19 years later, it was the 35th year of Sheng'an [708 AD].
Daming Palace, Hanliang Palace.
In August, the lotus on Taiye Pond is in flowering period, and the flowers bloom just right.
Xiao Mingcheng, who was dressed in black uniforms, sat with He Lanminzhi, holding cups to drink. Outside the fence, there were bustling blue lotus leaves and graceful lotus flowers. The setting sun slanted, and it was a rare leisure time.
At this moment, a clear and crisp shout came from outside the Hanliang Hall, and one could tell who had arrived.
"Aye! Uncle Aye! Mingkong is here!"
Xiao Mingcheng thought that too many people were an eyesore, so in order to be alone with He Lanmin, the servants in the hall were sent outside early to guard.At this time, people who can walk in with a yell don't have to think about it at all.
Striding into the Hanliang Palace was a young woman in her twenties, with bright features and charming phoenix eyes.Dressed in bright yellow palace attire, gorgeous yet sassy.Looking closely, the palace dress was actually embroidered with a four-clawed golden dragon, so delicate and lifelike.
If someone compares this palace attire with the crown prince's attire, he can find that, except for the women's dress, the patterns on it are obviously only used by the prince of the Tang Dynasty.
This person is none other than Xiao Mingcheng's adopted daughter from Chen Wang Li Zhong many years ago. Her name is Li Zhao, her small character is Ming Kong, and she was first named Princess Chaoyang.After the fifteenth day, Xiao Mingcheng established him as the crown prince, the empress dowager.
Counting the dynasties and generations, the existence of the empress dowager is too outrageous, even more outrageous than the emperor's last edict bestowing a male queen on the current emperor.However, the voices of opposition from all officials in the court were unexpectedly low. On the one hand, Xiao Mingcheng's prestige among the people was extremely high. He believed that Princess Chaoyang was worthy of the position of the crown prince, and the common people thought that the crown prince was a queen.Moreover, Princess Chaoyang is not very old, but she has really done a lot of practical things. These common people see it in their eyes and remember it in their hearts.
On the other hand, it is because the court is no longer dominated by men. Since the third year of Sheng'an, the first girls' school has appeared in Chang'an. It's changing, but it's just not being taken seriously by men.
After staying in Sheng'an for 16 years, Xiao Mingcheng deliberately asked Shangguan Tingzhi about Shangguan Wan'er, who was worshiped by Huangmen's servant, at a court meeting shortly after Xiao Mingcheng's wedding, in front of all civil and military officials, because he learned that Shangguan After Wan'er's landscape poems, I appreciate them very much.
Shangguan Tingzhi has been an official for many years, and he is still stable. He immediately expressed his gratitude and admiration to Xiao Mingcheng on behalf of Shangguan Wan'er.
But Xiao Mingcheng didn't let it go, but directly issued an order to announce that Shangguan Wan'er had an audience.
This day is undoubtedly remembered by the aspiring women of the Tang Dynasty, because it was on this day that the fate of the women of the Tang Dynasty began to change.
The sage took an examination of Shangguan Wan'er in public, and Shangguan Wan'er lived up to the name of a talented woman. She did not add any points to her writing, and she wrote it in a short time. Her rhetoric was gorgeous, just like her grandfather's "Shangguan style".
Holy Joy.
Just when the officials thought that Xiao Mingcheng was interested in Shangguan Wan'er and planned to bring her into the palace as a concubine, Xiao Mingcheng issued an order to make Shangguan Wan'er a direct bachelor and enter the Hongwen Museum.
Six months later, the Holy Majesty issued a decree to set up Xiuwenguan to recruit scholars from all over the world, regardless of gender, to write poems and compete with them, to promote and reward them, and it was Shangguan Wan'er who presided over the establishment of Xiuwenguan.
In the 17th year of Sheng'an, Shangguan Wan'er, a bachelor of Xiuwenguan, wrote a letter asking for women's imperial examinations.
Hundreds of officials were in an uproar, and many ministers thought that this was a big mistake, and they must not be the first.
Xiao Mingcheng is also a ruthless person, so all the officials were allowed to debate in the hall, ten people who opposed it, and ten people who agreed with it, they argued in the Hanyuan Hall, and then Xiao Mingcheng made a verdict.
In this debate, from the sunrise in the east to the golden black in the west, the women headed by Shangguan Wan'er gradually gained the upper hand. Finally, Xiao Mingcheng issued an order to allow women to participate in the imperial examination.
