"Second child, I heard that you are discussing marriage with Jinan Houjia?"

On this day, Chen Jigong happened to rest. Rarely idle, he spent a day at home reviewing the newly delivered financial statements of the Beihai Company, without thinking about court affairs. But in the evening, Chen Jiqing ran over and asked.

Chen Jiqing asked recklessly, but Chen Jigong didn't care, the two of them were fine. Shaking his head, he said: "That's what it means, the eight characters haven't been combined yet, it's still early." ”

Although Chen Jigong's children are concubines, Chen Jigong is also very precious. If you want to be his son-in-law, then you can't wait for him to find out and satisfy Chen Jigong, so that it can be counted?

Since Chen Jigong said so, he also has this meaning. This proves that the other party has at least no flaws on the surface.

This Jinan Hou is Shi Meng. Although his name is not very prominent in the army, many people know that Shi Meng is Chen Ming's absolute heart. He has been in charge of the pro-guard forces all year round.

However, this marriage was not Shi Meng, who Chen Jigong took the initiative to contact. He is not so anxious about his children's lifelong events, which is a bit like Chen Ming. And although Chen Jigong has faded out of Chen Ming little by little over the years, this fade is only in political affairs, and it has not faded in personal friendship. Chen Jigong is not in a hurry to go to the slime.

Chen Jigong still wants to let his daughter go to college, and now she has only been in high school for less than a year, and she is not yet sixteen years old.

Marriage also depends on the temperament of the children. In the case of sons, if you want to study, find a learned Yue family; If you prefer the military, you should find a child from a military family, and it will be convenient for the development of the military branch in the future. And the son who is not outstanding at both ends of the civil and military ends, and can only guard the door, find a daughter of a high-ranking eunuch, so that he will not suffer among his brothers. And the daughter has to understand that the son-in-law is different from the daughter-in-law, the son-in-law must first have a good character, and then the ability, those who have grown crooked, no matter how good the family background is, they can't ask for it.

Chen Jiqing sat down, "I just got the news that the eldest son of Jinan Hou is a little close to His Royal Highness King Yu. ”

Chen Jigong's brows immediately furrowed, this is a new situation, but ......, it's not a big deal. "It's out of the way." King Yu is the first son of the emperor and the first son of the empress, and he is the eldest son.

According to Chinese tradition, the eldest son is a natural heir, and it is logical that the name is untenable.

Although Shi Meng was the emperor's lonely minister on the surface, Chen Jigong also sat with him a few times, and Shi Meng was inclined to King Yu in his speech.

"It wasn't a big deal. But His Royal Highness King Yu couldn't stand it and let people come into contact with those outliers of the Neo-Confucian Party, which made many people in the clan change their attitudes. "Chen Jigong and Chen Jiqing brothers are standard Chen clan relatives.

This is big news that has just broke. Not only did Shen Guozhen come into contact with those outliers of the Neo-Confucian Party, but even His Royal Highness King Yu also made contact with those outliers. And those outliers are said to have broken up with the Neo-Confucian Party.

And many people in the Chen Han clan still scoff at the cooking, and even they are very resistant to the dualistic system. In their eyes, the emperor's supreme 'court' is the normal court.

When Chen Jigong discussed marriage with Shi Meng before, of course, it was impossible to predict that there would be such a wave of wind and waves. But now it is said that many people in the clan have changed their attitudes because of this and sided with other princes.

It's just that Chen Jigong doesn't care much about this, because he feels that his feudal kingdom can't wait a few years before it comes. When his cousins and nephews worked hard for the supreme chair to the last moment, he was no longer in Nanjing.

Chen Jigong is not his father Chen Cong, Chen Cong is unwilling to go to the Americas thousands of miles away, and his purpose has been repaired in Lushan. But Chen Jigong and Chen Jiqing's brothers are going to the Americas, which is the obsession of their brothers in their hearts for decades. If they don't go to their own land in their lifetime to take a look, their brother will not be blind to death.

And Shi Meng is more valued and respected by Chen Jigong in Chen Hanxun's circle. The family style of the Shi Meng family is also more praised among the many noble elders. In other words, Chen Jigong didn't believe that Shi Meng's people would teach any bad seeds, nor did he believe that the Jinan Hou Mansion would be defeated in two generations.

Chen Han is not a former dynasty or a great former dynasty.

The great families of poetry and books were placed in the Zhu Ming and Zhao Song dynasties, and they were all excellent marriage partners of the founding nobles. But in today's world, there are still great families of poetry and books. Moreover, the emperor's suppression of the Xungui family can be said to be quite slight, which is completely different from the time of Zhu Ming and the time of Zhao and Song.

Of course, with the 'overseas feudal state' as a bait, the nobles of the Chen Han Dynasty are also different from the meritorious ministers of the previous dynasty. For the latter group, the local power and interests belong to a state that can be abandoned and abandoned, and 'overseas feudalism' is their greatest pursuit.

This makes Chen Ming's acquisition of power a lot easier!

In this environment, with Shi Meng's family style, Jinan Houfu can be said to be solid.

Chen Jigong does not want his son-in-law to inherit Jinan Houguo in the future, he only needs to take root in the soil, take root in the national defense army, and inherit the three-point connections of Jinan Hou, and the future will be promising.

Shi Meng's youngest son, who is also a concubine, is 20 years old this year and a third-year student in the artillery department of the Central Military Academy.

The grades are excellent, the instructor evaluation is excellent, the young man is also mentally strong, and he has no bad habits

Chen Jigong is still very satisfied with him.

