Chapter 278 Patriarchal Law
The Empress Dowager’s bedroom, the inner hall.
Princess Zhaoyang went around to please the Queen Mother in every possible way, and finally made the Queen Mother turn from anger to anger.
Reaching out and tapping Princess Zhaoyang’s nose, the Queen Mother forgave her for not being firm and holding her back halfway.
"The Imperial Grandmother is not angry anymore?"
"Who said I am angry? If I am angry with a little girl like you, I am afraid that I will be angry to death."
"Hee hee, I knew the imperial grandmother was the best."
After the rainbow fart was presented, Princess Zhaoyang rolled her eyes, walked to the Queen Mother, and suggested: "Why not, Let’s just let Jia Lian go. In fact, my granddaughter thought about it seriously just now and feels that he is not good at all.
A married man is not worthy of me.”
"Do you really think so, or are you afraid that I will be angry with Jia Lian, so you are trying to excuse him?"
The Queen Mother asked with a smile.
"Of course I really think so! Humph, he doesn't look down on me, and I don't look down on him."
Princess Zhaoyang quickly replied, Finally, a hint of resentment appeared in her eyes, which was keenly caught by the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother secretly shook her head. She knew that her great-niece had a free and easy personality and was arrogant. The more she was like this, the more it showed that she had different feelings towards Jia Lian.
From this, he became increasingly annoyed with Jia Lian for his stubbornness and disobedience.
What a shameless brat!
The Queen Mother scolded Jia Lian in her heart, and then said: "You don't have to plead for him anymore, I want to see how capable he is and how much pressure he can withstand!"
She originally wanted to accomplish this quietly and try to keep the negative impact to a minimum.
Who knew that Jia Lian would not cooperate. After today, the news that she had chosen Jia Lian as her grandson-in-law would spread.
Soon, everyone who needs to know will know.
As long as she doesn’t let go, the pressure on Jia Lian will increase day by day.
As for the impact on her, in comparison, people think that Jia Lian's "ignorance of good and evil" can be ignored.
As the saying goes, being strong without desire means she is not involved in politics, nor does she need to help her children or her family to seek benefits.
She is the only grandniece who is dear to her heart. No matter how much she does for her, Emperor Ning Kang and others will understand.
Besides, if you don’t act a little willful, how can that old woman relax her vigilance...
The old eunuch came in and reported everything Yuan Chun and Jia Lian said before they left. After the Queen Mother nodded, she immediately ordered: "Go to see Your Majesty and report to Your Majesty the matter of Jia Lian of Rongguo Mansion lending money regardless of national law. Tell me what I mean, please punish me as appropriate."
Seeing the old eunuch take the order, Zhaoyang was a little worried: "Grandma Huang..."
"Don't worry Well, you, my father, have the right idea."
The Queen Mother interrupted Princess Zhaoyang's plea for mercy, "Hey, Xiaonizi, you dare to say that you don't like her, why are you so concerned?"
Without explaining to Zhaoyang more about Emperor Ning Kang’s character, the Queen Mother turned around and asked: "How about it? What do you think of the compromise proposed by Jia Yuanchun?"
Princess Zhaoyang naturally knew what the Queen Mother meant, so both parties took a step back and gave the Wang family the identity of a concubine to silence Jia Lian.
As a woman, who has never dreamed of being together for the rest of her life? But the reality is that it is impossible, unless she is willing to find a mediocre man, or a man who she can completely control and is willing to submit to the authority of the royal family.
But this goes against her principle of choosing a husband.
What she needs is a man who is upright and ambitious.
How could such a person be controlled by a woman?
Therefore, she never thought that her future husband could only be a woman of hers. As long as the other woman was good enough, she would naturally be willing to obey the four virtues and not be suppressed by her royal status.
If it weren’t for such high standards, she wouldn’t be married today.
So, if Jia Lian is really who she thinks he is, and if so, Jia Lian also likes her, she can naturally tolerate a Wang family who has taken the lead.
But the fact is that Jia Lian has not fully expressed his ambition, but he has made his dislike of her clear.
Now she eagerly agrees to let the Wang family grow up, but later Jia Lian won't agree at all. Doesn't it look like she is very embarrassed?
So he said: "Royal Grandmother, if we can only use our power and compromise to force Jia Lian to submit, then even if he agrees to marry me, he must not be sincere.
If so In this case, my granddaughter would rather not marry."
Strangely enough, in her heart she hoped that Jia Lian would adopt Jia Yuanchun's suggestion, but she also didn't.
