Looking at Tai'an from the full moon
Chapter 19 Wei Qing, Yun Chen, Liu Li
Liuli had not expected that Prince Yun would invite Prince Qing as well. Although she had no opinion on these princes, she still had to put on a show in front of outsiders. For example, now, she had to sit up straight.
Similarly, Prince Qing did not expect that his good sixth brother would actually invite a prostitute. He was not a person who flattered the powerful and looked down on the weak, but it would not sound good if the two brothers got together and brought a prostitute with them.
Both of them were embarrassed and didn't know what to say.
Xiao Zuochen didn't expect that both of them were so reserved, so he had no choice but to speak first.
"Brother, the 'pension' I mentioned last time was proposed by Miss Liuli."
Prince Qing was stunned. His sixth brother told him that it was a woman who proposed the idea. He was already shocked at that time, but he didn't expect that she was a beautiful woman.
Liuli nodded slightly, acknowledging what King Yun said.
"This... I really didn't expect it. When my sixth brother told me about the 'pension', I felt that the person who could come up with such a livelihood plan must be extraordinary. I didn't expect it to be you, young lady!"
Liuli smiled slightly.
"Your Highness Prince Qing, thank you for your praise. Liuli just thinks that this matter is also beneficial to the country and to people like us who will be helpless in the future."
This one sentence aroused King Qing's curiosity.
"Why are you helpless? With this plan, the young lady has become familiar with me and my sixth brother. If you need help in the future, just ask."
Liuli shook her head after hearing this.
"Your Highness Prince Qing, your idea is unrealistic. As you said, if Liuli is in trouble in the future, I believe you will not sit idly by. But if Liuli really wants to live a good life day by day, she still has to rely on herself. You can't ask you for money every day in the future, right?"
"Can..."
His Royal Highness Prince Qing was about to open his mouth to refute, but Liuli continued.
"Your Highness, if you don't think that women are dependent on men, there is nothing that they can't survive?"
"How could that be? I didn't think so!"
"But the reason why the prince has a puzzled expression is because you think so. This is also because of what you see because of the class you live in. For example, a young lady from an official family was raised by her father who was an official from birth. After she got married, her husband would also give her the household expenses. If she didn't make a living, she would have her parents' help. She would never be treated unfairly.
But Your Majesty, do you know how many ordinary women there are in this world? Take the maid in your palace for example. She is working for you now and receives a monthly salary. When she is old and no longer works, Your Majesty will give her a lot of money to support her in her old age. But she will no longer receive a monthly salary. If the money is used up by her family, she will have no value and will be abandoned.
For example, the family selling wontons on the roadside, the husband and wife work together to earn money, and they seem to be happy, because the woman earns money through her own physical labor. If she does not set up the stall with her husband, but cleans and washes clothes at home alone, she will probably be divorced by the man.
If these women who currently have a decent livelihood are still like this in the future, how will people like us who work in brothels live in the future? Your Majesty, do you know how many of these women in brothels were deceived into coming here, or sold here by their families?
But this cruelty is the reality.”
Prince Qing was completely shocked. Before, he ignored the affairs of the court and received the monthly allowance from the prince, thinking that he could live a peaceful life like this. He had never experienced any great suffering, nor had he experienced other different lives, so he really couldn't imagine the suffering of others.
Xiao Zuochen also shut up at this time. He had seen people displaced by disasters and families destroyed by war, but he had never thought about those ordinary women.
"Of course, the 'pension' is not just for women. It can be a guarantee for everyone. I just hope that through it, more women can be protected."
After Liuli finished speaking, she tried her best to control herself and took a few deep breaths to calm herself down. What she said just now was a little exciting.
"There is such inequality in the world!"
"Countless."
At this time, King Qing suddenly stood up and bowed to Liuli.
"Miss Liuli, please accept my greeting!"
Liuli was startled and at first thought that Prince Qing suddenly stood up and was going to beat her!
After Prince Qing finished his ceremony, he looked at Xiao Zuochen again.
"I wanted to refuse what Sixth Brother told me last time. I felt that no one was more suitable for that position than Sixth Brother. But after listening to what Miss Liuli said today, I actually wanted to change everything."
Now Xiao Zuochen also stood up.
"If you really have this idea, I will lend you a helping hand. Don't forget, you are the real eldest son!"
Liuli saw that both of them stood up, and it seemed inappropriate for her to sit still, so she stood up as well.
Xiao Zuochen turned his head to look at Liuli who had also stood up, and raised the corner of his mouth.
"Brother, you not only have me, but also Liuli, a strategist with outstanding ideas. The road ahead will be smooth sailing!"
"Then let me lend you some good words!"
"So you guys are going to... compete for that position?"
Liuli seemed to understand what they were saying, but she wasn't quite sure.
"Are you scared?"
Xiao Zuochen looked at her provocatively.
What a joke! How could she be afraid? She was originally a dead soul from another world, the worst that could happen was that she would die again!
"Liuli, don't be afraid. Since you want to gain a foothold in Tai'an City, why not accompany the two princes to have a big game!"
"it is good!"
For Liuli, although she was not clear about the current party situation in the royal family, she knew that winning the throne would definitely not be an easy task after watching countless palace fighting dramas.
For Xiao Zuochen, it was not that difficult for him to be the emperor. His father also wanted to pass the throne to him, but he did not want it. Although the third prince was a little stupid, the queen had always paved the way for him, and the queen was the most difficult person to deal with. Xiaohonglou was just a small force she had in the harem to consolidate her position, but behind her, in addition to her brother, General Bai, there seemed to be a special and powerful force.
For Prince Qing, being an emperor is very difficult. Although the emperor feels guilty about him, he has never thought of letting him be the emperor. This son usually does not care about political affairs, which is exactly what the emperor wants. In addition, Prince Qing's mother's family has no power, and although his wife is the daughter of the imperial tutor, the imperial tutor is also aloof from the world. His real helpers now are only Prince Yun and Liuli, whom he met today.
"Uncle Mo! Serve the food~"
Xiao Zuochen asked Uncle Mo to start serving the dishes. Speaking of which, it was also the first time for Prince Qing to come to Prince Yun's Mansion.
"I usually eat a light diet, so today I specially added two meat dishes. Please don't dislike them~"
"Sixth brother has always been weak, so light food is good for him. Your sister-in-law and I also tend to eat light food."
"Both princes can eat it, so why can't Liuli eat it~"
The three of them smiled at each other, then picked up their chopsticks and raised their wine glasses.
"Liuli, don't call us Prince from now on. My name is Xiao Zuoqing, and my sixth brother's name is Xiao Zuochen."
"But, if I call the two princes by their names, it might not be a good idea~"
Xiao Zuoqing slapped his forehead.
"Yes, if someone with ulterior motives heard it, it would probably cause trouble."
"I do have another name, Yun Chen, you can call me by that name."
"Yun Chen? You took Concubine Yun's surname. This is a good idea. Use your mother's surname to give yourself another name. Then you can call me Wei Qing~"
"Okay~ Wei Qing, Yun Chen."
Liuli raised the glass, toasted them, and drank it all in one gulp.
