Kowloon wins

258 Chapter [-]

The old man issued an urgent edict, no one dared to ignore all the senior officials from the second rank and above. It was less than half an hour, and the Hall of Mental Cultivation was already full of people, nearly sixty people who were qualified to participate The courtiers discussing matters were divided into several small groups, and they were exchanging information in low voices. Obviously, those who can become the top high-ranking officials are all smart masters. Although they have never been to the scene of Xiaochuanzi Hutong, each of them I have already received accurate information, but what I don't know is what the old man's attitude is, and this is the focus of everyone's discussion. Although they are all just whispers, when there are too many people, the voice will become extremely loud. Noisy, buzzing, buzzing, just like a large swarm of flies holding a meeting.

"The Emperor is here!"

All the courtiers were discussing themselves vigorously, when suddenly a high-pitched voice rang out from the back hall, all the courtiers hurriedly took their positions, quickly lined up, and focused their eyes on the junction of the front and back halls.

"The ministers (subjects, etc.) kowtow to Huang Ama (His Majesty)!"

Before the sound of shouting disappeared, I saw that the old man had already left the apse first, followed by a dejected sixteenth elder brother. Seeing this, the courtiers couldn't help being stunned, but no one dared to stand at this moment. Losing etiquette, they all fell to their knees, paying homage incessantly.

"no."

The old man ignored the greetings from the courtiers, walked to the dragon couch in the middle with a gloomy face, lifted the hem of his robe, sat down, looked around the courtiers who were kneeling all over the floor, his voice was cold cried out.

"Thank you, Your Majesty Long En, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Hearing that the old man's voice was not right, the courtiers couldn't help but murmured in their hearts, but their moods were different, some were happy and some were sad, but no matter what mood they were in, no one dared to be rude His behavior can only be done according to the court rules and thanks.

"Tuoheqi!"

Just now when all the ministers took their seats, the old man frowned impatiently, and stopped drinking in a cold voice.

"Wei Chen is here!"

Tuo Heqi obviously expected that the old man would call his name, but he was not afraid at all, so it was the will of all brothers to raid Xiaochuanzi Hutong. He Tuo Heqi was just following orders, thinking to himself With the support of all the elder brothers, Tuo Heqi is really not afraid that the old sixteen will win the imperial case, and his self-confidence is beyond words when he comes out boldly.

"Tell me, what's going on in Xiaochuanzi Hutong, huh?"

Even though Qin Wuyong had been sent to find out the truth, and the old sixteen had made accusations, the old man still didn't use Tuo Heqi to act as soon as he came up, but gave him a chance to defend himself.

"Returning to Your Majesty, there were several small-scale fights in the west city a few days ago, which were suspected to be caused by gang fights in the Jianghu. In the end, thanks to His Majesty's love, he was able to take charge of the Nine Gates. I dare not bear the grace of the Holy Grail. I have ordered a thorough investigation into this matter. , this morning, I got a reliable report that the main culprit of the recent armed struggle is known to be hiding in Xiaochuanzi alley. Sixteenth elder brother actually led people to force the way, so that the roundup failed halfway, and everything he said is true, please Your Majesty to judge clearly!"

The one who entrusted him with Qi was thinking that the holy family was very prosperous, and the second was because he believed that he had the support of the prince and the eighth master. Although he could hear the old man's tone of voice was a bit unfriendly, he didn't take it very seriously. Following the strategy discussed with the prince in advance, he answered the old man's question with incomparable force.

"Reliable tip? Tell me, where did this tip come from, and who contributed it, huh?"

The reason why the old man mentioned Tuo Heqi to such an important position as the admiral of the Nine Gates a few years ago was because of his loyalty, but he never expected that Tuo Heqi would have a hot fight with the crown prince as soon as he took office. But I deeply violated the old man's taboo, the reason why I didn't take it down in a hurry was because it was inconvenient, and secondly, it was also because I didn't want to paralyze the prince's intention. The army has already alarmed the old man deeply, so he is going to take this opportunity to take down this beast, but after all, the old man is not a fatuous person. He nodded vigorously, and continued to ask in a low voice.

"Your Majesty, it is clear that this informant was presented by Qi Wuming, the general who led the army to suppress the thieves this time, and there are a large number of witnesses to prove it. It is precisely because of this that the last general agreed to lead his army to suppress the thieves."

When it comes to martial arts, especially the ability to ride and shoot immediately, Tuo Heqi is indeed a good player, but when it comes to nature, he is actually just a dandy, and it is only by chance that he became the admiral of the Nine Schools. When it comes to political vision Well, in fact, it's really bad to the extreme, otherwise, he wouldn't hang out with the prince, and his death is imminent, and he didn't realize it at all, talking smoothly, as if he really held the truth in his hand, But he didn't see the look of contempt in the eyes of Ba Ye and others on both sides.

"Go, Xuan Qi and Wu Ming have an audience!"

Seeing Tuo Heqi acting self-righteously there, the old man's expression was a bit awkward, but he still resisted the attack, but waved his hand, and ordered a word in a neutral manner: .

