Chapter 771 Good and Bad Things (Part [-])

"My lord, this is indeed a good thing. The little lord has always been good at government affairs, and there are indeed deficiencies in literary matters, which is not conducive to winning the hearts of scholars. Now His Majesty entrusts you with the great task of being the chief examiner, and he will certainly be able to make up for this regret. It's great joy."

Seeing that the third master couldn't understand the meaning behind this edict for a long time, Li Minquan immediately laughed, clapped his hands, and gave an explanation excitedly.

"Well, if that's the case, it's a good thing. It's just that Qing'er lacks qualifications, but she may attract endless criticism, but what should I do?"

After Li Minquan's explanation, the third master understood it, but he didn't let it go, on the contrary, it made him even more troubled, nothing else, because the third master thought he had a great literary name and vaguely held the status of the prince , the chief examiner did not give him the third master, but gave it to Hong Qing. The third master felt that he had been neglected no matter what, but it was hard to express such thoughts, so he could only change the topic casually.

"Don't worry, my lord. With you sitting in the middle, even if there is a little trouble at night, it will definitely be difficult to cause a big wave."

Li Minquan's housekeeping skill is to observe facial expressions, and in this respect, he is absolutely top-notch. When he saw the third master's lack of interest, he immediately guessed what the third master was thinking. This master is enjoying the taste, since he didn't dare to go casually, he praised the third master in a hurry.

"Although this is the case, it is better not to take it lightly. Zicheng will pass on the word, be careful everywhere, and don't give bad people an opportunity to take advantage of it. In addition, write more praise articles on the newspaper to prevent villains Manipulating public opinion, after all, you have to do your best in every aspect.”

Li Minquan's flattery was very timely, and he vaguely regarded Hong Qing as a pawn in the front, implying that the third master was the commander in chief of the Chinese army. Grandpa still eats this set, and even if his depressed mood has been slightly untied, his words have obviously increased, and he arranged it in a serious manner.

"My lord is wise, and my subordinates admire him so much."

Now Li Minquan wants to follow the third master with all his heart, so he can do whatever he wants to make the third master happy. It is clear that the strategies the third master said are just superficial and useless, but Li Minquan is still tight Hastily made a sincere praise and began to praise.

"Forget it, this is just an ordinary method, and it can't be said that it is wise or not. Do you think so?"

Being praised twice by Li Minquan, the boredom in the third master's heart has been relieved a lot, but he didn't have the nerve to brag about himself, pretended to be modest, and threw the question to the always silent Chen old master.

"My lord is wise."

Old Master Chen glanced at Hong Qing meaningfully, but his gaze was just swept away, not very conspicuous, and he even praised faintly, obviously he didn't want to say more about this matter.

"Oh, no matter, let's stop here. Looking back, Qing'er will make a few excuses from the last chapter of humility. If Huang Ama doesn't change it in the end, the chief examiner will do it as soon as possible. Yes."

The third master didn't notice anything wrong with Old Master Chen's eyes. Seeing that Old Master Chen also agreed with his plan, he felt that there was nothing missing, so he didn't want to say anything more. After explaining the scene, he went Immediately thereupon, he got up, walked out of the study with a flicker, and went to catch up on sleep without mentioning it.

"Little Prince Haihan, my subordinates still have some housework to do, so let's go ahead."

After the third master left like this, Li Minquan felt uncomfortable with the boss, nothing else, he has become increasingly estranged from Hong Qing recently, but he is quite close to the third son Hong Xi, and now he is really afraid of seeing Hong Qing, no, the third son As soon as the master turned the screen, he got up impatiently, bowed to Hong Qing with a flattering smile on his face, and said please resign.

"Zicheng doesn't need to be formal, but it's okay to go."

Hong Qing originally wanted to have a good talk with Mrs. Chen, but she was worried that she had no excuse to drive this guy away. It just so happened that he proposed to leave by himself. There was no reason for Hong Qing to be unhappy, so she nodded and agreed with a smile on her face. .

"Thank you, little prince, for your kindness. This subordinate will leave."

After hearing Hong Qing's consent, Li Minquan hurriedly confessed a few words and left in a hurry.

"Little prince, I heard that the peach blossoms in the back garden are already turning red, how about going for a spring outing with the old man?"

Old Master Chen has always been a cautious person, even though the third master and Li Minquan had already left, he was not in a hurry to discuss with Hong Qing, but extended the invitation calmly.

"Master has such an elegant spirit, students should accompany him."

Hong Qing smiled knowingly, got up hastily, and replied very respectfully.

"Ah."

The old master didn't say any more, stood up, walked slowly towards the door, seeing this, Hong Qing didn't dare to procrastinate a little, she was half a step behind, and followed behind the old master step by step, all the way without a trace Then he went to the back garden.

