Chapter 566 Small Punishment and Great Commandment
"Don't dare to blame? Hey, who do you want to blame?"

The old man made it clear that this time he didn't want Hong Qing to pass the test easily, but when he heard him grinning grinningly and asking questions relentlessly, it was like beating a dog in the water.

Who is to blame?Damn it, the old man is going to play hard, it's not good!

Seeing the tone of the old man's questioning became colder and colder, Hongqing was always bold, but at this moment, she couldn't help being afraid, nothing else, just wantonly provoking disputes in the court is already a Felony, if you counted provoking elder brothers to fight each other, it would be enough for Hong Qing to go to the clan mansion to drink tea. If you really want to add a false statement to deceive the emperor, well, there is no need to go to the clan mansion, He was well washed and ready to be raised in captivity.

"Returning to Huang Mafa, my grandson has no intention of blaming others. Everything that is wrong should belong to my grandson, so my grandson will be responsible for it."

If it is possible to evade, Hong Qing naturally wants to arrest someone to take the blame. The problem is that this is nothing more than a delusion. If there is really a reckless excuse, there is only one consequence, and that is to add to the crime. Will do it, even if she knows that this time may be doomed, Hong Qing can only grit her teeth and admit it.

"Take it? Can I afford it? Huh?"

As soon as Hong Qing's all-encompassing words came out, the ferocious smile on the old man's face suddenly became a bit more serious, and he asked questions repeatedly without mercy.

"Pfft!"

When the old man had such a fit, Hong Qing really couldn't stand up, she knelt down on the ground hastily, but her teeth were clenched, she neither begged for mercy nor said any more words to justify, just knelt quietly like this.

"Well, how will I punish you, huh?"

The old man didn't lose his temper, but he didn't intend to let Hong Qing off so lightly, but after seeing the old man looking at Hong Qing coldly for a long time, he asked a question slowly.

"The grandson is at the mercy of Huang Ma."

Since it was doomed, Hong Qing was also a bachelor, neither defended nor begged for mercy, but put on a sincere face as if to admit punishment.

"Well, I'll fine you a year's salary, will you be convinced?"

The old man didn't get angry anymore, Hong Qing raised his brows, and issued a fine for it.

"what……"

Upon hearing the result of such punishment, Hong Qing couldn't help being a little dumbfounded. It wasn't that the punishment was heavy, but that it was really light enough, nothing else. One year's salary would be a serious crime, but Hongqing's family is extremely rich, although the yearly salary is more than [-] taels of silver, it's just a drizzle, it's really not a big deal.

"What? I have objections, huh?"

As soon as Hong Qing showed such a shocked and inexplicable expression, the old man frowned immediately, and he snorted coldly as if extremely displeased.

"Grandson dare not, grandson accepts punishment."

objection?That was a dead end, and Hong Qing felt lucky enough to be able to escape under the wrath of the old man, so how dare she have any objections, she quickly kowtowed her head, and replied respectfully.

"That's good. Tomorrow, let's go from the last apology book."

The old man obviously didn't want to say any more, and after the punishment was over, he immediately issued an order to expel the guest.

"The grandson obeys the order, and the grandson retires."

As soon as the old man let go, Hong Qing didn't dare to procrastinate any longer, hurriedly kowtowed, and then exited Ruijingxuan, leaving the garden in a trance.

"Little lord, the lord has confessed that he wants you to return home as soon as you leave the garden."

Hong Qing had just left Changchun Garden, Li Minxing, who had been waiting outside for a long time, immediately led a group of guards to meet him, and hurriedly reported.

"Well, go back home!"

Hong Qing was in a bad mood, so she was too lazy to say much. She lowered her head, snorted, and walked quickly to the carriage parked beside her. I leaned on it, but felt that my vest was cold, and then I realized that my back was already drenched with sweat...

"His Majesty."

There are two flowers blooming, one for each branch, not to mention how Hong Qing was worried about gains and losses in the carriage, but he said that he had just left Ruijingxuan not long ago, when he saw Fang Bao, who was dressed in commoner clothes, slowly walking out from the back hall , bowed towards the old man, and called out in a peaceful voice.

"Um……"

The old man didn't express anything special, he just let out a long sigh of relief.

"Ah."

The old man didn't speak, and Fang Bao just smiled lightly, and didn't say much, just stood there quietly.

"I can't finish everything, after all, I have to leave some thoughts for the latecomers, that's all, let's not talk about this, I hope that bastard can understand my painstaking efforts."

After sitting in silence for a long time, the old man suddenly smiled, shook his head slightly, and uttered a word of emotion.

"Your Majesty Shengming."

Fang Bao didn't comment on the old man's words, but simply praised him.

"Let's draw up an imperial edict."

