After the apocalypse dealt with the affairs of the Military Affairs Academy, he came to Kunning Palace in a hurry to get ready to get over the mahjong addiction, thinking that Kunning Palace was already full of people, but who knew that after entering, he found that it was quiet inside. Saying quiet does not mean that there is no one inside, on the contrary, there are still more people, but they don't speak, and everyone salutes when they see the apocalypse coming, so they have a little voice.

Seeing that everyone was standing in line, Tianqi asked the queen in surprise: "Is the queen training in the palace for military parades?" ”

The queen smiled: "What's the matter, it's almost done anyway, how about the emperor and the concubine go into the house to listen to the concubine slowly talk about it?" ”

Tianqi nodded and went into the room with the queen and sat down and asked, "Why doesn't such a good queen play mahjong, isn't this a good spring?" ”

The queen sat next to the apocalypse and replied: "The concubines have summoned everyone, and when I heard that the emperor was dealing with things, I chatted with the people around me, who knew that chatting and chatting would talk about things, and there was no way but to wait for the emperor while dealing with things first." After speaking, I will talk about the ins and outs in detail.

It turned out that the queen began to wait for the apocalypse when everyone came, and remembered the matter of Princess Ningde yesterday and asked these people who would do business, and after careful questioning, I learned that except for Zhang Chunying's family who had opened a restaurant in Sichuan, and Feng Siqin's family who had opened a gold and silver jewelry shop in Nanjing, everyone else did not understand business. Seeing that the queen asked strangely, everyone asked the queen what her intentions were, and the queen told her about Princess Ningde and Chen Mingzhu yesterday, and by the way, she said that the apocalypse was going to find someone to learn to do business, and then divided the female guest department in the three stores and asked the palace maids to serve the female guests.

The queen didn't care about this, but the palace maids waiting around were moved. Originally, when the Apocalypse gave away 7 million shares to the palace people a while ago, the female officials in the palace and the eunuchs with positions and money paid for them, and it was said that they would be able to share the dividends immediately, which made the palace ladies envious. Later, the apocalypse asked people to elect eunuchs to prepare to go to the jewelry shops, restaurants, and pharmacies outside the imperial city to help. Now as soon as they heard that they were going to set up female guest departments in the three shops, the palace maids knew that their opportunity had come, and it was inconvenient for them to talk about it, so they begged the female officials or eunuchs who usually got along well with heads and faces to probe the situation.

At first, the queen patiently explained one by one, but later she saw more and more questions, and then looked at the burning eyes of the palace maids around her, and she understood everything. Seeing that the time was still early, he simply held a job fair on the spot, as long as the age is up or close to the age of twenty-two, those who are willing to leave the palace and return to their hometown can sign up. Originally, Zhang Chunying and Feng Siqin knew how to do business, and the two of them should come out to manage people, but because they were both pregnant, it was inconvenient, so the queen appointed Tu Xuanzhi and Liang Xuanzhi from other candidates to help Chunying and Siqin manage them temporarily, and then take care of them personally when it was convenient for the two of them in the future.

Those who are willing to learn medicine and sell medicine are naturally managed and taught by Chen Mingzhu and Chen Xuanzhi, but the queen has specially stipulated one thing, that is, all palace maids who are willing to study and go to the women's guest department to do business are no longer allowed to live in the inner palace and must move to the Chonghua Palace next to Dong'an Gate to live and study intensively. One is to facilitate going out of the palace to do things, and the other is to avoid affecting other palace maids. Originally, this matter was aimed at the palace maids who were old enough to go out of the palace and go home to marry, and then everyone knew that this was true, so they came forward to sign up in different places, and those who were willing to do jewelry and clothes and food business looked for Tu Xuanzhi and Liang Xuanzhi, and those who were willing to study medicine and sell medicine asked Chen Xuanzhi to sign up.

The last time the palace maids were cleaned up, there were more than 2,600 people who were able to leave the palace, but only more than 200 people went out at that time, and the remaining 2,000 people stayed in the palace. Now they were given the opportunity to learn their skills and allowed the palace maids, who were close to twenty-two years old, to join, but in the end, only two hundred people signed up. But if you think about it carefully, it's normal, people over the age of thirty are basically reluctant to leave, even if they go out, who can they marry? The young girl is not eligible to sign up, and she has just entered the palace and is stupid and doesn't know anything, and some people are still shocked by the magnificence and security of the palace, and it is estimated that it will take a while to calm down.

