The scrivener took the paper that recorded Ding Changsheng's confession to Ding Changsheng and asked him to sign and draw it, Ding Changsheng didn't recognize the traditional characters at all, and now his life was in the hands of Qian Yiai, so he didn't dare to look at it carefully. Ding Changsheng took the confession and didn't look at it, signed his name crookedly below, and pressed his handprint.

Qian Yiai saw Ding Changsheng signing and drawing, and said with a smile: "Head Ding, you and I will be the prince's henchmen in the future!" In the future, the crown prince will ascend to the throne, and you and I will all be ministers of the dragon! ”

Qian Yiai said politely, but Ding Changsheng dared to really regard himself as the prince's henchman, and the prince's henchmen were only Qian Yiai in front of him and Xia Wanchun in Beijing, and he was just the prince's dogleg.

"How dare you, how dare the lower officials be on a par with Lord Qian!"

Qian Yiai didn't really take Ding Changsheng as a colleague, and nodded when he heard Ding Changsheng say this: "Head Ding, now that you are the prince's person, you will work for the prince wholeheartedly in the future, if there is any disloyalty!" After Qian Yiai finished speaking, he raised the confession in his hand, "This will appear in front of the emperor, you want to murder the prince, what do you say the emperor will do with you?" ”

After hearing this, Ding Changsheng repeatedly promised that he would be the prince's dog leg in the future, and promised to be loyal to the prince, etc.

Although Qian Yiai said that he would cover up for Ding Changsheng, Ding Changsheng was still not at ease, and asked carefully: "Lord Qian, what does Lord Qian want to do about the matter of the lower official?" ”

Qian Yiai said with a smile: "There are secret agents from Jinyi Weinan Town Fusi who came with this official, and they are responsible for solving the case. However, Commander Ding can rest assured, they will reply to the emperor that Commander Ding really did not know, but the quartermaster was not well maintained, which caused the musket to go off! That quartermaster is Commander Ding, your substitute for the dead! ”

The cheap old man who is loved by Qian is Zhao Mengguan of Nanzhen Fusi, and this kind of planting kung fu out of nothing is naturally skillful.

Ding Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Qian Yiai say this, and he was even more grateful to Qian Yiai.

Qian Yiai continued: "The main responsibility is not Captain Ding, but the secondary crime of not being strict with the emperor is estimated to be unavoidable, and Commander Ding is afraid that he will be transferred from the Praetorian Guard when he goes back!" ”

This is also something that can't be helped, no matter what Ding Changsheng says, he is also the chief official, and he must be jointly and severally responsible for the crimes committed by his subordinates, and Ding Changsheng has long thought of this.

"Hey, it's good that the lower officials can stay for a life, where do you dare to stay in the army?"

Qian Yiai saw that Ding Changsheng was depressed, and said with a smile: "Head Ding, do you think this is nothing to do with you?" Do you think that the prince's efforts to excuse you are just to let you go home to retire? ”

Ding Changsheng's heart tightened, too, what is the identity of the prince, where will he do useless work?

Ding Changsheng hurriedly bowed down and asked, "Xiaguan is already a wasted person, I don't know what else the prince needs to do?" ”

"Commander Ding, when you leave the Praetorian Guard, you have to go to your old commander Ma Rufeng, and ask him to help you arrange a position in the Yamen, the commander of the infantry army, after all, you are also considered to have ended up like this for them this time, this official estimates that Ma Rufeng will definitely help you, and you don't need to say what to do in the future!"

When Ding Changsheng heard this, it suddenly dawned on him, it turned out that the prince had worked so hard to keep the idea he had originally fought and let himself go to Ma Rufeng's side as a spy. Ding Changsheng thought about it, and there was nothing to do, he had already been taken advantage of by Qian Yiai, so he had no choice but to order

Head promised.

The infantry commander Yamen is responsible for the defense of the nine gates of the entire Beijing city, with more than 50,000 troops in his hands, which is a big force, and if it is really a last resort, this army is definitely a threat. However, the Yamen, the commander of the infantry army, has always been the sphere of influence of the King of Qin, and Zhu Hai cannot penetrate it at all. That's why Qian Yiai thought of such a good way, using means to subdue Ding Changsheng and let him be this spy.

Ding Changsheng was born in the Fourth Division, and he was still a comrade-in-arms who fought side by side with Jiang Blind in the Battle of Xinyang, so he would definitely be able to get mixed in with this relationship. However, Ding Changsheng can only be a middle-level when he enters, and he will definitely not be able to touch any secrets, but he will definitely be able to play a miraculous role at a critical moment.

After Ding Changsheng went out, Qian Yiai met with a few more attachés, these people were all civil officials, and there was no political affiliation, so Qian Yiai also said a few words of officialdom, hoping that they would not have any burden, and would do their best to run errands for the emperor and so on.

After all the things were done, it was getting dark, and Qian Yiai looked at it, and not a single guard was taken out of the post station, and he was going to participate in the reception banquet prepared by Wu Peichang.

Although Wu Peichang is corrupt, he still has two brushes to govern the locality. A few years ago, Kaifeng Mansion was still full of dry bones, but after Wu Peichang's governance, it slowly regained popularity. Now there are a total of 120,000 people in Kaifeng City, most of them are craftsmen and displaced people, but there are people where there is consumption, not to mention that Kaifeng is located in the heart of the Central Plains, and it is the main road of traffic from south to north, so there are still a large number of merchants gathered here.

The Henan Provincial Post Station was built in Beicheng, which is the station of various yamen in Henan Province, so Beicheng is also the first place to regain popularity.

