Chapter 161

The people sent out by the palace were very fast, and the general's mansion was not far from the palace, so before the courtiers were not hungry and fainted, the lord of Huifu County came from outside the palace and was announced to the palace first, and Shen Xiaoniang was waiting outside.

As soon as she entered the hall, she saw Chu Junyue standing in the center of the hall with his head down, and ...... The embarrassed middle-aged man beside him, with dark marks on the front of his scarlet official robe, a blue nose and swollen face, Rong Yan couldn't help but guess: Could it be bloodstains?

The eunuch who went to summon the summons only summarized the incident in a few simple words, and reminded her that Chu Saburo was still beating people in the court. As for the extent of the beating, the eunuch didn't say anything, Rong Yan saw the middle-aged man next to him, so he automatically made up for Chu Sanlang's murder process, if it wasn't for the full house of civil and military officials, she would have to praise Chu Sanlang with a half-truth and half-truth: Big brother, you are really good, you dare to run to the court and beat people! Is it to look at the one on the throne who is easy to speak?

The one on the throne is much more serious today than chatting with Rong Yan in the palace on weekdays, and I don't know if it's because her husband beat the courtiers just now. After Rong Yan bowed, he asked about the daughter-in-law of Chen Yushi's family.

"Huifu, today Chen Yushi sued your couple in the court for abducting his daughter-in-law Shen, can you plead guilty?"

Rong Yan looked left and right, and found that the eyes of the ministers contained more eager gossip, and a few of them had green eyes (hungry), and their eyes were very weird, except for the looks of her father-in-law and her father at the front, which were quite normal, so she rushed to say: "Back to the saint, the courtier's sister is neither a young man nor a human trafficker, what did she do when she kidnapped the daughter-in-law of Chen Yushi's family?" ”

Chen Yushi: "......"

Ministers: "......"

Only Chu Junyue had a smile on his face, and there was a lot of praise in his eyes: daughter-in-law, you did a good job!

Chen Yushi was unwilling, he didn't think that he would make a big fuss about this matter today, he first received an old punch from Chu Sanlang, and then was completely denied by the county lord of Huifu, and his angry face immediately became purple and swollen - in fact, the purple swelling that had already been beaten by Chu Sanlang was actually a little deeper now.

"Your Majesty, the county lord of Huifu is clever in her words, obviously she kidnapped my daughter-in-law, my son saw it with his own eyes, how can it be fake?!"

Rong Yan turned her head: "Lord Chen, if I really snatched his daughter-in-law in front of your son, it can only mean that your son is a bear bag soft egg, and his daughter-in-law has been snatched away, and he will only go home to complain to Daddy, how old is he?" Weaned? He comforted him earnestly: "Master Chen, you don't have to worry, the child will always grow up, and when he grows up in the future, he won't be able to take advantage of it outside. She had a tolerant expression of letting children mess around, but her words were quite mean and merciless, which caused many officials in the court to laugh out loud.

Lord Chen is usually above the court, and he is no less mean to others. When the people of the imperial history provoke thorns, they are always surprisingly quick and accurate, and with the gentleness and subtlety of cultural people, a few mean words that sound soft on the outside but are full of thorns on the inside, can always make some officials red-faced and embarrassed. Unexpectedly, it was planted in the hands of the lord and wife of Huifu County today, which was really a miracle.

Especially those officials who have been mean to him on weekdays, they can't help but praise Chu Saburo and his wife from the bottom of their hearts. The couple has a tacit understanding, and the old face of Chen Yushi, who is squeezing, is almost out of place.

"Since the county lord refuses to admit that you kidnapped my daughter-in-law, then I want to ask, has my daughter-in-law been with you since yesterday?"

