Chapter 448 Blowing the Pot (Part [-])

"Mynah."

It was already a bit cold in late October, especially after dark when the wind blew up again, and the temperature was naturally a few degrees lower. However, it was as warm as spring in the Xinuang Pavilion of Baye Mansion. On August, September, and Thirteen The master and Lu Chunyan gathered around the couple, drinking lightly and chatting at the same time. While enjoying the wine, they heard the sound of footsteps at the entrance of the corridor. Everyone followed the sound, and immediately saw the fourteenth master lying on his back. Turning his face away from the stairway, he shuffled to the side of the chairs, greeted Ba Ye sullenly, and then fell heavily on the futon.

"Old Fourteen, you are the last one to arrive again, come on, let's not talk nonsense with you, come on, and punish yourself with three cups first!"

Old Ten was obviously in a good mood today, and he didn't care about Old Fourteen's expression, he put a jar of wine in front of Old Fourteen, laughed and yelled.

"Ah."

Old Fourteen was in a bad mood. In fact, since he lost the contest in front of many courtiers in late May, Old Fourteen had no smile on his face. These days, he had to hold on In charge of the overall situation in the Ministry of War, raising all kinds of supplies for the old thirteen who is training in Beigukou, the old fourteen really can't find any reason to be happy. Naturally, he doesn't bother to answer the old ten's teasing. After answering, he picked up the wine jar, broke the seal, and did not pour the wine into the wine bottle in front of him, just holding the wine jar and pouring it wildly.

"Hahaha..., well, the old fourteen is the old fourteen, so refreshing!"

The tenth old man is a cannonball, always only caring about his own happiness, but he doesn't care about the mood of the fourteenth, especially at this time when the wine is slightly drunk, and there is no taboo, but seeing him grinning, it is already a challenge Thumb, laughing maniacally.

"Tenth brother, don't mess around, fourteenth brother, too much alcohol will hurt your health, and you should drink less."

Seeing that Old Ten was making a fuss too much, Master Ninth couldn't bear it anymore, so he frowned, stopped Old Ten's nonsense in displeasure, and persuaded Old Fourteen kindly.

"Ah."

The old fourteen didn't pay attention to the laughter of the tenth old, nor the kindness of the ninth master, but just gave a noncommittal noncommittal.

"Fourteenth brother, you should have heard about it. Today, the Ministry of Industry has made a big move. It plans to change the money law. Right now, the capital is in a state of explosion. In a few days, those people below Once the local dignitaries know about this, they are afraid that they will not be able to criticize it, this fun, hey, it really makes a big fuss."

Seeing that Old Fourteen was still unhappy, Old Ninth had no choice but to talk about the matter of the Ministry of Industry today, intending to use this to draw out Old Fourteen's talk.

"The strategy of slowing down the army is nothing to worry about."

Old Jiu's good intentions did have an effect, but obviously, the effect was not very great, so Old Fourteen just rolled his eyelids, made a simple comment, and then closed his mouth tightly.

"Ok?"

"What?"

……

As soon as Old Fourteen said such endless words, Old Ninth and Old Ten were immediately stunned. Nothing else, they still couldn't see through the truth behind the big drama in the Ministry of Industry today. The reason is that he only stayed on the surface of watching the excitement, but a gleam of light flashed quickly in Baye's eyes, but he didn't show anything else, just smiled indifferently.

"Old Fourteen, what do you mean by that? How come the more you listen, the more confused you become?"

The old ten was rough-tempered, after waiting for a while, seeing that the old fourteen had no intention of explaining, he couldn't hold back anymore, so he hurriedly asked a question.

"It's hard to guess. It's just that Hongqing'er is reluctant to bear the power of the Ministry of Industry, and is trying to find some troublesome things for Hongli during the Eastern Expedition."

The old fourteen used to have a good personal relationship with Hong Qing, but since Hong Qing cheated him when he competed for the leadership position last time, now that he is mentioned next time, he is full of resentment, and his tone of voice has become sharper some.

"Grandma is a bear, I dare to believe that this bastard has such an idea, hey, he went to earn military achievements by himself, but let me wait here to live in peace, what a vicious heart! No, this matter must not be called that kid Proud to go!"

Old Fourteen had already spoken so clearly that Old Ten would not fail to understand. Once he figured out what was going on, his anger suddenly flared up, he blushed and slapped his neck roughly, angry He cursed vigorously.

"Well, although tenth brother's words are rough, they are quite reasonable. This matter really cannot go according to that kid's wishes. Moreover, if the reform of the money law really goes on like this, the gang of idiots will stop making trouble. In the future, I'm afraid it won't end well, so I simply messed up the matter during the court meeting, and I'll save that little bastard for nothing!"

Old Nine was careful, and naturally considered the issue much more deeply than Old Ten, but the final conclusion he reached was the same as Old Ten's, and he did not intend to let the reform of the Qian Law pass through the court council.

"Disaster!"

The old fourteen still had that lifeless look, facing the impassioned speeches of the two elder brothers, he just touched his lips and spit out a word expressionlessly.

"Old Fourteen, you have made your words clear, what time is this, and you are still playing in a mysterious way."

Old Ten was obviously fed up with Old Fourteen's strange ambiguity, and when he got angry, he dismissed him angrily.

