At the beginning, he will be divided by five horses of Tang Taizong

"Let's go, can His Majesty let you eat and drink enough?"

Without any explanation, Hou Junji dragged Yuchigong up to the Yucui Tower.

Three wine tours

The two of them chatted thoroughly, Hou Junji pulled Yu Chigong and kept talking about the prince's superiority and the prince's inferiority, and praised Yuchigong's past achievements, the purpose of which was needless to say, everyone could feel it.

From Hou Junji's point of view, Yu Chigong is the most simple and honest person, that is to say, he is a little silly and likes to take credit for himself.

I remember the last time when I returned to Beijing, because Li Daozong was sitting in his superior position, Yuchi Jingde became furious and punched Li Daozong in the eye, almost blinding him.

Afterwards, he was severely warned by His Majesty.

Yu Chigong laughed and said bluntly, "Drink!"

Taking advantage of the break between drinking, he looked at Hou Junji quietly, his drinking capacity was much bigger than that of Koko Hou Junji, after a few times, Hou Junji couldn't stand it anymore, but Yu Chigong acted as if nothing happened.

"Brother Junji, I haven't been in the capital these few years, but what interesting things have happened?" Yu Chigong kept saying what Hou Junji said.

Hou Junji said in a daze, "There is a character from our Tang Dynasty. Your Majesty has paid several visits. The crown prince, King Wei, and King Wu all value him, so he ran to his house twice in three days."

"Ah? What's the matter? Someone from Princess Gaoyang's mansion?" Yu Chigong looked surprised.

"So this person is really talented!"

"That's right, I heard that this person has gone to Wu, and Wu Wang Li Ke accompanied him, and His Majesty even sent the Duke of Wei. How awesome do you think this person is?"

"Send General Li Jing to protect him?" Yu Chigong asked again.

"call"

Hou Junji was already asleep at this time.

Yu Chigong's eyes were gloomy, if there were acquaintances around at this time, how dare he be called stupid?

This person is afraid of being taught a lesson. He may have been so simple and honest before, but people will always change. He still remembers the words of His Majesty after he beat Li Daozong last time: "I read the "Book of Han" and found that the heroes of Han Gaozu can protect their own. Rarely, I often blame Han Gaozu in my heart. Therefore, after I ascended the throne, I always wanted to protect the heroes and make their descendants safe."

"But after you became a high-ranking official and kept violating the laws of the country, you realized that Han Xin and Peng Yue were killed. It was not Han Gaozu's fault. The most important things in governing the country are rewards and punishments. You can't give too much extra favors. Be strict with yourself and don’t do things you regret later.”

Yu Chigong was terrified when he thought about it later, and couldn't help but start to reflect on his behavior.

In particular, the past few years have been placed by His Majesty in Xuanzhou as the Governor of Xuanzhou, and the awe in his heart is even greater.

When I returned to Beijing this time, I wanted to stay in Chang'an, but I was determined not to participate in the seizure of the heir apparent, but this man named Qin Shou was shocking.

At this time on the Huai River

After Li Jing left, the thoughts in Li Ke's mind continued to rise and fall, and he couldn't help turning his eyes to Qin Shou.

Therefore, wherever Qin Shou went, he would follow him, sometimes even serving tea and water while there was no one around to show courteousness.

This made Qin Shou feel unnatural, "Third brother, what are you doing?"

"Ahem..." Li Ke scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "Brother-in-law, third brother has been holding something on his mind all this time, and he doesn't know what to do. I want to hear your advice."

"Third brother, you're out of touch now, just say what you want!" Qin Shou waved his hands and said.

"That I want to ask my brother-in-law, as a bastard, is there no way to inherit the family business?" Li Ke finally gritted his teeth and asked this question deep in his heart.

Ok?

Qin Shou suddenly looked at Li Ke, "Third brother, are you a concubine?"

Li Ke nodded awkwardly.

What the hell!

Qin Shou's eyes suddenly brightened, is there such a thing?

Qin Shou said with a strange expression: "I said why the relationship between father-in-law and mother-in-law doesn't seem to be so good. I can't imagine there is such a thing behind it?"

"Old uncle really didn't lie, father-in-law is better at playing than old uncle!"

"How many concubines does father-in-law have?"

Li Ke's face became hot, "It's okay, not many?"

He dared not tell the truth.

But Qin Shou said in surprise: "Not many? My God!"

