The Concubine of the Red Chamber is a little flower essence

"collapse?"

White Snake waved his hands and laughed: "That's not the case, that old thief Gu has become a wedge..."

Xiao Huajing frowned: "What wedge?"

White Snake covered her eyes and smiled: "The fairy will know it with a water mirror..."

Xiao Huajing disdains wasting spiritual power for outsiders, but she knows that Gu Shoufu must be humiliated this time.

The turtle mother came at this time and poked the white snake with a finger: "The fairy asked you to do something, you do it like this, don't stain the fairy's eyes."

The white snake slipped into the veins of the earth.

Then Mother Turtle explained to Xiao Huajing: "The white girl cast a spell to arrest the two old thieves. Mrs. Gu Shoufu rushed to catch the rape, beat and scolded, but the two of them hugged each other.

Mrs. Shoufu was pulled hard, and the two of them cried and howled, and the old thief fainted immediately.

It was only then that Mrs. Shoufu realized that it wasn't that Gu Shoufu was not old and shy, but that they were inseparable at all, and the two men and women were connected into a chain.

The Gu family recruited all the traumatic doctors in the capital to the Gu family, but whoever dared to separate them would be killed. "

Xiaohuajing finally understood.

She held her forehead: "This white snake is too naughty."

It was enough to alarm Mrs. Gu Shoufu to make a fuss in Biyun Temple, but the White Snake made a fuss in the whole city.

In the future, the white snake can no longer handle private matters.

The little flower spirit told the turtle mother: "Working turtle mother, go there, don't let people die."

Only when people are alive can they extract the maximum value.

Xiaohuajing quietly stared at the Qianqing Palace.

When Emperor Qianyuan got the report, he was both laughing and annoyed.

When the chief minister of the court did this, he was ashamed and went to grandma's house.

Coupled with the fact that the two of them still had an affair, it was embarrassing for the imperial court to use such a person as the chief assistant.

It took less than an hour for this matter to come out, and Gu Shoufu's memorial flew to Emperor Qianyuan's case like snowflakes.

Xiao Huajing was looking at the reception minister of Emperor Qianyuan who was in a good mood.

Although the imperial court was a bit embarrassed, Emperor Qianyuan was able to take the opportunity to suppress the officials, especially the civil servants of Gu Shoufu, who were all like quails in mourning. Emperor Qianyuan was in a very good mood.

This matter quickly spread in the palace, Princess Rong was a pioneer, and she entered the palace cleanly and told her mother-in-law, Concubine Min.

After Jiahe Emperor Daxiang in September, Emperor Qianyuan allowed Concubine Min to go out of the palace to live up to her old age, but Concubine Min said that she would serve the Empress Dowager in the palace.

The empress dowager stays in the palace all day, and she doesn't leave the palace all day.

On the ninth day of September, Concubine Min was allowed to go out of the palace to watch a play at Prince Rong's Mansion for a day.

Emperor Qianyuan also promised that every year on the concubine's birthday, she could go back to her private house to celebrate.

Concubine Min is currently living in the Palace of Compassion and Ning, and what she knows, the Queen Mother will soon know.

The draft list provided by Xiao Huajing to the empress dowager included four girls from the Gu family, and the empress dowager asked Nanny Ping to send a letter to Xiao Huajing at the Kunning Palace: The moral character of the girls of the Gu family is not enough to match the royal family.

After hearing the news, Xiao Huajing didn't care to watch the excitement, and hurriedly went to the Palace of Compassion and Ning to report to the Empress Dowager: "I am going to report to the Empress Dowager, but now not only are there people participating in the performance of Gu Shoufu's lack of self-cultivation, but also people are participating in the performance of his accepting bribes, Selling officials and nobles, indulging clansmen to run rampant in the countryside, seizing the people's land, and occupying the people's daughters."

The empress dowager was shocked when she heard this: "It's only been less than an hour, and these things come out?"

Xiao Huajing said: "This is because Gu Shoufu is too arrogant in his work. He suppressed the officials in the court and squeezed out Du Shoufu's people. The Six Departments also arranged cronies in various ways to exclude dissidents."

The Empress Dowager sighed: "The army is defeated like a mountain. How does Your Majesty make a decision?"

Xiao Huajing shook her head: "I don't know."

The emperor would generally not come forward in this kind of thing. It was the civil servants and military generals who jumped up and proposed various punishment regulations, and the emperor finally chose a path that was more beneficial to him.

At present, the officials of Gu Shoufu's line have not betrayed the water, and the emperor is still waiting.

Gu Shoufu also helped His Majesty before. At the beginning, Gu Shoufu bet on His Majesty with those princes. If the bet was right, he became the Shoufu.

Now, this chief assistant is out of date.

Emperor Qianyuan wanted to replace him, but he couldn't find a suitable opportunity. Now the White Snake gave him a chance.

In other words, Gu Shoufu himself gave His Majesty a chance.

It is up to His Majesty to decide whether the Gu family will copy and execute all their families, or send them to their original place of origin, but it depends on how much benefit Gu Shoufu can give His Majesty.

This benefit does not refer to money, but refers to how loyal Gu Shoufu's disciples are to His Majesty.

If Liubu becomes like a walnut in the hands of the emperor, play with it as you like.

Emperor Qianyuan truly ruled the world.

Xiao Hua could understand clearly that after this incident, the civil service system has been demolished, and for many years to come, it will definitely be ridiculed and suppressed by military officials.

At the very least, there will be no incidents of civil servants pressing down on military officials to suppress them.

