Prince of Chaos

Chapter 265 Loyalty is Important

The idea of ​​attracting people to enrich the capital has already been mentioned to Shen Shihang. As for how Shen Shihang can persuade the cabinet, this is not a question Zhu Changluo has considered.

What Zhu Changluo wanted was the result. Of course, this matter couldn't be messed up, otherwise, Zhu Changluo didn't mind using Shen Shixing to sacrifice to the "people" of Tian'an.

In the cabinet, Zhu Changluo still listened from the sidelines as usual, and would not express any opinions. This is also the rule Zhu Changluo set for himself.

As for the conversation in the ear room at noon, that is another matter.Anyway, Zhu Changluo didn't get involved in the noisy cabinet.

After receiving Zhu Changluo's latest instructions, Shen Shixing suddenly felt a lot of pressure. This matter is indeed too difficult to handle.

However, the general situation in the capital is now moving forward. As the chief assistant, he can't stay out of it, and can only follow the general trend forward. This mighty trend was abandoned.

Shen Shixing, who considers himself young, is naturally unwilling to leave the center of the political stage like this. He also wants to witness the hope of Ming ZTE with his own eyes.

Therefore, he had to bite the bullet and get involved in this matter.

In the afternoon, Zhu Changluo left the cabinet and returned to his Ciqing Palace.

Now in Ciqing Palace, Zhong Huamin and Liu Qing, who is in charge of the princess's mansion, are waiting for him.

Now, everything is ready and only the east wind is owed.

It is imminent for the eldest princess to choose a marriage.

Because, next month, the eldest princess will officially hold the title ceremony.

According to the old rules, within a few months after receiving the official title, the princess will choose a son-in-law, get married and leave the palace, and live in the princess mansion bestowed by the emperor ever since.

After Zhu Changluo came back, Zhong Huamin and Liu Qing saluted together.

"Minister (slave) see Your Highness."

Zhu Changluo said, "Get up."

Then, Zhu Changluo asked again: "How is the eldest princess's affairs going?"

When Zhu Changluo asked this question, both Zhong Huamin and Liu Qing became embarrassed.

Because, according to Zhu Changluo's instructions, they also adjusted the scope of the princess's marriage selection.No matter if it was a noble family in central Beijing or a family that raised a scholar, they also screened them one by one.

However, when these great gentry heard that the princess was choosing a marriage, they were all afraid to avoid it, thinking that the emperor's daughter was a dominatrix.

Only some speculative families of merchants and families of small landlords who are not yet well-known come to join in the excitement of the princess's marriage selection, hoping to complete the class leap.

See, this situation.Zhong Huamin and Liu Qing are quite difficult to do, because these things are not what Zhu Changluo wants at all.Therefore, Zhong Huamin and Liu Qing really didn't know what to do.

After a while without hearing from Zhong Huamin and Liu Qing, Zhu Changluo frowned slightly and asked, "What's going on?"

At this moment, Liu Qing fell to his knees with a bang, "This slave is incompetent, this slave is a death penalty, please master punish me."

Seeing Liu Qing like this, Zhu Changluo ignored him. He looked directly at Zhong Huamin and asked, "What's going on?"

When Zhong Huamin heard Zhu Changluo asking himself directly, he could only bite the bullet and say, "Return to Your Highness, the princess's marriage selection was not smooth."

Zhu Changluo also knew it would go well, but he didn't expect it to be so difficult, it even gave Zhong Huamin a headache.

Zhu Changluo asked: "Tell me why it didn't go well."

Zhong Huamin said: "Your Highness, since the Emperor Yingzong, there are more concubines from the people in this dynasty, and the ancestral system of this dynasty is that foreign relatives are not allowed to participate in politics, so many scholarly families with ambitions in official careers will not marry the royal family, for fear My own family was classified as a group of relatives, thus losing the possibility of going further. So..."

Zhu Changluo chuckled: "The daughter of the emperor's family is so avoided? The ancestral system of this dynasty does not allow foreign relatives to interfere in politics, but the word "involvement in politics" is not used in such an expanded way. It is not in the center, not in charge of the military, where does it come from? The possibility of meddling in politics? Don’t these people think too highly of their abilities? Let’s make a big deal out of a molehill.”

Although Zhu Changluo said so, in the development of Daming for more than 200 years, being a son-in-law is indeed a career with no future.Except for some unreliable idle jobs granted by the emperor, no serious errands will be assigned to the son-in-law.Moreover, civil servants also despise these lucky people who are distinguished because of their expensiveness.

Therefore, gradually the emperor's daughter really became a girl that no one wanted in the Ariake generation.This phenomenon is unique in China's thousands of years of feudal monarchy.

Hearing Zhu Changluo's laughter, Zhong Huamin knew that Zhu Changluo was angry.Otherwise, he wouldn't be like this.

Zhong Huamin said: "The minister and Eunuch Liu have also screened out a few candidates, do you want to have a look at them, Your Highness?"

Zhu Changluo waved his hand and said: "I won't do the job of picking a general from a dwarf. I won't allow anyone to do it in the future. The eldest princess is my imperial sister, the eldest daughter of my father, and her status is noble. It goes without saying, how can you just settle down like this? You continue to choose, of course, don't focus all your attention on these so-called scholarly families. For example, there have been many young talents from innocent families in Xishan Huangzhuang in this palace. Jun emerged. Although they are not from a scholarly family or a rich family, at least they are a group of positive people. There is hope for such talents. It is not a task to choose a marriage for the eldest princess. It is the responsibility of this palace. This palace is responsible to the queen mother, but also to the imperial sister. I don't want to see the future life of the imperial sister, like the princesses before, withering secretly in this deep wall and red courtyard .Do you understand this?"

This time Zhu Changluo can be said to have made the point clear, his meaning and attitude are very clear.The marriage selection of the princess must not be perfunctory, and it must not be carried out in accordance with the so-called conventions.

Zhu Changluo changed the miserable lives of the princesses of Ming Dynasty, allowing them to truly live freely and live out the demeanor of the nobles and golden branches and jade leaves.

Only in this way can Zhu Changluo feel that he is worthy of his own conscience, worthy of the entrustment of Emperor Wanli and Queen Wang, and worthy of the future life of the eldest princess.

Although, they are all arranged marriages.However, Zhu Changluo still hopes that this arranged marriage can be chosen happily and hopefully.

As for the future, Zhu Changluo can't interfere now.However, at the current pass, Zhu Changluo will definitely strictly control the quality.

Otherwise, what should he do when he arrives at his own sister in two years?If you can't have a bowl of water, you will definitely be hated by the queen.

Such a result is not what Zhu Changluo wants to see.

Zhong Huamin and Liu Qing listened to Zhu Changluo's meaning, they looked at each other, and then bowed to Zhu Changluo again: "I understand that I will do my best to carry out your highness's wishes. I will definitely choose a personality for the princess. Good son-in-law."

Zhu Changluo looked at Zhong Huamin and Liu Qing, Zhu Changluo said: "Let's do it according to this idea? Try to get this matter done well."

Zhong Huamin bowed again: "I obey."

Then, Zhu Changluo kept Liu Qing to continue his lecture.

Zhu Changluo looked at Liu Qing and said, "Do you know why I chose you to be the eunuch in charge of the Princess Mansion?"

Liu Qing said excitedly: "It is the loyalty of the slave that the master saw, that's why he gave the slave this opportunity."

Zhu Changluo smiled and said: "That's right, loyalty is very important, and your ability to understand this shows that you haven't done anything in vain all these years."
