Chapter 2528 The Future Prince Consort
"I am so happy that you have grown from seeds to small trees."
After dinner, I woke up and Ma Su went to the study. There was no tea on the table, but a map.
"Your Majesty has just captured those people, and the morale of the scientific students has been greatly boosted. This is the right time. Suzhou Mansion is not far from Jinling, and the lower part is close to Songjiang Mansion. They are both good places, and the waterway is quite convenient. This is the geographical advantage."
Fang Xing drank some wine, pointed at the map and said, "People say that Su Song pays half the world in taxes, but now the tax and grain debt owed by the Suzhou government alone already exceeds 10 million dan. This is simply ridiculous!"
Ma Su smiled bitterly and said: "Teacher, this is the handiwork of Taizu Emperor Gao, and His Majesty is not easy to touch!"
Fang Xing shook his head and said: "Your Majesty was not too impatient when he first came to the throne, but now is the time. This is harmony. The time and place are favorable and the people are here. Your Majesty is very generous to you. If you can't achieve results, you Just stay in Suzhou.”
Ma Su said: "Your Majesty loves me so much that I will definitely work hard. It's just that my disciple has gone to the south. Teacher, please take care of yourself..."
Fang Xing smiled and cursed: "I'm in very good health! Get out of here!"
…
The next morning, Fang Xing asked Ping An to see Ma Su off south, and Li Ermao also asked for leave to see him off.
After they reached the main road, Ma Su refused to let them go any further.
"Er Mao, you went to Shuntian Mansion this time. Although it is close, there are more people watching you, so be careful."
Li Ermao said: "Yes, no one kept an eye on the original censor, but now he is an official doing things. If you do things, you will make mistakes if you do them. But I am not afraid."
He looked at Ma Su and said: "You have gone to Suzhou. It is an anointed place with many powerful people. You should cheer up."
Ma Su said with a smile: "Okay, let's stay on our own side. We will meet again in the capital in a few years, and then we can get drunk together!"
Li Ermao cupped his hands and said, "Have a nice journey."
Ma Su bowed his hand, and then told Ping An, asking him to be filial, and set off with his family.
Outside the pavilion, beside the ancient road, the grass is green.
In another direction, a group of people were bidding farewell to a man.
"It's disappointing that a great talent in the department was chosen as the consort. However, it is said that the princess is a virtuous person. After marrying her, she will naturally be able to add beauty to her sleeves. Boating on the lake is also one of the great pleasures in life."
"The princess has been favored by two generations of emperors, and she is also the sister of the current generation. She is always taken care of. From now on, she will be a rich and powerful person, so why should she be depressed."
"Yes! Now that His Majesty hates us, he has promoted those crooked people and promoted them to the third level! Therefore, for a gentleman like Xi Zhongxiong, it is best to stay away from disputes."
"Brother Xi Zhong seems to be unhappy, but he is happy in his heart! Don't send us off, let Brother Xi Zhong enter the city."
The man surrounded in the middle had a face as dark as water, and he cupped his hands and said, "Thank you all for seeing me off. I'll say goodbye now."
The group of people laughed loudly, and someone said: "When I go to the capital, remember to be careful in your words and deeds. Otherwise, if you don't tell the princess you can't marry, your future will be ruined for the rest of your life."
The man nodded and mounted his horse.
After entering the city, he asked all the way and found the clan mansion.
There was only an old man in the Zongren Mansion. The man saluted. The old man opened his eyes and said listlessly: "Are you Li Wei?"
The man responded: "Yes, the student is Levi."
The old man glanced at him and said: "If you win the imperial examination, you can be regarded as a young man. But once you win the title of princess, you will end the imperial examination. Are you willing?"
The man nodded and said, "The student is willing."
The old man then started talking to him, talking nonsense all over the world.
This tugging continued for a long time until the old man felt hungry, and then it ended.
"let's eat together."
Levi was very cautious while eating and did not raise his head during the whole process.
But the old man ate very relaxedly, and even asked for tea after finishing the meal.
At this time, the old man casually asked him about the situation at home, and Li Wei answered carefully.
By the time we left the capital and returned home to Tongzhou, it was completely dark.
After meeting my parents,
Li Wei told what he had seen and heard in the capital, and then said dissatisfied: "Father, others are flocking to that prince-in-law, but the child can't avoid him. It would be great if he could pretend to be sick and hide away."
Father Li sighed: "We have been picked to the end, and you are the only one left. How can we hide? To hide is to deceive the emperor."
Mother Li said dissatisfied: "What are you trying to do to deceive the emperor! Marriage must be consensual. Otherwise, even if the princess marries her, she will not be able to salute me. I cannot be her mother-in-law."
Father Li advised: "Why are you so stubborn at this time? If we really decide that our son will be the consort, then we can just enjoy the wealth and honor. Think about it, how nice it would be to have a princess who treats you with respect?" If you are not satisfied, you can still scold her."
Princesses of the Zhu family are rarely domineering, and this is what Zhu Yuanzhang started.
So after marrying the princess, as long as you don't mess around, it's basically stable.
"Father……"
Li Wei suddenly said: "After marrying the princess, the whole family will no longer be able to serve as officials."
Father Li said with a frown on his face: "It's okay. Except for you, no one in our clan can take the imperial examination and become an official. But I'm afraid those people will take the opportunity to ridicule our family and then ask for benefits."
Mother Li said sharply: "It's all that Sangmenxing..."
Father Li quickly covered her mouth and shouted: "Be careful, the walls have ears!"
Mother Li struggled to break free, and then cursed: "What about the princess? Can't I, her mother-in-law, order her to do anything? Then let Xizhong live at home and let her live a widowed life!"
Father Li smiled bitterly: "But Xizhong can't take concubines!"
Mother Li sneered: "Why not! When the time comes, just say she is a maid. Who dares to identify her? Who dares to marry the princess in the future?"
Li Wei listened on the side and finally said: "Father, mother, let's talk about this after the dust settles."
Mother Li knew that her son agreed with her opinion, so she said: "Don't worry, mother will naturally have a way to discipline her, and let her serve you honestly when the time comes."
Li Wei glanced at his father who just smiled bitterly, and remembered that his mother could always suppress his father's wrist, so he said: "Mother, let's talk about it when the time comes."
The next morning, Li Wei went out for a walk, and the neighbors were all congratulating him.
For those who have no hope of becoming an official, being a son-in-law means a step to heaven, so these congratulations are mixed with envy, jealousy and hatred, which makes Li Wei feel better.
After his classmates and friends came, everyone asked him about what happened yesterday.
"It's just asking."
Li Wei said simply, and someone said, "Brother Xizhong, it is said that the son-in-law should be respectful!"
This person and Li Wei usually have conflicts, so the seemingly caring words made Li Wei sneer in his heart.
Another person said, "You know shit! His Majesty has said that in the future, when the royal family marries a daughter, although the dignity of the royal family must be guaranteed, the princess and the daughter of the royal family must not be arrogant, let alone domineering, and should live like ordinary couples."
"When did His Majesty say that? Why don't we know?"
The man said proudly, "My cousin is a servant in the mansion of the Prince of Xinxiang, and I heard it with my own ears, and the Prince of Xinxiang said it was a good thing."
This was said by Zhu Zhanji to the royal family in Beijing during the New Year. One is to warn, and the other is to reform the marriage of the royal family and remove some rigid rules.
So everyone congratulated Li Wei.
Li Wei responded modestly: "It was just luck."
Ordinary couple?
Li Wei remembered his mother's words, and gradually he was not so opposed to this marriage.
