0126 Alternate Emperor's Son-in-law

Shen Zhezi was not surprised by the courtesy and rewards that his father enjoyed in Jiankang City. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info I didn't pay much attention to the township marquis title that I got as if I was picking up rags.,After it's fresh.。

Nowadays, the so-called food eup, refers to the setting aside of a certain number of households in a certain place, and a certain percentage of the tax levied on them is deducted and distributed to the owner of the title, which is usually about one-third or less. At present, the tax of the household is about two to five stones, and the tax per mu is between 50 and 80 buckets.

Calculated in this way, Shen Zhezi, the Marquis of Wukang Township, is about 2,000 stones, and the silk is about 1,000 horses. It seems that it should be a lot, equivalent to the county guard's first-level Yulu, but in fact, the taxes exported to the imperial court from all over the country are sometimes in deficit, and it is even more difficult for the knights where the food is located to receive these goods in full. A person like Tao Kan who holds a lot of power has to send his son to keep an eye on the tax matters in the country.

If there is another position in the court or in the local government, there are other ways to make up for the shortfall, but if there is no ministry except for the title, there is really no need to take it too seriously, it is just an honorary title. Like Shen Zhezi, a local townsman in the food town, the Wukang County Bureau at most acquiesced to him to accept a part of the shade households, and if he was too careful, it would hurt the harmony of the countryside.

Of course, this honorary title is not something that anyone can get if they want it.

It's just, an alternate emperor's son-in-law?

Hearing this news, Shen Zhezi's subconscious reaction was that the emperor was going to die, otherwise his eldest daughter Sima Xingnan was only ten years old, one year younger than himself, how could he be in such a hurry to choose a horse.

Although Shen Zhezi passed the little princess through the wall, he didn't care much, probably because of the inertia of predicting history, and he didn't feel that he had the possibility of Princess Shang. Therefore, when I heard that I was listed as a candidate for the emperor's son-in-law, I was quite surprised, but after seeing the candidate list, my mood was a little calm.

The so-called alternative emperor's son-in-law rather than direct election is that Zongzheng and other officials in charge of royal clan affairs select several candidates who meet the family background, age, and talent name, and then select among them. In the process of this selection, the emperor, empress, clan relatives, and relatives all have a lot of right to speak, and in the final analysis, it is still a trade-off of interests.

This time, there are eight families of candidates for the emperor's son-in-law, including the Shen family, four overseas Chinese families, and four Nanshi, which can clearly see the emperor's intention to balance the northern and southern scholars.

Among the four overseas Chinese families, there are Langya Wang's, Taishan's goat's, Yingchuan Xun's, and Gaoping's Xi's. The four Nanshi are, Danyang Zhang, Danyang Ji, Wujun Zhang, and Wuxing Shen.

Shen Zhezi was first surprised that he couldn't see Qian Guohuan Wen in it, but after thinking about it for a while, he was relieved. The Huan clan of the Han Dynasty is not famous, and the only commendable thing at the moment is that there is only one Huan Yi official residence in the history of Xuancheng, which is barely a member of two thousand stones, and there is no such heroic spirit of fighting to the death for the country. Now that the emperor personally chooses his son-in-law, this kind of family background is a bit reluctant, and it is naturally difficult to be selected.

Then seeing that the selected person of the Danyang Ji clan was actually Ji You, Shen Zhezi was slightly stunned, and soon understood. Ji You is currently in the period of mourning, and everyone in the government and the opposition knows it, how can he be selected as the emperor's son-in-law? So this guy just came in to make up the numbers!

The outstanding children of each family may have already had the intention of getting married, or they may not want to be a princess. The reason why Zongzheng chose such a person as Ji You, who is obviously impossible to be selected, is to cover up the royal shame, and if the other families don't want to marry the princess, they should withdraw as soon as possible, so that they can not be very abrupt and save each other's face. Shen Zhezi thought that he was also selected to make up the number for this reason?

He was still laughing in his heart just now, a rich and handsome man was injured in love, and he lived like a spare tire, but he didn't expect to be forced to spare a spare tire when he turned his head!

The emperor is still alive, and his right to speak is the most important thing, and he is not an emperor who focuses on retreat. In this list, Taishan Goat's Clan, Yingchuan Xun Clan, and Wujun Zhang Clan are all Qingwang Gaomen, but their current position is not significant, and they have little impact on the current situation, so they may be selected very low.

Danyang Ji's Ji Youju mourning clothes and filial piety, just make up the numbers. Although the Wuxing Shen clan has been quite excited recently, in such a group of high-ranking families, it is simply ashamed to talk about Qingwang, no different from a man, and his hope is naturally very slim.

In this way, eight were selected, and the only ones with greater hope were Langya Wang, Gaoping Xi and Danyang Zhang.

The Langya Wang clan is now the highest gate in the country, crowning the north and south, and the other families have lost half of this name alone. Although there was some unhappiness with the royal family before, there was no pure liking or dislike for politicians, and it was normal for the emperor to want to stabilize the situation and repair relations with the Wang family when he was dying. And the Langya Wang clan has been declining recently, and if an emperor can come out at this juncture, it will also be able to solve the urgent needs of his family. It's normal to make peace with each other.

As for the Gaoping Xi clan, now Xi Jian is the biggest trump card used by the emperor to contact and balance the militia, and in the future, he will sit in the important town of Jingkou to deepen the friendship with each other, which will be more secure for the safety of the royal family, and it will also be of great benefit to the Gaoping Xi clan who is a little later in the south to stabilize Jiangnan!

