The princess is so powerful that the fish pond is full of people

The morning light poured down, and the golden glow of autumn covered the glazed golden roof of the Hall of Supreme Harmony. The sound of bells and chimes stopped, and the morning court was over. Liang Chongyue walked out of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, her bright yellow clothes fluttering in the wind, and the golden threads on the embroidery were dazzling.

The several civil officials who had spoken out to stop the protest in the main hall were still restless after the court session and started arguing on the palace road before leaving the palace.

Liang Chongyue stood on the highest step of the white jade steps, looking at everything in front of her indifferently. She didn't care about the words of these dying people. Just like just now in the hall, her scumbag father only gave them the opportunity to finish speaking, and then asked Qi Deyuan to announce the withdrawal of the court.

However, she had her own ideas about this imperial examination. She could be the first crown princess in history, so why did the top scholar have to be a man?

Looking at the golden glazed tiles not far away, Liang Chongyue fell into a brief period of contemplation and weighing.

Then he turned around with a determined look, walked through the officials who had just left the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and headed towards the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

As soon as she entered the Yangxin Palace, before she could go forward to pay her respects, her scumbag father stood up and gave up his seat in front of the desk, waiting for her to go over and review the memorials.

"My son, I would like to send my regards to my father."

"Get up, your mother specifically instructed last night that you stay here today for lunch and to try on your wedding dress."

Not to mention her scumbag father, her mother was the one who made all the decisions about her marriage. It was her first wedding, and she almost forgot about trying on wedding dresses.

Liang Chongyue responded. Seeing his scumbag father change out of his court robes and about to leave, Liang Chongyue was silent for a moment, then said:

"Father, I have some thoughts about this imperial examination."

Chongyue's voice sounded behind him. Liang Zhan didn't even turn his head, and walked out without stopping:

"Since I have handed this matter over to you, I will not interfere. You must learn to make your own decisions if there is anything you want to do."

Upon hearing this, Liang Chongyue watched his scumbag father leave the Yangxin Palace. However, Qi Deyuan did not leave with his scumbag father. Instead, he took out the empty imperial edict that he had prepared long ago and handed it to Liang Chongyue with both hands.

"Your Highness, this is what His Majesty ordered me to give you."

Liang Chongyue's gaze shifted to the imperial edict that had not yet been unfolded in front of her. For a moment, she couldn't guess what her scumbag father was thinking, but the opportunity was right in front of her, so how could she not seize it?

Liang Chongyue reached out to take the imperial edict that Qi Deyuan handed to him, walked to the desk with the edict, spread it out, and pressed down a corner with a paperweight. Seeing this, Qi Deyuan hurried to grind ink for His Highness.

Liang Chongyue picked up the pen, and an idea already appeared in her mind. She had thought about this matter several times. Although the time was not yet fully ripe, it was better to do it as soon as possible.

Marquis Qi Deyuan was concentrating on grinding ink. After a while, he saw that the prince had already written the imperial edict, rolled it up and handed it to him personally.

Qi Deyuan immediately bowed and took it with both hands.

"My people are not here. Please trouble Eunuch Qi to go there."

After all, the imperial examination for women was the first of its kind in history. The relevant imperial edict had to be written and sent to the Ministry of Rites. The people in the Ministry of Rites would adjust the imperial examination system and make overall arrangements and formulate specific rules for the imperial examination for women.

This time, the imperial examination suddenly lifted the restrictions on women, and many details such as the arrangement of sessions and the setting up of examination rooms had to be carefully considered. It was no joke. With this calculation, time was running out and there were only a few months left.

At the same time, a copy of the imperial edicts related to previous imperial examinations must be sent to the Hanlin Academy, and the content records must be retained in the archives.

Needless to say, if the imperial edict passed the test of the scumbag father, this first imperial edict announcing to the world that women could also participate in the imperial examinations must be preserved as an important record.

Although Qi Deyuan had been waiting beside His Highness, he had not seen a single word of the imperial edict. Upon hearing His Highness's words, he immediately replied with a smile:

"Your Highness is very polite. It is a blessing for me to be able to work for you."

Liang Chongyue sat on her scumbag father's dragon throne and watched Qi Deyuan leave. She was not sure whether this imperial edict could really pass her scumbag father's test.

Even if she could pass, time was tight. When she was young, because she loved reading, she opened girls' schools in various capitals, attracting wealthy families to follow her example.

But women of this era did not consider the imperial examination as a way out. She did not have high expectations for her first imperial examination, but she believed that in the near future, women would be able to occupy half of the court.

The imperial examination could also be a way out for women, and girls in trouble could get out of it on their own.

Although he didn't hold high expectations, Liang Chongyue still notified the system to keep an eye on the imperial edict, wanting to see his scumbag father's attitude after reading it.

After hearing the system's response, Liang Chongyue began to put the matter aside and review the memorials.

