Xichun is a Buddhist practitioner [Red Chamber]

In this ancient time, there were quite a few people who kept their wives, especially those whose wives kept strict control over them.If the husband and wife love each other deeply, they are strictly controlled, and it can still be called love, and they will not go outside to steal sex.But if the relationship is not very deep, it is easy to have an outside room, and you know how to hide it, for fear that your wife will find out.

Mrs. Sun's husband belongs to the kind who doesn't have a deep relationship with his wife. He keeps a concubine and doesn't let his wife know.Look, isn't it useful now?

After Sun Shaozu was sentenced to beheaded by the autumn queen, those members of the Sun family wanted Mr. Sun to adopt their children. How could he be willing to adopt other people's children and let other people's children inherit their own things.It's better to let your bastard come in and leave things to the bastard.

So shortly after Mrs. Sun left, Mrs. Sun took the outer room and the two children back to Sun's house without telling Mrs. Sun.He didn't think that his wife could save his son, and if he was sentenced to be executed in the capital, at the foot of the emperor, it would be impossible for his son to be released.

Mr. Sun is not in good health and cannot travel long distances. All he can do is to make the outer room and the two children live better and arrange some things.As for Mrs. Sun, the wife taught such a vicious son, just find a reason to divorce.

It's not that Mrs. Sun is cruel, but because of his wife's temperament, if he keeps this wife, then his concubine will never survive and will be killed sooner or later.So he had to divorce Mrs. Sun and drive Mrs. Sun out to prevent her from hurting his children.

This kind of matter could not be concealed for too long, and the news finally reached the capital and Madam Sun's ears.Mrs. Sun's natal family knew about it, so they had to tell Mrs. Sun.Mrs. Sun's natal family can't stop Mrs. Sun from taking her home, and she can't let her go behind the house.

"Damn it." Mrs. Sun was very angry. She always thought that her husband had no other children, and she was the only one who gave birth.She didn't let the concubines in her husband's backyard get pregnant, and she often found some reasons to send them out. She just didn't want her husband to get too close to other women, and she didn't allow her husband's other concubines to give birth to children.

Unexpectedly, her husband really raised a concubine outside and had a child, which made her feel so embarrassing.

No wonder, no wonder my husband hasn't written many letters to her recently, even if he did, he still told her that if she ran out of money, she should stop spending money in it, it's useless.

How could Mrs. Sun stop spending money? If she wanted to get someone, she would have to spend money, and if she wanted her son to live better in the prison, she would have to spend money.She has to spend money everywhere in the capital, and the money brought to the capital has indeed been spent almost, and the husband has not yet sent the money over.

In the women's department yamen, the noble concubine obtained the emperor's imperial decree to assist the queen, and was appointed as the servant of the women's department. She went to work in the women's department and investigated the case of Su Niang's murder.

"Your Majesty." When the Crown Princess saw the noble concubine, she was very respectful to the noble concubine.

The imperial concubine is in their line, and the crown prince cannot embarrass the imperial concubine.The empress had already told the concubine that if she didn't understand anything, she could ask the concubine.

"Outside, you don't need to call me Your Majesty, you can just call me Master Jiang." Concubine Jiang prefers to be called Master Jiang outside. She is now the servant of the female department and has an official position.

The women's department has just been established, and many people don't take the women's department seriously.The imperial concubine wants to do a good job in the women's department, so what if she has no children, what if she is a dowry for others, she doesn't care.Letting the concubines in the harem laugh at her, the noble concubine didn't feel that she had anything to be laughed at.

If she does well in the women's department, in her day, women from her natal family can also be admitted to the women's department and become officials.I can be regarded as a path for women. Women don't have to marry the royal family for the sake of their families. Not only can they go through marriage, they can also take part in scientific examinations like men, and can also be officials.

The current women's department seems to be a small business, but in the future, it will definitely not be a small business, and the women's department will definitely grow.

"Master Jiang." The Crown Princess bowed to the noble concubine, not in the harem, but between officials, "Today, Lord Lin Daiyulin and Lord Lu Shaohua will come with you."

