There is one thing that must be out of necessity. Waiting for the moment when most people cannot accept it, and then another fierce person stands up, and the old customs and rules will definitely be changed.
For today's aristocratic women, they don't want to go to their husband's house alone. They need several sisters to go there together. Not to mention joining forces to escape from the inner house to control all the power of their husband's family, they just have a place to chat and relieve boredom.
The people are pretty good.
Because of Zhi Yao's "soul travel" and her family environment, it seems that she has nothing to talk about with Fen Ying.
What if in modern times? As a man, you have to find something to talk to even if you have nothing to say, so as to prevent women from being very uncomfortable. Don't mention the sustainable development in the future. If you meet once, there is probably no possibility of seeing each other again.
An engaged couple, plus a few bonus ladies, their way of getting along is very contemporary.
During the whole process, the girls were chattering in various ways. When they asked some questions and saw that Zhiyao had no intention of answering, they would proactively change the topic again, which would not cause an awkward situation anyway.
Zhiyao learned about the names of the four nuns. They were Bi, Ming, Hao (hào), and Wei.
A concubine is a dowry, destined to be an accessory for the rest of her life, and she will not have the right to be a mother even if she gives birth to a child. A man's wife will be the common mother of all the children, and then distinguish between the first wife and the concubine, the situation is like this.
Zhiyao also learned that two of the four concubines were direct descendants, Bi and Wei. Bi was the daughter of Liang Ying's father, Wei was from Zhao in Handan, and Ming Hehao was the concubine of Zhao Yang.
Nowadays, having a good "name" is one of the benefits of the nobility. It is difficult for other classes, regardless of gender, to have a serious "name". There are even cases where there is no "name", and some are just nicknames or nicknames.
Something like that.
As for the surnames and surnames? There are a lot of people without surnames and surnames. This is the case when they enter the Warring States Period. Even the "martingale" who was highly used in the Qin Dynasty before the reform, his prefixes changed one after another.
He went through several times, and was called "Ming" alone in the Wei State. He was called "Wei Yang" when he left the Wei State. When he became an official in the Qin State, he took the official position as the prefix. It was not until he obtained the fiefdom of "Shang" that he was called "Shang Yang".
Among the concubines of the Zhao family, there is a legitimate daughter of Handan Zhao? There is nothing wrong with this sincerity. Even outsiders will have a different impression of Zhao family because of this. The reason is that Zhao Yang's performance shows that Zhao family still recognizes Handan Zhao as a relative. Later,
Will support Zhao Wu's descendants.
Liang's words? Although they did not obey the Zhao family just like Handan Zhao, Liang's behavior was more subtle. With Liang Ying's father being attacked and killed, Zhao would definitely tighten his control over the Liang family in the future.
During the whole chat, Fen Ying was the one who talked the least, which made Zhiying wonder whether Fen Ying would be able to run a household in the future.
However, Zhiyao knew that her worries were unnecessary. A woman would only be a woman, and no matter how powerful she was, she could only exercise influence through her wife. The wife exerted her power through her husband, which meant that if the husband had a sense of autonomy, the woman would have the right to speak.
That's it.
This was the case with Nanzi of Wei State. She was able to achieve many goals through Wei Linggong; when Wei Jue became the monarch of Wei State, she relied on her grandson's status to exert influence, and there was no way she could come to the forefront.
"Yao will come more often in the future, and Fen can also look for me." Zhi Yao shut up the four women with one look, and then said this to Fen Ying.
Nowadays, there is no great defense between men and women. Before aristocratic men and women had marriage contracts, young men just didn’t like hanging out with young girls, so there was no problem in making friends.
It was already evening, and Zhao Bolu, who had disappeared for a long time, reappeared and invited Zhiyao to a banquet.
There will be no room for Fen Ying and other young girls to show off, which means they will no longer appear in formal banquets.
When Zhiyao came to the banquet venue, the first thing she saw was the constipated expression on her father Zhishen's face.
In fact, it means wearing several layers of clothes, otherwise you would definitely see traces of sweat on Jishen's back.
As a son, Zhiyao would not laugh at his father, let alone have the thought that "his father is really useless".
Each one has its own shortcomings and advantages. Similarly, not everyone can talk and laugh with everyone. Some people are just not good at socializing. It’s just that they have a lot of psychological pressure when dealing with people who have too strong aura. It doesn’t mean that they can’t display their talents in other aspects.
own advantages.
Zhao Yang is the current head of a large family and the central military commander of the Jin Kingdom. The main thing is that his aura is too aggressive. People with the same status will find it uncomfortable to get along with him. Zhizhuo can still handle it because of his high status.
, Wei Chi and Han Buxin, who are of the same status, will also be suppressed by Zhao Yang, let alone Zhishen, who is the second generation?
Everyone sat down separately.
Zhi Yao followed Zhishen's actions and was ranked second, directly opposite Zhao Huo.
Zhao Yang is sitting on the raised platform, so the main seat must be his.
The crown prince, Zhao Bolu, is sitting first on the right, and second is Zhao Huo, a core member of the Zhao family. The following are ranked according to family status.
To the left of Zhiyao is Zhishen, to the right is Fuguo, and behind them are also the core people from the Zhi clan.
"I am very happy to have such a good son-in-law. Everyone, please drink from a bottle together!" Zhao Yang started the banquet.
