Quick wear is not a cannon fodder

So Fang Sanniang, who couldn't marry in advance, went to Mr. Fang and asked Mr. Fang to break off the engagement.

What she said was quite sincere.

"Father, people are dying again and again in Prince Duan's Mansion. This shows that God thinks that Prince Duan's Mansion is not good and does not want the second sister to marry. In this case, why doesn't father comply with God's will, cancel the marriage in Prince Duan's Mansion, and find another wife for the second sister? How about a better marriage? Our family is now a second-rank official, what kind of person can’t find the second sister?"

"Besides, people die every year in this palace. I don't know if there is something wrong with their family. Otherwise, why would people die every year? My daughter heard that miscarriages and male deaths often occurred in their family. She just I'm afraid that there is something fishy in Prince Duan's Mansion, so even if it's for the safety of my second sister, it's best to call off the marriage."

It has to be said that Fang Sanniang did her homework when she came to Mr. Fang to discuss this matter this time, and she was not just talking casually. That's right. Fang Sanniang is getting older now, and she will naturally think more and more about problems. More and more thoughtful.

Then Mr. Fang scolded him back again.

"Every day, what nonsense are you talking about! Go back and reflect on it."

Fang Sanniang had no choice but to let it go. After all, no matter how she had an old lady as her backer, she was a native of this era and the patriarchy was overwhelming. Naturally, she did not dare to go against Mr. Fang. As a concubine, She dared to say these words to Mr. Fang because she had the courage to support her belt. Otherwise, an ordinary concubine would not dare to talk to the parents like this.

Since he didn't dare to confront Master Fang, Fang Sanniang naturally had no choice but to stop her activities when Master Fang scolded her like this.

In fact, even though Mr. Fang scolded Fang Sanniang, he was actually a little worried in his heart.

Just like Fang Sanniang said, Prince Duan's Mansion is also a little bit evil. People are dying of old age year after year.

If he had known this in advance, Mr. Fang would definitely not have allowed his daughter to marry into Prince Duan's Mansion.

But now, the engagement has been arranged, and as time goes by, two or three years have passed since the daughter was ready to get married. The daughter is now seventeen or eighteen years old. At this age, it is still necessary to cancel the engagement, even if the Fang family is now the second It is difficult for a high-ranking official to marry into a good family.

That's why Mr. Fang didn't agree with Fang Sanniang's opinion. After all, if he withdrew from the palace's marriage, it would be much worse to find another one. How could this be done?

It’s just that I can’t help but murmur in my heart.

In fact, not only Mr. Fang and others thought so, but other families in Beijing also thought so, wondering why people died every year in Prince Duan's Mansion.

In the past, male children died in infancy, and pregnant concubines were prone to miscarriage. Everyone can understand that, after all, in this era, pregnancy miscarriage and male death in infancy are common occurrences.

But things are different now. The ones who die now are adults, one every year. This is terrible.

Because of this, it has become much more difficult for the men in Prince Duan's Mansion to take in concubines, except for the fact that the ones who died were all concubines, so some people made random guesses, wondering whether these concubines were tortured to death by the manor. , in this case, who dares to dream of this glory and wealth? After all, glory and wealth are good, but you have to live to enjoy them.

As a result, the market situation of the men in Prince Duan's Palace outside has become worse, and fewer people are throwing themselves into their arms. This is a good thing for the wives of the men in Prince Duan's Palace. After all, even if there are three wives and four wives in this era, Concubines are normal, but who likes a husband with many women?

Although there are fewer people throwing themselves into the arms of their husbands, the reputation of Prince Duan's Mansion is not good outside. People will think that Prince Duan's Mansion is unlucky, and they will be considered unlucky wherever they go, so Everyone had to refute rumors everywhere, saying that those concubines had been in poor health, so it was normal for them to pass away.

It's not like they were lying, they were telling the truth.

Of course, the poor health of those concubines was also caused by various reasons. Some were caused by being poisoned by others, and some were caused by their sons being killed and being in a bad mood. In short, each had its own reasons.

Of course, poor health does not prevent them from killing other people's sons, so naturally within the scope of An Ran's control, An Ran cannot feel pity for someone who kills someone because of poor health. After all, they want to be pitiful. Aren’t those who were killed by them even more pitiable?

Although people in Prince Duan's Mansion everywhere say that it is normal for these people to pass away and ask everyone not to make unreasonable associations, many people are still very open-minded and have all kinds of ideas. They are materialistic and think that fighting in Prince Duan's Mansion is bad and not good; Yeah, I think the feng shui of Prince Duan's Mansion is not good, and it's not good that he always likes dead people.

Whether it is materialistic or idealistic, the final answer is that Prince Duan's Mansion is not good.

Fortunately, none of the principal wives in the mansion died. Otherwise, people might be more afraid of Prince Duan's mansion, and no one would be willing to marry into Prince Duan's mansion.

Seeing that people outside are so afraid of Prince Duan's Mansion, those who still want to harm others have to stop. After all, if at this juncture, he kills another person, people will even say that Prince Duan's Mansion is not good. In that case, it will not be a good thing for your children to get married in the future.

Because many people who harmed others have stopped, the atmosphere in Prince Duan's Mansion has improved a lot. This is an additional benefit that An Ran has brought to Prince Duan's Mansion by killing those murderers.

Because Mr. Fang was unwilling to break off the engagement, it was useless no matter how irritable Fang Sanniang was. She could only curse the Anron family with Aunt Liu in private.

Don't blame them for cursing. They didn't take full possession of the private house and gave it to An Ran and others. The marriage was also delayed by An Ran year after year. How could they not curse out of anger and hatred.

In fact, not only Fang Sanniang was irritable, but the Prince of Changning County was also a bit irritable. He once again complained about how his father had so many concubines and one of them died every year, which made him unable to complete the task. After all, without these women, there would only be parents and brothers and sisters. , it is impossible for one person to die every year.

But his father had dozens of concubines, and they were all registered in the government office, not the concubines in the folk word - the reason why he did this was because it was convenient for him to inherit the title in the future, otherwise, if his biological mother The origin is unknown, and the clan government is afraid that someone from the clan will pretend to be someone to defraud money and title. What should I do if I don't recognize him? Therefore, generally, any concubine who gave birth to a child in the clan would have her name listed in the yamen in a formal manner. It doesn’t cost any money anyway, so just hang it up. It’s better than having a title for the child born to a concubine who has no title. It would be better for a child born to a concubine with no status to have a concubine with a status as his mother and cause trouble in the future.

But in this way, if there are too many people, it is really possible for one person to die a year.

If the concubine is a concubine in popular terms, the kind that is not recognized by the government, she is not considered a concubine, and she will die if she dies, and their sons do not have to observe filial piety.

She was an officially recognized concubine, and it would be impossible for her to die without honoring her filial piety.
