Chapter 1391 Come and be the king's brother-in-law!
Wei Zhongcheng and Zheng Xi looked at each other, and they both felt that something was wrong!
"Prime minister," Zheng Xi said to the leader Wei Zhongcheng, "let's go back to Prince Bai's Mansion and ask the king!"
"well"
Wei Zhongcheng also felt that he had to go back and ask for more information. So he sent the Wang brothers away, and then he and Zheng Xi returned the same way in the same car, and then went to Baiwangfu along Wangfu Street.
The notice "Take the exam to recruit a bride" was posted early this morning, and it immediately caused a sensation in the small city of Washington. By noon, Wangfu Street was already a bit crowded. So Wei Zhongcheng and Zheng
The carriage they were riding in could no longer approach the main entrance of Prince Bai's Mansion. They couldn't wait to take a detour to the back door, so they both got out of the car, surrounded by guards, pushed through the dense crowd, and walked towards the gate of the Prince's Mansion.
The iron gate of Prince Bai's Mansion was still closed. Through the iron fence, Wei Zhongcheng and Zheng Xi saw a high platform made of several Eight Immortals tables appearing inside the door. Under the high platform, a row of tall old guardsmen had already stood.
Soldiers. A few eye-catching female soldiers from the Sister-in-Law Regiment were standing inside the iron gate, shouting loudly.
"His Royal Highness will be here soon! Please wait a little longer."
"The king will be here soon!"
"His Royal Highness will announce it personally."
What does the king want to announce in person? Is it to announce the decree of the King of the United States?
The faces of Wei Zhongcheng and Zheng Xi both looked a little gloomy. The United States is a country under the leadership of the U.S. Government, not a country where the king personally takes over the power! How could King Zhu Hehao bypass the U.S. Government and issue decrees?
Both of them were loyal ministers of the United States, and of course they could not just watch their king go further and further down the wrong path. So they squeezed out of the crowd together and went outside the iron gate.
Du Mumian was guarding the door with a few female soldiers, announcing to the crowds of people outside that the local tycoon king was about to announce the decree in person. Seeing Wei Zhongcheng and Zheng Xi squeeze out of the crowd, they stopped shouting, and instead
He bowed his hands to the two of them through the iron gate and asked with a smile: "Prime Minister, Chief Minister, why are you back again?"
Wei Zhongcheng said: "Open the door quickly, I and the owner of Meihua Island have important matters to see the king!"
Wei Zhongcheng and Zheng Xi were both the founding princes of the United Republic of China. This founding prince was a marquis who was attached to the land. However, he was not as broad as the marquis of the Jiaqing Kingdom next door, who could own thousands of miles of land. The marquis of the United States only had 100,000 acres of land (equivalent to Jiaqing Kingdom).
(one-fourth of the Marquis Territory of Qing Kingdom), but it is very good land, usually an island is built in the Gulf of America (if it is less than 100,000 acres, make up for it elsewhere), so the Marquis of the United States is also
People call him the owner of the island. And those islands are mostly named after the flowers, plants and trees that grow on the land of China to express his homesickness. The island owned by Zheng Xi is called Meihua Island, so others also call him the owner of Meihua Island. Wei Zhongcheng is more awesome.
Damn, because he loved eating peaches, he had peach trees planted on his island, so he became the owner of Peach Blossom Island.
When the owners of Peach Blossom Island and Plum Blossom Island met the King, Du Mu Mian certainly didn't dare to stop them, so he asked someone to open the door and invite the two island owners in.
As soon as Wei Zhongcheng and Zheng Xicai entered the gate of Prince Bai's Mansion, they saw the wealthy king and a group of little girls coming happily.
"Master of Peach Blossom Island, Master of Plum Blossom Island, why are you here too?" Zhu Hehao saw the two loyal ministers and greeted them with a smile.
Seeing the smiling face of the wealthy king, Wei Zhongcheng and Zheng Xi felt a little scared. This wealthy king looked too much like his father, Emperor Hongxing, and he liked to hide his knives in his smile! We must deal with it carefully!
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Jin An!"
