Chapter 842 Chaos Pattern ([-])

"Your Majesty, please forgive the old minister for speaking bluntly. It is not the Prince Ren who presided over the trial of the case. Otherwise, it will be postponed for a long time. The involvement will become more and more extensive. It is difficult to close the case in a short time."

Fang Bao is a shrewd person, just looking at Emperor Chengde's faltering style, he knows that he is still unwilling to give up the idea of ​​suppressing Hong Qing, and his heart sinks. There is no other, Hong Qing At this time, Qing's wings are already full. He wants people and people, money and money, and has the strong support of the new army. How can Emperor Chengde take care of it at will? If Hongqing is really forced to be annoyed, "It should be staged. For Yu Sheji, it is definitely not a good thing. Thinking of this, Fang Bao dare not sit idly by, so he simply made it clear.

"Hmph, I don't believe that without Butcher Zhang, I would have to eat hairy pigs. I won't mention that fellow, so let me tell you how to deal with this case!"

Fang Bao was kind-hearted, and wanted to wake up Emperor Chengde with serious words, but Emperor Chengde didn't appreciate it at all, waved his hand impatiently, and unequivocally rejected the proposal to invite Hong Qing to be the presiding judge .

"Qizou Your Majesty, if Prince Ren doesn't try it, then the case can only be handled by one of the two elder brothers."

Seeing that there is no hope for He Chengde and his son, Fang Bao couldn't help feeling sad for a while, but there was nothing he could do, he could only calm down quickly, and made a point of view.

"Well... Hong Sheng has always been ignorant, and this time he hooked up with the fourth child again, which is really out of place, but Hong Xi..., this son is intelligent by nature, and I value him very much, but I don't want to I have secretly formed an alliance with Lao Ba without telling me, and I am really disappointed, neither of them is a good choice, and I don't want to take it."

Hearing Fang Bao talking about the second and third elder brothers, Emperor Chengde never concealed his attitude towards the second son, and clearly and unmistakably expressed his attitude that he did not want the two to use this matter to get ahead.

"Your Majesty clearly learned that Xin Chouke's case involved the Eighth Master. There are many constraints for others to investigate. Not only is it difficult to clarify the facts of the case, but it is also in danger of sinking into it. If someone with a heart takes advantage of it again, scholars all over the world may mobilize If there is chaos, the consequences may be unbearable, but we have to guard against it."

Hearing what Emperor Chengde said, Fang Bao felt very bitter in his heart, nothing else, although Fang Bao has seen Hong Qing's tactics and intentions in arranging this situation, can he talk about the way to solve it? There is really no way at all, probably because Hongqing's situation is hidden in this game, if Emperor Chengde really dares to mess around, then Hongqing will not be able to bear it any longer, and play a game of "Xuanwu" "The change of the door" is an inevitable thing. With such an intention, Fang Bao can see it. The problem is that he can't say it. If not, he will really become the leader of the Qing Dynasty. The guilty minister, because of this, Fang Bao can only explain the matter as it stands.

"So, I can only choose Hongsheng? But..."

Emperor Chengde was still a bit clever, and Fang Bao's analysis would not be considered unfounded. The problem was that neither Hongsheng nor Hongxi was the candidate he wanted, especially for Hongsheng, a son who had never learned much. Emperor Chengde didn't even have a shred of goodwill, and even when Hong Xi was getting too close to Ba Ye, Emperor Chengde was unwilling to let Hong Sheng, an idiot son, preside over such an important case.

"Your Majesty, I think it's the best choice for Second Elder Brother and Hongli to try this case together."

Seeing Emperor Chengde sighing there, Fang Bao felt very uncomfortable. However, it is difficult for the father and son of the Tian family to live in harmony. If the prince is weak, then that's all. It was going to be a big problem, and Fang Bao had already anticipated this. In fact, the old man had been doing his best to support Hong Qing at the beginning, and he was afraid that Emperor Chengde would act recklessly after he came to power, but in the end Obviously not very good, probably because Emperor Chengde's desire for power is too strong, no, he didn't sit still, he just wanted to liquidate Hong Qing, a hero, and he really couldn't blame Hong Qing for fighting back Regarding this, although Fang Bao was filled with emotion in his heart, he did not speak out, but cautiously gave a judgment.

"Ok?"

Hearing Fang Bao's words, Emperor Chengde couldn't help but froze, frowned, and let out a small sound full of doubts.

"Your Majesty, it is clear that the Xin Chouke fraud case involves Heshen, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, and Ding Xufeng is also a member of the Eighth Master. There is no doubt that the Eighth Master must be involved in this case. Therefore, it is not appropriate for the third elder brother to take the initiative. Judgment, on the other hand, the second elder brother, with the support of the fourth master, will definitely solve the case in order to rise up, and there will be a vicious fight between the two sides around this case. No matter who wins or loses, it is a good thing for His Majesty , even if the case is delayed for a long time, it will only make the court situation in chaos. As long as you can follow the trend, you can slowly adjust it, and you will not worry about the instability of the court situation. It is the best policy.”

