Chapter 505: Use the whole world as an experiment to promote the progress of civilization!
After experiencing the danger of being nearly split into three parts, Luo Fu clearly realized that for him, both the otherworldly divinity and the animality were absolutely indispensable.
As the saying goes in The Three-Body Problem, if you lose your humanity, you lose a lot; if you lose your animality, you lose everything.
There is no doubt that Luo Fu's own previous experience is undoubtedly a true proof of this.
But what he almost lost was his humanity, divinity and animality.
It’s not that Luofu is pretentious and wants everything, but he knows clearly that whether it is using the whole world as an experiment to promote the progress of civilization or the desire for stamp collecting hairpins, these are all him, an inseparable part of him.
The existence called Luofu has such nature.
Now all the women of the Jia family have been rushed into the Ye Ting Palace.
But for Luofu now, he doesn't have much time to appreciate the gold hairpin.
After all, for him, the most urgent task is to complete the ceremony of coronation first, and in the process, he also needs to prepare for the subsequent chaos in the world.
Luo Fu had a clear view of the gentry class. As long as their interests were not affected, they would be the most staunch supporters of Luo Fu's enthronement. However, once Luo Fu wanted to redistribute the interests of the world, these former supporters would instantly become his biggest enemies.
These people are incapable of accomplishing anything, but are always capable of causing trouble.
No matter how big a commotion they make, they cannot shake Luofu's rule. After all, they have no idea what kind of opponent they are facing.
Luo Fu is truly capable of delivering a dimensional attack to this world!
But what Luofu wants is not chaos in the world, but to promote the progress of civilization.
Of course, the progress of this civilization needs to be under his control and cannot threaten his enjoyment, otherwise Luofu would not mind overthrowing everything and starting over.
While making preparations for both situations, because the coronation ceremony was approaching, Princess Lin Daiyu, who set out from Jinling, arrived one step later than Luofu; Xue Baochai, Xue Baoqin, Xiangling; Miaoyu and Xing Xiuyun; Jia Yuanchun, Jia Yingchun and Jia Tanchun and other female relatives who fell into Luofu's hands for various reasons, finally arrived in the capital late, ready to welcome the enthronement after Luofu ascended the throne.
Now Luofu's ascension to the throne is truly what everyone wants.
Although the old members of the Luotian Army under his command are loyal to Luofu because of the Seed of Yuan Energy, it does not mean that they have no aspirations. They also want to be promoted.
The people below want to move up, so for Luofu, a self-employed group, of course they have to push Luofu to move up.
If Luofu doesn't move forward, how can they make progress?
This is true for the civil and military officials in the outer court, and also for the women in the harem.
They are the more urgent group.
Only by pushing Luofu further can Queen Lin Daiyu truly become the empress and the mother of the country.
Only then can the Xue sisters and the three sisters of the Jia family truly secure their rightful places.
With such popular support, Luofu wanted to use the preparations for the coronation ceremony to cover up the redistribution of the world's interests after he ascended the throne.
This forced Luo Fu to temporarily put aside his curiosity about the women of the Jia family who rushed into the Ye Ting Palace.
Ye Ting Palace.
The women of the Jia family waited anxiously for several days, but still received no news.
At the beginning, Wang Xifeng and others were even afraid that they would be summoned by Luofu and even favored, but now they are looking forward to it.
The Ye Ting Palace was a prison-like place, except that it was located inside the imperial palace.
After being locked up here, the former female members of the Ning and Rong mansions truly experienced what it meant to have no food without work.
However, even if they worked very hard, their treatment was far from what they had received in the Jia family before. At best, they could just keep themselves from starving to death. Moreover, these former ladies of high rank were unable to adapt to the changing needs in terms of food, clothing, housing, and daily life.
"Sister-in-law, what do you think the new emperor is thinking?" Wang Xifeng, who was sweating profusely, stretched her sore wrists and said, "He doesn't really intend to make us serve as rough maids in the palace for the rest of our lives, does he?"
During this period, Wang Xifeng truly experienced the treatment of a rough maid.
Not to mention anything else, the clothes that needed to be washed every day almost completely exhausted this man who was known as a hero among women.
