Qian Ning admitted that he used a few live chickens to lure the hungry black bear to dig up the ground and escape. The black bear, which had been hungry for several days, saw the food hanging close to the fence, so how could it not try its best to get the food?
What seemed like an accidental escape was actually the result of Qian Ning's careful arrangements.
Qian Ning's explanation is that he has been suppressed in the Han general camp for many years, and he had no chance of martial arts. The former Han general commander Shi Wenyi was mean and jealous of talents. He had made many meritorious deeds, but he never had any chance.
Not appreciated by him.
Qian Ning was from Yunnan. His family was poor when he was young. He was sold to the Yunnan garrison eunuch Qian Neng as a slave. Because he was smart and clever, Qian Neng liked him, so he changed his surname to Qian. The Yunnan garrison eunuch Qian Neng guarded Yunnan for twelve years.
, was greedy and fierce, and raised a group of fierce domestic slaves, from which Qian Ning also learned martial arts. Especially archery, he could shoot from left to right and pierce the Yangtze with a hundred steps.
Later, Qian Neng was impeached and demoted to the position of Nanjing garrison eunuch, and his slaves were scattered. Qian Ning followed him all the time. Qian Neng saw his loyalty, so he used his connections to send Qian Ning to the Han Dynasty General's Camp in the capital as a bodyguard. He was also regarded as a bodyguard.
It gave Qian Ning a step up.
It's a pity that Qian Ning has been suppressed and has no chance to come forward. But Qian Ning never gives up and actively looks for opportunities.
This time, he worked hard to come up with this method, because he wanted to step forward at the critical moment, perform a show of being a loyal savior, and express himself in front of the emperor. For this reason, he made preparations in advance and wore a mountain coat that day.
Zijia, in order to prevent accidents, also lined the inside with iron sheets for protection. He was afraid that it would be self-defeating and he would get caught in it.
Use a live chicken to lure the black bear out of the fence. In such a large forest, as soon as the emperor and his party arrive there, the black bear will definitely appear. If you can escort it first and fight with the black bear, you can impress the emperor.
This is a crazy plan, and Qian Ning certainly knows that doing so may have serious consequences. The black bear may hurt the emperor or others, and he may even die under the black bear's claws. However, he does not care about this.
If he wants to get ahead, he can only do it through these unconventional means. He doesn't want to spend his whole life being a little bodyguard who is suppressed by others.
His desire for power and status had already been deeply imprinted on his heart when he was in Qian Neng's house. When Qian Neng was unlucky, the reason why he didn't leave like the others was because he knew he had no other way.
But he could go. He knew that although Qian Neng was unlucky, he still had some connections. So he showed his loyalty and told Qian Neng that if he became successful in the future, he would avenge Qian Neng's impeachment and suppression.
Qian Neng gave him a reward, and part of his purpose of sending Qian Ning to the Han Dynasty General's Camp was to hope that Qian Ning could flourish. As an eunuch, he had great limitations, and he also hoped to have a master around him.
A powerful figure. Qian Ning is worthy of his expectations, both for his loyalty and ability.
General Jinyiwei Han was the emperor's personal bodyguard, so his chances were much greater than others. Although he spent a lot of money and a lot of effort, he still tried his best to fight for Qian Ning's chance to rise to prominence.
From then on, Qian Ning understood a truth: some things must be fought for by oneself, and it is better to create opportunities than to wait for them.
It's a pity that Qian Neng's ability only ends here. Qian Ning hopes that Qian Neng can give him more help, but Qian Neng has already lost power and cannot help him much. Qian Neng always advises him to wait for opportunities and does not allow him to be too
It was too radical. Qian Ning could only endure it for the time being.
Qian Neng passed away last year, and Qian Ning lost both his backer and any ties. So he actively began to plan for promotion. He wanted to flatter Shi Wenyi, Liu Jin and others, but unfortunately, he just
He was just an ordinary guard. The threshold for those people was too high, and he couldn't get in even if he tried to sell things. After thinking about it for a while, he took the risk and devised this drama of heroic guardianship.
This was a big gamble. If it failed, he might die under a bear's paw. It might even cause casualties to the emperor and others. But if it succeeded, he knew that with the character of the current emperor, he would definitely appreciate him very much.
Today's emperor is a casual person, and rewards and punishments all depend on his likes and dislikes. As long as he is willing, he can reach heaven in one step.
Speaking of which, there is a small episode. Originally, he had no part in this hunting. Zhou Yi, a small flag officer he deliberately made friends with in the camp, was one of the accompanying guards who participated in this hunting operation. Yesterday
In the evening, Qian Ning invited Zhou Yi to drink two drinks and secretly gave Zhou Yi some laxatives. Zhou Yi had diarrhea all night and couldn't get up this morning, so Qian Ning offered to be his guard to avoid trouble from the superiors.
.This is how I got this opportunity.
In fact, there were some accidents that day. Qian Ning did not expect that the bear was so ferocious, and he almost died under the bear's claws. The lined armor was not vulnerable at all. Fortunately, he did not give up his usual skills.
He barely managed to save his life. Moreover, when the bear ran out, it was too sudden. Even though he had been watching all directions, he still didn't expect that the bear almost killed the emperor.
The biggest surprise was that after he pretended to be comatose and was taken away for treatment, he learned what Lord Zhang had done at the scene. That Lord Zhang collected his armor and asked another guard to lead him to the bear pen.
