General Qin

"Why the same surname does not marry, Nai Gong has no surname, and they all married wives. This group of Confucian scholars, Nai Gong must stab their ass to death!"

In the Great Shu Chang's Mansion, the black butt who has settled in Xianyang City is cursing.

On the side, Lu Wan, Zhong Limei, Li Shang and others were also full of anger. If the law were not harsh, they really wanted to lead people into the doctoral palace and give them a hard lesson.

Shejian's eyes were full of murderous intent, and he whispered: "They are resenting the enfeoffment before, and taking this opportunity to take revenge on the elder."

Li Shiqi shook his head, took a sip from the wine on the table, and said with a sneer, "No, I have already asked my familiar friends from the Yin Yang family. The reason why these Confucian scholars objected may be for reasons. The meaning of machine play."

"Before the emperor abolished the posthumous posthumous law and traveled to prefectures and counties, they were dissatisfied. Now the marriage of the elders and elders just goes against the etiquette system. They use the excuse of maintaining the etiquette system to expand their right to speak and make their voices heard. If they can Preventing the great concubine from getting married will allow Confucianism to gain a firm foothold in Qin."

Speaking of this, Li Shiqi turned his head and smiled at Zhao Tuo who was sitting in the main seat: "But because of this, I think the elders don't care about it this time. They are just looking for embarrassment this time."

Shejian said in a deep voice, "Why don't you teach me how to speak, and I will debate with them at the court meeting tomorrow."

Li Shiqi was startled, and said with a smile: "It's not necessary for Shezhong. According to my guess, someone will make a move tomorrow."

"Sir said so."

Zhao Tuo also calmed down at this moment, seeing clearly the relationship behind this matter.

Those Confucian scholars were not stupid enough to choose to oppose the marriage purely out of revenge for themselves. The reason why they did so was of course a purpose.

But in this way, it will naturally damage the interests of some people, and they will not be allowed to play tricks.

"At the meeting tomorrow, I want to see how they perform."

A sneer appeared on the corner of Zhao Tuo's mouth.

He's not worried at all now.

Except for allies who might make a move.

Those Confucian scholars were from Shandong, and they had only been in Qin for a short time, so they hadn't figured out who the current emperor was.

If the emperor could use the so-called etiquette to change the marriage, it would really be the sun rising from the west.

On the emperor's couch today, the one sitting is the first emperor!

...

As the "same surname does not marry" thing spread in Xianyang City.

It has aroused the attention and discussion of many Qin people.

"The eldest son is from the state of Zhao, so why not honor my princess from the state of Qin? She is not a close relative. What kind of broken rules is this? It is really unreasonable."

"Of course, how much credit has the great concubine made for us to unify the country of Qin, he takes the princess as it should, and those who have the same surname don't marry. These people really have nothing to do when they are full."

"I don't care, Da Shuchang's suggestion to expand the number of students in the school so that my son can enter the school is my benefactor, and he should be the princess!"

Most of the Qianshou were people without surnames, so they felt ridiculous about the so-called "no marriage with the same surname".

Especially those veterans who retired from the army were filled with righteous indignation, and some even insulted those Confucian disciples who went around spreading propaganda on the spot.

If it weren't for Qin's prohibition of private fighting, those Confucian disciples would have been beaten to death on the spot.

Such a scene was beyond the expectations of Zhou Qingchen, Chun Yuyue and others. They wanted to arouse public opinion against Princess Zhao Tuoshang, but they didn't know that the common people in the head of Guizhou did not sympathize with them at all.

"There is no surname Qianshou, so I don't know etiquette. We don't need to care about it. It is the officials and ministers who can really have an impact. The last time Zhao Tuo mentioned the prefectures and counties and reversed the enfeoffment, it must have caused the resentment of many ministers. Then we will Open your mouth, and someone will follow along."

Chun Yuyue and the others remained optimistic.

With such undercurrents surging, it was time for the court meeting on the second day.

