Zhenguan Crown Prince Li Chengqian

Chapter 534 Xiao Yu's New Dad
With the face of a sister like Princess Xiangcheng, Xiao Yu, an old man who has retired, shouldn't make things difficult for him, but General Zuo Wuwei Xie Yingdeng is his confidant, he is a direct descendant of Jiangzuo Xie's family, and he is not an outsider.

The matters involved are trivial matters like sesame and mung beans, nothing more than a matter of face, so there is no need to make it so serious. Out of this consideration, except for the necessary officials in the main hall of Dali Temple, all the servants who listen to the matter let him coaxed out.

Zhongshu Ling-Cen Wenwen, Yushi Dafu-Ma Zhou, and Minister of the Ministry of Integrity-Dou Kuan listened to the order. Seeing Cen Wenwen sitting below with an old look on his face, Li Chengqian couldn't help sneering: Don't worry, your younger brother is just going to do it first. Just take a step, the emperor can protect you for a while, but not forever, just wait and see, hum!

Under the hall, Xiao Yu, the Patriarch of the Xie Family - Xie Fang, and the widow Wu Shi knelt under the hall. Xiao Xie, the two old men with gray beards, did not meet each other. Refuse to suffer.

Xiao Yu said that the Xie family relied on being a wealthy family to force them to observe filial piety and destroyed Wu's right to pursue happiness. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are bullying men and women.Besides, there are clear provisions in the laws of my Tang Dynasty, that is, there is no restriction on the remarriage of men and women, and the purpose of remarrying is to achieve the purpose of breeding.

Xie Fang listened to Xiao Yu's words, and what he said was even worse. Wu Shi said that he was a member of their Xie family. It is their family business to keep filial piety. Xiao Yu, don't say that you are not a prime minister now, even if you are, you can How about it, do you still have to take care of other people's housework?
From the perspective of national law, Xiao Yu, as a senior official and a national hero, should set an example for the local gentry even if he is not in his position, to protect the grace of heaven and the peace of the common people.

Personally speaking, Xiao Yu is known as a capable minister of governing the world, and a master of Confucianism, he should know what it means to be polite, righteous, honest and shameful, and to treat people with loyalty and kindness.But you, who are full of thoughts and entanglement with the widow who has already erected an archway all day long, how can this be called a great scholar of morality, such a house slave with three surnames, a hypocrite, a real villain, and even face the court, but I also know how to write the word "honesty and shame".

Hearing Xie Fang say the words "house slaves with three surnames", Li Chengqian and the general ministers present laughed out loud. That's right, from Xiao Yu's experience, he was born in Nanliang, served in the Sui Dynasty before he became an official, and committed himself to the university. Tang, the owner who worked hard for his life changed three companies, not to mention that he didn't make any major political achievements, but he enjoyed a lot of glory and wealth.

More importantly, Xiao Yu has always claimed to be a moral person, and he often teaches his students with propriety, justice, integrity and shame. Isn't he the one who taught Wei Wang Li Tai?When did this old guy get caught with such a braid? It's interesting.

Cough, cough, and after reminding everyone, Li Chengqian asked the widow of the Xie family who had kept her head down: "Xie Wu, widow remarriage does not violate the criminal law in the Tang Dynasty, but if it is adultery, then It's another matter, you can answer honestly, have you ever done anything out of courtesy in your relationship with Xiao Yu?"

"Returning to His Royal Highness, the little lady and Xiao Gong are out of love and out of courtesy. I wanted to negotiate with Xie's family and write a letter of reunion and divorce, so that we can get together and break up, but Xie's family disagreed desperately. If you insist on killing the little woman alive, and accuse me of having an affair with Mr. Xiao, the little woman is wronged!
Now that things are being forced to this point, the little woman doesn't care about her face anymore. The little woman is a widow, and she is still a perfect body. If you don't believe me, you can ask someone to test it. "

It is said that a woman who is blinded by love is no different from a lunatic. The Xie family's approach is not wrong or wrong in Datang, but it is a little unreasonable.Tang law clearly stated that if a widow wants to remarry, she must obtain the consent of her husband's family. Now that the Xie family does not agree, then the only thing to do is to make things big and let the world know that the Xie family forced others to observe filial piety.

Xiao Yu has a wide network of contacts in the court, as long as things become serious, even the emperor will reward him for his hard work in the past.This woman owns a restaurant, and she can be regarded as a person on the scene. She earns her living by observing her words and demeanor every day.

Her eloquent words today must have been discussed by the two of them a long time ago. Reputation is not important, as long as they can be together.Li Chengqian looked at Xiao Yu who looked indifferent, and then at Xie Fang who was scolding Wu for being shameless. This is really shameless and invincible.

It is easy to perfect Xiao Yu, but it is difficult to satisfy Xie's family, so he waved to the waiter below, motioning him to take Wu Shi down, and let the female messenger of Dali Temple check it out, as long as it is not too big for men and women Defense is not considered adultery, at best it is mutual admiration, and this matter is easy to handle.

After a while, the servants below brought Wu Shi back again, and then reported to Qi Naizi the inspection result. After hearing the result, Xiao Yu brushed his gray beard and gave Xie Fang a look, as if to say again, why? So, Lao Tzu is a modest gentleman, I never do such things, Xie Fang was so angry that he almost lost his temper.

After pondering for a moment, Li Chengqian said in a deep voice: "Patriarch Xie, there are Taoists who would rather demolish ten temples than break a single marriage. It’s better to be perfect.”

Before Xie Fang could refuse, Li Chengqian raised his hand to interrupt him, and continued: "Don't rush to refuse, I will not let you Xie Jiabai suffer. In this way, find a Taoist temple in Chang'an City to let Xie Wu Since she became a monk, she is no longer from the Xie family.

After a year and a half, your Xie family will redeem and buy someone out again, recognize a god-in-law, and then let Xiao Yu marry back according to the rules.In this way, your Xie family's reputation is not only preserved, but also the head of the Xiao family in Lanling becomes a son-in-law. Isn't this the best of both worlds? "

In Changzhou, the Xiao family and the Xie family have always been the aristocratic families, and no one will give in to the other. Now that Xiao Yu has fallen in love with the little widow of the family, he has to pay a price to let the Xie family make a lot of money in front of others. Face, as long as the matter of face is resolved, what does that woman care about!

"His Royal Highness, the old minister, the old minister refuses to obey, according to His Highness's sentence, isn't it because they Xie family became my father, what will happen to the old minister's face, how will he come out to meet people in the future, no, the old minister cannot accept this result."

Hearing Xiao Yu disagreed, Xie Fang on the side became angry, and I hadn't said anything, but you came here to beat him up, isn't it absurd?Then he said in a solemn voice: "You don't agree, the old man still doesn't agree, let you become our Xie's son-in-law, I'm afraid of burning the bag, bah!"

Papapapa, after knocking on the gavel three times, Li Chengqian showed displeasure on his face, and then pointed at Xiao Yu: "I give you two choices, you want a wife or you want to save face, and if you want a wife, you must recognize your father-in-law." , or let the Xie family take him back."

What the hell, Gubai invites you to drink that wine, and you are not willing to pay the price if you want someone. There is such a cheap thing in this world. For the family of aristocratic families, of course, the relationship is getting more and more chaotic for me. Okay, you are not messing around, can the emperor and Lao Tzu sleep peacefully?
Alas, after a long sigh, Xiao Yu lowered his head and replied feebly: "The old minister admits, the old minister admits.".
