Da Song: Shhh, I'm really not a prince

Chapter 223 The Debate Before the Reformation Begins
-
subjugation?

Zhao Shi looked at Ouyang Xiu faintly, if what you said was not so exaggerated, you might not be sure...

I just believed it.

Ouyang Xiu scratched his buttocks in embarrassment: "Look, did you see it?"

"Look, I can see it."

Zhao Shi nodded helplessly, then turned his head to look at a stone not far away and said, "Sit over there?"

"it is good."

Immediately,

One old and one young, more or less a little embarrassed after the second year of high school, sat on the stone on the left and right. Zhao Shiyou's down jacket was okay, but Ouyang Xiu was a little cold, and looked enviously at Zhao Shi's body. The long down jacket that countless people in later generations would detest as ugly, was silent for a moment... and said: "It's not all because of my alarmist talk. If you continue to contact her, it's hard to guarantee that you won't arouse Yelu Hongji's anger and cause a bloody battle."

"Yes."

Zhao Shi nodded,
Yelu Hongji doesn't know, but if it's his established wife, even if he changes his identity, if he marries someone else, he can't guarantee that he won't start a bloody battle, just... Turning his head and looking at Ouyang Xiu's old side face, Zhao Shi Youyou said: "Khitan Great Song Dynasty, sooner or later there will be a battle. If this is the case, the existence of Xiao Guanyin is actually not that important."

Ouyang Xiu trembled,
Sure enough... this son is very ambitious, that is: "Have you thought about whether Song Kang can hold it?"

I can't bear it,
Zhao Shi looked at the rustling bamboo grove in the distance: "So, you must first settle down when fighting against the outside world. I think Mr. Ouyang's tossing around today is really a little angry. This is Da Song!"

Ouyang Xiu was silent,
The guess was right, and he was not hiding it, and said honestly: "Nowadays Taixue style is prevalent, and the old minister wants to change this trend."

Zhao Shi nodded,
Taixue style is a very deliberate pursuit of not speaking well. For example, normal people will write that I am going to sleep, but they will write... the hardships of the world, not to mention being too student, even some officials recently At the memorial, they all began to subconsciously pursue uncommon and weird words, which made Zhao Shi deeply loathe, but...

"Teacher Ouyang, do you want me to help?"

Ouyang Xiu's eyesight was not good, and he couldn't tell that Zhao Shi was obviously annoyed, but he pretended not to care, gritted his teeth and said: "If this style of writing is allowed to prevail, the general will not write, and the old minister wants to borrow two or three months later The imperial examination, dismissing students with this style of writing in one fell swoop, it's just..." Ouyang Xiu looked at Zhao Shi.

Zhao Shi was a little silent, he didn't have himself in his previous life, Ouyang Xiu also gritted his teeth and dismissed these students, although it caused a lot of trouble, but in the end he reversed his style of writing little by little, in fact, he didn't really need his help ,but……

"can."

Zhao Shi was silent for a while and agreed, but this reaction made Ouyang Xiu a little grateful, and then he was about to speak, when Zhao Shi continued: "It's just that I also have some small reforms, and I want to ask the teacher for help."

Ouyang Xiu frowned,

It's not that he doesn't want to, but he feels that Zhao Shi is still young, and he has never experienced the failure of the Qingli New Deal that he experienced, so his reforms may be too radical: "Your Highness, you have ambition, and the veteran is deeply comforted, but... ...Nowadays, the Song Dynasty is in a precarious state, and it seems to be safe, but in fact, it is always handled with care, if..."

"do not worry."

Although Zhao Shi was young, he always acted after making decisions: "If I am not prepared, I will not tear up the court all at once."

Ouyang Xiu breathed a sigh of relief, but he was still a little worried: "Then what does Your Highness want the old minister to do?"

"No close relatives are allowed to marry."

"Ok?"

Ouyang Xiu was stunned for a moment, Zhao Shi adjusted his sitting posture, moved closer to Ouyang Xiu, and said in a low voice: "I once read an ancient book, and in that ancient book, it was recorded that not only people of the same sex, but those who marry within three generations of the same blood have a great probability of producing less healthy offspring."

Ouyang Xiu was taken aback for a moment, and then looked at Zhao Shi quietly: "Your lord wants to destroy Princess Fukang's marriage?"

"Yes."

Zhao Shi nodded honestly: "However, if you just want to break up a marriage, there is really no need to go around such a big detour. I still want to change our Song Dynasty's custom of marriage between close relatives."

Ouyang Xiu frowned slightly, got up and took a few steps, then sat back and said, "Are you sure that there is a hidden danger in close relative marriage?"

"It's true."

