Regarding Jeanne's statement, Guo Kang was noncommittal.

He looked back and forth, saw that Theodora was not there, and told Jeanne not to pay too much attention.

"The current political structure of the Purple Horde is not necessarily deliberately formed, as you said." Guo Kang explained: "It's not that we deliberately want this outcome, but ...... No, it won't work. ”

"Our current situation is not just intermarriage with the Great Khan and the Greek noblewoman, but the Greek noblewoman is about to control the entire court."

"Why is that?" Although he has the name of a son, Zhu Wenkui doesn't seem to understand it at all.

"I don't know the specific process, anyway, I just can't fight." Guo Kang said.

"The Khan's court is not closed to the nobles everywhere. As long as you show your loyalty and get recognition, you can come to Dadu, enter the court, participate in various social activities, and even get appointments and handle affairs. So, theoretically, people from anywhere can come. ”

"But in reality, it doesn't work at all. You can see the past performance of these noble ladies, even a pure layman like me can see it. Guo Kang said helplessly: "At present, most of the upper echelons may be the only ones on our side who are in a better situation." ”

"The father-in-law hoped that the stepmother would come forward and organize the Han family to deal with the Greek women led by the queen. But there are too few people on our side, and my stepmother is not interested in this, so it didn't work out. ”

"None of the other ladies are reliable?" Jeanne asked.

"yes. When Basil III married a young lady from a Serbian aristocratic family, it was already a highlight moment. Guo Kang said: "The main thing is that the level of these people is really not good. ”

"You see, since the establishment of the tent, there have been many great khans from generation to generation, and has the situation changed in the face of Greek noblewomen? Not at all. ”

"The Empress Dowager Helena also has a reason to say, what have I been exposed to since I was a child? I'm in the circle of Greek noblewomen. Where did these barbarian village girls come from, just play palace fighting with me. ”

"What is the level of these noble ladies now?" He himself couldn't stand it a little: "At the beginning, everyone wanted to let other noblewomen from other backgrounds check and balance them, but there were few top-notch ones, and now even the noble lady of Ross is used to make up the number." Can she beat the Greek? I can't fight. Don't you know if you don't have the ability! ”

"Is that a problem with marriage?" Zhu Wenkui thought about it and found a breakthrough: "It is more reliable to use the system to solve the problem than to rely on personal ability." ”

"Now there is no harem in the strict sense of the word on your side, and there is actually only one 'concubine' on your side. Doesn't that mean a reduction in the number of places? ”

"It's not okay to have more than one slot." Guo Kang denied his idea: "In the earliest days, the purple tent was indeed not a strict monogamy system, but as a result, the female dependents of the major aristocratic families in Greece looked for opportunities to go to the harem to engage in palace fights. ”

"The women of the other tribes could not fight them, and after a long time, the palace was still full of Greeks. Moreover, that kind of scene is more terrifying than it is now. Guo Kang said: "After they squeezed out all the 'barbarian women', they began the daily infighting in Greece." ”

"The infighting among the Greek officials is horrific enough. For the Great Khan, this situation is equivalent to dozens of female officials fighting a civil war in their backyard every day, and the intensity is not comparable to that of Seris's side at all. He shook his head again and again: "People who don't have a good psychological quality can't hold on." ”

"To avoid this situation, it is not something that the harem system can solve, but it has to be stipulated that Greek ladies are not allowed to enter the harem." Guo Kang said: "But in this case, the Greek nobles and officials should be unhappy, and feel that they treat people differently." We can't really mess with them, you see, what should we do......"

“……”

Zhu Wenkui imagined the scene at that time and decided not to mention it.

"Now, although the Greek noblewomen still have their own circles, this kind of 'noblewoman society' is much larger and loosely organized, but it is much better." Guo Kang said: "And in this way, it is also more friendly to those Ross county lords or something." After all, people also have their own family identities and official positions, and they can't be directly squeezed out like in the harem. ”

"So you see, it's already a relatively benign state now......" he sighed: "At least the relationship between the queen and the queen is not bad now, and the queen and the queen have not fought......

"Then I think about what else I can do." Zhu Wenkui thought for a moment again.

"Oh, yes. I heard that the Purple Horde also adopted Mongol customs. In different places, there are different 'ears', that is, the palace. Each ear had a Kedun, and a variable number of other concubines. Each Kedun can theoretically be regarded as a queen. ”

"How did you suddenly become like this? Even the side concubine is gone? He asked curiously, "The Greek master only said that this was a doctrine or something, and did not give a specific reason." ”

"Can this system help?" Jeanne didn't seem convinced.

"It's better than nothing." Zhu Wenkui said: "You see, if there is still a palace in the Rus region, which is only allowed to recruit Rus' women, then it can guarantee that there will be at least one Roth Ködun, and it will not be killed by Greek women." If something really happens, she can use her name to suppress the Greeks. Isn't that okay? ”

"But isn't this the habit of the steppe people, and it belongs to the customs of the Hu people?" Jeanne didn't seem to like it very much: "You can't learn this, right?" ”

"You all believe in God's religion, and tell me about the customs of the Hu people." Zhu Wenkui reached out and grabbed Jeanne's face and pinched it in retaliation: "Look what you look like?" Hu people look like Huaxia better than you, okay......"

"Oh and poof, it's a blessing—" Jeanne argued as she tried to break free.

"And I found that there are too few Han generals on your side." He noted: "You also accompanied the Greeks in monogamy? That's a loss, isn't it? ”

"If you want me to say, the harem is the orthodox Chinese system, and if you are not accustomed to the water and soil here, it should also be that there is a problem with the details of the institutional arrangement, and what you need to do is not to abolish it directly, but to find learned people and slowly supplement and improve it."

"Poof, poof......" Jeanne was still struggling as she hurriedly denied it.

She has more strength than Zhu Wenkui, but Zhu Wenkui is older and taller after all, and his arms are longer than her. Although he suffered a loss last time, he came clearly prepared this time and made full use of his advantages.

Jeanne fluttered for a long time, but couldn't reach his face, so she had to break his hand hard. But Zhu Wenkui just didn't let go, and the two sides fell into a stalemate for a while.

"Don't fight, don't fight......" Guo Kang had no choice but to fight again.
