My Daming New Empire

Chu Song also deliberately showed off in front of him, and picked out some of Ji Gang's actions in Dongying.

Finally, he said: "My lord, this Yang Zhangde is now deeply loved by the holy family. As long as you treat this knife well for His Highness, even if the sky is angry and people complain, you can stay away from overseas. With the help of this man, at least the life of the Li family is not like it is now." Are you so sad? Besides, if the Lord agrees to this condition, the Clan Mansion will return your property with a word from His Highness!"

Li Jinglong pondered for a long time and asked, "Why is it my Li family?"

Chu Song said solemnly again: "Your Highness once said that Cao Guogong's mansion was a first-class nobleman in Ming Dynasty, so it will naturally have a good end, and we must not let people think that my Zhu family is ungrateful."

Li Jinglong also bowed three times in the direction of the palace, and said with tears in his eyes: "If you can be missed by His Royal Highness, I will die without regret. Let alone a daughter of this old man, even if I take the life of my Li family, I will not be worthy of Your Highness's great kindness." .”

Of course, this was said to Chu Song. Although Li Jinglong was defeated like a mountain at the beginning, and he was defeated again and again, he was really not an incompetent person.

When Li Jinglong was young, he liked to read military books, and his manner was graceful, which was highly valued by Ming Taizu.After Hongwu attacked Cao Guogong in 19 years, he went to Huguang, Shaanxi, Henan and other places to train troops many times, and was also in charge of the tea-horse trade with Xifan, with outstanding achievements.

At a young age, he was in charge of the Governor's Mansion of the Left Army, and he was added as a prince and Taifu.

It's just that he was well-clothed and well-fed since he was a child, his life was smooth, his actual combat experience was too little, and his ability to make decisive battles was too poor, so he ended up like this in the end.

This is a typical arrangement for the wrong position. If he is allowed to be the principal of the military academy, he will definitely do better than anyone else.But when he was put into battle in battle, he became Zhao Kuo.

He also understood the meaning of Zhu Zhanji's arrangement, which was to use Cao Guogong's status among the nobles to support his cronies.At the same time, it can also borrow Shi En Cao Guogong's mansion to make the honorable class more loyal to the royal family.

Since this matter is beneficial and harmless to Duke Cao's mansion, he would be foolish if he didn't agree to it.

This may also be the only chance for Cao Guogong's mansion to rise again. If it is lost, such a beautiful thing may not necessarily happen.

At this time, he raised his voice and said to the old housekeeper Li Shou: "Take widow Qiao to the backyard to meet my wife, and tell me that I have arranged this marriage for Qing'er. Also, let the second master and the third master come over..."

As the head of the family, since Li Jinglong agreed to this marriage, no one would object to this marriage.

On the second day, Yang Zhangde cleansed his body, shaved his face, dressed up anew, and went to the door to propose marriage in person.

Although Yang Zhangde is a bit older, he is strong and powerful.What's more, he had never been married before, and only had two concubines in bed, and the family population was simple. The young girl of the Li family was a housewife in the past, and she was not restrained, so she was considered a good match.

Of course, Yang Zhangde didn't know that Zhu Zhanji was behind this incident. He only thought that he was very charming and Chu Song was eloquent, so that good things came true.

Because the emperor has ordered that the expedition to Japan will be imminent.Since Zhu Zhanji asked Yang Zhangde to get married before the expedition, the procedure for proposing marriage to Najib was kept simple.

Yang Zhangde was naturally very happy to have such a good marriage, and he took out all the savings he had saved for many years, and wanted to hold a lively wedding.

What he didn't expect was that although Duke Cao's mansion was dilapidated, most of the ancestral house had been sold.Only three yards were left, but the emaciated camels were bigger than the horses.

Although the Li family's property was confiscated, Duke Cao's mansion was originally a first-class honorable man in Ming Dynasty. He has received a lot of relief support over the years, and the house was only sold for Zhu Di to see.

It's a bit bitter, I'm so pitiful, so don't target me anymore.

He also knew that he thought he had to save his own Taishan family, but the married daughter of the Li family was still a legitimate daughter, and the dowry he gave was far beyond his imagination.

At least, not only will he not lose money this time, but he will also earn a lot from his marriage.

The only pity was that the Li family followed the rules, and although he had inquired many ways and praised the appearance and character of the prostitute daughter of the Li family, he had never seen it with his own eyes.

Marriage was proposed on the sixth day of February, engagement was made on the seventh day, and Najib was on the sixteenth. The wedding date was set on the second day of March.

Yang Zhangde has regarded wealth as his life these years, and he has actually accumulated a lot of family assets.Especially since walking by Zhu Zhanji's side, even if he is not greedy, he has gained a lot of money in the past two years.

