Datang Longya

Chapter 937 Women are Officials
However, after a little thought, he dismissed the idea.

Others may get carried away with rewards for some meritorious service, but the Duke Protector will never.Because, since he knew Lord Protector, this one has been a figure close to the apex.At that time, the Duke Protector was very approachable.

Seeing Di Xiaoxu's complexion changed, Leng Feng glanced at Di Renjie, Di Renjie could only shrug his shoulders, seeing his grandpa's face changing, he couldn't help but want to remind him.

Walking into the living room of Di's house, hot tea and snacks were brought up as soon as he was seated.

After taking a sip of tea, Leng Feng said: "Master Di, County Magistrate Di, I'm here today, and I want to ask one more thing besides preaching the decree. At the beginning, I remember that you asked me to match Di Renjie and Wu Mei, right? Why did you change your mind later? Could it be that there is something wrong with my female apprentice?"

Di Xiaoxu's hand holding the teacup froze, and the cup fell to the ground.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

Di Xiaoxu calmed down while calling the servants to pack the cups of tea.

He knew that the protector would ask such a question one day, but he didn't expect that the protector actually invited the imperial decree to ask this question by the way.

If before, he could count Wu Mei's shortcomings and explain the incompatibility of the two, but now that the emperor has given him a marriage, wouldn't he be asking for trouble if he said it again?
Seeing that his father was silent, Di Zhixun sighed and said, "Mr. Protector, it's not that we think Wu Mei is not good, but that she is not good enough. Huaiying was taught by you, you should know his The future is boundless. If we can form a marriage with a big family, it will be of great help to him in the future. Parents in the world expect their children to become dragons, and you have children, so you should understand this heart. Please bear with me."

Di Zhixun's reaction was quick. Since he couldn't blame Wu Mei, why couldn't he promote Di Renjie and then involve parents' love for their children?
If you speak in a different direction, it will be less likely to offend people.

Di Xiaoxu also nodded again and again: "What Gouzi said is right, the old man was also involved in this matter, what's more, the old man learned that Wu Mei deliberately did not marry anyone, the old man was young, and was anxious to embrace his grandson, so he decided to marry her again." looking for its way."

Hearing these two reasons, even if Leng Feng wanted to find fault, he couldn't open his mouth.

In the final analysis, parents and grandpas expect the good of their children and grandchildren, and the old man wants to hold his grandson, it is all human nature, there is nothing wrong with that.

After receiving another imperial decree from the shadow guard, Leng Feng unfolded it and handed it to Di Xiaoxu, saying: "In the past, maybe Wu Mei was nothing, but now, it may not be so. This is the imperial decree from His Majesty to make Wu Mei an official. Let's take a look."

Di Xiaoxu received the imperial decree, but when he saw the words "Zheng Qipin Chaosan Doctor", he almost exclaimed.

Di Zhixun also leaned over to take a look, but was unable to make a sound for a long time.

The official position of the seventh rank is not a false official position of "first rank wife" or "second rank wife".

Originally, they thought it was an imperial decree prepared by His Majesty for Wu Mei's post-marriage appointment in advance, but they did not expect it to be a formal official decree.

A formal official position, no matter how high it is, is more important than a false official position. What's more, since ancient times, women have not been officials. Although Wu Mei is not the first one, but the Tang Dynasty is so prosperous, there are so many talents. , has explained too many things.

Such a woman, no matter what her family is, as long as she marries home, it can be said to be an honor.The only woman to be an official, but fell to their family.This is enough for their Di family to stand out in Datang.

Putting away the imperial decree, Di Xiaoxu respectfully handed the imperial decree back to Leng Feng, saying: "The protector of the country is sure to be a dragon and phoenix in adulthood, even if it is a girl, it is not comparable to ordinary people. What the old man said before is really true. Frivolous!"

Leng Feng took the imperial decree, smiled lightly, and didn't say much.

This is what he wanted for Wu Mei to be an official.For a man to be an official, he is not in the top four ranks, so he is not proud of it, but for a woman, it is different, not to mention the seventh rank, even the lower ranks, it is shocking enough!
Seeing that his father and grandfather were shocked by the master, Di Renjie secretly breathed a sigh of relief.What he is most worried about is that his father and grandfather have accepted the imperial decree, but it is still not the same thing as Wu Mei.Senior sister, he understands best, if this family makes her feel wronged, then this family is definitely not enough for her to worry about.But if this family makes her feel comfortable, then the family will only become more and more harmonious.

Sitting back again, Di Xiaoxu sighed, and said to Leng Feng: "The old man is arrogant. Since His Majesty bestowed the marriage, the sooner the two children get married, the better. Duke Hu, I don't know that Wu Mei's family still has elder?"

Leng Feng nodded: "There is also a mother, Mrs. Yang, but the current Mrs. Yang is only a commoner. Letting her come forward will not only lose the face of the woman, but I am afraid you will not want it either. In this case, Wu Mei will leave my house when the time comes. Well, if you marry me as my adopted daughter, even if I use it, outsiders can't say anything about it."

Both Di Xiaoxu and Di Zhixun nodded. This is an era when face is paramount. If the Protector sends out a guard of honor, then their family will stand out.After all, although Duke Protector is only a Duke, the guard of honor is royal.

A royal guard of honor, don't be too flamboyant!
Di Zhixun thought for a while before asking, "Then, Duke Protector, what about the dowry? Should we send it to your house?"

Di Xiaoxu rolled his eyes at his son: "Of course it was sent to the Duke Huguo's residence, do you need to think too much?"

Leng Feng shook his head again and again: "No, no, the dowry is still sent to their home. I, as the master, come forward to make her marriage more prosperous. After all, her mother is still alive."

Hearing what Leng Feng said, Di Xiaoxu immediately changed his words: "What the Protector said is that the dowry should indeed be sent to her mother. This is human nature, human nature."

Leng Feng smiled wryly, and looked at Di Renjie who was standing obediently behind his grandfather and father.

Di Renjie was so embarrassed that he could only cover his face with his sleeves. Grandpa's performance made him blush.

After a banquet, Di Renjie was sent by his father and grandfather to send Master home.

The two master and apprentice rode slowly side by side, heading home slowly under the setting sun.

Di Renjie couldn't help complaining again and again: "Master, you said that my grandfather is also a generation of upright officials, how come he has become so snobbish after retiring!"

Leng Feng smiled and said: "Okay, don't talk about your grandpa. It is said that children and grandchildren have their own blessings, don't be a cow and a horse for your children and grandchildren, but how many people can really do it? You are an official, but your reputation is not obvious. Now that the Di family has an elite like you, they naturally consider you in every way. To be honest, I originally wanted to scare your father and grandpa, but your father said "considering your children and grandchildren" It's over, I have no reason."
