Becoming The Real Rich Daughter After Divorce

On the carriage back to the palace, Qiao Jinniang said to Lu Chen displeasedly: "Is there really no way for Xie Yun to marry Qiao Ruoyi?"

Lu Chen replied: "The two of them hate each other, and the gift of marriage is just to create a resentful couple.

Moreover, the Xie family has many rules, and the difference between the concubine and the concubine is deeply rooted. The more they are from a family, the more they care about the concubine. "

Qiao Jinniang heard the words and said: "The aristocratic family is already at the end of its strength, so you still care about the concubines. Everyone says that the heirs are the most important and take concubines, but the concubines and concubines in Chang'an are talking about marriage, but they are greatly affected by the concubines. affected.

What is the difference between concubine and concubine? It's because men are happy for a while, but let their children suffer. If officials in Chang'an are not allowed to take concubines, let's see where they come from, and where do they come from? "

Lu Chen smiled lightly, "That's right, except for officials and eunuchs, merchants don't care about the difference between the son and daughter."

Qiao Jinniang: "Then you may issue an imperial decree not to allow concubines?"

Lu Chen smiled at her: "I still want to be emperor for a few more years."

Qiao Jinniang: "..."

Lu Chen looked at Dan Kou in her hand and said, "However, it's okay to let the concubine and the concubine share the property at the same time. You said that if the power of the concubine and concubine gradually grows, those mistresses will still be willing to take concubines for the husband. ?"

Qiao Jinniang thought it made sense, "I'm sure I don't want to. It's okay for a mother to suffer a little bit of grievance, but once the interests of the children are lost, how can I make a wish?"

Lu Chen said: "If a man in the world wants to take a concubine, he needs his wife's consent. If those house mistresses are unwilling to take concubines for their husbands, it will gradually become the norm not to take concubines without imperial edicts."

Qiao Jinniang felt that there was some truth to it. Nowadays, most of the men who take concubines are those who are the mistresses, either for the reputation of virtuousness, or to avoid being said to be jealous.

Anyway, the concubine and the concubine will not take much money from the public when they get married and get married, and when the family business is divided, the concubine will not get much.

But if the distribution of concubines and concubines is the same, see if those women are still so generous, would they still be willing to take concubines for men?

...

Qiao Ruoyi was recuperating in bed, so naturally she couldn't make it to the official office, and Hong Qifeng became busier now.

The wedding invitations from the Jingwuhou Mansion have all been sent to the nobles in Chang'an. Now the happy event is not going to happen. Qiao Ruoyi is pregnant and there is a lot of noise. Many people can't find out that Qiao Ruoyi is pregnant after watching the jokes of the Qiao family. Whose child is it?

In a teahouse with many women in Chang'an City, everyone was talking about the law that was just promulgated.

If the family is separated after the death of the parents, the family property is divided equally between the son and the unmarried daughter, regardless of the concubines.

Usually, most people divide the family after the death of their parents. With such filial piety, no one dares to divide the family when their parents are around.

Now that the legitimate son and the concubine share the same family property, what is the difference between the legitimate son and the concubine?

There are very few courtiers who oppose this matter.

Those literati and officials who marry prostitutes and prostitutes pay more attention to them, because they don't want the name of concubines to ruin their sons.

However, they would feel that the distribution of the family property to the concubine was a matter of the future, and the concubine was also his own son. Although His Majesty's imperial decree was inappropriate, it was not so acceptable.

But the wives of a group of honorable officials were dumbfounded. Their sons lost so much property. Although it was a matter of death, which woman would not plan for her own children?

The young wives agreed not to take concubines for their husbands, and the husband could not take concubines without their consent.

If you raise a foreign family, you will raise a foreign family. Anyway, the adulterous children born in the foreign family can't even pass the imperial examination. Let's see which woman is willing to ruin her child's life for the foreign family?

Nowadays, women can do business for female households and have the help of the government. Those who are incapable of doing business can also be embroidered by the government, making pastries, etc... Now that they can support themselves, who would still be willing to be a concubine? .

