"Your Majesty, how can the days of ordinary people be used as the basis for the promulgation of decrees? Although the number of ordinary people is large, there are also many rich and noble families who take concubines, and if the decree is promulgated, causing those people to resent, I am afraid that they will provoke wars in the future....... Please think again, Your Majesty! ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, those ordinary people don't take concubines, not necessarily because they love their wives very much, some of them don't take concubines because they are poor....... If you have money one day, maybe you can pay a few! ”

Most of the ministers present had concubines, so they naturally stood on the side of disagreement.

Only a few ministers who acted well agreed with Lu Li's approach.

"Wechen thinks monogamy is feasible! In addition to the fact that the common people are mostly monogamous, this system is also conducive to maintaining stability! Alas, throughout the ages, there have been too many disputes caused by women, and it is inevitable that there will be huge expenses when there are more women, and all kinds of contradictions will arise. ”

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

On that day, the imperial study was fighting because of this matter, and both sides had their own opinions, and no one would let anyone!

In the end, it was Lu Li who stood up and persuaded him: "Ahem, I think what several Aiqing said is very reasonable, and every reason has a basis, but I still decided to issue a decree." ”

Immediately, some people wanted to dismiss Lu Li's idea on the grounds that those nobles would disagree.

Unexpectedly, Lu Li had already thought of a rhetoric.

"Shen Aiqing is right, the promulgation of this decree will definitely cause dissatisfaction among those nobles, they are used to a good life, accustomed to a group of wives and concubines, but I have a way. I will lead by example, I will never accept a concubine, as long as there is only one queen, so that they naturally have no reason to object. ”

As soon as Lu Li's words fell, the imperial study fell into a strange silence.

His idea is correct, after all, the emperor is the person with the highest status in Jiang State, and even the dignified monarch only marries one wife in accordance with the law, so what else do the nobles have to say? Could it be that their status is greater than that of the emperor? In the future, even if they have any dissatisfaction in their hearts, they will not have a chance to raise it, unless one day Lu Li violates the rules and accepts a concubine!

The ministers had different expressions on their faces, but everyone had a kind of admiration for Lu Li.

The infatuated monarch who is not tempted by beauty and always has the queen alone in his heart is indeed worthy of their admiration.

The matter of the promulgation of the decree was thus decided, and the time passed for another five days, and after the specific content of the decree was arranged, Lu Li chose a good day to promulgate the decree.

As the ministers expected, the ordinary people did not react to this kind of decree at all, and they did not have the money to take concubines, and there would always be only one woman by their side, and this decree had little impact on them now. But it's different for the nobles, especially those gentlemen, who can't wait to rush to the palace to confront Lu Li!

He likes the queen, and he doesn't want to accept concubines, but he wants to pull them in! Isn't monogamy going to be painful in the future?

The nobles had a lot of complaints, but no one dared to put their words on the surface, because Lu Li's decree was supported by many people, but the emperor gave them dozens of heads, and they didn't dare to do it against the emperor face to face!

After the decree was promulgated, some people were happy and some were worried, and some people were moved, and the person who was moved was naturally the queen of the dynasty, An Xiabai, who learned that Lu Li sat to such a point for herself, she was so happy that she hugged someone and kissed her, and for several days, An Xiabai had a very gentle smile on her face, and this attitude did not change even in the face of the flatness she didn't like very much.

"I don't know why Lord Biandu asked to see this palace today?"

Isn't he the terrible devil in Biandu's heart? Doesn't Flatness always want to stay away from oneself? Why do you want to see you today?

I saw Bian Du respectfully send a gift list.

An Xia Bai himself was stunned, it is a good thing to have a gift hand, but when the person who gives the gift becomes Biandu, this good thing becomes a big thing that people can't understand, because Biandu can't give things to people for no reason, and every time he gives a gift, he is jealous, after all, he is a person who loves money like life........

An Xiabai held the gift list, and raised his eyebrows slightly: "I don't know why Lord Biandu sent this gift list?" ”

"Here's the thing," Bian Du coughed lightly, and said slowly.

At the end of the words, An Xiabai showed an expression of sudden realization: "I see, please go back first, and the requested things will naturally be done in the palace." However, Lord Biandu also asked me to convey a word to the palace, persuading that one die early, the relationship between them is not much different from the relationship between the palace and His Majesty, Pu Wei is like silk, and the rock is not transferred is the best poem to describe this feeling, if you don't want to be hurt, it is best to get out as soon as possible. ”

Bian Du nodded with a complicated expression: "Weichen will definitely convey it." ”

As soon as Bian Du left Kunning Palace on the front foot, Lu Li came to Kunning Palace to find An Xiabai on the back foot, and saw her smile with a very happy look, Lu Li felt quite strange in his heart: "What good things happened to the queen today, do you want to tell me?" ”

An Xiabai smiled and took out the gift list and put it in front of Lu Li.