Rong Yan nodded violently: "Yes, yes, the young lady of the house was indeed with me yesterday." ”

Chen Yushi's face was pale, and he turned his head to Xiao Ze to accuse: "Your Majesty, the county lord of Huifu also said that she did not abduct my daughter-in-law, obviously my daughter-in-law followed my son out yesterday, and then she took her away, this is a fact!" She admitted it herself! ”

Xiao Ze stroked his forehead: Brother Ayan really can't help you! Just now, you are very clever, how can you be stupid in the blink of an eye?!

Rong Yan shook her head again and again, and saluted the nearest gray-bearded official: "May I ask my lord, do you have a daughter in your family?" ”

The adult was inexplicably asked, but seeing that the saint did not stop him, and Rong Guogong's eyes floated over from time to time, he could only answer truthfully: "There are two daughters in this official's family. ”

Rong Yan was delighted: "Just right!" I want to ask adults a question, if the little lady of the adult family is beaten by her husband on the street after getting married, and she wants to rob her own dowry and go to the gambling house, and meet someone else to take care of it, take the little lady of the adult family away for one night, and delay the medical consultation, will the adult be grateful to the benefactor who saved your daughter? ”

Chen Yushi was crazy: "You obviously kidnapped people, but you still have to reverse black and white prejudices and act bravely!" ”

Rong Yan ignored it and just stared at the adult.

The adult thought for a moment, and then gave an answer in an instant: "This official is naturally grateful!" He added: "But this kind of beastly thing, my virtuous son-in-law can't do it!" ”

Rong Yan clapped her hands and applauded: "That's good!" The noble son-in-law of the adult family can't do this kind of thing, but the son of Chen Yushi's family can do it, it is really a tear of sympathy for the father and mother of Shen Xiaoniang's family! How did you promise your daughter to this kind of person in a daze? I didn't even know that my daughter was beaten half to death on the street! ”

"You talk nonsense! How can my eldest man be the kind of person you said," Chen Yushi was furious.

Unfortunately, there are people who are angrier than him. An official stood out from the queue and bowed his hand to Rong Yan: "Dare to ask the county lord, my sister was really beaten by her husband on the street?" ”

Rong Yan looked him up and down, and Chu Junyue next to her immediately kindly explained her confusion: "Lady, this is the father of Shen Niangzi." ”

"Lord Shen's eyes are really bad!" Rong Yan's words are equivalent to affirming what Fang just said.

Shen Gongzhi's eyes immediately became angry, and there was a possibility that he would roll up his sleeves and fight with Chen Yushi in the court. Many officials who were already hungry and weak lifted their spirits and said in their hearts: Here we are again, and we are going to fight again! Although I am very hungry, I can see such a wonderful fight, and it is worth it to be hungry today!

As a witness at the scene, Rong Yan hurriedly stopped him: "Lord Shen, don't do it first, and when you see Little Lady Shen, it's not too late to do it again." Besides, the father has never paid the debt to the son, but I have never heard of the son paying the debt to the father. It's also Chen Dalang who wants to beat him, not Lord Chen, who taught this kind of bear child! ”

Her words were full of irony, and now Chen Yushi has to be made by the couple of them, and I don't know what color on his face is in line with the mood at the moment.

Xiao Ze immediately announced that the Shen clan had entered the hall.

There was a little eunuch who led Shen Niangzi into the hall, and after she came in, she first kowtowed to Xiao Ze who was seated, and her voice was soft and deferential, but when Xiao Ze raised her head, everyone was still taken aback.

It stands to reason that such a soft and beautiful voice should be matched with a delicate face, but the little lady in front of her has black eye sockets, broken lips, and a swollen face, which really can't be described as delicate.

The place where she knelt was just in the middle and facing back, it was three steps away from Rong Yan and Chu Junyue, as soon as Lord Shen turned around, he saw his daughter's situation, and immediately lost his voice: "Ah Wan-"

Shen Niangzi was ignorant before she came, she only knew that someone in the palace announced it, but she didn't know that she could see her father in the palace, and when she heard the familiar voice, she immediately followed the sound to see, and her eyes burst into tears at this look, and she hurriedly covered her face with her sleeves, and whimpered: "Daddy......" But he didn't want Lord Shen to see her embarrassed appearance again.

