Chapter 406: Conflict
Qian Mao got Jia Ke's reply, and trotted all the way to the door of the Marquis of Wuyang's mansion.
At this time, King Beijing had been waiting in the sedan chair for a long time. But he still didn't see the Marquis of Wuyang's mansion, and opened the middle door to greet him.
Not only him, but also his subordinates began to make noise. After all, as the king of Beijing, in terms of title alone, Jia Ke is not ranked in front of Shui Rong. When he saw Shui Rong, he had to give him a thousand gifts.
In addition, a few days ago, King Beijing suffered a loss in the Xiao Cavalry Camp, and those guards under him were completely killed by Luo Cen.
King Beijing still can't say anything about this, after all, he first ordered to control Luo Cen, which is a big taboo.
Although King Beijing didn't say anything, these guards under him had already held their breath, after all, they were brothers who had worked hard with him for many years, and they were all gone to the barracks this time, and no one would feel good on them. So these guards thought that when they came to the Wuyang Marquis Mansion today, they must give Jia Ke some color.
When he was dissolved and anxious, the side door of the Marquis of Wuyang Mansion opened a crack, and the butler who had just spoken to him walked out of it.
Qian Mao hurriedly came to the sedan chair of King Beijing and gave him a thousand salutes, "The little one is saying goodbye to the prince." ”
"What the hell is going on with your family? Why don't you come out to greet it. "The breath of the water is a little bad, but I have been hanging outside the house for so long, and I don't have a good temper when I think about it.
Moreover, King Beijing is losing his temper now, and he also wants to vent the anger he received in the Xiaoqi camp this morning.
It's just that King Beijing forgot who Jia Ke was and what place this was.
Qian Mao also heard Shui Rong's anger, but he still said with a smile: "Please also ask the prince to atone for his sins, just now the little one was negligent and forgot to ask the prince one thing, this matter is asked clearly, and the small one is easy to arrange." ”
King Beijing's water dissolved in the sedan chair, and his face immediately sank, and he remembered the treatment he had received in the Xiao Riding Camp in the morning. Could it be that Jia Ke is going to embarrass him again now?
"If you have anything to ask, just say it." In the end, he endured this breath, after all, he knew that if he wanted to take office, he had to get Jia Ke to spit out.
Qian Mao's face was full of smiles, bowing his body, and he was very respectful, "Lord Wang, I forgot to ask just now whether you came to visit as the King of Beijing, or as the supervisor of the Xiaocai Battalion. ”
King Shui Rong of Beijing couldn't hold back anymore when he heard this, and walked out directly to open the sedan curtain.
Shui Rong asked Qian Mao with a gloomy face, "What do you say about the identity of King Beijing?" What did the overseers of the cavalry battalion say? ”
Qian Mao also straightened his waist at this time, and replied loudly: "If the prince comes to visit as the king of Beijing. Naturally, my lord will open the middle door wide and come to greet you in court clothes. If you are coming to see you as the overseer of the cavalry battalion, you can only enter through the side door and wait at the door of the study to see when our master will have the kung fu to receive you. ”
After Qian Mao said this, he immediately raised his toes and let out all the anger he had just sent in front of King Beijing.
King Beijing was already so angry that he couldn't hold back a few guards at this time, and they were already holding their breath, thinking about how to get some color back for their dead brother. Now being treated slowly like this at the gate of the Marquis of Wuyang's Mansion is unbearable for no one.
So two of them rushed over, grabbed Qian Mao's clothes and beat him violently.
The few pro-soldiers standing guard at the gate of the Marquis of Wuyang's mansion, where can they be allowed to spread wild at the gate of the mansion. So they also rushed over and snatched the money from the hands of the two guards.
The guards of the King of Beijing also rushed up when they saw these personal soldiers. The two sides were at the gate of the Wuyang Marquis's Mansion, and they immediately fought with each other, and they were about to have a fight.
At this time, it was still King Shui Rong of Beijing who calmed down, knowing that if there was a fight at the gate of the Marquis of Wuyang at this time, then he would be even more sad in the Xiao Cavalry Camp in the future, and with Jia Ke's power, he would be able to knock him into the dust immediately.
So he scolded King Beijing to his guards: "Stop, what is this place? Where are you scattering wild? Don't let me get out of the way yet. ”
The guards of the King of Beijing were only seven dissatisfied and eight retreated to the side angrily, although they retreated to the side, but they were all angry and glared angrily at the personal soldiers of the Marquis of Wuyang.
Qian Mao was so frightened that he trembled at this time, he didn't expect that the guards of the King of Beijing would make a move if they didn't agree with each other.
King Beijing hurriedly took a few steps forward to support Qian Mao, and said warmly: "Steward Qian, please also ask you to do a lot of Haihan." Xiao Wang's guards are all rough people, and they collided with you for a while, so Xiao Wang will take them here to compensate you. ”
Qian Mao saw that King Beijing compensated him, and he was also frightened by King Beijing's guards just now, and now he didn't dare to embarrass King Beijing anymore, so he hurriedly returned the salute and said, "Where do you dare to be the prince's gift?" Isn't this a torment for the villain? ”
The soldiers behind Qian Mao saw King Beijing apologize, and then retreated to the door.
King Beijing said to Qian Mao gently: "Steward Qian, Xiao Wang, I came to visit Master Jia this time, and I came as the supervisor of the Xiaocai Battalion. This wants to see Shangguan, so naturally you can't go through the door. It is also appropriate to enter through the side door. ”
Qian Mao breathed a sigh of relief, if King Beijing was unreasonable and had to go to the main gate, I am afraid it would be another conflict.
