Seeing this, Mrs.
Hou did not dare to ask for details, as long as it was beneficial to her family.
Then he said to the Marquis: "The marriage with the second girl of Wu Shangshu's family in the Ministry of Rites has been settled.
Today, the Queen Mother personally proposed it to Mrs.
Wu Shangshu.
From the tone of Mrs.
Wu, she should be willing."
Madam Hou wanted to marry Wu Qingmei for the third young master, so she specially asked the queen to come out for an interview.
The Marquis of Yong'an thought this was an expected thing and didn't care.
He just said, "It's all up to my wife to handle everything."
He still wanted to deal with the affairs of the court.
Let's talk about the palace.
During the early dynasty in the Qianyuan Hall, Emperor Shunchang discussed with his ministers that the blended fabric developed by Guo Zhinu should be used in the army to transform military uniforms.
To this end, military weaving bureaus should be established in the northwest and north to specialize in the production and operation of blended fabrics and the production of military uniforms.
Emperor Shunchang asked ministers to recommend suitable people to manage the Weaving Bureau.
This is not just about being an official, but also about understanding textile management.
The reformists took the opportunity to propose: selecting people from Jin Shang family.
The so-called "renovators" refer to ministers who encourage the emperor to reform the government.
The new policies advocated by the "revolutionaries" include: First, it was proposed to establish a government-run Weaving Bureau in the south of the Yangtze River to specialize in weaving brocades for palace and official use, take back the management rights of brocade merchants and royal merchants, and suppress private brocade merchants.
Second, restrict maritime trade and border trade.
The reason is: focus on agriculture and suppress business, and prevent merchants from competing with the people for profit and amassing wealth.
These innovative measures involve a wide range of interests, and there are those who are opposed to them and those who are in favor of them.
No matter what the outcome was, someone in the imperial court had raised the issue, and the Fang family and other brocade weaving families would not remain indifferent, so they ordered their children to take part in the imperial examination and make preparations.
At present, the reformists propose to select people from brocade weaving families to manage the Northwest Military Weaving Bureau.
It seems that they are re-employing brocade merchants, but in fact they want to quietly take back the brocade merchants' management rights.
Just imagine, if Fang Chu worked as an errand in the Northwest Military Weaving Bureau, would the Fang family still be able to operate brocade weaving as before?
In order to avoid suspicion, they had no choice but to give up.
The reformists' proposal met with strong opposition from another group of people.
The quarrel in Qianyuan Hall turned into a pot of porridge.
Cui Mei, the newly appointed Minister of Civil Affairs, secretly looked at the emperor's expression and made speculations in his mind.
Suddenly, Emperor Shunchang said: "Let's discuss the matter of Jiangnan brocade being brought back to the government for management later.
Let's discuss the matter at hand first.
The ministers think that if the Northwest Military Weaving Bureau wants to choose someone, who should it be?"
Some people recommended Fang Hanhai, some selected Yan Jipeng, others selected Han Xiyi, some selected Fang Chu, and others selected Guo Daquan.
Although he had no talent, the Guo family had a high reputation, and with Guo Zhinu's support, he could convince everyone.
Cui Mei recommended Fang Chu.
Seeing that everyone was arguing, Emperor Shunchang announced his withdrawal from the court.
In the afternoon, the emperor summoned Prince Lin and asked him what he thought about the matter.
Prince Lin's eyes flashed and he said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, this matter has been discussed for two years, and it's not at this moment.
Why don't Your Majesty ask the brocade merchant for his opinion?
Let's ask Guo Zhinu first."
Emperor Shunchang pondered for a while, nodded and said: "That's fine.
It depends on what they say."
Early the next morning, the emperor ordered someone to draw up an imperial edict, and personally brought the eunuch and Prince Lin and others to Youhuang Pavilion.
He wanted to surprise Fang Chu and Guo Zhinu first, and then ask other questions.

The group of people arrived at the gate of Youhuang Pavilion, and the eunuch who passed the order told Manager Zhao that the emperor was here.
That meant asking Manager Zhao to go in quickly and report that Fang Chu and his wife should come out to greet him.
Manager Zhao was stunned.
Instead of calling people in to report the news with joy, his eyes flickered in panic and he stammered: "Our uncle, Zhinu, that one?"
