Chapter 289 I am the Empress in a Patriarchal Society (42)



Jiang Rui is dead.

The second prince received the news the next day and was so frightened that he quickly took his family to the fiefdom.

Jiang Rui's affair caused a lot of discussion in the court, and many people scolded Jiang Li for regicide, saying he deserved to be put to death.

But the sound was too quiet to attract attention.

All voices that could be taken seriously were disempowered or suppressed by force.

The new emperor's coronation ceremony.

Except for Luo Shu and Shen Tingnan, everyone else was frightened when they saw Qian Xi appear in a bright yellow robe.

Where is Jiang Li?

Everyone looked around, but they couldn't see Jiang Li.

"And His Majesty?"

"Isn't His Majesty there?"

The Minister of Revenue heard a familiar voice and turned his head to look over. He saw Jiang Li standing beside him wearing an official uniform with python pattern.

"Your Majesty, why are you here?"

Jiang Li signaled with his eyes to Qian Xi, who was walking on the red carpet to the high platform to worship the ancestors, "Your Majesty is there!"

The Minister of Revenue quickly came to his senses, and everyone saw Jiang Li at this time.

For a moment, what was there that everyone didn't understand?

only--

Some of the ministers looked at Luo Shu, and some looked at Shen Tingnan, only to see that the two had the same expression, and finally understood that this matter was planned by them.

Throughout history, women were not allowed to study, let alone interfere in state affairs.

Now a female emperor suddenly appears, and there are many voices of opposition.

"Wait a minute!"

Qianxi turned around and saw the tutor coming out.

Before the tutor could speak, Shen Tingnan had him taken away.

The Grand Tutor was dragged away, still shouting, "A woman cannot be emperor. This is tantamount to disrupting social order!"

Seeing Shen Tingnan's direct use of force to suppress the situation, others who had opinions dared to be angry but dared not speak out.

The crown prince died, the second prince left the capital, and the remaining princes were young and insignificant, and their mother's families were weak, so they were no match for Jiang Li and others.

The coronation ceremony went smoothly.

The ministers who could not accept the empress threatened to commit suicide, but Qianxi did not want to kill herself and did not imprison anyone. She let her go home to rest as if she was on sick leave.

More people, especially the younger generation, are passionate and enthusiastic, have strong ability to accept new things, and know how to adapt to the times.

Luo Shu controlled the government, Shen Tingnan held the military power, and with Jiang Li, a person of royal blood, in charge, anyone with a little bit of common sense knew that they could not touch Qian Xi.

The pedantic ministers were making a desperate attempt, while those who were watching from the sidelines waited for this group of people to rush into the flames and leave a vacant seat for themselves, watching this big show quietly.

The appearance of the empress was like a stone falling into the water, causing ripples.

Ordinary people have no way of changing this fact, and the literati can only write a few words with emotion. Qianxi doesn't care about any opposition.

During Qianxi's reign, he went to the north to comfort the victims, went to the battlefield to annihilate the enemy, and went to the south of the Yangtze River to control floods. His civil and military achievements were obvious to all, and the people inside and outside the court gradually shut up their mouths of secret criticism.

Qianxi also went against public opinion to build a girls' school and appointed female officials, which greatly improved the status of women. The beneficiaries of male power strongly opposed it, and Jiang Li secretly used bloody means to suppress it, which allowed the implementation of these laws.

Qianxi asked: "Do we have to kill someone?"

Jiang Li wiped the blood off the tip of the knife and said, "You don't like killing, so let me do the bloody things."

Later, many women benefited from it, the people's strength of the Great Zhou was developed to the maximum extent, and the country prospered.

When the country is prosperous and the people are strong, and when the country is peaceful and the people are safe, who cares whether the emperor is a man or a woman?

Qianxi reigned for twenty years and died due to exhaustion.

When Qianxi passed away, only Jiang Li was by her side.

Jiang Li asked her, "We have been married for more than 20 years. Have you ever loved me?"
