Physician of the Song Dynasty: Zhang Kai and Li Qingzhao have a private life-long contract

There were constant disputes in the DPRK, but Fan Zheng and Li Qingzhao thanked guests behind closed doors and enjoyed their world sweetly. They talked about poetry during the day and played the harp and harp at night. It was a perfect match.

However, according to custom, newlyweds have three days to return home.

On the third day of their wedding, Fan Zheng prepared gifts early and returned to Li's house with Li Qingzhao in a carriage.

"My uncle is back!"

Following the concierge's announcement, the entire Li Mansion immediately became a sensation, and Li Kefei and his wife hurriedly came out.

"This is the latest mirror developed by medical engineers. I hope my mother-in-law will accept it!"

When Fan Zheng directed his men to move a brand new glass mirror out of the carriage and looked at the clear face inside, Wang couldn't put it down.

I wonder which woman in the world can resist such a clear mirror? This is simply the ultimate temptation.

"My son-in-law has met my father-in-law!" Fan Zheng said with a solemn salute to Li Kefei. This was his first visit to the house after his wedding, so the courtesy must not be missed.

Li Kefei, on the other hand, looked at Fan Zheng with admiration. His daughter's wedding had received congratulations from the three prime ministers of the dynasty, blessings from the Song and Liao Dynasties, and officials personally attended the wedding. This was a supreme honor.

Not to mention that Fan Zheng recited the wedding vows in front of the officials and all the guests at the wedding to give his daughter the greatest protection. How could he not satisfy his father?

"A good son-in-law doesn't need to be polite!" Li Kefei said happily.

"This is my brother-in-law Fan Zheng. He is indeed a talented person!" Suddenly, a well-looking middle-aged man looked at Fan Zheng with a spring breeze.

"Brother-in-law?"

Fan Zheng raised his brows and looked at the middle-aged man in surprise. This man was similar in age to Li Kefei, but far different in age from him. How could he still be a brother-in-law?

Li Kefei suddenly said: "Come on, let me introduce you to my father. This is Mr. Cai Jingcai, Qingzhao's cousin-in-law. Mr. Cai has just returned to the court, and the good son-in-law should not have met him yet."

"Cai Jing! The leader of the Six Thieves of the Northern Song Dynasty! The famous traitor turned out to be Li Qingzhao's cousin-in-law."

Fan Zheng's face suddenly froze and he looked in front of him in disbelief.

Cai Jing smiled heartily and said: "Cai just returned to the court and was unable to see Master Fan's wedding. It is really a pity. Until Master Fan and his cousin came back today, they came here to see Master Fan!"

Fan Zheng said politely: "Master Cai, you are so polite. It is a good story in the court that the two brothers of the Cai family are officials in the same court. Fan has also heard of his name for a long time."

"Where! Where? The Fan family has two methods of transformation, and the eternal harmony of the brother-in-law and cousin is a legend. Cai is far away in other places, and he admires it endlessly.

Cai Jing was worthy of being a famous traitor in later generations. He was well-spoken and funny, and soon the Li family was full of laughter.

Fan Zheng had a strange expression on his face. Fan Zheng had met Cai Bian, Cai Jing's younger brother, at the Ministry of Rites, but he had never thought that Cai Jing, who was famous in history books, was related to Li Qingzhao.

wrong!

The relatives of the Li family were not only Cai Jing, a treacherous official, but the famous treacherous minister Qin Hui in later generations was also a relative of the Li family. Cai Jing was Li Qingzhao's cousin-in-law, and Qin Hui was Li Qingzhao's cousin-in-law.

"The Li family has poked holes in the traitor's nest." Fan Zheng couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Facing Cai Jing's fiery enthusiasm, Fan Zheng was polite on the surface, but in fact he was wary on the inside.

Cai Jing was the backbone of the new party and the leader of the six thieves in later generations. How could he come to see his irrelevant cousin-in-law without any trouble?

Sure enough, after the pleasantries, Cai Jingzhuang said calmly: "The new household marriage law is based on the brother-in-law and cousin. If the new household marriage law can be implemented as soon as possible, there will be no disadvantages in marriages in the world."

Li Kefei nodded slightly. He also strongly agreed with the new household marriage law. After all, it was based on his own daughter.

