In Fengtian Temple.

The four monarchs and ministers are still silent.

After Queen Zhang said something, she turned around and left.

No room for rebuttal.

Of course, Liu Jian has countless reasons to refute.

After all, in Confucianism, there are too many 'big principles'.

but……

Queen Zhang mentioned one thing.

But the hearts of the four monarchs and ministers trembled.

They are all old fried dough sticks. Emperor Hongzhi has been king for more than 20 years, while Liu Jian and others have experienced ups and downs in their careers.

Because of this, they can always think about something calmly, and they will never judge something impulsively based on their mood or their likes and dislikes.

"That's right." Liu Jian smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, times have changed."

When he said these words, he looked weak.

He sighed: "When the lady wanted to establish the Women's Federation, the old man didn't understand it at that time, and thought... the old minister dared to speak out, and the old minister even thought... it was nonsense. But when you think about it carefully, the lady is planning for a long time. In the past, there were refugees everywhere, too many refugees, which became a hidden danger. Now... it is manpower exhaustion. So many men go to sea, so many men mine, so many men build bridges and pave roads, so many men work. There is a steady stream of others Refugees from the prefectural capital have flowed into Baoding and into the capital, but still... manpower is still insufficient. Veteran officials are thinking, will there be even more shortage of manpower in the future? People who have no foresight must have near-term worries. Now, many cotton spinning workshops have been built. Let’s face it, there is a shortage of female workers, many people’s families are not well-off, relying on men may not be able to support themselves, so they have to let women do the work, will this become a trend in the future?”

"Women go out to work, so...should the imperial court regard them as lowly women who are immoral and do not abide by women's morals?"

Liu Jian looked at Emperor Hongzhi.

He wants to find an answer.

Emperor Hongzhi walked back and forth with his hands behind his back, his heart was shaken, and he said: "The Qing family will continue talking."

Liu Jian coughed: "If you treat them as lowly women, sooner or later, there will be big troubles. They are also supporting their families, and they still have children for a family; if they are underestimated by the court, sooner or later, The imperial court will also be hated by people. Now...the water is coming! But the canal has not yet been dug out, and the imperial court has only built dams to guide the current. Can this water be held back? How long can it be held back? Dao, whether it is sparse or not, the times have changed, and the court must also change."

He smacked his lips, coughed, and continued: "However, we can't make a big change. Hundreds of thousands of years of accumulated habits can be changed at will? If you take a big step, something big will happen. So... the imperial court has to take a step forward, But you need to be cautious. This is also the reason why the old minister thinks that the empress is holy. The empress has established a women's association. In this way, it can be considered that the palace has given enough support to these working women. It makes them feel at ease and can help them They preside over some justice. But on the other hand, the empress is not the imperial court, even if it causes dissatisfaction among many people, after all, the imperial court is still separated from the Women's Federation."

Emperor Hongzhi's expression eased a lot: "I listened to what you said, and I really liked it. It's true that the empress sees far away. She tried her best to share my worries, but I almost... misunderstood her."

Liu Jian smiled: "Now, what the imperial court has to do is to be happy to see it succeed, but it can't be too supportive. For example, the matter of Fang Xiaofan, the old minister thought about it. At the beginning, when the math competition was held, there was no prohibition on women. Take the exam. The cabinet also clearly stated that the person with the highest ranking will be admitted to the cabinet, so... just follow the trend, even if someone scolds, but after all, it can be said that... the cabinet needs to keep its word, and Fang Xiaofan's entry into the cabinet is nothing more than an acquaintance. The Women's Federation echoed each other from afar. All in all, if the court wants to be specious, it's like walking on a bamboo pole. One side must be biased, and the other side must be considered. Make another plan."

Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help laughing: "Isn't this a sloppy wall, falling on both sides with the wind?"

Liu Jian said with a smile: "This is the mean!"

Hearing the word Zhongyong, Emperor Hongzhi immediately felt comforted in his heart.

This word is good and sounds good.

Emperor Hongzhi put his hands behind his back: "It seems that Fang Xiaofan must join the cabinet. I'm worried that she's just a little girl, so it's best not to cause any trouble."

Liu Jian and others patted their chests and assured: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, not to mention a little girl, even if Fang Jifan has entered the cabinet, the ministers, he will be disciplined and obedient."

Emperor Hongzhi: "..."

He hesitated for a long time: "I feel that Ji Fan is quite honest, and capable in doing things. How come you say that he is not even as good as a girl?"

This time, it was the turn of Liu Jian and the others to be embarrassed.

That bastard Fang Jifan has a human face and a beast heart!

Emperor Hongzhi saw that they were hesitating, but he didn't go into details.

He turned around and said, "Xiao Ban..."

Halfway through the talk, it occurred to me that Xiao Jing hadn't come back yet.

He hasn't come back yet, did he walk back to the capital?

Emperor Hongzhi decided to punish him severely when he came back.

Take a deep breath: "Call Fang Jifan and Fang Xiaofan."

