"Oh? Am I wrong? So what do you mean I said wrong? ”

Seeing Li Yan encouraging him, Wang Lun arched his hand and said: "If my brother doesn't accept this Miss Liu as his wife and concubine, then my brother is unjust, unfilial, and ignorant of the overall situation!" ”

"Uh......"

Li Yan was stunned and said: "Why am I unrighteous, unfilial, and disregarding the overall situation?" ”

Wang Lun said: "Let's talk about injustice first, this Miss Liu was given to my brother by Du Qian's brothers, Deng Fei's brothers, Zhu Fu's brothers, and Yang Lin's brothers, among them, the Yang Lin brothers gave Miss Liu to their brother as a meeting gift, if my brother didn't accept it, wouldn't he live up to the kindness of Du Qian's brothers, Deng Fei's brothers, and Zhu Fu's brothers, and the Du Qian brothers, Deng Fei's brothers, and Zhu Fu's brothers to send Yang Lin brothers down the mountain?" ”

"This ......"

Thinking about it, it's really what Wang Lun said, compared with not accepting Liu Huiniang, Du Qian, Deng Fei, Zhu Fu, and Yang Lin naturally want Li Yan to accept Liu Huiniang, especially Yang Lin who just went up the mountain - if Li Yan accepts Liu Huiniang, they will definitely be closer to Li Yan, after all, in that way, the two sides will have Liu Huiniang's bond.

Of course, it is not enough to say that the poplar forest is driven down the mountain, but if it is said that it hinders the poplar forest from integrating into Shuibo Liangshan, it is true.

Wang Lun said again: "Let's talk about unfilial piety, may I ask my brother how expensive Geng is this year?" ”

Li Yan hesitated for a moment, and then replied truthfully: "It's about to be fifty out of twenty." ”

Now there is no need to hide his age, because Li Yanshui's position as the lord of Liangshan will not be shaken because of his young age, on the contrary, this can also show that Li Yannian is in the prime of life and has abundant capital.

Hearing Li Yan's real age, all the heroes were stunned!

Although the heroes have long known that Li Yan is not too old, they deduced from Li Yan's way of dealing with people and things that Li Yan must be thirty, and at the worst, he must be twenty-seven or eight, but he is just more tender.

What Cheng thought, Li Yan is not yet twenty-five years old!

Even Liu Huiniang was surprised!

Liu Huiniang said secretly: "I didn't expect this person to be twenty-five years old!" ”

Wang Lun restrained his mind for a moment and said: "Twenty-five is not small, as the saying goes, there are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is the largest, my brother is already twenty-five this year, and he still doesn't marry a wife and have children, isn't it unfilial?" ”

This article is actually a bit far-fetched.

Rich families don't have to sell fertile land, there are thousands of bells in the book;

There is no need to erect high beams for the house, and there is a golden house in the book;

Don't hate unscrupulous matchmakers when marrying a wife, there is Yan Ruyu in the book;

Don't hate to go out, there are many cars and horses in the book;

The boy wants to fulfill his life's aspirations, and the six classics are read in front of the window.

This poem by Song Zhenzong is clearly written, and the most promising people in the Song Dynasty are scholars.

In order to recruit talents, the Song Dynasty let three people take a position, of course, everyone was assigned a light task, and life was comfortable, in addition they had a high salary, but there was no strict supervision and punishment system, in fact, the national policy of the Song Dynasty also connived at the corruption of officials, that is, the so-called "punishment is not a doctor", that is, officials who violate the law will not be punished too much, so the title of the gold list has become the goal of many people's lives.

In order to concentrate on gaining fame, men put marriage aside first, because as long as they are admitted, they will have everything.

The imperial examination is always extremely intense, after all, only a small number of people can be admitted, and most people are difficult to pass at the age of thirty or forty.

Because men are busy with exams, they have become what later generations called leftover men, and some people already have white hair when they marry wives, so many husbands in the Song Dynasty are one or twenty years older than their wives.

According to Chen Shidao's "Houshan Poems", there was a Hangzhou Juzi who was over 70 years old at the time, and his friends humorously congratulated:

It should be a poor son sometimes, and life is rare for seventy years.

