Chapter 548: Knife Killing
Qin Zhao said this, but the ministers present still looked at each other, no one dared to be the first person, Qin Zhao only felt a little headache at this time, he was really not an autocratic emperor, naturally he achieved the position above 10,000 people, naturally he would have some rights of his own, but he was not a person who liked to get angry casually, why were these ministers always so afraid of him.
Qin Zhao couldn't laugh or cry, but he didn't know that it was because Qin Zhao's appearance was too majestic, and he looked like a very domineering monarch, and it was very normal for the ministers below to feel afraid of him.
"Lord Song, do you think there is anything wrong with implementing the monogamy system?"
Qin Zhao had no choice but to take Lord Song to operate again, but the expression on Song Qingping's face was still calm.
"Back to the emperor, the minister feels that the system of monogamy is novel and very good, as the emperor said, since he is an official, he is a parent official, and what he does is to seek the people, just to seek the common people in the world."
Song Qingping gushed endlessly, the ministers present were angry and did not dare to breathe at this time, and they all observed Qin Zhao's expression at this time, and they did not correctly estimate the thoughts in Qin Zhao's heart, what was it?
Many of the ministers present had three wives and four concubines, and they didn't dare to speak at this moment, for fear that Qin Zhao would use him to open the knife.
"It's just that there are three wives and four concubines for men from ancient times to the present, and women pay attention to three from four virtues, which seems to have been deeply rooted, and high-ranking officials and nobles often have several concubines, and the poor people can marry wives and have moved the world, so the number of women in this world is also limited, and for many people, it is indeed very unfair."
Song Qingping's words caused many ministers present to nod one after another, it is true that many ministers have three wives and four concubines, and even seven or eight concubines are also common.
But some of these poor families in the people can't even marry a wife for a lifetime, Qin Zhao couldn't help but nod when he heard Song Qingping's words, it was precisely because of this that he wanted to implement the monogamy system.
Originally, there was half a possibility that a newborn would be born as a male or female, but now there are many people in this world who do not want baby girls at all, and many newborn baby girls have been abandoned or even killed before they grow up.
"In addition, it was originally clarified that it should be a matter of mutual affection, but due to the asymmetry of power, there are many dignitaries, you rely on your rights and money, you have to marry some young and beautiful women, this journey is tantamount to robber trading, and there are many women, because of the order of their parents, the words of the matchmaker, can only marry a rich family as a concubine, and can not marry their lover, and suicide is not uncommon."
Song Qingping stood on top of the hall and said this endlessly, causing many ministers below to nod their heads in agreement, Qin Zhao also couldn't stop nodding, only those adults who had several concubines didn't dare to say a word at this time, for fear that the emperor would name him in the next second.
"Therefore, the minister thinks that the new monogamy policy you have implemented is very correct, and it is also a very fair and just thing, if anyone is unwilling to accept it, it is just a selfish person."
Song Qingping finally finished his opinion, Qin Zhao nodded and motioned for Song Qingping to return to the team, what Song Qingping expressed was basically his idea of wanting to implement the new policy, monogamy, if it is implemented, the number of female babies killed in the world should be greatly reduced, right?
"My thoughts are consistent with Lord Song's, and it is precisely because of this that I will dismiss the harem, leaving only the queen, one person and one because I and the queen Qin Se sang together, the queen is an indispensable existence for me, and the second is because of the reason that Lord Song said, the implementation of the monogamous system is only a suggestion, and it is not mandatory."
"The emperor is wise!"
The ministers below knelt down and said to Qin Zhao Qin Zhao, but the troubles in his heart were not less when he saw this appearance, he saw that some people in the court couldn't help but tremble, Qin Zhao knew that these trembling people had already taken several concubines.
"Master Jiang, why don't you tell us what you think about the new policy?"
At this time, Qin Zhao suddenly pointed out that Lord Jiang asked Lord Jiang to express his opinion, Lord Jiang was already very scared at this time, and when he heard Qin Zhao's words, he was even more frightened and immediately knelt down, the emperor has the intention to make things difficult for him, but there are five concubines and one wife in his house.
"Back to ...... Back to the emperor, the minister also felt that Lord Song's statement was very reasonable, and Chen returned to the mansion today and immediately sent all the five concubines to the nunnery......"
Lord Jiang was so scared that he was sweating profusely at this time, the emperor was obviously deliberately embarrassing him, just because Qin Zhao ordered him to search for the bandits, and he returned in vain, so Qin Zhao deliberately asked him to promise to send all the five concubines away in front of all the ministers.
Lord Jiang's heart is dripping blood, these five concubines have spent a lot of money to get back, all of them are young and beautiful, he likes it very much, only his wife is the order of his parents, the wife who was ordered by his mother to marry is now already a broken flower and a willow, and the old man is yellow, he looks at his heart full of unhappiness, but now it is good, the emperor named him in front of all the ministers, even if he is unwilling, he has no choice but to go back and send these five concubines away.
When Qin Zhao heard Lord Jiang's words, he felt a little proud in his heart, just as Master Jiang had guessed, he knew that Lord Jiang was sent by him to rectify the mountains and forests around the capital, and Lord Jiang was obviously not doing his best, or he was making other small calculations.
Therefore, Qin Zhao deliberately asked Lord Jiang to express his thoughts in front of these ministers, forcing Lord Jiang to open his mouth and send these five concubines away, Qin Zhao raised his eyebrows and expressed his surprise.
"So very good, so very good, Lord Jiang is open-minded and able to actively respond to my new policy, and he is really my right-hand man, but I have a suggestion, these five concubines are still young women no matter how they say it, Lord Jiang might as well directly give them some entanglement and let them go back to their hometown, from now on they will marry freely, Lord Jiang, you see how I suggest!"
Qin Zhao opened his mouth as if he was joking, and as if he was asking Lord Jiang's opinion, how could he not accept this Son of Heaven's suggestion?
Lord Jiang hurriedly knelt on the ground at this time, the emperor asked him to dismiss his five beloved concubines, and he could only agree with tears, and even thanked the emperor for his gratitude, which was really humiliating in his heart.
"The emperor is wise, the minister has thanked the emperor for his suggestion, and he will start to handle this matter immediately after he returns!"
The adult held back the grievances in his heart, and returned to the team after saying this, his heart was dripping blood, the most advanced concubine was only married back last month, it was a beautiful girl, sweet and well-behaved, this is a concubine he loves very much.
But now that the emperor has already opened his mouth to suggest that this is almost an order, how can he not obey it, he is really angry, so it strengthens Lord Jiang's idea of standing on the side of the queen mother, and when he returns to the palace in the future, he will definitely get all his concubines back.
