Chapter 676: The Emperor's Eldest Son's Family Affairs
However, it was said that since Feng's birthday, Xiao Li found that there were more relatives who came to visit and walk around his house, and even many people who were not very close to him on weekdays brought their daughters to sit.
At first, Xiao Li had not yet come to her senses, but soon she realized that the noble ladies who came to visit were drunkards and did not mean to drink.
These noble ladies who had a very ordinary friendship came to visit, and it was the eldest son of the emperor in the palace who was looking at it. Unconsciously, the eldest son of the emperor will be fifteen years old after the New Year.
In recent years, the age of marriage in Chinese society has generally increased, but it is indeed time for both men and women to look at the age of fifteen, especially for women, if they are prepared early, they have already been booked at the age of twelve or thirteen.
But there was no silence in the palace, how could Xiao Li dare to assert himself. And after Xiao Li and Queen Li passed through the wind, they were stunned and alerted to the fact that their sister-in-law was really not what it used to be.
Xiao Li said that a few Mrs. Bohou came to visit, and Li Xiaomei was able to immediately tell the appearance and conduct of the daughter of that family.
It turned out that when Xiao Li didn't even notice it, Li Xiaomei had already made preparations.
"This woman from Zhang Chi's family is really called a handsome, her eyes are bright, and her skin is ......as fine as white jade," Xiao Li said while pity, such a good daughter is no longer in the queen's consideration at all, because Zhang Chi didn't let his daughter go to school at the beginning.
Zhang Chi is the confidant of the Emperor Taishang, he is not very old, and his ability is not bad. In the past few years, he has been in charge of the military department, although the power of the military department has been taken away by the Metropolitan Governor's Office in recent years, Zhang Chi, a general who has not led a day of soldiers, is also the deputy minister of the logistics department, and he is also an absolute power figure. Moreover, if Chen Ding can make a marriage with the daughter of the Zhang family, the Li family and the old people of the Emperor Taishang can also be regarded as establishing a bridge of communication, and they can calmly include those old people under their command. This group of people also deepened their intimate ties with the emperor, and both sides became sons and daughters. That's a lot of good things!
But the daughter of Zhang Chi's family can't meet the premise of Chen Ming's selection of daughter-in-law and son-in-law - she must have gone to school. The daughter-in-law has graduated from at least Sung Gyun High School, and the son-in-law must go to the next level.
Xiao Li sighed when she heard it, and Li Xiaomei also looked sad. If Chen Ding had made a family relationship with the daughter of the Zhang family, the lame leg in the support strength would be cured at once, and he would have changed from walking on one leg to absolute two legs. It's a pity, it's no fate.
Xiao Li persuaded Li Xiaomei and said: "No matter how much you should sigh, it's not the mother, how can the Zhang family be worthy, that is the little lady of the Zhang family is not blessed." If this matter is going to get out, it is Zhang Chi, an old antique, who should be laughed at. ”
Because of the difference in thought back then, he lost such a creation, and this matter was spread, and only Zhang Chi was laughed at.
Even in politics, it is very likely that Zhang Chi, who has always followed the emperor's instructions, will be labeled as an 'old school'.
There is no impermeable wall in the world, and when the internal performance of North Korea is sent to Nanjing, and then Chen Ming does not hesitate to dial it back, it will take at least three trips back and forth. The news that the eldest son of the emperor was going to see each other also spread throughout the city of Nanjing, and some good people even stared at the gate of the Li family to see whose wife would bring her daughter to the door.
At the same time, Chen Ming's criteria for choosing his daughter-in-law and son-in-law were also announced.
In the Nanjing officialdom, such as Zhang Chi, all those who sneered at Chengjun Middle School at the beginning are now vomiting blood in depression.
And after this news was made public, the enthusiasm of the whole country for children to go to school increased a lot in an instant.
Chen Ming, the emperor, is also professional. used his children's marriages as a medium, and ruthlessly filled in a weight for the reform of China's education.
In the early winter of October, the newspapers of all sizes in the city of Nanjing carefully counted the families of the noble and important ministers of the current dynasty, and listed all those of the right age, and as a result, some of them were put forward in this bureau regardless of how outstanding their children were.
Zhang Chi is on the list, which is really a very sad thing.
"Tell the General Administration of Press and Publication to do a good job of checking. The dignified members of the court were praised and degraded because of this matter, which was undignified. ”
It wasn't until Chen Ming spoke that the turmoil gradually subsided. But the emperor's true attitude can be understood by everyone, if the emperor really thought that it shouldn't be, then he should have ordered it a long time ago, why wait until the whole world is eager to spread it before shouting to stop?
Chen Ding's mood was not very good during these days, and he suddenly realized that he was really going to become an adult, which was about his daughter-in-law.
If it was put in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the fourteen or fifteen-year-old prince and elder brother would have already agreed to marry, and they would even be married. For example, Yongsi'er was only thirteen years old when he got married, and the Wulanala clan of Fujin was three years younger than him.
