Chapter 651 The Oriole and the Hunter ([-])

"Twelfth Uncle Mingjian, although the Ministry of Industry is ranked last among the six departments, when it comes to its importance, it is probably only under the Ministry of Officials. If such an important place is chaotic for a long time, no matter how the emperor's law is Forbearance, I'm afraid it's unbearable, if there is another treacherous villain to instigate, the consequences will be terrible, so, there must be a thunderbolt method, I don't know if Twelfth Uncle thinks so?"

Hongli is like a seasoned hunter, regardless of whether the old twelfth is angry, happy or disapproving, he remains unmoved. He is not in a hurry to solve the mystery, but patiently circles with the old twelve, step by step. Set up a trap, and slowly lead the old twelve into the net.

"so what?"

Knowing that Hongli was trying to sell Guan Zi, but the old twelve had to follow Hongli's pace, nothing else, because what Hongli said was exactly what the old twelve was worried about—it's not that the old twelve didn't think about the future The imperial decree forced all the gentlemen of the Ministry of Industry to submit, but it is a pity that they wanted to go back to thinking about it, but they could not do so. There is no other way. , Old Twelve does not have the power to serve all the people in the Ministry of Industry. At this moment, hearing that Hongli seems to be sure of solving this matter, Old Twelve can't help being moved. Of course, the heartbeat is the heartbeat, but the guarding heart has never disappeared. He didn't directly ask the root cause, but He responded noncommittally.

"It doesn't matter what it is, but I'm afraid Uncle Twelve will have to find another job."

Seeing the Twelfth Master standing there, Hongli immediately showed a mocking sneer, and stabbed the Twelfth Master unceremoniously.

"Oh? Hahaha... Brother Li's joke is really good. It's worth laughing at. I don't know if Brother Li has anything else to do?"

Hearing Hongli's words, the Twelfth Master laughed out of anger, reached out to pick up the tea bowl, and put on a posture of preparing to serve tea to see off guests.

"Since the twelfth uncle is already planning to find another job, then it's okay for my nephew to be busy, and I will leave!"

Hongli came prepared, so how could he be intimidated by the bluff of the old twelve, but seeing him close the folding fan with a "snap", he shrugged his shoulders indifferently, straightened his waist, Taking advantage of the situation, he stood up, shook his wide sleeves, and made a gesture to leave.

"slow!"

Seeing that Hongli was really going to leave, Lao Twelve became a little impatient. Nothing else, Lao Twelve's so-called trump card was nothing more than thinking about dancing on three eggs. With the egg removed, wouldn't his old twelve be in danger of stepping into the air, so he couldn't really get into a fight with the fourth master, even though he knew that Hongli's move was suspected of trying to get him, the old twelve would He had no choice but to stop.

"Does Uncle Twelfth have any orders?"

Hongli originally pretended to leave, but now that the Twelfth Master called to stop, he was so happy to stand up, but he didn't plan to sit down again, so he stood there leisurely, and asked a question in a leisurely manner.

"Brother Li, don't worry, come on, sit down and talk, sit down and talk."

The twelfth master is kind and forbearing, otherwise, he would not have stayed in the household department for more than ten years, and he could live in peace with the always gloomy fourth master. If he put down his airs now, he would really be shameless, but seeing He stood up with a pleasant smile, and politely greeted Hongli to sit down again, that flattering smile was full of humility.

"Uncle Twelve is too polite."

Hongli was not pretentious, he smiled politely, and sat down again, but he didn't say any more, but sat still with a smile on his face, obviously waiting for the twelfth master to speak seek.

"Well, let's not hide it from my nephew, my uncle is indeed suffering from hardship and sorrow, so I don't know if my nephew can teach me anything?"

The Twelfth Master is worthy of the reputation of being able to stretch and contract. Although he had a deep fear of Hongli in his heart, he didn't show it on his face. He bowed his hands in disbelief and asked for advice.

"Don't dare, my nephew is just having some superficial thoughts. Let's put it this way, the Ministry of Industry is an important weapon in the court, and it is not someone who can dominate it. Now the twelfth uncle came to take charge under the order, which is justified. For example, the younger generation tried to deal with it by procrastinating in vain, the righteousness has been lost, there is nothing wrong with Twelfth Uncle's actions, my nephew has a plan here, when..., the younger generation will definitely let the younger generation reap the consequences!"

This time, Hongli didn't make too much of a fuss, but seeing him smiling confidently, he unhurriedly explained the strategy he was thinking in detail.

"Well... this strategy is feasible, but I don't know how to reward my nephew as my uncle?"

The Twelfth Lord listened to Hongli's statement quietly, without interrupting or commenting, but after a long silence, he asked tentatively.

"Uncle Twelfth is too worried. My nephew has nothing else to ask for. He only wants to be righteous. If Uncle Twelfth is worried, he can just give my nephew two foreign ministers or if he is in need of a job. If it is inconvenient, then It’s okay to make up.”

