The barrage was full of dogheads and hahaha, which was very joyful.

Ji Xiwan smiled and continued, "There has always been only a reason for a man to have three wives and four concubines, and Shangguan Wan'er just likes a few people in stages, so she will be labeled as promiscuous, in the final analysis, it is because feudal society is still a patriarchal society after all." Even though she was powerful in the world at that time and had the power that men all looked up to, she still had to be caught by men and infinitely magnified and smeared. ”

Of course, not all of them are condemned, and some people use her as a springboard to gain more power through her favor. For example, Wu Sansi in the later period, with the help of Wan'er, leaned towards the government and the opposition, flying high, and was in the limelight. However, even so, with the help of Shangguan Wan'er's power, in that feudal society, Shangguan Wan'er does not depend on men to survive, and can even pave the way for the man she loves, why can't this reflect her independence and equality? ”

She despises etiquette and gets rid of the shackles of inequality between men and women, and in her own right, she is already a sober and independent heroine. It can be said that her ability may be admirable now, let alone in that feudal society where gender alone is subject to many obstacles. ”

Shangguan Wan'er looked at Ji Xi in the light curtain, and a smile gradually rose on her lips.

The future generations are so ...... Is it open?

Ji Xi's words simply pierced her heart, the day she gave up her children's love and chose power, her heart was not very firm, she was shaken for a long time, and she even wanted to turn back several times, making this decision was extremely difficult, and her mother Zheng even persuaded her.

However, in the end, she gave up her husband and godson and chose the path of being an official and worshipping the prime minister.

If Ji Xi had been by her side at that time and said this, she might not have made this decision so difficult in the first place. Because now that she has come to this point under one person, she does not regret it at all, on the contrary, she is very glad that she made this decision.

When she was young, her family fell into slavery, and those days of being bullied made her extremely eager for power, only if she had the power, she would not be so swordsmany, and now, she has come to this position, and love can only be ranked second.

Ji Xi's words made her feel a little happy, yes, why can a man have three wives and four concubines, and she can't have a few confidants? At this moment, she had a few feelings of wanting to see this little girl, and she was looking forward to the future world even more, it seems that in that world, the status of women is even higher than it is now.

And she should work harder.

As for Wu Sansi, Shangguan Wan'er smiled, in the future, she can be pampered enough to use her power to pave the way for him, it doesn't mean that she can now, use herself to reach the pinnacle of power, and see if she can fight her now. It's just that the empress's nephew can't move yet.

Wu Zetian's new women's policy has set off a wave of enthusiasm in the country, although before, after Wu Zetian ascended the throne, there was a faint meaning to improve the status of women, but her energy was mainly in suppressing the anti-ministers, sitting firmly in the position of the empress, so fanfare to implement the new policy, it is the first time.

The empress's accession to the throne has inspired many women to demand the same status as men, and the women's new policy is tantamount to hitting the heart and winning the support of many people.

Of course, there are also many who oppose it.

The pedantic and upright old minister knelt on the ground at the gate of the Taiji Palace, even in the hot summer, it did not make them have any intention of retreating, and even, because Wu Zetian did not come out to see them for a long time, there was a faint tendency to kneel more and more.

The sun was shining, the sky was shining, and the scorching sun made the old ministers sweaty and pale, and they still stubbornly knelt in front of the palace, as if the scorching sun could show their determination even more.

"Since ancient times, where is there a reason for women to lead the army! Even if a woman can be an official, she must not participate in the scientific examination with a man, this is simply nonsense! ”

"The imperial examination is a subset of the classics and history, and the person with the highest level of learning must be able to come out on top, and since the five dynasties, women as officials have passed the assessment of the palace's qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, and can become female officials who manage the affairs of the palace. Ministers are against! ”

"The minister is against! Women are born weak and can't go into battle to kill the enemy, not to mention that men and women are different, how can they stay in the barracks together! ”

"A girls' school is not advisable either! If both men and women have to study, then who will raise silkworms and reeling silk, agriculture will not be able to develop, and it will hurt the foundation of the country! What's more, if a woman is pregnant and gives birth to a child, it is not suitable to continue studying, and concentrating on her husband and children is fundamental! ”

……

Along with the scorching sun, there is also the fierce opposition of these old ministers!

Even if some fainted on the spot because of old age and frailty, after waking up, they had to kneel again, and the intensity was no less intense than after Wu Zetian ascended the throne.

But even so, in the Taiji Palace, Wu Zetian didn't even send anyone to respond, and he didn't even have such a polite word as the eunuch asking him back.

The sun gradually moved westward, and before you knew it, it was noon.

In the Taiji Palace, Wu Zetian finally dealt with the government affairs of the day, because Shangguan Wan'er was sent out to take charge of the new political affairs, she was much busier here. After a long time, the empress was obviously a little tired, she raised her head, and the eunuch behind her went up and pinched her shoulders with great eyes.

"Is the one out there gone?"

She asked.

"Back to Your Majesty, I haven't listened to your orders, and now I'm still kneeling outside."

Wu Zetian smiled, "At dusk, if they still want to kneel, they will send the few coffins they used to come, and they will die directly, but it's not just talking." ”

The little eunuch was about to respond, when suddenly, a voice came from outside, "Your Majesty! Shangguan Zhaorong came with a group of women! He also knelt outside the temple with the group of ministers! ”

Wan'er? Wu Zetian frowned, a little stunned.

Outside the temple.

Headed by Shangguan Wan'er, a group of female officials and princesses knelt outside the palace, Shangguan Wan'er, Princess Taiping, Princess Guangping, third-grade female officials, and fourth-grade female inspectors...... There were even a few ladies who were in the order of the order, and they followed behind Shangguan Wan'er, kneeling with the group of old ministers in the posture of the Chu River and Han Realm.

There were dozens of people, which made the originally somewhat exhausted pedantic ministers instantly refreshed. At first, they thought that Shangguan Wan'er was bringing someone to arrest them, but when they saw Shangguan Wan'er and the others also kneeling on the ground and didn't say a word, they were puzzled in their hearts.

"Shangguan Wan'er, what are you doing here!" Finally, someone couldn't help but ask.
