Mind Reading: Who understands? The emperor finally has a princess.

Chapter 56 is a typical example of wanting it all, he can't even be a gigolo.

Then, Jiang Si, dressed in official uniform, walked in.

"I thank Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty!"

[Ah, beautiful sister, you look so good in your official uniform! It's much more pleasing to the eyes than being a concubine in the harem. Come on, sister! I'm rooting for you!]

She is really the daughter that the Shaoqing of Dali Temple sent to the palace!

How come...

The Emperor: "My dear minister, please be at peace. Your talent is a blessing to me. If you need anything, please feel free to tell me. I will fully support you!"

Jiang Si: "Yes, Your Majesty!"

How could a woman be so favored by His Majesty?

Some ministers were dissatisfied and stood up.

"Your Majesty, weapon making is no joke. Lady Jiang... is a woman and has never touched a weapon before, so she is not suitable for it!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, this is ridiculous! A good concubine should be a blacksmith. Does she have the strength to swing a hammer?"

"It's just a show of force! If the Dayong soldiers knew the weapon belonged to a woman, they would lose their spirit before they even set out!"

……

Jiang Si stood up without being humble or arrogant and said, "I think you ministers are prejudiced against women. The weapon I designed can kill dozens of people with one shot. The weapon I designed will also be the killing weapon of Dayong."

"As the saying goes, the best strategy is to attack the enemy's plans. If we have a powerful weapon that can intimidate the enemy, it will inevitably reduce the casualties of our soldiers and make the enemy think twice. This is exactly what I want to design this weapon for!"

Jiang Si’s words are very powerful!

[Wow, sister, you're so cool, what you said makes so much sense. Conquering the enemy without fighting, sister, you're really thinking long-term! These old bastards, if they have the guts, why don't they just go to the battlefield themselves? All they do is talk nonsense!]

The emperor applauded!

"Okay, Jiang Si is right. The best strategy is to attack the enemy's strategy. Although it may not be useful, if it can serve as a deterrent, it will be very helpful to Wanshi."

At this moment, the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple went from being shocked and furious to being so excited to see his daughter standing upright in the court that he burst into tears.

He knew his daughter well.

She is extremely talented in weapon design, but unfortunately she is a woman. If she were a man, she would have entered the officialdom long ago.

Jiang Si looked at his old father and winked at him.

Then, Jiang Si stood at the back.

But Gao Deli's decree didn't end there: "The eldest prince has no ambition to make progress and his moral character has been damaged. He will be confined to his home for one month and fined three years' salary!"

Everyone was in an uproar!

what happened?

Doesn’t Your Majesty intend to appoint a crown prince?

The princes all had different expressions, some were happy, some were sad.

It seems that something big happened yesterday?

[Father's punishment is too light. He has committed such a heinous crime!]

Treason?

What did the eldest prince do?

Everyone pricked up their ears, little princess, please tell me quickly!

But the emperor coughed lightly a few times, believing that this family scandal could not be made public.

"What else do you have to say?"

The emperor quickly changed the subject to divert his daughter's attention.

"I have something to report!"

At this time, Ping'an Hou, who was wearing wrinkled clothes and looked very embarrassed, stood up.

When Long Xianxian saw Ping'an Hou, her eyes lit up.

[Eh? What's going on with this Ping An Hou? Was he robbed?]

Before Marquis Ping'an could finish his words, all the ministers looked over.

The general stroked his beard and laughed, "Marquis Ping'an, don't tell me you slept on the street last night!"

Ping An Hou snorted coldly: "The Grand Commandant is meddling too much. You should take care of your wife. Be careful that your family will not be at peace in the future!"

This is a big news!

The Taiwei dotes on his wife like crazy and hates to see others say such things about his wife.

"Bah, you old bastard, try saying that to me again!"

The general rolled up his sleeves and got to work!

Ping'an Hou was so frightened that he took two steps back.

After all, he was a veteran of the battlefield, and when the general got angry, his temper was no less severe than his age.

[Hahaha, this is making me laugh to death. This Marquis Ping'an really was kicked out of his home. His wife actually had a servant beat him out with a broom.]

When Long Xianxian saw the scroll that 666 gave her, she burst out laughing.

This Marquis Ping'an is really stupid!

It was really driven out! Everyone burst into laughter.

The general snorted, "Marquis Ping'an, I think if you go back and kneel on the washboard, you might still be saved. Your wife won't divorce you!"

