So the scholars saw the only test paper with the character "A".
Every question was answered correctly, the only thing was how women and men should be matched to achieve the greatest effect.
The Minister of Rites answered “I don’t know” here.
Because there has never been such a precedent from ancient times to the present, he really didn't know.
But there is one more sentence at the end.
"But you can give it a try."
This sentence reflects his attitude. He is willing to try, but he only hopes that the emperor can control the situation.
The scholars were impressed by what they saw, heard and watched today.
"I want to sign up for a sprint class. With so many officials dismissed, there must be a shortage of officials in the court. I want to work for the welfare of the people. I'm sure I can do it."
The scholar was so moved by these scenes that he immediately gave up his lofty ambitions.
The other scholars also followed suit, and for a while, the atmosphere was very lively.
Emperor Qin Yuanhao also stood up from his seat and looked into the crowd, and indeed saw a person in white.
"I am waiting for you here. I hope you will not forget the great ambitions we made today."
"I declare once again that there will be no restrictions on this Spring Examination, whether it be in terms of appearance or physical condition, it does not matter."
When the scholars heard this, they finally understood what the princes had said.
These changes are not only for women, but also to give hope to more people in Daqin.
Just then, several officers were passing by, escorting people by.
One of the women yelled, "Master Fang, please save us! We in the Yuan family are all working for you!"
This sentence immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"Who is this?"
"Outsider? This is the old lady from the Yuan family who caused such a stir in the city."
"I didn't expect that the Yuan family would be taken away just after the law was issued. They deserve it."
"Brother, judging from your tone, this family is very bad."
"Not just bad, not human."
The old lady of the Yuan family has been lame in her legs ever since she was frozen in the snow by the Yang family last time. She looked at the Concubine Chen in front of her with a fierce look in her eyes.
Then she saw that Censor Fang turned his head away and didn't want to pay any attention to her, so she gritted her teeth and shouted at Emperor Qin Yuanhao.
"My family has been generals for generations. It was only when my master voluntarily surrendered his military power that he was rewarded with a civilian position like this."
"Is Your Majesty truly so cruel that he wants our Yuan family to be extinct?"
Yang Dingyi was holding her child in a carriage when she arrived and heard her ex-mother-in-law confusing right and wrong.
"Mother-in-law, what you said is not right. The eldest son of the Yuan family is in my arms, but soon he will no longer be a member of your Yuan family?"
"I've already submitted the evidence of you drugging me and finding a midwife to the authorities."
"I accuse you of plotting to murder my daughter-in-law and coveting my dowry."
When Old Madam Yuan saw Yang Dingyi rushing over and making what she had done public, the hatred in her eyes became even stronger.
"You bitch, you've been married into the Yuan family for so many years and you haven't given birth to any children. I don't even recognize the baby in my belly."
Yang Dingyi stepped forward and said with a wry smile, "Of course I am no match for the Fang family's daughter who is kept outside. Not only do you covet my dowry, but you also use it to support other women."
"I, the daughter of the Yang family, wash clothes and cook at home, and even kneel outside to serve you in the winter. You just want to waste my time so that your good son can marry another noble woman."
"I guess you're worried that my dowry won't be enough!"
"Shut up, you're lying, it's not true at all. It's you, you're the one who's unfaithful to your husband."
"Mom, please stop talking." Yuan Chengli saw that his mother was getting more and more outrageous, so he quickly interrupted her, "My dear, please stop talking too. For Qi'er's sake, please let my mother go!"
Unexpectedly, Yang Dingyi was not prepared to let this family go. "Who told you his name was Qi'er? Yuan Chengli, you forced me on our wedding day and even drugged me. Do you think I would forget it?"
"It's not like I haven't been pregnant before, but because of the incense you used on me and because your mother asked me to set the rules, I had a miscarriage. Your whole family even teamed up to deceive me."
"After this, I really couldn't get pregnant."
When Yuan Chengli saw that Yang Dingyi had even investigated this matter thoroughly, he felt his eyes go blank.
"I won't let any of you Yuan family go. My father-in-law still doesn't dare to speak, isn't it because you know everything?"
"My father always thought you were upright and didn't take sides. In fact, you would do anything for power. Wasn't the Fang family girl arranged by you and Censor Fang?"
Yang Dingyi's words made everyone in the Yuan family stunned.
Censor Fang, who was not far away, was already trembling as he held the test paper in his hand. When he heard their names being called, his whole body trembled even more.
There was no way out. His test score was just above "C" and he was just a little bit away from being taken away.
And now it has been exposed by these idiots, I am afraid for Your Majesty.
The onlookers heard the whole story.
"So, Yuan Chengli's father wanted to climb up the ladder of power, but he was afraid that the Yang family would come and cause trouble, so one of them stayed inside the house while the other stayed outside."
"That's wishful thinking. Can we give the Yuan family all the good things?"
"The little sister of the Yang family is really pitiful, but fortunately, with the new law, the child can follow her back to the Yang family."
"Since ancient times, no child has ever followed the woman."
"Brother, isn't there a precedent now?"
“…”
Qin Yuanhao looked at Zhou Mian, who then stepped forward and shouted, "Alright, what on earth are you officers doing? Take the man away!"
When the officials saw that His Majesty had given the signal, they quickly covered the mouths of the Yuan family members and continued on their way.
Before leaving, they even advertised, "If you want to know the follow-up, remember to go to our Ministry of Justice bulletin board. The results will be available as early as today."
"Is the Ministry of Justice handling cases so quickly now?"
"If the Ministry of Justice could always maintain this enthusiasm, there wouldn't be so many wrongful convictions."
The officials were also helpless, but there was nothing they could do. His Majesty had issued a new assessment list, and all six ministries had to undergo the assessment, and the people would vote anonymously.
The department with the lowest vote count, lowest contribution to the people, and lowest public satisfaction will have its holiday canceled for one month.
There are only three days of rest in a month. It would be really miserable if we lost all of them.
"It seems that our Great Qin laws are still very useful. My daughter is being oppressed by that evil mother-in-law every day at her husband's house. I will go find her and file a complaint."
"Oh, please don't. It's not like your daughter and her husband don't have feelings for each other. Besides, that woman didn't kill your daughter. She just didn't want her to return home."
The discussion between the two happened to be overheard by a scholar who was reading nearby. "Madams, please look at the law. The husband's family cannot prevent a woman from returning to her husband's family for any reason."
"ah!"
"really?"
