Chapter Twenty-Five: Yes

Shixia has a strong personality since he was a child, and he also wants to prove that there is no gap between women and men, so he is about to join the army to continue his father's glory, and even do better than his father, in order to prove that women do not let their eyebrows go.

When she first entered the barracks, she did it, and became a captain in just half a year, but unfortunately, because of the Youkou incident, she was investigated and exposed her identity as a woman.

At that time, Zuo Xiuping, the general of Northern Xinjiang, was also very sorry, but there was no way, there was no precedent for women to join the army, and this was still a crime of bullying the monarch and concealing his gender.

On the way back to Beijing to ask for guilt, the escort team encountered a group of bandits, this group of bandits, is the "locust army" of the net, the leader is the son of the leader of the Youkou who was killed by Shixia, at that time his son happened to take people to other places to have fun, and when he came back, he learned that his father had been killed, so he held a grudge and waited for an opportunity to take revenge.

got the news that Shixia was about to be escorted to Beijing, and he immediately led people to arrange and prepare to intercept Shixia.

At that time, the escort team counted ten summers, and there were only fifteen people. However, there are 100 people on the other side, and the scene of the interception has been carefully arranged.

As soon as Shixia entered the ambush circle, five people were killed by the trap, and then six people were killed by random arrows, and the remaining three escorts were also hacked to death with random knives, leaving only Shixia alone trapped in the prisoner car.

A Ten Summers trapped by a prisoner cart is a lamb to be slaughtered for Youkou, and the next fate of Ten Summers ......

After October learned what happened to his sister Shixia, he kept thinking that if there were no rules like that, his sister would not have been escorted back to Beijing that day to be questioned, and she would not have met bandits and died. Therefore, she wanted to fight in the name of her sister to prove it.

"I want to ask everyone in the room, is my sister at fault?" October yelled at everyone.

"Is it wrong for her to join the army and aspire to serve the country?"

"Does she want to prove herself wrong?"

"Is it wrong for her to fight against her unfair fate as a woman?"

"Is it a merit or a fault for her killing You Kou to avenge the unjust death of more than 1,300 villagers? If so, why did she end up in a prison car?"

October questioned several voices, hoarsely exhausted.

Liu Chu fell silent, his gender was a man, he had never thought about this aspect, and he had never thought that women could also serve the country in the army.

This is caused by a variety of factors such as social structure, social atmosphere, and social environment for a long time, and people have an inherent thinking that women are working at home as female workers and taking care of children.

No man, or man in power, ever wondered whether women could fight or not.

This led to the widespread belief that it was wrong for women to join the army, that women should not join the army, and over time, this became a default law, and no one made it clear, but no one refuted it.

"Xuanyuan Hongyu, take these three down for me!" Empress Jiang's cold voice came.

"The world says that Queen Jiang is a heroine among women, I thought that I should be able to seek a fair one this time, but I didn't expect ......" October could not hide the disappointment in his eyes.

"Xuanyuan Hongyu, don't do it yet!" Empress Jiang shouted.

Xuanyuan Hongyu moved, Liu Chu and Xi Feichen felt a pressure, and they were all ready to do their best.

Off the field, no one noticed that Xie Xianning, who was ranked eighth, moved a few steps forward slightly, looking at the posture, he also had plans to enter the game to help October.

Farther away, Wu Zifang watched for a while, stepped out and retracted several times, and seemed a little hesitant, but he also wanted to help.

"Xuanyuan Hongyu, stop. A voice full of majesty rang out.

Emperor Wei was wearing a dragon robe, and he appeared in the stands at some point, and walked from behind Empress Jiang.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

"Hooray, hooray, hooray!"

Everyone knelt on the ground one after another, shouting long live, but only four people were still standing, one was Liu Chu, one was Xi Feichen, one was October, and finally Queen Jiang, but they bowed slightly.

Yang Xingxiong glanced at it a few times, frowned slightly, and thought that the emperor would come out and defend Liu Chu and them, but he didn't expect the three of them to be so rude, so it would be difficult for him to say anything more.

