Chapter 558: The Queen is Angry, the Great King Protects (First Update)
Soon, Yuan Xi in Changyi after discussing with Yuan Ping, Zhuge Liang, Sima Yi, Tian Yu, Feng Ji, etc., agreed to the country name of Daxi, this country name Yuan Xi was a little unaccustomed to at first, but after thinking about it, I felt that the country name was actually a habit and a cultural convergence, just like the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties in the previous life, after a hundred years, the word Xi will also become a brilliant word.
And at a time when the center was busy with matters such as the founding of Daxi, the imperial capital, and the transfer of officials to recover the states, stabilize people's livelihood, and even reward after the war.
Located in the harem, Zhen Mi, the queen of Daxi who will soon want to be the mother of the world, suddenly ordered directly to let Tian Feng, the left minister, Li Ru, the right minister, Han Yan, Shangshuling, and Xu Miao, the secretary of the Public Procuratorate Department, all come to see him.
In the harem, in the Yong'an Palace, wearing a phoenix crown, dressed in gorgeous clothes, skin like snow, although she gave birth to a child, Zhen Mi, who is still beautiful and incomprehensible, sits on the main seat, noble and generous, with the majesty of the founding queen of Daxi.
"The mourning family knows that the four adults are very busy, but there are some things that the mourning family doesn't say a few words, I'm really sorry for the four big words of the mother's world," Zhen Mi said solemnly.
"Queen, what happened" Tian Feng said with some curiosity, it seems that Shang Shutai has not received anything important during this time.
"Two days ago, the mourning family went to see their uncle, and when they came back, they found an old woman crying on the road, and the mourning family was curious for a while, so they asked people to inquire," Zhen Mi frowned when she said this.
"Could it be that this old woman has any grievances" Xu Miao immediately said, at present, the people's livelihood and public security in various places have been handed over to the Ministry of Public Procuratorate, and the yamen at all levels have become administrative departments, and they are not responsible for unjust, false and wrongful cases, people's disputes and other issues, and they are wholeheartedly developing agriculture and commerce and prospering Daxi.
"The old woman has a thirteen-year-old daughter, who is really the age of the rising sun, but she committed suicide by jumping into a well just four days ago," Zhen Mi said regretfully.
Xu Miao's face sank, and he immediately hugged his fists and said: "It was the minister's negligence, and the minister immediately arranged for someone to thoroughly investigate the case."
"Xu Shangshu don't worry, the mourning family hasn't finished talking yet" Zhen Mi waved his hand lightly, and sighed: "The girl's death, not because of anything else, but because her father bought her to a rich businessman as a concubine, in the rich businessman's home, she was bullied and was forced to commit suicide by jumping into a well, what this palace wants to say is that although I Daxi has strict laws, there is very little protection for women's safety in this regard."
"The king said back then that women should marry at the age of sixteen, but it seems that you are too busy to care at all, and the following is not completely implemented."
When Zhen Mi said the back, there was already a hint of dissatisfaction in her tone.
Tian Feng and the others were taken aback, and Han Yan hurriedly spoke: "The queen's forgiveness is the fault of the minister."
"The mourning family is not about how much power women should be raised, but they should be protected as much as possible, thirteen years old! Too young," Zhen Mi said, shaking her head.
"The queen is at ease, the center will make arrangements immediately" Tian Feng hugged his fist.
"Okay, but this palace also wants to say something, this matter will definitely be checked by this palace personally, if it really doesn't work, then this palace will go to the king" Zhen Mi said firmly.
Hearing this, Tian Feng and the four of them immediately responded loudly.
Out of the Yong'an Palace, Tian Feng and the four of them breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's still the first time I've seen the queen angry," Han Yan said with a wry smile.
"The queen is a benevolent heart, this is seeking peace for the women of the world," Tian Feng sighed.
"But it's not easy to do! Since ancient times, in order to stabilize the harmony and stability of the family, the concubines of all dynasties and generations have no status, if they act rashly, how should the status of the wife be reflected, and how to distinguish the difference between the concubines, it is estimated that there will be a lot of movement" Xu Miao frowned.
"There is no need to improve their status, but their basic safety must be kept as much as possible, and it seems that only two laws need to be set," Li Ru smiled.
"Right phase, make it clear" Tian Feng immediately looked forward to it.
"First: All women under the age of sixteen are not allowed to marry, buy and sell, and those who violate them will be severely punished."
"Second: Regardless of gender, all cases involving human life shall be strictly investigated by the Public Prosecutor's Department, and if the death of the wife is found to have been killed by the master's family, they will all be imprisoned and will not be tolerated; If it is a concubine, after finding out that it is the cause of the master's family, it will be heavily fined money, and these two points must be distinguished" Li Ru said solemnly, if you want to be completely fair, it is impossible, otherwise the family will be restless, so the concubine must not disobey the wife at will, this is an iron law.
"Okay, this is good, this is killing three birds with one stone, that is, it maintains the status of the wife, and improves the safety of the concubine, and it can also increase the income of the treasury by a large amount," Han Yan immediately supported.
"Not only that, in this way, it also reflects the benevolence of the king and the queen, the world is composed of men and women, don't underestimate the wind on the pillow" Tian Feng also smiled.
"Haha, there is something in Zuo Xiang's words!" Li Ru blinked suddenly.
Tian Feng shook his head and said: "Although the king has many concubines, his love for the queen is indeed unique, which no one can compare, if this matter is not solved well, it is estimated that the queen will really find the king, and it is estimated that it will have a bad impact on the future."
After Li Ru and the three of them heard this, they immediately nodded clearly, the eldest son Yuan Mingnai is the most likely to inherit the throne, and Zhen Mi is the queen mother, if it is not handled well, I am afraid that there will be a settlement after the autumn.
"Then submit it to the king as soon as possible, it is estimated that the king will not object," Li Ru said with a smile.
"Good"
。。。。。。
A few days later, Yuan Xi received two new laws from Shang Shutai, and after reading them carefully, he asked Zhuge Liang in front of him, "Kong Ming, what do you think?" ”
"The queen is merciful, this is a move to collect the heart and reassure the people, and after Shang Shutai's caution about the law, as well as the use of words, the minister feels that it can be implemented completely, and it will not cause much impact, and the appropriate punishment can be, but killing privately, buying and selling concubines, it is necessary to give severe punishment, so as to build a prosperous, stable, and peaceful new dynasty" Zhuge Liang agreed.
Yuan Xi smiled and said: "A piece of benevolence, in exchange for a piece of people's heart, this is the lonely Mi'er"
Between the words, there is a sense of love and pity.
"The Wise King"
"This word, signed alone" Yuan Xi picked up the pen from the side and wrote four big characters on the piece: "Quasi-execution"
immediately handed over Zhuge Liang and said with a smile: "Send it back as soon as possible, if Mi'er gets angry, Lone will be afraid"
"Chen understands" Zhuge Liang couldn't help but show a smile.
"Oh! By the way, it will be Mi'er's birthday in a while, you prepare a gift for Gu and send it back" Yuan Xi suddenly remembered.
"King Yu, some time ago, among the materials seized by the ministers, there is a thousand-year-old jade, which is extremely rare, not only crystal clear, but also more precious at night" Zhuge Liang said immediately.
"Okay, that's it," Yuan Xi said with immediate satisfaction.
"No!"
At this time, Hu Niu'er walked in, hugged his fists and said: "Koji filial piety brings"
Yuan Xi's eyes froze, and a terrifying killing intent immediately burst out from his body, which surprised Zhuge Liang on the side.
"Get him in!" An icy and unusual voice suddenly sounded.
"No!"
