Chapter 366: Deadline for Recruitment
Liu Tuo left, Chang Gon put down the teacup, walked to the window with his hand, the name mentioned by Liu Tuo just now pierced his heart like a needle, that young man made him plant the biggest heel fight since he came out, so that he is still affected, Xinjun is obviously more cold to himself, and relies more on Han Rong.
The news revealed in the palace was because of his performance in the Guo Song case that Xinjun was disgusted, which made Chang Gon panic, he really didn't expect that the aftermath of that incident would be so serious, and it also made him regret it in his heart, and the Zhang family in Fengzhou made him miserable.
He is particularly sensitive to the name Guo Song, and now no one dares to mention this name in front of him, but yesterday he still saw this name on the appointment letter of the Ministry of War, and the Son of Heaven actually appointed him as the governor of Ganzhou, which really made his heart bleed, but this is not the first time.
A few months ago, when the first emperor announced the reward for the battle of the Central Plains, he mentioned Guo Song, because of his outstanding military achievements, he was named the prince of the county, and the doctor of Yinqing Guanglu, at that time, Chang Gon's heart was like being slashed hard, making him the laughing stock of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military affairs.
But just now, Liu Tuo obviously deliberately mentioned this name in front of him, as if he wanted to arouse his anger, but unfortunately Liu Tuo didn't know that Chang Gon not only hated the name Guo Song, but was more afraid, and this name made him jealous like a scorpion.
At this time, his staff member Xu Fangzheng put a document on his desk and said in a low voice: "Xiangguo, this is the second batch of draft appointment and dismissal lists of the Ministry of Officials. ”
"Sir, do you know which minister of the DPRK and China is going to get married recently?" Chang Gon asked suddenly.
Xu Fangzheng thought for a moment and said: "It seems that I have only heard recently that the new governor of Ganzhou, Guo Song, is going to get married, and others have not heard of it." ”
Chang Gon was stunned, he turned around and asked, "How do you know that Guo Song is going to get married?" ”
"Xiangguo, this matter has basically spread in the imperial court! The woman is the daughter of Xue Xun, the secretary of the provincial Shaoqing, a famous talented girl, a matchmaker made by Yan Xiangguo, Guo Lao Linggong asked for a kiss, I heard that even the Son of Heaven gave a generous gift, and the screen in the imperial study of the first emperor was rewarded to Guo Song. ”
Chang Gon's face twitched, this matter had been spread by the imperial court, but he didn't know it, he suddenly became vigilant in his heart, why didn't this Liu Tuo impeach Guo Song, but came to tell himself, did he plan to use himself?
"Just now, Taichangqing Liu Tuo came to me and said that Guo Song got married during the mourning period of the first emperor, and he was very rebellious, and suggested that I be impeached, what does Mr. think?"
Xu Fangzheng shook his head, "I'm afraid Liu Tuo is misleading Xiangguo and wants to use the contradiction between Xiangguo and Guo Song to achieve some of his own goals." ”
"Why do you say that he is misleading the old man?" Chang Gon asked puzzled.
"Xiangguo, Guo Song's marriage, Yan Xiangguo just started to be a matchmaker the day before yesterday, and it is still too early to get married, so I don't know when the wedding date will be set, what if the family is the Son of Heaven who will get married after the mourning period is over? And even the Son of Heaven sent a congratulatory gift, indicating that the Son of Heaven acquiesced in this matter, if Xiangguo took the liberty of impeachment, not only will it not have an effect, but it will give people a feeling of revenge for personal gain, making the Son of Heaven even more dissatisfied with Xiangguo, and suggesting that if the Son of Heaven doesn't care about this matter, then Xiangguo had better turn a blind eye. ”
Chang Gon suddenly became angry, "What does this Liu Tuo mean, does he have some grudge against Guo Song and actually want to use me?" ”
Xu Fangzheng thought for a while and said: "Liu Tuo may not have a conflict with Guo Song, but I am afraid that he has something to do with Xue Xun, he is from Jianzhou, and Xue Xun served as the governor of Jianzhou before, I don't know if something unpleasant happened to the Liu family and Xue Xun in Jianzhou, Liu Tuo is not good at finding trouble with Xue Xun, so he used Xiangguo to suppress Guo Song's marriage." ”
Chang Gon nodded, Xu Fang was analyzing it very well, he nodded, "I know!" ”
Xu Fangzheng hesitated and persuaded: "I still have to remind Xiangguo that the new monarch is now very dependent on Guo Song, so he appointed him as the governor of Ganzhou, whether he got married during the mourning period is really a trivial matter, Xiangguo wants to deal with him, you can wait until later, don't rush this time." ”
"Thanks for the reminder, I'll pay attention!"
"Humble resignation!"
Xu Fang saluted and retreated.
Chang Gon's heart was really uncomfortable, thinking that even Liu Tuo had to take advantage of the contradiction between himself and Guo Song, it was like 10,000 alpacas running through his heart, Guo Song simply became a nightmare in his fate, and the more Guo Song was reused, it meant that his phase was unstable.
........
