Yang Fan was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Goddess Qin was sent to prison when she was young.
"Who is so powerful and has such abilities?" Yang Fan asked in surprise.
Yang Fan remembered that Qin Liangyu’s father was Qin Kui. It seems to be Sui Gongsheng.
The so-called "Sui Gong Sheng" means "recommended students", who are recommended to study in the Imperial College.
Qin Kui is from the Miao ethnic group, a minority ethnic group who is a tribute student, equivalent to the talents paid to the emperor every year. They are usually the sons of local chieftains, or children of families with greater local influence.
The purpose of the imperial court's training of them was also to penetrate their thoughts and increase their loyalty and patriotism by receiving orthodox Confucian cultural education. After they graduate and return to their family territory. Some people will become the next generation of chieftains and leaders of local forces.
This also led to tensions between the children of chieftains in the southwest during the Ming and Qing dynasties, especially between brothers and sisters. Because all the sons studied and grew up in the Imperial Academy. Many people have a high level of education, have a Chinese mindset, and have excellent connections and knowledge. .
After all, the Imperial College is only found in Nanjing and Beijing.
The daughters of the chieftain's family generally retain local characteristics and have distinctive personalities. He has a wild and spicy personality.
There are also many female chieftains in the southwest. Many chieftains' daughters marry the sons of other chieftains, and their husbands later become chieftains. If the husband dies young and the son is young, the chieftain's wife will be the new chieftain.
Therefore, there have been many conflicts in history.
For example, She Chongming and his aunt fought for land and water sources, and many large-scale armed conflicts occurred. There are also many wars that break out between brothers and sisters. Their concepts and ideas often cannot come together.
The students in the Imperial College are mostly the children of nobles and officials. Most of the teachers were officials. Like the Hanlin Academy, it was actually a way to train young cadres.
It's just that the Hanlin Academy is more high-end, and it places young talents around the emperor, the cabinet, and the six ministries to cultivate them. During his several years in the Hanlin Academy, he directly participated in the central operation as a secretary.
Those who are not Jinshi will not be admitted to the Hanlin, and those who are not Hanlin will not be admitted to the cabinet.
The vast majority of Jinshi who did not enter the Hanlin Academy after the imperial examination would never have the opportunity to enter the ministry or cabinet as chief officials in their lifetime. They also have little understanding of how power works at the top.
These young tribute students in the Imperial College, especially the children of ethnic minorities, are actually young cadres trained by the emperor. In the future, I will be an official in a minority area.
Yang Fan asked: "I checked, Qin Kui is a Sui Gong student. Did he study in the Imperial College of Nanjing or the Imperial College in the imperial capital."
Xiao Niangpi said: "Qin Kui first led him in Nanjing for a year, and then he was in the imperial capital."
"Then I understand. I said that General Qin speaks with a smooth Imperial Capital accent. Qin Kui must be studying in the Imperial Capital with his family, and General Qin grew up in the Imperial Capital." Yang Fan said.
Lin Yueru nodded and said, "Yes, Qin Kui has four children. Qin Liangyu is the third. The two older brothers are Qin Banghan, Qin Bangping, and his younger brother Qin Minping. The most talented among them is Qin Liangyu. He is skilled in bow and horse, familiar with military books, and has both His words are elegant, his manners are elegant, he also has military talents, and his military management is strict. His white-pole army is powerful in the southwest."
Yang Fan nodded and said: "The most difficult thing to deal with on the battlefield is the generals of the military system. They have been fighting for a lifetime. They are extremely experienced and have experienced all kinds of situations."
Lin Yueru continued: "Qin Liangyu was 1.8 meters tall when he was fifteen years old. She had almond eyes and peach cheeks, which were bright and moving. At that time, I don't know how many princes and grandsons were so mesmerized that they fell under the pomegranate skirt. However, none of Miss Qin was She didn't like them. In her opinion, these are the people who rely on their ancestral heritage."
