  The maids of Cining Palace stood guard at the gate of the palace, only when they saw Bai Yitang and Qin Wenyin entering the palace gate, they hurried up to meet them, bowed their knees and saluted: "The servants have seen Bai Daxia, Mrs. Qin, Master Gu and Mrs. Gu."

   The four of them hurriedly returned their salutes, avoiding the people behind the roadside Rong to go over first.

The palace maid bowed her knees and smiled and said, "The queen mother has been thinking about Miss Gu early in the morning, so she asked the servants to wait at the gate of the palace, saying that Mrs. Qin and Mrs. Gu will be led to the back palace as soon as they arrive. It's still a while before we leave the banquet, wait. It's never too late to start."

   Having said that, he led the two of them to the soft sedan chair that was sitting on the side.

Seeing that the two were hesitant, the palace maid explained with a smile: "The empress dowager is sympathetic, the old ladies from all the prefectures have entered the palace in soft sedan chairs this year. of."

   The palace maid said softly, "Madam and madam, please don't make it difficult for us."

   Qin Wenyin and Li Baolu went to the Cining Palace in a soft sedan chair. As for Bai Yitang and Gu Jingyun, they should walk and go where they should go.

  Li Baolu got into the sedan chair holding An An who was looking around with her head turned. The Mid-Autumn Palace banquet, Li Baolu didn't want to enter the palace, but the Queen Mother sent someone to pass the word in advance, she wanted to see An An and Qin Wenyin.

   Gu Jingyun guessed something, and after talking to Li Baolu, they entered the palace wearing new clothes.

  The Cining Palace was very quiet, completely different from the lively scene in front of the palace. The palace maid explained in a low voice, "The guests are all in the Queen's Palace."

The mention of    was unnecessary, but the maid still mentioned it, she knew that these two guests were different from others.

  Otherwise, the Queen Mother would not have a special opinion on them. You must know that the Queen Mother has disappeared for half a year, not even the old lady of the same age as the Queen Mother who came to the palace to ask her for peace.

  The palace maid respectfully led the two of them into the Cining Palace, then stopped outside the door, and someone inside took them in.

  The Empress Dowager was dressing up, when the mammy just inserted a phoenix hairpin on her head, looked at it and found that there was no problem before nodding with a smile, "Miss, look, are you still satisfied?"

  The Queen Mother looked at the clear person in the mirror, and smiled slightly: "Yes, the diorama sent by An'an is just for use. It's not like our bronze mirrors are blurry."

  Mamma smiled and should be.

   "But bronze mirrors also have the benefits of bronze mirrors. Sometimes it's not beautiful if you see too clearly."

  Mamma smiled without saying a word, bowed and stepped aside. The personal maid outside just came in to report, "Niangniang, Mrs. Qin and Mrs. Gu are waiting in the front hall with Miss Gu."

   "Why be so unfamiliar, invite them to the back, Chunxi is breastfeeding, so she will not serve her tea, and bring her a hot bowl of goat milk."

   The palace maid responded, Qin Wenyin and Li Baolu were immediately led to the outer room, and the queen mother walked out of the inner room to meet them.

  Li Baolu was about to kneel while hugging An An, and the Queen Mother immediately raised her hand and said, "There is no need to be more polite, come here and help Mrs. Qin and Mrs. Gu up."

  Li Baolu insisted on hugging An An and kowtowed to the Queen Mother, and then sat down on the chair under Qin Wenyin's head.

  The Empress Dowager first put her eyes on An An, seeing her looking straight at her with her round eyes, not only not afraid of life, but also screaming from her with open hands.

  The already hardened heart of the Queen Mother could not help softening, and she waved: "Hurry up and take a look at me."

  Li Baolu hugged An An and stepped forward, half-sitting on the couch and handing the child over to her.

  The Queen Mother took it directly, only to feel her arm sinking. She couldn't help but narrow her eyes with a smile, "Oh, this is really heavy, has it been more than six months?"

   "Six months and eleven days."

"It looks like an eight or nine-month-old child, and it's really strong." The queen mother smiled and said: "Like the prince, Ben Gong remembers that the prince was strong and naughty when he was a child, just like a calf, hey. Yo, no one can control him. His father, the emperor, was frail since he was a child, and he was happy to see his strong body, but this made him trouble. Ben Gong remembered that he entered the palace one year, and the palace people ran away without watching him. When I got to the imperial garden, I directly pulled out the chrysanthemum in the imperial garden, so angry that his imperial grandfather wanted to whip him..."

  The Queen Mother said this with a faint smile, looked at An An and smiled and said: "This child is lucky and well-bred, and I heard that Qinghe is also very fond of her. Every morning, you put her on her neck and go out shopping?"

Li Baolu was a little embarrassed, but smiled and said, "This child is very domineering. Before we only took her to play in the garden, she went to the garden once a day. Later, her father accidentally took her out the door. , then she must go out for a walk every day, otherwise she can cry until the sky falls, so her father can't do anything..."

   "That's what you're used to," the Queen Mother smiled: "But it's a good thing to be able to get used to the child, I'm afraid that you won't dare to get used to the child..."

   That's what happened to her and the prince back then. Taisun was so healthy and lively. Don't she and her son want to get used to him?

   But in such a situation, thinking about the child has become a luxury, and they can only press him to be sensible.

