Chapter 25
Since ancient times, younger generations should not interfere in the private affairs of their elders. Especially for women, interfering in the backyard of their father and brother will be criticized by the world.
"No." Manager Ji said firmly.
Unlike ordinary women, the princess is the legitimate daughter of the Beiyue clan, and has the right to know the information of every member of the family, as the Marquis has explained. I guess the Marquis did not expect that the little princess would care about this issue, and he was careless. Manager Ji secretly
guess.
"Don't deceive me." Yuan Zhao glanced at him, "Otherwise if someone comes to visit me in the future, I will treat him as a liar."
By then, she couldn't guarantee what she would do to the other party.
"Really not." Manager Ji didn't dare to hide anything. "The Marquis and the Third Young Master have daily routines, and anything that goes beyond the rules must be recorded. If there is no record now, there will be no record in the future."
Even though it declined, the Beiyuezhi's rules were always followed by the Hou Mansion.
In order to ensure the purity of the bloodline, the ancestors stipulated that the children of the clan, regardless of their official status or white status, should not raise foreign relatives. If they did, it would be insignificant and their descendants would not be included in the family tree.
Because the ancestors believed that the children raised outside the family were not restrained, and the children they gave birth to were not necessarily from the Beiyue family, and the clan members did not approve of it.
However, some rules are used to restrain ordinary children.
For example, the mother of Bei Yuesheng, the tyrant of the previous dynasty, was raised by the old Bei Emperor during a summer vacation. The queen was unwell at the time, and he felt guilty as he was dying of old age and did not dare to bring anyone back to the palace to stimulate her.
It wasn't until the queen died of illness that he dared to take his mother and daughter back to the palace.
In order to let his wife into the family tree, the old Bei Emperor fought wits and courage with his clan members and had a long confrontation. Later, the old Bei Emperor pretended to be sick until the ancestors knelt down in front of their ancestors, forcing the clan members to find excuses to let Bei Yue go.
Sheng entered the family tree.
For this reason, the tyrant hated this stubborn rule and immediately issued an order to abolish it after he ascended the throne.
Unexpectedly, that is a clan rule, not a national law.
The only person who has the power to abolish the clan rules is the head of the family. Even if he is an emperor, he has no right to interfere. But the head of the family is none other than King Anping, who holds military power and refuses to give in.
The tyrant was so angry that he began to plan ways to abolish the power of the clan, thus kicking off the civil war...
"The ancestral rules cannot be abolished. As the head of the family, the Marquis has always been strict. The third young master is the most filial person and cannot go against his father's orders. The princess can rest assured." When Manager Ji said this, he glanced at her and said, "Why does the princess have such a problem?"
This question?"
"Fu Ling is in the heart and feels something," Yuan Zhao told him, "When I returned to the house today, I thought about it, what should I do if the woman claims to be the third brother's wife?"
Outsiders don't know the rules of the Beiyue clan, and even if they know, they don't understand. Heirs are the most important thing, and concubines are also concubines. People in the world only know that there are so many powerful people who raise concubines, and they even rush to give their own girls to the children of powerful people to be concubines.
Being an outhouse has certain advantages. It is close to your parents' home, and you don't have to live in the house to be an eyesore and suffer from the mistress's anger.
If today, Yuan Zhao disposes of his brother's wife without saying a word, she will be condemned by the world. She is still young, and even if she is favored by the Holy One, she cannot withstand the strangulation of public opinion. She may not be able to do well in this life.
Fortunately, the other party was not the third brother's mate.
"Hey, it would be great if I could grow up overnight!" Yuan Zhao said in a particularly disappointed tone.
If you make mistakes when you are young, the fault is due to your parents' pampering and indulgence, which damages the reputation of your parents and the same people; if you make mistakes when you grow up, the fault is on yourself, because you can do things for others.
Of course, this refers to small things like killing an outer room.
Conspiracy or something like that, if one person commits an act, the fate of annihilation will be avoided.
"Princess, don't be anxious, you will grow up naturally when you succeed in your studies." Manager Ji couldn't help but smile.
