Wearing a book, hooking him up

Chapter 175 Women Should Be Self-reliant

After more than half an hour, Jun Zechen held her gently and walked to the room steadily.

Miaoxia had prepared everything early inside, and a large bucket of hot water was steaming.

When His Majesty was with his master, he never liked them to serve him. After Miaoxia prepared the water, she quietly left and asked Miaoyue to bring the carefully prepared meal into the house.

Jun Zechen put the person into the bathtub, then stepped in swiftly and held her in his arms.

The soft body seemed to have endless attraction, making him unable to let go.

"Get it out, I don't want to get pregnant."

Su Jingyao leaned lazily against him and spoke weakly, with a hint of fatigue in her voice.

Su Jingyao no longer takes contraceptives regularly, and usually only allows him to have sex during the safe period.

Jun Zechen was already very familiar with serving her, and he responded with a doting, "Yes."

If she doesn't want to give birth, she won't. After all, he is the one who is worried when giving birth, and she feels uncomfortable during pregnancy, and he feels uncomfortable too.

After the two finished washing, Su Jingyao felt her legs go weak and she casually put on a thin gauze skirt.

Jun Zechen also casually put on a robe with the collar wide open, revealing his strong chest.

He followed her, and when he saw her walking unsteadily, he immediately picked her up without hesitation.

Outside, Miaoyue had already placed the prepared meals on the table. She was used to it and left some space for her master and His Majesty to be alone.

Jun Zechen held her and sat down, and couldn't help but chuckled, "Are you that tired?"

Su Jingyao leaned softly on him. It was not because she was tired, but the extreme pleasure made her body very exhausted. Looking at the food at this moment, she could not even muster an appetite.

Seeing this, Jun Zechen ate by himself, but from time to time he would pick up her favorite meal and ask her, "Do you want to eat this?"

Su Jingyao would occasionally take a sip of the food he fed her, and then take advantage of the warm moment between the two of them to slowly unfold her thoughts.

"My husband punished the Li family today. It is true that he punished the tyrant of Yicheng. But what I saw when I went out today was the hardship and difficulty of many women."

Her expression was serious and solemn, and her eyes were filled with worry.

"Although the imperial court has never issued an order to stop women from engaging in business, both in the legal provisions and in the current public sentiment, women are treated with great hostility."

"It is precisely because of this that it is so difficult for the female shopkeepers of Mingxiang Yige to run the teahouse."

"What do you think about this, my husband?"

She said slowly, looking at Jun Zechen, expecting his response.

Jun Zechen picked up some food while listening to her attentively. His handsome brows were slightly furrowed, and he was thinking deeply about what she said.

He has never looked down on women. In his mind, women's abilities and wisdom are no less than men's. They are just subject to many unreasonable restrictions and prejudices, making it difficult for them to fully display their talents.

Even if he was the emperor of a country, it would not be easy to completely change these ideas.

After all, the power of this era is tilted towards men. People in high positions and powerful positions only want to control others, and most men regard weak women as their vassals.

Jun Zechen had put a lot of effort into promoting women's freedom to marry, and Su Jingyao had also written many articles related to women in the past few years. Those articles circulated in the market, just for her to show women all over the world, as a queen, that they could make their own choices for the rest of their lives.

After several years of subtle influence, I finally achieved some success.

"What Yaoyao said makes a lot of sense."

"If a country attempts to highlight the greatness of men by oppressing women, it will sooner or later decline. The power of women should not be underestimated. They can play an important role in national development."

"In the beginning, Yaoyao secured the freedom to marry for women all over the world, but this was just the beginning. In order to make women more confident in their marriage choices and to truly implement the freedom to marry, women's self-reliance is the fundamental thing."

“Only when women themselves become stronger can they have more say and autonomy in the world.”

Jun Zechen nodded slightly, his eyes filled with admiration and recognition.

After Su Jingyao heard this, her beautiful eyes were filled with surprise. Her slightly opened lips and lightly furrowed brows all showed her inner astonishment.

She originally thought that Jun Zechen would hesitate, or even refuse directly. After all, as the emperor, Jun Zechen has always had a strong desire for control.

In such an era where imperial power is supreme, breaking the blockade of the aristocratic families and reorganizing the inherent cognition of men in the world does not seem to be a beneficial move for him.

"Does my husband really want to improve the status of women, or is it because of me?"

Su Jingyao opened her red lips slightly, with a hint of doubt and inquiry in her eyes.

"Yaoyao, do you have a deep misunderstanding of me? Why do you think I have never wanted to improve the status of women?"

Jun Zechen raised his eyebrows slightly, and a hint of helplessness flashed in his deep eyes.