For cases involving the women's department, it's better to have them investigate before. Those people can't let those people underestimate the women's department, can't let those who slander the women's department, and can't let those who don't allow women at home to take the women's department.

Everything is difficult at the beginning, the princess must first be able to withstand the pressure and do things well.Their women also have to learn to investigate cases. If there are cases involving women in the future, such as women being domestically abused, their women's department will also be able to take action.

When the princess entered the women's department, she also discussed with the queen to see what else the women's department could do.The women's department, the department named after women, there are so many women in the world, it must be involved in many things, and they can do many things.

They listed some things, and afterwards, the crown princess showed it to the crown prince.Some things are feasible for the time being, and some things have to be done slowly, so there is no rush.

The prince didn't feel bad because there were some shocking things on the list, but felt that those points really needed attention.His father wants to be an emperor through the ages, maybe his father really wants the women's department to do those things, the women's department is directly managed by the queen, and the princess is involved. When something happens, there is a ready-made one. The blame.

If it succeeds, the reputation of the emperor, if it fails, it means that the empress and princess are too incompetent to handle it well.

In the history books, countless emperors stepped on the blood of their courtiers when they started the New Deal.If there are too many people who oppose it and you can't continue, then the courtier will come out to take the blame and cut off the courtier's head.

But the empress and the princess are different from the general courtiers. The women's department they opened is not really prying the interests of the major families, but at most it provokes the dissatisfaction of some men.There are also women in the aristocratic family, and there are always some women who want to become female officials, female officials in the true sense, not the kind of female officials who enter the palace as palace ladies.

There are always some aristocratic families who will support the emperor's deeds. This time, some aristocratic women participated in the female department's scientific examination.In order to balance the internal strength of the women's department, the queen still selected two women from aristocratic families to come in, and did not choose too many.If there are too many choices, it will only make the women's department more complicated.Picking two people can also make the two of them compete with each other to see who performs better.

With women from aristocratic families as officials of the women's department, some things are easier to advance. Although the queen has never dealt with court affairs, she also knows how to balance.When the queen managed the harem, she knew that the personnel in the harem were not that simple, and she had to pay attention to many problems.

For example, which concubine's family background, what issues should be paid attention to, if some concubines are favored a little bit, and some concubines are neglected, how to deal with it.

The queen must at least let the harem achieve superficial peace, and not let them fight too much.Even if those concubines really toss a lot of things, the queen has to know how to deal with it.

Therefore, the women's department of the Queen's Bento is a small harem, and the balance of personnel in it must be handled well.Now those women haven't really dealt with the affairs of the women's department, and most of the skills they learn at home are house fighting skills. It is impossible to use all these skills in work. The women's department is not a place for those women to fight. You have to know how to unite.

If the women's department officials don't know how to unite, then the women's department may be disbanded at any time and be taken over by other male officials.

When the crown princess was in the women's department, she had to make those female officials aware of this.Even in today's women's department, there are also male officials who supervise them. To make the women's department truly a department managed by female officials, they need the joint efforts of these female officials.

"These two are good." The imperial concubine nodded. Before she came, she inquired about the current female officers of the women's department, and these female officers had their own characteristics.

If they want to go out to investigate the case, they really have to bring experts there.Lu Shaohua's martial arts is not bad, and it will be fine with a few more guards.

This time, we must let them know that the officials of the women's department are still very powerful, not just women who know how to embroider in the boudoir.They handle the case, not bad at all.

Su Niang's case happened in Zhangdong Town. Zhangdong Town is a small town near the capital. People who go to the capital usually settle here. The development is not bad, not too bad.

In Zhang Dongzhen, Jia Xichun has already arrived here, and is giving free consultations to some elderly people in the town, and giving them some small pills to let them recuperate.But Su Niang's ghost didn't follow her for the time being, and now it was daytime, and she went to see the old man again. It's not suitable for the old man to get too close to the ghost.

Su Niang is also a sensible person, so instead of following Jia Xichun, she went to her in-law's house and stared at her mother-in-law.Su Niang was afraid that her mother-in-law would treat her two children badly. Fortunately, the maid she left behind is still there, and they will take care of her two children. They will now, but after a while, they won't know. Chase her people away.