After listening to the queen's words, Tianqi's heart was a little blocked, thinking of more than 2,000 people who had no children, no daughters and no support for the rest of their lives, and their hearts were very unpleasant. At this time, Sanlang came in and said: "The emperor, Niangniang, everyone is gone, and the names have been recorded, how long will you come out to play mahjong?" How about setting up a few tables in the corridor today when the weather is nice? ”

Apocalypse thought for a moment and said, "Okay, let's go out and ask something by the way." ”

When I got outside, everyone had already set up the table and was waiting for the apocalypse and the queen with a smile, and the apocalypse asked everyone to sit down and asked, "You twelve were originally palace maids, I want to ask you if you are willing to enter the palace or not very much before entering the palace?" It's okay not to say it, but to tell the truth. ”

Zhou Qing Zhou Xuanzhi first said: "Of course I am willing, I used to hear that I was very scared to enter the palace as a palace maid, that was because the conditions were good at that time, I could live anywhere, and I couldn't go home when I got to the palace, so I was afraid." Now that there are disasters everywhere outside, it is not easy to enter the palace to have food and clothing, so now they are willing to enter the palace. ”

Tianqi nodded and said: "Now there are more than 2,000 people in the palace who are over twenty-two years old and do not want to leave the palace, I think that they will be alone in the palace for a lifetime, my heart is very uncomfortable, do you have any good solutions?" ”

Sanlang said: "Yes, it sounds strange and uncomfortable, but it doesn't seem that there is any good way, so you can't drive them away, right?" Wouldn't they be more pitiful then? ”

Chunying said in a low voice: "If the concubines and others hadn't met the queen mother and the emperor, it would probably be like this, and it would be sad to think about it." ”

After a while, Feng Siqin said: "If the emperor really wants to feel better, the concubine has a good way." ”

Apocalypse said happily, "What's the best way?" Let's hear about it. ”

The queen also smiled: "It's really worthy of being a female Zhuge to come up with a way so quickly." ”

Feng Siqin said with a smile: "Don't worry, don't worry, don't boast about the queen's mother, the concubine actually thought of the emperor's words before she came up with this solution." ”

Apocalypse asked in amazement, "What do you think of me?" ”

Feng Siqin said: "The concubine remembers that once the emperor said that it was cruel for a woman to bind her feet, and when the time came, she had to issue an edict prohibiting girls from binding her feet, and even if she wanted to bind, she had to wait until she was eighteen years old to decide whether to bind or not. The concubine asked the emperor why, the emperor said that men and women are actually equal, and now many things are unequal to women, and we should find a way to awaken the equality consciousness of women all over the world, I don't know if the emperor still remembers? ”

Tianqi thought for a while and said, "You mean to let these two thousand palace maids do these things?" ”

Feng Siqin said: "Yes, the emperor wants to make women and men gradually equal, there are some things that only women are suitable to do, and these women must have a certain amount of power and have to be free." Generally, a married woman is too busy to compete with her husband's concubines and concubines at home, so where is she free to help the emperor fulfill her wishes? These palace maids who are old and have no family drag are suitable for these things, but the emperor has to give them some status and power. ”

Apocalypse slapped the table and said, "Great idea! I set up a women's federation in all provinces and counties, and the palace ladies who returned to their hometowns to marry after learning their skills were the organizers and managers of the local women's federations. Once they enjoy their rights, they must fulfill their obligations, that is, they must do their best to help the court in everything related to the promotion of equality between men and women in the future. ”

The queen said at this time: "Your Majesty, the general president of the All-China Women's Federation should be the concubine, and the concubine usually has nothing to do, and she is very interested in the emperor's idea." ”

Tianqi said: "Okay, the queen is the president, Siqin's plan can't be idle, just be a vice president, this equality between men and women is done well, and the women of the whole country will live happily for a long time, so that the babies will be born more and healthier." ”

Sanlang said strangely: "Does this happy mood have anything to do with the health of the baby?" ”

Apocalypse touched Sanlang's head and said, "What stupid! Mother and son are connected, can the doll born when the mother is unhappy be happy? Can a person be physically healthy if he is unhappy and happy every day? ”
