After time travel, my best friend and I exchanged supplies and became a rich woman

After the court session, the emperor specially sent someone to invite Min Shanggong.

He asked Lady Min, "Is Doctor Yao's apprentice really capable?"

"Are you talking about the current director of the Imperial Hospital?" Min Shanggong confirmed.

"Yes." The emperor nodded.

Min Shanggong replied, "I am not sure whether taking the pulse is effective, but I heard that his acupuncture skills are half of what Doctor Yao taught him."

"Half of the true teachings? How do you mean?" asked the emperor.

"I can guarantee that a person will not die, but I cannot guarantee that he will be saved." This is the answer of Min Shanggong.

The emperor, who was reviewing the memorials with his head down, raised his head and thought for a moment, then smiled crookedly: "That's not bad. By the way, what has Chen Dongyue been busy with recently? Why did I hear from Geng Hui that I haven't seen Chen Dongyue for several days?"

"In reply to the emperor," said Consort Min, bowing her head, "Lord Chen recently opened a branch of Jinningfang in the capital, and also selected a piece of land in the far suburbs. I heard that he is planning to build a new Liulichang.

In addition, she also said that she wanted to set up a girls' school. Although the site has not been selected yet, the teacher has already recruited five or six students.

By the way, the Xie family sent twelve thousand-mile horses to the Lin residence two days ago. In the past few days, posters recruiting people from the underworld, martial arts masters, and third-generation boat people have been posted on the door of the Zhang family shop... "

"Recruiting people from all walks of life and martial arts masters... I can understand it, but recruiting three generations of boat people... Is she going to open a fish shop or something?" the emperor asked with a frown.

Min Shang Gong shook her head. "I don't know about this. Why don't you ask Lord Chen yourself?"

"I understand. I will ask when I have time. You can go down first." The emperor waved his hand at Min Shanggong.

Min Shanggong left the imperial study in an orderly manner.

"It's not that I don't want to see her," the emperor muttered after seeing the person leave, "It's just... a little embarrassing."

Ever since Chen Dongyue politely rejected the emperor, the emperor felt a little awkward when seeing Chen Dongyue again.

After all, the emperor has to have some dignity, and it is inevitable that his self-esteem will be hurt when he is rejected.

But without Chen Dongyue, the emperor felt that life was boring and lacking some fun. It was really meaningless.

Then... go meet him?!

OK! Let’s go meet him!!

But before the emperor could even reach the door, he heard the eunuch come and announce, "Your Majesty, the Empress wishes to see you."

Ah yes.

The Emperor had already chosen his concubine, and he...got married.

He not only had a queen, but also beauties, concubines, and imperial concubines...

Although there are not three thousand beauties in the harem, there are at least a tray of them.

The empress was born into the Longxi Li family. Her grandfather was a first-rank university scholar appointed by Emperor Taizu himself, her father was the director of the Hanlin Academy, and her eldest brother was the chief academic officer of the Imperial College.

Although the Li family is low-key in the capital, they have deep roots.

Especially in the Longxi area, the Li family has deep roots and strong branches.

If the emperor wanted to consolidate military power in Longxi and expand the territory, he could not escape the support of the local nobles.

So after careful selection, the Empress Dowager finally chose Li to become the Queen.

But since the day of his marriage, the emperor seldom set foot in the harem.

The queen, who had not seen the emperor for many days, had no choice but to block the door herself.

When the emperor heard that the queen was coming, he was stunned for a moment before he went to greet the queen in person.

Looking at the delicate and amiable woman in front of him, the emperor finally realized a problem.

Yes, he had a queen.

Chen Dongyue did not divorce either.

There shouldn't be any relationship between them beyond that of a ruler and his subjects.

In that case...the emperor nodded silently, puzzled.

After eating a box of snacks sent by the Queen and promising to play with the Queen again in the evening, the Emperor asked someone to call the Minister of Rites.

The Minister of Rites was extremely panicked.

You know, since the emperor ascended the throne, he has already dismissed two chancellors and one prime minister.

Is it my turn now? !

The trembling Minister of Rites walked into the imperial study with shaking legs.

But after hearing the emperor's request, he breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as the emperor doesn't want to get rid of him, then no matter how other requests... no matter how absurd they are, the Minister of Rites thinks they can be done.

The grand court meeting five days later was turned into a mess because of a memorial from the Minister of Rites.

But this time, Meng Xiang and Zhang Shenzhi couldn't figure out what the emperor wanted to do for a while.

Simplify the divorce process.......cancel the women's roll-top board segment............

Which minister in the court was this incident directed at? !

Which Shangshu's family has the conflict between their husband and wife?

Why on earth did the emperor have to meddle in other people’s household affairs?

What is the purpose?

What is the reason?

The two lackeys were at a loss for a moment.

However, the old scholars in the court quarreled with the Minister of Rites until their faces turned red.

How can the rules set by the first emperor be changed at will?

Besides, as the saying goes, a good woman won't serve two husbands. If the divorce process is really simplified, then all those women will start to make trouble, and wouldn't the hierarchy be messed up? !

No, no, absolutely not! !

But the Minister of Rites is still a Minister after all, and his level is still quite good.

Since the old scholars all said to bring the ancestor emperor, he had to talk about the story of Nuwa repairing the sky...

Isn't it time to learn from history? Who can be better than Nuwa?

........

The old scholars said that the Minister of Rites was really making nonsense.

The emperor, however, was very interested and asked the Minister of Rites to explain how the simplification of the marriage and separation process was related to Nuwa.

Just~~~~talk.

The Minister of Rites is best at using historical references to illustrate present times, so there is nothing he can't come up with.

So he started to talk about how Pangu created the world and Nuwa made stones to repair the sky...

A grand court meeting lasted from the beginning of the Chen hour to the end of the Wei hour.

It is understandable that the old scholars are old and physically exhausted, at most they just persist.

But when it comes to shit and urine, people in their sixties really can’t stand it as much as people in their forties.

Several old officials almost wet their pants...

In the end, at this grand court meeting, the Minister of Rites won the final victory by defeating all the old scholars from all over the place.

........

Three more days passed.

A new divorce bill was introduced.

After hearing the news, Chen Dongyue specifically asked Geng Hui, "Your Majesty, are you...helping me?!"

"It wasn't the emperor who brought up this matter," Geng Hui explained as he ate the barbecue Song Yun gave him. "I heard it was the Minister of Rites who brought up this matter."

"Oh~~~~" Chen Dongyue nodded, "The Minister of Rites is indeed a man who can judge the situation!"

Isn't it? !

Anyway, no one in the Minister of Rites' family wants to divorce, so why not do it considering the situation?

As for why the emperor did this...

Hasn't he already sorted out the relationship between himself and Chen Dongyue? !

Ah, yes.

The emperor did sort out the relationship between him and Chen Dongyue.

but!

Hasn’t Song Ke yet sorted out his relationship with Chen Dongyue?

Since he has retreated to the position of monarch and subject, shouldn't Song Ke also retreat to the position of colleagues with Chen Dongyue?

This is what we call fairness...

Although the emperor had no say on whether Chen Dongyue and Song Ke would divorce.

But shouldn't he create a good environment for Chen Dongyue to divorce? !

Hey...what do you mean by good intentions?

This is called good intentions!