"Let's all be flat. Emperor Wei Chen Fengxian raised his hand, and everyone got up one after another.

"Seeing that Your Majesty does not kneel, the real number is a great rebellion, Your Majesty, you should first reprimand them with a hundred rods. ”

Emperor Wei's side, followed by Mu Qing, who is now the number one minister today, is Mu Qing who opened his mouth to scold Liu Chu at this time.

"It doesn't matter, since they have grievances, they must have grievances in their hearts, human nature, and when I resolve the grievances for them, they will kneel down willingly. Emperor Wei waved his hand, and he was a little unhappy in his heart, he didn't even speak, so Mu Qing rushed to speak in front of him.

"Your Majesty, the rules cannot be broken, you must kneel when you see you!" Mu Qing knelt on the ground, determined to punish Liu Chu and the others.

The reason why Mu Qing did this, Emperor Wei was slightly frowned, because Mu Qing was humiliated by Liu Zhanguo in court back then, and he was slapped three times on the butt by Liu Zhanguo with a saber scabbard in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, for which Mu Qing has always held a grudge.

As the first powerful minister today, he must have known Liu Chu's identity for a long time, so he wanted to vent his resentment against Liu Zhan Guo on his son Liu Chu.

Mu Qing has a very large pattern, but in some small things, his qi is extremely small. Let's say that he is a villain, and the demeanor he shows is admirable; let's say that he is a villain, and sometimes the villain's behavior is so typical that it makes people despised.

"I said, they don't have to kneel. Emperor Wei frowned.

However, Mu Qing was indifferent, still kneeling there, as if he was determined to get along with His Majesty, and he had to scold the three of them to be satisfied.

Emperor Wei took a deep breath, and secretly thought in his heart, when I strip you of all your power, I will let you go to the Scripture Pavilion to sweep the building, ten times a day, without a trace of dust!

"Recite the offense, rod, ten strokes. "Emperor Wei knew that if he didn't weigh Mu Qing's heart, he was afraid that his plan would be ruined today, so he would wronged those three young people to suffer a little bit of flesh and skin.

"Your Majesty, the grass people can not kneel. Xi Feichen held up a bronze medal and faced the direction of the stands.

"Daoist Ancestor Order?" Mu Qing narrowed his eyes.

"It turns out that you are the descendant of the red beard, and with this Taoist ancestor order, you can indeed avoid kneeling. Emperor Wei nodded.

The Taoist Distant Ancestor Decree is a token given to Taoism by the founding emperor of Chen State, the predecessor of the Great Wei Dynasty.

Mu Qing snorted lightly, one less penalty will be punished less, as long as Liu Chu is punished.

Several forbidden soldiers were about to step forward to deal with Liu Chu and October, only to see October undressing in public, which once again attracted everyone's attention.

However, after undressing in October, a bright yellow dress was revealed on the upper body.

"Death-free royal clothes?" Mu Qing's eyes widened in disbelief.

The death-free royal clothes are special treasures given to meritorious ministers by the current emperor, that is, Emperor Chen Fengxian of Wei, who can avoid death once, and at the same time wear it on the body and do not need to kneel when he sees the emperor.

October is not exactly with a sense of anger and brainlessness to come to ask for justice, she still has a hand, with this death-free royal clothes, at least she will not die.

"Well, you don't have to kneel. Emperor Wei nodded again, and at the same time glanced at Mu Qing with a little smugness.

Mu Qing snorted coldly, no matter what, as long as Liu Chu didn't miss it, as long as he could be punished, it didn't matter if the other two were punished or not.

The soldiers of the forbidden army aimed at Liu Chu, because now they only had to blame him with the rod.

When Liu Chu saw October's death-free king clothes, he was already surprised and couldn't close his mouth, this clothes should be his father Liu Zhanguo's, because, at this moment, he is also wearing a death-free king clothes!

This thing is warm in winter and cool in summer, and it is comfortable to wear, and Liu Chu basically wears it with him all the time.

