In June of the 29th year of Jianwen in the second year of Xuande, Yao Ji was conferred as a concubine by Zhu Yunwen, and his son was also named King Yuhuai, and his name was Zhu Wenbiao.
Zhang Ning didn't like the title of this title, it sounded so slim, but his second brother, Zhu Wengui, who had been locked in Fengyang for more than 20 years, was named King Runhuai, and it was not much better. There was no reason why his younger brother's title was better than his older brother.
As for the name, Jianwenjun's eldest son is Zhu Wenkui, and the second son is Zhu Wenkui; Kui should be a kind of star, and Gui and Biao are both a kind of measuring instrument. Jianwenjun's name means that the eldest son is a star in the sky, and other sons supervise and look up to it?
(Gui: The stereotype of measuring the length of the shadow that lays flat in the south and north directions. Table: The benchmark and stone pillar for measuring the shadow of the sun that stand upright on the flat ground.)
However, before Zhang Ning and his mother Yao Ji went to visit Emperor Jianwen, they were named, which shows that Emperor Jianwen recognized their status very much.
Perhaps as Zhang Ning speculated, even though Jianwenjun could not see the hope that he could regain power, it had improved. Jianwenjun wanted to be recognized by later generations too much, and he would not give up any possible hope.
Many people who had never masked and made friends sent letters to congratulate Zhang Ning on his title of king. Although there was no imperial palace that the court rewarded and there was no ceremony for the title of the emperor. The so-called fiefdom was also taken by Zhang Ning's own people with his own people, but the official title was undoubtedly of great significance. At least it was publicly recognized within Jianwen Yuchen, rather than just using the banner as before.
It just so happened that Yao Ji's 38th birthday was at the end of June. Although she was not going to hold a birthday party, some old ministers and female relatives also sent gifts, and a few even came to congratulate her in person.
Perhaps the title of the Imperial Concubine was also a gift from Jianwenjun, but such titles are no longer the same as before. When Jianwenjun was still in Nanjing, how many women in the world could pay for this title, especially those who were already in the palace, including Yao Ji, who dared not even think about it; but now it is like that, and it does not represent too many things.
Among the people who came to celebrate their birthday, there was a particularly important person named Zhou Li. She was the wife of Zhou Mengxiong, the general who followed Emperor Jianwen. She also came to Chenzhou with her second daughter Zhou Erniang.
That day, Yao Ji mentioned two things in front of Zhang Ning. One was to visit Jianwenjun, and the other was about marriage.
The most important person to follow Emperor Jianwen is Zheng Qia, and the military officials can only rank Zhou Mengxiong. This Zhou Mengxiong is unknown and has no reputation compared to the famous generals who fought in the battle of Jingnan. However, General Jianwen such as Ping An Shengyong has long been killed or killed in battle, and the remaining military generals who are still with Jianwen are only unknown people such as Zhou Mengxiong.
His reputation is not as good as that of a famous general, but he has been a major figure among Jianwen Yuchen for more than 20 years.
Yao Ji wanted to win over the relationship between their family and Yuchen Jianwen through marriage and establish Zhang Ning's status in the Zhu family's royal family. After all, Zhang Ning was adopted by the Zhang family for more than 20 years, and it was difficult for people to truly gain recognition if he didn't intend to manage it.
Because Zhou Mengxiong was in the army a while ago, Yao Ji also heard that his second daughter, was well-educated and polite, so she mentioned this matter.
On the other hand, Yao Ji believes that the Zhang family, who adopted her son, had not done their best before, and actually made him not married at the age of 20. In her opinion, this kind of thing was the responsibility of her parents.
There was a law in the Ming Dynasty that a man had a quick birth from the 15th day of his life. Zhang Ning was almost twenty-five years old and still had not yet gotten married. This was something Yao Ji had originally planned to do. The time came, and she was very concerned about this matter.
In any case, she cannot let her son become a laughing stock in other families.
When she mentioned this to Zhang Ning, Zhang Ning was not dissatisfied with it. This attitude made Yao Ji very satisfied.
To be honest, Zhang Ning was a little resistant to marrying a woman she had never met before. Who knows what the other person looks and personality looks like?
Although he mentioned that his appearance was too shallow, he felt that no matter men and women, he always had their own aesthetic views. If it weren't for the fact that there was no way, no one would want to spend time with a type he didn't like.
He heard that it was Zhou Mengxiong's daughter, so he remembered Zhou Mengxiong's bearded man...
When she met the Taohua Fairy at the official office, she also heard about the marriage. She looked very disappointed and took the time to mutter: My father was also the second-largest relative to Jianwen Jun.
Zhang Ning didn't know how to respond for a moment, so he ignored her.
She said again: It’s better for a woman to stay at home. No matter how powerful she is, she will not be recognized by people... But Sister Fang is affectionate with you, and you didn’t even say hello.
I will go to see Gu Chunhan in the evening.Zhang Ning said hurriedly.
He understood very well that people like Peach Blossom Fairy who ran around the world and Gu Chunhan who had been in the old courtyard of Nanjing would never be able to openly marry into the royal family. Even if Emperor Jianwen had fallen to hiding in the mountains and temples, the secular rules were still very effective.
He never thought of staged a farce for love. After all, marriage is just that, just be open-minded.
As a person with a background, the best choice is not to be a marriage, and ordinary people are similar, and they have been continuing throughout history.
Thinking about the fact that she had a blind date in her life hundreds of years later, the woman simply asked about her work income first, met people, and then went to her home to see her material conditions, etc., but that's all.
Since Yao Ji said that she had a good marriage with Zhou Mengxiong’s family, why should she refuse?