In the 17th year of Sheng'an, the imperial examination system under Xiao Mingsheng's rule was very different from the time of the first emperor. Originally, the regular examinations in the imperial examination were Mingjing and Jinshi. Candidates had two sources: students and tributes. If you want to take the imperial examination, you must go to the prefectural and county examinations. After you get the status of Juren, you will take the Chunwei Examination hosted by the Ministry of Rites, and then the Palace Examination hosted by the Emperor himself.
If women want to take part in the imperial examination, the process is the same as that of men, and only some female officials will be assigned to be responsible for the verification of their integrity.
In August of that year, it was the time for the examination of Qiuwei County, and it was also the examination for women to obtain the qualification of Chunwei based on their talents.However, there were very few respondents, and only ten women were finally admitted to the Juren status, and seven of them were students from Chang'an's local women's high school.
Although these seven people are nothing among the nearly ten thousand juren, and many officials even muttered in private that they were humiliating themselves, but in the second year of spring, three of the ten women were admitted to the same exam. Jinshi, the two qualified for the palace examination.Although the two women failed to rank among the top three after the palace examination, their talents and learning were recognized, and like other Jinshi, they were given official positions by Xiao Mingcheng without discrimination.
This is just the beginning.
In the 28th year of Sheng'an, more and more women were born in imperial examinations, so that when Xiao Mingcheng wanted to make Princess Chaoyang the crown prince, they were the most loyal supporters of the empress dowager. Zhao became an unprecedented empress dowager.
Now, seven years have passed in a flash, Li Zhao, the emperor's daughter, has done extremely well. Even if she can't understand Li Zhao's identity as a woman, she has to admit that the saint teaches well, and her highness is worthy of great responsibility... But why did she Not a man, why not a man!
Why did the sage adopt a princess back then, why he still refused to adopt a concubine after so many years, why is there only an adopted princess under his knees now, why he has to adopt a prince instead of adopting a prince, why, this is why!
Xiao Mingcheng smiled but said nothing.
"Aye, Uncle Aye." The Empress Dowager Li Zhao approached Xiao Mingcheng and He Lan Minzhi with a smile, and "Uncle Aye" was the name Li Zhao invented.She quickly hugged He Lanmin's arm, leaned her head on He Lanmin's shoulder, and rubbed it.
He Lanminzhi was amused by Li Zhao's young daughter's attitude, raised her hand and rubbed Li Zhao's hair, and teased, "Yo, what's the matter, I'm so happy."
Xiao Mingcheng secretly sighed that today's leisure time with Minzhi would be disturbed by Li Zhao again. He never expected that his mother would look like this after being raised by him with the education of a crown prince, majestic and stable outside, but greasy and sticky at home. That is to say, he raised it himself for 20 years, otherwise Xiao Mingcheng would be scared to death by the expression on this almost identical face.
Xiao Mingcheng echoed: "Yeah, this look of spring heart sprouting, let alone seeing Ruyi Lang..."
Xiao Mingcheng's words stopped abruptly, and his phoenix eyes, which were very similar to Li Zhao's, narrowed slightly.He looked at Li Zhao who rarely showed a shy look, his expression became serious, and he couldn't believe it: "I really saw Mr. Ruyi?!"
Xiao Mingcheng is used to teasing Li Zhao with Ruyi Langjun, but it's just a joke and can't be taken seriously.
Li Zhao's face was flushed, she hugged He Lan Minzhi's arm tightly, and rubbed her hot face on He Lan Minzhi's sleeve, saying nothing was worth a thousand words.
He Lanminzhi's eyes suddenly turned cold.
He seemed to recall the heart-piercing feeling when his sister was asked to marry him by someone.
Xiao Mingcheng and He Lanmin looked at each other, sat up straight at the same time, looked at Li Zhao, who rarely showed the shyness of his little daughter, and said in unison: "Who is it?!"
Xiao Mingcheng's eyes showed a fierce look, who hooked up with his mother's reincarnation, the daughter he had raised all his life!
Li Zhao was shy to himself for a while, then sat up straight, although shy but generously said: "Daughter... the man my daughter is looking for is named Wu Chongzhi, who is Zheng Wuyou and the eldest son of Dali."
Xiao Mingcheng: "...Wu Youji's eldest son?"
Li Zhao nodded, and then seriously reported the information he had investigated to Xiao Mingcheng and He Lanminzhi one by one, without any details, basically including all the information about Wu Chongzhi from childhood to adulthood, even the date of birth.
The corners of Xiao Mingcheng's mouth twitched slightly.
