After the Tyrant Dressed As a Woman Disguised As a Man - Chapter 80
When Wang Bin changed the river course, what he had done was to benefit the country and the people, but soon after he insisted on doing this, a catastrophe occurred under his command.
Someone told Wang Bin that it was his fault. If it were not because he wanted to change the embankment, the situation would not be the same as it is now.
This is the disaster that God wants to punish him, punish him for his self-righteousness, and for this.
Otherwise, why doesn’t such a flood happen anywhere else, just like this on his land.
Although he believes that what he did was not wrong, if he did not do that at the time, it would definitely cause more serious consequences.
But looking at the people who lost their homes and loved ones, he began to waver again, doubting himself.
Could it be that God’s eyes were not pleasing to his eyes.
Therefore, during this period of time, he has been in a trance, an invisible pressure that this group of people can’t see, but the words of the emperor who has never met have made him affirmed.
Natural disasters were not what he wanted. He didn’t do anything to sorry the people during his life, and even sacrificed his brother, and he did not feel ashamed of what he did.
Although the disaster is still a shadow hovering above Wang Bin’s head, this shadow is no longer as huge as before, so invincible, and it seems that it will never dissipate.
Wang Bin choked up and said, “Thank you, Your Majesty.”
Qiao Qing said without much emotion: “Don’t rush to thank me.”
She said: “Although the natural disasters were not what Wang Qing wanted, it is an indisputable fact that the disaster happened this year. Have you ever done anything to apologize to the people? Naturally, I will arrange for people to check it out. If so, I will definitely not. It will tolerate it. If not, you need to be more careful to control the water and make up for the failure.”
What was going on, Qiao Qing felt that he would have no right to speak without investigating, but he was not used to hearing that Wang Bin’s natural disasters were returned to him.
All people are not gods, even saints will make mistakes, let alone Wang Bin.
Of course, if he really made a big mistake, Qiao Qing would not show mercy.
The son of Wang Bin said: “My father will never do anything to harm the people.”
Wang Bin immediately pushed him down: “Your Majesty, the dog is not sensible.”
Qiao Qing laughed: “This kid is smart, I think he can inherit his father’s inheritance, maybe he can be better than blue from the blue.”
Regardless of the great Wang Bin, Xiao Wang Bin is a celebrity in history. Although he said that he was standing on his father’s shoulders and relying on his father’s guidance, he lost his biological father at a young age and could still do such a project. For one’s own father is definitely not just a light-hearted sentence that can be done by his father.
There are so many inventors in the world, they must have left a lot of precious manuscripts for their children, and I have never heard too many news that their children are equally powerful.
Xiao Wangbin was praised by Qiao Qing, and immediately showed a very shy smile belonging to a young man.
He was praised by the emperor. How many people envied him when he said this.
The child looked completely different from the small portrait in his memory. Qiao Qing finally took his gaze back from the faces of the father and son, and stopped discussing right and wrong, but instead asked Wang Bin’s relevant treatment plan for the flood relief problem.
There is also Wang Bin’s manuscript about the embankment that has been spent more than ten years. She needs to take a look to understand the specific situation, listen to his explanation, and whether the idea and direction of the embankment are similar to the legend in memory. Works the same.
These are all serious political affairs, so Xiao Wang Bin was taken out and temporarily placed in the side hall.
Wang Bin didn’t bring much benefit to Qiao Qing. Instead, he scraped away a lot of money from Qiao Qing when he left.
This time the county under his rule was seriously affected, and he would have to spend a lot of money.
Every year the disaster-stricken places would think of ways to cry miserably and ask Qiao Qing for more money. Of course, this is because the disaster was not particularly serious. Local officials would hide some of the disasters, fearing that the emperor would be held accountable.
As an authentic engineering man, Wang Bin was very sincere in this respect. He did not exaggerate or conceal the facts, but gave Qiao Qing a very direct statistical data.
“These should be more than all, because some people were lost in this disaster, and some people were not registered on the household registration.”
