The queen's words made the blood of Mrs. Chen and Master Xu boil.
If these words were spoken by others, they might not inspire much, but since these words were spoken by the Queen, their weight would naturally be different and the shock they would bring would be different.
"Mrs. Chen, what I said today based on their family affairs seems abrupt, but in fact it is helpless. How many women will choose to hide it in their hearts when they are wronged, and don't even want to say a word to others, for fear of getting into trouble.
If you do good deeds or gain fame for the overall situation, it is good, but if you make yourself suffer humiliation and grievance to achieve any kind of reputation, that is ridiculous, because what is achieved is not your own face, but the man's face, too.
It’s not my own reputation, it’s the so-called family’s reputation.”
"I don't mean to make everyone suffer. If you have any grievances, you have to tell others. Some people also like to hide their feelings, but they have to be given another choice. Now the court actually has laws to protect women.
, but everyone doesn’t use it, why don’t you use it? Because you won’t look good after you make a fuss, and it’s useless to be afraid of making a fuss. It’s better to endure it yourself. Mrs. Chen, do you think this is the case now? In such a situation, especially
You, the dignitaries and the family members of the officials are the most important thing. In the mansion of the aristocratic family, the more you like to cover up, but I hope you can set an example and let the women of the Northern Tang Dynasty see your bravery. Over time, those women who have been wronged will dare to
Stand up and resist, and what we have to do is to open this hole."
"In everything, you have to take the first step to know how to go in the future." Yuan Qingling emphasized this sentence in the end.
Mrs. Chen was so convinced that she knelt down and kowtowed respectfully, "It is better to listen to your Majesty's words than to live for a hundred years. I know your Majesty's hard work, and I will not disappoint you. I look forward to the future of the Northern Tang Dynasty, where women can hold up half the sky."
"Mrs. Chen, I will," Yuan Qingling looked at her and said, "But this day needs us to fight for it, not rely on gifts or men's awakening."
Yuan Qingling does not advocate the opposition between men and women, nor does he advocate women to compare with men. He just wants to open up a relatively free living space for women.
After Mrs. Chen left, Yuan Qingling and Master Xu talked privately for a while.
Master Xu also spoke the truth, "Actually, a civilian woman has wanted to move out for a long time, but leaving her mother-in-law alone, she is really afraid that outsiders will criticize her children for being unfilial. You know, if you are accused of being unfilial, you won't even be able to talk about being married.
, so this matter has been postponed again and again, and now we have only bought four houses, with two more to go. If we want to divide the family, we will have to wait until they all get married."
Yuan Qingling couldn't help but admire her, "You are really amazing. A woman has raised several children so well. Now that the children are older, you don't have to work too hard on yourself."
"The Queen is too praised. Parents always plan for their children. Although they have their own futures now, they are not married yet. Getting married will definitely cost a lot of money. In the future, if you have children, you will also need a helping hand at home.
, the women don’t feel it’s hard, and they can still make money, so they continue to earn. The more women save some money for them, the less hardship they will have to endure in the future.”
Yuan Qingling patted the back of her hand and said, "I guess you have your own plan, and I won't give you too many ideas. It's up to you."
Master Xu said gratefully: "Thank you for your concern and kindness. I will remember it in my heart."
"Take good care of yourself." Yuan Qingling felt a little sad. She had worked hard for so many years, and all she could think about was the kindness of others. How rare it was.
After leaving the Lu family, Yuan Qingling returned to the palace. Someone will naturally handle Beiya's affairs. She, the queen, has shown her face, and there is a direction for what to do next.
However, Lao Wu angrily said that Qin Huan and his son should be dealt with first. Yuan Qingling thought for a moment and said, "Just deal with Qin Huan, but not his son."
"How can we not deal with his son? That would be a disaster." Lao Wu objected to his wife for the first time.
Yuan Qingling took his hand and sat down, and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, just ask Gu Si to take care of Qin Huan. As for his son, just keep it for your son, okay?"
Bao'er will definitely be very angry because of the red eyes and the injury to Master Xu. If everything is settled when he comes back, he won't be able to express his anger, leaving him with this young master of Qin.
, so that he can vent his anger.
Lao Wu suddenly turned from anger to joy, "You are still thoughtful."
Yuan Qingling rubbed her temples, "Bao'er always said that he would grow up with Chi Tong slowly, but he is really too busy. We can help, but some of the things we shouldn't help should be left to him.
Play.”
"Everything you said is right." Lao Wu was so flattering, and the officials' corrupt behavior alarmed Lao Yuan, which already made him very angry. This chapter has been completed!
