Chapter 100: Forced Marriage (Page 1/1)

After Jiang Chuan listened to the words of the three of them, he already had a decision in his heart. Of course, he knew that Liu Ji's words were the most practical and could maximize the interests of the Ming Dynasty.

He is not a war maniac, and if a strong country wants to conquer other countries, it can use many means, economic, political, military, diplomatic and other means. In many cases, it is not simply by force that can solve all problems, but by combining various means with practical means to achieve the best results.

This time, in the Korean War, the arrogance and arrogance of the Fuso people that had just been generated by reunification were completely shattered, and this means that military means had already played a role.

All that remains is the time for political, economic, cultural and other means to be used.

"What the three of them said is very reasonable, and now that the country has just been pacified, it is really not appropriate to use force again. Since there is a better way, there is no reason why this king should not adopt it. This matter was led by Berwyn, with Su Zi and Hu Ruzhen assisting from the side, and I can see that a complete charter will come out. ”

The three of them stood up to take orders.

After saying this, I talked about the three Koreas. The attitude towards North Korea and Fusang should be treated differently at that time, the three kingdoms of Korea were vassal states of the daimyo in history, and this time the Ming Dynasty also got some benefits from North Korea, which was regarded as the sin of the three countries of Korea for neglecting the garrison.

However, after some discussion, several people still felt that they should give North Korea some means. In addition to the means of war, the remaining means that can be used are nothing more than economic, political, and cultural means.

In terms of economic means, such as barrier-free trade, reduction of customs duties, free use of ports, no suppression of Ming goods, low-price purchase of North Korean goods and materials, etc., dumping Ming goods in North Korea, etc.

Culturally, in fact, the degree of assimilation of the three Korean countries by the Ming culture has been very high, whether it is the government setting, or the imperial examination, etc., they are basically copied from the Ming Dynasty.

Even the content of the imperial examination is the Four Books and Five Classics, and the poems and songs are endowed with these, which can basically be called Xiao Daming.

Therefore, the three Koreans were congenitally inclined to the Ming Dynasty in their hearts, so they did not hesitate to rejoin the Ming Dynasty after the fall of the Manchu Dynasty.

At this point, the opinion of everyone is that the three royal families and nobles of North Korea can select their children to study in the Daming Tai Academy, and even participate in the imperial examination of the Ming Dynasty, become officials in the Ming Dynasty, and link the Ming Dynasty and Korea more closely from the top.

In addition, Liu Ji and Su Qin also put forward the suggestion of harmony. Of course, it is not from Daming to marry to North Korea, but to let the three countries of Korea select royal princesses to marry to Daming as another means of clamping North Korea.

Naturally, it is needless to say who to marry.

Regarding this point, Jiang Chuan was really a little hesitant in his heart, firstly, because he was about to get married, and secondly, he was still a little resistant to this kind of thing in his heart.

So he didn't respond to the two suggestions, and said that he would talk about it later.

The three of them glanced at each other, and they all knew that their highness had always been more conservative in the affairs of men and women, and it was surprising that they were conservative.

Let's just say that Liu Ji, Hu Zongxian, and Su Qin, the three old guys, have only been in the capital for more than a year, and everyone has at least two aunts.

Su Qin was younger and energetic, and even asked for an extra room.

Even Di Qing, who has always been serious, has a bed warmer in the capital.

The civil ministers and military generals under his command all have warm quilts, but our Royal Highness the Prince Regent has always lacked a hostess by his side.

Although everyone knows that there are many women around His Royal Highness, none of them have been included in the room so far, which makes everyone secretly anxious, and they don't know how many times they have discussed it in private, and they have also reminded Jiang Chuan in various explicit and implicit ways.

Seeing that His Royal Highness's meaning seemed to be about to avoid this question again, the three of them glanced at each other, and Liu Ji said first: "Your Highness, the affairs of Fusang and North Korea are not in a hurry. The old man thinks that the most urgent thing at the moment is the wedding of His Royal Highness. ”

"Your Royal Highness's wedding is not a marriage for ordinary people, but a major event related to the country's own people's livelihood. His Royal Highness does not dare to delay any longer, and it is still necessary to put it on the agenda as soon as possible. If you get married as soon as possible, you can give birth to a little prince as soon as possible, which is a great thing for stabilizing the hearts of the people in the society. Su Qin also agreed.

"What the two lords said is that there is a lot of discussion in the government and the opposition about the fact that His Royal Highness has not been married so far. It's just that a few of our old guys are anxious for His Highness. Your Highness can't excuse himself any longer. Hu Zongxian also persuaded bluntly.

Jiang Chuan heard that his head was a little big, and he had a sense of déjà vu that he was urged to marry by his parents and elders in his previous life.

He has been a little marital phobia since his previous life, and he has been procrastinating on his parents' urging to marry, and even often has the idea of not getting married for the rest of his life, always feeling that marriage makes life boring, and only a little chicken feathers are left.

Later, when I thought about it, the real reason why many people are afraid of marriage is because of poverty. If you get married and trap your whole life, the space for your life will become very narrow. When you are alone, you can live freely, but once you get married, you will be put on heavy shackles, and you will become a slave who lives for the family and children, and your life is almost all nullified, not to mention the quality of life.

In this life, although he is now the first person in the world, it can be said that there are no economic problems at all. But I didn't expect to be urged to marry in the end, and my marriage has become a major factor affecting the stability of the empire.

Getting married is for the country and the people.

In fact, if you think about it, not all emperors in history are like this, marrying wives is basically a political marriage, and there are few people who have feelings before marriage, and they don't even know how many times they have met.

As a halfway monk, he and Bai Jinxiu are also in free love, and the two are happy, but they didn't arrange for themselves to be an unknown person.

In the past, you could use the fact that the world has not yet been calmed down to shirk, but this time I was forced to marry by three confidants, and I couldn't find an excuse to excuse myself, so I could only nod and say: "Since the three of them said so, then find Qin Tianjian to see the day, and let the Ministry of Rites start preparations." ”

Bai Jinxiu has already returned with a letter, and will return to the capital in a few days.

As soon as the three of them heard Jiang Chuan's relief, they were immediately overjoyed, and glanced at each other, Liu Ji immediately took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and presented it to Jiang Chuan with a smile: "Your Highness, the old minister has already asked Zhang Jian Ling of Qin Tianjian, and he said that August 16 in two months is an excellent auspicious day for the zodiac, and it is appropriate to marry." The Ministry of Rites has already started preparations two months ago, as long as His Highness nods, we old guys will take care of the rest. ”

Su Qin also smiled and said, "Yes, if you are calm today, Your Highness should also enjoy the joy of humanity." Otherwise, we, the courtiers, can only go back and send those concubines back to our parents' homes. ”

Su Qin's words made everyone laugh for a while, Jiang Chuan was helpless, knowing that they were prepared, so he had no choice but to say: "It's all up to you, this king is waiting to be the groom's official." ”

Only then did the three of them bow down in unison and say loudly: "Your Highness is wise! ”
