In this regard, Fang Qing naturally agreed with the words of the person in front of him and continued: "What the general said is absolutely true. No matter what, we are all the emperor's ministers and we all serve the emperor."

Qin Chuan locked his eyes on the person in front of him and said directly: "It is very gratifying that Mr. Fang can say this. However, having said that, Mr. Fang is now the Minister of the Ministry of War, one of the six ministers, and is under the jurisdiction of the Prime Minister. Although the person in front of me was said to have been under my father’s command, these things have changed now. I just don’t know if the existence here is still the same as before.”

Fang Qing: "Speaking of which, the Sixth Ministry, like the other five, are all led by the Prime Minister, but the Ministry of War is different. The Ministry of War controls more of the military. I have already come out of the army, but here I have never been separated from all the related matters. Whether it is the Duke of the country or the general, everything involved in the army and the Ministry of War must be clear. Am I still as good as before? That way, I don’t think I need to argue with the general any more.”

Qin Chuan listened to what Fang Qing said. Indeed, the Ministry of War is in charge of the selection and appointment of military attachés and the administration of military personnel, military aircraft, and military orders. The Qin family has huge military power. Fang Qing is responsible for everything involved in the military and related to the Ministry of War. Everything is in place, there is no partiality, let alone being swayed and thinking that you can use power for personal gain.

"That's true." Qin Chuan took a sip of the tea next to him, and after calming down, he continued: "If Mr. Fang can say this, you must know that Mr. Fang is so smart that I invite Mr. Fang to come today. Coming here is not just to reminisce about old times.”

Fang Qing said solemnly: "Yes, the general invited me. I have already thought of the deep meaning in the mansion. In other words, I have also captured some clues from some of the things that happened in the first six parts, but I didn't expect that. The person who came to see me is the General. It seems that the General’s return to Beijing to report on his duties, in addition to reporting on his duties, being here is also part of the General’s plan. In other words, it should be part of the Emperor’s plan. ring."

Qin Chuan saw that Fang Qing pointed out the relationship between this and said bluntly: "Master Fang is quite thorough."

Fang Qing: "It's not thorough, but I know it from the beginning to the end. Especially since the Yang family and the Su family have had troubles one after another, and the candidates for the Minister of Rites and the Minister of Hubu have been replaced one after another, I have already felt that the Prime Minister has control over the six departments. , gradually collapsed, each of the six ministers had their own thoughts. At present, they are still under the jurisdiction of the prime minister, but the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Households have long been separated. As for the remaining four, in private, who is hiding what kind of thoughts, Only you know."

Qin Chuan: "Then, Mr. Fang, what are you thinking?"

"Dingguo Dukefu has been loyal to the Xuanyuan royal family for generations, and has been loyal to the emperors of Tianyang Kingdom. He has never had a rebellious heart. Dingguo Dukefu has huge military power, and the emperors of all generations have never doubted Dingguo Dukefu. Loyalty, even before, our emperor ascended the throne and decreed that the young lady should enter the palace as a concubine. In the eyes of outsiders, the emperor wanted to use this as a bargaining chip to control, but the young lady entered the palace and was named Concubine Chen. The title Chen Concubine , how can we take it lightly? What outsiders see is just an illusion on the surface. Your Majesty, you have never had those thoughts. Duke Dingguo’s Mansion is Duke Dingguo’s Mansion. The weight in the Emperor’s heart is not that of everyone. It can be speculated.”

After finishing his words, Fang Qing did not stop there. He looked at Qin Chuan and said seriously: "As for my thoughts, as the general said, I was born under Duke Dingguo. Even though I have already passed away, He is one of the six ministers, but his footsteps are also following the Duke of Dingguo, and his allegiance will only be to the emperor, not anyone else. For this, as long as we carefully examine the past of the Ministry of War, especially since the emperor ascended the throne, There is nothing wrong with me, and I am not nepotistic or using my power as minister to seek personal gain for myself and the Fang family."

Qin Chuan said: "It's nice to invite you today to reminisce about the past."

Fang Qing said: "Although the general is in the northwest, with the capabilities of Duke Dingguo, I, who was born under Duke Dingguo, have already thoroughly investigated everything in the Ministry of War. Even if the general is not here, Check, the emperor must also know everything."

Qin Chuan: "It's fun to reminisce with Mr. Fang, so please keep it going and keep everything as usual. Mr. Fang must understand what I say."

Fang Qing: "Don't worry, General. I have never changed. This is what Duke Dingguo taught me. I will never let myself go astray just because of a temporary change."

Qin Chuan: "As long as you understand, although the Ministry of War is one of the six ministries and is subordinate to the Prime Minister, the Ministry of War is even more involved in the military. I hope you can stick to your original intention and don't ruin your original intention, let alone let it go. I am blinded by lust for power.”

Fang Qing stood up and bowed respectfully to the person in front of him, "I will definitely keep what the general said in mind and there will never be any deviation."

Qin Chuan: "Very good."

Fang Qing: "The general invites you today. The matter has been confirmed. I won't disturb the general here any more."

Qin Chuan: "Well, come, take Mr. Fang out of the house."

Fang Qingfu bowed again and stopped staying here. Following the attendant, he retreated directly from the main hall and left Duke Dingguo's mansion.

After Fang Qing left, Qin Shu, who was staying in the next cubicle, came out and walked into the main hall.

Qin Chuan saw the person coming and asked, "My little sister heard it from the side. What do you think of what Fang Qing said?"

Qin Shu said quietly: "This man is a smart man, and he can understand the situation. He can do this, which is pretty good. It is undeniable that this man is in charge of the Ministry of War, and he is conscientious and has no problems. However, all of this, You’ll have to wait a little longer.”

Qin Chuan was a little confused, "Wait a minute, what do you mean by this?"

Qin Shu said: "My eldest brother invited him to Duke Dingguo's mansion. To outsiders, this is just a simple reminiscence of the past. After all, Fang Qing was formerly under his father's command. There is nothing wrong with that. But in the eyes of some people, it is always a little different. I estimate that when Fang Qing leaves the Dingguo Palace, some people will be unable to sit still and want to ask Fang Qing to come and find out what these things are."

"Some people?" Qin Chuan thought about it and quickly thought, "Little sister refers to the prime minister."

"Fang Qing is a man who came from our father's service. As far as the eldest brother is concerned, he can be regarded as an old acquaintance. It happens that the eldest brother is in the capital. It is normal to meet and get together for a while. But Fang Qing is now the Minister of the Ministry of War and the king. The people under Sheng, the people under this hand, go to meet the son of their former boss, this current boss, and naturally they have to have a deep understanding of him."

Qin Chuan: "Young sister is right. Do you think Wang Sheng will have an influence on Fang Qing?"

Qin Shu: "Looking at Fang Qing, he is determined and can stick to his duties. There should be no serious problems in this matter, but no matter what, we still need to monitor it more to make a complete conclusion."

Qin Chuan: "After this initial contact, I can confirm that he doesn't have a big problem, right?"

Qin Shu nodded.

Qin Chuan: "It's just right, little sister, you are here today. When you go back later, will you trouble me to tell the emperor?"

Qin Shu: "Brother has given you your orders, so I should follow them."

Qin Chuan smiled and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go see how the lunch is prepared. Let us brothers and sisters have a good meal together."

Qin Shu responded with a smile: "Okay."
