Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, Lao Zhu wanted to prevent the royal relatives from intervening in the local area and plundering the people's wealth. He also wanted to prevent the princes, nobles and ministers from using their status as royal in-laws to do evil and endanger the political power.

But in fact, when implemented, it gradually begins to change.

Even though the prince-in-law says it sounds good.

But once Wang Siqi really became the consort of the Ming Dynasty, except that his future salary and salary would be received according to the standards of a first-class minister of the Ming Dynasty, basically other things that had anything to do with people had nothing to do with him.

The princess's marriage is by no means a small matter. From another perspective, it is a major matter related to the royal family's reputation. After the princess gets married, she will return to the harem, and Wang Siqi will become a widow who only guards the princess's mansion.

On weekdays, if you want to meet, then... it has to be decided by the female officer next to the princess.

More importantly, this is still the era when Zhu Laosi is in power. In this era, a concubine is not allowed to take concubines, although this rule has always been there.

But not until the late Ming Dynasty.

It's almost collapsed, but Wang Siqi can't catch up!

Not long after, Wang Siqi woke up leisurely, and immediately shouted angrily at Wang You: "Consort? You exchanged my money for a marriage with the princess?"

Wang You was stunned, isn’t this good?

He is a prince-in-law, once his son Wang Siqi's affairs come to fruition.

In the future, it is said that the status will be higher than mine. Although most of these consorts are not welcome in the court, and their lives are not very comfortable, this is still what a father can think of for his son.

The best road has been paved.

You must know the identity of the Consort in today's Ming Dynasty.

That's something you can only get from a home of meritorious and powerful people.

He had already set his own future, and he had to know that once his son became the prince-in-law, he would have to retire immediately in accordance with the requirements of the Ming Dynasty law: "The prince-in-law is a guest and is not allowed to enter the official position, and his son is not allowed to hold the imperial rank."

"Isn't this good?"

"What a fart!"

"Parents' orders..."

"Stop talking about this... First, let's talk about whether the ticket can be refunded. Whoever wants to be the consort can be the consort. I can't say anything about being a consort. Besides... this is really not a good thing!"

Wang You was silent. He didn't expect that his son didn't even want to be the prince-in-law.

He immediately expressed his stance and said: "It's okay! Even if I try to find a way for you, the emperor would not agree to it. In this case... you must act unruly and unruly when you follow dad into the palace today... It seems that you don't have to be too deliberate."

"Son! It's fine just as you are now. When the emperor looks down on you, then this matter will be over!"

Wang Siqi immediately complained.

But it’s hard to refuse anymore, after all, this is the only solution right now.

In the palace.

Zhu Di patted Long An angrily and said loudly: "Okay! This Uncle Qingyuan really opened my eyes. Even the death-free iron coupon I gave him can be pawned by his son.

Is life worse than cold silver?"

"His friend, Wang, is so short of money?"

"Can't you even keep what I gave him?"

Queen Xu coughed and said weakly: "I'm afraid this matter does not have much to do with Uncle Qingyuan. I heard that it was all done by his careless son."

"When Uncle Qingyuan comes, I can ask him in person."

The pale Queen Xu looked even weaker after saying these words.

Zhu Di's voice also softened.

It didn't take long.

The news that Prince Qingyuan grabbed his son and asked to see Zhu Di outside the palace gate with red eyes came in. Zhu Di immediately waved his hands and shouted angrily: "No! Uncle Qingyuan is so capable. Since life and death don't matter to me, I

What the hell, why come to see me!"

In recent years, the imperial court has been engaged in many foreign wars.

Although most of the main force is still the old people who followed him in Jingnan, but since the place has changed from the remote Peiping to the misty Jiangnan now, many military generals have almost lost their muscles and bones after coming to the capital.

Zhu Di was also extremely anxious, especially juniors like Wang Siqi.

So, Zhu Di thought... Uncle Qingyuan, isn't this a typical example of someone who is delivered to his door?

Outside the palace gate, Wang You blushed and argued hard: "Why didn't the emperor see me? You little eunuch, did you pass on the news of my coming to the emperor? Uncle Qingyuan asked to see you!"

"I brought my troubled son here to apologize!"

The little eunuch also looked embarrassed, and immediately said: "Oh! Who doesn't know that you are the uncle Qingyuan of the imperial court, but the uncle...the emperor is very angry now."

"We advise you to wait a little longer before talking."

After hearing this, Wang You seemed to have been drained of all his strength. He sat on the carriage beside him and did not want to get off again. He waited quietly for Zhu Di to allow him to enter.

Only Wang Siqi stepped out of the carriage with interest.

From the money exchanged today, I took out one of the banknotes with a small face value and handed it to the little eunuch outside the palace gate who was passing the message in an obscure way.

The little eunuch was a little surprised.

It seems that they dare not accept it, and they seem to be surprised by the huge amount. After all, even if the officials who come to the palace usually give silver, it is less than half a tael of broken silver, which is an extremely large face value.

But now, the young master of the Wang family is quite wealthy.

Wang Siqi smiled and lowered his voice and said, "Father-in-law, is there anything else you haven't finished saying?"

Seeing that there was no one around, he lowered his head and looked at the exposed corner of the banknote. The young eunuch finally plucked up the courage and said softly: "Young Master, your Majesty intends to do this. It doesn't matter if you wait any longer."

After saying that, he left quickly without saying a word.

Wang Siqi suddenly realized that Zhu Laosi wanted to use the opportunity to give the father and son a showdown, but Wang Siqi didn't care too much about it.

Just because he clearly knows this ironclad certificate.

It was originally a thing that the final right of interpretation always belonged to the emperor. The comfort effect was far greater than the actual use value. This was not only known to many meritorious nobles who received the iron coupons, but also to Zhu Di. After all,

After Lao Zhu's dynasty, this thing has long lost its symbolic meaning.

But if we look at it more seriously, selling the iron bonds can be called a breach of divine grace.

If we look back, there is history to follow.

When the Ming Dynasty was founded, during the Hongwu period, in order to reward the initial entrepreneurial groups for their merits and reduce the consumption of national power as much as possible, this thing similar to a blank check was gloriously born.

For a time, there were simply countless iron coupons issued by the imperial court.

The death-free iron coupons of prominent families in the capital are almost gathering dust, so there might as well be some fierce people among them who dare to take Lao Zhufa's death-free iron coupons and go out to the streets to exchange them for drinks.
