Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 1928, the British princess in a hurry to marry her daughter

At the gate of Liu Jin's mansion in the capital, Tian Yuanshan, Zeng Ziying, Sun Tianjing, Chen Peter, Jiang Xi, Li Xiangdong, Yun Tiantian, Ruan Wenhao and more than a dozen students came together.

"Brother Tian, ​​why didn't you tell me earlier when you left the hotel, it's really impolite for me to wait in such a hurry to visit Mr. Liu, the current chief assistant of the cabinet."

Zeng Ziying looked at the gate of Liu's Mansion, and said with some annoyance.

This Tian Yuanshan is really hesitant. When he was in the hotel, he didn't dare to tell everyone who he was visiting. If you want to follow, just follow along.

When it was at the gate of the Liu Mansion, everyone knew that they were going to visit Liu Jin and Liu Gong, the current chief assistant of the cabinet.

"Yes, Brother Tian~"

"At first, everyone just mentioned some dried fish and meat from Huangjinzhou, and thought that the visiting person was not very important, so they didn't make any preparations. Who knew it was the current Liu Gong. This is great. It must be a disrespect."

Sun Tianjing also followed suit.

Although everyone complained about Tian Yuanshan, when they arrived at the gate of Liu's residence, they hurriedly arranged their clothes and appearance.

It is a great honor for students like them to have the opportunity to visit Liu Gong, the current chief assistant of the cabinet.

Liu Jin is not yet forty years old, and he is a popular person in front of the emperor, and he is the chief assistant of the cabinet. I am afraid that Liu Jin will be the chief assistant of this cabinet for a long time from now on.

If he can be appreciated by Mr. Liu, if he becomes an official in the court in the future, he will surely have a smooth career and a magnanimous official career, so naturally he needs to perform well.

"Yeah, brother Tian is really not loyal enough."

"If you have such a relationship with Mr. Liu, you should tell everyone about it earlier. In this way, we can also prepare in advance."

"Now everyone knows nothing about Liu Gong's preferences, personality, style, etc., without any preparations. It is really rude to meet Liu Gong in such a hurry."

Jiang Xi also nodded and said.

If you know that Tian Yuanshan is going to visit Liu Jin today, then everyone should do their homework in advance.

For example, study what Liu Jin likes, antique calligraphy and paintings, or gold, silver, jewelry, jade, agate, etc., so that everyone can prepare in advance and give some gifts.

The key point is to study Liu Jin's political views and personality. When visiting, you can properly express some of your own views and opinions, so that you can be more compatible and appreciated.

Also, if the literary talent is good, it is natural to prepare some extremely beautiful poems and songs in advance, and let the other party appreciate it at that time, so as to gain the appreciation of the other party with literary talent.

These are also the methods that everyone has used in the past. Often, it takes a long time to prepare in advance to visit a minister of the court, instead of going in a hurry.

Even what to say during the visit, how to answer, etc. must be thought through in advance, so as not to leave a bad impression on the other party.

"I didn't know that everyone would come with me."

Tian Yuanshan also said with a wry smile.

Originally, I just wanted to visit Liu Jin alone as a younger nephew and give him some souvenirs from Huangjinzhou, and then asked Liu Jin to help introduce him to the palace to meet Emperor Hongzhi and give him some souvenirs.

Who knew that you would insist on coming over to join in the fun, what can I do.

It's all right now, these dozen or so people came to visit Liu Gong together, and Liu Jin might not even be willing to meet people like himself.

There is no other way, they have already come, and they have already arrived at the gate of Liu's residence, Tian Yuanshan can only bite the bullet and go forward to inform him of his identity and request for a visit.

In the study of the Liu Mansion, Liu Jin is receiving the British Duke Zhang Lun.

The relationship between Liu Jin and the British public is very good. When Zhang Mao was there, they had frequent contacts, and the relationship with Zhang Lun is also very good. They are about the same age and have many common topics.

"How time flies!"

"I think back then when you won the first prize, you married two beauties at once. This made countless people in the capital envious and jealous."

"In the blink of an eye, even Liu Xin has grown up."

Zhang Lun sighed that time flies, time flies, and in a blink of an eye, Liu Jin became the chief minister of the cabinet from a scholar at the beginning, and he has grown up with his children, all of whom are 17 years old.

When Zhang Lun mentioned Liu Xin, he naturally did not replace him casually, because he came here this time to urge Liu Jin to hurry up and ask someone to go to his home to propose marriage and marry his daughter to Liu Xin.

My daughter is now nineteen years old, and if she doesn't marry again, she will become an old girl.

In the past, Liu Jin was always procrastinating, saying that the child is too young, and getting married too early is not good for the child, so he has been procrastinating, otherwise he should have gotten married last year.

Now Liu Jin's second son, Liu Da, is married, and it is said that he is about to give birth to a child. Since Liu Xin is the eldest son, there is no reason to procrastinate.

