[Red Mansion] The Grand Master's Counterattack Road

If Jia Hu fell in love with the peasant girl because of her beauty, then if Tu Rui wanted to marry a girl from a poor family who was still showing her face outside to do business, it would really upset the people of the whole country, even the imperial censor. Start to impeach Tu Rui.

"Rui'er, what do you want to say?" At the meeting, Tu Zhen asked because of the censor's memorial.

"I don't quite understand the meaning of Yushi. I think that girl is very good. Because her father passed away, her mother is not in good health, and her younger brother is still young, so she is carrying the whole family. Why is it inappropriate? How can I call her son?" I love beauties but don't love Jiangshan, so why does my son delay the country? In Jia Hu's words, marriage is my own business, and I live my own life. I can marry whoever I want, and it's nothing to hinder others." Tu Rui was arrogant, he reported it to his father early in the morning, and his father naturally agreed, but he couldn't say it publicly.

"The eldest prince distorted the meaning of the minister. The eldest prince is the son of a dragon, and the prince and concubine he married should be worthy of the word "prince and concubine," Yu Shi retorted.

"That's funny. I don't know the other girls, and I don't know what they are tall, short, fat, and thin, and what they do, but the prince and concubine I chose by myself know very well. They take care of the sick mother, pull up the young brother, and support them. The whole family has such high moral character, how can they not be the prince's concubine?" Tu Rui retorted.

"How did this girl show her face?" Yu Shi asked anxiously.

"If you don't show your face, how will you know her? Besides, women nowadays are raised in boudoirs after birth, isn't it because of you literati? Look at the Sui and Tang Dynasties, women can lead soldiers to fight, not weaker than men, There is also Li Qingzhao of the Song Dynasty. Others can also write heroic poems about being born as a hero and dying as a hero. They are much better than you. Aren’t you just afraid that women will be too good and surpass you? Only losers are afraid of women surpassing you, sir Don't be afraid," Tu Rui said.

The censor was almost pissed off, and said: "Women have to pay attention to three obediences and four virtues...".

Before the censor finished speaking, he was interrupted by Tu Rui, and said: "Come on, what are the three obediences and four virtues? Isn't it created by you literati? The previous dynasty won the world, because the royal family was named Zhu. In order to rule you literati, all The reason why Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism is widely promoted is because Zhu Xi is also surnamed Zhu. Look at what Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism said, preserving the principles of nature and destroying human desires. Zhu Xi himself is a person whose private life is chaotic. I also used it as a textbook to teach you, but I didn’t see you killing people’s desires, otherwise how would your children come, and Cheng Zhu Neo Confucianism is full of chapters on suppressing women. You have implemented this well, until now, but still There are great women coming out."

Yu Shi was about to be stunned by Tu Rui's anger.

Tu Zhen took a look at Tu Rui, and let him almost get it, otherwise these old censors would start admonishing him again.

Tu Rui shrugged, glanced back at Tu Zhen, and signaled that it's almost time for you to go out.

"Okay, the daughter of the Li family is strong and filial. Rui'er appreciates such a woman. Since Rui'er appreciates it, that's fine. Qin Tianjian, I will ask Dai Quan to send the birthdays of Rui'er and the Li family's daughter over later. It's a good day, Rui'er is seventeen, look at Hu'er from Prince Zhongxin's family, his son is already one year old, Rui'er, you have to hurry up." Tu Zhen made a final decision, completely ignoring other voices of opposition .

Tu Zhen's consent stunned the courtiers again. If Jia Hu married a peasant girl earlier because of this, it was because of other people's affairs, but this time, it was indeed a royal matter, and this time it was the emperor's son.

All the female relatives went directly to the queen.

The queen is so shrewd, she directly pushed the matter to Tu Zhen, saying, it's rare that Rui'er has a girl he likes, even though her status is a bit lower, isn't she married to Rui'er?Rui'er's status is high. It is said that marrying a chicken is like a chicken and marrying a dog like a dog, so if you marry the prince, you are considered a relative of the emperor. Isn't your status still low?Besides, it's rare for the emperor to agree, so how could I, the queen mother, object to it.

With the Queen's statement, the earlier estrangement between Tu Rui and the Queen has been repaired, which surprised the Queen very much.

In fact, the empress was not happy that Tu Rui married a daughter of the Li family. Her status was too low, but the emperor had already agreed. After coming out, her son, who was not very close to her, also slowly got close to her. She didn't mind the sarcasm of the concubine and the queen mother.

With the two examples of Jia She and Tu Rui, many unmarried sons from rich and noble families in the capital began to resist the marriage model of their parents' order and matchmaker's words. Yes, why should they marry a woman who they don't know at all? Because of the objections of these sons and daughters, many families who are not rich began to release their daughters, and many of them were attracted by these people. Now, those ladies can't sit still. After all, there are only so many outstanding men. If the daughters from poor families are separated, there will be another pitfall. For the good future of their daughters, these families can only slowly liberate their daughters from the back house. At the beginning, the goal of Tu Zhen and Jia She was initially achieved. Yes, the rest will take time to complete, but with the help of this shareholder's mansion, it is definitely unbearable for a woman who is trying to be released to accept the rule of not going out of the door. Tu Zhen's control must be able to see the initial results when he is still on the throne.

