Chapter 730 Finale

Xiao Yan talked about what Daya mentioned to him.

"...We've finally come this far. It would be a shame if all our efforts were to be wasted because of the Queen's incident."

"Just tell me what you want to do." The emperor didn't beat around the bush.

He's really tired these days.

"Your Majesty, you must let the world know that although the Empress may not interfere in politics in the future, women are still allowed to participate in politics. This is what you insisted on."

"The next edict?"

"I don't think it's enough."

"You can't ask me to shout at the top of my lungs, 'I haven't changed my mind, I'll continue playing music,'" the emperor rolled his eyes at Xiao Yan.

"In fact, we only need something more powerful to cover up this matter. It will also help reduce the attention and impact on the Empress and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"Hurry up and tell me."

"Your Majesty, could you please issue a decree allowing women to inherit the family business?"

Emperor:?!

"You're so bold!"

"Originally, we were going to push this far. However, something unexpected has happened, and a strong statement from the Emperor is necessary to stabilize the situation."

Xiao Yan paused and continued, "The Emperor favors Princess Yuanyi. If this is the case, he can give her more."

The emperor couldn't help himself when he mentioned his beloved little daughter.

"It's not that I'm partial, it's just that Yuan Yi is so considerate..."

Xiao Yan patiently listened to the emperor praising his daughter for a quarter of an hour.

"If she becomes an empress in the future and marries a prince, the world will still belong to the Liu family." Xiao Yan said again.

emperor:"!"

His Yuan Yi becomes the empress?

It sounds good, but is being an emperor a good job?

"Forget it, forget it. Others may not know, but I do. Forget this hard work."

"No, Your Majesty, if you enjoy something, you won't feel it's hard. I think the choice should be left to the princess herself." Xiao Yan said in a deep voice, "But if the princess follows the Empress, and has the ambition and ability to do this, but lacks the qualifications, then she will have to go a long way."

As parents, don’t we want to help our children overcome future difficulties?

The emperor pondered for a long time and then sighed: "In the royal family, it is difficult for brothers and sisters to get along with each other. But Xiao Yan, I really hope that my three children can love each other in the future."

Is it really a good thing to involve my daughter again?

"The Emperor and the Empress have taught the three Highnesses very well," Xiao Yan said. "But I feel that neither the Crown Prince nor the Prince of Jin seem to have any intention of vying for the throne. The Princess, on the other hand, has a certain air of empress, judging by her age."

The emperor didn't speak for a long time.

"Your Majesty, the suffering of women across the world is too far away for us. But if it is a beloved mother, a deeply loved wife, or a doted upon daughter, then all the efforts and struggles, even the courage to be the first in the world, are worth it."

Xiao Yan paused and continued, "In fact, it was all done by women like the Empress and Qi Niang. All we have to do is express our attitude and show our support."

"I'll think about it."

This matter is really too big.

The emperor does not seek to be remembered in history, but he also has to maintain his dignity. He is afraid that he will become a laughing stock in the future.

And the emperor doesn't want to depose the prince.

"Xiao Yan, what do you think if I let Jian'er go on the northwest inspection tour on my behalf?" the emperor asked, "How about suppressing the matter of deposing the crown prince first?"

"Your Majesty, you should discuss this matter with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Xiao Yan was reluctant in his heart.

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Liu Jian's trip to the northwest would make San Ya attract attention.

But Xiao Yan also knew that he couldn't interfere too much with his children.

And he also had no ability to interfere with the prince.

Five days later, a shocking imperial edict was issued throughout the country.

The edict stated that Crown Prince Liu Jian, virtuous and modest, repeatedly requested to abdicate the throne in favor of his younger brother out of gratitude for their deep brotherly love. The emperor, moved by his sincerity, granted his request, appointing Prince of Jin Liu Yu as crown prince instead. At the same time, he also appointed the former Crown Prince Liu Jian as King of Zhenbei, sending him to the northwest to serve as a vassal and guard the country's frontier.

Another edict was equally eye-catching: although the empress was no longer the mother of the country, she was specially appointed to the Ministry of Personnel because of her talents and served as the Minister of Personnel, specifically responsible for fighting for the rights and interests of female officials and solving various problems encountered in their tenure.

Immediately afterwards, the emperor issued an edict that was enough to shake up the moral order of the court and the country: from then on, women also had the right to inherit the family business.

