Oh my god, can you play like this?
Chapter 248: Kyoto was in such chaos during that time
When the eldest lady heard Xiao Yan'er say that His Majesty went into the water to play with them, she was furious.
He looked around anxiously, then taught Xiao Yan'er with a serious face, "Yan'er, don't talk nonsense!
That is the Emperor of our Dongshun Kingdom. How could His Majesty disregard his status like you guys?"
Gu Lanzhi carried the little prince ashore and said with a smile, "Yan'er is right, the emperor played with us in the water for a long time the other day!
They are watching it too, if you don’t believe me, ask them!”
Gu Lanzhi glanced at Feng Ran and the other servants who were waiting on the shore.
The eldest lady looked at Gu Lanzhi in disbelief, and Gu Lanzhi nodded to her seriously, confirming her words.
The eldest lady looked at Yan'er who had already put on her shoes, and Yan'er nodded very seriously.
The eldest lady still couldn't believe it and looked at Feng Ran and the others again.
Feng Ran smiled and nodded to the eldest lady. The eldest lady finally believed it. She covered her mouth with a handkerchief in surprise and her eyes widened.
To her, this really seemed like a fantasy.
What kind of identity and status does the emperor have?
No matter what the eldest lady thought, she couldn't imagine that His Majesty could play in the water barefoot and with bare legs.
Gu Lanzhi handed the little prince to his two eunuchs, who then began to help the baby wipe his feet and legs and put on his shoes.
Feng Ran also brought a clean handkerchief and served Gu Lanzhi.
Gu Lanzhi looked at the two young eunuchs, who were only five or six years old when they were bought by their families and sent to the palace to serve as eunuchs.
Since becoming the queen, Gu Lanzhi has become accustomed to the eunuchs.
But he still felt a little uncomfortable when he saw that such a young child was already a eunuch.
It was because of seeing such a young child being sold that Gu Lanzhi felt even more that he should develop Dongshun Country well.
Moreover, Gu Lanzhi heard from Li Beichen that these two little eunuchs were specially selected by him for the baby.
That means there are more than just these two children who have become eunuchs at such a young age.
Gu Lanzhi didn't dare to say that he would help Li Beichen build Dongshun so that no one would sell their children for money. At least... at least there should be fewer such phenomena!
Maybe because he already has a child, Gu Lanzhi feels more distressed about the child, even if it is not his own child.
The eldest lady had digested the fact that His Majesty also played in the water barefoot. When she raised her eyes, she saw the pity in Gu Lanzhi's eyes.
Gu Lanzhi acts as he pleases, without any scruples, and is strong and overbearing, but the eldest lady also knows that Gu Lanzhi is kind.
Although Gu Lanzhi's kindness depends on the person.
Anyway, in the palace, the eldest lady had never seen anyone who would feel sorry for these young eunuchs.
But the eldest lady had no intention of stopping her preaching.
"Lanzhi, you are the queen, you really can't be so rude.
If this gets out, how will others view you if the Queen of Dongshun Kingdom is so unruly? "
Gu Lanzhi put on his shoes and stood up, smiling and holding the eldest lady's arm, "Auntie, you don't know me yet! Do I care about what others think of me?
If I cared so much about what others think, wouldn't Li Beichen have countless concubines already?
Is it possible that I would force those girls into hasty marriages?"
When this was mentioned, the eldest lady burst into laughter.
This happened three or four years ago. It was because those female relatives asked Gu Lanzhi to persuade His Majesty to open a harem that Gu Lanzhi became angry and issued this order.
Gu Lanzhi was also bad. Not only did he give orders, he also sent people to the homes of these girls every day to ask if they had any marriage partners and when they would get married.
If the girl doesn't get married, she might as well go to the border early to take care of the elderly, the weak, women and children.
During that period, the city of Kyoto was in turmoil, and the families who were forced into marriage complained bitterly.
But Gu Lanzhi doesn't care about that. If you offend me, you will have to pay the corresponding price.
I don't care whether you are willing or not, you have to follow my orders.
At first, the people in Kyoto didn't know what was going on, so the families whose daughters were to be married off fanned the flames, trying to use public opinion to force Gu Lanzhi to retract his decision.
But why would Gu Lanzhi care about them!
Later, Li Beichen gave Chen an order to spread the whole story.
Only then did the people slowly understand what was going on.
But after the people knew this, they split into two factions. One faction thought that there was nothing wrong with the queen doing this. You came to me and asked me to give your man someone else. If I don’t teach you a lesson, do you really think the queen is just a decoration?
There is another group of people who think that a queen should have the bearing of a queen, and that it is her job to establish a harem for His Majesty.
After Gu Lanzhi knew the people's reactions, he still ignored them.
But after a while, those who said that the Queen should open a harem for His Majesty shut up.
Because they found that those who instigated them to have such ideas disappeared without them noticing.
Needless to say, we can tell who ordered this to happen.
Gu Lanzhi may not care about other people's opinions, but Li Beichen still has to maintain the queen's dignity.
Anyway, no matter what people say, Gu Lanzhi has been sending people to various mansions to force marriages.
In the end, these people were really out of options, and probably felt that they couldn't delay any longer, otherwise all the men of marriageable age in Kyoto would have been taken away by others.
Then there was a huge incident of bride-kidnapping.
But this time, the people being robbed were not women, but unmarried men.
As a result, the doors of every family with unmarried men were trampled down by the families of these women.
Moreover, those young men with bad character have become popular. No one was willing to marry them before, but now, one by one they come to the door on their own initiative.
The ancients paid attention to the matching of family backgrounds, and it would not work if the conditions were not equal.
But if the conditions are equal, there are not many families in Kyoto City!
At this time, some people took advantage of the situation. Some married people thought about whether they could take this opportunity to take a concubine.
If you have a concubine who is the legitimate daughter of a big family, what an honor it would be!
Anyway, Kyoto was so chaotic during that time!
But because of this, no one dared to talk to Gu Lanzhi about opening a harem for His Majesty.
