Chapter 22: Two people in white.
Fang Lingxing glanced at his good friend, patted his shoulder to comfort him, and asked him to listen.
Fang Lingchu cursed the entire Dingbei King family in his heart and continued watching.
[Zhang Gang was disheartened and planned to commit suicide, but he was unexpectedly saved by the eldest prince of Zhou State and then became the eldest prince's adviser. It can be said that Zhang Gang played an indispensable role in the eldest prince of Zhou State being able to sit in that position. The eldest prince led his troops to attack Long State and captured many cities. It was all Zhang Gang's advice. It can be said that Zhang Gang has the talent of a prime minister.
Later, the Fourth Prince sued for peace, and the First Prince asked Zhang Gang what reward he wanted. He wanted the entire Dingbei King's family to be torn into pieces by five horses, even the newborn child was not spared. Tsk tsk tsk, this guy is also a ruthless person, but the Dingbei King deserved it.
Fang Lingchu sighed, "There are reasons why our Dragon Nation was destroyed. Your Majesty, if you don't destroy your nation, you'd be doing them a disservice."
All the men present were young and energetic. When they heard what had happened to their brothers, they were very angry and wanted to kill the Prince of Dingbei.
They had heard of this prince's reputation before, but it was not as exaggerated as that of Prince An. They didn't expect that the two were equally powerful.
Zhang Gang smiled helplessly. The other party was the prince. How could he fight against him?
The system continued: [Zhang Gang is a man of great talent. If he survived, with his talent, he might even be remembered in history. He has the ability of Wang Anshi.]
Fang Lingchu asked in surprise: "Are you talking about Wang Anshi, who although his reforms failed, was as resourceful as anyone else?"
The system affirmed: [Yes, after he defected to the Zhou Kingdom, he also proposed that the Crown Prince use talented women, regardless of gender. However, the strategies he proposed were particularly vicious and harmed many people in the Dragon Kingdom.]
Fang Lingchu screamed in his heart.
[I can understand that, but... ah!]
Zhang Gang blushed slightly when he heard Fang Lingchu's exaggerated flattery.
The other young masters looked at Zhang Gang with different expressions, but each of them was full of admiration and appreciation.
The system continued, "Of course. Ever since he learned you could serve as an official, he's been a huge admirer of Emperor Chongde. He feels that Emperor Chongde has a heart that can accommodate women, and he's definitely able to see the talents of some humble children. He can be said to be a huge fanboy of Your Majesty."
Fang Lingchu asked in confusion: [Why is it because I entered the court as an official?]
The system said: [Because he felt that since His Majesty could prioritize talents regardless of gender, he must be an extremely enlightened emperor, someone worthy of his lifelong following.]
Fang Lingchu nodded, confirming Zhang Gang's idea, and said, "I also think Your Majesty is very wise. If you allow women to pass the Enke exam as well, so that more women can leave the backyard, that would be even wiser."
Then Fang Lingchu sighed and continued, "I absolutely must have a young lady in the imperial court. Seeing those old men every day makes me nervous. Besides, aren't those men superior because they enjoy excellent resources and can see all kinds of scenery, while women can only have a small place like the backyard? Of course, they are short-sighted."
The system agreed and said, "As long as women are given opportunities, they are not necessarily worse than men."
Fang Lingchu said: "If they were given the same educational opportunities and the same resources, those men would understand what it means to be as good as men."
Fang Lingxing shook his head. He knew that his sister wanted a woman to go to court with her just to have someone to play with her.
but…….
Everyone was considering Fang Lingchu's words. They were not stubborn people, and they had very smart sisters in their family.
It's just that they never thought about it in this way.
Now Fang Lingchu brought it up, and made these gentlemen think about it.
On the one hand, they felt that it was not normal for a woman to go out, but on the other hand, they felt that what Fang Lingchu said made sense.
Talent has never had anything to do with gender, it's just that they don't get the same resources.
They reflected on the situation in their own family and it seemed that this was indeed the case.
It seems that the sisters are all good at music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but they are learning the six arts of a gentleman. What if... what if they are also learning these?
Everyone stopped thinking immediately, as they felt that if they continued thinking, something terrible would happen.
Fang Lingchu said with some hesitation: [System, how can I save him? Bring him home? But if I bring him back...]
Fang Lingchu glanced at her eldest brother quietly, then immediately rejected the idea. [No, no, my parents and my brothers and sisters would beat me to death. What should I do?]
Bringing a man home, don’t just think of it as a feudal thing from ancient times. Even in modern times, many parents don’t allow their daughters to bring men home before they graduate from college.
Fang Lingchu was in a daze while eating. Fang Lingxing looked at her sister who was not eating well and said, "Eat well."
They will figure out other things.
Here, Minister Fang came out and was so angry that he didn't see his own carriage that his carriage almost tilted. He came back angrily and was planning to give his daughter a good beating. But when he heard that his daughter didn't come home, he became even angrier.
Mrs. Fang calmed her husband down and then spoke for him.
Some of the people who heard Fang Lingchu's words in Qingfeng Baiyu Tower didn't care, some opposed it, and everyone had all kinds of opinions.
Fang Lingchu and her friends had just finished their meal when something happened in the next room.
For some unknown reason, the room next door was struck by lightning. The lightning only struck the room next door, and the other rooms were not affected at all.
A door suddenly appeared in the room. Yao Fangxue was startled. He looked up at himself and saw so many people. He fainted.
The man was still under Yao Fangxue and was knocked unconscious by the unconscious person.
Then everyone saw two pale bodies inseparable, with a fainted girl and a dying man beside them.
At this moment, someone recognized the two girls.
"Aren't these the two young ladies from the Imperial Household Department?"
Another person said, "That guy over there who's also disheveled seems to be the same."
Everyone was talking at once, discussing the two girls.
Fang Lingchu took a look and covered the two of them with his own cloak and his brother's cloak respectively.
Although both of them are the ones who destroyed their family, it is good to let everyone see that both daughters of the Yao family are not good.
Fang Lingchu still felt a little guilty, but she was too angry at the time. Usually when she is angry, she will do very irrational things.
Fang Lingxing felt heartbroken when she saw the guilt in her sister's eyes.
If he had known this would happen, he would have taken action directly.
Fang Lingming pulled his sister away and said, "Little girl, don't look at those things. They will make you get stye. Let's go home."
By the way, Zhang Gang was taken away as well.
Leaving Fang Lingxing to deal with his own affairs.
Others also stayed to watch the fun.
On the way back home, Fang Lingchu was still feeling rather gloomy. The system looked at him and said, "Host, they are the ones who have taken away your family's luck. If you don't destroy them, then your family will be the next to suffer."
Fang Lingchu knew this was the truth and said, "I know this is the truth, but I just feel that this might be too harsh."
The system said: [If you don't do this, your brother and she will be caught by everyone in the act.]
