Daiyu didn't know that their family affairs would soon escalate to the level of discussion at the court meeting, and it was very likely that one of the two little vixens might become a regular...

Jia Jing and Lin Ruhai then began to discuss some of the recent turmoil in the south due to the change of rice to mulberry. It was inevitable that the conversation between the two would fall into the eyes of some people...

"Tsk tsk! Ninghou will soon become Lord Lin's son-in-law. The two of them get along so well, it's really enviable to others!"

"Who says it's not the case? The father-in-law and son-in-law are both in high positions and powerful, both civil and military. What a blessing!"

"Humph! Look, the father-in-law and son-in-law are probably here too!"

"Master Wang, what do you mean?"

"What do you mean? Huh! Since ancient times, there has been a good relationship between civil and military people. It's okay if they are not together. Naturally, they will get promoted and make a fortune. If you insist on doing this, I'm afraid... Hehe!"

The official didn't say much more, but everyone basically understood what it meant, and they couldn't help but suddenly realized it!

If Jia Jing really becomes Lin Ruhai's son-in-law, I am afraid that either Lin Ruhai will become an official, or Jia Jing will stop being a marquis!

This is still a very gentle method. It is estimated that based on Jia Jing and Lin Ruhai's friendship with Emperor Yongxi, Emperor Yongxi will not kill him painfully, but the best solution is that one of the two parties must be abolished!

Be on the safe side, maybe both of them will be scrapped...

The two separated after entering the palace. After all, Jia Jing and Lin Ruhai were different in civil and military affairs, so the places they went to were naturally different, and they naturally had to separate.

Lin Ruhai was fine, but Jia Jing was in embarrassment!

Because his former father-in-law was on the same train as him, and right behind him!

When she thought of the cold wind whistling behind her and the murderous intent, Jia Jing was a little discouraged!

Fortunately, Ren Jingli didn't know whether he put the overall situation first or had nothing to say to Jia Jing. He didn't communicate with Jia Jing. He just glanced at him and stood there silently without speaking.

Jia Jing was too embarrassed to say anything, so she just stood in front of Ren Jingli, feeling uncomfortable all over!

The court meeting began soon. After Emperor Yongxi arrived, as usual, he summoned officials who were about to leave the capital and those who had just returned, and then began to discuss politics.

Jia Jing didn't listen very carefully. It seemed that something was going on in the south of the Yangtze River. The trouble was quite big. It sounded like the embankment had burst. A local official came to Shenjing to complain.

The New Party claimed that the embankment was built by itself, and the man who killed the petty official was the New Party’s Jiangnan Governor Zhong Qi who sent troops to build the embankment. It is said that more than a thousand people were drowned and large areas of farmland were flooded, but...

It's okay to replant the fields with mulberry trees...

So the local magistrate quit his job, and he couldn't defeat the governor of Jiangnan, so he disguised himself all the way and went to Shenjing to file a petition!

The old party didn't say anything. They probably still adhered to the previous strategy, letting them and the new party make trouble. When the trouble got too serious, they came out and put an end to it! Beat them up!

As for the officials who quit their jobs, and so many people died, someone had to be responsible after all, so they impeached Shangguan Yi together and asked Shangguan Yi to become an official.

Naturally, the New Party refused to do it, and the fight between the two parties was bloody!

It was also at this time that Jia Jing discovered that Shangguan Yi was not there!

You must know that as the most hardworking emperor's chief assistant, almost all the people Emperor Yongxi used were famous for their diligence and frugality!

Shangguan Yi has not asked for leave in so many years, but this time he is no longer the abbot, which is really strange!

Jia Jing couldn't hold it back, so she quietly said to Han Guangjing behind her: "Uncle Shi, isn't the chief assistant here?"

Ren Jingli glanced at Jia Jing, and then said with a half-smile: "What? My nephew has been busy with the wedding recently and has not paid much attention to the government? This is not okay. You and I are important officials of the court. We cannot marry a daughter-in-law and forget about our mother.

no………"

Jia Jing laughed and said yes, if he wanted to be weird, just say so, as long as he didn't do anything on the spot...

You are already teasing others so much, why don't you allow them to say a few weird words?

Jia Jing coughed twice and turned away angrily. Seeing him like this, Ren Jingli snorted twice, and then said to Jia Jing: "Sir Shangguan has been ill recently. I heard that the illness is not serious. I guess this is it."

