After Sun Jiao resigned three times and was rejected three times, he was summoned by the emperor to the court on this day.

It can be regarded as giving Sun Jiao a bigger step.

「…… Sun Qingjia, you are an old minister, I need a capable minister like you to lead the household, now is the time for the imperial court to reform the maladministration, open source and reduce expenditure in all aspects need to do things, with you, you can deter Xiaoxiao, let the world return to the heart. Please don't refuse anymore, and give me a chance so that I can revive the glory of the Ming Dynasty......

Zhu Si personally persuaded Sun Jiao to accept the position of Hubu Shangshu in front of many ministers in the court.

This is already the highest courtesy of Wenchen.

Sun Jiao has continuously refused official positions, on Yang Tinghe's side, he can be regarded as having completed the "confession", no longer need to worry about Yang Tinghe thinking that he is "wanting to refuse and welcome", at this moment he is already riding a tiger, if he still refuses the emperor, then his Sun family will really be unlucky.

"The old minister is old and old, and he is really ......."

Words are not speculative, Sun Jiao is still obsessed.

The eunuch Zhang Zuo, the eunuch of the celebrant who held the seal, took a step forward and said, "Elder Sun, there are many old ministers in the court now, and you are all the cornerstones of the Ming Dynasty.

"This ...... The old minister...... I tried my best to live up to His Majesty's expectations......

At this point, Sun Jiao can be regarded as officially accepting the official position.

……

……

The court meeting ended.

On the way out of the palace, Sun Jiao was surrounded by many officials to congratulate.

Sun Jiao has nothing else, the prestige is still there, at the beginning he was more because of Geng Zhishi's straightforward advice, offended Emperor Zhengde and the group of ministers, his return can be said to be "the hope of the people", those who don't like to get involved in court battles, with a little neutral nature of the ministers are naturally welcome, even if Yang Ting and the faction's sworn friends, they all feel that Sun Jiao's return to the court is not a bad thing.

This is where Yang Tinghe worries.

Up to now, there has been no formal communication between Yang Tinghe and Sun Jiao, and Yang Tinghe doesn't even know what Sun Jiao's political attitude is.

Arrived at the cabinet duty room.

Xiao Jing, the eunuch of the celebrant and the pen, appeared, and Yang Tinghe was going to discuss things with Jiang Mian, but when he saw Xiao Jinglai, he could only put aside the matter at hand first.

「…… Our Lady of the Queen Mother decreed that Your Majesty is not young now, and the country is just safe, so it is time for Your Majesty to complete the big wedding as soon as possible, and let the Ministry of Rites set the time and people as appropriate, and arrange the auspicious time and the number of wedding ceremonies."

Xiao Jing explained the situation as soon as he came up.

In order to distinguish between Empress Dowager Zhang and Empress Dowager Jiang, Xiao Jing used a set of rhetoric that had not appeared in the official before, which could be regarded as a redefinition of the identities of the two empress dowagers in the palace.

In this way, everyone can understand that the person who is anxious to marry the new emperor is not Empress Dowager Zhang, but Empress Dowager Jiang, the emperor's biological mother, because she is the only "Holy Mother", and the emperor's mother is anxious about her son's marriage.

"Please come back, the ministers have made a note!"

Yang Tinghe took the order and looked very formal.

……

……

Send Xiao Jing away.

Fei Hong leaned over and asked, "The Queen Mother is so concerned about His Majesty's marriage, does she have any intention of marrying the ministers of the court?"

One sentence picks out the key points.

It is impossible for the Queen Mother to propose to the new emperor to get married early at this time for no reason.

Now there are two reasons for mentioning it.

One reason is that after Empress Dowager Jiang entered the palace, her presence in the court was relatively low, and she wanted to use this to justify her name and let everyone in the world know that she was the real queen mother and had the right to make decisions about her son's marriage.

The second reason is that Sun Jiao returned to the court.

When the Empress Dowager Jiang entered Beijing, she almost used the "kidnapping" method to bring Sun Jiao to Beijing, and also brought Sun Jiao's daughter to come, and at today's court meeting, Sun Jiao finally agreed to perform his duties after several resignations, and it is estimated that the Empress Dowager Jiang thought that the most appropriate time to marry Sun Jiao had appeared.

Mao Ji said: "Your Majesty's wedding, as a rule, cannot be used as an alternative to the ladies of the court's four grades and above, and this matter should be carried out by the Ministry of Rites in accordance with the past practice. The first is not to be in a hurry, and the second is not to break the rules."

The Ming Dynasty has a set of selection of relatives, and the ladies and ladies in the famous eunuch family cannot be used as candidates for the queen, especially in the civil official family.

The national abbot will be the earl before, and when he arrives at Xiaozong, he will begin to be a marquis, you are a civil official, not only have prestige in the court, but also want to get the hereditary title of military position, then the influence on the court is too great, and it is easy to form a group of relatives who cannot be dropped, so in the Ming Dynasty, the selected queen family is the general literati class, and most of the middle and lower-level officials and the daughters of prisoners are selected.

First of all, the family background must be innocent, and then the posture, etiquette, etc., and the best thing is to have a reputation for filial piety.

To put it more bluntly...... It depends on who is clever enough to know the official in charge of the Ministry of Rites, or who can stuff the silver.

Didn't Empress Dowager Zhang come up like this at the beginning?

In front of Fei Hong, Yang Tinghe wouldn't say much, but when they each sat down, Fei Hong and Mao Ji took turns to go back to rest first, and then come back to watch the night in the afternoon, Yang Tinghe said to Jiang Mian: "You must not let Your Majesty and Sun Zhitong have the possibility of marriage."