After Qi Deyuan left the Yangxin Palace, he turned around and walked towards the harem. When he arrived at the Yiku Palace, he saw His Majesty playing chess with the Empress. Qi Deyuan handed over the imperial edict. Without saying much, Liang Zhan already understood that this was just written by Chongyue.

Liang Zhan put down the white piece in his hand, took the imperial edict and began to read it.

Xiang Huayue saw this scene, put down a piece, picked up the teacup and took a sip, then quietly waited for His Majesty.

Liang Zhan had previously heard Chong Yue say that she had new ideas about the imperial examination, and he had already had some guesses in his mind. He didn't expect that she was so bold and dared to issue such an edict even though she was just a crown princess.

Liang Zhan read the imperial edict in his hand twice but did not respond.

"If your majesty has something to do, please go ahead and do it. No matter when this chess game is played, I will be waiting here for your majesty."

Upon hearing this, Liang Zhan curled up his lips into a meaningful smile and folded the imperial edict in half and handed it to the queen.

"Take a look, Chongyue just wrote it."

Xiang Huayue had spent most of her life in the palace, and had kept the man in her heart for more than twenty years. She often saw some of His Majesty's actions that were unknown to outsiders, and understood what His Majesty was thinking.

Ever since Chongyue was canonized as the Crown Princess by His Majesty and announced to the world, she only knew that Chongyue spent most of her time in the Yangxin Palace every day. His Majesty was slowly letting go, but she didn't know that His Majesty had let go to this extent.

Even a blank imperial edict could be given directly to Chongyue, allowing her to write it herself. This was far beyond the power of the Crown Princess.

However, Xiang Huayue was happy to hear all of this. Since His Majesty said so, she did not pretend to refuse. Curious about what Chongyue would write in the imperial edict, Xiang Huayue reached out and took the edict.

After unfolding and reading it, Xiang Huayue's expression changed slightly. He shifted his gaze away from the imperial edict and looked at His Majesty. For a moment, he could not guess what His Majesty was thinking after reading this imperial edict.

Xiang Huayue exerted a little force on the hand holding the imperial edict, stood up, walked to the front of His Majesty and knelt down:

"Your Majesty, Chongyue is young and short-sighted. I did not intend to break the rules set by our ancestors. Chongyue is kind-hearted. Please forgive me this time."

Liang Zhan did not help the queen up immediately as usual. Marquis Qi Deyuan was standing by. He did not know what was written in the imperial edict. He knelt down to apologize for the princess, but he could not help but worry for her.

Taking the imperial edict from the Queen, Liang Zhan read it again and read it out word for word in front of the Queen:

"This palace inherits the spirit of the ancestral temple and is granted the title of Crown Princess. I have jurisdiction over all four directions and wish to achieve the highest governance and expand the ranks of virtuous people.

Today, observing the laws of nature, where yin and yang complement each other, women's intelligence and talent are undoubtedly inferior to men's. In the past, Ban Zhao continued history, and Wen Ji composed poetry, both of whom were role models for the world. Now, a special decree is being issued, establishing the imperial examination system for women. All daughters of good families in counties and prefectures, possessing both talent and virtue and aspiring to govern the country, are welcome to take the exam.

The examinations are divided into various subjects: the fundamental principles of classics and history, poetry and prose, and current affairs and policy essays, all of which test talent and strategy; etiquette, virtue, appearance, virtue, and prudence, all of which examine character. The examinations must be thorough and thorough, and the selections must be fair, so that no pearls will be left in the dust or talented people will be lost in the wild.

All officials should conscientiously perform their duties, strictly follow my orders, and quickly prepare for the matter. Announcements should be posted everywhere so that everyone will know. May our Tang Dynasty flourish in literature, produce talented people, and together we will promote the great cause of the Tang Dynasty and write a glorious chapter of prosperity!

Announce this to the whole world, let it be known!"

"What a good announcement! It has been made known to the whole world. It is well written. The Queen has given me a wonderful daughter."

Qi Deyuan stood aside, unable to tell the emotion in His Majesty's tone. Just standing there, he broke out in a cold sweat. The imperial examination for women was unprecedented, and Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess was still a little anxious.

Your Majesty is still the Son of Heaven. You have already made a decision that goes against your ancestors by appointing a princess as the Crown Princess. If you now agree to allow women to take the imperial examinations, your Majesty's reputation as the greatest emperor of all time may be affected.

Xiang Huayue knelt before His Majesty, already understanding the warning in His Majesty's words. Chongyue had indeed taken a big step.

"It is because I failed to teach well. Your Majesty, please punish me."

Liang Zhan read the entire imperial edict carefully again. The main hall of Yiku Palace fell into silence. His Majesty did not speak, and even Qi Deyuan had to breathe very carefully.

I was afraid that if I breathed a little harder at this time, it would upset His Majesty again.

Suddenly, a bright yellow object was thrown into Qi Deyuan's arms. Qi Deyuan subconsciously reached out to take it. After he took it, he saw clearly that it was the imperial edict in His Majesty's hand.

