Chapter 243

Not to mention, Mu Wanqing can't be quarreled by ordinary people. She doesn't follow the usual path, and there are always thousands of rhetoric, and her lips are slippery.

Even if the officials of the Ministry of Rites were mad with anger, they had nothing to do with Mu Wanqing, and could only look to their colleagues for help.

Other officials didn't want Mu Wanqing to win, and they came forward to criticize them for their own interests, and strongly stated that it was impossible for women to participate in the imperial examination.

Who knows, Mu Wanqing said, "I understand, you are all cowards, you know that you will lose in the competition with a woman, so you have to find a way to suppress it, and do everything possible to trap the woman in the backyard, hehe, man."

She didn't think it was exciting enough, so she hummed softly, "A man is also a delicate flower, afraid of wind and rain, who can see the fear after pretending to be, what you can do is not good, you are the best to suppress women..." Note (1)

All the men:  …

Du Shaoxuan couldn't help laughing when he looked at the dishes in the audience. Are you not allowed to hum a song? "I didn't suppress it."

Mu Wanqing nodded with a smile, "Well, you are different from those pretentious coquettish goods."

When she said this, she also deliberately looked at a few men who did not deal with her, for fear that others would not know what they were talking about.

Those officials had dark faces, exuding an air of keeping strangers away.

"Hahaha." Du Shaoxuan was amused, her little appearance was too cute.

The old Shoufu blushed and shouted loudly, "You are humiliating the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty."

Mu Wanqing blinked her eyes and smiled so cutely, "Have you been humiliated? What a fragile delicate flower."

The first assistant has only seen a docile woman who takes her husband as her heaven, and has never seen a rebellious and rebellious person like Mu Wanqing.

"you shut up."

The angrier he got, the sweeter Mu Wanqing's smile became, "Lord Shoufu, you can also hum a song, you can come as you please, as long as I don't insult my ancestors, I won't roll up my sleeves and beat people, women. We should be generous and tolerant, and be more considerate of men's fragile hearts."

She didn't say it was okay, but when she said that Shoufu was not well, how could she look like a woman? It's like a little bastard.

He deeply felt that it was pointless to entangle with Mu Wanqing, and it would be humiliating to win. "Your Majesty, the ruler of Qingping County has lost his honor. Please punish the Emperor."

Mu Wanqing rolled her eyes on the spot, "Tsk tsk tsk, just complain, are you a three-year-old baby? Shy face."

She also made shy face gestures, exaggerated and agile.

The first assistant's qi and blood rolled, and a mouthful of blood spurted out. There was an uproar at the scene, and everyone was stunned. They all looked at Mu Wanqing, showing blame.

The Shoufu's wife was even more anxious, and rushed over to help him wipe his mouth with a handkerchief.

Mu Wanqing looked at this scene as if nothing had happened, her eyes were extremely cold, the first assistant was old, his thoughts were rotten, and he was still selfish and forming a party.

The exclusion she encountered in the capital was largely due to the first assistant.

By the way, when the army of the Du family of Xiliang was fighting bravely with the northern Chu Xiwu, the chief assistant was in the rear to persuade the king to move the capital.

This shit, moving the capital means giving up the people in the capital city. don’t believe that this war will be won. If the king has abandoned the city, will the soldiers at the border still do their best? The consequences could be disastrous.

Therefore, dynasties that have moved their capital since ancient times are extremely rare.

Even if it is a matter of life and death, only the king who died in battle.

This was the real reason why Mu Wanqing looked down on him.

When you are old, you just want to be on the sidelines and keep your power. It is better to retire early and make way for the young.

"Oh my god, I'm scared to death. This guy is still very ill at his age. Why is he still greedy for power and refuses to retire? Do you still want to use iron to die in the position of the first assistant?"

Her words are very mean, but she is clear about love and hate.

Shoufu's face was even more ugly, and the first assistant's wife lost her demeanor angrily and scolded, "You shut up, you vomited blood from my husband angrily, you evil spirit."

Mu Wanqing's face was shocked, she couldn't believe it, how could you make trouble unreasonably, you are ruthless.