Lord Shen still didn't believe it, stepped to his daughter's side in two steps, pulled down her sleeve, saw her burst into tears, and couldn't help asking: "Is it really Chen Dalang who beat you?" Seriously? ”

Shen Niangzi only shook her head with tears: "Daddy, I only complain about my hard life......"

When Chen Yushi saw his daughter-in-law's face, he was immediately dumbfounded.

Thinking back to his son talking about his daughter-in-law, but there was a squeak, and I am afraid that there are all kinds of untruths, but when he heard that it was the lord of Huifu, he thought of slapping Rong Guogong and General Chu in the face, and it was his own son who said it himself, where is the need to check more?

He didn't know that Mrs. Chen had already complained about her daughter-in-law for three years of marriage, so she knew that her son often misbehaved and occasionally did something to her daughter-in-law, but Shen Niangzi had a soft temperament and endured it a lot, so she pretended not to know, and was happy to turn a blind eye. also has to control her daughter-in-law from time to time, beat her, and prevent her from returning to her parents' house often, so although Shen Niangzi is only eighteen years old now, she is already a little depressed.

Chen Yushi was outside, and Mrs. Chen deliberately concealed her son's misbehavior, she became obsessed with gambling in the past two years, and often went to the casino for recreation, Mrs. Chen blamed all this on Shen Niangzi's head, only that after she got married, she not only couldn't hold her husband, but also forced her husband to become addicted to drugs.

Only today, when Rong Yan revealed the truth above the court, did he know.

At first, he still refused to believe it, but it was not until Shen Niangzi entered the hall, saw her daughter-in-law's face, and interrogated her today, that he believed it a little.

Shen Niangzi had no choice but to tell the reason for the beating.

It turned out that Chen Dalang had been addicted to gambling for a long time, and he just filled most of her dowry into the gambling house, but yesterday he took Shen Niangzi out, and when he got outside, he asked her for a pair of white jade bracelets she carried. Originally, Shen Niangzi always regarded the dowry as a dead thing, and she was begged for it on weekdays, but if she refused, she would always be beaten and angry, so she endured it and took it with him most of the time. But this pair of jade bracelets was passed down by Mrs. Shen's mother, and when Mrs. Shen got married, Mrs. Shen passed it on to her, which was of extraordinary significance.

Since Chen Dalang started gambling, Shen Niangzi was always afraid that this bracelet would not be able to be kept, so she carried it more closely, and only begged him softly, always leaving herself a decent jewelry to go out.

I don't know what Chen Dalang was crazy about yesterday, I have to ask for this pair of bracelets, Shen Niangzi, who has been soft for three years after getting married, refused to give this pair of bracelets yesterday, Chen Dalang started in the carriage, until Shen Niangzi rolled down from the carriage, and happened to be bumped into by Rong Yan passing by......

Sometimes it's just that coincidental.

If you bump into someone else, you may not be willing to take care of the private affairs of other people's husbands and wives. However, Chen Dalang and Shen Niangzi bumped into Rong Yan yesterday, and she recently paid more attention to the quality of married women in the capital. was probably stimulated by Lin Biyue's married life, and saw the married woman who was beaten on the street, which aroused a little kindness in his heart.

Her status is completely different now, just a small helping hand can benefit others, and in line with the good wish of accumulating blessings for Chu Xiaolang, she has reached out to unfortunate married women one after another.

This help came to the court, but it was unexpected.

