Chapter 262 Things change
The wise king was furious for a while, and thought about it in his heart for a long time. He couldn't help but sneered: "You brothers are better than brothers. It's a pity that such days will never happen again. It's time for you to kill each other. I'll just sit back and watch." Fight, when the time is right, even without the help of the Jiang family, I can still accomplish great things."
Not to mention how the wise king deployed and planned, it is just that at this time, Prince Anle's palace was relieved because the crisis for the prince had passed.
That was all for the prince. Shen Qiujun thought of the situation that the originally prosperous Jiang family had fallen into because of Jiang Jianping. He couldn't help but deeply feel the importance of raising and educating children, so he said to the sixth prince: "In the future, we should really discipline our children and grandchildren. Even if you are a mediocre person, you must be a decent person and abide by the principles of filial piety and teaching and the principles of monarch and minister."
The Sixth Prince looked at Brother Zhen who was swaying in Shen Qiujun's arms, nodded and said: "You should teach him a lesson, otherwise a disgraced descendant like Jiang Jianping won't need anyone else to do anything, I will kill him first."
Shen Qiujun thought for a while and said: "I think we should draw up some family rules so that future generations can follow them since childhood. A filial son will emerge from the stick. If you don't obey, you will be taught a lesson."
The Sixth Prince snatched Brother Zhen out of Shen Qiujun's arms. He ignored Brother Zhen's crying and said with a smile: "This is a great idea, but it is too complicated. I am impatient to do it. Besides, This period of time is really stressful. I have to recuperate, so why don’t you come up with one first?"
Without waiting for Shen Qiujun to speak again, the sixth prince picked up his son and walked out, scolding him: "At a young age, I know that I am tired of being in a woman's arms. From now on, I will not be able to grow into a perverted embryo. The whole family is a nuisance."
Brother Zhen was only three or four months old, so he couldn't understand. He suddenly left his mother's arms and couldn't help but burst into tears. Shen Qiujun was so distressed that he had to ask the nanny to follow him, while raising his voice: "How old is he? You must be too impatient."
The Sixth Prince responded vaguely: "My sons are naturally very smart. It's not too early for education now."
Shen Qiujun always felt that there was a faint cry of his son in his ears. He was originally thinking about how to formulate a charter to teach his children and grandchildren, but now he still has no emotions, but because he proposed it himself, he must have an explanation. After thinking hard for a while, he hurriedly wrote a few sentences, then went out to find the sixth prince, thrust the family rules into his arms, and hurriedly snatched his son away. He saw Brother Zhen choked with tears and his face was red. .I felt distressed for a while, and hurriedly whispered comfort.
The sixth prince said from the side: "You are too careful. The imperial doctor has said that it is good for the child's health to cry more."
Shen Qiujun ignored him and only coaxed his son softly.
The Sixth Prince waited for Shen Qiujun to put his son to sleep, and then he smiled again and said, "You were the one who said you wanted to write a family rule. In the past half day, you just wrote this one to make things perfunctory."
Shen Qiujun was so angry that the sixth prince made his son cry. He didn't know how to persuade him and kept making sarcastic remarks. Then he said angrily: "Of course, these family rules need to be drawn up slowly and carefully. How can they just slap the head on the head?" This can be regarded as an introduction to the matter. You are the head of the family, so you should naturally make other decisions."
The sixth prince then said: "You have made up your mind to let me be this evil person. 'All descendants of my lineage must manage their homes carefully. They are not allowed to be greedy for money and lust, and are not allowed to take concubines. Only those who are over forty and have no children can take concubines.'" My descendants will curse me to death. Besides, many of our descendants will receive titles in the future. According to the laws of our court, they can have several official concubines."
Shen Qiujun glanced at the sixth prince and sneered: "Dianfa only said that you can take in concubines, but it doesn't mean that you must take in concubines. According to you, as a county prince, you can take in four concubines. Do you also want to imitate the prince?" Does the wise king have to fill up all these titles?"
The sixth prince smiled and paid tribute, and said: "Educate your son, you are so shameful to me, I don't want my life, and you still dare to think about taking a concubine."
Seeing him like this, Shen Qiujun felt a little embarrassed. He also laughed, took the family rules, and added a few more sentences. The sixth prince shouted at the side: "'Teacher, follow the rules, and the superior will do it. , as a result, if there is an old person who does not respect his children and takes concubines, his descendants can expel him. Is this family rule of yours aimed at the children and grandchildren, or at me?"
Shen Qiujun smiled and didn't answer, and went to the side yard to watch brother Song Ge'er studying, leaving the sixth prince alone scratching his head and ears over the family rules.
Shen Qiujun saw that her husband, who had always been as smart as Zhuge Liang, was having a hard time getting along, and because it was a harmless matter, he insisted on asking the sixth prince to draw up family rules for fun.
The sixth prince was impatient to do such things, and the couple had fun for a few days. When Shen Qiujun lost interest, the sixth prince went to Wang Qing, who had become the minister of the Ministry of Rites, and asked him to help draw up a copy.
Wang Qing was a bit of a pedantic scholar at first, so after receiving this request, he praised the sixth prince for his good management of the family, and at the same time he wrote out a large page of family rules and precepts.
