Du Mu Mian proudly replied: "Well, she is the king's sister-in-law, and now she is a female soldier of the king's bodyguards!"
Now the people from the wealthy country who were watching were a little confused.
The king's sister-in-law? Or a female guard... What's the relationship? Why does it sound so confusing? Is she really just a sister-in-law?
Du Mumian looked at the group of suspicious-looking men from the New World with a smile, smiled and pointed at the female soldiers standing guard behind him, and said: "The female soldiers in the Guards Group and the Da'ao Group are all married to Jinlan, and they are all sisters with different surnames. Her Royal Highness the Princess is the leader of Emen, and she is also married to Emen.
So we are both the king's sisters-in-law. If we marry you, we will be the brother-in-law of His Highness the King! "
"Marry..." When the shameless man heard this "word", he even drooled.
He doesn't care much about being the king's brother-in-law... There has been no king in the United States of New Zealand for more than ten years since its establishment. First, the America House was in charge, and then the U.S. Government came to take charge of affairs.
Moreover, both the American House and the later Uyghur Government did a good job, and the national destiny of the United States of New Zealand was also prospering because of their governance.
It’s been good not having a king for more than ten years, so everyone has become accustomed to “having no superiors”. If there is a king in everyone's mind, it is not the tycoon king of the United States, but Zhu Cihuan, the "King of Stocks" from the Jiaqing Kingdom next door.
Because there are many unlucky people here in the United States of New Zealand who "came from stock trading". They all know the inspiring story of Zhu Cihuan losing Emperor Chongzhen's pension money and having no choice but to run away to Xinzhou to start a business and conquer the world.
The "stock refugees" who are also refugees from Tianya also follow Zhu Cihuan's example. Some people gave Zhu Cihuan the nickname "King of Stocks" because of this dark history, and they were very fond of him.
Although the stock king Zhu Cihuan has a dark history of unfilial piety, he has been in New Island Continent for many years, and often travels to Washington City, and is quite familiar with the upper class of the United States of New Island. Many people think that he is actually a good king...perhaps better than the faceless King of United States who lives far away in the Ming Dynasty.
Precisely because the prestige of the King of United States is not high, the so-called "brother-in-law" of the King of United States is not very valuable in everyone's eyes.
But for such a beautiful lady, everyone is still very envious. If I could get married and go home, I would really be happy to live a few years shorter!
"Girl," the shameless gold digger continued to ask with a shy face, "then how can I marry you? How much do I need as a bride price?"
Du Mu Mian glanced at him. He was dark and thick, with messy beard and hair. If it weren't for a large gold chain weighing several kilograms hanging around his neck and two flintlock pistols stuck in his waist, he would look just like Shi Zhu. A virtue of a mountain farmer. He's just a farmer who struck gold, and he wants to marry him? It's really a toad that wants to eat swan meat...
"Um, no betrothal gift," Du Mu Mian wanted to slap the man, but he still followed Zhu Hehao's instructions and said loudly, "Whoever wants to marry the sister-in-law of a king like you must first register and then take the exam. Only when you get married can you get married!"
There are also exams to get a wife... In the Ming Dynasty, there are exams to be a princess, an exam to be an official, and exams to enter a good school. And in the United States of New Zealand, girls who want to marry the "Female Guard Corps" and the "Grand Olympian Corps" also have to take an exam!
It seems that this exam is the most important event in this world changed by Zhu Cixiang!
...
"Your Majesty, this is the budget for the 22nd year of Hongxing that has just been passed by the Uijima Government. It has prepared an annual amount of five hundred thousand taels of gold and silver for you, Your Majesty. You can spend it however you want."
"Your Majesty, this is the imperial edict issued by the Ming Emperor in the 20th year of Hongxing's reign, approving the implementation of the political and electoral methods of the United States... Please take a look at it!"
In Prince Bai's palace, Wei Zhongcheng, the leader of the government, and Zheng Xi, the chief minister of the cabinet, were in the conference hall, reporting to Zhu Hehao on the budget and the election methods of the United States government.
And these two things together are actually to tell the king Zhu Hehao that the U.S. government is the real boss in the United States!
