very good.
Seeing that the crowd had gathered, Tang Shiyue's expression suddenly became stern and he shouted, "Jiahe!"
"exist!"
Tang Shiyue pointed at Zhou Li Niang and said, "Come on! Break her bones for me!"
Zhou Li Niang was shocked and stepped back in fear: "You, you dare!"
Tang Shiyue sneered, "Why shouldn't I dare?"
Although Jia and a few others at the back didn't understand what she meant, they still rushed forward and took up their positions, which was quite scary.
Zhou Li'niang screamed in fear and stepped back hastily. If her maid hadn't blocked her, she would have almost fallen to the ground and cried out in fear.
After crying for a while, she suddenly realized something was wrong. When she looked up, she saw Tang Shiyue standing motionless in front of her, with his hands behind his back, looking at her quietly.
More and more people gathered around. Tang Shiyue looked at her and said in a clear voice, word by word, "Listen, I'm going to break your bones, and I want to break more!"
...
...
Everyone couldn't believe she was so arrogant.
Someone couldn't help but say, "Under the emperor's feet! There are such violent and cruel people!"
"Violent and wanton," Tang Shiyue looked at him and nodded: "You are right."
Everyone was stunned.
Tang Shiyue suddenly took a few steps forward and stood on the steps.
She turned to face the crowd, tapped her folding fan on her palm, and said calmly: "Every bit and every inch of the human body is a gift from heaven. The breathing and pulse, the nine revolutions and five elements are all natural, subtle and mysterious, far better than any chiseling!"
She paused for a moment and said, "God created humans. Some are tall, some are thin, some are plump, and some are thin. But throughout history, no one has ever been born with three-inch golden lotus feet!"
"The so-called three-inch golden lotus is nothing more than a group of foolish men and women who hired a cruel and ruthless woman to break the bones of their daughters when they were still young and naive, causing them to become deformed like that..."
She pointed at Zhou Li Niang with her fan and said, "If someone hits you, everyone knows it's evil. If someone breaks your bones, it's even more evil... How come someone broke four of your bones and refused to let them heal, made them grow crooked, made you unable to walk for decades, made you suffer this kind of torture for a long time, and you are grateful? Instead of suffering, you are proud of it? You even laugh at people whose bones are not broken? Why is that?"
The crowd suddenly fell silent.
She continued in a loud voice: "After your bones were broken, there were still those wicked people who pointed at your injuries and clapped their hands, saying, 'Well done, great, great!' Do these people have shit in their brains? Did you suffer this kind of torture just to be praised by such a cruel, sour, ignorant, and shit-headed man?"
She pointed at everyone and said: "If anyone thinks this is beautiful, go home and break your bones and see how it goes! Even if you haven't been to school, you should know that 'Do not do to others what you do not want others to do to you'!"
Someone shouted, "If you don't like it, then don't like it. Don't talk about heaven! The three-inch golden lotus is extremely beautiful. Many scholars have praised it in their poems, 'Who says that the jade tree can be seen every morning, but it is not as good as the golden lotus that comes step by step'."
Tang Shiyue looked at him and laughed.
The man stood with his chest puffed out as he faced her.
"Didn't God say anything?" Tang Shiyue smiled faintly, "Don't underestimate God because he has no mouth. God has said a million words! In the distant past, let's talk about natural disasters. When there is a flood, the first to die are these women, because their feet are too small to keep up. Even if they are given a boat, they can't climb on it... Survival of the fittest, this is the warning from God!"
"For the more recent ones, let's talk about man-made disasters. If there was a fire somewhere, would you say that natural feet would run faster or bound feet would run farther? For the more recent ones, let's talk about what happened just now. I was just trying to scare the girl. If it was someone else, she could just turn around and run away, but when she ran, she fell... You're so big that you can't see with your eyes? Or even if you see it, you don't understand what it means? Did you grow a head just to look taller?"
Everyone couldn't help but laugh.
Tang Shiyue said word by word: "The heavens are almost pointing at your foreheads to tell you that I created a good person, but you insisted on making him disabled. No matter how I said it, you wouldn't listen. Are you stupid, foolish, or vicious?"
Everybody burst into laughter.
But there were also many people who fell into deep thought.
After all, she is a movie queen. Her ability to attract fans is amazing, and her ability to brainwash people... is also amazing.
Tang Shiyue saw that it was almost done, and then he sighed: "The most pitiful thing is that the girl has no choice at all."
Soon, Lady Enford's remarks spread.
What she said, about survival of the fittest and only the wise, makes so much sense when you think about it carefully, doesn't it?
"Don't underestimate God, because He has spoken a million words!"
"I created a good person, but you insisted on destroying him. Are you stupid, foolish, or vicious?"
Well said!
The East Market was already a lively area, and a clever storyteller happened to be there. He was also very courageous, so he made up a joke in no time and started telling it in the restaurant. Tang Shiyue thought that this would help curb the unhealthy trend of foot binding, so he let it go.
Zhou Li'niang cried her heart out.
Regardless of whether one supports foot binding or not, she is a real clown in this joke.
That afternoon, Duke Chengguo went to the palace to file a complaint.
Duke Chengguo was also a man with a big beard. He knelt down at the imperial desk and angrily accused Lady Enfu of behaving domineeringly, beating people in the street, making irresponsible remarks about the harem... a host of other charges.
Emperor Ming Yan ignored him.
Until he finished speaking, she sneered and said, "I heard that it was your granddaughter who first slandered Enfu's reputation? And that day, it was she who laughed at Enfu in the street. Enfu happened to pass by and heard it, so she made such remarks. As for beating people, it was just to make a point. She didn't touch her at all!"
"Your Majesty!" Duke Chengguo said, "Your Majesty, please do not listen to rumors."
"I don't need to believe the rumors. The housekeepers, servants and maids around Enfu were all provided by me."
Duke Chengguo's face changed.
So... could it be true that the rumor that Lady Enfu County used the Emperor's Dragon Guard as her housekeeper is true?
He was speechless at that time and didn't dare to say a word.
The next day, Emperor Mingyan went to the Cining Palace to pay his respects, but the Empress Dowager asked about Tang Shiyue for the first time.
The Empress Dowager was the biological mother of Emperor Ming Yan. But at that time, Emperor Ming Yan was not the eldest son of this palace, so the resources of this palace naturally tilted towards the eldest son.
Therefore, the relationship between the mother and the son is of the type "I understand the truth, but I still feel a little aggrieved." It is good, but just not that good.
The Queen Mother was a smart person, and she was old. She usually didn't take care of things. It was rare for her to ask, so Emperor Mingyan naturally responded: "Don't worry, mother. When you die, I will ask her to come to the palace and kowtow."
He paused and said, "Yue'er grew up in the countryside after all, so she is a little ignorant of the rules."
After all, she was born to the Empress Dowager, and she could tell she was defending her when she heard it: "Your Majesty, rest assured. I like this Empress Fu very much, so I will not make things difficult for her."
On the other side, the third prince, the fourth prince and the fifth prince also arrived at the Crown Prince's Eastern Palace.
