Chapter 47: Not listening

There is no need to look at the court on the day of marriage, but there are still many government affairs. Along the Han River and the Yi River, the war between Chu and Qin was unfolding, and countless messages were sent from the front to Da Sima every day. The Qin State fulfilled the intentions of the Chu army, and after a winter of preparation, the Yishui entering Badi was seriously blocked, forcing the Chu army to clear the blockage before entering Sichuan to fight.

The blockade of the shipping lanes of the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Aden by the overseas Red Ocean Fleet was effortless, and the real effort was to conquer the states that had been established because of spices. Their existence is said to date back more than a thousand years or more. In the Old Testament, Queen Sheba, who controlled the spice fields, asked King Solomon to test his wisdom and gave him a lot of gold, precious stones, and spices.

Xiong Jing is not familiar with this, and the only one that is somewhat familiar is the story of discerning his mother:

Two women came to Solomon with a baby, and they both claimed to be the mother of the child, and it was difficult for the people to tell the difference. King Solomon thought for a moment and said, "Then split the child in half." One woman nodded in agreement, while the other cried and said, "I don't want children anymore!" King Solomon immediately declared: "She is the true Mother!" ”

Zhibisi did not send people to the Yemeni region of the later generations to investigate on the spot, but he still received a lot of information about the frankincense state from the mouth of the Persian merchants, and this story was recorded as a piece of information.

Whether it is King Solomon or Queen Hiba, these are not things that the Great Sima Mansion considers. After last year's bad relations with Seleucus, trade profits are declining sharply. The state of Chu will inevitably launch a spice campaign, block the waterways, conquer the cities, and control the spice trade to obtain trade revenue, otherwise it will be difficult to maintain the wartime finances until next year, and perhaps the capital of the state of Chu will go bankrupt this winter.

"What's the news?" When he returned to the main bed, he saw Nao Xin who was already waiting in the Ming Hall, and Xiong Jing asked out loud.

"Tell the king, no news." Nao Xin replied that he would come here once a day to meet Xiong Jing.

"No news?" No news is not really no news, but there is nothing worth reporting.

"Yes, yes." Nao Xin again. After finishing it, he looked up and looked around, and said softly: "The minister who heard the south gate is even better." ”

"Oh." Xiong Jing replied in a low voice. Nao Xin was older than him, and he had traveled several times with him, and they were closer to each other than ordinary people. After Nao Xin reminded him, he retreated, Xiong Jingkue sat in the Ming Hall, and took the five daughters of Yingnan to the Beichen Palace to greet Concubine Zhao at lunchtime. He planned to go out of the city to Xiaoyi for a private meeting with Mi Xuan after greeting An, but he didn't expect Concubine Zhao to find out about this matter in person when he greeted An.

"The king is married, and he already has a wife and concubine in the palace, so he can no longer stay outside the palace in the future." Looking at her son's unhappy face, Concubine Zhao couldn't help but say even in front of Ying Nan and others.

"If you have government affairs, you can't stay in the palace." Xiong Jing's heart sank, and he paused for a moment before replying.

"Government affairs?" Concubine Zhao smiled. "Outside the palace, apart from the small town in the south of the city, what are the government affairs?"

"Xiaoyi is the town jointly built by the Great Sima Mansion and the Mi family, which is the latest type of city, which can be bombed by fire and artillery. National defense is a major matter of the country, and children must stay in Xiaoyi to know the length of their protection. Xiong Jing said a serious matter, and without waiting for Concubine Zhao to agree, he got up and said, "The child retires." ”

"Stop!" Concubine Zhao shouted, and Zhengse said: "The king is the king of a country, why do you think that a woman ig......nores the wives and concubines of the palace" Concubine Zhao is positive, but no matter how positive Xiong Jing is, he can't hear it, he left Ying Nan and the others and quickly walked down the steps and left the Beichen Palace. Seeing this, the rest of the women were at a loss, and Ying Nan quickly supported the angry Concubine Zhao and persuaded her not to be angry.

Last night, the Taifu discussed until midnight, and did not come up with any feasible solutions. The only effective way is probably for Concubine Zhao to come forward to condemn the king's unfilial piety, but how can this kind of thing in the palace be said to make the common people and the world laugh? Besides, unfilial piety is a crime in the Qin state, but it may not be a crime in the Chu state, and it is not even a moral condemnation.

Even in the Tang Dynasty, there were only nine crimes: it was unfilial to sue one's parents (one article), it was unfilial to curse and beat one's parents (two), it was unfilial piety not to support one's parents (one), it was unfilial piety to marry, obey auspiciousness, and not mourn when one's grandparents were mourning (three articles), it was unfilial piety for grandparents and parents to be alive and foreign, and it was unfilial piety to falsely claim that grandparents were dead (one article).

There are no other unfilial piety clauses other than the nine articles, and Qin Law punishes unfilial piety, at most the first few articles, and the other nationality and wealth and self-reliance are originally advocated by Qin Law. According to the feudal law of the Qin Dynasty, what Xiong Jing really committed was the crime of 'not obeying the fatwa', which simply means not listening to his parents. This kind of sin did not exist in the pre-Qin period, and even if it did, it was not suitable for the king of a country.

For example, Concubine Zhao asked her son to lead an army to rescue Zhao Guo, but if her son did not save him, he would 'not obey the fatwa'. How is this possible? Sending troops is a state affair, and the marriage of the king of a country is also a state affair rather than a simple family affair, Concubine Zhao wants her son to marry Ying Nan, and if she doesn't marry, she doesn't obey the decree, which is of course impossible.

What he wants to do and what he does not do, the king has his own judgment; To distinguish between state affairs and family affairs, the monarch also has the freedom to judge. In addition to the restrictions on the decision of the Zheng Dynasty, as long as Xiong Jing does not delay the Zhao Dynasty every day, and sits in the back of the Zhao Dynasty and waits for the ministers to discuss with him - in short, he does not delay work, and the Zheng Dynasty ministers have no good reason to restrict Xiong Jing from boarding in a small town outside the city.

In the Beichen Palace, her son disappeared in a blink of an eye, and Concubine Zhao wanted to cry without tears. Ying Nan had just persuaded her to be in a better mood, and a temple man hurried in again, and said, "Tell the Queen Mother, the king, the king, ......."

"How's the king?" Concubine Zhao raised her eyebrows, probably guessing what was going on.

"The king is out of the south gate." The temple people lowered their eyebrows and pleasing their eyes, trying to be tactful in their words, but they still aroused the anger that Concubine Zhao had just suppressed. With a 'bang', the food table was overturned by her hands, and the temple maids present were so frightened that they hurriedly knelt down.

Ying Nan and the four new ladies were full of fear on their faces, and Ying Nan hurriedly persuaded: "Auntie, don't be angry, the king, the king ......, and now it's time to sue the temple, the king can't spoil us." After the end of the temple in March, the king and I will share the bed, and then we will no longer go to Xiaoyi. ”

If there is no temple wedding, it will not be completely over, these three months are three months without a way, and after the three-month wedding, the situation will be different. Ying Nan's words made some sense at first, but Concubine Zhao understood her son after all, and she laughed and said, "Do you think the king will share the bed with you?" ”

Concubine Zhao laughed so much that the hearts of the daughters froze, if you don't join the bed, it is equivalent to retiring from the marriage, will the king really do this?

"Dream! The king will not share a bed with you. The smile quickly faded, and Concubine Zhao couldn't sit on the mat, as if she was ten years old. She suddenly remembered her husband Xiong Yuan, the father and son were carved out of a mold, and they both broke her heart.