Now I feel that I am noble, and I will be slandered without lotus clothes.

This seventy-year-old son is not the only one, in the time of Song Gaozong, there was a seventy-three-year-old named Chen Xiu who only entered the middle school, and he was also "not married". Although he has already been lifted, at the age of seventy-three, how can he still have the intention of getting married. Look at your white beard and sigh.

However, this person has been tested for a lifetime, and the article is well written. Song Gaozong recognized his article very much, and after learning that he was so down, Song Gaozong "ordered the insider Shi to marry him, and he Chinese New Year's Eve was very generous and generous." ”。 It was rumored to be a "good story" for a while, and some good people joked: If the newcomer asks how old is Lang? Answer: Fifty years ago, twenty-three.

When Sima Guang talked about the age of marriage, he once said: "Men are only thirty, and women are only twenty ears, and then it is a loss of time." ”

If we look at the standard that Sima Guang's man is thirty unmarried, and the woman is twenty unmarried, it is "leftover", two of the ten men in the Song Dynasty are "leftover men".

Therefore, it is normal for Li Yan, who is less than twenty-five years old, to marry without marrying.

Wang Lun didn't know that Li Yan was so young before, so he added this article.

Now that there is no turning back from the bow, Wang Lun can only stubbornly continue: "My brother has no brothers, sons and nephews, and my father died early, and the whole family relies on my brother to inherit the incense. ”

It's reluctant to say this, anyway, what Li Yan wants is just an excuse and steps, not to argue with Wang Lun, so naturally he can't argue with Wang Lun.

Li Yan took the initiative to say: "Then how can I ignore the overall situation?" ”

Wang Lun bowed to the ground and said, "Ask my brother for forgiveness!" ”

Li Yan said: "I will not blame you." ”

Wang Lun said: "Now I have three or four thousand people in Liangshanbo, and there are nineteen leaders, occupying these eight hundred miles of water, second only to Wang Qing in Huaixi, Tianhu in Hebei, and La, in Jiangnan, it can be regarded as a force, but there is an accident, our Liangshanbo is the headless snake, if we have no young master to support, it will fall apart in an instant, is my brother not marrying a wife and having children regardless of the overall situation?" ”

This is a bit unlucky, but it is indeed a problem, and it is a big problem - in the ancient imperial society, there were no heirs, it was a very, very serious matter, so serious that it would even affect the stability of a regime!

There are many, many examples of this in history!

Here's a famous example:

When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was the crown prince for nine years and the emperor for two years, he had no heirs, so the rumors that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty could not have children slowly spread.

This is a major event that hurts the country's foundation, and the problem is serious.

Many people began to have bad ideas, and Liu An, the king of Huainan, was one of them.

Liu An is the grandson of Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, and is a generation older than Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Liu Anxin thought: "Since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty will not be born, the competition for the throne will definitely be fierce after he drives it." Liu An was a great literati and thinker at that time, with a high social status and a good reputation, so he thought that he was the most suitable to be the emperor. So he laid out in advance, recruited troops, and waited for the day when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty died.

Once, Liu An made a pilgrimage to the capital from Huainan and met Tian Wei, the uncle of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, who also said: "If the emperor dies one day, the king will be the king." Liu An was very happy after hearing this, and rewarded Tian Wei with a large amount of money.

In fact, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was not yet eighteen years old at the time, and these people were really too worried, which can only show that they had the intention of rebellion, but this also shows how terrible it is that the emperor is infertile, which can completely become a reason for others to rebel.

Be!

Li Yan is only twenty-four years old this year, and he is still extremely young, but how can he not be younger than Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, who was less than eighteen years old at the time, right?

Moreover, who dares to guarantee that Li Yan will not have an accident?

Furthermore, heirs have to be cultivated slowly, not that they can succeed to the throne after birth.

Therefore, Li Yan can't refute this even if he wants to.

After being silent for a while, Li Yan looked at Wang Lun and asked the most critical question: "Then I don't want Liang Shanbo's discipline?" ”
