Mind reading, the emperor saw my fist hard

Emperor Xuan immediately glanced towards Xu Jinyu covertly.

The officials also looked here secretly. Is there anything else in Liangzhou that has not been exposed?

Xu Jinyu's mouth opened wide, and it was obvious that he had seen something shocking.

[What kind of husband is this? If it weren't for this sister's mediation, she wouldn't have known that her husband, the nerd, was sold out by the chief clerk of Huangyun County. Privately, all the affairs of Huangyun County are handled by this sister.]

[It was this sister who secretly investigated the situation in Liangzhou. Her nerdy husband had long been frightened by the situation in Liangzhou and had closed the door to visitors, wishing he could resign and go home.]

[The chief clerk of Huangyun County also felt that this sister was a woman and easier to control than a man, so he let Liu Yunniang help her husband handle county affairs.]

[With this woman's identity, the chief clerk and the county lieutenant of Huangyun County were really deceived, allowing Liu Yunniang to seize the opportunity to escape from Liangzhou and file a complaint with the emperor in Beijing.]

Emperor Xuan and all the officials looked at Liu Yunniang in shock.

This woman was not delivering a message for her husband. She was trying to investigate the situation in Liangzhou on her own and ran to the capital from Liangzhou on her own.

Her methods and brains are better than those of most men.

When did women become so powerful?

Liu Yunniang felt uncomfortable with these gazes and moved her body.

What happened? Why were everyone looking at her with such surprised eyes?

[Ah! It would be great if Daqian allowed women to be officials. Under her governance, the situation in Huangyun County where Liu Yunniang is located is much better than in other counties.]

[Liu Yunniang is also very familiar with the situation in Liangzhou. After the central army of the Beijing camp has cleared out the pests in Liangzhou, it seems better to let Liu Yunniang govern Liangzhou than anyone else.]

Emperor Xuan's eyelids twitched.

It’s not impossible for a woman to be an official. There is already Xu Jinyu, so it doesn’t matter if there is one more.

In addition, the situation in Liangzhou is urgent, so it would be better to send Liu Yunniang than to send an official who does not understand the situation.

Seeing the expression on Emperor Xuan’s face, people who were familiar with him knew that he was moved.

However, the loophole of allowing women to hold official positions cannot be opened. If this loophole is opened, who among the women in the world would be willing to raise children and take care of household chores in the backyard?

A female general at the founding of Daqian was a role model for many women in Daqian.

An imperial censor from the Censorate almost rolled out of the crowd and shouted to Emperor Xuan with a sad look on his face: "Your Majesty, you can't..."

Without waiting for the censor to stop him, Emperor Xuan gave a decisive order.

"Liu Yunniang received the order."

"A civilian woman accepts the order."

Liu Yunniang knelt down dizzy, her mind in turmoil. Why would a woman like her accept an imperial decree? Could it be that he was going to punish her husband?

The next moment, Emperor Xuan's words made Liu Yunniang's eyes burst into bright light.

"I, Liu Yunniang, am a brave and intelligent woman who has risked her life for you. Your courage is commendable. I hereby appoint you as the magistrate of Huangyun County and temporarily assume the post of governor of Liangzhou. You will work with the central army to comfort the people of Liangzhou. Once Liangzhou is in order, I will reward you based on your merits."

After announcing the imperial edict, Emperor Xuan looked at Liu Yunniang with burning eyes.

"Do you dare to accept the order?"

Liu Yunniang's eyes were filled with hope and surprise, and she was emitting incredible excitement. Without thinking too much, she asked His Majesty directly,

"Your Majesty is willing to allow women to serve as officials."

"Why not? You're not the first one."

Emperor Xuan pointed at Xu Jinyu as he spoke.

Seeing Emperor Xuan pointing at him, Xu Jinyu waved happily at Liu Yunniang.

Liu Yunniang looked back at Xu Jinyu. That might be the Xu Jinyu, the head of the Ministry of Revenue, as known by the people in the capital.

The first female official in Daqian.

