Waves of ghostly cries and howls resounded through the streets. The men who were watching felt a chill on their backs, and soon they retreated far away.
Liu Shengsheng looked at them condescendingly.
"Why are you so sentimental? Can't you afford to raise children? In that case, I am doing you a favor. After you are cleansed, you don't have to think about the problem of not being able to raise children..."
"It's you who say that marrying a wife is just to go back and serve your parents, I don't care; it's you who say that women who can't carry on the family line are useless, and I don't care either.
But you also say that baby girls should not appear in this world. Doesn’t this sentence sum up this princess and all women in the world?
And you dare to be so arrogant in front of a woman like this princess. One can imagine how much you look down on me! "
While they were talking, all the dozens of men who were causing trouble were dragged down.
Liu Shengsheng turned her wrist casually and said loudly:
"Perhaps you live in a border city and don't know much about royal rules. Let me tell you. Being disrespectful to the emperor's relatives is a serious crime against the nine tribes. This princess is not killing you, she is just cleaning yourself up. I’ve already given you a lot of face!”
"If you dare to come to make trouble with me again, even if there is no incident at the Abandoned Baby Tower, and you just don't respect me, I can chop off your heads in accordance with royal laws!"
Having said this, she scanned the audience and asked everyone onlookers: "Now, I would like to ask you one last time. Is there anyone who thinks it is wrong for me to destroy the abandoned baby tower? Anyone who wants to come here to cause mischief? Are there any people left? Let’s all stand up together so that this princess can deal with it all at once!”
The whole street was quiet except for the hysterical crying of the group of men...
Most of the men had bursts of cold sweat on their backs and stood there for a long time without daring to speak.
Cleanse...
That would be even more terrifying than killing them...
Seeing that everyone was quiet, Liu Shengsheng was particularly satisfied.
"Since there is no such thing, let's stop here. However, I hope that this matter can really end here. Anyway, my eyes will always remain in the city. If I hear someone mention the abandoned baby tower again, Or if you accuse me of this, the consequences will be purification, so you can try it!"
"I, the princess, will not force equality between men and women in a place where men have been superior to women for many years. However, even if they are not equal, women's lives cannot be completely ignored!"
"So from today on, anyone who abandons his child will be fined a hundred taels if he catches one. If anyone reports it, the one hundred taels will be his!"
"Those who cannot afford the money will be imprisoned for ten years. If you feel that your family is poor and cannot raise too many children, don't have so many children and then throw them away. Innocent children do not owe you anything."
Liu Shengsheng suddenly felt that her idea was good, so she continued with a smile:
"That's it, we can start implementing it from today. When I return to the capital, I will personally tell my father, the emperor and my mother everything that happened here, and then persuade them to add the protection of baby girls to the laws of our country."
"Next, whether you abuse a baby girl or abandon a baby girl, you will be fined a hundred taels or imprisoned for ten years, and anyone who reports it will receive a reward of a hundred taels!"
The whole place was silent.
For a long time, Liu Shengsheng was the only one talking.
All the men who were making a fuss have been dragged down and crippled. .
And the group of men who came over to watch the excitement were all sweating profusely, and no one dared to make a sound...
I used to think that this real princess was just a soft persimmon, but I never imagined that she could be so terrifying.
And what's even more terrifying is that the prince actually lets her do whatever she wants...
Except on the street, there are heads sticking out of almost every window in the houses on both sides of the street.
Countless people gathered around, listening quietly to Liu Shengsheng's words...
The windows of every house were wide open, and many women stuck their heads out.
, I shed two lines of tears from time to time.
There were also men hiding in the house cursing, but every time he heard those sounds, Nan Muze raised his hand, and the soldiers around him would immediately go over and drag out the cursing civilians.
In the end, they were dragged directly to clean themselves.
Just one or two times, and there was no voice of opposition in the entire street.
Although Liu Shengsheng also knew that his move was treating the symptoms but not the root cause.
But to be honest, the essence of human nature is darkness.
It is because of constraints that people live like humans.
Without the restraints of rules and laws, most people who want to come here will unscrupulously vent their malice.
The uncontrolled Abandoned Baby Tower exposed the ugliness of these men.
Anyway, there is no real right or wrong in this world, so what the strong say is right.
The strong are respected, this has been the case since ancient times.
Today, she is the strong one, so she must do what she thinks is right.
After being so quiet for a long time, Liu Shengsheng walked back to Nan Muze, took her hand, and walked out slowly.
"I don't hope that when I pass through this city again, there will be a group of men arguing about not being able to marry a wife, and another group of men arguing about abandoning the baby girl. They are really bringing it upon themselves!"
"..."
Liu Shengsheng said the last sentence very softly, but she said too much, and her voice became hoarse.
Nan Muze held her hand tightly without saying a word.
Du Tingyun had been in a daze for a long time, and like everyone present, there was no sound for a long time.
It wasn't until Liu Shengsheng walked out of the crowd that Bai Cang whispered: "Is she seeking justice for the dead baby girls, or is it because she is a woman and can't stand the idea that men are superior to women?"
"When will you be able to control your mouth?"
Du Tingyun came back to his senses and said this.
Bai Cang said with a hint of embarrassment: "But Your Highness, look at the silence in the whole place, and everyone didn't dare to speak. This is obviously because they were frightened by her thunderous methods, right?
In the future, even if people here no longer abandon baby girls, it is just because they are afraid of being caught and purged, and they do not really want to raise those baby girls.
Anyway, in the final analysis, until those female dolls grow up and have no use value, they will still not have a good life. It is better to throw them away early in the morning to save them from suffering later..."
Du Tingyun glared at him coldly, "You actually think it's right to abandon a baby girl?"
Bai Cang quickly lowered his head, "This is not what I meant..."
"Such bad habits are all over the world, and have been going on for decades or hundreds of years. No one has been able to control them. Even if they are suppressed openly, they can't stop people from tormenting their children secretly. In the end, they can only let it go. , If Shengsheng can do this today, it will be a good thing if it can really ring a bell for the men in this city."
Du Tingyun's voice was very calm, and then he said: "As she said, if you can't afford it, don't have another baby. Now that you have given birth, you can't torture or kill her. That's really cruel."
Bai Cang nodded, "It is indeed cruel."
After a pause, he added: "My subordinates just feel that even if they are in charge of such matters, they cannot be managed. With so many people present, there are really not many people who can listen to the princess's words..."
"Oh, who said that?"
Du Tingyun smiled coldly, "Look ahead."