Something happened..."

Jia Jing nodded slowly when he heard this, and then frowned slightly. Shangguan Yi was tired from many tasks, and it was expected that he would fall ill. However, if he got sick, he would have to send all his family back to his hometown in Hangzhou.

?

Jia Jing pondered and didn't listen to the rest of the words. Anyway, in the end, they just yelled at each other for a few times and it was probably over. Without Emperor Yongxi to ask questions, no one was qualified to punish Shangguan Yi!

Jia Jing was thinking about it, but she didn't expect Zhen Yingjia to seize the opportunity at this time. Seeing that there was no more original memorial, she actually stepped forward and bowed and said: "Your Majesty Zhen Yingjia! I have the original memorial!"

Everyone is interested. Everyone knows the details of the Zhen family. This is a related household. What big things can be said? Don't just come here to read the greeting card because you don't understand the rules?

Emperor Yongxi glanced at Zhen Yingjia: "There is a memorial."

Zhen Yingjia responded and took a few steps forward: "I am reporting that the head of the Ningguo Mansion has no heirs, and the direct descendants are empty. The descendants of the family that made great achievements in the past have withered away, and only Ninghou is left. The incense can be continued in time."

Danger! I am afraid that old Ning Guogong will not have peace under the nine springs! I hereby tell you that your majesty will show mercy and prosper the family to protect Ning!"

Jia Jing: "???"

Jia Jing, who was suddenly cueed inexplicably, had a black question mark face on her face, and then looked at each other with a strange look and Lin Ruhai, who looked strange.

Ren Jingli also said a little strangely: "This head of the Zhen family... why is he so concerned about your Jia family's affairs? You two have such a good relationship?"

The officials present looked at each other in confusion, a little at a loss. The head of the Zhen family was worried about the head of the Jia family that he had no descendants...

Jia Jing laughed twice, stepped forward and cupped her hands to Zhen Yingjia and said: "Master Zhen, I appreciate your kindness. I will marry Master Lin's daughter in the near future, and I will treat you to a glass of wedding wine when the time comes.

"

When Jia Jing said this, everyone except Ren Jingli smiled and congratulated Jia Jing and Lin Ruhai, either from the bottom of their hearts or pretending to be so.

Jia Jing and Lin Ruhai both expressed their congratulations to everyone around them. They did not expect that Zhen Yingjia's next words would startle everyone: "Congratulations to Marquis Ning on your marriage. I believe that Marquis Ning and Lord Lin's daughter will be a talented and beautiful girl. She will definitely be a beautiful girl in the future." It means more children and more blessings, but what about the eldest son of Ningguo?"

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, huh? Ning Guo Changfang?

Emperor Yongxi looked at the heat and asked: "What does Zhen Aiqing mean? Just say it clearly."

Zhen Yingjia cupped her hands and said: "Your Majesty, what I mean is that the Ningguo Mansion is now the head of the second house. The official title of Marquis Ning comes from the second house and has nothing to do with the eldest house. As for the eldest house, not only has he lost his title, but he has also become homeless. What will happen next! I’m afraid if Ning Guogong knows about it, he will feel regretful and angry."

Jia Jing's face turned slightly ugly when he heard this. Everyone was also a little confused as to what was going on with Zhen Yingjia. Why did he provoke Jia Jing so easily?

Isn’t the relationship between the Zhen family and the Jia family pretty good? Why are you just catching up on other people’s scandals now?

As we all know, the eldest son of the Ningguo Mansion cannot die anymore. Jia Zhenjiarong and his son committed suicide themselves, and now they have successfully committed suicide! The eldest son of the Ningguo Mansion was also the one who did it themselves!

"Therefore, I request your majesty to allow the Marquis of Ning to concurrently serve as the eldest son of the Ning Kingdom, so as to extend the lineage of the Ning Kingdom!"

As soon as this statement came out, the first reaction of everyone present was not shock, but they all looked at each other with doubts on their faces. What do you mean? Jia Jing Yanning, the queen of the chief minister's house? What's the matter?

However, Jia Jing slowly opened her eyes and looked at Zhen Yingjia. Her somewhat ugly face suddenly turned sunny, and she almost jumped up to Zhen Yingjia and kissed him twice: "Uncle! From now on, you are my kiss." uncle!"

