After all, Qian Qianyi was a veteran of two dynasties, and he was very good at cultivating his energy. Although he was furious in his heart, he remained calm and calm on the surface: "Oh, take my name and ask them to come over and talk."
As the head of the cabinet, Dangtang took his name to invite a young leader of the Jin Yiwei to come and talk. This was already an extra honor. However, when the housekeeper ran over with his name, he was blocked back again.
He didn't even hand it over. The seventh-rank official at the prime minister's door and the steward of the Qian Mansion were well-known figures in the past, but now they no longer have the same market. Not only were they blocked, but they also had a red face.
A finger print clearly showed that someone had received a crispy finger print.
Qian Qianyi opened the sedan curtain, stared at the fingerprints on the butler's face, and asked in a deep voice: "What did they say?"
The butler covered his face and said: "Jin Yiwei said that he is on official business and will not accept guests. If you really have something important, please..."
The housekeeper hesitated and did not dare to say anything. Qian Qianyi became angry and glared: "What do you think of me?"
"Let you meet their commander in person." The butler co-authored the instigation. He was very depressed by the loud mouth just now, so he took this opportunity to ask the prime minister to go over and kill their prestige to vent his anger.
Under normal circumstances, Qian Qianyi would have gone back directly, posted a message to talk to Wei Zhongxian, and would not have communicated with these low-level people at all. But this time it was different. It was his own business there, and Liu Rushi faced
Qiu Ba is a bunch of unreasonable people. What should they do if they suffer a loss? So Qian Qianyi suppressed his anger and said: "Then I will go and see this gentleman."
Qian Qianyi walked out of the eight-carriage sedan and walked towards Jiangyun Tower with official steps. The group of royal guards had their hands on their waists and their eyes looking at the sky, looking awesome and coaxing. They seemed not to care about the first-rank officials at all.
The big green baize sedan and the various title brands were in my eyes.
When he reached the gate, Qian Qianyi stopped and stroked his beard sideways. The butler jumped out and shouted: "My lord is here, let your general come out and speak."
The Jin Yiwei stepped out of a passage and saw a short man sitting on a bench picking his nose. He was not surprised when he saw Qian Qianyi's big red robe. He wiped his fingers on his body, stood up and walked over in a random manner.
He cupped his hands and said, "The commander of the Jinyi Guards sent Wei Liangqing to pay homage to Master Qian."
It was said that he was paying homage, but in fact he had no intention of kneeling down and kowtowing. No wonder he was domineering. Wei Liangqing was no ordinary person. He was the nephew of Wei Zhongxian, the eunuch in charge of the ceremonial department and the admiral of the Imperial Secret Service. He had also been adopted by Wei Eunuch.
Son, he is only about 20 years old. He was originally a country gangster who only knew a little boxing and stick skills, so he was promoted by Wei Zhongxian to become the top leader of Jinyiwei. Xu Sanpi, the veteran of Jinyiwei with great experience and hard work, could only serve as Wei Liangqing.
Just his deputy.
Qian Qianyi snorted coldly and said, "Commander of the Imperial Guards, why don't you kneel down when you see me?"
Wei Liangqing smiled broadly, took out a gold medal from his arms, shook it and said, "Sir Qian, I am not only the commander of the Jinyi Guards, but also serve as the errand of Miss Qin. You know, Miss Qin, that is the supervisor."
The organization of hundreds of officials, in other words, except for the emperor and Eunuch Wei, I don’t have to kneel when I see anyone, but I have the power to detain you for twelve hours. This is the order issued by the emperor the day before yesterday, Lord Qian will not
I don’t know.” After saying that, he proudly put his waist badge back into his arms and said with a hint of embarrassment, “I am currently on official duty. May I ask, Sir Qian, what advice do you have?”
Qian Qianyi is so angry. What Wei Liangqing said is indeed true. Now the political system of the Ming Dynasty has undergone serious regression. The emperor's private secret service, the Qin Secret Service, has grown to an unprecedented level. It has merged the East Factory, the South Factory, and the Jinyiwei, and is responsible for
It has great power and can arbitrarily arrest, interrogate and even deal with officials of any level, even those from clans such as princes and princes. The original three-law division system of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Criminal Department, and Dali Temple has been eliminated. Now,
The world is the world of Qin Mi Si.
Qian Qianyi said: "Jiangyun Tower is my villa. Mr. Wei must have an explanation for searching my house."
Wei Liangqing said: "Of course, I was ordered by the emperor to arrest Dong Xiaowan, a member of the traitor Liu Ziguang's family. It is an unforgivable crime to harbor imperial criminals. Master Qian must have nothing to do with this matter, right?"
Looking at Wei Liangqing's sinister smile, Qian Qianyi's heart sank and he thought to himself: How could I have forgotten this matter? Liu Ziguang's concubine Dong Xiaowan was Liu Rushi's friend. When the incident happened, the capital was in chaos and no one paid attention.
When all was said and done about Liu Ziguang's concubine, some people thought of Dong Xiaowan and began a massive search, but no trace was found. In the world, Liu Rushi was probably the only one suspected of harboring an imperial criminal.
, it is not unreasonable for Jin Yiwei to come to search.
Even so, Qian Qianyi could not be at a disadvantage. He said seriously: "What imperial order? I just came out of the palace and did not hear His Majesty mention this matter. What crime should you face if you falsely convey the imperial edict?"
