Of course, Han Yi knew that it was Wu Meiniang who invited him to the palace, not Li Zhi, because Li Zhi was not so familiar with these trivial matters now, but for Wu Meiniang, that was definitely not a trivial matter.

On the way to the palace, Han Yi was also thinking, because for him, it was quite sudden. Although he knew that Xiao Wuyi was pushing women forward, he did not expect that he would develop so quickly and had already reached such a scale. Only Xiao Wuyi could keep this low profile and play with it too much.

At this point, even he had to admire his wife. This was not a cleverness, but a killer move.

It can be said that Xiao Wuyi led the woman to break out a bright road in the cracks, which is very difficult.

These fields that women are engaged in today are things that ordinary people cannot do before, and capable men are unwilling to do.

The only thing that can be added is the noble woman. Xiao Wuyi saw this at the beginning and bet on it all.

This aristocratic woman is actually a group of very talented people who have nothing to do. Even the children do not need them to take care of themselves. As the social atmosphere changes, they slowly fill all the gaps.

In fact, this is also an investment, because these jobs were insignificant and no one paid attention to them in the past, but with the development of business, these positions became very important. The status of these women is also rising. They are rich and have high status, and their bosses dare not offend them. Moreover, they have seized the opportunity. Over the years, they have gained a lot of experience from it, but they never share it with men, only with women, and also help ordinary women through the Women's Federation Bureau. This woman is a vulnerable group, so they are very united. Men fight in every day, and Jinshi and Jinshi in the regular subjects are also fighting hard, and no one pays attention to the development of women. As a result, women now have absolute initiative in these fields. Men really compete for them for a while, and they are defeated in all aspects.

Since social development is inseparable from women, Xiao Wuyi will of course ask for more. What is silent dedication? That is not the style of Sister Wuyi.

But then again, this kind of thing can only happen in the Tang Dynasty, because the women in the Tang Dynasty were relatively strong, especially among the nobles. There were many shrews. Xiao Wuyi was just the shrews, the most prominent one. They have a good status and are capable. If they want to give them another chance, what can they really play?

.

Wu Meiniang met Han Yi in a small garden next to the Political Affairs Hall.

But when Han Yi saw Wu Meiniang, his eyes lit up. Today, Wu Meiniang was wearing a reddish-brown skirt, golden phoenix embroidery, and a purple base coat inside. It was pulled taller and there was no trace of groove. She was still following the traditional wide-robed and big sleeve route, because Wu Meiniang has a very plump figure. If she wanted to tie her body, she would be sexy. She might only wear it on special occasions, but she also had a belt and added some curved designs to fully demonstrate the beauty of her plump figure, and she also looked very solemn and generous, elegant and luxurious, which was very compatible with Wu Meiniang's kingly temperament.

"See the Queen."

"No gift."

After the palace maid left, Han Yi smiled and said, "It's pretty."

Wu Meiniang asked with a smile: "Are you praising your clothes or yourself?"

This set is the official uniform designed by Han Yi for Wu Meiniang.

"Of course not." Han Yi smiled and said, "No matter how good the clothes look, what's the use? The key is that people look good."

Wu Meiniang pursed her lips and smiled, unable to hide the happy look on her face. This woman likes to dress beautifully, and Wu Meiniang is no exception. She said: "This is the 20 most outstanding female tailors in the palace sewed one by one stitch and thread. I am very satisfied with it."

There is something in this sentence! Han Yi sighed: "It's a female seamstress again. I have really heard too many stories about this today."

Wu Meiniang smiled and said, "I have heard about the Education Association and the Education Bureau just now." As she said that, she looked at Han Yi with a slanted look.

Han Yi hurriedly said: "This matter really has nothing to do with me."

Wu Meiniang didn't doubt it and said, "Even if it has nothing to do with you, I believe it must have a lot to do with Yuncheng, right?"

Han Yi smiled bitterly and said, "I can't deny this either."

Wu Meiniang asked again: "What exactly do Yuncheng want to do?"

Han Yi said: "She wants to improve the status of a woman."

"What do you think?"

Wu Meiniang actually likes Xiao Wuyi very much. The two people have great similarities in their personalities and ideas, but Wu Meiniang is power-ministering, not feminist, while Xiao Wuyi is feminist. Xiao Wuyi does these things not for himself.

Han Yi pondered for a moment and said, "First of all, this is definitely very beneficial to you, the queen. I won't say much about the reasons. Secondly, Queen, you must not interfere in this matter."

Wu Meiniang frowned and said, "Why is this? This matter is related to Zhaoyi Academy. It is also worth it for me to speak out for help." After she knew about this, she felt that God really helped her, and she was extremely grateful to Xiao Wuyi.

