Like Pearl and Jade - Chapter 91

The first imperial examination after Jin Yang ’s pro-government, there were several amazing characters. After their articles were published, they caused countless people to chase and craze. It was really beautiful and attracted countless people.

But no one can think of it, this time the Imperial Examination turned out to be a shocking event.

The world knows that the imperial examinations have always been the world of men, and there have been few examples of women entering the dynasty as officials. It was the female emperor who was in power in history, and only reused several female officials around him.

However, this time the imperial examination revealed that the second-class biography was a woman.

You should know that before the hometown exam, every candidate will search without taking off his clothes, but he will also search, not to mention various investigations related to moral reputation, but under such a strict system, a woman has mixed in. .

Some people scolded this woman for corrupting Chao Gang, and some suspected that some of them were corrupt and fraudulent, so that a woman could appear as a man in Zhaoyang Palace. Everyone was busy criticizing the woman, especially the literati students, as if they had been insulted by the heavens. They jumped up and down to express their dissatisfaction with the matter.

Everyone has forgotten that he has so much adoration, worship, and even longing for this second-tier biography not long ago.

After hearing this, Gu Rujiu disagreed with the literati who jumped up and down, but instead became interested in the second-legendary.

“My Dafeng’s imperial examinations have always accepted talents from all over the world, but whoever said that talents must be men?” Gu Rujiu sneered with a sneer. “Speaking of these, these literati just think that women can’t stand in that position, It shouldn’t be standing there. ”

When Jin Yang heard Gu Rujiu’s words, he smiled and said, “How long do you think this matter should be handled?”

“I don’t care about these things,” Gu Rujiu hummed. “You should do the things that bother your mind. I’m only responsible for the beautiful flowers and eating and drinking.”

The biggest crime of Zhang Tai was not to participate in the imperial examination as a woman, but as a woman, but a man with a household registration. He also came to participate in the imperial examination. If he is seriously investigated, it is the crime of bullying the king. If someone could not get along with her, only this charge was needed, and Zhang Tai would no longer be able to turn over.

Jin Yang smiled helplessly: “How can you be like him after you have grown strong?”

“That can only blame you,” Gu Rujiu raised his cheek with one hand and squinted at him with a smile. “Who told you to use me like this?”

“Really?” Jin Yang approached Gu Rujiu with an innocent face. “How come I don’t know when I’m used to you.”

Gu Rujiu held his face and looked at it from side to side, pulling with his hands: “Thick cheeks.”

The close court attendant, who has long been accustomed to the emperor’s way of getting along, looked at his toes calmly, trying to make a flower bloom on the toes.

He Ming finally knew why the old fox, Bai Xian, would rush to the queen’s side, and the emperor’s enthusiasm for the queen, there was no difference between serving before the queen and before his majesty.

He used to think that Bai Xian made a faint move. The queen would be spoiled for a while. Men are greedy and lustful. They can be kind to this woman today, and they can be kind to that woman tomorrow. Unlike ordinary women, but waiting in front of the queen, it is not as good as the queen.

But now that Bai Xian was waiting for the queen, he not only got the favor before the queen, but even his majesty also valued him again. The incident of bribing the Sima family was also exposed.

I knew that this kind of unprofitable person could not do this kind of thing that harmed others.

“It’s a bit of a meaning for this second-handed masquerade,” Gu Rujiu said suddenly. “Where is she now?”

Jin Yang said: “The situation is so high that it should have been put in jail.” He actually did not care too much about this matter, but the outside world was too violent and he had to pay attention to it.

This kind of farce appeared in the first imperial examination after pro-government. His heart was not too happy, and because of this, he saw the power of the writer’s pen.

Sometimes the pen is too powerful, which is not a good thing for the emperor.

Jin Yang didn’t touch Gu Rujiu’s delicate palm for a moment, his expression gradually became more serious.

“Anyway, she is a woman, I call her into the palace to see it, is it okay?” Gu Rujiu smiled at Jin Marting and turned a blind eye to his serious expression.

