The salted fish couple is fleeing famine

Chapter 383 Princess Wedding
You don’t know if you don’t have statistics, but you will be shocked when you get statistics.

It took Xia Hongdi seven or eight days to read the detailed report at hand.

In the end, I was so shocked that I broke out in a cold sweat!

Especially the princesses who were sent out for marriage in those years, very few lived to be over forty years old.

One sixth died in childbirth, and those who were lucky enough to leave behind descendants now have no one in power.

Even if it is the princesses who are favored and stay in the capital.

Before marriage, the prince-in-law is also carefully selected, and after marriage, only a handful of them sing in harmony with each other.

A concubine cannot openly take concubines, but privately, how can he have fewer actors and actresses?
The princess who has a stronger temperament has a troubled marriage, is tired of the prince-in-law, and lives alone in the princess mansion all year round.

Some of those who were weak-tempered and unwilling to go back to their parents' homes to complain were actually bullied into using their dowries to help the concubine raise his concubine and concubine.
"It's all such a mess!" The investigation report made Xia Hongdi furious.

Not to mention ordinary people's families, not many married women from aristocratic families live such a short and miserable life.

Why are there so few of the noble princesses of the Great Xia Dynasty who are lucky? !
"Come here, check carefully for me, the consort of Princess Zheng and the consort of Princess Wei!"

"promise!"

The careless emperor will become impatient once his mind starts to wander.

He was afraid that his biological daughters would be bullied under the eyes of his father.

Thinking of his legitimate daughter Princess Jingyao, if she shed tears all day long after marriage, he would have the desire to destroy the nine clans of his consort.

He took the palace rules from the Princess's Mansion and the Prince Consort's Mansion and read them through carefully.

I fantasized that I was the prince-in-law, and after thinking about it for a while, I started to shudder just by thinking about the process that I had to go through to pay my respects to the princess.

Uncomfortable routine, delete it!
The stewards who used chicken feathers as ceremonial arrows could not take any of them.

Get rid of all the nuns who have big ideas, talk nonsense, and rely on their elders!
Three days later, the secret guards put the investigation report on Emperor Tianshun's desk.

The first one saw the consort of Princess Zheng (Princess Fangyi, the daughter of Xianfei).

This boy, because the princess had nothing to do after three years of marriage, secretly planned to stop Tongfang's medicine, and tried to persuade Princess Zheng to accept the concubine and concubine he had raised outside.
"That's unreasonable! Is this because of someone's heart?" After just a few glances, Xia Hongdi was furious with his son-in-law.

His royal father is still alive!
The Great Xia Dynasty has not yet destroyed the country!

When has it been the turn of a young man from an aristocratic family to be so arrogant? !

Let’s look at the consort of Princess Wei (Princess Chengxia, born of Concubine Hui).

What a treat!
In one year, I only met with the princess three times, and stayed overnight twice!
Reciting poems and painting all day long, arty!
This kind of trash actually made Princess Wei so obsessed with him.

I often follow the example of others who lament the spring and autumn, and use the poems and paintings of the Prince Consort as treasures.

The talent of the prince-in-law can be so famous in Daxia, and it is indispensable for his stupid daughter to channel his power in private.

When Xia Hongdi picked up the Prince Consort's latest masterpiece and took a look at it, Xia Hongdi couldn't help but vomit: "What kind of bullshit are they written about?"

It's not that the emperor's cultural literacy was low, but that the so-called descendants of literary giants were really poor at poetry and painting.

Queen Gao didn't pay attention to the dog man's thunderous anger. While helping her daughter to increase her dowry, she also taught various ways of getting along with husband and wife.

"Compared to being a prince-in-law who respects you and is cautious in words and deeds, the queen mother hopes that Yaoyao can get a husband with true temperament.

From now on, you two will be the closest people in the world, and you can talk to each other about your joys, sorrows, and sorrows. Even a small quarrel is better than obeying what is said." Princess Jingyao nodded continuously.

Her second-headed brother is not such a boring person. How can we get along comfortably in her mansion?
Xia Hongdi had just finished taking care of his two sons-in-law.

He also carefully selected many treasures from his private treasury to Princess Jingyao.

In the Princess's Mansion and the Prince Consort's Mansion, there were as many as 500 eunuchs and palace servants who were rewarded and beaten countless times by the emperor himself.

In addition to these, among the dowries prepared by Empress Gao for her daughter, the most valuable ones are the Huangzhuang Workshop and the more than 200 "Xia Zhi" chain stores across the country.

These hot pot restaurants can bring high profits of two million silver to the princess every year.

Princess Jingyao herself is a real rich person.

This was just one part of her dowry. From the time she was born, Empress Gao added to her daughter's dowry every year.

Emperor Tianshun's private treasury was also robbed all year round!
If there were a transparent wealth ranking, Princess Jingyao should be among the top three women in the country.

During the wedding preparation period, the princess herself does not need to embroider the wedding dress.

The embroiderers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs will spend the next year and a half embroidering wedding clothes for the princess and the prince-in-law.

"Queen Mother, Queen Mother, you helped the imperial sister to miss out on a dowry!"

The fifth prince, Xia En, puffed out his cheeks. After protesting against his sister's marriage numerous times but being rejected, he finally accepted the reality.

Today, for some unknown reason, I ran to Queen Gao again to complain.

"En'er, why are you making such a fuss? The dowry list prepared by the queen mother for your sister has not yet been finalized."

"Hmph! En'er wants to be my sister's dowry and live with her in the princess mansion!"

This was a solution he had thought about for several days. With how much his sister loved him, the Princess Mansion would definitely have a yard for him to live in.

Queen Gao laughed so hard at his child's words that she couldn't stand upright.

But Xia Hongdi, who had just entered Kunning Palace, was furious at his son:
"How dignified are you, the legitimate prince? If you don't study hard, you will always be following your sister! Look, how do you make your mother and sister dote on you?!"

The old father’s heart is full of reluctance to let go of his daughter when she marries her!
It sounds like I have to pay for another old son, which really stirs up a hornet's nest.

When the fifth prince turned eight years old, he received his first fat beating in his life.

Childhood is finally complete.

After hearing that he was very sad and reluctant to let go of his sister, his future brother-in-law gave him a box of various gadgets.

He also promised him that he could go to the Prince Consort's Mansion whenever he wanted and stay there for as long as he wanted.

Only then did the fifth prince recover from the "sorrow" of marrying his sister.

Although the prince-in-law of the Great Xia Dynasty did not need to give a betrothal gift when marrying a princess, usually the father-in-law would give them various rewards.

But how could Yuan Wenwu, who had been brainwashed by his mother since he was a child and started saving money for his private life at a young age, be so shameless?
He put all his private property into a box and asked the prince to transfer it to Princess Jingyao.

The future prince-in-law has a good reputation: the men of the Yuan family are responsible for making money to support the family, and the daughter-in-law only needs to take the money and spend it as she pleases.

Old woman Cuihua: Ouch, I think back then, my two eldest sons kept saying that the money they earned was only for their own mothers to spend!
