Chapter 5: Riding a dragon to become a son-in-law

 Zhu Youmei secretly praised his son for his decisiveness in taking things up and letting them go. He took Chen Xiangming's hand and said with a smile:

"Master Chen, the unfilial son did fall in love with your love at first sight, but he was young and ignorant and behaved wildly. I will repay your love for the injustice you have suffered until Master Chen is satisfied.

In addition, I heard that Mr. Chen is worried about the victims fleeing from famine in Shaanxi recently. This unfilial son thought of an idea and asked Mr. Chen to correct him.

Mr. Chen, how about we go into the mansion and discuss it in detail?"

Chen Xiangming had known Ji Wang Zhu Youmei for several years and knew that he was prudent and prudent. Hearing King Ji talk about the victims, this was the most important thing in his heart. With his curiosity aroused, he invited Ji King Zhu Youmei and his son Zhu Cixuan to visit him.

Enter the prefect's Yamen.

After the guests and hosts sat down in the living room, Ji Wang Zhu Youmei asked:

"Master Chen, when I came here, I was shocked to hear that the eldest lady Ling Ai had committed suicide this morning. Fortunately, my maid found it in time and saved her. I wonder if this is possible?"

When Chen Xiangming heard this, his anger rose in his heart, and he glared at Zhu Cixuan fiercely. He said to King Ji Zhu Youli:

"Your Majesty, this is indeed true. My daughter is only 15 years old. She has been knowledgeable about books and rituals since she was a child, and she is gentle and quiet.

Recently, I have been suffering from cold. Yesterday, my daughter was going to Lushan Temple to pray for her mother's health. Unexpectedly, as soon as she went out, she encountered a gangster... Prince Ji, who was frivolous and rude. In the morning, Zhuonei was even more frightened because of her illness.

I can't afford to be sick.

Fortunately, I saved my little girl in time today. Otherwise, I only have these two girls, whom I love like treasures, and I would have to risk my life to fight with your majesty!"

Chen Xiangming thought to himself, if your Prince Ji’s Mansion cannot come up with a solution that satisfies me today, then let’s judge it in front of His Majesty!

Zhu Youli thought to himself that it was lucky that he came in time, but Chen Xiangming couldn't refuse the solution his son thought of.

Zhu Youli was confident and said with a smile: "Mr. Chen, don't get impatient and get angry.

In order to express the apology of the king and his son to your beloved, I would like to ask Mr. Chen to take a look at this gift."

He winked at the consul and eunuch Geng Yong who was standing next to him.

Geng Yong quickly bowed and nodded, waving his right hand lightly behind him, and the eight eunuchs each carried a gift box and walked into the hall. Then they opened the lid of the gift box and presented it in front of Chen Xiangming.

Geng Yong walked up to Chen Xiangming, bowed and presented a gift list:

"Master Chen, this is a small gift prepared by the prince, please accept it."

Chen Xiangming took the gift list and looked at it in a blink of an eye. He saw that it said "Two thousand taels of silver, century-old ginseng, Polygonum multiflorum" and a series of precious medicinal materials, jewelry and other items.

Seeing that the gift was quite heavy, Chen Xiangming felt a little better. He saluted King Ji Zhu Youni and said:

"The prince is so generous with his courtesy, and I feel ashamed that I don't deserve it. If it were for other matters, and the prince was so sincere, I would naturally not dare to pursue it further.

It’s just that people’s words are terrible now, and everyone in Changsha’s mansion speaks loudly...”

Chen Xiangming stood up and pointed his halberd at Zhu Cixuan angrily:

"They say that my little girl's virginity has been stained by him in the carriage!"

Chen Xiangming tried his best to restrain his anger, his chest rose and fell rapidly, he gasped for air, and he almost rushed forward and beat Zhu Cixuan.

Ji Wang Zhu Youmei and Zhu Cixuan looked at each other and smiled knowingly.

Zhu Youmei looked at Chen Xiangming standing in front of the Taishi chair and smiled mysteriously, and said:

"Lord Chen, I have a plan to turn this matter into a great event, as long as Lord Chen nods and agrees.

This unfilial son fell in love with your love at first sight yesterday, and became crazy and rude. Today, the king has brought him to propose marriage to Mr. Chen!

Please allow Mr. Chen to betroth your wife to this unfilial son as your royal concubine!"

Seeing Chen Xiangming, he was stunned on the spot. He realized that he was turning too fast, and a storm arose in his mind. King Ji Zhu Youmei winked at his son Zhu Cixuan.

