Chapter 405: Have You Ever Heard of Free Love?
Hey, it's just the two of us now, you're still so polite to me, in ten days, we'll be married, how are you preparing for the dowry? ”
Xu Rou's words were a little resentful, if it weren't for the fact that there were still people watching not far away, Zhang Yi felt that she would cross her waist and say this.
"The dowry is already being prepared, but I'm really not used to it."
Xu Rou was too direct, but it made Zhang Yi a little embarrassed, this is more than the flash marriage of modern people, one moment he was still a stranger, he had never known each other, and the next moment, he felt that he could almost enter the cave room, you must know one thing, now in the Tang Dynasty, this is ancient China!
"Not used to it? Why are you not used to it? Zhang Yi just said that he was not used to it, but Xu Rou didn't know what he said that he was not used to, whether he was used to staying here with him or what he was not used to.
"I'm not used to saying that I was given marriage by Your Majesty, after all, we have never met, Your Majesty has to let us live for the rest of our lives, this matter is a bit ridiculous."
Sometimes Zhang Yi enjoyed these privileges of ancient Chinese feudal society, but sometimes he would be very disgusted, such as now, he would be disgusted with Li Er's dictatorship.
Xu Rou smiled and said: "What's not used to, the words of the matchmaker of the parents' orders, haven't they been like this since ancient times?" Besides, this is a marriage from His Majesty, whether we want it or not, we have to do it. ”
Xu Rou has never lived in modern society, and she does not have any concept of equality between men and women in her mind, so all this is very normal in her consciousness, because for thousands of years, this pattern has been followed in this land.
But Zhang Yi is different, his mind is full of the consciousness of two eras, and these two consciousnesses will often clash fiercely in his mind, and he doesn't know how to do it.
Although he lives in this era, he should live with the consciousness of this era, but he feels that the consciousness of later generations is more advanced, and human beings should always progress, so he will feel that he should adhere to the consciousness of later generations and cannot abandon them.
After a moment of entanglement, Zhang Yi sighed.
"The words of the parents' order matchmaker, although they say so, but after all, marriage is a matter for the two of us, I think it should be decided by the parties, and it will be better for parents and kings to give advice.
After all, the road is our own, then we have to choose ourselves, whether we regret it or not, at least we can choose, if we let our parents make decisions for us, then even if we regret it, we can't make any changes, and our lives will be wasted. ”
Now there are only Zhang Yi and Xu Rou here, so Zhang Yi has no intention of stopping.
Originally, the two of them were discussing life now!
Of course, too big things have nothing to do with them, and the two of them just want to explore the life between the two of them now.
"Have you ever heard of free love?" Zhang Yi asked Xu Rou.
Xu Rou shook her head and asked, "What is love?" What does it mean to be free to love? ”
Zhang Yi frowned embarrassedly, the word love is a brand new word for ancient people, and they don't know the meaning of the words love and democracy at all.
Now, Zhang Yi had no choice but to explain to Xu Rou in his own words, and said: "Free love is not bound by anyone such as parents, to put it in layman's terms, free love is to let you choose your partner by yourself, without the consent of your parents or anyone, you just need to choose the one you like the most, and then boldly pursue him." ”
Xu Rou is a smart woman, and when Zhang Yi talks about this, she can naturally imagine what it will be like.
"Sounds very good, but it's not suitable for our times, if you dare to say this to Your Majesty, you will definitely be arrested and you will be convicted of great rebellion."
Xu Rou smiled and joked with Zhang Yi, although Zhang Yi said it well, but she didn't think that there would really be a woman in this society like Zhang Yi said, who dared to marry without the words of her parents.
However, although Xu Rou said this, Zhang Yi could still hear a trace of wavering in her heart, if there was a chance, who wouldn't want to hold their fate in their own hands.
But now it's too cruel, Zhang Yi had to spread out his hand and said: "That's a way I've been pursuing, although it's difficult to work in this era, but I've really done it, although it has no effect, I'm not afraid to be embarrassed to tell you, I met Princess Pu'an in this state, but this way seems to really annoy Your Majesty, so I will have so many disasters now." ”
Then Zhang Yi began to tell some interesting things about him and Li Hui, and now he and Xu Rou are not so far apart, after all, they are about to become a nominal husband and wife, and in this era, becoming a husband and wife is basically a lifetime, so the two of them don't have so many defenses.
However, some of Zhang Yi's occasional meat words made Xu Rou's face red, making the scene more warm and harmonious.
Looking at Zhang Yi, who was talking, Xu Rou slowly became fascinated.
She didn't know Zhang Yi before, and he didn't have much affection for these stinky men.
When she learned that His Majesty Li Er gave her a marriage and married her to Zhang Yi, her first feeling was disgust, she didn't like the fate of being manipulated at will.
But seeing Zhang Yi today, she felt that she should be grateful to Li Er, if it wasn't for Li Er's marriage, she wouldn't have known about Zhang Yi, although she often heard this name during this time, but Xu Rou has always been not very interested in men.
But it wasn't until today, until now, that she heard Zhang Yi's words, and she felt the difference between Zhang Yi.
He is different from other men, and it can even be said that he is incompatible with the consciousness of this era, and among the things he pursues is called equality.
As the saying goes, good-looking skins are the same, and interesting souls are one in a thousand, and Zhang Yi is undoubtedly one in a million.
"Maybe it's not so bad to marry him, although he is not very well treated by the royal family, but if he can live happily and comfortably, he cares so much!"
After listening to Zhang Yi's words, Xu Rou had already made up her mind, and now, she was waiting for Zhang Yi to come to the door and marry her home ten days later.
Women, it is indeed a strange animal, even Xu Rou feels so much, she has always been defensive and hostile to men in her life, but she didn't expect to care so much about a man now.
Man, what a strange!
