Prince Lin Xu sat quietly in the darkness and asked calmly: "In other words, Qiu Linjiang plans to start with military households instead of real disarmament?"
The man in the dark replied: "Yes, not only that, but Qiu Linjiang also provided some methods that can basically solve the livelihood problems of these military households after their military pay is cut off. If you are smart, you can even make money."
Lin Xu was silent for a while, and said quietly: "Qiu Linjiang, who suddenly rose to a high position and is not conceited, is the only way a magnanimous gentleman can act, but he is afraid that it will ruin Gu's important affairs." He sighed softly: "
Implement the 'Mole' plan ahead of schedule. During the implementation of the new law, a group of people will definitely be vigorously promoted. This is a good opportunity for Gu. Gu Zheng can use Qiu Linjiang's knife to cut off a group of people who are against Gu.
, and then he used his east wind to lift up the lonely people."
The man in the darkness was silent for a moment, and then slowly said: "Your Highness is optimistic that Qiu Linjiang can succeed?"
The corner of Lin Xu's mouth moved, and a sinister sneer formed: "Qiu Linjiang has made too many enemies, and sooner or later he will be captured. If he is unlucky, he may even be killed. How can he succeed?"
The man in the darkness was a little confused: "Now His Highness's people have taken advantage of Qiu Linjiang's influence to rise to power. Once Qiu Linjiang loses power, several major families may join forces to eliminate them. What should we do?"
Lin Xu smiled with an air of having everything under control: "Mole, you must have the ability of a mole. If you can't make both Qiu Linjiang and the famous sect believe that they are 'ours', these moles will
Why does the rat still need to exist? Taking advantage of the east wind of Qiu Linjiang to ascend to power, and then secretly inform the famous sect, pretending to be a famous sect's meticulous work is not difficult at all."
The man in the darkness listened and agreed: "Since His Highness has already made a plan, your subordinates are relieved. Your Highness, please rest assured that every Mole subordinate will personally explain it, and there will be no mistakes."
Lin Xu nodded: "You can do things, I can rest assured." He paused and then said: "What's the current situation in Qianqiong?"
The man in the darkness said: "The Blood Begonia Project is going very smoothly. According to the planned plan, the portion has always been relatively small. Although the doctors are a little suspicious, they can't find anything. They can only attribute it to the fact that the sky is busy with everything, and the vitality is exhausted.
"
Lin Xu showed a satisfied smile on his face, but his tone was still calm: "That's good, but I need to inform her so that she can reduce the weight by a few percent in the near future, so that the sky can show signs of recovery."
The man in the darkness said: "Restore the sky?"
Lin Xu shook his head: "Of course not, it just makes the imperial doctors feel that the medicine they prescribed to strengthen the body and strengthen the body is somewhat effective. In addition, Qiu Linjiang's coming to power created an opportunity for Gu to strengthen his strength, and Qiu Linjiang must
You need strong support from Cangqiong to take power, so Cangqiong cannot have big troubles for the time being, otherwise a chain reaction will occur, which will be detrimental to Gu's plan."
Lin Yuyan has spent the busiest period of time. The craftsmen of the Yun family have been completely settled. Various raw materials have begun to be shipped to Huai'an from all over the country. The first batch of several newly built giant workshops have begun.
The people who went to sea gathered a group of experienced old people from Yinfengzhai. At the same time, Nangong Wuyu's Nange also sent a group of capable members to accompany them, so that they could contact the mysterious Four Seas Business Alliance after arriving in Nanyang. According to Yun Zheng's instructions, several
Ming Yun family descendants also went with them, obviously intending to accumulate experience to form the Yun family's own overseas trade team in the future. However, considering that Lin Yuyan has actually become most of the Yun family, she has no objections to this——
It is obviously very difficult for Lin Yuyan to have an opinion on something that is good for Yunzheng.
Chengfeng Trading Company under the name of Yun Zheng went to sea for the first time. As the Sea Shark Gang, which has actually become a vassal of Yun Zheng, it is natural to prepare for war with all its strength and strive to provide a perfect escort for the new master so that Yun Zheng can clearly see them.
What a huge role it plays, you must never give up, and you must never abandon it...
Now that Lin Yuyan is free, it is natural that Nangong Wuyu is also free. Coupled with Chao Yuqiu, who is not very busy in the first place, the three girls often get together. Maybe it is because of some tacit understanding in everyone's hearts.
