25. The Quartet Celebrates the Big Wedding
Hong Jinglai realized one thing. Even though there were a large number of people and a corresponding level of education, the good people and the wealthy class among the middle people still did not have the strength to compete with the elite ruling class of North Korea, the Jinghua gentry. It can even be said that they could not even challenge.
They don't even have the strength. Even with Hong Jinglai's military support, it won't work.
Although they have some idea of pursuing political power as their economic strength and education level have increased, this common pursuit is weak and scattered. Neither philosophers nor thinkers who can lead the trend have been born.
No leader with the spirit of Ge Ming was born.
It would take a hundred years later during the Japanese occupation period for this group of people to truly develop national consciousness and gradually move towards unity. The colonial rule imposed on the country and nation, and the cooperation of the Japanese invaders and the upper-class Beijing gentry, made
There is another layer of oppressors among these good people.
Cruel cultural control and economic plunder have greatly harmed the interests of this class. Various Western ideological trends have surged in due to the founding of the country, and finally cultivated leaders like Kim Goo, the founding father of the Korean nation.
Instructor Ge Ming.
At this time, the majority of the people gradually woke up and stood together with Kim Gu, and fought for the independence and liberation of the Korean nation one after another. Countless people with lofty ideals of this nation came forward and wrote a glorious chapter in history.
As for now, everything is in disarray!
Integration is a long process, and a class that is currently more powerful cannot be offended for the sake of a disunited class. This was also Hong Jinglai's decision after discussing with the generals and ministers one after another.
Subsequently, word spread in the Hanyang Jinghua gentry circle that the top pick of this year's Enke Special Examination has been decided by Zhao Yinyong, the successor of the Zhao family in Fengyang.
The various families of the Jinghua gentry who had been persuaded to quit by Min Jing suddenly suddenly realized that you, Hong Jing, are an old boy. If you want to use the imperial examination quota to win over your old friends, just say so. Everyone knows this rule. Arrange it after you come to power.
It is the rule of our Jinghua noble clan that no one can say "no" to our own people.
Since Hong Jinglai wanted to arrange his own people, all the noble families in Beijing told their children to keep their eyes open in the future. Look at Zhao Wanyong, who turned his younger brother into an heir and brought his own money to invest in Hong Jinglai. Now not only are they rich, but also
He also brought the whole family along with him.
Look at you guys, why didn't Hong Jinglai want to make friends with him when he won the third prize? Why didn't Hong Jinglai have the vision to follow him when he raised an army? Otherwise, the current number one pick might be in our family!
I have to give Min Jingyou some face, so don’t take this subject. You won’t be able to get it anyway. Let Hong Jing place his own people.
However, the vast majority of the neutral Jinghua nobles who survived the purge were unable to be persuaded to retreat. However, those Jinghua nobles who followed Hong Jinglai to fight vigorously, or who had surrendered to Hong Jinglai early on, became more active.
Zhao Yinyong and the Fengyang Zhao family were the five generations of tomb chiefs, with disciples and former officials all over the world. Zhao Wanyong came from thousands of miles away to defect, and he was the first third-rank official to express his surrender anyway. It is natural for their family to have a number one scholar, and no one refuses to accept it. But the division
Two Jinshi are not too much for us. We fucked you with our heads tied to our belts, so this little reward is nothing.
One after another, Jin Zaichang brought Kong Nanzhu from his wife's natal family, and Han Que also brought Park Daofei from his hometown.
, Jin Pingchun originally thought he was a loyal and honest man, so he took some toilet water and brought a young man named Jin Guzhen over.
Hong Jinglai could only meet them one by one. They were all the heroes of the Jingshe, and it was impossible for everyone to miss them. But for the children they brought, Hong Jinglai also made it clear to them that whether they could win or not, they still had to pass the exam.
Although the Zhao family was allowed to have a top scholar, Zhao Yinyong was really well-educated. He took the exam based on his own ability. He couldn't get the top pick, but he was sure to get the Jinshi. Not to mention, Zhao Yinyong himself was the top pick in history.
In short, Hong Jinglai compromised and finally opened a hole!
Naturally, there is an excuse for everyone to come to Hong Jinglai's house. Today is the day of Hong Jinglai's wedding. The guest Zhao Wanyong temporarily stayed at Hong Jinglai's house the night before. The dignified Hanyang Prefecture Magistrate Yin and the official Cao Shenpan served as guests.
, this is probably the first time in the history of the Ming Dynasty. As for Hong Jinglai, the leader, he got married, not to mention, other people in power usually get married when they are in their early 20s, but Hong Jinglai was the only one who came so late.
No matter how you put it, it was a great event that caused a sensation in Hanyang. Every family also took this opportunity to show their goodwill to Hong Jinglai and sent them precious gifts one after another.
Originally, I wasn’t planning to collect anything, at most it was wedding cakes, wine, rice cakes, fruits, etc. But Xiao Zhao said that if you don’t collect anything, people will be upset. Who told you that you just made a book?
Chi Enke reiterated that good citizens are allowed to participate. The nobles in Beijing are afraid that you will make big changes.
Collect it now. At worst, you will be more upright and donate it all to the Huimin Administration, and use it to treat people's diseases and administer medicine, or use it as funeral money. Not only can you continue to promote your good name, but it can also stabilize the people of Hanyang.
people's hearts and receive their gratitude.
Rather than trying to please both sides, it’s better to get the best of both sides!
Okay! Xiao Zhao, you are right. Hong Jing came to spread his hands and walked forward under the guidance of Xiao Zhao. Hong Shourong specially found two eight-year-old boys from the Hong family, holding a pair of wild geese, and followed them to Min Jing's house.
Flag-raising teams arrived one after another. Everyone said that the daughter of the Min family was very lucky. As soon as she married her husband, she would be awarded the title of first-class lady, with great honor. In such a happy time, of course no one would mention last year's Hong Jing.
In Hanyang, Xiao Baicai suddenly learned of the incident. Her fiancé was designated as a treasonous thief, and the whole country was seeking to arrest him.
All the initial worries were relieved overnight, and what we got was a wedding that everyone in Hanyang would envy. Even Li? He gave half of his own money to Hong Jinglai. Of course, it had to be paid back and could only be used for this wedding. Zhong Jinglai
Toyofuin-kun's wedding can't be shabby, but it can't be a grand affair.
There were many people willing to pay for this, and every household sent servants to expand Hong Jinglai's wedding party. When Hong Jing arrived at the door of Min's house, the queue was almost a mile away.
Chapter completed!
