Chapter 391 The old man's board ([-])

Fourth master is ruthless, this is to cheat people to death without paying for their lives!

Although Hong Qing knelt down by the wall obediently, she was not thinking seriously, but focused all her attention on the reactions of the brothers, and when she saw the fourth master begging first, she was really furious , nothing else, the fourth master came to do such a trick, it was purely giving the old man a step to go crazy, there is no reason why the old man who was determined to beat all the elders would not take the opportunity to get angry, his fourth master had nothing to do with this matter No matter at all, no matter how mad the old man is, it will definitely not happen to his fourth master, but the third master and even the eighth master will be in trouble. As for Hong Qing himself, I am afraid that the board will be hit again How could Hong Qing not be annoyed at this point, but at this moment, there was really no possibility of Hong Qing interfering, so she could only sigh helplessly, and had to pin all her hopes on The third master's performance has improved.

"Yinzhi, let me tell you, why is the situation in the capital like this, huh?"

Sure enough, as Hong Qing expected, the old man went directly to the third master, nothing else, the so-called deeper love, deeper hatred, originally, the old man planned to train the third master as his successor, if It wasn't that last year's Rehe incident was too violent, the old man was already ready to let the third master enter the East Palace, and then there was an incident where the eighth master gathered a group of officials to force the palace, which made the old man angry at all the brothers. He put down his precautions, and he calmed down the heart of letting the third master enter the East Palace directly, but he didn't give up his plan to support the third master in the future, he just wanted to protect himself first, so the scene of the prince's dictatorship happened , for the purpose of taking back and releasing too much power. This kind of idea is undoubtedly a good one, but the result is the current chaos. Obviously, this matter can't be caused by Ba Ye alone It is obvious that the third master was also involved in it, and he might even be the instigator. This kind of situation obviously made the old man extremely annoyed, and the third master unfortunately became the No. 1 of the old man's accountability.

"If you go back to Huang Ama, the minister is indeed at fault in this matter. When Qing'er brought the case back to the capital, if the minister had insisted a little and didn't let Qi Shiwu do it arbitrarily, the matter should not be corrupted. It's just a matter of time." However, my son became suspicious and fearful, he failed to stick to the principle, it was too big, he didn't dare to defend himself, and asked Huang Ama to punish him."

As early as the moment he saw Hong Qing being punished to kneel in the corner of the wall, the third master already knew that he might not escape some accountability. I couldn't help rolling over for a moment of panic, and glanced at Hong Qing involuntarily, just in time to see the hint of pressing hands from Hong Qing, the panic in my heart suddenly eased a little, and I hurriedly knelt up straight body, admitting his mistake with a look of sincerity and fear.

"Doubt and fear? If you are selfless, why do you have doubts and fears? Say, what is it that you are suspicious of, huh?"

The third master's confession was very sincere, but the old man didn't mean to let the third master down at all, and unceremoniously reprimanded him again.

The old man's words sounded harsh at first glance, but in fact there was an obvious implication in them, that is, he wanted the third master to put all the blame on Qi Shiwu's head. Face, it is impossible for the prince to abolish Gangli, and he will be deposed again every year. Knowing that the case of the emperor's mausoleum is a conspiracy played by the prince, he can only pretend not to know. Not only does he not pursue it himself, but he also has to suppress the urge of his elder brothers to pursue it. Undoubtedly the best choice.

"Huang Ama Mingjian, the elder brother of the prince strongly recommended Qi Shiwu. As a minister, although he felt that something was wrong, he did not dare to fight forcefully. He was really worried that the elder brother of the prince would be offended, and he might hurt the friendship of the brothers. This is because the minister was cowardly for a while. , did not dare to speak out, so that Qi Shiwu's perverted and reckless behavior just now is the fault of my son, and I ask Huang Ama to take responsibility."

The third master is a smart person. Although he is lacking in strategy and has a small structure, his ability to observe colors is not bad. The old man has already spoken so clearly, how could he not understand , Answering the old man's question, he was very smooth, not only picked up all his little tricks, but at the same time, he also concealed it for the prince. As for the fate of the unlucky Qi Shiwu, But it's not within the scope of the third master's consideration.

"How many times have I said that when you run an errand, you must do it impartially. If you are selfless in your heart, you have no fear. How can you be a candidate for the presiding judge like Qi Shiwu? , since you have done it, you have to be punished, so good, I will fine you a year's salary, I am convinced, huh?"

