"how?"
In the carriage, the First Emperor and Li Si seemed to be discussing something, but when Zhao Si climbed into the carriage, they both stopped the conversation tacitly and turned the focus of the conversation to Zhao Si.
"What?" Zhao Si smiled sarcastically.
He didn't expect that Li Si was here, and looking at the situation, it looked more like Li Si came here specially to wait for a meal.
The same is true for the First Emperor...
Is it really that boring?
"How's the poppy?" Li Si touched his goatee and asked with a smile.
The First Emperor also looked at Zhao Si with interest.
Zhao Si's face tightened for a rare moment. This kind of thing was extremely embarrassing, but fortunately Zhao Si was thick-skinned enough and no longer made any detours. He just raised his head and saluted the First Emperor like pushing gold and jade: "Your Majesty..."
The First Emperor smiled and waved his hands together: "That's right, that's right!"
Of course, what is accurate is not marriage, but concubinage.
After Zhao Si returned to Qin, he had no relatives. After getting along with him for a long time, the First Emperor also regarded Zhao Si as half a descendant.
To be honest, it is not an exaggeration to say that Zhao Si grew up from Xiaobai who had just returned from the sea to the present day, and it was cultivated by the First Emperor himself. This is truly a minister who the First Emperor personally watched grow up and put into cultivation. The only one in the room.
When it came to getting married, to be honest, the First Emperor really felt like a parent.
For a minister like Zhao Si, the position of the principal wife was no longer under his control, but had to be inspected and reviewed by the First Emperor.
But this does not mean that the First Emperor would interfere in Zhao Si's private life because of this.
The Yu family is in a state of turmoil now. A prominent family in Wuzhong says that their family fortune is huge, but they cannot escape the one-third of an acre of land that is limited to Kuaiji.
Under such circumstances, it cannot be said how humiliating it was for the daughter of the Yu family to devote herself to serving Zhao Si as a concubine.
In fact, concubines in this era were quite valuable, at least unlike the Song Dynasty where concubines could be given away at will.
Wives and concubines were both protected by the laws and etiquette of the Qin Dynasty.
In this era, concubines were not so casual. There were one concubine for a scholar, two concubines for ministers and officials, and nine concubines for princes.
That is, the lowest nobles, the scholar class, could have one wife and one concubine.
Doctor Qing has one wife and two concubines.
The princes had one wife and eight concubines.
In terms of etiquette and law, only the wife is on an equal footing with the husband, while the concubine's status is slightly lower than that of the wife, but she is also protected by etiquette and law, and her status is unusual and comparable to that of a concubine. Moreover, the concubine's marriage is also recorded in the official record and is subject to legal regulations. strict protection of the law.
Zhao Si was not granted a title of marquis, so he naturally had one wife and two concubines.
There is definitely no need to think about the wife's position. The Yu family can't reach her. Even if the Yu family can reach her, it will be in vain even if the First Emperor disagrees.
But I’m not that particular about concubines.
Wife and husband are equals, while concubines and husband are the masters of power.
Taking concubines does not affect anything. Zhao Si is not married yet, but although there are not many people who take concubines before they are married, it is not very rare.
The First Emperor happily finalized the matter of Zhao Si's concubinage.
The poppy was quite famous in Wuzhong, but she was not the official wife. Generally speaking, the First Emperor was quite satisfied. Generally speaking, the status of a concubine was not comparable to that of a maid. There were many maids in Zhao Si's family, and they were indeed needed. Someone came to help Zhao Si control it.
And from another perspective, the First Emperor would always feel that Zhao Si's heart was floating in the sky, like a wooden kite wandering in the sky without a rope, which would always give the First Emperor the illusion that this kid did not belong here.
If Zhao Si likes it, then that's for sure. The First Emperor's original intention was to give Zhao Si a more sense of belonging.
So Zhao Si's life events (false) were happily settled between the First Emperor and Li Si's teasing.
It seems that Zhao Si chose it himself, but in fact Zhao Si really doesn't have much say.
Zhao Si couldn't even say a word about the etiquette and the arrangement of betrothal gifts.
Zhang Cang simply had nothing to do, Zhao Si had no elders, and Zhao Si himself didn't understand the rules, so Zhang Cang took care of everything.
Li Si, the dignified Left Chancellor of the Qin Dynasty and the second-in-command of the Qin Empire, would take the time to personally buy relevant gifts for Zhao Si.
Even the First Emperor personally gave Zhao Si nine black horses with clear water and shiny oil as betrothal gifts.
"It feels weird..." Zhao Si sat on the frame, but he, the protagonist, seemed to be an outsider.
This feeling was very strange, a feeling he had never had before. After all, when he came to this world, he had no relatives or elders.
What drove him to return to Qin at all costs, apart from the adventure factor in his bones, the bigger factor was that he didn't want to die on a foreign island like that.
Even if he dies, he must die on the way home.
Fallen leaves always return to their roots...
Back in Da Qin, he was still alone. No matter what he did, Zhao Si felt a sense of detachment in his heart. Most of his emotions came from his moral quality and decades of education in his previous life, rather than actual reality. of empathy.
Now, the kite floating in the sky seemed to be tied with a long and thin string and was still floating in the sky, but Zhao Si knew clearly that the kite would always return to the ground.
