The eldest daughter of the emperor, she began to build a city wildly

Chapter 374-Equality
"Your Highness, there is one more request from the housewife. Since Li Cai has some money, he has been out drinking and drinking all day long, and often comes home drunk. There are still four daughters left for him at home. The housewife is worried, especially the youngest daughter. She's only two or three years old, and she still can't live without people, I hope His Highness can let the women take the little daughter by her side to take care of her."

Now with the development of Yanyang County becoming more and more prosperous, more and more caravan tourists from all walks of life come here. When there are more people, they will naturally spend here, and the income of the people will also increase accordingly.

Anyone who is a bit smart can make money by setting up a small stall or something, and honest people can save some savings by farming and raising silkworms at home.

In Yanyang County now, even ordinary people, compared with the people in other places, can be considered to be living a relatively well-off life.

The poor and fearful people have money, so they will naturally want to experience the life they have never experienced before. Once they go to the gentle hometown of spending time and wine, they will always miss it and go again and again.

"My daughter is from the blood of my Li family. How can I let you be taken away by someone with a foreign surname? You must be more courageous because your highness is making decisions for you."

Li Cai, who originally felt that he was suffering, became anxious when he saw that this man not only divided her property but also robbed his daughter.

If it was in the past, he definitely wouldn't want a money-losing product like his daughter, but now it's different. In order to be able to come to Yanyang County, outsiders who couldn't afford a house thought of another way.

That is to marry into Yanyang County. In the past two years, the young men in Yanyang County have been very popular, and at the same time, women have also become popular, because as long as a man enters the family, he can get the household registration of Yanyang County, and later become Yanyang County. people.

Even though these four are daughters, they might be able to recruit four son-in-laws in the future, and Li Cai knew better than anyone else that they would not raise them for nothing.

"My daughter is also the meat that fell out of my stomach. Why did I become an outsider? Besides, you used to call your daughter a loser all day long. Why can't you bear it now?"

Liu Chun wanted to question him, but if he spoke loudly, the bruise on his face would be affected, and the pain was very severe, and his momentum was inevitably weakened a lot.

"Anyway, no, I can't let you take my daughter away, and call someone else to be her father in the future."

"..."

While talking, the two wanted to quarrel again, Su Tang wanted to knock on the gavel, but before she could make a move, Lin Qing stepped forward, "Qu Jing, this is not a place for you to fight."

Or it is said that it is difficult for an honest official to decide on housework. They each have their own reasons, and those who have no reason will start to be unreasonable.

Su Tang turned his gaze to the crowd of onlookers in the front, "We have been advocating equality recently, but does anyone know what equality is?"

Those onlookers found that Su Tang was looking at them and asked, and they stood up excitedly and spoke one by one.

"Equality means that when others bully me, when they beat me, I can sue them."

"Equality is when the government accidentally arrests the wrong person. We also have the opportunity to defend ourselves, and we will not be beaten into tricks."

"Equality is that when I work, the owner pays me, so I don't have to be beaten for no reason and get paid."

"Equality means that people enjoy equal treatment and equal rights socioeconomically and politically."

Amidst the clamor of a group of people, a little girl in her teens spoke, and the loud noise spread throughout the audience, and all the adults shut up immediately.

They found that although they didn't understand what the child said, they seemed to be very knowledgeable. Even His Highness nodded silently for the little girl.

This is why Su Tang is committed to the free school. The common people must be educated before they can understand. "Anyone who doesn't understand should go back and ask their children what this sentence means."

Where are the common people willing to go home and ask, those who sit close to the little girl, go directly to study if they are thirsty.

"In plain English, you can have the rights that others enjoy, and there is no distinction between high and low, adults and children, men and women,

For example, in this case, if it was changed to before, the daughter belonged to the blood of the Li family, so she would naturally stay in the Li family. However, under the concept of equality, Li Cai is the father of the child, and Liu Chun is the mother of the child. , have the right to take away their children. "

The little girl spoke clearly and logically, and the adults around her understood what Su Tang wanted to express.

At the same time, some men began to ponder with serious faces. His Highness has been advocating equality. He didn't think it was a big deal before. Now, after encountering something, he realizes that under equality, the former lofty status of men seems to fall again and again.

For example, Li Cai's matter, if it was put in the past, it would definitely give Liu Chun a reputation for being unfeminine, divorce his wife and drive him out of the house.

But now, Liu Chun can take away the house and property, and maybe even take away the children. For men, they seem to have suffered a lot.

But isn't it beneficial for them to be equal?There are also, for example, you don’t have to sell yourself as a slave, and you can work for the master’s family all your life, so that you can have the right to freedom, and you can get paid for your work, which is undoubtedly a great benefit.

Those who really feel that they are not good are those men from powerful families. Their high positions seem to have been pulled down a lot, and their wives and divorce may take away their children.

Even the servants at home are no longer his. If they beat and scold at will, the servants can not only leave at any time, but they may even go to the government to sue him. Now that I think about it carefully, it is really not as good as before.

"Your Highness, it's not fair!" Li Cai yelled for injustice. Everything that originally belonged to him was taken away. Can this still be called fair?

But if you call it unfair when His Highness is talking about fairness, I'm afraid your head is flooded.

"The eldest daughter, the second daughter will be raised by Li Cai, the third daughter, and the fourth daughter will be raised by Liu Chun. This case is over." Su Tang didn't care what he shouted.

Under equality, some people's interests will definitely be touched, but Su Tang doesn't care, and he can leave Yanyang County if he doesn't accept it.

Those who want to enjoy all the benefits of Yanyang County and maintain their superior status, it is better not to have such daydreams.

However, after this case, Su Tang issued several new decrees, which brought a storm to Yanyang County.