This is also based on the premise that there are other people to help share the burden, such as Ping'er and others.
Now Wang Xifeng has begun to look forward to being favored by Luofu more and more eagerly. Not to mention being favored by him, she can agree to anything as long as she is not forced to continue working like this. Her bottom line is getting lower and lower due to the repetitive work day after day, and it is almost gone.
Li Wan, who was also very tired from working, wiped the sweat from her forehead and said with deep worry on her brow: "There is no possibility of meeting the new emperor in the Ye Ting Palace, unless the new emperor actively summons us."
After hearing Li Wan's explanation, Wang Xifeng became more concerned about her worried look. She consoled her, "Sister-in-law, Lan'er is still young. Even if... even if the three judicial departments impose a heavy sentence on our family, Lan'er may not die."
When she said this, Li Wan almost burst into tears.
Her voice was trembling as she said, "I...Feng girl, I'm more worried now. Lan'er has also been sentenced to enter the palace. What should I do then?"
Wang Xifeng was stunned and said in astonishment, "This... is impossible? Doesn't the new emperor only like women?"
Li Wan was choked for a moment.
At this moment, the topic they were talking about was obviously not on the same channel.
Wang Xifeng just subconsciously projected the experiences of the female members of the family onto the male members.
Little did people know that if a male member of the family committed a serious crime and was sentenced to enter the palace, it meant that he would be castrated.
Yes, in the feudal dynasty, there was a special term for castrating the young male members of the criminal's family and rushing them into the palace.
Entering the palace is fire.
Young male criminals were sent to the palace as minor servants.
What Li Wan feared most was hearing this news. Compared to letting Jia Lan enter the palace as a fireman, she even hoped that Jia Lan would be sentenced to exile, a life-threatening situation.
It’s not that Li Wan doesn’t want Jia Lan to be alive, but compared to living a life worse than death, losing hope is what Li Wan fears the most.
After all, if they were exiled, then theoretically, there was still a future and hope. If one generation failed, there was still the next generation. But if they entered the palace as a minor, then everything would be over. From Li Wan's blushing explanation, I understood the worries of this sister-in-law.
Wang Xifeng also became somewhat confused.
Although the two sisters-in-law had been working intensively in the Ye Ting Palace during this period, they were really looking forward to being summoned by Luofu.
But the original intention is different.
Li Wan did everything for her son Jia Lan, while Wang Xifeng did everything for herself.
Of course, this is not to say that Wang Xifeng is really selfish, but that her husband Jia Lian had been missing for a year and she had prepared to be a widow, but she suddenly learned that Jia Lian was still alive and had even been sentenced to castration by King Zhao in the Jinling Palace. Now the Jia family is being liquidated by the new dynasty.
Under such circumstances, Wang Xifeng had almost no hope, and the only thing she could rely on was naturally herself.
The terrible situation and bleak future left the two sisters-in-law staring at each other in silence.
But soon, the sound of footsteps coming from afar made many female members of the Jia family in the Ye Ting Palace stand up hurriedly and bow to greet them.
The Yiting Palace was a form of labor reform for the female members of the family. The intensity of the labor was so great that it might not be a big deal for the common people at the bottom of society, and they could just grit their teeth and endure it. But for these pampered ladies of the government, it was an absolute torture.
And every time someone comes, it means that their workload will increase significantly.
As criminals, they have no human rights at all in this palace.
With the order from the chief eunuch, no one physically punished the women of the Jia family, but the mere fact of starvation was enough to make them surrender.
Hunger is definitely one of the ultimate punishments for humans.
However, when they saw the person coming, the women of the Jia family were all stunned.
Especially Wang Xifeng, she was stunned for a moment, and her eyes turned red in an instant.
The person who was looking at Wang Xifeng in silence was none other than Jia Lian, the former legitimate son of the Rongguo Mansion of the Jia family and the nominal heir to the Rongguo Mansion.
However, the Jia Lian in front of him was wearing a middle-class eunuch's attire, and his feminine aura was even more intense than when he lived a life of luxury in the past.
Finally coming to her senses, Wang Xifeng looked miserable and stammered, "Second Master, you...we..."
Although his current identity as a eunuch makes Jia Lian feel ashamed to face Wang Xifeng, his former wife, and the women in his family.
