Chapter nine hundred and forty-two: the goodness of the two countries
What is the difference between opposing women's admission to school and taking the imperial examination as an official?
Officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty did not dare to object, but this edict caused huge waves in the hearts of the envoys of Dayan, Xiao Rongyan, and Xiliang, and Li Zhijie.
Li Zhijie tightened his palms, and in Xiliang... women's status is higher than those of Jin's women, but despite this, their Empress Xiliang did not dare to take the blame for the world after ascending the throne... Some women are appointed as officials.
thought.
Bai Qingyan dared to do such a move when he first ascended the position. Is this kind of courage really sure to win, or is it... he acted in a state of urgency, thinking that he could provoke the etiquette system by becoming the empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty?
Xiao Rongyan, who stood behind the "Nine Prince of Great Yan", looked around calmly. Seeing that almost half of the officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty were not very good-looking, he faintly sweated for Bai Qingyan.
Bai Qingyan seemed too impatient when it comes to enabling women to be officials...
It's not a good thing. Xiao Rongyan's mother, Empress Ji, once wanted to improve the status of a woman and let the woman enter the court as an official, but in the end, the students in Yan State opposed it, and even made the students gathered at the palace gate to scold her mother.
The story of the demon queen ruining the country.
The King of Hedong lowered his eyelids and curled his lips slightly. Sure enough... Bai Qingyan still wanted to use a woman as an official.
In this way, the efforts he sent people to the students during this period were finally in vain, and he could do something on this matter.
After the edict was read, all the officials of the Great Zhou kneeled to thank him.
"Thank you Your Majesty! Long live Your Majesty! Long live the Great Zhou!"
The ceremony of ascension to the throne came to an end in shock with the envoys of the countries.
After the ceremony, there was a banquet to entertain envoys from various countries. The female family members of the important officials and families had entered the palace to the Xuanming Hall where the palace banquet was set up. They sat in the seats where the servants brought them, smiling and greetings from both sides.
Some women from noble families who have read poetry and books have heard that Bai Qingyan issued an edict today to open a girls' school, and Xu took the scientific examination. Xu entered the court and became an official. His hands were trembling with excitement. His years of good tutoring and reserve made them
Holding back the surging emotions, sitting in the seat with a smile, imagining the situation where he could enter the court with his father and become an official and make his father proud.
All the ladies of Qinggui are also knowledgeable and know that Bai Qingyan is planning to improve the status of a woman, which is reasonable. After all, Bai Qingyan himself is a woman.
The entire Xuanming Palace was discussing Bai Qingyan's new policy and the matter of Xu's research and becoming an official.
Previously, there was a new policy that encouraged widows to remarry. A widow who has children is not allowed to take away the property of her husband before remarrying her family. If a widow who is in charge of her parents-in-law is alive, a widow who has children remarrys her husband and she must not take the dowry.
Half of the family property under the name of the name is handed over to parents-in-law. If a woman keeps her children alone and remarries without regard for dowry, she needs to keep her husband's family property in the hands of her children. Once this new policy is released... many literati scolded him for violating the Three Bonds and Five Constitutions, it is also agitated among the people.
There are thousands of waves.
But officials all know that Bai Qingyan's move was to increase the country's population. After all, now that the various countries are fighting, the soldiers die on the battlefield, which adds to the number of widows.
Women have to take care of their children and manage farming and sericulture. How many families have lost their labor force in their families, which has caused the fertile land to be wasted.
How many women's families were driven out of their families because their husbands died, and their family property was seized by their clans, causing their widowed mother and young son to starve to death on the streets. Even families like the Bai family almost suffered this fate.
Every time Bai Qingyan issued an edict, it was a provocation to the old world, and it was so vigorous.
Li Mingrui personally explained to the common people that the widows were encouraged to remarry the widows in order to make their livelihoods and their youngest sons could make a living. The truth was clear, but who would have the most men in the world who would remarry their wives with their children and their property after they died?
The women in the hall were discussing fiercely, and each was eager to try the imperial examination and whether they could win the ranking.
A widowed woman from the Bai clan came to attend the palace banquet as a royal relative today. She stomped the handkerchief in her hand back and forth, her eyes were pounding.
Previously, the new policy was introduced to encourage widows to remarry, but she thought it was just a thunder and rain. But today, Bai Qingyan would open a girls' school as soon as he ascended the throne. Xu took the scientific examination and wanted to use women as an official. It seemed that it was moving.
It's true, should she take this opportunity... Leaving the Bai family, her cousin never remarries her since she lost her wife, just for her. If she could marry her cousin... it would be a good idea for them to have been successful for many years.
Pity.
The Bai woman's hands were covered in sweat. She wiped them with a veil and warned herself not to be anxious... This matter must be brought up after she was almost sure.
Soon, envoys and ministers from various countries entered the hall, and the noble girls used round fans to cover half of their faces, and looked curiously at the masked Prince Jiu of Yan and the Prince Rongdi Ghost Face.
I am interested in the Nine Prince of the Great Yan because I have seen the splendid Emperor Yan Murong Yu. At least so far... These noble girls have never seen a handsome man who is more outstanding than Murong Yu. They want to know this person.
Is the face of the Jiu Prince of Da Yan in a mask as outstanding as his brother?
I was interested in the Ghost Face Prince of Rongdi because I heard that the Ghost Face Prince of Rongdi looked extremely ugly and curiosity drove these ignorant noble girls to see how ugly they were under the mask of the Ghost Face Prince of Rongdi.
As for Li Zhijie, most of the noble ladies who can come to Xuanming Palace today have seen them and are not very curious.
However, Li Zhijie took advantage of the reason why Dayan had asked Xiliang to read the letter of alliance with Rongdi before, and showed goodwill to the Jiugong of Dayan, and talked with the Jiugong of Dayan about the new policy of the Empress Bai Qing of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
.
"The Empress of the Great Zhou has just ascended the throne, and all the new policies issued are provoking secular etiquette and laws, provoking the interests of the aristocratic races, and making progress too quickly and not planning the overall situation. If it were not for the military power, it would be difficult to hold a firm seat!" Li Zhijie
Sitting kneeling before the table, unfolding the iron fracture fan.
The Nine Prince of Dayan, wearing a mask, sat upright, and spoke slowly: "Whose imperial position is not because of the military power? The Yunjing Rebellion... If it weren't for the Yan King's army to protect each other, I would be the female emperor of Xiliang.
The throne is also unstable."
Li Zhijie laughed softly, and his eyes looked at Xiao Rongyan, who was sitting behind the Jiugong of the Great Yan: "I heard... This Mr. Xiao had an engagement with the Empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Today, the Ninth Prince brought Mr. Xiao to come. Is there any?
Have the intention of marrying and joining the alliance? If so, why... Emperor Yan would not allow Mr. Xiao to be granted the title of Mr. Xiao, and to raise Mr. Xiao's identity to make the two countries a favor?"
Li Zhijie intended to sell well in front of Xiao Rongyan, and nodded at Xiao Rongyan with a smile.
