Changxia has been monogamous and polygamous for thousands of years. This custom was always carried over from the royal family, from the royal family, to the officials and dignitaries, then to the landlords and gentry, and finally to the common people.

But not every Changxia emperor will do this, and there are a few emperors who have only one wife in their lives and have never taken concubines. Whether it is the "blessed by God" gods through the ages, or the current king of the imperial capital and the ruler of Changxia. The former was forbidden to marry a wife for the rest of his life because of his religious beliefs, so he married a wife in order to continue the incense of the royal family. Legend has it that after giving birth to a son, Emperor Shenci never pampered his queen mother again.

The situation of Emperor Baichuan is relatively special, he and the current Queen Mother met on an expedition, in order to quell the riots of the western sand snake. At that time, Emperor Baichuan was only the prince Baichuan, and in a contest with the sand people, the prince Baichuan was threatened by his life, and it was the appearance of the Queen Mother Baichuan - a sand snake - that saved the prince Baichuan. The prince Baichuan liked brave women, so he lied that he was only the son of a general and wanted to marry her and go home as his wife.

The prince of the year, Baichuan, was suave and heroic, so the sand snake readily agreed, who knew that after arriving in the imperial capital, the sand snake became the princess of Baichuan. After a few more years, Emperor Sheng passed away, the prince Baichuan became the emperor of Baichuan, and the sand snake naturally became the queen mother of Baichuan.

The official version is because Emperor Baichuan loved the Queen Mother deeply, so he did not accept concubines. But the folk have their own sayings, after all, the Queen Mother is a sand snake, and you must always be careful with the snake to avoid being bitten by the deadly fangs in the throat. It's not that Emperor Baichuan doesn't want to take a concubine, but because he married such a wife, he doesn't dare to take a concubine.

The relationship between the emperor and the queen mother is not something that ordinary people can study in detail, and it is just a matter of conversation at the dinner table. During the reign of Emperor Baichuan, the empire's economy rose many times, which was what the people cared about. The combination of Emperor Baichuan and the Queen Mother promoted the development of the Western Desert, and the western part of the country, which had been in turmoil, was much more stable because the Queen Mother was a sand snake. The mysteries of the desert region have also been revealed, especially by merchants, who discovered that the desert was a barely explored trade route, so they went to trade.

There is also the East China Sea, and the large ships that have recently sailed overseas in the East China Sea were all built by order of Emperor Baichuan for commercial use, but they also have combat capabilities. These large ships are twice the size of a pirate ship, and the firepower on board is enough to send any pirate fleet to escape.

Fruits and melons from the rainforest were exported, and horses from the plateau were transported to various parts of Changxia...... These are all the actions of Emperor Baichuan. It's not that the predecessors haven't done the same thing, but Emperor Baichuan has done the best so far.

The current prince Qiangu Tuo is the only son of Emperor Baichuan, and because of the peace of the country and the people during the reign of Emperor Baichuan, the prince has never participated in a formal battle. After the prince traveled in Changxia after becoming an adult, the first thing he went to was his mother's hometown desert, and then along the territory of Changxia, he climbed the northern plateau snow mountain, tamed the wild horses on the grassland, and then rode all the way to Donghai City, and he traveled overseas as a captain, and finally went to the southern rainforest, spent a period of life in the rainforest, and then rode his plateau horse back to the imperial capital.

When he was fifteen years old, he went out with only a bag of gold coins, and when he returned to the imperial capital, he was already twenty-five years old. Emperor Baichuan was very satisfied with his prince, and the people of Changxia learned that the young man who had lived with him was the prince of Changxia after the prince returned to the imperial capital, and they were full of praise for the prince.

After the prince came back, he still couldn't change the problem of traveling, and the prince returned ten years later, and no one knew what the prince looked like when he grew up. The prince often haunts the restaurants in the imperial capital, or the bazaar, it looks no different from the ordinary people, people always come in the streets and alleys to meet the news of the prince tuo, but it is often faked by the young people, and it is quickly made out by people.

Just a few days ago, a man who claimed to be the prince of the prince lied that he could bring a girl to the palace, and the girl picked up the wine glass at hand and threw it at the man, who dodged by lightly, stood up and said to everyone in the tavern—

"I am the prince Tuo, and now I want to take this girl back to the palace. It's a pity that the girl doesn't believe me, and I hope that everyone present can be invited to testify that I am the real prince. If I'm a fake, I'll leave it to everyone here to do whatever they want. ”

"How do you prove that you are really the prince?" the girl glared at the man, menacing.

The man laughed and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, please come with me to the gate of the palace, if the guards stop me and prevent me from entering, am I not a fake?"

"Why should I go to the palace with you!

"Go, girl! if he's fake, we'll beat him up for you!"

"Yes!

"If it's fake, beat him!"

The diners began to coax, and the man looked at the girl with confidence, so that the girl had to start to wonder if the person in front of her could really be the prince? If he was the prince?

"Let's go!" the girl walked out of the restaurant first, hiding the redness of her cheeks.

In this way, the girl walked in the front, and a little behind was the man, and at the back more and more people followed.

The group reached the entrance of the palace. The girl turned around and said, "Come on, prove that you are the prince." ”

The man calmly walked to the guard's door and asked with a smile, "Who am I?"

When the guard saw the man for the first time, he immediately knelt down on one knee and shouted, "See the prince!"

The people cried out in disbelief, fell to their knees, and shouted: "See the prince Tuo!"

The girl stood still. The guards saw it and drank: "Presumptuous! I didn't kneel when I saw the prince!"

After hearing this, the girl hurriedly wanted to kneel, but before her knees touched the ground, she was pulled by the prince Tuo. The prince helped her up and announced, "This is your future princess! We will hold a wedding soon, and the whole imperial capital will celebrate at that time." ”

The girl was directly stunned, as if she had been smashed by a huge pie. The guards reacted quickly and hurriedly shouted, "See the crown princess!"

In this way, the prince took the girl into the palace, and a large number of people looked at each other. No matter how much they want to break their heads, they can't figure out why the prince wants to marry such a commoner-born girl without the slightest background.

The reason for this is probably only known to the prince himself.