After the name and Najib are over, the next step is to accept the levy and the invitation period, this step is more important, Guo Ying only officially came to the door seven days later, the levy is to give a gift of wealth, the Tang Dynasty paid attention to marrying, and marrying a wife generally has to send a relatively heavy gift, of course, this also depends on the situation of each family, the flat-headed people get married, send dozens of taels of silver or a dozen pieces of silk, it is almost enough, and the woman's family will not be too harsh.
But if a wealthy family gets married, he pays attention to the right family, and there is no financial gift of thousands of taels of silver, so he doesn't want to marry his wife into the door.
There is also a way to marry potential stocks, just like when Wang Zhongsi married his daughter to Yuan Zai, Yuan Zai's family was poor, but he was a science and technology scholar, Wang Zhongsi would rather marry his daughter to him, but unfortunately Wang Zhongsi still saw the wrong person.
In the afternoon, Guo Ying came to the door again, and Xue Xun also returned home early, he got the news yesterday that the Guo family would come to the door today to send financial gifts and agree on the marriage date.
Han is also looking forward to it, although some things can't be said too thoroughly, but everyone knows that this financial gift is a big income for the woman's family, Guo Song's family is very wealthy, and he is bold and generous, and the financial gift given will definitely not disappoint her.
"Come in this way, slow down!"
Guo Ying beckoned his entourage to carry more than a dozen boxes into the house, and he smiled and said to Xue Xun: "Give a gift today, and I hope that Xue Yuanjun will accept it with a smile!" ”
Xue Xun shook his head, he didn't know what to say, in fact, according to his character, it was best for the other party to send a good study of the four treasures, or famous calligraphy and paintings, and then send dozens of boxes of books, which was the most satisfactory gift for him, gold and silver, this kind of thing, was not what he really wanted, but.......
Xue Xun glanced at his wife next to him, and saw her eyes looking at these cages with burning eyes, which made Xue Xun sigh secretly, when his wife married him, it was not so worldly!
"Brother Guo Xian is too polite, please come in and sit down!"
Guo Ying handed over the list of financial gifts to the Han family, and said with a smile: "Things are more valuable, please ask my sister-in-law to arrange for someone to move to the backyard." ”
Han hurriedly agreed, "I'll arrange it, Uncle Guo please sit in the lobby!" ”
At this time, the Han family is anxious to see the financial gift, so let the husband decide the matter of the invitation!
She beckoned the maid and the servant to carry the cage into the back house, and as she walked, she looked at the list of gifts:
A full set of gold jewelry, including a crown of emerald gold and phoenix.
Two pairs of high-grade jade hairpins.
Ten golden flowers.
Ten pairs of high-grade white jade.
100 horses of fine lake silk.
Five hundred taels of gold.
A box of jewels and jade.
Wu Daozi, Yan Liben, and Zhang Xu each have one authentic handiwork.
Xuanyangfang has a three-acre house.
Han couldn't breathe when she saw it, and when she saw the last item, her eyes were dark, her body shook, and the housekeeper's wife, Jiang, was quick and helped her.
"Madame, it doesn't matter to you!"
Han patted her chest, her heart was about to explode with joy, isn't the three-acre mansion in Xuanyangfang the one she lives in now? Guo Song actually gave it to himself as a financial gift.
"I'm fine, I'm so happy, this house will be mine in the future, it's mine!"
Han was a little incoherent with excitement, and Jiang said with envy on his face: "This house is worth at least 30,000 yuan!" In this area, money may not be able to buy it, congratulations to Mrs. for getting a good son-in-law. ”
Han's mouth couldn't close with a smile, Guo Song was really a good son-in-law who couldn't be found with a lantern.
She looked at the gift again, she understood a little in her heart, it is estimated that there are many things for her daughter, in fact, although the Han family is a little worldly, she also really loves her daughter, except for a hundred horses of lake silk, five hundred taels of gold and a house, she is ready to give her daughter other things as a dowry.
With this mansion and five hundred taels of gold, she and her husband don't have to worry about it for the rest of their lives.
.........
In the guest hall, Guo Ying and Xue Xun were discussing the marriage date, Xue Xun said: "I suggest that it is best to put it in early February, although after the fifth day of January, the imperial court will no longer prohibit folk weddings, singing and dancing, etc., but I am worried that someone will use this matter to make a fuss, which is not good for Guo Song, and if it is placed in early February, there is basically no problem, what about Guo Xiandi's opinion?" ”
Guo Ying said with a smile: "I have asked Guo Song for his opinion, he and his brother have similar ideas, and January is the New Year, and it is connected with the Shangyuan Festival, every household is very busy, and it is indeed more appropriate to put it in early February." ”
"Then it is decided, the second day of the second month of February is an auspicious day, and the wedding and wedding are placed on this day."
"No problem, in addition, Guo Song said that he may leave for Ganzhou around the tenth day of the first month of February, and he hopes to take Ling Ai to Ganzhou to take up his post, I wonder if my brother can agree?"
Xue Xun smiled slightly, "That's not something I can decide, they decide for themselves, as long as it doesn't violate the imperial court system, I have no opinion." ”
Guo Ying took out the invitation letter and wrote on it the second day of the second month of February, and he and Xue Xun signed respectively, so the wedding date was officially set.
