The great man will live forever

Chapter 283 Urging marriage at the end of the year

Inside the room, looking around, it was deserted and miserable. It is most difficult to breathe when it is warm and then cold.

Most of the people in the palace have been transferred away, and there are only three people in the huge palace.

Guo Shengtong knelt on the ground and cried, "Liu Heng is his son. Qiang'er and Fu'er, aren't they his sons?"

At this time, Guo Shengtong was extremely sad. Lord Guo hugged her and said with tears in his eyes: "I didn't expect Liu Xiu to be so ruthless. I thought that the power of our Guo family could ensure that you would have no worries about your post, but I didn't expect that he would do it for you." Yin Lihua actually relinquished our military power."

Guo Shengtong's eyes were red, his lips were pale, and tears rolled down like raindrops. He raised his head and looked at Master Guo, "Mother, I don't understand, why did he turn a blind eye when I racked my brains to please him?

Instead, he showed his kindness to Yin Lihua in every possible way. I...I have forgotten the last time she smiled at me. Why? Why?

Compared with Yin Lihua, is my youth just like the mud under my clogs, ready to be stepped on by others?

I don’t understand, I don’t understand! "

She roared, as if she wanted to shout out her soul and all her grievances.

Lord Guo looked at this scene and his heart was broken, "Daughter, we don't have any bargaining chips anymore."

She gently wiped Guo Shengtong's tears with her hands, "I feel sorry for you like this. We won't fight them anymore, we won't fight them anymore, we won't fight them anymore."

He didn't want to fight anymore, but Guo Kuang on the side stopped and said, "Mother, why are you so confused at this time? You are already talking about it, why do you just fall short if you don't fight?

Now it's not a question of whether my sister wants to fight or not. The entire Guo family is looking at her alone. There will be no eggs left in the nest. We can't let go at this time. "

Lord Guo on the side shouted: "Shut up, you, what does it mean to miss the mark? Kuang'er, can't you see it? We lost, we lost miserably, the whole court was watching our joke, and we still Do you want to fight? Who do you want to fight with? Who do you want to fight for?"

Guo Kuang was naturally dissatisfied, "It was you who said that I would fight before, but now it's you who say that I won't fight. What do you mean by a total defeat? Qiang'er is still the prince now."

Speaking of Liu Qiang, Guo Shengtong suddenly raised his head, "I don't believe Qiang'er would treat me like this. I am his biological mother, biological mother, blood is thicker than water!"

She obviously already knew about Liu Han's initiative to support Liu Xiu in deposing him.

"Sister. I don't believe it either, but this is indeed true. I am his uncle, you are his biological mother, and your mother is his biological grandmother. He actually said that he could kill us personally, but he could destroy you personally.

Now, in order to please Liu Xiu, he really disowns all his relatives and is so cold-blooded and ruthless.

Doesn't he know that our Guo family and you are his strongest supporters? We want him to be the prince and the next emperor more than anyone else.

He broke his own arm, so what if he could please Liu Xiu? Now that bitch has become the queen, and the power of her Yin family is getting stronger and stronger. She must want her child to become a prince, and try every means to depose Liu Qiang. Such an approach is simply short-sighted! "

Guo Kuang almost yelled out. He couldn't understand how close his uncle was. He supported him but couldn't share his family property.

Lord Guo on the side said with a worried look: "I also can't understand. Qiang'er is precocious and has his own plans. How could he do such a stupid thing? What kind of ecstasy was fed to him by them?

If he does this, you and I both know whether the future of the country belongs to him. "

When Guo Shengtong heard this, he gritted his teeth and said, "No!"

Immediately, he stood up tremblingly, seeming to have exhausted all his strength, and said extremely coldly: "Liu Xiu, you can hate me and hate me, but Qiang'er is also your blood, you can't take advantage of him. Deal with me and then abandon him, no, absolutely not."

Parents love their children and have far-reaching plans. Even if Liu Han treats her like this, she still has plans for him.

