1165: Vaxu Pei, the first kill of the princes (35)
In his previous life, he had little intersection with Bai Yuexia, but he also knew that Bai Yuexia had a mysterious liking and closeness to His Majesty.
Bai Yuexia's gaze at His Majesty always made him unhappy.
In retrospect, that gaze has not only admiration and adoration, but also a deeper meaning.
Wei Ci's face remained unchanged, but his heart was turbulent.
Bai Ning smiled, "In addition to her appearance, Ah Xia is good in everything, and she is worthy of the best man in the world!"
After that, Bai Ning hinted at Wei Ci with his eyes-
Do you want to change your mind and marry his daughter?
Wei Ci smiled and said embarrassedly, "Bai Yishi is right, Bai Niangzi will definitely be able to find the best husband in the future." ”
If it had been before, Wei Ci would definitely not have worried.
Ever since he knew the origin of his father-in-law, he had some way.
The origin of the lord is mysterious, and the atmosphere in her previous life must be very open, so she regards the male style as ordinary.
So—
Wei Ci couldn't help but open his mind.
The male style is normal, but is the female style also normal?
As soon as he thought of this, he felt that the pressure on his shoulders suddenly became much heavier.
Opening the door to the new world, Wei Ci turned his head and thought about it again, he found that he was surrounded by rivals in love!
Among the huge rivals, Bai Yuexia is the most threatening.
If she was scared, Wei Ci felt that she couldn't do her.
Bai Yuexia in her previous life was a very low-key woman, but no matter how low-key she was, she couldn't hide that she stood tall in the court as a woman, and the official went to the Ministry of Industry.
Judging from the three lists of the Golden Scale Pavilion's civil and military Tiangong, Wei Ci, who did not even have a ranking in his previous life, was under great pressure.
After that, His Majesty proposed the policy of "one door and two households", and Bai Yuexia was also the first in the court to stand up and support it.
In contrast, Wei Ci was afraid of the forces in the DPRK and China, and reacted a beat slower, not as desperate as Bai Yuexia.
What is "one door, two households"?
To put it bluntly, two heads of households are allowed in a family.
Children born to a woman may inherit both their mother's and father's property, and the child's family name and household registration can be determined through negotiation.
Many officials thought that this policy was specially established for the long-term survival of the empress.
At the outset of the proposal, there was almost no objection.
If you oppose "one door and two households", wouldn't you support the empress in disguise and be like an ordinary woman and child, marrying her husband and following her husband?
That's not!
Whoever is against it has a brain that goes into the sea!
However, this is just a philistine opinion, and Wei Ci knows very well that "one door and two households" is actually to support the female household system.
After the establishment of the Jiang Dynasty, the world was peaceful, and there were fewer and fewer women to stand on their own, and in some places there was a culture of despising female households.
It's not that women don't want to set up a female household, it's just that there are too few good men who are willing to join the family, and the pressure to set up a female household is too great.
Many women can only choose to compromise.
Even if they marry and earn more money, their income can only be called "subsidizing the family" rather than "supporting the family".
In order to solve this situation, His Majesty proposed a new set of marriage laws by proposing a family with two heads of households.
Since the beginning of the new law, Jiang Chao has a clear concept of "joint property of husband and wife after marriage".
Of course, concubines and concubines are not considered "joint property", and their daily expenses and future marital residences are managed only by the man.
This point made the majority of the main room applaud, and he was even more grateful to His Majesty.
You must know that before the introduction of this system, many wives in the main room not only had to help their husbands take care of the family property and house, but also took care of the living expenses and various trivial matters of those concubines and concubines.
Although the "one family, two households" is to maintain the survival of the empress, they are also the beneficiaries of the new law.
At first, the Jiang Dynasty men were unimpressed by the new law, and they didn't covet their wives' money anyway.
Even if someone really covets his wife's dowry, who has the face to say it.
There is nothing wrong with the imperial court promulgating laws to defend the imperial family of the female emperor and the concubines of the main family.
And yet—
It didn't take long for many men to make trouble, and they couldn't stand this kind of grievance.
There is a story that Wei Ci remembers deeply.
An official pays a high monthly salary and hires a main office to take care of the concubines and a room of concubines.
That's right, the husband paid for the wife of the main room to help take care of the concubine and the concubine children!
The laws of the Jiang Dynasty stipulate that the purchase and sale of concubines cannot touch the authority of the housekeeper. Fortunately, if it is found that the concubine has seized the rights of the main room, it will be more difficult to hear if it is heard, and if the court officials are found to be touching the housekeeper's authority, they will be demoted or dismissed.
Self-cultivation Qi family rules the country and the world, even the house is chaotic, I don't understand orthodoxy, and I am a fart official.
If the main room doesn't care about the concubines and concubines in that room, then the husband can only take care of it himself.
I went out to make money and went to work during the day, and when I came back at night, I had to settle the rouge gouache and cloth clothes in the concubine's room-
The men are gone!
Many courtiers took advantage of this to make trouble, since ancient times, the male protagonist and the female protagonist, the concubine and the concubine are also the responsibility of the lady of the main room!
As a result, he was severely cut by His Majesty and the nobles of the family, and soon stopped moving.
Jiang Chao is newly established, and most of those who take a bunch of concubines are upstarts or powerful poor families.
Once he gained power, he was rampant, and he got rid of his cousin wife or snubbed his wife, and the cold family of accepting beautiful concubines abounded.
The family has been passed down for a long time, and they have always regarded themselves as supporters of orthodoxy, and there are strict rules for taking concubines. For them, the benefits of the new deal are not big, but they are all kinds of jumps between the cold and the nouveau riche, and the nobles of the family take this opportunity to stand here to suppress the cold family.
Bai Yuexia, as the head of the female official group, is the direction and model of all women's efforts.
She has played a very good role in implementing the new law.
There was a son and a daughter, and the son followed her husband, and the daughter followed her.
Bai Yuexia's son has no ability, but her daughter is different, and she has become the most useful henchman by the side of the princess Jiang Yan.
Intellectually speaking, Wei Ci admired Bai Yuexia very much, and when the world despised women, she walked so high that it was difficult for people to match. Emotionally speaking, Wei Ci really can't force himself to like Bai Yuexia, and it's good not to regard her as a rival.
But if time comes back, he will still come to recruit Bai Ning.
After all, the interests of the lord are the most important, and the private affairs of the children are just a small road.
"Hearing this, Mrs. Bai admires my father-in-law very much. ”
Wei Ci smiled warmly, like a spring flower quietly blooming, splendid and warm.
Bai Yuexia said quickly, "The world treats women so unfairly, but Lan Tinggong still comes to the point where it is difficult for everyone to look up to, isn't it a model for women in the world? was excited for a while, but let the gentleman see the joke. Thanks to Lan Tinggong's refusal to give up, if my father can come out to work for him, calm the world, and clarify Yuyu, it will be a blessing for our father and daughter!"
Wei Ci: "......"
I just want to recruit your father, and I don't count you-
He wants to be quiet!
