Kowloon wins

Chapter 20

"Little lord, the lord has confessed that you should go to the study as soon as you return to the mansion."

After sending away the troublesome Yin Lu with a few words, Hong Qing went back to the mansion. Just as she got out of the carriage, she saw the doorman greeted her with a smile on her face, and accompanied her carefully to report a sentence road.

"Oh? Got it."

When she heard that her father had invited her, Hong Qing was taken aback for a moment, but she soon came to her senses and didn't say much, she just responded indifferently, raised her feet and rushed to the study room in the inner courtyard, her heart was full of anxiety. Still deducing possible changes in the current situation——In terms of the current situation, Hong Qing dares to assert that Suo'etu will definitely take the risk, but the ending will not change much, and defeat is a certainty, nothing else So, Suo'etu can't be the opponent of Mr. Kangxi at all. As for whether the old eight, who intends to make a profit from the fisherman, can successfully involve the prince, it is hard to say. The key point of the deduction is that there are too few clues. Even though Hong Qing has made many assumptions, it is still difficult to come to a conclusion.

Um?Why are you there?

Thinking back to thinking, Hong Qing's feet were not slow at all, but after a while, she had already arrived at the inner study room, and just now she turned around from behind the screen, and she saw Yin Zhi, who was dressed in light purple single clothes, sitting at the head, The four advisers of the Wangfu sat on the left and right respectively, and it was clearly the pattern of discussing matters. They couldn't help but move in their hearts, but they didn't stop on their feet.

"Let's discuss it all, what kind of regulations should this matter be?"

Yin Zhi's head was covered with sweat, it seemed that he had just returned not long ago, he was anxious to discuss matters, he had no intention of chatting nonsense with Hong Qing, and after Hong Qing's ceremony was over, Yin Zhi just pointed to his side to signal Hong Qing stood and listened, then, looking around at the counselors, she opened her mouth with a hint of excitement.

"Master Mingjian, this old man thinks that there is something very strange about this matter. I am afraid that the villain is behind the scenes and wants to use this to destroy the foundation of His Highness the Crown Prince. However, he is so wise today, how can such sneakiness be hidden from Sheng Chazai?" , therefore, it is advisable to adapt to everything that remains the same.”

As soon as Yinzhi finished speaking, Meng Guangzu, who was the number one counselor, spoke first, and spoke with a group of wisdom beads in his hands.

"Of course, yes, what brother Meng said is true. Such rumor-mongering is the behavior of a child's rogue. With His Majesty's wisdom, how could he ignore it and get involved in it? I'm afraid it will inevitably lead to disaster. Mr. Liang I thought that reporting the truth to His Majesty would be the first to get the credit, as for the rest, it is better to just sit and watch."

Liang Xuwen, the second counselor, obviously felt the same about Meng Guangzu's suggestion, and without waiting for Yinzhi to express his opinion, he shook his head and echoed it.

"It's good to say that the prince only needs to report the situation in Beijing truthfully. No matter what the current situation is, the prince can just sit and watch the wind and clouds turbulent. Why not do it?"

Seeing that the first two were in favor of sitting and watching the development of the situation, the third counselor, Chen Guanzhao, had no different opinions, so he clapped his hands and enthusiastically agreed.

What?This is the strategist that Dad values?They are simply a group of lovers!
It was the first time for Hong Qing to participate in an audit, and she was still very energetic, thinking that she would gain a lot of insight, but when she heard the words of the three counselors, the golden stars in her eyes suddenly shot out, and they converged into a big character—— Depend on!But after thinking about it, I don't think it's strange. These guys are all so-called celebrities, and their essays and Fu may be okay. When it comes to scheming, they are all in vain. It's nothing more than that the court situation has been very stable before this year, and there is no major issue that requires them to be counselors. This sudden incident, yes, it will be revealed immediately, and the dares are all silver-like pewter tips, which are not useful stuff!
In Hong Qing's view, it's not impossible to just sit and watch the wind and clouds turbulent. It is very stable, but if you want to benefit from it, it will be nothing at all. Not only that, but it will leave a mediocre bad impression on Mr. Kangxi ——The old man has been dissatisfied with the prince for a long time. The reason why he wanted to take down Suo'etu was to cut off the prince's left and right arm. Now he is not in a hurry to change horses, but he is just worried about the chaos in the community. In other words, the prince will definitely sit down. The position of the East Palace is not stable, and the rest is the question of which of you elder brothers. Obviously, on this point, the old man himself has not made up his mind, and is still waiting and watching. Now, the current situation has evolved to this point, and it may be over. It will be an exam. Although it is not a final exam, it can be said that it is a mid-term exam. There is no doubt that on the road to winning the heirloom, light stability is not enough, and there must be means. How can the old man be wise? How can you rest assured that you will hand over the country and the country to a mediocre person?

"Well... Zicheng (Li Minquan's word), what do you think about this matter?"

Yinzhi is not a very decisive person, originally he planned to take advantage of the chaos to get a vote, otherwise, he would not rush back to his house to discuss matters as soon as he heard the rumors, but now he heard the three counselors They all advocate seeking victory while maintaining stability, and changed their minds immediately, but there was still a trace of unwillingness. After pondering for a while, they still did not rush to make a decision, but turned their attention to Li Minquan who had always been silent.

