Chapter 503 My site is my master

Under Wei Zheng's stare again, Zhang Yan, with a flushed face, directly avoided Wei Zheng's eyes when he looked at him... and then, he subconsciously wanted to agree.

The Minister of Rites, who had never spoken, couldn't bear to see Wei Zheng provoking Queen Yi'an again and again and destroying the etiquette and law. He spoke directly.

"Master Wei, I hope you don't go too far. The queen has already given you face... in the Ming Dynasty."

In terms of emotion and reason, you cannot meet Princess Le'an in advance. Please do not make things difficult for the Queen."

He had never even seen his future wife and was about to marry him. Although Wei Zheng, who came to the Ming Dynasty, heard this more than once. However, when this kind of thing really happened to him, Wei Zheng still couldn't accept it.

Even though Chief of Staff Sun Chengzong had repeatedly told himself that this Princess Le'an was very beautiful and well-educated, if she married her, she would definitely be a very good wife. However, Wei Zheng only believed in one sentence, that is, seeing is true. Otherwise, he would never joke about the future of himself and Princess Le'an.

So, as soon as the Minister of Rites finished speaking, a sneer appeared on Wei Zheng's face.

In front of Queen Yi'an, he asked with a murderous look on his face: "What are you? Can you take a look at Princess Le'an in advance? It's a private matter between me and the queen, and it has nothing to do with you..."

"If I let me hear you a nonsense again, you should not leave the Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces. Don't forget that this is the Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces, it is the territory of my patriot, not the court you use to show off your prestige..."

Facing Wei Zheng's murderous roar, the arrogant Minister of Rites, who had just been arrogant, lowered his head like a defeated rooster and retreated back to Queen Yi'an.

As for Queen Yi'an in front of Wei Zheng, her red face was covered by shock at this moment.

Because Wei Zheng just showed strength and murderous aura to the second-rank minister of the court, the second-rank minister of the rituals, which he had never seen in Emperor Tianqi and Emperor Chongzhen...

As a warlord who is away from the court, it takes a lot of strength and courage to say to an important minister of the court.

You should know that according to what he knows, Wei Zheng, who looked murderous in front of him, was a little bandit in the border a few years ago. After only a few years, he developed into a local warlord that the court feared. How did he do it...

Could it be that his abilities in all aspects are stronger than those of the emperor Chongzhen of the dynasty? Otherwise, why did Sun Chengzong, who had always served the court, choose to betray the court and join the Tiger and Leopard Army...

Faced with the various questions that flashed through his mind in the blink of an eye, what Zhang Yan didn't know was that his feelings for the forefather Wei Zheng had changed from dissatisfaction and disgust when he first came into contact with him, and gradually became interested.

Once a woman becomes interested in a man, it means that this woman is falling in love with this man who is unable to understand and see clearly step by step.

However, these slight changes were unknown to Zhang Yan.

Of course, even if Zhang Yan knew that she, who was the queen, would deny it.

Just as Zhang Yan's face changed with psychological changes, Wei Zheng's spearhead had been transferred from the Minister of Revenue to Zhang Yan.

Of course, the murderous aura that continued to emanate from the whole body slowly dissipated...

After taking a deep breath, he said firmly: "Sister-in-law, I want to know your answer... If you don't agree, then I will take back the word "Sister-in-law" I just called you. The court gave me the marriage to me. I can't live up to me. At this time, I will agree to the most basic conditions for this marriage..."

Facing Wei Zheng's sudden serious gaze, Zhang Yan, who was undergoing various changes in his heart, fell into hesitation again and didn't know how to answer.

At this moment, Zhang Qianshu, the Minister of Revenue, who regarded the interests of the court as everything, spoke again: "Empress, I think that whether it is for the future of Marshal Wei or Princess Le'an, you should agree to Marshal Wei's condition. The old minister believes that with Princess Le'an's beauty and knowledgeable and well-educated, Marshal Wei will definitely be satisfied... The Empress should believe in Princess Le'an and Marshal Wei..."

With the buffer time that Zhang Qianshu asked him, because of Wei Zheng's sudden strength and murderous aura, Zhang Yan, who was shocked, finally reacted from various complex emotions...

After taking a deep breath, he ordered to the palace maid beside him: "Transfer the imperial edict of this palace to let Princess Le'an come to see me, and by the way, come and see her future husband..."

Soon, Princess Le'an, also wearing a crown suit, appeared in front of Wei Zheng.

