The emperor had no reaction after hearing this.
Just uttered a few words lightly:
"Go on."
Chen Wei took a deep breath, lowered his eyes, and continued in a sonorous and powerful voice:
"Secondly, women can also enter the government, business, and military, and can vote and participate in literary and martial arts competitions. They should not be confined to the harem, taking care of their husbands and raising children, just because they are women."
"Third, I hope my daughter will also have inheritance rights! Whether it's land, shops, or other inheritances, my daughter will have a share. Sons and daughters have equal inheritance rights!"
The above regulations are not easy to implement, and even in this era, they can be said to be a fantasy.
This is not something that can be changed by one person alone.
But Chen Wei is willing to be the first woman to apply for rights!
Someone has to do this, someone has to pay with blood and life, give everything, before things will change.
Only by changing can they realize that women can also have it, and only then will their consciousness awaken, and only then will there be a continuous stream of people who will continue to fight for power and everything that belongs to them.
"Equality of children?!"
"Enter the government or go into business?"
"Do you know what you are talking about?"
The emperor frowned, and the overwhelming majesty tried to drown the curtain like a tide, and there was not even a sound of breathing in the entire hall.
Chen Wei could even hear his own heart pounding.
She knows what she's talking about.
Facing the emperor's oppression, she suppressed the fear in her heart and raised her head calmly. The emperor's changeable face was reflected in her clear eyes.
"I understand what I am talking about more than ever before."
"If women are truly so fragile, incompetent, and cowardly, then why did His Majesty place the words 'Great Benevolence and Great Righteousness' on me when he summoned me? Why did he think we could quell the war?"
"When the country is peaceful and the people are safe, men hold power, acting as officials outside the country and heads of the household inside. Women are like golden sparrows, confined to the harem and relying on their husbands for survival."
"How is it that when the country is in turmoil, women are endowed with courage and strength, crowned with the words benevolence and righteousness, and can, with their weak bodies, resolve the feud between two countries?"
"Since women are responsible for the ruin of the imperial court, why can't we treat everyone equally when it comes to enjoying happiness and power? Your Majesty, could you please tell me?"
The emperor was shocked by Chen Wei's earth-shaking words.
He felt like someone had hit him hard on the back of the head, awakening the memory that he had deliberately forgotten.
At this moment, the aggressive Chen Wei standing in front of him with a calm and cold tone seemed to have turned into another person, the elder sister who had protected him and taught him martial arts since he was a child.
The eldest sister's mother was of humble origin, and she was never loved by the late emperor since childhood.
The late emperor then casually assigned his eldest sister to be raised by the then Concubine De, who was also his biological mother.
他与长姐的感情极好，他受欺负了，长姐会去替他出头，即使那个人是当时先皇最宠爱的皇子，长姐也会将他揍到跪地求饶。
Since he was a child, his eldest sister has always been in front of him in everything and blocked countless arrows for him.
But when my eldest sister was sixteen years old, the late emperor ordered her to marry the Huns.
Before leaving, the eldest sister said: "She is from the royal family, but she has never enjoyed the dignity of the royal family. Why is she the first to sacrifice when the country is in turmoil?"
"If the court belongs only to men, why should women bear the consequences?"
"If the court is divided between men and women, why don't women have any say?"
