Kowloon wins

Chapter 424 Unpredictable ([-])

"That's enough, Ben Baylor has his own opinion, there is no need for me to mess with my life, and if I don't back down, don't blame Ben Baylor for not being sympathetic!"

Hong Qing didn't give him a chance to finish his sentence at all, waved his hand with a gloomy expression, and stopped drinking with extreme impatience.

"Ah, yes, sir, I'm rude."

Being reprimanded by Hong Qing repeatedly, even though Balang Pudang was choked to death, he still didn't have the courage to fight Hong Qing to the end, so he had to return to his original position resentfully, and fell down heavily. Sitting on the chair, his face was ashen and dejected, and he didn't have the slightest energy to speak of, not for other reasons, but because he knew very well that he might be doomed this time.

"Brother Li, what else can I say, huh?"

Although Balangpu has a hideous face, he is nothing more than a small shrimp after all. It is impossible for Hong Qing to waste any more time on him. Once he is forced to retreat, he no longer even looks at him, his face is gloomy He looked sideways at Hongli, whose eyes were full of panic, raised the corner of his mouth, and asked in a cold voice.

"Brother Qing, my younger brother thinks that Li Langzhong changed his words on the spot, there must be something hidden in it, we must thoroughly investigate to see who is threatening Li Langzhong behind his back, so that he dare not uphold justice!"

After all, Hongli is not an ordinary person. Although he was severely hit by Li Shuangchun's sudden betrayal before, he did not completely collapse because of it. In just a few breaths, his mentality has adjusted, and facing Hongqing's shouting, Without panic at all, he said in a calm voice.

"Changed your words on the spot? Hey, it's a good one to change your mouth on the spot. Come and compare the two sets of account books to see the difference."

Hong Qing wanted to beat Hongli to death with a stick, so she couldn't be fooled by her pretending to be calm, so she didn't ask any more questions, but sneered, raised her voice, and said coldly: .

"twitter!"

With Hong Qing's order, all the guards of the royal residence who were waiting in the hall dared not neglect. After agreeing in unison, a guard rushed to the hall and picked up the account book that Hongli had dropped on the ground earlier. Others went straight to the accounting room, summoned several accountants urgently, and started the comparison procedure in the lobby.

"Reporting to Qing Baylor, the comparison of the two account books has been completed. There are four discrepancies involving about 11 seven taels of money. In addition, the handwriting of the two account books is roughly the same. At first glance, it seems that they were written by the same person. However, after careful comparison, several differences can be seen, and the lower officials can assert that these two ledgers were definitely not written by the same person."

The so-called many people are easy to handle, all accountants are masters of accounting, and each of them is extremely quick to calculate. With the cooperation of each other, it took only a stick of incense before and after, and two books that are not very thick After all the comparisons were completed, one of them stood out from the crowd and reported the results to Hong Qing.

"Well, it's work."

Hong Qing waved her hand expressionlessly, and waved away the written note of the person who came to report the matter, and then looked around the officials with different expressions in a very solemn way, and said in a cold voice: "Everyone My lord, the truth has now come to light. Some villains wantonly framed Sun Dongfang with ulterior motives and vicious intentions. It is tolerable or unbearable. How can Ben Baylor tolerate it? This matter is so important that it cannot be postponed for a moment. Go to the palace, you are all waiting here, if you dare to leave without authorization, don't blame Ben Baylor for being ungrateful!"

"Om..."

As soon as Hong Qing finished speaking, she didn't care about the expressions of all the people, she got up abruptly, and walked down the hall with big strides. When all the officials saw this, there was a dead silence at first, and then, the voice of disorderly discussion stopped. Worked up...

"Qi Zuo Your Majesty, Qing Baylor is asking to see you outside the palace gate."

In the cold winter of the twelfth lunar month, the weather is extremely cold, but the study in Qianqing Palace is as warm as spring, but there are two huge braziers burning blazingly by the corner, and the heat emitted keeps all the breath of severe winter out of the study. , the old man in bright yellow unlined clothes was sitting in front of the chessboard, holding a white piece in his hand, staring at the intricate board with a slight frown, hesitating and not knowing where to place the piece, he was thinking hard, but saw Qin Wuyong hurriedly turned around from behind the screen with small steps, walked quickly to the side of the old man, bowed, and hastened to report.

"Well, let him wait first, Li Dequan."

The old man didn't raise his head from the board, he just raised his eyebrows, gave a simple command, and then called Li Dequan's name in a slightly higher voice.

"The slave is here!"

Li Dequan was waiting on the sidelines. Hearing the old man's roll call, he didn't dare to be negligent, so he hurriedly came out from the side, and obediently accepted the promise with lowered eyebrows.

"Go, check and see how the Ministry of Industry is doing now."

The old man still didn't take his eyes off the board, and ordered casually.

"twitter!"