"Zhang Lun, you know how to laugh at me."

Liu Jin smiled, then thought for a while and said to Liu Xin who was beside him: "Your father-in-law is here to urge you to marry his precious daughter back home as soon as possible. Do you want to get married this year?"

When Liu Xin heard this, he was taken aback for a moment, then he suddenly understood, thought for a while and said: "A child depends entirely on his parents~"

"Hmm~"

Liu Jin nodded in satisfaction, then smiled and said to Zhang Lun: "Why don't we pick a good day and get things done?"

"Haha, that's great, I've been waiting for your words for a long time."

When Zhang Lun heard this, he immediately nodded happily.

It's helpless to think about it, whoever marries a daughter needs to urge the other party to come and marry her back as soon as I do.

But there is no way, this marriage was decided by his grandfather Zhang Mao and Liu Jin together, and Zhang Lunah is also very satisfied with Liu Xin, a child.

They all grew up by themselves. Liu Jin’s family has very strict family education. The children in the family don’t look like playboys at all. They love to study since they were young. And Xu Waner's excellent genes.

Of course, needless to say, Liu Xin’s family background, in the future he will definitely inherit the title of Duke Liu Jin and Liao. It's the rich man.

"Liu Xin, come and sit at my house if you are free."

Then Zhang Lun also said to Liu Xin.

The families of Liao Guogong, Yingying Gong, Cheng Guogong, and Ding Guogong almost wore a pair of trousers. The elders got close to each other.

"Yes, Uncle~"

Liu Xin quickly nodded in agreement.

"Your child is too thin-skinned. If Zhang Yun bullies you in the future, tell me and I will help you fix her."

Zhang Lun was very satisfied when he looked at Liu Xin. This Liu Xin looked more like Xu Wan'er in appearance, more delicate and quiet. Thinking about his daughter Zhang Yun, she had the same personality as a boy since she was a child. He is two years older than Liu Xin, so he grew up bullying Liu Xin since he was a child.

"Forehead"

Liu Xin didn't know how to answer for a while, it seems that these words have been said by the man to the woman since ancient times, and he has reversed it.

But thinking of the painful experience of being bullied by Zhang Yun when he was a child, Liu Xin also understood why his cheap father-in-law said that.

"Haha~"

Liu Jin on the side laughed.

At this time, the housekeeper came in and said, "Master, there is a student named Tian Yuanshan who came from Huangjinzhou and brought a dozen students to visit."

"Tian Yuanshan?"

Liu Jin originally wanted to say that he didn't see him, but when he heard that it was Tian Yuanshan, he thought for a while and said, "Take them to the living room."

"Yes, sir~"

The butler also hurried to arrange it.

Liu Jin has his own set of rules when meeting guests. VIPs like Zhang Lun, who are very familiar and well-connected, are met in the study room. As for ordinary guests, they are met in the living room. .

"Brother Liu, the matter is settled like this. You arranged it earlier, but I am waiting to hold my grandson."

Seeing that Liu Jin had something to do, Zhang Lun achieved his purpose of coming, and got up to leave.

"Haha, okay."

Liu Jin naturally smiled happily and agreed.

Then he and Liu Xin sent Zhang Lun out of the gate, and then came to the living room to meet Tian Yuanshan and others.

In the living room of Liu's mansion, Tian Yuanshan, Zeng Ziying, Sun Tianjing and others waited patiently, and at the same time, they kept thinking in their hearts how to leave a good impression on Liu Jin.

This Liu Jin is not an ordinary official, he is the chief assistant of the current cabinet, with a high position and authority, and he is also a celebrity around the emperor and the prince. For a long time to come, Liu Jin will be the most powerful voice in the court people.

To be able to get his appreciation, there is no problem at all with rising to the top.

Everyone didn't wait too long, and Liu Jin walked in with a smile on his face.

"Liu Gong~"

"Meet Liu Gong~"

When Tian Yuanshan and the others saw it, they immediately got up and saluted Liu Jin.

"Well, please sit down~"

Liu Jin also bowed his hands in return, smiling and beckoning everyone to sit down.

Liu Jin glanced around and found something interesting. Of the dozen or so students who came to visit him, some of them had high noses and deep eyes, dark skin and prominent cheekbones. They were Southeast Asians at first glance. .

This is interesting. It seems that the Ming Dynasty's Sinicization policy and the Ming Dynasty's policy are still very good, and students from minority tribes in various places are constantly emerging.

This is also very good. Only by implementing the policies of Damingization and Sinicization can these frontier areas be turned into real Ming territory, and people from these minority tribes become real Ming people. Since ancient times, only the current Daming Empire can do so. able to actually do that.

In a few decades or hundreds of years, there will really be no need to distinguish between Han people and Hu people, they will all be Ming people.
