Cannon Fodder Battle Chapter 649: Holding hands with rivers and mountains to please you (6)
No one responded, but Tong Xinlan's extraordinary hearing still heard a slight sound of air currents, and the dark guard Baili had already left.
Thinking of this, Tong Xinlan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Fortunately, there were no mistakes when she hadn't read Hua Shulan's memory, otherwise the secret guards left behind by the old emperor to protect Hua Shulan would definitely find out.
Okay, this mission has the memory of Hua Shulan helping the young emperor protect the throne in the previous life, and Tong Xinlan is still very handy when assisting Luo Yan in handling the government affairs.
She still has to spend more energy on teaching Luo Yan to discern the hearts of others, especially women.
Although later Luo Yan abandoned his family and country because of the infatuation Gu, but at the very beginning, he was still attracted by the "different" Qiao Shishi.
After all, Qiao Shishi has the unique temperament of time-traveling women, which is different from the gentle and charming temperament of contemporary women.
When she was not favored by the emperor at the beginning, Qiao Shishi also put her tail between her legs and did not dare to cause trouble.
But later, after knowing that the emperor was obedient to her, she began to act hypocritically.
So, how to teach the emperor now?
As a woman, Tong Xinlan is naturally unwilling to teach Luo Yan to be a scumbag.
Tong Xinlan herself doesn't like stallions either. However, it is impossible for an emperor in this era not to open a harem. Even if you don’t count the most ambitious Jiang Kingdom, there are Cao Kingdom, Hongrong Kingdom, Huanbi Kingdom, and Chen Kingdom all eyeing Xiyue Kingdom where the young emperor took over. As long as Luo Yan makes a mistake, he may be caught by them The flaw launched an attack on Xiyue.
In such a situation surrounded by powerful enemies, it is difficult for the royal family to maintain the balance of the surrounding countries.
Since the emperor's Sangong and Liuyuan exist, it makes sense. Except for those emperors who continue to choose beautiful girls from the people, the rest of the emperors basically understand that the real meaning of the draft is to win over the court. A capable minister acts faithfully for himself.
It cannot be said that the emperor is pitiful, nor can it be said that those women who were selected into the harem are pitiful. We look at it from a modern perspective, it is unfair and narrow.
In the feudal society, being able to marry into the royal family was a great honor, and many women crave for it. If anyone is not happy, it is only a woman who has her own heart.
After all, women who can marry into the royal family are not ordinary women from small families. For them, there is no freedom in marriage. Marrying into the royal family and marrying into other back houses are just different in size of the cage.
It is good that the emperor has many women, but it is impossible for other men who can afford to marry them not to have concubines and housemaids.
Maybe there are individual men who are absolutely infatuated and do not take concubines, but that is only a minority.
Tong Xinlan is not saying that men in ancient times should be like this, but the social environment at that time was like this. Without the perspective of God, who knows which man would never take a concubine?
So, for the ancient local girls, marrying the emperor or other sons of aristocratic families is actually the same.
Furthermore, if you can marry into the imperial palace, you will not be able to get the favor and glory you will bring to your family if you marry someone else. Marrying a man from another family is actually for the sake of marriage.
As for ordinary people's families, if they don't take concubines, it's just that they can't afford to support concubines. Businessmen and gentry who can afford concubines, who doesn't embrace them left and right?
Let's say that the law protects monogamy in modern times, and rich men, who doesn't have a few wives outside?
Those men are not as noble as the emperor. At least, some emperors are indeed selling themselves to win over their courtiers, not just for flesh/lust.
Moreover, if you want to say, in the past emperors in the world, there was actually an emperor who had only one wife, and that was Ming Xiaozong Zhu Youtang of the Ming Dynasty.
However, it is not easy for Luo Yan to become a man like Zhu Youtang who only married one wife. During the Ming Dynasty, there was no major turmoil, and it was relatively stable. The cabinet system of government affairs.
Furthermore, after the catalysis of the Dali Conference, the speed of local clan township contracting was also very fast, and the further development of local autonomy since the Song and Yuan Dynasties ensured that the Ming government's relatively effective control of the local area and the collection of taxes and servitude were also effective. The combat effectiveness of the army has been greatly improved.
These conditions cannot be met by Luo Yan, and the system of the Ming Dynasty cannot be perfected by one or two emperors. Moreover, Luo Yan's control over Xiyue Kingdom is still weak, and the national conditions are fundamentally different.
Kangxi, who was also enthroned as a young man, did not marry so many wives because of his lust. The other Qianlong, who enthroned at a young age, was an absolute scumbag who caught up with a good time and reincarnated.
Tong Xinlan felt that she couldn't teach Luo Yan to become a scum like Qianlong, but to become the rest, the emperor who held the harem would be fine.
The emperor can also have true feelings, but there are few women who can give the emperor true feelings.
As a modern-minded mother, Tong Xinlan feels that it is really difficult to be the emperor's mother.
It has been planned for a long time, but Tong Xinlan has never carried it out. After all, asking her to teach a 10-year-old boy "how to treat women" is really hard to say, which makes Tong Xinlan feel that she is Looks like a strange aunt.
To save trouble, you can't tell him like Zhang Wuji's mother that you don't trust beautiful women. If the child is scared into homosexuality, Hua Shulan will definitely give her zero points.
Moreover, ~IndoMTL.com~ The news brought back by Baili also confirmed that the current Qiao Shishi is still the original Qiao Shishi, and Tong Xinlan is even less anxious to speed up her understanding of Luo Yan and women.
Qiao Shishi has to wait for several years to enter the palace. Qiao Shishi is only three years old, and there are still ten years before she can enter the palace.
What are you in a hurry for?
The reason why Tong Xinlan didn't kill Qiao Shishi in the first place, or find a reason to take off Qiao Shishi's father and send their whole family to the frontier, is because she was afraid of the butterfly effect.
Kill Qiao Shishi, what about another Zhang Shishi and Liu Shishi?
Let's let Qiao Shishi develop freely. After she enters the palace, she, the dowager, will slowly train her. In her previous life, Hua Shulan was concerned about her son, so she was just stricter with Qiao Shishi. She asked the emperor to go to other palaces to soak in the rain and dew, and she was not the only empress dowager who did this. She was just doing what an empress dowager should do, but she didn't make the rest of the palace people embarrass her too much.
In the end, it was Qiao Shishi who drove Hua Shulan out of Fengyi Hall and sent her to the cold palace.
