Delusional [Quick Transmigration]

Lin Xi and Nalan Xi are currently investigating a case of a young woman murdering her husband. A woman named Gou Liurou married a scholar. This woman wanted to try it out when she heard that Chu State started to implement the female official system. Distinguishing talent and learning, Lin Xi got a first-class result in the assessment specially held for women this year. Lin Xi wanted to let her go to the Imperial Academy to be a small official. I want her to understand the affairs of the court from various documents, and it will be convenient for her career in the future. I am afraid that she will think too much, so I deliberately confided my heart.

Of course, the woman happily complied, and turned back home to tell her husband-in-law that her husband-in-law is a down-and-out scholar who has tried and failed many times. Feeling that wives with no talents have passed the exam, and their futures are bright, I was annoyed in my heart. After talking to a few classmates drunk, those classmates gave him advice, telling him to lock his wife at home and not allow him to take office, and said that if she Going out to show her face is disobeying women's morals, so she divorced her.

Gou Liurou confronted him in a moment of anger, not wanting to kill the scholar by mistake, because the identity of this woman was different from others, so the murder was reported to Lin Xi's ears.

Now is the critical moment for the implementation of the female official system. Naturally, she has to investigate carefully when something like this happens, otherwise this policy will only arouse even greater criticism.

Out of various considerations, Lin Xi invited the new prime minister, Nalanxi, to investigate together, and came to such a result.

She couldn't help being troubled as to how the matter should be handled.

After listening to the investigation, Nalanxi murmured, "How about asking the king to make a ruling?"

Lin Xi thought about it, and reported the matter to Xie Xiangzhi in person.

Pei Yuan had just left the Chu Palace and returned to Yan. Xie Xiangzhi was bored for a while, but he was more concerned about government affairs than usual. After listening to Lin Xi's account of the cause and effect, he asked, "Did you give her the letter of appointment?"

Lin Xi knew that he was referring to Gou Liurou, so she thought for a while, "I have already given it, and she will take it back."

"What is the crime of Chu officials killing civilians by mistake?" Xie Xiangzhi picked up a ink pen and wrote the word "read" on the memorial.

"Demotion to third class, fined fifty sticks."

Lin Xi said.

Although "a prince breaks the law and commits the same crime as the common people", since the previous dynasties, he has also emphasized that "the punishment cannot be punished by a doctor". Chu's punishment of officials is already relatively severe among all countries.

The laws of the past dynasties have been constantly improving and progressing, and even the laws constrain the monarch. Xie Xiangzhi is not a person who is good at this area, and he cannot be fair and strict. Naturally, he will not easily interfere with the law and let it develop. Reasonable.

"Wife kills husband by mistake, so what if the husband is at fault first?"

He continued to ask.

"If the husband is at fault first, the crime will be reduced according to the circumstances at the time. If the wife kills her husband for no reason, she will be punished for 30 miles and [-] years."

Lin Xi remembered the laws of Chu State, and answered without thinking, she already had a faint understanding in her heart.

"My king heard that the husband is going to divorce his wife?"

"There is a matter."

"Then, what is the crime of imprisoning and abusing officials without reason?"

Xie Xiangzhi raised his eyes slightly and asked again.

Lin Xi's heart skipped a beat, and he replied respectfully: "If the circumstances are serious, the death penalty will be imposed."

"I understand." Lin Xi cupped his hands.

Xie Xiangzhi nodded and let her go out without asking her how to deal with it.

Lin Xi walked out of the Yizheng Hall refreshed, and bumped into Nalanxi who was coming. He was wearing a formal red court dress. Actually, this color didn't suit him very well, maybe plain color was more suitable.

She nodded towards Nalanxi: "Master Prime Minister."

"Did Lin Yushi get the answer from the king?" Seeing the expression on Lin Xi's face, he raised his eyebrows and asked.

"Yes. Your Majesty the Prime Minister has something urgent to do?"

"The king called me to discuss the matter of attacking Chunguo this spring." Nalanxi replied, he was actually a little puzzled, why didn't he take over Yongjing first, show the name of orthodoxy, and then attack the weak Chunguo?It is clear that the king still intended to do so some time ago.He didn't know that there was another conspiracy in it, but Xie Xiangzhi had made up his mind and would not change the plan at will, so his doubts were stuck in his heart.

