"Prince, is this too harsh? They are still children." Yu Zhen looked on and felt a little distressed. "Besides, she is still a little girl. She can hardly stand."
"There are no children before life and death."
Zhan Changfeng stood with his sleeves folded, touched his hand bones, and raised his thin lips slightly, "So what about the little girl, she can be delicate and can be loved by others, but I never think that women need to be delicate or need love. We are not on behalf of others, let alone someone who needs to be courteous in the face of fairness. Such courtesy is not derogatory."
"I understand what you mean, but the trend here is that women are just accessories, and this is hard to change."
He said it rudely. Zhan Changfeng also knew that this was the current reality, but it didn't mean that she would agree with it. "You have to say such things in front of Gu, don't you know Gu's gender?"
In the past, when she was young, it was difficult to tell the difference between male and female, and she couldn't see any excuse for it. But this year, she has grown taller, her face has gradually opened up, and she doesn't hide it. She has good eyesight and can recognize it. It's just that they tacitly understood it for various reasons and didn't say it out loud.
Yuzhen is one of those who have a tacit understanding. Whether she is a girl or a boy has no interest in him, so why bother talking.
But he didn't expect that Zhan Changfeng would break it by himself. Yuzhen knew this was a sign, and she was determined to change the current situation here.
"But the land of China is like this. Even in Zangyunjian, some people think that women should not be strong. After all, the people in Zangyunjian originally came from China."
Yu Zhen sighed lowly, "I agree with your idea. The Tao can be walked alone, and people don't even do it. There are no distinctions between men and women. But there are always a few people who truly practice Taoism. Most of them are just slightly stronger people. People can do it. There are seven emotions and six desires, just like me. I know that my life will end at innate perfection, so I will seize the possible opportunities to strive for a breakthrough. If I fail to practice, then I will be my deputy hall master. This is exactly what I want. Where the value lies, where the desire lies, and for this reason, I must be in a conflict of interests."
"Men's superiority and women's inferiority are not formed out of thin air. It must exist. I think you understand this better than me," he said, feeling depressed for no reason. "You just want to reestablish the Chinese martial arts. , but you still want to change everyone's perception. This is tantamount to making an enemy of the world. Do you know that you will infringe on men's interests and cause resistance in the patriarchal era?"
Zhan Changfeng looked at Yuzhen with admiration and said, "Fellow Taoist Yuzhen, you are the second person I have met before who has such a long-term vision."
The deputy hall master became Taoist Fellow Yuzhen.
Alone became me.
Yuzhen's heart moved slightly, and he said with a helpless smile, "Should I be happy for fellow Taoist's recognition, or should I be surprised that I am the second one?"
Zhan Changfeng looked sideways at him, "I just missed something. You are the second person alive that I have ever seen who has such a long-term vision."
The first one is of course the long-bearded Taoist.
Of course, those who died were the rulers who contributed to the current situation thousands of years ago.
"You said, 'Women here are accessories and this is the general trend.' You are right or wrong. I don't care about the equality of all living beings. The only thing I can tell you is... the ups and downs of the times are also the general trend."
"If there is a cause, there will be an effect. Then today, I will plant the cause. You can see what the effect looks like in the future."
The emergence of all new things is bound to be accompanied by struggle, and she would not be surprised if there would be a battle of the sexes in the future.
To her, this was just an inevitable process before Datong.
This is the attitude of different people towards the ignorance and backwardness of China.
The ascetics let nature take its course, and although they see through it, they do not take any action.
The people were not aware of their situation at all and just lived according to the way their ancestors lived.
But Zhan Changfeng is a typical imperial thinker. She sees through it and then changes it. She believes that reality can be changed or even controlled by herself, and she will practice according to her own blueprint and verify her thoughts step by step. .
Yuzhen also understood from her words that she had expected it. However, just because of this, Yuzhen's emotions became more complicated. Was she "doing it knowing she couldn't do it", or was it something she could do in her heart? "There is no question of whether it can be done or not."
What kind of person would have such an idea and then open the curtain of struggle without hesitation.
Yuzhen inadvertently pulled his beard in pain, and when he came to his senses, they were about to walk out of the martial arts field. He looked back at the little girl who was being punished. Her legs were trembling, but she never gave up.
"Fellow Taoist, you will definitely accomplish great things in the future."
These words were sincere, and Zhan Changfeng accepted them calmly, "There is a judicial office in Huangzhou, which will be responsible for martial arts disputes from now on. Yuzhen Taoist friends can go there to coordinate when they encounter Daofan problems. Of course, if Yuzhen Taoist friends are willing to submit to the judicial office, , I will leave the position of Palace Master to you."