"Isn't my cousin older than me? Why didn't anyone propose to him? ”
Chen Ding now feels that whoever sees him has a faint sense of laughter, he is in school, and it is even more sharp on his back, like sitting on pins and needles.
Usually he dared to take his little brother to the girls' school to take a look twice, but now, he is as far away as he is.
His ears and eyes were filled with faint laughter.
"What are you talking about? Your cousin has been delayed, and your uncle's title has not yet come down, so you have to wait until you have a title to discuss your marriage. Otherwise, the woman won't give her back a bad reputation. ”
During Chen Ding's conversation with Li Xiaomei, Li Kun's eldest son Li Hao stood quietly on the side, he was wearing a moon-white regular dress, and he did not wear a gown on the outside, but only tied a blue belt around his waist, and the clothes and belt were embroidered with silver threads. Lined with Li Hao's taller and taller figure and calm temperament, it really makes Li Xiaomei more and more satisfied.
Li Hao was still young when he left Lushan, but after he was twelve years old, Li Kun no longer hid his family origin from him. With such a big secret in my heart, it takes a few years to press, and no matter how rough the nature is, it has been honed calmly and heavily.
It's like a little adult.
Compared with Li Hao, Chen Ding, who is already in the old city, is like a child. But that's fine, Chen Ming is quite satisfied. Li Hao's appearance as a little adult is not a good thing worthy of praise in his eyes, but a kind of suppression of children's nature, which is not conducive to the healthy growth of children's minds. Chen Ming thought it was beautiful when he looked at his son.
Chen Ding stretched lazily, grabbed a Xinhui orange from the lotus leaf-like jasper plate with some boredom and boredom, threw it up and down, stretched his neck to look at the happy younger brothers and sisters who were playing on the slide outside, and sighed like a worried adult.
This is not a royal palace, but an amusement park outside the palace. It took several months, hundreds of thousands of dollars, and in the winter, this thing was finally built. And once it was built, every rest day here became a world for the princes and princesses, and soon some of the young sons and daughters were invited to play. Within a few days, this amusement park became famous in the city of Nanjing.
Li Xiaomei looked at Chen Ding, who had a melancholy face, and sneered, "Where did you learn this lazy look?" If you sit or not, if you let your father see it......" Finally, he sneered.
Chen Ding disagreed, "Mother, there are no outsiders horizontally and vertically, what are you doing pretending to be a serious book?" ”
"It's a big loss to people who haven't sat like this. That kind of comfortable ......, whoever does it knows. ”
Of course, Li Xiaomei has not seen people like this, but it is already a very distant memory, she is serious, dignified and habitual, and when she sees this lazy ruffian, it is not a taste. "Sit down. Let people see what it looks like! ”
Chen Ding straightened his waist a little reluctantly, and Li Hao on the side finally spoke: "Auntie, don't worry, the eldest prince is a person who knows everything in his heart. has a good temperament, and will not offend people in vain, nor will they be bullied. In school, not only the homework is top-notch, but also the sports. But it has attracted a lot of people. ”
In the amusement park, this day is another day of singing and laughter. But Ryoichi Sato, who is in a hotel not far from the amusement park, has a sad face at the moment.
Not long after he arrived in Shanghai, he learned about the changes of the Dutch from the Foreign Trade Bank, and when he heard that the Dutch were going to turn against the British and make love with the Gallic rooster, Ryo Sato was about to collapse. Japan at this time was a very open Japan, and many people had a clear understanding of the international situation today, the ins and outs of these blonde and blue-eyed red-haired ghosts, and the situation in Europe.
Compared to the Kingdom of Great Britain, the Dutch now are a piece of air, and the two sides have turned their faces, and the Dutch can only be pressed to the ground by the British and rubbed against each other. But that's not what Ryoichi Sato needs to worry about, what Ryoichi Sato is worried about is just Japanese cotton.
Then a few days later, the Foreign Trade Bank reached out to Mitsubishi again, and they introduced a big cotton merchant to Ryoichi Sato. If Sato can represent Mitsubishi to conclude a trade contract with this cotton merchant, then Mitsubishi will not be able to worry about the problem of raw materials.
In these days, how good Chen Ming's mood is, how bad Sato's mood is.
Because the cotton merchant introduced to them by the Foreign Trade Bank has a very bad personality.
He seemed to have pinched Mitsubishi's life, and made a very, very excessive request, which made Sato itch at all.
The other party made a request to take a stake in Mitsubishi, which is too hateful. This is a standard robbery while the fire is fired, and it is a standard falling into a well.
If this were Japan, Sato would have used a knife to directly slash the opponent.
But this is in China!
Even if he hates it in his heart, Ryoichi Sato has to accompany the smiling face to meet each other again and again and invite each other.
During this period, Mitsubishi's situation in Japan was very bad, not only was the real market losing a lot of money, but after the news of the Dutchman's falling out with Britain reached Japan, Mitsubishi Textile's stock price in the stock market was plummeting.
