Father can be an enemy to the country

Chapter 69 Boss Zhu proposes marriage

In fact, since Zhu Biao married Chang Yuchun's daughter and Jin Wang married the daughter of Yongping Hou Xie Cheng, Xu Da knew that his daughter could not escape the fate of marrying the royal family.

Moreover, Zhu Yuanzhang did mention it to him several times before, but Xu Da always shied away on the grounds that his daughter was still young and we would talk about it in a few years.

His wife died early, and he himself was fighting in the north all year round. The eldest daughter took over the entire Duke's palace when she was just ten years old, but she managed it in an orderly manner.

Xu Da really felt sorry for the apple of his eye. He was afraid that it would melt when he held it in his hands. How could he marry the fourth son of the Zhu family, a living bandit?

But Xu Da also knows that everything can be done one by one, and if he refuses again, he is afraid that Boss Zhu will regard him as being pampered and arrogant...

Especially the chicken that had just been killed by Marquis Deqing.

Yes, although Liao Yongzhong is hard-working and capable, he is nothing compared to Xu Da.

However, this is my daughter’s lifelong happiness...

Xu Da fell into a painful struggle, feeling that he was not as tired as Wang Baobao's battle of wits and courage.

With Wang Baobao, it was a battle of wits and courage; with the emperor, it was simply being ravaged by one side...

~~

Zhu Yuanzhang seemed not to see Xu Da's reaction and still thought to himself:

I heard from the queen that the eldest daughter of your family is now a gentle, virtuous, talented and virtuous person. She is a well-known 'female student' in the capital.

Queen Ma nodded slightly, smiled at Xu Da and said, I really like her too.

Your Majesty, I fell in love with you by mistake, I fell in love with you by mistake. Xu Da wiped his sweat and held his stomach, trying to escape.

How could Zhu Yuanzhang, who had grown up playing around, let him succeed? He reached out and held the back of Xu Da's hand, and said affectionately:

Tian De, you and I are common friends. It's not an exaggeration to say that we grew up together naked. To this day, we are still of the same mind, and there has never been any dissatisfaction. Since ancient times, monarchs and ministers have catered to each other. This is nothing more than this, right?

Yes, no one can compare to him. Xu Da had no choice but to sit down again and nodded as if he was resigned to his fate.

I heard gentlemen say that monarchs and ministers in this situation usually marry their children and in-laws. Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Xu Da with a smile and said:

The fourth child in our family is not bad either. He needs to be tall and handsome...he needs to be tall and knowledgeable...but he needs to be tall. Hey, in short, we just like your daughter and want her to be our daughter-in-law, 伱Do you think it’s okay?”

Alas... Xu Da lowered his head, knowing that there was nothing he could do.

If the emperor only cares about friendship, he can still practice Tai Chi and get away with it.

But this time Boss Zhu has risen to the level of maintaining the relationship between monarch and minister. If he doesn't agree, he will be disobedient...

He had a clear mind and a strong view of the overall situation. He knew that nothing could be done, so he had no choice but to kneel down while holding on to the table and choked with sobs: I thank you for your kindness.

After saying that, tears fell down.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who had managed to get through, turned a blind eye and laughed loudly: If Tian De is happy, then the matter will be settled.

It's settled, it's just that my daughter is only fourteen, and the noble concubine has just... Xu Da was confused again.

We didn't say we wanted to get married now, but I'm just telling you first. There must be a lot of people watching for such a good girl. If we don't take it first and let others snatch it away later, where can we buy the regret medicine? Zhu Yuanzhang said with his own hands Help him up.

I understand. Xu Da nodded.

Seeing that the marriage was confirmed, Zhu Yuanzhang took Xu Da's hand and began to give the number one general a psychological massage.

We know that your daughter is gentle, virtuous, well-educated, and as pretty as a beautiful girl. Our fourth child is indeed a bit naughty...

Isn't that a bit embarrassing? Now that King Yan has become the prospective son-in-law, Xu Da is not polite. As an uncle, I watched him grow up. Although I have not been in Nanjing in the past few years, I have heard about the good things he did.

