I am rich in martial arts, but choose culture to win

Room 201 of the B-size dormitory building is about to be full.

Chapter 319 The Second Marriage and the Legal Marriage Age

Dewu four years, February 1866, 2 AD.

A huge fleet is slowly sailing into the deep-water port in the hinterland of Xinjin.

The winding but wide and deep channel, as well as the dotted forts on both sides, seem to swear that this military port will never fall.

It has been half a year since he left Fengdu, and now Zhu Fugui finally understands what it means to return home like an arrow.

Although Yandang is theoretically his real hometown, Zhu Fugui's memory of it is very vague.

Since crossing over 3 years ago, he has struggled in this land, starting as a tribe son-in-law, and has laid down a large territory bit by bit.

Scenes of past events flashed in his mind, and the face of the rich and honored emperor, who had always been heartless, showed a sense of sadness.

"Your Majesty, Profile for..."

Xiaolan brought a wool coat and gently put it on him.

Those watery eyes were full of the tall and handsome shadow of this man.

Then naturally, Xiaolan snuggled up to his back.

Zhu Fugui turned his head, took her hand gently, and stuffed it into his arms.

I... just made a mistake that men all over the world will make...

It's not that Zhu Fugui never used the keyboard to attack Big Brother X, but in the end...

Don't say anything, brother is right!

Zhu Fugui reached out and pinched her red nose from the cold, and said: "During the period of Pingwo, thanks to you taking care of my daily life... Lan, when we go back, let's make up for the wedding, Mao Shaobao must agree .”

"It's up to His Majesty to decide..."

Mao Lilan's voice was like a mosquito, and a pair of white hands unconsciously grabbed Zhu Fugui's waist because of joy and nervousness.

Zhu Fugui gritted his teeth and said, "But you have to remember that you will always be Susu's younger sister, and you are insurmountable, do you understand?"

Mao Lilan nodded lightly and said: "It was my sister who encouraged me. Now that I can always be in the arms of the king, it's too late for me to thank her. How could I have any unreasonable thoughts?"

……

The matter with Mao Lilan is a matter of course, and Zhu Fugui, as a man, has nothing to twitch.

Originally a woman like jasper, she was brought into the harem to do housekeeping, sweep the house, repair faucets, and install light bulbs, which is also excellent.

The girl Yin Susu played with guns all day long, or wandered around with a puma on a leash, she really couldn't do such a thing.

So much so that Zhu Fugui often felt that something was missing in his Fugui Palace.

Most likely, Yin Susu herself had such a realization that she encouraged Mao Lilan to serve the emperor.

It is not in vain that Zhu Fugui prepared so many Qiong Yao novels for her.

It's a pity that Julie is still unwilling to enter the palace, but handles foreign trade for Zhu Fugui's internal funds.

Julie once wore a Christmas elk and said in the Bible that she hoped that Zhu Fugui would marry her home in the most glorious way.

This capitalist's lady just likes to play with the little bourgeois.

I don’t know what year and month it will be. Victoria can dance, Napoleon III can play the piano, and the Tsar and his little daughters can sing a Suzhou ditty. Such a wedding should be glorious enough, right?

Shaking his head, Zhu Fugui threw away such fanciful thoughts, but for some reason, a little girl with a runny nose, two missing front teeth, and crying for a long time after being robbed of sugar pills appeared in his mind.

Li Banban said that he still has a child relative by the West Lake.

Speaking of which, she is the real First Lady of Daming.

It's a pity that Zhu Fugui sent someone to investigate, and Master Zhixin and the little girl were no longer in the ancient temple of Jingci.

It is said that he went to join the army.

In these years, the city of Jiangsu and Zhejiang has changed the king's banner so quickly, I really don't know which army the fat monk has voted for.

Whether it was Huang Jinwen or Zuo Zongtang, or whether it was the Hunan Army, the Huai Army, or even the Nian Army, is unknown.

This is the case with people in troubled times. It is really difficult to verify the death of a fat monk and a little nun.

