This situation is very complicated and ambiguous, for them, the best choice is to be cautious, Li Xiangqian doesn't want to be labeled as a Lolita because of this kind of thing, for the sake of the peace of the house, he must leave the position of his wife, so he must deal with the old man in front of him, at least, he can't make trouble.

Ma Shiying had a leisurely expression, he seemed to be very dissatisfied, he looked at Li Xiangqian, and said: "It's a pity that the matter has come to this, the old man carefully thought about the situation at the time, and also knew that your elder was indeed unintentional, but the name of the little girl was already like this." ”

Li Xiangqian looked indifferent, and said: "At this time, it is still in a very small range, at least in the imperial capital, only you and me, Miss Zhao and Ling Yan know about it, as long as we remain silent, presumably Ma Lao will not talk nonsense to the outside world, right." ”

Ma Shiying suddenly said: "How can this work, the little girl has already been seen by Mr., Mr. is also the court, so naturally he should also have some responsibility, and in the future, Ma also needs Mr. to take care of it in the imperial capital." ”

Li Xiangqian suddenly thought, this is an offer.

Therefore, according to old legends, in fact, Chinese women still have some say in their own marriage, it must be that the legendary hero saves the beauty, after the young man came out to save the heroine, the heroine made a wish in front of her parents and said, the reason is to repay the young man with her body.

But, however, if the young man looks very sorry, it is, "The daughter does not marry, but only wants to follow her parents for the rest of her life." ”

If you don't want this matter to be spread out, Ma Shiying should understand that her group of people are people who do things, not gossip gossip, and they will definitely not spread it at will, and after going back, his daughter can marry at will.

But these few sentences are interesting, Ma Shiying meant, since his daughter was looked down on by him, he simply married himself, and he could be regarded as finding a helper in the imperial capital.

By the way, Ma Shiying is also fifty-five years old, so Ma Suer's age, no matter how you look at it, is not born to a wife, that is to say, the daughter born to a concubine, this is not too surprising and worthless.

sighed with emotion, Ma Shiying used her daughter as a bargaining chip to reap benefits in the new dynasty, but Li Xiangqian was not disgusted, after all, this is also an open bargain.

Li Xiangqian smiled and said: "It seems that you still don't know much about our system, we have a special person to deal with small matters internally, and we only vote for big things, and I am only one of the 315 votes, which is very powerless." ”

Ma Shiying imagined that it was indeed not small, but thinking of the attitude of the man in front of him, he said: "Military Commission? ”

Li Xiangqian said: "With the military power in hand, naturally I don't dare to communicate with the local officials, otherwise, you should leave me a way to live." ”

Of course, basically no one among the elders is interested in the so-called military power, at least until they extend their influence to the outside world, the army under the rule of the Council of Elders is just a design at the level of the armed police, and it can be a good place.

Ma Shiying seemed to sense something, and said: "Although the little girl is young, she is still very well-behaved, and she has the ability to adapt to emergencies, so she will definitely become a virtuous helper for the elders." ”

Li Xiangqian rubbed his nose, the person in front of him was the governor of Fengyang, and he was more or less a person with the military power of a province in his hands, how could he sell his daughter as if he couldn't marry anything?

Even if it is for the sake of "erecting a benchmark", even if Ma Shiying has any violations of law and discipline for the time being, this Ma Shiying must have a protection period for the time being, after all, he is buying a horse with a thousand dollars, for fear that the princes in other places will have any ideas, and he must protect this guy.

So, although Ma Shiying may be very uneasy, in fact, this old man is very safe.

"Ma Lao, we are a group of people who talk about rules, the reason why we talk about rules is to do what we say, since we have said it, we will let you go back to Fengyang, we will let you go back to Fengyang, so, is there anything else you want."

Ma Shiying wanted to speak and stopped, but still said: "The old man has to come, your people are holding my daughter, and the spaceship is also walking back and forth in the sky every day, and I can be taken down at any time, so I have to come." ”

"Hehe, misunderstanding." Li Xiangxin said that you must have a big stick in your hand and warm words in your throat, so that you are willing to be obedient.

Ma Shiying said: "This land of Fengyang, and even the land of the ancestors of the Ming Dynasty, is definitely not something that I can monopolize, I don't know how your people will deal with the little old man in the future." ”

Li Xiangqian thought for a while and said, "The governor is the second grade." ”

Ma Shiying said quietly: "Exactly." ”

Li Xiangqian said: "How much money you spent on running for official duties back then still needs to be repaid to that Ruan Dacheng." ”

Ma Shiying pondered for a while and said, "I ...... Ruan and I."