Gu Shoufu was imprisoned, and the tone of the court changed immediately. Jia Daishan's proposal was supported by all the officials.

Xiao Huajing immediately secretly sent a message to Jia Zhu, asking him to advocate that the widow's voluntary remarriage be included in the scope of the law. As long as the widow herself voluntarily remarries, her husband's family and her mother's family must not forcibly intervene to obstruct it, otherwise it will be a first violation of the law.

Xiao Huajing also privately summoned her sister-in-law Du Qing and her eldest aunt, Mrs. Zhang, and once again assisted Mrs. Zhang, asking them to go back to comfort her husband and support this rule.

Xiao Huajing's words are very straightforward: "Men and women are born of parents, why do women have to be treated so unfairly? It's okay for a man to have three wives and four concubines, why does he still ask the woman to keep the chastity for him after he dies?"

Of course, this involves the relationship between the father. If the father is deeply affectionate and the woman is willing to keep the chastity, the court will not interfere.

Remarriage and chastity are all private acts, and outsiders are not allowed to interfere.

The eldest aunt of the Zhang family deserves to be from a scholarly family, and she has been running the Zhang family for many years.

She said: "Your Majesty has worked so hard to seek the well-being of the women in the world. The concubine understands it very much and feels deeply. It's just that many things are involved in it, such as the issue of children and the distribution of property."

Xiao Huajing has already had countermeasures: "Madam's words are very true, but the laws of the Tang Dynasty and the Xingtong of the Song Dynasty have a clear definition of this matter, and the laws of the Great Moon Dynasty are also evolved from the laws of the previous dynasty.

The three cardinal guides and five constant rules come from the Han Dynasty-Baihutong-Sangang Liuji. However, the Han Dynasty did not object to widows remarrying, otherwise the mother of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty would not exist.

We can copy all kinds of punishments from the previous dynasty, why should we over exaggerate the three cardinal principles and five constant principles when only targeting women's rights?

After the Han Dynasty, the laws of the Tang Dynasty and the Xingtong of the Song Dynasty, regarding the formulation of funeral etiquette, all had the etiquette of children keeping filial piety for their mother who remarried, and the father who remarried for his mother. Even in this dynasty, Lord □□ supported widows' remarriage, but no law was formed.

This court preached that starving to death is a small matter, while injustice is a major matter, but some people exaggerated it too much for their own selfish desires, or misinterpreted Zhu Zi's theory. What Zhu Zi said was voluntary, not forced! "

Mrs. Zhang did not expect that the empress's reading is so broad, covering both the previous dynasties and the later Han Dynasty.

In fact, it was Xiaohuajing who did the hard work and asked Kou Gongzheng and Fu Shanggong to find chapters and excerpts for her, and summarize useful things for use.

Her head can't hold these books at once, or it's unnecessary.

Her secretarial team of six bureaus and one department, there are also five library buildings in the palace, so naturally someone will go to read the books for her.

Emperor Qianyuan currently supports the remarriage of border widows. This is a common trend, and Xiaohuajing must seize it.

Although His Majesty supports the remarriage of widows, it is because of the thin population of the border, and there are still many people who oppose it being included in the law.

For this reason, there was another quarrel in the court.

This time, the military officer became the leader. Although the civilian officer had many opponents, it was in stark contrast to the previous time when he bit the military officer.

All of a sudden, a general found out that the origin of the sage Confucius was not so glorious.

What's more, the military general who reported it also pressed this statement on Lord □□, saying that Lord □□ looked down on Confucius because of this.

Of course, this is taken for granted. No one knows the real reason why Grandfather looked down on Confucius and Mencius.

Emperor Qianyuan had a laissez-faire attitude towards such things that did not belong to the national plan and would not hinder the development and revival of the Great Moon Dynasty.

He only cares about the affairs of the country and moves in the right direction.

Then, not only did the widows in Shanxi obtain the support of His Majesty in their recruitment, but Emperor Qianyuan issued an edict to encourage widows to remarry. For each remarried woman, the imperial court helped to buy a dowry of [-] silver.

This is like the Song Dynasty, when a woman from a family who could not afford a dowry because of poverty got married, the imperial court helped to buy a dowry of 20 taels to 40 taels.

How much depends on the poverty of the girl's family, and the wealth of the local government.

Shanxi women remarry, and there is another benefit. Each remarried woman has [-] acres of forest or mountain depressions. Everyone can open up wasteland and farm land by themselves, and the imperial court does not collect taxes for ten years.

Moreover, if the family is willing to send their able-bodied son to serve as a soldier for military pay, the family's tax will be reduced or exempted.

Xiao Huajing's plan to bring widows' remarriage into the law was finally achieved. Although it was only a subsidiary supplementary regulation in marriage, however, widows' remarriage could finally receive the protection of the government, not because a certain official was enlightened and subordinated to the law. A woman of the poor will be favored now and then.

Today is the day when the new moon will come, and widows will no longer be hindered and persecuted when they remarry.

In other words, if a widow wants to remarry, there are reasons to rely on, and there is a reason for being blocked.

Widows can remarry in an upright manner, and those things that sink into pig cages, not to mention extinction, can be greatly reduced.

With a serious way of remarriage, who would go for an affair.

Unless it's a sick existence like Lu Liniang.

This is a big step forward for women's status and rights.

Speaking of this Lu Liniang, she is suffering now.

She just doesn't cultivate her personal morality, but she hasn't violated the law, and the crime of Gu's family doesn't involve her as a stranger.

However, Mrs. Shoufu broke her legs, slashed her face, and drove her out of the house without a trace.