Lin Xi opened her almond eyes wide in surprise, and didn't ask any more questions.

……

The next day, Lin Xi found the presiding officer in Dali Temple to give instructions, and the judgment of this case was made.Lin Xi found a scholar from the woman's home to write a letter of divorce to threaten the woman. Although there was no official document notarized, this small "mistake" was ignored by everyone under Lin Xi's smiling eyes.Since there is no name of husband and wife, it is judged that the wife is not guilty of murdering her husband. However, when an official kills a commoner, thinking that the commoner is at fault first, he will be exempted from half of the [-]-stick punishment, and will be deprived of the woman's honor. She will not be allowed to participate in the women's department for five years. Test.

The civilians imprisoned and abused officials privately, and the crime was added to the crime according to the law. Considering that the scholar was dead and his lights were extinguished, his family would not be harmed, and his property and land would only be confiscated.

Gou Liurou thanked Lin Xi tearfully after hearing the verdict.

Lin Xi didn't say anything, and let her go down with a sigh.

In fact, she may not have judged this case fairly, but there is no absolute justice in this world.At this juncture, she has no better choice.

But everything will get better and better.

Lin Xi burnt the letter sent by her elder brother reprimanding her for being "crazy" with a blank face. In Lin's young gentleman's opinion, killing her husband by a wife is a serious crime, how can she let it go so lightly?

Not long after Lin Xi received this letter, a special guest came to her mansion, the former female official in charge of Chu Palace, her direct sister-in-law, Huo Junru.

To Lin Xi's surprise, she put back her girlish bun instead of putting her long hair behind her head like a married woman.

Huo Junru was not pretentious, and said directly: "Your brother and I have reconciled. I came here today and asked Axi to do me a favor—ask Axi to introduce me to the King of Chu."

Since she was a child, she was expected to be virtuous, gentle and obedient, and good-looking. When she grows up, she must be the best candidate to be a clan wife or imperial concubine. It was already the best she could do, but Lin Xi's birth shocked others and the cage she made up for herself—she realized in a trance that women can be no different from men.

And after that, the gap between her and her husband seemed to grow bigger and bigger, until this case of Gou's murder of her husband, all the contradictions hidden under the calm ice surface were instantly aroused-he believed that women should only Staying at home, caring for husbands and children, taking care of the inner house, instead of pointing out the country above the court, those are all men's affairs.

There's nothing wrong with him, he just can't understand each other.Huo Junru reconciled with him without hesitation, rushed back to Nanzhou with his maid, and came straight to Lin Xi.

The reform of Kuang Tian Fu has almost been completed, and the marriage between Lin and Huo's family has completed its mission, and Huo Junru gave up this marriage without any scruples.

Otherwise, it's just a resentful couple.

"You are a princess, the king's younger sister, why do you need my introduction?"

Lin Xi blinked and asked puzzledly.

Huo Junru shook his head: "I don't want to meet him as a princess or a younger sister, I want to meet the king as a minister who assists Jiangshan Sheji like Axi, so in Chu Kingdom, only Axi Xi can recommend for me."

Courtiers recommend courtiers.

Lin Xi nodded with complicated eyes.

After the court meeting that day, the King of Chu summoned Huo Junru in the Yizheng Hall, but in just a few months, she had already experienced marriage and divorce.

After Lin Xi finished talking about the basic situation, he withdrew from the Yizheng Hall. For the first time, Huo Junru saluted Xie Xiangzhi according to the normal etiquette of courtiers.

"If I come here today, the king must be able to guess my purpose."

Huo Junru saluted and got up.

"I heard that Ji, the king of Chun, once entered the capital of Chu, and the king of Yan has returned to Yan recently. May I ask the king, whether he has reached any agreement with the king of Yan, for example - Chunguo?"

She has always been intelligent, even better than Lin Xi in observing the details. Although the Huo family is in decline, it has a deep foundation and can provide her with many clues.Xie Xiangzhi was not surprised that she analyzed this.

So he nodded directly, waiting for Huo Junru to continue to explain his purpose.

