The fire broke out in Li's mansion until dawn.
In the morning of the next day, Rong Ling went to Li's mansion as scheduled. As soon as he entered the mansion, he saw a large number of bodyguards outside the courtyard, some in a hurry, some in a whisper, all seemed to be very busy.
After entering the main courtyard, this situation became more and more obvious. Outside the main hall where Qian Mengyao was, there were two or three chief bodyguards who always stood in the ordinary days, but now there were no figures.
Rong Ling knew that last night's plan should have been a success. He went in quietly and saw Qian Mengyao who was using breakfast in the hall.
Probably because he was in a good mood, Qian Mengyao ate a lot. Looking at Rong lenlai, he asked him to eat together.
Rong Ling said that he had eaten it at home and showed off a word without trace: "Liu Wei said it was cold these two days and cooked me ginseng porridge."
Qian Mengyao had a delicious meal. Hearing this, he put down the dishes and chopsticks and stared at Rong Ling. "Brother Rong doesn't mention his wife for a day, will he die?"
Rong Leng did not lift his eyelids. He didn't respond at all. He sat down in the ring chair next to him.
When Qian Mengyao finished eating, Yueshan Sheng also came over there. Looking at the busy area outside the hall, Yueshan Sheng asked, "before tonight, can the news come?"
Qian Mengyao estimated: "it should be, always let me calm down."
There was a big fire in the place where he lived. The fire was so huge that it almost killed people. You sent the king to be furious. You ordered the bodyguard to investigate overnight, but it passed overnight, but nothing was found.
At the same time, the bodyguards who were in caoying and in the Han Dynasty couldn't control who let the fire go. All they knew was that you sent the king on a pretext.
It's obviously just an accident, but he just wants to make things small. It's not that he has nothing to do with it, but that he purposely seeks misfortune for the three masters in Beijing.
At this time, if these three forces don't want to tear up their faces with your king, they must do something to restore the relationship.
Qian Mengyao specifically mentioned the king of a country last night. Obviously, he was in the process of selection and put this shit pot on the head of the emperor's forces. So now, although the three forces are anxious, the most urgent one is the emperor's one.
Qian Mengyao has done so many things for three reasons: first, let the emperor worry about his relationship and give up meddling in Wanli case; second, give the emperor a lower horse power and tell him that he is not so easy to bully; third, show him to other two forces and tell others that he is not a cabbage.
If he succeeds in killing three birds with one stone, it will also lay a good foundation for his return to Beijing.
As for the success or not, the news should be received by tonight.
Qian Mengyao did this. After that, he bought the old house of the Su family, but when he sold it to others later, it was bought by Qin Yuanchuan, who was sent by Wanli.
Qin Yuanchuan is a pawn running errands for Wanli, but Wanli, a dog that smells, is actually working for the emperor.
Qian Mengyao could almost guess that the emperor had investigated the affairs of the Su family more clearly than his client many years ago.
In fact, to put it bluntly, this matter of the Su family is a small matter. In the past few years, it hasn't caused much trouble. For Qian Mengyao, it doesn't matter at all. For the emperor, it's just a check. Then he finds that it's of little value and throws it out of his mind.
can only let Qian Mengyao know about such a trivial matter. The emperor had investigated himself many years ago, and he knew that the emperor had investigated his message. Before that, he had repeatedly expressed it in front of the guards.
This is the convenience of being monitored. What he wants to express, as long as he inadvertently reveals a little, the person who should know will naturally know.
And the previous thing is just a guide. The real time to break out is this fire.
Qianmengyao knew that the Emperor didn't trust him. He investigated himself many years ago. He was not happy. During this time, he spoke bitterly. The bodyguards were silent. At this time, the house was on fire, but no one was hurt. Qianmengyao was injured. In front of life and death, the prince, who was usually polite, became furious, angry, hit people, hit people It's like tearing your face. I'm not going to die.
However, no matter the emperor or the other two forces, they are all innocent. No one really wants to burn qianmengyao.
But if Qian Mengyao doesn't believe it, he depends on them. Especially the emperor, he will be killed, not to say that the emperor did it.
And at this time, if the emperor doesn't want to tear his face now, he must compromise and coax Qian Mengyao, the "victim", even if he is not the "perpetrator", he has to speak softly and speak with Qian Mengyao.
Did Qian Mengyao listen to him?
No, he won't listen.
What if you don't listen? It can only be expressed by action.
That night, as Qian Mengyao expected, the bodyguard leader who was beaten to the face by him last night, who is still swollen, came here and kowtowed his head ten times, claiming that the fire last night was really an accident. But the bodyguard failed to rescue the prince in time, which is also a fault of dereliction of duty. Therefore, he proposed that all the personnel on duty should be responsible for 30 staff, and he himself was also the person on duty last night It's the leader. He's willing to double the penalty and pay half a year.In fact, Qian Mengyao burned his elbow and gave some blood. After he was bandaged by Yue Dansheng last night, most of them are better today. There is no problem at all.
But he didn't want to be good, so after the leader of the bodyguard put forward the punishment, he not only agreed, but also said: "after the punishment, take your people with you, get out."
The chief of the guard kowtowed heavily again, but said nothing.
In fact, we all know that people and the head of the guard also know that the reason for this is that you sent down the king and didn't want them to follow him. Before, you were a kind man. Because you knew that the emperor had investigated him, they stopped working. They were angry and had nothing to do. Now, they really can't stay. Fortunately, they also received the news today. If you sent down the king and drove them away They don't have to struggle. They should go.
In this way, the leader of the guard didn't beg for mercy any more. He received the punishment according to the rules and regulations, and left with people honestly.
Li's residence is still the same as before, but Qian Mengyao's side is quite clean.
One of the original three forces was expelled, and the other two forces, because the "revolt" of your surrender to the king, did not dare to be too arrogant, became obscure and low-key.
While qianmengyao was comfortable, another message came from Beijing.
It's from the inner palace. It's said that Wang Gonggong, the great eunuch beside the emperor, has been seen to delete the name of a concubine named "treasure beauty" from the list of overturned cards in Shengjia every night. It's said that the treasure beauty was the little Lord that tingjiangzhou sent to the palace last year.
No one knows who sent the news.
No one knows how a concubine, who is not lucky, can spread the word to Xijin County thousands of miles away.
In a word, after hearing this anecdote, Zhuang Chang, the governor of Wanli's government, who was in charge of the cases of corruption, shielding, Party building and private business, announced that three days later, he formally opened a court in the county government of Xijin county to hear Wanli.
On the same day, Wanru snow, the daughter of Wanli, will also be tried for murdering people and buying murders.