The Danyang Zhang family, as a high-ranking family in Wuzhong, was able to meet the needs of the emperor to balance the north and the south, and his family had been operating in Danyang for a long time, which also played a great role in stabilizing the situation in Gyeonggi. Although it is not as influential as the previous two selections, it is much more promising than the others.

Whether he can marry a princess or not, Shen Zhezi didn't care much. But seeing that he was so obviously pulled in to accompany him, and he had to seriously think about which one was more likely to be selected, which made him a little unacceptable, and he felt insulted.

Qian Feng took the list and pondered for a long time, and suddenly smiled: "Congratulations to Xiao Langjun, he has not reached the weak crown, and he has been favored by the emperor." ”

"Uncle, don't make fun of me, just looking at the selection of these families, how can my family be selected? Knowing that I will fall, why should I rush to Jiankang to suffer a cold eye. ”

Shen Zhezi waved his hand angrily, he had already classified this matter as a conspiracy and ridicule, such a simple thing, why couldn't Dad see it, and directly excused himself, and solemnly told himself to go to Jiankang to do something?

When Qian Feng heard Shen Zhezi's words, he was stunned, stared at the list for a while, and then pointed at Shen Zhezi and said with a smile: "Xiao Langjun is calm and outstanding, and he can still be calm with such great joy, which is really difficult for ordinary people to reach." However, your thinking is limited to power and strategy, and you have no experience, and you will be lacking after all. It is important to know that His Majesty is not only a king, but also a father. If it is said that the people are friendly, the seven families listed are not good, but Xiao Langjun is afraid that he has already been a king! ”

Hearing Qian Feng's words, Shen Zhezi was slightly stunned, and then picked up the list and looked at it. His inference just now really only took into account the current political changes, but he did not deeply think about the true thoughts of the emperor's father, and he really did not have such feelings and experiences in his two lives, so he directly ignored this factor.

Qian Feng leaned over and said: "The Wang family's high gate, there are many clansmen, and the door is frequently tilted, how can it be a good place for the little lady to return." Gao Ping Xi's new arrival is not stable, the family business has not yet been established, and he still has to suffer from overcoming thorns and thorns......"

Listening to Qian Feng's interpretation of this list from a father's perspective, Shen Zhezi suddenly found that his family was indeed the most suitable family for the princess. Although Qingwang is not high, the position is extremely high, the family is wealthy, and it is located in a peaceful place in Wuzhong, unless it is a catastrophe, it is impossible to suffer from military disasters. In other words, as long as his family does not cause chaos, Wuzhong can protect against a small number of soldiers.

If you consider it from this point, it can explain that the emperor rewarded his father and himself beyond the specifications, and did not want the princess's husband's family to be too shabby.

But is it possible for an emperor who has the ambition to reorganize the mountains and rivers to only consider the relationship between his children and daughters when he is dying?

And, if that's the case, why pick out eight alternatives and choose your own directly? Could it be that the situation faced by the emperor is so embarrassed that he can't even say anything about his children's affairs?

Shen Zhezi has not been healthy for a long time, and now that history has changed greatly, he really can't guess what the situation in the garden is, so he was a little confused for a while.

Qian Feng saw that Shen Zhezi was silent, and said: "The key point now is not whether Xiao Langjun and I guess correctly, but whether Langjun is willing to be elected as the emperor's son-in-law?" If Lang Jun is interested, even if there is only a chance, he should try his best to win it once! ”

A word to wake up the dreamer!

Hearing Qian Feng's words, Shen Zhezi suddenly came to his senses, yes, but if you want to do anything, you can only be enterprising, how can you sit and watch! Now the question to consider is, should he marry the princess? If you should marry, even if you are strong, you must marry back!

For the little princess Xingnan, Shen Zhezi only heard her voice and didn't see her. If it is for emotional considerations, it is unsubstantiated and too far-fetched. Then you can only consider it from the perspective of interests.

The emperor's life was not long, and then the young emperor was extremely active, the queen mother listened to the government in the court, and the Yu relatives were dominant, and the brothers successively controlled the inside and outside for decades. The Shen family and the Yu family originally echoed, so they didn't have to worry.

But Shen Zhezi knew how stubborn Yu Liang would be in the future, and there was a big hidden danger that could erupt at any time in Liyang Su Jun, if he only dealt with the Yu family politically, it would be difficult for the Shen family to avoid turmoil in the future.

Although Yu Yi has a good relationship with his father, and he also has the means to control Yu Tiao, it is really difficult to transfer political trade-offs based on human feelings. The other three brothers of the Yu family are all ruthless characters, and it is really difficult to maintain the current harmony for too long.

After the death of the emperor, the eldest princess Xingnan itself meant a valuable political capital. After getting this funding and consolidating the local foundation of Wuzhong, it may not be impossible to bypass the Yu family and jump on stage in advance to participate in the game of the current situation!

As for the hidden dangers, Shen Zhezi also considered it very clearly. The first may make the overseas Chinese as a whole aware of the threat of the rise of Nanshi, and the second may anger Yu Liang and make him worry that it will be difficult to control. But these are nothing, the emperor's current arrangement for the current situation, no matter which side wants to go all out, will have many scruples, and will be besieged by all sides!

Even if there is no matter of marrying a princess, it will be difficult to get along with the ruling overseas Chinese in the future. As for whether the husband will be difficult to revitalize in the future, it is not within his consideration at the moment. The joy of boudoir, is it only a thrush? If you marry someone who is too deferential and blindly respects each other as a guest, such a life is much blander.

After weighing it in his heart for a long time, Shen Zhezi gradually made a decision: "Princess, I am bound to win!" ”
