Qin Zheng thought that in his previous life, Fu Yueli was able to win over Fu Baiheng because he was single, his mindset was different, and he was willing to take risks. However, in this life, he married Mingyue, so he had to think carefully before doing anything. Therefore, Fu Baiheng had a big advantage in this life.
Shi Mingyue said coldly: "It's up to you. You know more about the past life than me, but it doesn't mean I will lose." Shi Mingyue was not exaggerating. She always felt that she was no worse than men. She had read all the books her brother had read. It was just because she was not a man that she could not take the imperial examination.
She was simply burdened by her female status. Centuries-old rules prohibited women from entering officialdom, forcing them to learn needlework and, if possible, poetry. In short, it wasn't about self-improvement, but rather pleasing men. In her previous life, she'd studied military texts for Qin Zheng, hoping to share his burdens. Qin Zheng, however, said that wasn't a woman's concern. Fearing she'd get bored, he sent her to oversee the weaving bureau he'd established in Xinzhou, weaving cloth and making clothing for the front lines, saying that was what women were supposed to do. She did indeed excel at it, improving the technique and increasing garment production. Had her health not deteriorated and forced her to leave, perhaps she would have done even better.
Qin Zheng didn't want to be hostile to Shi Mingyue, but he also didn't want to help Fu Yueli. Seeing his former wife living in harmony with someone else, how could such a thing happen in the world? He would rather not have been reborn.
"I won't help Fu Baiheng. He is very dangerous. You'd better be careful." After leaving the last words, Qin Zheng opened the window and left.
Shi Mingyue sighed deeply. She didn't want to confront Qin Zheng at all. She just hoped that she and he could let it go in the future. However, this was probably impossible. It would be better to see each other less often.
