Chapter Ninety-Five: Family Trivia
Wang Anshi's book has the aspect of excessive interference in the trade of merchants, and Shen Kuo's book is a technical book, once something is leaked, the businessman who pays Shen Kuo's equity dividends will suffer a lot. Merchants occupy the majority of the board of directors of the book city, and it is impossible not to oppose it.
"Alright. Su Qing's family, no matter who matters, whether the people of Junshi Book City are derelict in their duties and impeached by the people of the Ministry of Supervision and the Ministry of Rites, you can say the solution! Zhao Ji stopped the unnecessary argument and spoke.
Su Shi is the kind of person who has something to say, and he is a person with a strong sense of responsibility like a scholar ruling the world. This was true historically, and it is still so. At this time, Su Shi was so refuted that he couldn't speak, and when he saw Zhao Ji breaking the siege, he arched his hand and said: "The content of the book is good and bad, and you can choose some of it to compile and sell." This is not contrary to the will of the Holy One to develop the wisdom of the people. ”
Zhao Ji nodded, and asked Sima Guang again, "What does Mr. Junshi think?" ”
"Wechen has no objection to this plan. However, whether to implement it or not will have to be discussed by the board of directors of the book city before a decision can be made. Sima Guang saw that Zhao Ji was still protecting Su Shi, so he didn't want to say too much.
"Retreat." Zhang Ruoshui shouted at the top of his voice.
;;;;;;;;;;; Zhao Ji has been very busy, so busy that he doesn't know what his children are called, and he is really an incompetent father. I returned to Funing Palace that night, ate a little food, washed and went to sleep. Running around, I suddenly felt a sense of exhaustion. It's not that the body can't do it, but I feel an inexplicable emptiness.
Last night's attendant was the concubine Li Peiling, Zhao Ji slept early and slept soundly, and the two didn't say anything. Not only Li Peiling, but also everyone else, talking less. I don't know what to say, Zhao Ji doesn't have that kind of flirtatious mood. At the beginning, my days could only stay in the memory of the Li family racecourse, and now it is more of a calm and boring day like an old husband and wife.
In addition to being larger, the imperial palaces in Shangjing are all built in imitation of the Bianjing Imperial Palace, and there is no feeling of being in a foreign country. After Zhao Ji washed up, after having breakfast with his five wives and four children, he didn't have time to accompany them, and there were many recitals in the Chongzheng Palace waiting for him to stamp the jade seal? Zhao Ji didn't want to be lazy, so he handed over such a thing to Li Xiang'an to do.
There are a lot fewer people in the palace, except for the Empress Dowager Cao, there are more than two other concubines, concubines and other maidservants. In the palace, the family is divided like the lighting dynasty, and the huge palace is more like a residential area, although they are all members of the royal family, but they have their own lives in their own lives, and the living budget is allocated from the inner treasury, and it is difficult to be luxurious.
Zhao Ji's five wives are only eight maidservants, and they may not be needed for laundry and cooking, but sometimes they have to take care of the children. The children are all young, the eldest is three years old, the youngest is two years old, and they are all feeding age. Naturally, the wives have to do the work of feeding themselves, watching the wives feed the children, Zhao Ji seems to have a feeling of living in the afterlife.
Although Zhao Ji rarely had time to care about them, the problem of growth, under the arrangement of the imperial doctor, was still very good. Zhao Ji is also relieved of this, after all, the problem of children dying prematurely has always existed.
"Going to fight the horse hoist later?" After eating, Zhao Ji got dressed and prepared to go to the Chongzheng Palace.
"Princess Hechang and the Queen Mother of the two palaces have made an appointment." Xiang said lightly to the queen.
"Holy Lord, the concubine begs you for one thing." Li Peiling seems to be accustomed to life in the palace and has become more regular.
"What else is there that you can't do?" Zhao Ji said with a smile.
"My second brother served in the fire cavalry, and now that his service period has arrived, can the saint let him retire?" Li Peiling handed the dishes and chopsticks to the maidservant, stood up and said.
"Oh, what's wrong? Why retire? Isn't it good to be meritorious in the army? Li Peiyang seems to have been promoted to captain, right? Zhao Ji recalled.
"The concubine's mother died early, and the old father was the only one in the family. The concubine is in the palace, and after the eldest brother invented the thunderbolt, his net worth has doubled, and he has set up his own door. The only one who can inherit the ancestral business is the second brother, and his father hopes that he can go home to learn to do business. Li Peiling obviously said it at Li Zhanma's orders.
"It's not that you don't know, the second brother has the ability to be a general or something, let him do business, and don't want his life. Besides, whether to retire or not, he can decide for himself. Zhao Ji thought about it for a moment and asked rhetorically.
Li Peiyang's service period has indeed arrived, but after becoming a captain, he can freely choose whether to retire or not.
"My father said that he couldn't move the second brother, so he asked me to come to the saint for help." Li Peiling said honestly.
"It's hard for me to persuade you. If what I say is a holy decree, isn't that persecution of the second brother? Zhao Ji shook his head and said.
"You faint gentleman, do you agree?" Li Peiling revealed her true nature and said with a fist.
Other people are also used to Li Peiling's appearance, and they don't look at it, they still feed their children.
"Alright. and play the temper of the eldest lady. It's not that you can't hear what your father-in-law means, it's you who he fancies. You're afraid that I won't agree, so you will talk about the second brother, right? Zhao Ji pinched Li Peiling's nose and smiled.
Li Peiling put down her fist, said with a smile on her face, and was about to suffocate to death in the palace, and hurriedly said, "Then the saint agreed?" ”
"You can't raise a group of noodle heads like other female businessmen, so I agreed." Zhao Ji said with a smile.