Qi Deyuan held the imperial edict in his hand, bent his back even lower, and waited to hear the emperor's orders.

"I approve it. I will make an announcement as Chongyue said, and let everyone know about it."

Qi Deyuan didn't react for a moment, and when he received the cold look from His Majesty, his body trembled, and he immediately took the imperial edict:

"Yes, I will do it right away."

After saying that, Qi Deyuan walked out. Liang Zhan's eyes fell on the queen and saw that her beautiful brows were slightly furrowed, as if she was puzzled.

"Why don't you get up? Do you want me to touch you?"

Although he said this, Liang Zhan had not yet finished speaking when he reached out and pulled the queen into his arms.

Upon seeing this, the palace maids serving in the main hall of Yikun Palace all lowered their heads and retreated.

Liang Zhan held the queen in his arms, rested his head on her shoulder, smelled the familiar floral scent on her neck, closed his eyes and sniffed it gently.

Xiang Huayue was held in His Majesty's arms. She felt an itch on her neck and struggled uncomfortably.

"Don't move, be good, or I will issue an order right now to punish Chongyue with twenty strokes of the stick to let her know how wrong she is."

His Majesty's low voice sounded in her ears, and her warm breath fell on her earlobe. After so many years, Xiang Huayue still couldn't stand the itch.

The earlobes were so red that they looked like blood was dripping out.

Being held in His Majesty's arms, Xiang Huayue endured the itch on her neck and under her ears, and remained obedient and motionless. After enduring for a while, His Majesty seemed to find pleasure. The itch on her neck made her body soften, and her breathing became soft.

Unfortunately, she had been in a lot of trouble recently and really didn't want to serve, so she had to find a good opportunity, change her posture and sit in His Majesty's arms, and her voice was still soft and tender.

"Your Majesty is clearly unhappy, so why does he allow Chongyue to behave so absurdly?"

Liang Zhan had just relaxed his mood when he heard the Queen's unromantic question. His unhappy eyes fell on the Queen's snow-white neck, and he bit it with evil taste. He did not let go even when he heard the Queen's cry of pain.

"Good Majesty, please forgive me. Chongyue will come to try on the wedding dress later. If she leaves marks, how can I face my daughter?"

After hearing the queen's whining begging for mercy, Liang Zhan waited for a long time before letting her go. Looking at the teeth marks left on the back of the queen's neck, Liang Zhan felt much better.

"Since I have promised you that the future of Daxia belongs to Chongyue, it will be easier for her with a female official in the court."

As he spoke, Liang Zhan seemed to have remembered something and added:

"My Chongyue was born with a kind heart and deserves to be remembered in history. Don't let those bastards ruin her good reputation."

Xiang Huayue has been well aware of the affairs of the court over the years, so he naturally understands who the bastard His Majesty is talking about.

Chongyue has killed enough corrupt officials and cowardly people. If Chongyue wants to govern the court, he naturally needs his own trusted ministers.

Xiang Huayue had never thought that His Majesty agreed to the imperial examination for women just because he wanted Chongyue's life to be easier in the future. She was truly touched, and her eyes, which had just been red from his teasing, became even redder. When she turned her head to look at His Majesty, her heart ached, and the corners of her mouth pouted as if she was acting coquettishly.

Liang Zhan hadn't seen the queen look so charming for a long time. Although she was nearly forty years old, she was only more charming than when she was young. God favored her, and time had never left any traces on her face.

Liang Zhan held the queen in his arms, his arms straining as if he could become one with her:

"Are you happy now? Please comfort me. I'm afraid I'll be criticized by future generations after I die."

Xiang Huayue reached out and covered His Majesty's mouth, her fingers touching His Majesty's lips. The two who had been together for half their lives were so deeply in love that they were like newlyweds who had just fallen in love, and there was strong love in their eyes.

"Your Majesty, I forbid you to speak in such terms. Long live Your Majesty, the Son of Heaven. Great Xia will only grow better and better. Future generations will only sigh in admiration for Your Majesty's foresight, truly a great emperor through the ages."

Xiang Huayue had been saying words to coax His Majesty for half her life, and they came out of her mouth at any time. At this moment, she sincerely hoped that His Majesty could be happy. At the same time, she was also determined that as long as Chongyue was around, Chongyue would never let His Majesty be criticized by future generations.

Liang Zhan raised the corner of his mouth when he heard this, and he was very pleased with the queen's words.

"If I can truly live forever, I must have the Queen accompany me."

Liang Chongyue was sitting on the dragon throne in the Yangxin Palace at this time, listening to the system's description. She didn't expect that her scumbag father would actually agree to the imperial examination for women. The hand holding the wolf hair brush paused, and a drop of ink fell on the memorial.

It just so happened that this book was written very poorly, so Liang Chongyue simply drew a big x on it, saving even the ink.
