Wang Li doesn't like women with small feet, and he doesn't want "Qin Huai Seven Uniques" and Zhu Huijiao to be wrapped into small feet, but he has a weak heart!

Because, the "Qin Huai Seven Uniques" have not appeared so far, and I don't know where they are!

Zhu Huijiao lives in the palace and is carefully taken care of by Queen Zhou, whether she will wrap her little feet or not, it is up to her to decide!

At this moment, there is no power and position to oppose it!

In Wang Li's view, from the Southern Song Dynasty to the end of the Ming Dynasty now, the popularity of women's foot-binding is due to the morbid preference of literati!

Just like Su Shi's "Bodhisattva Man" in the Song Dynasty and Tang Yin's "Song of Slender Feet" in the Ming Dynasty, the morbid beauty of the foot-bound woman is admired to the extreme!

In this kind of atmosphere, it is almost difficult to marry without a woman with small feet!

However, Wang Li is very curious!

Why didn't Zhao Qian and Liu Ruyan wrap their little feet?

This question seems to poke at Liu Ruyan's sore spot!

Make her unspeakable!

hid his big feet tightly and said in a low voice: "The concubine has no slender feet, just because her parents died early, she has been fostered in the second uncle's house since she was a child;

The second aunt was already frail and sickly, and after the death of the second uncle, the family was so poor that they couldn't open the pot, how could they have the conditions to wrap the concubine's body! ”

"I'll go! What's so good about small feet? The road is unsteady!

If the Eight Banners attacked, those women with small feet would not even have a chance to escape!

So, you should be glad! ”

Wang Li's comfort failed to eliminate Liu Ruyan's regrets!

Until now, she is still beautiful with "slender feet" and ashamed of her big feet!

No way!

For hundreds of years, the understanding of "slender feet for beauty" and "three-inch golden lotus" has been deeply rooted and has long been branded in everyone's heart!

It's impossible to say that change just changes!

Asked why Zhao Qian didn't bind her feet, Liu Ruyan shook her head.

In this era, feet are a woman's privacy, and everyone avoids them!

There's no way she's going to inquire about other people's privacy!

If you want to know, you can only ask Zhao Qian herself!

In fact, every woman hopes that she is a "three-inch golden lotus", but it often backfires!

Only women who have a good family background and whose mother or grandmother are still alive will deliberately choose this day on August 24 to bind the daughter's feet for the first time!

is like the second aunt's family, so poor that she can't open the pot, how can she have the money to buy wraps and sleeping shoes? ”

After thinking about it carefully, Liu Ruyan's words are not unreasonable!

The best starting age for foot wrapping is around four years old.

This wrap will take several years!

Long-term maintenance costs are also a lot of expenses!

As the saying goes, "a pair of small feet, a jar of tears"!

For a woman from a poor family, it is not a kind of luck to not be able to wrap it into a three-inch golden lotus?

No, in this day and age, it's not lucky!

Such a woman may not be able to marry for the rest of her life, and she will not be able to raise her head for the rest of her life!

Thinking about it this way, the Mongolian women and Jurchen women in the north are the luckiest!

I thought of Hai Lanzhu who didn't have her feet, I thought of Yehenala who didn't have my feet, and I thought of the little baby that Liu Ruyan wanted to buy!

"By the way, that little girl named Yang Ai, did she have her feet?"

"Nope!"

Liu Ruyan's answer was very affirmative: "The first time the concubine saw her was in the "homecoming courtyard" in Wujiang;

She should have been resold many times before that;

Although she is handsome, all the bustards who bought her want to make quick money, and it is impossible to wrap her feet in a few years! ”

Wang Li nodded and continued to ask, "After she was bought by Yixianglou, will Aunt Su help her wrap her little feet?"

It can be seen that Aunt Su really wants to train her to be an Oiran!

No, you can't even give up this money, right? ”

"No, it won't!" Liu Ruyan shook her head and said with great certainty: "Because, her virtual age is already fifteen, and she has long passed the best age for binding her feet!"

Moreover, Yixianglou is a hook fence, not a prostitution!

