245 Such a man cannot be accustomed to it
(Today's chapter is presented, brothers, please collect and subscribe!) For the sake of more than two months without breaking the change, those who have monthly passes will smash a few for me, thank you!! )
Besides, she knew that Yu came to her house to propose marriage before...
Thinking that if her father agreed to the Yu family and let her be the fool of the Yu family, she would rather die.
Guan Mingxi also understands that this is not a kind of protection for her father.
Moreover, when Guan Mingxi saw Li Zixiao for the first time tonight, he was also attracted by Li Zixiao's tall and handsome appearance.
Rao is usually Lan Xinhui Guan Mingxi, looking at Li Zixiao's conversation and behavior, he couldn't help but blush.
I have to say that this kind of thing not only happened in later generations, even in ancient times, the ancients were very concerned about appearance.
Think about the 'phoenix' Pang Tong during the Three Kingdoms period, although he was talented, he was extremely ugly, so he was not welcomed.
And I have to say that Li Zixiao does have a good skin, a handsome face, a tall and mighty figure, and he can definitely be called a dignified appearance and a talent.
Sometimes, Li Zixiao thinks in his heart that if he has to say that he has traveled to the end of the Ming Dynasty, the thing that satisfies him the most is that he has a good skin.
Now Guan Mingxi sees that his father is so attentive, and he takes the whole family to hold a banquet to entertain this General Li, just to give himself to the other party as a concubine.
The status of the concubine in ancient times was very low, and it would not be like marrying a wife, eight sedan chairs, and the Ming media was marrying, which was more like a business.
It is said that the Guan family is also a well-known figure in Yangzhou City, and Li Zixiao's identity as a third-grade military general is not very noble, so it is not enough to let the Guan family give Li Zixiao the most beautiful daughter to Li Zixiao as a concubine.
But everything is due to the fact that at this time, the Guan family is in Yangzhou and the West Mountain, the Yu family and the Wan family have already shown their fangs and are eyeing them, and Guan Daowen is anxious to find a backer for the Guan family.
It just so happened that at this time, Li Zixiao entered Guan Daowen's eyes, and this good thing fell on Li Zixiao's head in a daze.
No matter how smart and generous a girl is, once it comes to her marriage, who can pretend to be nothing.
The current Guan Mingxi's pink face is already as ashamed as a big red cloth dyed red.
In order to hide the shame on her face, the two small hands she hid under the table almost broke the small handkerchiefs in her hands.
But what made Guan Mingxi even more ashamed and angry was that the General Li in front of him, as if he was missing a string, did not react at all to such an obvious hint from his father.
On the contrary, if nothing happened, she was on the side with her father and eldest brother, pushing the cup and changing the cup and drinking, how could she not be shy and full of resentment!
After drinking a few more glasses of wine, Guan Daowen's drunkenness seemed to be even stronger, and he said with his tongue open: "Virtuous nephew, the old man has the courage to say a word."
The virtuous nephew is already a general, and there is no one around him who can take care of him, I don't know how the virtuous nephew looks at the little girl? ”
"Okay, Ling Qianjin's talent is unique, Li has already heard about it when he first arrived in Yangzhou City." Li Zixiao said with the strength of the wine.
Guan Daowen pointed to Guan Mingxi, who was sitting next to him, and said: "The little girl Mingxi is seventeen this year, not as good as the general said, but her appearance is passable, and she has not yet been married."
If the virtuous nephew does not dislike it, the old man wants to send the general as a concubine tomorrow and take care of the virtuous nephew's daily life, I don't know what the virtuous nephew wants? ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked, and for a while, the hall was so quiet that it was audible to drop a needle, and everyone fell into a state of stupor.
The chopsticks in Li Zixiao's hand have fallen to the ground at some point.
The first to react was Guan Mingxi, she quickly stood up, so shy that she didn't even dare to say a word, like a rabbit being chased by a tiger, and quickly rushed out of the hall.
The second person to react was Li Zixiao, who was startled when he heard this, and then immediately woke up most of the wine.
