Chapter 250, New Laws

"Greetings to the Ninth Prince."

"Greetings to Princess Ximing."

Several people bowed to Xia Siheng and Xia Wanwan.

Minister Liu was particularly conspicuous among the people. If you look closely, you can see that his eyelids are trembling.

Oops, he wanted to clear his suspicion by scolding him, but he didn't expect that the Ninth Prince heard everything he said.

It's okay to scold the Ninth Prince, after all, he will be his son-in-law in the future.

But if he scolds Wanwan, Xia Siheng will definitely not be so easy to talk to.

It's over!

Minister Liu closed his eyes and was ready to face Xia Siheng's overwhelming revenge, but he didn't expect it.

Xia Siheng said lightly, "No need to be polite," and then said gently, "Several adults have worked hard recently because of the explosion. I will host a banquet in Cuiyan Tower tomorrow to reward all the adults. Please come over and tell me."

After these words,

several adults were all confused.

Could it be that the Ninth Prince has something to ask them?

His tone was polite, but the meaning of his words seemed to be an order rather than a question.

Everyone was still trying to figure out what was going on that could make the usually aloof Ninth Prince personally come out to host a banquet.

But Xia Siheng did not give them time to react, and continued, "The invitation letter will be sent to your homes tonight."

After that.

Minister Liu took the lead, "I will definitely go."

"Yes, I will go too."

...

Although they didn't know what the Ninth Prince was up to.

But since Old Liu had gone, and with his character, he would definitely not cheat them.

In this way, they could rest assured.

Xia Siheng walked towards Yu's study with a smile on his face, holding the baby.

"New dad."

The little guy turned his little face and asked in a baby voice, "You are inviting them to dinner... Can you take me..."

[I also want to eat delicious food! ]

"Silly child, do you know why I have to hold a banquet to win them over?" Xia Siheng tapped Wanwan's little nose, his eyes full of doting.

"Why?" Xia Wanwan asked with her head tilted.

"Don't you want His Majesty to draft a law to protect young girls? There is a provision for the promulgation of new laws in the Great Xia Dynasty. Every official has a jade card in his hand. Before the new law is promulgated, there are two votes for the jade card."

"The first time is fine, usually it can pass. If more than three officials disagree to vote for the jade card the second time, the new law will be invalidated."

"Now I'm holding a banquet to win them over, naturally hoping that they can vote for the jade cards in their hands."

Xia Siheng explained lightly.

"Is the new law... not good? Why do we have to win?" Xia Wanwan asked with her head tilted.

[Is there water in these officials' brains? ]

[A law that can protect the people and protect women, won't they agree? 】

Xia Siheng pursed his lips, "Wanwan, it's not that simple. Your suggestion is good, but there are many court officials, and it will still affect the interests of some people."

For example, the last draft that the murderer should pay the death penalty was rejected by someone.

This is because there are many second-generation officials in the families of court officials who often bully others and kill people.

If this article is released, those second-generation officials in their families who have killed people will all die.

He can't guarantee whether some relatives of court officials have attacked young girls.

If so, there will definitely be people who oppose it.

He must make all preparations in advance and not let down Wanwan's feelings for all girls in the world. m.ζíＮgＹúΤxＴ.иεΤ

"It's so unfair." Xia Wanwan curled her lips.

【This world is too unfair to women. 】

Xia Siheng naturally understood her feelings. He touched the little guy's head and sighed softly, "Don't worry, Dad will help you."

He wanted to get all this for Wanwan.

There was a reason why Wanwan wanted to do all this.

Just because she was a girl, she was swapped with a boy at birth.

Fortunately, she was not an ordinary child, so she escaped and avoided being thrown into the abandoned baby tower.

In the process of her growth, she was treated unfairly by the Xie family because of her gender.

She saw with her own eyes that Zhong Youyan was forced to marry into the Xie Mansion, and her mother suffered all kinds of grievances in the inner house.

The little ghost girl did nothing wrong, but because Li Kengqiang was playful, she had to pay the price with her life.

Even the male relatives around her could attack the young Li Qian, which was worse than beasts.

Wanwan has experienced and seen these things, so she naturally understands the difficulties of women.

Although those beasts got what they deserved with her help, what about the millions of girls who have no one to protect them in places she can't see?

They have no human rights and live a miserable life, becoming tools for men to please and seize power.

She wants to propose a law, although it can't completely free women from the shackles.

At least it can allow girls to grow up healthily and happily under the protection of the court and the law, and no one dares to violate them again.

Xia Wanwan felt a warmth in her heart. She looked at Xia Siheng with big eyes, hesitated for a moment, and said,

"Thank you, Daddy."

[Wow, my new dad actually understands me! ]

[He's so good! I cried to death. 】

"Be good, call me daddy again." Xia Siheng was very pleased with the word "daddy" and kissed her tender little face.

After the first time, Xia

Wanwan didn't mind wiping her face. She smiled and called, "Daddy, Daddy..." Xia Siheng's heart melted and a sour smell came from his nose.

After so long, he finally heard his daughter sincerely call him daddy!

He hugged his daughter tighter and asked the eunuch from the study to go in and report.

The two of them entered the study.

They told the emperor about this.

The emperor frowned slightly, and from a pile of memorials, he found the case that the official Qin handed in yesterday.

He asked, "But is it because of this?"

He felt very uncomfortable after hearing about Li Qian's matter.

Xia Wanwan nodded and said in a soft voice, "Yes, and no."

"Besides her... there are many... suffering girls in the world..."

"Uncle Emperor... can you draft a law for Wanwan?"

"Wanwan wants to protect them."

The emperor also has a daughter. He lowered his head and touched the boy's head.

"Uncle supports you, but if this matter does not succeed, Wanwan is not allowed to be sad, understand?"

Xia Wanwan patted her chest, her small round face full of determination.

"Every time I take action, I succeed..."