  The Empress Dowager touched An An's head and smiled at Li Baolu: "I saw your book at the emperor's place. It's well written, but it's always unfinished. Do you still want to write it down?"

   "No plans yet."

   "Is everything in the book true?"

   "It's all from Qiongzhou."

The queen mother sighed, "Women in the world are too difficult. The status of women in the previous dynasties was not weak. There were even female generals. Even if the official position was low, she was also ranked. The evil spirits that have arisen require women to wear a hat when they go out, otherwise it will damage her virtue. Later, when the king in the court becomes more dazed and the courtier becomes more incompetent, the **** to the woman is even deeper. The husband's family fights for a chastity archway is an honor..."

   Seeing Baolu's surprise, she smiled and said, "Why, I don't think Ben Gong is the one who wants to say these words?"

  Li Baolu bowed her head in embarrassment.

  Yes, the Queen Mother is the mother of the country, and her words and deeds represent the great Chu and the attitude of the royal family. It is obviously inappropriate for her to support women like this.

  The Queen Mother didn't care: "Ben Gong's attitude is not a secret, it's just that you are young and don't know."

   After saying that, he looked at Qin Wenyin and said with a smile, "Wen Yin should know."

   Qin Wenyin got up and bent her knees slightly, "Yes."

The queen mother nodded slightly, pressed her hand to let her sit down, turned her head and continued to say to Baolu: "More than a hundred years ago, Empress Wenxiao ordered Songshan Academy and Qingxi Academy to open women's schools. It was difficult. After more than 30 years It was only when more people accepted women's studies, and every household in Beijing was willing to send their daughters and granddaughters to the academies, and then women's schools gradually emerged. And in your mother-in-law's generation, women's schools were the most popular."

"It was only when I was studying that women's studies picked up. At that time, what we wanted to study was women's history, outstanding women from ancient times to now, stupid women." The Queen Mother looked at her with bright eyes. There was no obstruction, because Ben Gong knew that the more Ben Gong blocked, the more thoroughly the women's school would be withdrawn. So Ben Gong was indifferent, but this does not mean that Ben Gong has forgotten the original intention."

   "You showed the book on the emperor's book, Ben Gong. You are very kind, but what Ben Gong wants to tell you is not enough."

  Li Baolu opened her mouth slightly.

The empress dowager hugged An An and whispered: "Bengong does not agree with your second request. If you want to set up a technical school, you can only do it yourself. Chunxi, you must know that the people standing up now are all men. You If they run the school themselves, they may not think much about it, and if the school is run by the imperial court, then most of the matter will not happen."

  Li Baolu then understood why the Queen Mother told her so much, she was explaining it to her.

   She thought about it and nodded.

  The Queen Mother is willing to come forward to explain in person, which shows their sincerity.

  Li Baolu got up and bowed her knees and said, "Chunxi understands, Niangniang can rest assured, I will tell Your Majesty to withdraw the second rule when I turn around."

  The Queen Mother smiled slightly, glanced at Mammy, and smiled at Baolu: "Although it can't be named after the imperial court, this palace is willing to help you."

   She smiled and said, "After all, Ben Gong is also a daughter."

The mammy held up a sandalwood box, and the queen mother handed it over to Li Baolu: "This is the intention of this palace, don't refuse, running a school is not that simple, and it requires a lot of money. You and Qinghe have such a thin family background. Impossible to bear."

  Li Baolu took it after thinking about it, knelt down and thanked the Queen Mother.

  The Empress Dowager lifted her up with one hand and said, "It's good that you can understand this palace and the emperor."

Li Baolu knew that the emperor had the meaning of Zen, and wanted to announce it at the Mid-Autumn Festival Palace Banquet. Li Baolu felt that it was a bit unkind to delay the promise left by the emperor to the next generation. Anyway, there was only one last promise left. I remembered one, so I wrote a book to the emperor.

   And the promise she wants is simple and simple, and it is neither simple nor simple.

   Simple is to amend a law, not simple because it involves politics.

  Li Baolu asked the emperor to revise the household registration law to relax the conditions for female households, and at the same time to relax the rights of female households to inherit property.

  There are female households in Dachu, but there are only two types of female households in Dachu, and the audit is very strict.

   First, parents have no sons, only daughters, who can recruit son-in-law to inherit the family. At this time, the household registration is female household.

   However, if a female household is established, half of the property must be handed over to the public.

Second, the widow has no children, but is unwilling to return to her parents’ home or remarry, she can set up a female household, but the yamen’s review is more stringent in this case. Ninety-nine out of 100 cases will not pass, because she has to The female yamen will not only interrogate her husband's family, but also confiscate two-thirds of her property.

   Therefore, the female households in Dachu were almost cut off. In the first case, it was obvious that the son-in-law was recruited, but in order not to hand over the half of the property, the son-in-law was recruited only in private.

   Therefore, there are often cases where a woman's parents die, and her son-in-law sells his children and sells his wife's property.

  Because as a husband, he really has the right to sell his wife and children.

   But if a man is a son-in-law according to the law, his status is lower than that of his wife, and he has no right to sell his wife, let alone possess her property.

   Because his son's inheritance is one step ahead of him.

  What Li Baolu mentioned was to relax the standards for female households. Even ordinary women can set up female households, as long as they can pay the taxes.