"Brother Ten, please think about why Huang Ama transferred Hong Qing'er into the army, and you can understand the root cause."

The old fourteen didn't care about the tone of the old ten, he still kept his expressionless face, shook his head, and pointed out the key point in a weak mood.

"Ok?"

Although the tenth old man is not stupid, but his ability to calculate is obviously not enough, he is only a martial artist, and he can't taste the meaning of the fourteenth words at all, so he can only scratch his head wildly.

"So that's the case, Huang Ama intends to give Hongli a chance, doesn't that mean..."

Master Jiu's reaction was quick, and he immediately understood the meaning of Old Fourteen's remarks, but he obviously hesitated in his final judgment.

"It's hard to say, the heart of heaven is unpredictable, and my younger brother doesn't dare to judge it."

Old Fourteen actually had a judgment in his heart, but he didn't intend to say it out, so he just said something vaguely and perfunctorily.

"Brother, look at this..."

Since the old fourteen said so, the ninth master couldn't bear to ask further questions. He frowned and thought about it, but he still wasn't sure what the old man's real intentions were, so he handed over the decision to the eighth master.

"Sir, how do you think this matter should be dealt with?"

Ba Ye was also deeply troubled by this situation. Although he already had some ideas, he was not at all sure when it came to certainty. He refused to speak casually on this matter, so he frowned and took advantage of the situation to put the question It was pushed to Lu Chunyan who was always silent.

"The Fourteenth Lord is right. Your Majesty transferred Hongqing to the army this time to give Hongli a chance to perform. The reason is simple. You have to shop around to buy goods, let alone set up As far as your majesty is concerned, even if the third master is the first, it may not be the best. After all, you have to give others a chance to perform, or maybe you can get a surprise. Hongli and even the fourth master , are just the targets of His Majesty's investigation, but there is no need to worry too much."

Needless to say, Lu Chunyan's intelligence and calculation ability is very strong. After a few words, he has already explained the old man's mentality very clearly.

"So that's the case. In Mr. Yi's opinion, what should we do with this court meeting?"

Lu Chunyan's judgment is actually not much different from what the old fourteen said, but it is more clearly stated. The eighth master will certainly not understand, but what the eighth master really cares about right now is not what the old man thinks , but was entangled in whether to cooperate with the fourth master, nothing else, the third master is now popular and powerful, and the eighth master felt that it was difficult to block the edge of the third master alone, so he wanted to use the fourth master as a help, but First of all, the reform of the money law involves too much, and once it is implemented, the pressure and losses that the Eighth Master will have to bear will not be too small. Besides, if the Fourth Master is really allowed to sit on it, it is not what the Eighth Master would like to see. Because of this contradictory psychology, Ba Ye couldn't help but hesitate a lot in his heart.

"Baye asked a good question. There are two sides to a self-examination. Although Hongqing's son gave Hongli a hot potato, in fact, he gave him a chance to express himself. From this point of view, it is inevitable that there is a suspicion of making a mistake. It is certain that the fourth master will hold on to it tightly, and there is only one reason for it, that is, the betting prince, you will stand by on the surface and support him in the dark. In fact, Hong Qing'er should also be like this If so, why don't the prince do the opposite!"

Lu Chunyan obviously had a plan in mind long ago, and at this moment, he was not at all confused when he heard the question from the eighth master. With a light smile, he was able to point out all the calculations in all directions with ease, and finally gave a clear suggestion .

"Well, sir, you mean..."

Hearing Lu Chunyan's analysis, Ba Ye should have the feeling of seeing the blue sky through the clouds and mists, and he already had a decisive idea in his heart, but it's a big matter, and Ba Ye didn't want to act hastily, so he hesitated to ask He spoke in half.

"Oh, the prince must have thought of it. Since His Majesty wants to race horses, he will naturally approve Hongli's book, and the reform of the money law will definitely be implemented. It's just that this process must not be made easy. He, the fourth master, is also a hero. He can only be used, but he cannot be used as a support. It is customary in the officialdom to use knives, and under the interests, among the local officials, there may be few who agree with it, and the prince can plant a banner, which should have the magic of winning people's hearts, so why not do it?"

Lu Chunyan didn't make too much of a fuss, he pointed out the way to deal with it while talking and laughing, and his peaceful words were full of self-confidence that couldn't be concealed.

"That's a great strategy, starling, let's do it!"

As soon as Lu Chunyan finished speaking, the irritable old ten couldn't bear it anymore, so he yelled loudly.

"That's right, starling, my little brother also thought it might as well go on like this!"

Master Jiu thought about it, and felt that this strategy was very good, so he agreed with it.

"Hmmm, sir, do you have any good strategies for the court proceedings?"

Ba Ye was already moved, but when he thought of Hong Qing's unparalleled eloquence, he couldn't help worrying that it would be difficult to resist during the court meeting, so he cautiously asked a question.

"The general trend, although it is difficult to stop it, but it is easy to delay it for a while. Here, there are six fundamental questions to ask. When..., so, there must be something to do!"

Lu Chunyan had already done all the calculations, and he had a good idea in his heart, so he gave detailed suggestions in an understatement.

"Okay, that's it!"

After Ba Ye carefully deliberated on Lu Chunyan's argument, his heart suddenly became angry, and he no longer hesitated, and made a decision full of confidence.
