Huang Xi lives from me

"Is it wrong for us to abide by the virtue of chastity and tranquility?" Liu Yuanxiang retorted unconvinced.

"There is nothing wrong with abiding by women's morality." Su Qian did not refute this time, "But have you forgotten that the so-called morality is used to discipline oneself, not to restrain and attack others."

"Being self-respecting and ignoring others will lead to resentment!" Su Qian looked at these nobles, "What the sages said is to be strict with yourself and tolerant of others. Good luck everyone, it's completely the opposite."

Everyone was ashamed by such a statement, and they had no room to refute.

Because they are indeed as Su Qian said, when things don't happen to them, they can blame others unscrupulously in the name of morality, but when it really happens to them, they really realize how much they have gone too far.

"And! If you agree to keep chastity to the core, then you have been "dirty" just now! You should also do what you said, die for martyrdom!" Jun Xi turned the topic back to martyrdom.

Su Qian didn't speak, she acquiesced to Jun Xi's words.

No one spoke anymore, and the atmosphere suddenly fell into a suffocating depression.

Everyone finally understands!

The princess is letting them choose, is it for their lives?Or the so-called festival?

"Your Highness! Your Highness the Crown Princess! My daughter doesn't want to die!" A timid lady broke the deadlock first. She knelt in front of Su Qian, crying uncontrollably. I don't want to die!"

This cry caused a large chain reaction.Those young noble girls haven't practiced the calmness of their mothers yet. The three-foot white silk given by Su Qian has already made them panic, and now it's like the last straw that crushes the camel's camel. collapsed.

"You don't want to die, but the hundreds of thousands of widows and widows in Daning don't want to die either!" Su Qian looked at the ladies crying coldly, "Since you want to talk about virtue, I will discuss it with you when I come here."

"Daning has been in the country for more than [-] years. Years of wars have resulted in millions of casualties and hundreds of thousands of widows. Let's not talk about the life and death of these women and children. Let's talk about what I need most in Daning now is to recuperate. Father Huang Yan Wu Xiuwen ordered hundreds of thousands of soldiers to disarm and return to the fields. But six out of ten of these soldiers are bachelors. You may not know that after years of war, it is difficult for young girls to survive."

"Why?" A lady asked, she was very puzzled, as a human being, why it is so difficult for a girl to survive.

"Disregarding the physical differences between men and women, let's say that when the Hu barbarians entered China, it brought war and famine. People who were extremely hungry would eat people! There was a kind of slaughterhouse in the Jiangbei area back then. It's people, real people."

Su Qian's words were still very soft and gentle, but they made all the faces turn pale.These people are born noble, even if they were born in troubled times, they have never experienced war and famine.This is the first time they have heard of cannibalism.

"In addition to the butcher's house, the common people even eat their own sons." Su Qian narrated the cruel facts, "Eat them after changing their sons, and cook them when they are disassembled. I eat what I gave birth to..."

"Your Highness, don't say any more..." Liu Yuanxiang changed her stubborn and unyielding attitude just now, she felt that she couldn't listen anymore.

"Why don't you say it? Aren't you curious, why is it so difficult for girls to survive? Because... people in the world value boys over girls. They think that men are heaven and women are weak... a family The first sacrifice must be the daughter!"

"Women in this world...is it so difficult?" A noble lady said, her voice was so hoarse.

"Women in troubled times have a difficult life, and you still use these polite rules to harm them." Jun Xi looked at the crowd with an expression of "how can you bear it?" "It's not a matter of chastity, but starvation is a minor matter. He said this because he couldn't starve to death at all! Those who starved to death were all ordinary people under his slander!"

Facing Jun Xi's ridicule, this time even Liu Yuanxiang was silent and did not refute.

Su Qian sighed, "Let's talk about the marriages of hundreds of thousands of soldiers. You know, because you want to promote your so-called chastity, it may eventually make it difficult for men in Daning to marry wives, and widows have no support. Thousands of people are hindered from marrying."

The ladies looked ashen, they never thought that the consequences would be so serious.

"The foundation of a country is the people. If there are no people, the country will not be able to grow. You all believe that widows must observe festivals and die to disrupt the country's marriage. In less than 20 years, the population of Daning will be greatly reduced, and ten houses will be empty." , the country is not the country."

Now, even the noble ladies felt the seriousness of the matter.

"If you want to talk about virtue, then I would like to ask you. What is more important, the righteousness of the family and the country, or your personal honor and disgrace?"

"The righteousness of the family and the country is more important than personal honor and disgrace." Mrs. Ding Guogong said firmly. "His Royal Highness's words were like enlightenment, and the courtier's wife was ashamed, and almost became the person who brought disaster to the country and the people."

Mrs. Dingguo's words seemed to have pressed a certain switch, and the people who were still filled with righteous indignation just now felt a sense of remorse in their hearts, and confessed to Su Qian one after another.

Mrs. Xie knelt in front of Su Qian, "Your Highness, most of the officers and men under his command are single when he is fighting on the battlefield. He once asked his wife to choose a relative for them. The wife should be the person who knows the most important relationship. How do you know that?" She is so stupid that she almost helped the tyrants to abuse her. The minister's wife is really ashamed, and she is willing to offer her dowry to those widows of martyrs, hoping that they... will live a new life as soon as possible."

Mrs. Xie, she is giving her dowry to those widows as a make-up, hoping that they will meet their lovers again.

"Madam is righteous!" Su Qian helped Madam Xie up.

Seeing this, others followed suit one after another, expressing that they would donate some gold and silver to add some capital to the remarriage of those widows, and contribute some meager strength to the country.

Jing Sheng looked at the people beside her, and conquered everyone with her words. She stood among the crowd, like a noble and pure moon, and was worshiped by everyone.

Jing Sheng suddenly thought of a word.

The hope is to return!

Compared to Jing Sheng's adored appearance, Jun Xi couldn't help but roll her eyes.

With Su Qian's mouth, the dead can be said to be alive!

Ladies and gentlemen, have you forgotten that just now this person forced you to hang up the southeast branch?
