First Prince of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 662 Marriage

Zhu Biao thought about it carefully, and it's not impossible. Chang Mao is not too young, and unlike Xu Yungong, who had a baby relative since he was a child, their father and son have been running around for him in the past few years, but they have never been engaged.

The Chang family's heirs are not too many, and Zhu Biao's brother-in-law is only Chang Mao and Chang Sheng, so it's no wonder that the Crown Princess is a little anxious, after all, it's a big deal.

However, the marriage of such a top martial arts family must be bestowed by the emperor, especially when it involves Song Guogong Feng Sheng. Feng Sheng has no son, which makes the two young ladies of the Feng family extraordinarily precious. It can be said that a family with a daughter Hundreds of requests.

Although Feng Sheng has long been involved in the imperial court, and his only nephew Feng Cheng will inherit everything after a hundred years, but before his death, he will never ignore his two biological daughters, whether it is dowry or political support.

If my son has such a father-in-law, his official career will definitely be smooth and smooth, but it's a pity that Feng Sheng has a strict mouth, and he hasn't let go of it all these years. He insisted on keeping his daughter by his side for a few more years.

Apparently Feng Sheng handed over this question to Lao Zhu. Both Feng Sheng and his elder brother Feng Guoyong, who died young, were the first to follow Lao Zhu from the dragon and tiger ministers. They both once commanded the soldiers and guards. confidant.

Even Lao Zhu didn't want to be harsh, so he never made an engagement with the two young ladies of the Feng family, and it can't be said that they were two. The Duke of Ying, Feng Guoyong, left behind a son and a daughter, who were raised under Feng Sheng's knees. of.

It's just that the prostitute daughter of the Duke of Ying caught wind and cold, so she didn't come this time. The older two have reached the age of engagement, so it's not easy to delay this matter, at least there must be a charter.

The nobles are marrying each other, which is also a balancing act for the superiors. If they all let them go, then the trend of martial arts will be hard to contain. The daughter of the Feng family must marry into one of the Tian family.

And it has to be Feng Sheng's daughter, no matter how beautiful Duke Ying was in the past, he is gone now, Duke Song is in the prime of life, no matter how you look at it, it is still too early for Feng Cheng to want to be in charge of the family.

Now that several of them are about the same age as the young lady of the Feng family, they are already married, which is naturally impossible, so the fifth child can only marry the second young lady of the Feng family in the future.

As for whether he is willing or not, it doesn't matter, I believe that the fifth child will not be ignorant, and in this way, it is all right to follow the wishes of his own princess and let Chang Mao marry the young lady of the Feng family. After all, the Chang family is his serious wife. It is also appropriate to win over the Feng family for him.

Now that he has thought of this, Zhu Biao is ready to make a decision. The most suitable daughter of Duke Ying is Mu Ying. The relationship between Mu Ying and Feng Cheng is good. Getting married is also a good talk.

Moreover, the identities of the two parties are also very well matched. One is the daughter of the Duke of the state and the other is the young Marquis. If you think about it, your father will not have any objections, so everyone will be safe.

As for Feng Sheng, he should be more content. The three sons-in-law are all noble, and even Mu Ying will never be limited to one Marquis in the future. Be your own family.

Feng Cheng's proficiency in bow and horse is considered good in the second generation of Wu Xun, but it is only good. It is okay to inherit a prince, but it is definitely impossible to fully accept the military power left by his uncle.

So Zhu Biao is going to let Mu Ying marry Feng Guoyong's prostitute, which is to remind Song Guogong that the Song family can keep some. After all, this is what the two brothers have won by fighting for a lifetime, but it is also necessary to return most of the military power to the court. necessary.

Let Mu Ying become his family's son-in-law, so that everyone is decent, and the military power can be passed smoothly. In the future, the older generation can retire and enjoy their old age. From a psychological point of view, it is always easier to accept it as a son-in-law.