“Okay, if you want to see her, declare her entering the palace.” Jin Yang knew that she must be curious about the second-legged “disguise as a man” because in reality, it is too rare for a woman to play a man. It’s not a small talk book, as long as you wear a man’s clothes, everyone will be blind, and treat the charming girl as a man.

Heavenly jail has always been a place where delinquents are detained. Zhang Tai sits in the dark cell, listening to the prisoners around or talking, or shouting injustice. He ca n’t help but hug his knees and curl up into a ball.

Seeing her like this, the female prisoner in the same cell mocked her and said, “It’s hard to go out when you get in here. You can be patient and dare to commit the crime of bullying the king.” After that, she glanced up and down Zhang Tai again. Fan then shook his head and said with emotion, “If you are not in a place with me, I would also think you are a man.”

Zhang Tai glanced at her without speaking.

“Yo,” the female prisoner raised her eyebrows with a smile. “You guys are good at everything. It’s not good at this point. It’s clean and arrogant. It’s dust-free. In fact, living in the world, who is not the reincarnation of the grains.

Zhang Tai looked at the female prisoner, and for a long time he was not reconciled; “This worldly man can make meritorious service, why can’t we women?”

The female prisoner’s face was slightly dull, and she sighed for a moment before saying, “How can the world be unfair, but what can you do?” Daughter, helpless. ”

Zhang Tai saw that the woman was about fifty years old, and her facial features were very beautiful. However, because of the hard life in the prison and the fact that she often went out to work, she looked very haggard. She did n’t know what serious crime she had committed and was detained here. Place, “What crime did you … why have you been detained here?”

In her view, the female prisoner’s amiable appearance did not look like a traitor.

“I …” The female prisoner smiled and shook her head. “I was stupid, there was nothing to mention.”

Zhang Tai also wanted to ask again. After seeing a few prison prison officers leading a blue-clad **** to this side, he suddenly dared not say more, but carefully watched these people get closer and closer, until she was where The door of the prison stopped.

“You’re Zhang Tai?” The blue **** looked at her, his expression unhappy.

“It’s right underneath.” Zhang Taisui didn’t know what was going on, but he didn’t dare to neglect and got up and gave a big gift to the blue eunuch.

“Well.” The blue **** nodded. “The queen wants to summon you. You come with our family.”

Queen? ! Zhang Tai’s eyes widened in amazement, and he looked at the blue **** in disbelief. How could the queen want to see her?

The female prisoner who had originally shrunk in the corner heard the word “Queen”, and her body trembled. She looked up at Zhang Tai and slowly lowered her head.

“Can Mr. Zhang ride a horse?” Bai Xian looked at Zhang Tai, not calling her girl, but Mr.

“Academy professors have been riding horses. Although they haven’t learned well yet, they can still walk.” Zhang Tai came out of the prison and saw that there was an imperial guard in armor standing outside, and the awe was even more in his heart.

“Since that is the case, please ask Mr. Zhang to mount the horse.” Bai Xianli rode on his horseback and bowed his head to Zhang Taidao, who was standing in the same place.

“Yes.” Zhang Tai turned up after saluting Bai Xian. Her words and deeds were very free and easy, and she did not see the squeamishness of the half-girl.

Seeing this, Bai Xian had a bottom in his heart. This Zhang Tai was afraid that he would be raised as a boy since he was young, otherwise he would not be able to do such a natural move.

Where does Zhang Tai know what Bai Xian thinks, anyway, it seems to her that the queen wants to summon her, which is already a big thing. Before she entered Beijing, she heard the love story between the emperor and the queen. In the story, the emperor is infatuated and gentle, and the queen is beautiful and delicate. The two are a couple made in heaven and blessed by heaven.

She did not believe in ghosts and goddesses and scoffed at these rumors, but she believed in the deep feelings between the empress and the two. So for the queen empress who hasn’t met, she has a little more longing and yearning.

When they arrived at Baihumen, a group of people got off their horses. Zhang Tai followed Bai Xian and listened to him introduce some rules in the palace, secretly keeping these in his mind.