Lord Guo on the side said: "Daughter, you should take good care of yourself, Qiang'er is still a prince no matter how bad he is, and he is extremely smart and knows how to protect himself.

But when I thought about you being sent to Beigong, my mother felt really cold. It was all my fault that I listened to your uncle and got obsessed with marrying you to Liu Xiu. I thought that if you married him, you would be A life of prosperity, but I didn't expect that it was just a dream.

If I had known this, I would have married you to an ordinary person, made love, got married and had children. "

She roared towards the roof, "I think that I, Master Guo, was so wise throughout my life that I even traded my daughter's happiness for a moment of power. My daughter, mother, I'm sorry for you."

Lord Guo was born in the Liu clan, the daughter of Prince Zhending Gong Liu Pu. Her family had money and land, which was almost unknown in Hebei. Her elder brother was a prince, and the Guo family she married into was from a wealthy family.

A few years later, her husband died and he became the leader of the Guo family. In Hebei, they were the local emperors, but unlike an imperial family, they needed to inherit the throne, so he loved his daughter and son very much.

The two of them have been treated with fine clothes and fine food since they were young, and they are loved by all. She does not expect her son and daughter to bring him much glory and wealth, because she does not lack these.

She just wants her daughter to be happy. In fact, it is very simple. Just be happy, but it is difficult. The word happiness seems simple, but it is difficult.

If you can’t ask for something and can’t let it go, how many people can ask for something and get something? Even an emperor can't do it, let alone an ordinary person?

Guo Shengtong has also become a mother, and can understand the hard work that mothers put in, mostly for the sake of their children. She hugged her mother and said softly: "No, mother, you are not wrong. I, Guo Shengtong, am destined to marry only one person in my life.

Now I have nothing, so I am not afraid of anything. Mother, I am also a mother now, so I will never allow them to take away Qiang'er, let him deal with me, and then destroy him. I will never allow him. Being stepped on by that woman...

I only married you one year later than her, Yin Lihua. I have done so much for you, but in the end it was all my fault. What did I do wrong? "

"Mother, you are not wrong."

At this time, Liu Han walked in. He had actually been hiding outside the door and watching. He knew that his cheap mother was not bad in nature and was a bit willful of a lady. He also wanted to kill Yin Lihua, but Liu Heng She wasn't the one who ordered it, or he didn't know about it at all.

"Hey, our Crown Prince dares to come to Jiaofang Palace?"

Seeing Liu Han walk in, Guo Kuang on the side became sarcastic, and he emphasized the word "prince" very hard.

"Why, why are you here if you don't want to ask for credit from your father? Do you remember that you have a mother?"

"Boom!"

"oops!"

"what are you doing?"

Liu Han directly kicked Guo Kuang to the ground, "When the Yin family was attacked by bandits, were you the one who sent people there? I won't talk about this matter. It has been a long time. I have warned you long ago, be safe. "More, you didn't kill Liu Heng, and you didn't kill Pearl? There are also Dr. Zhong and his apprentice."

Guo Kuang, who was lying on the ground, ignored the pain. He froze and looked at Guo Shengtong looking at him. He said quibly: "I didn't."

"You dare to say that you don't? Do you really think that God is unaware of it? Do you think that the emperor doesn't know, you think that I don't know, if I hadn't wiped your ass, you would have been killed long ago, killing the prince and destroying the nine tribes."

"I..." Guo Kuang still wanted to quibble, but he couldn't admit it, but when he saw Liu Han's murderous eyes, he didn't dare to speak. He was afraid that if he said one more word, Liu Han would really kill him. He was extremely Confirmed, it was a look that had killed someone.

Seeing his silence, Guo Shengtong looked at him and asked, "Did you really do it?"

He looked at Liu Han, then at Lord Guo, and took a sip of saliva. Seeing his expression, Guo Shengtong knew.

"That doesn't mean you have wronged me. Why are you so stupid? Do you do such a thing?"