Qin Shou opened his eyes wide, shook his head meaningfully, and said, "Mother-in-law is such a nice person, yet father-in-law has a woman outside? No wonder my mother-in-law had a bad face when she came last time."

Li Ke: ""

At this time, he looked at Qin Shou with embarrassment on his face. He suddenly regretted asking this question. Why did he feel so excited after hearing this?

Nima!

The point is not whether there are concubines, but the question of concubines I mentioned, okay?

Chapter 129: Old Fang, there is no grass anywhere in the world

"Third brother, why have you never seen those girls before?"

"This....."

Seeing this guy's excited gossip, Li Ke blushed, "Brother-in-law, let's not talk about this!"

Qin Shou was full of energy, his eyes sparkling.

This is interesting!

No wonder my father-in-law asked me to find ways to strengthen yang, and it turned out to be rooted here.

Qin Shou asked again with a smile: "I'm surprised. How can so many women look down on him like his father-in-law looks like?"

"Is it a good job? Tsk tsk tsk,... I can't figure it out!"

Li Ke: "..."

With a dark face, he turned around and walked out. He really didn't want to stay any longer.

If I stay any longer, I don't know what dirty words will come out of this guy's mouth waiting to make up the royal father!

"Yeah, we haven't finished talking yet, third brother, don't go!" Seeing this, Qin Shou quickly pulled Li Ke back, and said with an apologetic smile, "Why are you in a hurry? Can't I stop asking?"

"What did you say just now? What is the rightful relationship?"

As soon as these words came out, Li Ke stopped in his footsteps, turned his head to look at Qin Shou, and said angrily: "The distinction between concubine and concubine!"

"Oh....."

Only then did Qin Shou understand, looked at Li Ke, and asked in surprise, "I guess not? I think my father-in-law should be an extremely enlightened person. Could it be that he also has such a big prejudice against the distinction between concubine and concubine?"

"Big Brother, Fourth Brother?"

Li Ke said with gloomy eyes: "Big Brother, Fourth Brother and Ninth Brother are both sons... Third Brother, I am a concubine. Regarding this issue, Third Brother really doesn't know what to do?"

The last time when Li Ke asked whether there was a dispute or not, Li Ke still asked in a roundabout way, but this time he asked directly.

Although his father seemed to value him very much, he could feel that his father's attitude towards the crown prince, King Wei, and King Jin was completely different from his own.

This point, from how the father usually treats the prince Li Chengqian, Wei Wang Li Tai, and Jin Wang Li Zhi, and how he treats himself and other concubines' sons, it is very clear.

I went to the fief in the 7th year of Zhenguan, and was only recently allowed to return to Chang'an from the fief. Not only did Li Tai, the king of Wei, who was the same age as me, not go to the fief, his father even let him move into Wude Hall to live in Wude Hall. In the palace close to the East Palace, Qi Wang Li Yuanji once lived in Wude Palace and communicated with Prince Li Jiancheng.

Jin Wang Li Zhi has always been by his father's side, raising him personally, and doting on him abnormally.

Even, sometimes he felt that his father looked at him differently.

As a prince, coupled with his sensitive status as the eldest son, the feeling that his fate is not in his hands at any time makes him terrified.

Qin Shou understood what Li Ke meant almost immediately.

This kind of bloody situation often happens no matter what time it is.

Qin Shou couldn't help but said with contempt: "Third brother, I didn't mean you, but the father-in-law's land, what are you doing? Are you still vying to inherit it?"

Father-in-law is just a landlord. Is it interesting for you to fight back and forth like this?

Li Ke looked at Qin Shou, twitched the corner of his mouth, and murmured: "As for, too much!"

"..." Qin Shou was speechless.

"Third brother, it stands to reason that I shouldn't say much about my identity, but I still can't help but persuade the third brother: According to the usual practice, when considering an heir, it is basically divided into these three situations. The second is Lichang, and the last is Lixian...Am I right?"

Wu Wangke nodded.

He understands this truth, and in most cases, the first method is used as the criterion, but he just can't help thinking about it!

Qin Shou patted Li Ke on the shoulder and said, "Isn't that enough? Sometimes, the prejudices in people's hearts are like a mountain, no matter how hard you try, you can't move it."

"What's the use of thinking so much except to increase troubles? It's more practical to go out and start a business by yourself."

Li Ke couldn't help but bitterly said: "But.......the same is a son, why is there so much difference?"