Qian Yiai wore a white dress, took a folding fan and fanned it elegantly, regardless of whether it was September now, it was really silly to take a folding fan in this weather.

Qian Yiai went out and was about to call a sedan chair, but when he thought of a person who looked like a family member coming over on the side, he bowed down and asked, "Is this Mr. Qian?" ”

Qian Yiai nodded and asked, "It's Qian, who are you?" ”

"I've seen Master Qian, the villain is the governor's housekeeper, my lord said that he was afraid that Master Qian would not find a place, so he sent a villain to wait at the door to lead the way for Master Qian!"

Qian Yiai saw a small sedan chair parked on the side, but he didn't expect this Wu Peichang to be fully prepared. Qian Yiai nodded, got into the sedan chair and rushed to the Qixian Tower.

Qixian Lou is the first big restaurant in Kaifeng City, several layers of yards before and after, now it is the mouth of the meal, and the door is ushered in to send it to be lively.

However, if the governor wants to invite guests to dinner, he can go through the gate, and the small sedan chair directly crosses the Qixian Building and walks to a small alley on the side.

This small alley is very secluded, away from the hustle and bustle of the main entrance. Walking into the alley for more than 200 meters, a black lacquer gate opened, a sedan chair was carried in, and Wu Peichang was standing in the courtyard waiting.

Qian Yiai got off the sedan chair and looked at the surrounding environment, which was very elegant, and said with a smile: "Brother Xiwen is looking for a good place, it is very elegant!" ”

Wu Peichang said with a smile: "There, it stands to reason that Brother Zigao is not an outsider, he should have gone to his brother's house, and your sister-in-law would cook a few side dishes, and you and my brother would have to drink." But Brother Zigao knew that his brother was from Jiangxi, and he was afraid that the Jiangxi dishes made by Brother Zigao would not match Brother Zigao's appetite. This Qixian Lou is the best restaurant in Kaifeng City to cook Jiangsu and Zhejiang cuisine, their kitchen

The division was invited by Suzhou Mansion, so my brother arranged the reception banquet here! ”

Qian Yiai heard Wu Peichang say this, and hurriedly thanked him: "Little brother has bothered Brother Xiwen!" ”

"There, there, as long as Brother Zigao eats happily! Come, please come in, please come in! After Wu Peichang finished speaking, he pulled Qian Yiai into the house.

The intellectuals of the Ming Dynasty were very troublesome to eat, which was completely different from the drinking and bragging of later generations. First of all, you have to find a few famous prostitutes to sing and dance, and then you have to chant poems to be happy, and you can only drink and eat when you are happy, and you can't finish drinking this process for three or four hours, so most of the banquets in the Ming Dynasty start in the afternoon and end late at night.

However, today, Qian Yiai's identity is special, and he can't find some famous prostitutes to help the fun, so Wu Peichang introduced Qian Yiai into the house and served the food directly.

The dishes are all Suzhou cuisine, what mother oil boat duck, squirrel mandarin fish, catfish lung soup, Xiangyou eel paste, sauce recipe, etc., Qian Yiai tasted a few bites and it was not bad, Wu Peichang was telling the truth, the chef of this Qixian Lou was invited by Suzhou, and these dishes are eight or nine points similar to authentic Suzhou cuisine.

The wine is not the Guangdong liquor that is popular all over the country, but the old Wujiang liquor transported from Suzhou, which belongs to the rice wine category, which is a low-alcohol wine, which is easy to rot and become sour, and it is really more expensive to transport it from Suzhou thousands of miles away.

Qian Yiai took a sip and praised: "Good wine, I'm afraid this old Wujiang wine is not cheap!" ”

Wu Peichang was overjoyed when he saw that Qian Yiai liked it, as long as Qin Cha was happy, the money was worth it.

"What money is not money, as long as my brother likes to drink!"

Now that the wine and food have been served, the idle people in the house have been driven out by Wu Peichang, both of them are officials, and the first thing to talk about is naturally the secret affairs in Beijing officialdom.

At this time, the news of the uproar in the Beijing court had reached Henan, Wu Peichang was a princeling, and he was also the same year as Ma Mingyuan, so he naturally paid great attention to his backstage boss.

"Brother Zigaoxian, my brother heard that the Jingshi Imperial Court was in an uproar, I don't know what the details are?"

Qian Yiai is a first-hand witness, so he naturally knows the details, and now when he hears Wu Peichang ask, he will explain the chaos two months ago in detail, but Qian Yiai is a scholar official and a vested interest in the cabinet system, so he naturally wants to speak from the side of the cabinet.

Wu Peichang's news in Henan is not smooth, he only knows some in the letters with his friends in the officialdom, and now he is not only embarrassed to hear Qian Yiai talk about the situation at that time.

"Brother Zigao, why do you say Your Majesty is doing this?"

Qian Yiai snorted and said, "Do you still need to ask, naturally I don't want the cabinet to take care of the emperor's affairs." What is the Military Aircraft Division? The Military Aircraft Department is to kneel and accept the record, that is, the emperor orders you to carry it out, so that the emperor can do whatever he wants, collect taxes if he wants, and fight if he wants to fight, this is the emperor's original intention. ”

Wu Peichang was shocked when he heard this, isn't this the emperor going to make a speech? Isn't the Military Aircraft Department an inner court-like institution like the Master of Ceremonies?

Of course, Wu Peichang doesn't have those feelings for the country and the people, he is just worried that the cabinet will be replaced by the Military Aircraft Department, so what will his backstage boss Ma Mingyuan do?

Thinking of this, Wu Peichang asked, "Brother Zigao, what should I do with Lord Shoufu?" ”
