I became emperor in the Tang Dynasty by relying on the palace fighting system

A male censor with a beard glanced at her sideways, and considering that she was the female censor appointed by Yudou Xuanzun, he kept some respect and just smiled and fooled her:

"Ms. Ruyi, the former dynasty and the harem are irrelevant. Your memorial should not be submitted here."

Anger flashed across Ruyi's eyes. "When Tiying of the Han Dynasty saved her father, she submitted a memorial directly to the emperor. She was just a commoner, but I am a female official. Why did you withhold my memorial without authorization?"

She kept pestering him, and the old man became impatient. He looked around and saw that Yan Rushi and the others were not at the Xiantai.

He sneered and said, "If you were an official who passed the imperial examination, I would have handed the memorial to the Second Saint without hesitation, but you..."

Censor A: "If you are trying to curry favor with someone who has gained a high position, then you should stop worrying about the affairs of a proper official here!"

Censor B: "Why don't you go back and take the imperial examination first, become a proper official, and then come and talk to us."

An imperial censor suddenly realized: "Oh! I forgot, you women can't take the regular exams!"

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!"

Amidst the laughter, Ruyi held back her tears and left.

She returned to the Master and burst into tears: "Master, they are going too far!"

After listening to Ruyi's explanation of the whole thing, the female officials all sighed and were filled with indignation.

"Oh! Why can't we women take the regular exams and become court officials? Isn't that all the good work of men like them?!"

"Throughout the history of the imperial examinations, when have men ever allowed women to participate? If it weren't for Xuanzun opening the Jade Maiden and Jade Boy examinations, we would have no chance of becoming officials at all!"

Their eyes were filled with sorrow: "Men broke our wings, and now they laugh at us for not being able to fly."

"Oh, men! They have always been united in their hatred of suppressing women from taking power!"

"We must not sit still and wait for death. If it's too late, our memorial will be stolen by men to take credit and become theirs!"

"Luckily we had a plan, otherwise we would be doomed."

Ruyi went to Li Zhao at lightning speed and knelt down as soon as they met: "Xuan Zun, I beg Xuan Zun to grant me an official position."

"I will petition the court to allow Princess Pingyang Zhao to enter the Lingyan Pavilion!"

Li Zhao glanced at her and smiled meaningfully: "Good, you have courage."

"Pass on my order, and appoint Ruyi, the female historian, as the literary officer of Taiwei Changzhu Mansion. Her rank is from the sixth rank, and her surname is Wu."

Ruyi was overjoyed and thanked him: "Thank you very much, Xuanzun!"

Li Zhao looked at her and said with a smile: "I have given you the position. It is your own business if you argue in court."

Ruyi looked solemn: "I will definitely fulfill your mission."

The palace ladies-in-waiting had greeted the ladies-in-waiting around the Queen in advance.

The censor who wanted to steal the Ruyi memorial to seek credit also had his memorial drowned out by the female officials and suffered a great setback.

Censor: ... ... I have no words to express my suffering.jpg

Soon, when it was time to attend court on the first and fifteenth days of each month, Ruyi, as a sixth-rank official, could go to court to pay homage to the two saints.

She put on her official uniform, took the tablet and memorials, and went to the court.

When the ceremony was over, she was the first to stand up and kneel down: "Emperor, Empress, I, your servant Wu Ruyi, the head of the Taiwei Palace Literature Department, have a memorial to make."

He is an official of Yudou Xuanzun. Li Zhi nodded and said, "Tell me about it."

Ruyi's clear voice echoed in the empty hall: "I ask the two emperors to follow the old system of the previous emperor and establish the Lingyan Pavilion of this dynasty to display the paintings of meritorious officials and generals to encourage future officials."

Establish the Lingyan Pavilion of this dynasty? Follow the old system of the previous emperor?

Li Zhi's eyes lit up slightly. Yes, why didn't he think of it!

Since I am the monarch who inherited the foundation of the country, I should also inherit the Lingyan Pavilion!