The third master is so upright, the old man is not good at it again, besides, this matter really has to be investigated to the end, and the old man himself can't get rid of the responsibility, not to mention other things, without his old man's connivance, how could the prince dare to act so recklessly Moreover, the fact that Qi Shiwu was able to become the presiding judge was not approved by the old man himself. In fact, what's the matter with Guan Sanye?Of course, the truth is so, but the old man obviously doesn't intend to reason with the elder brothers, so he is extremely arbitrary and regards Qi Shiwu as the culprit. As for the punishment of the third master, he just lifts it up high and lowers it gently , basically irrelevant.

"Huang Ama is lenient, and my son accepts the punishment."

Hearing this is just a one-year salary penalty, the big stone hanging in the third master's heart will fall to the ground, nothing else, a yearly salary of 2 taels of silver is a lot to say, but it can't support the current financial resources of Hongqing's business Gun Gun, more than 20 taels are brought back to subsidize the family every year. The third master really didn't take the punishment of that year's fine to his heart, so there is no reason not to hurry up and thank him.

"It's good to accept the punishment, I don't bother to argue with you, Yinhu!"

After punishing the third master, the old man cast his eyes on the eighth master who was kneeling in the second row, frowned, and called his name in a cold tone.

"My son is here."

When it comes to scheming and the city, the eighth master is still above the third master, so he has already seen what the old man's plan is. It's good to make a profit from it. Such intentions are undoubtedly beautiful, but the reality is cruel. The third master and his son have no intention of resisting at all, so they accept the punishment so easily. Up to now, the eighth master How can he not know that the general situation is over, his heart is really dark and gloomy, when he was thinking about countermeasures, he suddenly heard the old man call his name, he didn't dare to think about it anymore, he quickly knelt up straight, and responded respectfully.

"Talk to Xuan, what the hell is going on at the Ministry of Punishments?"

If you want to suppress the huge turmoil, it is obviously not enough to rely on strong means. The old man knows this well - the old man is the capital who rushed back the day before yesterday. When he arrived in Beijing, he did not return to the palace, nor went to Changchun Instead, he went to Fengtai Daying first, replaced the original Fengtai Daying Admiral Cheng Kun with Wudan, and spent another day calling each battalion's generals to talk. But in the final analysis, it is a bad idea to use the army to forcefully suppress the chaos in the court. The old man will definitely not do this unless it is a last resort. Obviously, if he can subdue the three masters and the eighth If the source of the chaos is the source, the situation can be prevented from further deteriorating. Now that the third master has obeyed, the old man can free up his hands to start suppressing the eighth master.

is into?or back?This has become a difficult problem in front of the eighth master. Jin can naturally publicize Yinreng's ugly face to the world. It is unavoidable. Under such circumstances, whether you can enter the East Palace or not, Ba Ye is really not sure at all. After all, the lessons learned from last year's election are still there, and Ba Ye really doesn't have the courage to take this risk again. However, Ba Ye was unwilling to give up at this point, probably because the price of this plan was really not small, just giving up the two important positions of governor of Fujian and admiral of Guangdong Navy was enough to make Ba Ye heartbroken. , not to mention that he used a lot of the Ministry of Criminal Justice's hole cards this time, thinking that all his achievements will be done in one battle, and now if he accepts the softness, wouldn't all his efforts be in vain?

"When you go back to Huang Ama, my son caught a cold a few days ago and has been sick at home. It was just two days ago that he got better, and he didn't know the reason of the ministry."

Eighth Master thought a lot, but he was not slow to answer the old man's question, and he simply asked a question. Obviously, Eighth Master still wanted to take a gamble in the end, but he was very wise not to She is going to show up in person, but wants to leave the matter of showing up to the nine and twelve masters.

"Well, when you are sick, you have to rest well. I never force others, so I'll just go back to the mansion to take care of me. When I get better, it won't be too late to go to the ministry to do errands."

Ba Ye wanted to get away with it, but unfortunately, the old man didn't intend to let him go off, so he took advantage of the situation and sent him back to his house to recuperate.

"Yes, I would like to thank Huang Ama for her compassion, and I will leave now."

Ba Ye didn't expect that the old man would be so relentless. Hearing this, his heart immediately sank to the bottom of the valley. He wanted to defend himself, but in the end he still didn't have the courage. In desperation, he could only thank him unwillingly. Well, make a gesture to get up and exit.

"Huang Ama wait a moment, my son has something to say!"

Seeing that the old man wanted to drive Ba Ye away so mercilessly, Shi Ye couldn't bear it any longer, kneeled up suddenly, and yelled loudly.
