"Hahaha! Why did Brother Xian come? ”

Seeing the arrival of his brother, the Emperor of the Apocalypse walked quickly down the high platform of the throne, and intimately took Lin Pingzhi's hand and came to King Xin.

"Look, brother!"

"This is the husband I personally chose for my niece, you are satisfied!"

The emperor smiled when he spoke, and in his tone, he even selectively forgot that it was Lin Pingzhi who took the initiative to ask for the sect daughter.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse, who was satisfied with the stable situation created by the eunuch ministers in the years of his rule, now spends most of his time indulging in the small world of his own "Yanshi carpentry".

However, due to the experience of growing up with King Xin as a playmate in childhood, the Emperor of the Apocalypse has always attached more importance to the brotherhood with Zhu Youzhen.

"Brother, brother······"

Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, who originally wanted to say something against it, had just opened his mouth to confide a few words, when he happened to see the side of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, holding the holy decree with the seal in both hands, and Wei Zhongxian, who was walking over, with a warning look.

"Believe the prince, this time the emperor not only made an exception to make your daughter a princess."

"It's a great reward for Lin Yuma!"

Wei Zhongxian came to the side of Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, and unabashedly spread out the holy decree that had just been written for him to see, while the emperor was watching with a smile on the side, without the slightest intention of stopping this transgression.

Zhu Youzhen glanced at the holy decree, and suddenly sighed in his heart.

Then, he had to give up his prepared refusal rhetoric, forcibly put on a smiling face, and continued to the Emperor of the Apocalypse.

"Brother Huang's arrangement, the younger brother is very satisfied!"

Over the years, Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, as the only prince of the clan who stayed in Beijing when the Emperor of the Apocalypse had no children, deliberately maintained a low-key style and had nothing to do with the court officials, so the Emperor of the Apocalypse actually did not know the ambitions and ideals in the heart of his brother.

In the eyes of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, this time he can be said to be extremely generous, and he was crowned a princess with his niece and rewarded Lin Pingzhi with great gratitude, which not only fulfilled the face of Lin Pingzhi, a rare champion in history, but also expressed his goodwill to his brother Xinwang, which can be said to be complete to the extreme.

Therefore, the Emperor of the Apocalypse did not notice the helplessness of King Xin when he answered that he was satisfied, and he thought that he had done well enough.

After continuing to talk to King Xin and making some arrangements for this wedding, under Wei Zhongxian's reminder, the Emperor of the Apocalypse happily returned to the harem and continued to do his carpenter's work.

The three royal clan elders followed the Emperor of the Apocalypse and also walked out of the main hall, but when they left, the one who walked at the back stuffed Lin Pingzhi with a Kuimu plaque with silver silk stripes.

"Lin Juma can have this kind of cultivation, and his talent is really extraordinary."

"According to the rules, this thing should have been given to you at your wedding, along with the decree of the reward."

"It's just that we have a good opinion of you, and nowadays, we don't care about these false courtesies."

"I'll give it to you in advance!"

After the sect elder finished speaking, he shook off the letter king Zhu Youzhen beside Lin Pingzhi, gave him a look, motioned for him to explain to his son-in-law, and then left the hall with the others quickly.

When the emperor and the elders of the sect left completely, Zhu Youzhen and Lin Pingzhi, the king of letters, glanced at each other.

After seeing a trace of helplessness in each other's eyes, the two suddenly felt a little sorry for each other in their hearts.

Zhu Youzhen, who secretly got close to several Donglin elders in Jingshi, himself admired Lin Pingzhi very much for the Donglin scholars who were "red and miaozheng", so the matter had come to this point, and the holy decree of Emperor Chrysostom Yuyan had been written, and he could only admit the result that Lin Pingzhi became his daughter's husband.

"Put it away!"

"This is the reading token of the secret volume of the Yongle Canon."

Aside from the others, looking back at Lin Pingzhi, a handsome and extraordinary son-in-law, Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, did feel extremely satisfied in his heart, he walked out of the hall with Lin Pingzhi, and said to Lin Pingzhi as he walked.

"There is a copy of the "Yongle Canon" in Beiping Da Nei, but the original volume is in Nanjing Yingtianfu, with His Majesty's will, you will have time to check it in the future."

"Pingzhi understands, Father-in-law Xie solves his doubts!"

After Lin Ping's salute, he took the opportunity to ask Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters.

"However, the original volume of Nanjing, which my father-in-law said, my son-in-law had the opportunity to consult it, but my emperor arranged for my son-in-law to serve in Nanjing?"

Note here that in this time and space with a background of extraordinary power, probably because of the historical influence of "personal power concentrated on one's own body", a well-known literati or high-ranking magnate like Lin Pingzhi is qualified to "marry" the princess from the Ming royal family.

And if it is not a person of Lin Pingzhi's identity, for example, most of the royal horses of the Ming Dynasty before Lin Pingzhi are not qualified to use the word "marriage" to describe it, except for the early establishment of the Ming Dynasty and the few surnamed horses of Taizu during the Taizu period, most of the horses in the middle and late Ming Dynasty are just some merchant children selected by the eunuchs from the people.