After Concubine Jiang, Lin Daiyu and Lu Shaohua arrived in Zhangdong Town, Jia Xichun met them by chance.

"Sister Daiyu." Jia Xichun smiled and walked in front of them. Behind her were a few maidservants, and Mammy Xie was also there, "What a coincidence, you guys are here too."

"Are you giving another free clinic?" Lin Daiyu smelled the faint smell of medicine on Jia Xichun's body.

"If you have free time, let's go around." Jia Xichun said, "Let them know that our women's medical skills are not bad, and we can treat them as well."

After Jia Xichun finished speaking, he looked at Concubine Jiang and the others, "Master Jiang is here too."

"There was a murder case in this town. Let's come to investigate." Concubine Jiang replied. She had met Princess Tai'an many times in the palace, and she had a good impression of Princess Tai'an. "Let's go there first."

"Murder case?" Jia Xichun tilted his head, pretending that he didn't know anything, just heard the story, "Is that Su Niang who was poisoned to death after marrying a poor scholar?"

"You know?" Concubine Jiang was puzzled.

"I just heard it when I was taking the pulse. They were saying that Su Niang was poisoned to death." Jia Xichun said, Su Niang was indeed poisoned to death. The poor scholar's mother originally wanted to bury her early. Indeed, it was buried early, and Su Niang's natal family was not allowed to look at it for fear of being discovered.

Because burial was popular in this era, not cremation, so the corpse was buried directly in the coffin without being destroyed.

When the yamen went to dig the grave to investigate the case, the evil mother-in-law cried and refused to let the digging, saying that she could not disturb the deceased.The yamen didn't care about this matter, not to mention that Su Niang's natal family was dug up, so naturally they had to dig up.The evil mother-in-law was thinking about how to deal with the matter, whether she should spend a little money to take care of it, to see if she could let it go, and if she couldn't let it go, she would push it to other people in the house, preferably to the maid brought by Su Niang.

If Concubine Jiang and the others hadn't committed the crime, the yamen here might have dealt with it like that, and casually blamed the crime on Su Niang's maid, and the matter would have passed like this.

"Her mother-in-law and husband don't make a living, so they live on her dowry. She gives little money, and she has to be said not to be filial to her mother-in-law and disrespectful to her husband." Jia Xichun sighed, "It's really pitiful, I don't know if it's like this , or else, I’ll go with you to have a look.”

"Yes." It is impossible for Concubine Jiang to prevent Princess Tai'an from going with them, and it should be impossible for the other party to cause trouble for them.

There are many people surnamed Zhang in Zhangdong Town, but Su Niang's husband's family name is not Zhang, but Zheng.Mrs. Zheng's husband died early, and she raised a pair of children by herself. She worked very hard when she was young, taking care of her son very much, and even let her daughter take care of him as a maid.

Because studying costs a lot of money, Mrs. Zheng asked for a large amount of dowry when she married her daughter, just like selling her daughter.Later, Mrs. Zheng fell in love with Su Niang again, thinking that Su Niang's family was rich, so Su Niang must have brought a lot of dowry.

People like Mrs. Zheng are not willing to do hard work at all. When they were young, they had some involvement with other men and were beaten up.If it wasn't for worrying that she would affect her son's scientific examination, she might still be ambiguous with those men.

Mrs. Zheng is a ruthless person, she can sacrifice all kinds of sacrifices for this son, even if her daughter seldom comes back after she gets married.But sometimes she would be cheeky and go to her daughter to ask for money.

After Su Niang got married, Mrs. Zheng always asked Su Niang to pay money. Even the new house she lived in now was bought by Su Niang, and the maids around Mrs. Zheng were also prepared by Su Niang.It can be said that Su Niang paid a lot for the Zheng family. She bought a new house for them to live in, bought a maid to serve her mother-in-law, and paid money for her husband to study.

In the end, Mrs. Zheng still didn't like Su Niang, thinking that she didn't give enough.Su Niang's husband is also dissatisfied, thinking that she did not give money to clear the relationship.

Concubine Jiang and the others went to Mrs. Zheng's neighbors and asked them a little, and they were able to find out these things.