Death-free king clothes, Emperor Wei gave a total of two, both of which were given to Liu Zhanguo, as for why one of them came to October, Liu Chu guessed that it should be Liu Zhanguo's gratitude for the battle of Xiaofenghe, and Shi Changyun saved his own and the lives of the soldiers, so he gave one of the death-free king clothes to Shi Changyun.

"I'm sorry, I think, I can also not kneel......" Liu Chu unbuttoned his shirt and revealed the death-free king clothes on his body.

Emperor Wei was stunned for a moment, and then laughed.

And Mu Qing on the side, how ugly and ugly his face was, after saying a word to Emperor Wei that he was unwell, he left the scene.

Empress Jiang secretly pinched Emperor Wei's back to remind him to pay attention to his image, and Emperor Wei glanced at Empress Jiang aggrievedly, and immediately stopped smiling and returned to his normal color.

"October, the daughter of Shi Changyun, the former general of the fourth grade, and the sister of the captain Shi Xia, am I not wrong?" Emperor Wei looked at October.

"I beg Your Majesty to give my sister justice, my sister's merits must not be buried! At the same time, I petition that women can also stand in the same hall as men in the temple!"

October bent over, clenched his right hand into a fist, left hand out, raised his hands in motion, and buried his head deep behind his hands.

"I would like to ask a few questions before dealing with you. Emperor Wei did not respond positively to October's request.

"I want to ask, those of you here, who have made third-class military merits, raise your hand and let me see it. Emperor Wei said.

In the audience of tens of thousands plus thousands of forbidden soldiers, as well as dozens of officials and generals, about 50 people raised their hands, and only one person in the audience should be a veteran.

Third-class military merits, you need to kill a total of 300 enemies, or kill two generals of the fifth rank and above in the enemy's army. It can also be mixed, and killing one hundred and five enemies plus killing a general of five rank and above is also a condition for satisfying third-class military merits.

"Okay, then I ask again, those of you who have made second-class military merits, raise your hand. Emperor Wei said again.

This time, less than 20 people raised their hands, and 10 of them were Yang Xingxiong, the general of Kyushu and the general of Eastern Xinjiang.

Second-class military merits, you need to kill a total of 1,000 enemies, or kill ten generals of the enemy's army of five rank and above, or kill one of the opponent's generals. It can also be mixed, for example, beheading the enemy by 5,000 plus killing five generals of the fifth rank and above, which is also a condition for satisfying second-class military merits.

"What about the first-class ones? I thought, I don't need to raise my hand, I remember which ones I remembered. ”

"Ten Summers, killing 1,000 Youkou, including the leader, is it considered a second-class military merit?" Emperor Wei's voice suddenly raised.

The audience was silent, and it was a long time before a loud voice sounded.

"Count!"

Everyone looked at Liu Chu in surprise, but they didn't expect him to answer.

"Count!"

There was another voice, and everyone followed the prestige and found that it was Yang Xingxiong, the general of Eastern Xinjiang, which made everyone even more surprised.

"Count!"

The third voice came from His Majesty.

"Of course, this is a second-class military merit, but just because it is a woman who has made this second-class military feat, I won't reward her?

Emperor Wei took a deep breath and continued: "For Shixia, I am ashamed, there has never been a rule in the laws of Wei that women are not allowed to join the army, but because of the inherent social thinking, this rule that should not exist has become a rule that exists in everyone's heart. ”

"I am ashamed of the women of the world, and I hope that every one of my people, whether male or female, has a heart to serve the country, and every citizen, whether male or female, can fulfill the wish of serving the country. ”

"I hereby send an order to the world, and give the knight Shixia as the lieutenant of the auxiliary country, hereditary!

Emperor Wei Chen Fengxian's voice was loud and loud, causing an uproar, the lieutenant of the auxiliary state, hereditary, not replaced! This means that as long as there are ten families, there will always be this title!

"Because of the sacrifice of ten summers for the country, this title was transferred to October. ”

"Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live!" a group of civil and military ministers spoke one after another.

"Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live!" the people also chanted.

"October, your petition. I'm right!"
