Quick Wear: Salted Fish anchor always eats melons on the scene

Qi Shaoyuan was full of vigor and ambition, and had made remarkable achievements one after another. Some people in the court had long regarded him as a thorn in their side.

Now that this situation has occurred, she has immediately become the target of attack and destruction.

On the day Qi Shaoyuan returned to the capital, the new emperor not only allowed her to attend court, but also asked her directly in front of all the civil and military officials: "Does Qi Qing's achievements in flood control have anything to do with whether she is a man or a woman?"

This was obvious; anyone could tell the new emperor was trying to protect Qi Shaoyuan. Many people gave up their protests, but some conservative and stubborn officials refused to respond, insisting instead on the fact that women were forbidden from taking the imperial examinations, let alone serving as officials.

"Your Majesty, this is the ancestral law... She has committed the crime of deceiving the emperor!"

"Ancestral rule..." The new emperor repeated the word, but suddenly laughed, and swept his eyes over everyone present, as if carrying a thousand pounds of pressure.

He has always been gentle, which makes many people forget that he is the son of the previous emperor.

"If everything could not go against the ancestral rules, then the one sitting here today would not be me, nor the late emperor."

The new emperor, who usually seemed the most gentle and kind, made the most shocking remarks. Even the most stubborn old ministers were frightened by him and opened their eyes wide.

Everyone knows that dynasties have changed in history, and as one generation overthrows the next, the so-called ancestral system has also been changing.

In the matter of Qi Shaoyuan, the new emperor showed astonishing strength.

There was no need for any evidence to prove it. The new emperor didn't even bother about whether Qi Shaoyuan was a man or a woman. He just stated his position firmly.

Many people only realized later that the new emperor had probably known Qi Shaoyuan's secret for a long time. Some people also thought about the scenes in Jiangnan when the new emperor ascended the throne that morning.

Afterwards, Qi Shaoyuan personally met the new emperor and kowtowed to him to express his gratitude.

Shi Li was standing outside the hall and heard the conversation between the two clearly.

"Your Majesty, I thank you for your protection. I will repay you in the future!" Qi Shaoyuan also thought that it would not be easy for him to get out this time, but he did not expect that the new emperor would be so helpful.

The new emperor just looked at her steadily.

After a long time, he laughed.

"Yes, I can't let me regret my decision. Compared to that... I would rather you help me paint a more prosperous picture of the world."

The new emperor didn't say what he was talking about, but Qi Shaoyuan understood. She turned her head away without responding, but simply thanked the new emperor again.

Just at this time Qu Huaian hurried over. The new emperor saw her anxious look, then looked at Qi Shaoyuan, and suddenly realized.

"Okay, okay, you already knew that."

But he didn't feel unhappy, he just shook his head and chuckled helplessly.

"Your Majesty, women don't necessarily lose to men." Qu Huaian still looked serious and rigid, but his words were still shocking in this era.

Perhaps it was from this moment, or perhaps it was from what he felt from the people closest to him, that the new emperor truly realized something different.

After that, he and Qu Huaian spent a full five years planning to establish the first girls' school in the capital. Qu Huaian was busy with trivial matters, so many things were handed over to Shi Li to implement and supervise.

Shi Li also has the same passion and strives to get things done perfectly.

A long time later, she and the new emperor were alone in the Yangxin Palace, with no one else around.

The new emperor suddenly asked, "Are you the same as them?"

Shi Li was stunned for a few seconds before she realized what the new emperor meant, and immediately cold sweat soaked through her clothes on the back.

But the new emperor seemed to have just asked casually and never mentioned it again.

Later, Qu Huaian and Qi Shaoyuan both became famous people in history. Although Shi Li did not leave his name in the history books, he lived a very satisfying life.

She passed away on a morning when the crabapple blossoms were in full bloom, without any illness or pain, with a hint of a smile on her lips.

What was unknown was that the next day a young man with a cinnabar mole at the corner of his eye came to the door and was stunned when he heard the news of the death.

"I'm so late..."

He hadn't quite gotten the hang of the system yet, and he'd missed her.
