female concubine

In the summer of the 20th year of Qianyuan, the emperor suddenly summoned Liu Miaoyi, a housekeeper, to draft an edict for the establishment of women’s department, and ordered the capital to go to Zouyuan and distribute it to the prefectures and counties by post. After receiving the edict ordering the woman to be selected for the township examination, the state officials posted a list at the gate of the yamen and ordered the officials to run around to tell each other.

The emperor's edict was issued suddenly, and the officials in the capital did not realize until the edict arrived in the prefectures and counties, and then they all went to the edict to ask the emperor to withdraw, but many officials dared not speak out because of the lessons learned by the previous scholars.

The emperor did not go to court for one month in a row, and all the officials blocked the inner east gate, and had no choice but to go out to the court to summon him.

A group of imperial city officials in armor surrounded hundreds of officials in the palace corridor, and the emperor walked out of the inner east gate, "My lords, are you trying to force the palace?"

"I dare not wait."

On the palace corridors on both sides, Yulong crossbows and Yulong bows and arrows, as well as Shenji battalion, set up crossbows and Zhang bows and pointed guns at the officials, frightening the noble officials in the middle so that their legs went weak.

"I have already said that my body complains about not being promoted..."

"Your Majesty!" A few old officials who were not afraid of death took the lead and knelt down, begging bitterly: "The law of the ancestors must not be abolished, otherwise the world will turn upside down in the end. Your Majesty has forgotten how the empress of the previous dynasty harmed the clan members Is it?"

"Tiger poison doesn't even eat its offspring, but women are so vicious that they don't even spare their own flesh and blood. Since the founding of Emperor Tai Zugao, through Taizong Wuzong and His Majesty's four dynasties, Fang Youwei and Song Dynasty have flourished today. Your Majesty supports women like this and loves them. Gong, the young master is still young and has not experienced worldly affairs, so in the future, is His Majesty going to let women control the government and then do the affairs of the Empress Dowager?"

The emperor clasped his hands together, and raised his indifferent eyes, "So what if you are, so what if you are not, I will take back the barbarians in the north of Hebei." You are the ones who have made great achievements, tell me," the emperor took a step closer, "who is the most hypocritical person in the world?"

"If it weren't for me holding the power firmly, I think you would have wanted to drive me out of this seat a long time ago!"

"The minister is terrified."

"I regained Hexi, regained Saibei, and doubled the territory of the kingdom. None of this has anything to do with you. It's almost because you not only can't take it back, but you also have to bear the eternal infamy. Are you going to die? Is it an honor?" The emperor pointed to the wall, "I will never take back the edict."

"The emperor did not listen to the advice, changed the ancestral legal system to make a woman in power, and handed over the Wei family's country to a woman with a foreign surname. Emperor Taizong

The emperor, the ministers are incompetent! The official raised his head to the sky and shouted loudly, with a strong feeling, he immediately took off the straight-legged Futou, and kowtowed heavily at the emperor three times.

The emperor turned around indifferently, "Strip the leader of the disturbance and send him home, so he doesn't have to come to see him again in the future."

The imperial guards of the imperial city stepped forward and dragged away a few ministers who seemed to have no backbone, and saw a few of them throwing off their sleeves and struggling to escape, "Your Majesty, how can there be two masters in the world? Your Majesty is the king of all ages. He will expand the territory and build a century-old foundation." , Your Majesty has enough prestige to frighten the courtiers and officials, and has enough power to control millions of troops to gallop on the battlefield. However, the young master is young and has no experience in the world. He does not know the dangers of the court and has no power to obey the general. In fact, it is His Royal Highness who takes power, and I risk my life to ask, after your majesty, the young master ascends the throne, is your majesty not afraid of repeating what happened to the previous mistress?" The old minister took a few steps forward, "This country belongs to the Wei family. If in the future the foreign relatives control the court and the imperial power falls, how can your majesty have the face to meet the ancestors, can your majesty still enter the ancestral temple?"

The emperor turned around angrily, "I don't need you to meddle in my housework, hers is my wife, and I know her better than you." Staring at his bloodshot eyes, he roared, "I won't allow you to do it either." Anyone slanders her!"