"Isn't this all for you?"

"For me, now I'm deposed, you say for me?"

Guo Kuang did not argue with Guo Shengtong and looked at Liu Han, "Qiang'er, we are a family. I am your uncle. Why are you facing outsiders?"

"If you hadn't been my uncle, I wouldn't have killed you even if you had a hundred lives. Someone must have instigated you. Where are those people now?"

"You know all this?"

"explain!"

"I don't know where they went, it's very mysterious."

He didn't tell the truth, and Liu Han didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he knelt down and kowtowed to Guo Shengtong respectfully.

"I'm sorry for my mother, but don't worry. You have no worries about food and clothing in Beigong, so you can relax. Queen is just a title. Some people win the whole world when they stand in front of the father. Emotions are unreasonable. You’re not wrong, don’t be too persistent, you still have several of our children.”

No matter what, Guo Shengtong gave birth to him and planned for him wholeheartedly.

"Get up, mother doesn't blame you, I really don't blame you." ...

In the Yinxing mansion, the shadow of the Yin family was guard Wei Chijun who stepped forward and said: "Sir, the real culprit who killed Pearl has been found. We caught a guard of the Guo family. After being tortured, he recruited the murderer of Pearl. The murderer is Guo Kuang."

The female body paused and said with tears, "I should have expected it to be him."

"Now that both witnesses and material evidence are available, should we find an opportunity to put him..."

Yuchi Jun made a beheading gesture, which clearly meant finding an opportunity to kill him to avenge Pearl.

Yin Xing said helplessly: "Wait a little longer. My sister has just been canonized as queen. Now the Guo family is like a frightened bird. If we attack at this time, the other party will probably jump over the wall. If Master Guo becomes crazy, I'm afraid it will cause some trouble again. Wait. Come on, I will settle things with Guo Kuang sooner or later."

Yuchi Jun didn't persuade him and just pushed it down.

Guo Kuang seemed extremely anxious at this time, walking back and forth.

Lord Guo, who was sitting on the bed, said, "Kang'er, can you sit down? My mother's head is spinning."

"Mother, how can I still sit still now? Now the prince knows that I did all these things, and the evil seems to have been traced to me.

Although the Yin family is the most honored person in the palace, the prince is still a strong man. Most of the civil and military officials in the court support him. The prince's prestige is very high. I will join hands with these princelings to submit a letter to the court tomorrow morning. "

"What are you planning to write about?"

Guo Kuang sneered and said: "Of course it is a matter related to the interests of these old foxes. These princelings are also afraid that Liu Xiu will depose Qiang'er. Once the prince fails, their beautiful mansion will be reduced to nothing."

"So you want it?"

"I first broke the news that His Majesty was going to depose the crown prince, so they were naturally nervous...and then I..."

However, before he could finish his wishful thinking, news came from outside asking him to accept the order.

The chamberlain opened the imperial edict and read out: "Guo Kuang received the edict, and today the court decided to confer Guo Kuang the title of Marquis of Yang'an, reward the Guo family with a hundred golds, and declare to the world that the prince will not be blamed for Empress Guo's affairs..."

This was done by Liu Xiu to protect the prince and to appease the Guo family.

"Thank you, Lord!" Guo Kuang's body trembled, he respectfully received the imperial edict and stood up.

The chamberlain who read out the edict said: "Congratulations to Mr. Guo. Your Majesty told the ministers today that he will not blame the Guo family for the incident involving Empress Guo and influence the prince. He even said that the throne must be passed on to the prince. He will never The deposed prince, I heard that Mr. Guo is ill and cannot go to court, is he feeling better?"

Guo Kuang smiled and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty. I wish you great blessings. It's already going well. Your Majesty is wise."

"Your Majesty, I still have something to do, so I'll take my leave first."

"Sorry for not sending you far!"