"You are stupid, although you can't guess what the bet between the king and King Yan is, but you can still guess the content of the bet. You came here today to ask the king for orders to enter the Chun Kingdom."

Huo Junru said respectfully.

"Are you going to persuade to surrender?"

Xie Xiangzhi narrowed his eyes slightly and asked softly.

Huo Junru smiled, and said gently and softly: "Your Majesty may have overestimated Junru. If Junru had this kind of ability, I'm afraid that the young master of the Lin family would not give up because I wanted to participate in the scientific examination under Lin Yushi. The trouble with Junru has come to such an extent. But I seem to be sure to persuade the current King and Empress Chun to cooperate with our Chu army."

"Oh?"

Huo Junru explained: "The Queen Chun and my mother are aunts and sisters, and they have always been close friends in the boudoir. Unfortunately, this cousin married far away, and the mother died early due to illness, so they lost contact. Now it is the same as before. It’s better to go and restore the old one.”

Xie Xiangzhi tapped on the table with his fingers, "What do you want?"

"Junru doesn't want anything, but just wants a place to participate in next year's scientific examination."

"Lin Xi's women's scientific examination will start this year." Xie Xiangzhi said calmly.

In order to allow more people to participate in the women's scientific examination, Lin Xi, different from the regular imperial examination, took the scientific examination this year in spring and winter, and gradually followed the normal imperial examination in the future.

"No." Huo Junru raised his eyes, "Your Majesty, what I want to participate in is not the women's scientific examination, but the Chunwei held in Chudu next year."

To put it more clearly, she has to take the imperial examination, which has always been only for men.

"Yes." Xie Xiangzhi nodded, "At that time, ask Lin Xi to send two female officials to be in charge of the body search before the imperial examination for you."

In all the spring and autumn exams, the examinees had to be searched to see if they had any cheat sheets, but the people responsible for these were always men, because the examiners were also men.This is also an important reason why Lin Xi has never been so rebellious as to plan to directly participate in the scientific examination.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Huo Junru resigned.

The council hall fell silent.

The system watched him approve the memorial for a while, and finally couldn't bear to express his opinion.

[Letting Huo Junru talk to Queen Chun...is it unfair to your bet with Pei Yuan? ]

Xie Xiangzhi's pen and ink on the rice paper froze, and a thick halo was formed.

[The bet did not mention fair play on the battlefield.Chu and Yan have the same military strength, and if they compete head-on, it will take about five minutes of God's will.So at the beginning, it was not the strength of the frontal battlefield. ]

He curled his lips unconsciously as he spoke, as if mocking the system's innocence: [Guess, after this bet, did Pei Yuan contact the prince of Chun who I never had the chance to meet? ]

System: [...I thought the competition between you... would be a little more upright...]

Xie Xiangzhi was surprised: [Do you think I am an upright gentleman?Pei Yuan looks like it, but you know he doesn't think so at all. ]

[I thought that when he and I joined forces to send troops to the South, you knew that neither of us was...a gentleman? ]

system:[……]

The system wisely does not continue to dwell on this topic: [However, speaking of it, I thought it would be very rare to have a Lin Xi who was unique and far ahead of the times, but I didn't expect there to be a Huo Junru. ]

[They are very similar. ] Xie Xiangzhi sighed slightly, [Giving the marriage...it's just that I didn't do it well enough. ]

[Host, are you blaming yourself?But it's not your fault, it would have been a happy marriage. ] The system is puzzled.

[Not self-blame. ] Xie Xiangzhi didn't explain much.

The system has complicated feelings towards Lin Xi and Huo Junru: [Perhaps their souls are destined to be out of date. ]

[No. ] Xie Xiangzhi refuted it, [They are not incompatible with the times, they are the pioneers of later generations. ]

The author has something to say:

That's all for the female bureaucracy, don't overwhelm the host.

Although it is a quick time travel article, I still want to try to write a supporting role that is not a villain. After all, I can’t let Zhizhi and Aze sing a big drama. I'm a bit uncertain about the proportion of the leading role and the supporting role).Of course, since it is a quick-transmission essay, I will still focus on Zhizhi.Hope you all continue to love me.