For a moment, there was an uproar throughout the government and the country, like boiling oil poured into cold water, causing an uproar.

The new crown prince Liu Yu, who was pushed to the forefront of the storm, was now standing in the courtyard of the marquis's mansion, with a look of confusion and collapse on his face, wondering "Who am I and where am I?"

He doesn't want to be the crown prince!

He just wants to follow his elder brother and have fun!

"Where is my elder brother? Is he really gone?" Liu Yu grabbed Si Yachi who came out hurriedly and asked anxiously.

Si Ya looked at the new prince, who was about to jump up and down anxiously, blinked her eyes, and handed over a plate of freshly baked sweet-scented osmanthus cake. "Well, the prince came to inform us yesterday and left this morning. Your Highness, would you like to have a snack to calm your nerves?"

Liu Yu couldn't eat any more. He was so angry that he kept spinning in circles: "Why did he really leave? He didn't even tell me! He just threw this mess to me!"

Si Ya didn't try to persuade him. She picked up a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake and ate it in small bites. She watched him wandering around and said softly, "You've already left. You won't be able to catch up if you get dizzy. Why don't you eat something sweet first? It will make you feel better."

Liu Yu was tired of walking around, and finally sat down on the steps under the porch in frustration. He took the snack handed to him by Si Ya, took a big bite, and muttered, "...It's not good at all."

The two of them sat on the steps, and Si Ya comforted Liu Yu in a gentle voice.

Teng Wenfu, who was lying in a chair basking in the sun, looked over through the door between the two courtyards, a relieved smile appearing on his old face.

Time flies like an arrow. Generation after generation of children are growing up. It’s great. This is what we look forward to in life.

In the main courtyard, Lu Qiniang and Xiao Yan were talking.

"Now, the sky has completely changed." Lu Qiniang looked out the window and said softly.

Although the road ahead was destined to be full of turmoil, she was more excited to see that the woman's inheritance rights were established and the queen also stayed in the court and exerted her strength in a new way.

“It’s finally getting better.”

Xiao Yan held her hand: "Well, it will be better."

The road ahead is long and arduous, but he will accompany his abandoned mother in her search for the future, forever.

As he was speaking, a cheerful noise came from outside.

Erya and Yunting came back with their son "Gouzi".

It turns out that today is Ah Ci's birthday, and the whole family has agreed to get together to celebrate.

When Liu Yu heard that there was a banquet, he immediately decided to stay and have a free meal, temporarily putting his worries behind him.

At this moment, a small figure rushed through the yard like a cannonball, with a pink, humming piglet tucked under its arm!

Following behind were a few servants who were at a loss whether to laugh or cry and were panting.

It was the naughty dog ​​who found these two little pigs from somewhere and treated them as treasures.

"Slow down! Young master, please slow down!" the servant shouted from behind.

Before he could finish his words, the dog lost his balance and fell hard on his butt with a thud.

The piglet he had been holding under his arm immediately broke free, howling in panic and running around in the yard.

This chaotic and lively scene happened to be seen by the people who came out of the house, and immediately caused everyone to burst into laughter.

Even Liu Yu, who was depressed just now, couldn't help laughing out loud.

The dog didn't care about the pain, he got up quickly, pointed at the piglets running around the yard, stamped his feet and yelled anxiously -

"The pig ran away."

The book was published on March 4th, and it has been exactly half a year now. Thank you all for following along all the way. This is the best-performing book during my serialization period. It has received a lot of love, but it also has many shortcomings, which have now come to an end.

I love Qi Niang, just as you like her, she is just an ordinary person, but like a little sun, she shines and gives heat within her ability.

She has helped many people and has been helped by many people.

In the end, she still hadn't fulfilled her dream, but the road continued.

Abandoned mother and moved forward courageously.

Life may not be easy, but please believe that as long as you are brave and strong enough, the haze will eventually dissipate, because you are not struggling alone.

I know you have a lot of reluctance, because I do too.

There will be a long extra chapter later, don’t worry, everything you want to know will be there.

The extra characters tentatively confirmed are San Ya, Siya, Zhang Heyao, and Xiao Man. There may also be some other people, such as Qi Niang and Xiao Yan's little sweetness, etc., which will be dropped from time to time.

The highlight should be Sanya and Zhang Heyao, but I haven't figured out how to write Zhang Heyao yet, so you can give me some suggestions~

Regardless, thanks for following along.