When Concubine Jiang and the others learned that Mrs. Zheng was such a person, their faces turned dark. The mother and son used all Su Niang's things, so why were they so dissatisfied?

"Some time before Su Niang's death, I heard that she was going to take the women's department exam. Who would have thought..."

"Be careful, don't be beaten out by Mrs. Zheng."

"I heard that Mrs. Zheng has already planned to tell her niece from her natal family to her son. The daughter-in-law here has only died a few days ago."

……

Few of those people said that Mrs. Zheng was good. Mrs. Zheng was an extremely stingy person, and she was only allowed to take advantage of others, not their family.The relationship between the Zheng family and its neighbors is not very good, and some relationships are even worse.

Jia Xichun really wanted to applaud those neighbors, without her mentally suggesting, those people said it.She originally thought that if no one said anything bad about Mrs. Zheng, she would have to arrange someone.Unexpectedly, Mrs. Zheng's relationship with these people is so bad. The relationship is not good at all.

"If you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather sooner or later." Jia Xichun said with emotion, "For a person like Mrs. Zheng, how can her niece be any better? If her natal family is rich, she wouldn't have asked her son to marry someone else before. Now if you marry in the past, you will use other people's dowry to abuse other people's children."

That child is pitiful, and Jia Xichun has promised to help Su Niang, let her two children go to her parents, if they can't go, let them live alone outside, not with Su Niang's husband.

The eldest of Su Niang's children is seven or eight years old, and the youngest is only two or three years old.Seven or eight-year-old children in ancient times should already know a lot of things. If you talk to the older children, you may be able to explain them clearly.Living with his father, sooner or later he will be abused by his stepmother, and his own father will also become a stepfather.

If it doesn't work, let the child meet his own mother, and always let the child live outside with his younger sister.

Jia Xichun thought about the possibility of this matter. It is difficult for children to protect their property. It depends on whether the servant is loyal or not, so Su Niang's natal family should watch over it.

"Just move out." Concubine Jiang Guifei had been in the palace for many years, and instantly understood what Jia Xichun meant, and then continued, "Send them to their grandfather and grandmother. Even if the father is their biological father, is it right?" The son who killed his mother's enemy, this father has to marry someone else."

Concubine Jiang doesn't like Gong Dou, the child she conceived in her early years was lost by Gong Dou.But she was in the harem, and she couldn't do without fighting, otherwise she wouldn't even know how she died.

When Concubine Jiang and others went to Mrs. Zheng's house, they only saw Zheng Xiucai. Mrs. Zheng was taken away by the county government, and his two children had already been taken away by his wife's parents.Su Niang's parents couldn't bear it, especially after learning that their daughter might have been killed by Mrs. Zheng, it was even more impossible for them to let their grandson and granddaughter stay in Zheng's house, so they took the child.

Jia Xichun saw Su Niang floating in the air, and Su Niang saluted Jia Xichun, "My father has already taken the child."

Su Niang's eyes were slightly red. She thought that her parents would not want to talk to her, and she might have to let Princess Tai'an talk about it, but she didn't expect her parents to come and pick up the child so soon.This made Su Niang even more sad, because she blamed herself for not listening to her parents and insisting on marrying Zheng Xiucai.

Seeing that Su Niang's eyes were red, Jia Xichun didn't look at her again, so that no one could find her staring at the empty space.

"In that case, let's go to the county government." Lin Daiyu said.

Lu Shaohua on the side stepped forward and kicked Zheng Xiucai away. Such a scumbag is embarrassed to live and wants to marry another wife, which is really infuriating.

"I'm sorry, I couldn't control myself just now." Lu Shaohua looked at Zheng Xiucai apologetically, "It can't be that your wife died in peace, and controlled me. It's really scary."

"..." Jia Xichun turned to look at Lu Shaohua, this one kicked really well.

After Su Niang saw this scene, she knew that the adult didn't notice her, and the other party said that on purpose.Now that she saw her husband being kicked, she didn't feel bad at all. She had already given up on him. After her death, her mother-in-law told him to marry and fill the house, and he agreed so quickly.

He never cared about her, he just wanted to use her money, Su Niang couldn't help thinking so.
