Chapter 220: Can a woman be an official?

Long Zhengning, who knew what Long Yuanxiu meant, immediately followed him directly while he took two steps back.

I saw that Long Zhengning also held the admonition card in his hand, and bowed to the emperor, "Father Qi, this fan is also known to the sons." ”

I didn't expect that because of Zhuang Mingyue, the emperor who would pull the three princes in, looked at Long Zhengning, who was usually taciturn, but at this moment, because of Zhuang Mingyue, he stood up in front of all the ministers to defend this Zhuang Mingyue, and he couldn't help but feel a little weird.

And Long Zhengning, who could guess the emperor's thoughts, did not deliberately help Zhuang Mingyue explain and defend in a hurry, but told him about something that he suddenly had an epiphany after seeing a spectacle a few days ago.

After Long Zhengning finished narrating the source and process of the fan, the emperor slowly spoke: "In other words, this fan is actually the reason why it can really blow the wind, is it from your hands?" ”

I know that only by doing my best to pull Zhuang Mingyue out of these so-called demons and monsters can I help her explain it clearly, so that she can be cleared from Long Yaoyang's conspiracy.

"Exactly, my father also knows that Erchen has been quite interested in Luban's technique recently, and many of this Luban's technique are unacceptable, so this so-called fan that can call the wind and rain is not a monster, but just a son's feeling from Luban's technique."

The emperor who heard this was indeed convinced.

And Long Yaoyang, who was on the side, saw that the suspicion on the emperor's face had faded, and after seeing that he was about to turn this matter into a small matter, he hurriedly admonished again: "Big brother, why is this, if it is a fan made by your Luban technique, why do you want to give it to that demon girl?" ”

Long Zhengning, who was refuted, glared at Long Yaoyang slightly, but saw that the other party was looking back at him with a triumphant look.

"The fourth brother should also know that we are the princes, and it is harmless to be a little interested in Lu Ban's technique on weekdays, but if everyone knows, this fan is what I call it. The words are terrifying, and the rumors of a "carpenter prince" are afraid that it will damage the royal face. ”

Long Yaoyang, who never thought that Long Zhengning would be able to dissolve all his rhetoric in such a short period of time, looked at Long Zhengning's triumphant gaze, and it also became extremely gloomy.

And when he saw that the emperor's opinion on Zhuang Mingyue was no longer so serious, Long Yuanxiu, who had already retreated, stepped forward again.

"Father, son, I still have something to say."

"Say." The emperor, who was sitting on the high platform, looked at his three sons with different personalities, and there was a little obscure look in his eyes.

I saw that Long Yuanxiu was neither humble nor arrogant and said again: "Father Qiqi, this Zhuang Mingyue opened the Egret Academy in the people, and made a lot of efforts to recruit talents for Tiansheng, and made a lot of contributions. ”

"And the credit for recruiting talents, as well as many objects that can be said to have a changing impact on Tiansheng, are all the credit of this Zhuang Mingyue. If the father punished Zhuang Mingyue just because of these unverifiable gossip, I am afraid it would hurt the hearts of such talents. ”

The emperor who heard this,

He didn't make a sound for a while, but sat quietly on the dragon chair, and after a while, he slowly said in a voice: "If this is the case, then what does the emperor mean?" ”

Long Yuanxiu, who was being asked, was overjoyed in his heart, but he made a look of embarrassment on his face, "This...... Erchen thought that such talents who had contributed to Tiansheng should be included in the court. ”

As soon as Long Yuanxiu's words fell, the entire court, which was still extremely quiet, suddenly seemed to have exploded.

Among them, Long Yaoyang was the mainstay, and he directly turned around and pointed at Long Yuanxiu and reprimanded: "How can a demon girl let her enter the court as an official?!" What is the purpose of your words? ”

Long Yuanxiu, who was reprimanded, did not pay attention to him, but looked at Long Yaoyang with a waste-like gaze, and then looked at the emperor on the dragon chair again.

"Father, this time a woman has become an official in the court, which is not unprecedented. Erchen once read in the history books that the minister named Xuanji was a woman. And the contribution made by this person above the dynasty will go down in history. ”

Long Yaoyang, who was not convinced, jumped out again, "That Xuanji is the daughter of a loyal minister, naturally it is different, this Zhuang Mingyue is just a deep lady from a small family, how can He De enter the palace as an official?!" ”

Long Yuanxiu, who was refuted one after another, narrowed his eyes slightly, and then stared at Long Yaoyang who was jumping in front of him without squinting, "It seems that the fourth brother's understanding of this Miss Zhuang is all based on unrealistic rumors." If the fourth brother went to investigate, he would know that this Zhuang Mingyue was not only a smart person, but also the dean of the Egret Academy. ”

In fact, Long Yuanxiu had already said this just now, but Long Yaoyang was bent on disposing of Zhuang Mingyue, so he didn't listen to what he just said.

