"When choosing a marriage, you don't have to bother the poor and small families. Just choose good girls from the families of famous officials such as the Health Officers and Supervisors, and the families of the small officials such as the Jiaoyu and Qianhu."
"In addition, when the palace needs to be repaired for a big wedding, remember to install lightning rods in each palace. For my Qianqing Palace and the future queen's Kunning Palace, remember that there is no need to repaint cinnabar, just a little repair and cleaning."
Zhu Yijun gave Zhang Hong instructions shortly after the marriage edict was issued.
"According to the order!"
Zhang Hong agreed.
Then, Zhu Yijun asked: "How is the relocation of Wang Gong Factory going?"
"Back to the Emperor, most of the Zhending Mansion has been moved."
Zhang Hong replied.
Zhu Yijun nodded after hearing this and said nothing more.
He asked the inner court to relocate Wang Gong Factory, naturally to avoid another big explosion like the one in history in the future.
As for the selection of concubines, only those from well-off and wealthy families who have a good reputation or a small official status are naturally selected to avoid the future concubines in the harem being too crude, which will be detrimental to the future harmony of the harem.
After all, daughters from wealthy families are likely to be taught some rules.
Although Zhu Yijun is only sixteen this year, in this era it is indeed the wedding year that cannot be postponed any longer.
What's more, whether he, the emperor, can get married is of great political significance in this era.
Zhu Yijun did not deliberately postpone the wedding.
And he was just trying to fix the shortcomings of the original concubine selection system in the process of selecting concubines.
By about July, the process of selecting a concubine was almost in progress.
And it's time for the Queen Mother of the two palaces, Zhu Yijun, to choose three girls who can be concubines.
Empress Dowager Chen said: "This time we don't just choose three, we try to choose twenty with better looks among them, and then Jun'er will appoint them, lest Jun'er is not satisfied and feels that you, the biological mother, are making things difficult for her."
"But what if Jun'er indulges in beauty because of this?"
Queen Mother Li asked.
Empress Dowager Chen said: "Jun'er is young and mature, so he will not be fooled by beauty."
"What's more, if the appearance of the middle palace and the noble concubine are not as good as the palace promised, it will easily lead to the emperor favoring the maid and causing discord between the emperor and the empress."
"I hope Jun'er won't be as bored with his queen as the late emperor was!"
After hearing what Empress Dowager Chen said, Queen Mother Li agreed.
Therefore, the queen mothers of the two palaces selected twenty beautiful girls who could be queens for Zhu Yijun, and waited for Zhu Yijun to personally select the queen, concubine and ninth concubine from these twenty girls.
When Zhu Yijun came to the twenty girls, he was confused at first and didn't know who to choose.
But not long after that, one of these girls, a girl who made people forget about ordinary things, caught Zhu Yijun's attention.
Zhu Yijun walked towards him and took the jade Ruyi held by the eunuch in his hand.
But at this time, Queen Mother Li who was sitting in the palace couldn't help but suddenly stood up and wanted to stop it.
Queen Mother Chen held her back: "No intervention is the best intervention! If you let Jun'er choose a queen she doesn't like, then the entire harem and even the people in the world will have to bear the price of the emperor's dissatisfaction!"
"But that man is so stunning!"
Queen Mother Li said.
"Jun'er has already figured it out! Why do you need to worry!"
"I asked. These girls are all from virtuous families who are well-educated and know etiquette. Maybe they know how to persuade the emperor better than you and I did back then!"
Queen Mother Chen said with a smile.
Empress Dowager Li gave up and looked at the most beautiful girl with annoyance, and accepted Yu Ruyi.
As a result, Zhu Yijun finally determined his queen - Du Weirou.
Not the sister Wang Xi in history who often beat the palace maids to death with a stick to vent her anger because she was not liked by the emperor.
History quietly changed at this moment.
This is something that is bound to change.
Because Zhu Yijun had long asked the inner court to pay attention to the education status of these candidates when selecting people.
Unlike in history, because Feng Bao controlled the inner court and only followed the orders of Empress Dowager Li, he could not have any say in the selection of his queen.