The more the emperor defended, the more the officials felt that this matter had something to do with the queen. The woman standing quietly watching in the inner east gate suddenly stepped out of the gate, startling the kneeling courtiers, the emperor was stunned. turned around.

"The official family." Before the emperor could speak, Xiao Youqing said again: "Kui Guang sent the official family back to Funing Hall to rest first."

As the emperor approached, Xiao Youqing said to Qifu, "I have a few words I want to say to all the scholars in the pavilion."

"... "

Hearing the Queen's tepid words, the officials in the scarlet robe who were kneeling behind the purple robe began to retreat timidly.

The emperor turned his head and immediately stepped into the inner east gate. The old minister knelt up and crawled forward, shouting: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

"Bachelor Yang." Xiao Youqing turned his gaze to the scholar Ge, and immediately waved to the servant beside him.

The servant then helped several old officials up, Xiao Youqing said again: "I respect you as an attendant of the former emperor and the present and last two dynasties, I can't bear you to kneel and talk when you are old."

The veteran waved his hands and repelled the two courtiers, "The inner court preaches that you are benevolent and magnanimous, but I see you bewitching the king to do the wrong things in the world, and accusing the king of interfering in the government. Is it a delusion to usurp the son's power after your majesty?"

Xiao Youqing still didn't change his face, staring at the bachelor coldly, "Do you think everyone is full of desire for power, do you think everyone is tempted by power?

Or do you think that everyone in this cage-like Miyagi likes it? "

"You use your selfishness to slander a person you have no knowledge of, and you use your selfishness to condemn what you think is a paradox. Do you dare to say that you have no selfishness when you kneel here today?" Xiao Youqing raised his head and looked at the kneeling behind The people who were lying down said, "And you!"

The kneeling ministers were too frightened to speak.

"Are you kneeling here today for the country, for the emperor, or..." Xiao Youqing stared, "Or just for you!"

"For my poor self-esteem, for the power, interests, and desires in my hands."

All the ministers looked at each other in blank dismay, not daring to look up at the queen, so they had to bury their heads lower.

Xiao Youqing took a long breath, looked at the inner east gate, the palace gate that separates the inner court from the inner court, "I don't want the country of the Wei family, nor your emperor," then turned his head to look at the ministers, red and wet Eye sockets, "I just want my husband, wherever she is, I will be there."

"You who are utilitarian will never understand what we have experienced between us, and you will never understand that what is more important than power, status, and money in this world is a sincere heart."

The few ministers below looked at each other suspiciously, and said in a very low voice: "Could it be that the women's department was not instigated by Her Royal Highness the Queen?"

-------------------------------

The news about women's department spread to the prefectures and counties and caused a national sensation. The biggest change since the reform was the establishment of this women's department. Most state officials couldn't believe their eyes when they received the imperial court's documents.

The magistrate of Jiangling handed the documents from the imperial court to the clerk next to him, "Look, the reforms and reforms have finally changed all the old systems of the ancestors, allowing women to govern, but since the Zhou Dynasty thousands of years ago, only the previous dynasty has done this. One person has never heard of women's subjects in the hundreds of years since the establishment of the imperial examination, so if you want a woman to be an official, you have to fall into trouble."

Muke looked at the content of the edict in the document, "Our official is really unusual."

"No, why did the government suddenly open a women's department?"

The curtain guest shook his head, "It wasn't sudden. In the previous system of female officials, the imperial court also produced a female servant who was in charge of the imperial edict. This was a step-by-step foreshadowing."

"The official family has been on the throne for 20 years, and there has always been only the Empress of the Central Palace... Could it be that you have heard the rumors?" The prefect immediately stared in surprise, "Could it be that Wei Song will also have a female lead in the future?"

Mu Ke sighed, "This is an imperial decree, not only our Jiangling Mansion has received it, but if it comes, we will make it safe, the officials insist on this, the magistrate is far away from the capital, do you want to go to the sparse

Against the decree? "

The magistrate immediately shook his head, "The capital is full of imperial officials, many court officials have been demoted, isn't the county magistrate below Jiangling demoted from purple robe to green robe, me, I have been sitting in this seat for 15 years at this age It's the end of the day to accept Zi without fault, and I won't get involved in those head-losing things."

