The Prodigal Son of Zhenguan

For example, the man who got a loan of one million yuan to get married, "his family was always poor", in order to marry a daughter of the Lu family of the Jia clan...

He had no money, his family was poor, he didn't think of marrying an ordinary wife to live a good life, and he wanted to marry the daughter of the famous Lu family.

The key is that the daughter of the Lu family is only a concubine of the family.

Then why did this man go to such great lengths to get a loan to marry a wife?

What he saw was nothing more than the reputation and help that the Lu family could bring to him...

Li Fu shook his head.

There was no need to read this.

Money and other things were not a problem, he had it.

The dignified Prince of Jingyang, who was in charge of the huge Jingyang Palace, and the current Prince's tutor, could he be stingy when marrying?

A mere one million yuan, a small amount of money!

After reading this, Li Fu finally understood why the palace arranged his marriage so well. It was really very important to be well-matched.

"Parents' orders, matchmakers' words, the law of marriage, there must be a matchmaker, the matchmaker's job, to meet men and women." Li Fu held the book and muttered: "Tsk, thank goodness I read it, otherwise I would be a complete fool if I rashly sent out invitations."

"I have to find a matchmaker first? Who should I find?" Li Fu thought.

The emperor, Empress Changsun......

It's hard to fall in love without someone knowledgeable at home.

Li Fu complained in his heart.

I still have to ask the people in the palace, they know everything.

So, Li Fu put the book aside for the time being and began to write a letter to Empress Changsun, asking her to help and act as the matchmaker.

After writing it, he quickly sent someone to deliver it to the palace.

Then, Li Fu continued to read the customs.

"I always cram at the last minute, cram at the last minute."

"Forget it, as long as it is useful."

In the palace, Empress Changsun smiled after receiving Li Fu's letter.

"This Huairen is not reckless in this regard. He knows to find a matchmaker first." Empress Changsun smiled to herself, then wrote a note and asked someone to send it to the Duke of Ying's mansion.

She came to arrange a time, and then told Li Fu to bring his entourage to the Duke of Ying's mansion at the appointed time to pick up Li Shao. The two of them brought their entourage to meet, either to walk around Chang'an City or to go out of the city to enjoy the natural scenery.

This was the first formal meeting between the two.

After meeting once and getting familiar with each other, if they meet again in the future, they can just exchange visiting notes, and there will be no need for such trouble.

Before that, they still have to follow etiquette.

The people in the palace hurriedly took Empress Changsun's note and went to the Duke of Ying's mansion.

At the Duke of Ying's mansion, the couple were still sitting together to discuss.

"I really think that the King of Jingyang and our Shao'er are very suitable. The more I think about it, the more suitable they are." Lady Yingguogong said with a smile.

"I think you are the mother-in-law looking at the son-in-law." Li Ji smiled helplessly: "Have you met the King of Jingyang?"

"When I saw him from a distance in the palace martial arts field, he was also a gentleman with a handsome appearance. He was a good match for our Shao'er. It's just a pity that I didn't see him playing polo on the field."

"The King of Jingyang will not participate in these things." Li Ji said: "Even if he wants to, I guess the palace will order him to strictly prohibit participating in such activities."

"Ah? Why? Young people are in their prime."

"So the King of Han is the only one who has not yet married and has no children. The palace holds him very precious." Li Ji Said: "During the Wude period, the retired emperor made him join the army in order to make him a king and give him a fiefdom, and to make him follow the current emperor. He gave him a civilian position in the army to prevent him from taking risks. To put it bluntly, it was just a trip to get military merit and a reputation."

"Oh, now that you mention it, I remember that he is really different from ordinary children of noble families, but together with our Shao'er, he can be regarded as complementary. It doesn't matter how good he is in civil and military affairs, right? As for literature, he can read and write, and has participated in some government affairs. He is also the prince's tutor, and can teach the prince. How bad can he be?"

Li Ji nodded.

"Yes, Your Majesty is very concerned about the prince's education. Being able to be the prince's tutor shows that Your Majesty recognizes his literary talent. Others may not have contact with Prince Jingyang and have no way to understand him, but the palace must know him very well."

Lady Yingguo nodded repeatedly.

"That's right, let's talk about the martial arts. Although the son of aristocratic family has learned the six arts of a gentleman since childhood and is good at riding and shooting, Prince Jingyang is almost there. It doesn't matter. Our Shao'er is proficient. What is this called? The two complement each other. This is called fate given by God."

If this marriage hasVery good, then the wife of the Duke of Yingguo is very satisfied.

As long as her daughter can be happy in the future, everything is good.

Is the King of Jingyang weak?

Being weak is good.

If she really suffers any grievances in her husband's family in the future... she can come out and return to her parents' home, and her parents' home will support her for the rest of her life.

In this regard, the Duke of Yingguo's mansion is very confident.

"You really like this marriage." Li Ji also teased his wife.

"Of course." Lady Yingguo said, "We should not only look at the present, but also the future. Especially, our daughter will be the head of the family after entering the Jingyang Palace. She only needs to take good care of her husband and manage the whole family. There is no mother-in-law above and no concubines below. The inner house of Jingyang Palace is very clean. This is one of the reasons why I am satisfied with Jingyang Prince as my son-in-law."

"How much waste of time do women have in the inner house? How can you men understand? Women in the inner house have the most difficult life. The status in front of the husband, the face of the natal family, the etiquette between the inner and outer women, the closeness of this and the distance of that, the indifference of not being too close, and the balance of getting along with people, there are many ways."

"Is it so difficult for you to stay in the mansion on weekdays?" It was the first time that Li Ji heard his wife talk about this.

If the marriage between his daughter and Jingyang Prince had not made her feel a lot, I am afraid that he would not have heard these words.

"The affairs of the inner house are just that much. Once you get used to it, you will adapt to it. You won't find it difficult or tiring. There is always a way to solve any problem." Lady Yingguo said, "It's just a matter of thinking."

"Since last year, Shao'er's birthday, I have been letting her learn to take care of the affairs of the inner house at home. First practice with my own family. When she becomes the eldest lady of someone else's family in the future, she will get the hang of it quickly. Even if there are any omissions in her work, it's just in her own family. With me as her mother to cover for her, she can handle anything."
