Chapter 232 [Feminist Pioneer]

————————————

"Uh! This,,," Li Li was stunned when he heard this. He suddenly remembered that his identity seemed not suitable to participate in such matters. When he was about to refuse sternly, he saw Zhen Mi with a disappointed expression, and he immediately changed his attention. ☆→

He said: "In fact, there are many master-level singing and dancing masters in the inner palace, such as Xiao Qiao, Wen Ji, Jieshi, Ying'er, Hongchang and Wuxia, Zhou Yu's wife Da Qiao, Kong Ming's wife Mi Huan, and your sisters. They are not only good at singing and dancing, but also proficient in music, and are also experts in dressing. If you can get them involved, everything will be solved.

Of course, they are all dukes and marquises, so they should not show up, but they can serve as behind-the-scenes planning or compose a new song. Anyway, they have free time, and they are idle. Doing meaningful things in their spare time can not only pass the time and realize their self-worth, but will not be the best of both worlds?"

At the end of the day, Li Li added: "But you can't let them do it in vain without paying any compensation. You must make some statements. Leave this matter to your mother. Everything can be turned into countless money when it comes to her hands, and there is great potential!"

"Is this a saint?" Zhen Mi asked weakly and softly.

Li Li suddenly opened his eyes wide when he heard the sound and shook his head repeatedly: "No, this matter has nothing to do with me. I am a king of a country, so how can I have time to intervene like this? Mi'er, you must keep it a secret for me and keep your mouth shut, otherwise once it is leaked, my reputation will be completely ruined!" After saying that, Li Li's face looked scared, as if once the matter spreads, his throne will be out of order. It is obvious that he did it on purpose. It is too boring to stay in the palace, and it is difficult to leave the palace tonight. He deliberately played with Zhen Mi.

"Hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe

Li Li looked at Zhen Mi with fear, and then the two looked at each other and then laughed happily. You tease me, I tease you too. So if both sides are even, just be happy.

While laughing, Li Li reminded Zhen Mi: "Tell me about this matter to your mother. Let these princesses and concubines move, so that they can do nothing all day long. They are so idle that they can finally find something for them. In addition, tell them that what I said in person is that no matter how high or low things are, as long as they are from labor, it is glorious; let them not worry about anything, just let go and do it, and accept the rewards they should receive, and I will make the decision for them if something happens."

Before he finished speaking, Guo Jia stood up and walked over and continued, "Your Majesty's move is the first to be the first in the world. Why did he plot against the Wei minister?"

Since Guo Jia had already interrupted, Zhuge Liang was no exception: "What Fengxiao said is extremely true. Weichen and others tried their best to serve Your Majesty, but why did Your Majesty even let go of his wives and concubines?"

"Do you two want to take advantage of the situation?" Li Li felt even more comfortable when he saw Guo Jia and Zhuge Liang approaching. He joked: "I have a good time and I am giving you the opportunity to earn extra money. I will lift my brothers and sisters' control over you, and I still want to take the opportunity to blackmail me?"

It was obvious that Li Li was in a good mood tonight. Guo Jia and Zhuge Liang looked at each other and smiled at each other, and then said tacitly. Then Guo Jia smiled and said, "Your Majesty is such a bad word. It is indeed not advisable for women to get involved in such a romantic matter. Not to mention it will damage reputation. Once it is spread, it will inevitably be criticized by others for not being aware of the unfaithful way. After all, this kind of thing is not good. After all, it is a serious official in the court. I still have to take some face into consideration. The matter of letting women show up in public is not a good thing. Do your Majesty agree?" After Guo Jia finished speaking, Zhuge Liang nodded immediately and agreed.

However, Guo Jia's words were half true and half false. They were both jokes and jokes, and also tactfully expressed their concerns. Obviously, Li Li's words just now made them quite moved because Guo Jia and Zhen Mi's third sister truly fell in love. After marriage, the couple was always very loving. Zhuge Liang and Mi Huan were the same. The couple respected each other and were in the same position. The only downside was that most women in this era stayed at home to take care of their husbands and children after getting married, but there were many maids in their house and could not use so many people to watch the children. So their wives did nothing on weekdays and naturally transferred their strong energy to their men. In this way, Guo Jia and Zhuge Liang's life would be difficult. If they had some free time, they had to "pay public food" and did not squeeze them out, they would not want to be quiet.

Just now, when Li Li said that they could participate in choreography and compose music, Guo Jia and Zhuge Liang suddenly had a bright eye and thought that this was feasible. Because they knew that their wives were indeed talented in this area, able to sing and dance, proficient in music, and skillful in the mind and red craftsmanship, and capable of being competent for what Li Li said. But they were happy and they couldn't help but have concerns. After all, the family members of the officials and families of this era should not show up in public, especially in romantic occasions, which was not something that women could get involved. One was a bad reputation, and the other was a harm to the face of a man. Therefore, Guo Jia and Zhuge Liang could no longer calm down and immediately stepped forward to express their concerns. Otherwise, Li Li would be honest and had a good word and gave the order. This matter would be a foregone conclusion and there would be no room for maneuvering.

