In a blink of an eye, it was the 27th, the auspicious day of the zodiac, and it was appropriate to get married.

Ning Xiu didn't believe much in these things originally, but how much has he believed since the crossing, otherwise how can he explain this kind of thing?

The wedding banquet was held in Qi's mansion, which was nothing.

After all, Ning Xiu had just purchased a house and was barely able to live in it, but it was a bit reluctant to manage a grand wedding banquet.

Qi Jiguang's popularity in the court is very good, so this wedding banquet is full of friends.

Ning Xiu looked around, and the guests who came to the banquet were all Beijing officials above the fifth grade, which was really big.

As the absolute protagonist of the wedding banquet, Ning Xiu naturally would not let people steal the limelight, and from time to time he stepped forward to bow to the guests.

Earlier, he had worshiped heaven and earth with Ling'er under the witness of Qi Jiguang and Wang Yuejiao and officially became husband and wife, and now he is just fulfilling the rest of the procedures.

Qi Jiguang was obviously in a good mood. Compared to those sons, what he loves most is this little daughter. His daughter's marriage has become his biggest concern.

Now that his daughter is married to Ning Xiu, a young talent, he can also rest assured.

It's just that the old father married his daughter, and he was a little lost in his heart. Qi Jiguang only felt empty in his heart, although he still had a smile on his face, he was a little unpleasant.

"Old Taishan is on top, my son-in-law toasts you!"

Ning Xiu walked up to Qi Jiguang at some point, holding his wine glass and smiling slightly.

Qi Jiguang bowed slightly, and also raised his wine glass and drank it all.

"Shoufu University Scholar, Zhang Ge is old!"

With the door official chanting, everyone's eyes looked in the direction of the Hanging Flower Gate.

Everyone in the DPRK and China knows that Qi Jiguang and Zhang Ju are political allies.

Therefore, on the day of Qi Jiguang's daughter's wedding banquet, Zhang Ju would come no matter what. It's just that they came earlier and later.

Facts have proved that Zhang Juzheng came neither early nor late.

If he came too early, it would not be in line with his status as the head of the court.

If he came too late, it would be disrespectful to Qi Jiguang.

Ning Xiu also squinted his eyes slightly, staring at the Hanging Flower Gate tightly.

In the blink of an eye, I saw a middle-aged man in a big red python robe striding in. Beside him stood a young man dressed in a moon-white robe.

This middle-aged man is naturally Zhang Juzheng, and the young man is Zhang Juzheng's third son, Zhang Maoxiu.

Everyone stood up to greet each other, their faces full of respect.

Regardless of what they think of this powerful first assistant in their hearts, there should always be respect on their faces.

"Yuan Jing, the old man is late!"

Zhang Juzheng came to Qi Jiguang, stroked his chin and smiled.

"Haha, uncle, you can come to give me face, please come inside."

Qi Jiguang was very proud in his heart. The status of the Ming military general is much lower than that of the civilian official, but he was able to obtain the title of the crown prince Shaobao, not only because he made immortal achievements in pacifying the southeast woes, but also because he followed the right person.

This person is Zhang Juzheng.

There are people in the DPRK who are good officials, and this is especially true for military generals.

With Zhang Juzheng as an ally, Qi Jiguang is not afraid of slander from those officials, and he can let go of his hands and feet.

"I've seen Elder Ge in my later life."

Ning Xiu also bowed to Zhang Juzheng.

"Speaking of which, the old man has also made a return to the moon."

Speaking of this, Zhang Juzheng couldn't help but feel proud.

At the beginning, he recommended Ning Xiu to Qi Jiguang as a son-in-law candidate. If he hadn't mentioned it, how could Ning Xiu have entered into such a marriage with the Qi family?

"Uncle, I have to thank you so much, this son-in-law is good!"

Qi Jiguang didn't hide his joy and laughed.

"Let's get seated."

Qi Jiguang ordered someone to lead Zhang Juzheng to the top, and this position has been vacant for Zhang Juzheng. Everyone knew this, and now that Zhang Juzheng sat down, they breathed a sigh of relief and sat down one after another.

"After this wedding banquet, I will go to Liaodong."

Qi Jiguang suddenly sighed.

Zhang Juzheng said with a smile: "Liaodong is vast, there are many miscellaneous hus, it is not as good as Jizhen to govern, Yuan Jing is busy." ”

Although he said this half-jokingly, it was not without reason.

Although Jizhen is an important town on the nine sides, the main defense is the Tatars.

Now that the Tatars are committing fewer and fewer borders, the pressure on Jizhen is much less.

But Liaodong is different, since ancient times, it has been a place of mixed hus, and the situation is much more complicated.

Even Li Chengliang, a famous general who was born and grew up in Liaodong, can only maintain balance.

Although Qi Jiguang is a famous general, he is not as familiar with Liaodong as Li Chengliang after all.

This transfer to Liaodong is naturally a long way to go.

Ning Xiu really wanted to remind Lao Taishan and ask him to pay attention to the Jurchens, especially the Jianzhou Jurchens.

This fishing and hunting tribe will rise to power in a few decades, threatening the rule of the Ming Dynasty.

But how did he speak?

You'll have to find the right time. A wedding reception is clearly not a suitable occasion.

"Uncle, when we go to Liaodong, we will have fewer opportunities to get together."

Qi Jiguang couldn't help but feel a little lonely.

The world thinks that he is just a lackey under Zhang Juzheng, but how do they know that he and Zhang Ju are brothers who cherish each other.

This kind of brother-friend relationship is incomprehensible to ordinary people.

Zhang Juzheng drank a glass of wine, but stopped talking.

After a while, Zhang Juzheng spoke again and said something to encourage the newcomer. Ning Xiu also respectfully toasted Zhang Juzheng.

Zhang Maoxiu has been frowning, obviously thinking that his father has drunk too much today.

Lang Zhong once instructed his father to drink less, because drinking too much hurts his body.

He wanted to persuade his father to drink less.

But on such an occasion, how can the words be spoken?

Isn't that a slap in the face for my father? That's disobedience, and you can't do it.

In desperation, Zhang Maoxiu had to hope that his father would drink less, and from time to time he gave Ning Xiu a look and told him not to toast anymore.

Ning Xiu naturally understood, and smiled apologetically at Zhang Maoxiu.

Anyway, the protagonist of this wedding banquet is Ning Xiu, and he toasted Zhang Juzheng with a few glasses of wine. Next, Ning Xiu, under the leadership of Qi Jiguang, greeted the guests and toasted one after another.

Most of these people Ning Xiu had never seen them, and only listened to Lao Taishan's introduction one by one, and then said a long admiration, and then toasted.

At this moment, he realized the benefits of having a prince Shaobao as his father-in-law.

How could an ordinary person have access to so many officials? This kind of connection is something that some people can't get in their lifetime.

And he Ning Xiu, because he is Qi Jiguang's fast son-in-law, has formed so many good fates on the day of the wedding banquet, although he may not play much role in the future career, but there is always one more way.

Isn't it the connections and ways that officialdom fights in the end?

Whoever has a wide network and more roads will be able to have the last laugh and hold important positions in official residences.

is to want to enter the cabinet, in addition to the unreliable Zhongzhi, don't you have to rely on the court push?

In the end, it depends on connections.
