The Princess’s Inner Thoughts Were Overheard by Her Emperor Father

Chapter 178: Domestic Violence Re-Sentencing!

"The wives of scholars all know that their husband is their heaven. Our family is rebelling!"

"The empress of the harem has rebelled. Will she even beat the emperor?"

"Where's the law! Master Qingtian, you have to make the decision for me!"

Chen Dazhu refused to leave no matter what, and refused to let the people in the Yamen ask a doctor for treatment. He just wanted to make trouble in front of the Yamen with his body covered with scars.

More and more common people and scholars gathered here.

"According to the law, if a wife beats her husband, she will be imprisoned for one year."

"But it wasn't his mother-in-law who beat him. It was the emperor who ordered Concubine Liu to beat him."

Everyone was talking about it, some were sensible, and some couldn't stand the idea of ​​a woman hitting a man.

"Chen Dazhu should make a big fuss. This is because the empress of the harem is wrong. What kind of crime did he, Chen Dazhu, commit? Didn't he just beat his own mother-in-law and ask for her money for sewing clothes?"

"When this woman marries a man, she belongs to the man's family!" Even older women said this.

The Ji sisters all felt creepy.

They are both women, but they still speak for men.

But there are still many elderly women like this, and many of them are families with sons.

"If my daughter-in-law is so fierce, refuses to give me money, and calls for someone to beat her, I will divorce her immediately! What a sin she has done, marrying a loser!"

Chen Dazhu's daughter-in-law looked pale and shaky even when she stood next to Liu Channiang.

The palace maid Qiuli immediately looked over with her hands on her hips, "Old lady, why don't you ask my mother-in-law why she beat him?"

"Chen Dazhu beat his wife. We all saw it just now. She didn't beat her even once. It was all his own fault!" Qiuli spoke quickly.

"Isn't it normal to hit a wife?"

"Who hasn't been beaten a few times? I don't believe it."

"Those lazy bitches just need a lesson... they won't do anything unless they're beaten."

A bunch of men immediately started talking to each other.

They didn't dare to bump into Concubine Liu, but they dared to gather around the corner and hide in the crowd to speak to Chen Dazhu.

Liu Channiang closed her eyes. Only now did she understand why her daughter often said that there was only a little progress in improving the status of women.

If the women of Jingguo want to stand up, there are still many difficulties ahead.

However, she is not afraid!

No matter how difficult the road is, she will keep going!

Move forward a little today, move forward a little tomorrow, and one day you will be able to do it!

Liu Channiang thought about it, pursed her lips and looked at Li Fuyin in the capital, "Not only will I beat him today, I will also beat him tomorrow."

Chen Dazhu stared.

Liu Channiang refused to give in, "If he beats women again in the future, and you don't put him in jail and treat him like a beating on the street, I will continue to beat him to do justice to God."

"good!"

"! Well said, empress!" A group of female sewing workers shouted enthusiastically, and Chen Dazhu's wife's eyes turned red.

The Ji sisters held hands, but they looked at Concubine Liu with admiration but worry.

If this matter gets too big, I'm afraid Emperor Jingguo won't be able to save Concubine Liu.

Moreover, this was Jingguo, and their grandfather could not speak.

The sisters of the Ji family really couldn't bear that such a good lady would be punished in the future, and they were all nervous for her.

"Empress, you are embarrassing me. According to the laws of the previous dynasty, there are few punishments for a husband to beat his wife." Li Fuyin lowered his voice, with a look of embarrassment and embarrassment on his face.

Liu Channiang snorted.

There was a scholar next to him, and Lang Lang said, "Master Fu Yin, the student thinks that the empress is not wrong. This can be regarded as the empress discovering an omission in the laws of our court."

"Why are men not guilty of the same crimes as women when they break the law? Why are women sentenced to heavy punishment for beating their husbands, while men who are beaten to their wives are given light sentences."

The scholar’s ​​voice was open and he said, “Students think this is wrong and this method should be revised.”

"Hey, where's the big fool from?"

"I'm laughing so hard... I'm so stupid from reading! Do you know better than Master Qingtian?"

"Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand. The law says that if a wife is aggressive, she should be punished by beating her." Not only common men but also scholars stood up to refute.

"This means that the housewife is tough and unruly, and the husband beats her to educate her and teach her to become a good person! You are not married, so stop talking nonsense!"

Immediately, the scholar who suggested that there was something wrong with the law was heavily scolded, surrounded and reprimanded, and he became a black sheep among men.

Ji Qiuyue looked over, glanced at her, and pulled off her sister's sleeve, "Sister, is that the idiot who made a bet with us?"

When Ji Chunyue looked at it, her expression was blank.

