Chapter 307: jealous first

  Chapter 307 Jealous of the first person

  The **** sent by the emperor read the imperial edict to Fang Xuanling's wife, Lu Shi, in the main hall of Liang Guogong's mansion in front of Lu Chengzong and other Lu's family.

   "Those beauties were rewarded by the Holy Majesty to Zuo Pushe as a concubine. If the wife refuses to accept it, she will be given poisonous wine!"

   As he spoke, the **** waved, and an attendant brought a silver pot.

  The silver jug ​​is beautifully sealed, but the words Jinshajiu are written on the outside of the silver jug.

  Gold flakes wine is a highly poisonous wine that was widely used in the Jin Dynasty. It was also a poisonous wine given by ancient emperors to ministers to commit suicide.

  The nobleman drank gold chips, and suddenly lost the British dusk.

  Gold is a precious thing, and death by drinking gold shavings wine is considered a way of death in line with the status of noble ministers. But it must be better than swallowing a large piece of gold directly.

  Looking at the silver bottle of golden wine, Lu showed disdain.

  Lu Chengzong stood up with a gloomy face. He flicked the sleeves of his toga and said angrily, "Is this really the emperor's decree?"

  The inner **** smiled sinisterly, "Our family is just a small **** serving the province, how dare we pass on the holy edict?"

   "This is just a small matter in Liang Guogong's mansion. The emperor is too lenient, isn't it?" a Lu family child shouted.

  The **** was not afraid, "Fan Yang Lu is known as the heir of the three rites, why did he say such a thing, don't you know that there are seven rules for women, and jealousy is the fourth?"

  Seven outs are the seven reasons for a man to divorce his wife. As long as a woman violates one of these seven rules, a man can unconditionally divorce his wife and drive him out. The fourth rule of jealousy refers to the fact that a woman is very jealous, and the reason for divorce is family disorder. Society believes that a wife's fierce jealousy will cause family discord, and a wife's jealousy of her husband's concubinage is even more harmful to the continuation of the family.

Therefore, in the society of the Tang Dynasty, although the status of the big woman was extremely protected and the concubines were unshakable, the big woman was not qualified to prevent her husband from taking concubines, otherwise she would be guilty of the "seven rules of jealousy". A husband can directly divorce his wife.

  Of course, most families don’t have the conditions to accept concubines. Those who can afford to accept concubines are noble officials and powerful officials. In the era of well-connected families, the wives of wealthy nobles are naturally rich.

Women in the Tang Dynasty would bring a dowry when they got married, and the law stipulated that this dowry belonged to the woman’s private property. Even if she died, this property was left to her children. dowry.

  Of course, the social atmosphere in the Tang Dynasty was open, especially since the Northern Dynasties, Hu Feng was very popular, and there were more mixed blood, so the social atmosphere was also relatively open, and the status of women was relatively high.

  For example, the famous Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty was honored by the Turkic people as the sage Khan, but the wife of the Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, Queen Dugu, was extremely powerful. Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty gave birth to five sons and five daughters, all of whom were born by Queen Dugu alone.

  In his later years, Yang Jian was greedy for a while, and luckily met Yuchi in the palace, but when he came back from court, Yuchi was killed by Dugu.

  Yang Jian rode away from the palace angrily. He rode his horse and ran for dozens of miles alone. He squatted by the river and cried sadly, but he didn't dare to do anything to Queen Dugu.

In addition to the reason for the deep relationship between husband and wife, Queen Dugu's family was very powerful, and under the social atmosphere at that time, the high status of women was also extremely important. You must know that Queen Dugu's father was Dugu Xin, one of the Eight Pillars of the Western Wei Dynasty, and Yang Jian's father Yang Loyalty is just one of the twelve generals under the Eight Pillars Kingdom.

  The higher the status of a woman's natal family, the higher her status in her husband's family, even the emperor's couple, let alone the common people.

