"Before the Great Sui, the officials of the imperial court were all recommended and selected, and the peasant merchants had no chance to change their doors at all."

Tang Shuyi looked at Lord Zhao: "But later, the Great Sui adopted the imperial examination system, giving ordinary people the opportunity to jump into the ranks, Lord Zhao, your family is the beneficiary of the imperial examination system." Do you say that the imperial examination is progress? ”

Lord Zhao's brows were knotted, he knew what Tang Shuyi meant, but he still couldn't refute her words, so he said: "It's progress, but this is very different from a woman being an official." ”

Tang Shuyi looked at him and smiled: "What's the difference? The development of man from the tribe to the state, and the slavery system of the state to the present, is all progress. Why is it that women are not progressing as officials? Are women born evil? Or does Lord Zhao think that women will surpass men when they become officials? ”

"Nonsense!" An official with gray hair and beard walked out, and Tang Shuyi knew him, Lord Shangshu Niu of the Ministry of Rites.

I saw him walking forward, looked at Tang Shuyi and said: "There have been no women as officials for thousands of years, because women are shallow and unstrong-minded, and they only have small profits in their eyes. A woman is born weak, how can she be an official? ”

Tang Shuyi looked at him and sneered, "Lord Niu can say such things, and I can only say that you are shallow, and you are a frog at the bottom of the well." Li Qingzhao, Su Hui, Cai Wenji, Ban Zhao, the achievements of these women, Lord Niu may be compared to? ”

"You're sharp-tongued!"

Tang Shuyi: "If you can't say it, just say that I have sharp teeth and a sharp mouth, and you are just like that, Lord Niu." ”

"Dingguo Gong!" Master Niu looked at Xiao Huai angrily and said, "You just look at your wife like this.... So unruly? ”

Xiao Huai looked at him coldly, "Lord Niu, you are from the first product, Lord Tang is the first product, you talk to her like this, who doesn't know the etiquette?" ”

These words made Lord Niu tremble with anger, and then Qi Liangsheng stood up and said: "Whether a woman can be an official or an emperor is still a matter of knowledge. If Lord Tang is extremely knowledgeable, why can't he be the emperor? ”

"Okay," Lord Zhao looked at Tang Shuyi and said, "Then the official will be examined." ”

Tang Shuyi: "Please speak." ”

"Jin Wuping Wu was defeated by arbitrariness, and Fu Jian and Jin died with arbitrariness; Qi Huan is a full-time manager and hegemon, and Yan Xu is a full-time son and loses, the same thing but the difference in success, why not? ”

As soon as Lord Zhao's question came out, the officials present couldn't help but take a breath, this is a question that stumps many students, even if they answer it now, they may not be able to answer it very well.

Many people looked at Tang Shuyi's gaze, and began to gloat a little, a woman should be a husband and a child at home, how can she come out to be an official?

Here, Tang Shuyi didn't seem to feel everyone's gaze, lowered her eyes and began to ponder, and after a while she said: "The rebellion of the Wu State, Emperor Wu of Jin planned and commanded alone, planned and commanded properly, judged the situation, and finally pacified the war, which is called centralization rather than arbitrariness. But when Fu Jian was fighting for Jin, he was stubborn and self-serving, regardless of the battle situation, and finally failed, he was the ...... of arbitrariness."

Tang Shuyi spoke for a quarter of an hour before finishing, and Li Jingyi, who was sitting on it, couldn't wait to take notes with a pen, even the officials present had to admit that Tang Shuyi's "strategy" was very wonderful.

Lord Zhao and Lord Niu and the like, but their faces are very unpleasant. In their opinion, Tang Shuyi, as a woman, should not come out to show off even if she is talented and learned. A woman should be married and raised at home.

"What is mind cultivation?" Lord Zhao asked again.

Tang Shuyi looked at him and smiled, "To cultivate the mind, you must first ask the heart, and then cultivate yourself." There will always be ups and downs in life, and at this time there will be complaints and indulge in sadness, but this is a very easy thing. The most important thing to do at this time is to ask yourself why you are so ....."

She stood in front of the hundred officials and calmly explained her understanding of mind cultivation. Even if Zhao and others stubbornly feel that a woman is virtuous if she is not talented, she has to admit that she spoke wonderfully.

In the end, I listened to her say: "Those who know themselves are wise, those who win are brave, those who are self-violent give up, and those who are self-reliant become successful, and those who are strong in their hearts are fearless." Although I, Tang Shuyi, have not yet reached the point of being fearless, I am not afraid of anything for the sake of being an official and an emperor. ”

In the last sentence, she said sonorously and forcefully, and at the same time looked at Lord Zhao indifferently. Lord Zhao's gaze was a little evasive, he snorted heavily, and said, "Not all women are like you. ”

Tang Shuyi: "Not all men are as familiar with poetry and books as Lord Zhao, and they can enter the imperial examination as an official." ”

Lord Zhao stiffened his face and stopped talking, and Li Jingyi, who was sitting on it, laughed, "Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think of my teacher's knowledge?" ”

The ministers still couldn't accept a woman as the emperor's teacher for a while, so no one answered the emperor's words for a while. At this time, a voice sounded, "Lord Tang is very knowledgeable. ”

When everyone heard this voice, they were speechless. Dingguo Gong, going to Kyoto is spreading that you are afraid of the inside, so you can't restrain yourself.

"Tang Da is a talented person with quick thinking and a chapter of exports, which can be called a great talent." Qi Liangsheng's voice also sounded.

Xiao Huai turned his head and glanced at him lightly, and suddenly felt that Qi Liangsheng seemed to be very different from his wife!

"In that case, my master deserves to be the emperor." Li Jingyi's voice was full of joy, and then he said: "If it's okay, let's disperse." ”

He got up and left, and the ministers saluted and departed one after another. Tang Shuyi and Xiao Huai walked together, and after a while, Tang Shubai walked to the two of them, and Qi Liangsheng followed.

Tang Shubai looked at Tang Shuyi and said, "My father reprimanded me yesterday, saying that I am not as good as you. The Tang family's glorious lintel actually relied on his daughter. ”

Tang Shuyi: "........"

What can she say.

Tang Shubai said again: "You go home in a while, the old man is looking forward to your return." ”

Tang Shuyi patted his arm, "I'll try to give you a few kind words." ”

Tang Shubai was speechless, then looked at Xiao Huai and said, "Think about it carefully, your life is not easy." ”

Xiao Huai glanced at him, "I'm enjoying it." ”

Tang Shuyi laughed, Tang Shubai sighed, pulled Qi Liangsheng and said, "Let's go, let's drink and borrow wine to kill our sorrows." ”

Tang Shubai pulled people away, and Xiao Huai stood behind and looked at Qi Liangsheng's back deeply. At this time, Tang Shuyi patted him, "Let's go!" ”

Xiao Huai hummed, and the husband and wife went home together. And it didn't take long for Tang Shuyi to be named the emperor's teacher, and it spread all over the capital.

There are mixed reviews about this matter, and even some women feel that Tang Shuyi is too ostentatious, even if she is talented and learned, she should not show her head like this, let alone become an official in the court.

The name of Xiao Huai, the prince of the country, is considered to be solid this time.