The person who spoke up for the woman's injustice turned out to be the idiot with the birthmark on his forehead, Zheng Qiru.

"I didn't expect that, miss, he's not too bad." Maid Madoka couldn't help but sigh.

"Master Fu Yin, please consider what the student said." Zheng Qiru bowed and saluted.

Before Li Fuyin could speak, the people next to him had already spat at Zheng Qiru.

"Go, go, read your book!"

"The imperial examination is about to take place. You are looking for trouble!"

"Who is he? No wonder he can't get a wife!"

"Enemies often cause mischief!"

The sisters of the Ji family felt their chests rise and fall, and when they saw that Zheng Qiru was indeed scolded, his face turned red, and they felt even more angry and sad for him.

Liu Channiang also noticed the scholar and was about to speak when a fast horse appeared in the distance.

Then the officer immediately turned over, landed on the ground, and walked quickly to Fu Yin's side.

"But there is news from Dali Temple?" Li Fuyin was overjoyed when he saw it.

He was afraid that the matter would get serious and involve the emperor and empress, which would be difficult to deal with, so he had sent people to find the minister of Dali Temple in a hurry just now.

Now that the messenger was back, Li Fuyin felt that he was finally saved.

"Did the Minister of Dali Temple say anything? How should we deal with it?"

The official nodded quickly, but his expression was subtle, and he leaned close to Li Fuyin's ear to speak.

"What's going on? Lord Fuyin, you have to make the decision for me!" Chen Dazhu was lying on the ground, his skin torn and his flesh exposed, screaming.

But just as he finished shouting, he saw that Li Fuyin's face changed drastically after hearing the messenger's words.

Chen Dazhu suddenly felt bad, his eyes rolled, and he immediately threatened, "Lord Fuyin, you can't make the decision, I will go to the door of the criminal department to cry tomorrow-"

"Shut up!" Li Fuyin's expression suddenly darkened, and he shouted at him angrily.

"Come here, put Chen Dazhu, who beat his wife, in jail immediately!"

"!"

"???"

"What?"

"Ah? I was beaten, and you put me in jail? Lord Fuyin, are you sure?" Chen Dazhu almost suspected that he had heard it wrong.

Li Fuyin's expression became even uglier, with a gloomy face, and soon turned his gaze to the onlookers outside the yamen.

"The emperor heard about this."

"He was shocked. He had never known that ordinary men had the violent habit of beating their wives in the palace."

"Your Majesty, severely punish Zhang Wei, the Minister of the Dali Temple who spoke for Chen Dazhu, remove him from his post for investigation, and fine him twelve months' salary."

The prefect's words made the men and women who were making trouble on the whole street seem to be strangled.

Even Chen Dazhu himself was stunned.

"What? You are being investigated for speaking up for Chen Dazhu?"

The prefect looked calm and looked at Chen Dazhu, "Because of you, the emperor knows that men who beat their wives were given lighter punishments or even no sentences."

"I denounce the unfair laws of the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice!"

"Order, the Dali Temple, the Ministry of Justice, and the prefects of all states to review old cases and re-examine all cases of men who beat their wives from now on."

"And re-enact regulations to temporarily sentence women as if they beat their husbands."

"!"

"......!"

The prefect looked at everyone, "Everyone, the emperor is very sad, but fortunately, Concubine Liu discovered Chen Dazhu's bad deeds, so he was able to correct his mistakes in time and give justice to the bullied women in the world and the laws of Jingguo."

After the prefect finished speaking, he gave his subordinates a look.

Chen Dazhu was immediately thrown to the ground, and in an instant he was surrounded by other men.

"Go to hell, Chen Dazhu, you idiot!"

"Why did you beat up the woman in front of Concubine Liu? We can't beat her now-cough cough cough."

A round of punches and kicks landed on Chen Dazhu.

The noise startled the Ji sisters.

Will the Emperor of Jingguo admit his mistakes?

Give justice to all women in the world?

From now on, men of Jingguo can't beat their wives and daughters at home.

The Ji sisters were shocked and it was hard to describe in words.

"Miss Ji, I met you again!" Zheng Qiru was relieved to see that the matter was settled. He turned around and found the Ji sisters, his eyes were full of joy, "Are you okay?"

"Are you really planning to join the fried dough sticks shop?"

This made Liu Chan's mother's eyes move over.

"You are Chu Guoshuang...cough." Liu Chan's mother almost called out her daughter's name for the sisters.

"Are you the women who want to join the breakfast shop?"

Liu Channiang smiled gently at the Ji sisters, "Are you willing to talk to me today?"

The Ji sisters looked at the bright golden dragon whip in her hand, the blood on it from beating the violent husband in the street, and her upright figure, and their hearts were filled with blood.

"Please, Madam!"
