After writing the memorial, Chang Le went straight to the Xuanzheng Hall. When Chang Le came over, Li Shimin was already in the Xuanzheng Hall. Seeing Chang Le coming, Li Shimin smiled and said, "Li Zhi, why are you here?"
"Father, this is a memorial written by me." Chang Le said with a smile.
"Just give this to your third brother and let him take a look." Li Shimin waved his hand.
"I know, but I guess the third brother is not in Liangyi Hall at the moment. Father, please take a look, because there are some things that my daughter wants to ask you, Aye." Chang Le said seriously.
Hearing what Changle said, Li Shimin immediately sat up straight. He didn't care about other things, but when his daughter asked his father, he wanted to take a closer look at this.
Bringing Changle's memorial over, Li Shimin asked her to sit down while he opened it and read it.
"Attendant Chang, how is my father's health lately?" Chang Le looked at Chang Lin beside him and asked with a smile.
"Replying to His Majesty, His Majesty is in good health and in a good mood recently, and his appetite is much better than before." Chang Lin immediately replied with a smile.
"That's good, but I think my father seems to have gained some weight recently. I heard from Master Sun that it is not good for people to be too fat when they reach middle age. Chang, you have to ask my father to exercise more. ." Changle nodded and said with a smile.
"It's Your Highness, I remember it." Chang Lin also laughed.
Li Shimin watched from the side but frowned. After a long time, he raised his head and looked at Changle and said, "Is this what your third brother asked you to do?"
"No, fourth brother." Changle shook his head.
"Chang Lin, go and declare the order and ask the guards to beat Li Tai with twenty military sticks." Li Shimin said fiercely.
"Yes" Chang Lin bent down and saluted, but his movements were not fast, because he knew that His Highness Changle would definitely stop him.
"Aye, what are you doing?" Chang Le was dumbfounded, "This is something I want to do myself, and it has nothing to do with Fourth Brother."
"Isn't it the advice he gave you?" Li Shimin said.
"That's right, but it's also what my daughter wants to do." Chang Le said helplessly.
"Chang Lin, wait a minute, Li Zhi," Li Shimin called to Chang Lin.
"My daughter has always wanted to find something she can do forever, including after marriage." Changle took the initiative to mention his marriage for the first time.
Hearing this, Li Shimin paused for a moment. Most women in the Tang Dynasty almost stayed at home after marriage. Some of them were exposed to the public, but they were ordinary people. Rich people only went out to go shopping. , there is basically nothing to do.
Of course, there are some women who are responsible for some businesses in some households, but in fact they are not particularly numerous.
The princesses of the Tang Dynasty were even less so.
Now that Changle said this, Li Shimin thought that the Tang Dynasty was different now. Not only Li Yan was an official in the court, but also there were many women in the central bank, although more of them were He is an official of sixth or seventh grade, but he will definitely be promoted in the future.
"In this matter, daughters can represent the women of the Tang Dynasty, and after thinking about it, daughters are more suitable." Changle said, "Even if we don't do this now, we will definitely do it in the future, because it will be done soon. With the improvement of women's status, too many women among the people have begun to work in some factories."
"When the number of such women begins to increase, it will inevitably change, and there are also unfair aspects towards women in some societies. Changing people's minds is not a matter of time, but it cannot be Let some people bully you anytime and anywhere." Chang Le said seriously.
Although she has not investigated, she knows that there must be many women who are beaten to death by their husbands for no apparent reason.
Because there are many such things in wealthy families. Many of the women from wealthy families come from other wealthy families. Even these cannot be protected, let alone ordinary people's families?
"Have you thought about it? This thing is not that easy to do, because tradition is not easy to challenge. If you do some things, huge conflicts may break out."
"If nothing else, men have always been superior to women. Some women have been beaten several times. I ask you for help. Do you care? If you do, what will you do? You came to the door, and maybe as soon as you left, this woman's husband felt that she was If you dare to ask for help, you may be beaten even harder later!"
"What's more, if this woman wants to reconcile, will you care? She would rather tear down ten temples than regret one marriage."
"Even sometimes, this woman wanted to divorce, but in the end she regretted it, because divorce means that she probably doesn't have any children at home. Where should she go after divorce? Can she be in the house? Will Datang survive?"
"These things are not that simple. It is difficult for an upright official to deal with household chores. The trivial matters of life in a family are the most complicated. It is not that easy for an outsider to get involved." Li Shimin sighed and said helplessly.
"And, more importantly, you are not married yet. There are many things that you cannot understand at all now. There is a lot of life after marriage that you cannot understand, and naturally you cannot empathize with it."
"And even if you get married, you won't be able to empathize. Because your family is different from theirs."
Li Shimin said sincerely that his Guanyin maid was already a wise man, but there were still a lot of things to do in his harem. Ordinary families would only have more, and even common people's families would not have too few.
Chang Le was silent for a moment. Indeed, many things she just thought were a bit simple. But when Li Shimin said this, Chang Le also thought of the difficulty involved. It was really not simple.
"However, my daughter still wants to give it a try, thinking that someone will always have to do it. If my daughter doesn't do it, someone else will do it sooner or later, because as our Datang becomes more and more prosperous, as my Datang's productivity increases, With the gradual liberation, more and more women are beginning to participate in social production, and sooner or later such contradictions will intensify."
"More importantly, with the popularization of education in Datang, more and more girls will be sent to school to study. As long as they read enough books, people's minds will think more, instead of simply Accepting fate is the inevitable result of the social progress of the Tang Dynasty."
"At that time, if we start to set up such a department again, it will be too late. It is better to set it up as early as possible. Now we can pilot it on a small scale and gradually accumulate experience. When we want to expand in the future, we will also have enough work experience. " Changle said seriously.
She had read many books that Third Brother had taken out, and she had always found that these contents were consistent with the current situation of the Tang Dynasty.
