Chapter 121 - Rakshasa Takes a Widow
"Huang Ama has won the award, and the so-called 'wife' has always been a concern of people, and it is a big deal." Hongyi heard Fulin's applause, and was polite, and at the same time unfolded the "trap" and waited for the emperor to drill.
"Well said, wife, wife, only by marrying a wife and having children can you have a family! King Jianjun lost his wife, and it was indeed a big deal for him! Fulin also started the topic, perhaps because he had never tasted the sweetness of raising eyebrows between husband and wife in the matter of his wife and concubine, but was "depressed".
"Huang Ama attaches great importance to the way of humanity, which is really a blessing for all people!" Hongyi immediately knelt down and knotted his father again, ready to close the set!
"Get up, get up, how can you say it well and kneel down again? As far as our father and son are concerned, there is no need to be polite. Fu Lin found that Xuan Ye suddenly disappeared from the front of the imperial case, and he didn't figure out what the situation was.
"Erchen still has an invitation, which is also a matter of human nature, and I hope that the emperor Ama will atone for his sins." Hongyi raised his head so that the emperor could see his face.
"What is so solemn, and it is normal for people to return it, get up and say it." Fulin is a little funny, how come when you talk to you about something, you can go around the bush and pull your own one-third of an acre of land? Originally, I was assigned some tasks to inspect you, but why zuihou you still assigned me tasks!
"Just kneel and play. Erchen is the Rakshasa soldier who wants to give me...... Marry...... Asking for a wife. After Hongyi finished speaking, he held his breath so that his face looked red and shy.
"Huh? What did you say? Haha...... "Sure enough, Emperor Daxiao."
"Erchen. …… To give...... Ask for it from the Rakshasas...... The wife ...... "Hongyi deliberately intermittently and seems very boring."
"Haha, at your young age, why did you want to ask for a wife for those Rakshasa soldiers? haha…… Fast...... Tell me about it......"
"If you return to Huang Ama, it is precisely because they are soldiers and have entered the banner, if they can't marry a wife and have children like ordinary banner people, their hearts will be uneasy, and if they continue for a long time, they will not be able to be used by my Qing Dynasty!" It's time for the key part of the Eight Classics. There's no need to hide your shyness. Hongyi blurted out.
"Oh......" Fu Lin finally stopped laughing and thought about it seriously.
"Besides, if you give wives and children to those Rakshasas, they have only one master. It's you, the Emperor. There is only one homeland. It's our big clear! "Hongyi strikes while the iron is hot.
"Not bad......" Fulin expressed his initial approval.
"Even if one day, I will meet the invading Rakshasa soldiers again, these obedient Rakshasas. When facing his former employer, he has to take into account: behind him is his wife, son and daughter, and if he retreats, it is his family and blood that suffers. At that time, how can they look forward and backward, and look at both ends? I'm not afraid that they won't swear to the death! "Hongyi gave the crux of the matter.
"Well, that makes sense! I'm right! "Fulin has finally made a decision.
"However, where do you want these Rakshasa soldiers to marry? I think that those ordinary banner people, whether they are Manchurian or Han, are not willing to give their good daughter to the 'Rakshasa' as a wife, right? Fulin said a specific operational problem, but it was not difficult for Hongyi, a young man from later generations. After all, Emperor Kangxi's approach was laid out ready-made.
"What the Emperor Ama said is very true. However, Erchen thought that among the widows of the fallen soldiers of the Eight Banners of the Manchu and Han Dynasty, those widows who were struggling and worrying about their survival could be selected, and they could freely and voluntarily marry the Rakshasas. After all, the Rakshasa team is now also a serious yellow flag, and after remarrying, these widows can still enjoy the compassionate and preferential treatment of our Qing Dynasty for the flag people! ”
"Oh? Something interesting! The emperor became "interested" in these widows.