Marquis Ping'an felt extremely ashamed that he was bullied to such an extent by a woman.

And Your Majesty, how could you allow women to enter the officialdom? How can this be disgraceful?

There is no peace in the Marquis of Ping'an's mansion now.

[The old Taiwei was right. This Ping'an Marquis is a confused person. When he inherited the Marquisate, the family was so poor that they couldn't even afford a meal of meat. That's why he married Ping'an Marquis' wife, a merchant. But then he looked down on her background.]

[He's a typical want-it-all, he can't even be a gigolo.]

[Yesterday, after leaving court, I went home to argue with the wife of the Marquis of Ping'an because of something that happened there. Unexpectedly, when the wife of the Marquis of Ping'an heard that His Majesty had relaxed the imperial examination system for women, she was planning to allow her only legitimate daughter to take the exam. The Marquis of Ping'an flew into a rage and refused to agree no matter what.]

[He even asked his wife to hand over the family's financial power. He even beat up the wife of the Marquis of Ping'an. Her wife was so angry that she picked up a broom and beat her violently!]

[In the end, the servant was simply kicked out of the house. In front of everyone, Ping An Hou was thrown into the street and cursed like a shrew. It was really a disgrace to a man.]

I have to say, Marquis Ping'an is really not a human being!

His wife is the richest woman in Beijing, so he just has to be a gigolo!

He had no real power in the Marquis of Ping'an's Mansion and his salary was not high.

It’s such a blessing to marry such a wife!

But Marquis Ping'an is so disappointing that he doesn't even know how to be a gigolo!

Everyone tried to hold back their laughter and tried to discuss state affairs, but no one spoke.

I was afraid that I would burst into laughter as soon as I opened my mouth.

The general pretended to be sympathetic and said, "Ah, I didn't expect that I guessed it right. Ping'an Hou is so brave. After the court is dismissed, you should go home and teach your wife a lesson and divorce her!"

Marquis Ping'an snorted coldly!

He had lost all his shame at this moment. He would definitely divorce that shrew when he got back!

[Hahaha, without waiting until the court session ended, the Marquis of Ping'an's wife wrote the divorce letter right away and directly left the Marquis of Ping'an's mansion with her daughter. Poor Marquis of Ping'an's eighteenth concubine!]

Ping'an Hou was stunned, what?

How dare that fierce woman do this?

How could this be true? How could it be true?

Not only that, the Marquis of Ping'an's wife also took away her dowry and other purchases, everything she could take away, but she didn't take any of the Marquis of Ping'an's concubines or other children with her.

When Long Xianxian saw the scene in the scroll, she burst out laughing.

The wife of the Marquis of Ping'an was so ruthless. She took away everything she could, and smashed the things she couldn't take away.

Ping'an Hou's concubines and illegitimate sons and daughters were all raised by his wife, and were used to a life of luxury. However, they did not expect that his mistress wanted to divorce Ping'an Hou, so they knelt down and begged his mistress to take them away.

But these people were married by Marquis Ping'an himself, so what does it have to do with her?

Besides, I have done my best to raise them for so many years.

Over the years, the wife of Marquis Ping'an did not stop him from taking concubines. The main reason was that she did not want Marquis Ping'an to cause trouble for her, so she allowed him to marry eighteen concubines in a row.

Now that the Marquis of Ping'an's wife is gone, it will be difficult for him to support a bunch of concubines!

But Ping An Hou was still furious: "How dare she? I will divorce her!"

The emperor was speechless: "Alright, what a disgrace to the Marquis of Ping'an!"

The Marquis of Ping'an quickly stood up and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, if a woman is in power, not only will the family suffer, but the court will also be in turmoil. I implore Your Majesty to withdraw your proposal to allow women to enter the government."

But the Minister of Personnel was anxious at this moment. He went back last night and registered his daughter.

"Marquis Ping'an, aren't you ashamed of yourself for not having peace in your own home? Besides, your wife is a very important person. You are not proud of having such a wife, but instead you are jealous of her. Are you crazy?"

[That's right, look at how enlightened the Minister of Personnel is. Yesterday, his wife went straight back to Wangyun Tower and encountered the scholars there, arguing with each other. She then set up a stage and personally led the women taking the imperial examinations to debate with them. She truly became famous in one battle!]

Marquis Ping'an never expected that his wife would be so bold!

Wouldn’t that offend the powerful people of the dynasty and all the scholars in Dayong!

It's over now!
