Datang: Only by resisting the decree can we become stronger

After today's morning court, the members of the Zheng family couldn't help but sigh in their hearts.

In today's battle against the samurai Xun, it can be regarded as winning face and losing Lizi.

On the surface, it seemed that the samurai Xun had been sued, and he was dismissed from the position of minister of the Ministry of Industry.

But in fact, he has changed from a famous and powerless Minister of the Ministry of Industry to the governor of a state and the official of the frontier.

This is an official position that most people can't even ask for.

The only consolation is that this time the warrior Xun was successfully expelled from the capital, so that he would not often see him with troubled eyes in the future.

But in Ying Guogong's mansion, regarding today's situation, Samurai Xun felt sad and had mixed feelings.

In fact, he was born as a merchant, and he is not too keen on the desire for power.

And in terms of net worth, their martial arts family can definitely be regarded as rich and powerful.

Compared with the governor of Jingzhou, he prefers to dawdle in Chang'an City.

Of course, he is also very happy to be a great official in the frontier.

It is also a great honor for the family.

Among them, the two happiest members of the Wu family are naturally Wu Yuanqing and Wu Yuanshuang brothers.

There is a world of difference between the son of the minister of the Ministry of Industry and the son of the chief official of the frontier.

In the past, they could only be called dudes.

Moreover, there are a lot of dandies in Chang'an City, and they are everywhere.

But now, they are the real yamen.

What if it reaches the boundary of Jingzhou?

Their Lao Tzu is a feudal official in full control of the military and government, who can see that they are not respectful and flattering?

Wouldn't that be cool to death? !

And this news was undoubtedly the heaviest blow to Wu Jue.

She is 14 years old this year. At that time, in order to encourage childbearing and population reproduction, the legal age for marriage given by the government was fifteen for males and thirteen for females.

If you are over the age, you will be severely punished, and you may even be betrothed to a family directly.

Relying on her father's favor, she has already surpassed the line.

Now my father has been transferred to the governor of Jingzhou, and the matter is urgent, so he will go to the post immediately.

So what should she do?

When Wu Sui was weeping anxiously in the room, Li Qiu also heard the news and arrived in time.

At this time, the warrior Xun also anxiously pulled Li Qiu into his study.

"Hey, Zheng's scumbags are really not a good thing!"

"Before you came, I have been thinking here for a long time."

"There is no other way right now, just let Wu Jue go through the door today."

"Rush is a bit hasty, but as you and Kexin girl said last time, there is no need to make so many rules in our own family."

"As long as you children can get along well and you can love this girl well, I will be content."

"Anyway, it's still a concubine's room. There are not so many requirements. It should be simple and simple."

Listening to what the warrior Xun said, Wu Jue beside him also had tears in his eyes, looking at Li Qiu pitifully.

She agrees with her father's opinion in her heart, as long as she can pass the door smoothly, she doesn't ask too much for other things.

I'm afraid that nights will be long and dreamy, if she fails to marry Li Qiu, then her life will be completely dark.

At this time, Li Qiu sighed softly, "Uncle, when did the official department ask you to take up your post?"

The warrior Xun frowned and said, "Tomorrow morning."

"Not even a day's delay."

"After the court this morning, I also specifically asked Mr. Sun, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and he also received the emperor's intention."

"The former governor of Jingzhou is suspected of rebellion. The matter is of great importance and there is no delay."

At this time, Li Qiu frowned, and then glanced outside.

"Uncle, it's already afternoon now."

"It must be too late to marry Wu Sui."

"I can't let Miss Wu Jue and I suffer such a big grievance."

"It seems that I can only wait until next year's New Year's Day when my uncle returns to Chang'an, and then I will marry Miss Wu Sui."

"As for the issue of [-] men and [-] women, leave it to me to solve!"

After speaking, Li Qiu took Wu Jue and rushed to Wei Zheng's residence together.

When he saw Li Qiu and Wu Jue coming, Wei Zheng was also extremely happy and invited them in.

Then he hurriedly ordered people to prepare a banquet, to treat the two of them well.

But at this time, Li Qiu sat there, and talked about the situation of the warrior Xun and Wu Jue.

At the same time, he also said that if you don't help me solve this matter, then I will sit at your house and never leave!

He was playing around, while Wu Jue on the side was constantly wiping tears with red eyes, which was pitiful.

The two of them, one with a white face and the other with a red face, really stumped Wei Zheng.

Wei Zheng couldn't laugh or cry.

Afterwards, he comforted Wu Jue.

