This is certainly not occupational discrimination or racial discrimination, and the demands for representing interests are different. Because most of the traversers are alone, even if they have families, they also represent the interests of the traversers, and after the traversers intermarry with the local naturalized people, there are more families with intermarriage objects in the representative of their interests, and it is difficult to maintain absolute loyalty to the crossing group because they are intermarried with neutral local naturalized people, and even with local naturalized people who are hostile to East China. Although East China does not prohibit such intermarriage, it will definitely be treated differently within the administrative system.

However, the administrative system treats the crossers who intermarry with the local naturalized people differently, so it does not cause much controversy, because not every time-traveler wants to take the road of politics, and the time-travelers who choose to enter politics also pay considerable attention to their marriages, so that their respective pursuits are different, and they do not interfere with each other, and there will not be too much of a problem.

And the real problem is the different concepts of men and women in the crossing group on marriage, modern men basically have a dream of a group of wives and concubines, while most women hope to start from the beginning, although there are also a few women who want to raise three thousand faces, but this number is basically negligible, at least among the traversers, such a woman has not been found.

A very small number of the travelers were families or couples who traveled together, and at the beginning of this era, some people married in order to meet their physical needs. However, with the expansion of the ** power in East China, there are more and more traversers who marry with the local naturalized **, so many single or unmarried traversers in the early stage of the traversal have lived a good life with a group of wives and concubines at this time.

In this way, there is a part of the family or husband and wife crossing, crossing the early stage of the internal marriage of the traverser in the heart, there is an imbalance, but the problem is that they are not only married, but the other half is the same traverser, East China ** does not prohibit the traverser from polygamy, but if you are married, and the partner is also a traverser, you must obtain the consent of the other party in order to take a concubine, and it is almost impossible for modern women to agree to their men to raise a mistress, let alone a concubine, which is in East China** , women who cross do not have to be completely dependent on men to survive, so they have more confidence to prevent men from realizing their dreams.

Of course, if all women who cross forbade their husbands to take concubines and raise mistresses, then the situation would be better, because everyone is like this anyway, it is difficult for brothers and brothers, but the problem is that a small number of women who cross do not care about their husbands' concubines, as long as they ensure that they are the status of the wife of the big house, and the law of East China can also ensure this. Their theory is that men can't control it anyway, so it's better to block it than to be sparse, it's better to control what little three concubines are in their own hands, and some people even think more openly, everyone plays their own games and doesn't interfere with each other.

But in this way, it makes other people's hearts unbalanced, so-and-so is also a woman, but he can let his husband take a concubine, why does the family in his own family want to manage himself to death, to put it bluntly, he does not suffer from poverty but suffers from inequality,

So in order to realize the ideal of a group of wives and concubines, some traversers chose to divorce, but there are not many traversers who make this choice, after all, divorce is not a glorious thing, and divorce is to realize the ideal of a group of wives and concubines, even if it is in the old time and space, it is not an act that will be recognized, so among the traversers, such people basically will not get much support, even if someone supports it in their hearts, but they dare not say it easily.

Of course, there are also people who use the usual methods in the old time and space, secretly taking care of them, but fortunately, it is also a very common thing to support the outer room in this era, and raising a junior is not a shameful thing in the old time and space, in a sense, it is still one of the signs of success. However, raising a junior Bi Jing is also a disgraceful thing, once the matter is revealed, it will be a chicken and egg fight, a big show. And such a drama has been staged several times in East China. Those who have not yet been exposed are also worried.

In fact, the Executive Yuan is also quite a headache for such a thing, because when something happens, it will eventually come to the Executive Yuan, although there is a special department to deal with such a thing, but this kind of thing itself is not easy to deal with, the so-called clean officials are difficult to decide family affairs, and it is difficult to clean up once the trouble starts, so that everyone knows.

Fortunately, the current troubles are basically self-employed or traversers in enterprises, there are no ** officials, and they have not caused too bad an impact, so the Executive Yuan is not too urgent to solve the needs of similar things, although Bi Jing is not big, but the contradictions and antagonism are extremely serious, it is really difficult to solve, and now the Executive Yuan has too many things to deal with, and can only put these things aside first, if someone proposes it, throw it into the Senate to vote, and do not take the time to guide, you look at it yourself.

