Chapter 203 No one would tell the truth unless they are tired of living!
Finally, Wei Zhao said with a grim expression, "Return to the palace!"
After hearing Wei Zhao's words, these concubines and their personal maids all breathed a sigh of relief, but their tears still rolled down like broken beads.
They were not completely relieved when all the men in black were killed.
Until now, Wei Zhao agreed to let them return to the palace, and they finally felt relieved.
It was not until this moment that they felt that their lives were saved.
Yu Youning and Jiang Lingzhou, like two hardworking little bees, shuttled among the injured guards and gave them simple treatment for their injuries.
The two of them had limited pills on them, so they could only stop the bleeding first, and deal with the rest after returning to the palace.
Anyway, as long as you save your life, the rest will be easy.
Sitting in the carriage back to the palace, Yu Youning looked at Wei Zhao with a dark face and apologized sincerely.
"Wei Zhao, I'm sorry! It's all my fault!"
"If I hadn't made this suggestion, you wouldn't have issued this decree, and today's events wouldn't have happened."
"I didn't think it through enough."
Although Yu Tingwan had told Yu Youning before that this was not Penglai Island and the national conditions were completely different.
But Yu Youning didn't take it too seriously.
She felt that everything depended on human effort, and as long as she tried, she might succeed!
If you do nothing, then there is no possibility.
But the current result is silently telling Yu Youning that it is not enough to just put ideas into action.
Wei Zhao was originally immersed in his own thoughts. After hearing Yu Youning's words, he hurriedly looked at Yu Youning, "Youning, don't say that. It's not like that! You are thinking about them. It's really for their own good. You can't deny your original intention just because of the current result.
If I’m wrong, it’s my fault. Chu Huaixu has already reminded me, it’s because I wasn’t prepared enough, otherwise I wouldn’t have…”
Yu Youning shook his head. "Okay, you don't have to comfort me. I understand in my heart! This matter is my problem. Even if you listen to Ah Xu and send more guards, it will be useless.
In this world, there are only thieves who can steal for a thousand days, but there is no one who can guard against thieves for a thousand days. You can ask the guards to escort them to their residence, but can you ask the guards to stay there all the time?
We can hold out for a day or two, but not ten or twenty days. When the time comes, as long as we evacuate the people, they will still act when necessary.”
Yu Youning has never been someone who likes to shirk responsibility.
Right is right, wrong is wrong.
If she does something wrong, she will not deny it, but will find a way to remedy it and do her best.
Wei Zhao also understood that what Yu Youning said was right.
Those who opposed this matter would kill all the concubines if given the slightest opportunity.
To resolve this matter, it is never a matter of sending more guards.
Of course, this does not mean that I will give up and never mention this matter again.
He insisted on making this happen!
Not only because he had to do what he promised Youning, but also because he wanted to let those old guys know that Nanzhao was now his, Wei Zhao's, Nanzhao, not those old guys' Nanzhao.
"Youning, don't worry, I will have someone conduct a thorough investigation and find these people!"
Yu You blinked her big eyes, "After finding it...what happens next?"
"Kill him."
Just two simple words, without even any extra tone.
But everyone in the carriage could clearly feel Wei Zhao's murderous intent and his determination.
Yu Youning stared at Wei Zhao for a while, then smiled widely, "Okay! I'll go with you!"
Not helping Wei Zhao.
Because fundamentally, it was Wei Zhao who was helping her fulfill her wish.
But...in fact, it was no longer the two of them helping each other.
It is the two of them who fight together against the injustice against women in this world!
Why can men have three wives and four concubines, but women must be faithful to one man!
Why are men advised to remarry after their wives die, while women are asked to remain faithful to their husbands after their husbands die?
As long as a woman's husband dies, both her husband's family and her parents' family require her to remain a chaste woman. No one cares how she lives the rest of her life. They just want her to remain a chaste woman in exchange for a chastity arch to add glory to their family.
What a shitty world!
This is bullshit!
They won't comply!
Did those concubines who cried and asked to return to the palace really give up their freedom?
No!
They simply had no ability to resist, no ability to protect their own lives, and therefore had no choice but to surrender!
But they were scared and gave in, but Yu Youning didn't want to give in!
She will definitely find those guys!
Take a good look at what their brains look like!
Chu Huaixu looked at Yu Youning, and after their eyes met for a moment, he smiled silently.
No one spoke in the carriage anymore, but something had already taken root in their hearts!
Chu Huaixu didn't say anything, but his eyes were always on Yu Youning.
It was so difficult for Nanzhao to implement this policy.
Dayong will only become more difficult.
