You can't wait for long with sex, not to mention that most of the early life secretaries can't even talk about "sex". Lewen Novel Network, with the continuous development and expansion of the Senate, the maid resources are becoming increasingly abundant and the quality has been greatly improved. Outside, there are female students from Fangcaodi and young ladies from wealthy families all over East Asia competing. In the early days, the status of secretaries in the family was It became precarious.
Although the senators had a "long-lasting love" for their first maid, most of them had a deep emotional foundation. But this does not prevent them from despising the first generation of life secretaries for being "unattractive", "low-born" and "uneducated" - Du Wen once proposed that the elders and the first life secretary should be regarded as a "de facto marriage" ", but was rejected by a large number of votes in the vote - planning to choose one of the female students from Fangcaodi who have received a full set of new education or the rich young lady from the mainland to be the official wife. There are only a few elders such as Wu Nanhai and Wu De who actually married the life secretary as their legal wife.
Most life secretaries also have this awareness, knowing that they cannot enjoy the status of "concubine", and children have become the only guarantee for their status and future prospects. For the latecomers among life secretaries, they no longer have the advantage of being an "original wife" and they have to rely on their own children if they want to improve their family status. Therefore, life secretaries all regard their children as "talismans" and pampering and pampering are the most important things. Very common phenomenon. It is natural for a life secretary who has given birth to a boy to take advantage of the "first mover advantage" of her child and try to win the "senior seat".
Ji Xin knew that there were still very few heirs of the elders, most of them only had one or two children. There are not many life secretaries either. After the mainland strategy is launched, both wife and children will have a good harvest. Don’t set the rules now. At that time, housework may lead to bloodshed.
In the "Law on Marriage and Succession of Elders", spouses of elders have two types of relationships: "legal marriage" and "de facto cohabitation". The legal status of the two is different. The conclusion or divorce of the former requires formal procedures. It is recognized and issued by the Honorable Court of the Senate; the latter does not need to complete legal procedures and can be recorded in the General Office.
If the spouse of a senator is another senator, it will be a "legal marriage" regardless of whether it is before or after.
There is no gender restriction on the spouse of a senator. As long as a female senator is willing, she can also have multiple male "life secretaries". If someone is gay, the Senate also recognizes the legal status of their spouse.
Spouses under a legal marriage are husband and wife recognized by the law of the Senate, enjoy all the names and powers of a formal spouse, and have priority in inheritance after the death of the senator; de facto cohabitants do not enjoy this, and whether they can inherit the inheritance. The amount of inheritance is determined by the senator's will or executor.
This is actually a disguised form of "division between concubine and concubine", which is equivalent to legal recognition of the unequal relationship between the "major wife" and the "concubine". Therefore, during the draft stage, it was firmly opposed by a small group of elders headed by Du Wen, who believed that this was a serious "reactionary". But the Law Society, which drafted the bill, reminds everyone that, at least in a legal sense, elders do not have "concubines."
"Whether it is a big step or a small step, it is a step we have taken in the history of human civilization." Ji Xin earnestly persuaded the opponents at the meeting, although proportionally, there were very few opponents. However, Ji Xin gave a full explanation with the attitude of "My heart can illuminate the sun and the moon." "Comrade Du Wen, I understand how you feel, and I agree with your ideals, but our current situation makes it impossible to fully realize your ideas. Instead of insisting on your ideas and getting nothing, it is better to lower your attitude and be more Easily achieve goals gradually..."
The legal status of spouses is different, but the status of children is equal. The Marriage and Inheritance Law stipulates that only the children of elders who have been registered with the Heraldry Institute of the General Office. Children born in wedlock, out of wedlock or adopted have the same legal status. There are no restrictions on the adoption of children by elders. Adopted children can also be designated to inherit the elder seat - only if there are no biological children or biological children are incapable of inheriting.
But how does one inherit the seat of a senator? Whether to "establish a worthy person", "establish an elder" or other inheritance method is decided by the elder personally. Legally, all legal children of elders are eligible to inherit, regardless of gender or mother's origin. However, children whose mothers are female senators have priority in inheritance.
During the lifetime of the senator, the method of selecting heirs or the list of heirs must be sealed and handed over to the Heraldry Institute of the General Office for secret storage if certified by a third party. Together with the will, it is opened and read after death under the supervision of the Senate's funeral committee. Once it is read out, it is established and no one can have any objection.
For senators who have not made any succession arrangements, the Senate will arrange to appoint a successor after their death. The principle is "establish direct descendants and establish long-term leaders". If there are no children or the physical condition of the children is obviously unable to inherit the senatorial seat, the Senate will arrange for the adopted children of other senators to inherit the seat.