In this way, several top dignitaries in the imperial court have been arranged properly. If it is not a last resort, Zhu Biao still hopes that they will have a good ending, even if it is for the reputation of his father.

Just when Zhu Biao was thinking, some Guozijian students gathered together, most of them were past the weak crown years, but it was not easy to enter the Guozijian all the way from the local area at this age, and they were considered young and promising.

What's more, now that the imperial examinations are suspended, the Imperial College is the only right way to become an official. Naturally, the students of the Imperial College are also rising, so this time some outstanding students were invited.

"Students are waiting to meet His Highness..."

Zhu Biao smiled and said: "There is no need to be too polite, it happens that I also want to ask you something, so come forward."

The six or seven students were overjoyed for a while, and they just wanted to come over to say hello while there were few people around His Highness. If it could impress His Highness, it would be a worthwhile trip, but they didn't expect His Highness to have the intention of talking to them.

Don't lose your manners in front of the prince, and the few people hurriedly adjusted their mentality, trying to make themselves a little more tolerant, watching Zhu Biao who was a little flustered without urging them, allowing them to calm down slowly.

After they moved a few steps closer and stood up as if they were listening to the instruction, Zhu Biao pondered for a moment before asking: "The imperial court suddenly stopped the imperial examination, what do you think?"

The few people obviously didn't expect the crown prince's first question to be so sharp, and they obviously didn't dare to answer. The leader responded reluctantly: "Students and others who have shallow talents and virtues dare to talk about state affairs. We only know that there are sage kings in court and ministers in the court. With such a decision, there must be a deep meaning, only when the scene is followed!"

Their attitude is not surprising. The Jiangnan literary world has just been killed, and who dares to discuss state affairs, let alone the imperial examinations, which are determined to be arbitrary.

But Zhu Biao still frowned slightly and reprimanded: "Those who are responsible for state affairs, even if they are not responsible for their duties, they can also talk endlessly! Where did the sages learn?"

They were so frightened that their faces paled and their figures were shaking. I am afraid that they will lie down and apologize if the prince reprimands them a few more times. Zhu Biao did not continue to embarrass them. This kind of thing is not something they can say, so there is nothing wrong with it.

The students who benefited the most from the suspension of the imperial examinations are their Guozijian students. They originally had to compete with the imperial examination candidates for official positions, but now they only need to compete with their own peers. Although the Guozijian has also expanded its enrollment, it is still better than before.

Scare them first, but Zhu Biao is used to it. The sweet dates behind the stick will be extra sweet and delicious. Otherwise, pure kindness and kindness will not be enough to scare the subjects, and it will easily make them feel lucky to fool them.

Then Zhu Biao asked a few simple knowledge questions, which they are best at. After some answers, he looked at the prince carefully and expectantly. A sense of happiness welling up from the depths arises spontaneously.

If the conditions do not allow it, I really wish I could dig out everything about myself, as long as I can win the favor of His Highness, death will not be in vain!

It is not surprising that such an inexplicable extreme and impulsive mentality appears. Everyone has a strong mentality, and the monarchy has expanded this to the extreme. Is there any individual in the world who can be stronger than the emperor?

Although Zhu Biao is not yet the emperor, he is not bad. It is the same in the world and in the court.

After acquiring knowledge, Zhu Biao began to test them on basic government affairs. In the end, knowledge is just knowledge, and it is just an assessment before being an official. High knowledge does not mean that people can manage the people's livelihood in the state capital.

It is not that Zhu Biao has never been to the Imperial College at the beginning of his establishment, and he also has a certain understanding of the students of the Imperial College at that time. In fact, they are no different from the students outside.

They all keep their ears to the outside world, only read the books of sages and sages, open their mouths and keep their mouths shut to govern the country and the world. If they really ask about local practices, they know eight senses and seven senses, but they don't know anything.

There are even some Jinshi who are over 30 years old and don’t know the grains. They don’t even understand the simplest taxation.

That's why Lao Zhu would suspend the imperial examination angrily. It's really that these people are not good enough to do things.
