Chapter seven hundred and thirty first marriage
Seeing Qian Yiai trying to kill herself, Zhao Mengguan stood up and slowly prepared to move to the door, and said perfunctorily: "Mr. Qian, don't do this. Without the emperor's imperial edict, you must not be allowed to go to the imperial prison. No means you can use it!"
Zhao Mengguan planned to move to the door and let his subordinates come in. Now the only one in the room is the two of them, and it is really hard to explain what happened.
But who is Qian Yiai? When he saw Zhao Meng locked up, he knew what he was planning.
"Hehe, Lord Zhao, do you want to go out to find a personal certificate? You are wrong. The matter of letting me enter the Jinyiwei yamen is a foregone conclusion. Do you think the ministers in the court will believe the testimony of your Jinyiwei?"
Zhao Mengguan thought about it, it was right. The reputation of the Jinyiwei has never been good. Those ministers seized this opportunity and didn't mess with him to death? But he was still unwilling to agree to this sinister guy.
"Mr. Qian is very calculating, but don't forget that there is still a prince. His Highness will definitely believe me!"
"Mr. Zhao, you are so proud of yourself. What do you think you are? You are just a dog of the royal family. Ji Gang, the commander of the Yongle Dynasty, was better than you? Don't you know what the end was? Do you think the prince can trust you?"
Zhao Mengguan felt as if he was so sad when he heard Qian Yiai say this. Although Zhao Mengguan did not study, Zhao Mengguan still knew what Ji Gang, the senior of the Jinyiwei, ended up with Ji Gang. He thought that he was fighting to the death to do something for the prince, and he might end up with Ji Gang, and he felt very depressed immediately.
Qian Yiai was in this mood yesterday in Ma Mingyuan. Now, seeing Zhao Mengguan also has a mentality of being sympathetic in his heart.
Qian Yiai stepped forward and patted Zhao Mengguan on the shoulder and said, "Old Zhao, not all the commanders of the Jinyiwei have no good ending, but there are still a few who have a good ending!"
When Zhao Mengguan heard Qian Yiai say this, he quickly looked up and asked, "Mr. Qian, do you have any good ideas? Please ask Lord. Qian to save Zhao!"
"This is simple. The commanders who had a good death before were either the emperor's confidants or the nobles. Do Lord Zhao have these two points?"
Zhao Mengguan thought about it and thought that his own line was not enough. He was not from Huguang. His ancestors were at most hundreds of families in his family, and even nobles were not reliable.
"Mr. Qian, Zhao is not reliable, what should I do?"
Qian Yiai thought deeply: "This is troublesome, but there is another thing, that is, you have close friends with the ministers of the current dynasty, so that you can also keep your safety!"
Zhao Meng cursed in his heart, saying that you said something like farts. How could you have any interaction with the ministers in the court? Now I am just a co-education, and it is not enough at all!
"Mr. Qian, no minister in the court can take a fancy to Zhao. Please tell me the way!" Regarding his own wealth and life, Zhao Meng was locked up and knelt in front of Qian Yiai and begged hard.
"Mr. Zhao, you should look at it longer-term. The current cabinet master is not reliable. What about the future? For example, if there is hope for the prince to enter the cabinet?"
Zhao Mengguan just now lost his composure because of his own wealth and life. Now, when he heard Qian Yiai say this, he immediately understood. You kid originally planned to conquer me, Lao Zhao!
After thinking it through, Zhao Mengguan jumped up and pointed at Qian Yiai and scolded: "Qian Yiai, why are you so vicious at a young age? If you want Lao Zhao to work hard, you say, why are you trapped? Lao Zhao doesn't want to get involved in the destruction between you and Xia Wanchun!"
As a member of the Prince's Group, Zhao Mengguan naturally knew that Qian Yiai and Xia Wanchun were not in dealing with each other. Their temperament was completely incompatible and their power was the same.
Xia Wanchun couldn't stand anything illegal and was extremely upright. But Qian Yiai was different. He was cruel and vicious, and he was Ma Mingyuan's second.
Qian Yiai saw Zhao Mengguan reacting, smiled and put the teapot back in the original place, sat on the chair again and said, "Mr. Zhao is still a little smart. Since you already know, Xia Wanchun and I, please choose one!"
Zhao Mengguan knew that political struggles have always been to the death, and he, a martial artist, shouldn't have joined in, but he had already got on the boat and couldn't get off. How to get off and how to get off is not something he could decide.
Zhao Mengguan had also considered taking the team before. Xia Wanchun himself was a clear stream and never looked at the dirty Jinyiwei like them. Moreover, Xia Wanchun, as the chief clerk of the prince, had a good relationship with the prince's eldest companion, the prince's grandfather Shuangxi. Even if he could rely on it, he would definitely be bound by the eunuch Shuangxi. This was really not what Zhao Mengguan wanted.
On the other hand, Qian Yiai, the other person, was also from the Donglin Party and had a family background that was even stronger than Xia Wanchun. The key is that Qian Yiai is cruel and poisonous. According to Zhao Mengguan's vulgar world view, only those who are cruel and ruthless can laugh to the end in this world.
Thinking of this, Zhao Mengguan decided to defect to Qian Yiai, but Qian Yiai caused too much psychological impact on Zhao Mengguan, Zhao Mengguan was worried that it would be better to take an insurance measure.
"Mr. Qian, it's okay to want Lao Zhao to surrender, but Mr. Qian, you are too shady. Lao Zhao is not at ease with you. You have to agree to Lao Zhao's condition!"