As an emperor, Jun Zechen has been well-read since childhood and has read countless books.

However, the books that are always new to read are history books and military books.

The history books he read not only covered the rise and fall of the current dynasty, but also included precious records handed down from previous dynasties.

The Qin Dynasty, which truly achieved great unification, clearly recorded its unique concept of marriage in the "Hui Ji Inscription".

For example, there is a clear boundary between men and women, and only husband and wife can live in the same room; if a married man goes out to have affairs with other women, his wife can be acquitted if she kills him; if a wife elos again, her children will not recognize her as their mother.

Between husband and wife, whoever makes a mistake should be punished.

When Jun Zechen read the history of the Qin Dynasty as a child, he was full of doubts.

Why were women in the Qin Dynasty so free and easy in their marriages?

I continued reading many historical books and found out that women in the Qin Dynasty were not only able to engage in business, but also to get involved in political affairs.

If we dig deeper into the root of this problem, we will find that it is because the Qin Dynasty believed in Legalism and always emphasized fairness and justice.

In the subsequent Han Dynasty, Confucianism was respected, and Confucian ethics gradually imposed more restrictions and constraints on women's behavior and the roles they played in the world.

Because of this, the status of women has become increasingly low.

Up to the present dynasty, these concepts have long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and even women themselves have tacitly accepted the status quo of being inferior to men.

To break this situation is not something that can be achieved overnight. It requires years of ideological and cultural changes.

Although Jun Zechen, as an emperor, cannot speak directly for women, his queen can.

Confucianism can consolidate imperial power, and Jun Zechen does not intend to abandon it. However, what's wrong with discarding some of the dross in Confucianism?

Only continuous innovation can promote the progress and development of the entire country.

Jun Zechen picked up a piece of chicken from the soup and fed it to her, his eyes full of tenderness.

Su Jingyao opened her cherry-like mouth slightly, bit the chicken, and chewed it in small bites.

After swallowing it, she continued, "I am prejudiced against my husband. Since my husband agrees with my idea, I want to support several shopkeepers of Mingxiang Yi Pavilion. My husband can also ask the Secretariat to propose the improvement of relevant laws."

There was expectation in her eyes, bright and determined.

"Well, how is Yaoyao going to help Mingxiang Yige?"

Jun Zechen nodded slightly and looked at her with interest.

"Since my husband's identity has been revealed today, I can naturally stand in front of all the women in the world as the queen and support them."

"Tomorrow I will send Miaoxia to contact several shopkeepers, and in a few days I will invite the ladies of Yicheng's noble families and local scholars and writers to come in the name of the queen."

"This way, everyone can see for themselves how good a woman is at running a teahouse, and other businesses will no longer belittle Mingxiang Yige by using the fact that a woman runs a teahouse."

If a woman's business was recognized and supported by the Queen, naturally no one would dare to continue to attack the teahouse using the woman's identity.

After all, who dares to disrespect the imperial power?

"Yaoyao is thoughtful, that's good."

Jun Zechen raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a gratified smile, his eyes full of approval.

Perhaps this is the significance of the Southern Tour. Afterwards they will visit more cities and do more things.

The two smiled at each other, Su Jingyao's mouth corners raised, her eyes moved, and she picked up a crystal clear grape from the table coquettishly and stretched it towards Jun Zechen mischievously.

Jun Zechen smiled and opened his mouth to enjoy it, but he didn't expect Su Jingyao to smile slyly, feed the grapes into his mouth, and give him a deliberately provocative look.

Jun Zechen's eyes darkened instantly, and without hesitation he reached out his hand to hold her head, and with his other hand he pinched her pink little face and kissed her fiercely.

His movements were forceful and urgent, like a fierce general marching straight in, determined to take the grapes back.

But after a fierce fight, the grapes were only squeezed into juice.

Grape juice slowly flowed out from the corners of her mouth.

Su Jingyao's eyes were a little blurry and her cheeks were flushed because of Jun Zechen's passionate kiss. At this moment, she looked like a captivating little elf, charming and attractive.

After the kiss, Jun Zechen panted slightly and asked righteously: "Feed another one."

His eyes were fixed on Su Jingyao with an overbearing gaze that brooked no rejection.

Su Jingyao giggled when she heard that, picked up another grape and pretended to feed it to him. She looked at him provocatively, but in the end she fed the grape into her own mouth and bit it gently with her teeth, refusing to give it to him.

Seeing that Jun Zechen's face looked worse and worse, Su Jingyao put the grape she was biting into his mouth.

The two then kissed deeply and passionately once again, as if everything around them had ceased to exist and only the passion for each other remained.