His eldest son worked as an errand in the imperial palace, and his second son studied in the main hall. Even his eldest daughter was often called into the palace by the queen to talk. That is not an ordinary understanding of the gossip in the palace.

That's an ignorant devil. If my daughter marries him, it would be like inserting a flower...

General Xu did not dare to say any more.

Tell me, what is there that you dare not say? Let me tell you for you. Aren't you just a flower stuck in cow dung? Zhu Yuanzhang achieved his goal and was in a good mood. Xu Da vented to him at this time. Not only did he not feel disgusted , but I feel that this is how a family should be.

We all let cows go by. It's not like you don't know that this cow dung is a good thing. The entire crop depends on it...

Okay, the more you talk, the more outrageous it becomes. Empress Ma rolled her eyes at Zhu Yuanzhang, poured a glass of wine for Xu Da herself and said:

Tiande, my sister-in-law knows that you are not happy with this marriage. If you had not upheld the principles of a monarch and a minister, you would never have agreed.

Well, we are extremely satisfied with the superior and my sister-in-law, but I am worried that my daughter Wenwen is weak and will not agree with His Highness...

Xu Da hurriedly took the wine glass with both hands, raised his head and drank it while wiping his eyes with his sleeves.

Zhu Yuanzhang blushed when he heard this, because his family had already learned from the past.

In the third year of Hongwu, Xu Da led his army to completely annihilate the troops of Wang Baobao, the king of Qi in the Northern Yuan Dynasty, in Anding. Wang Baobao escaped with only a few of his wives and found a stream of wood to cross the Yellow River.

But the prime minister of the Northern Yuan Dynasty and his sister Minmin Timur were captured by the Ming army and sent to Nanjing.

Zhu Yuanzhang always wanted to recruit Wang Baobao to surrender and completely solve the border troubles in the Northern Yuan Dynasty, so he married Minmin Timur to his second eldest son and became the Princess of Qin.

This marriage was too arbitrary. Zhu Ping grew up in a military camp and was exposed to scenes of killing Tatars or being killed by Tatars. He had an extreme hatred for the Mongols.

What's more, the slogan of the founding of the Ming Dynasty was Expelling the Tartars and restoring China. Well, he ended up marrying a Tartar back.

How can this make a stubborn young man like Lao Er feel embarrassed? So since getting married, I have never touched Princess Qin, or even looked at her...

The fourth child and the second child seemed to be the same thing, and Xu Da couldn't help but worry. If Zhu Di also had a problem with his daughter, would his daughter make the same mistake as Princess Qin?

~~

Tiande, don't worry, the fourth child is different from the second child. Zhu Yuanzhang could only comfort Xu Da and said: Besides, your girl is also different from others. If you marry her, we promise to treat her as your own daughter. Otherwise...

As he spoke, he scratched his head and said, Let's give her a feather duster when the time comes and allow her to hit the fourth child as she pleases, okay?

When Queen Ma heard this, she gave her husband a thoughtful look.

My daughter is not a shrew. Xu Da was cautious all his life, but he had no way of knowing what happened behind closed doors between the emperor and the empress.

Fortunately, Queen Ma was broad-minded and did not take his careless words seriously. She also smiled and said: Tiande, my sister-in-law also promises you that she will teach you the fourth child well. When you come back from Peking Look, if he is still impetuous, then forget about this marriage.

Don't count, we have many sons, not only the fourth child but also... Oh yes, there is also a fifth child, the age is right...the sixth child is a bit too young.

Xu Da felt a black line on his forehead. Is that a minor problem? Your sixth child is only ten years old, right? Do you want my daughter to be a child bride for your family?

In short, Zhu Yuanzhang looked like he was setting up a stall to sell his son, and he was determined to win: Anyway, we are going to decide on this daughter-in-law!

The emperor and his wife have talked about this, what else can Xu Da do? I had no choice but to kowtow and thank him again, expressing my gratitude and never going back on my word.
