After a long silence, all the ministers respectfully knelt and kowtowed, and said in unison, "The ministers are terrified."
Ah Jiu looked at it, the minister knelt on the ground, of course there were some people standing upright, except for her uncle and Yin Zhengyan Chuqing behind him, there was only one Fu Yan who stood neither humble nor arrogant.
Wen Xiangxiang is not there, otherwise there would be another Wen Xiangxiang.
Ah Jiu glanced at the hall, and couldn't help but scolded these ministers in her heart, so after a long pause, she covered the matter, "Fortunately, I'm sitting here safe and sound now, but it's about my life and death. , I will send someone to find out, of course I will not make it public, you are all my subjects, so I will keep all those disobedient thoughts, I want you to know that the emperor's order is irreversible and irreversible."
As soon as the words fell, the ministers below were all worried. After all, there was no obvious investigation into this matter, otherwise several ministers in the central hemisphere of the dynasty would have to be dismissed and investigated.
After a shrill sound, all the ministers bowed, "The minister obeys the order."
A Jiu nodded with satisfaction, and looked at the people below. Uncle Yin Zheng was not too right to oppose A Jiu. Yan Chuqing stood by her side and didn't mention it for the time being, but Fu Yan also seemed to have nothing to do with him.
Ah Jiu rubbed her sleeves secretly, she had no authority, if she was a more powerful character, I would have already criticized these officials, but the uncle still remained unchanged. I'm afraid it's not what she said, but another thing she will say next.
"Get up!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
When all the ministers stood still, Ah Jiu brewed good words, "During the period of my illness, I suddenly remembered that Empress Yi Nan, who was once the late emperor, had the power of an emperor, and was much more rigorous than the current chaotic outline of the imperial system. Most of them are male ministers, but there are also female officials above some important responsibilities, so I..."
Before Ah Jiu could finish speaking, the next courtier had already taken a step forward and responded loudly to Ah Jiu's words, "Your Majesty, if a female official's office is set up, the courtier thinks it is inappropriate."
Ah Jiu frowned, but she secretly remembered the appearance of this courtier in her heart, and then glanced at Fu Yan's expression, still her face did not change, but Yan Chuqing and Yin Zheng glanced at each other.
Ah Jiu swayed her legs under the imperial case, stretched out her hand to support her chin, and asked frivolously, "What do you think is wrong?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, this minister thinks that although a woman has a delicate heart, she can be really stingy. If she is an official in the court, it will be harmful and easy to violate the rules and regulations."
He said that he was neither humble nor arrogant, but his face was firm, but why was he so unenlightened
Ah Jiu sighed slightly and glanced at Yan Chuqing, Yan Chuqing immediately replied, took a step forward and replied, "Lord Li's words are not right, His Majesty on the dragon chair today is also a woman. Wouldn't the position of Your Majesty be even more violating the rules and regulations?"
With a "pop", the man fell to his knees, "I didn't mean this, it was Lord Yan who twisted his words."
"Master Li only said that he was an official in the court, and he didn't mean to disrespect His Majesty. Yan Chuqing distorted the facts and was disrespectful to His Majesty." Then another person came out from behind Master Li, and respectfully replied to Yan Chuqing's words.
Ah Jiu tutted, unexpectedly the two sides were already on each other.
Yin Zheng, who was on the side, put on his clothes slightly and stepped out, "Your Majesty has also mentioned that the former Empress Yinan also had female officials in the court. If Mr. Li just said it was not aimed at His Majesty, it means that Empress Yinan appointed female officials. It is a great disrespectful crime for Mr. Li to confuse the court."
Then Mr. Li trembled. He never thought that Yan Chuqing and Yin Zheng would be able to take advantage of the loopholes.
Master Li was about to speak, but he looked at Fu Yan's expression.
At this time, Fu Yan was talking to Prince Dun with a smile on his face. The depth of the discussion between the two was far more interesting than what was discussed in the court.