"Holy Lord, the people are harmonious with their husbands and wives, which is conducive to the stability of the country. The daughter's family is married to a wife, waiting for her husband to be filial to her in-laws, and when she meets a bastard husband, she can only cry alone when she is beaten, how pitiful? ! Seeing Xiao Ze on the throne agreeing, Rong Yan then faced the military generals of Wenchen again, and said in an excited voice: "I just want to ask all the adults in the hall, who doesn't have a daughter?" Who doesn't know how to raise children and marry wives? When Daddy raised his daughter like a jewel, married into her in-law's family and was beaten like this, wouldn't you feel distressed? If you marry someone else's daughter, you want your daughter-in-law to be filial and take care of the housework, but you also have to be beaten and angry, and say something unpleasant, what's so good about marrying? ”

Her gaze slid over her faces, Su Gongzhi was both angry and distressed today, and she felt empathy when she heard this, and she couldn't wait for the old tears to reward the county lord of Huifu. However, there are still some officials who don't know what she said these words for, but they also feel that her words are very reasonable, but they think that what is the daughter's family doing if she doesn't marry? Isn't the daughter's family born to marry and have children, pass on the ancestry, and run the backyard? When I met a bastard like Chen Dalang, I don't know if I want to blame my father and mother for their bad vision and let their daughter go to the wrong family, or blame this daughter's bad life.

The huge Golden Palace, above the court, the military generals couldn't help but whisper, those who have daughters in the family will inevitably think that if it is their daughter's turn to do this, they will probably be in the same mood as Su Gong today. There are also women who marry women, and they will inevitably be glad that the family education is very strict, and they have not raised a son like Chen Dalang.

Thinking about it like this, I couldn't help but put my eyes on Chen Yushi.

-- This person has made a typical negative teaching today.

taught a son who couldn't make it a weapon, but let himself show his face in the court, and wanted to slap other people's ears and fan his own face, it was really a loud slap, and there was still an echo!

On the contrary, the lord of Huifu County solemnly knelt down in front of Xiao Ze in court, and said with slight pity: "Holy Lord, you are the lord of all peoples, and the officials of the people, regardless of whether they are men or women, are all people, if you encounter a husband who beats his wife's room, how should you deal with it?" Should justice be done to the woman who was beaten? ”

Before Xiao Ze could speak, Su Gongzhi had already pulled Su Niangzi to take the lead and knelt down: "Please ask the saint to cut off my Su family's daughter and Chen Jia'er's reconciliation!" If my son continues to live in the Chen family, I'm afraid this little life will be gone! ”

This is true.

Chen Yushi used to talk about his mouth, but now he is like a gourd with a sawed mouth. Not only did Su Gongzhi ask his daughter to reconcile with his son, but after that, his eldest man wanted to find a daughter-in-law of the same age in the circle of officials in Shangjing, and he probably had no hope.

- Who is willing to give their own daughter to their in-laws?

Unless the daughter is not biological.

Even if there is a petty official who wants to cling to him and asks him to marry his daughter, I am afraid that he will also be ridiculed by his colleagues!

This is like spreading out the affairs of the Chen family's house in broad daylight to others, the ugliness of the family cannot be publicized, he is completely faceless in the court today, how can he have a position to picket colleagues in the future?

Chen Yushi was disheartened and wanted to resign from his official position in court. It's just that if you mention this matter now, you will be even more shameless, so you can only wait for this matter to stop for a while before making plans.

Xiao Ze saw that Su Gongzhi had a firm attitude, and asked Chen Yushi again, only to say that the two families had a marriage relationship at the beginning, and now if they want to reconcile, they must agree to the consent of the two adults. Although he did it fairly on the surface, he didn't know how to be happy in the dark: in his life, he could see the sanctimonious Chen Yushi sinking into the sand, asserting that he was very happy.

So far, what else does Chen Yushi have to say?

Xiao Ze was divorced in court, so that Su Gongzhi took his daughter home, and the Chen family returned all the dowries of Su's daughter.

The lawsuit between Su and Chen was broken, but Rong Yan was still kneeling in the court.

