Chapter 589: Free Love and Marriage Draft

After the air battle is over. The two armies temporarily stopped the aerial duel. After all, the Qin Heavenly Army is a veteran air force. However, the Qi State Air Force alone can no longer fight the Qin Army's huge technological advantage by relying on hot air balloons. Simultaneously. A cold wave from the north to the south and the warm and humid air currents from the north converge to form rainfall. Let the air combat stop temporarily.

However, the report of the Celestial Army will be forwarded to the General Staff for approval. After all, the news is too big. It was Qin Army's plane that was shot down in the air battle of Qin State. And it is the first Shangwen aircraft shot down in the world.

And at home. Shang Wen published a draft of free love. If this draft is passed. It will change the traditional marriage customs and other aspects that are not conducive to social development.

This draft is related to the specific lives of the people of Qin. The social impact is huge. Many scheduled wedding ceremonies have been postponed due to free love and simplified wedding ceremonies. In order to appease the hearts of the people. At the same time, the people's right to participate in legislation is increased. Shangwen asked the people to extract their opinions on this draft. King Qin thought about status the same way. After all, the folks oppose too much. Even if this bill is enforced forcibly, it will have a great reactionary force.

The draft content covers many aspects. In particular, some customs related to property will be completely abolished unconditionally. such as. The man's bride price. The wife’s dowry will no longer be allowed. The property registration will be replaced. The property of both spouses is divided directly in accordance with the principle of independence. This mainly caters to Qin's idea of ​​women's independence. It is also the meaning of Shangwen. This is to prevent the husband and wife from causing discord because of their property. And because of property problems, the weaker woman loses her family independence.

Shangwen's starting point is good. But the idea is a bit overwhelming. In fact. There are a large number of housewives in Qin. These housewives already exist in fact. Property registration is no longer possible. It is very difficult to implement.

The difficulty of this implementation. Not without consideration. It is unable to come up with suitable guidelines. Because it is a draft. So the ones that were not considered directly were announced.

On the issue of love and marriage. First of all, Qin State officially stipulated the age at which both spouses should marry. This age refers to the human body research report given by medicine. The age is set so that both men and women can get married at the age of 18. A large number of judicial amendments accompanied it.

In accordance with the provisions of the draft. Yingyu is not yet the age of marriage. At least wait a year or a few months. It is still unclear what day Yingyu's birthday is.

The second is free love. Parents of both men and women can't interfere with each other through other means. This includes property pressure and so on. But Meng Yi added one strangely. The principle of independent existence. That is, both men and women must be financially independent after the age of eighteen. This independent standard is taxation. This is actually adding a precondition for love. You must be financially independent. There is a certain material basis.

Such conditions are forcing both men and women to enter social work. In fact, this is no longer a condition. In Qin State. It has become common for men and women to enter social work from the age of fourteen to sixteen. Just like Lu's pheasant who just came here. The age is only about fourteen years old. If you put it now. This also belongs to the category of child labor. But in Qin State is already working age. It's not just work. Another point is Qin's education system. The educational system of Qin's education system is very chaotic. Especially the social re-education system. In other words. You can study anytime as long as you pay the tuition. But graduation is academic achievement. There is no result than the inability to graduate. It is also the existence of this education system. Especially the continuation of social continuing education. Let many young people choose to work. Then make money to pay tuition. Then work while learning. The advantage of this method is that. What you learn and the work you do are basically the same. Most young people choose majors related to the industry. Once the learning results. Promotion. Or there is a lot of room for entrepreneurship. Qin State gives young people free space at the same time. It also enlarges everyone's social potential infinitely.

you can say so. Without these basic guarantees. Especially the existence of socialized production methods. So Qin’s free love and marriage is nonsense. This is a social need. It is also a social trend.

the last point. Just after entering the marriage. The marriage of both parties will be recognized by the Qin government. Rather than the recognition of a family. Downplay family consciousness. Enhancing the public’s awareness of strangers is also a social need. And this foundation. It is the credibility foundation for the strengthening of Qin's legal system.

These are not enough for the draft to cover Shangwen content. The content also makes clear provisions for some specific practices. For example, gifts for both parties. Change to a specific gift with a value of no more than ten and a half taels. The gift money was cancelled. If found. The penalty will be one hundred times the reward. In addition to the gift money, there is also a meal. The dining requirements of the wedding were uniformly changed to buffet style. The specifications have also made great restrictions. It can't cost fifty gold. If it exceeds. The same will be dealt with in a one-hundred-fold fine.

But for the ceremony. The bill did not interfere too much. Because there is no way to intervene. But the principle is not to be too luxurious. Violator. Huge penalty.

In this way, the draft can control Qin's extravagance. Let society re-enter healthy development.

If we say that this is over. Not enough to cause a huge response. Because of propaganda through the media. These things have been finalized by the people. The problem arises in the division of property. In particular, the issue of concubines is linked to Qin's many interests.

The population of Qin is growing very fast. There are many new generations. There are a large number of mixed races in this generation. The reason comes from the spoils. Yueshi women have some characteristics of the Western Regions. Especially the tall figure. Let the increasingly wealthy people of Qin take the possession of tall western women as a symbol of wealth. Most of their existence are prisoners of war. So the status itself is not equal. Many people enter the house as a concubine. Mainly used to reproduce offspring. Most of them played the role of domestic servants. Does not participate in social production.

Asking directions is that the draft requires concubines and their children to enjoy the same rights as their wives and children. This includes inheritance rights and the same social status rights. Shangwen originally wanted to abolish concubines. But this is inconsistent with Qin's population policy. Shang Wen made a compromise. But this section of the bill still had a huge impact. This is almost an explosive one.

The status and rights of wives and concubines will be equal and they will also enjoy the same inheritance rights. People were dumbfounded. They can't imagine what this will happen.

Those mixed-race children didn't have national consciousness in the first place. But the foreign war allowed Qin to see the excitement of the outside world. Especially some differences in physical and physical. These differences gave birth to racial discrimination. Marriage is not responsible. But it is complicated when it comes to property. But Shang Wen accidentally touched on another issue. race. Shang Wen is in big trouble.
