Chapter 112: The Dispute of the Concubines

Shatang Village, Baima County.

The four towns of Qingzhou were righteous, and the young general Huang Zhao shouted.

Speaking of Huang Zhao, the merit is at the south gate of Qingzhou. Just when Huang Yi was difficult to support, he held the double whip of the overlord, grabbed the horse and galloped, invincible, and captured several generals in a row.

Xue Ping played the Son of Tomorrow, was awarded the title of Son of Heaven, Pin Yilu was the lieutenant, and was awarded the deputy general of Zhongzhen. The kid is only fourteen years old, and he is truly a teenage hero.

Huang Zhao was in the Pinglu Army, counting the number of days his grandfather went home after the rebellion.

On this day, when he arrived at the Chinese army, Xue Yan finished his order. There was no order to kill, Huang Zhao asked for a leave, took his guards, and went back to Huanglu Village to visit his parents and brothers at home.

A little mention of Xue Yan, because of the Qingzhou battlefield to find the Xinfu Gantz Mountain, he stayed in the Pinglu Army to serve. Because of his military exploits, he was promoted to a ranger general and awarded the history of the governor of Qingzhou. The edict of the Son of Heaven was knighted according to the male general, and he was named the founding man of Lushan County, referred to as Lushan Nan.

The Marshal of the Pinglu Army, Xue Fujiao, the marching General Sima Cen, and the Weixian male Qingzhou General Beijiawang all went to Shatang Village. Xue Ping was about to leave and asked Xue Yan to take charge of the affairs of the Chinese army.

Before Huang Zhao left, Xue Yan gave him some gold beads and ornaments and asked him to hand them over to his grandmother and mother.

Why does Xue Yan also know that Huang Yi has a wife?

Before the Qingzhou Rebellion was pacified, Xue Shangshu promised Huang Yi that after the war, he would remarry a wife. After the big victory, after the four guards stated the battle situation, Mu Yu fought hard, and Huang Yi's combat exploits should be pushed first. Xue Shangshu respected him more and more, and fulfilled his promise to find him a Qingzhou woman as a wife.

Huang Yi refused to obey, Xue Shangshu didn't know why?

After Xue Yan and Yiyun asked Huang Zhao, the young general said that although his father was the eldest son, his grandmother Guan was a concubine. The deceased grandmother, Lee, was the grandfather's wife. This time, the young general will help his grandfather make meritorious contributions, and if he marries someone else as his wife, it will hurt the Guan family too much.

Xue Shangshu learned that he asked Huang Yi to give a banquet to his private residence, and the two talked about their parents' shortcomings.

Xue Shangshu euphemistically said of the Guan family, Huang Yi sighed helplessly: "Just as General Xue said the day before yesterday, the dynasty customized, the wife died, but the concubine and slave maid could not be the wife, and it was necessary to choose another woman from a good family as a wife." I did so, and although it was in accordance with the law, it made the Guan's heart cold. ”

Xue Shangshu was deeply sympathetic and knew it in his heart.

After finishing the next day, I asked Wang Lingtong to write an excerpt on the situation of Huang Yi and Guan, Gu Liangguang and Xue Yan and Yiyun, and submitted it to the Ministry of Rites. Whether they change the imperial marriage system or not, it doesn't matter for the time being, I will make a decision based on the facts of the Lu Army.

Later, the Ministry of Rites replied to the letter. In this matter, the Pinglu Army can be cut separately. If there are detailed regulations, it is called to submit a copy to the Ministry of Gifts, so that the Ministry of Rites can enter the court for discussion. Xue Servant didn't bother to care about him, there was no regulation.

In this way, in the Pinglu Army, due to the battle of Qingzhou to quell the turmoil, in the marriage system, the concubine cannot be the main wife, although it has not been broken, but it can also be flexibly controlled. Before the Son of Heaven made a decree on meritorious deeds, Xue Ping presided over and asked Huang Yi and Guan to marry each other.

In this way, Guan Shi was happy for a while. But when the emperor was sealed, Xue Ping found that if Huang Yi was promoted to another rank, he would be able to be named a baron, and the Guan family would also be sealed. And the deceased wife Li is unlikely to be posthumously sealed.

Although such a thing doesn't matter in Huang Yi's view, among the children, the relationship between the son-in-law and the concubine, once the emperor is sealed, the court talks about it, but it is very different, and it is bound to be entangled. Even if there is a fire between the two, the family will inevitably be in chaos.

