Hong Qing's anger, but asked with a hint of a school exam.

how to respond?This question is really not that easy to answer. Although the cause of this matter is not big, it is just a brawl in a restaurant, but since the opponent has set up such a trick, if they want to get Mu Ning and others out of the trick, they will It's not an easy task. There are many reasons at the Criminal Department to procrastinate. Even if Hong Qing went to demand the person in person, the Criminal Department only needs to say "the case is still under investigation", which is enough to stop Hong Qing's important person's words and go It's obviously not going to work to catch people, so it's not going to work if you just sit back and watch. Unless Hong Qing doesn't want Rong Zhu as an ally, otherwise, she really can't just stand by and let Mu Ning be imprisoned.

"Master, please give me some guidance."

Although Hong Qing is not lacking in quick wits, she has been thinking about the solution for many years, but when it comes to certainty, she dare not affirm that it is feasible. The more she thinks about it, the more difficult she feels that this matter is extremely difficult. Do not bow down for advice.

"If you want to break the situation, you have to muddy the water."

Old Master Chen did not give a specific strategy, but simply pointed out a direction.

"Stir up the water? This..."

Hearing what Old Master Chen said, Hong Qing was taken aback for a moment, and then fell into deep thought. After a long time, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she had already thought about it, so she murmured and said: "Master Mingjian, the student has a lesson." Ce: ..., I don't know if it is feasible, but I ask the master to correct it."

"Well, if you can't calm things down, then you can make a fuss in Dali, or at least there will be room for bargaining."

Old Master Chen closed his eyes slightly, thought carefully for a moment, and then nodded, giving an affirmative answer.

"Yes, students know what to do."

Although Hong Qing had already made a decision, she did not dare to say she was absolutely sure. Now that she heard the old master's approval, her determination in her heart became a bit firmer, and she respectfully agreed without any more nonsense. , got up immediately, and after a big salute, exited the study, changed into plain clothes, led Li Minxing and others who also changed into plain clothes, and went straight to Xiaochuanzi alley...

"Subordinates see the little prince!"

In the courtyard of Xiaochuanzi Hutong, Cao Yanshan and others who had already known that Hongqing was coming, saw Hongqing walking through the courtyard gate, and rushed to pay their respects with big gifts.

"Excuse me, Mingtao (Cao Yanshan's word), is there any news from the Ministry of Punishment?"

The situation was serious, so Hong Qing couldn't help feeling a little irritable. Fortunately, the city was deep, so she didn't want to bring it to her face. However, facing the crowd's salute, Hong Qing didn't talk nonsense, and went straight to the point.

"Returning to the little prince, my subordinates have ordered the Ministry of Criminal Affairs to investigate in many ways, but they didn't get much. I only know that Mu Ning and others are locked in the T-shaped cell. The subordinates have ordered the disciples in the cell to take good care of them. It should not be so. Let Mr. Mu Ning feel wronged."

Although Cao Yanshan is capable of handling affairs, but the foundation of the "Sharp Knife Gang" is still weak, and it is difficult to find out the secrets that are too high-level. Facing Hong Qing's questions, Cao Yanshan can only answer in general.

"Well, it's inconvenient for Ben Baylor to come forward. Later, you ask the brothers in prison to send some food and bedding to Mu Ning and others, and tell them by the way, saying that Ben Baylor knows the truth and is taking precautions, so that he can rest easy and take care of himself. Ben Baylor calls the shots."

Regarding Cao Yanshan's embarrassment, Hong Qing naturally understood, but she didn't demand too much, so she nodded and said calmly.

"Yes, your subordinates obey!"

Things didn't go so well, Cao Yanshan couldn't help feeling a little uneasy, fearing that Hongqing would be blamed, but seeing that Hongqing had no such intentions, Cao Yanshan's heart calmed down, and he hurriedly responded, sideways The leader called a disciple who was waiting by the side to come to him and instructed him to go and handle various matters.

"Are there any disciples in the gang who work as clerks in the Ministry of Punishment?"

Hong Qing didn't interfere with Cao Yanshan's specific arrangements, and only after she finished her work, did she ask questions casually.

"Returning to the little prince, although my subordinates have developed some manpower in the Ministry of Punishment since the last year, they are all low-level people. Those with high grades dare not touch them blindly. Only one post is currently under investigation, and it is still difficult to determine it. loyalty."