Fang Bao knew very well that what Hongqing wanted was the pattern of chaos, in order to buy time to make another arrangement, but he had to follow Hongqing's wishes to appease Emperor Chengde, and he was being led by the nose. The feeling of leaving is obviously not so pleasant, but the general situation has been controlled by Hong Qing, no matter how uncomfortable it is, Fang Bao can only admit it with his nose, unless he wants the society to be in chaos, otherwise, he really can only help Let Hongqing go to persuade Emperor Chengde.

"Chaotic pattern? Then chaos is fine. I made a decree when I turned around, and let that kid Hongsheng go to toss about it."

Emperor Chengde was more or less self-aware, knowing that it was not suitable to confront Hongqing head-on at this time, he thought to himself that he had already arranged a back-up, with the chaos of the court as a cover, and it would be more beneficial for him to manipulate secretly, so he didn't procrastinate any longer , waved his hand, and immediately made a decision.

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

As soon as Emperor Chengde made such a decision, Fang Bao's tense heartstrings immediately loosened, but he didn't dare to bring it to his face, but hurriedly bowed and praised...

"What? How could this be!"

Emperor Chengde was not originally a decisive person, but his efficiency was extremely high this time. No, what was decided in the morning had already issued three edicts in the afternoon. Da transferred back to the capital, took charge of Fengtai Camp, and took the title of Minister of the Ministry of War; secondly, transferred Fujian governor Meng Guangzu to be the governor of Zhili, and secondly, handed over the case that had been raging for the past few days to his second elder brother Hongsheng and others. Prince Yong's son Hongli went to preside over the trial. When the news reached Prince Lian's mansion, Ba Ye was having lunch. Hearing this, his face turned pale, and the silver chopsticks he was holding fell to the ground and returned. I don't know it.

"Bastard Xingzi, what are you still doing in a daze, quickly, go and ask Mr. Lu to come, go!"

After being stunned for a moment, Ba Ye finally woke up from the shock. Seeing that all the servants waiting around were in a panic, he burst into rage, roared and yelled, a big mistake It's not surprising that he was gentle and elegant in the past. Originally, Ba Ye didn't care about his second elder brother Hongsheng. After all, that guy is just a worthless dude. There is no shortage of philistine cunning, but when it comes to talent and learning, But it was nothing at all. In the eyes of Eighth Master, the second elder brother was just fooling around. However, even so, Eighth Master did not take it lightly. These days, he has secretly deployed it, intending to mobilize his confidant ministers The one who originally recommended the third elder brother Hongxi, but never thought that it would not be mobilized. Emperor Chengde actually issued an edict like this, not only without court discussion, but also without discussion with the kings and great scholars. It was such arbitrariness in the world, completely different from the indecisive and indecisive style of Emperor Chengde in the past, which inevitably surprised Ba Ye inexplicably.

"twitter!"

Seeing that Ba Ye's expression was not right, the servants who were waiting beside him didn't dare to delay at all, they responded chaotically, and when they saw the opportunity, they trotted out of the hall, and after a while, they saw Lu Chunyan, who was dressed in a green robe, turned around from behind the screen in a calm manner.

"Lu has met the prince."

Lu Chunyan has always been calm and composed, even if Ba Ye's complexion is not very good-looking, he is still the same, but seeing him walk to the table unhurriedly, bowed to Ba Ye, and greeted Ba Ye in a peaceful voice .

"Mr. came just in time. The person in the palace has already issued a clear order to let the second elder brother and the boy from the fourth family preside over the case of Xin Chouke. What should we do?"

Ba Ye was very impatient, and before Lu Chunyan finished his ceremony, he anxiously asked about the policy, nothing else, probably because of this, the matter was too involved, since it could not be solved by a strong man cutting off his wrist, if he had to Knowing that Hongsheng is not good enough, but Hongli is a formidable character, not to mention that there is fourth master hiding behind, and with Hong Qing and Emperor Chengde staring at him from the sidelines, eighth master can't help worrying that he will be liquidated .

"My lord, don't worry, no matter what happens, it can be discussed after all."

Lu Chunyan knew about the imperial edict before he came, and he already had a clear judgment in his heart, but he was not in a hurry to speak, he just smiled calmly, lifted the hem of his robe, and looked at it. Sitting opposite Ba Ye, he replied slowly.

"Hmm..., you all stand down!"

Seeing that Lu Chunyan was so calm, Ba Ye's troubled heart was a little more at ease, and then he realized that there were too many people waiting around him, and it was really inappropriate to talk about confidential matters, so he waved his hand and shivered He took a sip.

"twitter!"

Hearing Ba Ye's order, all the servants did not dare to be negligent, they all agreed and left the hall respectively.

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

Although Ba Ye's heart has stabilized a bit, his anxiety still hasn't dissipated. As soon as the servants retreated, he asked questions impatiently.

"It's not a problem. The left and right are just a chaotic situation in which all parties struggle. There is really no need to worry too much."

Lu Chunyan obviously had a well-thought-out plan, and gave Ba Ye a clear answer in a straightforward manner.

"Chaotic pattern? This..."

Lu Chunyan had already figured out what was wrong, but Ba Ye was so upset that he didn't understand what he meant, and asked half of the question in a daze...