The property of a senator, except for the shares that will be returned to the state after his death as stipulated in the Common Program, the houses, vehicles, high-end furniture and other properties owned by the senator will be recovered by the general office. The remaining personal portion will be distributed according to the will of the senator. If there is no will, Distribution is presided over by the Senate. In principle, the person who inherits the senator's seat is the main heir.
This system of marriage and inheritance generally takes into account the opinions of various elders, so there is less controversy. However, some people have proposed that the "primogeniture system of inheritance" should be adopted across the board to facilitate the stability of the elder family.
"...The so-called establishment of virtuous people is tantamount to raising gu. It's okay to have few children. If a senator has more than five or six children - I think this is very possible - there will definitely be a palace fight for the throne. 'Drama. How to show your own 'virtue'? The children of the elders will definitely show off their talents to show it off, and there will probably be no shortage of all kinds of frame-up and frame-up tricks. Maybe there will be no shortage of poisons and drugs...
"Whether one is a senator or not, this distinction is really a matter of difference! Under our system, the Senate is the emperor, and the senator is also an emperor. Since ancient times, there have been many examples of fathers and sons fighting each other because of the fight for the throne. We should learn from the European practice and make it clear that the eldest son takes all the seats. This can prevent other children from competing for the throne and allow them to turn their attention to the outside world as soon as possible instead of focusing on their own seats, which will help reduce internal friction."
"Is it useful to take all the eldest sons?" Wu Nanhai is a staunch supporter of the "Li Xian Sect". "It's not uncommon for everyone to work together to frame the prince, get the prince down and then tear each other apart. Or just murder the second son. Boss, the bastard murders the eldest son... We Chinese people don't have aristocratic complex. It is said that princes and generals have a certain relationship with each other. The eldest son system does not have such a magical effect. If you ask me, if you raise the gu, you will raise the gu. Anyway, the one who wins in the end is definitely not A weak person is much better than a useless eldest son. Besides, what we are implementing now is a secret reserve system, which can curb the infighting among the children of elders."
"I think we should provide enough protection for the children of elders to reduce conflicts," someone suggested. "What should the children of elders do if they cannot receive inheritance or only receive a small amount? They will have a strong sense of loss, and maybe they will Become a factor of instability. The Senate Foundation should make special arrangements for these children of senators and allocate special funds to provide housing and subsidies to ensure that they can all live a prosperous life..."
"These are no longer the children of the Eight Banners!" Wu Nanhai expressed strong objection, "This is harming them! Besides, you have to provide guarantees of a prosperous life for the children of the elders. Do you want to provide guarantees for the grandchildren of the elders? This population will increase exponentially. ! That’s why you can’t lose your tail!”
The vest coughed: "I also feel that we cannot artificially create a 'senator clan' - the consequences will be disastrous. Our Senate treats the children of senators equally and provides them with the best education, and they can also inherit some property themselves - ―If he is still a bastard, then there is no need for the Senate to pay more attention to him."
In the end, the system of eldest son inheritance did not receive more response, and the original terms were still "determined by the elders themselves."
In order to further reduce the possibility of "palace fighting" among the children of elders, curb the involvement of the children's mothers, and reduce the interference of ideas from this time and space. The "Marriage and Inheritance Law" stipulates that all children of elders must be sent to the kindergarten affiliated to Gakushuin after they are three years old. After they are six years old, they will be promoted to Gakushuin Elementary School. They all adopt the boarding system. Except for going home on rest days and holidays, they will all live in the school together.
At the final stage of the deliberations, the question of succession to the seats of elderly senators was raised. Since adopted children can also inherit the senatorial seat, even elderly senators who are no longer physically capable of having children can use this provision to inherit the senatorial seat by adopting children. For example, they can pass on their seats by adopting grandchildren without “taking advantage of outsiders.”
If we say that the seats of elderly senators alone cannot be inherited, this would go against the more egalitarian spirit of the elders. After a heated discussion, the final decision was to recognize that elderly senators have the right to adopt children and pass on their seats, but cross-generational adoptions are not allowed. That is to say, either adopt the children of other senators or adopt naturalized people. In addition, it is also stipulated that the surname of adopted children can only follow the surname of the elder, not the husband's surname. The adopted child cannot be older than three years old.
"For an aunt in her early sixties to adopt a child under the age of three, this is going to kill her..." someone couldn't help complaining.
"Sixty-year-olds have a lot of children to take care of. Besides, the elders can use wet nurses or nannies. It doesn't matter." Ma Jia said leisurely, "The purpose of limiting the age of children is to reduce the affection between adopted children and biological parents. To the minimum." At the same time, in order to prevent some elders from considering "sending children for adoption" as a way to expand the family's power, it is clearly stated that a elder can only send one child for adoption.
