"Father, this "Law for the Imprisonment of Concubines" will definitely arouse opposition from many people in the government and the public, and I am afraid it will destabilize the court. Please think again, father. Especially now is the time when the crown prince is changing, even if the officials don't know the truth about his son's 'serious illness'
, but it’s best not to cause trouble again.”
"What you said makes some sense, but my father has already planned this matter. Besides, the Law of Slaves Obeying Father and the Law of Imprisonment of Sins are already on the string and have to be launched, so we can only continue to implement them," Zhu Fangyuan said.
.
Hearing his father's words, Zhu Zai sighed in his heart. Although he didn't know what happened in recent months, he had not heard anything about these two people before he was forced to stay in the palace and was not allowed to leave or meet anyone.
When it comes to the law, at most some people are talking about the fact that due to the status of the children, there are more and more slaves and fewer and fewer civilians due to the status of the children. This is not an arrow that has to be fired.
'My father has abandoned his caution when he took over and acted more and more radically. How can these two bills be implemented so quickly? The "Slave Obeys His Father's Law" is already harmful to the interests of the two groups of nobles, and they should be appeased.
; But then the "Law for the Imprisonment of Sins" was implemented, which made them feel resentful. This should have been gradually implemented within ten years. And it is even more difficult for the crown prince. His father can really run the palace like an iron barrel.
Normally, even if it is known to an outsider, it will lead to huge consequences.'
Zhu thought about it and couldn't help but persuaded: "Father, my son thought that since the "Law of Slaves Obeying Their Fathers" has been implemented, that's it, but the "Law of Imprisonment of Sins" is still suspended..."
But before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhu Fangyuan: "You don't need to think about this matter. Now you are waiting for the imperial doctors of the Ming Dynasty to treat you. When they return, you don't need to take medicine anymore and can start treating you again."
Take care of yourself."
"Father," Zhu wanted to say something more, but Zhu Fangyuan had already stood up and said to him: "As a father, there are important officials to deal with, so I won't talk to you anymore. You will take good care of yourself." That's it.
Left here.
"Father!" Zhu called again, but Zhu Fangyuan had already gone far, so he had no choice but to lie down again.
"Your Majesty, the Crown Princess wants to see you." At this time, the palace maid from the second class walked in again, walked to his bedside and whispered.
"Mo Yu." Hearing the words of the palace maid, Zhu muttered in a low voice. His wife, Jin Mo Yu, was born in the Gwangsan Jin family. As the crown prince, if Zhu Shunli succeeds to the throne and becomes the queen of North Korea in the future, she will naturally not want her husband to be
Abolition of the crown prince position, so Zhu Fangyuan kept it secret from her from the beginning. First, he separated Zhu from Jin Moyu on the pretext of going out to the city for hunting. After returning from hunting, he locked Zhu up in the name of serious illness, and Jin Moyu was not allowed to visit at will. Every time she visited,
At times, people were sent to serve under the guise of serving but actually to monitor Zhu, and even asked Jin Moyu to visit him when he was in a coma. So until now, Jin Moyu still doesn't know the truth about his 'serious illness'.
"Let her in." Zhu said, and hurriedly lay down and pretended to be sick. Of course, the person sent by Zhu Fangyuan to monitor carefully checked whether there were any flaws before letting Jin Moyu in.
"Husband, how is your illness?" Seeing Zhu lying on the bed, Jin Moyu bowed slightly and then lay down next to him, speaking to him with a worried look.
Zhu felt a sense of guilt in his heart. Three days after he was imprisoned in this palace, he had to cooperate with Zhu Fangyuan's plan and deceive his wife. He felt very sorry for her. "When I am released from here in the future,
When you go out, you must treat her well.'
"Mo Yu, my illness is still the same, good and bad, never completely cured." While thinking about it, Zhu Wei said with heart.
"Which doctor's prescription is it that you're taking now?"
"It's Jin Quandou's recipe. I think it's better than the last recipe."
"Even if it's better, I can't cure you, so what's the use?" Jin Moyu said bitterly, and then said: "I met my third brother yesterday, and he said that he found a doctor with very good medical skills in his family.
, I want to send her to the palace to treat her husband."
"I have to tell my father about this. He will definitely not refuse, just like the doctors recommended by the Jin family before. But he will definitely let the doctors in the palace try his medical skills. This is not like the previous one.
, I was exposed after just a little trial." Zhu said. Of course, Zhu Fangyuan would not refuse to send a doctor to the imperial concubine's mother-in-law, but it would always be delayed for a few days. If the medical skills are very high, the recommended doctor will not be allowed to come until everything is ready.
Diagnosing Zhu's pulse, of course, cannot cure his illness.
"Don't worry, husband, the doctor our family is looking for this time will definitely be a good one." Jin Moyu also thought of the doctor recommended by her family last time who pretended to be very skilled but actually only knew one trick, and couldn't help but said: "Last time
After the doctor returned, my father ordered him to be beaten severely!"
"Why hit him?" Zhu said.
"As a commoner, if you dare to deceive two groups of nobles, shouldn't you be punished?" Jin Moyu asked.
"But it's enough to expel him from the house and reprimand him severely. Why beat him?" Zhu replied.