Facing Princess Le'an, Wei Zheng's first feeling is also two words, that is, beauty.

Queen Yi'an Zhang Yan gave herself a stunning and mature feeling. As for Princess Le'an beside Zhang Yan, she gave herself a fresh and refined feeling.

Just one glance, Wei Zheng recognized his first wife since he came to this world.

However, what Wei Zheng could see was only appearance. To truly understand this Princess Le'an, it would take enough time.

So, he looked deeply at Princess Le'an and Empress Yi'an in front of him and made a shocking decision, and said: "I took over the imperial edict of the court to give the marriage. However, the specific wedding time must be pushed back by one month. As for how the court explained to the subjects all over the world, it was the court's own and had nothing to do with me."

Does postponing the wedding for one month mean that the five million taels of silver that the court will continue to be given to the court within one month?

Zhang Qianshu, standing behind Empress Yi'an, could not imagine that one month later, under the temptation of the high military pay of the Tiger and Leopard Army, would the more than 100,000 border soldiers guarding the border in the imperial court would have escaped completely...

So, as soon as Wei Zheng finished speaking, Zhang Qianshu, who looked anxious, said in a hurry: "Master Wei... Your wedding day is the auspicious day calculated by the Imperial Heaven... If you make any changes, it may not be the auspicious day, so please consider it carefully..."

Wei Zheng replied without thinking: "I know what you are anxious about... The wedding day is pushed back by a month. As for the specific time of wedding, I will notify the court. As for the five million taels of silver urgently needed by the court, I can give it to you immediately. However, Lord Zhang needs to go to the Governor's Office in person and discuss it with Vice Premier Zhou of the Governor's Office..."

"In addition, I have another requirement... Although my husband's wedding was postponed, Empress Yi'an, who is responsible for the marriage to me, is my husband's future sister-in-law, must stay with Empress Yi'an in the Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces... As for when to go back, I also have the final say..."

A very important factor in the reason why the court granted Wei Zheng a marriage was five million taels of silver.

Since five million taels of silver have already been settled, Wei Zheng’s specific wedding time, and even the stay and departure of Queen Yi’an, are not something that Zhang Qianshu, the Minister of Revenue, can handle.

Besides, with Zhang Qianshu's understanding of Emperor Chongzhen, as long as he gets the money, Emperor Chongzhen will not care too much about Empress Yi'an's stay or leave.

After all, this Empress Yian is her own sister-in-law, not her own wife.

Therefore, as soon as Wei Zheng finished his request, Zhang Qianshu rushed to answer: "Master Wei, my official represented the court and agreed with Master Wei's two requests... Empress Yi'an and Princess Le'an can stay in the Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces..."

"But I hope that General Wei can fulfill his promise and hand over the five million taels of silver to the official as soon as possible..."

Wei Zheng replied without thinking: "Five million taels of silver is a huge sum of money for the court. However, for me, I can only get it by squeezing my fingers. So, since I said it, I will give it to you... If you don't believe it, you can go to the Governor's Office now to find Vice Premier Zhou, and discuss the matter of silver..."

"I will go right away..." Zhang Qianshu, who was anxious to see the money, answered without thinking.

At this moment, Empress Yi'an's increasingly angry facial expression finally appeared in front of Zhang Qianshu. Under the gaze of Empress Yi'an's angry eyes, Zhang Qianshu could only answer with an embarrassment: "Please atone for the emperor... You also know the current dilemma of the court... I hope the queen can make another contribution for the court and the emperor, and stay in the Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces..."

After saying that, Zhang Qianshu, who was full of anticipation, left here under the glare of Queen Yi'an.

Looking at Empress Yian, who was angry in front of him and was constantly breathing heavily, the serious expression on Wei Zheng's face was quickly covered by a smile... and then he said to Empress Yian and Princess Le'an.

"You all saw... this is not a marriage granted by the court... To put it more directly, for five million taels of silver, the court directly sold you two to me..."

"Don't be angry anymore. Since the court has sold you to me and came to me, I will not let you suffer grievances. You must know that you bought it back with five million taels of silver."

Queen Yian, who was already full of anger, had a stronger expression of anger after hearing Wei Zheng's sarcastic words. The most obvious thing was that her face, which had only a hint of blush, had been flushed by anger at this moment.

Because although Wei Zheng's words were very unpleasant, he, who was smart, understood the ultimate purpose of this political marriage in a short period of time from the dialogue between Wei Zheng and Zhang Qianshu.

Of course, this is not what makes Zhang Yan angry the most.