Han Yi shook his head and said, "Empress, if you can come out to preside over government affairs, it has already touched the bottom line of a man. If you insist on improving the status of a woman, it will attract the attention of many ministers. After all, the ministers in the court are all men. If you do not handle the queen carefully, it will arouse strong opposition from the ministers, and the nature of this matter will be different. Originally, Wuyi just wanted to use this to improve the status of a woman, and it has nothing to do with you. You should sit back and take advantage of this fisherman. However, if you have some interventions, it is a political issue. In politics, women are not a match for men, and this matter will become very complicated."

Wu Meiniang said: "But according to the temporary law, this matter should be handled by me."

Han Yi shook his head and said, "It's not necessarily true that Gao Chongde and others will never give up. They will definitely submit a memorial request for help from the court, but they will not come to find the queen. After all, you are a woman. Isn't it a pity to come to find you? I think this matter will definitely go to His Majesty. The queen must hide away from you."

Wu Meiniang pondered for a moment and said, "Do you think Yuncheng and the others will succeed?"

Han Yi smiled bitterly and said, "I think it will be successful, but I only knew it just now, because many positions are almost monopolized by women. If all women are driven out, men cannot make up for them, and businessmen will not agree. This may directly lead to a business crisis. The problem now is that women want to go further, consolidate women's advantages, establish women's Imperial College, and study higher knowledge.

But men also woke up and began to want to suppress women. However, from reason to reason, these women have the upper hand, and men can only be unreasonable in this matter. Therefore, they do not get the support of all men, and merchants cannot support them. Moreover, many women serve the family, and many families will not support them, so men cannot win this battle."

Wu Meiniang said: "But discussing this matter is a group of ministers unless you come forward to help them."

Han Yi shook his head and said, "I also try to avoid mixing in, because I am afraid that everyone thinks that this is what I am pushing behind the scenes and politicizes this matter, but someone will definitely stand up. Queen, don't forget that it is aristocratic women who monopolize those senior positions. Many of them are the daughters and even wives of officials in the court. They will definitely convince some ministers to help them, and those ministers can win by just being reasonable."

Wu Meiniang nodded slightly.

Han Yi suddenly asked, "I wonder when the queen decided to cooperate with the Tao family?"

Wu Meiniang was stunned and smiled and said, "I have also read your economics, and it has been more than once. Judging from your economics, if you want to accumulate wealth quickly, financing is the best way, and for me, it is the only way, because I am not as rich as you. The Tao family has rich experience, strong financial resources, and broad sales channels. So the clay is honest and honest. If you cooperate with the Tao family, glass will appear on the market at the beginning of next year and can be sold to Jiangnan within two years. Why? Do you don't agree?"

"That's not." Han Yi said: "I'm just afraid of losing my job."

Wu Meiniang nodded and looked at Han Yi with some difficulty understanding.

Han Yi said: "I thought the queen had a help from her, and that would make my position in danger."

Wu Meiniang chuckled softly and said, "Even if you have the help of a master, you are far from comparable to you. This secret recipe is what you gave me."

Han Yi smiled and said, "I feel relieved after hearing what the queen said."

As Han Yi said, Gao Chongde and they are all children of officials and are truly princes. They have a way to reach the heavens' listening. Moreover, most of the civil officials in the court also support them very much, and the opposition from the court is very loud.

Li Zhi soon knew about this, but he was surprised. In his opinion, this happened suddenly, so he asked Wu Meiniang. Wu Meiniang said she was not clear because there was no memorial in this regard.

Li Zhi was both puzzled and curious, and he wanted to know what happened, because in his opinion, this matter was very bizarre. It happened that the court meeting had not been held for a long time, so Li Zhi held the court meeting.

Tai Chi Hall.

"I have received many memorials recently, all of which are impeaching this woman for not being virtuous. Is it true that the Tang Dynasty does not need their dear friends to worry about it anymore?" Li Zhi said very easily. When this matter broke into the Tai Chi Hall, he actually found it funny and it was not easy to discuss it too seriously.

"Your Majesty, this matter is not a trivial matter, you should not be careless!"

Zhang Wenguan immediately stood up.

Li Zhi said oh, "What do you mean by Zhang Zhongshu?"

Zhang Wenguan said: "Now many women in Chang'an not only show up in public, but also hang out with men in workshops. The etiquette and morality of our Central Plains have been ruined by these women. If the etiquette and law are broken for a long time, how can this country be maintained? Not only that, those women are now thinking about building a women's Imperial Academy. What is an Imperial Academy? It is the highest institution of our Tang Dynasty and the door of scholars to enter the government. Obviously, they also want to enter the court to become officials. Therefore, the old ministers think that this is not a small matter. The court should take it carefully and issue orders as soon as possible to prevent the spread of this unhealthy trend."

The reason why they oppose this is to safeguard patriarchal rights and secondly to safeguard etiquette and law, which are their core interests.

Li Zhi said in surprise: "Zhang Zhongshu's words are serious?"

Zhang Wenguan said: "Every old minister is true, and he will never dare to deceive His Majesty."

Immediately, a large number of civil officials stood up and scolded those women for being ill-gotten and filial, regardless of etiquette and human ethics. Anyway, it was the Confucian style.

