The queen was shocked by Lin Can's remarks. She knew that people had many complaints about the laws related to women that she had revised.
But she never imagined that the person who stabbed her in front of her without any hesitation was her half-sister who was related to her by blood.
"You're talking nonsense," Qiqige took a step towards Lin Can, her beautiful phoenix eyes filled with anger, "You are our fourth sister, how could you hurt our second sister like this?"
Lin Can was startled by Qiqige's yelling. She tilted her head and secretly glanced at the queen's face. Seeing that she was indeed in a bad mood, she was about to say something but was interrupted by Qiqige.
"Do you know how many women were saved by the Queen's revised laws?"
Let’s not talk about the distant past, let’s just talk about Rong Wuniang. If it weren’t for the support of the laws revised by the Queen, how could she have been able to build a workshop and raise her children by her own labor.
Qiqige gently stroked her belly. "Everyone is subject to misfortunes at any time. Who can guarantee that a woman will be protected throughout her life? If one day the father is gone, the husband is gone, how can a widow raise her children?"
"If the previous laws are still used," Qiqige took a deep breath, "women can only be at the mercy of their husband's clan. It's a small matter to have their family property and livelihood taken away, but even worse, they are sold by their husband's clan, and even their children's lives cannot be saved. How can this be justified in this world?"
Lin Can stood up and said, "That's other people's business. With the Lin family around, it's impossible for you to have such a day."
“Naive,” Qiqige glared at Lin Can coldly, “I’ve said before, misfortunes can happen at any time. A country can be plunged into war, let alone you and me.”
"You are making up groundless arguments," Lin Can pointed at Qiqige without any hesitation, "In this world, men are respected. How can a woman challenge the authority of men? Do you know what outsiders say about my second sister? They say she is a hen that crows at dawn and that she is trying to overthrow the country. Isn't this bringing disaster to the Lin family? Don't implicate me when the time comes."
"Who told you that?" the queen held Qiqige's arm and asked her to sit next to Qianqian. Qianqian immediately held her hand to comfort her.
Lin Can was stunned by the Queen's questions. These were the words her mother-in-law and husband often said when she was at home, but now she spoke out loud in front of her second sister.
She blushed and lowered her head. The queen took a deep breath and said, "My fourth sister was also a dazzling girl in the past."
"She used to roll up her sleeves and fight with people when her sisters were laughed at, and she would also stand up for those who were treated unfairly."
"But now," the Queen looked at Lin Can in disappointment, "the person who said such heartbreaking words is really my fourth sister? How is it possible?"
After a pause, the queen took Lin Can's hand and looked her in the eyes. "I thought you would be unhappy about Xu Dingcheng taking concubines one after another over the years, but I never thought that you would accept it happily and even take the initiative to buy someone for him. Can'er, do you still remember what you really look like?"
"what?"
Lin Can was stunned for a while, then pulled his hand out of the Queen's hand, "Second sister, what are you talking about? I, I don't understand."
[Alas,] Xiao Qianqian sighed, [Tongzi, tell me honestly what kind of person is Xu Dingcheng?]
[Uh,] The system was helpless, [Isn't that just a hypocrite who eats for free? ]
[Back then, he tried every means to seduce Lin Can. After they got married, he always treated Lin Can in a weird way, saying that she was not disciplined and did not respect herself before marriage. He used this to control Lin Can.]
[Plus, Xu Dingcheng's mother sang the same tune with him, making Lin Can willing to work as a slave for the Xu family.]
[Haha,] Xiao Qianqian sneered, [That Xu Dingcheng is not a good guy.]
Qiqige, whose cheeks were flushed with anger, gave Lin Can a sympathetic look after hearing these words.
As expected, not every husband in the world is like her husband.
Seeing Lin Can like this, the Queen was in no mood to reminisce with her. She waved her hand and said, "Lin Can, remember, Qiqige is your third sister-in-law, your real third sister-in-law. I am also tired today, you should go back first."
I?
Lin Can's eyes flashed, and he looked at Qiqige viciously, then left Fengqi Palace with a heart full of resentment and resentment.
The queen looked at her back and sighed deeply, then turned around and smiled apologetically at Qiqige, "You are pregnant now, so don't get angry with her. It's not worth it."
"No way," Qiqige said seriously, "She is confused, and I won't get angry with a confused person."
"Yes, that's the right thing to think about." The Queen walked to the couch and sat down, picked up Xiao Qianqian, "Someone, go and investigate Xu Dingcheng again."
"Yes."
Qiqige looked at the secret guard who was leaving, a little confused, "Second sister, why are you investigating him? Are you going to deal with him?"
The queen smiled. "Why should I punish him? Doesn't he want to stay in the capital? Then I will help him. Doesn't he have any objections to the laws on women that I have revised? Then I will give him a supervisory position and let him be in charge of the implementation of the new laws in various places."
[Wow,] Xiao Qianqian's eyes lit up, [This is a good idea, it will make Xu Dingcheng suffer in silence.]
[Yeah, it’s indeed appropriate. ]
The system also agreed, [However, that Lin Can is really confused. In order to make her husband happy, she has been using her dowry to subsidize the Xu family over the years. Her dowry is really running out. ]
[Ah, haha, so love-brain is a disease, whoever gets it will be unlucky. ]
Seven days later, a six-year-old girl was safely brought to the queen by secret guards.
The queen looked at the skinny and timid little girl in front of her, and her heart ached. She smiled and asked, "What's your name?"
Dahua stared at the tip of her shoes with her clear eyes, and held the hem of her new clothes tightly with her hands. She stammered for a long time before she replied in a low voice, "Da, Dahua, my name is Dahua."
The sound was like a cat's meow, which made the queen feel even more distressed.
She sighed slightly and said in a gentle tone, "Dahua, you were originally my concubine's child, but you were switched at birth. Your last name should be Xu. Can I take you to meet my parents in a few days?"
Dahua raised her head slightly, glanced at the queen quickly, and nodded slightly.
The queen sighed quietly, but Dahua suddenly felt someone pulling at her clothes, so she tilted her head to look.
She saw a chubby baby grinning at her. This baby was so beautiful. How could it be so white and have such bright eyes?
[Is this my cousin? Woohoo, how much suffering has she endured? She is so thin, no no, I have to make her plump and white.]
"Uh, ah,"
Dahua was startled by the sudden sound. She took a step back and fell to the ground.
Xiao Qianqian was still holding the hem of her flowery dress, and was about to fall down because of her sudden movement.
"Ah, be careful," Dahua rushed forward quickly and caught the baby who was about to fall.
"Hehehe," Xiao Qianqian was amused by this pounce.
[Hahaha, this is exciting. It feels like flying. I want to fall again.]
Big flower...