As for why Zhu Fugui thought that the little girl became a nun later...

Isn't this nonsense?

The monk's daughter is of course a nun!

Isn't that the case with Monk Bujie and Yilin?

Speaking of which, the eldest princess of my old uncle Chongzhen seems to have also become a nun. It seems that our old Zhu family and the nun have an indissoluble bond!

While thinking wildly, a huge military dock appeared in front of Zhu Fugui.

Qi Wenchang did not know when he was standing behind him. He bowed and said, "Marshal, the victory review ceremony after landing is ready!"

Zhu Fugui nodded: "Implement according to the plan!"

……

Ma Miyazaki did not expect to be so lucky.

Because of his young age and the fact that he was a Japanese who made great contributions in the war, he actually won the honor of presenting flowers to the sage and emperor.

The other flower girl who presented flowers was a representative of Westerners, Ivana who also just turned ten years old.

Early this morning, Ma Miyazaki waited on the pier of Tianjin Port with his two new roommates, Sha Jingfang and Shi Dingzhong.

But Ivana said with disgust: "I'm going to kiss Long Live's cheek in a while, you have to stay away, don't get in the way!"

Miyazaki has never seen a foreign girl before, so he instinctively wants to admit it.

But after thinking about it, I am already from Ming Dynasty, so what kind of foreigners are I afraid of?

And I have personally caught 20 foreign devils!

"Little hag, you are so spiritless, do you still want to kiss Lord Long Live? How dare you shout out your heart..."

"Hey, hey, keep your voice down..."

Ivana quickly covered Miyazaki's mouth with Li Fuming's hand, this little Japan is really cunning!

He actually threatened himself by using his weakness of being too innocent to confess to Long Live God.

But having said that, the fact of maturity is too long, I still have six years to become an adult!

Ivana stamped her foot in annoyance.

That's right, the legal age of adulthood in Ming Dynasty is now 16 years old.

The marriage and childbearing age advocated by the imperial court is also 16 years old.

To be honest, this age is a little bit younger.

However, from the perspective of the times, it is still relatively progressive.

Later generations of the United Nations Human Rights Commission recommended that the age of marriage should not be lower than 15 years old, but many places in India, Africa, and the Middle East are far from meeting this standard.

Even, in order to encourage births, Russia did not meet the standards.

Russian girls can marry and have children at the age of 14. Of course, there are very few Maomei who actually do so.

For another example, before 2018 in Japan, girls were able to marry and have children at the age of 16, but they were considered adults at the age of 20.

Of course, the current national policy of Ming Dynasty should also encourage childbirth, and at the same time increase the investment in medical insurance for prenatal and postnatal care.

In fact, women who immigrated from the Far East, whether they are Chinese girls or ethnic girls, are married at the age of thirteen or fourteen.

At that age, not to mention how much confidence you have, or how much ability you have to entrust your life to the right person, even giving birth is no less than going to hell, it is very dangerous.

However, if women are set to be 20 years old and men are 22 years old to get married, as in later generations of China, it is too unrealistic, and it is not conducive to rapid population growth.

This era is the best era for all races and nationalities to delineate their spheres of influence. The Ming Dynasty certainly needs a sufficient population to fill the still sparsely populated New World.

Therefore, 16 years old is a more reasonable age under balance.

Moreover, His Majesty Zhu Fugui himself also lost his virginity when he was 16 years old.

Chapter 320 Yan Yi Performance on the Parade Platform

Being poked at the sore spot, Ivana fell into negative energy and squatted on the side of the road to count ants.

Sha Jingfang secretly gave a thumbs up and said, "Brother Miyazaki, I didn't expect you to be able to defeat Ivanna in one sentence. You are really amazing!"

"Is there such a thing..."

Ma Miyazaki scratched his head, bowed 90 degrees, and said, "Speaking of which, I really didn't expect that my roommates would be you two seniors. Thank you for your care."

Sha Jingfang shook his head and said: "I heard that you are a battle hero, and it is right to take care of you!"

