The whole family of villains criticized her wildly, but the princess treated her with medical treatm

The Queen Mother's words were like a glass of water poured into a boiling pan of oil. All the officials in the court were in an uproar!

In ancient times, male supremacy was paramount. For these male courtiers from high-ranking families, women were just their accessories. Even if they were noble women, they had to obey their husbands and educate their children.They are not allowed to have a say, and they can only live a small life in the back house.

"Your Majesty, be careful! There has never been an ancestral system for women to serve as officials in the court in Yunhuang. The Minister of Household Affairs is a third-rank official. Since the founding of our country, there have been a total of 27 people holding this important position, all of whom are men!"

"Although the eldest princess is precious, she is still a woman. A woman without talent is a virtue. The Queen Mother should choose a good marriage for Her Royal Highness as soon as possible instead of letting her go to the Jinluan Palace to dictate political affairs!"

"Chen Lifan seconded the proposal! Women are short-sighted and their physiological limitations are destined to be emotional, and handling national affairs requires a high degree of rationality!"

"My minister agrees!"

……

Wow, 80.00% of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty knelt down. The Leave Party, the neutral faction, and even more than half of the Yan Party were all united as never before to collectively resist the Queen Mother Yan's edict to appoint the eldest princess as an official.

That is to say, the right prime minister Yan Xi and his son, the imperial minister Wu Wuji, the governor of Youzhou Cui Shining, and the minister of the Ministry of Industry Qin Zixiong are still standing there.

Yan Xi and his son are easy to understand. They are close relatives. The eldest princess also saved their family Mingyue's life and supports them unconditionally.

Lao Jijiu was a fan of the eldest princess and hung the princess's poem to encourage students to study on the lintel of the Imperial College.

Heng Yanbo Cui Shining, the governor of Youzhou, is the cousin-in-law of the eldest princess. He and his wife Yan Lan came to Beijing to celebrate the New Year. They had not had time to return to Youzhou. Qin Zixiong, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, understood better. What a good relationship Yan Yun had with the eldest princess. .

The opposition of the ministers was expected by Queen Mother Yan. She did not show any anger, but her eyebrows on the left moved slightly, and her voice sounded like bells and drums: "The Ai family is also a woman. According to what you said, the Ai family I should also grovel at the feet of men like you, not qualified to discuss world affairs."

This sentence alone was like a blow to the head, shaking the officials there.

Only then did they suddenly realize that the vicious words they had just used to scold women were not only scolding the eldest princess, but also the queen mother who controlled the imperial power of the court!

"My son Qingyuan is a member of the Tianhuang noble family and is the orthodox member of the Xie family. In terms of talent, all the officials could not solve the disaster, but she solved it; in terms of management, she used the method of central engraving to raise the salary owed in and outside the capital. She used some silver to fill the hole; when it comes to military supplies for the war in the north, she also raised funds at the Lantern Festival."

Every time Empress Dowager Yan said something, the faces of the ministers became more uneasy and ashamed.

"Many court officials and ministers of Wenyuan Neo-Confucianism, you can only refute and get angry, but no one can come up with a real solution to the problem! Your refutations are invalid refutations; your anger is incompetent rage! "

The officials' faces turned pale, and they knelt on the ground one by one. The cold and hard stone slabs of Jinluan Palace dug into their knees, and the chill penetrated into their bones.

Empress Dowager Yan talked about the eldest princess's political achievements, which was too grand and grand, and they were speechless.

Jing Yu Gong Lifan pursed his lips: "The Queen Mother's words are wrong. We have also proposed good solutions, but you and the Regent are arbitrary and refuse to adopt them. This war should not be fought at the moment. From the south Collecting 20 pieces of cotton cloth and sending it to Beiyu will save the people in the north from war..."

"I don't fully agree with Li Gong's words."

A voice came from the door of Jinluan Palace.

Mu Tingxue received the order, and her mother asked her to go to the palace to receive the official seal.She entered the palace from the Huangji Gate, passed through the royal road in front of the Jinluan Palace, and walked into the main hall under the gaze of hundreds of officials.

"Your Highness, the eldest princess, what do you think?" Jing Yugong frowned. He did not support the eldest princess becoming the Minister of Household Affairs. His wife was still the eldest princess. She would not stay at home to give birth to his children and manage the backyard for him. ?

"The reason why the queen mother and the regent did not adopt Li Gong's strategy was not arbitrariness, but pity for the people in the south, which is really a great kindness."

Mu Tingxue was not afraid at all, and met Li Gong's provocative gaze. "It's like digging out the flesh in your heart and patching up the sores in front of your eyes. Using the wealth of the people in the south to exchange for the short-term peace in the north, Li Gong's plan is really short-sighted." .”

Li Fan: "You——"

He had complained to the ministers before that women were born short-sighted and were not suitable for serving as officials, but he was immediately slapped in the face.

Mu Tingxue pressed her step by step: "May I ask Li Gong, who are you going to send to the south to collect cotton? If this princess remembers correctly, the largest cotton landowner in the three southern provinces is Li Jia, and the largest leader in the cotton textile industry is Li Gong. Uncle, 20% of the income you proposed to leave the Party goes to the landlords and cotton merchants, [-]% goes to the court, and [-]% goes to the people. If you levy [-] pieces of cotton cloth in the south like this, it is tantamount to driving the people of the south to death! "

Li Fan was anxious and angry. She didn't expect that her family's dirty business of plundering people's wealth would be brought out and exposed to the public. She couldn't stand it any longer.

The officials who left the party lowered their heads one after another and looked away.

The most shocking person in the Jinluan Palace was not Li Fan or Nangong Da Situ, but the young emperor Xie Xuanchen sitting on the dragon throne.

The imperial sister wants to join the court as an official?

As a woman, the imperial sister wants to participate in politics?

The mother has already established herself as a queen, is it possible that she still wants to create a princess?Who is this emperor?

Xie Xuanchen began to fear. For the first time, he felt a huge threat from this imperial sister whom he once deeply loved - the eldest princess was orthodox and more upright than him; the eldest princess was the Queen Mother's favorite, and he was a piece of trash she picked up. ; The eldest princess has a very high reputation among the people, but he is just a puppet with no political achievements and no reputation.

Xie Xuanchen was in a state of confusion. Before he could control the situation, the next successor had already appeared?

No!

He needs to calm down!

Facts have proved that Xie Xuanchen is an excellent politician. He was not as angry as other courtiers, nor did he say an unpleasant word.

in contrast.

He walked down from the dragon chair with a look of joy on his face, took the initiative to walk up to Mu Tingxue, grabbed her hand, his eyes bursting with energy: "I think Sister Huang is right. The battle in the north should be Fight, the corruption of the Lu family and his son should be eliminated, and the powerful officials and gentry who invaded and annexed the cotton fields in the south should be thoroughly investigated! The imperial sister is so smart, the position of Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs must be yours. I have the imperial sister, like a tiger with added wings, like a dragon. Water is really a blessing!”

Queen Mother Yan's eyebrows relaxed and she smiled.

Although the little emperor is a puppet, if it is beneficial to him, then it is an imperial edict.

Li Fan frowned, annoyed - what do you mean?Are you going to investigate him for leaving home and annexing the land of cotton farmers?Damn the eldest princess, it’s all her fault!