Jiang Mian immediately understood when he heard it.

……

……

Hallym Courtyard.

Zhu Hao is still continuing to repair books, and his life is extremely leisurely.

It's much more relaxed here than when I was studying in Xingwangfu, it seems that there is something to do every day, and it seems that there is nothing to do every day, except for the first time I am not too embarrassed to skip work, everything else is fine.

It is estimated that after half a year after entering the Hanlin Academy, he can fish for three days and dry his nets for two days, and ask for leave from time to time, but now he still has to pretend to be dedicated, and get a colleague.

"Zhu Hao, come out for a while."

Zhu Hao was still reading a book there leisurely, when Yang Shen suddenly arrived and called Zhu Hao out.

Compared with Zhu Hao's "diligence", Yang Shen's old fritters like the Hanlin Academy are a little too reserved, ten days and ten days, Yang Shen's time in the repair room adds up to less than half a day, and occasionally he comes and goes in a hurry, and at first glance, he doesn't take the affairs of the Hanlin Academy too seriously.

After Zhu Hao came out, he didn't see anyone else.

Yang Shen said, "Today Sun Lao has returned to the court."

"Oh."

Zhu Hao nodded, "When Elder Sun arrived in Beijing, he resigned several times, and His Majesty did everything possible to keep him, and he couldn't prevaricate for too long."

Yang Shen agreed with Zhu Hao's statement.

In other words, any minister has no reason to refuse if he is so courteous to the emperor, and if he is still obsessed with this, he will be embarrassed.

Yang Shen said: "Today, the Queen Mother of Our Lady issued a decree, saying that she wants to complete the wedding for Her Majesty as soon as possible."

Zhu Hao asked puzzledly, "Shouldn't this matter be decided by the Empress Dowager?"

"Here's the problem."

Yang Shen was very satisfied with Zhu Hao's words, and continued, "Now Your Majesty is deliberately alienating the Empress Dowager with filial piety, and taking the words of the Empress Dowager as a golden rule, and the direct consequence of this is that the will of the two palaces is not distinguished, making people unclear about His Majesty's ancestry."

Zhu Hao thought to himself, saying so much, isn't it still to find fault with the emperor in terms of gifts?

Zhu Hao said: "When I was in Anlu, His Majesty was still the prince of the palace at that time, and I heard that the Xingwang Mansion intended to marry the family of the old Sun family, but it was Sun Lao who refused, and now the Queen Mother proposed the matter of His Majesty's marriage at this time, is it related to Sun Lao's return to the dynasty?"

Yang Shen smiled and said, "You can see it too? That's what I expected...... The rules of the Ming Dynasty are that the daughter of an important minister cannot be married to His Majesty, let alone a person designated before the wedding, and the daughter of a concubine is the queen, which has already been customized."

There is no need for Yang Shen to explain, Zhu Hao also knows the rules after the election.

Although the post-election rules of the kings of the Ming Dynasty are slightly different, they are roughly divided into "sea selection", "primary selection", "fine selection", "selection", "palace selection", "concubine selection", "selection", and "kingpin design".

In the election, that is, the three people who "choose three", even if they do not choose the queen, they will definitely become concubines, or even concubines, and there is even the possibility of canonization as the queen after the death of the queen in the future.

Of course, there was also a precedent that when Xiaozong was selected, the two who were selected three and lost were sent back by Xiaozong.

Because of this kind of post-election momentum, those who can't be elected may be filled into the court as palace maids, except for those who have no status and want to take advantage of this to get a high position, who would be willing to ruin their daughter's lifelong happiness?

You must know that after this set of post-election processes, only one person will win in the end, and the rest will have the opportunity to be honored by the emperor to become concubines, at most there are only ten or twenty people, even if you want to climb the dragon and attach the phoenix, it is similar to winning the lottery, only for speculators to gamble.

"What if the Queen Mother and Her Majesty insist?" Zhu Hao asked.

Yang Shen said: "There is no precedent for such a thing, if the rules are broken, the kings of later generations will follow suit, and it will form a deep-rooted and intricate influence of the friends of the DPRK and China, and a sign of the powerful and the powerful rebelling the country."

The words are nice, but the problem is that the little emperor insisted on so many things before, didn't they become a reality one by one?

"Zhu Hao, I asked you before, you are not married yet, right?"

Yang Shen suddenly diverted the topic.

Zhu Hao thought to himself, when you asked me this, I really didn't have a good heart.

Is this for me to compete with the new emperor?

I became the "rival of love" of the new emperor, not only tying me to your boat, but also ruining the dream of the marriage between the Empress Dowager Chiang and Sun Jiao, which is simply a good plan to kill two birds with one stone, but the question is whether you want to sacrifice my interests, do you know?

Zhu Hao said: "My mother will arrive in Beijing in the next few days, and my mother has to make decisions about marriage."

Yang Shen smiled and said, "You probably know what I'm talking about, and I also expect that Old Sun Butang will definitely not agree to the marriage proposal of the Queen Mother, and there are so many twists and turns in the matter of Sun Lao Butang's return to the dynasty, how can he break his principles in such a matter that concerns his reputation behind him?" In fact, you are a good match for the youngest daughter of the Sun family, but it is also ......."

"Brother Yang, this matter ...... Let's not mention it."

Zhu Hao refused.

Zhu Hao is a modern person, no matter what Sun Jiao's family background is, his thinking resists the form of arranged marriage, why can't he make his own decisions in terms of spouse?
