Kowloon wins

Chapter 437
"Returning to Huang Mafa, according to Sun'er, although this battle is a win-win situation, there are completely different results between a big victory and a miserable victory. The root of the problem lies in who is the commander. Fourteenth Uncle has few opponents in the world, but this expedition is not limited to land battles. The key to naval battles is even more important than land battles. Only by breaking the Japanese navy and forts can we ensure the smooth landing of our expeditionary army. Because of this, My grandson thinks Uncle Thirteen is handsome or more appropriate."

Hong Qing was not in a hurry to answer the old man's question, but after pondering for a moment, she cautiously pushed the old thirteen out to fight the old fourteen.

"Om..."

As soon as Hong Qing's words came out, the courtiers who filled the square suddenly started discussing indiscriminately. Everyone knew that he was originally the fourth master. Er Hongqing actually recommended the old thirteen as handsome, everyone was a little confused, besides, the old thirteen has been in captivity for more than three years, and he still can't tell when he is handsome, let him be handsome , it's too childish, isn't it?

"Hong Qing, this is the imperial court, don't talk nonsense, the thirteenth brother has already been imprisoned, how can he be handsome!"

Master Shi was very violent, and when he heard Hong Qing recommending the old thirteen in court, he became angry on the spot, his face darkened, and he scolded without hesitation.

"Tenth Brother's words are good. How can Jun Qian joke that Nephew Qing is acting so foolishly? I'm afraid it's not a joke. Be careful, be careful."

As soon as the old ten finished speaking, the old nine already echoed sinisterly from the sidelines, trying to squeeze Hong Qing with each other.

"enough!"

The old man was obviously very dissatisfied with the singing and harmony of the nine and ten elder brothers, so he frowned and gave a drink impatiently. Then, he didn't care how ugly the faces of the two elder brothers were, and stared at him with sharp eyes like knives. Looking at Hong Qing, she asked almost word by word: "What does Qing'er mean by this, huh?"

"Responding to Huang Mafa, my grandson thought you were asking who is handsome, so my grandson answered truthfully. As for what other people think, that has nothing to do with my grandson."

Don't look at the coldness of the old man's question, but Hong Qing is not worried at all, nothing else, just because Hong Qing has already seen that the old man does not intend to hand over the commander-in-chief to the old fourteen. There is nothing wrong with the old thirteen being handsome.

"According to the truth? How to follow the truth, I am very curious, let's talk about it."

Hong Qing's reply was obviously a bit tough, but the old man was not angry, and just continued to ask with a blank expression.

"So that Huang Mafa learned that his grandson has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and he is also quite interested in the art of war. However, due to the fact that there is no one to guide him, he has not made much progress, so he put his idea on Thirteenth Uncle. Since the year before last, he has Many times I visited Thirteenth Uncle in private, thanks to Thirteenth Uncle's persistence, I benefited a lot, I realized that Thirteenth Uncle is worthy of the name of an elder brother who knows soldiers, not only good at land battles, but also knowledgeable in sea battles, my grandson is no less than Shisan Uncle San's war game deduction, but unfortunately there are few victories, it is really ashamed."

Since she intends to recommend Lao Shisan, how to explain Lao Shisan's ability is naturally the key point. Hong Qing has already made up her mind about this, and she is very calm when she says that she will come out.

"Huang Ama Mingjian, the thirteenth brother is a prisoner. According to the court regulations, no one is allowed to visit privately. If anyone violates the law, he shall be punished together. Now that Hongqing knows that he broke the law, he should be punished!"

The old ten's resentment towards Hongqing was as deep as the sea, and he always wanted to kill Hongqing, but unfortunately he was the one who suffered all the time. Now that Hongqing admitted that he often visited the old thirteen privately, he immediately came Spirit, before the old man could express anything, he had already sued him.

"Huang Ama, ten younger brothers are right. The imperial court has its own laws, how can it be so reckless. My son thinks that Hong Qing's actions are very inappropriate, and he is suspected of despising the imperial guidelines, so he must be punished."

It was rare for Hongqing to admit her guilt, and of course Lao Jiu would not let go of such a good opportunity to attack Hongqing, so he immediately echoed her words.

"Your Majesty, I think what King Dunjun said is very true. Such evil deeds that despise the laws and regulations of the country must not be taken lightly!"

"Your Majesty, as a child of the Tian family and a member of the imperial court, Qing Baylor did such illegal and rude things. His intentions are ulterior, and his actions are evil. It is a serious violation of the law and should be severely punished."

"Your Majesty, according to the laws of the Qing Dynasty, those who know the law and break the law should be punished with a higher level of crime. Qing Baylor's move must not be taken lightly!"

……

With nine or twelve elder brothers taking the lead, Nalan Kuixu and others, who had long been unhappy with Hongqing, would not let go of this great opportunity to make trouble. The posture of Qing put to death.

"Qing'er, do you have any explanation for this, huh?"

The crowd was yelling viciously, but the old man was not moved by it, he just listened silently until the yelling of the crowd subsided, then he looked at Hong Qing with a half-smile, with a smile on his face. He let out a gloating voice.