"I just implore the emperor to issue an edict to the three ministries of ceremonies, soldiers, and workers, and it should be made clear: it turns out that if their deceased husband is an official, those sacrifice silver, funeral silver, shirt silver and tablet silver should not be reduced, but follow the rules. If the deceased husband has a hereditary title, his descendants can still inherit it according to the succession. [1] If there is no heir, he shall be allowed to enjoy half of the silver and rice due to his deceased husband, and support him for life. [2] If the deceased husband is a soldier of the Eight Banners, although he will not be given funeral silver or shade, the silver will still be distributed. ”
Hongyi: This is aimed at those who are widowed and childless or have no wives and no wives and their parents are still unsupported, and they are given support for life for half a day. if the widow remarries, the payment shall be suspended".
"In addition, although they have been sent to the flag as Rakshasas, they should no longer be called 'Rakshasas', and they should be given another tribal name, and preferably the name of the small tribe that I saw in the documents when I was outside the customs of the Qing Dynasty. In this way, on the one hand, it can have the effect of changing the course of the party, changing the banner and reining their minds, and on the other hand, it can prevent the word 'rakshasa' from arousing the fear of those who remarry widows. Hongyi continued.
"Well, that's right. This can be done for bereavement and name change. As for the name of the tribe, you can also discuss it slowly with the Ministry of Rites. But who will preside over this whole matter of 'Rakshasa marrying a widow'? As soon as this statement came out, it was equivalent to the emperor's approval of this method.
"The imperial servant bureau led by the sons and daughters should be unyielding."
"You? Haha, are you still young, are you in a hurry to manage other people's marriages? "Fulin is going to be happy again.
"Since the Rakshasa team is in the banner, it is also the personal soldier and coat of the son. Besides, Erchen is still the prime minister of the Lower Five Banners Clan, the minister of the Imperial Servant Bureau, and the Rakshasa team naturalized clan management band, or ...... "Hongyi is like a few family treasures, reporting his official titles one by one, the emperor doesn't say "stop", there is a string behind!
"Okay, okay, I will depend on you, you have a series of titles, I can't give it doesn't count, it doesn't count......" Fu Lin smiled and nodded in agreement.
"Erchen will send troops for those rakshasas, thank you to the son of heaven!" Hongyi, who hadn't gotten up yet, hurriedly kowtowed again.
"Come on, where would Amma have so many thoughts at such a young age like you? and there are not so many who prostrate and prostrate themselves...... It's just that people who have no long-term worries must have near-term worries. Ama Zuihou is still the Son of Heaven, and he has become a 'lonely man', and he doesn't even have a person to talk to......" Fulin suddenly came with such a sentence without a beginning or an end, which made Hongyi a little confused by the second monk.
"Emperor Ama, the ...... of the sons"
"Hehe, Amma knows that you are concerned about state affairs, who made you so talented? I couldn't compare to you back then! ”
"Huang Ama, the sons are sincerely afraid!" Hongyi couldn't answer, and suddenly remembered a common line in the court drama, so let's deal with it.
"Hmm. The processing country is. There has to be the word fear. This is also what Huang Ama wants to tell you. Xuan Ye, let's go on an errand! Fu Lin summed up this sentence, and the implication was to end today's conversation.
"The son is the prince. If you can't share the worries and relieve the worries of the emperor. It's really unfilial! If you can't make the royal mission profitable. then incompetence! Amma, don't be too difficult about the past, but look to the future! In the minds of the sons. You must be the founder of the country! Hongyi didn't know how to end the conversation, so he could only say a few words to lift his spirits. Fortunately, this comment of "founding the Ming Jun" is not a temporary intention, throughout the entire Shunzhi Dynasty, especially after Fu Lin's pro-government, in most aspects, Fu Lin still has something to do, and can be called "Ming Jun". And the word 'founding of the country' is not sycophancy, in the minds of most Hanchen at that time, entering the customs and becoming Ming is no different from the founding of the country!