After nearly a year of development, the strength of the "Sharp Knife Gang" has indeed made great progress with the support of a large amount of money. Now nearly half of the territory in Xicheng is under the control of the "Sharp Knife Gang". The days are still short, and it is not yet possible to extend its tentacles to all aspects of the capital. When it really comes time to employ people, it is really a bit of a stretch. Feeling embarrassed to answer this question, it was Chen Size who explained it from the sidelines.

"Oh? Which department is it from? What's your name?"

Hong Qing is in charge of the Ministry herself, so she naturally knows what kind of stuff the Bi Posts are. Don't look at the humble official positions of the Bi Posts, but they are all low-ranking officials of the ninth rank, but they are all slippery people. The departmental affairs department in the village is very clear, and it is difficult to hide any shady activities in the department from such people. At this moment, when I heard that the "Sharp Knife Gang" had such an investigation object, my spirits were immediately lifted, but it did not bring me back. Instead of coming to his face, he asked quietly.

"So that the little prince can know that this person is from the Banner of the Han Army. His surname is He, with a single character. It is written in the style of the autumn trial office. Being able to be reused, being righteous, easy to fight against injustice, last year I had a dispute with the brothers in the gang over trivial matters, and later people agreed that it was no deal, and my subordinates are quite familiar with him. If the little prince wants to employ someone, maybe he can send Maybe it will come in handy.”

Seeing that Hong Qing was interested in that pen post style, Chen Size didn't dare to be negligent, and hurriedly described the process of contacting this person.

"Autumn Trial Office? Alright, Erke go and invite this He Bitiaoshi, and Ben Baylor is waiting here."

When she heard that Bi Tieshi was working in the Qiu Judgment Office, Hong Qing couldn't help feeling overjoyed, and without further ado, she gave the order straightforwardly.

"twitter!"

Since Hong Qing had confessed in this way, Chen Size didn't dare to ask the reason, he hastily complied with the promise, and hurriedly withdrew, and went to the yamen of the Ministry of Punishment to ask someone not to mention it.

"I said, Brother Wang, why are you playing so mysteriously? We brothers have nothing to say, you..."

After more than half an hour, a slightly dissatisfied Mai Tai sounded outside the study, and a burly man turned side by side with Chen Size from behind the screen, but suddenly he saw Hong Qing sitting high on the head , the man was in the middle of speaking and suddenly fell silent. He stared at Hong Qing dumbfounded, and was stunned on the spot at a loss.

"Brother He, this is my little prince."

Seeing He Chong standing still in a daze, Chen Size secretly laughed in his heart, but he didn't dare to be rude in front of Hong Qing, so he hurriedly reminded He Chong from the side.

"The Autumn Trial Office of the Ministry of Punishment, the lower official's pen post style, He Chong kowtowed to meet the little prince!"

He Chong came here this time in response to Chen Size, but he didn't know that Hong Qing was the master behind the "Sharp Knife Gang", let alone that Hong Qing was waiting to see him. He was so intimidated, until he got a suggestion from Chen Size, then he rushed to the front as if he had just woken up from a dream, and paid respectful salutes incessantly.

"Forget it, just be flat."

In the past few years, Hong Qing has a great reputation in the court, and she often walks in the Ministry of Industry. There are almost no officials in the various ministries who do not know Hong Qing. Because of this, Hong Qing is not surprised that He Chong recognized her. , I didn't blame him for his disrespect, but he didn't deliberately show the posture of a corporal, he just raised his hand warmly and yelled in a gentle tone.

"Thank you, little prince Ron."

He Chong has worked in the Ministry of Criminal Affairs for many years. Although his official position is humble, he has seen and heard a lot. He has heard all kinds of rumors about Hongqing, and he has seen Hongqing's majesty several times. How dare he be presumptuous in front of Hongqing? After politely thanking him, he bowed and stood up, assuming a posture of obeying orders.

"You don't need to be so restrained. Ben Baylor invited you here today because he wanted to discuss something with me. I wonder if Mr. He is willing to help?"

Hong Qing didn't bother to say those meaningless greetings, but got straight to the point.

"Ah, this..."

He Chong was guessing the intention of Hong Qing's summoning. Hearing that Hong Qing said the theme so directly, for a while he was a little confused about the real intention behind Hong Qing's words, and couldn't help being startled. She raised her head suddenly, and looked at Hong Qing with surprise on her face.
