"Rong Li, how can you bear to do this?"
Sun Lan looked at his good friend pitifully. They said that they would be together forever. Why did he kick him out of the car halfway?
Feng Yi said, "I really can't help you with this. Let me give you a suggestion. Write a letter to Old Man Sun or Military Counselor Qiguan."
Seeing that his good friend wanted to smooth things over, Sun Lan had to show his trump card. He turned around and prepared to find Jinghui.
Feng Yi raised his eyebrows. He subconsciously felt that Sun Lan was not that easy to deal with.
He asked, "Lan, where are you going?"
"Find Jinghui. Let Jinghui talk to Changsheng."
If Changsheng was also "provoked" into rebellion and asked the same question to Feng Yi, wouldn't Feng Yi become his brother in trouble?
By then, he would like to see how Feng Yi would be able to stay out of trouble.
Seeing that he was about to leave, Feng Yi hurriedly reached out and grabbed Sun Lan's hand. He said gloomily, "Are you trying to die with me?"
Sun Lan stopped and smiled. "Isn't a good brother supposed to share blessings and misfortunes together?"
It did not make sense for Sun Lan to be so worried about this matter, but Feng Yi was enjoying it. It was too unfair.
Feng Yi was speechless.
To hell with "share blessings and misfortunes together". He did not expect Sun Lan, this thick-browed and big-eyed fellow, to have such a sinister intention.
"Rong Li, are you going to help me or not?" Sun Lan stared at him with his bright and harmless eyes. Feng Yi scolded him in his heart. Sun Lan was different from Old Man Sun. He was good at pretending to be weak. He was sure that Feng Yi could not do anything to him.
"I really owe you."
Feng Yi sighed. After all, they were classmates and friends for many years. It was not his style to stand by and do nothing.
As the saying goes, one would rather tear down ten temples than ruin a marriage. Sun Lan had been thinking about Qiguan's eldest wife for many years. He could not let him be a single dog forever.
Sun Lan smiled. "Rong Li is indeed righteous."
If not for his upbringing, Feng Yi really wanted to roll his eyes to express his inner feelings.
What was "righteousness"?
If it was not for Sun Lan, this shameless fellow, threatening him with both carrot and stick, he would not have gotten on this boat.
"Rong Li, tell me your idea."
Feng Yi was the most outstanding youth of this generation, and Sun Lan had high hopes for him. He would definitely have a way.
"Method? He had to write a letter to his lord to find out what she was thinking. Otherwise, if we act on our own, your grandfather and my father won't be able to handle the consequences. " Feng Yi said, "Although Jinghui only wants to retain her position as the head of the household and not be confined to the inner courtyard in the future, it seems to be a simple request with no problems, but it involves many things that we can't touch. We can't solve it."
Sun Lan was speechless.
He did not expect that the solution Feng Yi mentioned was to look for the elders. Previously, it was his grandfather. Now, it was his lord.
After all, he was the grandson that Old Man Sun had cultivated for many years. Sun Lan also had a sense for politics, but not as keen as Fengyi.
"Testing the Lord's intentions?" Sun Lan said, "If my lord intends to promote female households in the long run and support women, having two heads of household in a family might be the root of the problem. However, the implementation of two household heads would also involve issues such as taxation and population inspection. Only by solving the problem at the root could everything be achieved. If my lord is willing, our questions will definitely receive a response. On the other hand, if my lord doesn't make a statement, it means that there will be other changes to the female households. It could be further improvements, or it could be a temporary solution? "
Feng Yi nodded and said, "We still need my lord to make a statement on this matter so that we can think of a solution. Otherwise, it will be a waste of effort."
If the Lord didn't have this intention, it would be useless even if the two of them were to be passionate.
Sun Lan asked uncertainly, "Rong Li, what do you think … are the chances of this happening?"
Feng Yi covered her face with her fan, revealing only her eyes, which were brimming with a meaningful smile.
"Our lord is a woman after all. If she doesn't change the world's view of heirs, when she has children in the future, it will be a man's family line. Doesn't that mean that her ten years of conquest will be a wedding dress for the young master's father? " Feng Yi saw through everything. Sun Lan was stunned. For the first time, he realized that his good friend was Feng Zhen's biological son. "People live for money, fame, status, or power. At the end of the day, it's still for themselves. Why do people care so much about the family line? Of course, it's not just so that there will be descendants to worship after death. Only the dead know what the world after death is like. The living don't know. Another important reason is to pass on the torch. "
The fruits of a lifetime of hard work would naturally be passed on to her own children.
There were also differences between close and distant children, like the palm and the back of the hand.
If the world thought that male heirs would continue the family line of the man, then everything the lord had in the future would be passed on to the male heirs. In the eyes of the world, wouldn't it be a wedding dress for someone else? Even if the children were her own, she still wouldn't feel good about it.
Sun Lan said, "My lord is not such a fool. How could her thinking be so narrow-minded?"
Feng Yi sighed and said, "Why are you scolding yourself?"
Sun Lan choked and suddenly thought of something. Her face turned green.
Feng Yi said, "This is not the thinking of a fool. It's just the thinking of an ordinary person. It's not narrow-minded. If you only have one daughter in the future, and she is destined to marry into someone else's household, then what you have worked so hard for half your life will be taken by your son-in-law through your daughter. Will you feel good? On the other hand, if your daughter is independent and continues the family line, you will feel better after a hundred years. "
Everyone liked to take advantage of others and not be taken advantage of.
However, how could the concept of inheritance that had lasted for thousands of years be reversed so easily?
Sun Lan said, "So … the possibility of my lord agreeing is very high?"
Feng Yi smiled and said, "We will know the result only after we find out."
His analysis was probably feasible for ordinary people, but it was not quite right for Jiang Pengji.
Even if the result was the same, the analysis process was very different.
Because Sun Lan had spoken too confidently, he was a little flustered. He did not dare to look at Jing Hui for fear that she would be disappointed in him.
Little did he know —
His reaction was within her expectations.
Because of their father's generation, Changsheng and Jing Hui were considered bosom buddies. They were very close.
It did not take long for her to hear about Jing Hui making things difficult for Sun Lan.
She said, "I think this matter is not easy to handle. You are deliberately making things difficult for him."
As a student trained by the powerful teachers of the Golden Scale Academy, Jing Hui and Changsheng's innate genes were powerful. Naturally, she would not be bad.
She was also clear about the obstacles that would be encountered in implementing a family with two households.
"Of course I know it's not easy, but it's also good to let him know that it's not so easy to marry me. The daughter of the Qiguan family is not an ordinary woman in the inner house. If he dares to marry me, he should be mentally prepared. Otherwise, we will quarrel over this in the future. It's better to make it clear from the beginning. "
Changsheng chewed on the peanut cake and her eyes could not help but turn.
In the distance, Feng Yi was together with Sun Lan, thinking about how to write a memorial to Jiang Pengji. He suddenly shivered.
He had an ominous feeling.
