He said that it was her blessing to be the second prince's consort, and warned her that after becoming the prince's consort, she could not get close to any man, otherwise she would be punished at the least, divorced and thrown into a pig cage at the worst, etc...
Yang Zhanying, who had never suffered such embarrassment since childhood, completely exploded with temper.
But damn, she really wanted to become the second prince's consort. Whoever wanted this blessing could take it. If it weren't for the emperor's decree, she would have gone to the other party's door to ask him to cancel the engagement.
She's been treated so badly before she even gets married. If she gets married, she's afraid she'll be humiliated to death in the backyard.
Of course, the emperor is now wary of the Yang family and even wants to take back the Yang family's military power. She doesn't dare to give any handle to her family.
Just because she couldn't resist and cancel the engagement didn't mean she couldn't force those people who looked down on her to ask the emperor to cancel the engagement!
"You, you are so presumptuous. We are the people around Concubine Yun. You dare to kill us. You are not afraid of death. Aren't you afraid of implicating your parents, Duke Yang?"
Although she was afraid, one of the maids still relied on the fact that Concubine Yun was behind her and questioned Yang Zhanying loudly and harshly.
Yang Zhanying's eyes turned cold, and he rushed forward, ready to slap her in the mouth with the ruler in his hand.
Mammy was so frightened that she staggered back and almost fell.
...
...
Qin Wu kindly supported her.
"Sister, you're back." The ferocious Yang Zhanying's expression changed very quickly when he saw Qin Wu. He immediately smiled and restrained his ferocity.
"Mammy, my sister has a bad temper. Please bear with me." Qin Wu said politely, "I will go back and report to the Royal Concubine. My sister grew up in the frontier and is wild and difficult to tame. If she really marries the Second Prince, please ask the Second Prince to be more tolerant."
"Now the Second Prince dares to make my sister angry. If he marries into the royal family, I'm afraid he will never have peace in his life."
"Your Highness, you should know that the Duke loves his granddaughter the most and will not let her suffer any injustice."
Although they were polite words, the nanny felt cold all over and was even more frightened than Yang Zhanying's ferocious appearance.
Thinking that Qin Wu was also a powerful character who dared to anger her mother-in-law, and that she had the support of the empress dowager, these words were not a threat to her, but a warning to Concubine Yun that if she continued to make things difficult for Yang Zhanying, Qin Wu would find a way to make her restless.
She quickly stood up, with a reluctant expression on her face, "I, I will tell the Imperial Concubine."
After saying that, the nanny quickly ordered everyone else to leave.
However, before Nanny and her group returned to the palace and had time to report to Concubine Yun about Yang Zhanying's matter, she suddenly fell seriously ill and died two days later.
At this moment, after Qin Wu heard Yang Zhanying say what these people were going to do to her, a hint of coldness appeared in her eyes.
Women value their reputation the most, and Concubine Yun obviously did not believe in Yang Zhanying's innocence.
But she had found out clearly that it was Concubine Yun who had the Emperor arrange the marriage between the Second Prince and Yang Zhanying.
She looked down on Yang Zhanying, but wanted her son to marry her. Her purpose must be to make Duke Yang stand on the side of the Second Prince.
This is the intention of Concubine Yun and Prime Minister Qin to cooperate. If she had not caught Qin Yinnuan and Qi Xiuzhe having sex in bed, Concubine Yun would not have allowed the Emperor to marry Yang Zhanying to the Second Prince.
The Imperial Observatory was still planning the marriage between the Second Prince and Yang Zhanying, so she still had time to help Yang Zhanying cancel the arranged marriage between the Second Prince and Yang Zhanying.
Of course, she also knew that Concubine Yun would not let Yang Zhanying go easily. After all, the Yang family was beneficial to her son.
She has no one in the palace, let alone the affairs of the harem. She has to think carefully about how to solve this problem.
"Don't worry about me." Yang Zhanying didn't care, "I'm not afraid of Concubine Yun and the Second Prince at all."
"My marriage to the Second Prince can dispel the Emperor's doubts about my Yang family. Besides, I can beat ten weak scholars like the Second Prince with one punch."
Yang Zhanying thought it was simple.
Qin Wu knew better than her that entering the royal family was not as simple as being able to fight back if bullied or not.
This involves various forces, conspiracies, and shady tactics that are difficult to guard against.
"Of course I believe in your ability." Qin Wu added, "But your sister also said that she wants to be a general, to fight on the battlefield, to protect her family and country. How can you display your ability in the harem?"
Qin Wu's words instantly made Yang Zhanying's expression lose hope, "Who made me born a girl..."
She sighed deeply, "If the Eastern Jin Dynasty was still around, maybe I would still believe that women could defy fate, overturn the times, and change the fate of weak women. Unfortunately, the Eastern Jin Dynasty was destroyed..."
Women lament the gender injustice, but there is no other way. Even the empress who founded the Eastern Jin Dynasty only survived one dynasty before it was overthrown.
This makes men despise and laugh at women's weakness, believing that they will never be able to accomplish great things.
Even if Yang Zhanying wanted to realize his ambitions, he couldn't.
I thought Qin Wu could become a female medical officer, even if it was an insignificant position, but she was the only female official in the Great Zhou. She thought that if the emperor was willing to let her go to the border to make merit, she would be happy even if she was just a centurion.
However, the emperor didn't give her any chance.
The only way out for the woman is to get married. She can only struggle under the emperor's bottom line. Once she breaks the bottom line, not only will she die, but she will also implicate everyone in the Yang family.
Even though she had no fear of life or death, she still had weaknesses that constrained her and forced her to compromise.
"The Eastern Jin Dynasty..." Qin Wu didn't know much about this dynasty. She wondered, "Why does Sister Yi think that the Eastern Jin Dynasty could change the fate of women?"
Knowing that Qin Wu grew up in Shangjing of the Great Zhou Dynasty and had rarely been to the border, it was not surprising that she didn't know about the Eastern Jin Dynasty. She told her about the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
"The emperor of the Eastern Jin Dynasty was a female emperor. She was a legendary figure. Her father was the lord of a city. The dynasty before the Eastern Jin Dynasty was called the Jin Dynasty.
The Jin Dynasty was already short of supplies, and the emperor before the Jin Dynasty was extravagant and disregarded the lives of the people. This empress rebelled, overthrew the Jin Dynasty, and proclaimed herself empress, which led to the end of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. ”
"It means the sun rises in the east, which is the rebirth of dawn..."
When talking about this empress of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Yang Zhanying's eyes were filled with admiration and respect.
The Jin Dynasty, which was originally in dire straits, was reborn because of this empress, although many cities were occupied by other countries.
But after more than ten years of her negotiation, the people of the Eastern Jin Dynasty were able to have enough food to eat and live a relatively stable life.
However, the queen died in the end. She was attacked by the other three countries, forced into defeat, and finally died in her own palace along with her soldiers.
Almost all the people of the Jin Dynasty, both men and women, fought together against the enemy, lived and died with her, and no one retreated.
Even the people of the Eastern Jin Dynasty would rather die at the hands of the enemy than surrender, even if they were captured.
Therefore, when the Eastern Jin Dynasty fell, not only the country was destroyed, but the people as well.