There are also some wives who give sterilization drugs to the maids around them as roommates.

But there is also an imperial decree that private pharmacies are not allowed to sell sterilization medicine and child-avoiding medicine.

"Why did Your Majesty make such a decree so well? My husband was reluctant to give up his family property to his concubine, but he hugged his concubine and said that he would not have to worry about him in the future. I was about to die of anger. Concubines can't play around anymore."

"That's right, I won't take concubines for my husband anymore, don't just bear the reputation of being unvirtuous, just admit it, I can't let my son suffer all kinds of grievances."

When many men realized that their wives no longer agreed to take concubines because of this decree, it was already difficult to write a letter to change it.

The granddaughter of the Marquis of Anyuan had full moon wine, and the excitement was extremely lively. Princess Shou'an ordered someone to make a golden calf the size of a palm for her granddaughter.

Even the Supreme Emperor and the Empress Dowager Zhou who were far away in the south of the Yangtze River also sent a lot of rewards.

When Hong Qifeng came to Anyuan Hou's house as a guest, she never saw Qiao Ruoyi, so she asked Zheng Xiao to go and see Qiao Ruoyi.

Zheng Xiaoying said: "You go."

When Hong Qifeng went, Ye Suxin also followed her and said, "Where are you going? Are you going to see Qiao Ruoyi? I heard that she is pregnant. It's really embarrassing. The empress didn't even deal with her!"

Hong Qifeng looked helplessly at the person who was about to become his sister-in-law, "Don't follow me."

However, Ye Suxin reluctantly followed. She had disliked Qiao Ruoyi for a long time. She was obviously a concubine, but everything was above her.

...

Qiao Ruoyi was basking in the sun under a tree in the courtyard, she gently shook her fan, and after a while, she heard the sound and opened her eyes.

I saw a maid beside Xie Yun and brought her some blue oranges.

"A few days ago, Miss Wu said that they are acidophilic. These are green oranges specially picked from Sichuan. They are sour when you bite into them."

Qiao Ruoyi said to the maid next to Xie Yun: "Don't bring me these in the future, I won't eat them if you bring them, who knows if Xie Yun has poisoned my child in the past?" Woolen cloth?"

Xin Lan, the servant girl of the Xie family, said: "This is the master's special order, how could you poison it? The master really values ​​the young master in your arms."

Qiao Ruoyi sneered, if she valued it, why would she ask her to kill the child right away.

Lan Xin said: "The master knows that you like to grow orchids, and specially built an orchid garden for you. You can also raise those orchids well in Chang'an. Would you like to go and have a look?"

Qiao Ruoyi protected her lower abdomen and said, "Did Xie Yun think that after he tricked me into Lanyuan, he forced me to kill the child?"

At first, Qiao Ruoyi didn't want this child, but after hearing the persuasion of others, she still kept the child after shedding so much blood, which showed that the child was destined for her. Gradually, he was reluctant to give up the child.

"How could it be? The master has never been so kind to a woman. When he was in the south of the Yangtze River, he had never spoiled the empress so much. The master just feels that he cannot marry you. I am sorry for you and just wants to make some compensation to you."

Yan Yu's voice came from outside, "Miss Hong, Miss Ye, why don't you two go in outside the courtyard?"

Ye Suxin was thinking about what she had just heard, the Xie Yun that Qiao Ruoyi was talking about was the dead Xie Yun?

Then Xie Yun is obviously a woman, how could she become a man?

I heard that Patriarch Xie in Jiangnan is quite famous in Chang'an, and he looks exactly like Xie Yun. Could it be that Xie Yun is Patriarch Xie?

And Qiao Ruoyi is pregnant with Patriarch Xie's child?

The servant girl also said, back then in the south of the Yangtze River, did the master dote on the empress?

Ye Suxin suddenly remembered the portrait she picked up at Hong's house that day, it looked like the portrait of the Empress when she was young, and there was a word Yun on it, if Xie Yun was a man, she drew a small portrait of the Empress...

Doesn't this mean that Xie Yun has an affair with the queen?
