Regarding the Women's Society, Cui Mingde didn't talk to me about many specific details, and I didn't want to ask her exactly how she would do it right now.The Women's Society should not just be a small group that hugs each other to keep warm. I have thought about this very clearly since its establishment.Cui Mingde also saw this very clearly.

But when it comes to how to do it, we don’t have a very clear idea—in other words, we all have a general idea, but whether this idea is right or wrong, and whether it can be realized in the end, is a big problem.

I am determined to hand over all this matter to Cui Mingde.She is a smart person, not just like Huan or Wan'er who is as sensitive to words and deeds, but is truly aware of the overall situation and sensitive to her heart. The affairs of the women's society are complicated and need to balance the interests of all parties, but there is no result in the short term. ——Even if you see results, it is not beneficial to the court or the current society, and people like her are needed to do it.What's more, her own career also needs such help.

Unlike Ah Shao, Cui Mingde's official career was doomed to be difficult from the very beginning.One is that the daughter has a weak constitution and is naturally inferior to the man's family in the matter of fighting. Even if women are allowed to be generals without hindrance, there are very few who are really competent.What's more, it is the civil officials in the localities and palace provinces who really govern the world and control the right to speak and political power, not the generals who lead troops to fight.Second, Dugu Shao has the ability to lead troops, but he has no ability to plan a situation. Even if he makes an exception and gives a false name, it is only a threat to one side. For a while, Cui Mingde is a man of the times. If he can really entrust him with important tasks, what he can achieve- — or a threat — is anything but handsome.Although the Cui family of Qinghe is a famous family, Qingliu's reputation falls on the daughter of the family who is famous for abiding by etiquette, but it will only hinder rather than help.

But also because of this, I just want to help Cui Mingde, help her reach the limit of being a minister, not only when I have my support, she can be the leader of the world, even behind me, she can be the leader of women in the world, and plan for it.

Ever since Feng Yongchang's crimes were confirmed, I have often wondered where my so-called "ideal" should go.I already know Feng Yongchang quite well, and I often beat him when I think of it.I used to think that he was just making a fuss about corruption, or taking advantage of his power to do some good fortune, but the fact is that he not only swallowed up a lot of money from the charity hall, opened up the entire channel up and down, and made the following Things like eunuchs marrying civilian girls by force—these things run counter to my original intention.

The Charity Hall is just a small example, an immature experiment, and it can cause such consequences. I dare not imagine that so many businesses I have handled can really fall into my hands in a place that I can't see. In terms of "ideal", even only those that are truly beneficial to the people and the country, there can be a few real ones.

I thought hard about the people involved in what I wanted to do.I believe that most of them have more morality and bottom line than Feng Yongchang, but even so, there is always a big gap between their own interests and my ideals.

At the upper level, although there is a group of people around me, everyone is planning for this matter, but what they pay attention to is not the same thing as what I pay attention to.Like Cui Mingde, if I didn't bring up the reform of the women's society, she would never take the initiative to bring it up. Instead, she would give me all kinds of political advice and teach me how to eliminate political enemies.If I brought it up, she would certainly be willing to take it on, and perhaps would be more willing to be close to me because of it, but in the end, these things will not be her main career.

In the lower class, tens of thousands of living people have long been accustomed to the customs formed over thousands of years, and their main goal is not the so-called human rights, equality, or even studying or being an official. But food and clothing two words.According to the results of Kuohu, more than [-]% of the people in my country rely on farming for a living. The wishes these farmers can make are either to harvest an extra three or five buckets of rice this year, or to make an extra few feet when weaving in the Ming Dynasty. , make decent clothes, if the tax is less, you can eat a few more bowls of corn and add an extra dish, or on New Years and festivals, the government will give some wine and meat, and the barbarians in the market will perform a good show. The eminent monk in the temple told a wonderful half-story and half-instructive Bianwen, that is the most commendable good thing. As for whether the current emperor is a woman or a man, and whether the officials are elected by them or appointed by the superiors, yes. They are all the same. For them, topics like "gender equality" are like the tops of distant mountains seen through thick fog, which is both ignorant and far away.

In the upper and lower floors, let alone the people who really do these things for me.Feng Yongchang is an excellent example. He told me vividly how these people who were caught in the middle and obtained the authority granted by the superiors gave it to the subordinates.How to make what I want to do, really do it down there, without going in the opposite direction, without cutting corners, it is really a big problem.

In addition to this, there is another thing that gradually began to bother me—I am only one person after all, even if I put forward such an ideal and practice it all my life, it will only be a few decades. The progress of society and the improvement of women's status are by no means something that can be achieved in just a few decades.When I was here, there were still people who promoted these things. If I am not here, who will continue these things?

With my shallow knowledge, I can't think of any perfect plan so far.But I know that the key to accomplishing this is not the people, but the system.

My subordinates should not be pure "princessists", but should be conscientious and dedicated to doing things under the supervision of the system. My ideals should not be prospered because of my glory. Instead of failing and declining, it is passed down from generation to generation under the guarantee of the system—or modified, but its purpose of benefiting people should not change.

What I do alone may be just a small effort, but if there are thousands of small efforts like me, the world may become a little better than before.It would be even better if these small efforts of mine can be a step for future generations, so that future generations can stand on the place where my predecessors have paved the way, see higher and do more.

I have been thinking about these things that I can’t tell others all through the early spring—the only person who can tell me these things is far away in Ruzhou, and all the pen and ink I know will be more or less reviewed by my mother—looking forward to it, looking forward to it. Bring Sheng Jia and my A Huan back.

February passed by in my chaotic thoughts.At the beginning of March, when the weather warmed up, Shengjia returned to Luan, and Shouli and I went out of the city to greet him. Like him, I held the whip, rode a horse, and displayed guards of honor on both sides of the avenue, waiting for the battle.

Shengjia is far more casual than us. Mother wore casual clothes, rode on the horse, let others lead the reins, and walked slowly all the way. Behind her, both men and women rode big horses, either in casual clothes or Casual clothes, colorful, very gorgeous.

The most dazzling person in the crowd, wearing purple uniform, riding a green horse, approached slowly with a bridle, looked at me from a distance and smiled.After sending Sheng Jia back to the bedroom, on the way with me to the East Palace, Fang Kuan took off his outer robe, revealed a narrow-sleeved dress inside, and winked at me: "Look at this dress, does it look like what you described to me before? That thing called 'Tai Xu'? If you usually wear this clothes, it must be much more convenient to work?"
