Chapter 179 Sui An, You Said You Like Me
“I was born in Tianxuan, and I’ve seen worlds where women hold high positions, and because of the need for power, the status of men there is also not low.
I'm not asking for Tianxuan's policies to be universal across Qianheng. I simply hope Your Majesty can make the world more fair. Marriage is a matter of mutual consent. Mistakes are made by both men and women, and powerful people are not limited to men. Can women be given more choices?
I think Your Majesty should be able to change the prejudices of the world, right?"
Bai Sui looked at Ye Zihu quietly, waiting patiently for his answer.
Ye Zihu saw determination in her eyes. He pulled the chair where Ye Lingche had just sat in front of Bai Sui'an and sat down.
"Do you think Qian Heng is not a good person now?" Ye Zihu asked.
"I've only been to this town and Lijia Village. As for life, I haven't seen many people having a hard time. It's just that some places are really helpless."
Bai Sui'an told what he had seen and heard during this period.
Some people kidnap children and destroy other people's families in order to make a living. Some people spend countless money to hope their children will become successful, but they don't expect to meet a scammer.
Some families were bullied because they didn't give birth to a boy.
Some families have a boy, but his father is in debt and has to sell his wife to pay off the debt.
"A husband can easily sell his wife to pay off his debts. He thinks keeping a son will help carry on the family line. But what he doesn't realize is that without a mother, the child will have no one to teach him. If the father doesn't care about the child, the child will resort to stealing and robbing to survive. Is this carrying on the family line, or is it just leaving a scourge on the world?"
“There aren’t that many bad people in the world, but the more good people they harm, the more people who haven’t had time to distinguish between good and bad will choose to be bad.”
This is why Bai Sui'an takes care of Ji Wei.
Sending him to the yamen to be punished for his theft is also a form of care. What if Ji Wei comes out of the yamen?
A child looks at the busy streets. He has no skills, stinks and is disliked by everyone. In order to survive, he will still take the same path, and this cycle will continue. It is not that he is not taking the right path, but that he cannot walk on it.
No one taught him.
"So I want fairness. The law is dead, but Your Majesty is alive. I hope that women can also pass the imperial examinations to bring honor to their family. Marriage is equal in status. Both men and women can support the family and both can be the head of the household. Women also have the right to divorce their husbands. People are equal in status. If they make a mistake, they should be punished."
"Then can women sit on the throne?"
Ye Zihu's eyes flashed coldly. Even though he knew Bai Sui'an was not afraid of him, he still wanted to release some pressure to test Bai Sui'an's resilience.
Bai Sui'an said, "If that woman truly has the talent to govern a country, why not let her sit at the highest position? The longer a country exists, the more prosperous it is. And you, who made this decision, have prolonged the life of the country. You will be a wise ruler praised by everyone thousands of years from now."
"You are praising me." Ye Zihu was very sure.
Bai Sui'an didn't deny it either: "If you say something nice, Your Majesty will be happy to hear it, right?"
"What you said is not bad. I will consider it. However, I don't like to be the bad guy. I will ask you to be the bad guy then."
He changed his self-proclaimed title, indicating that he was making this promise in his capacity as emperor.
"Okay, just say it was me who proposed this. If anyone is dissatisfied, come and hit me. If you can't even beat a woman, then forget it."
Ye Zihu chuckled: "Okay."
It was only because Bai Sui'an had been rude to him before that he patiently listened to her many good ideas.
Much better than those flatterers in the palace.
Bai Sui'an opened the door and went out, only to see Mu Lin standing outside with his medicine box on his back. He smiled and bowed, "Greetings, Princess. I didn't hear anything just now, please rest assured, Princess."
This is no different from saying that you heard it.
Since the emperor is there, Bai Sui'an is not afraid.
"Thank you, Doctor Mu, for treating His Majesty. I will leave first." Bai Sui'an bowed and smiled, then left.
There were only two chairs in the room, so Mu Lin had a place to sit when he went in.
He put down the medicine box, and Ye Zihu couldn't wait to speak: "Isn't this daughter-in-law nice?"
"The princess cares about the world, and I, a commoner, am also part of it, so I naturally think she is good."
"What do you think of what she said?"
"I was born from my mother's womb. I have a wife and daughter at home. What the princess said is good for them. I think it's good."
.
Ye Lingche was waiting for Bai Sui'an downstairs. When he saw her coming up, he stood up to greet her.
Hooking Bai Sui'an's arm has become Ye Lingche's habit. After his leg healed, he always let Bai Sui'an take him for a walk.
Sometimes he even wanted to hold Bai Sui'an and walk together.
He couldn't help wanting to have more contact with Bai Sui'an. Fortunately, Bai Sui'an liked him, so he could stick to him more.
"Are you alone?" Bai Suian held Ye Lingche's arm and slowed down his pace to walk with him.
"They are all in the kitchen. The chefs that my father sent here are all very good cooks. Rong Kang doesn't want to come out after he went there."
Since they are all away, it is better to arrange things.
Bai Sui'an lowered his eyes and said, "When will they talk about their life stories? Should Shushu's life story be made clear?"
The little girl is the most special among the three children. Bai Sui'an always wants to be nicer to her, for fear that she will be sad when she knows about her biological parents in the future.
Ye Lingche patted Bai Sui'an's back and whispered, "It can't be hidden. The whole city knew that she was taken back to the palace by the emperor. It's better for her to know it here than to be hurt when she is alone outside."
"What should I do?" Bai Sui'an's voice was shaking, "She's so strong-willed..."
"My brother and his wife also treat her as their own. You and I both treat her as our own child. She will be sad sooner or later. It's better to let her know earlier so that we can help her get through it together. Once this hurdle is over, there will be many days in the future for her to be happy."
Ye Lingche walked over to Bai Sui'an and half-knelt, a faint smile on his lips. Suddenly, he kissed the corner of Bai Sui'an's mouth, "Don't cry."
Bai Sui'an was stunned for a moment before he raised his hand to cover his mouth and said, "I'm not crying."
Her eyes were clear, without any moisture.
"I'm not someone who cries easily."
She said a few words but did not express any dissatisfaction with Ye Lingche's offensive behavior.
Ye Lingche happily pulled Bai Sui'an into his arms, without a trace of apology: "I was wrong about you."
Bai Sui'an lightly hit his abdomen twice.
After lying down for some time and sitting for a long time, Ye Lingche's stomach was soft.
"You seem very happy?" Bai Sui'an asked, "Is it because your father and you have come to terms with the matter?"
"No." Ye Lingche lowered his head and buried his face in Bai Sui'an's neck and shoulder, and said sullenly, "Sui'an, you said you like me."
He was crazy. After being out for a long time, Bai Sui'an's firm voice at that time was still echoing in his ears. He could see the smile on Bai Sui'an's face when he found out that he was embarrassed by closing his eyes.
He couldn't bear it, he also liked Bai Sui'an very much.