Almost all of them abandoned Mitsubishi. Because the source of raw cotton is completely controlled by the Chinese, the lifeblood of the Japanese textile industry, what else does Mitsubishi use to fight with each other? Unless the shogunate is willing to open the country, but is this possible?
Closing the country to the outside world is Japan's national policy. How could it be possible to change because of a tiny Mitsubishi?
Mitsubishi's tragedy may be a trigger for a change in policy, but it will take a long time to make. And now Mitsubishi is on the verge of death......
Sato's body was under tremendous pressure, and this pressure kept him unable to close his eyes for many nights.
How many times did he wake up from a nightmare, he dreamed that Mitsubishi was bankrupt, he dreamed that Chairman Mino committed suicide by breaking his stomach, and he, Ryoichi Sato, as a sinner, finally jumped from the top of a certain high building.
Every time Sato is scared out of a cold sweat by such a nightmare. It's just that he is more strange, why is the place where he committed suicide like the roof of the China Foreign Trade Bank?
It shouldn't be.
Is it because there is still a hatred for China Foreign Trade Bank hidden in the depths of his soul? Was it because they introduced Mitsubishi to a cotton merchant who was difficult to handle?
If you really think so in your heart, then you are really wrong. Ryoichi Sato felt ashamed of the demon inside him.
Sato has already understood his opponent, and it can really be said that he is a big cotton businessman, because he not only holds the cotton production and marketing contracts of the military and civilian companies of the Central Plains, Northern Anhui and Qilu provinces, but also signs a large number of cotton contracts with the British.
Foreign Trade Bank was able to introduce such a big businessman to Mitsubishi so quickly, and the sincerity was full.
"Mr. Sato, please. Our chairman has been waiting here for a long time. ”
The sudden sound made Ryuichi Sato startled. After stabilizing his trance-like expression, he realized that another round of interviews had begun.
Chairman Mino gave him a lot of power, because Mitsubishi in Japan really couldn't support it.
……
The Chinese press is still very concerned about the situation in Japan, and Mitsubishi Boshoku is not only famous in Japan, but also has a certain presence in China.
It is a textile kingdom established on the basis of a large number of Chinese loans, and is the largest modern textile enterprise in Japan. But it is also the first enterprise in the entire Eastern world to play the slogan of expelling Chinese goods and supporting its own domestic products.
In China, there are many Chinese who are dissatisfied with the handling of the trade bank at this point, and feel that the managers there are completely broken brains. Raised a white-eyed wolf!
However, there are also many people who regard Mitsubishi's issue as a joke, and regard its success and development as a condiment, as a side proof of China's strength.
There are still many people who regard Sanye Pingbei as a person who sells his reputation and reputation. It is believed that Sanye Pingbei holds China's funds in one hand and China's textile technology in the other, and the textile kingdom developed according to this, this enterprise itself is full of a large number of indelible Chinese elements. But he still has the face to clamore for the exorcism of Chinese goods and support for Japanese domestic products, which is completely a mouth cannon from a commercial point of view, and it is completely advertising to attract people's attention. This man is a businessman through and through, and the pursuit of profit is his greatest goal.
What is anti-China and supports domestic products is a routine.
So at the moment, Mitsubishi's road to death is still very interesting to Chinese. Although most of the Chinese are scolding the famous Sanye Pingbei to see retribution!
Many Japanese in the security team and the standing team think so, and the Japanese mercenaries in the Black Ice Ocean even sneer at Mino Heibei. Like many Chinese, they think what is a domestic product? That is, from enterprise capital to technology, it is completely domestic, without a little foreign blood, and such a product is a domestic product, a real domestic product.
Shoichi Yoshida is such a person, so he doesn't feel at all about Mitsubishi's corner.
He had just returned to the city from the rainforest of Java to recuperate, and he didn't want to pay any attention to it. Compared with Mitsubishi, he is more concerned about his son's studies.
"Yaga, Yaga!"
Roaring loudly in anger, Yoshida brandished his saber and slashed a scarecrow in front of him beyond recognition.
He exuded a fierce anger all over his body.
Qingtian Shinze walked past the edge of the training ground, saw Yoshida Shoyi like this, greeted a black ice ocean security guard on the side, and asked, "What's going on?" Did Yoshida go crazy? ”
"Report sir. Yoshida Shoichi's son, Kokubun, failed the exam again. ”
"Again?" Aoda Shinsawa was taken aback. His face immediately became solemn, "Yoshida-kun has reason to be angry. That's ridiculous! ”
"Children don't know the hard work of the world. Can't they understand how hard their father worked so hard to get them to the school safely? I failed the Chinese language test, and the other results can be imagined! "Because all the test papers and questions in the Chinese language school are written Chinese Chinese characters.
"Hey Yoshida, don't vent your anger at the scarecrow. You need to go back to your home and teach your son a hard lesson. Qingtian Xinze inexplicably felt refreshed, as if his son only scored 65 points in the Mandarin test, which is already very good.
He is far happier than Shoichi Yoshida!
