Mind reading, the emperor saw my fist hard

Chapter 181 Close Relatives Are Not Allowed to Marry

Chen Shan's body trembled, and he looked at his daughter's belly in disbelief. Jiaojiao actually dared to get pregnant with a man before marriage.

He looked up again and exchanged a glance with Huo Renshan. They both nodded slightly and made a decision.

Chen Shan personally took the veil from the eldest daughter and covered the youngest daughter's head with it, then called out to the matchmaker: "Begin the wedding ceremony!"

Mrs. Huo didn't understand why her husband suddenly changed his mind, but the Huo family definitely didn't want a woman who had an unclear relationship with her brother-in-law.

"Husband! I don't agree!"

Huo Renshan pulled his wife over and sat her down in the hall. "You have to agree even if you don't agree. Hurry up and get married."

She had refused to agree just now, but now she agreed. Huo Ziyang and Chen Rujiao were still confused when they were getting married.

What happened made his father-in-law and father agree to their marriage?

And there is too much gloating in the eyes of the surrounding officials.

Shouldn't we bless him and Jiaojiao for finally getting married?

Before Huo Ziyang and Chen Rujiao could think more, they were already being forced by their respective fathers to get married.

“Bow to heaven and earth.”

"Bow to your parents twice."

"The couple bowed to each other."

The speed at which the matter developed was so fast that Xu Jinyu was overwhelmed.

[How come this is a wedding? ]

Everyone glanced at Xu Jinyu secretly. What if they didn't get married? Would they wait for her belly to grow bigger?

At that time, both the Huo family and the Chen family were embarrassed.

[But how can I tell them that the child is not Huo Ziyang's? Chen Rujiao came to make a scene just to marry Huo Ziyang and find a cheap father for the child in her belly.]

"Click!"

Huo Renshan was overwhelmed and finally fainted.

Chen Shan was not that strong either. He even staggered as he walked. He pulled his eldest daughter and staggered out of the Huo's house.

As for the youngest daughter, she has already been married and the matter is done. This youngest daughter will be a member of the Huo family from now on, and Chen Shan will not care about her anymore.

"Someone come! Someone come!"

"Look for a doctor! Look for a doctor!"

Xu Jinyu's second visit to a banquet once again ended in chaos.

However, Lord Huo's goal was achieved, and there was no problem with his daughter-in-law.

But his own son doesn't want that daughter-in-law who has no problems.

After leaving the Huo Mansion, Princess Wuyang remained silent all the way, looking like she was troubled.

After a long while, Princess Wuyang asked Xu Jinyu: "Tai'an, do you think all men are like this? They eat what's in the bowl and look at what's in the pot."

“This…” Xu Jinyu was speechless.

Isn't it nonsense to ask a man who has never been in a relationship questions?

As a college student who has read countless novels about domineering bosses, ancient Chinese novels, and pure romance novels, and who claims to have had countless men, how could I admit that I don't understand men?

Xu Jinyu is full of confidence.

[How should I put it? It means that no matter how far you go, you will always meet the person who is meant for you. ]

[Or is it that there is no man who does not cheat, especially in this polygamous system. ]

[But I can’t tell this to the little girl directly. What if a nice little girl gets hurt? ]

"Ahem... You are a princess. No matter what kind of man he is, at least he must be a man who loves you wholeheartedly in front of you."

"As long as he doesn't want to die, he has to pretend to be good."

Princess Wuyang rolled her eyes. Yes! How could she forget that she was a princess?

And there is also the powerful weapon Xu Jinyu.

"Tai'an, I'm going to choose a prince consort."

"What! How old are you and you're already choosing a prince consort?"

Princess Wuyang is only a little older than me, about fourteen or fifteen years old, so why does she have to choose a prince consort?

[At the age of fourteen or fifteen, you are still a minor. This ancient rule is troublesome. You have to wait until you are eighteen to get married! ]

Princess Wuyang blushed and said a little embarrassedly: "Daqian women are all engaged at this age, but they are engaged first and will get married after two or three years."

"My mother has already decided on five candidates. You have a good relationship with the inner guards, so please help me check the candidates for the prince consorts."

"No problem. With my relationship with the inner guards, I will definitely find a lot of candidates for the five consorts."