Zhao Shi nodded, he wanted to start trying to change Da Song little by little from some small details, just as Ouyang Xiu said, this Da Song seems to be safe, but in fact it is in danger of pouring out at the touch of it, Zhao Shi didn't feel that he Can be stronger than Wang Anshi and Fan Zhongyan, even if he comes from later generations, so his idea is to start with some small details, even if it fails, to make changes, and then slowly accumulate experience, raise strength, and finally completely Change Da Song: "Teacher, would you like to help me?"

Ouyang Xiu then... got up and paced, then lowered his head and asked, "Are you sure there is a hidden danger?"

Zhao Shi was a little helpless: "If the teacher doesn't believe it, you and I might as well go and find those close relatives and ordinary couples to observe, and the result will be known at a glance." Ouyang Xiu stopped talking, started pacing back and forth again, and then He stopped and turned his head: "Nowadays, the vast majority of people cannot leave their homeland for the rest of their lives, all relying on the union of relatives. If you and I implement this method, it is not..."

Zhao Shi nodded,
Ouyang Xiu's question is considered to be on the point, but: "The teacher underestimated the desire of men and women to marry. If there is no such method, they may not be able to leave their homeland. However, if there is such a method, it is impossible to say..."

"impossible."

Ouyang Xiu didn't know what came to his mind, he was hesitant just now, but now he is a bit decisive, and even rejected: "At first glance, this method seems to be harmless to human relations, but if it is vigorously implemented, it will definitely bring about unstoppable consequences, old minister Even if I bear the wrath of those thousands of students alone, I will never do what His Highness asks."

Zhao Shi was stunned, and inevitably became a little angry, and said strangely, "Could it be that Teacher Ouyang really has the intention of marrying a close relative?"

Ouyang Xiu trembled,
Zhao Shi is punishing him!

He almost couldn't hold back to pinch Zhao Shi's neck, and roared, "That's just Jia Changchao's words to slander the old man, doesn't Your Highness know about it?"

"Yes..." Zhao Shi leaned on the stone, looked at Ouyang Xiu quietly and said, "I knew it before, but now I still have my doubts."

Ouyang Xiu gritted his teeth: "Is this how your Highness does things?"

"Then how?"

Zhao Shi also sat up, his voice inevitably raised: "Great change the world, not to mention you, even I am timid and cautious, for fear of accidentally puncturing this wrecked boat, what about a small change? A small change I have told you clearly, if you don’t believe me, you might as well go and see for yourself. There must be hidden dangers in the marriage of close relatives. Can’t you understand such an obvious thing? If you really can’t understand, then no wonder the students think you ...don't make any plans."

"This……"

Sometimes Zhao Shi was too calm, he wasn't angry, Ouyang Xiu was bluffing, but when he got angry, Ouyang Xiu calmed down again, but said: "If so, it's still the same problem, the marriage between men and women may be out of balance."

This is not the afterlife,

Zhao Shi said unhappily: "The number of women is more than three times that of men. We just need to encourage young men and women to move around more. Besides, men's life expectancy is much shorter than women's. Several years ago, there were repeated wars. Men are scarce. If women can remarried..."

"That won't work."

Ouyang Xiu straightened his head again, spitting and spitting wildly: "Human relations are normal, if women are allowed to remarry, the world will be disturbed, and the sun and the moon will reverse..."

Grass!
Zhao Shiben was a very peaceful person, at least with a peaceful expression, but at this time he couldn't help standing up, standing on a rock, and spitting at Ouyang Xiu condescendingly: "Your thinking is so old, it is really recognizable. As for vomiting, let’s not talk about women’s rights, but talk about national interests. Although women are not as capable of fighting on the battlefield as men, this is what you think, but to imprison women who have lost their husbands in their twenties, thirty, or even ten years old What good is a wasted life doing to this country?"

Ouyang Xiu's face turned purple from anger, and just as he was about to retaliate, Zhao Shi continued: "No, but if you can mobilize their enthusiasm, even if in your eyes, women are useless except husbands and sons, then you can teach them more." How many children!"

Ouyang Xiu was startled...

Ouyang Xiu is not the kind of person who is so rigid that he is not enlightened at all, and he is not a practitioner of Cheng Zhu Neo Confucianism. He is just arguing with Zhao Shi out of instinct. As if the water rushed a bit, he stared blankly at Zhao Shi: "Yes!"

Regardless of anything, even if a woman is mobilized to move a brick, that is... a brick!
but……

Then,

Ouyang Xiu's eyebrows frowned again. He was a little moved by Zhao Shi's words, but he was different from Zhao Shi. Knowing how difficult it is for Zhao Shi to do this.

"The old minister can ask Mr. Lang to say this, that is... what if the court shakes?"

"Then let it go."

Zhao Shi didn't notice that Ouyang Xiu had begun to change his mind slightly, he was still in a state of excitement, upon hearing this, he stood on the stone and answered harshly, and then said quietly: "We must let them... Get used to it first."