Under his rule, all the permanent residents were registered, but things like household registration were recorded by manpower, and chaos would appear in some small villages.
And it’s like a place that has been hit harder by disasters. If all of your family members are dead, it would be difficult to count them if the people who knew them were not alive.
The billowing river is still flooding, and now there is no way for them to salvage a corpse from the river with human and material resources.
Some people have died and have not come to report. With so many people, it is inevitable that there will be loopholes in statistics.
Wang Bin didn’t dare to pat his chest and say that everyone was counted in it. He could only say that he was as accurate as possible to this number.
Very good, Wang Bin’s style is very pragmatic, obviously a very down-to-earth official with engineering style.
Qiao Qing calculated the number of people he gave and gave a very high amount for disaster relief, post-disaster reconstruction, and a considerable part of it for building new river embankments.
She said: “The people who are building the river embankment this time, let the victims come to the public to provide relief.”
She can understand how sad the people who have lost their homes are, but people always have to look forward, the dead will not be resurrected, and the living people should not live in this world without abandoning themselves.
As the prince of a country, it is even more unlikely that because of those people who have encountered misfortune, then a lot of winnings will be given to them to raise a bunch of rice bugs that do not produce or work.
If this is really the case, maybe some frantic people will cause disasters.
Wang Bin is good at water conservancy, but it does not mean that he is also very good in other management of people’s livelihood. Hearing what Qiao Qing said, his eyes lighted: “It is a wonderful way to provide disaster relief with work.”
Now the experience summed up on the shoulders of the predecessors is nothing more than good.
And no one will mention the theory, and the actual implementation process is more important.
“This job is not just for building river embankments. It can also be used by women and children who are seriously injured and have no strength.”
Of course, Qiao Qing will not force the elderly and children to do the same work as mature men, but these women who are skilled in knitting with their own hands will definitely be able to play their use.
“I will arrange for doctors to go there, and those women can be used as assistants to help take on some tasks of rescuing the wounded.”
When Wang Bin heard this, he became embarrassed: “Men and women are not easy to accept. Those women still want to marry.”
Qiao Qing immediately changed his face and scolded him: “Wang Aiqing dared to innovate boldly in the matter of dams, preaching the principles of nature, and the unity of nature and man, how can he be so ignorant and stubborn above the men and women’s defenses.”
From the generation of Qiao Qing’s grandfather, the royal family deliberately used some Confucian scholars in order to consolidate power.
The law of law is formulated to centralize power, and the Confucian three principles and five constants are also tools used by the monarch to centralize power. Of course, it is on the moral level.
The reason why women were restrained was because of the emperor’s restraint to his foreign relatives. Although the requirements for women were not so strict now, the status of the noble women was actually regressed a lot compared with the society that just founded the country.
As a woman, Qiao Qing must improve her status and allow her to control her rights if she shows herself to others in the future.
But this is not something that can be done with an open mouth, but it is very easy to steal power from women who are already in a disadvantaged position. Because officials control official careers and power, they suppress them from a high level, completely. It is a high-dimensional blow.
And women wanting to fight for power, in addition to promoting policies, they also have to keep up with their ideological aspects.
Otherwise, it really becomes a struggle for power and gains. In order to wash his hands and make soup for his own man, to be a good mother, he will give up everything and go back.
It’s not that people don’t have the right to choose their own lives, but that is in the context of freedom and equality. Nowadays, groups of men and wives are taken for granted, and women who are innocent and wronged have to commit suicide. In an environment where they can afford the lintel, what about free choice? It’s just a joke.
Nowadays, among these noble ladies in Beijing, there are some open-minded people, but the education they have received since childhood is in two directions. Compared with the land occupied by men, women’s rights are too small.
These things are the same as education. It takes years or even more than ten years to see whether the flowers that were watered carefully at the beginning will bear sweet or rotten fruits.
In addition to recruiting some male disciples, the schools that Qiao Qing built privately also valued girls who were abandoned by their parents.