"I respectfully wish His Highness the King to be blessed and safe"
"An, an', the lonely king is at peace." Zhu Hehao waved his hand, "Mo salute, you are just in time. The king has something good to announce, and you two can be witnesses."
Wei Zhongcheng and Zheng Xi could not help but frown. Wei Zhongcheng said: "Your Highness, our country is a country governed by a parliamentary government!"
Zheng Xi also said: "His Royal Highness, if you have any decree to issue, you should tell the Uijigong government. Only if it is passed by the Uijijong government, will the edict be legal and effective."
What the two said was unpleasant, but the local tyrant king was not annoyed at all. The United States has this foundation, which is different from the Ming Dynasty. Hundreds of thousands of citizens all carry guns, how can it be so easy to talk? Can't we discuss it carefully? So Wei Zhongcheng and
What Zheng Xi said is true and reality!
The local tycoon king smiled: "I know that I have studied the "United States Government Act". Without the approval of the parliamentary government, I am not allowed to issue decrees related to military and political affairs.
Issue an order. But what I want to announce today has nothing to do with military and political matters. It has nothing to do with the Cabinet Office, government agencies at all levels, the navy and the army.
I just want to find husbands for my sisters-in-law, so it’s not appropriate for the Uijeongbu to discuss this matter!”
yes!
Who the aunts-in-law of local tycoons marry needs to be discussed by the United States Congress? There is no such rule, and this precedent cannot be set. Otherwise, whoever the aunts-in-law of the island owners marry will also need to be discussed by the government in the future?
Wei Zhongcheng glanced at Zheng Xi. He was the uncle of the rich king, and he could speak to the rich king about his household affairs.
"Your Majesty, do you really want to give them the exam to find a bride?"
"Yes!" Zhu Hehao smiled, "Shouldn't they find a good family to marry?"
It should!
600 people! Zhu Hehao can't handle it alone. Besides, girls who are knowledgeable and courteous are really more precious than gold in the New World! If 600 girls are married, they can form 600 families. In the future,
They can produce countless descendants. It would be unjustifiable if Zhu Hehao kept them all close to him and refused to marry.
But taking an exam to recruit a bride is really inappropriate.
Because a Chinese girl who is fifteen or sixteen years old and has some education can easily get a betrothal gift of two to three hundred taels of gold in the New World. This is a reasonable price, and there is no market for it!
If this girl is pretty, has a noble background, and has some martial arts skills, then it is not a matter of money!
Zhu Hehao is now releasing 600 of these beautiful girls at once, and they are free of charge, and they are asking everyone to take exams to recruit their relatives. Then the king Zhu Hehao should not be regarded as a benefactor!
If 600 girls are married off, they can win over at least 600 outstanding young people. If Zhu Hehao can find more "sister-in-laws" to organize the second, third, and fourth exams to recruit brides, it won't take long.
A group of people can gather around him.
And those who will take the exam are definitely not the sons of politicians in the United States. They will not be unable to marry a wife.
Therefore, after passing several marriage recruitment examinations, Zhu Hehao was able to get along with the middle-level officials of the United States, including middle and low-level officials (officers), teachers, small and medium-sized businessmen, farmers, big gold diggers (gold diggers have their own gangs), and Orions (Orions also have gangs)
) and so on to establish a direct relationship.
If there are 2,000 cheap "brother-in-laws" and one cheap "brother-in-law" affects 20 people, then there will be 40,000 people under his influence.
Although these people only account for a few percent of the total population of the United States, they are enough to give the local tycoon the power to oppress the Uijeongbu!
In addition, there are many "Sichuan military households" coming from the Ming Dynasty continuously. If they all arrived, there would probably be hundreds of thousands of people!
Once the two parties work together, the local tyrant king will immediately become the true king of the United States! At that time, it will not be the king who listens to the government, but the government will have to listen to the king.
Seeing the uncertain expressions on the faces of Wei Zhongcheng and Zheng Xi, Zhu Hehao smiled and said to them: "Don't worry, two island owners, I trust you and the government, and I don't want to change the resolution.
Chapter completed!
