Chapter 53 Talking about the world

In the early morning, Rong'er looked absent-minded. The minister was talking about his own opinions, but Rong'er didn't listen to a word.

Recalling Yuetao's answer, "The person I like, she doesn't know that I like her."

Lan Lu saw it, and Rong'er was distracted and stepped forward to remind: "Female monarch! I think it is feasible to advise the Prime Minister on the proposal, and I second the proposal!"

Rong'er came back to her senses and said, "I'm sure!"

When Rong'er left, she gave Yuetao a palace maid's dress, "Your outfit is too conspicuous, please change into our clothes! If you feel bored, go for a walk in the garden outside the house. I have told you to go there without my permission."

No one will go."

Isn't it a bit abrupt to talk about liking someone after you've only met them once? Isn't it a bit irresponsible to tell the other person that you fell in love at first sight? Yue Tao probably won't believe it! He already has someone he likes.

Should I stop thinking about him? Although I am his savior, I shouldn’t repay him with kindness! It’s a bit too unethical.

Yuetao was a little bored staying in the house, so he went for a walk in the garden mentioned by Ronger. He looked at his somewhat ill-fitting women's clothes and shook his head. This was his first time wearing women's clothes and he always felt awkward.

No! He smiled thinking about it.

There are all kinds of flowers in the yard, which makes people feel happy. This palace garden is indeed extraordinary. There is also a strange thing. He only remembers the incident of escaping to survive the thunder tribulation, but he never thinks about how he survived it.

Can't get up.

Rong'er returned to the palace from the next morning, but she didn't see Yue Tao indoors, so she went to the garden to look for him again, "Pfft!" Rong'er hid her smile, "Uh?" Yue Tao saw Rong'er smiling behind her.

"The women's clothing I chose for you is a bit too small!" Ronger said, looking at Yuetao's somewhat restrained look.

"The shoulders are a bit narrow, and it's my first time to wear women's clothing." Yue Tao said, his broad shoulders stretched the clothes tightly, and his movements were somewhat restricted.

"I'll help you find a bigger one later! Are you a little bored here?" Ronger said.

"No, the flowers in the garden are nice and pleasing to the eye. You must be quite tired from going to court," Yuetao said with concern.

Ronger smiled and said, "Can you tell me more about the outside world?"

"Okay! What do you want to hear?"

"Are the mountains and rivers outside the same as here?" Ronger asked.

“Although I haven’t seen the beautiful scenery here, I think it will feel different!”

Oh, I forgot, he only stayed in the palace and never visited the Daughter's Kingdom.

"How do the daughters outside live? Is it the same as the daughter country?" Ronger asked.

"Then what are the women of the Daughter Kingdom like?" Yuetao asked.

"Daughters in the Daughter's Kingdom can farm, do business, take exams and serve as officials, or practice immortal magic, and freely choose their own life orientation. The Daughter's Kingdom follows the principle of equality for all, and everyone, whether human or elves, can be free on this land.

Survival, isn't that the case outside?" Ronger said slowly.

Yue Tao found it incredible, could this really exist? Anyway, he didn't believe it. If what she said was true, then it would be understandable that she was not afraid even though she knew he was a monster. He asked: "What did you say?

The Daughter Country is so good, I almost want to become a daughter and stay here. Are everything you said verifiable?"

"Very true! I can take you out of the palace tomorrow to see my country!" Ronger said.

"Okay!" Yuetao was thinking about seeing what the daughter's kingdom is like. If it is true, it will be confirmed from the side. She is a good monarch, no! That also shows that she is not an ordinary monarch.

"Are the countries outside very different from ours?" Ronger asked.

"The women outside are somewhat different from the women here..." Compared with the women outside the country, no one can compare with the women outside. Feudal ideas suppress women too much, and people of the same gender should not be treated differently.

He is somewhat unable to speak out about the reality, and is in a position of being compared to others.

"Forehead?"

"Women there are more restricted than here. There is a saying that 'no talent is virtue', so those who go to school and serve as officials are all men. Most of the women are raised in boudoir. Some are enlightened and have the conditions.

Some of them will also hire tutors for their daughters to learn literacy, reading, music, chess, calligraphy and painting." Yuetao told the truth.

"I don't understand why 'a woman's lack of talent is a virtue'? I don't agree either. What's the difference between women and men?" Ronger was puzzled. Maybe she will never understand this view in her life!

How should he explain this gap? "Women are born... relatively weak and disadvantaged compared to men. Men can fight on the battlefield to defend the country, and they can become soldiers and officials to govern the country. There is always one person who wants to control the outside world, and the other person controls the inside, so

Women generally take care of the household affairs at home."

"What men can do, women can also do! We have four generals to defend the country at home, and our ministers are also women! Why not let men stay at home and women outside?" Rong'er said indignantly.

"There is a natural gap between men and women. This is innate and cannot be changed!" Yue Tao said.

"Gap? Then let's compare to see if there is any gap!" Ronger said as if she wanted to do it.

Oh~ why did you get involved in this? Looking at the furious Ronger, cough... Yuetao coughed several times, "Are you okay?" Ronger put away her anger and asked with concern.

"It's okay, you are the king, how can you bully me, a little peach demon? I...ahem, I'm still injured, aren't you taking advantage of me?" Yuetao looked so delicate that anyone who looked at him would be surprised.

I was so distressed that I lost two ounces of meat.

"I'm sorry! I didn't mean to bully you!" Ronger explained.

Fortunately, I am smart, otherwise we would get into a fight. If things got serious, I would fight with the monarch in a show of force, and people would see him and they would not be able to tell whether he was right or not.

"It's windy outside, let me help you go back to the house and rest!" Ronger said.

"Okay!" Yue Tao said. Fortunately, he restrained himself and did not finish the story. After hearing this, the queen fainted from anger. Not only did women not be able to freely choose their own path, they could not make achievements! Even their own marriages could not be decided by themselves.