, the relationship between the three girls has developed rapidly. It has not even been a month, and they are already close friends. Of course, these three close friends cannot talk about some real "secrets" for the time being, especially
Although Lin Yuyan and Nangong Wuyu have a close relationship, they still test each other from time to time. The test is not about anything else, but they both want to know how far the other person has developed with the person in their hearts.
On one point, Chao Yuqiu is obviously relatively "aloof". After all, Nangong Wuyu knows her situation very well and knows that she and Yunzheng have not made any substantial progress at least yet, and she herself also knows her current status, let alone her relationship with Yun Zheng.
Lin Yuyan is thousands of miles apart, and even she is incomparable to Nangong Wuyu, so she can "step aside" with peace of mind.
Although Lin Yuyan knew in her heart that her status as a big woman would not cause any surprises, but although she was a typical thinker under the education of patriarchal power, she wished she could take the initiative to help her husband take concubines, but she could not completely abandon the natural female mentality.
He cares very much about his status in Yun Zheng's heart, so he really wants to know what happened to Nangong Wuyu and Yun Zheng.
Nangong Wuyu is not as sure as Lin Yuyan. She knows that she will definitely not be able to compete with Lin Yuyan in terms of status. The status of Princess Huai'an has already determined that Yunzheng's first wife will only be her in the future, but she cannot compete with him.
You can also fight for an equal wife.
It has been said since ancient times that "one wife, two equal wives and four concubines" means three wives and four concubines. However, in fact, the current Wei Dynasty has already relaxed restrictions on the number of concubines, but equal wives are still restricted, even if
A person who is extremely popular can only have one wife and two wives at most.
So what happened to the flat wife?
The most wealthy people would have multiple wives and concubines, and those who had two wives were generally punished. However, after the emerging aristocratic class developed, they often entered into marriages out of political needs, or the superiors granted marriages to win over capable subordinates. Whether it was a marriage or a betrothal, this
Women are naturally their own relatives and cannot be treated as concubines, and most of the people they marry or win over are young men who have successful careers and are not yet married. In this way, a new rule gradually emerged: equal wives.
But the same cannot be said for civilians. Even if you are as rich as the country and have the money to pay for 10,000 concubines, maids and concubines, you can only have one official wife. This is called "every husband and every wife". Of course, there are still differences among "wives".
The first wife is the first wife, the first wife, the first wife, the social status is equal to that of the husband, and she enjoys the same treatment in terms of etiquette, such as clothing and carmaking, whether at home or outside, while the second wife is slightly inferior, but she does not have to pay concubine courtesy to the first wife, and her family status is basically
same
Yunzheng is the hereditary eldest son of Duke Yun, so he will naturally have the status of Duke in the future. He can have two equal wives.
However, there is a habit in the Wei Dynasty, that is, betrothal gifts and dowries are getting higher and higher as if they have wings. Comparisons are common, weddings are lavish, the amount of betrothal money is extremely high, and many people marry for money, and the marriage capital has actually become
This resulted in a huge burden on the family. Poor men could not afford to marry, and poor women could not marry. It was regarded as high justice to help those who had lost their time in marriage, and the recipients would even erect monuments to express their gratitude. So bridal marriage appeared again, and the children took their mother's surname.
, it is also popular nowadays. The main reasons are that the marriage salary is too high, the bride price of the groom's family does not meet the social standards, so he has to marry into the bride-in-law, and there is no man in the family to recruit a son-in-law to marry into the family. The widow does not marry and recruits a son-in-law to marry into the family. Of course, it is not decent to marry into the bride-in-law.
Even if you are looked down upon, your status cannot be determined by your assets. This was very practical in the Wei Dynasty. Another characteristic of this is that the woman’s dowry is generally richer than the man’s betrothal gift. Generally speaking, it is twice as much. If the woman cannot collect the dowry,
Those who cannot get married are like a minister who came from a poor family a few years ago. In order to raise a dowry for his sister, he actually asked the emperor to arrange a high-paying job for him. Some people even borrowed loan sharks in order to raise the betrothal gift or dowry.
Specifically speaking of how high it is, the simplest metaphor is that when Yun Lan married Ning Wanting, the dowry given to Ning Wanting by the Ning family can illustrate the problem. It included not only one hundred thousand taels of gold, but also countless jewels.
She also brought with her dozens of stores of various types in the three provinces of Jiangnan, with a total of about 2,000 rooms. The last item is even a total of 60,000 hectares of fertile land in Jiangnan! The reason why Ning Wanting can often make up for it when the Yun family's finances are tight.