Ah Jiu knew that Fu Yan was waiting for this moment. She saw that her uncle and Fu Yan were chatting very well, and she completely ignored the situation in the court. Although the two did not clearly support or reject it, they did not care at all.
"I don't know what Uncle and Uncle Huang are talking about. I think I was discussing the establishment of the Women's Office just now. What do you two think?"
Ah Jiu thought that since she wanted to talk, she had to break it all up, so she dragged the two to talk together.
Prince Dun and Fu Yan stopped smiling, but Prince Dun didn't speak, but Fu Yan, who was on the side, said with a smile, "We have just discussed with the lord, Your Majesty has imitated Empress Yi Nan, who was Empress Yi Nan in the past. It is to set up a female official's office in the court to consider the insufficiency of male officials, so the government will be balanced and the court will be harmonious."
A Jiu was startled, Fu Yan's words echoed in his head, and then he reacted again. In this way, Fu Yan was actually on her side, and actually supported her in setting up the Women's Office. Why?
Could it be for Shen Qinghe
Or is it that if Ah Jiu himself called Shen Qinghe into the palace, he actually called another helper from Fu Yan
Ah Jiu didn't know, but Ah Jiu knew that when Fu Yan said this, most of the court officials had already understood the direction, so when Ah Jiu said anything, there was no voice of resistance, so Ah Jiu was in Fu Yan's place. With the support of , the Women's Office was successfully established.
Although there used to be a female official's office, it has been a long time, and its system has long been dusted. Now that it is activated again, it is inevitable to start scheduling from the inside of the palace.
Ajiu had discussed with Li Yu, Wenxiangxiang, Yan Chuqing and several others long before the court, and the Women's Office would set up two mechanisms, one in the court and the other in the inner palace.
The person who belongs to the inner palace is the female emperor, and the female officials of the court need the three-division examination before they can hold important positions.
At first, A Jiu thought that Shen Qinghe could not be directly promoted to a female official of the Inner Dynasty, but according to the policy she proposed to Wen Xiangxiang to advise A Jiu about the book hall, even the male officials in the court thought it was very strange when this policy was introduced. This alone is enough to allow her to enter the inner palace smoothly and work under Ah Jiu.
When the female official's office was first established, Shen Qing and Nai civilians were born uncontrollable, so Ah Jiu also called Du Ying to be the deputy. Du Ying was the princess, and now she is the deputy.
This matter is enough. After the establishment of the female official in the inner palace, who will be the female official in the court, Ah Jiu is still very worried. At the beginning, he also asked Wen Xiangxiang and Li Yu to discuss it, but the two agreed on An Qianru.
Although Ah Jiu agreed, she still called Fu Yan to ask after the court.
Ajiu didn't expect that Fu Yan's recommendation was also An Qianru, Ajiu was a little sad, Wen Xiangxiang and Li Yu's recommendation of An Qianru was excusable, but what about Fu Yan
Under Fu Yan's bed, Ah Jiu had clearly heard that Fu Yan had rejected An Qianru. Could it be because she insisted on pushing An Qianru to Fu Yan these days and it played a role
It was also Ah Jiu's own fault.
Of course, she just asked as usual, if An Qianru was chosen, she still refused to give up, just as Fu Yan said, "An Qianru is the daughter of the Taifu, proficient in current affairs since childhood, and has an excellent reputation in the imperial capital. It is the perfect choice for the chief officer."
So when Shen Qinghe and An Qianru were invited into the palace the next day, Ah Jiu also announced the imperial list in the imperial capital. The evaluation system for female officials is the same as that for male officials, but there are two more exams than male officials. Once a year, it is under the personal management of His Majesty.
As soon as this policy came out, most of the women in the imperial capital felt that there was a way out to show their handwriting, although before this, the system of men and women in the imperial capital was also a style of equality.
Shen Qinghe waited on the side of A Jiu, while An Qianru entered the court, and Shen Qinghe was summoned by A Jiu several times on the day he entered the palace.
