Chapter 473: Self-Cultivation and Family Harmony

The ministers were stunned.

"Do you have any objections to this?" Chu Qinghuang asked lightly, "Today's morning meeting is very long, and I plan to set aside two hours to discuss this issue with you. If you have any dissatisfaction, Feel free to put it forward and I will consider it as appropriate.”

The ministers looked at each other with different expressions.

The more they listened, the more they felt that what His Majesty said today was very unreasonable, just like local bullies oppressing defenseless people, testing the bottom line step by step, and pushing people to desperate situations. They strongly opposed it in their hearts, but...

dissatisfied?

Who dares to be dissatisfied with Her Majesty the Queen, instead of sending it to her door to cut it for her?

Moreover, the Queen was very angry at the moment. I heard that she was busy very late last night and probably slept for less than an hour. She even personally brought those innocent girls to Changming Palace for questioning.

Normally when you are calm, you feel like you are not easy to mess with. Now when you are angry, who dares to express your dissatisfaction?

When everyone thought like this, they couldn't help but blame Chu Tianyin in their hearts.

You said that it's your own business to remain evil, so why are you dragging an innocent girl into the water? Are you still planning to give those girls to officials in the DPRK and China in order to control them?

It’s simply sinister and sinister!

All the ministers felt scared when they thought about it. If he really succeeded, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Although Chu Tianyin's conspiracy was exposed and he suffered the consequences, he also caused them to suffer.

Originally, they were free to have as many concubines as they wanted, but this was great.

Even the affairs of the family have been interfered with. After a while, will the Queen directly issue a decree that only one husband and one wife are allowed and no concubines are allowed?

"If no one objects, I will continue." Chu Qinghuang said calmly, not caring what kind of waves his words would stir up in the hearts of ministers. "Ministers below the third rank, in addition to their wives, can have at most two wives. The concubine's room, the common room and the outer room are also not allowed."

The ministers frowned and listened gloomily.

"If the husband is irresponsible and unlucky, causing unrest in the family, the wife can propose reconciliation and divorce." Chu Qinghuang made another surprising statement, "This can be written into the law and strictly enforced from top to bottom. The ancient sage said: Cultivate your moral character, manage your family, govern your country, and bring peace to the world. All of you here are scholars. Only by cultivating your moral character and rectifying your own body can you set an example and become the pillars of the country. "

"My Emperor is a wise man." Yun Heng, who was involved in political affairs in the imperial study room, came out and bowed in salute. "The sage said: If the mind is upright, then the body will be cultivated. If the body is cultivated, then the family will be in order. After the family is in order, the country will be governed. After the country is governed, the world will be peaceful. What your Majesty is discussing today. , all follow the example of the saints, and they should be respected and obeyed."

The young courtiers in the court stood up in unison and saluted respectfully: "I obey the will of Her Majesty the Queen. Long live my Emperor!"

The students selected in the first year of the Queen's accession to the throne have all shown little performance after nearly a year of experience. Chu Qinghuang has cultivated these people intentionally or unintentionally. Now they have become a considerable force in the court, and they are faintly distinguished from the veterans. A counter-balanced stance.

They are loyal and pure Queen's party. Although their official positions are not high, they are very courageous. They are the newborn calves not afraid of tigers. They do not look forward or backward in doing things. As long as they think they are following the right emperor, they will be loyal till death.

The old ministers in the city often have nothing to do with them.

Chu Qinghuang's eyes turned slightly, but his voice remained calm and unruffled: "In the coming days, I will focus on renovating the Goulan Jiaofang area. Sirs, you may wish to check when you go back to see if anyone has been placed in your mansion. Beauty chess piece, since Chu Tianyin can think of using beauty as bait, it proves that someone has tried this method, and it is obviously very effective. "

After these words were spoken, the ministers were naturally shuddered again, and they all knelt down: "I am terrified!"

There are many beautiful concubines in their backyard. They shouldn't be taken advantage of, right?

"From now on, if there are those who forcefully buy young girls from good families in the brothels, they will be severely punished. Those who voluntarily sell themselves out of desperation must have an official letter from the government to prove it. Otherwise, they will be regarded as contempt of the law and the crime will be increased." Chu Qinghuang read. To the adults in the front, "Prince Rong and several adults from the cabinet will stay later, and the three ministers from the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of Personnel will follow me to the imperial study room to discuss matters. In addition,"

After a slight pause in his tone, Chu Qinghuang calmly threw a thunderbolt: "Now that Xiqi and Northern Xinjiang are at war, I plan to marry the Yan Kingdom and let the Yan Kingdom's crown prince marry into Xiqi and become my true king and husband. My lords, You should have no objection, right?”