But judging from Yu Youning's attitude, he is determined to accomplish this.
What should he do to get his father to agree to this matter?
Wei Zhao was already the emperor, but he was still just the crown prince.
If the emperor doesn't agree, then this will never happen in Dayong.
The more Chu Huaixu thought about it, the heavier his heart became.
...
Dayong.
The emperor looked at the latest secret letter, and his expression became more and more complicated.
Eunuch Wang quietly looked at the emperor's expression, and the more he looked, the more uneasy he felt.
Although the emperor's expression did not show anger, he was definitely not happy.
If I had to describe it, it would be...confusing.
The emperor was very conflicted at this time.
But what could have made the emperor so troubled?
Before Eunuch Wang could figure out what was going on, the emperor had already stood up and walked out with big strides, still holding the secret letter tightly in his hand.
Seeing this, Eunuch Wang did not dare to hesitate and followed immediately.
The emperor walked quickly all the way without riding in the imperial sedan chair, and just walked to the queen's palace.
The Chinese New Year is approaching soon, and the weather is getting colder. There are even small snowflakes falling outside.
As they walked, the emperor's cloak was already frozen through, and there were a lot of snowflakes on it.
Seeing the emperor coming in with a cold look on his face, the queen quickly stood up, immediately helped the emperor take off his cloak, pulled the emperor to sit by the stove, and handed him a cup of hot tea.
"Your Majesty, please drink some hot tea to warm yourself up first!"
The emperor placed the secret letter in his hand on the table next to him, then took the tea bowl and began to drink it in small sips.
The Queen frowned slightly, her face filled with worry. "Your Majesty, why didn't you take the sedan chair and just walked here? What if he gets frozen?"
The emperor had already taken several sips of tea and his body had warmed up a lot.
Hearing this, the emperor shook his head slightly. "It's nothing, I was just thinking about something. I walked over here. The cool breeze will help me think more clearly."
This is absolute nonsense!
But since she was facing the emperor, not her son, the queen didn't say it out loud. She just asked softly, "What is it that has troubled the emperor so much? Could you tell me about it?"
Before the emperor could answer, he laughed and said, "Of course I have to tell you, otherwise I wouldn't have come all the way here!"
"What on earth is that?"
The emperor did not speak this time. Instead, he picked up the secret letter on the table and handed it to the queen, "Take a look!"
The queen took it with both hands and sat aside to read it carefully.
When the queen saw that Chu Huaixu and Yu Youning were safe and sound and nothing had happened, she first breathed a sigh of relief.
I hope nothing happened!
As long as nothing happens to the two of them, nothing else matters!
Just as she was thinking this, the queen saw the following content.
Yu Youning suggested that the concubines of the old Nanzhao emperor be allowed to leave the palace and marry someone else, that all women in the world be able to divorce, and that widows be able to marry someone else of their own will...
The current Emperor Wei Zhao of Nanzhao agreed to all of Yu Youning's suggestions and would send his father's concubines out of the palace in three days...
The queen's expression became complicated at this moment.
How to say it?
These two people, one dares to speak, the other dares to do.
It really is...
At this moment, she finally understood why the emperor's expression was so indescribable and why he walked over.
Now that Yu Youning has this idea, he will probably suggest Chu Huaixu to do the same in the future.
For the emperor, this was equivalent to putting a hat on his head, and it was a green one.
Even if this happened, it would be after his death, but he still couldn't accept it.
The queen was thinking about this when she heard the emperor's voice.
"Have you finished reading it? What do you think?"
Queen, "..."
How should she respond?
I knew before that the little girl Youning was different from other little girls.
But he really didn't expect it to be so different!
The queen hesitated for a long time before finally saying, "It's okay for the concubines without children to leave the palace and marry someone else..."
emperor,"???"
The emperor stared at the queen for a while, and could no longer maintain a cold expression, and even laughed.
“You!”
The emperor pointed at the queen.
"In the entire harem, I guess you're the only one who dares to say that."
The queen smiled but said nothing.
Of course, others dare not say it.
Especially those concubines who have no children.
If they said this was a good idea, wouldn't that be telling the emperor that they wanted to marry someone else?
The emperor would probably get so angry that he would order people to chop off their heads!
No one would tell the truth unless they are tired of living!
The emperor smiled for a while before gradually letting go of his smile. He sighed slowly, "Actually, even if you didn't say it, I would understand."
It is not easy for women to survive in this world. When they are at home, they can only rely on their father and brothers. After getting married, they can only rely on their husband and son.
If my husband died without a son, the rest of my life would be filled with nothing but dead silence.