Li Xiangqian said: "This kind of matter of the previous dynasty is not our business. ”

Ma Shiying breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Actually, Brother Ruan Shige has always had a green ambition, which can't be said that he has any bad intentions. ”

Li Xiangqian thought for a while and said: "It's not about this, in this world, there should be certain rules, those who abide by the rules will be rewarded, and those who don't follow the rules will be beaten, this is the normal direction of the world, otherwise, it will be all messed up." ”

Ma Shiying lowered his head and thought about it, and said, "Yes." ”

Li Xiangqian looked at the atmosphere a little badly, and said: "By the way, where is it, your next work arrangement, well, my opinion, it is still more democratic, um." ”

Ma Shiying's eyes flickered, as an official, who doesn't want to be promoted to the next level, but if you are the governor, if you climb up, you are doing things in the central government, and before, all the power in this imperial capital was completely in the hands of these young people in the imperial capital.

Li Xiangqian suddenly said, "Do you want to come to the imperial capital to do things?" ”

Ma Shiying looked at it for a while, and just wanted to nod, but saw this person and said: "In this way, I think I will give you some security guarantees, as for the rest, what do you think about the expansion of the territory, recently, if you know, I knocked down North Korea a few days ago." ”

Ma Shiying frowned and said: "Chicken ribs, the food is tasteless, it is a pity to abandon it, North Korea has never been a place where it can be produced well." ”

Li Xiangqian can communicate with Ma Shiying well, because the first thing he thinks of is benefits.

"It is true that according to the original way of management, North Korea is very poor, and basically only some people can enjoy a normal life, which is the reason for the classification of the fourth class, but with us, plus many things, it is still no problem to maintain a food and clothing, but if I still want to make some moves against Japan, an old man with some experience and old age is very much needed."

Playing Japan, Ma Shiying felt that he couldn't keep up with the train of thought of these young people, and said: "You want Japan too? ”

Li Xiangqian shook his head and said: "Japan's words, it may not necessarily be really fought, there are some information, I will have a chance to show you in the future, then, I want to think about it, what kind of security guarantee will be given to you, do you think you can go back to Fengyang safely and securely." ”

Ma Shiying must go, he must go back to Fengyang, so as to express the attitude of the Council of Elders to treat everyone equally, and to protect the interests of powerful factions everywhere, even if these people are grasshoppers after the autumn, sooner or later they will be liquidated, but in the short term, they must do a good job.

Ma Shiying doesn't seem to have met such a direct one, without saying any high-sounding words, he kicked the problem and the ball back, he is dozens of years old, where did he go through this kind of thing?

"The matter...... should also think about it in the long run, the old man is not distrustful of the nobles, but there is a guarantee, and it is easy to explain to his subordinates. ”

Li Xiangqian seemed to have a sad face, and said: "China's thousand-year-old rules have been broken by Zhu Yuanzhang, and even the person who took the Danshu iron coupon, that is, the gold medal for avoiding death, finally hung up, although I didn't move your mind, but how to do it to make you believe in my sincerity?" ”

Ma Shiying is also there, indeed, what about the gold medal for avoiding death, wasn't he killed by Zhu Yuanzhang? I don't know why, but this feeling of fate in other people's hands seems terrible.

Ma Shiying was not used to being so straightforward, but she also said helplessly: "But that's it, it's hard to say that it's useless." ”

Li Xiangqian sighed secretly, this Ming Dynasty has reached this time, it is really difficult to return, and there are no tools and tokens to seek mutual trust, no matter how miserable Europa is, the monarchies are already about to sign the Westphalian Treaty, at least in terms of face, they have guaranteed their respective interests, although they are still filthy in private, but at least they are forced on the surface.

"Well, how about marrying Ling Xu to the crown prince? Although he will not be allowed to ascend the throne, an honorary position will still be given to him in the future, which can be regarded as a perfect security guarantee, how about it? ”

"This ......" Ma Shiying was a little secretly entangled, he also knew the future fate of the crown prince Zhu Cihong, he would not die, and it was better than the fate of Emperor Han Xian to become the Duke of Shanyang, but the title of honor has shown that his life can be seen to the end, that is, he has to eat a little money in life, but he has to be frightened, for fear of being abolished as a target for unstable elements.