Qian Yiai was overjoyed when he heard Zhao Mengguan's promise. He and Xia Wanchun were in power, and the prince ascended the throne in the future would inevitably fight for power. Xia Wanchun and his son made a lot of efforts to resist the Qing Dynasty, especially Xia Wanchun, who knew that they would die, could still reprimand the Qing Governor Hong Chengchou, which made Xia Wanchun very famous in the scholars.
On the other hand, Qian Yiai, his father Qian Qianyi, was a surrender faction, and his sister was a concubine. Although this status as a relative of the foreign country is usually a big advantage, it is a burden in the officialdom. Therefore, Qian Yiai worked hard in Shangyuan County for four years, but no one in the court spoke for him.
In the past, Qian Qianyi was sheltering from the wind and rain, and Qian Yiai didn't realize anything, but for more than a month after Qian Qianyi retired, Qian Yiai felt the change in the attitude of the officials towards him. Now it is no longer the year of fighting alone. There are many parties in the court, and he also wants to plan to form his own team earlier in the future. Today, conquering Zhao Mengguan is the first and most important step.
Zhao Mengguan was in charge of the Nanzhen Fushi, and the prince also needed Zhao Mengguan's information, so in the future, Zhao Mengguan was likely to be the commander of the Jinyiwei, but at that time, he wanted to conquer Zhao Mengguan, which was a high price.
"Haha, okay! Lord Zhao really lives up to expectations. Follow Qian in the future, he will definitely be able to be a lord! Tell me, what are your conditions? As long as Qian can do it, I will definitely agree to you!"
"The conditions are very simple. Although Lao Zhao, I am not very good, but I have a daughter who is fifteen years old this year. She can't be said to be a lady from a family, but she is definitely enough. I want to devote her to Lord Qian as a concubine who warms the bed. I wonder if Lord Qian is willing?"
Zhao Mengguan knew that Qian Yi was cruel and ruthless. Now he looked at his sweet brother and sister, because he wanted to ask for himself. If his value in the future is gone, he would not be sure how this kid would deal with him, so he would be safe to get married.
Qian Yiai didn't expect Zhao Mengguan to make this condition. Qian Yiai had a very good relationship with his wife Chen. Three years ago, Chen gave birth to a son for him. If he took a concubine, I would be sorry for Chen.
Qian Yiai said: "Mr. Zhao, do you know that Qian does not take a concubine. Can you change the conditions?"
Qian Yiai's words angered Zhao Mengguan: "Qian Yiai, you are here to ask for the alliance today. Although Lao Zhao's daughter is not a wealthy family, she is considered as if she doesn't leave the door. How can my daughter get married if you say that?"
Qian Yiai's postponement of this marriage is really a slap in the face. Zhao Mengguan, as a fourth-rank Jinyiwei Tongzhi, wanted to find a son-in-law. Although he couldn't find a son-in-law like Qian Yiai, there were still many poor scholars who wanted to be son-in-laws.
Qian Yiai also knew that it was a little too much just now and said, "Mr. Zhao, don't be angry with Qian..."
But before Qian Yiai finished speaking, Zhao Mengguan said: "Qian Yiai, if you want to join Lao Zhao today, you must take Lao Zhao's daughter as your concubine!"
"Mr. Zhao, why do you insist on doing this?"
Zhao Mengguan sneered: "Hmph, it's just that Lao Zhao is not at ease with you. Lao Zhao is a rough man, but he also knows that you literati have no credibility, so my daughter is a guarantee, and it will be useless in the future. You kid cannot deal with Lao Zhao!"
Qian Yiai smiled bitterly when she heard Zhao Mengguan say this, but it was said that marriage was like this, but that refers to a wife. What is the binding force of your daughter coming to be a concubine? What's more, not to mention a concubine, it's just a wife, it's not reliable at a critical moment. Have you ever heard of the saying that husband and wife are the same birds in the same forest, and they fly away when the disaster strikes?
Qian Yiai saw Zhao Mengguan like this, and she was very interested in jumping off the building if she didn't want his daughter. Qian Yiai had no choice but to smile bitterly: "Okay, then Qian will welcome Miss Zhao!"
Zhao Mengguan was overjoyed when he heard Qian Yiai say this. What is Qian Yiai's identity? The son of Donglin boss Qian Qianyi and the prince's confidant will definitely be able to enter the cabinet in the future. If his daughter can marry such a person, that is really a blessing from the previous life.
Zhao Mengguan laughed: "Okay! Boy, I will send my daughter to your house tonight!"
Qian Yiai smiled bitterly and said, "Okay, the son-in-law is waiting at home!"
In ancient times, taking concubines was not a relative at all. According to etiquette, Zhao Mengguan was not considered Qian Yiai's father-in-law. Qian Yiai just called himself a son-in-law, which made Zhao Mengguan ecstatic.
Zhao Mengguan opened the door and held Qian Yiai's hand and said to his subordinates outside: "Brothers, this is my son-in-law. Are you guys still here to greet him?"
The officials outside originally thought that the two were going to fight, but they didn't know that in a blink of an eye, the second uncle became a good son-in-law, and everyone was stunned for a moment.
When Zhao Mengguan saw that his subordinates did not respond, he was a little unhappy and cursed: "What are you guys doing? You are all stupid!"
Only then did the men react and went forward to pay tribute according to the positions of all officials, and they flattered for a moment.