"This is not enough. If you don't let him suffer a lot, he will dare to deceive others in the future. If you let him suffer this time, he will not dare to deceive others again in the future." Jin Moyu paused and continued: "I am the most
I hate people who deceive and deceive people, especially doctors. Although the person who is deceived will lose money, it is only a loss of money and has nothing to do with him. But deception and abduction by doctors can kill people. I am the third wife of my natal family.
My elder brother Chengfu was seriously injured and almost killed by a quack doctor who pretended to be very skilled in medicine. Fortunately, my eldest brother found someone with good medical skills to save him. After this incident, my natal family lost everything.
People are very disgusted by quack doctors who treat patients indiscriminately."
"Chengfu? Is he that person who looks somewhat similar to Chengjun?" Zhu asked. Jin Chengjun is Jin Moyu's second brother and one of his companions.
"That's him. Husband, when talking about my second brother, I remembered something: after my father heard that Cheng Fu was ill, he sent someone to visit him. This is very strange. Cheng Fu is not an important minister in the court. My father
Why send someone to visit him?"
Hearing this, Zhu felt his eyelids twitching. He said a random sentence to deal with the matter. He stopped talking about it and changed the subject: "Is Zhao'er okay? Since I got sick, I have been worried about it.
I gave her the illness, but I haven't seen my daughter yet."
"Of course Zhao'er won't be mistreated, but she's not very happy because she hasn't been able to see her father."
"When you go back, have a good talk with Zhao'er and tell her that I'm sick and I'll go back to see her when I get better. By then, I can stay with her as long as she wants me to."
"How could your husband be like this?" Jin Moyu said with a smile: "As a heir, my husband has a lot of things to do after you recover from your illness. Even if your father allows you to take a few months' leave, you can only spend these few months with Zhao Zhao."
Son, you can’t stay with me as long as you want.”
Zhu smiled and didn't say much. He just said in his heart: 'I'm afraid you don't know that when my 'illness' is cured, I will no longer be busy.'
They talked for a few more words, and a female official came over to persuade the imperial concubine to put the prince's body first and persuade her to go back. Jin Moyu did not argue, but just told Zhu a few more words to take care of himself, and then got up and left the room.
palace.
But before walking out, she looked back at Zhu who was lying on the bed, and said in her heart: 'Husband, I hope you don't blame me in the future.'
…
…
"The Crown Princess has gone back?" Zhu Fangyuan said after hearing the female officer's words.
"Yes, Your Highness, the Crown Princess has returned." The female officer lowered her head and said again.
"You go down." Zhu Fangyuan nodded and said. The female officer bowed and quickly left.
"Your Highness, the Crown Prince's condition has been getting worse and worse, and the Crown Prince has no heirs. Your Highness had better make preparations in advance." A current official sitting in front of him said something.
"Hey, I still hope that the prince's illness will recover soon, and I have never thought about this." Zhu Fangyuan said, and then quickly said: "Let's not mention this matter, Xu Aiqing, how is the implementation of the "Law for the Confinement of Concubines"?
"All the two classes of nobles already have only one head wife. Those who marry multiple wives will demote some of their wives as concubines. However, even if they are demoted as concubines, they are still good concubines and cannot be demoted to humble concubines.
concubine."
"The restrictions on the official status of evil sons have also been implemented according to the separation of legitimate concubines. Naturally, the legitimate sons in each family do not want to have one more person to divide the family property, and most of the heads of each family do not care about the evil sons born to the concubines.
, the implementation was very smooth. Except for a few people whose official positions exceeded the official rank, no other evil sons would obtain official positions that exceeded the limit. However, the news released about limiting the official rank of concubines born to concubines aroused fierce opposition from various families.
." The official named Xu Xuan replied.
"I was married as a wife, so I can't be demoted to a concubine." Zhu Fangyuan said this casually, and then discussed the more important topic of restricting the concubine and the official status of the concubine. "It is very easy to restrict the concubine.
But the concubine has aroused opposition from various families? It seems that this matter cannot be implemented urgently and needs to be implemented slowly." He was mentally prepared for the opposition to restricting the official status of the concubine. After all, many people's concubine status is not
For the sake of the peace of the family and the sake of not becoming enemies with the in-laws, the ministers and officials would not agree, but the fierce opposition he encountered was still beyond his expectation.
"Your Highness, when His Highness planned to spread the news, I told Your Highness that this matter should not be implemented urgently, and that the news should not be released early so as not to alert others." Xu Xuan said again. The "Law for the Imprisonment of Sins" was formulated with great effort by him.
, so he was very concerned about the implementation of this law. Seeing that Zhu Fangyuan was too eager and might cause problems in the implementation of the law, he couldn't help but said in a slightly complaining tone.
Zhu Fangyuan smiled and didn't care about Xu Xuan's complaints. Xu Xuan was very loyal to him and considered everything for the court. He was a little happy to hear the small complaints. "Xu Aiqing, the rumors are just rumors and don't mean anything.
Since various parties are fiercely opposed to it, it’s okay not to implement it for the time being or even wait ten years before implementing it, so don’t worry about it.”
'Every family must suspect that His Highness deliberately spread the rumor, and I am worried that they will become dissatisfied with His Highness and even hinder the implementation of other laws.' Xu Xuan thought.
