Previous page Return to Catalog Next page
- It was the sixth day of the twelfth lunar month in the twelfth year of Chongzhen in the Ming Dynasty.
On this day, Quanzhou was filled with joy, and the previous war seemed to have all disappeared. .
Ding Yunyi, the Marquis of Wu Lie, the General of the Fujian Army, the Shanghu Army, and the Hussars took concubines on this day.
¡° Taking concubines is not a big deal in the first place, but this time the taking of concubines in Dingzong Town was a little different. Not only was it well known throughout the city, but most of the officials from Fujian were actually present.
Mr. Ding obviously wanted to make this wedding an "unforgettable" "grand ceremony".
Only Hou Zhiquan, the magistrate of Zhangzhou Prefecture, secretly called his wife and son to his side before departure, and then he said: "My wife, my son, I am afraid that my father will have to say goodbye to you this time."
His wife and son were shocked when they heard this. They didn't know why he would say such a thing.
Hou Zhiquan smiled bitterly: "This is a Hongmen Banquet."
"Father, what do you mean? My son really doesn't understand." His son asked in confusion.
"Now the sky in Fujian belongs to Ding Yunyi; the land in Fujian belongs to Ding Yunyi; even the hands of the imperial court can no longer reach Fujian." Hou Zhiquan said with a sad smile: "Ding Yunyi has only two mortal enemies, one and the other. It was Zheng Zhilong and Zhang Kentang. When they were both powerful, almost all officials in Fujian, except in the Taiwan and Penghu areas, were either Zhang Dang or Zheng Dang. They either ignored Ding Yunyi or followed Zhang Fushuai to impeach Ding Yunyi. But now. When Ding Yunyi gained power, the world in Fujian suddenly changed."
"Does father think that Ding Yunyi will settle the score later?"
"It's hard to talk about settling accounts, but once the emperor is the emperor, there are ministers." Hou Zhiquan sighed: "He holds Fujian in his hands. If he wants to make Fujian his own as soon as possible, he must replace the officials with his own people."
"I don't believe that Ding Yunyi is so bold that he dares to dismiss appointed officials privately. That is a serious crime of losing his head!"
"Believe me, there is nothing that Ding Yunyi dare not do." Hou Zhiquan glanced at his son: "Zheng Zhilong once thought that Ding Yunyi did not dare, but Zheng Zhilong died; Zhang Kentang once thought that Ding Yunyi did not dare, but Zhang Kentang once thought Tang is also dead. In order to control Fujian, he actually promised Ye Yuan to be the governor of Fujian. This shows how much the court is afraid of Ding Yunyi. As long as he doesn't rebel, the court will respond to his request. "
He was silent for a while: "Taking concubines is not a very honorable thing. But Ding Yunyi wanted to make it known all over the city. It's ridiculous that those officials thought that Ding Yunyi wanted to take the opportunity to accept a large sum of money as a bribe. It's ridiculous for them. They all misjudged Ding Yunyi. If Ding Yunyi was only greedy for money, how could he do what he is doing now?
Where is i? He just wanted to use this concubinage to gather all the Fujian officials. Then settle accounts with them one by one! "
His son's voice suddenly rose: "My father has a good reputation and is deeply loved by the people of Zhangzhou. I don't believe that Ding Yunyi dares to touch an official like you!"
"You don't believe it, but I do." Hou Zhiquan sighed heavily again: "When Zhang Fushuai wanted to deal with Ding Yunyi, I tried my best to help him. When Zhang Fushuai sent troops into Quanzhou, I helped him with food and grass. Zhang Fushuai When Ding Yunyi was impeached, I was the first to sign it. Now that Zhang Fushuai is dead, do you think I can stand alone? "
"In this case, why does father need to go to Quanzhou again?"
Hou Zhiquan shook his head: "It's not possible if I don't go. Do you think he won't come after me if I don't go? If I go, I might be able to save you mother and son. If I don't go, there will be a big disaster for our Hou family." Come down there."
His wife started crying sadly when she heard this.
Hou Zhiquan's son was still unconvinced and said: "I don't believe that no one in the world can deal with Ding Yunyi. Please write a memorial immediately and send the son out of Fujian at the risk of death. Let the court know how arrogant and domineering Ding Yunyi is in Fujian." !¡±
"Master, master!"
Before he finished speaking, Hou Zhong, a member of the Hou family, had already hurried in: "Some soldiers outside came in and said they were from the Tiger Guards and wanted to see the master immediately."