Now that he has been honored as the Commander of Jinyiwei, Sai Hazhi is a good man, so naturally he will not offend him, a celebrity under his grandson, and sent many people to help him clean the house and buy a new house.

On the second day of March, Yang Zhangde brought two groups of envoys to welcome his relatives, one was Jinyiwei, and the other was the guard camp of Yulinwei who was related to him. They all rode tall horses borrowed from Taisun's stables, and they arrived at Cao Guogong in a mighty way. The government welcomes the relatives.

The wedding was not small, but it was not special either. After all, there were quite a few high-profile households in the capital, and there were not many who were bigger than his wedding.

However, before the wedding, Zhu Zhanji came to the door in person and presided over the wedding for Yang Zhangde, which made a big noise.

Now everyone knows that this Yang Zhangde is a member of His Royal Highness Taisun and a big celebrity.

Zhu Zhanji seldom attends such occasions except for those close relatives who are close to the royal family. Even if he does, he is at most only as a VIP.

Although Yang Zhangde is ruthless, he was really moved this time, as if he would die for his confidant.

Because of Zhu Zhanji's appearance, the number of people who went to the Yang's house to give gifts increased by at least [-]%. Until dark, there were still housekeepers and attendants who came to the Yang's house to give gifts, and they were tired of several paperwork for registering gifts.

After presiding over the wedding, it was already dark. Zhu Zhanji didn't even eat any food, but only drank two glasses of wine toasted by Yang Zhangde and the bride, and returned to the palace.

But at this time, the excitement of the Yang family had just begun.

As the groom's officer, Yang Zhangde naturally found a lot of colleagues in charge of drinking to deal with it for him today.

Once upon a time, as a poor boy who couldn't even eat enough when he was young, he never dreamed that he could marry the daughter of the Duke's family as his wife.

And although he couldn't see the bride's face, her graceful figure had already made his heart itch.

He needs to keep a clear head and taste this little beauty carefully.

"My lord, today's gifts are all in the east room, and my subordinates have also sent a few people to guard the east room, so that no one will fish in troubled waters."

Yang Zhangde took the two gift books, put them under his armpits, and cupped his fists and said, "Brothers have worked hard today, go and drink a few more glasses of wine, and tomorrow, I will treat you well."

"My lord, a moment of Chunxiao is worth a thousand gold, so I won't bother you anymore."

Several people handed over the gift book, and they went to the front yard and began to drink and exchange wine under the sound of drums and music.But Yang Zhangde came to the backyard contentedly with the gift book in his hand.

Although the Duke's Mansion was in decline, when the first daughter got married, she still married two little maids to serve her.The Yang family is not big. As soon as Yang Zhangde entered the backyard, one of the little girls saw him and said in a low voice, "Master is back."

Yang Zhangde saw that this little girl was also pretty, and became more and more satisfied with the marriage.If the bride is really as rumored, then he really has a good marriage.

He has Zhu Zhanji's care, and he doesn't expect his wife's family to be more powerful, but only hopes that his wife's family will be well-known, so that he can also enter the noble class.

If I get another cute little beauty, what more can I ask for!

After entering the room, I saw the bride still sitting in front of the couch, a little girl was waiting on her side, and the matchmaker, Widow Qiao, was waiting for him to come back and salute.

The bride's hijab was picked up with a scale. She had a small cherry mouth, a bright nose, a small face with melon seeds, and a pair of big watery eyes.

After finally waiting for Widow Qiao to arrange the salute and make the bed, he took out six silver coins and threw them into her hands, sending her and the little girl away.

Just finished drinking the wine, the bride's face was a little red, and she looked at Yang Zhangde's face full of shyness.

Yang Zhangde didn't know what to say for a while, after all, it was his first time getting married.

He handed the gift book on the table to his young wife, and said: "I lost my mother since I was young, and my father died young when I was an adult. There are only a few close relatives in the family, and the relationship is simple. I serve in front of His Royal Highness, Everything in the family will be left to you from now on."

The bride, Li Shi, whose boudoir name is Qing'er, is only this year, and she is quite satisfied with the imposing husband in front of her.She shyly said: "Marrying my husband, I will be a member of the Yang family from now on. From now on, husband and wife are one, and it is my duty to run a family. I dare not say it as a favor."

Yang Zhangde was even more satisfied when he heard that the bride's speech was clear and well-organized, and she was also fond of him.

He stretched out his hand to touch her small face with a smirk, and said with a smile, "Tonight is our day of great joy. A moment in spring is worth a thousand dollars. Let's not waste this beautiful moment."

Li Qing'er became more and more shy, but she still helped him undress with trembling hands. "The concubine waits on my husband to take off his clothes..."