After spinning around for a few times, Qian Ning suddenly became nervous when he heard this.
Originally, he would never come to Zhang Yanling to express his gratitude. Zhang Yanling is now an untouchable person. If he gets close to him, he will offend Liu Jin and Shi Wenyi, which is extremely detrimental to him. He pretended to be unconscious not only to sensationalize the situation, but also to avoid facing him.
These troubles. But after learning what Mr. Zhang had done, he thought about it and decided to come and find out. He was really worried because he didn't want to risk everything he had gained and risk his life.
.
This was the reason why he came to see Zhang Yanling today. Of course, there were some words that he would not say clearly even now.
Zhang Yanling listened quietly to Qian Ning's tearful cry about how he was suppressed and how it was difficult to gain a foothold. How he had to resort to opportunistic ways to get ahead, so he got confused and came up with such a savior idea. He swore that he
I have no intention of murdering the emperor, I just want to have a chance.
Qian Ning also said that he actually regretted it that day and even tried to dissuade Liu Jin from letting the emperor go hunting in areas where wild beasts were. However, Liu Jin scolded him and he did not dare to say anything more. He also said that he actually said
He was already ready to confess his guilt for the emperor's safety, but the bear appeared too suddenly and he didn't have time to do so.
Except for the reason Qian Ning said that he wanted to get ahead through meritorious service, Zhang Yanling didn't believe a word of anything else he said.
The reason why Zhang Yanling thought of checking Qian Ning's armor that day was not because he wanted to see how sharp the bear's claws were or to watch the fun. But when he heard the name Qian Ning, I immediately felt that this matter would not be that simple.
Qian Ning may have been an unknown person before that day, but in Zhang Yanling's ears, the name Qian Ning was like thunder. In the real history known to Zhang Yanling as a time traveler, Qian Ning was a famous figure in the Zhengde Dynasty. figure.
In real history, this person will be the other biggest sycophant after Liu Jin's downfall. This person is cunning in nature, first attached to Liu Jin, and then colluded with King Ning, and would do anything for power.
Although Zhang Yanling is now not completely sure whether the era he lives in will evolve according to the real historical process, the moment he heard Qian Ning's name, he still became more vigilant. That's why he became suspicious.
As a result, there was really something fishy about all this. Qian Ning was hit by a gun.
Zhang Yanling thought at that time whether to nip the scourge of the future Ming Dynasty in the cradle. He only needed to report the armor and the situation found by the bear fence to Zhu Houzhao, and Qian Ning would die without a burial place, and this would be completely eliminated. Disaster. But after some weighing, Zhang Yanling gave up this idea.
Liu Jin is the only one in power, and there is no power to restrain him in the inner court. Only Liu Jin can speak around the emperor, and he can do whatever he wants. Although Qian Ning is a cancer in the future, if you can control this person, you can use him to restrain Liu Jin around the emperor. , and being able to obtain first-hand real information from the inner court, the advantages may outweigh the disadvantages.
If Qian Ning can be controlled and used for his own use, he will be a nail in the inner court, and his value is self-evident. Zhang Yong is certainly qualified, but Zhang Yong is too upright, and his relationship with Liu Jin has broken down and has been Liu Jin and others were isolated. He was no longer able to participate in many things and had been marginalized. His status in front of the emperor was getting lower and lower, and he could no longer contain Liu Jin. Zhang Yanling was thinking about how to solve this problem. At this moment, Qian Ning took the risk Come out, isn't it just the right candidate?
Now, Qian Ning has been appointed as the general manager of the Leopard Room, that is, someone who can be by the emperor's side day and night, and participate in the discussion of any confidential matters. Isn't this status more suitable?
The only thing to worry about is that this person is obviously unscrupulous in his actions. He dares to gamble with the emperor's life for the sake of superiority. With such no bottom line, it may be difficult to control him, and he may even suffer backlash. But Zhang Yanling must consider Priorities and priorities. Liu Jin is currently the most dangerous enemy. After the split, Liu Jin's behavior is difficult to predict. It is obviously a wiser choice to use Qian Ning to contain Liu Jin and let the two tigers in the inner court fight. If Qian Ning and Liu Jin join forces, the harm will be even greater.
As for whether Qian Ning would backfire on him in the future, whether he would lose control, whether he would feed a tiger into trouble, and whether he would drink poison to quench his thirst at the moment, Zhang Yanling actually couldn't think too much about it.
At the very least, he could take advantage of Qian Ning and keep his current behavior within control, so that he would not dare to act rashly.
Perhaps when the time comes, I will give him a thunderous blow without hesitation, expose his crimes, and eradicate him. Compared to Liu Jin at the moment, Qian Ning is obviously much more controllable at the moment.
Qian Ning left the Jianchang Marquis Mansion with a complicated mood. He did not ask for the armor back. Zhang Marquis said that he had thrown away the armor. Of course Qian Ning did not believe it. However, Zhang Marquis said that he had already thrown away the armor.
It will be kept secret and will never be told to anyone. Mr. Zhang did not put forward any requirements or conditions. He just told Qian Ning to do a good job and be loyal to the emperor.
But Qian Ning knew that from now on, he would probably have to obey Zhang Yanling's words. Although this is not a good result, compared with the public evidence, this is the best result that Qian Ning thinks. Before coming here
He made the best and worst plans, and now, the result is neither good nor bad, at least he can still live.
