Chapter 149 Is an Opportunity
Tonight should obviously be the wedding night for the two of them.
At this time, there was no charming atmosphere in the new house. Instead, it seemed like two kings were discussing important matters of family and country, and conspiring together for the country and the country.
There is a bit of relaxation and leisure in the solemnity.
"Jiang Yi should be a smart woman." Yan Li smiled faintly, "I wonder who she will accept to be the crown prince in the future?"
Mu Cang's eyebrows moved slightly, but his voice was calm: "She doesn't have a biological son of her own. She took you back, most likely because she wanted you to become the crown prince."
Yan Li frowned: "The Jin Kingdom also wants to welcome a queen?"
"All countries in the world respect the Southern Kingdom, but the princes and princesses of the Southern Kingdom have the right to inherit. Kings and dignitaries from other countries may not have some thoughts in their hearts." Mu Cang said lightly, "However, men are unwilling to give up their rights easily, and the princes are even less willing to let the princess share their rights. A piece of the pie, so no country has been able to successfully imitate the Southern Kingdom.”
The status of women in the South is higher than that of other countries, and the economy and military strength of the South are also stronger than those of other countries.
Therefore, many sages believe that the strength of the Southern Kingdom is due to the king's open-mindedness and tolerance towards women.
Other countries may be able to follow suit.
However, the intrigues between the princes of various countries are inherently cruel. If another princess is involved, the competition will only become more difficult.
Men are not willing to allow women the opportunity to dominate them.
So no one has succeeded in imitating it so far.
Yan Li leaned on the bedside in silence, with deep thoughts on her face: "This generation of queens from the Jin Kingdom is in power. If they really want to imitate the Southern Kingdom's system, this is obviously an opportunity."
The power lies in the hands of the queen, and the queen herself is a woman.
Yan Li is her only biological bloodline.
If she is determined to make her daughter the next leader of the Jin Kingdom, she can probably do it.
Of course, the final result depends on Yan Li's wishes.
"The four princes probably won't agree." Yan Li smiled casually, "The Emperor of Jin and the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs probably won't compromise easily."
"When the emperor granted the marriage, he told me about your mother." Mu Cang thought about it for a moment, "Later, I sent someone to check it out."
Yan Li raised his eyebrows: "For me?"
"Yes." Mu Cang nodded slowly, "If you choose to return to Jin, at least I will make sure that you will not be in danger after you return."
Yan Li looked soft: "Well, what did you find?"
"The current emperor of the Jin Dynasty has a dragon body that violates the law and is no longer enough to support the heavy government affairs." Mu Cang said in a deep tone, "All this may have something to do with Empress Jiang."
Yan Li was obviously surprised when he heard this: "Didn't you say that they have a good relationship as a couple?"
"In an imperial family, the relationship between husband and wife is far less important than power." Mu Cang looked coldly, "Empress Jiang has been holding on to power all these years. Outsiders say that the emperor and the empress are very affectionate, and the princes also believe that the emperor is weak. "It is Empress Jiang who supports the entire country. Naturally, Empress Jiang has the final say as to who will be the crown prince in the future."
However, in the imperial family, power is still above all else.
Mu Cang believed that Empress Jiang had feelings for Emperor Wen, and that Emperor Wen still trusted and loved Empress Jiang. Otherwise, even if he was weak, he would not be able to watch Empress Jiang take over the power of regent.
It's just a matter of whether the relationship between the young couple that has been together till now is more important, or the weight of power.
No one knows.
Yan Li didn't speak, leaning quietly against the bedside, her cold and picturesque eyebrows slightly lowered, not knowing what she was thinking in her heart.
Power does matter.
If the emperor has no real power, he is equivalent to a puppet. He cannot take charge of major affairs of the government. Even if a treacherous villain is in charge, he will be powerless.
As we all know, women tend to be emotional.
In fact, Xihe originally disagreed with this point. She felt that women were just severely suppressed and not without talent.
But there is one fact that cannot be refuted.
Most women who grew up in a system where men are superior to women have the concept of respecting their husbands, so they naturally believe that they are dependent on their husbands.
There are very few people who dare to break away from conventional notions and challenge male supremacy.
Regardless of whether Empress Jiang was really ambitious or because Emperor Wen was weak, Yan Li truly admired her. m.
I admire her courage and courage, as well as her intelligence and decisiveness.