At the end of 1906, a group of female crossers spontaneously formed a "Women's Rights and Interests Protection Association", the purpose of which was to protect the rights and interests of female crossers, and required East China to implement a monogamous system, and severely crack down on concubines and fosters. Now there are more than 100 people who have joined the association, basically most of them are married, and the female traversers who oppose their husbands taking concubines, of course, there are also a few female traversers who allow their husbands to take concubines have also joined them, and they themselves say that it is to protect their status in the main palace. But there are more than 10 men among them, although these people have one thing in common, that is, their wives are all traversers, but there are several people's wives who have not joined this organization, which I don't know why, and according to rumors, they are based on the fact that I can't have a group of wives and concubines, so don't think about it.

Although after the vote, several key members of the Women's Rights and Interests Protection Association also went to Qin Zheng to theorize, but Qin Zheng said that the system of the Council of Elders is like this, and if it is not passed, it means that it is not widely represented, so although he also opposes the concubinage system, he is powerless about it. Several key members also listened, and they could only retreat in a huff.

After turning the page, the next topic was one of the main topics discussed in the Senate during this period. Moreover, it was put forward by the Executive Yuan, and two topics were discussed together, the first was that East China would establish an advisory yuan in 1908 and invite an advisory council;

The Advisory Council is composed of local naturalized people, of course, the candidates are selected and determined by East China, and can represent people from all walks of life in East China, through the consultation meeting, the major policies, decisions, and important issues related to people's lives in East China are consulted and discussed, and at the same time, they can put forward their own suggestions, so that the local naturalized people can play a role in participating in politics and supervision. To put it simply, it is to allow local naturalized people to participate in the political activities of East China**, and have suggestions, as well as certain decision-making rights.

For East China, this is of course a major resolution, because before that, East China can be regarded as a collective dictatorship of the traversers, although within the traversers, a relatively democratic system is still implemented. Therefore, the establishment of the Advisory Council and the convening of the Advisory Council means that the traverser will cede part of the power to the local naturalized people, or the traverser will no longer hold all the power in East China.

Although the principle of the Advisory Council is that the selection of members is determined by the selection of East China**, and at the same time, the resolutions of the Advisory Council only have the power to recommend, and do not have the power to form bills, and whether to implement it will be decided by East China**, or voted in the Senate, so the substantive power of the current Right Advisory Council is actually very limited, but Bi Jing has taken the first step. To paraphrase the popular phrase of the old plane, a gap was opened in a strong fortress. It is not known what the consequences will be if this development continues, whether from now on the time-travelers and the native returnees will live in peace and share power, or whether the time-travelers will open Pandora's box and dig their own graves. And the power of choice is in the Senate this time.

The [Regulations on the Protection of the Rights and Interests of the Elderly] is in the form of legislation to formally clarify the rights and interests of the travelers and protect the interests of the travelers.

Although the current East China ** is a collective dictatorship of the traversers, how much power the traversers have, what powers they can enjoy, and what interests they have, although some systems have been formulated before, there is no complete and clear statement, and no legislation has been formed.

The establishment of the Advisory Council and the convening of the Advisory Council means that the travelers will cede part of their power to the local naturalized people, which will definitely cause tension and panic among a considerable number of the travelers, so the formulation of the [Regulations on the Protection of the Rights and Interests of the Patriarchs] is to reassure the travelers and let them know that even if they give up some of their powers, they will still ensure the rights of the travelers, and they do not have to worry about all the power being taken away or being hollowed out. Therefore, the Executive Yuan decided to discuss these two topics together.

It is precisely because these two issues are so important, not only related to the development prospects of East China, but also closely related to every traverser, in a sense, much more important than the previous founding of the country and the five-year plan, so it cannot be decided by a simple vote, and the Executive Yuan has also specially designed the voting process.

First of all, the day before the discussion, the Executive Yuan first distributed the contents and explanatory documents of the two topics to each of the veteran members, so that they could have a better understanding of the two topics in advance and have a clear understanding of them; then Wang Yunpeng, president of the Executive Yuan, also came to the House of Elders in person to give a detailed explanation of the two topics, and to accept the consultation of the members of the Council, to answer relevant questions, and if necessary, to make certain revisions to the two topics in response to the opinions of the members of the Council, the time is determined according to the needs of the members, and there is no fixed limit; then the members of the House of Elders will be suspended for three days, leaving this time for the consideration of each of the members of the Council, and can be discussed with other councillors, traversers, and finally voted on. This is also the first time that the Senate has adopted such a complex and lengthy discussion and voting process.