Hou Zhiquan laughed miserably and said: "Memorial? I'm afraid Ding Yunyi has expected this. I am Zhang Fushuai's confidant. Who in Fujian doesn't know? Will Ding Yunyi let me go? Don't talk about Fujian. That's it. You can¡¯t get out of the house!¡±
Just as he was talking, a group of officials rushed in. The officer at the head said: "See Huang Tang. We are here to pick up Huang Tang on the order of Wu Liehou. Today
i Fujian is ever-changing and there are many bandits along the way. Housheng Wu Lie was afraid that something would happen to Huangtang on the way to the banquet, so he strictly ordered us to be responsible for the safety of Huangtang along the way! "
"My father doesn'tGot it! Before Hou Zhiquan could speak, his son had already shouted loudly: "My father yesterday
I am occasionally caught in the wind and cold. I am afraid I won¡¯t be able to go to Quanzhou this time. "
"Oh, really?" The officer smiled: "Don't be afraid, we have prepared a sedan for Huang Tang, and we will carry Huang Tang to Quanzhou. You don't have to worry about this, sir."
Hou Zhiquan¡¯s son gritted his teeth: ¡°I really can¡¯t go.¡±
"My lord, all Fujian officials have gone to Wu Liehou's wedding banquet. Why don't you go to Huangtang? Are you not going to give Wu Liehou face, or are you not giving face to all Fujian officials?" The officer's face was still filled with tears. He smiled and said: "I have a heart-to-heart talk with you, Master, please don't embarrass me, and don't embarrass Master Huangtang either."
Hou Zhiquan's son's voice suddenly rose: "What do you want to do? You are just a small boss. There is a big gap between your official rank and my father. You are committing a crime below. Do you want to rebel?"
"I don't want to rebel, and I don't have the guts to rebel." The officer said calmly: "I was just ordered to invite Huang Tang to a banquet. Why did the young master talk about rebellion? Young Master, please be careful what you say, and don't slander at will."
Seeing that his son still wanted to speak, Hou Zhiquan waved his hand: "Forget it, I'll go with you."
"It's better that Lord Huangtang can understand the difficulties of those of us who are subordinates"
Hou Zhiquan took a deep look at his wife and son and explained carefully. Then he straightened his clothes and walked out slowly. He was very sure that he was in danger this time, but he didn't care. He was already prepared to face all the most terrifying things.
And just as he had expected, as soon as he left, his residence was closely monitored by more than a dozen soldiers. This place is no longer allowed to enter but not to leave.
Quanzhou.
"Most of the officials on the list have arrived." Song Xianji came to Ding Yunyi's side and whispered: "Congratulations, Lord Marquis. Congratulations, Lord Marquis."
Ding Yunyi smiled: "It's just a concubine, why are you so happy?"
Song Xianji smiled slightly: "Taking concubines is just a small joy, but it is a great joy that Fujian will be completely controlled by the Marquis. The Marquis took advantage of the wedding banquet. Although this move is a risky move to eradicate all enemies, once successful, That¡¯s why I have no worries anymore.¡±
A smile appeared on Ding Yunyi's face: "Song Xianji, I heard that you spared no effort and traveled around for this matter this time. Members Lu Xi and others are responsible for the official investigation, while you are mainly responsible for the private investigation. In order to verify whether a piece of evidence is clear , stay up all day and night until everything is clear, is there such a thing? "
"Yes." Song Xianji said calmly: "I don't have any other abilities, and it was too late to join Lord Marquis, so I have to be more diligent in order to gain Lord Marquis's trust in me."
"You are a smart person and can do things well. What I need is someone like you." Ding Yunyi smiled: "I am going to let you be the agent in Quanzhou. What do you think?"
Song Xianji showed no surprise at all: "I once said that I have a short stature. I am not good-looking and have no authority at all. I am not suitable to be an official, especially to be a parent."
"You are self-aware." Ding Yunyi sighed and suddenly said: "But this is not what you really think."
