Chapter 454: The Ministers' Admonition
Fu Zhu thought for a while and said, "Zhuge Jin is still in the post house and has not left. The lord hurried to go and finalize the marriage, it was not too late. ”
"Seriously?"
"Of course it's true. Don't you think it's a good marriage? Fu Zhu was a little puzzled, and Yuan Xi didn't seem to be very happy.
"It's a good marriage, but it's a pity that I can't afford it. Forget it. Yuan Xi sighed and sat down.
"Why?"
"I have children and daughters, and my family is happy and content, so why should I ask for trouble and marry another one? Again... I'm going to destroy Jiangdong sooner or later, have you ever thought about how I should face Sun Shangxiang in the future? ”
Yuan Xi's remarks, if placed in a few hundred years, may still be understood, but in the Three Kingdoms, it is completely incomprehensible. Because women at this time are very lowly, as a victim of marriage, it is normal. It was once recorded in wild history that in order to entertain Liu Bei, a person killed his wife and cooked it for Liu Bei to eat. Although it is a wild history, it is not true, but it also explains the status of women at that time.
Yuan Xi was unwilling to marry Sun Shangxiang because of Zhen Mi and Gao Ling, which was extremely unwise in the eyes of Fu Zhu.
"My lord, there have been cases of marriage since ancient times, so why should you be restrained? I believe that the two ladies will not stop it. For the great cause of the lord and the people of the world, the lord still married Sun Shangxiang. Frustrated.
"Your hat is buttoned big enough, and it's still for the people of the world? Is it that serious? ”
"Lord, you can agree." Frustrated and repeatedly persuaded.
"Let me think about it again..." Yuan Xi dropped a sentence and left as if he had fled. He regretted coming to the ministry and told him about the marriage.
Zhuge Jin was rejected, but he did not give up.
After he returned to the post house, he quietly revealed the news to the officials of the Sixth Ministry, as well as Zhen Yan and Zhen Yao's restaurant, Gao Ling's father's mansion, and so on.
When these people found out, they had a lot of speculation.
Zhen Yan and Zhen Yao were worried that Zhen Mi would make another old mistake, so they prevented the marriage between Hebei and Jiangdong, and hurried to see Zhen Mi.
Gao Ling's father was also worried that this would happen, so he called Gao Ling home to enlighten him.
The most outrageous thing is that the officials of the six ministries, as if they had discussed it, all thought that Yuan Xi should marry Sun Shangxiang and marry Jiangdong. So they played one after another and persuaded Yuan Xi to agree.
Morning meeting.
Fu Zhu mentioned again: "The envoy sent by Sun Quan is still waiting in the post house. Is it rude that the lord does not summon him? The minister thought that since he had formed an alliance with Jiangdong and had business dealings, the relationship between our two families should be further improved to make Sun Quan a powerful foreign aid for us. ”
Fu Zhu didn't say anything about marriage explicitly, but that was what he said.
"Further? What do you mean... Let me marry Sun Quan's sister? Yuan Xi asked.
"Exactly." Tian Feng came out and said: "The Jiangdong Naval Division is strong, and there are three rivers. It is not easy for the lord to take it in a short time. However, Yanzhou Cao Cao is very close to us, and he is an obstacle for us to seize the world. The lord should be from afar. first married Sun Quan, plotted to defeat Cao Cao, and then seized the world. ”
Guo Tu, the secretary of the Criminal Department, said: "The minister remembers that the last time he fought Goguryeo, the lord also refused to marry Goguryeo, but... Didn't you say yes in the end? ”
"Last time was last time, this time is this time. You can't talk nonsense. Yuan Xi's words were a bit threatening. Guo Tu was really frightened, and immediately didn't dare to mention the marriage again.
However, there are so many officials in the six ministries, many of whom are upright and resolute and not afraid of Yuan Xi, and these officials feel that the marriage between Hebei and Jiangdong is a great thing, so they decisively admonish.
They didn't care what Yuan Xi's attitude was, and they didn't care about the consequences of his advice.
"Lord, this is a match made in heaven!"
"Marriage with Jiangdong can ensure the safety of the people of Yangzhou, why doesn't the lord agree to such a good thing?"
"Jiangdong is too far away from us, so we should only make friends, not offend. Please also ask the lord to think twice. ”
.............
In just a few minutes, more than a dozen officials came out of the ranks.
Everyone's advice is similar.
In short, it is a good thing to marry Jiangdong, and Sun Quan should be promised.
Yuan Xi also knew that this matter was beneficial to himself and Sun Quan, so he had a sudden marriage. Originally, he resolutely refused to agree, because as a traverser from later generations, he has hugged left and right, and has two white and chubby sons and a lovely daughter, which is such a happy thing, and I can't think of it in modern times. Yuan Xi is already very content. But... Almost all the ministers persuaded marriage, and Yuan Xi couldn't help but waver. Is it that your thinking is too forward, and you should go backwards?
"Ahem..."
After pondering for a while, Yuan Xi finally said: "This matter is very important, let me think about it again." ”
"Let's all dismiss."
Yuan Xi got up and left.
...........
Night.
In the garden behind the state capital, Yuan Xi found Zhen Mi and Gao Ling and told them about the marriage.
"I didn't want to tell you because I didn't want to get married. But... There were too many ministers who admonished him, and they all felt that marrying Sun Quan was in line with the military policy of long-distance friendship and close attack. I still put forward this policy, and they will block me with this, and I cannot ignore their existence. So, I'm going to ask for your opinions, and if you don't agree, I'll find a way to say no. ”
Yuan Xi said and stared at Zhen Mi and Gao Ling in a daze.
I thought they would make a big noise, but who knows it's quite happy.
Zhen Mi said jokingly: "It's boring in the backyard on weekdays, if we can have one more sister, we can't ask for it." ”
"yes, yes... Husband, you can agree to the marriage. Gao Ling also said.
"Are you telling the truth?"
"Of course it's sincere..." They said in unison.
Yuan Xi sat between them, held hands and said, "I'll give you another chance to choose again." If you don't agree, I have the ability to refuse Sun Quan. He didn't dare to pick on my courtesy. But... Once you nod your head now, in the near future, the little sister of the Sun family will marry here and live with you. This is your last chance. ”
They felt Yuan Xi's strong love.
The original unwavering mind was loosened at this moment.
"Husband, do you want to marry Sun Xiaomei?" Gao Ling asked.
"Ling'er, if you ask like this, how will your husband answer? You forgot what we said we said.... Zhen Mi tugged hard at the corner of Gao Ling's clothes. Gao Ling held his mouth and said, "Okay, we support Fujun and marry Sun Xiaomei." ”
Yuan Xi sighed softly: "It seems that you are still unwilling." ”
Gao Ling said: "I really don't want to, but my father said well, the love of children is long, in front of Jiangshan Sheji, it is insignificant, if because of this incident, the husband's career is blocked, we are guilty." ”
"Hmm."
Zhen Mi also said: "My brother said that I must support my husband." ”
