Drive the RV back to Datang

Chapter 825 Chapter 844: The plan begins

Before the city gate was closed, Li Hao and his family of three entered the city and came to Fan Lihua's mansion. Fan Lihua saw the three of them appearing together, and finally proved her original guess that Hu Ke was indeed Li Hao's woman.

Although Hu Ke and Fan Lihua had a good relationship before, but now they meet, they both become Li Hao's wife, and the atmosphere is a bit awkward. Fortunately, Li Hao is better at breaking the deadlock. After a few cold jokes, the atmosphere immediately became less deadlocked. up.

Next, it's time to get down to business. Li Hao asked Fan Lihua about the current trends in the court and Wu Meiniang's administrative methods. When he learned that Wu Meiniang had raised taxes, he couldn't help but be speechless. This woman really dares to play. Is the purpose of raising it so high to suppress the businessman, or is it to suppress his Li Group?
He really guessed it. Wu Meiniang could not take revenge on Li Hao's Li Group. After all, it would be too disgraceful to take revenge on a dead person. Moreover, Li Hao has made great contributions to the country and has a high reputation among the people. For the Li Group, people will inevitably be criticized, so she raised the commercial tax by more than three times to suppress the Li Group, and at the same time greatly increase the country's fiscal revenue. Although the ministers of the DPRK and China complained, But when they saw that the treasury was full, they didn't dare to talk too much.

Fortunately, in the past few months, the Li Group has all withdrawn and moved to Liuqiu. Although the relocation will cause a lot of losses, Li Hao doesn't care, because in the future, Datang will become a battlefield. If you evacuate early, there will be no hair left.

Knowing that now that Li Xian is on the throne and Wu Meiniang is more powerful, Li Hao pondered for a long time, then suddenly said: "Pear Blossom, the day after tomorrow is the first day of December, right?"

"Yes." Fan Lihua nodded.

Li Hao said: "Well, you prepare a memorial, the day after tomorrow the Great Court Meeting, it may be lively."

Fan Lihua asked: "What are you going to play?"

Li Haodao: "A new national policy has been added, girls will be enrolled in school, and there will be no discrimination in education, and a new girls' school will be built."

Fan Lihua was surprised when she heard the words: "Aren't girls allowed to go to school? Didn't your daughter go to a new type of school?"

Li Hao raised his eyebrows and said: "Since ancient times, women's status has been low, so what should be respected? The saying that a woman has no talent is a virtue has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. My daughter entered school because I am more enlightened, and you didn't pay attention at all. Now, among those newly built schools, how many girls can there be in the whole school? Let’s just say the school where my child goes to school. There is only my daughter. She is treated with strange eyes every day in the school. Fortunately, she has The two elder brothers took care of her all the way, and no one dared to bully her, but if other girls were enrolled, it would not be certain. Therefore, only the promulgation of national policies can be effective, and a new girls' school must be established to open the beginning of girls' enrollment, so as to completely elevate the status of women."

Hu Ke and Fan Lihua were shocked when they heard the words. They didn't know what Li Hao was going to do and why they had such an idea. As women, they were already used to the low status of women. Li Hao suddenly wanted to promote women in this world. Their status really surprised and pleasantly surprised them.

Hu Ke was silent for a moment, then asked doubtfully, "You...why do you have such a strange idea?"

Although Fan Lihua didn't ask, her expression showed that she also had such doubts.

Li Hao smiled and replied: "Women have been in a low status since ancient times. After suffering for so many years, it is time to liberate them. Things like women's enrollment seem to be nothing. In fact, this is an attack on the long-standing etiquette. , as long as this beginning is opened, the following things will follow naturally, and the status of women will gradually improve, until in the end, men and women are equal, and a man can only have one wife."

Fan Lihua said: "Now a husband can only match one wife."

"I mean, concubines are also counted." Li Hao raised his eyebrows and said, "After a few years, it will definitely develop to monogamy, and there will no longer be concubines, because the status of concubines is too low. Not much better than slaves."

Hu Ke snorted coldly: "You have married so many concubines, yet you still have the face to say that you are not allowed to marry concubines."

Li Hao said with a cheeky smile: "Who made me catch up with the good times? The improvement of women's status is a long process. Maybe ten years, maybe 20 years, 50 years, and in the end, they will definitely develop into women and men. Women can walk on the streets at will, can be officials in the court, can go out to work, and if they are bullied by their husbands at home, they can file for divorce...even because women are weaker, they can enjoy special treatment from the state."

Hu Ke and Fan Lihua stared blankly at Li Hao, they couldn't imagine such a situation, women can be equal to men, it's unbelievable.

After a long time, Fan Lihua frowned and said: "This is a great challenge to traditional etiquette, and the officials will not agree."

"This effect is what we want." Li Hao smiled, "As a woman, it's normal for you to make this suggestion, no one will doubt it, and Wu Meiniang is also a woman, she knows the suffering of women, so she will agree , if the ministers refuse to allow it, and attack women because of this matter, Wu Meiniang will definitely be angered, and a court battle will be inevitable at that time, let Wu Meiniang lose the hearts of the courtiers first."

"You are so insidious." Hu Kewen couldn't help muttering.

Li Hao rubbed his nose and said with a smile: "Sinister, I work for you women, don't praise me, but call me insidious."

Fan Lihua smiled and said, "Don't worry, I know how to write this memorial."