Lord Guo sent away the chamberlain who read out the imperial edict, and said quickly: "Kang'er, you must be more restrained recently. It is most important to be able to keep the position of the prince. After all, he is still close to us, and he has taken the throne. When the time comes, Everything is fine."

"I know, mother!"

……

Unfortunately, it didn't take long for his attitude to change because a mysterious man came that night.

Guo Kuang looked at the mysterious man and said angrily: "What should I do now? My sister's position as queen has been abolished, and the Yin family has become the biggest gainer. How dare you come to me?"

The mysterious man smiled slightly, "Do you think the most important things in this world are power, status, wealth, and beauty?"

"Isn't it? Isn't this what you want?"

"No, no, no, you are wrong. There is something far beyond this."

"what?"

"Immortality!"

……

This mysterious man chatted with Guo Kuang for a long time that night, and no one knew what they talked about.

Within a few days, Guo Kuang wrote a letter saying that he was ill and wanted to return to his hometown in Hebei to recuperate. Liu Xiu sent an imperial doctor to see him, and he was indeed seriously ill.

As for Donggong, "Have you lost him?" Liu Han immediately knew that their people had contacted Guo Kuang.

Fatty Liu said helplessly, "It's too difficult to deal with. It would be even more embarrassing to follow them outside the city, but it must be them."

"That's all, you can continue to monitor them. Play a long game and catch the big fish. Don't alert the snake. It's best to catch them all in one catch. By the time I complete the transformation of history, they probably won't have another life. Even if they do, they won't be able to make big waves."

Liu Han waved his hand, then looked at Ayimei and said, "Do you think my cheap uncle is really sick or fake?"

Ayimei shook her head, "I don't know."

"Then let's go take a look?"

"Prince, Prince, Your Majesty and the Queen have summoned you."

But before he had time to look, Liu Xiu and Yin Lihua sent someone to summon him.

"What's the matter?"

"Happy event, great happy event!" the palace man shouted, but did not say anything specific.

"happy event?"

Liu Han, who was confused, had no choice but to enter the palace, but he faced a huge problem, which was the urge to get married at the end of the year!

He is now 17 years old, which is an early age for marriage in Han Dynasty.

The Qin State has been using Legalist ideas to govern the country since Xiao Gong Shang Yang's reform, and its national power has grown day by day. After six generations of hard work, the First Emperor achieved great unification.

Although the laws and regulations of the Qin Dynasty did not clearly stipulate the age of marriage for men and women, it can still be inferred that the Legalist view was adopted on the issue of marriage age, that is, early marriage.

It can be seen from the household registration management of the Qin Dynasty that the rulers of the Qin Dynasty implemented strict control over marriage in order to increase population, taxation, soldiers, and prevent missing people from household registration.

There are historical records: "There is a woman A who is a wife. She died before she could come out. Her body is not six feet tall. Should it be judged inappropriate? If she is an official, it should be judged; if she is not an official, it should not be judged."

秦朝时期1尺相当于今天的23公分，6尺则为138公分，按照秦代的普遍身高男子6尺5寸、女子6尺3寸来算，138公分相当于当时的14、15岁。

Therefore, it can be inferred that the marriage age of men and women in the Qin Dynasty should be around 15 years old. According to historical records, Qin Shihuang's daughter Princess Huayang married General Wang Jian at the age of 15.

Many Han Dynasties almost inherited the Qin Dynasty. In the society at that time, not only the age of marriage was lower among the people, but also there was a tradition of early marriage within the royal family, for the needs of political rule and inheritance of great achievements.

For example, Emperor Wen and Emperor He of the Han Dynasty got married when they were 14 years old, and Emperor Wu and Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty were less than 16 years old when they got married.

Now that Liu Han is 17 years old, it is natural that he should have planned the marriage long ago. Guo Shengtong has been urging the marriage in the past few years, but he was fooled by him using Tai Chi.

However, if you go out to fool around, you will have to pay it back sooner or later, and some things cannot be fooled around.
