Chapter 775 Not Completely Useless
"You still have to pursue a career in politics." Qin Yao said calmly.
The rules of this society are the same as those of the feudal society.
If you want to live a good life and not be sacrificed easily, you can only climb up.
Constantly cross classes and gain class privileges.
But how high you can climb depends on Liu Ji's own ability.
Qin Feng worriedly said, "Will the Holy Queen and the Imperial Master not interfere?"
There are many examples of offending the powerful and being treated unfairly in reality.
Qin Yao shook her head, "I can't be sure of other things, but in the examination room, Liu Ji will not be treated unfairly."
Qin Feng looked at his sister in surprise. Why is she so sure?
Qin Yao explained: "Qi Xianguan is also a disciple of Gong Liangliao, but the Holy Queen has been very close to the Qi family recently. Since she can cooperate with the Qi family, it means that the matter of Gong Liangliao has been over."
"Now that the emperor is seriously ill, on the surface, the crown prince and the eldest princess are jointly supervising the country, but in fact, the Holy Queen is the one who holds the power."
"The struggle between the old family and the new nobles has now entered a white-hot stage. The Holy Queen obviously needs the support of the new nobles, so this spring, she will break the old system and serve as the chief examiner."
"According to Liu Ji and other scholars, all the Jinshi of their class are considered disciples of the Holy Queen."
Qin Yao analyzed to Qin Feng: "You can't just look at the present when you look at things. If you look at the broader space and time scale, you can see that the Holy Queen is laying out a big game."
"What game?" Qin Feng swallowed secretly, feeling a little nervous for no reason.
Qin Yao chuckled and waved her hand to signal her brother not to be so nervous, but did not directly tell him what the game was.
She only told him about the wild articles that had been circulating in the market in recent days as interesting things.
The more Qin Feng listened, the wider his eyes widened, "No way?"
A woman also wants to be king?
"But isn't the prince fine now?"
According to Qin Feng's understanding, the emperor is now seriously ill and has given the important task of regent to the prince, which means that the prince's position is very stable.
To be disrespectful, if the emperor dies, it is only natural for the prince to ascend the throne.
Even if the holy queen holds power and her son becomes the emperor, she will have to give up the power in her hands sooner or later.
After all, the former queen mother and the new emperor were all like this.
If she doesn't give up power, there will be a court struggle.
The ending is either that the emperor will be replaced by someone else, or the queen mother will retreat to the harem and no longer participate in politics.
This choice is very clear, either one or two.
Qin Yao smiled and said, "Brother, let's open up the pattern. In addition to one and two, we can also have three, or even four."
Qin Feng stood up and waved his hands repeatedly, saying that he couldn't imagine it and even a little bit couldn't accept it.
It's weird, too weird for a woman to be king.
Qin Yao looked at Qin Feng's reaction and sighed inwardly.
To be honest, ever since Xu Wenqing took the initiative to unfold her purpose to the world, she has admired this woman a little bit.
Her brother, a man with no vested interests, felt uncomfortable after hearing it.
Not to mention the old ministers in the court.
The pressure is probably unbearable for ordinary people.
It can be seen that Xu Wenqing has a strong ability to withstand pressure.
In the eyes of the court officials, if they let Xu Wenqing continue to be strong, they will not only worry about who will be the king.
There is also the question of whether the Sheng Kingdom is surnamed Xu or Baili.
If Xu Wenqing really achieves her goal, to which family will the throne be passed after a hundred years?
If this issue cannot be arranged well, then the world that has finally settled down will probably fall apart again.
The feudal imperial power system is fundamentally based on the firm maintenance of male dominance.
If Xu Wenqing wants to be king, she must not just make a test and satisfy the addiction of a woman being king.
She still had to fundamentally solve the system of the royal family's "family rule".
But judging from the current social productivity, it was not enough for Xu Wenqing to overthrow the existing system.
So she could only modify the inheritance system to the greatest extent.
The wife succeeded the husband, and the wife, daughter, and son had the right of inheritance.
Then the world would still belong to Baili.
Judging from the current situation of the struggle between the two forces, this was already the most moderate solution that would not destroy the existing distribution of interests.
Even though Qin Yao's intuition told her that Xu Wenqing wanted more than this.
But judging from the limited lifespan of humans, Xu Wenqing could only go this far before he died.
Now, whenever Qin Yao thought of Xu Wenqing, she felt very complicated.
On the one hand, she admired her courage and determination to change the whole world.
On the other hand, she actually didn't like this extreme method of using any means to achieve her goal, sacrificing others or even herself.
But some people also said that as long as there is change, there will be bloodshed and sacrifice.
So, all merits and demerits will be left to future generations to judge.
Qin Feng turned around Qin Yao's room several times and finally stopped.
But looking at his tangled expression, he probably still needs to digest the amount of information Qin Yao gave him today.
Qin Feng asked: "Did you tell Liu Ji these words? Does he know everything?"
Qin Yao shook her head, "I haven't told him."
Qin Feng was about to breathe a sigh of relief when he heard Qin Yao continue to add: "But he must have guessed it."
"Liu Ji is actually not useless. He is the kind of person who can adapt to new things and new environments the fastest, so no matter where he is placed, he can live well."
"Of course, this person's flaws are also very fatal. He can only take care of himself and live well."
Qin Feng: Then why don't you divorce your husband?
But he just thought about it and didn't dare to say it.
Because the next moment, his sister was bewitched by Liu Ji, the foxy woman, and didn't want to leave.
The brother and sister exchanged messages and returned to the main hall.
The food was served on the table, and the aroma was fragrant, waiting for the two to sit on the table.
Liu Ji hurriedly invited his brother-in-law to sit down, and pulled a stool for his wife, and sat next to her.
Everyone sat down at the table.
Let's eat!
Qin Yao drank the hot soup brought by Liu Ji while eating the meat he had picked out of the bones.
Look at Liu Ji's handsome face that has become more and more delicate, and his legs are raised under the table and shaking up and down.
Just three words, beautiful!
Qin Feng watched secretly and sighed in his heart.
But his sister, he has to pamper her even if he kneels!
It happened that he had to go to various places before the New Year, and Qin Feng planned to bring Liu Ji with him.
This excited Liu Ji, and at night he ran to Qin Yao's room with hot water for foot washing and spoke well of his uncle for a full quarter of an hour.
However, after saying all the good things, when it was time for Qin Yao to go to bed, he had to leave.
Liu Ji secretly gritted his teeth, stared fiercely at the bed covered with fox fur, and secretly swore - I will spend the night here sooner or later!
Qin Yao narrowed her eyes dangerously: "Huh? Why don't you leave?"
Sensing the chill hidden under the lazy expression, Liu Ji smiled twice, "My lady, have a rest."
He quickly carried the foot washing basin out of the room, blew out the candlestick, and closed the door considerately.
Liu Ji stood outside the door, looking at the room behind him, and sighed regretfully.
He paused for a moment, thinking that his uncle would take him to meet those dignitaries tomorrow, he became excited again, and left with joyful steps. (End of this chapter)
