Kowloon wins

Chapter 988

On the night of the ninth day of August in the fourth year of Chengde, the Black Clothes Lane burst into flames, and the old house of Arson'a was razed to the ground. The emperor was furious when he heard that, and summoned Geng Sanbiao, the admiral of the nine gates, into the palace. As soon as this news came out, the government and the public were immediately agitated by it. Under the impetus of people with good intentions, all kinds of rumors unfavorable to Geng Sanbiao spread wildly, and all the elder brothers even mobilized to attack. If it flew into the palace like snowflakes, this situation was obviously a bit serious for Prince Ren's family, but Hong Qing didn't say a word, and the courtiers who were close to him didn't dare to act rashly. The tendency of public opinion will inevitably have a one-sided trend.

Although the public opinion is one-sided, it can be said that it is nothing but noisy. Before Hong Qing said something, no one dared to take Geng Sanbiao seriously. He ordered Geng Sanbiao to quickly find out the truth about the fire in Ah Mansion, but he didn't dare to dismiss Geng Sanbiao from his post. For a few days, Hongqing might not be in trouble, but Emperor Chengde's reputation might be ruined. Undoubtedly, at this level, Emperor Chengde was unavoidably anxious, and sent oral instructions several times, asking Hongqing went to the palace to discuss matters, but Hongqing was unmoved, and simply "felt the wind and cold", and sent back Li Dequan, who had been coming to pass the decree one after another throughout the day.

Time passed quickly amidst the hustle and bustle, and in a blink of an eye, four days passed, and it was already beyond the three-day deadline given by Emperor Chengde to solve the case, but the investigation of the nine admirals' yamen was still in progress. There was no result, but Emperor Chengde did not continue to issue an edict to reprimand him, but kept silent strangely, only a group of elder brothers were still jumping up and down crazily, and it was really like playing monkey games It's generally the same, but no matter how they make a fuss, Emperor Chengde didn't dare to make a noise.

"Reporting to my lord, Prince Ren is here, just outside the gate of the mansion."

Emperor Chengde refused to express his position, and the troubles made by the third elder brother and others were just for nothing. Of course, it cannot be said that it has no effect. No, tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival. When he returned to the mansion, he hadn't even changed his court clothes yet, when he saw the head of the palace rushing over anxiously, he hastened to make a report.

"what?"

Don't look at the third elder brother who is now crowned king and in charge of the household department. He can be regarded as the head of the top power in the court, but when he heard that Hong Qing came to the door, he still couldn't help it. There was a burst of fright, and after an exclamation, the eyeballs couldn't move, there was nothing else, there was a ghost in my heart.

"My lord, why don't you just go back to Prince Ren?"

Seeing that the third elder brother was stunned for a long while without saying a word, the head of the palace couldn't bear it any longer, and hurriedly asked for instructions in a low voice.

"No, open the middle door wide, and the king will go to greet you in a while."

Refuse Hong Qing's visit?The third elder brother thought about it, but he just wanted to think about it, but he didn't dare to really do it, but when he saw Qi gritted his teeth, he bit the bullet and gave the order.

"twitter!"

Hearing the third elder brother's order, the manager of the palace didn't dare to say any more, hurriedly bowed and agreed, and hurriedly ran to the gate of the mansion.

"Go, pass on the king's order to let Zhang Fanggang and others stay in the Xiaoyaoju Center obediently and not go out without authorization!"

After the head of the royal residence retreated, the third elder brother did not rush to greet Hong Qing at the gate, but whispered to a personal book boy who was waiting beside him in a cold voice.

"twitter!"

Hearing that the third elder brother's voice was not right, the personal book boy dared not neglect him, hurriedly responded, and hurriedly rushed out...

In front of the gate of the Prince's Mansion in Shun County, a luxurious carriage stopped in front of Zhaobi with the curtain tightly closed. More than a hundred guards armed with live ammunition formed a battle formation to guard the surrounding area, and there were nearly a thousand guards in full new army equipment outside Zhaobi Scattered vigilance, although there are many people, there is not the slightest noise of noise, there is only a huge murderous aura, this kind of posture is really frightening, and all the people in Shunjun Palace are silent for life, He didn't even dare to breathe out.

"Brother, younger brother is late to greet you, forgive me, forgive me."

There was a sudden sound of chaotic footsteps, and the third elder brother had already led a large group of servants out of the mansion gate. Seeing that the curtain of the luxurious carriage had not been opened, the third elder brother was obviously stunned for a moment, There was a look of shame and annoyance in his eyes, but he soon woke up, smiled, and very respectfully went down the steps in front of the mansion. As soon as he bowed, he raised his voice and greeted the carriage.

"It's okay, it's because my brother came suddenly and caused trouble."

As soon as the third elder brother opened his mouth, two personal guards standing beside the carriage stretched out their hands to roll up the curtain of the carriage. Immediately after seeing Hong Qing bowed, she got off the carriage and glanced at the third elder brother indifferently. He apologized in a nonchalant manner.

