Chapter 161 Three birds with one stone

The old god Gu Dingxiang said: "Your Majesty, there is no precedent for a woman to hold such an important position as the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and it is unreasonable."

Emperor Xuanwu smiled, "Gu Qing, everything needs to set a precedent first. Besides, I have always used talents only, and never constrained by the status of the other party. Since Gu Changsheng is talented, why not use it? Do you think that women are hard to be?" I can't do it."

Yes, it's hard for a woman to take on a big job.Many courtiers secretly agreed to these words, but no one dared to stand up and say no.

"When a woman reaches a certain age, she naturally wants to marry and have children, and she can't take care of government affairs." Gu Dingxiang's tone was firm, "Gu Changsheng will not be immune at that time, please think twice, Your Majesty. Even if she has a great talent, she will not be able to take on a big job!"

"My minister agrees!"

"My minister agrees!"

One after another, someone stood up and seconded Gu Dingxiang, and Emperor Xuanwu was in deep thought for a while. After all, this is a question worth thinking about.

Even if Gu Changsheng is qualified for the position of young minister of Dali Temple, she is already twenty-nine years old and is about to marry someone else.In the future, if you show up in public and deal with a group of men, it is inevitable that there will be bad rumors.

Women and men are fundamentally different.

Emperor Xuanwu was silent for a while, and asked, "Gu Changsheng, what do you want to say?"

This is to force her to express her opinion...

Chang Sheng gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, I have no intention of getting married before the 25th. Even if I want to marry a man in the future, I will definitely not affect my official duties."

By the age of 25, a full seven-year commitment is enough to say anything.

She made the promise like this, and everyone's eyes changed again. In the eyes of everyone, Gu Changsheng's saying this was tantamount to not getting married.After all, how could a 25-year-old woman marry.

She was able to let go like this, and firmly blocked the mouths of others.

"Gu Qing, what else can you say?" Emperor Xuanwu asked with a smile.

Gu Dingxiang said calmly: "I have no more objections."

Emperor Xuanwu said loudly: "Okay! This matter is settled, and I don't want to hear any more gossip in the future, otherwise severe punishment will not be neglected! Wang Fu, declare the decree."

Wang Fu stood up with the imperial decree in his hand, "Gu Changsheng listens to the decree!"

Changsheng knelt on the ground, and after listening to Wang Fu's eloquent talk, she said: "I will definitely live up to the emperor's grace and the common people.

Even if this matter is really settled, the ministers will know from the casual words of Emperor Xuanwu that the Ministry of Rites has even prepared Gu Changsheng's court clothes, and they are waiting for the decree to be announced.

His Majesty specifically asked them a few words, just to pave the way for Gu Changsheng so that people would not dare to talk about her daughter in the future.

After the dynasty was dispersed, some people were left behind to discuss matters in the Xuanzheng Hall.

Chang Sheng and Pei Zixu got together and talked about things.

Gu Dingxiang stood in the Xuanzheng Hall without saying a word.

"Gu Qing's singing in this play is very good!" Emperor Xuanwu praised repeatedly after drinking tea.

"I'm stupid." Gu Dingxiang pretended to be stupid and stunned, as if he didn't understand what Emperor Xuanwu was going to say.

Emperor Xuanwu glanced at him, and said to himself: "Gu Qing stood up to object and said everything they wanted to say, so they will naturally have nothing to say in the future, and it will be much cheaper to act in the future."

You say women are useless?Emperor Xuanwu said that Gu Changsheng had cracked the case in Wushan County.

You said that women will marry sooner or later?Gu Changsheng himself had already made a promise.

After all, Gu Dingxiang asked all the questions that were changed, and Emperor Xuanwu explained everything that should be explained, and it seemed to shut everyone's mouths.As for the old guys at Yushitai, they definitely have nothing to say about the matter of women entering politics.After all, Empress Shengwu's promotion of women as officials was recorded in the history books, so it's not impossible to bring them out to suppress them.

Gu Dingxiang's move is really clever if he wants to promote first.

As for the matter of not getting married before longevity 25...

Emperor Xuanwu asked again: "Is it possible to overcorrect?"

Gu Dingxiang looked at his nose, nose and heart, and said in a slightly silent voice: "Isn't this exactly what His Majesty wants to see?"

"What I want to see..." Emperor Xuanwu sighed, "Just wait and see, the Empress Dowager is going to make a fuss in a short time. If Cui Qingquan knows how I treat Changsheng, he might hate me."

"Your Majesty, if there is nothing wrong, I will leave first." Gu Dingxiang said.

Emperor Xuanwu also knew that he had mentioned something that shouldn't be mentioned, so he turned around and said: "Zhao Shi leaked the secret, it's because you are not strict in housekeeping. I will punish you with half a year's salary, and think about it for two days behind closed doors. Do you have any objections?"

"The minister should be punished." Gu Dingxiang responded.

When he left the gate of the Xuanzheng Hall, His Majesty's order of punishment came down, but the Zhao family was not named in the order.

This decree spread to the ears of the crowd, and caused many voices.

The first person to respond to this was the Empress Dowager.

The empress dowager was very angry at the moment, and the glass bracelet in her hand was smashed on the table, "The emperor is so kind! It's so kind! Don't think that after Gu Dingxiang is dealt with, the Ai family will have nothing to say. Let Changsheng be 25 years old. Not getting married, and forcing her to speak out in full view, who will be responsible for this debt!"

"Your Majesty is happy and angry." Nanny Yu hurriedly said: "My Lady, isn't this a stopgap measure? Miss wants to join the Dali Temple, this is her wish, and it is natural that His Majesty grants her wish. Don't you I want to see Miss live happily, as long as she is happy."

"That's what I said, but she has a daughter, and she doesn't get married at the age of 25. What will happen in the future." The queen mother was also worried. She thought that as long as Zhou Chen didn't have anything to do with Changsheng, she didn't expect Emperor Xuanwu This time it was even better.

Seeing that the empress dowager's anger had subsided a little, Madam Yu immediately felt relieved, "Since this matter has not been filed, it is naturally not a serious oath. After a year or so, the empress personally bestows the marriage, is it possible?" How dare someone come out to oppose it?"

"Although that's what you said, the Ai family can't be angry." The queen mother's anger passed, and she didn't speak so aggressively. After thinking about it, she said: "The Ai family can't control the affairs of the previous dynasty, but the affairs of the harem, Aijia can still talk a little bit."

"Your Majesty, what do you mean..." Mama Yu guessed, "What about the Wei family?"

The Empress Dowager nodded, "Concubine Xian has always been domineering, but it's just a kindness on the surface. Let the Empress come to Yongshou Palace to walk around frequently these days, so that Concubine Xian will not look at anyone."

A few years ago, the elder brothers who relied on Concubine Xian were in charge of the military power, and she was left to make trouble in the harem.Now that the Wei family is in decline, the King of Jin has been named the crown prince, and the rights that the queen should have should be taken back.

Nanny Yu repeatedly said yes, and then asked, "Where is King Shou?"

"Xiao Wu..." The queen mother sighed after hearing the words, "He is too determined. This time, the incident in Longzhou has caused a lot of noise, and he will inevitably be involved in the storm. Originally, the Ai family was most worried about him and Changsheng. What Changsheng said today, the Ai family can be at ease."

 Recommend Huihui's finished work "The Paranoid Chief: You Can't Escape a Woman", okay?