Li Li knew Guo Jia and Zhuge Liang's concerns very well, and knew that they actually wanted to find something for their wives. Although their wives had no worries about food and clothing and did not have to worry about their livelihood issues at all, doing nothing all day long is not a solution. If they could do something they were interested in, it would undoubtedly be better.

Li Li also feels the same about this. He has many wives and concubines, both of them are not vases. They all have their own hobbies and abilities, and they involve almost all aspects. Whether it is the craftsmanship of the female red craftsmanship or the music of singing and dancing, they can even dance guns and sticks and fight on the battlefield. However, they are women. Due to the constraints of many current rules, they do nothing except take care of their husbands and children and cannot do what they like. It is precisely because of this that Li Li keenly realized that his wives and concubines had signs of intrigue, and the root of all this lies in

Therefore, they do nothing all day long, and they will naturally figure it out, and there will be troubles. Therefore, Li Li wanted to find something for them, mobilize them all, do what they like, transfer their minds to their favorite "careers", combine them together again, work together, live in harmony, and kill the signs of intrigue in the cradle. If this is possible, even if Li Li gets a heart-wrenching illness, it can not only eliminate the conflict between wives and concubines, but also enable them to realize their self-worth. The best of both worlds is the best. Why not do it?

It was precisely with this kind of thought that Li Li took the opportunity to express his thoughts and also brought in the wives and concubines of Guo Jia, Zhuge Liang, Zhou Yu and the generals in the army. The purpose of this is to eliminate their concerns. Everyone is the same, and naturally there is nothing to say. There is no saying that they are not abide by the wife's morals, nor does it violate the etiquette system, and to eliminate rumors from the source.

As soon as he thought of this, Li Li smiled and said, "Fengxiao, Kongming doesn't have to worry. I have already thought about it. This matter will be led by the inner court, so that Xin'er, Wuxia and Wenji will participate. Let them do something they like, as long as they are happy, and other things will naturally be handled and they will never be spread."

With a brief tone, Li Li said frankly: "There are no outsiders here now, so I won't hide it from you. Since the founding of the country, less than half a year ago, I feel that the atmosphere in Chang'an City is not good. The court is in a dusk atmosphere, and there are also undercurrents in the residences of all officials. Many wives and children of officials wear gold and silver, talk about pomp and show off their grandeur, and the style of luxury has emerged. The most important thing is that there are signs of open and secret struggle among all officials, and even my inner palace is no exception.

In view of this, I decided to change this bad habit, suppress the trend of luxury, and eliminate the internal consumption caused by open and secret struggles. The source of all this comes from the families of all officials. Therefore, I set an example, let the wives and concubines in the inner palace do what they can, so that they can feel the hardships of labor, deeply understand the hardships of life with luxury, and let them know how to create value and learn to cherish the existing wealthy life. Now, it is not time to enjoy peace. Therefore, it is imperative to eliminate the trend of luxury, so it is better not to be late. I wonder what you two want to do?"

"Your Majesty is wise, I will be driven by you." Guo Jia and Zhuge Liang responded respectfully.

Li Li nodded and smiled, "Since that's the case, this matter is decided. In addition, as long as the wives and concubines of all officials are willing to come out to do things, more than 100 workshops in the name of the inner government can open their doors to them and let them participate, and they will get more work and get remuneration according to actual benefits. This salary is not within the salary, and is paid separately, which is entirely their own labor income and enjoy the right to be freely disposal. This provision will be included in the law of our dynasty to effectively protect their legitimate rights and interests." Speaking of this, Li Li laughed sarcastically: "If they dare to take this step, perhaps they can support themselves in the near future, and even support the whole family. At that time, there is no need to live a life by you officials! Hahaha!"

Guo Jia and Zhuge Liang looked at each other with strange expressions and looked funny and laughing. This made Li Li laugh even happier, as if his happiness was based on the embarrassment of Guo Jia and the others.

After laughing, Zhuge Liang said, "I have no objection to this. But it is difficult to truly implement this matter, but it is difficult to go. After all, this is a rule that has been passed down for thousands of years and cannot be broken overnight. In addition, it is a good thing for women to support themselves, but I am worried that in the future, the officials and families will inevitably use their power or collusion between officials and businessmen. For this reason, we must make careful arrangements to prevent problems before they happen!"

Li Li smiled and nodded and said, "It's true. Everything has its pros and cons. What we do is to guide and inspire the favorable side, eliminate the disadvantages as much as possible, and not to give up because of the choking and not to give up. Kong Ming is responsible for how to formulate the law. There is no rush to conceive it slowly. It is not too late to make the law after all the women in Jin State mobilized them to enact the law."
