Although all the girls can be regarded as talented women, they usually read poems, books, and poems about romance, and the works they write are all about sad spring and autumn. Even the common people girls are not touched by Yang Chun. Shui has never truly experienced the suffering of the people.
Let them find a way to solve the flood and drought problems that even the ministers of the court cannot solve
It’s simply a fool’s errand!
Queen Mother Zhou could not help but shake her head and sigh, thinking that her son's idea was really fantastic and too difficult for these girls in the boudoir.
If they had a good idea, what else would the court do to support those ministers!
She thought about it again and suddenly became angry.
Why would the emperor come up with a difficult problem that no one can solve? It's obvious that he just doesn't want to become a queen! This brat actually dares to play tricks on himself at this time!
Queen Mother Zhou suddenly darkened her face.
"Emperor, what do you mean? Are you saying that if the flood and drought in Guannan are not resolved, you will not be able to get married?"
"My son, that's not what I meant..."
"Then what do you mean?" Empress Dowager Zhou angrily interrupted Mo Chuan and said sternly: "This problem can't even be solved by the ministers of the court, but you expect these girls to be able to solve it. They are all girls. You are not an official who studies and is a scholar! What you should ask about important national issues such as floods and droughts are those officials with salaries, not these delicate and weak women!"
Upon hearing this, the girls all looked at Queen Mother Zhou with respect and admiration, and their feelings of closeness and gratitude arose spontaneously.
The Queen Mother is so kind, these words simply express their feelings!
"Mother, have you forgotten a sentence? Every man is responsible for the rise and fall of a country! Officials are human beings, and women are human beings. What is talent? What is virtue? If you can write a few poems and recite a few lyrics, you are called talented and learned. Morality! What I want to marry is the queen of a country. She must understand the sufferings of the people, share the worries of the king, and be of the same mind as my son. What I want to marry is not a beautiful vase in the palace, not just a cage. Singing canary! Mother, do you understand what I mean?"
Mo Chuan said forcefully, word by word, like a hammer hitting Queen Mother Zhou's chest.
She stared at Mo Chuan blankly, looking at him in a new light, as if she was meeting him for the first time.
As she looked at it, she felt her eyes heat up, and a wave of heat surged up.
My son has finally grown up!
He had his own independent thoughts and understanding, and his own ability to discern. She could finally completely hand over this heavy burden on her shoulders to him.
"Emperor, the Ai family understands what you mean, and the queen mother will definitely choose a girl of your dreams to be your queen!"
Empress Dowager Zhou stretched out her hand, took her son's right palm, and gave him a confident smile.
Mo Chuan's words made all the girls blush with embarrassment and lowered their heads, wishing that a crack would open in the ground for them to hide in.
Even Xia Yuyan, who looked arrogant and didn't take the girls in her eyes, was extremely ashamed. She really thought that her poems were good, and she had the reputation of being the most talented woman in Kyoto. Many people admired her reputation and came to her for advice. The prince and grandson who asked for marriage almost stepped down the threshold of her family, and even developed her arrogant and self-centered character.
At this time, Mo Chuan's harsh words were like a wake-up call, making her wake up.
