Dai Qianyuan heard that he had been dismissed and demoted as a groom. Although he had expected, he still felt a burst of despair after hearing such a notice. It was really back decades ago.
It is said that he first joined the army decades ago. With his father's shadow, he entered the post with the general flag, starting from a higher starting point than most people.
As a veteran of the military, the old army leader has everything if he has military power in his hand. Without military power in his hand, he doesn't know what else he can have?
If he was in the Ming army, even if he was demoted as a groom, he could still control the army in his hand.
However, if he did so in the Chinese army, he would be dead, and he also deeply understood that in the Chinese army, the soldiers of his subordinates were bent on the Liu family and the Chinese army, and it was impossible to follow him for his own sake.
We worked hard to join the Chinese army. How could we go to the past for him? Dai Qianyuan gritted his teeth. He said, "thank you, general."
Dai Qianyuan stood up and staggered out. At this time, Liu Kang suddenly asked, "how much did you spend on these two beauties?"
When the other party asked, Dai Qianyuan was stunned. He said, "this is a gift from a humble position to the general. No money."
Liu Kang said faintly, "no merit, no reward. As a general, you can't accept gifts in public. Shel has good intentions."
However, Gao, rich and noble immediately said, "what an identity, general, can you accept gifts and damage your reputation? You are a servant girl bought from the street. It doesn't cost much, it's only 35 Liang silver. The general is willing to pay money to redeem it."
Liu Kang said, "you can have it. I can't take your things for nothing. Since you bought it for 35 liang of silver, I will buy it at 10 times the price. 50 liang of silver will be sent to you. Please also send the two deed of sale."
It's not a robbery, it's better than a robbery.
Hearing this, Dai Qianyuan's heart is even more gloomy. If he really thinks, these big men in officialdom are not fawning or flattering if you want. You don't fall into his eyes, just want to please, but others still despise them.
These two beauties, but he bought them at a high price and asked famous teachers for guidance. He wanted to teach them according to the Yangzhou thin standard. He spent two or three thousand Liang. Now the other party is going to buy them for only dozens of Liang. It's more cruel than robbing. He also made it clear that he won't get his favor.
Before Dai Qianyuan could react, Gao Fugui immediately said, "don't worry, general. I'll do it well."
Liu Kang said gloomily, "this is the end of today's business. I don't want to see a second time."
This is a warning. Dai Qianyuan bent down and said, "I know."
Less than a day after becoming a brigade commander, Dai Qianyuan lost his official before his ass was hot. Dai Qianyuan's heart was full of emotion. He was full of resentment for his ignorant father.
But he knows how humble it is to have no military power or official position in this troubled world. He can't even want to be a man.
Dai Qianyuan returned home and was scolded by his father again. Although he was tied up by several men, he was born in martial arts. He soon broke free from the rope and was ready to make trouble, but he was dragged by his men.
At the moment, Dai Qianyuan's heart was also full of anger. He said angrily and loudly: "you old coffin ladle, go make trouble? If you want everyone to die, you might as well make trouble. If you want everyone to be like Zhang Youwei and Li Zhuhua, go make trouble. Let's see who will put a column of incense on more than 200 mouths of Dai's family next year."
Mr. Dai scolded him bitterly: "you are making excuses for your greed for life and fear of death. The Dai family has no unfilial children like you. The Dai family has helped protect Daming from generation to generation and won glory and wealth. Why have there been children who betray their country and seek glory like you?"
The old man stood on the moral highland and scolded Dai Qianyuan wantonly. Dai Qianyuan couldn't find reasonable words to refute in front of the other party's righteousness.
When Dai Qianyuan was scolded, Gao Fugui came to Dai's house with a team of Pro guards.
Dai's house is called the general's house in the local people, because his father and son have successively served as officials to the deputy chief and the chief. They are figures of power. Although they can't compare with those top nobles, they are also a big man in the eyes of ordinary people. There are more than 200 people in Dai's house, and the population is prosperous.
Dai Qianyuan was a little relieved to see Gao Fugui coming. He said, "brother Gao, you are the first person to visit after your brother fell down. It's true that adversity sees true feelings and people's hearts over time."
Gao Fugui hurriedly said, "don't get me wrong. I just came to ask for the two girls and their deed of betrayal. This is what the general told me. I didn't dare to delay at all."
When the other party said this, Dai Qianyuan had nothing to say. He waved and motioned the housekeeper to do it.
Dai Qianyuan said, "since brother Gao is here, how about going to the backyard for a few drinks?" he also wanted to escape his father's scolding.