Say don't cry first, isn't it just such a small thing?it's not a big deal!

At the same time, he also ordered people to invite Prime Minister Wang Gui, as well as Huangmen servant Wei Ting and general Feng Li.

Just say that Li Qiu is here and ask them to come over for a drink...

Dear readers and fairies, Happy Mid-Autumn Festival!

During the double festival period, the author who also returned to his hometown will try his best to maintain stable updates.If there is any instability in time, please forgive me.

Chapter 224

As soon as they heard that Li Qiu had come to Wei Zheng's place to drink, Wang Gui, Wei Ting, Feng Li and others stopped what they were doing.

They all rushed over.

As soon as I got here, I was very surprised to see the scene in front of me.

Then he asked, "Huh? Xuan Cheng."

"What are you talking about?"

"Look at Li Qiu and Miss Wu Sui, how did you make it like this?"

Hearing Wang Gui's words, Wei Zheng almost vomited blood.

"Oh, just Li Qiu, what kind of eloquence do I need to describe him like this?"

"Furthermore, I have nothing to say, what is Miss Wu Jue doing?!"

Afterwards, he also talked about the current troubles of Li Qiu and Wu Jue.

When Wang Gui heard this, he couldn't help smiling.

"Li Qiu, if you ask someone else for this matter, it will be as difficult as reaching the sky."

"But you came to find me and Xuan Cheng, so it's really not a difficult matter."

Upon hearing Wang Gui's confident, calm and confident words, Li Qiu's eyes lit up, and Wu Jue raised his head full of expectation.

But this Wang Gui was slowly whetting his appetite.

Smiling to Wei Zheng, Wei Ting and the others said, "However, Li Qiu is a stingy kid at ordinary times."

"And there are a lot of good things about me."

"You said this time we can't help him in vain, right?"

Hearing his words, Wei Zheng, Wei Ting and others nodded one after another.

"Exactly, exactly!"

"This favor can't be done in vain, I have to let this kid bring out some good things."

At this moment, Li Qiu smiled wryly and bowed to everyone, "My lords!"

"Seeing that Wu Jue will leave Chang'an for Jingzhou tomorrow."

"I don't want to wait at this time!"

"Every time I delay for a moment, I feel uneasy in my heart."

"As for the thanks, that's what it should be."

"During the New Year's Eve, I also earned a lot of money for writing Spring Festival couplets."

"How about sending a few gold bars to each of your homes?"

Before he finished speaking, Wang Gui, Wei Zheng and the others immediately blew their beards and stared.

"Hey, do you think the rest of us are like you, who can't walk when we see gold?"

"It's so vulgar!"

"Why not."

"The last time your kid made a playful song, it was pretty good."

"High mountains and flowing water, heroic and free and easy, there is a kind of artistic conception of being hidden in the world."

"But after that, there is no second song from your kid."

"If you don't squeeze you, it will really waste all your talent."

"Then today, we will help you solve the age problem of Miss Wu Jue, and you will make another song in return."

"How about you?"

For this request, Li Qiu naturally had to agree.

So he nodded decisively.

"Then it's settled."

"But I said, Mr. Wang, Mr. Wei, are you going to go to the Ministry of Household Affairs, and then with a swipe of a pen, change Wu Jue's name one or two years younger?"

"If this is the case, although the reasoning is acceptable, those people in Chang'an City cannot be fooled..."

Before he finished speaking, Wang Gui was so angry that he almost wanted to slap him on the head, "You kid, you are even lazy and naughty."

"How can we, the dignified prime minister, do such a despicable and off-putting thing?"

"Xuan Cheng, let's go, you and I will go back to the imperial city now and take care of him."

"Li Qiu, when we come back, we will hear about your new work during the banquet!"

"You have to hurry up!"

After speaking, Wang Gui, Wei Zheng, and Wei Ting went out again.

After waiting for about an hour, Wang Gui, Wei Zheng and the others were quite proud, and returned to the mansion with their beards stroked.

Then he showed Li Qiu and Wu Jue a decree drafted by Menxia Province and issued by Shangshu Province.

I saw that it roughly said that in order to appease the people to rest and recuperate, from now on, the marriageable age of [-] for men and [-] for women will be changed to [-] for men and [-] for women.

At this time, Wang Gui and Wei Zheng both laughed.

"Li Qiu, how about taking a look?"

"You don't have to worry about anything this time, do you?"

At that age when wars were frequent and the population was declining, all dynasties and generations wished to have more children and forced people to reproduce.
