Chapter 375 Forced Marriage
The first one is to abolish the multi-concubine system. Although monogamy has been practiced in Yanyang County, it is not mandatory, and there is no benefit to registering for marriage like in Chenyang Country.

Therefore, the Palace of Marriage in Yanyang County has always been in a state that is often talked about, but not many people go there, except for some loving young men and women who will go to prove how steadfast their love is when they get married. Nobody's there.

After Li Cai's incident, Su Tang asked Lin Qing to send someone to investigate. Since the people's lives have become better, there are quite a few families where men use their brains to marry concubines.

Every family in Yanyang County has a good life. Outside of Yanyang County, there are still many poor families with leaky houses. There are many people who want to enter Yanyang County to be concubines. In a good house, using lights is a crowd-pleasing thing.

Su Tang has worked hard for so long, but he didn't want to see this kind of situation. He immediately ordered that every household be forced to register at the Marriage Hall. From then on, it is forbidden to marry concubines in Yanyang County.

He also told the common people that if he secretly married a concubine, his wife could go to the government to sue. The man and the concubine’s room would be punished if they knowingly committed a crime. consider.

The concubine's room will also not be protected by the law. If you know that the other party is married, but still insist on being with him, and you are cheated of money and sex in the end, you will bear the consequences yourself.

In this way, many possibilities can be eliminated. The wife is definitely not willing to see her husband taking a concubine. Men are afraid that their wives will sue to divide up the family property, and concubines are afraid that the man will abandon them in disorder and end up with nothing.

With so many obstacles, he will not be as reckless as before.

"Your Highness, since the new decree came down, after dinner, all the talk about marriage is in the streets and alleys, and they are clearly divided into two camps. The women are overjoyed, and the men are dissatisfied. It's a woman, so it's naturally biased towards women, but it's just that they suffer from the men who make money to support their families."

Su Tang and Yingyue came out today to observe the reactions of the common people, and sat down in a tea house. The people who came and went basically talked about this matter. After all, the new marriage system concerns everyone.

"Let them talk. If they talk for a long time, they will accept their fate." Su Tang didn't care.

Ancient times also have the benefits of ancient times. For example, there are no public elections here. In terms of democracy, the royal family is the absolute authority, and whatever is said is what cannot be questioned.

There will be no people parading in the streets to protest or anything. Who dares to protest the imperial court? If they hide in an alley and say something bad about the royal family, they will be beheaded if they hear it.

No matter how unfavorable the series of policies introduced by Su Tang are to men, no one will really dare to stand up and say something if they complain at most.

Only people with big families and powerful families dared to express their dissatisfaction. Ordinary people only complained for a while before accepting the facts.

Besides, Su Tang didn't block their way. Those who don't accept the new marriage law can move out of Yanyang County, and the government will make it easier for them to deal with household registration and other issues.

They can't bear the prosperity here, so they can't blame others.

Su Tang looked at the city full of high-rise buildings, horse-drawn carriages and bicycles coming and going on the flat avenue, crowded with people, this place finally had a modern feeling, a taste of hometown.