It is because this dowry is so generous (if the wife is alive, even though the dowry belongs to the Communist Party, it will be taken care of by his wife) that Nangong Wuyu is willing to fight for equal rights, it is obviously also because she does not worry about this matter.
Apart from anything else, Nange still has a lot of accumulated financial resources. As long as the Yun family does not deliberately create problems for her, with her status and wealth as the legitimate daughter of the master of Nange, she is fully "capable" of marrying into the Yun family.
It’s just that Nangong Wuyu also has some other concerns. The first concern is naturally the intention of the person involved, Yun Zheng. According to her innermost thoughts, although Yun Zheng is very kind to her, she also has a great enemy, Beishan Wuxue.
To some extent, Yunzheng's wife is a big bargaining chip for the "close connection" between the Yun family and certain aristocratic families in the court. God knows whether Yunshan Shuai is willing to give his son's two wives to Jiange.
?Beishan Wuxue met Yun Zheng before her. This has always been a thorn in her heart. She has to make preparations.
Another concern is that Lin Yuyan, the princess who everyone knows has been pre-decided, will be the heir apparent. Even though ordinary wives usually don’t have to greet the head wives when meeting them, in fact, their status is still incomparable, especially when the eldest wife is the first.
In this situation, if the lady is dissatisfied with the new wife and insists on not letting her in, unless the father-in-law and mother-in-law force her to speak, it will be difficult for even the husband to hold on. In reality, Lin Yuyan is especially favored by His Majesty the Emperor.
As a princess, Nangong Wuyu knew very well that if she had a bad feeling towards him, she and Yun Lang would be in more than ordinary trouble. Naturally, she didn't know that Yun Zheng's words were 100% effective for Lin Yuyan. She could only follow them.
Judging from ordinary circumstances, I came to the conclusion that as long as I want to marry Yun Zheng, I must have a good relationship with Lin Yuyan no matter what. If the relationship with her is not good, even if I can get into the Yun family,
Being thought about by such a special wife, the days to come will definitely not be pleasant.
Although Chao Yuqiu never said anything about what he was thinking, not to mention that Nangong Wuyu could see it, even Lin Yuyan could see it. However, Lin Yuyan had already had the "big woman's thoughts" in advance, and she just spent a period of time observing Chao Yuqiu.
Yuqiu's character is that he happily accepted this girl in distress. Chao Yuqiu naturally felt the kindness that Lin Yuyan exuded towards him on weekdays, so he respected her more and more, and tried his best to maintain her good impression of him, while Nangong
Wu Yu even saved her once, so she also had a very low profile towards Nangong Wu Yu, and consciously placed her position very low in her heart, not even comparing her feelings towards Yun Zheng with these two.
It was strange, not only because she had the idea of repaying her kindness, but also because Yun Zheng was indeed excellent and it would be a lie to say that she was not attracted to her. In addition, there was a knot in her heart that Yun Zheng had already seen her body, and the concept of chastity in her heart made her
She felt that she really shouldn't let another man see her body again, and since she was now considered a homeless person, Ping Zheng had no way to consider it. So if she chose to stay with Yun Zheng, besides being a concubine, she would have to do anything else.
There is no second way. This is not a Qiong Yao novel from later generations. It is nonsense to be a maid to repay a favor. What kind of status is the Yun family? What kind of maid does not have? If someone is willing, the maid who can fan the fan and light the stove can be both.
Different professionals!
Although the three girls have different thoughts, they are very harmonious together now. In the small pavilion in the rain flower pond in the backyard of the princess's house, the three girls are sitting in a circle, discussing something.
"Otherwise, just send someone to arrest them for interrogation. What about the Leng family? When will the Leng family be able to spy on the princess's mansion? If they feel they are unjust, I will just throw them to the father.
Go and see how Leng Xiang explains it to his father!" Lin Yuyan seemed a little angry.
Nangong Wuyu had other opinions, but she paid attention to her wording and whispered: "Princess, it is simple and effective to do this, but the people sent by the Leng family this time are all people from the world of Sichuan. If these people can't fight to death,
I admit, it’s a bit annoying.”
Lin Yuyan originally meant to be angry, but after hearing what Nangong Wuyu said, she asked, "Does Wuyu have any good ideas?"
Nangong Wuyu said: "The Leng family cares so much and insists on killing all the Yuqiu siblings. It can be seen that there must be a major hidden secret in this matter. Yuqiu is still safe in the princess mansion now. Wuyu means, why not take advantage of it?"
At this time, we will send someone to Sichuan to investigate. If the secret is found out, maybe we can overturn the case for the Yuqiu family."