Aunt Su positioned her as a courtesan, not a prostitute!

So, she doesn't need to wrap her little feet! ”

Oh, yes, Yang Ai's little baby is not a prostitute!

Another lucky girl!

It seems that there are not many courtesans, maikos, and music prostitutes who come out of the school to wrap their feet!

In this way, the high-end Qinglou is indeed different from the prostitution in the market!

I only hope that the "Qinhuai Seven Uniques" from the Teaching Workshop Division and the Qinglou in the workshop can also be so lucky!

However, Zhu Huijiao in the palace, what should she do?

According to the temperament of the people in the palace, she will definitely be wrapped in a "exquisite" three-inch golden lotus!

Something has to be done to stop it!

But where can we stop it?

It is said that after the Qing army entered the customs in history, Emperor Shunzhi issued a ban: anyone who entered the palace with bound feet would be beheaded.

A few years later, Emperor Shunzhi issued another ban: anyone who resists the decree and binds his feet will be exiled to 3,000 li with 80 rods from his father or husband.

Later, Emperor Kangxi also reiterated the ban many times, but he failed to stop the wind of foot binding of women in the market!

On the contrary, many banner women also followed the example of Han women and secretly wrapped their little feet!

No way!

In this era, it is to respect the three-inch golden lotus!

Especially "The Golden Vase of Plums", as well as many sick literati and ink writers!

No way!

The small feet in this era are just like the double eyelid cutting, rhinoplasty, liposuction and waist slimming in later generations!

It has become an aesthetic culture!

Relying on one's own strength to confront the aesthetic that is universally recognized by the whole society is undoubtedly futile!

There is no way but to think of a way slowly!

I don't care about anyone else!

At least, Zhu Huijiao can't wrap her little feet!

Fortunately, she has just turned one year old and should still be a toddler!

There's still time!

……

In Sun Yuanhua's view, he will definitely die!

Before returning to Beijing, he even wrote a suicide note!

It is estimated that the family has prepared the coffin!

Unexpectedly, after a few days in the edict prison of Fusi in Xichang North Town, no one came to interrogate, let alone execute!

A few days later, he also changed into clean clothes and was taken to Xiuchun Building by Jinyiwei!

I have long heard that the interrogation method of Xichang is special, but I have never seen such a strange interrogation!

Actually, there is nothing to hide!

You don't have to waste time asking whatever you want!

You don't need to be tortured, and you don't need beauty tricks, I confess them all!

Just ask for a good time!

"Your Excellency, are you guilty?"

Wang Li raised the wine bowl, and the clouds were light and the wind was light.

Sun Yuanhua didn't dare to raise the bowl, swallowed his saliva, and sighed in a low voice: "The offender is guilty, he is guilty!"

Someone has long reminded me that the Shandong soldiers and the Liaodong soldiers are not on good terms;

Someone also reminded me that Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming must not be entrusted with a big responsibility!

I didn't pay attention to these reminders!

At the beginning of the Confucian Rebellion, I shouldn't have been lucky!

Yu Dacheng shouldn't be allowed to stand still!

The hole thief sits big, it's all my fault!

Yu Dacheng was tired by me, and Zhang Dake also died because of me!

More than a dozen cities have fallen, hundreds of thousands of people have been displaced, a large number of soldiers have been killed in battle or thrown into thieves, and a large number of grain, grass and military salaries have been taken away, all of which are my fault!

The prisoners, all pleaded guilty!

I also ask the factory to intercede with the emperor and pardon all the generals under his command!

They were all on command!

Please don't blame them! ”

Sun Yuanhua did not hide it and took all the blame himself.

Just ask for a good time!

However, Wang Li smiled faintly and shook his head: "Your culpability, the factory will find out!"

But, you have one more fault of all!

DID YOU KNOW? ”

Wang Li's question, Sun Yuanhua was naturally confused.

After thinking about it, he calmly replied: "The prisoner didn't hide it!" The offender is really unknown! If there are really other culprits, please make it clear to the factory public! ”

"Lord Governor, you have lived up to the expectations of your mentor Xu Guangqi and the trust of Sun Ge Lao!