Fan Zheng shook his head and said: "The new household marriage law raises the age for men and women to get married. In addition, the household registration management in various places needs more officials to sign marriage certificates. If it is implemented rashly, I am afraid it will cause chaos in the world. A certain buffer period is still needed to allow It would be better for people in the world to understand each other more."

"When does your brother-in-law think it's best to implement the new household marriage law?" Cai Jing said unequivocally.

"Next year!" Fan Zheng said solemnly.

The one-year public notice period for new household marriage laws can give people around the world a buffer time. Those who want to get married can do so in advance, and those who want to follow the new household marriage laws are naturally not in a hurry.

"Cai heard that many officials of the old party criticized the new marriage laws, especially Neo-Confucianism, and they highly praised the parents' orders for matchmakers. Isn't Fan Taicheng afraid of long dreams at night?" Cai Jing asked.

Cai Jing was not an alarmist. The new household marriage law greatly weakened the authority of parents' orders. This greatly dissatisfied the Luo Party, which was mainly based on Neo-Confucianism, and repeatedly went to court to oppose it.

"The Neo-Confucianism that preserves the principles of nature and destroys human desires?" Fan Zheng sneered.

"Preserve the principles of nature and destroy human desires!" Cai Jing and Li Kefei were shocked. Fan Zheng summarized the core ideas of Neo-Confucianism in a concise and comprehensive way.

Fan Zheng shook his head and said: "To maintain the natural principles, destroying human desires is just saying one thing and doing another. In the view of doctors, everyone has seven emotions and six desires. In fact, no one can meet the standard of destroying human desires. This Let those who call themselves gentlemen say one thing and do another, and everyone in the world will talk about benevolence, righteousness, and morality, and cover themselves up with hypocrisy, but they cannot do it themselves. At the same time, they ask others to destroy their desires and treat others harshly."

"Hypocritical to cover yourself and treat others harshly!"

Li Kefei couldn't help but be shocked. When he was in Luoyang City, he used to appreciate Neo-Confucianism. Now after Fan Zhengyi analyzed it, he couldn't help but break into a cold sweat.

Fan Zhengzheng said: "Fan is not afraid of the objections of Neo-Confucianism. He is promoting the new household marriage law. It is not for his own selfishness, but to allow all lovers in the world to get married. This is both natural law and human desire. The real rule of the world should be It is the natural law that human beings want to coexist, rather than destroying human desires.”

"Master Fan's words are inspiring! Cai has learned a lesson." Cai Jing cooperated.

Fan Zheng criticized the existence of natural principles and the destruction of human desires, which gave the new party a theoretical weapon to deal with the old party. Of course, astute Cai Jing naturally heard the implication of Fan Zheng's words. Without legitimate reasons, Fan Zheng did not support the abolition of the queen.

........................

"Neo-Confucianism preserves natural principles and destroys human desires! Cover yourself with hypocrisy and treat others harshly!"

“Doctors believe that nature and human desire coexist!”

With the support of the New Party, Fan Zheng's summary and criticism of Neo-Confucianism immediately spread to both the government and the public.

At this moment, Neo-Confucianism has not yet reached the stage of unifying Confucianism, where it will be unified in later generations. However, doctors are at the peak of their power, and they single out the biggest shortcomings of Neo-Confucianism at a glance, which immediately arouses a huge response in the academic world.

In particular, Su Shi, who represented the Shu Party, did not deal with the Luo Party, which was represented by Neo-Confucianism. He openly campaigned for the new household marriage law in the Di newspaper, insinuating the hypocrisy of Neo-Confucianism.

"Evil doctor Fan Zheng is double-dealing!"

The old party members were immediately furious and said that the new household marriage law had a lot to do with the abolition of the official family. However, Fan Zheng, who was the blueprint for the new household marriage law, had repeatedly swung back and forth between favoring and opposing the abolition of the empress. .

At this moment, there was news that the post-abolition dispute had come to a standstill.

"Princess Fuqing is sick!"

As soon as this news came out, everyone immediately kept silent. Although the new party wanted to abolish the queen, now that Princess Fuqing is ill, if they continue to push for the abolition of the queen, they may be criticized.