Fang Xuanling and the Lu family are similar to Dugu and Yang Jian. Fang Xuanling was born as a Jinshi and started as a county lieutenant. His father served successively in the Northern Qi Dynasty and the Sui Dynasty. He was the governor of Silitai in the Sui Dynasty. He is famous. Masters of calligraphy and literature, but compared to Fan Yang and Lu's family, the status of the Fang family is still far behind.

So when Fang Xuanling married Lu's family, it was Gao Pan, and Lu's family was married, so Lu's status in the family was very high. Fang Xuanling's fear of his wife was not only because of his love for his wife, but also because of Lu's natal family. related.

   "Divorce?" Fan Chengzong laughed, "Duke Liang dared to divorce his wife? How did he beg for marriage for my Lu family? Now he dares to divorce his wife? Does he dare?"

"Your Majesty, Duke Liang is the prime minister of the current court, and he is also your Majesty's favored minister. Your Majesty can't understand some behaviors." The white-faced **** is not afraid of the Lu family. He is just an **** and the emperor's private slave, so others are afraid of the Lu family. Hey, he is a servant of the emperor, so there is nothing to be afraid of.

   "Madam, why is Liang Guogong accepting a few concubines? Why does Madam have to do this?"

  Lu Shi didn't say a word, he stepped forward two steps, grabbed the silver bottle in his hand, opened the seal violently, and poured it into his mouth.

   "No!"

  Lu Chengzong and other members of the Lu family exclaimed.

  By the time the silver bottle was taken away, Lu Shi had already taken a few swigs.

   "Hurry up, go get the dung water!" Lu Chengzong panicked, and hurriedly shouted, the woman of the Lu family is precious, but there is no need to drink poisoned wine just to stop her husband from taking concubines, what a fool.

  There was a sour smell in the living room.

"very sour!"

  Lu Shi trembled sourly, "Why did the emperor insult me ​​Lu Shi so much, and why is the golden wine so sour?"

   "This is obviously vinegar!" Lu Chengzong also smelled something wrong.

  The white-faced **** really didn't expect that he couldn't frighten this Lu family. He really grabbed the silver bottle, opened it and drank a few mouthfuls. If it was real gold flakes wine, Lu's family might be doomed.

  His face turned paler.

   "This, this is actually vinegar!" The **** had no choice but to say so.

"vinegar?"

  Everyone is dumbfounded, what the **** are they doing?

  Gold flake poisonous wine, how did it become a mistake?

  The manure has been brought.

  Lu Shi didn't want to drink feces to induce vomiting.

  The Lu family surrounded themselves with white faces, and they all heaved a sigh of relief when they got the answer that this was indeed just jealousy.

  At this time, the white-faced **** still had an edict to read.

   "The Holy One speaks!"

"Fan Yang Lu, you can hear this decree, which means that you chose poisoned wine and refused to let your husband take a concubine. It really surprises me. But since you are not afraid of death, Lu, why do you have to be afraid of your husband? How many concubines do you take? Could it be that a few lowly concubines can affect and threaten your status as a big wife?"

   "Mr. Lu, thinking of your deep love between husband and wife, I will not hold you accountable for being jealous of a shrew. You will keep the beauty you sent as a concubine, and let Xuanling relax and enjoy the blessings. Alright, I respect you!"

  Lu Shi was a little embarrassed.

  The expensive brocade dress was stained with a lot of vinegar, and the strong smell of acetic acid brought tears to my eyes.

   Facing the second edict of the emperor.

  Lu Shi was silent.

  Lu Chengzong was a little ashamed and angry. He felt that Fan Yang and Lu had been played by the emperor and Fang Xuanling, so he shouted for Fang Qiao to give him an explanation.

"never mind."

  Mr. Lu called his cousin to stop.

"Reply to His Majesty the Emperor for me. Of the ten beauties bestowed by the Emperor, I will select two Han girls as concubines for the left servant, and I will transfer the rest of the bearded girls of different races to my natal brothers as maidservants. These The humble daughter of a barbarian is not qualified to be a concubine in the Duke of Liang's mansion!"

  Fang Xuanling was playing chess with the emperor in the palace, waiting for the servant's reply, he was already biting like ants, and he had no master. He was good at chess, but today he made mistakes again and again, losing again and again.