…………

When Emperor Hongzhi wanted to summon the two brothers and sisters, the two brothers and sisters had already arrived at the Meridian Gate.

Fang Jifan happily said to Fang Xiaofan all the way: "Do you understand now? Brother is so good. I asked you to do the questions before. This is Brother's unique secret book. I don't teach it to ordinary disciples and grandchildren."

Fang Xiaofan said lonely: "The world of mathematics is really lonely. I stand on the top of the mountain and look down at the climbers below. I can see all the small mountains. It's still cold when I climb on a high place. Why are there not many people who are smarter?" The people who stand with me on this peak of mathematics."

Fang Jifan: "..."

This pretense is definitely hereditary.

Fang Jifan also sighed: "Yes, yes, I also feel this way for my brother. There are so many idiots in the world. For my brother, I stand on the top of the mountains and look at those fools. Sometimes I don't get angry. I really hope this In the world, there should be a few smarter people who can reach the brother's ankle, otherwise...it's really too lonely, too lonely. The heights are extremely cold, and I wish I could ride the wind back."

Fang Xiaofan said: "Is the emperor also a fool?"

Fang Jifan hurriedly looked around and saw no one around, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and said cautiously: "Close the door, it's okay for us to say something between our brothers and sisters. Strictly speaking, you're welcome. Say, all in all, all in all, if you touch your own conscience..." Fang Jifan continued: "Your Majesty doesn't count."

"Not counting?" Fang Xiaofan was suspicious.

Fang Jifan said: "Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, and there is only heaven. He is a fairy who has gone up to the world, and he is no longer a human being, so he is not."

Fang Jifan sneered in his heart, hehe, you still want to lie to me, you really think I'm an idiot, and you're using your brother as a trick, you think that I, Fang Jifan, have earned my reputation, not me, Fang Jifan, bragging, talking about being a dog leg, you are still young Very much.

A eunuch came rushing towards him: "You two ancestors, hurry up, your majesty is waiting impatiently."

Fang Jifan said conveniently: "Look, look, how wise His Majesty is, he takes care of all kinds of opportunities, and even came to see our brothers and sisters, and he would not waste a moment of time. He put his heart on the soldiers and civilians..."

"Brother..." Fang Xiaofan patted his head: "Stop talking about it, and I'm going to wonder if I was born by my father."

Fang Jifan patted the back of her head lightly: "Like a dog... good girl, she has no shame or skin for her brother, no matter whether His Majesty is present or not, she always recites my emperor's holy words and will give you today, ungrateful guy! "

The two arrived at Fengtian Temple.

Seeing that Liu Jian and others were there, Fang Jifan knew that His Majesty had already heard the news.

The two saluted Emperor Hongzhi.

Emperor Hongzhi looked at the two brothers and sisters with a smile: "Our female champion is here..."

Fang Xiaofan said: "Returning to Your Majesty, the number one scholar is the number one scholar. There is no distinction between men and women. It's not that the courtier's daughter wants to be the number one scholar, it's because other people don't live up to it."

Emperor Hongzhi laughed.

He said: "Look, the Fang family are all such newborn calves who are not afraid of tigers. I really admire them."

Emperor Hongzhi sat down: "Fang Xiaofan."

Fang Xiaofan behaved politely, after all, he grew up in the palace, so he didn't have the slightest bit of timidity. Those who have seen the big world have seen the big world. She said: "The minister is here."

Emperor Hongzhi said: "You have this talent, but I am also thirsty for talents. Now Liu Qing's family is in the cabinet and lacks helpers. I want to ask you, do you want to walk in the cabinet and worship as a member of Zhongshushe?" I have something to say first, although you are young and a girl, once you agree to enter the cabinet, no one will treat you as a girl. Waiting for others, if I don't punish you, I will never forgive you lightly."

Fang Xiaofan said: "But if you do the right thing, is there any reward?"

Also bargained.

Emperor Hongzhi was amused: "Do you have any misunderstandings about me? Is I the kind of person who does not reward me for my merits?"

"But my brother said..."

She was halfway through.

Fang Jifan on the side covered her mouth, and Fang Jifan replied instead of her: "I usually teach my sister that you must do your best to share your majesty's worries. The whole Fang family, loyalty is the foundation, no matter young or old, men or women, they all implement this principle. Yu Zong, Your Majesty should stop asking my sister these questions, no matter how you ask, the Fang family will always answer this!"

Fang Xiaofan felt like he was going to suffocate to death.

When Fang Jifan let go, she panted heavily.

Emperor Hongzhi frowned. Listen, Fang Xiaofan didn't mean that. Of course, since Liu Jian and others were around, he couldn't pursue it. He just looked at Fang Xiaofan kindly: "Is that so?"

"Yes." Fang Xiaofan was helpless.

My brother was too nervous, he always thought he was a three-year-old child, and was afraid that he might say something wrong. I wanted to say it too, but my brother taught me that loyalty should be the foundation.
