In the council hall, Li Er looked at Bai Fan heavily and asked: "Boy, it's on the cusp, a sky-breaking blind date activity has been made to this extent, it's not that I can't withstand the pressure of the court, there must be someone here who is fueling the troubles, the key is that a group of boys in the academy are in a hurry to marry a daughter-in-law and let the family catch the handle, how about it?" Can you handle it? ”

Bai Fan wants to overturn the wedding etiquette set by his ancestors, this matter can be said to be a big earthquake in the Tang Dynasty literary circles, and a rumor has pushed Bai Fan to the opposite side of all literati.

So Li Er summoned him to the Yizheng Palace, Li Yuan, Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji, and Li Yuanba were all there, and they didn't call anyone else.

Bai Fan smiled helplessly: "I just want to help my sisters, I didn't expect to cause chaos, the ancient marriage etiquette, since the Duke of Zhou, has been followed for almost two thousand years, and I don't want to overturn and change it, why is it like this?" ”

Li Jiancheng reprimanded dissatisfiedly: "It's all you, you don't die when you fight snakes, you are still soft-hearted to your enemies, and you are left to find trouble for you."

If there are no big families to help this matter, I don't believe it, you kid is good, people bullied you to the desperate situation of writing a suicide note, after you are developed, as if you have forgotten the past, as far as their affairs, you will destroy the Cui family's nest and no one dares to speak, this is a 'Wei' word! ”

Li Yuan waved his hand to stop Li Jiancheng, "Okay, although what you said is right, boss, this kid is indeed not ruthless enough, resulting in being often calculated by others, but this is also his advantage, the so-called art master is bold!"

You don't know, when Yueyang was upstairs, he pleaded with the old man for leniency to deal with the four anti-thieves in Dongting Lake, and the old man had already spared the Dou family girl for him, what did he do to protect the anti-thieves? After all, they are all local snakes who have been fighting for tigers for more than ten years, what is a pity?

Do you know what he says? ”

As soon as Li Yuan said this, the two Li brothers were curious, but Bai Fan waved his hand and didn't want Li Yuan to say it, and he was a little embarrassed.

"The boy said, 'True courage is not knowing when to kill, but when to forgive others!'

Just this sentence, others will definitely think that this kid does not know the sky and the earth to educate the old man, but he said that this is taught by the teacher in the previous life, the first evil has been eliminated, those are the people of Datang, Datang will be afraid of a group of headless rats? Or will Datang be afraid that the people will take the initiative to rebel?

Killing them can't prove how powerful Datang is to eliminate evil, it will only make the people afraid, the real avenue is to let the people respect, let the people love, not be afraid!

The old man later thought back a lot, and the violent Qin recorded in the history books may have embarked on this fork in the road.

It's not that this kid doesn't know how to use officialdom, but his state of mind is higher than ours, and he doesn't look at the Cui family at all. ”

Li Yuan's words made the brothers of the Li family speechless, especially that famous sentence, which is really worth recalling.

After a long time, Li Er asked again: "You kid is kind-hearted, people don't spare you, now that you are in a desperate situation, you have to take it, let's say, have you thought about how to solve it?" ”

Bai Fan pondered for a moment, raised his head and said loudly: "Since this is the case, it is better to bring this matter to the surface to discuss it, although Confucian masters and scholars feel that it is disrespectful to revise the law of the ancestors, but since the people have so many people who pursue blind dates and love, it must be that the people need this aspect, and what the people need is what the state affairs need to solve." ”

"Yes, this is indeed a good sentence for politics, I should write it down and tell the ministers to keep it in mind, and then say, how do you want to solve it?"

Li Er picked up the pen and wrote down what Bai Fan said before, and at the same time urged Bai Fan to come up with countermeasures, and the pen kept writing, as if he wanted to be a scribe for him personally.

"The law of the ancestors is not immutable, otherwise where did Shang Ying change the law to force Qin, in this matter, the reason why the etiquette law makes young people dissatisfied is that it is too conservative, and the words of the parents are naturally very good, because the parents will not harm their children, and they want them to marry well.

