"The emperor is the one who is willing to see the prince!"

Seeing Hongqing's cold eyes swept over, Lang Erheng's heart immediately panicked, and involuntarily shivered, quickly lowered his head, and rushed forward in panic, and respectfully paid a big gift.

"Forgive."

Faced with Lang Erheng's great gift, Hongqing did not shout immediately, but let him kneel there for a while, and then he said lightly.

"Thank you, Prince Long."

Lang Erheng has actually dealt with Hongqing a lot over the years. When the Russian envoys visited the previous Russian mission, he accompanied Hongqing to deal with it. The relationship between them was originally good. When they met, they always laughed at random and did not worry too much. But at this moment, one was that there was a ghost in his heart, and the other was that he was suppressed by Hongqing's huge aura. Lang Erheng felt uncomfortable all over, and the voice of thanking was full of tremors. Even when he got up, he didn't dare to stand up. He bent his body in a rather obedient manner, and he tried to squeeze out a smile. But no matter how hard he tried, his skin was just out of control, and he saw convulsions and no smile.

"Shangshu Lang has been raising him for so long, so his health should be very good?"

Although Hongqing was serious, she didn't make things difficult for Lang Erheng. She just asked indifferently. It was better to say that it was a routine business rather than a greeting, which was obviously a situation where they wanted to separate the distance from each other.

"Your Highness Xie asked, the senior official is already very good. A few days ago, the senior official was ill and failed to perform his duties. I am really ashamed. I am lucky to be cured and I dare not slacken any more. I came to negotiate with the prince on the rules of negotiation. If there is any fault, please let the prince forgive me."

Lang Erheng was not sick at all, but was just pretending to be sick by orders. At this moment, when Hongqing asked about his physical condition, he felt extremely weak in his heart, and hurriedly explained with a smile.

"Well, it's good to be cured. The negotiation and constitution has been submitted to the imperial court. What should be adjusted? It's not too late to wait until the emperor gave a demonstration."

Hongqing had actually guessed Lang Erheng's purpose, and it was just to find fault. What he wanted was to disrupt the established constitution again, and to drag Hong Qing to the Lifan Courtyard. The purpose was only one, that was to buy time for the secret activities on the other side of Heda. Such an intention was too obvious. With Hongqing's IQ, he didn't even have to calculate it, so he could see it at a glance. Of course, Hongqing would not make any comments and just refused Lang Erheng's proposal for consultation quietly.

"This..., haha, I'm not to be hiding the prince. The ministers of the military officials had a lot of different opinions on this charter. Because the officials did not participate in the drafting, they were really difficult to answer questions. They had no choice but to bother the prince."

When Lang Erheng heard Hongqing refused so simply, he was stunned. However, he didn't plan to give up just now. But when he saw his eyes rolling, he was already smirking and whispering.

The Minister of Military Affairs has any objections? Hey, it’s nonsense. Isn’t it just our bastard father who has any idea?

As soon as Lang Erheng said this, Hongqing knew that there was a bad person today, and she couldn't help but sneer in her heart. However, she didn't bring it to her face and just nodded expressionlessly and said, "Since that's the case, Lord Lang just talk about it and listen."

"Ah, yes, then the official will be bold and presumptuous."

Lang Erheng was already ready to "fight with reason" with Hongqing, but he didn't expect that Hongqing would change his tone and agree to his consultation request. He was stunned again. Fortunately, his reaction was quite quick, and he quickly came back to his senses. He gave a quick greeting, and then his face turned a little, and he quickly organized his language, and said with a look of a positive expression: "My Qing national strength is booming, and he is a prestigious overseas territory. Now, there are small foreign countries that have been transformed into a foreign country, which is due to the great reputation of our dynasty. This is a good thing. We should let him meet Your Majesty and perform three bows and nine bows to show the unparalleled power of our Qing Dynasty. I wonder if the prince agrees?"

"Well, this is just one thing, and there is one more thing. Lord Lang should not hide it, and then we will agree."

As soon as Lang Erheng's high-profile words came out, Hong Qing's expression remained unchanged, but there was a hint of sarcasm on the corner of his mouth. It was nothing but because Lang Erheng's proposal was simply a joke. You should know that since the founding of the Qing Dynasty, the Kingdom of Great Britain was not the first Western country to visit. As early as the early years of Kangxi, old colonial countries such as Spain, Portugal, Italy, and the Netherlands had sent envoys to visit one after another. All of these envoys refused to pay homage to the audience.

