The brochure still talks about the money owed by the Ministry of Finance. It is said that the late emperor handed over this matter to him, but it was interrupted midway due to various reasons. Although the late emperor has passed away, the errand given to him by the late emperor has not
He did not take it back. He also wanted to continue to complete the errands given to him by the late emperor to appease the late emperor's spirit and alleviate his own sins.
The writing is very touching.
The Fourth Master held the folded book and kept tapping the table with his hand. He asked Lao Jiu: "Lao Ba wants to collect the debt owed by the Ministry of Accounts. Do you think it is appropriate?"
To do this thing that would offend someone to death for Long Live Lord?
Master Jiu was chewing his teeth. What do you think of this? Is Lao Ba trying to make a comeback through this incident?
But even if this is an offending errand, there are many who want to help the emperor. No matter how many times, it is not his turn.
He and Lao Ba have been friends since childhood and have been brothers for more than 20 years.
When it comes to one's own understanding of Lao Ba, it can only be said that it is unfathomable and unpredictable. Everyone thinks that the Lao Ba they see is the real one, but there is always a secret behind Lao Ba's back.
Yes! That’s the feeling.
He doesn't tell anyone the truth. You can never figure out what his trump card is. In the past, I thought it was good for Lao Ba to be like this. Who is the person who can achieve things but doesn't have some special skills?
But now, Master Jiu feels that it is not wonderful to save some time for himself.
"To be honest, please don't be angry." Master Jiu was thinking about how to say this.
"Say!" The Fourth Master leaned back, folded his hands and placed them on his stomach. His left hand played with the ring on his right thumb. Anyone who is familiar with the Fourth Master knows that any action like this proves that he is in his heart.
Weighing, thinking, considering the gains and losses in between.
Master Jiu coughed, and his feet felt a little numb as he stood. However, Master Long Live had no intention of sitting down at this moment. He could only stand resigned to his fate. After changing his weight several times, he said: "Lao Ba is a walker."
A person who takes one step and sees three steps... Of course, Long Live Master is a person who takes one step and sees ten or even thirty steps..."
"Stop talking nonsense!" Fourth Master glared. He kept saying flattery all the time. Besides, Lao Jiu's mouth can poison people to death. His flattery is false and has no sincerity at all.
.The more vigorously he shoots, the more I want to kick him. You, the ninth one, don’t have a good mouth to say anything!
Master Jiu chuckled and continued: "According to my brother's understanding of Lao Ba, this painstaking effort to hand over the coupon is just the first step. No one can guess what he has buried behind him. After all, he has done so much
He is now the Eight Wise King..." He shook his head with a wry smile, "It seems that I have people from him around me, but I don't know about it. Then, I really don't know what the other trump cards of Lao Ba are, but he
There must be a trump card. Brother Chen is afraid that if I didn't give him this chance this time, he would cause trouble secretly."
"You mean, you want to use Lao Ba's trump card!" Fourth Master looked up at him and asked.
Master Jiu nodded, "Tell him to move first and find someone smarter to follow him. How does he ask for this debt?"
"Do you think this is better?" Fourth Master asked.
Master Jiu nodded habitually. After nodding, he wanted to slap himself to death. If something went wrong, whose fault would it be?
Just as he was about to speak, he heard Fourth Master say: "Then do as you say."
Master Jiu hurriedly shook his head and said: "Long live the Lord... Fourth brother..." He was so nervous that he stuttered and was speechless for a moment. He waved his hands repeatedly, "Fourth brother, I am just lying. I can't take it seriously."
Su Peisheng felt a little sympathetic when he saw Master Jiu's toes pointing outwards, as if he wanted to run away.
Not everyone can keep up with their master's thinking. Master Jiu, this is really not your fault.
But the fourth master ignored him and only said to Su Peisheng: "Go and announce the eldest brother and the second brother."
Master Jiu looked at Master Fourth in astonishment, "You want to ask the two elder brothers to work with Lao Ba?"
"It will be good for them to see what Lao Ba's methods are." Fourth Master said nonchalantly.
Master Jiu immediately shut up. You don't want your sons to fight, so you pulled them out to practice fighting with uncle, right?
He really wants to give himself a big mouth and tell you to have a bad mouth!
Honghui and Hongyun came not slowly, but also in a hurry. Honghui looked fine, but Hongyun was panting and sweating.
Fourth Master pointed to his tea, and Hong Yun took it and drank it without ceremony. Su Peisheng quickly poured another bowl of warm water, and Hong Yun drank it again, and then he felt that he could breathe again.
"Your ninth uncle said that your eighth uncle should be asked to clear the debts owed to the household department. What do you think?" Fourth Master said, handing over the booklet in his hand.
Hongyun took it, but handed it to Honghui first. Honghui looked at it carefully before handing it to Hongyun.
The two of them looked at Master Jiu in unison, as if to say, Uncle Jiu! You're out of your mind. You managed to get away so easily. Why did you hook up with me again? Why can't you think about it so hard?