Zhao Tuo came to the Qin Palace early in the morning.

The main hall is majestic, and all the officials and ministers gather in front of the hall.

"Elder Master."

Seeing Zhao Tuo coming, many people saluted and greeted each other.

Although there are too many people here, it is difficult to single out the words, but many ministers and ministers who are close to Zhao Tuo have shown goodwill to Zhao Tuo, which is a hint of support.

"Sure enough, not many people who can gain a foothold in the court are fools."

Zhao Tuo's heart became clearer.

In the distance, seeing many ministers greeting Zhao Tuo one after another, fear appeared on Zhou Qingchen's face, while Chun Yuyue and the others were expressionless.

"The emperor is very polite. Zhao Tuo's favor of the princess is obviously against the rules of etiquette. We have a chance of winning!"

After a while, as the carols were sung in the hall, all the officials stepped into the hall amidst the voices of the audience, and sat down according to their official positions.

Zhao Tuo sat in front of the west, while the doctors stood at the end of the hall.

Diagonally opposite Zhao Tuo is Ting Wei Li Si.

Zhao Tuo smiled back at Li Si.

Li Si nodded with a smile.

Smart people can understand each other without speaking.

At this time, as the emperor entered the palace on a walking chariot and sat down on the god's couch, the court meeting officially began.

"What about the palace?"

The emperor first asked about the construction progress of the palace in Beiban, Xianyang.

General Zuo Shaofu, who was in charge of the construction of the palace mausoleum, immediately issued a statement: "Return to Your Majesty, the Chu Palace has been completed today, and the Qi Palace will start construction in the second half of this month."

"Um."

The emperor nodded slightly, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

When the Qi Palace is completed, he will be able to sit in the Palace of the Seven Kingdoms in Xianyang.

It is really a great enjoyment to fill the palace with beauties and treasures from all over the world, and it can bring him a strong sense of pleasure.

Then at the court meeting, some state affairs were dealt with.

The group of Confucian scholars standing at the end of the hall couldn't bear it anymore.

Chun Yuyue urged his servant Zhou Qingchen to speak.

But Zhou Qingchen couldn't help being afraid when he thought of the scene where the ministers greeted Zhao Tuo and the fact that Prime Minister Zuo Wang Wan didn't support them.

He was supposed to speak out, but he didn't dare to speak at this moment.

Chun Yuyue, who was standing behind him, couldn't help showing anger when he saw this.

This week Pu She got cold feet, he really was a dog with a broken spine.

Relying on the breath in his chest, Chunyu Yue stood up and said: "The minister Chunyu Yue is ignorant and dead to His Majesty. There is a saying in etiquette, the surname is different from marriage, if they have the same surname, the marriage will not work for a hundred generations, so as to determine the relationship between the world."

"Today, I heard that the eldest son of the concubine, Zhao Tuo, honored the princess. The eldest son of the concubine, Zhao Tuo, came from the clan of the former Zhao State, and was a descendant of the Zhao family with the surname Ying. And the eldest princess of your majesty is also a descendant of the surname Ying. For the same surname, intermarriage should not be allowed according to the etiquette system. I also ask your majesty to act in accordance with the etiquette law and prevent their marriage, only the good luck!"

As soon as these words came out, all the ministers and bureaucrats looked playfully at the Confucian doctor who spoke.

This guy is really brave.

As the protagonist of this matter, Zhao Tuo's face was calm, but the face of the emperor on the emperor's couch turned cold all of a sudden.

He asked indifferently: "You said, the same surname does not marry?"

Chun Yuyue cupped his hands and said: "Not marrying with the same surname is an ancient ritual system. Qin is a state of etiquette. Since ancient times, it has made alliances with countries with different surnames. There are several generations of marriage alliances between Qin, Jin, and Qin Chu, but there has never been a good marriage between Qin and Zhao." , is the proof, please Your Majesty to follow the etiquette."