She obviously had something to say, but she was robbed by Su Gongzhi, and a good play that had been rehearsed on the way when she came was intercepted in the middle, and she was inevitably a little unhappy, and when Xiao Ze looked down and saw that she was still kneeling, a smile flashed in her eyes, and she couldn't help asking: "Hui Fuke still has something to say?" ”

Now it was finally her turn.

Except for a few officials in the hall, the rest of the officials couldn't help but wail in their hearts: If you are starving, you will not disperse to eat!

Rong Yan didn't delay any longer, and said busily: "Sister Chen recently bumped into many women who were beaten violently and were homeless, so she took them in and asked a doctor for medicine, but I felt that they were very pitiful. The women did not want to go home, but the marriage contract was not broken, and they were very afraid that their husbands would come to them. Therefore, the courtier sister wanted to seek divine grace, and wanted to open a Salesian bureau to take in these poor women and give them a bite to eat. If a woman who has entered the Salesian Bureau wants to go back to her original husband's house or not, the marriage contract does not count, it only depends on the woman's wishes, and the original husband's family cannot be forced to do so. I only ask the Holy Chrysostom to leave a place of refuge for these poor women! ”

It turned out that the atmosphere in front of her was ruined by Su Gongzhi, and she said it all at the moment, and there was nothing more to say, she could only raise her head and wink at Xiao Ze, trying to make him deal with the matter. As long as he responds, he will not dare to come to the door after that.

The strength of the Chu family's guards is naturally not low, but it shouldn't be wasted on it, every woman who can't be taken in in the future will have a personal bodyguard behind her, right?

In order for them to be able to stand in society, an unrestricted identity is the greatest guarantee.

The hungry ministers all looked at Xiao Ze with earnest eyes, and Su Gongzhi even stood up and said, "The minister seconded the proposal!" ”

When the officials on the side heard this, they also stood up and seconded several times. Originally, it was just a request from Rong Yan, but it was like a major event in the court, and many courtiers began to vote.

If you don't second, I'm afraid everyone will faint from hunger in the court.

It's just the temporary kindness of the Lord of Huifu, and it doesn't affect the national policy, so what's there to consider?

The ministers thought so, but they didn't know that the Salesian Bureau was the first step to improve the status of women in Daliang, and since then, a group of capable women have gradually emerged, following behind the lord of Fuhui, and even affecting the thoughts of the women in the entire Daliang boudoir, which is a later story.

Later people traced back to the original intention of the Lord of Huifu to establish the Salesian Bureau, and they all set their eyes on Beidi, and could only blame Beidi for the equality of women's status with men, so that the Lord of Huifu County was a good Liang aristocratic woman, who should have been in the backyard with three virtues and four virtues, husband and children, but in the end, because of the influence of Beidi's life for several years, went to society.

Is...... What a big tumor!

Since then, all the gentlemen of the Great Liang have been unable to suppress their daughters-in-law, or have been suppressed by their daughters-in-law, all of them have thought so.

It's a pity that no one could have such a vision at that time, and the new emperor Xiao Ze personally made the decision, and the women taken in by the Salesian Bureau after that were free to choose their lives. And when the lord of Huifu asked him to write the imperial book, he agreed without hesitation. also promised that the palace workshop would personally make the plaque of the Salesian Bureau, and send it to Rong Yan when he turned around.

A turmoil gradually subsided, the lengthy court meeting finally dispersed, and the ministers of the court and the central government scattered, first got into their own carriage parked outside the palace, held the dim sum box and nibbled violently, poured a stomach of tea, and then considered going home or going to the government office.

The county lord of Huifu was directly carried home by Chu Sanlang, and Su Gongzhi didn't have time to take his daughter to thank him, so he could only block Rong Guogong at the gate of the palace, and thanked him again and again.

Rong Guogong was humble, and smiled slightly: "People are of the same mind, Master Su doesn't have to be polite!" ”

The author has something to say: I wrote it overnight...... That's all it takes. Okay, I'm going to sleep at dawn, good morning everyone.