Of course, choosing does not mean that you will have a big wedding and have sex immediately.
The emperor's wedding ceremony is very complicated. From the selection to the formal marriage and canonization, it takes a long time to go through.
Just the wedding period needs to be chosen by Qin Tianjian, and cannot be determined artificially.
But no matter what, Zhu Yijun began to look forward to his future married life.
He is very satisfied with his queen and is willing to form a good relationship with her.
Of course, Zhu Yijun also knew that his ability to choose a queen he was satisfied with probably had something to do with Queen Chen, because he had already hinted that Queen Chen would prevent his biological mother from interfering too much in this matter.
From the fact that he could directly choose the queen from twenty girls, he knew that Queen Mother Chen had successfully prevented his biological mother, Queen Mother Li, from over-interfering in this matter.
And this makes Zhu Yijun even more willing to believe that the next Wanli era is really related to him.
He, the emperor, wants to be the happiest emperor in history, and his people want to be the happiest people in history.
Because the two complement each other and are indispensable.
"When Jiaxing County and Xiushui County of Jiaxing Prefecture were purging their father-in-law, the wealthy gentry bribed the officials to hide their land of 33,500 acres, and did not lose any grain, but let the neighboring county Jiashan County share the compensation!"
"In addition, some wealthy gentry deliberately recommended local gangsters to serve as bookkeepers, and arbitrarily moved and concealed the number of qingzhao. Before the new fish scale atlas was compiled, the old ones were destroyed, so that the inspection officials had no proof of the results of the qingzhao!"
"In short, there are still various problems in the process of clearing the father-in-law. The local gentry tried every means to obstruct it, and some officials took the initiative to protect the wealthy people."
Therefore, Zhu Yijun was still paying serious attention to the matter of clearing the land and after learning from Zhang Juzheng that he still encountered various obstacles in the process of clearing the land, he said:
"Since the wealthy gentry in Jiaxing are dishonest, then Jiaxing scholars will not be allowed to start careers in the next three years, and all those who have been registered this year will have their honors revoked! Since the wealthy people in Jiaxing do not have a court in their hearts, then go back and read the books of sages for a few more years. , this is also the case in other counties!”
"Those officials in each county who actively carry out everything will be promoted by the Ministry of Personnel, and the officials can also be appointed as official officials. Those who die in the execution of their father-in-law's duties will have their own and parents' official titles, and their wives will be appointed."
"As for those who do not actively cooperate, or even those who violate the rules, they will naturally be severely punished. Those who deserve to be exiled will be exiled, and those who deserve to be exiled will be sent to the army!"
Zhu Yijun was obviously determined to promote the clearing of the father-in-law's land, so he was merciless and directly punished the wealthy gentry who did not cooperate with the clearing of the father-in-law in the imperial examination.
Zhang Juzheng repeatedly said that he obeyed the decree.
Bao Wenjiong, an official from Jiaxing, was shocked when he learned that his hometown had been banned from taking exams for nine years because he resisted clearing his father-in-law. He was worried that this would greatly damage the interests of the township party, so he hurriedly went to Shu and begged:
"The villagers are ignorant and have betrayed the emperor's favor, so they did the deception. However, Your Majesty, please forgive the villagers for their ignorance and do not abandon the villagers' desire to serve the country, woo woo!"
Zhu Yijun ignored it and did not even send it to the cabinet for voting, but intended to teach the local gentry a lesson.
And then, the number of cases of underreporting the number of qingzhang or even deliberately destroying the original fish scale map was greatly reduced. No one dared to make fun of the political future of his clan or township.
The matter of clearing one's father-in-law's land can still be successfully implemented throughout the country.
But on September 25th of this year, that is, September 25th of the fifth year of Wanli, when Zhu Yijun was preparing for his wedding and relying on Zhang Juzheng to carry out the national clearing of his father's land and his mother's affairs, a piece of bad news came from Jiangling. spread to the capital.
Zhang Juzheng's father died suddenly of illness!