Li Zhi immediately said, "Approved. This matter will be supervised by the Minister of Works Yan Liben."

Yan Liben, who suddenly came to work, said: "I obey your order."

Ruyi continued, "Today, I ask the two saints to allow three people to enter the Lingyan Pavilion."

Li Zhi said: "Just tell me."

Ruyi said, "One is Li Ji, the Duke of Ying. He served three dynasties and made countless contributions. He was a general and prime minister of the founding of the country, but he has never been included in the Lingyan Pavilion of the late emperor. I feel sorry for him. I ask the two emperors to issue an edict to allow him to be included in the Lingyan Pavilion of the late emperor and the two emperors."

Duke Ying Li Ji had made great contributions, so Li Zhi naturally agreed: "Approved. Who are the other two?"

Ruyi paused for a moment and said slowly: "Second, the former Duke of Qi, Zhangsun Wuji."

Li Zhi: “…………”

The court officials were shocked: "Chang Sun Wuji? He was convicted of treason by the Second Emperor's confidant, Prime Minister Xu."

"Why is Wu Wenxue talking about him?"

"Does the Queen know that Wu Wenxue is going to talk about this person?"

On the high platform, facing the inquiring gazes from all directions, Wu Meiniang remained unmoved.

Nonsense, of course she knew. Xuanzun had already asked the female official of the Shanggong Bureau to talk to her about it.

However, in order to set a precedent for women to enter the Lingyan Pavilion and allow women to hold power more easily, she would accept it even if it meant rehabilitating Changsun Wuji.

Ruyi talked eloquently: "Zhangsun Wuji also served in three dynasties, and followed Emperor Taizong in his campaigns. He was a founding hero and was ranked first in the Lingyan Pavilion during the reign of the previous emperor."

"When the Emperor first ascended the throne, Changsun Wuji supported him a lot. Although he was suspected of being a dictator, he revised laws and made contributions to the country."

Xu Jingzong could not sit idly by and watch his old enemy being whitewashed, so he retorted: "Wu Wenxue must have forgotten that Zhangsun Wuji later rebelled."

Ruyi looked at him: "I know. That case was tried by you personally, Mr. Xu."

"Even Changsun Wuji committed suicide after Yuan Gongyu, whom you sent, read out his responsibilities."

Xu Jingzong said that Yuan Gongyu was following the orders of Emperor Li Zhi, otherwise he would not dare to force the emperor's own uncle to death.

Ruyi turned around and said, "Emperor, Empress, Zhangsun Wuji has always been loyal. He probably rebelled in the past because he listened to the villain Li Chao's tricks and was dragged into the rebellion. In the end, he never raised an army to force the emperor to abdicate."

"Now that Changsun Gong has passed away, the dead are the greatest. Please remember that he was the right-hand man of Emperor Taizong, the brother of Empress Wende, and a founding father of the Tang Dynasty. He has made outstanding contributions and should be vindicated. Please enter the Lingyan Pavilion of Emperor Taizong and our dynasty."

Li Zhi was somewhat relieved and looked at Wu Meiniang: "Queen, what do you think?"

Wu Meiniang smiled and said, "When a person dies, it's like a light goes out. So many years have passed. Your Majesty, you can make the decision."

Li Zhi smiled with relief: "Okay, approved."

"Who is the third person?"

It’s here, it’s finally here, the most crucial battle.

Ruyi clenched the tablet in her hand and said, "Three, Princess Pingyang Zhao Li Yao."

All the civil and military officials in the court were shocked when they heard this, and their eyes gradually turned unpleasant when they looked at her.

Great, so you've been laying the groundwork for so long just to promote Princess Pingyang Zhao? !

The male officials all jumped out at once: "No!"

"Emperor, Empress, there has never been a precedent in ancient times for women to enjoy the same etiquette as men!"

"Wu Wenxue, what is your intention when you mentioned letting Princess Pingyang Zhao join the cabinet?"

"Is it because you are all women, and you are asking for permission for your own selfish desire to enter the Lingyan Pavilion in the future?"