The nature of tonight's meal has been decided, and we will only talk about the friendship between the Zhao family and the Zhi family. Any other controversial matters should not be mentioned by anyone tonight, as mentioning them will only cause trouble.
At the scene, the drinking utensils used by Zhao Yang, Zhao Bolu, Zhishen and Zhiyao were all "jue", while the others used "zhan", "spoon", "zhi" and so on.
To put it bluntly, the tableware used is different depending on the status, which is the same reason why Zhao Yang can use a tripod to hold food, but others are temporarily unqualified.
Zhao Yang is the "Qing" of the Jin Kingdom with a higher rank than the princes. Unless Zhishuo, Wei Chi or Han Buxin are present, otherwise the others, including Zhishen, who is destined to become "Qing" but is not "Qing" for the time being, will
Not qualified for "Ding Shi".
Zhiyao, one of today's protagonists, stood up with the wine cup in his hand and said: "It is a blessing for Yao to have such a good relationship. I would like to take this 'zun' to salute you all!"
The wine from Lao Zhao's house is a bit bitter, and it seems to have a higher alcohol content than the wine outside?
Zhao Yang, who was sitting in the main seat, was watching Zhiyao, the prospective son-in-law, throughout the whole process. It was good to see that he was in a convenient mood.
In fact, that’s right. If you have a daughter, you are destined to be the father-in-law. Who doesn’t want to have an excellent son-in-law?
Zhiyao, who is only fifteen years old, has already used her grades to prove her excellence, and is even far better than most adults.
Not to mention nonsense, how many people in the Jin Kingdom can lead the army to fight with the princes and achieve a record of three victories in three battles?
Zhiyao fought against the coalition of princes twice, and won both times. In one of them, he saved Zhao Yang from defeat.
What had the greatest impact was when Zhiyao led his army to attack Qi, successfully captured "Linzi" and plundered the ritual vessels.
If Zhiyao is not from Jin, or is not from the Zhi family, actually capturing "Linzi" and plundering a country's ritual vessels are not a good thing. The reason is of course that if you can succeed once, you may not be able to carry it.
The subsequent revenge of the Qi State.
The banquet of Lao Zhao's family must show the heritage of a long-standing family, which can be reflected from the utensils at the banquet, and then the high quality displayed by the servants.
The Laozhi family is also a family with a long history and will give back in various rituals.
When members of the two families are having a conversation, they can hear a lot of "quotes from scriptures", usually quoting from the Book of Songs, and then expressing a certain allusion to express what they want to say.
That's it, when I go to some special occasions, I don't know what others are talking about because I haven't read the book, so I can only sit on the sidelines in a daze, not knowing what to say if I want to say anything.
Zhiyao encountered the same situation more than once during her exchanges with Confucius.
Others only did that on special occasions, but Confucius would always quote scriptures regardless of the occasion. As a result, others need to have a certain degree of literary literacy to chat with Confucius, otherwise they will not be able to chat at all.
Many times Zhiyao would compare Laozi with Confucius, wondering why Laozi, who was more literary, didn't have that problem. Later, she realized that Laozi didn't want to create a character, but Confucius was different.
"Bolu is going to lead the army to go on an expedition." Zhao Yang mentioned the Zhao family's military action against 'Wen'.
When Zhiyao heard this, he thought to himself: "Sure enough, he would mention this."
The civil war in the Jin Kingdom has reached its final stage. Unsurprisingly, the Fan family and the Zhonghang family have no possibility of successful counterattack. They are qualified to share the Fan family. Each family of the Zhonghang family is trying to gain victory as quickly as possible.
fruit.
Although the defeat of the Fan family and the Zhonghang family is doomed, it does not mean that they have completely lost their ability to resist. If anyone is "kicked", there is no telling how much damage will be caused, and it is inevitable that they will be laughed at by other families.
Zhiyao pretended to be listening attentively, but had no intention of saying more.
Zhao Yang gave Zhao Bolu a "division" of troops. According to the intelligence they had, "Wen's" resistance strength should be around 4,000.
"Wen" has a long history. It was run by the Que family nearly a hundred years ago, but Que developed "Wen" and once became one of the largest granaries in the Jin Dynasty.
Later, the Luan family set up a trap to eliminate the Que family. The Fan family suffered heavy losses when they attacked "Wen" and then captured it. Later, "Wen" became one of Fan's fiefs.
Now, Zhao Bolu only has one "division" of troops, responsible for attacking the "Wen" area with at least 4,000 defenders?
A city offensive and defensive battle is definitely more beneficial to the defender. Generally, the attacker must have five times the number of defenders to be suitable for siege.
Zhao Yang looked at Zhi Yao and asked, "How does Yao think Bo Lu should get it?"
Just say it!
I first asked for my opinion, and I was determined to ask Zhiyao to go with Zhao Bolu. No matter what Zhiyao said, Zhao Yang would be able to find a reason.
Zhiyao already has a reputation for being good at fighting. If he can't express his opinion, he will be ruining his reputation.
After Zhao Yang mentioned "Wen" in the hall where the banquet was held, the people there consciously stopped talking.
This simply made one thing clear. They knew what topics Zhao Yang would mention at the banquet and what his purpose was.
Zhiyao was having a brainstorm and needed to come up with an at least reliable explanation that could help him get out.