When I looked at this magnificent palace again, I only felt that the rules were strict and overwhelming.

Bai Humen is a long distance away from Qiankun Palace. Zhang Tai didn’t know how long he had bowed his head before he heard Bai Xiandao in front: “Mr. Zhang, Qiankun Palace is here.”

She looked up and saw a magnificent palace standing in front of her. A plaque was hung on the front door of the palace, and the words Qiankun Palace were written on it. These three words were magnificent and magnificent.

Entering the gate, Bai Xian straightly took the people outside the Zichen Hall. The person who was outside the palace was Qiu Luo, and he said, “Miss Qiuluo, the queen’s empress wants to see you.”

Qiu Luo smiled at him, and then nodded slightly at Zhangtai, before saying: “Please wait a moment.”

Zhang Tai thought in a trance, that even the maiden in front of the empress queen was like a fairy, and I wonder how beautiful and majestic the empress queen was.

Not long afterwards, she saw the pretty maiden just came out, with a smile on her face.

“The lady told you to go in.” Qiuluo made a gesture of invitation.

“There is Lao Qiulao girl.” Bai Xian Zhao Qiulao smiled politely, and then turned to Zhang Taidao, “Mr. Zhang please follow me.”

After stepping into the Zichen Hall, Zhang Tai only felt the dark fragrance in the hall, and the decoration inside the house seemed like a fairy palace, and he was suddenly at a loss. When she entered the inner hall, she saw the woman in red sitting for the first time, and stayed for a while before returning to the gift. “Student Zhang Tai, have seen the empress queen.”

She hasn’t been honoured yet, and there is nothing wrong with claiming to be a student.

“You’re Zhangtai?” Gu Rujiu looked at the girl who was bending over and staring at herself. If she didn’t already know that the other party was a woman, she would never believe that the other party was a man in disguise.

I don’t know if the other person looks too much like a man, even a little bulge between the throats, like a man’s throat knot, but it is not so obvious compared to ordinary men.

Also, her shoulders are wide, her body is burly, her **** are not knowing if she is deliberately bound or not full, she looks like an ordinary man, not seeing the characteristics of a woman.

“Student is exactly.” Zhang Tai didn’t know the queen’s lady wanted to summon her intention, so she would answer whatever the other party asked.

“I’ve read the article you wrote, and it’s very talented,” Gu Rujiu gave her a seat. “Especially the content you mentioned in the article about water conservancy is very interesting.”

Unexpectedly, the queen’s mother and daughter even appreciated her article. Zhang Tai was agitated and repeatedly said: “Student is so sparse, so that the mother and daughter smiled.”

“No, you are a rare talent, even Your Majesty once praised your article personally.” Gu Rujiu shook his head and sighed, looking at Zhang Tai felt a pity, if this person is a boy, he must be able to be in Korea It’s a pity to make something …

Zhang Tai knew what the Queen Mother ’s words did not say. She remembered her current situation and felt despair.

“Can you tell me about this palace, why do you want to dress up as a boy and come to participate in the imperial examination?” Gu Rujiu thought for a while. “If there is any excuse, this palace is willing to intercede for you under your majesty.”

Bai Xian, who was standing in the corner, looked at Zhang Tai enviously. The girl was really lucky. On weekdays, the queen’s mother and daughter seldom pleaded for someone else.

Zhang Tai’s heart moved, he said his past 1510.

In general, when she was not born, her father died unexpectedly. In order to save her family, Nakata, she lied that she was a male and wrote her gender as a male when she registered her household registration. Later, when her mother remarried to a country gentry, she began to study and learn Chinese characters, because she was so talented, she was admitted to an academy, and then the township examinations …

She was raised as a boy since she was a child, and she had always regarded herself as a boy until she was ten years old. Later, she realized that she was different from a real boy. When she participated in the temple test that day, she even thought that if she could show her ambitions, she would be a boy in this life, and it would be worthwhile not to marry.

However, she did not expect her identity to be dismantled. Not only did she commit the crime of bullying the king, but she might also involve the family and the academy, so she was terrified and wished to die.