Because of this, the ceremony was not really possible to meet the emperor. The old man was not sad about these envoys back then. Although he did not agree with the various requests of these envoys, he treated them politely. When it was Emperor Chengde's turn, he actually made nonsense about what was the prescribed order. What if this was not intentional trouble? However, Hongqing did not intend to attack this, and did not rush to give Lang Erheng an explanation. He just said quietly and asked calmly.

"The prince clearly understands that since the Kingdom of Great Britain is intending to engage in friendly trade with our Qing Dynasty, it should have a considerable sincerity. Now, our Qing fleet travels across the ocean. Although it is profitable, the risks are already quite large. There are always losses. If the country intends to set up some trade in our Qing Dynasty, it seems to reduce the risks of our Qing Dynasty's ocean. If the profit is not bad, it seems to be acceptable, it will be better than the long-distance voyage to the body (India) transaction mentioned in the charter. I wonder if the prince has ever considered this comprehensively?"

Lang Erheng came to find fault. Although he saw the unhappiness hidden under Hongqing's calm expression, Lang Erheng did not give up. Instead, he made a fuss and continued to fire in the regulations formulated by Hongqing.

"Well, is there anything else, let's continue."

If the first article mentioned by Lang Erheng can be explained by the power of the country, the second article mentioned is completely unreasonable and unreasonable. However, Hongqing still did not have any explanation, and just asked quietly.

"This..., haha, it made the prince laugh. These two points are fundamental. As for some minor issues later, let's discuss it again."

Lang Erheng was able to climb to the high position of the Minister of the Lifan Academy because Emperor Chengde supported him back then, but he himself was a rare talent in Prince Cheng's mansion back then. He was not a fool. He never told the truth at this time. How could he not know that the situation was not good? Even though he had the tacit approval and support of Emperor Chengde behind him, the hero did not suffer any loss at the moment. If he was beaten by Hongqing as a target, he would probably not dare to support him to the end. With this in mind, Lang Erheng did not dare to be more arrogant. He hurriedly beat him up and stopped, but he did not say anything and left a small tail that could be advanced or retreat.

"I'm afraid it's not good for Lord Lang to do his best to do his national affairs. Since this is the case, I will leave both of these things to you. No need to hurry. There is still more than half a month left before the arrival of the British envoy. Just do it slowly."

Hongqing was not so easy to fool. She didn't bother with Lang Erheng at all, nor did she get angry at him. Instead, she took the airs of the imperial envoy and took the blame on him without hesitation.

"Ah, this..."

Lang Erheng proposed such destructive things to make things difficult for Hongqing, but he didn't expect that Hongqing didn't even explain, so he distributed the problem to his own family. He was stunned and opened his mouth. When he was about to explain, he became panicked and didn't know what to say for a while.

"I have always known Master Lang, and I have been a member of the Minister of the Lifan Academy for many years. I am very familiar with diplomatic affairs, so there is no need to refuse. I believe Lord Lang will perform his duties conscientiously. This matter is decided so I will give you ten days to come up with a corresponding constitution. Let's go."

Hongqing didn't give Lang Erheng a chance to breathe, and did not intend to listen to his explanation. After explaining it in an indescribable tone, he immediately gave the order to expel the guests with a cold expression.

"The prince is clear, he is the official, he is the official..."

When Lang Erheng heard Hongqing's order, he became anxious. It was easy to pick things up. It was not easy to make a charter. It was not easy to make a conclusion. Don't look at how Lang Erheng said it well before, but in fact, he understood his own affairs. He did not have the ability of Hongqing to start a new job. Isn't this his life? He was guilty and dared not respond to his fate. He hurriedly refused.

"see a visitor out!"

Lang Erheng was determined to make excuses, but Hongqing had no intention of giving him a chance at all. Before he could stammer, his face turned solemn and he cried unwillingly.

"twitter!"

Hearing Hongqing's order, Ding Song, who was waiting by the side, did not dare to neglect it. He immediately responded loudly, walked to Lang Erheng in a few big strides, and waved his hand without saying a word, "Mr. Lang, please!"

"Goodbye!"

Seeing Ding Song blocking in front of him so toughly, Lang Erheng was unwilling to accept it, but he did not dare to stay any longer, so he could only say goodbye and leave helplessly.

"People for the country? Hey..."