"Don't dare, don't dare, elder brother can come, the younger brother's mansion is full of splendor, it is inconvenient here, can you please talk to elder brother's mansion?"

Hearing Hong Qing's indifferent words, the corners of San elder brother's eyes twitched a few times involuntarily, and his heart was even more nervous for no reason. Fortunately, the city was deep enough, and he didn't show any obvious gaffes. He extended the invitation with a smile on his face.

"Okay, third brother, please."

For the third elder brother's invitation, Hong Qing did not refuse, but nodded indifferently, and walked towards the gate of the residence.

"Brother, please sit up."

Seeing Hong Qing going to her house so straightforwardly, the third brother's smiling face froze involuntarily, but he soon came back to his senses, turned around and followed Hong Qing. Step by step, he rushed to Hong Qing's side, and very courteously led Hong Qing to the second hall.

"Don't worry, it's the first time for Brother Wei to come back to the third brother's house, no matter what happens, he has to visit it for a while, and the third brother can just accompany Wei brother for a walk."

The third elder brother was very considerate, but unfortunately Hong Qing didn't buy it. She waved her hand and gave an order in an unquestionable tone. After that, she didn't care about the third elder brother's reaction, and went unhurriedly. Go across the courtyard on the left side of the front yard.

"Eh, that's good, that's good, the little brother will just accompany the big brother for a walk."

Seeing that Hongqing's attitude is so firm, and the direction of walking is the left courtyard where Zhang Fanggang and others are hiding, the third elder brother's face froze again, did he intend to stop him, but when the words came to his lips, he was stunned. That courage, in desperation, could only embarrassingly accompany the smiling face, reluctantly lagging behind Hong Qing by half a body, and turned into the round arched door across the left courtyard one after the other.

"Third brother has always been elegant, and the layout of the mansion is unique. It's really good, good, very good."

According to the Wangfu grid system, the left and right sides of the front yard are actually where the servants live. In fact, there is nothing to look at. However, Hong Qing seems to be very interested, and from time to time makes some comments on the surrounding scenery. Sentence, but the feet never stopped.

"Brother laughed at me. This is just a willful act. It's really hard to be elegant. Hehe, let me tell you the truth, this place is just a servant's residence. I really didn't pay too much attention to it. If you want to talk about the scenery, The layout of the little brother’s back garden is something to watch, if the big brother doesn’t give up, and let the little brother accompany the big brother to enjoy it for a while?”

Although the speed of Hongqing's feet is not fast, she seems to be just walking casually, and commenting from time to time, if it is really like visiting, the direction that can go is undoubtedly the Xiaoyaoju where Zhang Fanggang and others are hiding. As soon as the situation came out, the third elder brother couldn't bear it anymore, but he didn't dare to tell whether Hong Qing did it for a purpose, or it was just a coincidence, but no matter what, the third elder brother didn't want such a situation If it went on like this, Ji suggested something with a smile, trying to lure Hong Qing to another place.

"No hurry, let's watch here first, and then go to the back garden later. Uh huh, Xiaoyaoju, heh, this word must be from the hand of the third brother, yes, yes, it really has a bit of carefree meaning, Brother, I'm quite looking forward to this place, let's just take a look inside."

Although Zuo Kua Yard is not small, but the area is limited after all, it really didn’t take long to wander around, the group of people had already arrived at Xiaoyaoju on the far side, and Hong Qing was about to go to Xiaoyaoju before the third elder brother could react. I walked in the small courtyard where I lived.

"Brother, wait a minute, it's messy inside, so it's better not to look at it."

The third elder brother is not a dull person. How can he not know that the purpose of Hongqing's coming here is this happy home? Although he doesn't understand why Hongqing is interested in this matter, the third elder brother is No matter what, she didn't want Hong Qing to enter it, so she hurried out from the side and blocked Hong Qing's way regardless.

"It's okay, let's take a look."

Hong Qing ignored the third elder brother's obstruction at all, stretched out her hand, and pushed the third elder brother to the side involuntarily, and then, regardless of how ugly the third elder brother's face was, Shi Shi ran led Ding Song and other ten guards and turned around the screen wall in front of the courtyard gate.

"Humph!"

The third elder brother failed to forcibly block Hong Qing, the hostility in his heart suddenly rose, he gritted his teeth ferociously, as if he had the idea of ​​mobilizing the whole house to kill Hong Qing in one fell swoop, but when he thought of the thousand people outside his house, The personal guards of Prince Ren's Mansion who were full of ammunition, the ambition that the third elder brother had raised just now completely dissipated, and he could only stomp his feet in resentment, and angrily led the dozen or so accompanying followers. Followed by turning into Xiaoyaojuzhong.

"Eldest brother, look quickly, that's Prince Ren!"

"Brother, the situation is wrong, what should I do?"

"Eldest brother, the visitor is not kind, why don't we withdraw first?"

……

Zhang Fanggang and the others were hiding in a small building in Xiaoyaoju, condescending, so they easily noticed the arrival of Hong Qing and the others. Beside Zhang Fanggang, muttering in a low voice, immediately made Zhang Fanggang, who was already guilty, break out in cold sweat...
