Chapter 331: She has an inferiority complex?
Because the play hasn’t started yet, Yun Xiangyi and Zhao Ha also got high on melon seeds as spectators.
Both parties seemed to be neighbors who often hung out in tea houses and restaurants, debating head to head.
To wear blue clothes of thin literati as the leader of this faction, is to maintain the tradition of etiquette, the main expression from ancient times there is no precedent for a woman to be crowned king and worship, if the Princess like this also want to be crowned, then the etiquette will be messed up.
Wearing soap-colored clothes five short man, but expressed the opposite sex of the generals have hereditary titles, why the sacrifice for the country’s Rapunzel but can not get a hereditary title? Wouldn’t it still be a loss to be a royal in that case?
“Simply outrageous,” the blue-shirted scholar’s voice was plucked up by the dislike, “back then, the fight for the country was also in support of the late Emperor, the Rapunzel is the late Emperor’s flesh and blood compatriot, it is only right for her to do anything for the late Emperor’s business venture, and it’s only right that she should pay for it!”
The soap shirted man coldly related up, “It is not true that the eldest princess is the first emperor’s flesh and blood compatriot, but if she is a man, even if she is handless, according to the rite of passage, she will also be conferred a royal title. She is a woman, sealing a princess is nothing to talk about, but a princess for the country has made great achievements, all the way over with many generals to life and death, should not be rewarded?”
Yun Qianyi is still the first time to hear this kind of words from a man’s mouth, the han is wearing coarse cloth clothes and coats, but his insights are different from that of a city dweller, she can’t help but applaud for him.
Once she took the lead, there was a succession of applause in the seat, mixed with the applause of many women and girls.
The green shirt literati saw the face are anxious red, stalking neck said: “that according to you so, great Liang also have a female prince? Then, in the future, there are princesses in the palace, is it also according to the first concubine to participate in the succession of the throne? In that case, wouldn’t the mare be allowed to rule the morning?”
This kind of words really don’t sound good to the ear.
Yun Qianyi and Zhao Ha glanced at each other and frowned.
While pondering whether or not to chime in, a voice slowly interjected, “Then according to you, the Empress Dowager created the Flower Moon Society for the purpose of the mare’s morning?”
Once the small people’s conversation involves the harem nobles, it always seems that the situation is a bit serious.
These words attracted a lot of people to look over, it is near the green shirt literati a table of a visitor, is a twenty to thirty years of age of the silk shirt man, look at the eyebrow and eyes mild, hand wearing a big trigger finger, a look of the rich and famous.
This person turned his head at this time, with a trace of obvious disapproval of the smile looked at the green shirt Wenren: “when the ministers can never one of them said this kind of words, the Princess sacrificed in the sand, with her with the robe of the generals who do not shed tears for her?
“You a handless literati, have not charged into battle for the country, nor have you ever spilled half a bit of blood and sweat for the country, do you know how difficult it is for a woman to face the enemy’s thousands of troops, not only to save her own life but also to repel them?
“In your eyes, she is a woman, so her contribution becomes worthless? Who are you to comment on whether a female general who sacrificed her life for her country is qualified to be honored?
“Don’t forget, you can sit here today to eat tea, listen to music and enjoy the opera, without worrying about bandits, without worrying about the world, which is not also thanks to the Princess’s part of the grace?”
The man said, the smile on his face has been hidden, and turned to eyes full of disdain.
To be honest, Yun Qian Yi was dumbfounded by these words. She couldn’t help but admit that she agreed with every word this man said. There are too many people in this world who can’t bring out any value in themselves, but they have a good point when commenting on others.
The key is, the Princess’s pay and other meritorious ministers can be compared to what difference? She is the same with flesh and blood and material to fight the enemy, is not the battlefield, the enemy will let you because you are a woman?
Really don’t come out don’t know, original today’s world have this kind of insight of people still have a lot of.
Two people have the same view in their hearts, and there are a few points of curiosity. But did not wait for them to have more thoughts, this person has stood up, in a light sweep of the green shirt literati after, went out.