His eyes swept over at once, except for Miss Guan, who had fled, everyone present was looking at him with a strange look that was inexplicable.
But Guan Daowen didn't see any discoloration on his face, in ancient times, before a man didn't marry a wife, he could take a concubine, and set aside the position of the main wife and leave it to the right woman.
Before Li Zixiao came, although he had doubts about the purpose of the Guan family's banquet in the inner mansion tonight, he didn't expect this to be the case.
Conquest? What a good word!
Li Zixiao had also seen the Miss Guan family just now, and she definitely didn't say anything.
With the appearance of that Miss Guan, in the university of later generations, she is definitely a beauty at the level of a school flower.
Even if it is compared to Lin Wan'er, who fell in love with her at first sight a few days ago, she is only slightly inferior.
In addition, Miss Guan is still a well-known talented girl in Yangzhou, Li Zixiao never imagined that he would do such a good thing.
"I didn't expect the situation of the Guan family to be so bad."
But at this time, Li Zixiao thought more in his heart.
Because, yesterday he received a report from the Intelligence Department to collect the situation of the major families in Yangzhou, and the situation of the Guan family has become worse and worse in recent years.
Their business has been eroded by the Yu family and the Wanjia family, and they have lost a large number of old customers, but their arms can't twist their thighs, and the Guan family can only swallow their anger about it.
He even heard rumors that the master of the Yu family proposed to the Guan family for his fool, but Guan Daowen did not agree.
Li Zixiao estimated that Guan Daowen not only didn't have a plan, but also scolded his mother.
At this time, Guan Daowei did not hesitate to give his daughter to himself as a concubine, and he also saw Guan Daowen's helplessness.
But in the final analysis, Guan Daowen is still a figure with a head and face in Yangzhou at this time, and Li Zixiao plans to continue to cooperate with the Guan family in the future.
Now Guan Daowen does not hesitate to give his daughter to him as a concubine, if he still refuses, the Guan family's face is estimated to be lost, and Guan Daowen is also fighting.
At this time, Guan Daowen and Guan Shengjie's hands under the table were tightly clenched, looking at Li Zixiao.
Is this kind of thing a man can refuse?
Li Zixiao believes that there must be, but that kind of person is either extinct or in a psychiatric hospital.
As for this, whether Li Zixiao will offend the so-called Yangzhou big family Yu family and Wanjia, he doesn't care at all, he will cooperate with the Guan family in the future.
Then the Guan family is his partner, if the Wan family doesn't have a long eye to provoke him, then don't blame him for being ruthless.
Li Zixiao is no longer the college student Li Zixiao in the 21st century, and he has seen more dead people during this time than he has seen in his previous life.
No matter how bullish the Yangzhou giant is, since he dares to kill all the big landlords in a county, the slaughtered Yangzhou big family is nothing.
Let go of Guan Mingxi's appearance, don't say anything, but just say that if Li Zixiao really accepts Guan Mingxi as a concubine, it will be beneficial and harmless to him.
"Will this be a grievance?"
"What grievances are not wronged, it is her blessing that the little girl can serve the general."
Guan Daowen saw the joy on Li Zixiao's face, and knew that this could be done, and said with a smile.
Then, Li Zixiao left his seat, came to Guan Daowen to push Jin Shan down like a jade pillar, knelt down on one knee and hugged his fists and said: "Father-in-law is above, please accept the worship of my son-in-law!" ”
Guan Daowen, who was originally a little nervous, finally let go of his heart when he heard Li Zixiao's words.
And he was shocked that Li Zixiao actually called him his father-in-law, and even gave him such a big gift.
Because, in ancient times, the parents of the concubine were not the father-in-law and mother-in-law of the male owner, after all, taking a concubine was more like a transaction, but it would make the two families more or less connected.
"Virtuous nephew, you can't help it, please get up quickly, your father-in-law, the old man doesn't dare to be it!"