Now this group of people don’t know what Jianzu means, but Jia Jing still knows it. This saying originated from Emperor Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty. Because Jiajing was the main sect that Xiaozong entered, there was a big ceremony incident. The final solution It’s “all-in-one”!

The little emperor who was only seventeen years old actually single-handedly defeated Yang Tinghe, a veteran who had been in the officialdom for decades. He could have taken the opportunity to become a powerful minister earlier than Zhang Juzheng!

As soon as Emperor Jiajing came out, he showed that he was much superior to his brother, with terrifying political methods and shrewd mind! It can be said that he is the master of the ancient and modern emperors!

However, the term "concurrent" actually existed after Jiajing, but no one used it and it was not recognized. When it was truly recognized by law, the Qing Dynasty was almost dead...

During the reign of Guangxu, in view of the increasing number of concurrent wives in the south of the Yangtze River, the matter was put on the table. The court was forced to recognize the orthodoxy of concurrent wives, and married wives were protected by law!

But if you think about it, it’s already the Guangxu period, and it’s only been two years since the death of the Qing Dynasty...

So in fact, in ancient China, there was no such thing as both husband and wife, and it was not recognized. As for the so-called equal wife...

In fact, it is just a saying. The so-called saying of one regular wife, two equal wives, three wives and four concubines is actually not orthodox etiquette. In ancient times, no one dared to marry an equal wife. The so-called equal wife, to put it bluntly, is a concubine...

…

After all, according to ancient laws, officials and citizens under the age of forty and without children cannot take concubines, so naturally they do not recognize the so-called equal wives.

The wife's status is very high, and she is usually a good match. In this case, who would want you to marry three wives? What about the uniqueness and dominance of the wife? Who has the final say in the rear house?

Therefore, Jia Jing, as a modern person who understands etiquette quite well, did not think about equal wives and concurrent marriage at all, because this simply does not exist...

Even if he dared to mention it, Lin Ruhai and Ren Jingli would break his legs...

But Zhen Yingjia's words still made Jia Jing's eyes light up. It doesn't matter if you don't admit it. Just keep one of your wives there. The emperor only needs to acknowledge me!

Then I can marry both of them?

Of course she was extremely excited, but Jia Jing didn't dare to show it, and even pretended to be very confused like everyone else!

Lin Ruhai frowned. He had been in Jiangnan for so long, how could he not have heard of Jianxi? It was precisely because he knew it that he resisted!

After all, my daughter is legitimately going to be the wife of Marquis Ning. But you come out and say you want to marry Jia Jing again. Who can be willing to do this?

Which of you is not monogamous, but you have two wives?

Of course Lin Ruhai, an outsider, is too lazy to take care of it, but who can take care of his own family’s life? But the problem is that it involves his own daughter, so he can’t bear it!

This is how a man is, if his son falls in love prematurely, he will only give a thumbs up, that brat did a great job. If his daughter falls in love prematurely, he will want to pick up a knife, I want to kill that brat!

Seeing everyone's puzzled expressions, Emperor Yongxi took the initiative to speak to Fang Xianke, the Minister of Rites, and said: "Your Majesty, the so-called "contemporary ancestry" should be a custom in the south of the Yangtze River."

Fang Xianke glanced at Zhen Yingjia and said, "One son and two sons. If within a sect, the big sect is extinct, it can be agreed upon within the clan that the son of the smaller sect can inherit the family, and the big sect will not be extinct."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone here started talking among themselves. Fang Xianke continued: "Because many of the sons of Xiaozong are unwilling to abandon their parents or leave the Xiaozong. For the sake of humanity, do not let the Xiaozong

After the father and son of the clan were separated, they allowed the son of Xiaozong to marry two wives, one as the principal wife of the smaller clan, and the other as the principal wife of the larger clan in name, but in reality still the wife of the smaller clan. In this way, one son is responsible for both families, that is,

For the sake of concurrent worship."

As soon as this statement came out, the civil and military officials started talking about it. Ren Jingli raised his eyebrows. Hearing this, it seemed that something was wrong!

Ren Jingli glanced at Emperor Yongxi, then at Jia Jing, and smiled inwardly. When he turned around, he saw that Lin Ruhai's face was slightly ugly!
To be continued...
