Carrying AK into Ming Dynasty

Chapter 463
August [-]th, Mid-Autumn Festival.

The Mid-Autumn Festival was originally a day for family reunion, but as early as a few days ago, Chongzhen sent out "invitations" in his personal name to the nobles who retired with the Ming Dynasty.

This made the honorable relatives, Monk Zhang Er, scratching their buttocks. How can there be a banquet on the Mid-Autumn Festival? The Central Plains Festival is a day when the family reunite. What is your majesty going to do?
Besides, His Majesty has always been frugal. This is the first time in the 18 years of his reign that he has gathered the honored relatives of the whole country for a banquet. Jiannu has just been exterminated. Could it be that His Majesty is happy and asked me to sing praises?
Hmm, not like, His Majesty has always been thrifty, how could he be so kind?
On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, many nobles entered the palace with such thoughts and brocade clothes and crowns.

There are quite a lot of hereditary nobles in Daming and the country, but most of them are distributed in various parts of Daming. Even though the fast horses were sent to pass on a few days ago, most of the fast horses are still on the road.

But even though Chongzhen set the date on August [-]th, it doesn't matter if you can't make it, as long as you can get it.

In the spacious Huangji Hall, square nanmu tables have already been set up, and rows of palace maids from the Yellow Gate come in and out, carrying jade plates of delicacies.

"Grandpa, I haven't seen you for a long time. Is your old body still in good health?" Taining Marquis Chen Yanzuo walked up to Xu Yunjue, Duke of Wei, and said hello.

Before Chongzhen arrived, the nobles of the Ming Dynasty who filled the hall began to talk. After all, everyone made a fortune in other places on weekdays, and they didn't see each other several times a year.

"Brother Chen, it's true, I haven't seen you for more than a year, I heard that you recently made a lot of money in the tea business, brother, what's the matter, why don't you invite me to drink two cups when you go back?"

Wei Guogong Xu Yunjue's ancestral home is Nanjing, and he happened to come to the capital this time to see his daughters and sons-in-law, and to choose a new store location by the way.

The sons of the old Xu's family were not up to snuff, they only knew how to drink and make jokes all day long, and Xu Yunjue had to manage their own property.

"Compared to the father-in-law, how can this little family property in my brother's hand be put on the table? Stay at night, go to my brother's house at night, we will never stop getting drunk!"

Taining Hou Zushang is a subordinate of the Xu family, and they also have business contacts.

"Grandpa, you are well-informed and belong to the same family as His Majesty, so do you know where His Majesty is playing?"

As soon as Marquis Taining said this, the people at the two tables beside him fell silent. When it comes to seniority and title, Wei Guogong Xu Yunjue will do his part.

The Xu family has a family of two princes since Xu Da, the king of Zhongshan, and they are all hereditary. They even had a queen.

"Hey, everyone, don't read the old man's jokes. We have lived in Nanjing for a long time, and we don't see His Majesty a few times a year. We are already born, but this is the case. The brothers have to ask the old man." Xu Yunjue looked at Zhou Kui who was lying on the table and was about to fall asleep.

"That's right. In terms of closeness, Jiading Bo is the leader among the relatives, Jiading Bo?" Seeing Zhou Kui dozing off, the Marquis of Taining refused to let him go.

In fact, Zhou Kui didn't fall asleep all the time, it's just that this guy didn't get along well with many nobles, he... always felt that these guys had bad intentions for him, and their words were always in a strange and inappropriate way.

Take this Marquis of Taining as an example, the two of them originally opened a cloth shop in the capital, and Marquis Taining followed the path of making small profits but quick turnover, but Zhou Guozhang always felt that this guy was deliberately targeting him and trying to squeeze him out. he.

Zhou Kui's family was poor when he was young, and his family was still poor when he was young. He supported his family with a trowel, and he lived a good life until his daughter flew up to a branch and became a phoenix.