This kind of previous identity is just a "concubine" of the common people, and they don't have the qualifications to "marry" the princess to the emperor at all, they are more like the sons-in-law of the people, just entering the clan.

In this case, the so-called "concubine" is actually not a high status, when marrying the princess, he even has to kneel down with his parents to worship the princess, in the face of relatives and friends and daily titles, it is impossible to directly call the princess's father Xinwang as his father-in-law and call himself his son-in-law like Lin Pingzhi now; They can only call him a prince and call themselves villains.

"Pingzhi, you are really as Mei Ning said, very smart."

Hearing Lin Pingzhi's question, Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, replied slowly with a hint of shame in his eyes.

"You guessed right, before marriage, according to the custom, you will be enshrined as a Hanlin official from the sixth rank."

"But after your marriage to Yu Ning, the imperial brother will be crowned the commander of the horse and promoted you to the commander of the filial piety guard, and the right attendant of the Nanjing Rite Department."

The "Captain of the Horses" in the mouth of King Xin is a noble title that all the horses of the current dynasty will obtain, a position above the earl and below the marquis. As long as this thing is a colt, it is equivalent to a white-collar worker.

But this "commander" and "right attendant of the Ministry of Rites" are terrible!

One is a military position and the other is a civilian position, and the grades are all positive three grades. This is no longer as simple as upgrading three levels in a row, from the sixth grade to the third grade, which is equivalent to a full eight grades in a row!

Donglin's only surviving old man Li Biao in Beiping, Beijing, is only on the same level as Lin Pingzhi after marriage in terms of official rank.

Moreover, in the current social environment of noble civil and low military positions, perhaps most people in the outside world will not pay attention to the military position of "Commander of Xiaolingwei" at all, but just take out the civil position of "Right Squire of the Nanjing Ministry of Rites", the emperor is undoubtedly giving Lin Pingzhi a real gift.

Even if it is only the position of the Sixth Department of Nanjing, even if the right attendant of the Nanjing Rite Department does not have any actual power, in the eyes of the high-ranking officials and magnates in the Beijing Division of Beiping, it is just a position for the elderly.

However, whether it is the treatment on the official face or the status on the surface, the right attendant of the Nanjing Yingtianfu Rite Department and the right attendant of the Rite Department of the Beiping Jingshi are essentially no different, and in the eyes of the majority of grassroots scholars, they can be called real, unattainable high-ranking civil officials!

To put it bluntly, there are so many champions in all dynasties, not to mention the third grade, and even the people who have not been mixed with the official position of the fourth grade until their death, they have all grabbed a lot of them!

It can be seen from this that no matter what the purpose of the Emperor of the Apocalypse and the eunuch party is, they are indeed using practical actions to give Lin Pingzhi, the "champion" of one of the highest achievements of the literati, and the generous courtesy he deserves, which is really not a mistreatment of him.

After hearing King Xin's words, Lin Pingzhi's steps paused, and his complexion changed slightly, but he regained his calm in an instant.

Lin Pingzhi's calm move at this moment made Zhu Youzhen, who was secretly paying attention to Lin Pingzhi's expression on the side, nod in his heart, only to feel that Lin Pingzhi's temperament was really calm.

Faced with the bad news that he entered the "nursing home" in Nanjing, Lin Pingzhi recovered his agitated mentality so quickly, which is especially valuable for a young man who has just passed the championship!

Alas, if it weren't for the fate of this son and entering the clan, maybe what kind of achievements he would have in the future.

I am a great Ming, and I have lost a good talent!

Thinking of this, Zhu Youzhen's heart was a little more depressed, and when he looked at Lin Pingzhi's son-in-law, his eyes were also a little closer.

After all, the imperial city is the core of the eunuch party, and then, the topic of the two Weng and his son-in-law turned to some interesting things in Beiping City.

Because of the identity of Lin Pingzhi's literati leader "Champion" and Donglin Shizi, King Xin did not put any princely shelf in his conversation, in short, the two got along harmoniously along the way, and walked together outside the imperial city until they returned to their homes separately.

······

Looking at the carriage of the Shin Wangfu, he slowly drove away in front of him.

The dusk sun of the afternoon illuminated the entire imperial road of the capital division.

Lin Pingzhi, who walked into his carriage, didn't have to suppress his emotions until this time, and the corners of his mouth curled up with a good-looking arc.

Perhaps except for Lin Ping, who cheated on the historical data of later generations, none of the nobles of the Jingshi could have imagined that the Xiaoling Guard, which was ignored by everyone, would burst out with great power in the future.

This is the reason why Lin Pingzhi's expression changed suddenly when he heard that his future position turned out to be the commander of Xiaolingwei!

If it weren't for Lin Pingzhi, who appeared in the normal flow of history, if it weren't for the remnants of the Xiaoling Guard at that time, with fewer enemies and more enemies, desperately dragging the footsteps of the elite soldiers of the Daqing Eight Banners, then the small court of the Southern Ming Dynasty in history would not have been possible at all!

Don't talk far.

The sound of clattering horses' hooves flowed in his ears, and Lin Pingzhi in the carriage recalled the historical record that the system transmitted into his mind, and his heart fluctuated, and he sighed secretly.

"It's really time, fate, and luck!"

"That, it's Xiaolingwei!"