Just now, Jia Lian's words in the main hall deeply touched her, which made her admiration for Jia Lian rise to the extreme, so she was willing to help Jia Lian intercede.
But if Jia Lian turned around and succumbed to authority and forced Wang to be smaller, wouldn't his previous words appear to be unreasonable and hypocritical? This lowered Jia Lian’sCharisma.
Putting aside everything else, she hoped that Jia Lian would be a man who would rather break than bend.
Seeing the entangled emotions in Zhaoyang’s eyes, the Queen Mother patted her arm and sighed softly: "You are still young. You don’t know how many times a woman can meet a man who makes her heart beat in this life. How rare.
Never make a decision that you will regret for the rest of your life because of temporary favors and loyalty.
Happiness needs to be striven for.”
The Queen Mother spoke quietly, not expecting Zhaoyang to understand. The girl who has been pampered by her since she was a child is arrogant and may not even understand the word emotion. How can she know how to cherish and regret?
So, she has to help her.
……
In Rongguo Mansion, because Jia Lian has not returned, Jia Mu and others became anxious and became ants on the hot pot.
I was afraid that bad news would come from the palace in the next moment.
Until Eunuch Xia came with a message from Yuanchun.
Xia Shouzhong received Yuan Chun's earnest entrustment, but he did his best to tell Jia Mu and others what Yuan Chun had told him.
Afterwards, he also reminded: "This matter has been spread in the palace now. The old lady and Mr. Zheng, you two have to persuade Mr. Lian carefully. It's very important. Don't ruin a huge happy event."
"Yes, yes, yes, we know, we must persuade him..."
"Father-in-law, please ..."
After sending Eunuch Xia away, everyone in the Jia Mansion became even more unable to sit still.
In the front hall of Rongqing Hall, Jia Zhen suddenly stood up and said anxiously: "Old lady, this matter is very relevant. We must not let Brother Lian do anything nonsense anymore.
That is the Queen Mother’s decree, who dares to disobey it?
If the Lian brothers are allowed to continue to cause trouble, our family may be in great trouble..."
< br />Jia Zhen said almost jumping.
The matter was so important that he, the patriarch, could not sit still. He escorted Jia Mu and others back to the house, and has been waiting here for news.
Even Youshi heard the sound and came over.
Jia Mu and others all felt that what Jia Zhen said was reasonable. Among them, Mrs. Wang was most worried that Jia Lian's willfulness would ruin Yuan Chun's favor, so after careful consideration, she said: "I'm afraid, Lian'er is not A person who listens to advice.
She even dares to reject the Queen Mother’s words. I’m afraid she may not listen to our words.”
Jia Zhen saw that Jia Zheng and others were all talking to him. One heart, one confidence, one cold eye, oneHe patted the handle of the chair and said seriously: "On other matters, considering his young age, we can let him go.
But this matter is definitely not possible today!
Jia Zhen paused, and Jia Zheng and others looked at him with shock and expectation in their eyes.
Jia Zhen saw the situation and spoke out generously.
"When brother Huilian comes back, we should try to persuade him. If he is as stubborn as my wife said, I think we can only ask the clan to punish him!"
When Youshi and others heard this, their hearts skipped a beat.
The so-called patriarchal law, the law of the clan, is the ancestral family law and education with sticks.
This is the last and most powerful measure taken against those unscrupulous children who cannot speak properly, that is, forcefully teach them how to behave.
If I still have something to say to my son, it would be better to give him a beating.
But Jia Lian no longer has his father, nor his grandfather. If we want to use family law against him, we can only use clan law!
However, the children who are generally treated by clan law are already beyond the power of their immediate elders to discipline and are "heinous" people. Such people, after being summoned to clan law, there is a high probability that they will be punished. Expelled from the family.
The Jia family has not invited a clan ruler for many years.
Jia Zhen’s heart burned with the flames of jealousy.
If you just disobey him and steal his limelight, as a clan leader, it’s not that he can’t tolerate it.
But Jia Lian should never, absolutely should not, should not seduce his Ke Qing!
No one knows how much his heart hurts when Jia Lian’s words appear on the desk of his daughter-in-law Keqing, who has spent two years trying but failed.
At this moment, it is the opportunity for revenge.
He hoped that Jia Lian would be tough to the end and not listen to advice.
The Queen Mother is used to bossing around, but when she suddenly encounters a disobedient young man, she will inevitably lose control of her temper. Everyone needs to understand.