"If you go back to Huang Mafa, the grandson's visit to the thirteenth uncle is because of family affection, and secondly, he just wants to learn the art of war and has no other ideas. This is indeed against the law, and the grandson dare not deny it. However, if you can recommend a handsome person for the country to ensure my victory in the expedition to Dongying, even if my grandson is punished, he will be willing."

Hong Qing pleaded guilty in a bachelor's way, nothing else, the matter of making an expedition this time was a big violation of the old man's original intention, and he couldn't escape the punishment, so he simply pleaded guilty and gave the old man an excuse to vent his anger It's also good, so as not to be counted by the old man after autumn.

"Since you have pleaded guilty, then you must be punished. Well, I will fine you a year's salary. After retiring from the court, you will go to the clan's mansion by yourself. I don't care how Prince Zhuang wants to punish you. Are you convinced?"

The old man really planned to teach Hong Qing a lesson this time, so the punishment was given in court.

"Thank you, Emperor Mafaron, my grandson dare not raise any objections."

Hearing the result of such a punishment, Hong Qing's scalp couldn't help but feel numb, nothing else, the one-year fine is a trivial matter, just over 8000 taels of silver, Hong Qing really doesn't like it, but go to Zong People accept punishment, but it's not so easy to play. You must know that Prince Zhuang is a ruthless master. Back then, the sixteenth criminal was in his hands, but he was beaten to bed for several months. Hong Qing and Zhuang The prince has never had much friendship at all, and he dare not expect that the stern prince will be merciful to his subordinates. The problem is that the old man has already opened his mouth, no matter how bitter Hong Qing feels, he can only admit it honestly. .

"Well, that's good. You mentioned earlier that there are a lot of new firearms in the Ministry of Industry, and that the old thirteen is good at naval warfare, but he has never seen it with his own eyes, so I won't comment. Let me give you three days to take all the firearms in the Ministry of Industry. The new firearms are all ready, and we are going to try them out in Nanhaizi, to see how miraculous this firearm is, and, according to the decree, the clan's mansion will bring the old Shisanyi to Nanhaizi in three days!"

Seeing Hong Qing's face turned bitter, the old man couldn't help laughing, but he didn't criticize Hong Qing any more, but turned to talk about business, and after issuing two edicts, he immediately got up , and slowly turned back to the Qianqing Gate.

"Disperse!"

As soon as the old man left, the court proceedings came to an end, Qin Wuyong, who was waiting in front of the door, hurriedly shouted, and led a group of eunuchs and court ladies to chase after the old man in a hurry.

"Qing'er, may Ama go with you?"

After the court was over, the courtiers didn't dare to delay any longer in front of the Qianqing Gate, so they dispersed in twos and threes, but the third master didn't move, walked slowly to Hong Qing, and asked worriedly One sentence.

"Father, the child will bear what he has done on his own, please go back first."

Although the third master is good at dancing, he doesn't have much friendship with the idle and boring clan children in the clan mansion. Whether he goes or not doesn't make much difference. Besides, Hong Qing doesn't want to be punished by herself The image fell into the eyes of the third master, so he shook his head and firmly rejected the kindness of the third master.

"That's fine, just wait here, Ama will go to the harem to beg Emperor Ama for extrajudicial favor."

To the third master, Hong Qing is not just the eldest son, but also the most important arm. He didn't want to see Hong Qing get hurt, so he gritted his teeth, and after confessing, he hurried towards Qianqing Palace. go.

Extrajudicial favor?Hey, if the old man is willing to show kindness outside the law, then he won't let us go to the clan's residence to report, well, this time our little butt seems to be lost!

Although Hong Qing did not stop the third master's act of face-sacrificing, he did not have much hope, probably because the old man wanted to vent his anger on Hong Qing, so how could he possibly give the third master face? In Hong Qing's view, the third master I'm afraid I won't get anything except for a little bit of dust. Instead of waiting here to make people laugh, I'd rather be a bachelor and just get the board that I should get. Thinking of this, Hong Qing He didn't stay where he was, but walked slowly towards the palace gate.

"Brother Qing, you finally came out!"

Qianqingmen is not too far from Tiananmen, but Hongqing walked slowly because of his heavy heart. It took a long time for a stick of incense to wander out of Tiananmen, and was planning to go to Tiananmen not far away, but Seeing two people flashing out by the door, one on the left and the other on the right, sandwiching Hong Qing in the middle, it is surprising that the two old fifteen brothers have arrived.

"Well, Uncle Fifteen, Uncle Sixteen, you two are..."

Seeing that the old fifteen brothers had appeared, Hong Qing couldn't help being taken aback. These two brothers are not qualified to go to court. Normally, these two brothers would go to the "Kirin Company" every morning. Hongqing was a little confused that he would be blocked in front of Tiananmen Square right now.

"Hey, if Master doesn't come, I'm afraid Brother Qing's little butt will be lost."

The old sixteen is a funny master, he didn't care about the occasion at all, he laughed and teased Hong Qing.

"Ok?"

Hearing what Old Sixteen said so strangely, Hong Qing couldn't help being taken aback. Although she didn't ask any questions, she looked at Old Sixteen with undisguised doubts in her eyes...