Liu Yunniang suddenly remembered what her father had taught her, and she still kept it in her heart after all these years.

The father said: "Yun'er, I know you are smart and strong, but the world is unfair to women, and I don't have the power to change it."

"I can only advise you not to be too competitive. This is the world..."

At that time, my father's eyes were full of sadness and helpless frustration.

So in the end, her father chose a nerd who only knew how to read and had a gentle temper as her husband, so as to avoid two people with strong tempers meeting each other and both getting hurt.

But today, Liu Yunniang wanted to tell her father that her daughter had encountered another possibility.

Liu Yunniang straightened her shoulders, bowed her hands and said respectfully: "I accept your order."

This time she did not perform the female's squatting gesture, but the male's bowing gesture.

[The second one! The second lady-in-waiting! The third lady-in-waiting won't be far behind.]

[Emperor Xuan was really magnanimous. He employed people in a non-standard way. That was great. This would make the competition more competitive and allow those men to feel superior to women by relying on the two taels of meat under their crotches.]

[Men can be officials, and women can certainly be officials. Anyone can be an official as long as they have the ability. ]

Who?

Who dares to say this about the emperor of a country?

Liu Yunniang was also startled when she suddenly heard a strange female voice.

Her Majesty just listened with a smile, looking very much enjoying it, and motioned for her to continue listening.

enjoy?

Liu Yunniang didn't understand. Were there few people in the court praising His Majesty? His Majesty enjoyed hearing such a compliment.

Emperor Xuan also noticed Liu Yunniang's surprised expression, and felt a little uncomfortable. However, Xu Jinyu had never said anything nice to him, and this was not the first time he had received a compliment, so he couldn't help but enjoy it.

Hearing that Emperor Xuan had directly issued an edict to appoint a woman as an official, there was an uproar in the Chrysanthemum Garden.

In addition to Lady Xu, His Majesty is actually willing to appoint other women as officials.

"Mom, I also want to be an official."

The girl's clear voice rang out.

Another gentle and loving voice sounded: "That requires you to have the ability!"

"So does that mean I can become an official as long as I have the ability?"

"Hahaha·····"

Her mother didn't dare to answer this question.

Such conversations were heard everywhere in the Chrysanthemum Garden. Liu Yunniang opened up a new world to the young girls who came to the Chrysanthemum Garden to attend the banquet.

Get a new possibility.

【Wuhu! Women’s rise starts today. 】

Xu Jinyu shouldn’t cheer too loudly in her heart.

Seeing this, the censor who had just come out said with a sad face: "Your Majesty, how can a woman be capable of handling the affairs of a continent?"

Without Emperor Xuan asking, Prime Minister An directly asked the censor,

"Of course not. Could you escape from Liangzhou, which was surrounded by the army? Could you investigate the situation in Liangzhou under the supervision of the chief clerk and the county lieutenant? Could you leave Liangzhou without the officials of Liangzhou noticing anything?"

The series of questions left the censor speechless. He racked his brains, trying to think of how he could escape under such circumstances.

But I couldn't figure it out after thinking for a long time, but I still insisted.

"Liu Yunniang is a woman, so those people were not on guard. If they were, it would be even more difficult for her to escape."

"But the fact is that a woman escaped, and you..."

Emperor Xuan glanced coldly at the censor, who had no talent at all and only a big mouth, and his words were full of nonsense. Daqian did not need such an official.

Moreover, civil unrest could break out in Liangzhou at any time, so Emperor Xuan didn't care about men or women.

As long as Liangzhou can be pacified, whoever does the best will be promoted.

Unable to find a reason to refute Emperor Xuan, the censor continued to show his stubbornness as a scholar, saying nothing else but:

"Your Majesty, no matter what, women cannot serve as officials."

Emperor Xuan really had no good way to deal with this stubborn censor. There had always been a precedent of punishing people for their words in Daqian.

[The reason why this censor refused to give in was actually...]

【Ha ha ha ha·······】

What is it?

Emperor Xuan and all the officials became curious.

The reason that could make Xu Jinyu laugh so loudly must be very interesting.
