As soon as Zhu Biao's words came out, Lao Zhu understood it clearly. Being without a wife and children meant that there were no worries and restraints. This was inappropriate, especially for a person like Ming Sheng, who had a special status and was bound by a territory.
"The eldest girl and the two girls are already booked, how can you let your third sister go?"
The third child is Zhu Biao's biological sister, but it is not impossible if he is Mingsheng. Zhu Biao does appreciate him. If he is really a person without virtue and talent, even if his status is suitable, Zhu Biao will not be able to appoint him to seal the territory.
Important tasks.
But that's not the problem. Zhu Biao's eldest sister, Princess Lin'an, is only twelve or thirteen years old, not to mention the rest. Li Qi and Fu Zhong don't know how many years they have to wait. Fortunately, they are both the same age.
Too big.
But at Mingsheng's age, it would definitely be impossible for him to wait for nearly ten years. In that case, the meaning of the marriage would be lost. Although the symbolic meaning of marriage is greater than the actual meaning, people cannot wait until they are nearly 30 years old to get married.
.
"Sisters, of course, there is no suitable one. Mingsheng is also a distinguished person. Why not choose someone from the Wuxun family to marry? It is more dignified after all."
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned slightly, this was a bit difficult to handle. Except for the most prominent families who did not dare to marry without permission, most of the rest had already made plans.
I think Tang He did have a daughter who was of marriageable age, but Tang He was commanding the Southern Army. How could he allow the commander of the first army to marry a local feudal official? This was either a matter of trust or not, or simply inappropriate.
"Since you said it, you must have an idea. Whose daughter is it? Tell me."
"I just heard from Luo Hua yesterday that the second sister in the family has passed her prime, but because Chang Mao's wedding date has not been decided yet, she never had time to discuss the marriage."
Zhu Yuanzhang's brows tightened: "Biao'er, the Chang family's kindness is a bit excessive. We know that your husband and wife are in harmony, and both Yu Chun and Chang Mao are trustworthy, but you have to understand that going too far is never equal."
Zhu Biao bowed slightly and said: "I understand, of course, but there is no younger sister of the right age among these sisters. If you want to show your confidence, you have to have a caring relationship with your son. If you are not a real sister, you can only be a wife sister."
"
"Isn't that girl a daughter of the Lan family?"
"The girl from the side room is not the royal palace's legitimate daughter, so I thought it was just right."
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly. The words of a concubine were not bad, and the kindness was not too exaggerated. You must know that Ming Sheng's sudden rise to a high position for no reason will definitely shock the government and the public. If he is lowered appropriately, it is not necessarily a bad thing.
Moreover, Sichuan is rich in resources and people, and is isolated by dangerous terrain. The officials who serve as feudal frontiers here are undoubtedly less restricted by the central government than those in other regions.
Liu Bowen could sit in such a position. No matter how much the emperor disliked him, he was the founding official of the Ming Dynasty, ranked as a marquis, the leader of the eastern Zhejiang line of the imperial court, and had disciples and former officials all over the state.
It is not easy for Mingsheng to take the position. It is not a secret that Liu Bowen often submits his resignation and begs for his body due to poor health. Many high-level officials inside and outside the capital are looking for opportunities.
The various factions are also competing. It is no joke to have one more official with real power in the frontier. Members of the entire faction will be able to speak straighter in the court.
If Ming Sheng is not properly arranged and is appointed directly like this, he will not be able to hold real power in Sichuan. The people below are dissatisfied and some find ways to restrict him so that his government orders cannot leave the government.
At that time, Mingsheng's identity as the former owner of Shu land not only could not help him, but would also become a reason for others to restrict him. The court also paid attention to human relations and sophistication. Without foundation, no help, no disciples and old officials, he could do it all by himself.
What's up?
What is real power? If you say something, everyone will follow it. But if there is no real power, if you say something, everyone will keep silent.
It does not mean that whoever Zhu Biao promotes to a first-grade official is really a first-grade official and can control the government with great dignity. Rank is just rank and does not necessarily mean actual power.
Just like Wang Guangyang in the past, what if the emperor appointed him as prime minister?
Without the support of the nobles of Huaixi, and without the help of capable disciples and old officials under his command, he was easily overthrown by Hu Weiyong and was demoted from the capital in despair.
