Chu Changying walked out dazed.
Ling Shumo looked at the direction he left, feeling a strange sense of loss yet satisfaction.
Lu Jinshu thought about his words for a long time, and finally used the most straightforward way to ask, "Your Highness, do you like that Mr. Chu?"
Ling Shumo was brought back to reality by Lu Jinshu's words. She smiled and said, "It's not that I like him, but when I see him, I will think of a friend from the past..."
Lu Jinshu couldn't understand what Ling Shumo meant.
Ling Shumo did not speak to answer his questions.
Whenever she saw Chu Changying, she would think of herself in her previous life. At that time, she hated herself for not being a man and unable to achieve great things like her father and brother.
She resented the unfairness of heaven and lamented that she was so pitiful and ridiculous.
No one would help her at that time.
Zhao Fangming would also laugh at her for overestimating her own abilities.
Zhao Fangming said, "As a woman, you should take care of your husband and children.
Other people's wives are all virtuous, but you are so restless that you openly talk about how to govern the country at the flower-viewing banquet hosted by the princess.
Who do you think you are?
Do you think you look smart and wise?
You, a woman, are doing things that men should do, and everyone else is laughing at my wife. You are so shameless and so rude.
You've completely embarrassed me, don't you know that?"
Ling Shumo was so angry that her blood boiled after being scolded by Zhao Fangming. She wanted to find a voice supporting her from somewhere else.

Ling Shumo was very confused at first, but she soon came to her senses.
Zhao Fangming's classmates all worked hard to get to where she is today. Do they really not know that she is talented?
Of course not.
They're just jealous.
They were jealous of her because she was such a knowledgeable woman, and they were even more afraid of her going out in public.
If that happens, the world will find out that those grown men are no match for a delicate girl in the boudoir.
They were afraid of her, so they wanted to suppress her.
Women should be an appendage of men. Women are naturally shorter than men. In the eyes of those people, her intelligence and wisdom are her original sin.
And those ladies who were women like her were also ashamed of her.
Those ladies have been tamed by patriarchy for thousands of years.
As people of lower status, they have to help the men in a superior position to oppress their own sex.