Zhu Cizhen stood up and saluted Chen Xiangming and said:

"Master Chen, when Wan Sheng saw your love yesterday, he immediately knew that your love was Wan Sheng's long-awaited candidate for the Crown Princess! I will love your love as much as my life in this life.

To express Wansheng's deepest love for your daughter, I heard that Mr. Chen is recently worried about the resettlement of the victims of the disaster in Shaanxi Province. Wansheng is not talented, so he has informed his father, Wang Yunke, that I, Prince Ji, will provide money and food to shoulder the responsibility of Changsha Palace.

The resettlement of more than 10,000 Shaanxi disaster victims!"

Zhu Cixuan winked at the deacon and eunuch Deng Zhong who was standing behind him.

Deng Zhong hurriedly stepped forward and reported to Chen Xiangming in a sharp voice:

"Master Chen, on the orders of the prince and the prince, the servants have sent people to transport the first batch of 200 shi of grain and wait outside the magistrate's office. In addition, 300 craftsmen have been selected to build wooden houses in the prince's fiefdoms of Changsha Prefecture, Changsha County and Shanhua County.

, to prepare disaster victims to live in the winter.

This is the first batch of supplies list, please take a look at it, Mr. Chen."

Chen Xiangming was extremely shocked at this moment. He had never heard of or seen the vassal king taking the initiative to donate money and food for disaster relief.

Chen Xiangming reached out and tremblingly took the list from Deng Zhong and read it excitedly.

Deng Zhong saluted and retreated to Zhu Cixuan. Zhu Cixuan smiled and whispered a few words to Deng Zhong. After Deng Zhong saluted King Ji and the Crown Prince, he exited the hall, left the prefect's Yamen and went to the prince's fiefdom to attend to matters.

Ji Wang Zhu Youli and Zhu Cixuan sat quietly on chairs and looked at Chen Xiangming with a smile.

Chen Xiangming had already read the list of supplies. He was accompanied by 70 servants of the palace, 22 carriages, 200 stone grains, ten large iron pots, 100 kilograms of coarse salt, 1,000 wooden bowls, and 500 kilograms of dry firewood for the fire.

It has also been loaded and shipped over one after another.

The more Chen Xiangming watched, the more excited he became. He saw that the food for the victims was more important than life. He suddenly raised his head and looked at Ji Wang Zhu Youli and Zhu Cixuan and said:

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please sit down. I'll excuse you for a moment. I'll come back as soon as you go."

Ji Wang Zhu Youmei and Zhu Cixuan knew that he would not be relieved until he personally inspected the grain, so they both smiled and nodded.

Chen Xiangming bowed and, accompanied by two magistrate servants, walked anxiously out of the Yamen.

Zhu Cixuan remembered that he had seen the red tape on the Internet about the marriage of vassal kings in the Ming Dynasty, and couldn't help asking King Ji Zhu Youli:

"Father, how long will it take for my son to marry Miss Chen as his concubine, from the time of reporting to the court to the consummation of the marriage?"

Zhu Youmei was both happy and funny.

Fortunately, a disaster caused by his son, no matter how big or small, turned into a happy event that was both honorable and honorable due to his resourcefulness. With Chen Zhifu as the in-law of Prince Ji's house, even the air seemed to be free.

It tastes sweet.

What's funny is that his son is very anxious towards Miss Chen and eager to get married. It seems that he is really in love with Miss Chen.

Prince Ji, Zhu Youmei, smiled and said, "Don't be impatient, Xuan'er. As long as Magistrate Chen nods, I will immediately report to the clan's mansion. As soon as two months or as late as half a year, His Majesty's confirmation and title will arrive."

When Zhu Cixuan heard that it would take so long, he felt uncomfortable. Thinking that this was the end of the Ming Dynasty, he had no choice but to agree.

Sitting in the Changsha magistrate's office now, I couldn't help but recall Miss Chen's peerless appearance and the short time we spent together yesterday. I thought: "Just marrying Chen Meijing as my wife will make my time-travel adventure worthwhile.

Where in the past life did I have such a beautiful, virtuous and gentle woman as my wife?"

Zhu Cixuan was wandering around in his thoughts when he heard the sound of footsteps walking quickly from the front yard.

Chen Xiangming, the prefect of Changsha, strode into the hall and bowed respectfully to King Ji Zhu Youmei and Crown Prince Zhu Cixuan respectively with an excited expression.

"The prince and the crown prince have the common people in the world as their top priority and the Ming Dynasty as their top priority. This has saved countless lives and made immeasurable merit!