Wei Liangqing took out Miss Qin's waist badge from his pocket, his eyes were as wide as copper bells, he pointed at the four small characters on the waist badge and said to Qian Qianyi: "This is the imperial order, Sir Qian, please look carefully."
Qian Qianyi took a closer look and saw that it was "as if I were here in person"
Four words, I didn’t expect that the Emperor’s favor for the Imperial Secret Service would reach such an incredible level. As long as they hold the waist card, they can walk around the capital. Theoretically, even if they burn down Jiangyun Tower with a fire, it is legal.
Yes, why, if I were to come in person, it would be like the emperor ordered it to be burned.
Qian Qianyi was speechless for a moment, and then he said harshly: "Okay, Mr. Wei, please search as you like. If you find me, I will be yours to hold for questioning. If you can't find it, humph, you won't miss my friendship with Eunuch Wei."
You know."
Wei Liangqing is not afraid of mentioning others, but he still has to be wary of Wei Zhongxian. In fact, Jin Yiwei has already launched a search in Jiangyun Tower, and the search is half done. There are no clues yet. I heard that Liu Rushi is very rampant.
He left the bedroom and the bathroom and toilet areas open for them to search, with a look of indifference. This made Wei Liangqing somewhat lacking in confidence. Coupled with Qian Qianyi's current attitude, it made him even more confused.
Good thing Dong Xiaowan is really not here. The search for Jiangyun Tower was done without Eunuch Wei's consent. Although Mr. Qian Ge was sidelined, his status is still there, and Eunuch Wei has to give him some face. It would not look good if there was a real stalemate.
.But it would be a bit of a loss to withdraw the troops when the search was halfway done.
While Wei Liangqing was hesitating, he suddenly saw Xu Sanpi coming with a group of people. From a distance, he shouted: "Master Wei, something happened."
When he came closer, Xu Sanpi got off his horse and said a few words in Wei Liangqing's ear. Wei Liangqing's face changed greatly: "There is such a thing! I will go immediately. I will take care of the things here." After that, he jumped.
Get on Xu Sanpi's war horse and ride away, even if you leave this mess to Xu Sanpi.
Xu Sanpi was an old man from Jinyiwei. Although he was now following Wei Zhongxian, he was still nostalgic. He politely greeted Qian Qianyi and then ordered the team to close down and stop searching.
Qian Qianyi was still very satisfied with Xu Sanpi's courtesy. He asked kindly: "Master Xu, what happened in the capital that made Commander Wei so panic?"
Xu Sanpi said: "I would like to inform Mr. Qian that the imperial prison of the Imperial Secret Service was bombed. The imperial prisoner Zhong Shouyong escaped. Mr. Wei was alarmed. The whole city is under martial law and the fugitives are being hunted. Mr. Qian, please lock him up."
It's a good family, I still have official duties, so I'll take my leave." After saying that, he left with the Jinyi guards who had withdrawn from Jiangyun Tower.
Qian Qianyi then entered Jiangyun Building and saw that this gorgeous and exquisite small building had been turned into a mess by the Jinyi guards. All the cupboard doors were wide open, clothes and fabrics were scattered on the ground, and even the walls were smashed open.
; Is there a dark room inside? Liu Rushi and two maids were sitting in the hall drinking tea as if nothing had happened.
Seeing the master coming over, Liu Rushi's pretended strength finally couldn't hold on any longer. She shed a few tears, threw herself into Master Qian's warm arms and cried, "Master, you are finally here."
Qian Qianyi coaxed her with gentle words for a while, and then asked: "If so, have you taken Dong Xiaowan in?"
Liu Rushi burst into tears and smiled: "Master, what do you say?"
Qian Qianyi looked at Jiangyun Tower, which was messed up by Jin Yiwei, shook his head and said, "I don't know."
Liu Rushi smiled and said: "It's far away in the horizon, but it's so close in front of you."
A maid in the back wiped her face with a handkerchief and bowed to Qian Qianyi Yingying: "Dong Xiaowan, a civilian woman, comes to see Mr. Qian."
It turns out that the person being hunted was standing in front of the Jin Yiwei, but they couldn't recognize him. This shows that Liu Ru is a master of disguise. Of course, these Jin Yiwei are all newcomers, and few of them know Dong Xiaowan. If Xu Sandai is
If the team comes to search, they may not be so lucky.
Qian Qianyi hurriedly helped him. He was no stranger to Dong Xiaowan. Back then, we often discussed poetry and poetry together. If it weren't for the closer relationship with Liu Rushi, he might have married Dong Xiaowan. Mr. Qian
Mr. Qian was still joking at this moment: "Mr. Dong is not a citizen's wife, you are the wife of the Duke of the country."
Dong Xiaowan said: "My master has been deprived of his title and has been exiled overseas. Where can I find the Duke's wife?"
Qian Qianyi said: "Although the title of Lord Zhenguo has been taken away, isn't there still a Duke Protector who lives in Song Dynasty? This guy has so many titles that I can't even figure out how many titles he still has. Alas,
Let’s not talk about this anymore. The capital is in danger now, so it’s better to move quickly.”
After some more dressing up, Dong Xiaowan disguised himself as a servant, followed Qian Qianyi's sedan out of Jiangyun Tower, and walked towards the nearest city gate. As soon as he walked out of Jiangyun Tower, a group of Jinyi guards surrounded him, and the leader was...
It was Xu Sanpi. He sneered and said to Qian Qianyi in the sedan chair: "What kind of crime should you be guilty of harboring an imperial prisoner?"
