Lu Ze's further advancement has become the consensus of almost everyone in the court.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see how much the new king values and relies on this Shanda man. From Yuzhou to Bianjing, Shanda people accompany him all the way. After arriving in Bianjing, the Yuzhou group often invites Shanda people to their door. He seemed to regard Lu Ze as their talker in Bianjing.
The new dynasty has its own new atmosphere.
There is no doubt that Lu Ze will be the first group of people to board this new ship with a golden ticket.
As Lu Ze was officially promoted to a second-grade official, countless people wanted to visit the Sheng family, and there was an endless stream of people.
But most people were excused by Lu Ze by saying that it was not convenient to gather and drink during the national mourning period.
At present, the Sheng family has an agreement with the Duke of Qi. However, during the national mourning period, the three books and six rites have been temporarily shelved. Fortunately, Qi Heng is currently preparing for the spring exam and thinking about adding more gifts to the family before marrying Minglan. Be a little happy.
Princess Pingning was very happy.
The new emperor did not have a high opinion of the princes and nobles in Bianjing City. After all, they had just experienced the war between the two kings, and the families involved were still being gradually liquidated. This official was not an easy person to talk to.
A new official needs three skills when taking office, let alone a new emperor.
The princess never imagined that one day she would secretly rejoice that her family would be married to the Sheng family.
If someone had told her two and a half years ago that the only son of the Duke of Qi would marry a concubine from a minor official family who had just come to Beijing to report on her duties, she would have been laughed out of her mind, but now this situation is indeed happening before her eyes.
I can only sigh silently, times make heroes.
At present, in the Sheng family, the marriage of the sixth girl Minglan is the first to be settled. The fourth sister Mo Lan and the fifth sister Ru Lan who are in front need to speed up the process. At this time, the eldest lady's entanglement begins to set in, and she doesn't know what to do. Which one is suitable for my daughter?
And while she was hesitating, her brother Wang was overtaken by her sister Kang.
When Lu Ze heard this, he smiled all over his face, which made his wife very angry.
"I...I have a second-class commission!"
"Damn it, my own sister robbed me of this wonderful marriage!"
The Wang family will return to Beijing at the end of the year to report on their work. The eldest lady originally wanted to marry Ru Lan to her family, at least to know the details. However, there are so many marriages coming to Bianjing City at the moment that she did not expect to be married to the Kang family. My sister took away the marriage.
Soon the day came for Mo Lan and Hairpin.
Hairpin refers to the person who is promised to marry in the new year. When a woman is promised to marry, she wears her hair straight.
The eldest lady was worried about Rulan's marriage, and Minglan already had a relationship, so Lu Ze naturally worried more about Muran, and finally chose Xu Xinyu, the second son of Mrs. Xu's family, who was regarded as the most important person in Bianjing City A very talented young man.
Mo Lan was undoubtedly interested in someone who knew a little bit about romance. In addition, the Xu family had a good reputation in Bianjing City and the old master's status was respected. Mo Lan's marriage was quickly finalized.
In Lin Qi Pavilion, Lin Sushuang was holding Mo Lan's hand tightly, with tears in her eyes.
Although Lin Sushuang's education method has big problems, her love for Chang Feng and Mo Lan is not fake at all. It's just that a series of things about Mo Lan's marriage were not understood by Lin Sushuang. She was the one who came later. I found out about my daughter Xu’s family. ….

One thing, after all, it’s up to you.
With tears on her face, Lin Sushuang opened the treasure box under her bed and began to count the dowry for her daughter.
"The eldest lady has prepared eighty acres of fertile land to use as a shop in Yong'an. The old lady has also prepared a complete set of gold robes for Mo'er, plus your dowry here. Don't worry, Mo'er can be generous. Get married."
After a long time, Lu Ze left Lin Qige with Mo Lan, who was crying.
"Father found a copy of "Fishing on the Cold River" by Xu Qingji. It is the original work of Mrs. Xu's father. It will be counted as your dowry."
"Mo'er."
"The days to come...you have to live by yourself."
Hearing Lu Ze's soft words, Mo Lan burst into tears.
.......
Here at Shouan Hall, the old lady is also preparing a dowry for Minglan.
This national mourning has caused many families who are interested in getting married to secretly slow down their pace and just look at each other in a low-key manner. Once the mourning period for the late emperor is over, it is foreseeable that there will definitely be a crowd of families getting married in Bianjing City.
Modern people's focus on marriage is on the bride price.
A woman's dowry is actually equally important, especially for officials and wealthy families in ancient times.
In the Hou Men's family, where the bells and whistles are ringing, those valued legitimate daughters are learning to talk, and the elders in the family have to save dowries piece by piece. When the girls are old enough, they can start talking about marriage directly.
This dowry is a magic weapon for a woman to establish herself in her husband's family. A rich dowry can naturally make the married girl straighten her waist and behave as a person.
After all, the food and drinks are all provided by me.
Now the brother-in-law of the Kang family has been unable to hold his head high in front of his daughter-in-law just because he used the Kang Wang family's dowry. The ancients believed that men who care about women's dowries are hot chicks.
"This village is located on the Qingliang River not far from the outskirts of Beijing. It has a small area of 300 acres. I also bought a mountain forest next to it. Many fruits and vegetables are grown in it."
"When I first came to Beijing, I originally wanted to go there to enjoy the cool weather in the summer, but now my grandma doesn't want to go anywhere except to go to the mountain to worship Buddha, so I might as well give it all to you as a dowry."
"There are also three house deeds and two land deeds here, all in the prosperous area of Yangzhou City."
"I have people taking care of it."
"besides..."
Minglan hurriedly said: "Grandma, that's enough!"
Minglan couldn't bear to listen. It cost ten thousand taels of money just to buy the Zhuangzi Mountain Forest on the outskirts of Beijing, not to mention there were so many real estate properties. Only then did she realize that her grandmother was so rich: "These things are just for marrying a princess." Is that enough, Miss? I can’t use so many things, and besides, you also need money at home.”
Unexpectedly, the old lady scolded her directly: "What do you know? Have you ever been married?"
Minglan pouted and shook her head.
"Do you think it's enough for Qi Heng to love you and love you?"
"There are so many things that women in the back house have to do, not to mention that it's the Duke's mansion. From my sisters-in-law to my maids and servants, you have a place to use your money."
Minglan couldn't help but sigh.
well.
Getting married is so troublesome! .