He was nervous and scared, and for a moment he was confused.
Seeing everyone's surprise, he reacted, knelt down with a plop, and said: "Please forgive me, Your Majesty.
I will go and inform you now, and ask Weaver Girl to come out to greet the Emperor."
After saying that, he climbed up and went back.
Emperor Shunchang was very suspicious after hearing this.
Manager Zhao only mentioned Zhinu and did not mention Fang Chu.
He didn't say anything and walked in closely behind Manager Zhao.
Manager Zhao looked back and was stunned, as if he didn't expect him to follow.
The emperor glanced at him lightly, without saying a word, and went in past him.
Manager Zhao hurriedly shouted, "The Emperor is here!"
That voice was louder than the eunuch's shout during the morning court session at Qianyuan Palace.
Emperor Shunchang didn't care.
This was a courtesy, and he had to give others some time to prepare.
Otherwise, he would be in a hurry and lose his sense of propriety, which would make the emperor uncomfortable.
While thinking about it, he entered the first inner courtyard.
After coming in, I finally understood why Manager Zhao was panicking.
I saw piles of wood and connecting rods all over the yard, as well as piles of burned cloth and paper ashes; several servants were swinging axes at the base of a large flower loom, and when the ax went down, the The air fell apart with a "crash", which made Emperor Shunchang's heart twitch.
Prince Lin hurriedly asked: "Why are they all chopped up?"
He still held on to a glimmer of hope, hoping that the people would tell him that the old ones were scrapped and could no longer be used, although he felt that this was not a big hope because the wood looked new.
Because Manager Zhao shouted "The Emperor is here", those people saw that the Emperor was really here.
They were so panicked that they dropped their axes and crawled on the ground to kowtow.
When Prince Lin asked, someone replied, "It was the Weaver Girl who asked me to chop him."
Emperor Shunchang took a deep breath and asked: "Why did you chop it?"
The man said: "The Weaver Girl said she would never weave again."
Emperor Shunchang's heart sank and he didn't ask any more questions.
If you want to ask, you should ask Guo Zhinu, not them.
Suddenly, several women came out of the landlord's room.
The first one was Qingqi.
She didn't see Emperor Shunchang and others ordering the wife beside them: "Burn those drawings too."
Emperor Shunchang's heart clicked as some drawing was burned.
Guo Zhinu hasn’t handed over the drawings of the blended fabrics and the loom drawings yet.
She only handed over fabric samples and a few sets of military uniforms.
The emperor could no longer afford to be reserved and was about to speak.
But I saw Qingya complaining to the sky: "It's too much to bully others."
Yes, he is accusing God, with a very sad and angry expression.
Emperor Shunchang suddenly couldn't open his mouth.
The younger sister advised: "Grandma, don't worry, the young master will definitely get better."
The thin waist whispered: "Grandma, the emperor is here."
Her eyes and ears were sharp, and she spotted Emperor Shunchang and others as soon as she came out, and quickly alerted Qingya.
Qingya also noticed it, looked into the courtyard, and met Emperor Shunchang's eyes.
Yesterday, after Fang Chu detoxified, she felt relieved and asked the doctor to diagnose and treat him and apply medicine to the injured arm.

Only then did she realize that the wound on Fang Chu's arm was inflicted by himself, just to stay awake and not be controlled by aphrodisiacs, so as not to be succeeded by Princess Yuyao.
She burst into tears on the spot.
Fang Chu coaxed her for a long time before coaxing her to rest.
She would guard him in front of the bed, play the piano for him, and lull him to sleep.
Amidst the faint music of the piano, Fang Chu gradually fell into a deep sleep.
It was okay at first and he slept peacefully, but he developed a fever in the evening.
This was because after he stabbed himself, he repeatedly poked the wound, causing excessive bleeding.
He also burned his body with lust and soaked him in cold water.
The cold poison took advantage of the weakness and invaded, breaking out at night.
The disease surged and crushed the mountains.
Qingya ordered the doctor to open the door to drink at the door all night long, but the chickens and dogs were restless.
He also personally gave Fangchu some strong wine, cold towels, etc. to cool him down, and the entire Youhuang Hall was busy all night long.
In the early morning, Fang Chu's fever finally subsided and he fell into a deep sleep.
