The young officials smiled awkwardly.

As a courtier, it seems too much to decide the marriage of the princess in private.

Well, it's just embarrassing.

After all, the Heavenly Family has no selfish affairs, and the Lord and the faction were able to force Princess Renfu to go to Liaodong before, so it is not unreasonable for the main battle faction to let Princess Renfu marry Xu Shisong.

After all, it seems that the princess herself still trusts him a lot, and would rather stay in Xu Shisong's barracks than return to Lin'an.

"Xu Shiliu and Xu Shisong are easy to say, they are in Jiangnan after all." Weng Shuping continued: "What about Jiangbei Xu Shiyang? The military horses of Qi Province have almost nothing to do with us, every soldier and soldier are recruited and trained by the Xu family themselves, and those soldiers and horses only know the Xu family and do not know the imperial court. ”

"The marriage with the Xu family needs to be done as soon as possible."

文中 says:

"Isn't the girl of the Xu family already here? The fourth brother and her marriage were arranged in advance, and then the younger sister was married as soon as possible. ”

"Then ......, well, once our side succeeds, we will ask the Xu family for credit - after all, they defeated the Tartars and achieved the first side of the Great Zhou, and it is not impossible to give their family a governor of Qi Province."

"As long as the Xu family accepts it, it will accept the leadership of the imperial court, and we will send another overseer here."

Everyone nodded together, that's all that can be done at this stage, if you want to control the Qi Provincial Army more deeply, you have to look at their own means in the future.

"Xianggong." Zhang Mingyi said at this time: "When the time comes, I will go to Jiangbei to supervise the army." ”

He has a good relationship with Xu Shiyang, and he is one of the cores of the younger generation of the main battle faction, and he is still a Jinshi, and his loyalty to Da Zhou is undoubted, so it seems appropriate for him to go to Jiangbei.

Wen Xianggong nodded: "Since Mingyi Mao recommended himself, then you can go when the time comes." ”

Zhang Mingyi's eyes lit up.

He is a jinshi, and as a civil official, there is no problem in terms of knowledge.

But if you are too young, if you become a ruler at this time, you will inevitably be scolded as a "lucky advance", and if you go to Jiangbei first to achieve some military merits, the situation will naturally be different.

Looking at the current situation of the provincial army, it seems that it is not difficult to divide military exploits at all.

Wen Xianggong picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said lightly: "Let's do this first, let's not let the scholars wait too long." ”

The poetry meeting has begun, and everyone is always here to discuss these issues, and it doesn't seem to be good.

"Yes, yes, yes! After this time, I am afraid that everyone will not have such a chance to have fun! ”

The young officials stood up together, bowed their hands to the minister, and then turned to go to the poetry meeting.

Wen Xianggong shook his head helplessly.

What does it mean to not have a chance to have fun? Do these young people feel that the big thing has been decided, and they will definitely occupy a high position in the future imperial court?

Also, if something big doesn't work, they don't work hard, but indulge in pleasure?

Why is there no sense of crisis at all?

Just like those children of the Xu family, everything is in a hurry, whether it is fighting a war or studying.

……

There are no rules for the poetry club of the Wen family, and all the scholars and guests can walk around the garden of the Wen family at will, or enjoy the flowers, or drink, or compose poems, and enjoy themselves.

There were small tables under the flowers, at the edge of the rocks and waters, with fruit, snacks and wine, which the scholars could use at will, and the servants of the Wen family would also have a good eye for supplementary food—this kind of buffet-like evening party was learned by Wen Zhong from a Western guest, who he thought was perfect for less serious occasions and could be enjoyed to the fullest.

Therefore, the more relaxed banquets of the Wen family are all done like this, which is indeed quite interesting and very popular with young scholars.

In order to increase the interest, there are also small notes hanging on the branches of some conspicuous corners, some are puzzles similar to lantern riddles, some are half-poems, some are pairs, anyway, they are all small games of literati.

If they are interested, the scholars can solve the puzzle or pair the verses, and give them to the waiter to send them to the specially built stage in the courtyard, where there will be a popular Qing man from Xiaofanlou who sings the answer and name of the solver on the spot, and the Wen family will also present a small gift with both hands - all of them are pen, ink, paper, inkstone, etc., which look simple, but they are expensive gifts from the hands of famous artists.

Of course, the more important gift is that scholars with better works can chat with the core of the main battle faction like Wen Zhong and Zhang Mingyi, and get acquainted with each other.

If you are really talented, you can even get a personal interview with Wen Xianggong.

In comparison, the favor of the people of Fan Lou Qing is much inferior.

After all, now that the main battle faction faintly has the capital to fight against the main peace faction, everyone thinks that it is very likely that Wen Xianggong will enter the cabinet again.

In the small corner of the courtyard of the Wen family, Hengbo, dressed in a green shirt and dressed as a man, sat quietly on the stone bench, looking at the stage in a daze with his hands on his cheeks, where his former sisters were singing aloud about a famous genius composing the Mid-Autumn Festival speech on the spot.

The words were catchy and gorgeous, so much so that the famous prostitutes invited by Xiaofanlou looked at their companions who were qualified to sing this song with envy.

Baume & Mercier needs famous prostitutes to be famous, and famous prostitutes also need Baume & Mercier to support them, which is what they need.

In the past, Yokoba also liked this kind of game, but now, she seems to be a little interested in this kind of game between talents.

"Why don't you go and have fun?" The girl in a beautiful costume walked over with a lot of manners and said with a smile: "Did you like this kind of game before?" ”

"I used to like it." Transverse wave replied.

"Don't like it now?"

"Not really." Yokoba thought for a moment, and then said, "It's just that after so many things, I now feel that poetry and poetry don't seem to be very reliable and can't protect me." ”

Yokoba feels that he seems to be a little bad this year.

was harassed by a Tartar before, if Xu Shiyang hadn't been present at the time, I am afraid that he would have been captured and ruined by the Tartar.

Later, Fang La's rebels invaded Lin'an, and a team of people rushed into Fanlou to capture many sisters, and she and Ru hid in the firewood room and were almost captured.

Later, it was Xu Shiliu's Shunyi army that happened to pass near Fanlou, which saved them.

After these two events, Yokoba had little interest in the game between literati.

In this world, Jiangnan is not a peaceful and stable paradise.

Not far to the east of Lin'an, there are hundreds of thousands of officers and rebels fighting each other, but they still do not delay the scholars to play this kind of crepe game during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

"That's my sister." Hengbo suddenly said: "After the Mid-Autumn Festival, I want to go to Jiangbei." ”

"Huh? Going to Qi Province? This is not surprising, as Yokoba has made similar statements many times over the years.

"Yes, I'm going to Qi Province to find Xu Shiyang." Heng Bo nodded.

"However, I heard that he is going to marry a girl from the Wen family."

"It's up to him to be a concubine and a maidservant, as long as you take me in." Hengbo made up his mind: "Originally, I was not qualified to be a wife, and being a concubine is the best destination." ”