"correct……"

Ma Miyazaki seemed to have thought of something, and asked a little embarrassedly, "Hey, Sha Sang, I've actually been wanting to ask...why is your name Li Jingfang on the roster I saw at the counselor's side? ?”

"what?"

Sha Jingfang turned pale when he heard the words, quickly covered Miyazakima's mouth, and looked around carefully.

Fortunately, Ivana went to count ants, and Li Fuming went to buy popcorn, but no one noticed.

Sha Jingfang let out a long breath.

He clearly remembered that he had secretly changed his name on the Guozijian roster. Except for a few Hefei fellows who knew his true identity, no one should know that he was Dongxiang Li.

In fact, he himself almost forgot his surname Li.

After careful recollection, Sha Jingfang finally remembered that although he tampered with the roster of the Imperial College, he only missed a list of the preparatory class of the Imperial College that year, which is now the list of the Imperial College preparatory course!

Of course, Sha Jingfang and these are all self-righteous cleverness.

The supervisors of the Guozijian are disciples of the Son of Heaven, and each of them is like the first-year students of Huangpu in later generations.

The identity of Sha Jingfang, at the beginning, Daming did not expect that Li Hongzhang would send the nominal eldest son, so he did not investigate it, but now a year and a half has passed, and his innocence has long been clearly identified up.

However, Sha Jingfang himself is still unknown, and he thought that the "bad elements" of his ancestors were well covered up.

Faced with Miyazaki's doubts, he rolled his eyes and said in a positive tone: "I changed my surname to Sha to show my determination to go to the battlefield and kill Hulu, and to remind myself all the time!"

In order to enhance persuasiveness, Sha Jingfang also used the examples of two famous generals: "Do you know Admiral Wang Zhonghuang?"

Wang Zhonghuang was not actually an admiral, and he would not call a high-ranking army official a general, or call a high-ranking navy official an admiral, which is considered a folk tradition.

Ma Miyazaki naturally knew Wang Zhonghuang, and his deeds were tested in the first question of the naturalization exam a while ago.

Ma Miyazaki remembers that "Naturalization in Three Years and Naturalization in Five Years" records that Admiral Wang Zhonghuang, who was still an ordinary soldier, stood on the Dingyuan ship and pulled the trigger when he attacked Bremerton, which is now Xinjin. , fired the first shot.

Seeing him nodding, Sha Jingfang hurriedly said: "Do you know what Admiral Wang's original name was? His original name was actually Wang Goudan, and he changed his name to Wang Zhonghuang in order to express his loyalty to Long Live Lord."

"There is also another navy admiral, Morishita. In fact, his surname is not Morishita, but Morishita Noichiro. He changed his name after a trip to Yunnan..."

Listening to Sha Jingfang's revelation, while recalling the glorious name in the review materials, Miyazaki yearned very much.

Although he made great achievements in Japan, he actually only met Mo Bai, a high-ranking official, and even ate a piece of candy from him, which has been sweet to this day.

And Senior Sha actually knew so many secret things, and he didn't expect so many great heroes to have changed their names!

Miyazaki nodded again and again: "I understand, senior, you changed your surname because you see the good and think like others?"

Sha Jingfang laughed loudly, and said: "That's right, that's it, you have to keep this matter a secret for me, I don't like high-profile people, I just like to work secretly and faithfully!"

"Hi!"

Miyazaki nodded heavily and said, "Senior, you are my role model!"

"Actually, I have already changed my name once, but now it seems that my loyalty is far from enough. I decided to learn from you and change my surname too!"

"From now on, please call me Shazakima. I, Shazakima, must grow into a pillar useful to the empire!"

……

This is already the third military parade that Zhu Fugui has participated in in the past six months.

Before leaving to return to the headquarters of the Ming Dynasty, the Royal Army of the Ming Dynasty also held a military parade in Edo.

Since it was finally winter, the Royal Army of the Ming Dynasty found a group of big men with a height of 1.8 meters and 1.7 meters and above, and their German stick suits were very impressive.
