Eight hundred and ninety-second section transformation of the stone family (2)
Surrounded by Shi Fen's family, Liu Che walked into the lobby of Shi's family.
Then, amid the attentive service and compliments from everyone in the Shi family, he sat down on the throne.
After sitting down, Liu Che said to Shi Fen: "Shi Gong, I'm here today to discuss something with Shi Gong..."
"Your Majesty, please give me your instructions. I will do everything I can to help you..." Shi Fen bowed immediately.
"I have already said that, sir, you don't need to hold court in front of me..." Liu Che smiled and asked someone to help Shi Fen up: "As for today's matter... it's like this, the young master's son Rang has a good character. He is pure and kind, has virtuous conduct, and is known as a gentleman. I am here to talk as a matchmaker..."
When Shi Fen heard this, he immediately said with joy: "The dog is a vulgar man, but your Majesty has protected him as a matchmaker. How lucky he is!"
Then, he turned around and said to Shi Rang who was kneeling behind him: "Rang, why don't you quickly thank your majesty?"
After hearing this, Shi Rang immediately knelt down and bowed like a good baby, and said: "Is it okay for me to obey your majesty's order..."
I have to say that Shi Fen really has a good way of educating his children!
It can even be said to be a new approach.
In other families, at most, filial sons will be born under the stick.
Not so with Shi Fen.
His method of making his sons obedient is very simple. If you don't obey the boss, the boss will go on a hunger strike to show you!
The Shi family members had no ability to resist against their father's move.
Therefore, one can imagine why the Shi family's disciples are all basically carved from the same mold?
With such a dad, it’s hard not to become a product coming off the assembly line!
"Shi Gong, my matchmaker this time is Tiying, the young daughter of the imperial physician..." Liu Che said, "I hope that the marriage between the two families can be completed tomorrow..."
At the beginning, Shi Fen could not close his mouth when he smiled.
Tiying!
A world-famous filial daughter!
Whether it is character or talent, they are all unique!
As the saying goes, when it comes to marrying a virtuous wife, Shi Fen could not be more satisfied than this choice of wife.
However, after hearing the request, the marriage was completed immediately, and the time was so tight that they had to enter the bridal chamber tomorrow.
This was a bit difficult for Shi Fen to accept.
He leaned on crutches and was supported by two attendants, and said: "Your Majesty, why are you in such a hurry? This is not etiquette!"
"In urgent matters, follow the authority!" Liu Che said: "The imperial physician ordered Chunyu Yi to be critically ill. I want him to see his beloved daughter get married before he leaves. And husband, everything in the Imperial Medical Office must not be left without a master. I intend to use Shi Rang as my master. According to the imperial physician's order, his wife Ti Ying was appointed as the imperial physician's minister, and she was in charge of all internal and external affairs..."
Shi Fen's face gradually stiffened.
If he were to abandon etiquette and get married immediately, he could still hold his nose and accept it. After all, the emperor's destiny is as important as the mountain, and the emperor's will is the destiny!
These details can of course be obtained from the authority.
However, after the daughter-in-law got married, she actually had to show her face, and she was also the imperial doctor in the imperial medical office. From the emperor's intention, it seemed that his son was supposed to be a sculpture to protect Tiying?
This was unacceptable to Shi Fen!
Shi Fen has no objection to his daughter-in-law choosing Tiying!
Even limbs were raised in agreement.
However, when you marry, you obey your husband.
In Shi Fen's thinking, since a woman is married, she should support her husband and raise her children, be friendly to her family, and honor her parents.
How is it possible to go out and show off?
Not to mention asking his son to cover for his wife.
Isn't this Si Chen, a hen, always upside down?
Taking a deep breath, Shi Fenggong took off his hat and thanked him: "If this is the case, please forgive me for not obeying the imperial edict..."
Shi Fen said: "Although I am old and decrepit, I have also heard that Zhongni said: There is no morning for a hen, and the hen is for the morning. It is the only source of family..."
"Although I am stupid, I have never heard of a good wife and good mother who is disrespectful in the high hall, whose wife does not teach him, but who goes out to do things..."
Of course Liu Che knew this would be the case.
In fact, Shi Fen's behavior pattern is completely predictable.
This is also the reason for his success.
The emperor would of course prefer ministers who could be manipulated and whose actions could be predicted.
"Please be patient and don't be impatient..." Liu Che stood up and said, "I don't want him to disrespect you and not teach me..."
"Don't you hear that merchants have good wives, and even though they are women, they are also ministers of the country? The former King Wu said: I have ten rebellious ministers, and among the ten, there is only one virtuous woman!" Liu Che said: "I have always come to praise you.
The Tang Dynasty and the Yu Dynasty enjoyed the Yin Dynasty and the Shang Dynasty, admiring the virtues of the three generations! Today, Tiying is a strange woman, and she can be my troubled minister. My husband, since ancient times, loyal ministers must be filial to their sons. On the contrary, how can a filial daughter not be virtuous?"
Shi Fen was immediately speechless by Liu Che's words.
Of course, he could use Confucius' words to refute it.
Confucius did not agree with what King Wu of Zhou said: There were ten rebellious ministers. He felt that there was a woman among the ten, which was simply a scandal to the world, so he thought he was right and deleted the woman's name on his own initiative.
Tell the people in the world: It seems to me that Zhou Wu only had nine assistant ministers.
But the problem is, since we have already said, "I enjoyed the Yu and Shang Dynasties during Jiajia and Tang Dynasties", it is equivalent to saying: Don't fool me with Kong Zhongni.
Although Shi Fen is dull, he is not stupid.
The real fools had already died thirty or forty years ago during the imperial dynasty of Empress Lu and the subsequent Lu Zhongs.
In fact, Shi Fen is a courtier who knows how to adapt.
I recall that at the beginning, when Empress Lu came to the court, the eldest princess of Lu Yuan dominated the world.
He was on the list of courtiers who fawned over and licked the two strong women.
Then he turned his face and disowned them, and trampled Empress Lu and Zhu Lu into the mud. He was also included in the list of ministers who were slandered and slandered.
In the Han Dynasty, no minister dared to deny the correctness of what the emperor said.
The emperor is always right.
If it is wrong, then the world must be wrong!
All in all, under the system of divine right of kings who are ordered by heaven, the emperor, as the incarnation of heaven's will in the human world, has the endorsement of the emperor and heaven in every word and deed.
Even if the ministers disagree with the emperor's policies or words and deeds.
We can only use euphemistic channels to mention the deeds of the three kings and five emperors, the ancient wise kings, and then say: Although I am foolish and do not uphold the righteousness, this is what the ancient holy kings did. I hope that your majesty will inspect it and I will be responsible for it.
Bow again, bow your head and listen.
However, the problem now is that the Three Kings and Five Emperors all used female ministers. From the history books, Shi Fen could not find any examples to refute.
As for what Confucius said?
Sorry, Confucius' status is now equal to that of Han Feizi, Shang Yang, and Mo Zhai.
In the ranking of academic circles, he is behind the Three Kings and Five Emperors, Duke Zhao of Zhou, and Guan Zhong and Laozi.
Applying the words of Tao Te Ching or Guan Zhong are more authoritative and convincing than those of Confucius.
Therefore, it is natural that Shi Fen gets stuck.
When Liu Che saw this situation, he certainly knew that it was time to reveal the ultimate purpose of his trip. (To be continued.)