After Chunyuyue's words fell, Qi Diaobi and several bold doctors echoed: "The ancients said that a man and a woman with the same surname are born differently, and it is really taboo to marry with the same surname. Please also check it out, Your Majesty!"

There was a dead silence in the hall, and many people had surprised expressions on their faces.

They didn't expect these Confucian doctors to be so bold.

Men and women with the same surname are born differently.

Although this sentence is indeed an old saying, many people have heard it, but it is amazingly courageous to say it in public in this hall.

Zhao Tuo narrowed his eyes, and clenched his hands into fists.

On the emperor's couch, the emperor did not get angry, only a cold light flashed in his eyes.

At his current state, it seems that his emotions and anger are invisible.

He said indifferently: "What do you think about this matter?"

After Qin Shihuang's words fell, a person in the hall had prepared for a long time, stood up, and shouted loudly: "This is a ridiculous statement!"

Everyone took a closer look, and saw that it was Ting Wei Li Si who was furious and yelled at Dr. Dianwei.

"As far as we are concerned according to etiquette, how can Ting Wei talk about the word absurd!"

Chunyu Yue pouted his head, not afraid of Li Si, and confronted him tit for tat.

Zhao Tuo had already guessed about Li Si's move, so he was not surprised.

It's just that he couldn't help shaking his head secretly when he saw Chunyu Yue's courageous appearance, daring to argue with Li Si.

"Historically, it was Chun Yuyue who dared to scold Zhou Qingchen for flattery in front of the emperor, and let the emperor do feudal things again. In the end, it was Chun Yuyue who caused the burning of books all over the country.

Seeing that Chunyuyue came forward to respond, Li Si asked, "Etiquette? From what I see, what you say is the law of the ancestors, and you often cite the good governance of the three generations to prove it?"

"That's the case. It's unheard of to say that things can last forever without learning from the ancients. Only by learning from the methods of the previous kings can the country last forever. If you change the ancient system without authorization, you may suffer disaster."

Chunyu Yue held his head up and spoke, there was something in his words, insinuating about the affairs of the previous county.

This made Zhao Tuo even more speechless.

He quietly glanced at the emperor on the couch, and saw that his face was expressionless, and his heart was chilled. If it was an emperor with poor concentration, he might not be outraged on the spot.

Li Si continued to ask: "Since it is the law of the previous kings, and the three generations of good politics are used. Then I would like to ask which generation made the etiquette of non-marriage with the same surname. Is it Xia? Shang? Or Zhou?"

Chunyu Yue frowned, but still replied: "It is the Zhou Gong system of rites, teaching the princes of the world."

"Hehe, it turned out to be the etiquette and law of the Zhou Dynasty. For us, this is indeed the ancient king. But since you are talking about three generations of good governance, why don't the people of Zhou learn from Xia and Shang's laws this week!"

Speaking of this, Li Siang said: "I have heard that Xia and Shang did not dislike the marriage of the same surname, until the people of Zhou did not follow the law of the previous kings and changed the politics of Xia and Shang. Since ancient times, for thousands of years, Xia and Shang In ancient times, there were intermarriages with the same surname, why was there any difference?"

"Since you say that governing the country should be based on the methods of the ancient kings, why not learn from the marriage system of Xia and Shang, but instead follow the etiquette of the Zhou people who have changed the methods of the previous kings without imitating the ancients?"

"Xia Shang Guye?"

"Zhou Guye?"

"Wei Shu·Gao Zu Ji": Xia Yin did not dislike marriages with the same surname, and the Zhou system began to abstain from marriages with the same surname.

"Book of Rites · Da Zhuan · Justice" says: Yin people can intermarry after the fifth generation.

Volume 540 of "Taiping Yulan" quotes "Ritual Wai Zhuan" as saying: After the fifth generation of Xia and Yin, marriage was established, and Zhou Gong system of rites, which will not be understood for a hundred generations.
