Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 1182
The dignitaries of the Tang Dynasty did not do whatever they wanted, no matter what circle they were in, there were its rules of the game.

No matter how powerful you are, you can only marry one wife.From ancient times to the present, China has had a system of monogamy and multiple concubines, and this system has never changed.

There is no such thing as the so-called "Ping Wife" in the folklore. It is probably imagined by the common people. It is like the old peasants looking forward to what kind of life the emperor lived. Must be made of gold.

In this Eastern Expedition, Li Qinzai and Xue Na stole the limelight, and both brothers made great military exploits for the Tang Dynasty.

But still the same sentence, no matter how awesome you are, you can only marry one woman, there is no need to discuss it.

If you don't agree, look at the emperor, isn't the emperor awesome?He also has only one queen, and he has never heard of "East Queen" or "West Queen".

Of course, Xue Na can marry concubines. The "Tang Law Shuyi" clearly stipulates that men in the Tang Dynasty must be officials of high rank to be eligible to take concubines. For example, a prince can take twelve concubines, and a first-rank official can take ten concubines. The product rank is high and low and gradually decreases.

This is just a statement, and few people can abide by it. Merchants and landlords who have money but no power also take concubines, and the government can't pursue it. After all, people live their lives in the backyard. Who knows whether the women in the backyard are concubines? The room is still a maid.

With Xue Na's status, it is of course no problem to take a concubine, but the problem is, you plan to take the daughter of the county Hou's family in as a concubine, which is off the charts.

The Marquis of Nanyang County named Liu Shen couldn't have agreed to such a rude request if his brain hadn't been kicked by a donkey.

"Go on, what will happen after seeing the daughter of Hou's family in Nanyang County?" Li Qinzai's gossip was blazing.

Xue Na sighed, and said: "There was an accident in the carriage collision. Of course, I have to get out of the car to check the theory. I apologized to the daughter of the Liu family through the curtain of the car. The daughter of the Liu family did not make a sound in the carriage..."

"The matter was left alone, and two days later, it was destined that my daughter and I were destined to be destined. When I was visiting the West Market, I met the daughter of the Liu family again on the street. A merchant sold a white bear to her. Skin."

"I looked at it from a distance, and it was clear that the Hu merchant was selling a fake. I didn't know where to get a piece of damaged black bear skin, dyed it with tanning, and treated it as a precious white bear skin. The daughter of the Liu family was fooled. When it was time to pay, I stepped forward and exposed that barbarian businessman in the street..."

"That Hu merchant was arrogant. He ordered a few guys to surround me and said that he wanted to bleed me. Heh, I, Xue Na, is a general's son. I have never been cowarded on the battlefield of Goguryeo. How can I be afraid of these clowns?"

Li Qinzai's heart was surging when he heard this, the plot is reaching a critical juncture, and the protagonist's aura is about to light up...

"And then? Then?" Li Qinzai straightened up and asked.

Xue Na sneered: "Then... I was beaten up all over my head by some of Hu Shang's buddies."

Li Qinzai: "..."

Silent, he began to reflect on himself, why the hell should I expect him?
Xue Na rubbed his nose embarrassingly, and explained: "Well... I visited West Market that day in a modest suit, and I didn't wear official robes and I didn't bring the part of Fuchu. A lone wolf who is alone is not as good as a dog. hand……"

Li Qinzai sighed, and said listlessly: "You continue to talk about your emotional line."

Xue Na showed a sweet look, and said with a smile: "Hu Shang and his buddies ran away after beating me up. The daughter of the Liu family saw that I was injured because of her, so she hurried forward to help me treat the wound. In this way, she and I finally We got acquainted."

"In the next few days, I met her secretly, sometimes to visit the West Market, and sometimes to go out of the city to enjoy the snow, so that the news of Zu Yinggong's victory over Pyongyang City spread to Chang'an, and the emperor decreed that Chang'an City lifted the curfew for three days. She even went out to visit Chang'an City at night..."

Li Qinzai's smile is not a smile. This plot is familiar and bloody. I have seen too many movies and TV dramas in my previous life. The final ending is basically a man's misfortune and a woman's love. End, one dead, two lives...

"You have made a private decision for life?" Li Qinzai asked.

Xue Na sighed: "No, she and I both have concerns. After all, we both come from prestigious and powerful families. She knows that I already have a first wife. Her father will never marry her to me."

"The day before yesterday, I made up my mind that there must be an explanation anyway, so I invited a matchmaker to the Hou family in Nanyang County to propose marriage, wrote my birthday on a piece of paper and asked the matchmaker to take it..."

"Then what?" Li Qinzai's eyes glowed with gossip again.

Xue Na's cheeks twitched, and he said: "Liu Shen tore up my birthday and threw it in the matchmaker's face, and threw it out the door with the matchmaker and gifts, and said he was going to impeach me in front of the emperor. After meritorious service..."

"In the end, Liu Shen grounded his daughter too, and I cut off news with her, so I'm here with you today."

The whole story has a beginning and an end. It begins with the idea of ​​seeing sex and ends with beating a mandarin duck with a club. It is a typical dog-blood tragedy.

Li Qinzai smacked his lips, his expression still unfinished.

Fortunately, Xue Na is Xue Rengui's dog son. Xue Rengui was made a county prince a few years ago, and Xue's family is considered very important in the court.

If Xue Na was just a child from a poor family, Li Qinzai should give him too much at this moment.

"What's the matter with you and that girl?" Li Qinzai asked tactfully.

Xue Na was taken aback: "What?"

"That's what..."

"What is it?"

"What the hell..." Li Qinzai had no choice but to make an obscene gesture.

Xue Na understood immediately, and immediately became furious: "I am an upright gentleman, and I am innocent with the daughter of the Liu family. If I am not married, how could I do such a thing? Brother Jing Chu, An Neng bullied me!"

Li Qinzai hurriedly said: "Okay, I'm the one who got dirty, I'm sorry."

Unexpectedly, Xue Na's tone changed suddenly, and he sighed: "The night the curfew was lifted in the whole city, I planned to find an inn with her in the West Market to rest, but she won't do it..."

Li Qinzai was stunned.

Why does this guy have the nerve to say that he is a gentleman with a shy face?

After listening to the story, Li Qinzai stretched contentedly.

"So, you came to my house today to relax because of a broken relationship?"

Xue Na nodded, and said with a sad expression: "I found that half of my soul was lost, and I was lost in Chang'an City, so I thought of Brother Jing Chu, and Brother Wang took me in for a few days."

Li Qinzai smirked: "Take me in, of course I take you in. You will stay at my house for a few days, eating fish, meat, and wine every day. You can spoil it as you like."

"Brother Jingchu Gao Yi, brother Yu is very grateful."

Li Qinzai suddenly said again: "You just said that Baobao is a brothel, and you can't say that Pianli is with a brothel girl... Are you serious?"

Xue Na hastily said: "Brother Yu is gloomy and talks nonsense, Brother Jing Chu, don't take it to heart."

Li Qinzai was silent for a while, and then a sentence came out from between his teeth: "A man cannot stand without faith, a horse cannot be fat without night grass, and a man must keep his word!"
