So, is this world really fair?
Duan Dingbang, as the son of the general of the dynasty, could not only learn some ways of using military force, but also had access to various military books.
But what about those children from ordinary people’s families?
What do they have? What do they have access to?
My child, tell me for yourself, is this world fair?"
Liu Mingzhi narrowed his eyes and was silent for a moment, then turned to look at Mrs. Liu, smiled bitterly and sighed.
"Mother, hahaha, haha... ugh..."
"Zhi'er, besides Duan Dingbang, let's talk about Xie Yun.
Since the marriage between Yiyi and Xie Yun was finalized, you directly gave Xie Yun the position of inspector of the Imperial Guard.
Lieutenant of the Imperial Guard, an official position starting from the sixth rank.
Those well-educated people who worked hard for ten years and became famous all over the world in one fell swoop, what kind of official positions were awarded to them after they passed the imperial examination and passed the gold medal list?
Except for the top three Jinshi scholars, the number one scholar, the second best scholar, and Tanhua Lang, most of the Jinshi scholars are only seventh-grade officials.
One sentence of yours is equivalent to ten years of hard work for others!
Why don't you reward someone with the position of school inspector instead of giving it to this kid Xie Yun?
After all, isn't it because Xie Yun is the son of your old subordinate Xie Qingtong and your future son-in-law Liu Mingzhi?
This kid Xie Yun started out as a sixth-rank official.
But other people's children may work hard all their lives to reach the end, but they may not be able to reach the starting position of Xie Yun.
Silly boy, where is the fairness? Where is the fairness?"
Young Master Liu frowned and was silent for a long time. He looked down at the sandalwood box in his hand with a melancholy expression.
"Yes, where is the fairness?"
"Zhi'er, since the Three Emperors ruled the world and the Five Emperors established their relationships, until this dynasty.
There is never any absolute fairness in this world.
Therefore, you don't have to worry about Qingrui girl at all.
Not to mention, I feel that I have wronged Girl Qingrui, or even felt sorry for Girl Qingrui.
Yes, you did delay girl Qingrui's youth for several years because of some considerations of your own.
However, you have not completely delayed the feelings of this girl Qingrui!
You gave her a promise, a promise that one day, you would marry her openly and marry her in a grand manner with eight carriages.
In other words, you gave Qingrui a promise that she could fly from an ordinary woman to a phoenix, which is enough to make her reach the sky in one step."
Mr. Liu suddenly stopped in his steps and looked at Mrs. Liu with a complicated expression.
"Mother, what you said is biased.
What kind of character Qingrui girl is, I know very clearly in my heart.
Baby, I can tell you with absolute certainty that Rui'er has never cared about whether she would become a noble concubine."
Seeing the eldest son stop, Mrs. Liu also stopped immediately.
"Don't care?"
Young Master Liu raised his brows slightly, nodded without hesitation and said, "Yes, I understand her character. She has never cared about such things."
Mrs. Liu stared at Young Master Liu indifferently for a moment, then reached out to take the wine bag in his hand, raised her head and drank a few sips of the wine, then sat on the flower bed behind her with her skirt held up.
"Silly boy, I am telling you these things for my mother's sake, not because I have any objections to this silly girl Qingrui.
In my mother's heart, I have already regarded her as one of my daughters-in-law.
Put her in the same position as Yun'er girl, Yan'er girl, Xiaoxi girl, Wanyan girl, Qingshi girl...their sisters.
As you just said, Qingrui girl has never cared about whether she would become one of the noble concubines of the dynasty.
As a mother, I know this very well.
Not only Qingrui, but also Yun'er, Ya'er, Junyao and other sisters will not care about these things."
Young Master Liu's eyes lit up, he swung his clothes behind him and sat on the flower bed with a smile.
"Mother, since your heart is like a clear mirror and everything is clear to you, why do you bring up such a thing?"
Mrs. Liu glanced at Young Master Liu lightly, drank her drink and shook her head gently.
"Smelly boy."
"The child is here, mother?"
"Silly boy, does it mean that if the sisters don't care about these things, then the facts really don't exist?
You have been sitting in that position for more than seven years, and this girl Yun'er has never been officially appointed as the queen of the palace.
Similarly, you did not officially consecrate Yan'er as the Queen of the West Palace, nor did you consecrate Ya'er as one of the imperial concubines of the current dynasty.
However, after the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty met Yun'er girl, Yan'er and their sisters.
Which one of them didn't bow respectfully and salute, saying "Queen, the Queen, a thousand years old, the Imperial Concubine, a thousand years old?"
Qingrui girl doesn't care about this, isn't she one of the noble concubines of the dynasty?
She is obsessed with you and doesn't care about the so-called status issue at all.
However, do others dare to look down on her because she doesn't care about her identity?
You tell me, look at the whole world, who dares to despise the identity and status of their sisters."
"This this……"
Mrs. Liu looked at her eldest son's troubled expression, raised the wine bag and took a few sips of the wine, then stuffed the wine bag back into Young Master Liu's hand with a smile.
"Silly boy, you don't have to care about the status of their sisters, and the sisters themselves don't have to care about the status of their sisters.
But you can't care less about others.
Although their sisters may not care, it does not mean that their status really does not exist.
According to the regulations of the imperial court, the imperial concubine and empress should have the same rank as a senior official.
In terms of title, she has the same honors as the eldest princess, prince and concubine of the current dynasty.
In addition to you, the king of a country, the two queens in the East and West harem, and the Crown Princess in the East palace.
In the whole world, the imperial concubine has the most noble status.
After several years of waiting, she soared into the sky and became the royal concubine of the current dynasty.
For my mother's sake, I think that even if we look at the whole world, no woman should be able to refuse her, right?"
"Mom, I actually understand what you said."
Mrs. Liu waved her hand directly and looked at Young Master Liu kindly.
"Yes, actually, brat, you understand everything in your heart.
Including the words I just said, you should have thought about it many times, right?"
When Liu Mingzhi heard this, he was silent for a while with a complicated expression, then nodded with a wry smile.
"Well, that's right."
"Silly boy, as a mother, I still say what I said before. What I said just now is not because I have any objection to Qingrui girl.
I just hope you can understand that you don't owe Qingrui anything.
The most important thing about children's love is that they are happy with each other.
You are willing, I am willing, this is a good match.
As for some other things, do they really matter?"
