Chapter 183: Master of Keeping Balance Lin Qingyan
"Thank you, Lord." Lin Qingyan and Li Feng knelt down together.
"Your Majesty, please think twice. There has never been a precedent of men serving as officials in our country's dynasties!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, according to what Lin Qingyan said, even if her husband is extremely smart, it is absolutely impossible to appoint him as a military supervisor."
"Your Majesty, how can a man serve as an official in the court?"
"Your Majesty..."
"Your Majesty, please think twice."
Many officials came out to refute.
Not to mention other people, even someone like Ling Yao who likes to take unconventional approaches and do things unconventionally was shocked by Mu Yunsheng's decision to give his son an official title.
However, before Mu Yunsheng could express his opinion, Lin Qingyan stood up with her hands on her hips, standing in the middle of the crowd angrily, pointing at them and cursing: "You guys! You can only point fingers at others, saying that men should be like this and men should not be like that. But who stipulates that men have to live the way you expect? Why should men be labeled by you? Why should men's lives be decided by you? What qualifications do you have to demand that men must live according to your wishes? Is it because you are shameless?"
The more she spoke, the angrier she became, and her voice became louder and louder, making the ears of everyone present buzz.
"You are also born from under the crotch of a man, so how come your words are like a sharp sword piercing a man? Oh, I get it, you are just jealous that I have a husband who is extremely smart, right? You can't stand the wise, brave, suave, and handsome queen appointing my husband as an official in the court."
"Hey, I'm not saying that if you have a jealous heart, you might as well find a smart husband. Her Majesty is so wise. As long as the husband you find is smart enough and can solve the country's problems, Her Majesty will definitely give them an official position! But your husband is definitely not as smart as mine. After all, he is the number one man among women, Ling Nianxiao."
Although Lin Qingyan was a little shocked by the fact that Mu Yunsheng gave his baby an official title, when she heard these people's rebuttal, she jumped up and started cursing without saying a word.
These people's words reminded Lin Qingyan of how it took women in ancient times thousands of years to gain the status that modern women have. Even in modern times, there is still some subtle gender discrimination.
As a woman, although she has not experienced the hardships of the gradual rise of women's rights, she knows how difficult it is.
Now in a female-dominated kingdom in a different time and space, she saw how difficult it was for men. Like those women in the past, they were struggling to survive, and she felt heartbroken.
Now that she has seen the thread that can lead to gender equality, she must hold on tightly and not let this opportunity slip away.
Fang Luoji moved her lips. Even though she had a lot of experience, she had never seen a precedent of a man serving as an official in Jinguo Land, but she finally stopped talking.
Those officials were speechless after being rebuked by her, and they could do nothing but watch her take the subject back and praise her husband. Unable to win the argument with Lin Qingyan, these people went to argue with Mu Yunsheng.
"Your Majesty, this man must not be an official."
"Why not? You don't have a smart husband, do you? You are afraid that your husband can't become an official, so you prevent my husband from becoming an official."
Lin Qingyan jumped in front of her and confronted her.
Seeing Lin Qingyan in the hall not fearing power and arguing with the scholars for her husband, Mu Yunsheng's eyes were filled with relief, but at the same time there was a hint of bitterness in his heart.
Looking at all the civil and military officials in the court, she found that none of them could solve the problem. They were all creating problems. She was so troubled by them.
"enough!"
These people knelt down at the same time again.
"Just do as I say."
"Dismiss the court." Mu Yunsheng waved his hand and left first.
"Our emperor is wise and holy. Long live the emperor." Lin Qingyan was the first to kneel.
"Long live Her Majesty." All the ministers knelt down and shouted in unison.
Before everyone had gone far, Lin Qingyan looked around for Fang Luoji.
After finally finding her, I was stopped by the young woman next to her.
"You are a young girl, you don't know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is. You dare to say in the hall that Master Fang is nothing. Are you afraid now? Are you coming to Master Fang to beg for mercy? Let me tell you..."
Lin Qingyan didn't have that much time to listen to her nonsense. She wanted to go home quickly to accompany her dear husband to receive the imperial edict. She pushed her aside and saw Mr. Fang said to her, "Let's go."
Lin Qingyan's eyes widened. She hadn't even said a word yet, but Fang Luoji knew what she was going to do?
Fang Luoji took two steps and looked back to find Lin Qingyan still standing there in a daze, so he said, "Don't you have something to say to me?"
Lin Qingyan reacted and planned to turn around to look for Ling Yao, but Ling Yao came over by herself before she even had to look for her.
The three of them walked together, the atmosphere was extremely depressing, and no one dared to speak first. When they finally reached the palace gate, Lin Qingyan suddenly stopped, bowed deeply to Fang Luoji, and said, "Mr. Fang, I offended you just now in the hall. Can you please have a meal with me and clear up the misunderstanding between us?"
Fang Luoji secretly sighed in her heart that this woman was really flexible. Although she roughly knew what she was going to say to her, she was still very curious about what the other party was up to, so she nodded in agreement.
Ling Yao turned around and said with a big smile on her face: "Mr. Fang, my son-in-law has a very unconventional way of thinking and a casual style of doing things. You..."
Ling Yao felt too embarrassed to ask Fang Luoji not to mind those rude words just now, so she stopped talking halfway.
Hearing this, Fang Luoji's face darkened and he snorted coldly: "Humph, although I have experienced three dynasties, I have never put on any airs. Why, do I look like the kind of person who likes to care about things?"
In fact, Fang Luoji was still a little angry. She had given so much for the country and the people. Even the current queen had to give her some face. What was a mere deputy general?
Lin Qingyan knew that such a person was arrogant, so she immediately used a series of flattery skills: "Hey, Mr. Fang has served in the court for three dynasties, he must be an upright person and an honest official, and he must have sacrificed his life for the people of our country. How could he care about someone like me? Mr. Fang's mind must still be on national affairs. I think as long as I can make a contribution, Mr. Fang will definitely appreciate me, right?"
Even Fang Luoji, who was used to hearing nice words, had to admit that Lin Qingyan's words did make her feel better.
She nodded with a grim face.
Ling Yao listened to Lin Qingyan's flattering words while she was alone and disheveled in the breeze.
"Then Mr. Fang, would you please give me a favor?" Lin Qingyan said with a flattering smile.
"Let's go." Fang Luoji walked in front with a cold face, and when he turned his back to them, a smile appeared on his face. This woman had confronted so many people in the hall, so arrogantly, and now she kept praising herself here. This comparison was really refreshing.
Lin Qingyan watched her take a few steps and distance herself from Ling Yao, so she turned around and whispered to Ling Yao, "Of course, in my heart, my mother is the best person."
When Ling Yao heard this, she straightened her chest and raised her head, saying, "That's right." After that, she took a square step and walked towards the carriage.
Lin Qingyan looked at the two people's backs and thought to herself, it's a good thing she is a master at keeping things balanced.
He shrugged and jogged after the two.
