The noise continued, but Du Tingyun didn't tolerate them at all. With a wave of his hand, he had people drive them all away!
Yichen frowned and whispered, "Does the girl think what those men said is reasonable?"
Liu Shengsheng raised her eyebrows, "Why do you ask?"
"Because girls are women, if monogamy is really enforced, for girls..."
"No, no, even if I am a woman, these things have nothing to do with me."
Liu Shengsheng said calmly: "First of all, these men are not doing it for the good of the woman, they are just doing it for themselves. Even if monogamy is implemented in the future, it is estimated that a large number of girls from poor families would rather be secretive. If you are adopted by a rich and powerful family or become a maid, you may not want to stay in a small mountain village where boys are highly valued, even if it happens thousands of years later."
"Besides, do you think these people really want to marry a wife? They keep saying that they want to abolish the system of three wives and four concubines, but then they turn around and keep saying that poor families also need to carry on the family line."
"It can be seen that for them, women are just tools to carry on the family line. The strong believe that women are resources, and the weak also think so. They have never treated women sincerely. In this case, why don't women find someone who can make them eat well? Where are the people?"
"In my opinion, what these men want is resources, not equality for women. What they want is equality between the strong and the weak, and among them, women are also sacrificed. How can I feel about them? Does what you say make sense?"
As he spoke, the group of men had been driven away one by one. Yichen nodded heavily, "What the girl said is reasonable. It seems that these people deserve it."
"It's not that those who want to promote monogamy deserve it, it's just that the starting point of this group of men is for themselves, so it is unlikely to resonate with women."
With that said, Liu Shengsheng turned around and returned to the tavern as if nothing had happened, and said:
"As the prince said, they don't want to strengthen themselves, they just want to stop rich and powerful people from taking concubines and looking for maids, so that they can have some opportunities. But even if their girls work as maids, they can earn I’m getting a monthly salary, but what can I get from following those men who don’t even have enough to eat?”
"There's endless work, endless porridge to drink, endless anger to bear, and you have to help pass on the family line. The so-called passing on the family line is to keep having children until you have a son. Ha, any normal person knows how to choose, right? If so. It’s okay to be sincere, at least you can still get a sincere heart, but among thousands of men, how rare is the sincerity?”
Yichen lowered his head in embarrassment, as if that was indeed the case...
Liu Shengsheng's words really hit the nail on the head.
Liu Shengsheng sneered and said: "In the families of powerful people, if they can give birth to a son, they will have enough food and clothing for the rest of their lives, but among those ungrateful men, even if they give birth to a son, they still have to pay for their child." I work very hard to support a large family."
"Although what I say is somewhat realistic, the world is inherently dominated by the weak and the strong, and people are not satisfied. Just like the concubines in the rich and powerful families all want to be the rightful master, and those men from poor families, if they become prosperous one day, point out Maybe they will take more concubines than others."
Yichen nodded, "Everything the girl said is true."
After a pause, he continued: "The most serious preference for sons over daughters is in the mountains. The poorer the place, the more sons are valued. If those people didn't take women seriously, resulting in more men and fewer women, there would be There won’t be so many disadvantaged men who can’t find wives. After all, when their older generation abandons their baby girls, they should expect that their younger generations will be punished.”
"Pack up and continue on your way."
"yes."
"..."
It happened that the rain had also become a lot lighter. By the time Liu Shengsheng and Nan Muze got into the carriage, the rain in the sky had turned into drizzle.
Du Tingyun also sat in the carriage and followed the two of them. Behind them, there were tens of thousands of soldiers heading towards the other city gate in a mighty manner.
As the rain gradually stopped, the streets
People gradually appeared on the street.
Looking at the long queue on the street, the people on both sides of the street were talking non-stop.
"I heard that the person in the carriage is the real princess of our Li country, and it was the prince who went there personally to bring her back."
"I know this, but His Highness the Crown Prince stayed in Feng Qing Country for more than half a year before picking him up!"
"It's amazing, that real princess has a lot of background? Look, there are all soldiers from the Feng Qing Kingdom behind her."
"No, I heard that her name is Liu Shengsheng, she is Princess Cang of Feng Qing Kingdom!"
"Then the one sitting in the carriage with her is Prince Cang?"
"It must be, otherwise, how could they bring so many people into our city gate?"
"It seems that the two countries are really on good terms. They dare to let in so many soldiers and are not afraid of them messing around..."
"..."
"Have you heard? Our sixth princess also went to pick up the real princess..."
"I know about this, isn't it being spread in the streets and alleys in the past few months?"
"I heard that the Sixth Princess was kind enough to pick her up, but she locked her up and tortured her for several months."
"Really? It's so scary."
"Really, this true princess is very cruel and ruthless. Not only did the sixth princess suffer a lot, but the second prince also seemed to have suffered a lot." Kanshu La
"Talking nonsense, how can you know about royal affairs?"
"It's been said like this in the streets and alleys, it must be true."
"..."
"It's obvious that it's true. You see, they have brought so many soldiers from other countries in. It's obvious that they don't believe that we are leaving the country."
"That's right, with such great arrogance and having to ask our Crown Prince to pick him up for so long, he must have a very bad temper."
"..."
All kinds of discussions came from both sides of the street, and the people whispered to each other and pointed at the large group of people.
Although the voice was not very loud, there were many people speaking, and a lot of words still reached the ears of Liu Shengsheng and the others.
I saw Du Tingyun immediately driving the carriage to the side of Liu Shengsheng's carriage, and then said softly: "Shengsheng, don't listen to the nonsense of the common people. People like to make random speculations, and everything they say cannot be counted."
Liu Shengsheng narrowed her eyes and said nothing.
Du Tingyun added: "I will find a way to silence the people on the street..."
After saying that, he ordered his men to deal with the matter as soon as possible.
And as soon as his men were dispatched, the streets on both sides became much quieter.
But as a result, the uneasiness in the eyes of the people became even worse.
Liu Shengsheng leaned inside the carriage as if nothing had happened.
Nan Muze gently held her hand, "These rumors must be spread by intentional people."
"I know."
Liu Shengsheng smiled and said, "It seems that some people don't really want to invite me back to China."
No matter, it will be interesting later.
"..."