She is not afraid of dying, only afraid that dying will affect her family and the gentlemen of the college.

But she felt unwilling again, why can’t she enter the court as an official, just because she is the daughter’s house? Because they are daughters, they cannot inherit Tiansan? Because it’s a daughter, should I marry someone? Just because she is a daughter, can she not have ambition or talent?

She was not reconciled but helpless.

After listening to Zhang Tai ’s life experience, Gu Rujiu felt that Zhang Tai had a gender cognitive impairment. Although she accepted the fact that she was a woman, she always thought that she was a boy before she was ten years old, so her way of speaking and doing things, They didn’t use “what women should be” to restrain themselves.

Gu Rujiu has always felt that the so-called male and female thinking is deceptive, and there is no difference between men and women in their thoughts and personalities. However, later men wanted women to be delicate, and hoped that women would keep themselves safe. Once again, I said to the woman, what should your woman be like, what is your woman doing right, beyond this frame, it is a bad manner, it is against the woman’s duty.

The woman gradually loses herself in this frame, thinking that the woman should be like this, and then forgets to jump out of this frame, and also teaches other women not to jump out.

They would say that outside the box is terrible and unethical.

Gu Rujiu himself stood in the middle of the frame, looking at the scenery outside the frame, but did not take a step at Lei Chi. So she admired a woman like Zhang Tai in her heart.

A talented person is worthy of respect, no matter whether he is a man or a woman.

“You … are a very talented person,” Gu Rujiu looked at Zhang Taidao, “I remember that in history, there have been women as officials, women as the precedent for patrol?”

Zhang Tai got up and saluted Gu Rujiu: “There is a precedent for Hui Niangniang.”

It’s just a flash in the pan, just like a small wave in the sea, not too many ripples.

Gu Rujiu nodded, and said after a moment of silence: “You go back first.” She turned to Bai Xiandao, “Bai Gongpai, send Mr. Zhang back, tell the guards of the Heavenly Prison, don’t embarrass him.

Listening to the Queen Mother calling Zhang Tai “Mr. Zhang”, Bai Xian had a count in her heart.

Out of the Qiankun Palace, Bai Xian smiled and said to Zhang Tai: “Mr. Zhang is a blessed person. There will always be a blessing after death. Please don’t worry.”

Zhang Tai is not a fool, and naturally understands what Bai Xian meant. She turned around and performed a big gift in the direction of Qiankun Palace. After three prayers, she followed Bai Xian and left.

Above the court, the civil servants are arguing about Zhang Tai. Most people think that Zhang Tai ’s crime of bullying the king is unforgivable. And some people think that Zhang Tai is a rare talent, and she cannot be denied everything because she is a woman.

The people on both sides insisted on their own words. What surprises everyone the most is that even His Majesty did not immediately make a decision on this case, but let the civil servants discuss it. It seems that he has not made up his mind about this Zhang Tai.

Most of the people who can stand here are not true mediocrities. They have also read Zhang Tai ’s answer sheet, knowing that she is a rare talent, and many people think that she has made a big difference before even knowing that she is a woman. for.

It’s a pity that the world is unpredictable. Who can guess that the person with this talent is actually a woman?

“Your Majesty, you thought that Zhang Tai ’s move was to corrupt your dynasty and affect your reputation. You should be punished for such a crime of bullying the king,” a civil servant said. “Otherwise, more women will follow this woman in the future. , Leading to chaos in the world, this case must not be opened. ”

“Well,” Jin Yang looked at the civil official and thought about it, “but this woman is so talented, wouldn’t it be a pity to behead?”

The civil servant said: “Your Majesty, I am full of talents, how can there be a lack of talents, but the rules can not be disordered.” The woman exams what kind of imperial examination, just stay at home.

As soon as this remark came out, those who disagreed with him began to pinch again.