"Does the little prince know why His Majesty made such arrangements?"

At this time, the Lantern Festival is just over, and the grass and trees have just recovered, and there are only a little green hanging on the branches. As for the peach blossoms, they are actually just some small buds, not even red, so there is really nothing to see, but what, master and apprentice People didn't mean it, but they didn't care much, so they just walked casually, and when they got to a secluded place, the old master finally broke the silence and asked a question with the intention of taking a school exam.

"Returning to Master, I thought that what Li Zicheng said was just one-sided words. There may be something strange in it. It's just that the student is stupid and hasn't fully grasped the essentials. I would like to ask Master to give me some pointers."

It has been such a long time since receiving the decree, and Hong Qing has actually thought of some key points in his heart, but he didn't want to show too much, but humbly asked for advice.

"Heh, the little prince's words are not very sincere. In fact, you have already seen it. Yes, the reason why His Majesty arranged this way is actually to arrange the affairs before and after him. It is not surprising."

Old Master Chen glanced at Hong Qing jokingly, shook his head, and explained what Hong Qing was thinking in one word.

"The disciple is ashamed."

Seeing that the old master had broken his mind, even if Hong Qing was a little impressive, he just had some words. Old Master Chen could say that as a son and grandson of a man, he was not good at talking nonsense, so he could only speak vaguely He groaned.

"Your Majesty seems to have worked hard for the past year, but in fact, he is just exhausting his body. His lifespan will not be long. If nothing major happens, it will be fine. If there is a slight ups and downs, His Majesty's dragon body will definitely hinder him. This one, come to think of it. His Majesty also knew it well, so he had to make arrangements in advance. The reason why he asked you to be the chief examiner, of course, was to let the little prince recruit more students for future use. The reason for the longevity of the Lord is included."

Old Master Chen didn't care about Hong Qing's little embarrassment, and continued talking on his own, thoroughly analyzing the old man's mind.

"..."

Regarding Old Master Chen's judgment, Hong Qing really didn't know what to say—since Hong Qing came to this era, the original history has been turned upside down, and the fate of countless people has been changed because of Hong Qing. The most prominent among them is the third master. From a soy sauce generation, he suddenly became the candidate for the heir. Status, I really don’t know how much thought and energy has been spent, and because of the huge wealth that Hong Qing brought to Prince Cheng’s mansion, the third master is obviously a bit over the top in terms of indulgence, even if he was born out of childhood. Her good body and bones have been almost hollowed out at her current age. How long she can live, Hong Qing really has no bottom in her mind, but there is one thing that Hong Qing is clear about, that is The third master's lifespan will definitely not be too long. Of course, Hong Qing absolutely cannot say this, even if she is facing the most trustworthy Old Master Chen, it is no exception. In view of this, Hong Qing could only remain silent.

"The future of the little prince is extremely difficult. There are Fourth Master, Eighth Master and other lunatics outside, and there are brothers fighting openly and secretly. In addition, the third master himself is a muddleheaded person. He can do it, for this, the prince must be prepared."

Old Master Chen never had any reservations in front of Hong Qing, and he never had any scruples at all, he straightforwardly analyzed the matter thoroughly, and his sharp words immediately made Hong Qing's forehead sweat.

"Master taught me the lesson, this disciple knows what to do."

Hong Qing herself is also a calculating person, so she knows that what Old Master Chen said is the truth, and she can't be careless at all, but Hong Qing has long been aware of this, and has made arrangements in advance, like a "sharp knife" " and other secret organizations are the foreshadowing that Hong Qing has laid early to deal with the future situation. In addition, the new army is also an important pawn. In addition to the two major business giants "Kirin Company" and "Eight Banners Company", Hong Qing was actually not afraid that those ambitious people would turn the world upside down.

"Well, it's not difficult to deal with small matters with the talent of the young prince, so there is no need to say too much as a teacher, but right now, I'm afraid to be careful in this spring boudoir, whether it's the fourth master or the eighth master , will definitely not just sit back and watch the possibility of the little prince expanding his power, it is inevitable to take action to disrupt the situation, as for where to start, it is still hard to predict, the little prince should be cautious."

Old Master Chen always doesn't care about how Hongqing operates in detail, and only makes judgments in the general direction. In Old Master Chen's opinion, Hongqing can handle the rest of the details. Therefore, after a few points, there will be no more Instead, it brought the topic back to the issue of Chungui.

"Disrupt the situation, uh..."

If Old Master Chen didn't mention it, Hong Qing might not be able to remember it for a while, but after mentioning it, a strange case in that time and space in the previous life immediately surfaced in Hong Qing's mind, and her eyes froze instantly. , a wave of murderous aura burst out indistinctly...