In the future, if you have a family, you will have the identities of husbands and fathers. People with families and families will be more likely to gain people's trust in their business.
Now he only hopes that Zhou Mengxiong’s daughter will not be too ugly. Since he has married her, he cannot neglect others too much. At least he must let his wife fulfill his responsibilities and add incense to the Zhu San family.
What's the point of Zhou Ernie... The Peach Blossom Fairy looks even more dissatisfied than Zhang Ning himself.
After hearing this, Zhang Ning suddenly remembered something and asked: Could it be that you have seen her?
The Peach Blossom Fairy nodded and said: I met once a few years ago, but she was really waiting. She hasn't gotten married yet when she is so old.
Zhang Ning wanted to use tactful words to find out about his appearance. There was no way, a young man always valued a woman's appearance, but after thinking about it, he asked directly: What does he look like?
That's it, it doesn't like you.
The Peach Blossom Fairy also has no disguise at all. She only remembers that her eyes are not big and her cold words are very difficult to get along with. A few years have passed, and it may be even uglier. How can a woman look better as she grows? Aren’t she all beautiful ladies?
As long as your facial features are quite upright, you should still pay attention to character and cultivation when getting married. Being upright and virtuous is the best, and whether you are beautiful is the second choice.Zhang Ning couldn't help but say in disappointment.
I want to say this from a man himself, it is so fake that it cannot be fake anymore.
Fortunately, Zhang Ning is under a lot of pressure now and is not very concerned about the private affairs at home.
If you lose on the battlefield in the near future and lose everything after returning to liberation overnight, who can care about whether your wife is beautiful or not?
A few days later, Yao Ji sent someone to the Zhuque Military Officer's Office to ask Zhang Ning to the Guifei Garden to treat her. This is strange. Zhang Ning usually depends on self-consciousness to ask her about her. This time, Yao Ji took the initiative to ask for something else.
Sure enough, the servant who delivered the letter reminded him: General Zhou’s family is here, and the wife asks you to change your body-faced clothes before going.
Zhang Ning suddenly realized as soon as he heard this, and thought that since it was a blind date, we had to meet each other first. Isn’t this the same thing?
Even in ancient times, the parents' destiny was not really a bridal chamber to meet for the first time. When Zhang Xiaomei went on a blind date, she had to gradually become a male son.
As for dressing, it doesn't matter. Zhou Mengxiong was almost a servant of Jianwen. He asked his daughter Mingmao to marry the Zhu family prince. What else would he not want to do? I guess Zhou Ernie would have any opinions.
Moreover, Zhang Ning remembered that he had no decent clothes. The most formal ones used to be the official uniforms. Now that he is not an official, he naturally cannot wear official uniforms. Because the royal dress is not available, he is not prepared. He usually wears the military uniforms of the Vermillion Bird Army, indicating that he shares the joys and sorrows with the soldiers.
He lowered his head and reflected on himself, and found that the clothes he was wearing were good now. From the green robe on the outside to the lining, they were made by my younger sister with her own hands. They were washed clean and there were traces of folding on the clothes.
The little sister made three sets of clothes for Zhang Ning, one of which was blue silk. She said it was not good-looking and forced to take it back. The other two sets were made of cotton, one set of gray and the other set of blue. The set of green has been worn for two or three years...
Zhang Ning felt it was very good when wearing the clothes made by her younger sister. She also vaguely wanted to express her inner thoughts. Who do she really valued?
So he went straight to the Imperial Concubine Garden in the east of the city.Under the leadership of the white-clothed guard, he arrived at a large house in the back garden. Yao Ji met Zhou Li's mother and daughter in the hall here.
When she stepped into the threshold, the first thing she saw was Yao Ji sitting in the front seat. She was dressed like she had never seen before. She had big red sleeves on the outside, a green base on the inside, and a phoenix crown on the head.
It was hot at the end of June, and she could really wear such a long and big clothes.
It is obvious that Yao Ji deliberately paid attention to the level of clothing in order to see Zhou Li.
She was not wearing a dress. The Zhaiyi in the imperial concubine's dress was characterized by a Zhaibi tattoo, but the regular clothes like this are complicated and formal enough.
Zhang Ning felt that he was wearing a cloth clothes for a moment. Will Yao Ji feel uneasy and make her sad?
Then he found two women sitting next to several cases in the west, most of whom were Zhou Li and her second daughter.
Zhou Li looked young, probably less than forty years old. Most of the women of this era got married very early. Zhou Li wore a uniform and had many complex specifications and decorations. He also worked as an official of the Ministry of Rites.
The little girl next to her is much more refreshing. She is wearing an ordinary light-colored skirt and has few golden jade items on her hair. The little girl should be Zhou Ernie.
Zhang Ning was slightly stunned when he saw it. Maybe it was because of the preconceived thought that Zhou Ernie looked ugly, but he loved it when he saw it with his own eyes.
The eyes are indeed not big and single eyelids, but they are very delicate against the backdrop of thin eyebrows. The small nose, thin lips, and a melon-shaped face have the purity of a girl.
He is also slim, not short, and has white skin.
This surprised Zhang Ning.
Zhang Ning didn't like the title of this title, it sounded so slim, but his second brother, Zhu Wengui, who had been locked in Fengyang for more than 20 years, was named King Runhuai, and it was not much better. There was no reason why his younger brother's title was better than his older brother.
As for the name, Jianwenjun's eldest son is Zhu Wenkui, and the second son is Zhu Wenkui; Kui should be a kind of star, and Gui and Biao are both a kind of measuring instrument. Jianwenjun's name means that the eldest son is a star in the sky, and other sons supervise and look up to it?
