Demoting the Wife to a Concubine? The Reborn Legitimate Daughter Crippled his Entire Family.

This is the benefit of being an emperor and a powerful person. The draft can be conducted in a grand manner. Even if you are already very old, you can still choose 18-year-old women to serve in the palace.

The chosen woman must not resist, otherwise the whole family will suffer.

After Shen Ning finished drinking the chicken soup, she sweated a little again.

However, she had just taken a bath and it was impossible for her to take another bath, so she just leaned against the bed quietly, waiting for her mind to calm down and cool down naturally.

Ji Yucang ordered people to guard the place and went out temporarily for a while. Just then, the steward's voice sounded outside: "Princess."

Shen Ning turned around: "Come in."

Shi Qi and Shi Qin stood in front of the bed and watched the stewardess come in. They bowed respectfully and reported: "My cousin committed suicide and was rescued. She kept crying and said that she knew she had done something wrong before and wanted to beg the prince and princess. Forgive her once, she doesn’t want to marry that General Yang.”

After a pause, "My cousin also said that if the princess is still angry, can she change the punishment method? She is willing to be beaten and punished, as long as she is not forced to marry."

Shen Ning looked at her expressionlessly: "Didn't the prince order her to be in confinement? Has grandma been very interested in her these past two days?"

"I don't dare." The nun in charge knelt down quickly. "I was just frightened by my cousin's act of committing suicide, so I ordered people to pay special attention to it. I didn't dare to cause any harm to anyone. I beg the princess to take a closer look."

Shen Ning said calmly: "Since it is the decision made by the prince, I will not interfere. Go and tell her that General Yang is a soldier who protects the family and the country and is worthy of being entrusted to him for life. As long as she serves her mother-in-law and husband well after she gets married. , take care of the inner house with peace of mind, General Yang will not treat her badly. "

"Yes." The steward took the order and retreated.

"If I had known this, why did I do it in the first place?" Shi Qin said coldly, "A cousin girl who depends on others dares to poison the prince and princess. If it weren't for that little blood relationship, she would have died eight hundred times, how could she still survive? Any chance of getting married?"

Shi Qi bent down to wipe off Shen Ning's sweat: "My cousin is jealous of the princess. She feels that the princess has robbed her of her identity, and she is unwilling to do so, so she repeatedly commits the following crimes. But if the prince has any thoughts about her, why wait until today?"

Shen Ning said nothing.

She had no hostility toward Gu Yanran. After all, when she first married Ji Yucang, she never thought of becoming a real couple with him. Of course, she couldn't take the initiative to create an imaginary enemy for herself.

If Gu Yanran is willing to live in peace with her, then neither she nor Ji Yucang will embarrass her in her marriage. It is her duty as the matron of the house to choose a well-matched husband for her.

Unfortunately, Gu Yanran obviously didn't think so.

It's just jealous and unwilling, but stupid enough to be taken advantage of.

Which high-ranking and powerful family would marry such a woman to be the head mistress?

But Shen Ning frowned immediately.

Nowadays, women with a little bit of family background seem to be born to be a qualified matron. They receive strict instruction from an early age. In addition to being meek, humble, virtuous and virtuous, they also need to learn the methods of being dignified, generous, and both gracious and powerful.

Every word, every action, every move is as if carved from the mold, without the slightest mistake.

Shen Ning was once a princess, and she was also required to learn the moral character that these women should have. She was taught that after marriage, she should look after her husband, raise her children, and serve her mother-in-law. If she had not gone to the battlefield later, her life would have been nothing like that of an ordinary noble girl. Both.

"What are you thinking about?" Ji Yucang walked into the inner room and saw that Shen Ning was in a daze again. He raised his hand and rubbed her head, "Are you bored?"

Shen Ning came back to her senses: "I was thinking that men can go to war, become officials, and do business, but women are always required to be a good housekeeper. Isn't it a bit unreasonable?"

Ji Yucang said: "This is the difference in the division of labor between men and women."

"Do you think this division of labor is reasonable?"

Ji Yucang's expression was a little subtle: "Then Ning'er thinks that men stay at home to take care of their wives and raise children, while women go out to show their faces?"

Shen Ning frowned: "It doesn't have to be so absolute. There should be a compromise."

"Although women are weak, they are not without heroes to fight for." Ji Yucang's eyes fell on her face, "A woman like Ning'er who is not inferior to men should indeed be reused."

Shen Ning shook his head: "Women are naturally not as strong as men. They have been restrained in the boudoir since childhood. It is difficult to practice martial arts. Moreover, there are mostly men in the military camp. Who would allow women to go to the battlefield unless they have to? But studying is different. Most women from wealthy families They have read poetry and books since they were young, and there are many women who have a broad mind for the world. They should have the same rights as men to take scientific examinations and become officials. "

Ji Yucang didn't say yes or no, but just looked at him deeply: "The male is the guide for the female. Men think that these are the rules set by God for men and women, and they cannot be violated easily, so if Ning'er wants to To fight for women's rights, you must first stand at the pinnacle of power and hold the absolute right to speak, and maybe you can change something."

Shen Ning closed her eyes and said nothing, not knowing what she was thinking.

Ji Yucang knew that Shen Ning would not bring up this matter for no reason, so he stood up and walked to the door to ask a few questions. He learned that the steward had come and heard that Gu Yanran was making noises about not wanting to marry. With a cold expression, he called Ling Feng : "Yanran Ju will be guarded over there. Gu Yanran will leave the pavilion early the next morning. During this period, no one is allowed to come and disturb the princess' rest."

"yes."

No matter how much trouble Yanranju made in the next two days, not a single movement could reach Jinlin Courtyard.

Even if Gu Yanran smashed everything she could, the maids didn't dare to stop her, they just cleaned up the mess she made over and over again.

Ji Yucang was not used to her, and all the things that were smashed in the past few days were deducted from her dowry. Because the princess was unwell, Gu Yanran's dowry was except for some that her aunt had left for her, and the rest was for the housekeeper. The list drawn up by the accountant, the accountant and the steward in the past few days was given to Ji Yucang for review and prepared.

Because this wedding was hastily arranged and had a punitive tone, Gu Yanran's dowry was not very generous - compared to her status as the regent's cousin, it was not too generous.

But as long as Gu Yanran lives peacefully after marrying, the dowry will be enough to support her to live a comfortable life in the Yang family.

In addition, because it was a renewal of the relationship, General Yang, who was marrying his wife, was already old, and the wedding ceremony was not huge and quite satisfactory. Full of unwillingness and resentment, Gu Yanran sat in a sedan chair escorted by a few dowry carefully selected by Ji Yucang. Leaving the Regent's Palace and heading to her husband's house.