In the long summer of the 20th year of Qianyuan, under the coercion and lure of the emperor's resignation and relegation, the voice of opposition in the court gradually decreased, but there were still some people who advised and advised the emperor. In the same imperial examination, the women's subject, which was taken once a year, was changed to a three-year test, which made the opposition a little smaller. Later, an edict was issued that the Jinshi subject would not change, and the female Jinshi subject would take the same exam as the original Jinshi subject.

In the autumn of the 20th year of Qianyuan, the officials of various states added to the examination room, less than one-tenth of the men took the test, but there were also many talented women who took the test out of curiosity.

In the same month, the Gongyuan of the Ministry of Rites of Wuchengwang Temple was completed and turned into two sides. Except for the old Zhigongyuan, the other side was added as an examination room for female subjects.

In September 20th, Wang Wenfu and Liu Miaoyi, a member of Neishe, perfected the system of women's subjects, and the rules were the same as those of Jinshi subjects.

The news spread all over the country, and every restaurant, tea house, and brothel were talking about it for several months. The emperor's move was dissatisfied with many literati, and some talented scholars wrote poems and inscriptions to criticize the government order and vent their dissatisfaction.

The tabloid spread to Jinling, and a temporary thatched cottage was built next to the Jiang family's ancestral grave, and Jiang Luochuan had kept his father's filial piety inside for two years.

The house boy came over with a food box to deliver the food, "Master, the tabloids of the day."

Jiang Luochuan grabbed a steamed bun with his chopsticks, "Let's see after eating."

"The contents of the tabloids have been all about it for the past few months, and the little one also felt that the officials were really ridiculous, so I brought the tabloids over to you."

Jiang Luochuan stopped chewing, "What content?"

"The government has set up a women's department. This year's Qiuwei is the first test. It is the same exam as the Jinshi department. Many women in the inner house want to go, but they are all ordered by their own men. I heard that the lady from the Li family in the next county And because of this, they climbed over the fence and clamored to make peace."

Jiang Luo Chuanxuan put down the steamed bun, opened the tabloid and tore it up with wide eyes, "Ridiculous!" Then he got up and walked to his father's grave, knelt down and kowtowed three times, and then went to his grandfather's grave to offer incense, "Since he ascended the throne, the Son of Heaven, regardless of The family law of the ancestors allowed the relatives to be in charge of the military and the harem to be in charge of the government, and now there is a women's department, and no one in the court dares to stop it, and the grandson is not filial, so he can't be filial in front of Weng and Dad."

Jiang Luochuan went back to his ancestral house to mourn, but was stopped by his uncle who had retired.

"Where are you going?"

"Uncle, don't you think that the officials are becoming more and more confused, especially after a serious illness a few years ago, they let the Zhonggong hang down the curtain many times."

"His Royal Highness is your aunt's daughter!" Jiang Fu said repeatedly, leaning on crutches.

"Etiquette is etiquette, and it should not be interfered with by private affairs."

"Brother only has you as his son, do you want him to die under the Nine Springs?"

Jiang Luochuan clutched the cuffs of his narrow sleeves, and immediately took the horse's rein and stepped on the horse, "I can't turn a blind eye."

----------------------------

At the beginning of October and early winter, the weather gradually turned cold, charcoal basins had been burned in the hall, and charcoal and cotton clothes were distributed from the charcoal storehouse to the officials of the court.

——Kunning Hall——

The crown prince walked into the main hall with a happy face, and the restraints around his waist made disorganized sounds. The emperor led the queen to sit down. Seeing his anxious face, Xiao Youqing began to teach: "The ancient sage kings have rules. , There are articles in motion, and the position is adjudicated, and Mingyu is used to act."

"My son is disrespectful." The crown prince slowed down, "Crown crown prince Wei Xu respectfully welcomes Sheng'an," he knelt down with his daughter and said, "How is Shenggong today?"

The emperor waved to the little princess on the prince's side, "I bow to you."

"How is your majesty doing today?"