This money trade is timid, although he is cautious in doing things, and he has not made any mistakes, but he is really weak in social contacts, and he has not fully adapted to Jia Ke's power until now, and he is still afraid of the big man of King Beijing. If it was Liu Yu who greeted him at this time, he would have beaten these guards of the King of Beijing and locked them up in the yamen of the infantry commander.
So Qian Mao also said respectfully to King Beijing: "It turns out that the prince came as the supervisor of the Xiaocai battalion. Then ask the prince to follow the villain to the side door. ”
After Qian Mao said this, he led the way in front of him, and King Shui Rong of Beijing followed behind, and when they came to the side gate, the guards under the command of King Beijing were actually stopped.
Jia Ke's personal soldiers armed with knives and guns, stopped the guards of the King of Beijing at the door, and prevented them from entering the Wuyang Marquis' Mansion.
King Beijing was really a little annoyed now, and asked Qian Mao in an unkind tone: "What does Steward Qian mean?" ”
Seeing this, Qian Mao seemed to be about to have another conflict, so he hurriedly came to these pro-soldiers, "You guys, what's wrong?" Why did you stop the personal soldiers of King Beijing? ”
One of the leaders of these pro-soldiers bowed down and said, "Steward Qian, these people have blades, how can they enter our Wuyang Marquis Mansion?" In case of collision with nobles, who will take care of it? ”
As soon as Qian Mao heard what he said, he immediately became excited, what this pro-soldier said was reasonable, King Beijing was a high-ranking and powerful person, and there was no reason to take his pro-soldier to visit someone else's house with a blade.
Qian Mao waved his hand to let the soldier return to his position, and then turned to the King of Beijing and said, "Please also ask Lord Haihan, how can these guards of yours with knives and guns enter the Wuyang Marquis Mansion?" Besides, how could a subordinate visit the superior and go with a group of guards. ”
Although he explained to King Beijing, he did not give in at all, and now Qian Mao has understood, and King Beijing is not all here to pay a visit this time. If it is really sincere, how can the guards be so arrogant, how can there be a sword to break into someone else's mansion.
King Beijing thought about the emperor's entrustment, and finally suppressed his anger. He turned to his guards and said, "You are waiting outside the gate of the mansion, in the future, this Wuyang Marquis Mansion will not be a Longtan Tiger's Den, what threat can I have?" ”
After King Beijing finished saying this, he squinted at Qian Mao, which was obviously meant for him.
But Qian Mao's eyes and nose are like a wooden man, which makes King Beijing really have no way to take him.
Although the guards of the King of Beijing were not happy to be blocked out of the door, since the King of Beijing had spoken, they could only wait helplessly outside the door.
Qian Mao saw that the matter was resolved, so he took King Beijing into the Wuyang Marquis Mansion.
After King Beijing entered the palace of the Marquis of Wuyang, he looked around and found that it was beautifully decorated with carved beams and paintings, in addition to being inferior to his palace in terms of regulation, it was much stronger than his Beijing Palace. And it is also larger than his royal palace.
The two of them walked through several moon doors along the verandah, and finally came to Jia Ke's study.
Qian Mao came to the door of the study and asked the little guy who managed the study, "Is the uncle here?" ”
The little guy saw that it was Qian Mao and hurriedly gave a salute, "The little one asked the big butler to say goodbye, and replied to the housekeeper's words, the uncle has not come yet." ”
After listening to this little guy's words, Qian Mao thought about it, turned to King Beijing and said, "The prince will wait in the study for a while. I'll go in and report to the prince again. ”
King Beijing knew that Jia Ke would not see him so easily since he entered the Wuyang Marquis Mansion. Therefore, the anger at the gate of the mansion just now has subsided, "Steward Qian just needs to go, there is no need to greet me." ”
Qian Mao let the king of Beijing into the study, and then ordered the little servant to send fragrant tea. Only then did he inform King Beijing.
After Qian Mao left, King Beijing took a closer look at Jia Ke's study and found that it was unusual. On the Bogu shelf in front, there are all kinds of exquisite carvings and porcelain, and many things have never been seen in the Beijing Palace.
And there is a painting hanging on the study, the story is "Burning Quinoa Picture", and there is a couplet, which reads: "The world is full of knowledge, and the practice of human feelings is the article." ”
At first glance, these paintings and calligraphy are from the hands of famous artists, and they have been seen for a long time. Looking elsewhere, all the furniture is carved from precious huanghuali, and the rows of bookshelves on the back wall are full of books. King Beijing went up and flipped through it, and found that except for some books that are now popular, most of them are the only books of the previous dynasty. These books are priceless.
King Beijing didn't feel a little ridiculed in his heart when he saw this, even Jia Ke's martial artist had only read a few years and knew a few words. With so many books, it's a decoration at first glance. What a waste of these cherished lone books.
When King Beijing was looking around in the study, the fragrant tea sent by the little servant. King Beijing then sat down on the guest seat and tasted tea.
As soon as King Beijing drank this tea, he felt that something was wrong, these teas were completely different from the tea he usually used. Even many tribute teas are not as good as them. And I saw that the tea leaves were completely golden yellow, as if they were gold. At this moment, he suddenly remembered that in Miaojiang, there was a kind of golden tea, and the tea leaves of this tea were like carved from gold. Every time you pick tea, you can't use your hands, and a girl under the age of sixteen has to pick it off with her teeth.
