Chapter 499 Five Princess Consort Wu Mian
Hanshen was not very well-known in history, but he was the loyal king of Hami Kingdom in the Ming Dynasty and the son of Tamerlane.
He is not a Mongol, he is a Uighur.
In the eighth year of Chenghua, he succeeded his father as the right governor, but Nuwen Dashili still held the real power, and Hami's government decree had nothing to do with it.Sutan Ali, Turpan Khanate, defeated Hami, and Nu Wenda was captured in a loss, and the gold seal was taken.
Hamiwei moved to Kuyu.
That place is actually an enclave, and Da Ming doesn't pay much attention to it, and it's far away from each other.
But it is different now, Emperor Xianzong is absolutely unwilling to lose any territory in his hands!
He sent someone to contact Hanshen, the son of Nuwen Dashili, and gave him money and firearms. After practicing for a few years, this Uighur with a particularly strong vengeance, immediately brought people back with great ambition to kill him!
In the 18th year of Chenghua, Hanshen led Hamiwei, Handongwei, and Chijin Mongolwei to conquer Hami City, and then conquered eight cities to restore their homeland.
Emperor Xianzong was overjoyed and promoted him to be the governor of the left.
And reward ten thousand catties of grain, one thousand taels of silver, and one hundred taels of gold.
There are even a lot of cloth and cotton, which are commodities that are in short supply on the grassland.
In addition, there are some glass products, silk and satin, milk candy, white sugar, salt and tea.
It's not that it's not rich, as soon as the list of rewards came out, many people were envious, but he could be regarded as regaining his homeland.
But Wu Youwei remembers this person, he is a bit silly, because according to historical records, in the first year of Hongzhi, Emperor Xiaozong of the Ming Dynasty appointed him King Zhongshun.
In the same year, Sutan Ahima, the Turpan Khanate, pretended to be married to him and trapped him to death because he was not a Mongol (in fact, he was not a descendant of Yuan Taizu).
Wu Youwei hurriedly told Wantong that he noticed this person because he heard from a classmate that he was a graduate student of "History of the Ming Dynasty", and some of the strange things were heard from him, especially this Hanshen, I remember that classmate and the others made a special analysis. If this Hanshen is still there, Daming will have a ruthenium in Xinjiang.
And the reason why this Hanshen was lured and killed was actually because he had no confidence, and he was fooled as soon as others said it.
In fact, what does it matter if he has Mongolian blood or not?
Look at Manduogule, he is still of mixed blood, isn't he still doing well on the grassland?
"Since he wants to get married, then let him marry me, Da Ming!" Wan Tao said, "Didn't Man Duo Gu Le also marry my Daming woman as his wife, and now the children are all running around."
Miss Guan was married, she became pregnant in the first year, and gave birth to a fat boy in the second year!
Manduogule finally had an eldest son.
There are successors in the Mandulu tribe.
"Da Ming doesn't practice marriages." Wu Youwei said, "Manduo Gule, is it the same as Han Shenneng?"
"Same, same!" Wan Tao said, "I promise that he will marry my Daming woman willingly and faithfully."
Wu Youwei was confused.
Wantong smiled and touched his dog's head: "Hey, is the apricot forest blooming? Go and see it?"
"Oh, there are a lot of bees over there, and picking apricot nectar is very good..." Wu Youwei was changed from the topic, instead of thinking about things he couldn't understand, he should think about the things in front of him. , he likes apricot nectar.
The aroma of apricot blossoms is rich and fragrant, and the nectar of apricot flowers is also very sweet. Wu Youwei asked people to raise beehives to collect honey in the forest. He can get some honey every year, and then divide it and give it to his close ones.
There is also apricot pollen, which is also very good.
Jiazi, Emperor Xianzong once again exempted Shanxi from the summer tax.
In May, Shandong and Nanji were exempted from taxation and grain.
Spring plowing had already taken place around the Dragon Boat Festival, and another wave of zongzi was given out. This time, it was even more innovative. Some people put candy cubes in it. Wu Youwei ate one and was very happy.
Wantong lowered his head and smiled, and ate a rice dumpling filled with red beans.
After the Dragon Boat Festival in May, the weather became hotter. Wu Youwei took His Royal Highness to make a few palm-leaf fans. Although they were very ordinary, Emperor Xianzong took the palm-leaf fans made by his son to pay tribute more carefully than that. Every tribute fan should be favored, and I will not let go of it every day, and when it is not too hot, I will hold the fan.