"twitter!"

As soon as the old man opened his mouth, Qin Wuyong who was standing at the side didn't dare to delay a little bit, he hurriedly responded, and hurried out of the hall, not long after, he came in from the outside with Qi Wuming, who had a pale face .

"The last general Qi Wuming kowtowed to His Majesty!"

Qi Wuming's mental state is extremely poor, nothing else, just because he knows very well that he has fallen this time, even though the news from the Eighth Master is at the bottom, but in any case, when there is such a big commotion, He, Qi Wuming, is definitely saddened by this catastrophe. The best case scenario is that he will be sent out of the capital. As for whether he will be sent to the border to serve, it is still uncertain, but anyway, with the death of Ba Ye Order, no matter how miserable the end is, Qi Wuming can only endure it. When he saw the old man sitting high above him, Qi Wuming saluted and greeted him not slowly, but he couldn't lift his spirits, and fell to his knees After being on the ground, he didn't even dare to raise his head.

"Qi Wuming, Tuo Heqi said that this case was reported by you as a clue, and also hosted by you personally, is there such a thing?"

Seeing Qi Wuming's decadent appearance, the old man was very displeased, but he didn't get angry, he just asked with a gloomy expression.

"Hui, Hui Your Majesty, I really don't know why Your Excellency said that. I just followed Your Excellency's order to thoroughly investigate Xiao Chuanzi Hutong. The rest of the things are beyond the knowledge of this General."

The matter of Xiao Chuanzi Hutong was really revealed by Qi Wuming to Tuo Heqi, in order to unite with the prince to cheat the father and son of the third master. For this reason, the dark forces on the other side of the eighth master attacked with all their strength. , and obtained a few circumstantial evidence, but for fear of scaring the snake, he did not take action against the main figures of the "Sharp Knife Gang". Most of the main force has been transferred by Hong Qing, and the rest of the important people have been transferred long before Hong Qing left Beijing. The current Xiaochuanzi Hutong is actually just an empty shell, but it is maintained by Chen Size, the chief executive. Now, it looks like the headquarters of the "Sharp Knife Gang". Qi Wuming didn't know all this at first, but after the surprise attack failed, he already guessed that he might have fallen into an ambush on Hongqing's side. With the intention of shrinking back, and the news from the Eighth Master, Qi Wuming's heart to shirk responsibility became stronger, and now he heard the old man ask, Dang even unceremoniously pushed all the responsibilities to Tuo Heqi body.

"Om..."

Most of the ministers didn't know what happened to Xiao Chuanzi Hutong at first, but knowing that the old sixteen had made a big fuss at the scene of the raid, they had vaguely guessed that Xiao Chuanzi Hutong must be related to the third master's side. All the older brothers teamed up to fight against the third master, but they never expected that the tone of the play would completely change at this point, and the limelight seemed to turn to the situation where the eighth master pitted the prince. They couldn't help but be surprised by it, and there was a moment of private discussion. and the earth grew larger.

"Boldly Qi Wuming, Er'an dares to speak freely, it will be decided..."

Not only the ministers did not expect such a change, Tuo Heqi was dizzy by Qi Wuming's words, and finally woke up, the anger in his heart could not be suppressed, his eyes He stared, regardless of whether it was the Imperial Palace, opened his mouth and cursed loudly.

"presumptuous!"

Before Tuo Heqi could completely erupt, the old man who couldn't stand it suddenly slammed the dragon's case, and drank in a fit of anger.

"Your Majesty calm down, the last general is rude, it's really Qi Wuming who is spitting blood, the last general can't bear it, so..."

Seeing that the old man was furious, Tuo Heqi didn't dare to be presumptuous anymore, he quickly fell to his knees on the ground, kowtowed several times, and begged with an aggrieved expression on his face.

"Hmph, I don't want to hear your sophistry. Since you said that Xiaochuanzi Hutong is a hiding place for bandits, where are the bandits now, huh?"

Since the old man wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of Tuo Heqi, how could he pay attention to his excuses, before Tuo Heqi finished speaking, the old man waved his hand impatiently and asked in a low voice One sentence.

"The last general, the last general..."

It has to be said that Tuo Heqi's political wisdom is really bad to the extreme. Things have developed to such a point that he really woke up. He felt bad and didn't know what to say. He just blindly glanced at the prince who was sitting on pins and needles with plaintive eyes asking for help, hoping that the prince would stand up at this time and give him some relief.

"Huang Ama has learned a lesson from you. My son thinks that there may be something wrong with this matter, and it must be thoroughly investigated."

The prince is actually a very intelligent person, at this moment, how can he not see that it is wrong to be in the limelight, but he really does not have the courage to cut off the wrist of a strong man, in fact, he can't do it, because Tuo Heqi is now his The most important thing to rely on is solid support. Even though she knew that standing up at this moment would offend the old man, she couldn't care less, so she stood up, turned around, bowed deeply to the old man, and tactfully remonstrated road.