Who knows, Gao Fugui is ungrateful. He took a bag of silver from his arms. He said, "there are fifty Liang silver here, which is ten times the price you bought the two girls. Hurry to bring the deed of sale, and we have nothing to do with it."
Dai Qianyuan said, "brother Gao, why do you need this? With our friendship, will you care about these dozens of silver?"
Gao Fugui said, "you don't care about Dai, it's your business, but we must settle accounts with our own brothers. One more thing, Dai, you should understand that now you are a groom, and I why you are the colonel and head of the Chinese army. There is a huge distance between the two. Don't match them with brothers in the future. You should call your military post as good."
Gao Fugui perfectly explained what it means to steer in the wind and what it means to fall into a well. Seeing that Dai Qianyuan was in trouble, he immediately began to get rid of him and didn't even dump each other.
Hearing this sentence, Dai Qianyuan was very disappointed. He knew for a long time that if people like him had no military power and official position, they would be nothing. In the past, the wine and meat friends who were called brothers were rich and noble, but they couldn't afford to look at him and didn't recognize him. He couldn't force him to do this. He had to bow his hands to each other, which was the intention of serving tea.
Gao Fugui was about to leave. Who knows this grumpy old man Dai, but he couldn't see the villain's style of the other party. He said, "mean villain, it's better not to come to my Dai mansion."
This sentence completely angered Gao Fugui. His face sank and said coldly: "Old man Dai, I would have asked you to be an old man and have been patient with you. You, Zhu Ming's former general, are not farts here, but a crime. How can you be qualified to sneer at the general? Others have received your favor, but you will have been fined, so you'd better be polite to the general, otherwise it's a crime of disrespect to insult the superior officer."
The old man was angry and arrogant. After the other party said this, he suppressed his anger and made him speechless.
He can drag and be arrogant, naturally because he has an official for decades, but he is very powerful. But now Daming has lost his power and his official position is not smart. It's reasonable that the other party doesn't bird him, which makes him a little frustrated.
Gao Fugui said coldly, "at your age, you married a concubine last month, so enjoy your life. Why do so many bad things that are out of tune and bring trouble to your children and grandchildren? Yuzhou Dai family has passed on for a hundred years. Don't you want to pass it on? If one day Dai family suffered a crime, it would not be merciful." Then he shook his sleeves and walked away.
After the other party nagged, old man Dai felt unhappy. He sat down and lost his pride.
That is to say, when Daming is over, you can shake the prestige of Daming. When the other party respects his identity, you can shake it. When the other party doesn't bird him, it's really nothing.
Now the old man realized that my Daming was dead, his official position was gone, and the scenery and glory he had earned in half his life disappeared, which made him very lost.
At this time, Dai Qianyuan said, "the Ming Dynasty is already a sunset. Even if we have the power to turn the tide, it won't help. If we say loyalty and righteousness, the luxury family in Yongning, the family in Shuixi, the Song family in Shuidong, these millennial families, the imperial court to which they were loyal, have long disappeared, but they are still here."
The old man said coldly, "what are you trying to say?"
Dai Qianyuan said, "even moral gentlemen such as the Confucius family have served the twenty-two dynasties. Whenever the city head changes the king's flag, they change their face and loyal to the new dynasty. What's the problem with the generals who eat with the knife in their hands? Why not?"
Dai Qianyuan's words really made the old man silent. Can he compare with the Kong family in terms of loyalty and morality? Even the Kong family is like this. What else do others want?
The old man sighed and said, "the imperial court is as kind to our Dai family as a mountain, but we rebelled when the imperial court was in trouble. It's really a rebellious minister and rebellious son. We're unfaithful and unjust."
Dai Qianyuan said coldly, "life is more important than anything. Zhang Youwei is a loyal minister. He is a cow. He made so many people lose their lives. I am shameless, but I brought tens of thousands of people back home and saved tens of thousands of homes."
The old man was so angry that he said, "you say Lao Tzu in front of Lao Tzu. Whose Lao Tzu are you? Can you do it instead?"
Dai Qianyuan then realized that for a moment, he said something he shouldn't have said and apologized. He said: "My God, although I dare not say that thousands of families live as Buddhas, I have saved so many families. Sir, it's good for you to enjoy your old age at home and marry more concubines. You have to make trouble in the Chinese army. Do you know that all my plans and plans are gone, the Dai family has no relationship, and no one will be an official, Fart is not, mean people despise high wealth. "
This can be regarded as saying that in the heart of the old man, the high, rich and noble style just now really hit him, and he didn't feel good about himself. Now he found that it's not easy to be a loyal minister. The famous Fang Xiaoru also took the lives of ten nationalities, but he didn't have the courage to do so.