In June, Renyin, Wantong was called again by Emperor Xianzong: "My daughters are also getting married when they are old."
Wantong's face was full of black lines: "Fifth princess?"
"There are also the sixth, the seventh, the eighth and the ninth." The tenth princess is Princess Fengyang, but Princess Fengyang is not too young.
Wantong was not happy: "The fifth princess is still young!"
"It's not too young." Emperor Xianzong knew Wantong's thoughts: "You can't bear it, and I can't bear it either, but there's no other way. When a child grows up, he should start a family and start a business. Now it's much better. No one in the Princess Mansion is under the control of slaves. Now I can see my son-in-law as much as I want, the princesses have children, I am content!"
Now the life of the princess and the son-in-law is better, the princesses also have children, no matter male or female, they finally have a queen, he is also happy to see it.
This happiness gave the sons-in-law good looks and some rewards. If they treat the princess well, the emperor will treat them well, and if they treat the princess badly, the emperor will ignore them.
Wantong was still reluctant: "Okay, but it seems inappropriate for these princesses to choose a son-in-law together, so it's better to choose alone."
Emperor Xianzong understood that because the fifth princess and the crown prince were siblings, and they were the sons of the imperial concubine, of course it was different.
"Yes, select them individually!" Emperor Xianzong gritted his teeth and selected them separately. Although spending some money and working hard, it was better than having his daughters picked and picked. Although he was comparing them in his heart, he was not happy.
After Wantong went back, he told Wu Youwei during the meal, and Wu Youwei sighed leisurely with his cheeks propped up: "It would have been nice if it had been a few years earlier. In this way, my girls and daughters would be able to choose one of them." Alright."
Wantong: "...???"
I also chose a son-in-law, because the life of the princesses is much easier now, and the folks no longer regard the "son-in-law" as a jackal, but they are not active.
But with the imperial list, no one can resist.
Throughout July, Wantong has been busy with this matter, the most important thing is to investigate some people. Jin Yiwei has no other work to do in the past two years, and it is all used to investigate the future son-in-law. However, the ministers feel that Wantong The Commander of Jinyiwei has done a good job, there are no unjust, false or wrongly decided cases, let alone arresting people everywhere.
It's good to investigate the emperor's future son-in-law, the princesses also want to marry a good family, and even more so.
In addition, Wantong knows how to be a man, and the candidates he investigates are all small officials or ordinary people from the country gentry, and there is no and no need for high-ranking officials....
Some people even want to marry their daughters, so they go to Wantong to ask for a document, at least to find a child from an innocent family, with good conduct, and Wantong also gives this convenience, so in this kind of matter, Wantong made friends Quite a number of officials felt sad when they said it. Even Emperor Xianzong acquiesced in this matter.
Autumn and August Gui Chou, the first interview of the selected personnel, this time His Royal Highness also went, Wu Youwei also followed, similar to the first time Princess Anguo chose a son-in-law, this time because it is the fifth princess, more people came If you miss this selection of consort, you can only count on the Fifth Prince to marry a wife.
So all the good ones came, and Wantong rewarded those who knew they were inappropriate and came to the election with [-] boards, and beat them back.
After August [-]th, the son-in-law was selected. To everyone's surprise, the son-in-law came from Wujia Village!
"What?" Wu Youwei was also stunned: "How is it possible?"
The selected person is the eldest grandson of Wu Er's family.
That child is already a Juren, but the exam is very reluctant, Jinshi is no longer expected, and he doesn't plan to take the exam, so he works as an agricultural teacher in Taowen Academy, teaching and researching agriculture.
Some small and practical agricultural implements have been developed.
"How is it impossible?" Wantong said with a smile, "This is the son-in-law chosen by the fifth princess herself."
The last hurdle, of course, was to ask the fifth princess to meet someone, but in fact, she secretly took a look through the screen. Among the ten candidates, the fifth princess fell in love with Wu Mian at a glance.
That is, the eldest grandson of the Wu Er family. This child Wantong certainly knows that since he was a child, he has not been very smart and knowledgeable, but he is good at farm work and is more interested in how to farm.
He is a nine-foot man with a dignified appearance and good health. He has not even caught a cold for such a big man, and he is very active in exercising on weekdays.
