Three days later, Qu Jie arrived as promised, as did the White Lotus Saint. They each brought less than ten subordinates with them to meet at the hill on the border of Qiongzhou Prefecture.
The hills are not big, but they are rich in vegetation.
It's desolate and deserted, so it's quite secluded.
"I've seen Princess Jiahe thousand years old!" Even though the White Lotus Sect itself is dedicated to rebellion, some deep-rooted ideas are still difficult to change. For example, the status of the royal family is higher than that of the common people. In addition, the purpose of coming here is mainly for cooperation, so Bailian The saint is quite polite.
As soon as they met, they bowed first.
Qu Jie waved her hands indifferently and said:
"You're welcome. My title of princess has long been revoked by my great nephew. Now, like you, we are just wanted criminals. Let's sit down and talk.
Long story short, my purpose was clear.
I just hope that you can help me transport more people from Daqian Kingdom to Nanwan Island. It is best that these people have no food to eat and are about to starve to death, or are in various other difficulties. If they continue to stay here, they will have to escape without death. It’s skinny, yes, and there’s also the gender aspect. I hope it’s still centered on women. If it’s a boy, it’d be better to be a teenager or a baby.
After all, those who are too old have deep-rooted thoughts.
I'm too lazy to modify it. "
"I can pay for it, it's mutually beneficial!"
"Princess Jiahe, of course I can agree with all of these things, but the main reason I came here this time is to talk to you about deeper cooperation. In addition, before we talk about deeper cooperation, there are some things I want to ask you!
Well, the first question is.
Were you really responsible for the theft in Beijing?
You also know that the court now attributes this matter to you and us working together inside and outside.
But in reality, we know very well that we are not cooperating with you. Of course, I don’t mean to blame you. The main thing is that I am a little curious and want to find out the truth. I wonder if you can help to clear up the confusion? "
The White Lotus Saint came here this time, obviously not only to reach a population transportation agreement with Qu Jie, but also those populations are actually very important to them. After all, without those who cannot survive, will starve to death, are corrupted by corrupt officials, and are wealthy. People whose families were ruined by evil gentry.
Who is willing to charge and rebel on their behalf?
However, compared to the deeper cooperation that followed, the White Lotus Saint immediately agreed to this matter.
And I want to figure out what’s wrong with them first.
Was it Qu Jie who dumped her?
When it comes to this, Qu Jie is undoubtedly a little embarrassed, because although she did not deliberately shift the blame and frame the White Lotus Sect, the final result was indeed like this. The imperial court devoted a lot of energy to annihilating the White Lotus Sect.
Some ministers even felt that Princess Jiahe was just bewitched and might have been silenced by the White Lotus Sect, which hated the royal family, so there was no need to worry!
"Uh... all the lost things are indeed with me, and I am indeed not cooperating with you. To be honest, I was shocked when I first received the news. I don't know how they figured it out. Maybe they thought I don't have enough manpower to do that.
It's a problem for you. "
After all, it was indeed her fault, so Qu Jie admitted the matter politely and apologized.
As for compensation, forget about it.
"I didn't expect that it was you who did it. It seems that you may be stronger than we thought!"
Although she had expected it in her heart, when she heard Qu Jie's clear admission, the White Lotus Saint still smiled bitterly and sighed, and then, of course, she continued to ask out of curiosity:.
"By the way, if you have that ability, why don't you directly subvert the entire capital, or carry out assassinations through the dense tunnels? Even I think it is very possible for you to kill the emperor and succeed in rebellion!
Not to mention anything else, just activating the underground river or pouring it into the tunnel would be enough to cause the capital to collapse! "
"Although there are bad people in the capital, most ordinary people are innocent. And I am a woman. I am a princess, that is,
Even if the emperor is successfully killed, it will be much more difficult to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor than it is for my nephews and grandnephews.
The officials would not agree, the vassal king would not agree, and even the local officials in various places would not agree.
At that time, my strength was enough to engage in some intrigues.
But it is impossible to forcefully suppress the entire capital city and the entire world. I still know this, so I might as well make a fortune first and build a country overseas.
Jin can accumulate strength and plan a counterattack.
If you return it, you can realize your dream of having a small country.
At least it can leave the seeds of my thoughts, right? "
In the past few days, Qu Jie has actually conducted a detailed investigation of the White Lotus Holy Mother branch of the White Lotus Sect. She has some understanding of their three ideas and views, and feels that they are indeed very suitable partners for cooperation, so she said so many words.
"Oh, how difficult the world is, and it is even more difficult for women!
Princess Jiahe, I have another question for you, that is, do you also dislike us women being bullied and want to change the world? "
The White Lotus Saint was very sure that she could hear dissatisfaction with the current world from Qu Jie's words. She was dissatisfied that it was much more difficult for her to rebel and become emperor than it was for her nephews and grandsons to ascend the throne and become emperor.
This is consistent with them!
The core reason why they recognized the faction that Maitreya came to the world was that the last promising emperor who claimed to be Maitreya came to the world was Emperor Zetian.
That should be their highest pursuit.
Not some queen mother...
"Have I not made it obvious enough? I am going to build a daughter's kingdom. Could it be that the reason why I build a daughter's kingdom is that I don't like men and only like women?"
"But to be honest, I didn't think too much about it at first. I simply thought that the princess of the current Dynasty was far less powerful than the princess of the Celestial Dynasty, even the princess of the Tang Dynasty. For example, the son of the princess of the Celestial Dynasty could inherit his mother's title. , directly named the county king, but the princess of this dynasty, the son does not even have an ordinary title and can only inherit it from his father. If not, why should I fight with those concubines.
My son will not be killed.
There is also concubinage. If the prince's concubine dared to take concubinage, he would have been beaten to death long ago, but we, ha! !
Moreover, there are records in the history books that at the beginning of the founding of the Celestial Dynasty, many women had titles. For example, the wife of the Marquis of Huaiyang was the Marquis of Miqu. The eldest princess could open a mansion and build a government office like a vassal king, and have her own fiefdom.
There are countless ways for women to set up a daughter-in-law household and recruit a son-in-law.
The widowhood festival is even more ridiculous.
Not to mention the Chinese dynasty, even in the former Song Dynasty, there were many second marriages, or the widows were queens and queens. In this dynasty, they have become a joke. And these, can they still be the rights that we women voluntarily give up?
At that time, I felt that the world was unfair.
Later, I left the capital and sent people to collect more people for the purpose of establishing the country overseas. I also learned more about the situation among the people, such as drowning of female infants, and even the cruel killing of female infants. I just thought that this could scare those people. The baby girl who wants to be reincarnated into their family will only give birth to a son. There are also cases of selling the daughter first and then the wife, pawn trade, and so on.
Alas, selling fields comes second to selling wives and daughters.
All these things made me feel resentful and strengthened my idea of building a daughter’s country.
In fact, I don't know whether this is right or wrong.
But I want to try it!
No matter whether it is right or wrong, you will have no regrets if you try it! "
Qu Jie continued to speak half-heartedly. She actually knew very well that some situations were not just due to the low status of women, but also related to productivity and the system.
But if you talk too much, she may not understand...