The sixth prince looked at it and couldn't help but frowned. If future generations really follow these rules, wouldn't they all become idiots? He thought he was extremely smart, but this descendant became a fool. After his death, he will be in the underworld. It’s shameless too.
So the Sixth Prince made drastic cuts with a stroke of his pen. Shen Qiujun asked Shen Hou and his wife for advice, added a few items, and finally drafted a copy.
The emperor had also been feeling flustered recently. He heard about this incident somehow and found it very interesting, so he called the sixth prince to take a closer look at the family rules.
In fact, they were just a few common rules for teaching their children and grandchildren. It was hard for him and his wife to tinker with them for so long, but there was one rule that stood out.
The emperor pointed to the family rules and said: "The real filial piety is to have prosperous descendants. This concubine is also for the inheritance of incense. This is really inappropriate. It must be Princess Anle's idea."
The sixth prince smiled and said: "Sex is like a steel knife for scraping bones. For the long-term prosperity of the family, it is better to do it less. Besides, it is just a little discipline for the elders. In the future, when the descendants are older, who will do it?" Listen to our noise. After we go west, who can control them when they go to heaven and earth? This is just a warning."
After hearing what the Sixth Prince said, the Emperor couldn't help but think of his sons, who understood the Sixth Prince's painstaking efforts, so he said no more.
However, this incident spread out because of this. Some people laughed at the Sixth Prince's lack of integrity as he only obeyed his wife's orders. Others praised the Sixth Prince for his rigorous family management and the nobility of a scholarly official family. Some even heard about the Sixth Prince's The family rules were ghostwritten by Wang Qing, and everyone hurriedly asked Wang Qing to help formulate the family rules and mottos.
Li Yaoqin was also moved when she heard about it, and she discussed the family rules with Lin Jingzhou with great interest. This was also her intention. No matter how loving a couple is, it will eventually turn into family affection and become dull. When she gets old and loses her beauty, If a lively and beautiful girl appears, the chance of a relationship crisis will be greatly increased, so it is better to take advantage of the strong relationship between the two and, like Shen Qiujun, put forward the discipline of concubinage for those who have no children.
Lin Jingzhou, however, was puzzled by the custom and scolded: "The Sixth Prince has always been eccentric and unsociable, how can we imitate him? Besides, if he left the palace and built a palace, he would have established his own business, and we have parents above us and elders in the clan, so this family rule has already been established
That’s it, why should we do anything extra?”
Li Yaoqin made a fuss. Although she was a little discouraged, she still said: "We have quietly decided in private that we will only restrain our own children. We can do whatever the family likes. I trust them."
Lin Jingzhou shook his head and said: "This is inappropriate. Since it is a family rule, it should be upright. How can there be any sneakiness? In the future, I will take over the position of clan leader. How can a clan have two clan rules? What about the so-called not taking concubines?
Family rules are really not suitable to be implemented in the clan. Nowadays, if any elder in the clan does not have a concubine, this rule
Now that the rules have come down, where do you want them to put their old faces? Although I promised you not to take concubines anymore, but if I said it clearly, wouldn't it mean that I would force those two people across the courtyard to death? They followed me anyway, and they are still the same now.
It's pitiful, we can't deny them a way to survive, and it's unfair to our descendants, so there's no need to mention this matter again."
Li Yaoqin saw that what her husband said made sense, but why other time-traveling women could always persuade their husbands to make a family rule against taking concubines. When it came to her, there were various reasons why she couldn't do it. It had to be said that she was unlucky.
To the extreme, Lin Jingzhou was really too realistic. Compared with the Sixth Prince's infatuation, he was not even a star or a half behind.
Just when everyone was making a fuss about the family rules, the prince finally returned with all his ministers.
Maybe it was because he had experienced too many things during this period, or maybe it was because the prince had enlightened something in the mountains and rivers of heaven and earth. In short, after he came back, everyone obviously felt that the prince seemed to have grown a lot and behaved like a king.
He is dignified and steady, and he does not mess around with his concubines, and he respects the Crown Princess even more than before.
When the emperor and the ministers saw the change in the prince, they all thought to themselves: After all, he was young before, so he acted impetuously. Now it is time to become more serious. If he changes from now on, it will be a blessing to the great Qi and the people.
The Sixth Prince didn't pay much attention to this, but he also clearly felt that the Crown Prince was closer to him than before, and the Crown Princess was getting closer to Shen Qiujun. This was really beyond his expectation, and it also made him feel a little uncomfortable.
So right.
He was a very suspicious person, so he immediately ordered people to thoroughly investigate the process of the crown prince's conferment, but nothing suspicious was found. After thinking about it, the sixth prince thought that he was just being suspicious, and maybe it was the prince's real enjoyment during the process of conferring Zen.
He has the dignity of an emperor, so be extra grateful for everything you have done for him.
At this time, a piece of news came from the east, which immediately attracted everyone's attention. The sixth prince temporarily put his thoughts aside and turned to the new events in front of him: the sixth prince's half-brother Chen Anzheng defeated the big brother.
The Donglin Kingdom supported by Qi,
She became the head of the Donglin Kingdom, and the former Queen Chen of Daqi's Concubine Rong became the Empress Dowager of the Donglin Kingdom. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes.