Xiao Mingcheng is undoubtedly familiar with Wu Youji's name, because Wu Youji's grandfather Samurai Rang and his maternal grandfather Samurai Xun are blood brothers. When his grandfather was reused by Emperor Gaozu, Samurai Rang followed him and gained a lot of benefits.But after the grandfather passed away, the samurai Rang and other descendants did not treat the grandmother, orphans and widows kindly.
In her previous life, in order to control the government, her mother had no choice but to use the Wu family, and Wu Youji was one of them.
The reason Xiao Mingcheng was impressed by this name was that Wu Youji was Taiping's second son-in-law.Moreover, in order for Wu Youji to marry Taiping, the mother also gave Wu Youji's original wife to death, which can be said to be very out of the ordinary.
Now, the reincarnated mother actually fell in love with Wu Youji's eldest son, which makes people...Speaking of which, Wu Chongzhi, this name is very strange, and there seems to be no record of him in the history books.Presumably without his mother's intervention, he and his first wife are deeply affectionate husband and wife, and naturally they will continue to have children.
but!No matter what, Xiao Mingcheng felt a little uncomfortable when he thought that a good daughter would... marry a man.Especially since this girl was the reincarnation of his mother, it was a double blow.
On the other hand, He Lan Minzhi was not happy when he heard it, but seeing Li Zhao's investigation of Wu Chongzhi so clearly, and his eyes were full of smiles when he said it, He Lan Minzhi's desire to be a stick was getting weaker and weaker. .At the end, he couldn't help asking: "Mingkong, does that Wu Chongzhi know your identity?"
Li Zhao shook his head and said, "He doesn't know."
"I heard from you that you and Wu Chongzhi seem to have only met twice and rarely talked. Did your feelings for him come too soon?" He Lanminzhi questioned quite calmly, "And Wu Chongzhi, he is also Do you admire you? In the matter of feelings, after all, it is about the promise between two people."
"Daughter just knows." Li Zhao leaned on He Lanminzhi's shoulder, and said in a very serious tone, "It was a very mysterious feeling. My daughter felt happy when she saw him. She always felt that she had been waiting for this man for a long time. I just want to look at him day and night. Uncle Aye, you didn't see it. He was dumbfounded when he saw his daughter. He didn't even look at the road, and even the hawker stalls selling pears on the street It was knocked over."
Li Zhao was proud of herself, she didn't really value her beauty too much, she was a princess based on her ability, not on her face.But seeing the foolish look of the boy she had a crush on, she was quite proud.
The expression on Xiao Mingcheng's face became even less.
Come on, my daughter's mind has been completely taken away, and there is no way to save her.
Although a little depressed, Xiao Mingcheng and He Lanmin are not the kind of people who want to help fight mandarin ducks no matter what.In particular, Li Zhao is 22 years old this year. As the empress dowager, the future empress, it doesn't matter whether she is in bloom or not, but it is indeed time to get married.
Xiao Mingcheng and He Lanminzhi didn't summon them with great fanfare, but left the palace in low clothes, and took a sneak peek at Wu Chongzhi who had taken his daughter's heart away.With just one glance, Xiao Mingcheng and He Lanmin fell into silence.
After a long time, He Lanmin said dryly: "This Wu Chongzhi does look a bit like...uh..."
"Father." Xiao Mingcheng kindly added to help He Lanmin.
To be exact, it is not somewhat similar, but carved out of the same mold at all!It's just that the gentleman in front of him is young and has not yet grown a beard, so he looks like him in He Lanmin's eyes.But Xiao Mingcheng had seen his father when his face was pale and beardless, it was exactly the same as that Wu Chongzhi not far away.
Coupled with that seemingly intimacy...
At the beginning, he murmured that if he lived long enough, he might be able to see the reincarnation of his father, look, didn't he see it.Moreover, he also fell in love with Li Zhao, the reincarnation of his mother, which can be regarded as fate in previous lives.
Xiao Mingcheng shrugged, and said: "It seems that there will be a wedding in the palace soon."
He Lanmin looked at Xiao Mingcheng with an indescribable face, a son-in-law who looked very similar to his father... Didn't he have any strange feelings in his heart?
Xiao Mingcheng hehe.
Seeing that he has been raising Li Zhao who is exactly like his mother for so many years, is there any discomfort?
Li Zhao, who got Xiao Mingcheng's nod, immediately found Wu Chongzhi, and told her her true identity and her intention to marry him into the East Palace.
Wu Chongzhi was stunned.
He was tossing and turning about Li Zhao's sleepless nights, but marrying into the East Palace... It didn't seem unacceptable.
In particular, Li Zhao held Wu Chongzhi's hand in a serious manner, expressing that they are a couple for life, just like her Aye and her uncle Aye, and they will never hug each other when they see each other.
