Chapter 1368 [Updated on August 12] I Will Protect You

The hard work and dedication a while ago, as well as the cold war during the breakup with fourth master, all turned into sweet fruits at this moment, and they were displayed heavily in front of her.

This is her reward for leading the rebellion.

It was the fruit of the joint efforts of her and fourth master!

And the notice stated that the decision was made on July 12th, and now it is July 20th.

It shows that the imperial court has made a decision long ago, but the news only reached Suzhou.

Ruoyin's lips trembled with excitement.

She no longer knew what words to use to express her excitement and excitement.

Just with tears in my eyes.

But the corners of her eyes and mouth are upturned.

What makes her happy is that this unequal law that does not protect women at all has completely changed since then!

Smiling with tears in my eyes is the most touching.

And this touching moment happened to fall into fourth master's eyes.

But he just looked at her and didn't say anything.

Although it was still not possible for men and women to be equal, Ruoyin was already content and satisfied with the result.

After all, in a society where men are strong and women are weak for thousands of years, it is not possible to be completely equal in a short while.

As long as women are bullied, they no longer have nowhere to complain, but are protected by laws and regulations.

Ruoyin still remembered that when she was in the Forbidden City, she felt annoyed by this law that ignored women.

At that time, she thought in her heart.

If given the chance, she must change this status quo.

At that time, she still felt that her idea was a bit absurd.

Because as Si Ye said, it has been like this for thousands of years, and it is so difficult to change.

Now, it has finally come true!

It seems that everyone should not throw away ideas or dreams that they think are absurd, or even impossible.

Maybe one day, you will finally be able to achieve it!

At this moment, the people on the side were divided into two levels to discuss.

"What the hell is this? I can't hit women anymore."

"That's right, girls still have the right to divorce."

"The degree of beating people and breaking the law is the same as that of our men."

"My daughter-in-law, you can say whatever you want, isn't it okay to slander a few words, and violate the laws of the Qing Dynasty!"

"It's the other way around!"

"Don't you know that a woman's lack of talent is a virtue, and she said that she should be educated for women."

"I think it is possible to promote women's labor, but it is not good to promote women's business."

"Yes, women are all educated and earn money to support their families. What do we men do? Who will take care of the elderly and children in the family? Is it possible that we men will take care of them?"

"What about equal wages? Our elders are not the same strength as women. In addition, women have long hair, short knowledge, and worrying brain power. How can we earn the same money as us?"

"Today they dare to stand up and make money, but tomorrow they dare to throw money at us."

"If this goes on like this, sooner or later the world will belong to women!"

"Hey, what is written on it says that the emperor and the empress made the final decision. Aren't concubines in the harem not allowed to participate in politics?"

"Stupid, all the women have resisted and turned over. After becoming a country, the empress is of course the first to take the lead in rebelling. This is called taking the lead."

"You are looking for death, you actually talk about the empress behind your back."

"This is Suzhou, and it's not under the feet of the emperor. Suzhou is a hundred and eight thousand miles away from the capital. Besides, so what if you hear it? Are only women allowed to protest, and men are not allowed to protest? What's wrong with the world!"

These guys are worth two to five to eighty thousand...

However, it is the women who are completely different from this side.

It stands to reason that, under normal circumstances, women want to talk more than men.

But at this moment, the women onlookers didn't make much noise.

Because many women are illiterate.

They can only get some general information from the complaints of the men.

Fortunately, there was a literate girl among the crowd.

The girl was dressed like a lady.

A woman knew her and asked her about it.

She explained the situation on the notice to everyone.

As a result, the women who hadn't moved at all cheered happily one by one.

There are also some who are particularly excited, with red eyes, covering their mouths and standing there trembling and crying.

They used to be bullied and suffered a lot.

But he could only grit his teeth and bear it, unable to resist, and not qualified to resist.

And now, finally, these laws are in charge of them.

In the past, they could only bear the injustice silently and shed tears secretly. When the tears dried up, their whole life would be over.

But it's different now. From now on, if someone bullies them again, they don't have to cry secretly.

You can stand up boldly and resist those injustices!

For a while, the women talked in agreement.

"In the future, if my men hit me again, I'll just slap me back. If it doesn't work, I'll go to the yamen and sue him."

"Where can a man who beats a woman want? Let me tell you, just make up."

"That is, if they dare to beat us today, tomorrow we will make them unable to climb up!"

"After becoming a country, the queen empress is really a blessing for us to think about our women. She made the first protest for us and brought the dawn of women's status for thousands of years!"

"Yes, yes, woman, don't think about how much money a man can earn, you have to think about how much money you can earn, let alone, I have to earn money..."

Ruoyin looked at the content of the notice and listened to everyone's discussions, with mixed emotions in his heart.

"Let's go." Fourth master's deep voice brought her back to her thoughts.

Ruoyin let out an "um" in a weak mosquito voice.

She secretly wiped away her tears, then glanced around.

Fortunately, many women beside her were so excited that they wept bitterly, which made her appear to be very ordinary.

Then, she followed fourth master to the restaurant that Su Peisheng had booked in advance.

When they arrived at the restaurant, Xiaoer took them to the private room on the second floor.

After entering the private room, people began to serve dishes one after another.

When the dishes were ready, Fourth Master sent all the servants out with a wave of his hand.

He took a seat at the dinner table, and then waved casually to Ruoyin.

Ruoyin was about to move his chopsticks when he saw fourth master waving at her.

After a slight pause, she finally walked in front of him.

After approaching, fourth master took her into his arms and sat down.

"Tell me why your eyes are red just now."

"The concubine was moved by the report on her dedication, but what moved the concubine even more was that you announced to the world that this matter was decided by us together." She replied truthfully.

"..." The fourth master was silent for a few seconds, and then said: "I told you a long time ago that this matter is far from as simple as you think. Now it is announced to the world, but men are It’s not going to be taken lightly.”

"I know." She heard the protests of those men today.

And when he was in Yangzhou, didn't Wu Yunli use those protesters to assassinate her?

Just thinking about this, she felt her body being tightly held in the arms of the fourth master, "I know that you are not only doing it for the good of women, but also for the good of Qing Dynasty, and even more so for my own good."

Ruoyin: "..."

"You don't have to be afraid, as long as I am here, I will protect you well."

"Yeah." Ruoyin looked up and smiled shyly at him.

She believed this, because fourth master did this all the way.

"For this matter now, I am on the same line as you. No matter what the national policy is, you and I will advance and retreat together. No, we will take responsibility together. Well, then you will have half of this medal."

Ruoyin: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

It turned out that fourth master asked the court to declare her participation in the notice for this reason.

"Thank you? Thank you." Fourth master looked at her deeply.

Although his tone was flat, his expression was calm.

But Ruoyin still saw an unspoken ambiguity in his black pupils.

She swallowed her throat and said: "I, haven't I already played the maid for you, isn't it enough?"

Fourth Master: "..."

He didn't speak, but his eyes told her that it was not enough.

Facing Fourth Master's deep black pupils, Ruoyin tried to say, "You don't want me to be your personal servant girl, or the one who makes room for you?"