"Isn't it? Lord Shoufu, tell me, is it really because you are so small that you vomit blood when you hear a few harsh words?"

She accentuated her tone with the words "little air", the corners of her mouth raised slightly, and she smiled sarcastically.

The first assistant looked at her smile, and his head began to congeal again. He gritted his teeth and squeezed a sentence from his teeth, "No, it's me who is sick."

The air is narrow, can you hear it?

Everyone: ... Is this self-defeating plot they can watch?

Shoufu's wife was angry and anxious, "Husband."

How could he bow his head to a stinky girl? Do you still want his old face? What does this make the officials and concubines present see him?

How will you lead the officials in the future?

Mu Wanqing clearly wanted to step on him!

Mu Wanqing didn't care what others thought, "Listen, Lord Shoufu said it himself, don't put dirty and stinky people on my head. If I hear a half-truth, I'll just stand on the tower and follow the past. passers-by to clarify the truth.”

Seeing her cruel appearance, everyone believed that she could do such a thing.

At that time, her mouth was crooked, and she didn't know how many scandals would be made.

Mu Wanqing paused for a while, half-smiling, "As for what passersby think, I can't control it."

MD, this is clearly ironic, he is a rogue, the first assistant has never met Mu Wanqing so directly, and he has such a generous personality, it is too difficult to deal with.

The more the Queen looked at her, the more shocked she became. Mu Wanqing had such a soft-spoken temperament, and she had no respect.

She couldn't help but said softly, "Your Majesty, it's a bit too much for the Qingping County Lord to treat an old minister like this."

The emperor's expression was indifferent, "This is their unique communication method, others should be less concerned."

He has long been disliked by the first assistant, and he has not touched him for the time being. It is because the time has not yet come, let him occupy this position first.

How to communicate? The Queen's face was shocked, and her heart was full of mixed feelings.

The emperor's preference for Mu Wanqing was obvious, and he didn't even care about the old minister's face.

He... Really just treats Mu Wanqing as a subject? The queen did not believe it.

The Minister of Rites couldn't bear to look directly at the old face of Shoufu, who had been trampled under his feet by Mu Wanqing for decades.

He looked at the subordinates beside him, "Didn't you say that she is a person who cares about the overall situation? You recommended her to be the minister of the household! You are to blame for the current evil."

The Minister of the Household looked sullen, "I said long ago, treat her as an ordinary official, but the adults just don't listen, she dares to hit the faces of the King Yan of Northern Chu and the King of Xiwu Nanyuan."

Compared with those princes, what is the first assistant?

Now and then, in Xiliang, her family was the only one, and she was the big picture.

"She's never afraid of things. You take her low profile as weakness, that's stupid."

He did not dare to interact with Mu Wanqing under pressure, but deep down he admired Mu Wanqing's methods.

In fact, as long as you don't mess with her, it's still pretty easy to get along with.

The Minister of Rites snorted coldly, not believing in evil.

Mu Wanqing has turned to the top, "Your Majesty, I will spread kapok to all parts of the country and create a huge cotton empire, just to let all the people of Daqi realize the freedom to dress, some to wear, and some to wear warm."

She said her thoughts slowly, "The most critical part of this plan is that it requires countless ingenious women to go out of the house and enter the workshop to work, elastic cotton, cotton cleaning, cotton blending, winding cleaning, well-structured, roving and spun yarn, winding and simple, Numerous processes such as twisting, spinning, and spinning require female workers, which are jobs that cannot be replaced by men.”

"This requires the liberation of civilian women from the backyard. How to do it? Of course, the court plays an exemplary role, recruiting more female officials, and calling on civilian women to become female workers."

She turned the corner to open the imperial examination to women.

"Your Majesty, the people have been tortured by war in these years, their families have been destroyed, their wives and children have been separated, and their bodies and minds have been greatly damaged. Now the plan is to appease the people in the shortest possible time and give them a way to live. The post-war reconstruction and recovery work is imminent. ."

"And the kapok plan is currently the lowest cost, the fastest, the most profitable, and the people are the fastest to get started."