Wu Chongzhi nodded.
In this way, Wu Chongzhi married into the East Palace, as the concubine of the concubine.It sounds a bit nondescript, but it is the same as the original side-by-side king, with the same power and different name.
In the first year Wu Chongzhi married into the East Palace, the Empress Dowager became pregnant.
Xiao Mingcheng was ready to fight.
If there is any trouble for a woman to become an official for the emperor, in Xiao Mingcheng's view, it is because of childbirth and reproduction.
Xiao Mingcheng did not give women preferential treatment, but only gave them the opportunity to compete on the same starting line as men. Of course, such fairness is the greatest preferential treatment in the eyes of women.However, women's natural identity also has a layer of reproduction. It is impossible for every woman who becomes an official to stop marrying and have no offspring.
There is no shortage of talented and courageous women in the Tang Dynasty. In order to change their own destiny, they also made up their minds not to marry or have children.But not getting married and not having children is of no benefit to the country's future. From the perspective of King Xiao Mingcheng, he wished that the Tang Dynasty would have more people, and the sparsely populated Central Plains would not be able to occupy the vast land and resources.
After much deliberation, Xiao Mingcheng ordered that the female officer must report if she is pregnant, and then a [-]-month long leave will be granted.During this year, the imperial court only issued half a year's salary, and the only guarantee was that the original official position of the female officer would be retained, and the official would be reinstated after twelve months.But in this case, each female officer can only apply once. If she becomes pregnant again, she will still be suspended for [-] months, but she will not receive a salary and will not retain her original position.
After returning, we can only wait for a vacancy.
A female official can take a long vacation when she is pregnant, but it is not so simple when this kind of thing happens to the empress dowager or even the empress.
The Empress has no way to ask for a long vacation. Although she can let her ministers act as agents of the government, it will be detrimental to the future of the country in the long run.
The most important thing is that for a woman to give birth is a trip to the gate of hell. The emperor can marry more concubines and have more children, but for the empress, every child born is her life.If one fails, you have to change another day... Or, after Mingkong gives birth to this child, find her a sterilization drug that won't hurt her body, so that she won't have another child?
Although Xiao Mingcheng vaguely expected that the current Li Zhao and Wu Chongzhi could give birth to his younger brothers and sisters, but it was too dangerous.

Daming Palace, Hanliang Palace.
In August, the lotus on Taiye Pond is in flowering period, and the flowers bloom just right.
Xiao Mingcheng, who was dressed in black uniforms, sat with He Lanminzhi, holding cups to drink. Outside the fence, there were bustling blue lotus leaves and graceful lotus flowers. The setting sun slanted, and it was a rare leisure time.
At this moment, a clear and crisp shout came from outside the Hanliang Hall, and one could tell who had arrived.
"Aye! Uncle Aye! Mingkong is here!"
Xiao Mingcheng thought that too many people were an eyesore, so in order to be alone with He Lanmin, the servants in the hall were sent outside early to guard.At this time, people who can walk in with a yell don't have to think about it at all.

It is impossible for every woman who becomes an official to stop marrying and have no offspring.
There is no shortage of talented and courageous women in the Tang Dynasty. In order to change their own destiny, they also made up their minds not to marry or have children.But not getting married and not having children is of no benefit to the country's future. From the perspective of King Xiao Mingcheng, he wished that the Tang Dynasty would have more people, and the sparsely populated Central Plains would not be able to occupy the vast land and resources.
After much deliberation, Xiao Mingcheng ordered that the female officer must report if she is pregnant, and then a [-]-month long leave will be granted.During this year, the imperial court only issued half a year's salary, and the only guarantee was that the original official position of the female officer would be retained, and the official would be reinstated after twelve months.But in this case, each female officer can only apply once. If she becomes pregnant again, she will still be suspended for [-] months, but she will not receive a salary and will not retain her original position.
After returning, we can only wait for a vacancy.
A female official can take a long vacation when she is pregnant, but it is not so simple when this kind of thing happens to the empress dowager or even the empress.
The Empress has no way to ask for a long vacation. Although she can let her ministers act as agents of the government, it will be detrimental to the future of the country in the long run.
The most important thing is that for a woman to give birth is a trip to the gate of hell. The emperor can marry more concubines and have more children, but for the empress, every child born is her life.If one fails, you have to change another day... Or, after Mingkong gives birth to this child, find her a sterilization drug that won't hurt her body, so that she won't have another child?
Although Xiao Mingcheng vaguely expected that the current Li Zhao and Wu Chongzhi could give birth to his younger brothers and sisters, but it was too dangerous.