Zhao Ha hurriedly made a maid follow her. Then look at the spectators present, still discussing, and the party of the green-shirted literati, face embarrassed, mouth do not know what to grumble a few sentences, but also resentfully got up and left.
Zhao Su lunch time, Yun Yi and Zhao Ha companion walked in, told him about the gossip.
After listening to Zhao Su also feel surprised, after many years of efforts of the Empress Dowager Lu, the dynasty of enlightened people are not few, but most of them at most is to acquiesce to the woman has equal rights with some of the men, such as so blatantly stood in the position of women to challenge the etiquette, is really not common. Not to mention the fact that they said it was a merchant-like person!
“Did you find out which merchant house it is?” She asked.
“I only saw that it went in the direction of the south of the city, and entered a teahouse, the maids had small feet and didn’t dare to go far, and followed and followed and came back.”
Zhao Su has a bit of regret: “This kind of person how rare ah, next time again want to stakeout, remember to let the guards go, the maids do not top things.”
Just after she finished her sentence, there was a clanging sound from the back, Xiao Ju put the comb into the trousseau box, her pouting mouth could be hung up on the kettle: “The girl dislikes the slave maids for their clumsiness, even the guards can’t compare.”
Zhao Su was stunned.
Sister Sun cast a glance at Xiao Ju: “How can you be so rude to the girl when there are no rules?”
Zhao Su hurriedly waved her hands, “No matter, no matter, it’s not a big deal.”
Sister Sun said, “If you don’t mind, then you’re being generous, and it’s fine to have a few jokes behind closed doors, but the slave maids can’t be ignorant of the rules.” She said, turning to Xiao Ju, “If you don’t pay attention to small things, you’ll be easily pulled out. Go stand outside the door for half an hour, and then no more.”
Xiao Ju said yes and obediently went out.
Zhao Su asked for leniency, Yun Qianyi tugged on her sleeve and shook her head.
Sister Sun this is also for the good of Xiao Ju them, Zhao Su is not modest, the Empress Dowager and the Emperor in the palace is not so much as these rules to bind people, but in the end, the future is to enter the palace, all rows of error is to give people to pass the handle, now a little more stringent, it is better than the future to suffer losses.
Zhao Su heart is not bearable, but she also understands that no matter what era, the upper class has its own set of strict rules, in addition to the Sun Sister acted with a sense of propriety, she did not say anything. She just said to Yun Xiangyi and the girls, “In these few days, you guys still go to that theater club to sit down when you’re not doing anything, this person’s pattern isn’t small, it’s worth paying attention to.”
After dinner, she went to Ci Ning Palace, first to ask for peace, second to talk to Empress Dowager Lu about going to the Huo family as a guest.
Just as the words came out of her mouth, Empress Dowager Lu put down the cup she had sent to her mouth, “Sister Yu actually invited you to be her guest?”
“Yes,” Zhao Su nods her head, “The county princess even made a proper post.”
“This is rare.” Empress Dowager Lu said, “She usually doesn’t take much initiative to befriend people.”
“Understood. Up and down the country, which other girl’s status is as good as that of a county princess?”
“That’s not the reason.”
“Then?”
Empress Dowager Lu glanced at her, “She is fatherless and motherless, and has an inferiority complex in her heart.”
“……”
Zhao Su had never thought that Yanping County Lord, who was considered a golden branch, could still be associated with the word inferiority complex.
Empress Lu said, “No one ever imagined that Zhaoyang would suddenly sacrifice herself, and that battle was not considered a vicious one in her resume. Before she left for the battle, Sister Yu had asked her for a promise of a picnic in the Western Mountains for mother and daughter after her triumph, and she confidently promised her daughter that she would leave without the slightest bit of the sadness of running to the battlefield, but rather as if she were going on a tour of the premises as calmly as if she were going on a tour of the premises.
“The more so, the more cruel the result is before us.”