Until now, you haven't built a Hongyi cannon!

Isn't this gross negligence? ”

In the face of accusations, Sun Yuanhua wanted to refuse to confess.

After thinking about it, I acquiesced.

The accusation of the factory is actually not wrong!

I advocate Western studies and believe in Catholicism, all of which are influenced by Xu Guangqi!

Studying the Hongyi cannon, I was indeed guided by Xu Guangqi!

I and Xu Guangqi are indeed teachers and friends!

In the first year of Chongzhen, he was able to make a comeback, and he was indeed recommended by Yuan Chonghuan;

Later, he was promoted to the "Secretary of the Ministry of War", and he was able to build a platform and build artillery, which was indeed recommended by Sun Chengzong!

That's right!

However, in order to build the Hongyi cannon, in addition to having a professional gunsmith, you also need enough silver, as well as the close cooperation of multiple departments!

However, not to mention silver, there is not even an iron casting workshop!

How to make a cannon?

After being promoted to the governor of Denglai for more than a year, he failed to build the Hongyi cannon, which is a fact!

However, there are also certain objective reasons!

That's it, that's it!

So many capital crimes have been confessed, and it doesn't matter if there is more!

The wine on the table was drunk in one go.

I was about to pick up the dishes, only to realize that something was wrong!

Isn't this "guillotine wine" and "guillotine rice"?

Why is the factory also eating?

In confusion, Wang Li smiled again: "Lord Governor, there is an opportunity to make meritorious service in front of you!"

I don't know, do you want to? ”

Scold!

Guilty of meritorious service?

Is this possible?

If you can be sentenced to beheading and not be executed by Ling Chi, you will already burn high incense!

"Factory, I've said everything I can say!

All the sins that can be confessed have been confessed!

I only hope that the factory and the emperor can be merciful and don't send the female dependents of my family to the Jiaofang Division! ”

"Yes! I'll give you two years, enough iron, gunpowder, and silver, and enough gunsmiths!

If you can build the cannon I want in two years, it's all well said!

If...... If you can't make a cannon, then ......"

Wang Li didn't continue.

It can be seen that Sun Yuanhua's head is already confused!

No matter what he says, he can't hear it!

Now that the goal has been achieved, it's nonsense!

As soon as he walked out of the door, Li Gao hurriedly greeted him.

"Factory Gong, my subordinates have checked: from the Southern Song Dynasty to the present, the princesses in the palace are all four or five years old with bound feet;

The queens and concubines at all levels of the previous dynasties are basically three-inch golden lotus! ”

"I'll go! What does it mean to be "basically all"? Are there any exceptions? ”

"Yes, there are exceptions!

Emperor Taizu's Empress Ma did not bind her feet!

According to the historian, Queen Ma's parents died early when she was young, she was lonely, and she was adopted as an adopted daughter by Guo Zixing, missing the best age for foot binding;

So, Queen Ma really didn't bind her feet!

After being crowned queen, Queen Ma always wore a slender dress, for fear that her big feet would sweep the royal face! ”

"Are you sure?"

"Sure!"

Li Gao is full of affirmation, Wang Li is really disappointed!

When you think about it, it seems to be a little impressive!

That's right, the famous "Queen of Bigfoot"!

It is because of her advice that ordinary women can wear the queen's special dress when they get married-the phoenix crown and xia veil!

I almost forgot about her!

Alas!

No more fun!

also counted on finding an example of a princess or concubine who did not bind her feet to persuade Queen Zhou not to bind Zhu Huijiao's feet.

This road is probably impassable!

It really can't be helped!

In this era, from the royal family to the common people, they all regard the "three-inch golden lotus" as their beauty, and they are all ashamed of the normal "big feet"!

Alas!

People wrap their little feet, they are pursuing the right to "beauty"!

I really can't appreciate this kind of beauty!

However, it is indeed a good way to "miss the best age" and not be able to wrap your little feet!

Simple and brutal, very effective!

When the time comes, let's use this trick!

Hey!