Yang Fan sighed and said: "The emperor is no better than other places. The young master here is not something the Qin family can afford to offend. Which young master is so angry that he is so angry that he can destroy flowers with ruthless hands."
The little girl smiled and said, "You are familiar with this man. He was the matchmaker you hired in the first place."
Yang Fan was stunned and lost his voice: "Zhang Zhiji, it's not like that. The British gentleman is elegant and humble, and he has never had concubines, only his wife. The children are also born to his wife.
He is simply a model among the nobles of the Ming Dynasty. When I was young, it was like this..."
Lin Yueru said: "As a young man, love doesn't know where it starts, and it goes deep. People of the older generation were also young. When the British father was young, he was romantic but not obscene. His reputation has always been very good. But I don't know why, in this case, He was confused about the matter. His family had originally arranged a marriage for him. He firmly opposed it, but later it all fell apart, and the originally arranged marriage also got married. This matter was a big deal at first, and it dragged on for four or five years. Both Miss Qin and I have dragged ourselves down."
Yang Fan said: "There must be something we don't know about here. According to the normal script, Miss Qin's involvement in the marriage of the British prince is more dangerous than good. Who can say how many political transactions are behind these marriages? Qing. Even if Zhang Weixian can tolerate it, the nobles on the other side will not tolerate it."
Xiao Niangpi thought for a while and nodded: "What I said makes sense. Maybe Zhang Zhiji grabbed her to protect her. At that time, the matter might have gotten out of hand. It was dangerous to both her and the Qin family. "
Lin Yueru also said: "Later, the incident became more and more serious, and the Qin family was also afraid. The Qin family also accepted their daughter as Zhang Zhiji's concubine. They just wanted to get their daughter out as soon as possible. In fact, even if she was a concubine, it was also They are trying too hard. However, Miss Qin is determined not to do it. She has no intention of doing this to Young Master Zhang. It’s all because of Young Master Zhang’s enthusiasm.”
"That's right. If she can't stick to principles in major matters in life, then she will not have any subsequent achievements. Wealth and honor cannot be suppressed, power cannot be surrendered, and poverty cannot be moved. Although I am talking about scholars, Miss Qin is indeed He has the demeanor of a man." Yang Fan said.
"However, this matter was delayed for four or five years before the dust settled and she was released. She did not turn against Mr. Zhang because of this. On the contrary, she maintained a relationship as ordinary friends. She and the British father-in-law and his wife continued to have contacts later. The British princess even went to the prison to see this strange woman."
Yang Fan said: "It was Zhang Zhiji who brought so much trouble to others and caused such a big mess because of his emotional problems. Fortunately, it was all dealt with in the end. But it also delayed others. 28-year-old Hua's Beauty, turned into an old maid."
"Miss Qin is a generous and sensible person. Mr. Zhang does not mean bad, but he likes her too much. Is it wrong to love someone? Maybe this is the main reason why she does not blame him. After all, Mr. Zhang is She has paid so much for this, and she is a little touched."
Xiao Niangpi nodded and said: "This is often the case in this world. If you like someone, they may not like you. No matter how much you pay, it will be useless. I guess Mr. Zhang also figured it out later. He accepted the family's arrangement and married Zhang Shize’s mother.”
"The aftermath of this incident is not small. At least no one in the imperial capital dares to marry this eldest lady. Isn't it unlucky to offend the British prince for a woman? Qin Kui later returned to Mingyuxi with his family. Miss Qin Later, the operation became more vigorous. There was a competition in Chongqing to recruit a bride, and finally she chose Ma Qiancheng, the chieftain of Shizhu, as her husband. She was already 22 years old at this time."
The little girl smiled and said: "Didn't you realize that Zhang Shize is a bit young? He is about the same age as you. Ordinarily Zhang Zhiji's son must be thirty years old. As you said, what you can't get is white moonlight. , all you get are cinnabar moles."
Yang Fan told them that a cinnabar mole is a girl who, after seeing all the prosperity in the world, still wants to marry her home and stay together for the rest of her life.
