Everyone Pampers the Small Blessing Who Has a Spatial Pocket! - Chapter 712
Chapter 712 The target of public criticism
Xuantianmen is a very special gate, where the imperial city, inner palace and ancestral temple meet, its effect is comparable to that of the Dengwen drum specially used by nobles.
The clan wives knelt there, which was equivalent to announcing to the whole world that Princess Yongchang was a person without talent and virtue.
This matter caused a lot of trouble back then, but it was limited to the inner palace, because the Queen Mother got the news at that time, and together with the late emperor, they quickly blocked the inside and outside of Xuantian Gate.
At that time, the first emperor was still not in a daze, and like her, he doted on Xiao Yaoguang and worried that she would be hurt.
At that time, Princess Yongchang was only twelve years old. She saw that someone proposed to restart the marriage system in order to maintain friendly relations with neighbors, turn hostility into friendship and reduce disputes.
But Princess Yongchang doesn’t understand why the war has to be at the expense of women’s marriage. Could it be that other methods can’t make peace talks?
What’s more, on this continent, Dachang is not a weak country, why should it be so?
So the owner of Yongchang County went to investigate and found that the people generally believed that this was the best way, because everyone believed that women only had the ability to bear children, which was their natural mission. Is it that important where to give birth to whom? Sacrificing them is tantamount to not sacrificing.
The first time she heard about this trend of public opinion, Princess Yongchang almost went crazy. She didn’t expect that the world would treat women so harshly and abnormally.
She believes that only by allowing more and more women to enter the center of power can they speak up for themselves and defend their lives.
“Yeah, I was naive at that time. I was as old as you, and I only thought that I was doing the right thing.” Mrs. Wang also laughed, and it was obvious that she hadn’t cared so much about this matter for a long time. “I thought it would be my father and brother, the emperor’s brother, or those grand tutors who stopped me. But after I brought it up, everyone was silent and didn’t give me an answer. Many wives have said that I have deceived the people with evil words and wanted to destroy Dachang, how can I be able to bear this crime?”
Those people were very panicked, thinking that Princess Yongchang wanted to roast them on the fire in order to fulfill his reputation as a virtuous person.
They said that since ancient times, men have dominated outside and women have dominated inside, and letting women go out to show their faces doesn’t it make them suffer?
They also said that having children is something they enjoy, how can a yellow-haired girl understand the joy of it, and still talk nonsense, thinking that she is saving them, but she does not know that she is trying to pull them out of their comfort zone and push them into the fire pit!
They also said that their father, brother, and son have spent their entire lives serving their country, and in the end, they have to be the ones who stabbed in the back and stole fame. They couldn’t do that, and they weren’t that vicious.
There is also an old woman whose head has been smashed. I want to ask the first emperor to take back the title of Yongchang and order her to be executed.
Fortunately, An Guogong acted vigorously and resolutely. The Guogong’s wife, the eldest lady of the Guogong Mansion, and the second lady directly entered the Xuantian Gate with guns.
The empress dowager and the first emperor, together with some concubines with strong natal family backgrounds in the inner palace, all guaranteed Yongchang, so this matter was suppressed.
But Princess Yongchang still knew the cause and effect, and was greatly shocked in his heart, depressed for a long time.
“Perhaps since then, Xiao Yaoguang has thought of leaving here.” The Queen Mother did not look at the expression of Mrs. Wang at the moment, but said to the dumbfounded Ayu, “Now, you still feel that you have done it yourself. Will a girls’ academy be as simple as imagined?”
