After being expelled from the mansion, I changed the dynasty by writing novels.

At this moment, inside the Ling residence, in the study, the Imperial Censor angrily pointed a whip at the woman kneeling on the ground.

"You unfilial daughter!" She said, and was about to swing the whip in her hand, but was stopped by Madam Ling who was standing to the side.

"My lord, you mustn't!" Madam Ling's eyes filled with tears as she turned to her kneeling daughter and said, "Luo'er! Quickly apologize to your father!"

“Father, Mother, your daughter doesn’t think she’s done anything wrong!” Ling Luo knelt upright, showing no fear whatsoever.

Lord Ling was so angry at her appearance that he glared at her and whipped her. Madam Ling tried to stop him but couldn't.

"How dare you join forces with women to besiege the imperial city? What do you intend to do with the Ling family?"

"Don't worry, the court won't be able to trace it back to my daughter." Ling Luo knelt upright, seemingly confident.

Upon hearing her words and seeing her expression, Lord Ling slumped into a chair in frustration, staring at her stubborn face and saying, "It really was that storybook that ruined you! What exactly do you want?"

“Of course, it’s to secure opportunities for women to serve in the court! In terms of knowledge and talent, these daughters are no less capable than their brothers, so why must I marry when I reach a certain age? I’m not happy about it. This world is unfair, so I’m going to forge my own path!” Before she finished speaking, the whip struck her again, but she didn’t feel the slightest pain.

"How can a woman serve as an official in the court? If people knew that a woman was in power and would bring disaster to the government, the world would condemn her!"

Ling Luo could only laugh upon hearing this, "Father, the 'people of the world' you're referring to probably only refers to men!"

"You...you...it's my fault for not raising my daughter well!"

"Father, please allow me to be selfish this once. I really don't want to live like Mother, spending my days in the inner quarters relying on men's charity. You're just afraid I'll implicate the family, so from now on I sever all ties with the Ling family! I'm severing all father-daughter relations with Lord Ling from this day forward." Ling Luo said, looking into Lord Ling's eyes.

"You, you rebellious daughter, are you trying to drive me crazy?"

"Luo Luo, stop talking nonsense! How can a young woman survive after you've severed all ties with the Ling family?!"

No sooner had Madam Ling finished speaking than Lord Ling shouted for the family discipline to be applied.

Upon hearing this, Madam Ling could no longer hold back her sobs.

Ling Luo was beaten several times in the ancestral hall and then forced to kneel there, with several old women watching her closely.

Inside the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the emperor changed out of his court robes. The disturbances outside the palace had become too great recently, and it was no longer possible to continue suppressing them by force. It was said that many women had come out of their homes to seek power.

In fact, the emperor had considered appointing women to official positions before, but he was worried that the conservative faction in the court would definitely oppose it. Since this was a long and arduous task, he thought he would find a reason to bring it up in court.

Unexpectedly, before he could find a good opportunity, the storybook "Starfall Rain" was published. Originally, it was just a low-class storybook that no one paid attention to. No one expected that it would accumulate strength and become a household name in less than half a month.

The emperor had never read the storybook, but he knew that the women in it were able to enter the court as officials because the storybook gave them the determination to succeed.

Since this book had set the stage, the emperor let it go with the flow. He wanted to use this story to prepare for his policies and reduce resistance.

So when Ye Yuwu was brought to the court, he didn't say a word. He just sat on the dragon throne and watched the ministers below argue with a leisurely air.

Naturally, he wouldn't punish Ye Yuwu so quickly, after all, she was still very useful.

Meanwhile, inside Zion Palace, the imperial concubine was already furious.

She couldn't understand why the Crown Prince had returned like this, but at least there was good news.

"The manager who published the storybook has been arrested, but the author of the book has not yet been caught."

Yes, that's right. Ever since she returned from watching the play last time, storybooks have become popular again in the harem, and she naturally can't stand being portrayed that way in them.

What's even more infuriating is that this story is still widely circulated among the people, with storytellers, theatergoers, and even picture albums appearing.

In the storybooks, the image of the imperial concubine has affected her ability to maintain peace for so long, which directly leads many people to still project their own feelings onto her.

In particular, the Empress would always look at her with a probing gaze, and she was afraid that she would be exposed, and also afraid that what she had done back then would be discovered, so she kept quiet day and night.

The Imperial Concubine, who never tolerated any wrongdoing, took the initiative, but she never expected that this small bookstore would have someone protecting it.

When she realized that she couldn't get through to the hard line, she found a few people to stir up trouble, which would incite conflict and trigger herd mentality.

Sure enough, within a few days, the bookstore was shut down and the people there were arrested and imprisoned.

But I still can't shake off the hatred in my heart!

This was the second time Ye Yuwu had been brought before the emperor, and she actually felt a sense of practice making perfect.

This time it was in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

The ministers in the palace were also summoned by the emperor to handle government affairs.

However, these ministers were generally of the third rank or below.

Without the formality and majesty of the Golden Hall, Ye Yuwu felt a little more at ease.

The ministers were also puzzled by the emperor's intentions and why he had suddenly brought this person up.

These shrewd people kept turning their heads.

"Tell me, Madam Ye, why did you write such a story?"

Ye Yuwu was startled. As expected, nothing could escape the emperor's investigation, and her other identity had been discovered.

These ministers also learned from the emperor's tone that the person who wrote the storybook and the author of the storybook were the same person, which explained why the other person could not be caught.

"Your Majesty, I only wrote these stories to make a living. I had no ulterior motives. I never expected them to be spread like this. I beg Your Majesty to see the truth!"

The emperor, seated at the head of the table, gave a short laugh.

"I am asking you why you wrote about the idea of ​​women serving as officials. I heard from the Empress that the book ends with the female protagonist entering the court as an official."

"Your Majesty, this book is merely a woman's delusion. It contains no ideas whatsoever, and any ideas it contains are baseless. The presence of women in official positions is an omen of misfortune for the court."

Ye Yuwu glanced at the minister who suddenly spoke again, and saw that it was an old acquaintance. She had just overheard him speaking and he seemed to be the Censor-in-Chief.

He's everywhere, always jumping out to refute the emperor's wishes.

As expected, the emperor was very displeased.

He just hid it very quickly.

Ye Yuwu immediately spoke up, “Your Majesty, this young lady believes that women are no less than men, but for many years no one has provided them with a path to advancement. Originally, I wrote stories only for myself, but later, as I wrote, I realized that the characters I created seemed to have their own souls. I could no longer let them follow the path I had set for them before, which is why the ending was about the path of female officials.”