"When, when. In the future, I, Li Zixiao, will never see Mingxi as a concubine, he is my woman. ”
"Okay, the old man will hand over tomorrow to the general in the future."
Li Zixiao didn't expect that his first 'wife' was decided like this, there was no need for a dowry, no wedding, everything looked so casual.
This is the custom of this era, and Li Zixiao can only follow the customs.
However, when he thought of Guan Mingxi's appearance just now, Li Zixiao's heart was still moved.
In the next few days, Li Zixiao has been living in the Guan family, and even the Guan family sent Guan Mingxi over the next night, this is the rhythm of sleeping with him!
But Li Zixiao didn't want Guan Mingxi to feel that his marriage was so hasty, even if there was no wedding, at least he had to see Li Zixiao's parents and have a reunion.
Therefore, Li Zixiao did not move Guan Mingxi, but promised the Guan family that he would take her with him when he left Yangzhou and went to his hometown Jinling.
After she met Mother Li, she would round the house.
So, Li Zixiao went to talk to Guan Mingxi that night.
Seeing a delicate beauty sitting in front of him, but unable to move, Li Zixiao hated himself a little again.
But Li Zixiao doesn't have a sperm worm in his brain, he still has this self-sustaining power, otherwise how to do big things in the future, at this time, he has to take into account Guan Mingxi's feelings.
Through a conversation with Guan Mingxi, Li Zixiao found that this woman is really a talented woman, with chapters of export, quoting scriptures, and understanding the past and the present.
Fortunately, Li Zixiao has more than 300 years of knowledge than her, and he has seen more than Ming Xi in ancient books, and he doesn't know much about Cheng Zhu Lixue.
But he knows science, has a lot of truths, and has an extra three hundred years of knowledge, which is enough for Li Zixiao to make up for his own shortcomings, and Guan Mingxi finally has something to say.
Soon, Guan Mingxi was deeply attracted by Li Zixiao's talk about the world and scientific thoughts, and she found that her future husband was not a general who only knew how to kill.
On the contrary, he is a knowledgeable miscellaneous scholar who understands a lot of astronomy and geography.
And it was so apt, he would think about one of his concubines, so that the last trace of resentment in Guan Mingxi's heart disappeared.
On this day, Li Zixiao was in the Guan family's mansion and was about to return to the house from a garden exit.
Suddenly, several people came from the front, led by Guan Daowen and a middle-aged man in a cyan Confucian shirt.
Behind them was Guan Shengjie, another young man in a white Confucian shirt, and a silly young man next to him.
Guan Daowenxiang walked in front and kept explaining something carefully to the middle-aged man in Tsing Yi, but the man obviously didn't give face, and his face was very ugly.
The two sides soon met, and each stopped.
When Guan Wen saw Li Zixiao, he hurriedly introduced: "Lord Yu, the two are sons, this is General Li, who just took his little daughter as a concubine."
Virtuous son-in-law, this is Lord Yu Shiming who has just given the officer, and his eldest son Yu Boren and second son Yu Boyi, you come and give a gift to Lord Yu. ”
As soon as Guan Daowen said this, everyone's eyes were fixed on him.
Li Zixiao also looked at this time, and the father and son of the Yu family on the opposite side objectively said that Yu Shiming's three fathers and sons were very good-looking, at least compared to Li Zixiao, at least in appearance.
The one who is located in Shiming is very thin, and the three locks of hair under the chin are neatly combed, and the literati atmosphere is very strong.
And his eldest son, Yu Boren, has a kind of neutral beauty, but Li Zixiao always feels that there is a gloomy taste in the eyes of both of them, which makes people feel very uncomfortable.
As for the second son of the Yu family, he is also a famous fool in Yangzhou City.
Yu Shiming had been a bachelor in the Hanlin Academy before, and he was a fourth-grade official rank, which was actually one level lower than Li Zixiao's official rank from the third rank at this time.
However, at this time, the status of civil officials is still much higher than that of military generals, even if the imperial court has paid more and more attention to military generals in recent years, it still cannot easily change this concept.