As soon as the old man opened his mouth like this, Li Dequan didn't dare to procrastinate. After a respectful reply, he hurriedly left the study room. After less than a stick of incense, he hurried back and approached the old man cautiously. Beside, after calling softly, he respectfully handed over the booklet he took out from his sleeve.

"Yo, the result is out, huh, interesting, let Mr. Linggao take a look."

The old man stretched out his hand to take the pocketbook, and spread it casually. When he saw it, a smile appeared on his face, but he didn't comment on it, and handed the pocketbook to Fang who was sitting on the opposite side of the chessboard. bract.

"Your Majesty, this matter is indeed interesting. However, Fang has heard that Qing Baylor has been out of Beijing several times on business, and has been in danger every time. I don't know if it is true or not?"

Fang Bao also did not comment on the things contained in the notebook, but asked an irrelevant question.

"Hmm... Li Dequan!"

As soon as Fang Bao's words came out, the smile on the old man's face disappeared immediately, he stretched out his hand to stroke the long beard on his chest, then nodded thoughtfully, and let out a noncommittal noncommittal.

"The old slave is here!"

As the head eunuch who was in charge of the intelligence system before the old man, Li Dequan knew what was recorded in the booklet, but he couldn't understand what the old man and Fang Bao meant by talking like this, and he was thinking about it secretly. Hearing the old man's roll call suddenly, he didn't dare to think about it any more, he hurried out from the side, and responded respectfully.

"Go, pass on the oral order, and say that you are tired, let Hongqing go back first, and it will not be too late to discuss anything tomorrow."

The old man glanced at Li Dequan, and spoke in a calm voice.

"twitter!"

Li Dequan thought that even if the old man was not furious, he would take action to mediate the dispute between the Ministry of Industry, but he didn't expect that the old man would come and ignore it. For a while, he really couldn't react. He hurriedly agreed, and led the two young eunuchs to the palace gate to declare the decree without mentioning it.

What?Let's discuss it tomorrow, I'll fuck it, the old man is planning to sideline this, no way!

In front of Tiananmen Square, Hong Qing, who had been waiting for nearly half an hour in the wind and cold, heard Li Dequan's oral order, and the anger in her heart surged uncontrollably. I don't believe that the old man will know nothing about the current situation. In this case, the old man's avoidance is obviously to protect Hongli, and this is not the result that Hongqing is willing to accept. In Hongqing's opinion Come on, Hongli is a poisonous snake. If you don't beat him to death with a stick, you will be bitten by this poisonous snake sooner or later. Hongqing will never do such a stupid thing as a farmer warming a snake.

"Eunuch Li wait a moment, Ben Baylor really has something important to do and needs to be interviewed immediately, please ask Eunuch Li to report on his behalf."

Li Dequan planned to leave after delivering the oral order, Hong Qing naturally refused to give up, her figure flashed, and she blocked Li Dequan's way, but there was no other faux pas, but she bowed her hands humbly, politely And asked firmly.

"This... well, let this old slave try again. Whether it succeeds or not depends on His Majesty's will."

Seeing Hongqing so resolutely blocking the way, Li Dequan couldn't help but feel a little upset, but no matter how upset he was, he didn't dare to really get into trouble with Hongqing, the popular grandson of the dragon, so he could only laugh at it. He bowed with a smile, and agreed very reluctantly.

"Thank you, Eunuch Li!"

Even though Li Dequan knew that Li Dequan's words were mostly dealing with elements, Hongqing was also very helpless, nothing else, even if he is the grandson of the dragon, he must not trespass in the palace without obtaining the will, otherwise, it would be a capital crime of treason and injustice. Although he was extremely annoyed in his heart, he could only thank him helplessly, and stepped aside to get out of the way.

"His Majesty!"

In the study room of Qianqing Palace, the chess game was still going on, Li Dequan, who turned around from behind the screen, approached the old man lightly, and called softly.

"Ok?"

The old man didn't look up, but just let out a soft, inquiring voice.

"The old slave has announced His Majesty's oral order, but Qing Baylor still insists on seeing him. The old slave has no choice but to ask His Majesty to express it."

After Li Dequan obviously hesitated for a while, he still spoke out Hong Qing's request.

"This careless bastard!"

Hearing Li Dequan's words, the old man raised his brows immediately, threw the white piece in his hand on the chessboard, and cursed angrily, but he didn't express Hongqing's intentions. Xian said coldly: "Qin Wuyong, go, declare Xuan's will."

"twitter!"

As soon as the old man Jinkou opened his mouth like this, Qin Wuyong, who was waiting beside him, dared not delay a little bit, he hurriedly responded, led the two young eunuchs, and hurriedly left the study room, he went to pass the decree without mentioning it.

"..."

Li Dequan couldn't figure out which play the old man was singing. He wanted to ask a question, but he was afraid of offending the old man. stepped aside...
