Let's say that when the Southeast Mansion was intensively preparing for the 100-day banquet of the twins with the golden spoon, a distinguished guest came to the door!

Chen Xinji smiled and accompanied a rare guest, but it was Zou Weilian, the governor of Fujian.

Zou Weilian had a modest attitude, crossed the sea to Kaohsiung, and although he wore official robes when he went ashore, he did not fight the honor guard of the feudal officials, did not show off, and let the carriage of the southeast government take over, and the musketeers escorted him.

Since he knew what he did, Yan Changwu also gave him enough face, opened the middle door, gathered all the generals and ministers, and welcomed the arrival of Governor Zou.

Preparations were made in advance, incense was placed in the lobby, sandalwood was lit, and the military and political elites in the southeast gathered to watch the ceremony.

Zou Weilian came in with a few people, three trays, one with a golden holy decree, a large plate holding a stack of clothes, and a jade belt, and the third plate was a jade seal, he stood on the head, facing the lobby door, Yan Changwu was opposite him, and the two were standing across the incense case!

"There is a will, Southeast Boyan Changwu will take the order!" Zou Weilian said.

"The minister Yan Changwu takes the order!" Yan Changwu said, just bowed, but did not kneel, and Zou Weilian did not care.

Zou Weilian read out the will, and a lot of words came out, and very few people understood it, all of them were blank-eyed, including the guy who received the order!

Governor Zou sighed secretly in his heart and said the general meaning, that is, because of the meritorious service of the Southeast Army in the Ningyuan front, the imperial court specially named him the Marquis of the Southeast, and gave him a python suit, a jade belt, and a jade seal.

That is to say, Yan Changwu's twin sons, who have just come to the world not long ago, have already eaten the position of the second-rank general of the Ming Dynasty!

How many people have worked hard all their lives, but they are not as good as this pair of children who have risen to the top in an instant.

"Congratulations, Nannan Hou!" Zou Weilian said, he couldn't help but be jealous of this kid.

Young age, you are a marquis, you can make decisions on your own, authoritarian for your own use, you don't need to listen to the orders of the court at all, and there are 100,000 soldiers, millions of people, hundreds of warships, rich in the world, super life winners, looking at the Ming Dynasty, no one can match.

"Chang Wu has thanked the Holy Grace!" Yan Changwu said, took over the will, went to the back hall to change into a python suit, and appeared in a brand-new official robe and a jade belt.

The python costume is a gift from the emperor to the meritorious ministers of civil and military affairs, the king of the subject country, and the tribal leader. The body is decorated with python patterns and is called python clothing or python robe, python clothing. The python pattern is similar to the dragon pattern, the difference is that the dragon has five claws and the python has four claws.

It is a kind of emperor's clothing, and a jade belt is worn when wearing a python robe. The python robe is similar to the dragon gon suit worn by the emperor, which is not among the official clothes, but the clothes of the eunuchs and eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty who were rewarded by the grace. It is considered a great honor to receive such a gift.

Everyone in the Southeast Mansion congratulated: "Congratulations to Master Hou!" Although the official position of the Ming Dynasty is not valuable in the southeast mansion, everyone thinks that it is not bad to add a Ming Dynasty official position to themselves in the family genealogy in the future, and no one will think that they have many official positions, just like the officials always resolutely support the establishment of new institutions by leaders.

However, after Zou Weilian was invited to the hotel to rest, the smile on Yan Changwu's face disappeared, and he went back to the back hall to change into a military uniform!

He said to everyone, "I think I'm a playwright when I wear those things!" Can you do things in that way? I need people who do practical things, not people who talk about things! ”

One sentence shows the attitude, and no one dares to say who is the official of the Ming Dynasty.

Yan Changwu didn't pay much attention to the matter of everyone conferring the official position of Daming, just asked Chen Xinji to fill it in!

He returned to the back house, talked to his wife Yang Ying'er about the holy decree, and handed the holy decree to Yang Ying'er and said, "Ah, take it and see if you can read it!" ”

This is the Holy Decree!