The Fourth Master did not explain, but just let Lao Jiu sit uneasily.
"It's better for my son to go." Hong Yun took the lead and said, "It's a critical time for my eldest brother and I can't get away. I asked my eldest brother to take care of me while my son ran errands. Anyway, it's urgent to deal with the affairs of the vassal academy, so I can't say no.
There's no need to rush." One thing can keep quarreling for two months, and he feels that his tongue is getting longer and longer.
Fourth Master turned to look at Honghui, "What did you say?"
Honghui smiled and said: "As long as you can get your money back, no matter what Uncle Eighth plans to do, don't worry about it. Things have priorities."
Hongyun responded.
Fourth Master casually sent Jiu Ye and Hong Yun away first. Then he turned to Honghui and asked, "Are you not done yet?"
Honghui nodded, "Huang Ama, my son has some guesses, I don't know, right?"
"Say it." Fourth Master called Honghui to him, "Sit down and say it."
Honghui sat over and whispered: "It's strange that the Eighth Uncle can get back 80% of the money so confidently. There are not many people who have lost all their money. I'm afraid it won't work if I ask my son to ask for the debt."
I dare say that I will definitely get a few percent back. But Uncle Eighth is basically issuing a military order. But Uncle Eighth is definitely not a person who does not leave himself a way out. Therefore, my son suspects that Uncle Eighth probably has a lot of handles on officials.
.”
Fourth Master's eyebrows twitched, this was consistent with his guess.
If Lao Ba really has the handle or the * * on so many people, then things will be difficult to handle.
It would be really difficult to be stumbling upon him secretly at a critical moment.
After all, it was the once-proud Eighth Ye Party, and it was hard to explain whether it was in the open or in the dark.
Lao Ba probably used this trick a lot when he first pried away Prince Zhi. Otherwise, why would they abandon Prince Zhi and follow your little-known elder brother?
Fourth Master nodded, "I think so too."
Hong Hui said: "So, my son is in the dark, and Hong Yun is in the light. One is bright and the other is dark. I don't believe you can't find these things."
The Fourth Master said 'hmm', "You should tell Hong Yun privately. When it comes to asking for money, it's better to keep one eye on it. The other eye should be on the tricks behind Lao Ba's back."
Honghui responded and stood up to leave.
The fourth master stopped and said, "Hongzhao... please be gentle."
Honghui was stunned for a moment, "Huang Ama, you have never felt so sorry for your son."
"Aren't you grown up?" Fourth Master coughed uncomfortably, "I'm telling you not to practice too hard."
"Understood!" Honghui said in agreement, but said in his heart that he would go back and secretly add more pressure to him. Have you learned how to complain? Or you haven't practiced ruthlessly.
The matter of clearing the arrears of the Ministry of Revenue was officially put on the agenda. Rumors were circulating that it was the Eighth Master who took the initiative to ask for orders to complete the errand given to him by the late emperor. The emperor really could not refuse and agreed.
The news spread among the people, but Master Ba never got the message.
Two days later, a smiling Hongyun arrived.
Master Ba seemed to have no memory of Hong Yun being so angry that he vomited blood. He smiled very kindly and said, "I didn't expect you to be the one who came. Why did I ask you that Hong Hui would come?"
What do you mean? Sow discord?
Do you think it’s partiality that Emperor Amma sends the offending errand to you instead of to your elder brother?
If I didn't know the details, if my eldest brother didn't tell me the truth. After all, I knew that Uncle Eighth was not well-intentioned, but I still felt a little uncomfortable.
He pursed his lips and said with a somewhat shy smile: "Huang Mafa took a liking to the eighth uncle and gave the errand to the eighth uncle. Huang Ama also trusted his nephew, so he handed it over to his nephew."
The eighth master felt sad. When he asked for the debt, Huang Ama actually really wanted to make good use of himself. But at that time, in the old master's heart, he was still in the same position as the fourth child. These things also happened in these days
I slowly savored it after I was idle at home.
He calmed down his expression and looked at Hong Yun casually. To be honest, this Hong Yun didn't look like the fourth son's son, but more like his own son. His smile was just as confusing.
Also, when you speak to make people feel comfortable, your words are really soothing to the whole body. If you want to make people uncomfortable, your words are full of poisonous stings.
Prick.
He has experience in dealing with others, but dealing with Hong Yun, who seems to be another version of himself, is really confusing.
He could only smile and said: "Then our uncle and nephew will do business first?"
Hong Yun smiled like a good baby and said, "Okay! Listen to Uncle Eight."
Then the two of them stared at each other.
The eighth master frowned and said, "Where is the emperor's will?" What if there is no emperor's will in carrying out this errand?
Hong Yun said in astonishment: "Didn't the eighth uncle have the will of the late emperor? Didn't he say that he had to complete the unfinished errands? There is already the will of Huang Ama, so Huang Ama doesn't need to do anything extra, right?"
The perfect smile on Master Ba's face suddenly cracked inch by inch... (. )