Zhu Hehao didn't seem to care whether he had the power or not, and he didn't accept the text sent by Wei Zhongcheng and Zheng Xi. He just smiled and said: "The lonely king already knows... 500,000 taels a year, which is good. ! In addition to this money, does the lonely king have a Wangzhuangwang store?"
"Yes!" Zheng Xi said with a smile, "The king owns shares in Pacific Bank, and also owns 3 million acres of land that can be cultivated and grazed in four states in the United States, China, Poland, and Canada."
"Not bad, not bad..." Zhu Hehao smiled and nodded, looking very satisfied, "It seems that the lonely king can be a happy prince in the United States of Xinzhou... Okay, you two are busy going. Well, this king trusts you!"
Wei Zhongcheng and Zheng Xi breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts - it seems that this "rich king" and his father have different temperaments, and he is not the kind of king who must hold power in his hands.
Just look at how many women he has brought here and you will know that this king is probably a king who loves beauty rather than country...
However, even if the local tycoon loves the country to death, it is of no use. The power of the parliamentary government of the United States is the rule set by Emperor Hongxing, and this rule is the foundation on which the United States is established!
The United States of Xinzhou was not originally a world owned by one family, but a country invested by countless shareholders with their money.
Moreover, Zhu Cixiang, the "major shareholder", has never directly governed the United States. The United States has always practiced autonomy in the absence of the king.
Zhu Hehao, who has now come to the United States, only has 30% of the voting rights in the government of the United States... According to the "Deliberation and Election Law" formulated in the 20th year of Hongxing's reign, these 30% of nomination rights do not include This does not mean that you can directly nominate 30 political representatives, but in the political election, each political seat has 30 votes (a total of 100 votes, and you will be elected if you get 51 votes).
In other words, although Zhu Hehao's voting rights are crucial, he cannot appoint any one person to discuss politics alone.
If Zheng Xi and Wei Zhongcheng can unite 51% of the voting power, then Zhu Hehao can be sidelined!
In addition, since the "Deliberation and Election Law" was approved by an imperial edict in the 20th year of Hongxing's reign, a deliberation election was held in the same year. It has only been less than two years now, and the five-year term of the deliberation has not yet passed half... And these deliberations , almost all of them are old people who developed the American Mansion with Zheng Xi and Wei Zhongcheng!
Watching Zheng Xi and Wei Zhongcheng leave, the local tyrant king just sighed softly.
"Your Majesty," a woman's voice sounded from behind Zhu Hehao, "Zheng Xi and Wei Zhongcheng don't seem to be loyal ministers!"
"Haha, it's not bad." Zhu Hehao said with a smile, "Ah Hai, what do you think the lonely king should do?"
It turns out that this woman is Zhu Hehao's concubine A Hai.
Now Wu Ahuan is still studying in Yingtian Mansion, so the two concubines who followed Zhu Hehao to the United States of Xinzhou were Ahai and Xu Jingzi.
Hearing Zhu Hehao's question, Ah Hai had no intention of "not getting involved in politics" at all. Instead, he thought thoughtfully and said, "Your Majesty, you should use thunderous means to take down these two treacherous ministers who have no regard for their superiors!"
Ah Hai gritted his silver teeth and said: "You have 2,000 Guards in your hands. As long as you use them properly, these two traitors will be nothing to worry about."
"Hahaha," Zhu Hehao laughed, "Ah Hai, why did you think of annexation as soon as you came up? Do you think that with 2,000 guards, the lonely king can defeat the entire United States?"
"Your Majesty," Ah Hai was surprised, "Is there no loyal ministers in the United States?"
"How come there are no loyal ministers?" Zhu Hehao smiled, "Aren't those two the same ones?"
"Which two?"
"Zheng Xi and Wei Zhongcheng!"
"How can they be loyal ministers?" A Hai was stunned, "The two of them clearly want to blackmail the emperor and order the princes!"
Zhu Hehao waved his hand and said: "The country of United States is not the country of kings... The foundation is different, and the rules are of course different!"
"Your Majesty..."
Zhu Hehao raised his hand and interrupted Ah Hai, "Ah Hai, if Ah Huan is not here, you have to take on the responsibility. The most important thing now is to find the right husbands for the girls. You have to worry more."
