Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 2115

The noble families closed their doors tightly and let the imperial city be engulfed in flames. This was the way the Liang family had lived for hundreds of years, and it was also the basis for them to survive through several dynasties.

Whether it was Emperor Heng being forced to abdicate or Emperor Heng regaining the throne not long ago, these aristocratic families all closed their doors and watched from the sidelines.

Naturally, some of them had daughters who were concubines of Emperor Yong, but when they saw Emperor Heng charging into the imperial city with an unstoppable force, they all became cowards.

The questioning of the Feather Emperor silenced all the officials.

After Emperor Yu came to the throne, he was able to maintain the dignity of the aristocratic families, but this was because he thought that the world had just been settled and it was not appropriate to start a war.

You still want to let the noble lady enter the palace? It's just a foolish dream.

This was the case for emperors of all dynasties. Even Emperor Mingde had no choice but to submit and use the harem as a link to control the previous dynasty.

But Emperor Yu was different. He held the military power in his hands, and had the support of the Northern Wing Cavalry behind him.

Back then, Xiao Yunde high-fived him and swore, "I will help you return to Liang and seize the throne, and you will promise me a hundred years of peace in the North Wing."

Now that the smoke of war has dissipated, the promise made back then has become the lifeline of both countries.

Beiyi dared to carry out reforms because it had Liang State as a shield; Emperor Yu was able to make decisions on his own because Beiyi had its backing.

Therefore, they can arbitrarily and forcefully abolish the harem.

Emperor Yu ordered the chief steward of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to present the thick account books of Emperor Yong's harem over the years for all officials to circulate.

All officials were shocked.

Does the harem actually cost such a huge amount of money?

The red mark on the account book was clearly visible: The annual expenditure of the six palaces can support 100,000 border troops. Those words faintly revealed the dissatisfaction of the Emperor Yu.

The Emperor Yu's eyes were cold, "The Ministry of Rites doesn't need to talk about 'yin and yang principles' all the time, and the ministers should stop talking about 'few offspring'. Now that the East Palace has been decided and the country is established, there is no need for more princes to come out and fight each other for everyone to see."

There was a dead silence in the hall.

Then Emperor Yu said, "Imperial decree," and the regulations of the six palaces were abolished from that day on.

When everyone thought that the Emperor Yu never cared about the noble ladies, he saw the emperor open a book on the imperial desk, "I know that the daughter of Jin Shangshu is proficient in water conservancy, the younger sister of Wei General is good at medicine, and the niece of Zhang Shilang is familiar with the art of war..."

The book was filled with records of the talents of the noble ladies from various families. "Rather than letting the noble ladies fight for favor in the harem, it is better for them to serve as officials in the court and share my worries."

This time all the officials were really shocked: A woman serving as an official in the court?

However, not everyone is so angry that he cannot control himself, such as the Minister of Personnel, Lord Jin.

He knew that his daughter was much better than those corrupt good-for-nothings in the Ministry of Industry. He always sighed with regret, thinking that if his daughter were a boy, she would have brought much honor to the family.

And it's strange that all the sons of the Jin family are mediocre, but all the daughters are outstanding.

Naturally, he also had the idea of sending his daughter into the palace. This was his consciousness as a subject.

But in comparison, if my daughter could become an official, that would be a better destination than entering the palace.

Lord Jin did not want his daughter to become an official, but wanted all the blueprints on his daughter's desk to become reality. He lifted his robe and knelt in the hall, shouting, "My emperor is wise!"

The Feather Emperor smiled faintly, "Starting today, the 'Record of Female Examinations' will be used as the standard, and women will be required to take the same examinations as all other officials to enter the civil service. If your daughter is truly talented, you may as well give it a try."

Lord Jin was delighted, "I obey your order."

One after another, ministers followed Lord Jin and agreed to allow female officials to enter the officialdom.

Even if less than half of the officials agreed, the effect that Emperor Yu wanted was achieved.
