Shandong family has seven surnames and ten families, and its influence is huge.

At the same time, talents from all walks of life have come out in large numbers, and the Ming Dynasty is thirsty for talents, just recruiting talents and filling into the six departments.

Shen Mengxi asked Cui Jin to mediate and assist Di Jingen in handling the relationship with the Shandong clan. Cui Jin's family is a branch of the Qinghe Cui family, and the crown princess has just given birth to a healthy boy, Cui Jin is ambitious, gladly accepted the order, and went to Shandong, a long and horizontal, not only made Di Jingen through the difficult integration period, but also said that the two hermits Confucianism went north to serve the Ming Dynasty.

Two great Confucians, one is Cui Xing of the Cui clan of Qinghe, and the other is Fan Yang Lu Day.

The two great Confucians adhered to Confucianism, the concept of the family, and the concept of male superiority and inferiority of women. Shen Mengxi smiled and asked Xue Chongyin to help the two of them get up, giving them extremely high courtesy.

Shen Mengxi highly admired Confucianism and the outstanding people of the land of Qilu, and said that the head of the five mountains is in Shandong, and the head of the Chinese literati must also be in Shandong. Won two for the great Confucian heart ironing.

Lu Tian has dabbled in Zen Buddhism, and the monarchs and ministers have a discussion, Cui Xing's generation is two generations higher than Cui Jin, a lock of white beard is sparse, he always really touches his chin, and is not willing to really touch it, "The old man goes north, one is to admire His Majesty, and the other is to ask for the grandson, please learn little, old and frail, I am afraid that it will not be used by the community, and I hope Your Majesty will forgive me." ”

"Where, the name of the gentleman, the whole world knows. Daming is fortunate to have Mr., the whole country is lucky. The sun and the moon are like grinding ants, and everything is resting. You look at the river outside the eaves, rolling from the east. The universe is infinite, the streamer flies by, and the two great talents are just applying what they have learned to the social country, so they will not come to the world in vain! ”

"Dare to ask Your Majesty, the name of the country is Ming, what is the rule of King Ming?"

"The name of the country is clear, and there is a layer of affection for me, which is inconvenient to say. The sun and the moon are bright, and those who are in the sky are not clear to the sun and the moon. As for the rule of King Ming, I dare not guarantee that it can be done, but the rule of King Ming should cover the world without seeming to be himself, and he will lend all things and the people will be relieved. There is no name, so that things are complacent; Unpredictable, and swim in the non-existent. ”

This is Lao Tzu's view on the emperor's governance of the country, that the king should cover the world without deliberately, and that the education is pervasive in all aspects, but it still makes the people feel unrestrained, and the merit is immeasurable but praiseless, and the supreme power is based on the realm of enlightenment, as if acting on a world where nothing exists.

During the conversation, the two Confucians gradually realized that His Majesty was not an ordinary woman in the back house, although they had never seen Emperor Wu, they also felt that the mother and daughter should be very different. Then he let go of his initial prejudices, took them seriously, and became respectful in his words.

Xue Chongyin is the crown prince, and according to the system, he can have one concubine, two Liangdi, and three Liangyuan. Compared with the Tang Dynasty, the prince is only a fraction, but the prince only has a woman by his side, a son and a daughter.

Some courtiers proposed to recruit virtuous concubines for the crown prince.

Shen Mengxi had asked Yin'er in private, but he had no intention of accepting a concubine. He also said that Danniang is in good health and will give birth to a boy in the future, and the Xue family will definitely not lack a boy. The crown princess Danniang was also a little frightened, knelt in front of Shen Mengxi, and said that she did not object to the crown princess.

Shen Mengxi didn't want to care too much, the two of them have a good relationship now, why should they be that wicked person, and if there are fewer women in the palace, there will be fewer right and wrong.

"This is a private matter of the prince, and there is no need to discuss it in the court." Shen Mengxi made the final decision.

"Your Majesty, this is not a private matter of the prince's family, it is a major matter related to Guozuo!" Bai Qiming, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, looked distressed.

"Then do you want to recommend a few noodles to me!" Shen Mengxi asked in a deep voice.

The entire hall was silent.

"I don't dare." Bai Qiming bowed his head.

"The upper reaches of the Yellow River carry sediment downstream, and there are often yellow disasters in the lower reaches, so Bai Shangshu should work more water control!"

"Yes......" Bai Qiming couldn't help but twitch his face and retreated.

"I am meritocracy, people-oriented. Resolutely reject nepotism! I swear that I will never bow my face, never send a woman to make peace with my neighbors, and the prince and the horse enjoy the supreme power, and I will also have to bear the responsibility of sticking to the national frontier! Everyone, you also need to be clean, honest and honest, and worthy of admiration! ”

All the officials in the main hall, including the crown prince, immediately knelt down and said in unison.

Shen Mengxi kept asking his second son, if there is a favorite person, regardless of his background, as long as he likes it, he will marry him as a concubine. But Jian Er just shook her head and said no, let A-Niang choose a family girl for him, which is conducive to the government.

Shen Mengxi faintly felt that his son must have a beloved and been hurt by love all these years, but looking at his secretive appearance, he shouldn't be able to ask. Jian'er is over thirty years old, and she can't say that she will not get married again. In the end, the two discussed and settled on the Zheng family in Xingyang.

Because of the heavy use of the Cui Lu family and the respect of the Ming Dynasty for the literati, the Zheng family also happily agreed to the courtship. Soon, King Ning's marriage was held in the Forbidden City of Youzhou, and in a month after the wedding, King Ning returned to Liaoning with Princess Zheng.