  Li Shimin was bored to win, so he just threw the chess pieces and couldn't play.

   Finally looking forward to the reply from the servant.

   "Mr. Lu is really a strong woman!"

  When Li Shimin heard that Mrs. Lu was jealous, he couldn't help being amazed.

  Fang Xuanling was frowning. This time he really overturned the jar of jealousy, and he didn't know how to face Lu Shi when he went back.

"Xuanling, you should be happy. Before, the Lu family didn't let you take a single concubine. Now, with my efforts, I have finally left you two. It's a pity that those barbaric girls are all beauties. In vain, the Lu family is cheap."

  Fang Xuanling smiled helplessly, "Thank you Your Majesty for forgiving the clumsy Jing."

   It is said that after Fang Xuanling came home that day, Lu Shi, whose teeth were sour, was forced to stand by the bed all night.

  The story of Fang Qiao taking a concubine and Lu Shi being jealous also spread throughout Chang'an immediately, and jealousy became synonymous with jealousy.

  Of course, as the prime minister's wife, Lu dared to directly refuse her husband to take a concubine, and even refused the emperor's interference. This also made Chang'an people see how powerful Fan Yang Lu was.

  The one who was most unhappy about this incident was Lu Chengzong. He originally lived in Xuanling's house temporarily, but unexpectedly, he thought that the emperor and Fang Xuanling had joined forces to play tricks on the Lu family and insulted the Lu family.

  If it wasn't for Fang Xuanling's persuasive persuasion, Lu Chengzong would almost return to Fan Yang with his clansmen. Although he stayed in the end, he no longer wanted to live in Fang's house.

  Lu Chengzong shook Fang Xuanling's face, and then shamelessly took away the six orchid beauties whom Lu Shi laughed at.

  Fang Xuanling sent them all the way to the door, watching them go away, with a smile on their faces.

   "Father, uncle and the others are too bullying. They are guests from afar. Our family is so dedicated to hospitality, but he is so rude to father!" Fang Yi said dissatisfied.

   "If the children are ignorant, don't talk nonsense. It's your uncle's house. When you have time, go and walk around to see what they need. Our family will try our best to meet it."

   "I won't go." Fang Yizhi was young and could not understand the domineering Lu family.

   "Fuck!" Fang Xuanling scolded his son dissatisfied, "You are still young and don't understand many things. When you grow up, you will understand what father means."

  Pingkangfang.

Qin Lang was having breakfast in his own tea house in the commercial street. This tea house was similar to a tea restaurant in its business style. It had all kinds of snacks and also sold tea. From morning to night, one could stay here all day. , all kinds of dim sum can not be repeated. While drinking tea and snacks, you can also listen to books in the morning, listen to music in the afternoon, and watch dances in the evening.

  Qin Lang poured some balsamic vinegar into the dipping plate in front of him, served with steamed dumplings stuffed with mutton, and a bowl of mutton soup, which was delicious.

   "Ms. Lu is really amazing." Qin Lang sighed after hearing the story of Lu's jealousy.

   "That just shows that the Lu family is used to being domineering and unreasonable!" Cheng Chumo ordered a plate of horse meat buns, buns as big as fists, and he took two or three bites each.

   "The Lu family has left the house, where do they live now?"

   "Just Pingkangfang, the other courtyard of Fang Xiang's family near Beiqu." Lu Chengzong left Liang Guogong's mansion, but ended up living in Fang Xuanling's other courtyard in Pingkangfang, which is also funny.

   "Sanlang, the Lu family has really started to rent out the restaurants and prostitutes in Pingkangfang, and pay directly with Huang Chengcheng's gold. Damn it, it's really rich!"

   "Do you really want to hire all the restaurants and prostitutes?"

   "Well, all inclusive."

   "Don't the Lu family know how many restaurants and prostitutes there are in Pingkangfang now? This bag costs a lot for one night."

   "The family has gold, and they are bold. Let's talk about it, get together with wine, make friends with poetry, and even those who can't compose and recite poems can come. The Lu family is the host!"