In the eyes of these civil officials, they look down on these vulgar generals, and even military generals with high official ranks, it is very common for them to salute when they meet civil officials with lower ranks than themselves.
At this time, after seeing Li Zixiao, Yu Shiming, who had already been a scholar of the former Hanlin Academy, spoke.
He stroked the three locks of beard under his chin, and asked quietly: "I didn't expect Master Guan to give Ling Qianjin to a vulgar general, it's really a cow chewing peonies, but it's a pity that Ling Qianjin's talent is gone." ”
"Damn, Nima, you old thing can talk! Lao Tzu is dignified and has an IQ of 100 plus, is he not as good as your stupid son. You're scolding Lao Tzu! ”
Li Zixiao scolded in his heart.
Li Zixiao is not a good stubble, others slapped him, how could he not fight back, this kind of person can't get used to it.
The more he thought about it, Li Zixiao, who became more and more unhappy in his heart, said with a look of disdain: "I heard that there is a second son in the Yu family, who knows astronomy and geography, and knows the past and the present, and no one knows the entire Yangzhou City, and no one knows.
It is precisely because of this that Master Guan did not dare to marry Ming Xi to the second son, otherwise tomorrow the entire Yangzhou City would say that the Guan family had climbed high! ”
"You ......"
Yu Shiming was almost angry by Li Zixiao's words, this is simply slapping his old face!
No one in the entire Yangzhou City knows that the second son of the Yu family is a stupid son, but when Li Zixiao says this at this time, he understands that he is scolding people around the corner!
Everyone was a little stunned when they heard this, this is located in Shiming, but he is a bachelor from the Hanlin Academy, and he has come down from the official position of the fourth grade.
In the eyes of others, he is already a big official, but Li Zixiao doesn't care about it at all.
The bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, what is it, the responsibility is to compile, edit and review the literature and history, and the above is the bachelor of the academy.
To put it bluntly, this is a kind of idle official with a job but no power.
However, the name of these three words of Hanlin Academy is still very bluffing.
The establishment of the Hanlin Academy began in the Tang Dynasty, and it was originally an institution for people with artistic abilities.
After the late Tang Dynasty, the Hanlin Academy evolved into an important institution specializing in drafting confidential edicts, and was known as the "private of the Son of Heaven".
After the Song Dynasty, it became an official position and was in line with the imperial examination. After the Ming Dynasty, it was replaced by the cabinet and other places, and became a place to raise talents and store hope, and its status was noble, which was a stepping stone to become an old cabinet minister and even a local official.
In ancient China, Hanlin scholars have always been the highest status scholar group in society.
Li Bai, Du Fu, Zhang Jiuling, and Bai Juyi in the Tang Dynasty, Su Shi, Ouyang Xiu, Wang Anshi, and Sima Guang in the Song Dynasty, Song Lian, Fang Xiaoru, and Zhang Juzheng in the Ming Dynasty, Zeng Guofan, Li Hongzhang and so on in the late Qing Dynasty were all from Hanlin.
It is a great honor to be selected into the Hanlin Academy and be called "Dianhanlin".
The bachelors are not only committed to the inheritance of cultural and academic undertakings, but also actively participate in politics and discuss government affairs.
From the imperial examination to the Hanlin, from the Hanlin to the courtiers, it is the life ideal of the scholars and doctors in the imperial examination era, and it is the manifestation of the so-called "attainment and help the world".
However, the brilliant prospect of becoming a scholar of Hanlin also caused a large number of intellectuals to devote themselves to the imperial examination, resulting in a waste of talents in society.
The ancient Chinese society emphasized scribes over technicians, which slowed down the development of science and technology.
It's not nice to say, everyone wants to be an official, think about intrigue, deceit, and go to infighting.
It is precisely because of this that at this time, Yu Shiming is just a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy.
But in his eyes, he still looked down on Li Zixiao, who was a military attache from the third rank at this time.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have come as soon as it came, just a nostril-facing look. )
