Chapter 003: Which One Is This Singing?
Passing through Xinzheng, Gao Pragmatic was not able to convince Zhang, but he was not discouraged, because he found that it was not his mother Zhang who wanted to "persuade", but more of his father Gao Yan and ...... Reality.
It stands to reason that with his highly pragmatic status, if his father does not agree to such a thing as marrying a wife, it will basically be a dead end in this era, but he is not worried, because he feels that it is easier to persuade his father than to persuade his mother.
Generally speaking, a woman's stubbornness is sometimes unreasonable, because a woman is relatively more emotional, and if she thinks so, she may recognize that it must be so. However, this is not the case with men, who are more likely to be more practical and more likely to be "flexible" by changes in reality.
In addition to the question of social roots, it is also important that politicians are more male and female, and it is not a question of fairness or unfairness, but of nature. There will certainly be very few examples, but the overall trend is like that.
For example, a male politician may coldly order millions of people to die on the battlefield and tens of millions of people to be displaced for reasons of profit, but the same thing is almost unimaginable for a female politician.
Yin and Yang are born with their own strengths.
Wu Zetian is good at power, can control the ministers, and is the only empress in Chinese history, which is naturally powerful, but the foreign wars of the Wu Zhou Dynasty are really a bit embarrassing for the Tang Dynasty, which may be the difference.
So what Gao Pragmatic had been worried about before was that his mother couldn't explain it here, but if it was his father, it would be easier to do. As for what little mustard he has in his heart, what little tsundere he has, it's all a small problem.
With a hint of ease, Gao pragmatic left Xinzheng and continued to go north.
On June 22, the seven-grade petty official, the superintendent of the imperial history Gao pragmatic light car Jian Cong arrived in Beijing - the light car Jian Cong was pure nonsense, and after arriving at Lugou Bridge, his family team left and went to see the Xinzhai school, leaving only Gao Pragmatic and Cao Ke's master and servant two people with four family members into the city.
Pretending has always been a highly pragmatic specialty.
However, this time there was an accident, and someone didn't plan to let him quietly enter the city.
Outside the Yongding Gate of the South Gate of the capital, the banner is displayed, the armor is like a forest, there are more than 20,000 people in the carefully selected Beijing camp outside, there are about 3,000 guards of honor in brocade clothes, the most central is the Ming Yellow Dragon Flag fluttering, the Ming Emperor Zhu Yijun is dressed in military uniform, riding on a horse with pure white coat, looking at the high pragmatism from the south with a smile.
Zhu Yijun wears a thin fox fur round hat, wears a bright yellow square-necked placket armor, without nail pieces and nails, and the body is decorated with a cloud shoulder and knee cloud dragon pattern, and the front placket is decorated with a row of small round buttons. Under the hood, he wears a long red cross-collared narrow-sleeved straight-body coat. A small leather belt is tied around the waist, and the shape and number of belts are the same as those of the regular leather belt. Bring a bow bag, quiver, eggplant bag, knife, tooth clip, etc.
Looking at the equipment, it is neat, as if it can go directly to the war, but this white horse ...... I'm afraid it's not very convenient to use for war, right?
Of course Zhu Yijun is not ready to fight, he is even difficult to get out of the imperial city, and he will be sprayed if he runs around, how can he go into battle to fight? This is also to take the opportunity to have a good time, under the pretext that Gao Pragmatic is making military exploits this time, and he has to fulfill his previous promise, and come up with something "I am a general to relieve the battle robe" - that is, the poem of Sejong Jiajing that he quoted before.
The civil and military officials could only roll their eyes secretly, Gao Pragmatic did command the Battle of Annam, but how did he become a "general"? He was a patrol according to the imperial history, commanding soldiers and horses in Guangxi, nominally he could only be a supervisor of the army, and the reason why he went to the Simingzhou Rebellion was because Zhang Ren was seriously ill and had to ask him to do it for him.
As for the battle of Annam...... Alas, can we not spread out and talk about things? This battle is essentially a private war, and the court has not sent a single soldier, not even a copper plate!
But others see a deeper level: What does this mean?
It shows that the emperor thinks that as long as it is a victory achieved by Gao Pragmatism, it is his victory!
The relationship between him and Gao Pragmatic is even close to this extent!
Gao Pragmatic saw the situation in front of him from afar, first stunned for a moment, and then a little surprised in his heart, and said secretly: No, if you had said that you would have greeted the triumph, I would have brought some soldiers by my side.
However, before he could think about it, there was already a group of hussars in front of him, the first of them riding a tall horse, dressed in a gorgeous military uniform, if it weren't for the fact that his face was a little nervous, he would have looked majestic.
The person who came turned out to be a big acquaintance, Zhu Yingzhen, the Duke of Chengguo, who was "as close as a brother" to him.
"Hahahaha, truth-seeking, you have finally arrived, if you rub it for a while, these 30,000 people outside the Yongding Gate will have to die in the sun today...... Hurry up, the Holy One asked me to welcome you, and he wants to relieve you of your robes! β
Gao Pragmatic was taken aback: "How can I have any battle robes?" β
This is really the truth, when this master was the only one who could be regarded as personally commanding a battle to cross the river, he was wearing a special red silk flying fish suit, a battle robe or something, but there was really nothing.
Who knew that Zhu Yingzhen laughed, waved his hand, and shouted left and right: "What are you doing in a daze, hurry up and wait for Gao Longwen to change clothes!" β
, you guys are really acting in full sets, and even the costumes are packaged?
Gao Shishi was just stunned, and saw that the cavalry brought by Zhu Yingzhen surrounded himself in three layers and three layers outside, and the tall war horse completely covered him, the person who stayed in the middle, and the outside could not see the situation inside.
Then a few cavalrymen jumped off their horses, unloaded a few small boxes from their horses, opened them respectively, took a set of straight bodies and armor, nodded and handed them to the Gao Pragmatic family members - they felt that their identity was not enough to help Gao Longwen change clothes, so they handed them over to the Gao Pragmatic family members.
Gao Pragmatic sighed, he was not afraid of changing clothes in front of people, not to mention that it was all men, but he felt that Zhu Yijun's play was a bit nonsense, and he didn't know if there was something he didn't know very well.
Zhu Yingzhen smiled and said: "Truth, this set of armor is specially tailored for you by my brother, don't underestimate it, it cost me six hundred taels of silver." β
Gao Pragmatic has a close relationship with Zhu Yingzhen, and said directly angrily: "Brother Yingzhen, don't brag nonsense, I think you were slaughtered and helped others count money, the armor of the Wang Family Ordnance Factory is much stronger than this, a set is only a few dozen taels, and your set of papier-mΓ’chΓ© things is worth six hundred taels?" β
Zhu Yingzhen shook his head: "You don't know this, this set of armor is light and light, it's not a paper paste...... Oh, don't ramble, hurry up and we'll be okay after the change. β
Gao Pragmatic asked while changing clothes: "Which play is the emperor going to sing today?" β
Zhu Yingzhen grinned and said, "Don't be afraid, it's not "Gongsun Zidu". β
Gao was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "Brother Ying Zhen, what did you do when you mentioned "Gongsun Zidu", and I didn't hurt people with a secret arrow?" β