Li Zhi was confused, so serious!

You bastards, at least they have some moral character. How could I stay out of your way when you scold my wife like this? Han Yi stared at the group of civil officials, with dissatisfaction in his eyes and some were ready to move.

Before he could stand up, an old man stood up and said, "Your Majesty, these civil servants are all distorting right and wrong, and they are not trustworthy."

It is the veteran Pang Tongshan.

The civil officials were stunned, as if they did not expect Wu to stand up.

Li Zhi asked: "Why did General Pang say that?"

Pang Tongshan said: "Your Majesty might as well think about it. Did the matter they said happened yesterday? Obviously not, but why did they just raise it today?"

Li Zhi opened his eyes and said that this was the strangest thing he thought. Suddenly, there were so many problems, which was too strange. He asked hurriedly: "It seems that General Pang knows this."

It can be seen that he agrees with Pang Tongshan's words.

"Your Majesty, I know this very well." Pang Tongshan said slowly: "In fact, it is not that women are not familiar with women's morality, but that our Tang Dynasty has been developing and progressing. After many reforms, the lifestyle of the people has changed. This woman had to go to the city to work. In the past, women raised silkworms, weaving cloth, and caring for their husbands and children at home, and everything was harmonious and happy.

But now, individuals have not received much reward for raising silkworms. They are far less powerful than working in workshops and cannot meet the needs of the family. Nowadays, children are sent to the college for education, but going to school requires money, so women must go out of the house, work in workshops, and earn more money to supplement the family income. However, they have not been hang out with men. According to my understanding, most workshops are separated by men and women, and they are not allowed to work together, because men and women do not do the same work. Women do some meticulous work, or do literary work, men do some heavy work, and most of them will not stay together, even the men and women of Zhaoyi College are separated."

Li Zhi nodded frequently when he heard this, and at the same time he was puzzled. Pang Tongshan became so good at speaking and his principles were very clear.

Han Yi sighed in his heart that behind every successful man is a great woman, and this is true!

Ren Yaxiang also said: "Your Majesty, as far as I know, this female Imperial Academy was proposed by the Education Association. Their suggestion was actually for the court, and it was not a greed for the career of the government. If Your Majesty does not believe it, you can ask Director Wang. The female Imperial Academy proposed by the Education Association is specializing in studying some majors such as mathematics and science, and does not cover Confucianism and Taoism classics. If you don't learn these, how can you become an official in the court?"

Li Zhi asked Wang Yifang again: "But it is true?"

Wang Yifang nodded.

Li Zhi looked at Zhang Wenguan and the others again, feeling unhappy.

Asanami Sho suddenly laughed and said, "Your Majesty, don't blame them. Some men who are powerless are not good at competing with women, so they pushed all the mistakes on the head of women. I am used to it."

Li Zhi was puzzled when he heard this: "What's going on?"

Qibing Heli said: "Your Majesty, the reason why so many people say that those women have bad virtues is that many scholars and scholars are now looking for things to do among the people, but they found that women snatched away all these good things, and they could not compete for them. Therefore, they could only seek help from the court, hoping to drive the women out, so they could make up for it."

Li Zhi said in surprise: "This man can't compete with a woman?"

Cheng Chuliang laughed and said, "Your Majesty doesn't know that in business, there is no need for Confucianism and Taoism classics. What you need is mathematics, science, medicine, anyway, there are all about the Six Sages of the Sages, but those scholars looked down on these studies at the time. There were more women who studied the Six Sages of the Sages than men, so they couldn't compete at all."

"All nonsense!" Zhang Wenguanyi said righteously: "This woman should obey the three obediences and four virtues, which is a virtue. However, now, if you go outside and see those women, how can they still remember this woman's virtue?"

Asanami cried and said, "Just like these three obediences and four virtues, those women go out to do things first, but they only go there by their husbands and parents' permission. They do some open and upright things. How can they be said to be a traitor? Besides, the crisis that caused every household to have no food to eat, and the court could not help them. The women did not expect the court to help them, but went out to make money to support their families themselves. You civil officials still have the nerve to say that the crisis was caused by you civil officials."

Although many of them could not recognize big words, they could stand on the Tai Chi Hall, and their status was extraordinary. Of course, they would not marry those women who could not recognize big words. Qibing Heli's wives were all from princesses, and their women were all very powerful.

Zhang Wenguan is now the most unbearable for these generals to talk about the crisis. Because it was the civil officials who made a mess at that time, and later the generals stabilized the situation, so the generals often used this to humiliate the civil officials. Zhang Wenguan pointed at Ashinami and said, "You reckless men don't know the big words, and you don't even understand the most basic etiquette and human ethics, so you have the nerve to preach to me here."

Asanami Shoo was also very angry and pointed at Zhang Wenguan and said, "You old man, dare to scold me. Do you believe it or not, I broke your arm."

Zhang Wenguan was also very angry and pointed at the outsider and said, "Okay, okay, let's go out to compete today."