After waiting for five or ten years, these talents will grow up enough to be used by her. Qiao Qing has already thought of opening imperial examinations to women.
Of course, these are empty talks now.
The reconstruction of the disaster is equivalent to overthrowing and rebuilding. In fact, the governance of each county will be different. Some cities are closed, and the traditional oppression of women is very severe, and some are looser and more free.
Those are all caused by the historical economy and other circumstances.
For example, the locals are mostly engaged in business, men are rushing to do business and women are staying at home to do housework, and the local atmosphere is particularly serious.
The land that Wang Bin manages is in the south of the Yangtze River. After the reconstruction is over, a large number of weaving businesses can be carried out. Those men will not do this, nor will they compete with women for the position of weavers, so they can be used as experimental sites.
There is also the medical treatment. The English in the palace is mainly for the nobles in the palace to see a doctor. It is necessary to understand some pulse conditions. After all, the imperial physicians are people with roots. Sometimes it is not easy to let them see private illnesses directly to the nobles. convenient.
Qiao Qing absolutely must work hard to take this opportunity to make the position of medical girl justified and respected by the world.
In the eyes of doctors, men and women are not distinguished, and they treat illnesses and save people. For what reason male doctors will be respected and women doctors will be pointed out and criticized privately.
Qiao Qing scolded Wang Bin for a dog-blood sprayer, and then took his mother and the very honorable woman in the palace and said it was something.
When Wang Bin confessed his guilt, he naturally did not dare to say that the woman was not at all bad. In fact, he was brought up by a widowed mother. Since childhood, the widow has kept up the housework, which is very hardworking.
It’s just that Wang Bin’s mother and wife are the kind of most traditional women. Good wives and mothers are gentle and generous, regard husband as the heaven and son as the heaven.
Wang Bin doesn’t think that women can do anything, he just thinks it will delay their marriage and affect their reputation.
Therefore, in Wang Bin’s view, if a woman cannot marry a child, it is very miserable, worse than death.
This is of course not his own thoughts, but the surrounding environment influences him to produce such cognition.
“What’s wrong with you?” Qiao Qing said this, but this time the tone was very sarcasm, “You just told a fact. But in the face of life, is the so-called reputation so important?”
What chastity archway, bad wind and evil spirits, are purely for the sake of fame and death.
Many things are nothing in front of precious lives.
There are also many widows in Qi. Their husbands are still alive, and some of them are even better than before.
Is it true that when a man dies, a woman should follow her to die for love. If she hadn’t given birth to a son, she wouldn’t be worthy of living in this world.
This is a **** rule, but as a man’s authority, from his own point of view, it is nothing more than a means to suppress people.
She knew things were difficult, but could it be a reason to give up? Of course not.
Qiao Qing left Wang Bin and was about to discuss some matters with Mrs. Bo and Mrs. Zhen.
She is a man, and some things should be done by the mother of the country and set an example for women. But now she doesn’t have a queen, so she can only arrange for these two people temporarily.
As for Princess Xiang that day, she is currently assigned to the cold palace by her, sitting on a cold bench, and is not qualified to participate in this matter.
Before Qiao Qing left, he left a message for Wang Bin: “I will go to discuss with the Bo Taifei, how the women should use them, how to deal with the reputation of these women, you slowly think about it, waiting for today, I hope Ai Qing can give Give me an answer sheet that satisfies me.”
As the local county guard, Wang Bin is an official with real power, and he can do more things locally than the emperor she is.
Many villagers may not know how powerful the emperor is, but even if it is a local snake, he must not be able to overpower Wang Bin, who has been a local county guard for many years.
After all, the emperor is far away, and the magistrate is not as good as the current one. As long as he is willing, he will be able to do it.
Seeing Wang Bin’s dignified expression, Qiao Qing’s voice became more and more cold: “If a doctor woman saves the wounded and saves countless lives, she will still be slandered, even rumored, ignorant and pedantic in Aiqing’s jurisdiction. People are forced to die, and if something like this occurs, Ai Qing can follow along and apologize for death!”
