Chapter 7 Osmanthus

The Jiao family stood up in shock, only Liu Yuting was cold and motionless.

Jiao Qingyun was the old fritter who had been in the court for so many years, but he was the first to restrain his emotions and pretend to be calm. She looked at the sudden pouring rain outside the house, wiped the sweat on her head, and sighed: "Xiaoliu, don't say anything like this again." ”

Thunder and lightning flashed outside; Inside the house, Liu Yuting looked indifferent.

Seeing this, the old woman shook her head helplessly: "I want to know······ Why do you say that? ”

Liu Yuting also shook his head slightly, and said seriously: "Most of the people in high positions in the court are still men. ”

Jiao Qingyun couldn't help frowning and said, "What's the matter? ”

"Heh," Liu Yuting sneered, "A hundred years is not short, and it is not long to say long." Although there are many women in the DPRK and China, a hundred years is not enough time for more talented women to grow up, so they can only be made up by numbers. In this way, although the woman is ostensibly in charge of the situation, in fact it is at the mercy of the man—which is more dangerous than I thought at the time. Don't forget, there is also a Qianzongyue in the royal family who grew up dressed as a man. ”

"I don't understand," Jiao Qingyun shook his head slightly, "I don't understand why I should be so hostile to a royal child······

"Because the first emperor was a man." Liu Yuting interrupted, "Coupled with the internal chaos in the neighboring Great Zhou, many bachelors from the neighboring countries have been absorbed by my Daqian, and there must be more than one minister in the DPRK who advocates male power. They may not have held back, and they don't seem to complain about women taking power, but their interests have been hurt by this······ Once Qian Zongyue grasped this, he would not lack powerful followers. ”

Jiao Qingyun fell silent. After a long time, she asked a little unwillingly: "How do you know that the prince will definitely rebel?" ”

"The world is two words, one power and one profit." Liu Yuting sneered.

Jiao Qingyun pursed his lips, "I don't understand." ”

"Jiao Gong, it's not that you don't understand. In the end, it's just that you're not reconciled. Liu Yuting pulled out a faint smile and said sarcastically.

Jiao Qingyun couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

It's true that she deceived herself.

In fact, Liu Yuting saw clearly that Jiao Qingyun, like most female officials in the court, always regarded women as a vulnerable group and considered women everywhere, but forgot about men and the original intention of equality between men and women pursued by Empress Qianliu.

Women are strong and men are weak, which is also a kind of inequality.

After a while, Jiao Qingyun smiled bitterly and said, "Xiaoliu, Xiaoliu, your mouth is still the same as before. It's just that in this court, if people are too upright, I am afraid that they will suffer losses in the future. ”

Although he had just been scolded by Liu Yuting, Jiao Qingyun said it very sincerely.

Liu Yuting was silent for a moment and responded.

This rain came in a hurry, and it went in a hurry. Liu Yuting just came to give the old woman a wake-up call, so she and Jiao Heng didn't stay in Jiao Qingyun's mansion for too long, and as soon as the rain stopped, the two said goodbye to Jiao Qingyun.

The fragrance of flowers after the rain turned out to be even sweeter, Liu Yuting walked quietly on the avenue, followed by the speechless Jiao Heng.

The aroma of osmanthus is sweet and intoxicating, and Liu Yuting seems to be drunk too.

"Hahaha, Pavilion girl, the osmanthus in the capital is intoxicating." In a half-truth, Liu Yuting heard the man say.

"Your taste······ Scold. She heard her own immature milk voice in a trance.

“······ Damn, what's wrong with my taste! Hey, let me tell you, when you get to the capital, you must buy a house with a laurel tree, preferably an old tree······ Oh, forget it, I'll just leave you a house. The man pinched his chin and said, "Go back and take the time to see for yourself." ”

"Oh, don't be deceived, buy a murderous house." She sneered faintly.

"Huh?" The man was amused, and scolded with a smile, "You little conscienceless, you still expect me to be good!" ”

"Huh."

Liu Yuting was just walking on the road in a daze, the dusty memory was opened, and the man was as if it was just yesterday.

On the side, seeing that the girl was speechless for a long time, Jiao Heng thought about it, and finally said softly: "Back then······ In Jiao's house, thank you very much. ”。

"Huh?" Liu Yuting woke up from his memories and said lightly, "The matter of the Jiao family is a favor I owe you, you just forgot." ”

Gift? Jiao Heng was stunned again.