"The little boy of Jinan Hou is already twenty years old, he is a cat or a tiger, and he can already see seven or eight. This kid is still good. ”

That's right. If you want to discuss relatives, the key is to look at character and character. If the child is too young to see anything, it is better to wait until he is older. Chen Jiqing is also more convinced of Shi Meng's family style. Even he doubted that Shi Meng's eldest son was in contact with His Royal Highness King Yu because he was ordered by the emperor.

If you marry a wife and marry the wrong wife, your life may be ruined.

Chen Jiqing came over to listen to the news, sat for a while and then left.

Waiting for Chen Jiqing to leave, Chen Jigong's wife came into the study and asked Chen Jigong: "Master, does the boy of the Shi family have a ......" Chen Jigong shook his head, the matter of discussing relatives can continue, it's not a big deal.

Yue retreated satisfied.

Jinan Hou's family is Jane's family in the emperor's heart, and his son will go to the Americas in the future, but his daughter-in-law and son-in-law can't all leave, and those relatives of his mother's family can't all leave. In the future, there will be the remnants of the Shi family on the mainland, and there will be such an ally as the Marquis of Jinan, not to mention the future, just say that it will be greatly beneficial now.

Yes. Chen Jigong's youngest daughter was not born to the Yue family, but so what? She doesn't want to call herself 'mother', she can only call herself 'mother'. Everything else is 'auntie'.

"The head of the next Jockey Club is finally decided, it is Chen Jing, the son of the Marquis of Jinyang."

At the same time that Chen Ding was revealed to be related to the outliers of the Neo-Confucian Party, the election of the Nanjing Jockey Club was also at the last moment. Liu Wu rushed to the palace as soon as he got the news. Chen Ming was admiring a dragon jade pendant there, the cyan background was the sky, the yellow dragon body in the white clouds appeared and disappeared from time to time, the entire jade pendant did not reveal a large area of the dragon body, but the scale claws loomed, but it hid an attractive charm. The base material of this jade pendant is Nanyang jade, which is not precious, and its value is far worse than that of mutton fat jade. But this ingenious ingenuity is really beautiful, and people can't take their eyes off it.

Chen Ming handed Liu Wu a cup of tea with his own hands, "It turned out to be this kid." Jockey Club has fun. "Chen Jing was originally chosen by Chen Min as his heir, and he was kicked to the Americas to sharpen, knowing that Wang Huizu only came back from the Americas during the period.

In the second year, the hat of the Marquis of Jinyang officially changed his position, and Chen Jing's eldest brother Chen Sheng gave up the title to his brother. At that time, Chen Sheng was already the deputy minister of the Ministry of Supervision.

After Chen Jing returned to Beijing, his interest in horse racing remained the same, and he had the hat of the Marquis of Jinyang on his head, and his eldest brother could also be said to be a high authority, and his status was more than one head higher than before. Therefore, Chen Jing, the 'Jockey Club Executive Committee' of the year, easily returned to the high-level circle of Nanjing. And I don't know what kind of relationship he has reached with the Li family, and the Li family has a hundred supports for him. Now that Chen Jing is at the head of the Jockey Club, that is, the chairman of the executive committee, it is a very important position, at least in terms of economic influence, Chen Ding will get a rich harvest. But this will also put Chen Jing on the opposite side of his other sons.

Especially now that Chen Ding was revealed to be connected with the outliers of the Neo-Confucian Party - Chen Ming made a decision personally, he was very angry.

Chen Ming's face suddenly showed a trace of confusion. Seriously, he's really not sure who to choose as his candidate right now.

At first, he was inclined to Chen Ding.

This is his first child, and it is also the child he pays the most attention to.

But Chen Ding has grown up now, and he has changed when he has grown up.

This son, who was quite resistant to the 'dish cooking' in the previous time, actually took the initiative to send someone to extend an olive branch to the heresy of the Neo-Confucian Party. This made Chen Ming very unexpected, and it also made his attitude towards Chen Ding change a lot.

You must know that Chen Ding was the first of Chen Ming's sons who intended to be in the big position to 'change their attitudes'.

Chen Ming couldn't believe that his son was suddenly inspired by 'cooking', or that he had a sudden epiphany. And if Chen Ding didn't understand it 'suddenly', what does his change mean?

A few years ago, Chen Ming was pleased that his son was 'kind', none of them were 'liked' because of their 'likes', and none of them were 'hated' because of their 'hate'. But now Chen Ding's transformation is like a slap in the face......

Do you want it?

Chen Ming felt that he was 'surrendering'.

So recently, Chen Ming's attitude towards Chen Ding has been a lot more indifferent. Not long ago, I made a decision to 'break the news' about this matter. It's just that Chen Ding's next performance has moved back a little impression for him, because although Chen Dingming knows that Chen Ming's attitude towards him has changed a little in the past few days, his contact with the Neo-Confucian Party has not been affected by this. This proves that Chen Ming's eldest son is still a bit responsible.

……

The lanterns in the Marquis of Jinyang's mansion were colorful, and Chen Jing did not hide his joy and excitement, and he was holding a feast to invite his descendants.

Once his wish for many years was fulfilled, Chen Jing was a little excited and couldn't help himself.

Although he will also stand on the opposite side of several other princes because of His Royal Highness King Yu, just like Chen Jigong thought, Chen Jing also felt that the day when the imperial court swept South America was not far off.

Then, by the time King Yu and King Yu met with their daggers, Chen Jing would have already arrived in the Americas. What else can the new emperor do with their family?