"Yeah, they are both sons, so why should they be so clearly distinguished?" Qin Shou strongly agrees with this.

But then the topic changed: "But there has never been love for no reason in the world, nor hatred for no reason. Do you understand the root of the distinction between concubine and concubine?"

"fundamental?"

Li Ke couldn't help being startled, not knowing why.

Qin Shou said faintly: "That's right, it's basically benefits!"

"The so-called distinction between concubine and concubine is, in the final analysis, the distribution of interests."

"Don't talk about other things, let's just talk about the imperial power and nobles. Which marriage is just a union of a man and a woman? Isn't the deeper level behind it the interests of the two families?"

"Including why there is a so-called right family? Isn't it because he can be supported by his wife's natal family in the future?"

"Take our majesty as an example. Behind the queen is the eldest grandson's family, and the uncle of the country is the eldest grandson Wuji...Eldest grandson Wuji and his majesty have conquered the country together. If the bastard inherits the big position, it will definitely hurt the eldest grandson." If the queen is unfair, it may even arouse the resentment of Changsun Wuji, which will cause the Li Tang royal family to be unstable."

Qin Shou's words made Li Ke's head buzz, his eyes widened suddenly, the light in his eyes flickered, he stared at Qin Shou's eyes, trying to see something.

What does he mean?Why did you suddenly mention Father Emperor?

But Qin Shou continued to say: "Because of the status of the main wife, she must have paid a lot for the family, so she will naturally receive this benefit. The status of the legitimate son will be much higher than that of the concubine son. This is also because their mother Because of their status, it can be said that they are able to enjoy this kind of treatment entirely by relying on their mothers."

"If a person robs other people's functions and status for no reason without paying, it will inevitably cause unfairness. This is why it is said that the legitimate son has the priority of inheritance, and the inheritance right of the concubine is after the legitimate son."

"If it were you, what would you do?"

"Uh...ah!"

When Li Ke was asked this question, he immediately retracted his eyes, and said with a bit of bitterness in his mouth: "If it were me..."

He couldn't go on talking, in the final analysis, it was still about interests!

Behind the queen is the Changsun family, which is of the same clan as the Tuoba family. It is one of the ten surnames of the Northern Wei clan and made great contributions to the establishment of the Northern Wei Dynasty and the consolidation of the political power.

From the end of the Northern Wei Dynasty to the Western Wei Dynasty, Northern Zhou Dynasty, Sui Dynasty and Tang Dynasty, this family has always been a pillar of the family, and has always maintained a place in politics and military affairs, as well as in the change of regime.

But his own mother and concubine are the daughters of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty. The former Sui regime has long been overthrown, so how can the Yang family still have the slightest foundation?

"However, maybe, for example, I will treat everyone equally in the future!" Qin Shou said with a smile.

Qin Shou is also a little bit troubled about the distinction between concubine and concubine in this era.

Just like what he said just now, if Ling'er and Wan Yin had children, he would definitely treat them equally, and even Ling'er and Wan Yin would treat them equally.

From the moment he was dragged to the small warehouse by Pei Wanyin, Qin Shou knew that things were irreparable, but it's not good to make anyone a concubine, he is not afraid of being laughed at, but...

The laws of the Tang Dynasty stipulated that marriage was a system of monogamy and multiple concubines. There was no such thing as equal wives at all. There could only be one regular wife. Marrying two wives was illegal and required a lawsuit.

This damn is also a headache!

Ok?

Li Ke heard the strangeness, raised his head suddenly, looked at Qin Shou and asked, "Brother-in-law, what do you mean?"

Qin Shou scratched his head in embarrassment, and apologized with an embarrassed smile: "No...it's nothing interesting, I'll just use an analogy!"

Although the father-in-law already knew about it, Fourth Brother couldn't let him know about it. If he beat himself up, then thanks?

Li Ke looked at Qin Shou in disbelief, "Really?"

"Ahem..." Qin Shou coughed a few times in a hurry, and changed the subject: "Actually, third brother, if you want me to tell you, don't be discouraged. When you yourself are a rich man, wouldn't all this be easily solved?"

"Ah? Are you a rich man?"

"That's right, when the influence you show is enough to subvert the so-called difference between concubine and concubine, is all this still a problem?" Qin Shou said with a smile.

"As you said, go out and make contributions?" Li Ke asked with glinting eyes.