Others enshrine it at home, so that it can be protected, and women are not allowed to touch it, but in the Yan family, the jade seal of the Hou Ye is used as a toy for the child.

Then he heard Yang Ying'er read those difficult classical Chinese very well, but he didn't know whether it was right or wrong, so he had to say whimfully: "I don't read much, don't lie to me!" ”

After reading it, Yang Ying'er said with a straight face: "Wu'er doesn't eat Mingsu!" ”

Yan Changwu woke up suddenly, well, the hypocrites of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty didn't come to the yin, and they actually loaded slingshots for labor and management!

If his two sons become ministers, they will rebel in the future, and they will be subordinate to the king, and they will have no righteous name.

"According to Madame's opinion, how should we respond to the court's intentions?" Yan Changwu asked.

"You can let the child be young, don't know his virtue, don't set up a son for the time being, and at the same time, don't hold an official position, so as not to fold the blessings, and wait until the child is older!" Yang Ying'er suggested that this was a delaying tactic.

Look, Yang Ying'er is a female streamer, but she is familiar with the golden mean, she must not offend the Ming Dynasty, and give the other party a step, compared to the clear stream of the Ming Dynasty, who are rich and rich, they often tear their faces, shout and kill, I don't know where Gao Ming has gone.

"Madame Takami!" Yan Changwu stretched out his thumb and praised: "Come, reward one!" ”

Oh, beautiful and wise lady, let's do it!

Yang Yinger was hugged into the room by her husband......

……

Moreover, Chen Xinji went to the hotel to see Zou Weilian and gave him a list, which was the list of ministers and military generals of the southeast government, which was filled in by Chen Xinji himself, and was approved without careful consideration and collective discussion.

He didn't care, Zou Weilian also flipped through it casually and put it away.

Then Chen Xinji talked about the establishment of the prince and the shadow of the son (the establishment of the general), and politely declined.

He said to Zou Weilian: "We understand the good intentions of the court, but the child is still young, if he receives the court award, I am afraid that he will lose his blessings!" ”

"The two children of my family overseers have not yet been officially named, and have taken the nicknames 'Husky' and 'Samoyed'." Chen Xinji said with a smile.

"What's the name?" Zou Weilian was puzzled.

"My family overseer, pedantic, said that there are three kinds of sled dogs in the far north that serve humans, known as the three fools of sledding, of which the Alaskan sled dog is the big fool, the husky is the second fool, the Samoyed three fools, do not take the name of the boss, take the second fool, the third fool, the eldest son is the husky, the younger son is the Samoyed."

As a result, the two brothers who will be unspeakably expensive in the future are the second fool and the third fool respectively!

In ancient China, whether you are a prince or a common man, nicknames are based on the principle of slang and ugliness, such as the son of Confucius named "Li", Sima Xiangru nicknamed "Dog", Gu Kaizhi nicknamed "Tiger Head", Tao Yuanming nicknamed "Xigou", Wang Anshi nicknamed "Badger Lang", Song Xiaozong nicknamed "Little Lamb", Tang Gaozong nicknamed "Pheasant Slave" and so on.

The reason is mainly that the elders love and pity the children, but they are afraid that they will not grow up smoothly and healthily, so they deliberately mark the lowly, and use the rebellious way to cover up the intimate and enthusiastic feelings, according to legend, so that the children can grow up safely and avoid the ghosts asking for their lives (the name is too cheap, the demons are too lazy to care, they are looking for big goals). As a result, the custom of giving nicknames has been formed in the Han and Wei dynasties, and it has influenced it to this day.

How can such a stupid dog name reach the heavens! Zou Weilian had no choice but to go back to the mainland to reply to the decree.

……

Although he was made a marquis by the Ming Dynasty, Yan Changwu did not celebrate at all, and even brought those officials who got the official position of the Ming Dynasty, and some did not even know that they had such a position!

After Zou Weilian left, seeing that the 100-day banquet was getting closer and closer, the people sprinkled and swept the court, decorated the streets, and celebrated like a festival, preparing for big congratulations.

At this time, someone in front of the Overseer's Mansion actually came to visit in filial piety clothes!
