Your Majesty, she doesn't want to flip the brand

The memorial held by Prime Minister Ye was the result of Yang Bai'an and Liu Lanze for more than a year. They basically studied all the existing laws of the Zhou Dynasty. After making revisions and optimizations, I finally wrote such a memorial.

After carefully reading the content of the memorial, Prime Minister Ye did not speak for a long time, but heaved a long sigh.

"Ning Xuan, tell Daddy honestly, did you ask His Majesty to do these things, or did His Majesty want to do them?" Prime Minister Ye closed the memorial and looked at Ye Ningxuan seriously.

"Your Majesty wants to do this, and so do I." Ye Ningxuan answered without hesitation.

"I see. Since you want to do it, do it. I will stand by your side in the morning tomorrow." Prime Minister Ye handed the memorial to Ye Ningxuan again, "Ning Xuan, don't disappoint Your Majesty's trust in you , but don't give all your trust to His Majesty."

"Don't worry, Daddy, I understand." After hearing Ye Chengxiang's answer, Ye Ningxuan showed a smile on her face, "My Majesty and I both want to make this world a better place."

Prime Minister Ye did not stay longer in the palace, and after declining the request to eat together, he left the palace full of hesitation.

The next day, under the anxious waiting of all the officials, Wei Zhong's voice sounded in the hall.

"The queen is here—" Wei Zhong stood in his old position, watching Ye Ningxuan walk in wearing the improved court dress.

"The ministers will see the empress, the empress is a thousand years old." Even if the officials were reluctant in their hearts, they could only bow down and kneel down to worship Ye Ningxuan.

Ye Ningxuan looked at the dragon chair on the top, took a deep breath and let it out slowly, then took a big step forward, and sat on it upright.

"Excuse me." A clear female voice came from Ye Ningxuan's mouth.

"Thank you, empress." After hearing Ye Ningxuan's words, the courtier who was kneeling on the ground stood up.

"This morning, do you adults have anything you want to report to the Palace?" Ye Ningxuan took the initiative to ask. Since she is sitting in this position, she must fulfill the corresponding obligations.

"The minister has a book to play." Ye Ningxuan is not the first time to go to court, and the officials know that Zhou Xingzhi is standing behind Ye Ningxuan, so they didn't deliberately make things difficult for her, just treat it as Zhou Xingzhi's presence and should report Reporting, the debate that should be debated, the atmosphere of the court meeting became harmonious for a while.

After about half an hour, the courtiers had finished what they needed to say, and they all couldn't help but began to look at Ye Ningxuan from the corner of their eyes.A few officials in the front saw Ye Ningxuan's clothes with keen eyes. After seeing the golden dragon pattern faintly flashing on it, their eyes should not be too wide.

"My lords have finished talking about things, so let's talk about what I want to say." Ye Ningxuan moved her shoulders slightly. Although she was sitting, it was not difficult to keep sitting upright for half an hour. very tiring.

As soon as Ye Ningxuan finished speaking, Wei Zhong came down with a stack of pamphlets and distributed them to the courtiers from front to back.

"Here are some thoughts of this palace and my friends. I want to hear the opinions of all adults." Ye Ningxuan said, with a smile that was just right on the corner of her mouth.

The courtiers were all curious about the contents of the pamphlet, and when they got it, they couldn't wait to flip through it.

Baiguan's first reaction when he saw the pamphlet was similar to Prime Minister Ye's. They were all in a stunned state, and couldn't help but read while in a trance.

"The laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty were established during the time of Emperor Taizu. Hundreds of years have passed by now. Some laws are no longer applicable to the current situation." About half an hour later, Ye Ningxuan opened her mouth. Said.

"I have counted the legal provisions in it, and it involves a total of 86 related laws, so I plan to give you some time to study it carefully." Ye Ningxuan said and paused, "My lords think, how many laws do you need? Days of research?"

"If you want to return to your mother, I think three days is enough." After Ye Ningxuan finished speaking, Prime Minister Ye stood up and directly cooperated with her to set a time, without giving those people a chance to speak.

"Since the prime minister has said so, then I will give you three days." Ye Ningxuan said with a smile, "I hope that after three days, I can hear your opinions."

Among the hundreds of officials, the officials of Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment had the most complex expressions.When it comes to the law, they are undoubtedly the ones who use the law the most and are the most familiar with it in their daily lives.When Ye Ningxuan took out this pamphlet full of new laws, she was imperceptibly saying that they were not effective in their work.

"Okay, let's go back to court." Ye Ningxuan didn't expect to settle this matter in a court meeting. After seeing a booklet in the courtier's hands, she left the court satisfied.

"I will send you off to the Empress." All the officials knelt down again, and when they got up, Ye Ningxuan's figure had disappeared into the hall.

The minister standing in the hall looked at me and I looked at yours, for a moment he didn't know what to say.