Lu Li knew what Biandu had done, so he naturally regarded the gift list as Biandu's handwriting, he thought that An Xiabai knocked Biandu again, so he smiled and said, "The queen did a good job." ”

At this time, Bian Du didn't know how Lu Li and An Xiabai talked about himself in Kunning Palace, he was now only thinking about how to explain to that person, and when he returned to his residence, Bian Du couldn't help but muttered in his heart: "It's so pitiful, so old, it's hard to fall in love with a girl, but the person is married, and the relationship is so good, I don't even have a chance to dig the wall, if I were Feng Ge, I wouldn't have the face to continue to live in this world......."

A simple thing, he was talked about by Bian Du from night to morning, and the next morning, he entered the palace early to ask to see An Xiabai.

This time he didn't see An Xiabai's face again, but he got what he wanted, that is, the letter from Ruqing and Shen Ya's relationship development, Bian Du came to the palace yesterday to give An Xiabai a gift, it was because of this incident that he was entrusted by someone.

What Bian Du never expected was that on the way out, he would meet Lu Li.

"Meet Your Majesty 1"

Lu Li nodded, and the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were a little more confused: "Lord Biandu came to see the queen again today?" ”

"Weichen has something in Kunning Palace, so he came here to pick it up."

Lu Li responded perfunctorily, waved his hand and let Bian Du go, looking at Bian Du's back, and then looking at the quiet Kunning Palace, Lu Li fell into a burst of confusion.

Is it true that Bian Du came to Kunning Palace specifically just to get one thing? But it's too right to think about it, as an envoy of the Liang State, there are many people around Bian Du who can be summoned, even if he really has something left in Anxiabai's Kunning Palace, it is not difficult to send someone to get it, why do you want to go in person?

Because Lu Li's feelings for An Xiabai are very deep, it is naturally easy to think that others have that kind of mind for An Xiabai!

Bian Du specially came to Kunning Palace to get things, didn't he have a heart for An Xiabai, so he came to Kunning Palace three times and twice to talk to An Xiabai?

Thinking of this, Lu Li's heart chilled.

No, I can't continue to think about it like this, if I continue to make up for it like this, my mood will definitely be affected! Standing outside and thinking about it, it is better to go directly to Kunning Palace and ask An Xiabai for clarification!

Lu Li, who overturned the vinegar jar, decisively walked into the gate of Kunning Palace.

It just so happened that Fanghua happened to come out of An Xiabai's room, and when she saw Lu Liming standing in the courtyard with a hesitant face, Fanghua looked puzzled: "Why did Your Majesty come here at this point, the queen hasn't woken up yet." ”

An Xiabai hasn't woken up yet, doesn't it mean that Bian Du didn't see An Xiabai at all just now?

Thinking of this, Lu Li was in a much better mood.

"I saw the envoy of the Liang State when I came over just now, why did he come to Kunning Palace to meet the queen? The queen didn't wake up, so he ........"

"Lord Biandu came to Kunning Palace to pick up things, originally the queen sent the slave maid to send the letter to Lord Biandu's residence, but I don't know why, Lord Biandu came directly, so the slave maid took it upon herself to give him the letter."

Lu Li's heart tightened again: "What letter?" ”

"This slave doesn't know, the letter was written by the queen mother herself last night, and the queen mother did not mention the content of the letter."

Lu Li nodded with a complicated expression and walked quickly into An Xiabai's room.

His queen was still asleep.

An Xiabai buried her whole body in the quilt, only showing a face, Lu Li was afraid of waking her up, and even her breathing was much lighter. Because he had something on his mind, when he looked at An Xiabai, his brows were tightly furrowed, and this demeanor lasted until An Xiabai woke up in a daze.

The beauty who had just woken up stretched out her hand to smooth the furrow between Lu Li's eyebrows, and asked with a slight smile: "Who is it that made our Emperor Majesty feel bad again?" ”

When he spoke to An Xiabai, the expression on Lu Li's face became much gentler.

"When I came today, I met Biandu outside your palace gate, and Biandu has always forgotten your Kunning Palace for the past two days, could it be that he is tempted by the queen?"

Hearing Lu Li's question, An Xiabai seemed to be stunned, and then smiled shallowly.

"It's impossible."

"What do you mean by that?"

An Xiabai took Lu Li's hand and analyzed it carefully: "In the eyes of Bian Du, I am a devil, not only extorting money from him three times and twice, but also repeatedly embarrassing him. “

"It's also a fact that Bian Du has been running to Kunning Palace for the past two days, if it's not heartbeat, why is it so diligent......."

An Xiabai smiled again: "It is indeed a fact that Bian Du recently ran in Wang Kunning Palace, but things are not what His Majesty thinks, and he is also entrusted by others." There is a general named Feng Ge on the border who is attracted to Ruqing, and he has ignored the existence of Shen Ya three times and twice to pursue Ruqing, Your Majesty should also know, right? ”

Lu Li responded: "I've heard of some." ”