Song Xianji was startled. I just heard Ding Yunyi say calmly: "What you are thinking is that you have been under my command for too short a time, and if I suddenly put you in a very high position, many people will definitely be dissatisfied, and the position under your butt will not be too stable. This is the first. Secondly, you see further than others and don¡¯t care much about the position I give you. You know that if you stay with me, your future will be more prosperous than any agency. Did I say that? Wrong that?¡±
"No." Song Xianji's body trembled unnoticed: "The Marquis is wise, and this is what I think in my heart. Being by the Marquis's side, even if I don't have any official position, is far better than any agency. "
Ding Yunyi nodded and said: "As I said before, you are a smart person, diligent and self-aware, which is good. If you serve me loyally, I will definitely not treat you badly in the future. But I want to give Just a warning, don¡¯t use this wisdom in other ways.¡±
His eyes were unpredictable: "I am also a very simple person. If you serve me loyally, I will give you whatever you want. But if you go against my words, what will happen to Zheng Zhilong and Zhang Kentang? You will What¡¯s the end?¡±
"Yes, I will definitely bear in mind what the Marquis said today." Song Xianji said with a breath of air.
He suddenly became a little afraid of Ding Yunyi. This Wu Liehou had always been someone he could not guess.??, whether it is in the way he speaks or does things, but no matter what, his fate is still tied to him.
At this time, Ye Yuanxian and Xie Tian walked in and nodded to Ding Yunyi. Ding Yunyi smiled "haha": "Everyone, today
I, Ding Yunyi, am very happy
Son, everyone, please show me your smiling faces! "
There was a lot of excitement outside. Officials from all over Fujian rushed here. Even Qin Yun, the number one manager next to Ding Yunyi, acted as the commander-in-chief of the wedding banquet.
As soon as he saw Ding Yunyi coming out, Qin Yun came up with a smile and said, "Third brother, we have made a fortune this time. Look, it's amazing. Bao Hongjiu, the chief envoy of Fujian Province, congratulated him with a pair of pearls and jade. A pair of Ruyi, a pair of red corals, and a pair of pure gold carved dragons. Oh my god, just these things alone cost less than one hundred thousand taels of silver."
"They have made a lot of money over the years." Ding Yunyi said with a smile: "We work hard and exhaust ourselves to make money, but as long as they move their mouths, huge amounts of money will go into their bags."
Qin Yun smiled and said: "Third brother, you keep half of these things, and I will keep the other half. We just moved to Quanzhou, and the expenses in all aspects are very high."
"Damn you, you actually took advantage of me." Ding Yunyi laughed out loud: "I'm afraid you are the only one in Fujian who dares to use my brain. Qin Xiaojin. Over the years, the voyage fleet and merchant fleet have brought you It¡¯s like running water, but you don¡¯t even let go of this little money?¡±
"You don't know how expensive firewood and rice are when you're not a householder." Qin Yun said seriously: "Where is money not used and where is there no need for expenses? Yes, large sums of money come in like running water, but I also have large sums of money. All the money is spent like water. In this firearms bureau and shipyard, where is the money not flowing out every day? There are also recruiting new soldiers, buying weapons for them, etc. You think I have to waste my money. Is it useful?¡±
"Okay, okay." Ding Yunyi's head got bigger when he heard this: "You always have a point, use it, use it, all the gifts I received today belong to you."
Qin Yun then smiled with satisfaction.
Song Xianji had been paying attention from the side. He suddenly discovered that Wu Liehou could only act like this in front of Qin Yun, and in the entire Huben Guards, it seemed that only Qin Yun dared to speak to Wu Liehou like this.
Ding Yunyi was busy greeting the guests. Ye Yuanxian and Xie Tian followed him closely, leaving only Song Xianji and Qin Yun. Qin Yun was about to go about his own business when Song Xianji suddenly said: "Song Xianji I have met Mr. Qin for my advice.¡±
Qin Yun looked at him up and down: "Are you Song Xianji, a famous scholar recruited by Marquis Wu Lie?"
"I don't dare to be called a celebrity." Song Xianji said humbly: "Song Xianji's life was saved by Wu Liehou, so everything was given by Wu Liehou. Lord Qin is the best of Wuliehou I trust my subordinates and will ask Master Qin for advice in the future.¡±
"Easy to say, easy to say." Qin Yun nodded: "Working under Wu Liehou is nothing more than being loyal and fulfilling your duties. You are new here, so just ask me if you don't understand anything."
Song Xianji hurriedly said: "I understand, I will always keep Mr. Qin's words in mind."
Qin Yun suddenly smiled and said: "Song Xianji, I know what you are thinking. Everyone knows that I am the most trusted person under Wu Liehou, so you are thinking of ways to flatter me so that you can do things in the future. The way to promotion, am I wrong?"
Song Xianji was speechless for a moment. How come the people under the Marquis are all such smart people? - Didn't finish reading?
