Chapter 198: Decree
Liu Fuyao looked at his daughter-in-law with a somewhat complicated look, not that she was too ruthless, but that she felt sorry for her being pregnant at a young age, so she took care of all aspects of everything, just for a Murong Zhaoyang.
Liu Fuyao is happy that his son married such a daughter-in-law who is dedicated to him, but his daughter-in-law married to Chenwangfu at the age of eleven, and she also raised and watched her grow up, not to mention that she hurts her more than her son, but after so many years of getting along, her daughter-in-law's position in Liu Fuyao's heart is not much different from that of her son!
"Mingzhu, you have to learn to feel more sorry for yourself." Liu Fuyao couldn't say that Bai Yuluo would pay less attention to Murong Zhaoyang, but he always wanted his daughter-in-law to take care of herself more.
Bai Yuluo looked up at the distress in his mother's eyes, slowly hooked the corners of his lips and said with a smile: "Mother, I have my father, queen and mother who are in pain, and my husband is spoiled, and even the master also protects me, these are enough!" My mother doesn't have to worry about me, my husband has always pampered and protected me. β
"You child, in addition to being ashamed of her young concubine in this life, whether she marries or gives birth to a child, it is also satisfactory to marry a daughter-in-law, but the most pleasing thing about me is that you were only eleven years old back then, so I agreed to Zhaoyang to marry you home, a good daughter-in-law, three generations of good children and grandchildren, the ancients did not deceive me!"
Liu Fuyao looked at Bai Yuluo with a smile, and said with some emotion, fortunately, she is not one of those noble ladies who value face more than the sky, fortunately, she has always doted on her son, and when her son wanted to marry his daughter-in-law, she and the prince agreed to this marriage without hesitation.
Bai Yuluo listened to Liu Fuyao's words, lowered his eyes and said softly: "Mother, sincerity is exchanged for sincerity, not to mention that Zhaoyang gentleman is pure and pure, it is for so many years, my father and mother have treated me as my own daughter, you are all the most important people in Mingzhu, our family will not talk about this." β
"Mother, tell me carefully what has changed in Chang'an in recent years, and how have the decrees in the court been implemented? Do you have any small moves in those family gate valves? Mother, after all, I'm too far away here, and I only have a general understanding of some specific decrees, and my mother will tell me in detail, and I know what to expect. β
Liu Fuyao thought for a while and said: "There are no big moves in the family, but there are constant small moves in private, but this is inevitable, people live in the world, who doesn't have a little selfishness, as long as it does not damage the interests of the court, the emperor and your father can only turn a blind eye, after all, there is no fish when the water is clear." β
"Selfishness is human nature, it is understandable for my father and uncle to do this, mother, these are not to see through, I understand, I am not so high that everything is for Dayan for the court, to say the most ugly words, if I am not for Zhaoyang, for my father and mother, I care about the flood outside, I have never felt the love of my relatives since I have a memory, except for the master, I have not seen the kindness of others!"
Bai Yuluo said indifferently: "If it weren't for marrying Zhaoyang, if it wasn't for the love of my father and mother, I don't know what I could do, the master once said that I am open-minded and don't care about other people's eyes and discussions, others don't know, my mother doesn't know me, I care about those people, their eyes are good, whether they are talking about it, life and death have anything to do with me." β
"Mingzhu has done well enough, your character is so good, if you don't care, you won't be wronged and hurt, you are the same as Zhaoyang, you should know Zhaoyang, he has been like this since he was a child, and I and your father didn't find out before, and it was later when I looked at his attitude towards the Queen Mother, I knew that his character was also born with it in his bones."
Liu Fuyao smiled and said lightly, his daughter-in-law was forced to do this in desperation later, in order to protect her character, but his own son is not, his son is born with a cold heart in his bones, for so many years, in addition to them as parents and Bai Yuluo, there is also a Murong Xuanjue into his heart.
"Mingzhu, the decree of the court has been quite smooth in recent years, but it is really difficult to break the barriers between the scholars, although there are some cold officials in the court, but almost all of them are military attachΓ©s, and the civil officials are not from the Shu clan even if they are Jiupin civil officials, although our Dayan attaches great importance to military generals, but military attaches are naturally half a rank lower than civil officials, even the imperial court is helpless!"
Gently knocking on the chessboard in front of him, Bai Yuluo said softly: "Mother, since Cao Wei, military power has always been valued by every king, but in troubled times, by force, and in peaceful and prosperous times, civil officials govern the country, or we have to improve the identity and status of military generals, otherwise these scholars know if they will want to follow the example of Sima Jin, the king and the horse, and work the world!" β
"They think, it's a pity that our Murong royal family is not the Sima family of the previous dynasty, these scholars dare, not to mention the emperor, that is, if your father finds out who dares, your father can directly destroy his nine clans!" Liu Fuyao snorted coldly and said disdainfully, now these families do not have the scenery of the Sima family when they were in power, nor do they have the style of those scholars at that time.
Bai Yuluo shook his head and said: "Mother, these big families have always had their noses turned to the sky, and there are very few of the scholars in the Wei and Jin dynasties who can be inherited now, that is, the Wang family, who has always called themselves the Langya Wang family, but who of us doesn't know that when the foreign tribes slaughtered the Central Plains, the Langya Wang family was almost all dead, not only their family, but the entire Han family at that time, and there are few families that can be inherited!" β
"It's true that the demeanor of the Wei and Jin dynasties and the style of Jian'an back then are really one of the ten now, it's a pity!" Liu Fuyao remembered the style of the scholar clan at that time described in the book, and sighed with some regret.
Bai Yuluo is not deeply touched by these, this dynasty is a courtier, not to mention that the foreign invasion almost destroyed the entire Central Plains, almost broke the backbone of the Han family, Murong ancestors had no choice, raised troops to resist, it took two generations to drive away the foreigners, the establishment of Dayan, but the Dayan of the year can be described as full of devastation, the entire Central Plains people are not living, ten rooms and nine empty, after several generations of kings and ministers to have the current Dayan.
These scholars want to restore the face of the scholars in the Wei and Jin dynasties, they are almost dreaming, Bai Yuluo has never worried about these scholars being demons, what she is worried about is that Xiliang and Hou Zhao, the ambitions of the wolf sons of these two neighboring countries have never changed, when will these two countries be destroyed, Dayan can really have no worries!
"Mother, how is the matter of going to sea?"
Liu Fuyao thought for a while and said: "It's very lively, no one is allowed to interfere with the merchant ships sent by the imperial court, but these big families, seeing a lot of interests, how can they be honest and dare not pay the attention of the imperial court, so they will send ships to follow the merchant ships of the imperial court, and every time they make a lot of money, that's it, the emperor and your father have no good way, they can't be contained!" β