In fact, the whole Qing Dynasty has such a large area, cement roads can't be paved all over the country, only the main roads have been paved, and now there are no big trucks, all materials need to be transported manually, so the process of laying cement roads is still very slow Yes, but for cement roads, the common people are still very acceptable.

But cement roads are trivial matters. The most important thing is that the Jiangnan salt field was completely destroyed by Jia She's prescription for drying salt. The most profitable thing now is naturally sea transportation. I don't know how much wealth is shipped from the sea. People are jealous, but this matter is hanging in the Sea Fan Court, led by Jia She, and these people must have Jia She's approval if they want to get involved, and now there are many businessmen who want to line up to see Jia She The Xue family, who dismissed him, also tried to get in touch with Jia Amnesty through the Wang family many times.

In fact, because of the matter of shipping, there are also discordant voices in the Six Departments of the Central Committee, because the Hai Fan Yuan is another department besides the Independent Six Departments, but this department makes a lot of money, and part of the money earned is given to the Hai Fan Yuan. Operations, and part of it entered the private treasury of the Holy One, the Six Departments naturally wanted to put this independent department under their name, this is a golden nest.

"Master, people from Jia's family are here, and people from Jinling Xue's family and Wang's family are also brought along," Lin Zhixiao said.

Jia Amnesty narrowed his eyes slightly, said without saying anything, "Let Lian'er go to receive her, and just say that the king is not here."

"Yes" Lin Zhixiao went out.

Jia Lian heard that his father and elder brother were not there, and now he was the only man in the house, so he had to go out to see guests. He tried his best to keep a straight face, pretending to be stable, matching his cute appearance, Really happy.

Seeing that it was Jia Lian who came out, Jia's mother understood that today's trip was for nothing, but she still introduced the visitor to Jia Lian, saying that they were relatives of the Xue family and the Wang family. up.

When Jia Lian saw Wang Xifeng, his eyes lit up, but he still remembered that he had to put on airs, so he had to pretend not to care, and said, "Then you can come back another day, brother has gone to Sichuan, and my father is probably busy with business at this time. The most urgent thing."

Mother Jia paid attention to Jia Lian's eyes, but she was not angry, she just said that she would come to visit another day.

After they left, Jia Lian was taken to Jia She's study, but Jia She was at home with her eyes wide open. "Father, you are at home."

"I was there, but I was impatient to see that family and asked you to help my father in disaster." Jia She pushed his son out as a shield, not feeling embarrassed at all. "How do you feel today, have you performed well?"

"Naturally, he behaved very well, father, let me tell you, a little girl came here today, she is very beautiful, and she might be able to compete with my sister-in-law when she grows up." Jia Lian nodded affirmatively.

"How beautiful can it be? There are so many girls in this world, and you have seen them all, and if you look good when you are young, you may not look good when you grow up. You have to go to see them when you grow up. That's the real thing." She's so pretty." Startled, a little girl came, could it be Wang Xifeng?If this is the case, it will be difficult for Jia Lian to take a fancy to him again.

After all, Jia Lian was young, and after being fooled by Jia She, he felt that what Jia She said was quite right. He was determined to marry the most beautiful girl in the world. Immediately, his enthusiasm for Wang Xifeng began to fade.

What Jia Amnesty was thinking about was the arrival of the Xue family and the Wang family. The Jiangnan salt merchants were tricked by Jia Amnesty's prescription, and the officialdom in Jiangnan was shaken. Salt, so the influence of the Xue family is also very large. In order to make up for the loss, they naturally want to find other income to make up for it, and the shipping company jumped out at this time.

In fact, some merchants have privately organized fleets to go to the West for trade. Because of the frequent maritime trade, pirates on the sea are also emerging in an endless stream, and the sea is dangerous. Nine out of ten ships cannot return. Instead, they accompany them very well. However, the Haifan Academy, which joined the imperial court organization, is different. The Haifan Academy regularly organizes fleets to go to the West for trade, as well as the navy. The fire system also has a number. When it is obsolete, it will be recycled uniformly. How can their guards be compared with the navy of the imperial court? Moreover, the fleet of the Haifan Academy sometimes suffers losses due to sea storms, but the chances are really small. Compared with the income, it is really negligible.

Jia Amnesty was thinking about the possibility of giving up the benefits of the Haifan Court, but then Jia Amnesty denied this answer, but it is not possible to give up all of them, and it is still feasible to give up some of them. After all, they represent the government, and there are many officials who are inconvenient. For things to come forward, they can be allowed to come forward.

Tu Zhen agreed with Jia She's idea, so he let Jia She let go.
