As soon as the news came out that the Imperial College was recruiting female students, there was a lot of discussion.
"Does the Imperial College recruit female students, or does the Imperial College's medical school recruit female students?" Some people are not sure.
"It's clear and clear, it says that the Imperial College recruits female students."
"I can understand the medical school recruiting female students. Dean of the medical school, Princess Chen is a woman, so she always thinks more about women. Besides, there is indeed a need for female doctors, but what does the Imperial College recruit female students for? To take the top exam?"
"Hard to say."
"If women can join the court and serve as officials, what is the status of men? Isn't it going to cause chaos in the world?"
"Be careful what you say."
...
What was "hard to say" soon became true.
News came from the court that the servant Xia Jingguan, Lord Xia, was kneeling in front of the Zichen Hall and remonstrating with his life against the establishment of female encores and the establishment of female officials.
There was an uproar in the imperial capital.
As a servant who monitors the emperor's words and deeds, Mr. Xia has even remonstrated with death, which means that this matter is very close, and it is probably necessary for the emperor to issue an imperial edict.
It is said that Mr. Xia is upright and dares to speak out.
Facing the emperor, he quoted from classics and gave a comprehensive explanation, proving that "men are superior to women and should do their own thing and must not be messed up." His conclusion shocked everyone: "If women have the same status as men, then why should the queen stand on the throne?"
Behind the emperor, not on the side of the emperor?"
Lu Zheng wanted to cover his ears: Your Majesty, isn't this crazy? God, why should he hear such words?!
The emperor grabbed the inkstone on the table and smashed it over.
Mr. Xia stood proudly and let the inkstone hit his forehead. The blood blurred his vision, but his expression remained unchanged.
He had an expression as if he was looking forward to death.
The emperor said: "If you want to kneel so much, then just kneel!" and left angrily.
The queen, who had been pregnant for more than eight months and could not bear the heat, felt a chill in her heart when she heard this. However, she said nothing, only said she was tired and went back to her room to rest.
Wei Zi happened to be in the Taiyuan Hospital. When the Queen's maid came to report, he dropped what he was doing and rushed to Weiyang Palace.
Aunt Li looked sad at the door: "It's been hot these days, and the Queen has a bad appetite. She didn't eat anything today."
Wei Zi said: "Excuse me, Nanny Li, to eat the food cooked in the small kitchen and pick up some refreshing ones."
"Princess, you're welcome. I'll go get it now."
After a bowl of bird's nest and some snacks were delivered, Nanny Li reported to the room: "Queen, Princess Chen is here."
The queen didn't want to see anyone, except Wei Zi.
Wei Zi put the food on the edge of the cave: "Eat."
"Can't eat it."
"You haven't eaten anything and you're not in a good mood, but you've upset them?" Wei Zi scooped up a spoonful of bird's nest and put it to her mouth just like the queen did when she fed herself.
The queen had no choice but to open her mouth and eat.
One spoonful after another, I ate a few more snacks, my stomach was no longer empty, and the queen finally felt a little better.
She smiled bitterly: "The wind in this imperial capital never stops. But why is it that every time I am pregnant, the wind and rain are strong, and I feel so tired."
"Are you feeling blocked?" Wei Zi asked.
"It's such a big blockage." The queen sighed. If she had to be dragged into matters in the court, she would be punished.
"Then I'll let Feng Shui give Xia Jingguan a beating to vent your anger?" Wei Zi suggested.