Hongli smiled, and put forward an almost insignificant request in a calm manner.

"Oh? That's it?"

The Twelfth Master obviously didn't believe that Hongli would help him free of charge, let alone that Hongli would really have any good intentions for justice. Although he didn't say it clearly, the tone of the question was full of unbelief that couldn't be concealed.

"My nephew is telling the truth. Uncle Twelfth can do as he sees. You are busy with business, so my nephew won't bother you any more. Farewell!"

Hongli didn't care about Twelfth Master's distrust at all, he had already said what he should say, but Xiao Twelfth Master still wanted to bypass Hong Qing, Hongli didn't worry about Twelfth Master not taking the bait at all, After laughing and throwing down a scene, he got up and walked away without stopping.

"My lord, the last general is incompetent, those dogs are..."

Just as Hongli left, Ha Qito turned around from behind the screen with a face full of shame, rushed to the Twelfth Master in a few strides, bowed down, and angrily wanted to accuse those palm print doctors rude.

"Don't say too much, just step back."

The Twelfth Master already knew that Ha Qituo was destined to return empty-handed, and he didn't bother to listen to his report. Before Ha Qituo finished speaking, the Twelfth Master impatiently waved Ha Qi Tuo sent it away, but he himself sat silently, his brows furrowed into a big "Chuan"...

At the hour of Haishi, the night was getting dark, but the Twelfth Master was not tired at all. Even though he drank a little too much during the previous drink, his spirit was still high, not for anything else, but because of Prince Lian The government and his party have gained a lot. Thinking that tomorrow morning, they will be able to grasp such a big piece of fat from the Ministry of Industry as they wish. I couldn't help laughing out loud for a long time, but this good mood didn't last long. Just when the Twelfth Master was about to get out of the big sedan chair, he saw a stalwart out of the corner of his eye. The figure of the man was standing under the lantern in front of the palace, his heart skipped a beat, and the smile on his face froze.

There are definitely not many people in Manjing who can make the Twelfth Master lose his temper like this, and Hong Qing is one of them. There is no doubt that it is Hong Qing who is standing outside the gate of the Twelfth Master's mansion at this moment!

"My nephew has met Uncle Twelve."

Before the Twelfth Master came back to his senses, he saw Hong Qing walking down the steps slowly. Wherever he passed, the guards and servants of the Lujun Prince's Mansion did not dare to stop them, and stepped aside one after another, and Hong Qing did not hesitate. Shi Shi said that he walked to the sedan chair with a calm expression, and greeted him very politely.

"Oh, it's Brother Qing. I don't know that my nephew is so late. Is there anything important to come to find my uncle?"

Although he was extremely jealous of Hong Qing's sudden visit in his heart, the Twelfth Lord thought he had the confidence to deal with it, and he didn't show any timidity. Instead, he smiled and bowed his hands and asked kindly. said a word.

"My nephew came here to discuss something important with Uncle Twelve, so it's inconvenient to talk about it here. Wouldn't Uncle Twelve want to invite my nephew to talk inside?"

Hong Qing smiled, and bluntly expressed her intentions, teasing Lord Twelfth in a relaxed tone.

"My nephew was joking, come on, sit in the room."

Seeing Hongqing's fearless appearance, the Twelfth Master couldn't help but mutter in his heart, but since Hong Qing has already arrived here, the Twelfth Master really dare not turn her away , I could only smile awkwardly, waved my hand, and gave way to Hong Qing to the gate of the mansion. The uncle and nephew went to the second hall, talking and laughing. Hurry up and serve the freshly brewed fragrant tea.

"Nephew's visit late at night, there must be something difficult, so you might as well say it bluntly, but if you can do it as an uncle, I dare not refuse."

Even though he was sure of solving the problems of the Ministry of Industry, the Twelfth Master still did not dare to offend Hong Qing too much. Nothing else, Hong Qing's transfer from the Ministry of Industry was not demoted, but promoted to the center. I don't know which ministries he is in charge of, but he is already an extremely human minister. Besides, the Twelfth Master is also afraid that Hong Qing will have a ruthless counterattack, so he is willing to pay some price to obtain a compromise with Hong Qing. Hence, the Twelfth Master's words were very straightforward, and it was a posture of giving up and asking for anything.

"Hehe, Uncle Twelfth is so polite, must be the promise of support from Uncle Eight? Tsk tsk, Uncle Twelfth is really amazing, even dare to deceive Eighth Uncle, my nephew really admires it."

The Twelfth Master was going to be generous for the last time, but the problem was that Hong Qing didn't intend to accept it at all, but seeing him smiled indifferently, he sneered at the Twelfth Master with disdain.

"you……"

The Twelfth Master obviously didn't expect Hong Qing to slap her in the face as soon as she came up, the smile on her face froze immediately, her eyes stared, and she was about to explode, but in the end, she still didn't have the courage, so she could only be angry He took a deep breath, staring at Hong Qing with burning eyes...
