Chapter 175: Freedom to Marry

Tang Qi really resigned!

The news shocked the government and the opposition, and for a while, the threshold of the Marquis of Anding was broken.

Everyone wants to know the inside story.

Obviously he has just made a great contribution, why did he resign?

Although the title is still there, there is no real power and no name, so what does it matter if you only have a title?

He didn't even have a nominal official title, and as soon as he approved his resignation, he moved out of the official office in the afternoon.

The subordinate officials were reluctant to have their old bosses and wanted to organize a meal together for some nightlife, but they were also rejected by Gao Leng.

This is total marginalization!

However, Tang Qi closed the door and did not mean to explain at all.

Wei Qing also took Princess Pingyang to run to Tang Qi's mansion every day, as if announcing on behalf of the Son of Heaven that resignation and falling out of favor are not the same thing.

Thanks to these two couples, the attitude of the hundred officials stopped at "curiosity", and no one dared to really gloat over Tang Qi's face.

A few people thought that Tang Qi and the Son of Heaven had a quarrel and wanted to share their worries for the king.

was also sent to the border county to direct the road repair under various pretexts.

Those who thought about Dahan Department Store didn't even have the opportunity to repair the road, so they went to prison directly!

came and went, and no one dared to twist Tang Qi's tiger whiskers.

The Anding Marquis Mansion, which has been lively for more than ten days, has finally quieted down again.

Noon.

Tang Qi finished eating under the service of Zhuo Wenjun, and someone came to report that it was Captain Yao who came to visit.

"Sick, what is he doing here?" Tang Qi wiped his mouth, "Please come in." ”

Since coming back from Shanggu County, Huo Qubing seems to have been stimulated by something, and he is addicted to military training and can't extricate himself, and he hasn't been out of the barracks for a long time.

"Brother Tang!"

The young man was wearing a dark martial arts uniform, and he broke in in a hurry, his face full of red light.

Zhuo Wenjun bowed: "Hou Ye and Captain Huo talked, and the slave retreated first." ”

"Well, I'll leave you with new things in the department store." Tang Qi said, "If you have bad intentions, you don't need to be soft no matter what your identity is." ”

"No."

Zhuo Wenjun didn't know what to think, and retreated with a blushing face.

Huo Quzhi squeezed his eyes: "Big brother, haven't you had a happy event yet?" ”

Tang Qi rolled his eyes: "The words of the matchmaker of the parents' orders, it's early!" ”

The feudal etiquette of the Western Han Dynasty has not yet developed to such a perverted level, but there are many processes that should be followed for marriage events.

Since he promised to give Zhuo Wenjun the title, Tang Qi didn't mind the trouble.

"It's just a concubine, what kind of matchmaker do you want." Huo Quzhi was surprised and said, "Are you going to marry her as a wife?" The Zhuo family is a family of businessmen, and it is a cheap business! ”

Tang Qi frowned: "What is she not hers, no big or small, she wants to be called an aunt!" ”

"Isn't that calling the eldest brother old!" Huo Qu was sick and unwilling to lower his seniority, "Sister-in-law is sister-in-law, uncle who said yes talk about uncle, I talk about mine!" ”

A 19-year-old guy who calls a 20-year-old an uncle?

Huo Qu will not do it if he is sick and killed!

It's not a family lineage, it's just making friends, why does Master Huo have to talk so clearly?

"Seriously, do you really plan to marry the daughter of the Zhuo family as your wife?" Huo Quzhi became serious, "You can think about it, Your Majesty may not agree." ”

Shinong Industry and Commerce is not a joke, the Han Wu Dynasty is not too long away from the Warring States Period.

The remnants of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty are still somewhat there, and the identity level is very strict.

The royal aristocracy, scholars, good families, commoners, untouchables, and slaves are clearly insurmountable.

Among them, the common people go up, and the high marriage and cheap marriage can still be tolerated, starting from the untouchables, and there are high walls built by law and secularity in the middle.

Unshakable!

Business is a lowly business, and no matter how rich a businessman is, his social status is equal to that of a pariah.

This is a national policy!

Tang Qi didn't care about this: "It's me who marries a wife and not His Majesty, what's the disagreement." ”

In modern times, marriage is as you like.

Since you are moved, and you don't plan to fight in the power field, why not marry the daughter of a businessman?

Besides, Zhuo Wenjun is a good woman, with both talent and sex, and she can be both inside and outside.

Most importantly, smart.

will not be like ordinary women at this time, crying and crying at every turn, she can be regarded as a "new-style woman" in the Western Han Dynasty.

As a modern person, let Tang Qi marry a well-connected lady, and then respect each other like ice.

It's really better to be single for a lifetime!

"You also know that merchants are not allowed to marry with the people, let alone the Marquis of Guannei?" Huo Quzhi said worriedly, "If you have to marry her, you might as well think of a way to get the Zhuo family out of business." ”

"Impossible." Tang Qi flatly refused, "The Zhuo family is the richest man in the Han Dynasty, and it has been suppressed because of the restrictions on the status of businessmen. ”

"Let the Zhuo family get out of business, it is to give them a road of wealth and power, and I will only come out of this when I am full!"

With the ability of the Zhuo family, what is the first thing after getting rid of the cheap karma?

Let your own children be officials!

After that, power and money are connected, and even the process of trading can be saved.

In layman's terms, it is to let Ma's father's son become a county magistrate, mayor or even provincial governor!

What is this trying to do, running into capitalism?

Not to mention that it's just to get out of the lowly status, and it's not to let them be officials.

No one is a lowly person, and he is qualified to show off his filial piety, and his daughter married the Marquis of Guannei.

Is it difficult to run a pro-people official for yourself?

It's not that the Zhuo family can't do it, with this qualification, some things can't help you!

"Find a way to get the Zhuo family out of the cheap business, that is to hand the knife to Your Majesty." Tang Qi sneered, "Are you pretending to be stupid or are you really stupid, is this for me to make a feud with Wen Jun?" ”

The nephew of the dignified son of heaven has grown up in the palace since he was a child, can he not understand this thing?

"Ahem, let's not talk about this yet." Huo Quzhi touched his nose and concealed his weakness, "Come here this time, Your Majesty asked me to bring you something." ”

As he spoke, he took out an official seal and a "letter of appointment".

Tang Qi was puzzled: "What do you mean, you still want me to be an official after you say that you have resigned?" ”

The outside world thought that Tang Qi's resignation was passive, and it was the result of Mingzhe's self-preservation after being hinted at by the Son of Heaven.

Only a few of Liu Che's cronies know that the consent of the Son of Heaven is really passive!

The attitude is so resolute, I didn't expect Liu Che to give up.

Tang Qi was not very happy: "If I say it, what if I am a fart?" ”

"Don't be angry yet, let's see?" Huo Quzhi pointed to the "letter of appointment": "It's not a real official, it's just a doctor." If you put on a name, you can't wait in peace, and the result is nothing, right? ”

"Give Your Majesty a face, so as not to look bad on the court's face. Or do you want to be a general? ”

A doctorate is not a degree, but an official position.

To put it bluntly, it is officially certified as a "knowledgeable person", no need to punch in, no need to sit at work, and usually stay at home to read and write articles.

It is a serious nominal official position, and it is generally held by other officials.

Or the teacher in Taixue will also have the name of a doctor.

Tang Qi thought about it and felt that if he didn't accept it, Liu Che might get his neck on the head, so he could only pinch his nose and recognize it: "Say it in advance, I will put the official seal in the house, don't try to command me to do things!" ”

Huo Quzhi smiled: "Of course." ”
