I was hiding from gods and demons at the beginning, but it turned out that I was the boss

Qingtian issued a decree after the beginning of the year, granting illegitimate women the right to personal freedom and marriage.

This means that illegitimate children are no longer inferior slaves.

This measure was enforced by Medellin as early as last winter. Although its promotion to the whole country has caused dissatisfaction among some people, it can still be promoted.

Because of this, Qingtian received many anonymous letters from the real wives.

Most of them complained that the new policy was unfair to legitimate children.

The powerful people in Lanze live a decadent life. Although the great nobles seem to have only one wife, many of them actually have private mistresses, and some even have public lovers outside.

Naturally, there are many illegitimate children like this, and there are many family disputes caused by this.

In the past, illegitimate children had a low status, but now that they have become commoners, it is difficult for their families to restrain and control them. Such regulations naturally caused dissatisfaction among many powerful people.

then what should we do?

Sunny day only issued the decree again:

Illegitimate children do not have the right to inherit titles and property.

From this year on, all newborn babies will be registered and anyone who gives birth to an illegitimate child will have to pay a fine.

The high fine of fifty gold coins made everyone gasp, as not everyone was a noble.

If you can't come up with the money or refuse to pay, your assets will be confiscated. In short, I advise you not to secretly have illegitimate children starting this year.

Now the ladies are satisfied.

Letters of praise came one after another...

But Lanze is seriously short of labor right now. Wouldn’t it be bad not to have children?

Therefore, Qingtian strongly encourages civilians to marry and have children, and provides subsidies for marriage and childbirth.

In addition, in order to address the problem of nobles having too many private favorites, Qingtian required these people to pay a head tax.

You rely on your power to have so many favorites, don't give them freedom, don't allow them to get married, and don't let them contribute to Lanze. That is definitely not conducive to Lanze's development.

So if you want to keep people, you have to pay the head tax.

If you keep one, you have to pay 100 gold coins. If you don't pay, you can make up for it with your property.

In addition, since you love so deeply, you should ensure the life safety of your pet.

If the other party dies accidentally due to unnatural injuries, the head of the family will be investigated and all punishments will be based on laws and regulations. It is no longer like in the past when the life and death of a private pet was left to the master's control.

If the master of the house does not want to keep the person, the private favorite who is not a slave born in the house shall not be allowed to continue to stay in the family, and will return to being a commoner after the contract of sale is abolished.

As soon as this policy was introduced, it caused dissatisfaction among many powerful people.

But today Sunny Day has established its prestige and has enough supporters.

Eventually the policy was implemented.

So starting from February, many families released a large number of people, most of whom were young men and women with outstanding looks.

Qingtian was afraid that they would not be able to adapt to the cruel life outside after being used to being canaries, so he set up a psychological counseling department and a re-employment department.

There is a huge shortage of staff in newly opened public canteens, hospitals and transportation stations, and these young people with good looks and good figures can be quickly trained and put on the job.

By May, this group of people had gradually adapted to their new life.

They have jobs, can have love and marriage, and are no longer kept as playthings.

Although some new regulations still have loopholes and unfairness, we must move forward step by step.

Many things Sunny Day did were to abolish slavery at some point in the future and make Lanze a fair and free country.

It will be a long process, but she looks forward to the day when it happens.

……

In late March, spring flowers are in full bloom.

After lunch, on a sunny day, I lay in the palace garden and basked in the sun.

Inside the palace, Jenny and Helen were helping her pack her luggage.

The day after tomorrow is Karin's wedding. Ina, who had woken up, returned to Medes a month ago.

It’s a pity that although Ina recovered, her soul was damaged, causing her memory to be incoherent and she forgot a lot of things.

After more than a month of recuperation in the imperial capital, Qingtian sent her back to the lord's mansion in Meijing for recuperation.

Seeing that her daughter had basically recovered, Karin decided to hold the wedding with the Walmart manager in the Medes Business Department.

The two of them had already received their marriage certificate and all that was left was the wedding.

Since Qingtian is too busy, Ina has to help Karin prepare for the wedding.

The sound of Meili's footsteps could be heard in the garden. She came to the rattan swing on a sunny day in a light blue dress.

The swing was made by Lorenzo specifically for Qingtian two months ago.

It is woven with rattan. When the sun is shining, you can put a mat inside to rest and cool off, or play and relax.

The inspiration naturally comes from the Sadara Hunting Festival.

Although Meili, who has been completely turned into a puppet, has her own memories and normal ability to live and behave, her thoughts and emotions are similar to those of the controller.

She was like a doppelganger of Tasriel.

"Why are you lying here alone? Be careful not to catch a cold."

Hearing this, Qingtian lazily opened his eyes and replied, "Take advantage of the time at noon to take a break. Is your luggage ready?"

Meili sat on a stone chair not far from the swing, took an orange from the stone table and helped Qingtian peel the flesh, "Well, I've been waiting for you, a busy man."

Qingtian took the orange and ate it slowly, with a dull look on his face.

Meili looked at her and smiled: "Why, are you missing Lorenzo?"

"Who misses him!" Qingtian replied irritably and continued eating oranges.

Lorenzo is now mainly responsible for matters related to the demons, and since his roots are in the south, he cannot stay in the imperial capital all the time.

Qingtian himself traveled back and forth between different areas of the empire for various reasons.

It is difficult for two people to meet when they are busy, but in order to be together, Lorenzo will try his best to meet Qingtian in the evening no matter how far he goes, and he feels good even if they can only spend a few hours together.

But this time Lorenzo was away for two weeks, and the occasional contact was limited to official business.

Qingtian contacted him on his own initiative, but he ended the call with a few words.

Because of this, Qingtian has been feeling a little depressed.

Meili looked at her angry face and found it a little funny. "You told me before that you didn't like being together, but now you can't live without her."
