The city of Malu, which had been lively all day, was still bustling after dark.

The direction of the Malu Palace is even brightly lit. Many dignitaries who appeared in the Crystal Palace during the day changed into gorgeous clothes and attended Lee Seung-ji's wedding in the Golden Hall.

Li Shichang and Li Xiao, who had not appeared in front of people for a long time, also wore festive and expensive dresses, smiling and congratulating the guests in the golden hall. Li Chengye and Degureba did not have the opportunity to attend Li Chengji's wedding because they were far away in Gansu.

But very early on, someone brought a heavy gift to express congratulations.

Unlike the people of the Central Plains, weddings in Khorasan are carried out according to local customs. It's just that Li Chengji's status is precious, so it is extraordinarily grand. Like Zhang Zhiqin, when she goes out, she doesn't need to wear a hijab. And there are no sedan chairs, only horse-drawn carriages.

Originally, according to local customs, he was supposed to ride a horse by himself. However, the royal wedding formulated by the Ministry of Rites draws on the customs and habits of many ethnic groups, and seems to be a combination of hundreds of schools, but they are obviously different. So they took a horse-drawn carriage instead, and the family men formed a family send-off procession.

Zhang Xinglu, who is an elder brother, personally walked in front of the team and sent Zhang Zhiqin to get married.

Although he and Li Chengji were very bad in the past, now that Zhang Timing is working under Li Chengji, Zhang Zhiqin is about to marry Li Chengji. With this relationship, he doesn't mind anymore.

What's more, when he was in Malu, Li Chengji deliberately eased relations with him. Although the two are not particularly close friends now, they are not the kind of enemies who are red-eyed when they meet.

Now that he is sending Zhang Zhiqin out, he is also happy in his heart.

After all, with this family affair, the honor of their Zhang family will be fine.

For this reason, he also sent Zhang Zhiqin 28 shops in Puhua, Malu, Yeli, Xiaye and other cities, as well as some Zhuangzi and pastures, all of which were given to Zhang Zhiqin as a dowry.

This is what he earned himself after doing business, and it is a part of his brother's heart. Zhang Zhiqin has a good relationship with him, so she will accept it. Zhang Timing also prepared a lot of dowry for Zhang Zhiqin, so that the whole world could watch it, and their Zhang family attached great importance to this family business.

Of course, Li Chengji will not let the Zhang family suffer in vain.

transferred some of the shops and workshops under his name to the Zhang family, which was regarded as a dowry.

Due to the early closure of the streets, the road is not congested. The time to go to the palace was only the time of a stick of incense. When he entered the palace gate, he looked up. There was a burst of emotion in my heart, but I couldn't say a word.

When he arrived at the Golden Hall, Zhang Xinglu personally picked up Zhang Zhiqin from the carriage. Zhang Timing walked in front and led them to Li Chengji.

Today, for Lee Seungji, it is both a state affair and a family affair.

Therefore, after Zhang Timing gave Li Chengji a courtesy, Li Chengji also saluted him. took Zhang Zhiqin's hand again and squeezed it gently. Zhang Zhiqin's eyes rolled and secretly gave Li Chengji a look.

The ministers of civil and military affairs in the hall also congratulated Li Chengji on his marriage. Li Shichang and Li Xiao, who were sitting on both sides of the dragon chair, took the lamb handed over by the waiter.

This is a newborn lamb with delicious meat. In Khorasan, where 60 percent of the people are herdsmen, cattle and sheep are an important means of survival.

Therefore, the man's parents cut the lamb meat for the newlyweds, which is a customary wedding ceremony in Khorasan. After Li Shichang and the others cut a thin slice, Li Chengji and Zhang Zhiqin ate it in front of everyone.

Drink the waiter's mouthwash tea again, and the ceremony will be completed.

But that doesn't mean it's over!

All the guests also congratulated Lee Seungji, and one after another. Judging from the ministers of civil and military affairs in the hall, there are definitely hundreds of times. There are also singing and dancing in the middle, which takes longer.

As the focus of marriage, Lee Seung-ji and Zhang Zhiqin are like bodhisattvas, and they need to sit on them to accept the congratulations of all the courtiers. So today, Li Chengji can be regarded as tired and home.

insisted on doing so until the evening, and Li Chengji drank some wine and was sent back to the dormitory. Zhang Zhiqin was already waiting, and her palms couldn't stop sweating.

And no wonder!

When you get married for the first time, it is inevitable to be nervous.

Li Chengji was a little dizzy, but he wasn't drunk yet. After being sent to the room, looking at Zhang Zhiqin's pretty face, my heart was also confused.

"Yizhi ······", Zhang Zhiqin looked at Li Chengji's eyes full of affection, and said with a shy face.

"Come on! Let's cave room! Li Chengji's mouth was full of wine, and he knocked Zhang Zhiqin down at once.

Then the incense tent slid down, and the spring was gloomy.

But this night, some people are happy and some are worried.

In the Hechun Palace, Zhuqing, who was named a young concubine, sighed in the mirror. Although he knew that Li Chengji would not come to her room tonight, when it really happened, he still felt a little uncomfortable. After all, on the first night of marriage, every woman wants to have sex with her husband.

It's a pity that the person she married is the lord of the ninety-five, the lord of the world. With the wife of the Zhang family here, she can only be a little low. Sometimes this is fate, and if you don't recognize it, you have to admit it.

With the same sigh as her, there are Degunaba and Aina.

But they are all self-aware, and although they are uncomfortable, they have to forgive themselves.

For several days, Li Chengji stayed in the harem night and night. Only when every woman is pampered once can it be considered pure.

And in the court, a new dynasty and a new atmosphere!

Along with the reform of the Yuan era, the Great Yuan also promulgated the first decree of the new dynasty.

That is, there is a cabinet above the six ministries, with the first assistant and the second assistant. Among them, there is one first assistant, and four to six second assistants are uncertain.

The rank is above the six departments, and it governs the central affairs. But the rank of the auxiliary minister is the same as that of the chief officer of the six departments, and it doesn't matter whether it is up or down.

Although this prevented the cabinet ministers from overwhelming the six ministries, in terms of power, the six ministries were still inferior to the cabinet.

Because the so-called central affairs of the cabinet can refer to all kinds of government affairs. From the central to the local, you can intervene. This right is much broader than six ministries receiving only one service.

In the future, it will be much easier for Li Chengji to deal with government affairs.

Another change is the establishment of a Privy Council under the rank of secretary, with one left privy councillor and five right privy councillors. It has the right to make suggestions on government affairs, but it does not have the right to make decisions.

Speaking of which, this is a supplement to the loopholes in the polity. The status of the Privy Council is also meaningless. This can be seen from the grade.

Then there is the adjustment of some functional departments. Especially as Khorasan takes a bigger step, there are different requirements for the handling of many government affairs. Breaking it down also helps to improve administrative efficiency.

When the courtiers saw Li Chengji's political adjustment, their first thought was whether their position could be moved up. Especially the cabinet ministers, who have been stared at by many courtiers.

The generals showed little interest in this, because military reforms involved everyone's interests. The most basic thing is that Khorasan will implement a fixed corps system in the future. In the past, the legion was temporary, but now that it is fixed, many people will have room for promotion in their military positions.