Let her daughter marry such a person, unless her brain is in water, or she is a small family and wants to ask for food, clothing, and clothing, otherwise, who would sacrifice like this, although Ma Shiying is loyal to the Ming Dynasty, she will not do such a stupid thing, after all, the one who occupies the imperial capital, since it is not a Jurchen who drinks blood, then there is a discussion.

He can't say, I see that Zhu Cihong has no power and power, and I don't want my daughter to marry, in fact, in the future, Zhu Cihong's marriage problem is worth a small meeting for the elders to worry about, and those who dare to marry their daughter to Zhu Cihong must be absolute loyal ministers of the Ming Dynasty.

Gritting her teeth, Ma Shiying suddenly said: "Actually, the little girl is very fond of the general, and she herself wants to marry the general." ”

"Ah," Li Xiangqian narrowed his eyes and said, "How old is she." ”

Ma Shiying hurriedly said: "It will be thirteen in autumn this year, and it is time to arrange a marriage." ”

"Why do you like me?" He is not a miserable silk, and he can't say that he is not accompanied by a woman, but in the 21st century, those who can soak such a small Lori are either classmates, or they are really rich and powerful and can ignore the law on the protection of minors.

"The general is extraordinary, he is indeed admired in his heart, general, you see?"

Well, you've got it all said.

Li Xiangqian thought about it, this is to be labeled as lolita, and it can make a good excuse for others to attack the little loli, they can say, oh, look, that Li Xiangqian is doing this, and then, he did it in a bright way.

Li Xiangqian said slowly: "I'll send you a book on hygiene another day, you see, marrying too early is not good for women, we are going to set the legal age of marriage as eighteen years old, as for Ling Yan's love, I am flattered, but the little girl's fantasy for a while, when she is older, there will naturally be other people to fantasize about it." ”

Ma Shiying looked a little uneasy, he really wanted to talk about his daughter marrying the person in front of him, no matter what, what is the so-called military committee, he can see it clearly, this is not only the guarantee of the family, but also the happiness of his daughter, as for the age gap or something, Ma Shiying really doesn't care, he himself is fifty-five, but he gave birth to a twelve-year-old daughter, the ghost knows how many concubines, and the man in front of him has a mature expression, but the face says that twenty years old also believes it, this is not too big.

Li Xiangqian said: "This is the examination room, there is pen and paper, well, please ask the old gentleman to write a marriage contract." ”

Ma Shiying was pleasantly surprised: "Whose marriage contract." ”

Li Xiangqian looked at the old fox and said, "My marriage contract with Ling Yan is not ...... The time of payment is set in five years, that is, the sixth year of the Republic, so that it will not be considered a violation of the marriage law, and everyone will have a room for relaxation. ”

Ma Shiying is a happy person, knowing that this is the condition offered by others, and there is no need for any matchmakers, where is there a matchmaker at this time, and he does not shy away from writing down what kind of male and female talents and women are at the right age, but when he was about to write down, who to marry as his wife, Li Xiangqian interjected: "I have a more formal official position, just write about the Central Military Commission of the Heavenly Dynasty, however, there is something I guess you know, the position of my wife has long been someone, and the grievance Ling Yan can only be a concubine." ”

Ma Shiying had the heart to throw away this matter and talk about it directly, but when she thought about it, she knew that the person in front of her was already talking about the conditions when she said this at this time.

An official like the Central Military Commission is not within the scope of the Ming Dynasty's authority, but in Chinese history, it is generally the position of the Great Sima, the Great General, plus the other party and others, what kind of republican system is used, that is, voting to do things, and it is even more powerful, is such a person qualified to marry the daughter of a former governor as a concubine?

In the end, he is the governor of the former dynasty, and he is mixed up, and that's it.

His brush paused for a few seconds, but instead of stopping, he continued to write.

can only be wronged by her daughter, but if everything goes well, it should not be wronged, Ma Shiying secretly comforted herself.

The marriage book is a thing that needs to be written on red paper, just when this palace is tested, there is a place to use red paper, Ma Shiying has a good memory, and writes everything well, and when it comes to Li Xiangqian's age, he is suddenly stunned, and he stands there for a while, as if he is pressing a black thing in his hand with his hand, and saying something.

Finally, after muttering for a long time, he said: "Write the forty-first year of Wanli on your birthday." ”
