The imperial concubine is charming and charming, and only seeks power and wealth

It can be said that the two of them built the Great Han Empire together.

The couple have been married for many years and have gone through hardships together. They trust each other and love each other.

When the world was pacified, Taizu refused to expand his harem and never oppressed his wife.

Later, they created the story of two saints ruling the country.

Unlike today when one can only manage the internal affairs of the harem and royal family, the inner court at that time was a small court belonging to the queen alone. Under the phoenix seal, one could directly intervene in state affairs.

Female officials who came out of the inner court could also stand in the court, serve as officials with men, and share power.

The reason why the status of women in this dynasty is much higher than that in the previous dynasty is due to the contributions of each of them.

However, according to historical records throughout history, only Taizu was willing to rule the country alongside the empress.

With the death of Empress Gaowu and Emperor Taizu, the power of the subsequent empresses of the Dahan Dynasty was gradually taken back and they returned to their own little piece of land in the harem.

Girls' schools were closed one after another, and classics, history, and literature were no longer the subjects of study for girls.

Instead, traditional women's studies such as female rules and women's training that were popular in the previous dynasty were brought up again.

The status of women was gradually suppressed, and they were once again trapped in the inner court, becoming dependent on men.

Until now, the inner court founded by Empress Gaowu is not much different from the Internal Affairs Bureau of the previous dynasty.

When Jiang Lingyue was in her boudoir, she read a lot of miscellaneous books, including the personal biography of Empress Gaowu.

Of the three hundred years of Dahan's reign, her favorite period was the founding of the country.

only……

She blinked, "Why did you raise Empress Wu?"

Qi Junyi laughed: "Yueyue is so smart, don't you really know?"

Jiang Lingyue's eyes widened slowly, somewhat incredulous. "You want to give me power and let me become the second Queen Gaowu?"

Qi Junyi raised his eyebrows slightly and said disapprovingly: "Our Yueyue is unique, just be yourself."

What do you mean?

Jiang Lingyue frowned: "What do you want to do?"

"Don't you think that women's way out shouldn't just be in men?" Qi Junyi held her little head, looked at her carefully for a while, and said with a smile: "Then how about we find another way out for them?"

In addition to taking care of her husband and children, there are also fights between wives and concubines.

Find another way?

Where to find.

There are ready-made examples right in front of us.

History has long told the world that as long as women are given opportunities, they are no worse than men.

But power is a good thing, and men will never allow women to get their hands on it.

It's not okay for a hen to crow at dawn.

After Empress Gaowu passed away, women were severely oppressed and all power returned to the hands of men again. With the lessons learned from the past, it would be very difficult to seize power from them again.

But the man in front of her said that he would find another way for the woman.

As the emperor, you are the supreme ruler and you should never joke.

He means it.

Jiang Lingyue suppressed the chaotic thoughts in her heart and pursed her lips and said, "Don't you think women should be obedient and be good wives in the backyard?"

Qi Junyi laughed, "When have I ever been so old-fashioned?"

The emperor who rules the world has all the people in the world as his subjects, but not only men are the people of the world.

Jiang Lingyue looked at him in a daze, as if she was getting to know the man in front of her all over again.

Also.

If he was a conservative person, he would never have brought the eldest prince into the palace in his previous life.

Even the position of the eldest prince can be given to anyone at will.

It's just about improving the status of women, what's the big deal?

Finally, it feels a bit real.

Jiang Lingyue's eyelashes trembled.

She whispered, "It will be difficult to implement this policy."

"It's difficult, but not too difficult." Qi Junyi patted her head and asked, "Just do whatever you want to do. I'll back you up. Do you trust me?"

“…” Jiang Lingyue nodded.

Qi Junyi smiled and asked, "Then, Queen Mother, have you thought about finding a way out for women? What should be the first step?"

Jiang Lingyue said, "Issue decrees in all major prefectures and counties to reopen girls' schools, so that the women of Dahan can have books to read, gain knowledge through reading, and broaden their minds, so that they will no longer be sold at a price and manipulated by others."

In this peaceful and prosperous era, the people have enough food and clothing. Compared with the previous dynasties, knowledge is no longer monopolized by the nobles. Even the poorest farmers can afford to send their sons to school by tightening their belts.

Women's status is not higher than that of men. In order to encourage people to send their daughters to school, the government can be more relaxed.

Qi Junyi listened carefully and said, "Anything else?"

This is hardly a way out.

"Yes... Girls' schools should not teach rules for women or women's conduct. Instead, they should, like boys' schools, read the classics, history, and literature, and learn the strategies of governing a country."

At this point, Jiang Lingyue paused, and under the encouraging gaze of the man in front of her, she said, "Open up a path to success for them similar to the imperial examination."

The only way out is to allow women to truly hold power like men.

You can fight for your own future.

Bringing honor to the family is no longer just a word that belongs to men.

Compared to the little girl who was at a loss as to where she was going, her eyes were firm.

Finally, he had some of the aura of a superior.

Qi Junyi's smile deepened, and he said, "Okay."

Jiang Lingyue was stunned when she heard this.

He agreed too easily.

It was so easy that she felt it was just a trivial matter.

But both of them knew that if their conversation got out.

It will definitely shock the government and the public.

There are only so many rights, and the same goes for resources.

To raise the status of women, which has been suppressed with great difficulty, it will affect more than just the interests of a few families.

This affects the interests of all men.

"Don't be afraid," Qi Junyi said, "Take it one step at a time."

He is not a puppet emperor controlled by his ministers.

Even after she died in the previous life, when he went mad, the government affairs never became chaotic.

As long as he wants, there is no policy that cannot be implemented.

The man in front of me had a warm voice, gentle eyes, and handsome features. He was very handsome.

Although they were discussing something so important that it could shake the world, their demeanor remained nonchalant, as if they were strolling leisurely in the garden.

It really makes people feel safe.

Like a mountain.

A mountain that you can always trust and rely on.

Jiang Lingyue's heart almost jumped out of her throat.

She didn't dare to speak, fearing that opening her mouth would reveal her emotions.

After a long, long time, he finally calmed down his pounding heart and said, "You are so amazing. Is there anything that can stump you?"

He looks really awesome.

Omnipotent and indestructible.

Qi Junyi chuckled: "I'm so amazing, can Yueyue like me again?"

“…” Jiang Lingyue didn’t say anything. She just tightened her arms around his neck and hugged him tighter.

She tilted her head to look at his profile.

She has a cool white complexion, delicate brow bones, deep and bright eyes, and a straight nose.

The jawline is smooth and the neck is long.

Finally it landed on his slightly protruding Adam's apple.

She raised her hand and poked it, but it was quickly held. She immediately said dissatisfiedly: "I want to play for a while."

"..." Qi Junyi's Adam's apple rolled, and he said helplessly, "What's so fun about this?"

He is not a dead thing.

He could let her tease him without any reaction.