There were many female businessmen and female landlords in the Song Dynasty, comparing each other's faces, and even giving each other's faces. Zhao Ji didn't want Li Peiling to be like them, so he was a cuckold. If you really want to be a cuckold, then there will be nowhere to put the face of this son of heaven.
"Hmph, what's wrong with the noodle head? Isn't it without a condom? Li Peiling glared at Zhao Ji, and when she saw Zhao Ji's embarrassment, she hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, no, at most, go back to the palace regularly to play with the sisters." ”
The sweat in Zhao Ji's heart. Food, clothing, lust, and desire, plus these harem women, have nothing to do, and it is impossible not to be uncomfortable empty. However, there are many rules and precepts, and if a married woman messes around, it will be soaked in a pig cage or even executed. After all, they are not in charge of their own homes, and they can't be like the heroines outside.
Speaking of which, the Song Dynasty is also very contradictory, although it is very open, but after starting a family, it is still so open, it is to bear legal responsibility. Unlike later generations, there was nothing to have an extramarital affair, in the Song Dynasty, only the head of the household could, and if others messed around, they would be executed, which was very cruel. The so-called head of the household is the head of the family, regardless of gender. It was a businesswoman, a landlady and a head of the household, and the man who married them was not. This situation evolved into a redundancy in later generations.
The Song Dynasty was full of lust and love, and adult health care products were not less than in later generations, and Li Peiling said that going back to the palace to play with her sisters was very popular in the case of polygamy in the Song Dynasty. In the Song Dynasty, this was not called polygamy, there was only one wife, and the ladies and the like were all concubines. The head of the household must obtain the consent of the wife to increase the number of wives in the family, and it is a crime to increase the number of wives without consent. Because of such things, there were many divorces in the Song Dynasty.
Although there were many divorces, it was a very serious matter in the Song Dynasty. It's not like in the Ming and Qing dynasties, you can divorce your wife with a letter of divorce. In the Song Dynasty, the division of property was the main issue. Once divorced, women can take away all the rich dowries they have brought with them, as well as most of the property they have owned after marriage.
The marriage of the Song Dynasty, in addition to the marriage of people, was also the combination of two wealth. When people divorce, wealth will naturally be separated.
In the Song Dynasty, after a divorce, if you want to marry again, it is difficult, almost impossible. This is different from later generations, later generations also pay attention to the division of divorced family property, but when a woman marries, in addition to asking for a huge bride price, there will be no dowry, the so-called dowry, in fact, is also from the bride price money to take a little bit out of the purchase. Later generations of women took advantage of this, and there were many people who cheated on marriage. As a result, there are countless lawsuits.
"Holy Lord, why don't we go over together later! The Holy Lord hasn't asked the two houses for a while. Said to the queen.
After Zhao Ji was bored and accompanied his wives to feed the children, the children were handed over to the maidservants and went to Qingshou Palace together.
When I came to Qingshou Palace, I found that Empress Dowager Gao was also there, and Princess Chang was also there. After Zhao Ji saluted the two palaces, Princess Chang saluted Zhao Ji and said, "My brother and daughter-in-law have seen the saint. ”
"What are you busy with? Are you here to accompany the Virgin Mary to play horse hanging? Zhao Ji asked casually.
"King Chang, like other clans, opened a workshop, and he took a few people to work early this morning." Princess Chang said timidly.
"I opened a workshop, what kind of workshop did I open?" Zhao Ji then asked.
"Embroidery. Business is good. After a while, with the money, you can build a royal mansion outside. Princess Chang said eagerly.
Although King Chang lives in the East Palace, the East Palace always has to be let out, after all, the princes will grow up. After being a puppet emperor once, King Chang has no extravagant hopes for the position of the emperor's younger brother, and now the support cost of the clan is small, so he can only think of making a little more money and setting up his own door, so as not to stay in the palace, and there is a feeling of being under the fence.
"Do you still have time to see my wife?" Empress Dowager Cao said unhappily.
Empress Dowager Cao finally took the initiative to talk to Zhao Hao, since the royal family moved to Shangjing, Zhao Hao has not been placed under house arrest anymore. Zhao Ji didn't make a mistake after all, and he didn't assassinate his brother. Empress Dowager Cao and Empress Dowager Gao knew that Zhao Hao's fate was saved, so they were relieved.
"Our Lady forgives her sins, my grandson is too busy. There are many things to move the capital. Zhao Ji half-knelt beside the Empress Dowager Cao and said with a smile.
"What do you think about the prince's affairs? Shen'er is three years old, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, very much like an official family, so he should be the prince. Empress Dowager Cao tried to ask.
"The official family is always running around, and there is no prince in the country, and something will happen." On the side, Empress Dowager Gao said the same.
"The emperors are still young, I'm still young, and nothing will happen. Our Lady and Mother rest assured. Zhao Wei argued.
"It's not small. It's just a prince. Empress Dowager Cao glared at Zhao Ji.
Empress Dowager Cao didn't understand what Zhao Ji meant, and thought, "It's not that the older one is nothing, what about your two younger brothers?" But have you risen? ”
"The official family, the early establishment of the prince, the great fortune of the country." Empress Dowager Gao said with help on the side.
"Brother Hao's performance during this period of time makes me very satisfied, after the election of the political hall, I will personally canonize him as the emperor's younger brother, the regent, and truly become the lord of the East Palace." Zhao Ji said indifferently.
"Official, don't you let go of your brother?" Empress Dowager Gao was frightened and cried by Zhao Ji's decision.
I thought that the puppet emperor's matter was over, but I didn't expect Zhao Ji to bring this matter out again. Empress Dowager Cao and Empress Dowager Gao are not the kind of women who don't understand politics, and they wondered in their hearts: Does Zhao Ji want to completely pull out the people of King Chang's family, uproot them, and open the way for his son?