In addition, he is honest and has a loyal face, standing with the other nine is particularly abrupt.
Because the other nine were born differently from him, the worst one was the son of a squire, or the kind of squire and landlord for at least three generations; the best one was the cousin of a certain princess, who was also a fifth-rank official in his family A son of an official family.
He is handsome and has a chic personality.
Just because I don't want to be an official, I think about Princess Shang, who has a noble status and will not restrain herself, the pen and ink painting that the official's children like.
Create your own Danqing and so on.
As a result, the fifth princess didn't like it!
She took a fancy to Wu Mian at a glance.
"This... this... this is really... the fate of man, it is destined!" Wu Youwei sighed very much.
Back then, Wu Er and the others saved them because Mr. Wu was kind-hearted for a while, but didn't let them be enslaved by the government, and they were still good citizens.
Therefore, Wu Mian, the eldest grandson of the Wu family, was eligible for the imperial examination.
Now he can be a consort!
Wu Er's family probably never dreamed of such a beautiful thing.
Sure enough, when the news reached Wu Er's family, Wu Er was in a daze.
Stumbling up the mountain, he entered Moling Villa to find Wu Youwei: "No, patriarch, what should we do?"
princess hey!
"This is a good thing. Wu Mian will definitely take over the Department of Agriculture in the future. He is not a high-ranking man, and some things are not easy to arrange. Now that he is a son-in-law, his name can be reported for everything he researches in the future. Great achievements!" Wu Youwei said happily: "In the future, it will definitely go down in history!"
Wu Mian was indeed famous in history. With his whole life, he researched the world's first "tractor".
But now, he is also in a daze.
He never thought that Princess Shang would run for election. In fact, there was nothing he could do about it. Wu Village couldn't always rely on Wu Youwei's relationship to avoid elections. People would criticize him after a long time, so he went.
All the way through, he thought it was Wantong who was letting the water go. After all, his conditions were not the best. At the last interview, he still thought, after losing the election, he would go back and have a look at his improved tomato seedlings. He entered the cultivation room, he was improving tomato seedlings, what are red tomatoes?He wants a green tomato!
This kind of mutant tomato is rare, and he only has a few plants now.
When he was serving him, he heard someone announce the good news to him: the son-in-law has been chosen, and it is him!
"Is it okay? How much dowry is this?" Wu Er almost cried: "Everyone is counting the dowry."
After the eldest daughter-in-law found out about this, she didn't cry, but began to rummage through boxes and cabinets to prepare for the dowry. The emperor's daughter didn't know how much dowry would be enough to be satisfied.
Wu Youwei was overjoyed: "There is a fixed number of betrothal gifts, don't worry!"
As the patriarch of the "Wu family", Wu Youwei gave 10 taels of silver to Wu's family on behalf of the "clan": "This is from the clan, don't worry about spending it!"
Wu Er burst into tears of gratitude: "Hey!"
He didn't refuse, because he knew that it was useless to refuse, and the patriarch said exactly what he said.
After so many years, everyone is used to it, and the business of Wujia Village also has the patriarch's shares.
Moreover, the patriarch does good deeds every year, and Wujia Village also participates.
Wu Youwei said: "I also gave it to you personally, don't worry, I promise that your family Wu Mian will treat the princess well in a generous and beautiful way!"
A princess cannot use "marry", only "shang".
The Five Princess Mansion had already been built, and Wu's family began to prepare for the dowry. Wu Youwei poured out all the top-quality sheep fat jade in his space. The Mu family and his son have carved many things over the years.
Mr. Mu even carved a whole set of wedding utensils over the years, which is his masterpiece.
Wu Youwei deliberately poured it out, and said to Wu Mian: "Put it in the princess mansion, it's high-end!"
Wu Mian felt embarrassed: "Sir, let's leave it to Mingde?"
"He's not in a hurry. I'll give you this. You can't put everything in the Princess Mansion. It's not good. They will definitely not be happy." Wu Youwei said: "Princess Wu grew up rich and precious, so she may have a bit of a princess temper. , but you have to be considerate, you are a man, be more generous."
The princess must be spoiled and spoiled, I hope this is not a "barbaric" princess.
"Yes." Wu Mian blushed: "The dowry has been prepared, and they all come as required...."
Speaking of the preparations for the marriage, Wu Youwei attaches great importance to it, marrying the princess, hehehe, Wujiacun will be famous in history after that.