"Hey, hey, hey," Liu Zhao was horrified. He was just distracted for a while because he couldn't understand their messy words. Why did the prince pry into the corner of Si Xun's mansion.
Liu Zhao was not at ease, so he patted Yu Zhen on the shoulder and joked, "Go ahead, go ahead, it's just convenient for me to have all the power."
Yuzhen shook his head and laughed, but he was also moved for no reason by Zhan Changfeng's words. He pursed his lips and joked, "One day the Si Xunfu no longer wants me, I will come to work for the prince."
"Always waiting."
After sending the two of them out, Zhan Changfeng returned to the study and wrote a letter to Yi Shang. Today, she handed over the evidence that could identify Jingyu Guard to the Si Xun Mansion. The Si Xun Mansion must take action. In addition, this year, Li Hao has failed several battles in succession. It is a time of weakness. If he can get stuck, Si Xunfu had the opportunity to deal with the Jingyu Guards and was able to completely wipe out Li Mao's party.
The conspiracy against Gongsun and his men within China is finally coming to an end. This means that the overall situation will change drastically.
Li Hao was bound to be the first to be eliminated in the war in China. With his reputation of seeking power and usurping the throne, he could be attacked by the princes. So the main thing now is the Yin Dynasty's crusade against Li Hao. When Li Hao is executed, it will be the confrontation between Yi Chang and the princes. The reason is probably that women cannot be emperor. This is the real key.
With only the location of Tongtian Road, Zhan Changfeng is sure to cultivate Huangzhou into the center of Chinese martial arts. The complete control of Huangzhou will also provide military force for Yi Shang to proclaim himself emperor in the future, and even implement the New Deal throughout the world.
At present, the power in Huangzhou must be in the hands of Ling Er and the Red Blood Army, and monitored by the Xuanwu Guards, because only they will defend her orders to the death regardless of right or wrong, and can ensure that the New Deal can be effectively implemented after she leaves. .
The general framework of Huangzhou has been set up and the direction has been pointed out. The rest will be left to time to judge.
In May, Si Xunfu launched a hunt for Jingyuwei.
In June, Li Mao abandoned the imperial city and retreated to Feiyang County.
In July, Yi Shang and the princes allied forces captured Feiyang County, and Li Mao died.
In August, Yi Shang officially proclaimed himself emperor, with the reign name Zhaoming, and moved the capital to Jinzhou. In the same month, protests broke out among the princes, and Donglin Marquis Yuan Jincheng and Han Xianggong Yixingzhi established themselves as emperor in the fiefdom.
China has entered a new round of competition for hegemony.
Yi Shang occupies Jinzhou, the granary capital. It sits on Hengzhou, an important economic and trade center. Together with the southeastern lands including the original imperial city, it has taken over half of the country, and has obvious advantages.
After a busy year, looking back, it’s the days of Tongtian Road again. This time, Zhan Changfeng could leave without any worries.
There was light rain at night, and the aurora was reflected in the rain and dust, abstracting it into a dream.
The driver tightened the reins, got out of the car, pulled out the bench and placed it on the ground, opened the umbrella, and said, "Your Highness, we're here."
He looked at the endless road to the sky with some worry, lowered his head and said respectfully, "Your Highness, do you really want to go alone, even if you bring Xuanwu Guard with you."
"What's the difference between one person and two people?" Zhan Changfeng got off the carriage, met Yu Zhen's gaze, and nodded in salute. The guards on the rooftop today are the same as last year.
"You are too young, and you are easily targeted by people who are not discerning." It was a completely unfamiliar environment, a place where the prince's power could not reach. When he thought of this, the coachman was shocked to realize that she was only eleven this year, no matter how strong she was. , he was just a lonely child in Zangyun Stream.
"Then kill him."
The driver's mother's heart almost overflowed, "But you can't even tell the difference between cabbage and taro."
"..." Zhan Changfeng said expressionlessly, "I can tell the difference."
"Your Highness..."
"Stop," Zhan Changfeng interrupted him, "Don't call me Your Highness in the future. The new dynasty has been established, and the prince of the old dynasty is nothing."
After saying this, she walked out from under the umbrella and went up to the rooftop. A drop of blood fell on the arrow, and the ethereal stairs became real, and she stepped on them.
There were horse hooves in the rain. Zhan Changfeng looked back and saw someone reining in his horse behind the rain and dust. She had a red dragon crown and a black crown, holding a spear, and her desolate eyes gradually gained warmth, leading to a smile.
We look at each other without words, but we only wish to cherish each other.