"Yi'an."

The crown prince then got up and went back to the dining table to sit down.

The emperor hugged Princess Le'an on his lap, "What would Chen'er want to eat?"

Princess Le'an pointed to a plate of mutton-stuffed crystal horns and crispy abalone and looked up: "Weng Weng, I want this."

The crown prince sat and turned sideways, "Chen'er!"

Princess Le'an withdrew her hand, and the emperor picked up chopsticks and put a dime and a piece of crispy abalone into his special celadon bowl, "It's okay, just tell Weng Weng what Chen'er wants to eat." The palace servants from the bureau stepped forward and brought the chopsticks placed on another table to the emperor's table.

"Daddy, the son left in a hurry just now because..."

Xue Jin, the Secretary of the Imperial City, walked into the hall with a tabloid, crossed his hands and bowed, "Officials, saints, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

The emperor held the little granddaughter firmly to prevent her from falling out of his arms, "What's the matter?"

Xue Jin bowed to Xiao Youqing, then stepped over to the emperor's side and bent down, "A while ago, a talented man in the south of the Yangtze River filled out a piece of lyrics and music in "The Case of Green Jade", which was about the establishment of women's department in the official family, and the villain copied it into a copy. .” Xue Jin took out the poem from his narrow sleeve.

Xiao Youqing, who was sitting beside the emperor, also heard something, so he turned around and embraced Princess Le'an who was sitting on the emperor's lap.

past.

The emperor rolled his eyes, and suddenly stopped when he saw a small vertical line in the middle, "The country is not broken, the family is scattered first... There is a struggle in the open air, wind and rain, and a seven-foot man is ashamed to be a minister..."

Xue Jin hurriedly knelt down, "I have ordered someone to go to the south of the Yangtze River to arrest the lyricist..."

The emperor raised his hand, "They are all children, what do you want to catch him? This man is so bold that he doesn't even try to hide it." Then he put down the paper, picked up the chopsticks and clamped a crystal corner, "Today's mutton is not chopped enough. thin."

"It's all my son's fault. I had served two snacks earlier today, but I thought the crystal corner was not boring, so I let them eat it."

The emperor put down his chopsticks and glanced at the person kneeling beside him, "Paste the transcript of this poem on the wall."

Xue Jin raised his head, then got up on his knees, "Yes."

Xue Jin bowed back and left, the emperor leaned back on his chair and called out: "Submit the list of lyricists and this transcript to the Tribute Court of the Ministry of Rites."

Xue Jin stopped and bowed forward, picked up the note on the table and put it back into his sleeve, "Yes."

"A seven-foot man is ashamed to be a minister..."

Princess Le'an jumped down from Xiao Youqing's arms and walked to the emperor's side, stood on tiptoe and stretched out her immature hands to rub the emperor's eyebrows, "Weng Weng is not sad."

The emperor raised his head sideways, and immediately touched the little princess's forehead, "Okay." Holding the armrest, he sat upright and said, "It's exactly the same as your father when he was a child."

The crown prince who had been sitting quietly and listening suddenly raised his head, "Daddy...do you still remember when you were young..."

"Of course I remember, you were cute when you were young, but now that you're older, you've become dull..."

"Officials." Qi Liu stepped into the hall, "The former censor Jiang Luochuan asked to see him."

The emperor paused, "Isn't he keeping his filial piety in Jinling?"

"He...Mr. Jiang is wearing a court uniform and the Xiezhi crown of a law enforcement officer and kneels outside the inner east gate. This is Mr. Jiang's Shangshu." Qi Liu submitted a memorial.

The author has something to say: in the Song Dynasty, it was stipulated that those who had served for 15 years without fault could wear scarlet or purple but not fish bags.

There is no antithesis and rhyme in the words, the author's ability is limited,

Let's just pretend it's very explicit, QAQ~

It is to compare men and women to wind and rain, the weather is smooth, from obedience to competition, the wind and rain will only become more and more violent, causing disasters.

In fact, it can also reflect that the lyricist is afraid that women will stand up and surpass men. They were originally an honest and vulnerable group, but suddenly a superior person came to help.