Zhu Biao didn't want Mingsheng to be a face-saving person, nor did he want him to come back to the capital in despair, but for no reason, how could he get his subordinates in the East Palace to accept him like this.
Officials are not clay sculptures. They have their own ideas. The monarch can live and kill, but it is impossible to destroy their humanity. Loyalty always has a certain limit.
Wouldn’t the people at the East Palace Gate be greedy for such a big piece of fat?
You have always been diligent and loyal, but you thought you had something in your pocket but someone cut it off. How can you still accept it happily?
Zhu Biao asked himself, there are such people under his command, but the number is absolutely pitiful, and most of these people are not of high grade...
Therefore, we not only need to find another place to appease and compensate them, but also give them a level of understanding. Marriage is the simplest, most direct and most effective political declaration. He will marry his sister-in-law, the daughter of the Prince of Kaiping, to Ming Sheng.
That’s all I understand.
Only in this way can Mingsheng be accepted by the Huaixi clique and get the support of the East Palace party members, and can he really hope to secure his position in Sichuan Pingzhang's political affairs.
Both father and son knew what this meant. Zhu Yuanzhang was silent for a moment and said: "I hope this boy will not disappoint you."
Zhu Biao smiled casually and said: "What I really want to accomplish, it doesn't really matter how he does it. A living person has paved a smooth road. It's not like he can't even move forward."
Since the intention is for all countries, then such a person, a political benchmark, must exist. Mingsheng is just the most suitable identity and condition, and the success is the best. If he fails, Zhu Biao will change to another person and continue until he succeeds.
"Then make a decision early."
"After entrusting my mother, please ask Mingsheng's mother Peng to come to the palace to discuss it. The Chang family's son-in-law asked Luo Hua to ask his mother-in-law to inform him. In two days, he will ask the emperor to issue a decree for the marriage."
"Um."
………………
Mingsheng jumped out of the carriage outside the Marquis of Guiyi Mansion, and walked quickly into his home with a light step and a heavy step, as if a fire was burning in his heart. He wanted to vent his anger, but there was no one to complain to.
Ming Xia, Queen Mother Peng was sitting in the hall waiting, the handkerchief in her hand was about to be scattered. Her son was called into the palace by His Highness the Crown Prince. It was a good thing but it might also be a bad thing. Who can predict it.
Thinking about this, I can't help but feel sad. She used to be the mother of a country who listened to the government from behind the curtain, and her son was also a lonely king. Now that the country is broken, I am afraid that sooner or later, it will not end well. How can she have a face under the nine springs?
Go to see your husband.
"Madam, the Marquis is back."
Mrs. Peng hurriedly wiped the corners of her eyes, then stood up and walked out to greet her. Seeing her son's face flushed and stumbling towards him, her heart suddenly sank but she felt relieved, as if relieved.
This day has finally come.
From a distance, Mingsheng saw his mother hurriedly walking forward a little faster and saluting: "Mom, why are you out? It's windy outside. Come in quickly. My son has something to tell you."
Mrs. Peng took her son's hand and squeezed it tightly: "Okay, my mother will be there for everything."
The mother and son entered the house hand in hand, and after waiting for the mother to sit down and serving tea, Mingsheng dismissed the servants around him. As a marquis, he was able to retain some of the old people who served in the palace.
"Mother, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince summoned me with the intention of promoting a foreign minister, and I'm afraid you wouldn't have guessed where I am."
Mrs. Peng was surprised and could not recover for a moment, but the ant still managed to survive, so it would be best if he could survive: "This... the Crown Prince's kindness... No matter where you are, Sheng'er, you must do your best to do your job, and don't let the Emperor down."
kindness."
"Mother! We are in the middle of Shu. Your Highness is a son-in-law and will succeed Marquis Chengyi as the political minister of Pingzhang in Sichuan!"
Peng stood up in fright and said hurriedly: "Sheng'er, you are confused! How dare you agree to this? You should just refuse in every possible way. This... you go and beg His Highness to take back your life!"
From ancient times to the present, people like them have been extremely lucky to be able to survive and survive. There is no talk of returning to their hometown to take power. It is clearly a test of their mother and son's ambition to restore the country.