Xu Jinyu's chest was patting loudly.

"Who are they?"

Princess Wuyang looked resentful: "My mother didn't tell me, but I will go to her palace tonight to steal the list."

"How can this be considered stealing? At most, it's just a glance."

Wu Yang and Xu Jinyu looked at each other and separated with great satisfaction.

During the morning court session the next day, Princess Wuyang dropped the goods in her hands and came to the court room.

When he saw Xu Jinyu, he immediately waved mysteriously.

Emperor Xuan glanced at his daughter and Xu Jinyu and smiled slightly.

They were all girls, so they could all play together. Then they discussed state affairs with important officials of the court.

Xu Jinyu's eyes lit up. Wuyang looked like he had stolen... Pooh! He had gotten the list.

"Who are they?"

Princess Wuyang whispered in Xu Jinyu's ear: "The first candidate is my mother's cousin, Luo Wenshu."

[Well, this candidate is ruled out first. Close relatives cannot marry. If they do marry, it is easy to give birth to deformed children, such as four arms, three legs, or even hermaphrodites.]

[Even if the child is born successfully, the child is likely to be weak and die early, and will also inherit many messy recessive genetic diseases. Close relatives must not get married.]

[If the child is not in good health or has some kind of disease, it will be blamed on the woman, so this one passes!]

Xu Jinyu whispered, "This person is not a good candidate. Close relatives cannot get married."

Princess Wuyang opened her mouth wide, and after a long while she said with difficulty: "We are not close relatives, he is my uncle's child."

Xu Jinyu: "Third generations are considered close relatives. His grandfather is your grandfather, so this kind of relationship is close relatives. There are many disadvantages to close relatives marrying. The child may be deformed, have hidden genetic diseases, or be physically weak..."

Xu Jinyu tried hard to educate Princess Wuyang about the disadvantages of marrying close relatives.

Neither of them noticed that the sound in the room was getting smaller and smaller, and everyone pricked up their ears to listen to the movement here.

Emperor Xuan and the officials all looked grim.

Close relatives cannot marry!

Most of the officials present had cousins ​​in their families.

Especially the Minister of Personnel, Lu Cao, whose face turned extremely pale in an instant and he even took a few steps back. If the Minister of War next to him had not given him a hand, he would have fallen to the ground.

"So remember never to marry your cousin."

Princess Wuyang's face became paler and paler as Xu Jinyu continued to talk. Suddenly, Princess Wuyang grabbed Xu Jinyu's arm and said, "Then tell me, should the situation of being unable to conceive also be considered as a marriage between close relatives?"

"Correct!"

Xu Jinyu gave Princess Wuyang an affirmative answer.

"Inability to conceive is only the lightest consequence of consanguineous marriage. There are also those who get pregnant but cannot keep the pregnancy and have repeated miscarriages."

"Let me give you an example,"

[Let me see if there are any examples of inbreeding in Daqian.]

[It really happened. The shopkeepers of several shops on Zhuque Street gave birth to five children, four of whom were mentally retarded and only one was normal. Because of the four mentally retarded children, the shopkeepers were despised by all their relatives and friends, and the neighbors also said that their ancestors did not accumulate virtue.]

[The Minister of Personnel, Lu Cao, once married his cousin, but the cousin's ending was not good, and it was said that she died of hemorrhage.]

[In fact, she gave birth to a child with both male and female organs. The Lu family was so scared that they said that the cousin had done something evil, so they buried the two of them alive in a thin coffin.]

[At that time, Lu Cao was only a teenager and had no strength to resist. He was pinned to the ground and watched his cousin being buried alive.]

The Minister of Personnel, Lu Cao, was supported by someone. He closed his eyes and a line of tears fell from them.

The Minister of Revenue beside him patted Lu Cao on the shoulder and said, "Don't be sad, at least you know the reason."

Lu Cao opened his eyes again and looked at Xu Jinyu with a relieved smile.

The death of his cousin was a pain for him for half his life. He hated himself for being powerless at the time and hated his parents and relatives for being so cruel. That was his wife and his parents' niece.

I hate that misfit child even more.

But now it seems that everything is my own fault.

That child was the result of a close-kin marriage between himself and his cousin.