Yes, he just felt that these guys looked down on him, but he had to come when his son-in-law summoned him.

So he would rather stay alone, thinking about the end of the banquet, and hurry home to count the money. The accounts of the various shops have just been settled in the middle of the year, and they have made a full profit of more than 20 taels. Very happy.

"We don't know, our daughter is turning her elbows outwards now, and you all don't know, our son-in-law has put our grandson in prison, how dare we touch that bad luck."

Zhou Guozhang's voice was not low, not only the nobles around him, but also the eunuchs waiting around the main hall heard it clearly.

The corners of the eunuchs who knew the inside story twitched, thinking that Zhou Guozhang was too presumptuous, and thought that even if you were the Guozhang, you would be able to dictate what the Lord Long Live had to deal with?

But no one went up to persuade him to be cautious, who would be happy with thankless things?
Ever since Zhou Kui was smashed by Liu Hongjian last time, and this guy went to the palace to file a complaint but was reprimanded by his daughter, he has been holding back his anger. Liu Hongjian was no match for him, but he annexed several houses in the capital grocery store.

Zhou Kui is a smart man, he can't fight hard, these little traders who have no power and power can still be bullied, Ma Wu's family was forced to hang himself, this matter made a fuss in Shuntian Mansion, but was eventually suppressed by the superiors .

After all, he is His Majesty's father-in-law, so who can do anything to him, even if Uncle Jiading is shameless, the royal family is shameless!
"It's useless to ask our family about it. You have to ask the Liu family boy. You can tell them." Zhou Kui didn't bother to talk to these bird people. Pointing to the sincere uncle Liu Kongzhao who was surrounded by a circle.

If we talk about Uncle Sincerity, few people probably remember it, but once we talk about Liu Ji Liu Bowen, the military adviser beside Zhu Chongba who knows things like a god, he will understand that this Liu Kongzhao is Liu Bowen's sixth grandson.

Liu Bowen, a military strategist, statesman, and writer at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, was the founding father of the Ming Dynasty.

For example, Liu Kongzhao, the last descendant of this generation, is in his thirties, and he still wanders around like a son-in-law all day long.

He travels between the noble families in Beijing and Nanjing, and he is busier than Xu Yunjue's family, which is in full swing.

What are you busy with?Matchmaker!
Yes, you read that right, this guy likes to talk about matchmaking.

The eldest son of Chang Yanling's family, Marquis of Huaining, the youngest daughter of Li Cunshan's family, Marquis of Wuqing's family, and the youngest son of Tan Hongye's family, Bo of Xinning, were paired together as the eldest daughter of the second brother's family of Shanbo Wang Daoyun, the Marquis of Zhenyuan, Bo of Dongning, and Marquis of Taikang. Home……

Even the Duke of Guizhou, far away in Yunnan, has been there several times, and in the end he rationed Mu Tianbo's eldest daughter to the nephew of the British Duke Zhang Shize.

If Liu Bowen knew that his descendants had become a matchmaker like Liu Kongzhao, the coffin would probably be overwhelmed.

Liu Kongzhao boasted that he would go down to earth at the age of the moon, and told his relatives that the matchmakers would go there in person, traveling all the way to the mountains and rivers, and he had reached the point of madness.

But also because of this, Liu Kongzhao knew a lot about the nobles in the court, and most of the nobles also liked to chat with them very much, after all, no one had married a wife yet.

Liu Kongzhao was surrounded by a group of marquis and earls. Some asked him to be a matchmaker, and some asked this and that. Hearing Wei Guogong and Guozhang Zhou Kui calling him, it took a lot of talking to get rid of the group Lao Xungui.

"Your Majesty is here!" Before Liu Kongzhao reached Zhou Kuina's table, there was a dead male shout.

As soon as the sound fell, the nobles in the hall immediately fell silent, and Chongzhen walked to the throne in a leisurely manner wearing a dragon robe and a black gauze wing crown.
