"Second marriage or a widow becoming a queen mother? Can women in the Celestial Dynasty also be granted titles, and the eldest princess be like a vassal king?
This...are these all true! "
You can't blame the White Lotus Saint for being surprised and ignorant. To put it bluntly, many people who are not high enough in social status or wealthy enough, or are not interested in relevant history, do not know this.
After all, history books are never cheap.
At the same time, the imperial examination did not test these things.
How many people can follow?
The White Lotus Saint is in the business of rebellion. How to preach and deceive people and inspire people is the focus of her research. The most she learns about history is the experience of failed rebellions. She recalls and reflects on why she helped Emperor Qiankun and why Emperor Qiankun became emperor. Backstab them?
As for the content mentioned by Qu Jie, it occupies too little space in the history books, maybe just one sentence.
Or included in someone's biography.
Not so easy to attract attention.
"Of course it's true. It's already recorded in the book. There's no need for me to make it up to lie to you.
In the past, although the status of us women was actually not as good as that of men, it was definitely much better than it is now. For example, in the Celestial Dynasty, it was normal for women to divorce their husbands, and even men who had an affair and were killed by their wives were not guilty.
Of course, the evidence needs to be solid.
The same goes for women having affairs outside.
In the prosperous Tang Dynasty, it was very normal for Heli to remarry. No one would say anything. On the contrary, the literati in later dynasties talked a lot, criticizing this and that.
If a woman wants to reconcile, she must first be beaten with a rod.
It's even more outrageous now. The woman Ti Heli seems to have committed some heinous crime. She has violated the laws of heaven and yet she has to be buried in a dignified manner. It is simply ridiculous! "
Qu Jie could see that the White Lotus Saint looked confused, so she kindly gave more information and continued: "In this way, I will recommend some books to you. Many of the contents I said can be found in the books. of.
You can record the list of books. Although the price is high, it should not be affordable for the White Lotus Sect.
"Historical Records", especially the history of the Celestial Dynasty.
"Datang Laws and Orders" can be found in the wedding chapter. Most of the contents are much more reasonable than now.
besides……"
Because there was too much to say, and Qu Jie wanted to discuss the key points with Saint White Lotus quickly, she quickly began to recommend books directly, and asked Saint White Lotus to go back and read the specific contents herself. .
Seeing it for herself would make her more convinced.
She was even more convinced that Princess Jiahe was not lying.
Although the White Lotus Saint was a little confused, she was still quite obedient. She tore off a piece of fabric from her clothes and wrote down a note on the spot. It took about half a stick of incense to be recorded before Qu Jie finished speaking and summed it up along the way:
"These are relatively authoritative history books.
In fact, there is a lot of information, and we can see the problem from some of the stories that have been circulated. For example, the content of some stories now is very different from the content hundreds of years ago. This is not only because the stories are becoming more and more It is becoming more and more plump, which represents the changes in social customs and even people's thinking over the past hundreds of years. "
"Wait a minute, I don't understand.
Let's do this. I will read these books carefully and learn more when I go back. Let's talk about in-depth cooperation, which may have certain risks.
But for both of us.
It should be considered that cooperation will benefit both parties. "
The White Lotus Saint really felt a little headache about what Qu Jie said and some of the words. She knew all the words, but when they were put together, she didn't quite understand.
At the same time, I also feel that these words should be nonsense.
unimportant.
So he immediately interrupted Qu Jie’s summary and quickly talked about important things, that is, in-depth cooperation:
"This is what I think. Am I not the White Lotus Saint of the White Lotus Sect? There is the White Lotus Saint above me. She is the real goddess, the daughter of the Incarnate Mother.
A true daughter of God.
Your status in our White Lotus Sect should be no worse than that of the Son of Haotian, the Son of Heaven, and your age is quite appropriate. You are over fifty this year, nearly sixty, right. It fits the image of the Holy Mother of the White Lotus, so I want to follow you. Your cooperation means that you will be molded into our White Lotus Sect's Holy Mother of the White Lotus. In this way, you have joined our White Lotus Sect, and we, the White Lotus Sect, have also joined your team. The cooperative relationship cannot be closer. "
"In the past, our uprisings have never tried to let women be leaders. At the end of the previous dynasty, we had King Ming come to the world, and the last one we introduced was a man. At the end of the previous dynasty, we had the birth of Maitreya, and the same was true.
So this time, we kind of want you to be our spiritual leader as well as our actual leader.
Today, Emperor Qiankun and Emperor Yongsheng, the prestige of the two great emperors has not disappeared, and the world has not been corrupted to the point that it is difficult to save. If you want to find someone to support, the probability of a successful rebellion is really low, and with you joining, at least we can There is some righteousness. "
"What do you think of this cooperation plan?"
The White Lotus Saint probably knew very well what the so-called White Lotus Saint they created was. It was basically a fictitious god, so she had no fear in her heart and started cooperation and transactions with Qu Jie directly.
And it seemed appropriate to her.
Mutually beneficial!
"Yes, but there is a problem. Once I do this, the court will definitely increase the intensity of the arrest and crackdown on me. Even Nanwan Island may be exposed. I need some time to prepare and expand overseas, so I can't do it this year. , at least next year.
I just give you some time to prepare, and then I can cooperate with you to have the Virgin Mary come to earth.
During this period, you can also send some of the old, weak, sick and disabled people from your White Lotus sect who have lost their fighting ability, but can still do some work more or less, and are not paralyzed, and have to be taken care of by others while lying in bed, all sent to me. Later, I will take them overseas to reclaim wasteland and do handicrafts, etc. It is still a way to survive. "
"You know, I can feed them."
Although the old, weak, sick and disabled people were of little use to Qu Jie, she still felt a little guilty if she didn't do something after taking out so many things from the capital.
But there is no channel for doing charity directly.
The money scattered will not be stolen.
It just so happens that she is planning to cooperate with the White Lotus Sect. The White Lotus Sect is even planning to worship themselves as the Holy Mother, and they can be regarded as a family. Is there any problem for her, the Holy Mother, to help the old, weak, sick and disabled in her family? There is nothing wrong with it.
Moreover, doing so can also make the reputation of the White Lotus Sect a little better for those who work for the White Lotus Sect.
No worries and more.
When the time comes, the imperial court will not care about the disabled soldiers, but the White Lotus Sect will treat all disabled soldiers favorably, and even their relatives and family members. How ironic!
Public opinion has an absolute moral advantage!