Li Hao nodded and shouted loudly: "Flying Eagle! Come in!"

Feiying strode into the study room, cupped his hands and said, "My lord, and the two mistresses."

Li Haodao: "In the name of Li Tu, all trains will be suspended within ten days. The train staff should go to Quanzhou to gather, send a letter to Lu Yun, and send a boat to pick them up to Liuqiu."

"Yes!" Feiying respectfully accepted the order and withdrew.

Li Hao raised his hand and looked at his watch, and said, "It's getting late, you all go back and rest."

Hu Ke and Fan Lihua didn't move, they looked at each other and said in unison, "Where are you going to sleep tonight?"

Li Hao was taken aback when he heard the words, and then showed a lewd smile on his face: "Why, you miss me so much?"

Fan Lihua said calmly: "You and I are husband and wife, it's my duty to ask you where you sleep at night."

Hu Ke pretended to be cold, and snorted coldly: "I won't miss you, I'm used to sleeping alone, and I'm afraid you will disturb my sleep."

Li Hao chuckled, and said, "Go to sleep by yourself tonight, I still have something to do."

"Is there anything else?" Fan Lihua asked in bewilderment, "What else do you need at such a late hour?"

Li Haodao: "I'll go to Lu Guogong's mansion later, and you need someone to help you with your performance, otherwise there will be opposition from all the officials in the court, which is not good."

"Won't Wu Meiniang doubt it?" Fan Lihua frowned, "Think about it, everyone who has a good relationship with you supports this seemingly unbelievable thing, can Wu Meiniang not doubt it?"

"No." Li Hao said, "Although Wu Meiniang is smart, she is also conceited. Improving a woman's status will have a great effect on her next plan, so she will definitely stick to it. Besides, she always thinks you are mine. crony, and my crony is naturally your crony, your crony supports you, is there any problem?"

Fan Lihua thought for a while after hearing the words, and she said, "Okay, let's go to bed then, I'll leave the door open for you."

Hu Kewen said anxiously: "I...I will stay too."

Li Hao laughed when he heard the words: "Okay, stay, stay, haha..."

Li Hao changed his night clothes, went up to the roof, sneaked into the night, and came to Lu Guogong's mansion.

Cheng Yaojin stayed up late at night and was beating his grandson. The Cheng family is still very popular, and most of the babies are boys. Cheng Yaojin treats boys as brutally as ever. He beat his son back then, but now he beats his grandson. This grandson is Cheng Chubi's third son, Cheng Qinglin. The reason for the beating is very simple. He lost the fight with others outside and lost the face of his old Cheng family. It was so miserable, Cheng Chubi couldn't stand it anymore, begged again and again, but Cheng Yaojin handed the whip to Cheng Chubi, saying: "I'm tired, come and whip."

Cheng Chubi was dumbfounded.

Just when Cheng Chubi was in a daze, a laugh came from the roof: "Mr. Cheng's style is still as tough as ever."

People in the courtyard turned their heads to look at the roof, only to see a stranger in night clothes sitting on the roof drinking, looking so arrogant, all the guards rushed to this side.

Others didn't know Li Hao, but Cheng Yaojin did. He quickly waved his hands and said, "We're all gone. This is my old friend."

Everyone dispersed, Li Hao also jumped off the roof, Cheng Yaojin frowned and asked, "It's so late, why are you here suddenly?"

"Of course there is something important." Li Hao said, "I didn't expect to see you beating your grandson as soon as you came here. By the way... are you still waiting to beat your grandson?"

"Hey, these little bastards actually lost the fight outside. It's a disgrace to Duke Lu's mansion. If they don't smoke, they don't know how to practice martial arts with their heart."

"I've smoked it too, let's find a place to talk about it."

"Follow me to the study."

Li Hao was surprised when he heard this: "Your house actually has a study room?"

"What are you talking about!" Cheng Yaojin frowned suddenly, "Although I don't know many words, can't I set up a study to pretend?"

"Just as long as you are happy." Li Hao nodded with a smile.

The two came to the study room, after closing the door, Cheng Yaojin said: "Tell me, why are you looking for me so late?"

Li Haodao: "The matter is very simple, there is only one sentence. Please help to inform me about the performance at the Great Court Meeting and Fan Lihua Meeting in the future. No matter what she plays, you will all support her."

"What is she doing? Can you tell me?"

Li Hao smiled secretly, and said, "You will know when the time comes."

Cheng Yaojin saw that he was showing off, so he simply stopped asking, and asked another question: "Is it in your name to notify them, or in my name?"

Li Hao said: "In my name, of course, we must find those people who can be trusted, otherwise everyone will know about me."

Cheng Yaojin nodded: "Well, I have a measure of this, so you can rest assured."

"That's good." Li Hao said with a satisfied smile, "Then I'll go back."

"Don't, it's rare to come here, come and have a drink before leaving."

"Don't drink, I have something to do when I go back." Li Hao said with a lewd smile on his face, turned and went out.

Seeing the obscene smile on his face, Cheng Yaojin guessed what Li Hao was talking about. Naturally, it was sexual affairs. When he thought of sexual affairs, he suddenly felt his heart throbbing. Although he was old, but since After drinking Li Hao's ginseng soup, he was really alive and well. Even after so many years, he was still alive and well, so he yelled: "Come here, send the orchid that I bought the day before yesterday to my room." ! This old man will fight her for [-] rounds!"