"Qinghe, I once heard Wen Xiangxiang say that you have a deep relationship with the uncle. When you enter the palace this time, you must remember to always stand by my side." Ah Jiu spoke earnestly, but Shen Qinghe listened full of smile.
"Ah Jiu is worried that I was sent by Fu Yan?" Shen Qinghe said and nodded, "I hope to become a group with Fu Yan, but why don't I understand Fu Yan's mind, he is there to assist you , stay by your side, that's why you refuse to enter my matchmaker's house."
A Jiu's hand holding the sweet-scented osmanthus cake shook, she looked up at Shen Qinghe in amazement, "Uncle Huang has a deep mind, how could he say that?"
Ah Jiu still shook her head nonchalantly as she spoke, staring at Shen Qinghe's skirt embroidered with the official pattern and didn't say a word, but such an expression in Shen Qinghe's eyes didn't mean such a thing.
Who is Shen Qinghe? She has tried all the people in the imperial capital once, not to mention the other side, the woman's mind can still be guessed, Ah Jiu is pure, Shen Qinghe is even more sure.
"Little Empress, don't tell me that you don't know what Fu Yan thinks about you for so many years?"
Ah Jiu was stunned, frowning slightly.
What are you thinking
Why doesn't she know
Seeing A Jiu's reaction, Shen Qinghe guessed it over and over, and couldn't help but feel regretful, "Oh, my A Jiu, you don't even know what Fu Yan thinks about you? He carefully guarded you for 18 years, Why don't I really like you! Could it be because of this grand cause to beautify the country?"
Ah Jiu squeezed the sweet-scented osmanthus cake in her hand, and her heart trembled, "Isn't it?"
Shen Qinghe sighed deeply, "You can see Li Yu's thoughts, but why can't you see Fu Yan's thoughts?"
This made Ah Jiu suddenly remember what Li Yu said to her through the curtain when he left six years ago. Ah Jiu has only realized it now. Besides, Li Yu stayed in Shen Qinghe's marriage book last time. But I saw it with my own eyes.
She prides herself on not being stupid, but she doesn't know anything about these aspects, not to mention that she has long wanted to push Fu Yan to An Qianru.
After being stunned for a long time, Ajiu slowly replied, "Li Yu's thoughts are still what he said, and he has the marriage book you gave me last time, so I just saw it, but Uncle Huang..."
Ah Jiu's words came to her lips, and what she remembered was her reluctance to push Fu Yan to An Qianru.
Shen Qinghe was waiting for Ah Jiu's next statement.
"But Uncle, he never said it."
Shen Qinghe almost lifted his official hat and went forward and pinched Ah Jiu, because of Ah Jiu's identity, Shen Qinghe could only stomp his feet angrily, "Isn't it true that Fu Yan didn't say it?"
Ah Jiu stared at her, how would she know if she didn't say anything
Shen Qinghe sighed again, "I've already guessed it since I saw Fu Yan's second face. Besides, Fu Yan's kindness to you over the years, can't you really feel it?"
"It's not impossible, but most of the time I think he's playing tricks on me!"
"It's really weird that Fu Yan's temperament can be said personally." Shen Qinghe moved his stool to Ajiu and said in detail, "Don't talk about things from the past. He just said that since you got the epidemic, he doesn't care about those who have contracted the epidemic. Dangerous, staying by your side and taking care of you, is it also for the sake of the country?"
"..." Ah Jiu had no words to go back to her.
"When the epidemic was introduced to the imperial capital, he was desperate to suppress the epidemic, but he was also infected a little bit. Fortunately, he was cured early, so there was no serious problem. Even though he knew that the epidemic was brought into the imperial capital by Li Yu, but what do you think about Li Yu? Well, Fu Yan can also see it, he is afraid that you will be unhappy to capture Li Yu in the name of harming the people of the imperial capital and bring the epidemic, so he can only let Li Yu go, isn't this enough to prove it?"