As a child, I wish I could grow up quickly. As everyone knows, growing up has its own worries, no less than when it was a child... After Manager Ji left, Yuan Zhao sat alone in the room, holding his chin with his right hand, and sighed listlessly.
Hey, I really want to grow up quickly and lead troops to fight like my father and brother.
Unlike now, she was suffocated to death by being locked up in the house all day long, either studying or doing trivial chores.
…
At noon, the master and the apprentice came to the main courtyard of the general's mansion, where there was a training ground with the largest area and the most complete weapons in the mansion.
When my father and brother were in the mansion, they often trained their own soldiers here and accompanied them personally.
"Master, you really don't want to teach me medical skills?" Yuan Zhao still had hope, "I can teach you very easily. Once you teach me, I'll do it."
"I'm not ashamed to speak loudly. I'll wait until I learn all the martial arts as a master."
Taoist priest Gongzhi snorted coldly, and flashed into the arena, sometimes fast and sometimes slowly, practicing his moves erratically. Outside the stadium, Yuan Zhao stared at his movements intently, spinning along involuntarily.
After the Taoist master finished a set of kung fu, he asked her to try it out on the spot. Seeing her practice every move without missing a beat, he said:
"..."
Well, no wonder Mr. Wu often said with a smile that being the guest of honor at the General's Mansion was the most relaxing.
Look, the little princess has a foundation in martial arts and a strong learning ability. She can perform the entire set of moves in less than two hours. Her movements are as dexterous and powerful as flowing water, and she can move them freely.
Taoist priest Gongzhi was so excited that he taught her the internal skills in advance and practiced them for half an hour every night before going to bed.
"If you persist in practicing for ten years, you will definitely achieve something." Taoist Master Gongzhi praised her kindly, and gave her a few books, telling her, "Read these medical and medicinal books to pass the time in your free time. If you don't understand, just ask...
"
This is a leisure book he carries with him to kill boring days.
Seeing that her young apprentice was quite talented, he simply agreed to her wishes.
The contents in several books include common diseases (including current epidemics), the most commonly used poisons and medicines among the people, as well as some difficult and complicated diseases and poisons (including antidotes) with no visible symptoms.
Let her watch it for a few days first, and then he will briefly explain it in class.
He already knows what happened at the door of the house today. Smart people can't be idle. When they are idle, they have a lot of thoughts. Too many things to distract her can easily delay her studies. It's better to let her be busy. She will be too busy to mind other things.
He had chatted with the Marquis and learned that he was looking for a doctor among the people to serve as her attendant.
No matter whether she can find it or not, let her know some medicine and pharmacology to avoid being plotted and kept in the dark in the future. After all, who can guarantee that the attendant will be loyal throughout his life?
A bright arrow is easy to block, but a hidden arrow is hard to guard against!
…
Sometimes, fearing that something might happen, late that night, Taoist priest Gongzhi was taken to the military camp overnight by the deputy general who rushed over in a hurry.
"Somehow, a strange disease suddenly broke out on the Yan-Shu border, and the people there were killed and injured countless times." Army Commander Shi briefly explained the matter, "The general ordered the border to be strictly guarded to prevent refugees from escaping, but he still fell victim to the attack.
"
One after another in the army, people fell down. Once the disease broke out, their whole bodies convulsed and they foamed at the mouth.
"How many people have died?" Taoist priest Zheng Zhi asked carefully, "How long does it take from onset of illness to death?"
"Strange to say, there is no death toll yet." Chang Shiqi said, "They are only unconscious. The doctors are helpless, and the locals don't know why. The general ordered the patients to be moved to another camp, and no one else is allowed to approach...
"
The general said that there was a Taoist priest in the mansion who had some medical skills, so he sent someone back to the mansion overnight to invite him to come and have a look.
If even he can't be cured, then something serious will happen.
In addition, Steward Ji received the order and ordered his servants to pack their bags overnight and take the young master to evacuate immediately if the situation becomes serious.
Quietly, don't disturb a certain little ancestor, lest she get too excited and sneak out to cause trouble.