However, this point is inconsistent with the children of the parties, what parents like is not what their children like, some parents will be greedy for wealth, and would rather their daughters marry a rich and noble family than with an eighteen poor boy, in today's era, eighteen brides and eighty lang is simply commonplace.

In this way, there is a lack of humanity, and the eighty bridegroom is happy, but what about the eighteenth bride? Marry an old man in a good year, and when the old man returns to heaven in two years, well, there is one more widow in the world who has suffered all her life.

As far as the country is concerned, a woman in the prime of her life has spent her whole life and wasted labor, which is a waste of a good woman who imports for the country, which is not good for the country.

Besides, even if the male and female grades are similar, the two of them have never met before they get married, and they only know each other after lifting their hijabs, and their feelings must be cultivated slowly, what if they can't be cultivated? If you don't look at each other well, the man can divorce his wife, or if he can't divorce, the backyard will be on fire and the family will be restless.

The promotion of a marriage seems to be just a trivial matter in the people's family, but it is actually related to the national economy and people's livelihood. What about government demographics? The more powerful the more effortful, it seems that it has nothing to do with the imperial court, but in fact, if it fails, it will be a waste of people's financial resources. ”

"This, this, a small marriage, how can it involve so much? According to what you say, isn't there a big problem with the words of the matchmaker of the parents, how should the imperial court solve it? Li Jiancheng was puzzled.

Bai Fan waved his hand and said: "No, no, there have never been perfect rules for marriage, so this incident, what about the opinion of the son-in-law, since the other party wants me to come out to confront me, take the opportunity to take me."

It is better to make it public and let the people choose to judge. ”

Li Er shook his head and said: "Most of the people are blindly following the herd, how can they choose?" ”

"No, the people are actually the people who know the most etiquette, and etiquette should come from the people, and then return to the people, and only when it is accepted by the people will it be inherited.

The way to do this is to hold a public debate in Chang'an City, and the topic of the debate is whether marriage should be the words of the parents or the free union of men and women?

The two sides of the debate, those who support the ancient rites can be publicly elected, represented by ten people, and ten people can also be sent to deal with the humanized blind date, and the two sides prepare their own argument views, and whoever can convince the other party is a victory.

If the two sides are on par, Chang'an City will elect 50 elderly people with high moral integrity, 50 middle-aged parents who are old and respectful, 50 young people who have already started a family and have children, 50 young people who have not yet started a family and no favorite person, and 100 officials from all parties in the imperial court, a total of 500 people as judges, and the final evaluation results.

Let's see if the law of the ancestors should be changed, the result of the conference is the choice of the people, and Your Majesty can conform to the will of the people. ”

Li Er touched his beard and said with a smile: "Boy, you have already calculated it, your Bai Fan Tiezui Divine Debate is several years earlier than your apprentice Du Wei, with you, wouldn't a group of Confucian masters be angry to death?" Will they win? ”

Bai Fan took out a pamphlet and handed it over, and retorted: "No, no, the kid is public-minded, regardless of personal enmity just to solve the national situation, even if the other party wins this time, it can only represent the public opinion, I, Bai Fan, have no official or position, it's a big deal that the marquis doesn't want to go back to teach for a lifetime, with the royal family as a backer, can you still kill me?"

This is the advantages and disadvantages of both sides of my handwriting, Your Majesty can hand it over to those adults who keep the ceremony, I heard that Lord Wei Zheng is the person who is the leader this time, Your Majesty told Lao Wei, to see the big from the small, and guide this matter to the state affairs, it will have a different effect. ”

Li Er smiled, "Look at your kid Chengzhu in your chest, you know who you must be calculating, I heard that Old Master Yan and Mr. Wen Ji are also against it, why didn't they come to the stage to debate?" ”

"Those two old men have been enlightened by my sincere words, and said that this is a literary practical assessment for the students of the academy, and as teachers, they will not participate in this matter." Bai Fan said seriously.

Enlighten? Everyone covered their mouths and burst into laughter instantly, Bai Fan's enlightenment is probably not a good thing, the two old men don't know what they have been abused.
