Yuan Qingling tried hard to get the topic back on track. She said: "We have to do this step by step. To change everyone's inherent thinking, we need to first set up girls' schools so that girls can read, read and understand. Secondly, our Women's Federation
Organizations must be established quickly in each state capital and start work. Remember, we are not trying to compete with men. Although men and women should enjoy equal status, we must not use too much force at the beginning and reduce men to the minimum possible extent.
We must not ignore people's disgust and resistance to this matter, and we cannot do it in a hurry, let alone do it without hesitation. We must implement it in an orderly and smooth manner, and reduce resistance in the process."
Rong Yue said: "We don't care whether they are disgusted or not?
If we are afraid of their disgust, what is the point of doing this?
You, an advocate, are you still speaking for men?"
Yuan Qingling looked at her, "Let me ask you, in today's world, do men or women call the shots?"
"Men, that's why we have to resist."
"Since you know that it is men who make the decision, if they resent it, the resistance will become greater. Is the pen in their hands?
Do they have the power to make regulations?
We haven't even taken the first step, but if we arouse their resentment and resistance, can we still succeed?"
Rong Yue thought for a while, you are right, but she just feels a little aggrieved. I have the final say in our family, so I can teach you how to support your wife.
"Rong Yue, everyone, please remember that our purpose is not to provoke antagonism between men and women. Although things may lead to such consequences after implementation, we must avoid this when implementing.
Once the problem is identified, we can correct it in time or provide positive guidance."
"But to be honest, what a woman can do, a man may not be able to do. I think women really don't need to be too aggrieved. Opposition is confrontation, and it's not like we can't stand up."
"Rong Yue, you can't use your identity and family status to summarize the current situation of the entire Northern Tang Dynasty. How many people are there like you?
There are only a few. The labor force in the Northern Tang Dynasty is still dominated by men. Women take care of the housework, take care of the children and serve the parents-in-law. They pay a lot but are not taken seriously. When asking for money, you have to look at people's faces. You ask them to support their wives.
, I’m sending them to be punched, you know?”
"So don't we have the Women's Federation you just mentioned?"
"The Women's Federation is not omnipotent, especially when it was first established. It's great to be able to bring out such a concept and be accepted by everyone. You can't get fat in one bite. You have to do it step by step. When the entire Northern Tang Dynasty began to pay attention to women, the status of women was improved.
, let’s take the next step, and during this period, we can’t find resistance for ourselves, which is why I say we must avoid resistance among men.”
Yuan Qingling spoke seriously, and everyone also became serious. They did not refute her words, but carefully understood the meaning of her words. The sisters-in-law talked for four full hours, asking all the questions they could think of, Jing Jing
He was responsible for recording their conversations, and Princess An was responsible for sorting, refining or deleting them.
With the general direction in mind, Yuan Qingling sent someone out and asked the ladies inside and outside the palace to come into the palace tomorrow and express their opinions together.
As for Beiya, Gu Si had a new errand, so Leng Shoufu handed over the rectification matter to the joint office of the Ministry of Personnel and Jingzhao Mansion.
Qin Huan was temporarily thrown into prison. As for Qin Huan's son, the arrogant Qin II, he only knew that his father was in prison, but he did not know that his father was in prison because of his affairs.
What happened in Beiya was not disclosed to the public. Some officials knew about it, but there was a strict order from above that nothing should be disclosed to the public until the case was decided.
This was mainly because Chu Shoufu considered that the Queen was going to make a fuss about this matter, so he pressed the button first and waited for the Queen's order.
The Qin family members made inquiries everywhere and spent a lot of money, but no one told them the truth. They just vaguely said that they had offended someone and were sent to prison.
The children of the Qin family went to Gu Si's house to find out who they had offended and to see if they could solve the problem by giving gifts to make amends.
Gu Si was not in the house, so his wife Yuan Qingping sent someone to reply and told them to get lost. She was so rude and direct that everyone in the Qin family was frightened into confusion.
After all, in the past, the relationship was between superiors and subordinates, and family members also had contacts.
Later, I asked someone to inquire, and found out that Mr. Gu had also been demoted to the city gate to serve as a guard.
The people of the Qin family thought that the superiors wanted to rectify the military affairs department, which was why Qin Huan was imprisoned. Master Gu's wife is the biological sister of the current empress, so he was not imprisoned, and there was no backing Beiya.
People who are ranked high are now squatting in prison.
Those who have a background are fine, but those who don't have a background are all unlucky. This is so unfair.
After the young master of the Qin family found out, he complained about his father all day long, saying that the officials were unfair and shielding relatives of the emperor and the country.
He has a certain network of people, mostly dandies and gangsters in the capital. They like to talk about the so-called loyalty. After being enthusiastic, they help him complain everywhere, and things really get into trouble.
When things got worse and worse, the prince returned from running an errand and arrived in the capital.