"Prime Minister Ye, do you know who wrote the things in this booklet? These things don't seem to be written in a while." Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice couldn't help but ask first, "If it is revised according to the booklet , the status of women will be improved a lot, isn't it the queen..."

The Minister of the Ministry of Justice did not continue, after all, the queen has been very favored since she entered the palace.If the person behind this booklet is really Ye Ningxuan, it means that she started planning last year. Such a city and strategy always make people worry.

"Regardless of whether it is something the Queen concocted or not, you just need to know that His Majesty is aware of the matter and acquiesced." Prime Minister Ye's attitude became a little tougher, "After all, His Majesty even gave Wei Zhong out, which is enough. Explain His Majesty's attitude."

Minister of the Ministry of Justice frowned displeasedly, "Prime Minister Ye, you are the queen's father, if the queen makes any mistakes, you will not be able to escape the blame."

"Then may I ask, did the queen make a mistake again?" Ye Chengxiang snorted dissatisfiedly, "If you have time to argue with me about these things, why don't you read more about the things in this booklet and see if there is anything you can argue with? place."

Prime Minister Ye and Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice broke up unhappy, and the Minister of Rites looked at the booklet in his hand thoughtfully at this moment, wondering if it was his own illusion, he always felt that the words and sentences in this booklet were very familiar, the more It looked more like his own daughter's tone.

"I have already distributed the regulations that you have sorted out to the officials." Ye Ningxuan found Liu Lanze and Yang Bai'an after she came down to court, "Your Majesty and I have some questions to ask you."

"Sister, just ask directly." Liu Lanze said.

"Okay, then I'll be straight." Ye Ningxuan let out a sigh of relief, "Are you willing to serve as officials in the court?"

"I am willing." Liu Lanze had already guessed about Ye Ningxuan's question, so she was not surprised, and quickly gave an answer.

"Sister Lanze is willing, and I am willing too. I want to be with Lanze." Yang Bai'an also expressed his opinion quickly.

"Are you willing to stay in the capital, or go out to other places?" Ye Ningxuan continued to ask.

"The outside world has not yet accepted the matter of a woman being an official. For the sake of safety, we are now in the capital first, and it is okay to go to other places when the time is right." Liu Lanze gave the answer after thinking for a while, "If I didn't guess If it is wrong, you and His Majesty want to put us in the Ministry of Punishment, right?"

Ye Ningxuan smiled, then shook her head, "Your Majesty wants you to serve as the general judge of Shuntian Mansion."

"Tong San?" Yang Bai'an was a little surprised, "Sister Ning Xuan, the Tong San has real power, and the Shuntian Mansion's Tong San can manage more places."

"That's right, what Your Majesty means is that you should combine theory and practice, and use practice to verify your own ideas." Ye Ningxuan said while recalling Zhou Xingzhi's rhetoric, "Although the two of you serve as general judges, the Shangguan only Your Majesty alone, just be directly responsible to His Majesty. In addition, His Majesty plans to assign you a hundred personal guards to make it easier for you to go out of the palace to handle business."

It was beyond Liu Lanze's expectation that Zhou Xingzhi would assign her to the Ministry of Punishment at most, or directly enter the Imperial Academy to participate in the writing of new legal provisions, but she did not expect Zhou Xingzhi to be so courageous, so he directly gave her an opportunity. powerful positions.

Shuntian Mansion, who is directly responsible to His Majesty, plus the personal guards representing the imperial power, her power can compete with Jing Zhaoyi's.

"If Lanze can't make a decision for a while, you can think about it for a few days." Seeing that Liu Lanze didn't say anything, Ye Ningxuan said proactively, "It's not too late to make a decision after thinking about it."

"No, I was just too surprised just now." Liu Lanze withdrew from her own thoughts, "Thanks to the love of His Majesty and sister, for the position of general judge, Bai'an and I will do our best."

"Yes, Sister Lanze and I will work hard!" Yang Bai'an also knew that although Tong San was only a sixth-rank official, as long as His Majesty stood behind him, he could fully display the ability of a third-rank official.

"By the way, Tsing Yi will be transferred to the household department as Yuanwailang in a few days. If you need some funds, you can ask her for it."

"Okay, I've made a note." Liu Lanze nodded, and she didn't ask any other questions.

The position of general judge covers a wide range of rights. In addition to supervising the affairs of Shuntian Prefecture, he can also intervene in the direct militia, household registration and taxation, and various case trials.In other words, if Zhou Xingzhi had to stand behind them all the time, they could completely turn Shuntian Mansion upside down.

With the addition of two general judges and a member of the household department, Liu Lanze had reasonable reasons to suspect that Zhou Xingzhi and Ye Ningxuan wanted to carry out a wide-ranging reform in Shuntian Mansion.