After these civil servants had almost pinched each other, Jin Marting only said: “An ancient literary king is thirsty if he is thirsty, and the good men of the world do not care about men and women. As long as he is willing to help the literary king, he will treat him with kindness. If you ca n’t accommodate a talented woman, how can the world view me, and how can future generations view us? ”

The civil servants who originally proposed to decapitate Zhang Tai were dumbfounded. Hearing this meaning from His Majesty, it seems that they did not intend to pursue Zhang Tai?

Dafeng did have a historical record of female generals fighting to kill the enemy. One hundred years ago, Gao Luoguo invaded, and the general who defended the city died. His wife, in order to guard the city gate, took control of his husband. Later, she was superior in ability to let the soldiers obey, and finally not only guarded the city gate, but also led troops to help the neighboring counties retreat from the enemy. This female general was one of the 100 famous generals of Dafeng. The official worshipped the general of the second-ranking town army. He was praised by the Dafeng monarch as a female hero.

Thinking of this, Dafeng’s civil servants have a bit of trouble in their hearts. Is it not enough for them to appear as a woman playing a military commander’s face, but also a woman to hit their civil officer’s face?

But at this time, no one can stand up and say, yeah, as men we are jealous and virtuous, and jealous of a woman is better than us, so we want your majesty to cut her off.

Don’t care if you are really jealous, then stand up again and spread it to the ears of future generations, that is, he is jealous of a woman’s talents.

For dozens of years as an official, the picture shows a Liufang Baishi, who does not care about his feathers?

Anyway, this woman can’t become a climate. What’s the point of jumping their feet in a hurry? Anyway, even if she enters the DPRK, there won’t be many opportunities for promotion. The pheasant fell into the Phoenix Nest, and she could not become a Phoenix even if she tried harder.

“Your Majesty said very much that although Zhang Tai’s move was guilty, but his crimes were justifiable, he asked His Majesty to take it lightly.” The official who helped Zhang Tai speak at this opportunity.

This part belongs to people who are more advanced in their thinking and do not stick to stereotypes. Gu Zhiyuan also belongs to this representative team.

“Secretary!”

“Secretary!”

A military attache followed up and expressed support for Zhang Tai with practical actions. With Zhang Tai striking the official’s face, they inexplicably felt a little relieved.

The final conclusion is that Zhang Tai’s felony is exempt, but the misdemeanor is not forgivable, so she was dispatched to a remote county town as a county magistrate to benefit people in remote areas.

This remote place has complicated ethnic groups, backward cultural agriculture, and severe malaria. Generally, people who are a little off the road will not come here to become officials.

So they all rejoiced, Zhang Tai’s reputation was preserved, but he went to a bitter cold place. People who are more disgusted with her are also very satisfied, because in this kind of place, the county magistrate who went to either died of illness or tried to find a way to leave. Zhang Tai, a woman, how long can she stay in such a place?

Perseverance may result in death from illness. If you do not persevere, you will not be able to keep your credit. People in this environment will not matter.

But no one knows, when Zhang Tai took office, the Queen Mother gave her a doctor.

The events of the palace test finally came to an end. After a period of time, the events of Zhangtai were gradually forgotten by everyone, and the former scene was restored to the North Korea.

When everything was stable, Jingcheng thundered again. This thunder was also related to Li Family, the first-class family in Beijing.

A woman accused Li Guangji of using her daughter to serve as her progeny, hiding the sky from the sky.

When this happened, the Manchu Dynasty was in an uproar. Isn’t Li Guangji’s son-in-law Li Huaigu, one of the famous sons in Beijing?

But when Wu Shi was pregnant with Li Huaigu, but many people saw her having a big belly, how could she be a heir to her?

If this was done by Li Guangji himself, do the Wu family and the Wu family know?

More importantly, Li Huaigu has grown up so big, no one has stood up and said something for so many years, and now someone suddenly makes such a thing. If there is nothing stupid, who would believe it?

When things went up to the court, Li’s face was swept away, and Li Guangji even vowed that this was simply nonsense, and asked the emperor to thoroughly investigate Yunyun.

“How can mothers not know if the child is for themselves?” Jin Yang looked at Li Guangji, who was full of grievances and anger. “Would you like to ask Mrs. Li to help investigate this case?”