While the Wu family and Mo Ling Villa were actively preparing, something happened in the court.
Xinyou, free of tax and grain from the disaster in Henan.
This is a common practice. Once a disaster occurs in a place, Emperor Xianzong will reduce or exempt the tax, tax and tax of that place.
Anyway, there is no shortage of things in the mouths of the people in the court.
But it can win the love and appreciation of the local people.
Emperor Xianzong's name of "benevolent monarch" can be regarded as left behind.
However, Renshen in the leap month, the deputy envoy of Cang should ask Raozhou to stop burning the imperial ministers, go to prison, redeem and return his post, and refuse to go up.
In fact, it was this deputy envoy who secretly sold the technology of making glass, and more than one family sold it. Glass is a huge profiteering industry, and its raw materials are sand and gravel, which are everywhere. It can be researched by burning, and the formula is very simple.
Daming porcelain has reached its peak, and the kiln masters are all experienced, especially because he still works in a glass factory and is in charge of glass firing.
After being imprisoned, his family moved around and wanted to redeem their original jobs with property. As the saying goes, money can pass through the gods. Unfortunately, this glass industry is one of Emperor Xianzong's major income, how can it be easily bypassed? he?He did not agree to redeem it with silver. After all, he earned the silver by reselling the glass formula, and the glass formula was given to him by Wu Youwei, which hurt not only the personal interests of Emperor Xianzong, but also Wu Youwei. Yes, as well as Wu Youwei's group who have all entered into the shares, so many dignitaries have been lost, who is responsible?
I don't know who guided them, but their family actually asked Wu Youwei here.
"I don't know him. What's more, I dedicated this glass prescription to the emperor. This matter...it's up to the sky. Let them go. I don't have that much measure and ability. w Wu You Because he didn't even meet him, he let the housekeeper Lin Su politely invite him away.
The family didn't give up, and even found out the location of Wu Youwei's house in Beijing, Jinshi Lane, and found out that he was living next to Commander Jin Yiwei, so they were scared off.
They even went to beg Wu's family, but unfortunately, not everyone can enter the gate of Wu's village, so the family had no choice but to turn around and beg others.
Good news came from the south again, the second prince, oh, the king of Japan, has taken office.
And because he brought a lot of money with him, he bought food, and when he took office, he "comforted the people". Those people who were hungry ate raw fish. I don't know how happy they are to have rice!
In addition, I have followed hundreds of teachers in Shanghai, all of whom can speak Japanese, teaching them to learn Chinese characters, speak official language, and be loyal to the emperor and patriotic.
And because the royal families in Japan don't have surnames, even the records in historical materials are very vague...
In addition, there are many small countries complaining about grievances and being harassed by Japanese pirates.
However, Japan has re-established its political power and is still in the process of replying. It is "incapable" to govern the affairs of Japanese pirates at all, and can only let them "act cheaply".
However, how could those small countries be the opponents of the vicious Japanese pirates?Not to mention the beatings, they were also looted, and even the Japanese pirates killed their royal family...
"So serious?" Wu Youwei was surprised: "Aren't they defeated generals?"
"That's for our Ming Dynasty, and for foreign countries, they are the masters of tigers and wolves." Wan Tong said: "I heard that they are planning to seize a territory of a country and re-establish a political power."
In Japan, they were just big names and small names, but in other places, they can completely call themselves kings and hegemons.
"Does my Daming just look at it like this?" Wu Youwei said angrily: "After all, Japan has become Daming's... just let them revive?"
"Of course not." Wantong knew this person, and his political sense was not sensitive, but he knew about the future, so he had some foresight in advance.
But in this matter, he is still a blank slate.
"Then...?" Wu Youwei didn't understand.
"Let the Japanese pirates make trouble. It's better to kill all the royal families who belong to the country. Then I will be the suzerain of the country..." Wantong actually didn't want to tell Wu Youwei about this dark politics. But he knew that Wu Youwei had a knot in his heart, which was the "World War II" when Japan invaded China in later generations, so he couldn't help but tell him, lest he get angry and hurt himself.
"Oh, oh, I understand." Wu Youwei understood this time, and said enthusiastically, "Then hurry up! I hope that in my lifetime, I can see King Ming come to the world."
"Yes." Wantong hugged him into his arms: "I will definitely!"