It is precisely because of this that now that he refutes it like this, it makes Long Yaoyang's slander against Zhuang Mingyue just now seem a little false.

Long Yaoyang, who understood that he couldn't talk about Long Yuanxiu at all, no longer continued to argue with him, but directly turned around and saluted the emperor, "Father! This matter must not be agreed, this woman should stay at home with her husband and children, and she has never heard of entering the court and entering the court, and it is too absurd! ”

After listening to Long Yaoyang's words, the emperor still remained silent, so that the people below who were arguing couldn't tell what he was thinking for a while.

After a long time, the emperor slowly looked at the prime minister and asked, "Prime minister, do you think it is appropriate or inappropriate to let Zhuang Mingyue enter the court as an official?" ”

The prime minister who was asked did not directly answer whether it was suitable or not. After pondering for a while, he spoke: "Back to Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that this matter is not okay." ”

When the emperor heard this answer, he couldn't help but shake his head, "The prime minister's words, aren't you talking to me?" ”

I saw the prime minister stroking his beard and continuing to speak: "No, what the old minister means is that some of the ministers think it is inappropriate this time, and some of them think it is inappropriate, then it means that this matter can be and cannot be." And since it has been mentioned today, let Zhuang Mingyue enter the court as an official, it is better to take this opportunity to directly let everyone discuss the court, so that the conclusion can also convince everyone. ”

After listening to the prime minister's words, the emperor, no

nodded in agreement, "This method is not impossible, since the prime minister has proposed to discuss the court, then I will come to the court to pay tribute today." ”

With a wave of the emperor's sleeves, the ministers who were standing facing the emperor instantly turned into a situation of looking at each other.

The prime minister stood at the foot of the steps of the dragon chair, looked at the crowd and shouted: "Today's court is arguing, can a woman enter the court as an official?" ”

As the prime minister put forward the debate point of Lunli, a group of people led by Long Yaoyang, who were not allowed to enter the court as officials, jumped out first.

"Since ancient times, there have only been men in the court, and the mystery is indeed a woman, but her father is the prime minister, and there is only this only daughter in the family, so it is not incomprehensible to become an official in the court. But after this mystery, I have never heard of a woman with such talent who can enter the court as an official! ”

After the other party finished speaking, Long Yuanxiu did not wait for the official behind him to stand up and refute, but took two steps forward, "This is a bad statement, since ancient times, there have not been many women who have read and write, but all women who have the opportunity to read and write are talented people." In ancient times, there was a mysterious opportunity to enter the court as an official, and there were even Li Qingyun's generation of writers, and there were even many talented women. ”

As soon as Long Yuanxiu's words were finished, he was refuted by a minister, "Even so, what does that mean?" These women who have never read and write, after all, can only be confined to their husbands and children in the house. ”

Long Yuanxiu didn't care about this, but took a step back.

Seeing that Long Yuanxiu took a step back, the minister standing behind him greeted him, "Lord Cai's words are a little too decisive, this woman can only be confined to the mansion to teach her husband and children, it is too sure." ”

"As His Royal Highness said, the talented women recorded in this history book all have such talents because they are literate. But as we all know, today's women have been confined to the family since they were young, where can they have the opportunity to read and write, and the talent of the court cannot be revealed, which is naturally normal. ”

"Since this is the case, then we should abide by the rules of this old ancestor!"

"Lord Wang, don't be so excited, the old minister thinks that this is ......"

…………

No matter where it is, whenever the other party puts forward a new proposal, it will be directly blocked by the other party in an instant, and this court ceremony has lasted for two pillars of incense.

After the emperor on the dragon chair looked a little impatient, Long Yuanxiu stood up from the crowd.

Directly admonished the emperor: "Father, the sons and daughters think that the court has been discussing etiquette for so long, and you feel that you can't get the ministers, but you just think that women have never read and read, and even if they have the talents of the court, they can't show it." ”

Long Yaoyang, who didn't know what Long Yuanxiu wanted to say, had to look at his calm expression and be anxious.

Long Yuanxiu, who was not slow, "Since this is the case, then why don't you let Zhuang Mingyue enter the court as an official?" This girl is literate and literate, and she is even the dean of the Egret Academy, and the reputation of the Egret Academy must be known to you. If Zhuang Mingyue was really a virtuous and incompetent person, then how could the people of Egret Academy agree to let Zhuang Mingyue be the dean of this academy? ”