She cupped her hands, her expression solemn and serious, without the publicity just now.

"For the livelihood of the world, I invite the emperor to open the door to the imperial examination, and let more people of insight join this plan. Men are very capable, but women also have unique advantages, such as more delicate minds and dexterity. I understand women’s mentality better and develop their unique abilities.”

The words were well-founded, sonorous and powerful, and the whole person shone brightly.

Countless women stared blankly at Mu Wanqing, feeling a huge shock in their hearts.

The emperor tapped on the table, "Understand the woman's mentality?"

Mu Wanqing pondered for a while, "To use the simplest analogy, are men more proficient in the design and color of cotton cloth? Or are women better at it?"

She pointed at the granddaughter of the scholar who was fighting for the imperial examination to be open to women. The woman's eyes were surprisingly bright and her face was flushed, "Of course she is a woman."

Mu Wanqing nodded slightly, "That's right, they know women's preferences well, and they will be closer to women's needs. This is money."

A voice rang out among the officials, "Money is just a trail."

Mu Wanqing didn't go out to find someone, "But it's impossible without money, and it's impossible to do anything without money."

The officials were naturally unwilling to sit still, and they all spoke out to stop him, and the words were fierce. Some even said that if he agreed, he would resign and go back to his hometown.

The emperor was under a lot of pressure and was silent for a while, "This time the meeting is just around the corner, we can only wait for the next time."

Manchu Wenwu breathed a sigh of relief, this was the emperor's plan to delay, and the emperor was not bewitched.

Mu Wanqing pursed her lips. The next time will be three years later. Who knows what will happen?

She has to make this matter real, "Your Majesty, I have a small suggestion, set up a women's special session, let the women who are willing to take part in the examination be selected, and those who pass will participate in the general examination with the men, can they be successful? God's will."

One has two.

"It's important to send a signal to the world."

"Women can become officials in the imperial examinations, and civilian women hurried out of their homes to become female workers. The country needs you, and the court needs you. Let's make a little money together happily."

She also made a small gesture of counting money.

This made the eldest prince amused, "Pfft, sister Qingping is super cute."

He watched the whole process, and his admiration for Mu Wanqing deepened.

The person who dares to fight with the first assistant will win.

His gender awareness at this age is not very clear, he doesn't understand it, and he believes in the strong.

Mu Wanqing swept her gaze, and a flash of light flashed in her mind, "Eldest Prince, are you willing to be the chief examiner?"

The first prince was dumbfounded, "Ah? What?"

Mu Wanqing rolled her eyes slightly, "You come to quiz, you come to test those talented girls, and those who pass the test are all your students."

The eldest prince is only six years old, is there a mistake?

Although he is young, he has a lot of supporters, and many people have invested in advance. At this moment, he is crazy.

This may seem like a child's play, but it is a good time to add gold to the face of the eldest prince and establish prestige.

Although the eldest prince is the only son of the emperor, the hearts of these people will be uneasy for a day without a prince.

The emperor is not very old, and he still has the opportunity to have more children.

By that time, younger princes have a better chance.

Someone stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I think I can give it a try. It can not only train the eldest prince, but also have an explanation with other students."

"Your Majesty, this is also an excellent opportunity to test the knowledge of the first prince. Those women have limited knowledge, and the first prince has learned enough. Let everyone see the style of the prince of this dynasty."

They can all help with the exam questions, as long as the eldest prince stands in front of the stage.

"Your Majesty, no matter which minister asks the question, it seems to inspire the public, and the other students are indignant. It's better to let the eldest prince try it, and treat it as a game. Who would have the nerve to care about like a child?"

These people still despise women, but, for the best interests, they naturally support them.

It is impossible for those women to pass the test. Even if they can pass the test after 10,000 steps, they are still the first prince's team.

Thinking about it this way, it doesn't seem like a loss.

The corners of Mu Wanqing's mouth twitched slightly. Look, there are no permanent enemies, only permanent interests.

As long as it can catch a mouse, it can be a black cat or a white cat.

The emperor gave her a deep look, which was simply a stroke from God.
