Li Shimin knew that if he didn't give enough price, Wang Haoran would not agree to the imperial court to take over the charity, although as the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, if he wanted to forcibly take over the charity, Wang Haoran was helpless, but it was not worth it to cause estrangement with Wang Haoran. At the same time, the charity's existing network resources, management experience, and reputation among the people can be said to be priceless, and if the imperial court can take over, it can save a lot of effort. After Li Shimin weighed it, he suddenly opened his mind, that is, to keep the original team of the charity in the way of the imperial court, but this is afraid that it will attract gossip, the people of the Tang Dynasty generally believe that women cannot show their heads, and if the imperial court joins the charity and continues to be managed by those women, in a sense, it is equivalent to officially recognizing the social status of women, which should be what many people do not want to see.

"It's a pity that it's some women who are in charge of the charity now, otherwise, after the imperial court takes over the charity, I can still grant them a position......" Li Shimin thought about it and didn't have any other better way, so he simply handed over the problem to Wang Haoran to see what he suggested.

"Your Majesty, it is possible to give those women positions, but not suddenly. However, after the charities made a difference, especially after the completion of the charity schools, the public opinion gradually turned from ridicule to respect. Now, the most difficult period for women to show their heads has passed, and if the court affirms it at this time, presumably the common people will not say much, and then the court will take over the charity and arrange some positions for these women, presumably there will not be much resistance. ”

"And how do you think you can be sure?" Li Shimin said disdainfully, he could see that Wang Haoran said such a lot, and he didn't ask for credit for the group of women in the charity?

"Your Majesty, things in the royal family are often imitated by the people, such as dishes, clothing, etc., and Your Majesty's views on certain things also have the effect of guiding the people. Therefore, if Your Majesty hopes that the people of the Tang Dynasty will not be taboo to let women show their heads, then the more Your Majesty will identify with the unique women of the charity, the more simply the people's concepts will change. Wang Haoran smiled, not feeling embarrassed at all.

"......" Li Shimin understands that he really can't be polite to thick-skinned people. However, although Wang Haoran's purpose is not pure, what he said is not unreasonable, and the actions of the imperial court are indeed like a benchmark. That is to say, if Li Shimin wants to pick up a bargain, he must first recognize the women of the charity, which is not a big problem, after all, those women are also well-known in the capital. As for how to express his approval, Li Shimin felt that it was necessary to discuss it in the court, and if this matter was passed, it would break the common sense that a woman is virtuous if she is not talented, which is really appalling in a patriarchal society. However, the ministers of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China, I am afraid that few will agree to this, the reason why Li Shimin wants to do this, of course, is not only greedy for that little convenience, but the most important thing is that his mentality has changed, and now the Tang Dynasty is changing with each passing day, many people are brain-opening, and it is not uncommon for people to be unconventional, and Li Shimin is the same. It is undeniable that there are indeed many talented people among women, and now there is a shortage of talents in Datang. Women in Datang account for more than half of the total population, and if talents are also selected from them, even if the proportion is not high, the number is still considerable.

"Tomorrow morning, you can also come over to discuss together, and call Qihong too." After thinking about it, Li Shimin said that if you want to promote this matter, you have to strengthen the strength of the support faction, and Wang Haoran is an indispensable force.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid that it's not appropriate." Wang Haoran knew what Li Shimin meant, and proposed: "The courtiers think that it is better to affirm the merits of those women in the charity first, so as to guide the public opinion of the people, and then use the public opinion of the people to influence the concept of the ministers of the DPRK and China, and then discuss the matter of taking over the charity and granting positions to those women, presumably there will be much less resistance." ”

Li Shimin felt that what Wang Haoran said was reasonable, so he accepted this proposal. Three days later, several eunuchs went to Wang, Xie, and Qian respectively with the holy decree to announce the decree, in addition to Wang Haoran's mother Liu Xiaomei was also given the county monarch's wife, Liu Xiaomei, Liu Min, Mrs. Xie, and Mrs. Qian were all given the ninth class merit. In addition, Li Shimin was playful, and thought of the saying of "one family, two generals, three talents and four sons", so he pulled Wang Qihong's wife in to make up the number, and together with the other four ladies, he called the "fifth lady", and gave a plaque to hang, on the book: Charity Five Ladies.

Wang Haoran was not idle, taking advantage of the opportunity of Li Shimin's plaque, he arranged the scene of receiving the reward very grandly, and put on a banquet, in the form of a buffet, anyone can eat at will, so as to expand the influence of this matter. Coupled with his own original prestige, the name of the fifth lady soon became popular, and it was easy to extend the views of female heroes and others praising women in public opinion.

When the public opinion was almost fermented, Li Shimin spread the word that Wang Haoran and Wang Qihong participated in the early dynasty together, and they could already start the next step.

"Enke's first round of screening, I thought that it shouldn't be a big problem to select 200 people first, but Haoran could only reluctantly select 100 people, and I thought that Haoran's requirements were too high, so I checked the examination papers of the 100 people again, and found that this was not the case. In a big country, tens of millions of people can't get together 200 available talents, and the future of Datang is worrying. In fact, Li Shimin was still complaining in his heart about Wang Haoran's screening why he had such high requirements, after he checked those examination papers, he was like a treasure, and felt that all of these people were rare talents, but for the sake of the overall situation, he had to claim that there was a shortage of talents, "A few days ago, Haoran proposed to me to run a wide range of schools, I don't know what you Aiqing thinks?" ”

"Your Majesty, now that the Tang Dynasty is rich, if you can run a wide range of schools, there will definitely be many talents in the future, which is a great feat!" Ma Zhou was pleasantly surprised, he knew the difficulty of the poor people in studying, and he was afraid that the bill would be vetoed, so he hurriedly agreed.

"The opening of the school is indeed a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, but its cost is very large, with the current financial resources of Datang, it must not be achieved overnight, maybe you can first select some areas to open first, and then gradually promote it." Wei Zheng proposed.

The other ministers all expressed their opinions, and none of them had any intention of vetoing, and their main contradiction was only how to unfold. If you think about it carefully, in all dynasties and generations, the court that can best think about the people is generally the group of founding heroes when the country was first founded.