But at least he is the tallest among the short people in the Jia family, and the only talented one who can be mentioned.
But now, the true legal heir to the Rongguo Mansion of the previous dynasty appeared in eunuch's attire.
More importantly, the temperament of Lian Er clearly told everyone present that he was no longer a complete man, especially those among them who were once women of the Jia family.
There is Wang Xifeng, his former wife, Jia Xichun, his cousin, and Li Wan, his sister-in-law.
Although he felt ashamed and angry inside, Jia Lian also understood that it was not the time for him to die. Death was easy, but if his death offended Luofu, the founder of the new dynasty, then the Jia family would be completely finished.
Jia Lian knew that the Jia family would not have a good ending after the rise of Luofu. The hatred of the Jia family's servants who forced the Luofu family to be destroyed would inevitably be avenged on the Jia family.
If there were no girls from the Jia family in Luofu's harem, or in other words, Luofu's wife was not Lin Daiyu, the niece of the Jia family, then Jia Lian would really be prepared to die rather than be humiliated. Of course, this kind of preparation could be more accurately described as the despair after having no hope at all.
But when there is hope of preserving the continuation of the family, no matter how slim this hope is, he can sacrifice himself for it. After all, he has been castrated now and is a disabled person anyway, and he will not have a good ending.
If he could really work hard and allow the Jia family's bloodline to continue, after one or even two generations, the Jia family might have the possibility of reviving.
After all, there are too many women related to the Jia family in the Luofu harem, some of whom are even girls from the Jia family.
Taking a deep breath, Jia Lian knew very well that now was not the time to lament the past or reminisce and complain with the women in the family.
"Sister Feng, sister-in-law, listen to me." After calming down, Jia Lian looked at Li Wan and Wang Xifeng seriously and said, "His Royal Highness Prince Zhao will soon ascend the throne. You should also know that the hatred between our Jia family and His Royal Highness Prince Zhao, if we can't get Prince Zhao to show some leniency, our Jia family will definitely eradicate it completely."
"Lian Er, what exactly do you want to say?" Wang Xifeng looked confused.
When it comes to money, Wang Xifeng is still very astute, and she even has some talent in housekeeping, but when it comes to big things, Wang Xifeng instantly exposes her shortcomings.
You have to know that Wang Xifeng was capable of doing such a thing as selling out the favors of the Jia family for three thousand taels of silver. Just three thousand taels made her completely offend a local official with real power.
However, the fortune of the Jia family is indeed concentrated on these beautiful women.
Wang Xifeng was unable to react and didn't understand, but Li Wan's eyes suddenly lit up.
During this period, while working in the Ye Ting Palace, Li Wan was always thinking about how to save her Lan'er.
Unfortunately, being in the Ye Ting Palace, a place that was almost like a prison, she was completely cut off from any communication with the outside world. She only knew about Luofu through hearsay, so how could she come up with any solution?
Now Jia Lian's arrival has given Li Wan a glimmer of hope. Even if this hope is so slim, she will do it at all costs.
"Uncle Lian, do you have a way to get Prince Zhao to show leniency to the Jia family?" Li Wan asked impatiently.
In just a short moment, Li Wan had guessed that Jia Lian might have a way to completely wipe out the Jia family.
Although the Jia family will certainly be liquidated by Luofu, as long as Luofu shows leniency, even if it is just to show its kindness and follows some traditional etiquette, the son of the Jia family will definitely survive.
There is no doubt that the current generation of the Jia family in charge, Jia Jing, Jia She, Jia Zheng and others, will not escape reckoning.
But even if Luofu had liquidated two generations, theoretically, Jia Lan, who was in the third generation, might have been able to escape.
Even as long as Jia Lan was not killed and was not castrated to serve as a concubine in the palace, Li Wan could accept it even if he was exiled.
Jia Lian ignored the confused Wang Xifeng and looked at Li Wan and said, "Sister-in-law, for now, our Jia family has only one solution, which is to try our best to please His Royal Highness Prince Zhao. His Royal Highness Prince Zhao seems to have some plans for the women of our Jia family. For the continuation of the Jia family, I hope you can endure the humiliation for a while."