No wonder the marriage system is stipulated like that, there are already many lessons from dynasties.

Xue Ping thought about it for a while, and told Huang Yi to take good care of the Guan family, and treat the children and grandchildren in the early stage equally, just as when the Li family was in the past. Huang Yi also thought of this layer, and once gathered the children and grandchildren of the family together to apply for this matter.

Huang Yi gave birth to three sons, Huang Yao, born to Guan, but he was the eldest son. The teenager Huang Zhao is Huang Yao's eldest son. But according to Zong**, his branch is the eldest son, and Huang Zhao is the eldest grandson.

At the beginning, the Li family was sterile, and in order to continue the incense, he took a concubine to Guan Shi, so Huang Zhao is now the eldest grandson. Then Li gave birth to two sons in a row, the second son Huang Zun and the youngest son Huang Tong. When they grew up, they all married wives and had children.

According to the sect, the Li branch is a descendant. In the family tree, Huang Zun is the eldest son, and Huang Tong is the second son. He is the eldest son and the second son.

Although Huang Yao is the oldest, he can only be ranked after Huang Zun and Huang Tong, and he can be seen as a concubine.

If it is not officially born by a concubine, that is, a child born in the outer room, it is ranked after the concubine and called the outer son.

If the Li family is here, once Huang Yi is given a knighthood and a wife, it will naturally be her title. If he is a lord, he must be the eldest son Huang Zun. And Huang Yao, the son of the Guan family, although he is the eldest son, is a concubine, so naturally he will not fight.

Now that Guan is his wife, Huang Yao's status has changed, and he is also a son-in-law. The brothers were sorted again, and he became the eldest son.

If Huang Yi is given a knighthood and a wife, he will naturally become a Guan family and Huang Yao will be knighted.

It's a big difference. It will inevitably lead to family chaos.

Then, the culprit became Xue Ping, who agreed to do so at first, no wonder the Ministry of Rites did not present the Son of Heaven, but gave a letter. Let them Pinglu Army cut off on their own, and ask Pinglu Army to come up with a way, and they will file it. It's clearly a humble remark of disdain.

Such a family situation is exactly similar to the relationship between Yin Di Xin (纣) Zi Shoude and his eldest brother Zi Qi.

Ziqi has three brothers in the same mother, Ziqi is the eldest brother, Zhongyan is in the middle, and Shoude (纣) is the youngest.

When her mother gave birth to her son Qi and Zhongyan, she was still a concubine, and she later gave birth to a concubine after becoming a wife.

The parents wanted to make their eldest son Qi the crown prince, but Taishi argued for this matter according to the legal code, believing that if the son of the main wife was there, the son of the concubine should not be appointed as the prince. Ziqi therefore did not become the heir of the Shang king.

In this way, it also laid the root of the fall of the Shang Dynasty. Later, when Ji Fa did not send troops, Ziqi was already the monarch of the micro country, the viscount. Hence the name neutrino.

The Shang Dynasty was knighted, with many titles, and the largest title was only given to the earl. The Shang Dynasty was made an earl, and his power was so great that all the viscount princes in nearby places had to obey him.

Ji Chang was named Zhou Bo by Emperor Xin because he pretended to be honest, and "Fengshen Bang" called Xibohou, which was written and shouted indiscriminately. Earl and Marquis are two titles, and they cannot be in one person.

Ji Chang became the uncle of Zhou, and according to the regulations of the Yin Dynasty, he had the power to control the western princes, which laid the foundation for rebellion.

Weizi was annoyed with Di Xin, and without waiting for Ji Fa to use troops, he held the sacrificial vessel and secretly surrendered to Zhou Bo.

Now, the situation of Huang Yi's family and the three brothers has also fallen into this predicament.

Huang Yi heard his eldest grandson Huang Zhao talk about things at home, so he naturally knew what was going on?

There is no doubt that Huang Zun will inevitably be instigated, or openly and secretly angry with the Guan family. Huang Tong will also follow Ding Huang Zun, and both of them will become hostile to their eldest son Huang Yao.

If you do it like this, Guan will inevitably be unbearable, and it is strange if he does not hang himself.