Zhao Si made a choice...
But Yu Ji and Yu Miao Ge had no choice.
She really had no choice.
When he saw his father standing in front of him with a sad face and hesitated to speak several times, the smart Yu Miaoge already understood everything.
"Father, Zhao Zhonglang is tall and tall, has a dignified appearance, treats others, is easy-going but not arrogant. Moreover, he is still young and already in a high position. He is also a close minister of the emperor and has won the trust and closeness of His Majesty..." Yu Miaoge's face With a slight smile.
Zhao Si's skin is indeed very good-looking, both in terms of body proportions and appearance, not to mention the blessing of a halo of raw jade.
The hormonal aura exuded by Zhao Si's strong body and handsome appearance, coupled with the blessing of the aura of raw jade, are often fatal to young girls like Yu Miaoge.
Yu Miaoge is very smart. He understands his origin, and he also understands that he does not have much choice when it comes to marriage.
In this case, it is not a bad thing to choose someone who seems to be able to make him fall in love. Although the progress is a little fast, he does not want to embarrass his father or even the entire Yu family because of the girl's reserve.
"Hey..." Yu Feng let out a long sigh.
"I just want to make it difficult for you to be a concubine..."
After all, a concubine is inferior to a wife.
But the situation was not up to anyone, and Yu Feng had no room to refuse.
Not to mention that the Yu family's buttocks are not clean now, even if the Yu family's buttocks are clean and Yu Miaoge can commit himself to Zhao Si as his concubine, a large number of people in the Yu family will still support it.
Who is Zhao Si?
He is famous all over Jiangdong for his ability to lift two tripods!
I brought back three kinds of immortal food to protect all living beings!
Now he is still a close minister of the First Emperor, only one step away from being a minister, and his future is bright and far-reaching.
Yu Feng's sigh was the sigh of a father. In the final analysis, this marriage was between Zhao Si and the Yu family. Objectively speaking, the Yu family did not suffer any loss but took advantage.
"I heard that Mr. Zhao is not married yet..." Yu Miaoge shook his head with a slight smile on his face.
"Besides, my daughter is willing." Yu Miaoge said softly.
In addition to being a little hasty, Zhao Si indeed fully complies with Yu Miaoge's standards and aesthetics for choosing a spouse.
After all, the Yu family was not at a disadvantage because of the concubine. In this case, Yu Ji really had no dissatisfaction. On the contrary, she was a little bit happy in her heart.
The boring life seemed to be opening a new chapter. After taking away her father Yu Feng, Yu Ji sat in front of the bronze mirror and looked at it again and again.
"Mao, am I beautiful?" Yu Miaoge looked back at his lady.
"My master is extremely beautiful." The lady bowed and spoke.
Hearing the flattering words countless times rarely made Yu Miaoge feel excited like before.
She has lived in Wuzhong since she was a child and is an extremely standard Jiangdong woman.
Her singing voice is admirable, her appearance is admirable, and her dancing is amazing, so I don’t know when she started to be called a poppy.
And gradually became famous in Wuzhong...
The clever Yu Miaoge has grown up to the limit of Jiangdong women's standards.
The women in Jiangdong are as numerous as water, and this is exactly the case.
But the slowly flowing clear water is not calm...
The reputation of the poppy made the entire Yu family regard her as a treasure, but in fact she was just being sold at a price.
Yu Miaoge knew this. She was very smart. There were some things she just didn't want to think about, not that she couldn't understand them.
She has grown up in the warm and sleepy Jiangdong for more than ten years, but she also longs for the outside world.
Now, everything comes very suddenly, but it is by no means unacceptable.
On the contrary, it gave her a feeling of breaking free.
"I'm going to Xianyang!" Yu Miaoge blinked.
"I heard that there are many tigers and wolves in Qin..."
I don’t know if Zhao Si is just pretending.
That’s not right. Is Zhao Si from Qin? He seemed to be a boy who had returned from overseas.
In short, the girl frankly accepted her fate with uncertainty and uncertainty.
After several days of hurried preparation, the auspicious time has arrived.
There was no way, the Emperor's drive could not stay in Kuaiji for too long.
Therefore, even if there is no auspicious time in the next month, the disciples of the Yin Yang family will try their best to make up an auspicious time.
Being able to wait a few days for a good time is enough to give Zhao Si face.
Besides, this is concubinage, not marriage.
Objectively speaking, there is no wedding for concubines.
"Spring and Autumn" says: "Concubine is not hired."
Not only is there no wedding, but a bride price is not required.
Of course, this only happens between extremely high-ranking people and extremely low-ranking people.
For example, if Zhao Si wanted to waste a concubine quota on his maid, the status gap would be huge...
In short, you have been given a status, so what else do you need a bicycle?
There is a difference in identity between the Yu family and Zhao Si, but it is not that big.
Therefore, the betrothal gift and dowry standards are actually quite high, and the etiquette is also handled in a decent manner.
Zhao Si set off, taking the betrothal gift personally prepared by the First Emperor for himself, and leading a black horse on the road to the Yu family.
(Note: This is an extremely simplified version of the wedding, with concubines, everything is simple. The wedding of a wife is very troublesome, and if you start it from scratch, it will take a year. In addition, there are.)