……
Out of the Yugong, Wu Liangfu posted it again with a respectful face.
"Master, you are really a merciful lord, those Rakshasa soldiers will definitely be grateful to you!"
"Oh? Thank you, Mr. Wu! Hongyi was dazed by Fulin's words, and he didn't have the heart to deal with him.
"The slave just thinks that the master should get them some more temple, so that they can 'feel at ease'...... The minion will tell Master Zhao Butai to go to the East Second Institute to make peace with you. The minion sends Lord Belle to him! After speaking, Wu Liangfu beat Qian'er to kneel down and said no more.
"Well, get up...... Hongyi's heart was shocked, yes, this temple was said by this old eunuch! Without their Greek Orthodox chapel, these religious Rakshasas wouldn't really have their palms in their hands, unless you force them to convert to other religions, but that won't work right now!
"Manager Wu said it well, Xuan Ye is taught!" After speaking, he didn't look back at the Sumeru Taiji of the Yugong.

Hurriedly returned to the East Second Institute, changed his outfit to attend the funeral, and Hongyi and Zhao Butai, who rushed to the news after hearing the news, went to the sacrificial place of Jidu Fujin.
On the way, recalling the duet in the reigning Yugong just now, Hongyi finally understood that this was a strategy of Fulin:
Since Jidu was sent to the coast of Beihai by you Xuanye, so you can't catch up with the funeral of your father, mother and wife, then let the initiator Xuanye personally participate in this additional sacrifice to reflect the royal sincerity and guilt. As for the requirement that Hongyi himself say it, it is to see if you, this kid, consider everything in such a "small matter", and whether it can coincide with his blessing!
Yes, coupled with the fact that he "approved" the matter of "Rakshasa marrying a widow" in a few words, it shows that Fulin should believe in himself more and more and value himself! Later, comparing his own same year with Xiao Xuanye, it can also prove that there was a young emperor who was not in the same year, and now he really uses Xiao Xuanye as a good way to make up for his unbearable memory, and maybe, he will pour more love into Xiao Xuanye......
It's just that you just let this Zhao Butai presiding priest, who is not as good as people, and followed my Hongyi's other wishes! haha!
As for Wu Liangfu, it is nothing more than the vane of Emperor Fulin's thoughts, seeing that he is becoming more and more favored, he came over to set it up. However, you objectively reminded me! In this case, your merits and demerits are now open, and it depends on whether you will kill yourself in the future!
[1] In addition to the sacrificial silver, funeral silver, pension silver, and tablet silver, the bereavement pensions of the officials of the Eight Banners were also awarded hereditary positions according to their grades, which were inherited by their descendants. In the Shun, Kang, and Yong dynasties, the standard for gifting the post of shadow is: the counselor and the commander of the capital to worship him Rabul Hafan and a tuo Sha Laha Pan (three times), the commander and deputy commander to give him a Rabul Hafan (two attacks), and below the battalion general staff, there are top officials and above, and they are awarded to drag Sha Lahafan (one attack). In addition, the eighth year of Shunzhi also stipulated that all those who died in battle before the issuance of the edict of Shunzhi pro-government were allowed to be "hereditary cabinet replacements", and those who were later succeeded were inherited according to the succession. In the first year of Qianlong (1736), Baita Rabul Hafan was renamed as the Cavalry Captain, and Tuosha Rahafan was renamed the Cloud Cavalry Captain. At the end of the fifteenth year of Qianlong, the Qianlong Emperor approved that since the Shunzhi pro-government edict was obtained due to the death of the hereditary position, when the raid was over, "the reward was given to the seven-rank official, so that he could be replaced by hereditary Zhou". In the following year, the hereditary seven-rank official was renamed "Encai Lieutenant", and the annual salary was forty-five taels.
[2] A widow who has no children enjoys half of her deceased husband's salary, which was a rule in the second year of Shunzhi. (To be continued......)
PS: Today's second watch, strive to be like this often......