Of course, Xue Fushu was very clear, and shook his head and sighed at this time. Knowing this, it is better to let the Guan family continue to be a concubine, and Huang Yi will either not remarry his wife, or marry another woman. There is absolutely no such entanglement.

If something happened to Huang Yi's family, Xue Ping, who was the eldest brother, naturally had to take care of it, and he didn't have to worry about it. And the situation of his family is very different from the situation of Xue Yan and Yiyun. What should I do?

The eldest brother Xue Ping explained the causes and consequences to the second brother Hu Zhen and the fourth brother Cen Jiao one by one. I hope to get a little advice and try to settle the matter of the third brother Huang Yi.

Cen Jiao carried out Gantzshan, one of the eighteen mountain gods, and said how Gantzshan and Xue Yan were in love, but the Gantz family had never heard of such a thing.

Xue Ping saw him say this, and he knew that he was two. Cen Shoushan didn't have to say anything in the battle array, but Yu family politics and national politics were far apart.

Hu Zhen pondered for a long time and said, "Big brother, third brother, fourth brother, you are all here. I said something that shouldn't be said, and I don't know if I should say it or not?"

Huang Yizheng was helpless, and asked eagerly: "Second brother, say quickly, no matter how you deal with it, it should be sooner rather than later." ”

Hu Zhen stroked his beard, dusted off the scarlet robe, and said: "The patriarchal law is the eldest son, and it is still the first iron law. This has become customized in the Xia Dynasty, and the Ji Zhou Dynasty inherited this patriarchal method. The middle Zishang dynasty passed on the throne by the law of brother to brother. The descendants of the younger brother succeeded to the throne, and they were still brothers and brothers.

"This kind of system, in the Zhou Dynasty, the Qin Dynasty, the Han Dynasty and even my Tang Dynasty, why was it not adopted?

"It is because the emperor and queen are competing for being young, the emperor and concubine are fighting for the last child, and the time for the emperor's final death is also stuck. So witchcraft flourished. ”

This system is the strategy of Yi Yin, the holy minister of the Zishang Dynasty. There is nothing wrong with this system, the pursuit of equality, when the emperor of Shang, it is all over again among brothers. In fact, it's all the brothers of the old family. Finally, it's the next generation of old families again. This kind of system is tantamount to the establishment of the Chongyi patriarchal law.

Why do future generations of emperors, including the righteous brothers, never mess with the eldest brother except for not messing with the eldest brother?

As for the family affairs of the third brother, whether it is the descendant of the ex-wife Li or the disciple of the later wife Guan, the original matrilineal patriarchy with the main wife as the descendant line has been changed to the patrilineal patriarchal method with the father marrying the main wife as the descendant, and there is also a brother and a brother. To put it bluntly, the brother is the patriarchal law. The eldest son is the matrilineal patriarchy.

It can be seen that when the emperor is imposing, he looks majestic to the courtiers, but in fact, the placental belt is branded with matriarchal control.

Wu Zetian was able to successfully usurp the throne, didn't he see through this, and became self-reliant on behalf of Tang?

So, in the Shang Dynasty, why there were never accidents such as intermediate usurpation, manipulation by the queen mother, short life of the emperor, dictatorship of foreign relatives, and killing of the emperor by eunuchs, it was because the father had the final say.

The latter emperor can be deposed immediately if he interferes in the government and the succession of the imperial line. However, Xia Zhou's primogeniture system, the emperor was completely out of control. Suppose he was assassinated by the emperor and the queen left behind, and the emperor and queen were all at their disposal.

Bad cycle, as for now. Confucius and Mencius were so incompetent, but they were established as the state religion, which was actually supported by the matrilineal post-party. Therefore, the Confucian and Mencian clans belong to the yin and are harmful to the country.

All the founding of the country and the desperate work are all taught by the soldiers and legalists, and there is no founding emperor who pursues Confucius and Mencius to be called emperors. Gain's soldiers and legalists are all positive.

So much so that the founding of the country as the emperor, the matriarchal lineage without any size is secretly manipulating how to control the foundation of the first emperor. Immediately established Confucius and Mencius as the state religion, so that the mother party would win. Therefore, Confucianism is endless.

After Hu Zhen said this, Huang Yi's heart suddenly brightened. The change in Hu Zhen's opinion is by no means just a simple effort to help the army.

So, did Huang Yi find a solution to the dispute between his Huang family?