The old man gave Fang Bao a meaningful look, but he didn't say anything more about the previous incident, but waved his hand, and some of them gave the order in a waning mood.

"The old man obeys."

Fang Bao responded respectfully, walked slowly to the side, picked up the wolf hair on the pen stand, dipped it in the ink, picked up the pen as if he was listening to the instructions, but the old man was slow Without opening Jinkou, the atmosphere in the hall inevitably became weird...

"Qing'er is back, how is the situation?"

In the study room in the inner courtyard of Prince Cheng's mansion, the third master, who had just returned to the mansion, was explaining today's meeting with the two counselors Chen and Li. Suddenly, from the corner of his eye, he saw Hong Qing coming out from behind the screen. She stopped talking, and before Hong Qing could see Li, she couldn't wait to ask.

"So that the father can know that the matter is like this..."

Hong Qing had already thought about it all the way, but she still couldn't figure out which play the old man was singing. Hearing the third master's question, she couldn't hide anything at all. Described in detail the scene where the monarch and his ministers played the correct song alone, and the third master's complexion changed unceasingly, and the cold sweat poured down uncontrollably. It was obvious that he was also frightened by the old man's thunderbolt, until Hong Qing said When the result of the punishment was announced, the third master let out a long sigh of relief.

"In that case, is there only one year's salary fined, nothing else?"

Although the third master is not a wise man, he still has self-knowledge. How can he not know that he can have the current status? It is all Hong Qing who is behind the overall situation. If Hong Qing really falls down, the third master really doesn't know what to do How to deal with the extremely complicated court battles, because of this, even though Hong Qing had clearly stated the result of the punishment, the third master was still worried, and hurriedly spoke to confirm.

"It should be. Huang Mafa doesn't seem to have any intention of getting into it."

Hong Qing herself wasn't sure whether there would be follow-up actions, and faced with San Ye's questioning, she could only give an uncertain answer.

"This... Master, Zicheng, do you two have any advice on this?"

The third master was obviously stunned by the old man's sudden attack, so he smacked his lips, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say, so he had no choice but to throw the question to He invited Chen and Li, the two great counselors, and hoped that they would be able to explain why.

"Your Majesty, this subordinate thinks that your Majesty's small punishments and big warnings should be a warning, and you must deal with them carefully."

Li Minquan's reaction was very quick, as soon as the third master's words fell, he had already replied, what he said was reasonable, but it was just superficial, without any substantive connotation.

"Warning? What does Huang Ama want to warn?"

The third master was originally flustered, but after hearing what Li Minquan said, not only did he not feel at ease, but he became even more nervous, so he hurriedly asked.

"Your Majesty, your majesty is getting older and has no ambition to make progress. What you want is to keep the evening festival intact. You don't want to see the possibility of chaos in the court. This time, the Sacred Heart dictatorship forcibly suppressed the renewal of military equipment. It is to warn all elder brothers not to start disputes again, the intention is undoubtedly good, but... huh, the tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop, Your Majesty's painstaking efforts may be completely in vain, however, as far as my Prince Cheng's residence is concerned, It’s true that it’s better to be stable, but if you don’t get to the root of it, let it go if you can, and I think that’s what the Holy One meant.”

Li Minquan dared to rush to speak, naturally he was thinking about it, when he saw the third master was at a loss, he couldn't help laughing, and explained in detail confidently.

"So that's the case, uh... Master, in your opinion, should it be so?"

After Li Minquan's explanation, the third master naturally understood, and his uneasy heart eased a little, but he didn't dare to rest assured, and asked Old Master Chen carefully.

"What can be tolerated, let's tolerate it for the time being, and what cannot be tolerated is still not tolerated. The prince only needs to proceed from the righteousness of the society, and there is nothing he cannot do. If he looks forward and backward, it will be easy for the villain to take advantage of him. As for Your Majesty, I think so." I can understand it, otherwise, I wouldn't let the little prince pass the test so easily."

Mrs. Chen's opinion is obviously different from Li Minquan's. Not only does he not advocate that the third master should give in everywhere, but he thinks that he should have the courage to act.

"This……"

The third master's nature is a bit weak, because of this, he actually agrees with Li Minquan's safe proposition, but he can't help hesitating after hearing what Old Master Chen said.

"This is just a small trial. What His Majesty wants to see is whether the prince has the courage under pressure. It's really nothing special. It's just a beating. Why doesn't the Holy One know that the elder brothers are so jealous in order to win the heir?" , how could it be possible that it would die down after a few beatings, what should be done, the prince should do what should be done, if not, the Sacred Heart might not be the same!"

Old Master Chen sneered, and pointed out the crux of the problem in a firm tone, which immediately made the third master's face change wildly, beads of sweat rolled down his forehead like pearls with a broken thread, and he didn't say a word for a long time In full words...