"Well……"

Although Li Minquan is also one of the four great counselors, but after all, his foundation in the mansion is still shallow, and he usually just follows the trend when discussing matters, but this time the handle fell into Hong Qing's hands, so naturally he couldn't follow the trend Well, the problem is that Hong Qing hasn't said anything yet, so he didn't dare to say anything casually, so he had to pretend to nod in a contemplative manner, half-closed his eyes to cover up his gaze on Hong Qing.

Bet!

Although Li Minquan's gaze was covert, Hong Qing was keenly aware of it. She knew that it was time to see the real chapter, but she still hesitated in her heart——Hong Qing has been doing a lot these days. I tried my best to collect information from all parties, and I also secretly deduced possible changes in the current situation. Unfortunately, the information I got was very limited. Even though I had the advantage of foresight about the general trend, I couldn't guarantee that the judgment I made would be the best. It's a good choice, but since things have come to this, Hong Qing can only gamble ruthlessly, so while everyone in the room is focusing on Li Minquan, she quietly slaps "two" gesture.

"Brother Li has a very good opinion, you might as well talk it out and discuss it."

Meng Guangzu is not only the number one counselor of Chengjun Prince's Mansion, but also the eminent family of the capital. He always thinks highly of himself, and has always looked down on Li Minquan as a low-ranking candidate. I was very dissatisfied with the suggestion in my heart, so I ran out of words and said.

"Meng Gong's words are serious, and he dare not take the high opinion. It's just that Li has some thoughts, and I don't know if he is right. I have to ask the prince and the princes to inquire."

After receiving the secret signal from Hong Qing, Li Minquan was not only unable to feel at ease, but even more anxious, but he couldn't help it. He had no choice but to grit his teeth secretly, clasped his fists with both hands, and put on a low pose. His gestures and words were sincere.

"Zicheng has something to say, but it's okay to say it, my king is listening."

Yinzhi didn't have much expectations for Li Minquan at first, that is, he just asked casually out of unwillingness, but seeing that Li Minquan really had other ideas, he immediately became interested, and encouraged Li Minquan kindly One sentence.

"My lord Mingjian, I think that this rumor is probably not groundless. Even if there is a small person behind the scenes, it also makes it clear that the Holy Majesty is dissatisfied with the person in the East Palace. There is no escape, but this person has been known for many years and is deeply entrenched in the government and in the field, so he is not someone who can be easily arrested, and chaos in the capital is bound to arise, I wonder if the prince thinks so?"

Li Minquan suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, quickly organized his words, and narrated the analysis results that Hong Qing gave him in private.

"Scaremongering! It's just groundless rumors, why don't you stop here!"

Meng Guangzu thought that Li Minquan was not pleasing to his eyes, but when he heard that what he said was contrary to his own judgment, he became ashamed and angry, and before Yinzhi could speak, he scolded him with a stern face and unceremonious words.

"Zicheng's words are wrong. He has been assisting the government for more than [-] years. He has been the hero of the Dragon. The Holy Majesty has great trust. Even if he is dissatisfied, he should not be punished too severely. Back then, Mingzhu was monopolizing power and secretly encouraged him. Eldest elder brother is seeking the position in the Eastern Palace, His Majesty is only dismissing him from the post of minister of the bodyguard, the title of bachelor is still the same, and now he is traveling with the emperor to visit Shandong. It is too much to gossip and accuse others of crimes, too much!"

Liang Xuwen also disapproved of Li Minquan's analysis, and refuted Li Minquan's words bit by bit.

"Otherwise, Mingzhu can be magnanimous only because the elder brother is not the prince, or even not the prince's choice, so there is no need to deal with it seriously, just cut the power, but Suoxiang is different. With him, the holy majesty can't touch the prince. It is also the way of death, and it is rare for someone who has been a prince for nearly thirty years since ancient times, but now it is at the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period, and the strangeness can be seen at a glance, just as Song Zu said: How can others be allowed to lie on the side of the couch? Snoring like thunder?"

Now Li Minquan was forced to go to Liangshan, no matter how disturbed he was, he could only bite the bullet and refute the opinions of Meng and Liang.

"Crazy words, you..."

Seeing that Li Minquan, a submissive junior in the past, dared to refute him, Meng Guangzu's face suddenly became unbearable, and he opened his mouth to scold him angrily.

"Ok!"

Although Yinzhi lacked decisiveness, he was not mediocre. Hearing this, he agreed with Li Minquan's analysis in his heart, and he would not let Meng Guangzu mess around, so he raised his hand with a sullen face, and stopped. After Meng Guangzu groaned for a while, he waved his hand at Li Minquan and said, "Zicheng continued, what should I do in this situation?"

"My lord, I think this matter should be divided into two steps. First, report all the strange things in Beijing to His Majesty, so as to prevent Suo'etu from jumping over the wall. In addition, Fu'an, the admiral of the Shandong Navy, is Suo'etu's disciple. Suspicions of abnormal movements must be brought to the attention of the Holy Majesty; second, since children dare to spread rumors, they must be prepared, and chaos in the capital may be inevitable, and the prince must be prepared early."

Now that this point has been said, Li Minquan has no possibility of backing down, so he looks serious, and speaks out the strategy that Hong Qing has made in advance.

"This……"

Li Minquan spoke impassionedly, but Yinzhi dared to make up his mind hastily for such an important matter, his expression changed constantly, and he fell into deep thought...
