Reborn Ming Dynasty as Emperor

Chapter 282

Seeing that Wei Min'er showed no resistance, Ruan Dacheng couldn't help but secretly rejoiced, and hurriedly said, "Speaking of which, we've made it to the top!"

"This man is a noble man, His Royal Highness the King of Chu who came here to visit that day. He has always been on good terms with him as a brother, and he also knows that he is a prince with precious personal character, unlike other royal relatives who use power to overwhelm him. people, and the wives and grandmas in the mansion are all virtuous and kind to each other.”
"Because he mentioned that he wants to take a side room to manage the increasingly complicated affairs of the palace, that's why Brother Wei dared to mention you in front of him."

"Because you have shown your face before, the king of Chu was a little reluctant at first, but when he heard that you are the daughter of the chief minister, he agreed." Ruan Dacheng continued to persuade while the iron was hot, and deliberately made up some words .

But Wei Min'er was not happy because he mentioned that the king of Chu was going to marry her. Instead, he heard that the king of Chu was a little displeased at first because he had shown his face in the past, and because he knew that he was the daughter of the chief minister, he agreed. Somewhat disgusted, what's more, she felt that even if she wanted to marry, it would be best to marry into an ordinary family, because it might be inconvenient to go to such a wealthy family.

Therefore, Wei Min'er hurriedly said without even thinking: "Thank you for your kindness, cousin, but my cousin has little virtue and has seen other men, so she really doesn't have a clean identity, and she doesn't dare to go to the royal family's house, and please decline." Bar."

As soon as Wei Min'er disagreed, Ruan Dacheng suddenly realized that he had said something wrong just now, and secretly regretted that he shouldn't have said that he was the king of Chu.

Saying these words to look down on her would make my cousin feel disgusted.

But Ruan Dacheng was unwilling to give up because of this, and hurriedly said: "Maybe it's my cousin who didn't understand what I said. In fact, the King of Chu himself doesn't care about anything, but the court's Ministry of Rites and the Clan's Mansion have these requirements, and on that day you also I see, His Royal Highness King Chu is a very humble person, you, don't worry too much."

"It's not that the cousin is worried, but that the cousin really has no intention of climbing high. What's more, as the cousin said, there must be the imperial court's will for the feudal king to accept the concubine, and I'm afraid the king of Chu can't do it alone."

Wei Min'er was just looking for an excuse. The implication is that I don't have to reject the King of Chu, but there is no way, the court will not let someone like me enter the royal family of the Zhu family.

"Where is it, this is the emperor's will. If the King of Chu did not get His Majesty's will, how dare I let my cousin come to marry me?" Ruan Dacheng was also in a hurry to go to the doctor. Seeing his cousin say this, he denied it What she said, let's simply say that this is Zhu Youxiao's will.

But Wei Min'er was stunned because of this, and hurriedly asked seriously: "Wait, cousin, did you just say that this is what His Majesty means?"

Ruan Dacheng didn't know why Wei Min'er suddenly cared about this, he had to know that the feudal king's concubine was nominally under the control of the court but it was just a formality, but since his cousin cared, he nodded without thinking: "Yes. "

But Wei Min'er seemed to have made an important decision, and gritted her teeth: "Okay, I'll marry!"

As she said that, Wei Min'er couldn't help but glanced in the direction of the imperial city. She didn't understand why the emperor named Zhu Youxiao made such a decree and agreed to let herself be the concubine of the King of Chu.

Didn't he say he wanted me to be his woman, but why did he betroth me to someone else?

Wei Min'er couldn't help but smiled wryly, and couldn't help mocking herself that she shouldn't think so much. After all, she had already rejected that emperor, and it was already the greatest gift for him not to kill him or take him by force. What's wrong with him? To be the concubine of the King of Chu according to his will, is considered to be loyal.

Maybe he just wants me to be someone else's concubine and be angry for the rest of my life.

Thinking of this, Wei Min'er couldn't help but burst into tears again, but fortunately it was already night, and Ruan Dacheng couldn't see her expression.

After seeing Wei Miner's agreement, Ruan Dacheng was naturally overjoyed: "In this case, I will report to His Highness the King of Chu, cousin, and you are also ready to prepare. The King of Chu will be able to seal the land in a few days. We We will also set off for Huguang tomorrow, and then we will find a good day and auspicious day to get married."

"Well, it's good to leave this place. It's best that he never comes to see me. The work of phonetic notation is almost finished. I'll hand it over to Mr. Tao An (Zhang Dai) tomorrow," Wei Min'er said. He returned to his room and began to organize the work in his hands.

Ruan Dacheng didn't hear what his cousin Wei Miner said clearly, so he didn't know that Wei Miner agreed to marry Zhu Huakui, King of Chu, because he said that this matter was Zhu Youxiao's order.Ruan Dacheng couldn't wait to get someone to catch up with King Zhu Huakui of Chu, and told King Zhu Huakui of Chu that his cousin agreed to the marriage.

……

At this time, Zhu Youjiao summoned Li Mingrui, a scholar of the cabinet, and Ye Shuo, a minister of the Ministry of Rites of Nanjing, on the platform to discuss how to carry out systematic and standardized sacrifices to Zhongliang of the past dynasties, and use this to guide the scholars and people to be loyal. Daming, the purpose of recognizing the status of the imperial court.

But there is still a problem here, which is how some highly controversial historical figures judge whether they are loyal or traitorous, especially some characters in this dynasty. Now the first problem facing Li Mingrui and other people in the Ministry of Rites is whether to restore Qi Jiguang's reputation.

"Qi Jiguang's meritorious service in fighting the Japanese, and not even just in terms of his merits in the fight against the Japanese. From Jiajing to the present, the reason why our Ming Dynasty can maintain the current situation and the border defense has not been completely disordered can be attributed to Qi Jiguang. It can be said that He brought us decades of peace."

Zhu Youxiao naturally wanted to affirm Qi Jiguang's status, not only because Qi Jiguang was a general, but the reason why Qi Jiguang fell was because he had a great relationship with Zhang Juzheng. And rehabilitating Zhang Juzheng is undoubtedly a benchmark to encourage such ministers to come forward.

Of course, more conservative officials also know about the relationship between Qi Jiguang and Zhang Juzheng. Re-staged in the Apocalypse Dynasty.

That's why they asked Zhu Youxiao for Qi Jiguang's definition.

However, just as Zhu Youxiao was expressing his attitude, Wu Jin walked in at this moment and whispered in his ear: "Your Majesty, Yong'an Square has brought news that King Zhu Huakui of Chu has gone to Miss Wei's house again."

"Why did he go again! Didn't you stop it!"

Zhu Youxiao stood up suddenly, scolded Wu Jin, and said, "Go, drive that guy out, without my will, no one is allowed to enter her mansion."

Wu Jin couldn't help showing bitterness, but he didn't explain, and even winked at Zhu Youxiao, because Li Mingrui, a cabinet scholar, and Ye Shuo, Minister of Rites, were here at this time. In the face of these two ministers, you have exposed your own bottom.

Seeing this, Zhu Youxiao also understood that he had lost his composure, and waved to Li Mingrui and others in embarrassment: "You go down first, and we will discuss about Qi Jiguang tomorrow."
