Ming Dynasty: I, Emperor Chongzhen, swear not to go to Meishan

Lu Yiming currently serves as the company commander of the second company of the first battalion of the second royal regiment. He leads the soldiers to conduct various military trainings every day. At the same time, he teaches the soldiers some valuable experience that cannot be learned in training and can only be gained in actual combat. As for Whether they can listen to it and learn from it or not depends on their personal destiny.

Although he was very busy, he still found time to go under the wall of Wang's house and date Wang Yunqiu through the air to relieve the pain of lovesickness, and their relationship grew day by day.

Before the soap went on the market, it had already given priority to supplying the new army, which shows how much Zhu Youjian attaches great importance to the new army, and at the same time, it is also to win people's hearts.

All officers of the new army were assigned a certain amount of soap according to their rank. The platoon commander was assigned two pieces of soap, and the company commander was assigned five pieces of soap.

In order to please his girlfriend, Lu Yiming shamelessly bought five bars of soap with five comrades, collected enough for a box, and gave it to Wang Yunqiu.

After receiving the gift from her boyfriend, Wang Yunqiu, who has always been dignified and reserved, couldn't help but widen her eyes with a shocked expression on her face.

During this period, all she heard were all kinds of legends about soap. It was just expensive, but the key was that it had a price but no market. Even if you had money, you couldn't buy it. According to legend, someone offered ten taels of gold for a piece, but no one had it. goods.

Wang Yunqiu thinks that asking for ten taels of gold to buy a piece of soap is a bit exaggerated, but it is enough to prove the preciousness of soap.

She also wanted to get a piece of soap, but he also knew the situation at home, not to mention that even if the family had money, they might not be able to buy it, so they could only listen to various rumors about soap and sigh.

Unexpectedly, Lu Yiming actually gave her a box of soap. She was so excited that she wanted to jump downstairs, throw herself into his arms, and take a sip.

However, she was just thinking in her heart. She didn't have the courage at all and couldn't go out. Moreover, Lu Yiming didn't give her this time. After delivering the soap, he waved goodbye and left in a hurry.

Wang Yunqiu took the soap and kept sniffing it. She was very excited. On impulse, she took a whole box of soap to honor her parents.

Of course, she also had her own thoughts, which was to make Lu Yiming leave a good impression on her parents, so that it would be easier to talk about marriage in the future.

Wang Yunqiu was still a young girl who had not been deeply involved in the matter, and her mother Zheng Yuqing found out the details of Lu Yiming's identity in a few words.

Wang Jingtai and Zheng Yuqing both looked very ugly. The Wang and Zheng families came from scholarly families, and Wang Jingtai was a fourth-rank doctor and a serious official. Their daughter would either marry a son of a noble family or a son of an official. , no matter how bad it is, marrying into a scholarly family is called a well-matched match.

The Ming Dynasty valued civil service over military affairs. When military generals of the same level saw civil servants, they were demoted one level. Lu Yiming was just a young general leading a hundred-man team. This official position was so small that it could be ignored. How could their daughter marry a brave warrior? ?

Besides, Lu Yiming was still a poor man who had just been freed from slavery, and his parents were still slaves of the royal family, which made this even more impossible.

This marriage is absolutely impossible, because Lu Yiming is not worthy of their daughter at all.

However, the couple stared directly at the entire box of soap placed in front of them, their eyes full of reluctance.

That's a whole box of soap. If you use it to honor your superior, you might be promoted to the next level next year.

Wang Jingtai has always had this idea, but his family background is so poor that he doesn't have the capital at all. Now, the opportunity is in front of him, tempting him and making him tangled in every possible way.

To withdraw is like cutting out a piece of flesh in the heart. I don’t know how painful it is. If you don’t withdraw, wouldn’t that mean you agree to the marriage in disguise?

Oh, it’s really hard to choose.

After struggling for a day and night, Wang Jingtai finally made a decision. For the sake of his daughter's lifelong happiness, he decided to return the box of soap.

The couple discussed it all night, and in order to cut off their daughter's thoughts, they hurriedly agreed to get married. The man was Xu Xun, the magistrate of Tongzhou County.

Although Xu Xun is only a seventh-grade county magistrate, the Xu family is a century-old family with strong power. As long as the Xu family does not decline, Xu Xun's future will be bright, and it is not impossible to become a minister in the future.

In the view of Wang Jingtai and his wife, not only did they find a good family for their daughter, but there were many benefits for the Wang family to gain access to the Xu family. Just by leveraging the Xu family's influence, it was much easier for Wang Jingtai to get along in the officialdom.

Xu Xun not only heard about Wang Yunqiu's reputation as a virtuous woman, but also met Wang Yunqiu. He nodded and agreed to the marriage. The elders of both parties met and hurriedly picked a good day to get married.

When Lu Yiming received the soap returned by Wang Jingtai, he realized that Wang Yunqiu was married, and he collapsed limply on the snow like an empty rice bag.
