"Father, I don't know why you suddenly summoned your son and minister today, are you going to go on a personal conquest again?"
Zhu Youjian stretched out his hand to touch Wei Xi's head and said with a smile:
"No, no, this time the emperor doesn't plan to personally conquest, let you come over to discuss matters."
Princess Kunxing Zhu Weixi smiled sweetly, and said obediently:
"Father has something to do as long as he orders, and the servants will obey the father's wishes in everything."
Jianwen and Ziwei also obediently agreed:
"Father, just open your mouth if you have anything to say, and the emperor will be obedient."
Seeing that the three princesses said so, Zhu Youjian smiled even brighter.
"You are not too young in the third grade, and the emperor decided to choose a son-in-law for you."
The three princesses who had just said that they would be obedient suddenly began to act like a baby, and declined their father's request one after another.
They never thought that their father would summon them for this matter.
"Father doesn't want it, the emperor is still young, can we talk about it in a few years? I beg Father..."
Zhu Youjian stretched out his hand and patted the pretty faces of the three girls:
"Wei Jianwen Ziwei, I heard from my father that my daughter will get married sooner or later when she grows up.
In order to restore population growth, Ming Dynasty has long required girls to marry as much as possible at the age of 14.
How can the father keep his three daughters by his side? You have already exceeded the standard for marriage.
We can settle the marriage first, and we can delay the marriage by two years, how do you think this is going to be?
In the afternoon, my father asked them to come to the Qianqing Palace, you guys take a look quietly, if you like it, my father will give you a marriage. "
When the three princesses heard this, they fully understood that the royal father already had someone in his heart, and now he just informed them.
In that era, marriage was decided by parents, and of course the princess could not go against the emperor's wishes.
Princess Kunxing, Princess Jianwen, and Princess Ziwei can only nod in agreement:
"Everything is up to the father."
Seeing that the three daughters all nodded in agreement, Zhu Youjian was overjoyed:
"Hahaha... good! Father will arrange for them to enter the palace in the afternoon, and you will have dinner with father at noon."
"My son obeys the order."
The morning time passed quickly, and the three princesses were very anxious. They didn't know who the consort their father had chosen for them was.
But there is one thing they all know very well, the emperor dotes on them extremely, and the son-in-law is absolutely the same.
After the father and daughter had lunch together, Zhu Youjian began to arrange for the three princesses to meet with the consorts.
It was said to be a meeting, but the princess was secretly looking at the consort inside, so people outside would never know.
The three princesses observed the consorts one after another in order of age.
The first one is of course Princess Kunxing Zhu Weixi, followed by Jianwen and Ziwei.
At that time, someone will take her to a room behind the imperial study room. There are windows on the walls of the room, which are usually covered by curtains.
Because of the light problem, the situation of the imperial study room can be clearly seen inside.
But the people in the imperial study room, without knowing the inside story, can't discover the secret behind the window at all.
Everything is ready, Zhu Youjian sent a decree:
"It is said that Zheng Chenggong, the commander of the Navy, Li Dingguo, the commander of the Dragon Banner Special Forces, and Xia Wanchun, the customs officer, came to the Imperial Study Room to meet you."
The three of them hurried to the imperial study after receiving Erxi's oral order.
Ah Qing waited outside the imperial study room, saw Zheng Chenggong and the others coming, cupped his hands and said:
"Three generals, His Majesty ordered you to enter the face sanctuary one by one."
The three hurriedly clasped their hands together:
"I'm sorry, Miss Aqing."
Ah Qing smiled faintly:
"The three generals are angry, and General Zheng invites you first."
"Thank you, Miss Aqing."
Zheng Chenggong thanked Ah Qing and stepped into the imperial study.
Looking up and seeing the emperor sitting on the dragon chair, looking at him with a smile, Zheng Chenggong hastily stepped forward to salute:
"Minister, Zheng Chenggong sees His Majesty."
Zhu Youjian smiled slightly, pointed to the chair next to him and said,
"Aiqing is free of courtesy, flat body! Give me a seat!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Zheng Chenggong carefully sat down on the chair, not daring to sit still, only half of his buttocks were on the chair.
Even though Zheng Chenggong is the captain of the navy, he is almost under one man and over ten thousand people.
But he respects and adores the current Holy Master very much.
It can also be said that only those who have been in contact with Zhu Youjian will respect and worship him more.
The kind of emperor who takes things with his bare hands and can do miraculous things at any time is not something he, a mortal, can understand.
Zhu Youjian looked at his naval captain and smiled slightly:
"Don't be nervous, I just asked you to come here today to chat about family affairs, is Ai Qing married?"
Zhu Youjian's two words almost caused Zheng Chenggong to fall from his chair.
Fortunately, they were all generals, and he reacted quickly enough to stabilize his body in a hurry.
He was about to go to Japan soon, and Zheng Chenggong thought that the emperor had summoned them to attack Japan.
